After the marriage, the disabled war king was spoiled by me
Chapter 181 Witness
The two remained calm, which only made Jiang Shaohan more suspicious. They decided to make proper arrangements for Li Ming's funeral before continuing the investigation.
Back at the palace, Jiang Shaohan and Du Yunsheng began to sort out the relevant information about Li Ming. They found that although Li Ming was only a eunuch, his position in the palace was very important. He was responsible for the emperor's daily life and had a certain relationship with many dignitaries in the palace.
Du Yunsheng analyzed: "Since Li Ming's status in the palace is so special, his death will definitely cause drastic fluctuations in the palace."
Jiang Shaohan nodded in agreement: "That's right, we must find the real culprit as soon as possible, otherwise the turmoil in the palace will greatly increase the difficulty of the investigation."
Therefore, they decided to enter the palace the next day. In addition to paying their respects to the emperor, they also wanted to secretly investigate the cause of Li Ming's death.
The next day, Jiang Shaohan and Du Yunsheng entered the palace and felt a heavy atmosphere. They saw the emperor and found that he looked solemn, and it was obvious that he had not fully recovered from the news of Li Ming's death.
Jiang Shaohan bowed respectfully: "Your son pays respect to the emperor."
The emperor just nodded slightly: "Well, get up."
Du Yunsheng also bowed: "Your Majesty, I pay my respects to you."
The emperor looked at them and asked, "It's just right that you're here. I was just wondering what you think about Li Ming's death."
Jiang Shaohan replied: "Father, although Li Ming has a special status in the palace, there must be some unknown secret behind his death."
The emperor nodded in agreement: "Yes, I feel the same way. Do you have any clues?"
Jiang Shaohan replied: "We are not clear enough yet, but we will do our best to get to the bottom of it as soon as possible."
The emperor solemnly warned: "Okay, you must act with caution and don't let me down."
The two left the palace and returned to the mansion. They looked at each other and saw the determination in each other's eyes. They knew that this opponent was far more powerful and cunning than they had imagined.
Back at the mansion, Jiang Shaohan and Du Yunsheng were full of worries, and a heavy atmosphere filled the air between them. They knew very well that this time the opponent was far more powerful and cunning than they had imagined.
"We must find clues as soon as possible and uncover the real cause of Li Ming's death." Du Yunsheng's eyes flashed with determination and his tone was firm.
Jiang Shaohan nodded slightly and said in a deep voice: "Yes, our opponents are obviously very cunning, and the clues they left behind are extremely limited. But we can't give up because of this. We must find the flaws and uncover the truth."
They decided to start the investigation from the people around Li Ming, perhaps they could find some clues. So they began to question the people around Li Ming one by one, but did not find any valuable clues.
However, during the interrogation, they found an anomaly. On the day of Li Ming's death, one of his close eunuchs suddenly disappeared. This eunuch was named Zhao Si, who had been working beside Li Ming. His sudden disappearance was obviously not accidental.
Jiang Shaohan and Du Yunsheng looked at each other and saw the doubt in each other's eyes. They decided to look for Zhao Si, maybe he could reveal some mysteries.
They walked out of the palace and came to the world outside the palace. This world is full of people of all kinds, some are kind, some are vicious, some are loyal, and some are treacherous. And they have to find Zhao Si in this world and uncover the truth.
They came to Zhao Si's home, but found that Zhao Si's family had left the city and disappeared. They could only ask around in the streets, hoping to find some clues.
In a remote alley, they met a mysterious old man who looked ordinary, but his eyes revealed a hint of shrewdness.
Jiang Shaohan stepped forward and asked, "Old man, do you know where Zhao Si is going?"
The old man looked at them and smiled: "You are from the palace, right? I advise you not to interfere in this matter."
Du Yunsheng frowned: "Why?"
The old man sighed and said, "This matter involves some secrets of the palace. It's best if you don't get involved."
Jiang Shaohan said in a deep voice: "As ministers, we have the responsibility to share the emperor's worries. Zhao Si's disappearance may be related to Li Ming's death. We must get to the bottom of it."
The old man looked at them with a hint of admiration in his eyes. Finally, he sighed and said, "Okay, I'll tell you. Zhao Si went to the Dongfang family. You can go there to find him."
Jiang Shaohan and Du Yunsheng looked at each other and saw the surprise in each other's eyes. They thanked the old man and immediately rushed to the Dongfang family.
At the Dongfang family, they finally found Zhao Si, who looked panicked and had obviously known about Li Ming's death.
Jiang Shaohan stepped forward and asked, "Zhao Si, do you know the cause of Li Ming's death?"
Zhao Si replied tremblingly: "I know, but I can't tell you. The Dongfang family will kill me."
Du Yunsheng frowned: "They? Are you talking about Dongfang Qingye and Dongfang Yinxu?"
Zhao Si nodded, a hint of fear flashing in his eyes.
Jiang Shaohan said in a deep voice: "Don't worry, we will protect your safety. You must tell us the truth."
Zhao Si hesitated for a moment, and finally spoke: "Li Ming was killed by the Dongfang family. They have been secretly manipulating some affairs in the palace. Li Ming knew their secrets, so they wanted to kill him."
Jiang Shaohan and Du Yunsheng looked at each other and saw the shock in each other's eyes. They knew that this opponent was stronger than they thought.
"Thank you, Zhao Si." Jiang Shaohan said in a deep voice, "We will protect your safety and let you leave here safely."
Zhao Si nodded, a hint of gratitude flashing in his eyes.
They took Zhao Si away from the Dongfang family and started a new investigation. They knew that the opponent this time was very powerful, but they could not back down. They had to uncover the truth and relieve the emperor's worries.
In the following days, they traveled all over Jindu, looking for clues and questioning witnesses. They encountered many obstacles and threats, but they never gave up and firmly pursued the truth.
Finally, they found a key witness, a witness who had seen Dongfang Qingye and Dongfang Yinxu kill Li Ming. The witness described the scene in detail to them, and they finally uncovered the real cause of Li Ming's death.
They returned to the palace with the evidence and reported everything to the emperor. The emperor was shocked and immediately ordered the arrest of Dongfang Qingye and Dongfang Yinxu.
In the subsequent interrogation, Dongfang Qingye and Dongfang Yinxu could not deny and finally admitted their crimes. They explained how they secretly manipulated the affairs of the palace, how they killed Li Ming, and what their real purpose was.
In the end, the emperor made a fair judgment, executed Dongfang Qingye and Dongfang Yinxu, and sought justice for Li Ming.
Jiang Shaohan and Du Yunsheng performed well in this incident. The emperor praised them highly and promoted them to high officials in the palace.
