He has not lived enough

Bai Qingyu took over the complaint, and as soon as he saw the beginning, his expression turned serious, but he didn't say anything immediately, he just quickly read the rest of the content at a glance...

Bai Qingyu received the complaint, and as soon as he read the beginning, his expression turned serious, but he didn't say anything immediately, and only quickly read the rest of the content at a glance.

Not long after Bai Qingyu finished reading the complaint, his expression didn't change much. However, Feng Yuanzhen, who was closest to him, felt the chill spreading from his whole body, and he didn't dare to breathe out immediately.

After a long time, Bai Qingyu said slowly: "Falsely accusing the royal family is a felony, but if it wasn't for the false accusation, there is such a horrific thing hidden under the emperor's feet, and the truth and the magistrate have not noticed it at all. This is really... very dereliction of duty. "

As soon as these words came out, Feng Yuanzhen's legs trembled, and he hurriedly confessed: "No, no, it's the inferior official's dereliction of duty, the inferior official's dereliction of duty!"

After wiping off his sweat, Feng Yuanzhen carefully added: "I'm going to ask someone to investigate and handle this case strictly, so that there won't be any omissions. It's just...the Prince Ning's Mansion is involved in it, and the clan's affairs may be involved in the official's power." If you can't reach it, look at it, Bai Xiang..."

Bai Qingyu pondered for a moment, and said: "Go and bring in the woman at the gate of the government office for questioning. Before the case is investigated, let her stay in the government office temporarily. She needs to be taken care of by a special person. She is not allowed to go out at will except when investigating the case, and no one is allowed to visit her." .”

Feng Yuanzhen hurriedly nodded in response, and then heard Bai Qingyu continue: "Anyone in other prefectures in central Beijing who reported a mad attack will also be taken to the prefectural office for consultation. Don't let them hurt themselves or others. If they obstruct the handling of the case Yes, let them meet me at the Political Affairs Hall."

"As for the matter of the woman suing King Ning and his son, it has a very important relationship. You can't make a judgment before you have solid evidence, but if there is real evidence..."

Bai Qingyu's voice turned cold, "The clan violated the law and committed the same crimes as ordinary people. This is a set rule. I will report the matter to Your Majesty for the truth. Your Majesty will definitely not show favoritism due to personal circumstances. You can investigate freely, but Don’t leak the news in advance.”

Feng Yuanzhen and Yang Tong judged that Qi Qi should be right, so Bai Qingyu didn't stay any longer and went straight to the palace to meet His Majesty.

Gong sent Bai Qingyu away, Feng Yuan really didn't dare to delay, arranged the matter according to Bai Qingyu's instructions, and asked the woman who reported the crime to be brought to the front hall, and he wanted to inquire in person.

After tidying up his official uniform, Feng Yuanzhen and his subordinates went to the front hall together. A woman stood with her head bowed, holding a locked wooden box in her arms.

Sitting down in front of the hall, Feng Yuanzhen slapped the gavel, and said solemnly: "Who is standing in the hall? Is there any conclusive evidence for the case you are suing? If there is a false accusation, the government will punish it severely! "

Although the woman was wearing a coarse cloth and simple shirt, she had a graceful figure. At this moment, Yingying knelt down and said: "The little girl is a servant girl bought by Prince Ning's mansion. A sliver of a lie."

She raised the wooden box in her arms high, raised her head and looked straight at Feng Yuanzhen.

It was Hu Yueru.

At this moment, Hu Yueru didn't put on any makeup, her plain face was facing the sky, but she didn't lose her beauty at all, but her words were powerful: "It is not a matter of a day for Prince Ning and his son to do evil and recklessly, the evidence is in this box, please sir Check."

The yamen servant brought up the wooden box, and Feng Yuanzhen opened the wooden box with concentration. There were many letters in it, and there were more than a dozen porcelain bottles of different colors with engraved characters.

Feng Yuan really wanted to read those letters first, but unexpectedly scanned the words engraved on one of the porcelain vases, and his hands trembled.

After hesitating for a while, Feng Yuanzhen picked up the bottle and looked at it carefully. The words "Zhou Wan'er" and the date were engraved on it.

It is the name of his aunt in the mansion.

Feng Yuanzhen opened the porcelain bottle, and inside were pearl-sized pills, showing an abnormal purple-red color and a strange smell.

Swallowing his dry throat, Feng Yuanzhen asked: "Today, various families in Beijing came to report the girl's madness. According to your complaint, it is related to Prince Ning's Mansion?"

Although he asked such a question, he already had an answer in his heart.

Hu Yueru really replied: "That's true, it's just that they didn't go crazy, but the poison in their bodies broke out."

The pleadings were not very detailed, and she explained in detail how King Ning and his son used poison to control the woman.

After Feng Yuanzhen heard this, he frowned and asked, "Since he sends people to deliver antidote every month, why do these women have seizures today?"

Hu Yueru lowered her head and said, "It's the little girls who secretly replaced those antidotes, and they took useless medicines, so they had seizures."

"These are said to be antidote, but they are actually poison. Long-term use will cause great damage to the body. Before my daughter was controlled by them, she met a genius doctor by chance and was able to cure the poison. I couldn't bear to see my sisters continue to suffer, so I used it as a last resort. This method intends to expose this matter to the world.”

Feng Yuanzhen frowned: "You still have a bit of a chivalrous heart, so what's the matter with the son going crazy?"

She bowed deeply to Feng Yuanzhen: "My lord, we girls are all bought, and we are also sons of a good family, but we are forced to do all kinds of things against our will. My daughter hates Prince Ning and his son to the bone, but They are members of the royal family, fearing that they will not be punished, so they secretly poisoned Zhao Ke on their own initiative, let him have a taste of this, and also avenged the sisters!"

"Confused, you—"

Feng Yuanzhen couldn't help feeling emotional when he heard the back, and felt a little bit of pity for the weak woman in front of him, but he didn't say any more because of his status, and turned to say seriously: "Regardless of whether what you told is true or not, poisoning is your responsibility. It’s true, this is a felony!”

Hu Yueru smiled indifferently: "Since my little girl has done this, she never thought of being kind. My little girl knows that she is humble and lowly. The so-called gnats are hard to shake a tree, but the actions of Prince Ning and his son are heinous, and I will not take revenge...My little girl Even if I die, I am ashamed of the wronged souls of the sisters they killed."

There was a moment of silence in the hall.

Although Feng Yuanzhen is now the magistrate, he also climbed up from the farm step by step through the imperial examination. Naturally, he knows the difficulties ordinary people have in dealing with high-ranking officials and nobles, and he can better understand the determination of this weak woman.

At this moment, a yamen servant hurried over from outside the hall and whispered a few words beside Feng Yuanzhen. Feng Yuanzhen hurriedly got up and went to the inner hall, but it was the subordinate who followed Bai Qingyu first.

The visitor didn't talk much, he bowed to Feng Yuanzhen and took out a secret edict from his sleeve, after Feng Yuanzhen took it, unfolded it and read it, then took out a token from his pocket and handed it to him: "This is the order from Your Majesty. Token, seeing this token is like seeing Your Majesty, even if you go to Prince Ning's Mansion to investigate the case, no one can stop you."

The secret edict has made it clear, let Feng Yuanzhen let go to investigate, and handle the case together with Dali Temple and Dazongzheng Temple after there is conclusive evidence, don't have to be scruples, and act quickly, if necessary, he can take someone to Ningwang's mansion first tonight Check and take people, so as not to make any moves by King Ning and his son.

Feng Yuanzhen took it solemnly, and finally took a reassurance in his heart, cupped his hands and said: "Feng will handle the case impartially, and will certainly not disappoint His Majesty and Bai Xiang's entrustment."

Originally, he was worried that His Majesty would speak up to defend him. After all, it seemed that Prince Ning and his son were close to His Majesty, and although no one dared to say it, many people thought that His Majesty was an ambiguous one.

Not so today.

The visitor said again: "Mr. Bai also confessed that this case involves a serious matter, and he fears that there will not be enough yamen servants in the mansion. If Mr. Feng needs additional employment, he will confess."

Feng Yuanzhen said again and again: "Bai Xiang is very thoughtful, I don't know what your surname is?"

The man cupped his hands and said: "Your Majesty Feng, you are welcome. My surname is Li Minghuan. I will be here to assist you until the case is over. If you have any orders, please do so."

Feng Yuan really has more confidence in his heart. This person's presence shows that he has Bai Xiang's backing, and the case will be handled with less resistance.

Without further delay, Feng Yuanzhen asked Li Huan to go to the front hall with him to continue the previous interrogation.

The candles were lit, and it was dark.

But there are many things destined to happen tonight.

Prince Ning's Mansion...

"Father! I itch...I itch!"

Zhao Ke's hair was disheveled, his face was stained with blood, his clothes were torn, and his bare skin was covered with bloody scratches. Even so, he desperately wanted to scratch his body, but was caught by two or three people. The guard pressed down tightly, and could only scream in vain.

"Let go of me! You sluts, let me go! I'll cut off your hands and feet when I get well!"

Zhao Ke's eyes were red and he was unconscious. He could only stare and bark his teeth, looking like a ghost. Several guards were frightened by him, but no one dared to let go.

"My poor son, what's wrong with you—" It was his mother, Concubine Ning Lu, who was crying beside Zhao Ke with snot and tears.

Missing her usual charm and pampering at all, Mrs. Lu covered her heart with a handkerchief, looking at her son's appearance at this moment and wanted to wipe his face, but was almost bitten by him, and fell to the ground in shock.

The little maid at the side hurriedly shouted "Princess be careful", and rushed to help, but another group of people turned their backs on their backs, making the already chaotic situation even worse.

If Mrs. Lu bumped into her on weekdays, she would shed a few tears in front of King Ning to show her weakness and grievance. Now that her hair bun fell apart, she didn't even care about it. She leaned on her waist and threw herself next to King Ning, pulling his sleeves He cried, "Hurry up and think of a way to save Lord Ke'er! If you continue like this, you will die!"

King Ning, who had always been with the old god, was also in a state of desperation, and his beard was almost pulled out by him. Lu's crying made him even more upset, and he shouted: "Cry! Cry! You know how to cry. Do you want to save him or curse him! Cry!" Deben Wang's head has exploded!"

Lu shivered when he yelled at her. She would only rely on King Ning's favor to play tricks in the back house. Now that she is really at a loss when she encounters a major event, she can only sniff twice aggrievedly, clutching her handkerchief and looking at Son, dare not say anything more.

Seeing her look like this, she is someone who has been spoiled for many years, and it is for her son. King Ning didn't train her again, but he didn't have the heart to coax her. He said angrily to the servants: "Is everyone dead? Take the princess back to the room first Go, the net is here to make trouble for this king!"

The maids hurriedly helped Lu back to rest, but there was not much life here.

pain!It hurts me!Do not touch me!pain! "

Zhao Ke, who was still itching just now, suddenly cried out in pain again, King Ning hurriedly waved his hand to make the guards let go.

Zhao Ke was curled up and rolling on the ground all of a sudden, his limbs seemed to have been scalded by boiling water, and seemed to be eaten by countless ants burrowing into his flesh and bones.

Seeing his son in such pain, King Ning was heartbroken. He wanted to stretch out his hand to pull Zhao Ke, but he was afraid that he would hurt him even more, so he could only comfort him dryly: "Be patient, Ke'er, my father has already sent them to find Wu. Pharmacist Lu is gone!"

Wulu is the pharmacist secretly raised by King Ning. He was found in southern Xinjiang many years ago. He looks dark and secretive, and he is greedy and lustful. Even King Ning doesn't like him very much, but he has strange medical skills, especially All kinds of poisons were made, so King Ning has been feeding him with food and drink all these years.
