The Brocaded Tale of The Girl Si - Chapter 824
“Lu Shengxiang’s owner?”
Zhen Shicheng explained: “It’s the prince.”
Emperor Jing Ming twitched his mouth.
He does not need to be reminded!
“The princess was slandered and reported to the official?”
Zhen Shicheng opened the rattan box, took out the case file placed on the top, and said loudly: “In early February, I received a pleading letter from the treasurer of Lu Shengxiang, Xiu Niangzi, and sued the person who instigated the rumors in Beijing for unpredictable, causing Lu Shengxiang to close the door and Lu Shengxiang. The club’s reputation is damaged—”
Emperor Jingming interrupted: “There is no specific defendant?”
“Nothing.”
“You took it?”
Zhen Shicheng glanced at Emperor Jingming in surprise: “Of course the Weichen took it.”
Emperor Jingming was silent.
He wanted to knock Lao Zhen to death with a paperweight!
The turmoil finally subsided, this old guy was tossing about.
But thinking about the old guy in front of him as his in-laws, Emperor Jing Ming held back.
It’s too bad to prevent my daughter from getting married.
“Did you find out?”
Zhen Shicheng’s calm expression changed with a hint of embarrassment: “The investigation has been found out, but things are a bit complicated…”
“Speak slowly.” Emperor Jingming glanced at the rattan box again.
Can such a big box not be complicated?
“After many investigations, the Weichen confirmed that a few idlers who spread rumors were organized, and traced the leader of this organization to the owner of a teahouse, named Li Ji. This Li Ji was born in a poor family and had no parents. Become a swinger, the funding for opening a teahouse is a bit strange, but fortunately, Weichen tried his best to pry open his mouth. Behind him was a mysterious funder who not only gave him the money to open the teahouse, but also occasionally explained it. Some of his tasks, most of which are related to spreading rumors to influence public opinion in Beijing…”
Emperor Jingming listened silently, his face uglier the more he listened.
Teahouses and pubs are originally a place where dragons and snakes are mixed, and spreading rumors is the most convenient, and he can understand that rumors can kill people invisible.
This Li Ji is worth a thousand cuts!
“Did the mysterious person find out?”
Zhen Shicheng paused, and said: “Every time the mysterious person sees Li Ji, he covers his face with a hat. Li Ji cannot describe the person’s appearance. He can only guess from the body shape and walking posture that he is a man in his thirties. Moderate, thin, with a soft voice.”
Emperor Jingming shook his head: “There are so many such people, trying to find it is like looking for a needle in a haystack.”
“Yes, fortunately, Weichen asked Li Ji some information based on experience.”
“What did you ask?”
“Once a mysterious person met Li Ji, he inadvertently left a gilt bronze four-leaf clover button, which was hidden by Li Ji after it was discovered.” Zhen Shicheng said as he took out a small red lacquer box from the rattan box and opened it to present it. To the front of Emperor Jingming.
Emperor Jing Ming glanced at the gilt copper buttons lying in it, his face covered with clouds.
Ordinary people’s clothes are wrapped in a string or simply knotted directly. Those who use gold, silver, gems, ivory and other things to make buttons are non-rich families.
He was familiar with the pattern of this button, and it was owned by some identities in the palace.
Zhen Shicheng observed Emperor Jingming’s face, and guessed that the old emperor could bear it, stroked his beard and said: “Considering the special nature of this button, the Weichen also investigated the five sense organs of the Qintian Supervisor Lang Zhu Duohuan——”
Emperor Jingming was taking a sip of tea to relieve his gloomy mood, and he almost squirted out the tea.
Lang Zhu Duohuan?
Who asked Lao Zhen to check this out!
He originally ordered Han Ran to investigate, because he thought it was about the prince, and he was afraid that he would have a relationship with the palace again, so he didn’t want too many foreign ministers to know.
“What does the button have to do with the five-feeling Lingtai Lang?” Jingming asked angrily.
He couldn’t figure out how Lao Zhen thought about it.
Zhen Shicheng replied earnestly: “Qin Tianjian set the crown prince auspicious day as the day when the tengu swallows the sun. It is very likely that someone will harm the prince. Considering that the rumors that are raging in the capital are aimed at the prince, the Weichen thinks it is possible to investigate the case together.”
“Did you find out?”
“I found some information…”
After Zhen Shicheng finished speaking, Emperor Jingming’s face was completely dark.
Very good, more detailed investigation than Han Ran, does Jin Linwei eat shit?
Zhen Shicheng bowed his hands: “After the two cases were investigated, the minister came to a bold conclusion that the mysterious person who funded Li Ji was probably the servant Wang Ying in the Ci Ning Palace.”
“What?” After Zhen Shicheng said this result, Emperor Jing Ming didn’t feel too shocked for some reason, but gave birth to a trace of inexplicable fear.
“Please look at the emperor.” Zhen Shicheng picked up a file from the rattan box and opened it. “Weichen asked Li Ji that the mysterious man always contacted him on the first day of the new year, and the only people in the palace were from Cining Palace. On the first day of each month, the incense is given to the palace, and for many years. Weichen also explored the people who went to the palace on the first day of each month. Wang Ying is there every time, and Wang Ying is in line with Li Ji’s mysterious figure of moderate and partial stature. Thin description.”
Emperor Jingming’s face turned black: “So, the person who made trouble twice was the servant Wang Ying of the Cining Palace?
Zhen Shicheng was silent for a moment, and said loudly: “Weichen believes that the servant Wang Ying is only acting for others, and the person who really planned is the Queen Mother——”
“Shut up!” Emperor Jingming stood up suddenly, holding a white jade paperweight and pointing to Zhen Shicheng, “Bold!”
Pan Hai kept his head down, feeling bitter.
Isn’t Master Zhen cheating him? I dare to say such things. What should I do if the emperor is angry but kills them all?
Zhen Shicheng knelt down calmly: “Weichen’s conclusions are all based on investigations. Please refer to the emperor.”
“I said, let you silence! Your so-called conclusion is nothing more than speculation, and even whether the mysterious person is the servant Wang Ying is speculation. How dare you involve the queen mother?”
Zhen Shicheng did not flinch: “Weichen will not wrong a good person or let a bad person go.”
The face of Emperor Jingming was twisted.
Does this mean that the Queen Mother is a bad person?
After the empress dowager’s benevolent face shook his mind, Emperor Jingming only felt that his brain hurts, and said angrily: “Zhen Shicheng, don’t rely on my trust to be presumptuous, just enough!”
Zhen Shicheng looked down and calmly said: “Weichen dare not presumptuous, let alone presumptuous, the only fact that the minister has been asking for is the truth.”
The word “truth” almost defeated Emperor Jingming, making him tottering.
Pan Hai hurriedly supported Emperor Jingming and persuaded, “The emperor should not get angry.”
Emperor Jingming slowed down, staring at Zhen Shicheng and warned: “There is no need to investigate this case anymore. There is no evidence to rely on speculation, but it is disturbing people’s hearts!”
Pan Hai winked at Zhen Shicheng desperately.
Master Zhen, please go quickly. At any rate, give the emperor some time to let the emperor move the queen mother as soon as he comes up. Isn’t this whimsical?
Zhen Shicheng was unmoved, pointing to the rattan box full of case files: “These are all evidence, but the emperor ignored it.”
Is he a bullshit? The emperor questioned his ability to handle cases.
You can bear everything, but this one can’t bear it!
Emperor Jingming was furious, and said angrily: “Come on, drag Zhen Shicheng down!”
