The soft and sticky crown princess is reborn and throws herself into the arms of the crown prince
Chapter 191 Death without evidence
It was precisely because of his stubbornness that ministers in the court who were of higher rank than Pei Xuan were unwilling to argue with his upright character.
Those who were lower in rank than him did not dare to refute him.
This is why Pei Xuan was able to protect himself in the court.
Because even if someone wants to win him over, due to his conservative nature, they will choose someone else.
Isn’t Liang Bo an example?
Mu Yunyu must have had no choice but to choose Liang Bo, this idiot, as his accomplice.
After all, in order to have a certain status in the Ministry of Justice and to be smooth and easy to control, there is no one else except Liang Bo, this lapdog.
When Liang Bo crawled out of the dog hole in Prince Heqin's mansion, it was already dark.
But surprisingly, he did not return to his home, but went to the Ministry of Justice instead.
Even the bailiffs on duty at the Ministry of Justice were a little surprised, as they might not even see Minister Liang when they were on duty in the past.
Why did I come back from my duty today for the first time? Could it be that you are thinking about the case?
After thinking about it, the bailiff felt that it was impossible. Minister Liang was well-known for escaping duty, and he had never been seen to care about any case.
Liang Bo pretended to go into the warehouse to look through the files, but in fact he was waiting for the person on duty at the door to change shifts.
The prince told him to make sure Ao Zhishan died in prison.
By then, there will be no evidence.
Let’s see how His Royal Highness the Crown Prince overturns the verdict.
But what Liang Bo is worried about right now is whether His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and Pei Xuan have interrogated Ao Zhishan when he went to see the prince.
If Ao Zhishan has already confessed and signed the testimony, things will be difficult.
Just as I was thinking about it, the yamen runner on duty outside the door finally changed shifts.
But why was it changed half a minute earlier than usual?
Liang Bo didn't think much about it. Maybe they had also found the trick to be lazy and slack off, just like him.
Before the next wave of people on duty arrived, Liang Bo hurriedly slipped into the Ministry of Justice prison and went straight to Ao Zhishan's cell.
There was a person sleeping on the straw mat whose body shape was exactly the same as Ao Zhishan, but his face was facing the wall, and he was sleeping soundly.
Liang Bo walked closer, took a look at "Ao Zhishan"'s face, then pulled out a dagger and stabbed the man fiercely.
Only a muffled groan was heard, and before the man could react, Liang Bo stabbed him several times.
Seeing that the person didn't move, Liang Bo cautiously turned the person over and checked his breath - dead?
Die so soon?
It seems that the dagger given by the prince is indeed not an ordinary item, and the poison on it takes effect too quickly.
Suddenly, several rats the size of a palm jumped out of the cell, squeaking as they ran past Liang Bo's feet.
Liang Bo was so scared that he broke out in a cold sweat. It was late at night and he almost thought there was a ghost.
Liang Bo poked his head outside, threw the dagger next to the body of "Ao Zhishan", and then slipped away.
The prince said that in this way it could be said that Ao Zhishan committed suicide out of fear of punishment because he could not withstand the pressure from His Royal Highness the Crown Prince.
The dagger was the murder weapon.
This way, no one will suspect him, it's safe!
Just as Liang Bo was about to leave the Ministry of Justice prison, two patrolling yamen runners came towards him and he immediately hid in the dark.
Coincidentally, he happened to hear the problem that the prince was worried about.
One of the guards looked at Ao Zhishan's cell and said to the other, "We have to keep an eye on this tonight. His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and Lord Pei will be in court tomorrow, and he is a key witness."
"That's right, who would have thought that he was actually a lackey of the prince and had the audacity to go against the prince."
"Today, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and Lord Pei interrogated him, and I was so surprised when he confessed!"
Liang Bo's heart skipped a beat. Has he really been interrogated?
So Ao Zhishan has confessed everything and signed the testimony?
Then what's the point of him killing Ao Zhishan? He still has to go to the chief prison warden.
The warden's office had on display testimonies that had been signed and sealed and were about to be heard in court.
When the Ministry of Justice was directly under the emperor, no one could enter without the emperor's oral order.
Like treason.
The chief warden had to wait until the next day when the court opened before opening the door in front of all the officials attending the trial.
However, the Ministry of Justice is now led by His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, and I don’t know if there have been any changes.
In other words, it can be opened with the consent of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince.
Liang Bo looked around with a sly look in his eyes and prepared to slip in.
The warden's door was never keyed at first because no one was willing to risk their lives for testimony.
Secondly, the testimonies were only obtained after interrogation by officials from the Ministry of Justice. If anyone touched them, it would cause an uproar.
What he was going to do when he went in was not to change it, but to destroy it.
Ao Zhishan is already dead. If there is no more testimony, it can be said that no one has tried Ao Zhishan today.
If His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and Pei Xuan insisted that they had interrogated the suspect, would anyone question their testimony?
No testimony? Or they lost it, capital crime.
Even if this is not the case, Ao Zhishan's death was suspicious, and he might be able to put the blame on the prince, and then ask the prince for credit.
The more Liang Bo thought about it, the more he felt that he was extremely smart. He licked his teeth habitually and walked towards the wooden box where the testimony was placed.
His hand had just been extended for a few seconds, and just when he saw that he was about to succeed.
Suddenly, a voice was heard in the dark room.
"Master Liang is very courageous. He is so blatant now."
A cold voice came from the darkness. Liang Bo was so scared that he wet his pants and ran away crawling.
His face was covered with snot and tears, and he kept shouting, "Ghost, there is a ghost! Help, help, help!"
As soon as they climbed to the door, a large group of yamen runners came towards them with torches.
Liang Bo suddenly realized that if others knew that he was the chief warden at this moment, he would probably be killed.
But there are "ghosts" behind him and people in front of him, where can he hide?
Before I could react, someone was already standing in front of me.
Liang Bo suddenly felt cold all over, with cold sweat pouring down his forehead. He raised his head tremblingly and saw Pei Xuan's dead fish face!
Liang Bo felt a chill in his heart when he saw Pei Xuan's death gaze. Damn it, how could he be caught by this blockhead?
I'm afraid there's no room for maneuver.
Liang Bo held on to the last bit of hope and tried to stand up, but his legs were too weak and he had wet his pants. Not wanting to embarrass himself, he just lay on the doorstep.
He looked up at Pei Xuan and said, "Master Pei, I said I went to the wrong toilet, do you believe me?"
He looked really embarrassed.
Pei Xuan frowned, stared at Liang Bo silently and said: "Sir Liang, do you think I am a fool?"
Liang Bo felt like crying but had no tears. He resented Pei Xuan in his heart. "It's already this late. Why are you coming to the Ministry of Justice?"
He had clearly observed that there was no one around before he sneaked in, but he never expected to be caught on the spot.
Come to think of it, it was his yelling just now that called people over.
Thinking of this, Liang Bo looked back belatedly. Didn’t he hear a ghost talking in the room just now?
Suddenly, Liang Bo had an excuse.
"Master Pei, you have to believe me. I was just passing by and heard the sound of a ghost inside, so I came in to see."
