Chapter 680: Mrs. Peng, Killed?
Miss Peng Er complained even more about General Peng in her heart.
"A poor pariah, why did he withdraw from Miss Ben's marriage? If you want to retreat, it is time for our Peng family to retreat!
Father is really, why didn't he arrest their family and beat them up? So that they know and know, provoke the fate of our Peng family! β
Her father is just confused and stubborn, and he can only get around!
If her father had listened to her earlier, why would she have the reputation of being divorced!
But after thinking about it, this is a good thing for her, saving her from having to make a big fuss and convince her father.
A few subordinates looked at each other and felt that it was useless to say more.
"Knock knock!"
The sound of the wooden plank slapping made Miss Peng Er come back to her senses instantly.
"Don't nail it, don't nail it, you go and talk to your father, just say I'm obedient, don't make trouble."
Now that she doesn't have to marry that poor ghost, and she doesn't have her mother to support her, she will definitely suffer if she continues to make trouble.
It's better to think about how to get your mother back.
The Peng family finally quieted down completely, and both General Peng and Grand Prince Peng breathed a sigh of relief.
Whether it was the Peng family, the Hao Wangfu, or Jun Lingyun and Chu Yunxi, they all thought that this farce would end here.
Unexpectedly, there is an even bigger turmoil waiting for them.
Three days later, there was a solemnity in the palace and court.
Fu Gonggong sang: "Something to start, nothing to retreat fromββ"
The Shangshu of the Criminal Department made up his mind, and was the first to come out of the ranks, and said:
"Your Majesty, yesterday night, there was a murder in the suburbs of Beijing."
The other ministers said in their hearts, this criminal department is making more and more fuss.
It's just a murder, how can it be worth bringing it to the court and playing with the emperor?
Jun Lingyun is slightly eyebrows, the suburbs of Beijing? Murder, how can it be so coincidental? Just listen to the criminal department Shangshu continued:
"Weichen shouldn't have bothered the emperor because of a case. It's just that the deceased in this case, Mrs. Peng, has a special identity.
Her father, who had a meritorious service in saving the driver, was posthumously awarded the title of Baron Zhaolie by Emperor Xuancheng, but he was a loyal martyr. β
The courtiers all looked at the Shangshu of the Criminal Department, no wonder he would report the matter to the emperor.
The deceased has such an identity, and the royal family should indeed show its attitude and severely punish the murderer to show the emperor's favor.
But this Mrs. Peng, they seem to have heard of it?
Could it be that Mrs. Peng who wanted to take advantage of Haowangfu recently, but was humiliated by Haowangfu?
The matter of posting notices in the Haowang Mansion is known to almost everyone in the capital. How could these well-informed ministers not know.
Jun Lingyun also frowned slightly, is it really that Mrs. Peng? Actually dead?
Was it the Peng family's own doing, or was it someone else? He asked:
"How did you die?"
Shangshu of the Criminal Department was waiting for Jun Lingyun to ask a question, and when he heard this, he immediately replied:
"Back to the emperor, Mrs. Peng, he was killed by a sword, but he killed him!"
Jun Lingyun looked at the Shangshu of the Criminal Department, if it was the past, the Shangshu of the Criminal Department would definitely finish the matter in one breath.
How do you ask a question today, squeeze a sentence?
"Got a clue?"
The criminal department Shangshu suddenly knelt down.
"Your Majesty, Weichen is brave and wants to invite a few royal people involved in the case to cooperate with the investigation!"
The other ministers gasped, he was really daring!
Without evidence, dare to suspect that the royal man is on the throne?
The Shangshu of the Criminal Department said:
"Your Majesty, I inspected Madame Peng's wounds last night and found that the sword that injured her was very consistent with the swords of the royal guards."
The courtiers were shocked, this murder case actually involved the royal guards?
Who is the Criminal Department Shangshu suspicious?
Could it be that he is suspicious of Haowangfu? After all, the entanglement between the Haowang Mansion and the Peng family's daughters is still spreading in the capital!
The courtiers cautiously glanced at Jun Zifeng's expression, but saw that he was calm. For a while, I was a little uncertain.
Jun Lingyun's eyes were slightly cold, the murder weapon was the sword of the royal guard?
Whether it was Chu Yunxi, Junzi Feng and Su Yan, it was impossible for them to carry him behind his back and commit murder!
Who could it be, behind the scenes? Jun Lingyun's voice was also a little colder.
"Which royal man do you want to investigate?"
The Shangshu of the Criminal Department withstood the pressure, but still said it out of his mouth.
"Your Majesty, Weichen heard that three days ago, Mrs. Peng and her daughter once boarded the door of King Hao's Mansion and had some quarrels with the princess."
Jun Zifeng, who had been listening calmly, suddenly turned around, his eyes slanted, and fell on the face of Shangshu of the Criminal Department.
"What does the criminal department still mean is that Mrs. Peng's death was done by someone sent by my mother?"
The criminal department Shangshu tried to straighten his back.
"Don't be excited, the princess is just one of the suspects, the lower officials just want to find out the real culprit and not let the martyrs die in vain."
"Really? Then do you know, my lady, why did you quarrel with Mrs. Napeng?
Isn't that notice I wrote clear enough? The book of the criminal department can't be understood, right? Do you want to follow the example of Mrs. Napeng and bring shame upon yourself? β
Self-inflicted humiliation? The secretary of the criminal department was a little unable to get off the stage for a while.
He didn't expect that Junzi Feng, who had always been gentle, would suddenly speak so sharply. For him, the secretary of the criminal department, he is not merciless at all.
But he has already taken this step, he can't take it back, and he doesn't want to take it back.
"Mrs. Peng, after all, is a martyr, and she has meritorious service to the country."
Junzi Feng sneered:
"It is her father who has a meritorious service to the country! What does it have to do with her? Enjoying the shade of her ancestors, she should have known gratitude and self-cultivation, but she was proud, after being so loyal, she was really embarrassed by the martyrs! β
The book of the Criminal Department is a righteous and strict word. But the bad deeds of the victim, Mrs. Peng, were pointed out so clearly by Jun Zifeng, and his righteous and stern words were somewhat less righteous.
"No matter what, in Mrs. Peng's hand, there is also a gold medal from Emperor Xuancheng himself, not to mention that she is not guilty of death!
Now that someone has quietly killed Mrs. Peng directly, he just doesn't take the majesty of the royal family into account, he has to find out the murderer and correct the law! β
As soon as his words fell, Jun Zifeng said coldly:
"What does that have to do with my wife? As the secretary of the Criminal Department, you don't want to find the real murderer, but you want to pour dirty water on the head of our Haowang Mansion, what is your intention? β
The courtiers had never seen such a fierce prince of Hao.
They all speculated in their hearts, what was the purpose of the Shangshu of the Criminal Department to offend the Haowang Mansion so much?
It can't really be upright and selfless, right?
Just listen to the Shangshu of the Criminal Department:
"Shizi, Xia Guan has already said that Shizi Concubine is just one of the suspects. Since the princess is above board, what is she afraid of? β
"What about the second one?"
These words were asked by Jun Lingyun, who was sitting at the top, and in an instant, the condensation aura spread in the main hall, making people shudder.
Shangshu of the Criminal Department, who was in the center of this cold air, took several breaths before he could stabilize himself, and plucked up the courage to say:
"Your Majesty, Weichen also heard that before, Miss Peng Er had offended and offended the queen in front of the world's pharmacy!"
