Ma Qingshan, who was originally standing trembling and listening to the two bigwigs' words, suddenly turned pale and couldn't help but sway.

This somewhat unusual little action was immediately discovered by Emperor Jingren.

"Ma Qingshan, you say!"

"Tell me, how did Wei Cheng die? Where is the murderer now? ”

Ma Qingshan knelt on the ground with a plop, glanced at Jin Dong beside him, and saw that he didn't say anything, as if he didn't mean to help at all, just wanted to speak, but heard a few coughs from Jin Dong's mouth.

"Master Ma, you can't be confused, if you remember wrong, you're going to die!"

Ma Qingshan suddenly felt a chill rushing to his head, whether it was Jin Dong or Du Lun, he couldn't afford to offend, let alone keep his nephew Ma Ruyi's career while currying favor with the two!

"Alas......"

"Grandpa Wei was ...... It's the ...... who was killed."

Jin Dong shook his head slightly and did not speak.

Du Lun, who was beside Emperor Jingren, immediately stood up, "Your Majesty, the slave knows that this matter is not simple, Jin Da kept saying that Wei Cheng wanted to kill him, but why did it be Gonggong Wei who died in the end?" ”

The emperor raised his hand and motioned for Ma Qingshan to continue.

"How was Wei Cheng killed? Where is the murderer now? ”

Ma Qingshan gritted his teeth, "Wei Chen's nephew Ma Ruyi, met Father-in-law Wei in Wanhualou on the day of the crime, and was invited to the private room to drink, and found that the meal was drugged during the banquet......"

"So, your nephew is dead, too?" Emperor Jingren said with a gloomy face.

"No, there is no ......, only Gonggong Wei is dead!" Ma Qingshan waved his hand again and again.

"Why?"

"Because of the ......, because the meal is spring...... Aphrodisiac! ”

"And it's very powerful...... It's huge! ”

"When Ruyi and Wei Gonggong were in a daze, they unconsciously did that thing, but because Wei Gonggong was in poor health, he didn't survive, so he unfortunately died......"

Powerful ...... Aphrodisiac?

The corners of Emperor Jingren's mouth twitched, I don't know whether he wanted to laugh or be angry, he knew Jin Dong, with Jin Dong's personality and conduct, I am afraid that the enemy who killed his father was standing in front of him, and he had to solve the problem in an upright way, and it was impossible to come up with such a bad way to give an aphrodisiac to a eunuch!

This point even Du Lun, who has always been hostile to Jin Dong in the court, can't talk about it.

Du Lun's old face on the side turned red, he never expected that Wei Cheng would die so badly and be ...... alive by a man

Alas!

I saw that his eyes suddenly misted, and his knees fell to his knees, "Your Majesty, you have to make decisions for Wei Cheng!" ”

"He has served His Majesty loyally all his life, and in the end he ended up with such a fate, and he was ordered to come to Qingcheng to collect cloth, which is clearly someone who despises the court and openly provokes His Majesty's majesty!"

Emperor Jingren raised his hand and smoothed the corners of his lips with two strokes of his beard, and suddenly turned his head to look at Jin Dong, "Lord Jin, you just said that on the day of the crime, you were also in Wanhualou?" ”

Jin Dong nodded slightly, "Exactly!" ”

"What are you doing in Wanhualou? I remember, you never have a habit of looking for flowers and asking willows, what's wrong? Out of Tianjing City, have you changed your temperament? ”

"Your Majesty clearly investigated, Wei Chen was invited by a young talent in a green city that day to go to Wanhualou to admire the moon and chant poetry, during which he was told by an Oiran there that Wei Cheng wanted to use her hand to plot against Wei Chen!" Jin Dong hurriedly replied.

"Young talent...... Emperor Jingren frowned slightly, "The young talent in Jin Da's mouth, is it called Wen Chen?" ”

Jin Dong was stunned, and hurriedly knelt down and bowed, "Back to Your Majesty, Wen Chen and Yu Miaoyu have been with Weichen during the crime, and they have no time to commit the crime!" ”

"Oh......"

Ma Qingshan, who was on the side, suddenly spoke at this time, "Your Majesty, in fact, I can't say for sure, according to Wei Chen's nephew Ma Ruyi's recollection, that Wen Chen seems to have been in close contact with Lingyu in Wanhua Tower, since there is a problem with Lingyu's identity, and he also said those words to Lord Jin that he doesn't know whether they are true or false, Wei Chen thinks that the two of them may really have something to do with the death of Wei Gonggong!" ”

"Who is Lingyu?" Emperor Jingren asked unhappily, the names of each one made him a little confused.

"Lingyu is the flower name of Yu Miaoyu, the daughter of the criminal official Yu Qian, in Wanhualou!"

Jin Dong suddenly turned his head and stared at Ma Qingshan with a serious face, "Master Ma, if there is no evidence, don't talk nonsense, you will lose your head!" ”

In front of him, Du Lun immediately retorted, "Ma Qingshan, even if you tell what you know, our family wants to see, in front of Your Majesty, who dares to ask for your head!" ”

After that, he glanced at Jin Dong provocatively.

Ma Qingshan originally thought that it was to divert the attention of the saint and change the identity of Ma Ruyi's "murderer" into a victim, so that there might be a turning point in the future.

At this time, he didn't care about Jin Dong, and then said, "Your Majesty, do you say that Wen Chen and Lingyu colluded with each other, taking advantage of Lord Jin's love for talents, creating alibi evidence for them, and at the same time bringing the Duke of Wei to Wanhua Tower, and then the accomplices will wait for the opportunity to assassinate ......"

"Ma Qingshan, have you said enough?!" Jin Dong looked annoyed, and he had a feeling of being betrayed.

Earlier, in order to protect Ma Ruyi's reputation and find a reason for himself to go to Wucheng to check the accounts, he agreed with Ma Qingshan's idea of pressing the matter first, planning to get the evidence of Wei Cheng's corruption, and then kill the eunuch party by surprise!

I never thought that Ma Qingshan would choose to defect at this time, he was insatiable and contented, and tried in vain to get Ma Ruyi out of the case!

Emperor Jingren glanced at Jin Dong coldly, and raised his hand towards Ma Qingshan, "Go on." ”

Ma Qingshan, who was encouraged, was even more energetic, "Weichen speculated that Lingyu had a hatred for the court and His Majesty because his father was arrested and imprisoned, so he lurked in Wanhualou and took the opportunity to bewitch Wen Chen, and the two conspired to kill the court officials to vent their selfish desires!" ”

In this way, not only took the blame out of Ma Ruyi, but also did not clearly side with Jin Dong or Duren, and did not participate in the fight between the two parties, Ma Qingshan was complacent about his wisdom for a while.

Jin Dong on the side was angry and anxious, in order to do things better afterwards, he didn't explicitly let Ma Ruyi leave a confession, this kid said at that time that it was Wei Cheng who coveted his beauty and gave him the medicine himself!

I didn't expect that I was soft-hearted before, but now it has become Ma Qingshan's reliance!

Although Jin Dong also had doubts about Wen Chen and Lingyu, he didn't want them to do this in his heart, but now even if he wants to protect Wen Chen, I'm afraid he won't be able to do it......

"Ma Qingshan, the hydraulic loom invented by Wen Chen, isn't it all your credit in the end? Do you stab you in the back like this for the sake of fame and fortune? Jin Dong said hatefully.

Ma Qingshan acted as a reason, "Lord Jin, there is actually one thing that Xia Guan has never told you......

"You also know that Wen Chen was a descendant of Tan Mansion before he made a career, and not long ago, Xia Guan was invited to Tan Mansion, and the eldest son of the Tan family took out evidence, saying that the hydraulic loom was his idea, and it was accidentally plagiarized by Wen Chen......"

"Nonsense! Then Tan Feifei is a rich man, how can He De make such an ingenious machine?! Jin Dong scolded dissatisfied.

Ma Qingshan sighed, "At first, Xia Guan didn't believe it, but recently Tan Feifei made a steam loom, saying that even if there is no water to destroy, it can be woven with extremely fast efficiency like a hydraulic loom. ”

"Therefore, I have to suspect that Wen Chen before was indeed plagiarizing Tan Feifei's creativity!"
