Dressed as the villain's stepmother

"Master Shaoqing, please don't be rude."

The third prince followed closely and spoke out to stop the Minister of Dali Temple.

He was the presiding judge of this case today. The princes who were watching all expressed their understanding of Jiang Lianzhu's current mood. There was no reason for him, the presiding judge, to cling to one area.

"Just now, I was so rude in my lower position, Mrs. Liao, I'm sorry."

The two princes spoke for Jiang Lianzhu one after another, and the young minister of Dali Temple could only apologize.

Jiang Lianzhu took out the handkerchief from her waist and ignored the apology. Her eyes were already red, and she shed tears before she said a word.

"Master Shaoqing, my mother and father were a loving couple. Now that my father has passed away, I hope that while investigating the case, you will consider my mother's grief!"

Liao Xiaoping followed the prince for many days and saw too many things.

Therefore, he suddenly understood the intention behind the words of the young minister of Dali Temple. With displeasure in his eyes, he walked to Jiang Lianzhu and supported the erect Jiang Lianzhu.

"You, the young minister of Dali Temple, have you forgotten! The person who died is my father and our family. If you don't go outside to investigate, you have to be here to be yin and yang with my mother!"

Liao Xiao'an didn't have as good a temper as Liao Xiaoping. He had been learning from Zhenbei Hou for a while, and when he saw that the other party was not being kind, he immediately fought back.

"On the day of the fire, no one from the patrol team in the capital dared to go in. It was my mother who fought her way into the flames!"

"You just asked my mother like that, what's your motive?"

The three treasures protect the mother.

Not wanting anyone to bully Jiang Lianzhu, they all gathered around Jiang Lianzhu. Jiang Lianzhu looked at Sanbao, who had been especially surrounding her in the past few days, and stretched out her hands to hold the person in her arms.

Orphans and widowed mothers, their faces are filled with pain.

Unknown to outsiders, it was the young minister of Dali Temple who bullied the orphans and widowers of Liao Yunchuan when his body was still cold.

"Young gentlemen, you have spoken harshly. It was inappropriate for me not to inquire just now. Please forgive me, Mrs. Liao!"

The Young Minister of Dali Temple didn't want to find out any useful information, but he was labeled as treating orphans and widowed mothers harshly. Now in Kyoto, Jiang Lianzhu is the most untouchable in front of him.

Master Jing Zhaoyin is a precedent.

The three treasures shared the same hatred and protected Jiang Lianzhu's expression. Naturally, she allowed Liao Xiaoping and the others to attack each other verbally. When the young minister of Dali Temple could not come to power, she would step in.

"There was a sudden change at home, and I have no time to discipline the children. Sir, please don't blame me."

Seeing Jiang Lianzhu change from a crazy lady to a reasonable person now, the young minister of Dali Temple would certainly not be able to continue pursuing the case.

"It's okay."

"Third Prince, my husband Liao Yunchuan's death was very strange. I wonder if you have any clues about this case?"

Anti-customer.

Nowadays, although Jiang Lianzhu has a lot of clues in his hand, these clues are too scattered and there is no way to connect them together. Jiang Lianzhu wants to get some useful information from the third prince.

"What Madam said is that Mr. Liao's death was indeed not an accident."

The third prince explained the progress of his current investigation to Jiang Lianzhu.

"There is a large area of ​​​​houses to the east of the courtyard where Mr. Liao previously lived, where people in Kyoto gathered. On that day, after the explosion, the patrol team found a house that had stored a lot of black powder during a search."

Hearing the words black gunpowder, a flash of understanding flashed in Jiang Lianzhu's eyes. Not long ago, Liu Qingqing just mentioned to her that the prime minister relied on black gunpowder to make money.

"I wonder if the patrol team asked anything from that family?"

Jiang Lianzhu asked about the exit.

"Well, on the night of the incident, the patrol arrested a lot of suspicious people. I asked about the details of that family. They are a small workshop. They have been running a fireworks business in the past years."

"That place is a gathering place for people in Kyoto. Many of them bought some fireworks and firecrackers from that family nearby to celebrate the Spring Festival. However, in previous years, the amount of black powder used was not as large as this time."

Jiang Lianzhu was filled with doubts as she listened to the third prince's explanation.

"His Majesty had already asked everyone in Kyoto to be prepared for flooding more than ten days ago. The patrol members also warned every household to be careful about fires. If that household really stored a large amount of black powder, why did the patrol team Didn’t anyone notice anything was wrong?”

At the feet of the Emperor of Kyoto.

During some major festivals, relevant preparations will be made in advance in order not to alarm the royal family.

In addition, members of this patrol patrol the streets and alleys of Kyoto every day.

With such a careful arrangement, can anything slip through the net?

"What Madam said is absolutely true. Originally, the patrolmen should have found out the problem, but this person was careless and careless. I have already captured the patrol soldier who accepted the bribe."

There is something fishy about this matter. As long as the third prince follows the clues, he will surely pull out the carrot and bring out the mud.

Once there are clues in the case, it is not difficult to find out the truth.

However, the third prince has to consider not only the truth of the case, but also the satisfaction of all parties involved.He is a descendant of the royal family, not an official. Officials need to get to the bottom of everything and find out the truth behind everything.

What the prince wants is to balance the forces of all parties.

This is the art of the emperor.

"The patrol neglected its duties and caused a catastrophe. Little did he know that the bribes he received were paid at the painful cost of making too many people homeless."

Jiang Lianzhu pondered.

She rushed to the scene of the fire that day and saw with her own eyes that the entire street was in flames due to the explosion.

"What Madam is saying is that right now, dozens of houses in Dongcheng District have been reduced to ashes. Not only that, the explosion also injured countless people. The people there are complaining about their poor livelihood this year. I am just worried about this incident. I have a headache."

Finding out the truth of the matter, appeasing Jiang Lianzhu's orphans and widowed mother, and making arrangements for the people involved in the explosion are all what the third prince has to do this time.

If anything is not done well here, the consequences will be disastrous.

Jiang Lianzhu looked at the wry smile on the third prince's lips, thought for a moment and said.

"Your Highness, I actually received a message about the explosion that day."

She handed the third prince what Liu Qingqing told her that day about the private transportation of black powder by water, as well as the investigation letter passed back by Liu Zi.

After the third prince read it, his expression changed slightly.

The young minister of Dali Temple sitting opposite was very curious, but the letter was in the hands of the third prince, so he had no choice but to turn his attention to Jiang Lianzhu again.

"Mrs. Liao really has great powers. She has received information in advance about the explosion-related matters that have not been discovered in Dali Temple. I wonder how much she remembers about what happened at the fire scene that day? Can you tell me everything about it?" "

Dali Temple tried again, and Jiang Lianzhu responded with kindness.

The third prince saw Jiang Lianzhu's expression change at the mention of Liao Yunchuan, and directly stopped Mr. Shaoqing. .
