Prime Minister Chasing Her Husband

Chapter 97 The Heart of Misfortune

As Lu Tan spoke, Xie Xuan had almost identified the person who refined the poison. He did not report it immediately because of selfishness, but he did not dare to neglect. More than half of the active people under him were allocated and all were placed in Wanhualou.Unexpectedly, that night, he received a letter from Jing Wenhao, saying that he had dispatched 100 elite troops from the Yulin Army to him, and asked him to keep an eye on Qiyue in Wanhualou, ready to close the net at any time.

It's been a rough few days in Kyoto.News of Chen Bing's death spread like wildfire.There were gossip rumors that Chen Concubine's father was put under house arrest by the emperor, and imperial envoys were sent to check the accounts of his grandfather's military camp. No matter whether it was in the court or among the people, the discussion about this matter was not very pleasant.It is mostly said that Jing Wenhao borrowed the position from the Chen family back then, and now Concubine Chen is pregnant, and I heard that she is still a boy.Although the rumors in the market are not credible, Jing Wenhao and the others know that this is a deliberate act by someone with a heart who sees his frequent movements.

All the members of the cabinet, headed by Mr. Qin Ge, wrote to Jing Wenhao repeatedly, saying that it was not good for him to reuse Xie Xuan, that Xie Xuan’s insidious methods in handling cases in Dali Temple made the whole Dali Temple run wild, and that he was too If you are too radical, you should listen to the voice of the people, do more face-saving projects to benefit the people, and then make plans.In the end, they were all beaten back by Jing Wenhao's sentence that tyranny is better than inaction.

The morning of this day was not very peaceful.

Just after Jing Wenhao asked the question: "Your family has something to report", Xie Xuan immediately took a step to the left, leaned over and said, "Qi Zou, Your Majesty, I have something to report."

"Ai Qing said."

"Yesterday, a murder case was transferred from Fulin County in the suburbs of Beijing to Dali Temple. Weichen led his subordinates to interrogate the principal culprit overnight. As a result, the villain confessed that he was injured and there was another murder case. Family annihilation." Xie Xuan raised the booklet in his hand above his head, and a little eunuch walked over in small steps, took the booklet and handed it to Jing Wenhao.

"When the Yang family was destroyed, it was considered a sensation in the capital, but the murderer was never caught, so it became an unsolved case. When I was the prince, I also heard about it at this time. Ai Qing was able to find out the real murderer. It was hard work." Jing Wenhao continued It's a pass, and Xie Xuan is very appreciative.

"Returning to the emperor, the trial of the case is a matter within the responsibility of the minister. Although the matter of the Yang family is big, it is not worth mentioning that it is reckless. It is an imperial decree from the emperor. According to the investigation of the minister, the butcher is Under the instigation of others, and the people behind it are very important, if I rashly investigate, it will be trespassing, so I want to ask the emperor to issue an order to allow the minister to investigate the case." Xie Xuan was bearded and knelt on the ground.As soon as this remark came out, everyone in the court was curious. The investigation of the Yang family's extermination began in the previous dynasty. Press down.

"Presumptuous." He frowned at home and abroad, his expression suddenly changed, and his words were a little angry, and said: "You are a majestic Dali Temple official, a fourth-rank official, I would like to know, the person behind this Who is it that can let you interrogate yourself!"

When Jing Wenhao roared, all the adults in the court trembled. Who can bear the anger of the emperor, besides, this incident has provoked the anger of the two emperors.Compared with being frightened, everyone's curiosity is still a bit more, because this case has been a topic of discussion for a long time.

Speaking of the exterminated Yang family, there are three things that attract the most attention.First of all, his origin is a mystery, and there is no one in the family who is particularly capable, the most is that the master of the family is a small official in the suburbs of Beijing, but he does not know what kind of luck he has, and climbed to the capital. A certain nobleman bought a house with three entrances and three exits in the best part of Kyoto, and his family moved in very ostentatiously.

The two are the daughters of the head of the family, she is really a beauty, it is not an exaggeration to say that she is a fish and a wild goose, and she is ashamed of the moon.From the girl Jiji, there was an endless stream of matchmakers who came to the door to talk about marriage, almost breaking through the one-foot-high threshold. There are many famous families among them, but I don't know what kind of person the family is looking for. The girl was stunned. Xu out.This delay lasted for three or four years. Even though they were older, there were still many people who came to ask for marriage.Xu Shitian was jealous of her confidante, her daughter's family was too good, and her failure to find a good husband's family would cause trouble.

Just three years ago, I heard that suddenly one day, a certain dignitary in Kyoto fell in love with the daughter of this family on the street, and wanted to snatch her back to be his wife. He was put on a sack and beaten into a fool in an alley.The only son of the family was injured like this, and the family was in so much pain that they looked for someone to sue for justice.It's not easy to involve the person who beat someone and the person behind the girl after such a disturbance, so everyone in Beijing is guessing who the two behind them are.At the height of the storm, all members of the Yang family disappeared overnight. This is the third point of the case. The [-] members of the Yang family were all brutally murdered, and even the guard dog was not released. Pass.After killing the person, he set the house on fire. When the fire was extinguished, the whole family became charred corpses, and there was nothing to investigate.

"Back to the emperor, according to the criminal's confession, the mastermind is Chen Fan, the son of General Chen, who is now the first-class lieutenant general in the Second Battalion of Daqi." Xie Xuan spoke sonorously and forcefully, and everyone sighed twice when they heard it.One is that I can't believe it, and the other is that it makes sense.

Although the lieutenant general is a third rank, most of the time he does not go to the court, but only trains in the army, so General Chen who is standing at the court at this time has become the target of public criticism.

Old General Chen was also anxious at the moment, since Jing Wenhao assigned Li Yong to join the army to check the accounts, he knew that he had been too prosperous in the past, and was about to restrain himself and delay his actions, but who knew that the tree wanted to be quiet but the wind kept on.It would be easy to deal with this matter if it came out of nowhere, but he knew about it. Not only did he know, he also took action himself, so the case back then was suppressed so quickly.
