Detective in the Red Chamber

At first Li Shi was puzzled, but then his expression gradually became serious.

In the end, Sun Shaozong spread his hands and said, "The king's new clothes can still silence hundreds of officials and people, not to mention the unfounded child in your belly is related to your majesty's imperial lineage, the great Zhou's national destiny, and even the world's destiny." Hundreds of millions of people!"

"Among the hundreds of officials in the court, although there are many people who want to profit from the chaos, those who look forward to the world's peace still account for the vast majority."

"As for the common people, it's just a novelty about the royal affairs."

"The prince's concubine was forcibly taken over by the prince. After three years of hard work, she finally bit off the prince's dragon root in one fell swoop, and then unexpectedly discovered that she was pregnant with the prince's flesh and blood—there are even more bizarre and absurd stories than this What? If they don’t believe in this, what else can they believe in?”

"So even if someone dares to expose the truth of this matter under the wrath of His Majesty's thunder, he will only be drowned in those voices pretending to be ignorant and pretending to be ignorant! "

"unless……"

"The Supreme Emperor really wants to meet His Majesty in battle, and he will be infamous as a father and son fighting each other through the ages!"

Li Shi, who only heard these words, was stunned for a long time, and finally recovered after a long time, and asked with a complicated expression, "What about me? Why should I cooperate with your tricks and help that stupid king and... and that shameless beast?" !"

"Didn't I say it, this is a bargaining chip for you."

Sun Shaozong said seriously, "A bargaining chip that allows you to bite off the dragon root of His Royal Highness, not only to continue to live, but also to help Prince Yizhong continue his life!"

Chapter 443 Unspeakable

A quarter of an hour later.

The iron gate rumbled again.

"Unlucky, really unlucky!"

It's still that familiar line.

And the sour smell emanating from the secret room became stronger again.

The expression on Liu Luanwei's face suddenly became a little subtle, he looked inside hesitantly, and then asked tentatively, "My lord, could it be that Mrs. Li... vomited again?"

Sun Shaozong covered his nose and did not respond to Liu Luanwei's question. Instead, he cast his eyes on a few young eunuchs and asked suspiciously, "Could it be that there is something wrong with the food you gave her, otherwise why would she vomit one after another?"

"how can that be!"

He beat him up, and immediately some young eunuchs shouted, "Before we feed the food to that slut, we have to taste it one by one! If there is something wrong, we should be the ones to suffer together with her!"

"Besides, when we were guarding her just now, we didn't see anything wrong with her, but your Master Sun came twice, and she just..."

"What happens after I come?"

Sun Shaozong raised his eyebrows, stared at the eunuch, and asked, "Could it be that you still want to put this matter on my head?!"

Under his sharp gaze, although the little eunuch was somewhat dissatisfied, he did not dare to express his doubts.

Sun Shaozong sneered a few more times, flicked the black python-like sleeves, did not distinguish between east, west, north, south, let alone Liu Luanwei who was at the side, chose a small path and walked away.

Liu Luanwei quickly chased after him.

While a few young eunuchs watched the two drift away, the 'outspoken' one just now couldn't help taking a few steps forward, and spat viciously, "Bah! What's so proud of a dog who is arrogant!"

Looking back, seeing several companions still standing outside the door, he immediately put his chest together and scolded in a sharp voice, "Why are you all standing there? Why don't you go in quickly and clean up the filth that Mrs. Li vomited out— —I’ll go to the kitchen first to see if there’s anything mild and pleasing to my taste, so she won’t cause us any more trouble.”

With that said, he swaggered away.

"Bah~ a dog who takes power!"

Little did they know that as soon as he left, the remaining three young eunuchs were also yelling at each other—the four were all temporarily dispatched from the palace, and they were not subordinate to each other, but they were of the same rank, so naturally they could only be distinguished by their backgrounds and backgrounds High or low.

And this Cheng Jin stood out from the crowd precisely because he had a good godfather.

But the three young eunuchs who stayed behind cleaned up the filth by cursing and lighting sandalwood to cover the sour smell, and finally cleaned up everything, only to see that Cheng Jin led the two cooks back. .

After the two cooks put four dishes and two soups on the table, together with a dozen steamed buns, and respectfully exited the secret room, Cheng Jin hugged his shoulders again and raised his chin, "Let's try the dishes."

The three young eunuchs cursed secretly, but they dared not turn against him after all, so they each chose two dishes, tried a few mouthfuls with silver chopsticks, and waited for about a quarter of an hour. Then he mixed the two kinds of vegetables with clear soup and put them in a shallow wine bottle.

Immediately there were two little eunuchs, one on the left and the other on the right, one pinching Chen Shi's nose and the other holding Chen Shi's chin. With a sound of 'Wow', Cheng Jin was sprayed all over his head and face!

"What a lowly servant girl who doesn't know how to die!"

Although there was not much food left in his stomach because he had vomited twice, the sticky liquid still made Cheng Jin furious, and he was about to raise his hand to greet Chen's face.

It's just that his palm was raised for a long time, but it didn't come down for a long time, and the angry expression on his face was replaced by a strange expression.

"Eunuch Cheng."

Seeing that he seemed to be possessed by a demon, the only idle eunuch handed over a handkerchief, and asked pretendingly concerned, "Are you all right?"

Cheng Jin took the opportunity to stuff the wine bottle to him, grabbed the towel and wiped it on his face indiscriminately, then led the three of them outside the door in a low voice, "The food we fed her at noon must be It's no problem, you said that this lowly servant girl vomited again and again, could it be that she already has..."

Although he didn't say the word 'pregnant' out of his mouth, the three little eunuchs couldn't figure it out when they saw his weird expression?

Immediately, the faces became different, some suddenly realized, some were skeptical, and naturally some didn't take it seriously.

Disapprovingly, he first shook his head and said, "Eunuch Cheng is probably thinking too much, right? This lowly servant girl bit off the crown prince's dragon root, but there is another... How can there be such a coincidence in this world!"

Suddenly realizing it, he immediately sang the opposite tune, "It's not impossible. I heard that the crown prince often patronizes this lowly maid, and the sky will water it once. If it is not complete, it will be planted a few times ago..."

As for the dubious one, he directly pointed the finger at Sun Shaozong, and said suspiciously, "Eunuch Cheng, do you think it was Mrs. Sun who did the trick? Before he came, this lowly servant girl was obviously very good. After he came, So many things happened!"

"It's not impossible." The eunuch suddenly realized, frowned and said, "But why did he do it?"

"Could it be..."

The disapproving eunuch swallowed his saliva, stretched out his finger and pointed to the sky, and said tremblingly, "Is this the meaning of the higher-ups?"

The three of them fell silent at the same time. It would undoubtedly be in the best interest of Emperor Guangde if there could be an extra 'dragon species' right now, so this speculation may not be untrue.

"But it doesn't make sense either!"

But after a long while, the half-believing person couldn't help questioning, "If it's the meaning of the above, why did you choose this lowly maid? You must know that His Majesty and the Crown Prince both want to cut her into pieces—she herself is afraid And I don't want to be the prince..."

"That's right, the Crown Princess and so many concubines were not chosen, but this lowly maid was chosen!"

"Could it be that she really has..."

"It wouldn't be so coincidental would it?"

"how do you know……"

The three of them talked one after another, but neither dared to say the word "pregnancy", nor did they dare to completely deny this possibility.

In the end, it was Cheng Jin who made the final decision, and said decisively, "Okay! We can't get involved in this matter. We can just bring this matter to Mr. Ge and let him decide it himself."

When the three of them heard this, they all said that it should be so, so they drew lots to choose an unlucky guy, and hurried towards the front hall where Elder Xu Ge was.

The words are divided into two parts.

But after Sun Shaozong left the secret room, he wandered around in the back garden like a headless fly, and he stopped when he saw an open field with no one around.

Looking back at the pug-like Liu Luanwei, he sighed faintly, "As the prince's close minister, Liu's Fucheng was supposed to have a bright future, but who knew that he would encounter such unexpected disasters for no reason—oh~ it's really God's will."

Liu Luanwei's heart tightened when he heard the words, he couldn't believe that Sun Shaozong deliberately chose such a remote place just to say a few useless nonsense.

Therefore, he quickly raised his vigilance, and said with a wry smile cautiously, "Perhaps it was due to Liu's fate."

Sun Shaozong shook his head and laughed, "Even if it's a destiny destined by the heavens, if you don't go all out and fight for it, how do you know that in this destiny, there is no chance to turn a corner and turn danger into a bargain?"

This seems to be persuading myself to fight hard...

Liu Luanwei was speculating in his heart, but how dare he listen to the instigation of a stranger?

He was hesitating how to tactfully evade the past, lest Sun Shaozong make any difficult demands, but seeing Sun Shaozong took a big step again, he greeted without looking back, "Let's go, first accompany me to Mr. Xu Ge's place for a meal." Have a light meal, and then continue to pursue the case!"

Chapter 444 Critical Strike, Combo Strike, Fatal Strike

When Sun Shaozong led Liu Luanwei to the front living room, he saw that it was deserted, without the slightest trace of fireworks, and there were only two senior officials in red robes sitting opposite each other without saying a word.

Among them, the one who was so popular was naturally Xu Furen, a cabinet scholar, and the other one was not a face, but Xu Liang, the left servant of the Ministry of Punishment who had presided over the "Shenxiansan Special Rectification Conference".

This time Xu Furen was in charge of the overall situation, and it was Sun Shaozong and Xu Liang who were really responsible for leading the team to investigate the case.

Seeing the dignified atmosphere in the hall, Liu Luanwei hesitated to move forward, but Sun Shaozong did not have any scruples, stepped across the threshold, bowed his hands and said in a salute, "I have met the old man and the servant."

Liu Luanwei had no choice but to follow in and salute.

After the two of them had finished seeing each other, Mr. Xu Ge waved his hand, indifferently signaling that they don't need to be formal.

On the other hand, Xu Liang was full of expectations and asked, "Sun Zhizhong, I don't know if you have found any clues?"

"Is this..."

Sun Shaozong was considering how to choose words and sentences when he heard the sound of small footsteps coming from far to near, and then he saw a little eunuch guarding the secret room appearing outside the door of the hall.

"Reporting to the old man, that prisoner, Mrs. Li, has vomited several times since the afternoon. Just now when the servants tried to feed her, she vomited again."

The shrill voice only made Xu Ge's face tense, and he couldn't help blurting out, "Apart from vomiting, did the prisoner have any symptoms of diarrhea?"

Sure enough, Zhuer, who is mature and mature, immediately grasped the key difference between stomach trouble and morning sickness.

And although Xu Liang was half a beat too late, he suddenly realized after hearing Elder Xu Ge's question, and quickly fixed his eyes on the eunuch.

"It never did."

The eunuch shook his head and said, "She's just vomiting, she doesn't have any symptoms of diarrhea."

Xu Shilang's expression turned strange, and he lowered his head and muttered again.

But Xu Ge frowned, but glanced at Sun Shaozong seemingly inadvertently, and then raised his voice and asked, "Besides, when you guarded the secret room, did you have any other abnormalities?"

This time it was the little eunuch's turn to peek at Sun Shaozong, but seeing the presence of the old god Sun Shaozong, he hesitated for a moment, remembering the speculation about the "higher-level account", after all, he still didn't dare to mention that Sun Shaozong went in twice, twice. They all caught up with Mrs. Li's vomiting, so they just shook their heads and said, "Other than that, there is no other abnormality."

Elder Xu Ge was also silent, and he and Xu Shilang looked like a pair of mud-bodied wood sculptures, with only two pairs of eyes shining brightly.

At this time, Sun Shaozong cast his eyes on Liu Luanwei, as if he was expecting something, and seemed to be urging him silently.

Liu Luanwei only felt his heart beating wildly, and now he finally understood what Sun Shaozong's instigation of "give it a go" meant!

This damned hozen made such a monstrous deception, but he refused to take responsibility for it, instead he wanted to trick himself into going through fire and water. He was really vicious!

It is true that if this big lie can really silence the mouths of Youyou, as the person who 'saw through' this matter, he will naturally be the first to do it.

But what if this grotesque deception had been caught?

At that time, wouldn't I have to pay more for my crime?

Besides, if this skill is really so easy, wouldn't the three people in the class have already said it? !

No matter how you look at it, the deal is not worth it, so Liu Luanwei secretly scolded Sun Shaozong for being vicious, while avoiding Sun Shaozong's gaze like a turtle.

however……

"Liu Fucheng."

After Sun Shaozong's gaze was fruitless, he said nonchalantly, "I don't know if your family can leave in this mansion? If you are in this mansion, you might as well go back and reunite with your family first, so as not to suddenly pass down a decree, and it will be too late to be with your family." Say goodbye."

What a vicious fellow!

Liu Luanwei's beating heart almost jumped out of his throat!

These words sounded nothing at first, but Xipin was clearly threatening his life!

He was panicking here, but Elder Xu Ge said slowly, "At any rate, it's a meeting between the monarch and his ministers, remember to go see His Highness the Crown Prince first."

If it is said that Sun Shaozong's threat, there is still a possibility of false intimidation, but Xu Ge's mouth almost nailed Liu Luanwei to the gallows!

Immediately, his two legs trembled, and he almost collapsed to the ground.

And that's not the end.

Xu Shilang was half a beat slower than usual, but he was much more ruthless than the previous two, squinting and sneering, "I don't necessarily have to meet my family, the case of left and right has not been revealed yet, if it is found out that Liu Fucheng is involved, it is inevitable." It can be a family reunion scene.”

This is actually going to kill him all over the house!

puff~

After receiving "critical blows, double blows, and fatal blows" one after another, Liu Luanwei finally collapsed on the ground with his knees limp.

Why? !

Who did I provoke? !

Liu Luanwei really wanted to jump up and scold loudly, to expose the ghostly tricks and vicious intentions of the three people in front of him!

But don't say that he is just a guilty person now, even in normal seasons, Xu Ge, Xu Shilang, and Sun Shaozong teamed up, and it would not be difficult to kill all his family members!

No matter how hard he tried to defend himself, he might end up in vain.

The only thing that can change the situation is...
