Chapter 374: Assassination Case 9 of No. 25 House
The death of scholar Zhongju made several of his friends sad and regretful, and at the same time aroused Mu Yixing's fighting spirit to investigate the case.
But at the same time, there is no shortage of people like Jun Jian who are jealous and envious, and when they heard the news of the death of Zhongju, a scholar who was a good scholar, they secretly applauded.
The same rice raises a hundred kinds of people, this is the eternal truth!
It's just that the invigilators of all the examination institutes in the examination room of the Gong Academy, after conducting a detailed search of the number of the examination institutes in their charge, did not find anything abnormal.
According to the advice of the invigilator Xu Zheng, a lot of unboiled decoctions or pills were collected, and doctors in Shangjing were invited to come and help with the inspection.
The test results that took a lot of time were still not abnormal, and Mu Yirong and Ruicao, who were investigating in the examination room of the Gongyuan, fell into a clueless predicament for a while.
At the same time, in the court, the hostile forces of the eldest prince who learned that the scholar Zhongju had died in the examination room immediately participated in the performance of the eldest prince who had no talent and no virtue, and he was not yet the crown prince, so he replaced the current holy sacrifice, and the name was not right, and it angered the gods, so such a thing happened.
Emperor Xuanyuan has ascended the throne since then, and he has never encountered such a thing, the candidates who participated in the Enke examination were assassinated in the examination room, which was simply insulting, and regarded the national law as nothing, so angry that he had to tremble, and ordered the Ministry of Punishment and Dali Temple to strictly investigate the case.
Liu Shicheng, the secretary of the Criminal Department, has not yet gone to the Criminal Department to order, and he doesn't know what the situation is, but he has heard that the murderer has been arrested, and he will immediately rush to the Criminal Department for interrogation.
His daughter Liu Qingyan and the eldest prince only got married two days ago, but suddenly such a thing happened, the opposing forces in the DPRK and China, took the opportunity to carry out a fierce attack on the eldest prince, which caused the current saint to be very displeased, as the father-in-law of the eldest prince, he naturally wanted to help resolve this crisis as soon as possible.
Also, when his daughter Liu Qingyan returns to the door today, he must give a good advice, let Liu Qingyan comfort the eldest prince, and take the opportunity to make the two cultivate and enhance their relationship.
At such times, a man will deeply remember the woman who comforted him!
The eldest prince is the best candidate for the future prince in Liu Shicheng's heart, and since he wants to ascend to the throne, the future harem concubines are naturally indispensable.
Although Liu Qingyan is the wife, who can guarantee that the wife will be able to become the queen in the future.
As the most loyal guardian and supporter of the Great Prince, Liu Shicheng, in the midst of many slanderous voices of the Great Prince, promised Emperor Xuanyuan that he would make the murderer confess to the law as soon as possible.
Liu Shicheng, who did what he said, immediately rushed to the Criminal Department after leaving the court and interrogated Tao Dasheng.
Tao Dasheng, who shouted injustice again and again, did not admit to killing the scholar Zhongju, saying that the two of them were good brothers who drank tea together and talked about their ideals and ambitions, and he would never do anything to kill his brother.
Liu Shicheng slapped the startling wood "crackling", and the table was almost smashed by him, scolding Tao Dasheng for opening his mouth, many people have proved that Tao Dasheng and the scholar Zhongju had a dispute before, and he also chased and beat the scholar Zhongju on the street, so that Tao Dasheng had to deny it, and quickly confessed his guilt, otherwise he would be sentenced.
No matter how intimidating and questioning Liu Shicheng was, Tao Dasheng kept shaking his head, indicating that he definitely did not kill the scholar Zhongju.
Although he did have an argument with the scholar Zhongju before, they didn't know each other. 186 Chinese Network
On this point, the wooden waiter of Dali Temple and the female pavilion chief Ruicao can both testify.
Hearing that Tao Dasheng moved Mu Yirong and Ruicao out, Liu Shicheng's face became more and more ugly, and asked Tao Dasheng what was the relationship between these two people, and what was the relationship between these two people and the death of scholar Zhongju?
Tao Dasheng, who was worried about causing trouble to Mu Yirong and Seocho, hurriedly told the truth that Mu Yirong and Seocao were on the street before the Dao to dissuade him from having a dispute with the scholar Zhongju.
Liu Shicheng, whose brows were furrowed even tighter, ordered Tao Dasheng to be taken back to the prison from Xin first, and then invited Mu Yirong and Ruicao to the Criminal Department.
Mu Yirong and Ruicao, who failed to find clues in the examination room, were about to go back to Dali Temple to see the results of the autopsy.
In the hall of the front yard of the Criminal Department, Liu Shicheng, who was thinking thousands of times, immediately squeezed out an easy-going smile on his face when he saw Mu Yirong and Ruicao entering. But no matter how it looks, it is very unnatural, like a big bad wolf who is trying to eat its prey and insists on squeezing out a smile at its prey.
Ruicao has always been unimpressed by Master Liu's attitude towards her, and when she saw Master Liu's awkward look, she just pretended not to see it, while Mu Yirong greeted Master Liu politely and thoughtfully.
Liu Shicheng, who looked like a Shibo, hurriedly sat down Mu Yirong and Ruicao, and ordered someone to serve refreshments.
Ruicao, who was worried about Tao Dasheng in his heart, immediately gave Mu Yirong a look, and asked him to directly talk to Liu Shicheng to clarify the words, so that he could go to the prison to see Tao Dasheng. If Tao Dasheng can be bailed out, it will be in vain.
Although he is young, Mu Yirong, who has been rolling in officialdom for many years, naturally knows that Liu Shicheng will never let Tao Dasheng, the only suspect, out of the prison of the Criminal Department in order to shake off the muddy water splashed on the eldest prince's body as soon as possible.
But if you go in and have a visit, you should still be able to!
So, he said straight to the point that he wanted to go to the prison of the Criminal Department and make some inquiries about the suspect Tao Dasheng.
Between Mu Yirong's careful words, Liu Shicheng, who heard something, smiled.
"The suspect is familiar with Mu Shilang, and it seems to be true. It's just that Mu Shilang's request, I'm afraid it's not easy to handle?"
"Why?"
Seocho, who asked this, stared at Liu Shicheng with his eyes, and Liu Shicheng was very uncomfortable stared at by Seocho's sharp eyes that shone through the light of a beast, turned his gaze to Mu Yirong, and pulled a far-fetched smile.
"Virtuous nephew, you didn't go to the early court today, and you didn't know that someone involved this case in the innocent prince. The generous, benevolent and filial prince shared his majesty's worries, prayed for the students, and took on the important rules of this year's Enke sacrifice, working hard, but was slandered and slandered by some villains. These ill-intentioned people, all of them have bad intentions, like mad dogs to catch and bite whom, Shibo, I am afraid that someone will take this opportunity to talk about your acquaintance with the suspect, and attack Dali Temple. ”
Mu Yirong didn't understand, why did the people who slandered the prince attack Dali Temple?
Liu Shicheng Daomu Yirong, who hurriedly explained, is still too young, and some things can't be seen through!
