[Red Chamber] The imperial examination life of the great master

"Look, it's just that I have to remind you that time may be running out." Zhang Heng reminded with his hands behind his back.

Jia She nodded and made it clear that he is not a person who does not know good and bad, and it is precisely because he knows good and bad that he is eager to find clues and bring the real murderer to justice.

This is not only for himself, but also for the sake of Miss Xu who died innocently.

Wu Zuo and Wu Zuo's mother-in-law bent over and stood beside the corpse.

Jia She said that she was offended, and stretched out her hand to examine Miss Xu's body carefully.

He checked his hands from head to toe, and when he saw Miss Xu's nails, he suddenly gasped.

at the same time.

In the imperial study room, Song Yuanqing, father and son of the Xu family, and Bai Shangen all knelt on the ground, several people added fuel and vinegar, and made nonsense.

After some words, Emperor Jianming seemed to be a little angry.

"Your Majesty, please also restore my daughter's innocence, so that she can sleep peacefully under the Nine Springs." Xu Chengsong said with tears streaming down his face, he wiped his tears and sobbed.

Emperor Jianming snorted, "Go pass on Zhang Qing and Jia Amnesty, I want to ask Zhang Qing how the case was resolved!"

"Yes!" Feng Dao promised, and went with the little eunuch himself.

After a while, Jia Amnesty and Zhang Heng arrived.

"Jia Amnesty, you keep saying that you are innocent! Even my censor can't argue against you, but your mouth is so powerful!" Emperor Jianming said this lukewarmly, which made Bai Shangen a little confused.

Zhang Heng understood in his heart that Emperor Jianming was still clear in his heart and wanted to defend Jia She, and this was also for the sake of the prince, but it was not easy to go too far on the surface, and now everything depends on Jia She's own good fortune.

If he understands, this matter can be resolved quickly, if he doesn't understand, then there is still time to delay.

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your praise, Xiaomin dare not compare with Lord Bai." Jia She said.

Emperor Jianming was stunned for a moment. It was interesting to climb up the pole. He pursed his lips and raised his eyebrows, "I ask you, since you keep saying that you are not the murderer, who is the murderer? Do you know?"

Xu Genqing's heart tightened, he swallowed, and lowered his head subconsciously.

Seeing his small movements, Xu Chengsong at the side felt a chill in his heart, and his whole body shook, as if he was in a bottomless abyss, his whole body was chilling.

"I know." Jia She said suddenly, he raised his finger and pointed at Xu Genqing, "The murderer is him!"

"Nonsense! You are talking nonsense!" Xu Genqing had a guilty conscience at first, but when Jia Amnesty pointed it out, his face turned pale and he repeatedly refuted.

Xu Chengsong closed his eyes, he felt that his mouth was full of fishy smell, and his heart throbbed with cramps, he said with force: "Your Majesty, this person is probably hysterical, and the dog and the little girl have been very close since childhood. , how could he kill his sister?!"

Yeah, how could he kill his sister?

In fact, Xu Chengsong didn't need to speak, and no one else believed that Xu Genqing would poison his sister!

When Jia She had just guessed the truth, he didn't believe it either, but the facts were in front of him, so he couldn't help but not believe it.

He made a bow and said softly: "Your Majesty, Xiaomin has evidence."

"What evidence?" Emperor Jianming asked curiously.

"The evidence is on Xu Genqing." Jia Amnesty took a step forward, tore off Xu Genqing's shirt, pointed at his neck and said, "Please look, Your Majesty and my lords, what is here?"

"It's just wounds, nothing unusual." Xu Chengsong snorted coldly and said.

Jia She glanced at him, he didn't know if Xu Chengsong knew about it, but now, he won't let anyone stop him from restoring his innocence, "Yes, the wound is not unusual, but if the wound is What caused your love?"

"What do you mean?" Song Yuanqing noticed that there was a lot of meaning in Jia She's words, and couldn't help asking.

What Jia She said made people think too much.

Others may not have thought of this, but no one dared to ask about it.

"Song Xiang should have thought about it. Why did you ask me?" Jia Amnesty felt dirty even telling what Xu Genqing had done. He gave Xu Genqing a disgusted look and said, "If Xiaomin didn't You guessed wrong, you forced your sister to take the arsenic, and your sister got arsenic on her fingers during the struggle, and then she scratched your wound with her fingers, the wound on your neck should have healed But because of the arsenic, it didn't heal for a long time, and you didn't expect that the skin of your neck and a little bit of arsenic remained in Lingmei's fingernails."

"Your Majesty, I implore Your Majesty to tell the truth about Miss Xu who was killed innocently." Jia Amnesty knelt down, and when he was inspecting Miss Xu's body just now, he finally understood why Xu Genqing wanted to frame and kill him in a hurry. To trip them outside the Rongguo Mansion, there is even a reason why he needs a scapegoat.

"Send it to the imperial physician for examination." Emperor Jianming shouted with a livid face.

Jia Amnesty breathed a sigh of relief.

Xu Genqing's legs softened, his face turned pale, and he knelt down on the ground.

There is no need to say more about all this.

Song Yuanqing's face was as dark as the bottom of a pot, he gouged out Xu Chengsong's eyes, and clenched his teeth tightly, wishing to pounce on Xu Chengsong's flesh and drink Xu Chengsong's blood.

He never expected that Miss Xu's death was caused by such an unbearable reason. If word spread in the future, his son and the Song family's reputation would be completely ruined!

Xu Chengsong's face was gloomy, as if he had aged many years in an instant.

"The old minister has no way to teach his son. He has no face to face His Majesty. I implore His Majesty to let the old minister retire." Xu Chengsong opened his robe and knelt down in the hall.

Although Emperor Jianming despised Xu Genqing's actions, Xu Chengsong was an indispensable chess piece for him for the time being, so he frowned and said, "Why did Xu Aiqing say this? Your son's deeds are ruined, and it is your son's fault." Wrong, although you are responsible for improper discipline, it is not your fault."

The implication is that he dismissed his plan to become an official.

However, Xu Chengsong's complexion did not improve.

The imperial physician hurried over, checked and nodded, "Your Majesty, the wound is indeed delayed due to arsenic."

Emperor Jianming nodded, looked at Zhang Heng, "Zhang Qing, I will leave this person to you to deal with according to the law."

Emperor Jianming somewhat saved Xu Chengsong's face, and did not send Xu Genqing down on the spot.

"As for you, Jia Amnesty." Emperor Jianming stroked his beard, "Although this time you are a disaster for no reason, it may not be because of your misbehavior in the past. You can learn from others in the future."

Jia She said yes, deprivation of the position of the son is a foregone conclusion, a gentleman said, the four horses are hard to chase, and Emperor Jianming would not change his words, he had expected it.

Jia She thought to himself, when he was forced to read the Four Books and Five Classics by his grandfather when he was a child, he still had complaints in his heart, but now that he thinks about it, every drink and peck is a definite number.
