Jiang Yi didn't sleep for two consecutive nights, and stayed by Wu Zuo's side waiting for the results of the autopsy.

He was accompanied by Guo Lu, the servant of the Ministry of punishment.

His mood the night before could be described as ups and downs.Just secretly happy to have a relationship with the prime minister, not long after being happy, the prime minister's student was thrown into the prison for suspected murder.

Guo Lu watched the young man talking nonsense that he didn't know the prime minister, and he was secretly startled. He didn't sleep well all night when he went back, and when he woke up the next day, he was notified to accompany him to see the prime minister for an autopsy.

With dark circles under his eyes, Guo Lu greeted Jiang Yi awkwardly: "How is Master Jiang?"

Jiang Yi glanced at him and responded lightly.

After Guo Lu asked, he regretted a little.

It's no wonder he's in a good mood when his pro-student is caught as a murderer.

But he had no other way to remedy the splashed water when he said it, he just smiled embarrassingly.Stand beside Jiang Yi politely.

The job is not very old, but it is probably the first time he has been on an errand for so long, surrounded by two adults to watch how to do the autopsy, and the nervousness can be seen on his face.

What's more, the person who died was the concubine of the fifteenth prince.

Wu Zuo first checked Mei Yanran's face, picked up the hairpin and asked, "Is this hairpin her life or..."

Jiang Yi whispered, "It was worn by the fifteenth prince after his death."

The girl made an "ah" sound, and inserted the hairpin intact/back into the girl's temple with some embarrassment.

He carefully inspected Mei Yanran's body, rolled up his sleeves and collar, raised his head and said, "The concubine was probably killed around Xu time yesterday."

Jiang Yi's eyebrows twitched, and he hurriedly asked, "Why do you say that?"

Wu Zuo held up Mei Yanran's hand and showed him: "Master Jiang, look, the hands of the corpse are in an open state. According to the "Washing Injustice Records", "Chenxu Chou's palms are relaxed at the end", and the corpse was found last night It was less than three quarters of Xu time, so the officials inferred that the time of Wang Hao's death was around Xu time. "

After he finished speaking, he rolled up the girl's cuffs slightly, revealing a pale wrist: "Princess's hand was scratched, and this is the mark left by the wound."

Jiang Yi walked around to the other side of the table according to his words, and together with him, he carefully examined the girl's wrist.

There were three scratch marks on the wrist near the palm, which had already turned purple and blue due to Mei Yanran's death, and there were faint traces of blood bruising around it.

The scratches look familiar, like...

Jiang Yi's eyes fell on the marks on the back of his hand that Xiao Feilian had scratched, and his eyes suddenly darkened.

It looks like the traces of being caught by a raccoon slave.

"The princess should have had physical conflicts with people before she was alive..." Wu Zuo didn't notice that he was lost in thought, and continued, "Her sleeve was scratched somewhere, and the silk thread was pulled out. There are strangle marks on her neck, There is no foamy blood on the nose and mouth, it should be thrown into the pond after death."

Jiang Yi narrowed his eyes slightly, remembering Wu Zuo's words in his heart one by one.

After Wu Zuo finished his report, he said cautiously: "This is the clue that can be seen so far. As for the others... the lower officials need to check further, but I don't know where the fifteenth prince is..."

It is not without accidental deaths of royal relatives and relatives in the past.It's just that these dignitaries seem to dislike him from performing an autopsy, and they always let him go through the inspection process hastily, and then bury him directly.

"I'll ask him about the fifteenth prince..." Jiang Yi whispered, "Apart from these? Can you see anything else now?"

Wu Zuo sighed with some embarrassment: "Forgive me for being incompetent, I really can't see more things."

Jiang Yi's hand on the edge of the table tightened slightly: "I'm sorry to trouble you."

Wu Zuo hurriedly bowed to him: "What Master Jiang said is true, and he will be dismissed from office."

Jiang Yi didn't have time to talk to him about these false etiquettes, so he turned to Guo Lu and said, "Do you know the program schedule for the New Year's Eve banquet the night before yesterday?"

Guo Lu was stunned for a moment: "What program schedule?"

"It's those singing and dancing moments..." Jiang Yi frowned, "When did those assassins come to perform in the hall?"

If, according to what Wu Zuo said, Mei Yanran was killed around the time of Xu, then as long as it can be proved that Pei Xiangyun was still in the Qingping Palace during the time of Xu, the suspicion on him would be cleared up.

Guo Lu obviously didn't know what he wanted the show time for, but he still helped to contact his colleagues in the Ministry of Rites to inquire about it, and the news he got was that the time for the pipa dancer to appear on stage happened to be Xu time.

That is to say, during the time when Mei Yanran was killed, Pei Xiangyun stayed with him in the Qingping Palace, and even protected Emperor Hong Wen from becoming the assassin's soul.

The haze in Jiang Yi's heart relaxed a bit, and he sighed quietly.

Wu Zuo wrote down the autopsy results just now on a piece of paper, and Jiang Yi took it to Hong Wendi on business.

Guo Lu only helped run an errand during the whole process, and now he followed Jiang Yi with a guilty conscience, and said in a low voice, "Master Jiang, I'm afraid your student has been framed by someone based on the following officials' opinions in handling cases for years."

Jiang Yi didn't sleep the night before, and now he has a terrible headache, and his eye sockets are also astringent and swollen. Hearing the comforting words he said and didn't say, he forced a gentle smile with the corners of his lips: "Excuse me, Guo Shilang Auspicious words."

Guo Lu licked his lips, and became more courageous: "I was really frightened that night, but seeing Mr. Jiang's students are arrogant, they must be rare gentlemen. It is true that the students follow the teacher..."

Jiang Yi stopped in front of Danfeng Gate, and politely bowed to Guo Lu: "Does Shilang Guo have anything else to do?"

Guo Lu froze for a moment, then shook his head.

"Then the official will leave temporarily..." Jiang Yi said softly, "Thanks to Guo Shilang's help today, the Japanese official will come to thank you in person."

Guo Lu quickly shook his head and waved his hands, and even blushed, then watched the man drifting away into the distance.

But Jiang Yi's process of meeting Emperor Hong Wen was not smooth.

The eunuch on duty today is not the little Huangmen from last time, but Fu Yuze, the chief executive.

Fu Yuze was dressed in a blue-gray robe, embroidered with golden cloud patterns, very graceful and rich.

With a whisk in his hand, he knocked on his arm one after another, and looked at Jiang Yi lazily, obviously not paying much attention to him.

The previous dynasties were not without examples of powerful eunuchs leading to the subjugation of the country.Emperor Hongwen didn't want to be at the mercy of eunuchs, but Fu Yuze had been the late emperor's personal servant since he entered the palace at the age of 13.

Now that the emperor has changed, his status in the palace has not been shaken. On the contrary, because he knows many secrets in the palace and has a wide network of contacts, ordinary officials respect him a little.

Jiang Yi's expression darkened when he saw him, but he still greeted him according to the rules.

"Looking at Mr. Jiang's face today, our family is not as good as it was a few days ago..." Fu Yuze sized him up with a pair of small eyes, with malicious intentions, "Mr. Jiang, what is he in a hurry to do?" Well, don’t you even take a good rest? Our family feels that a pillar like Mr. Jiang must not be exhausted, if he is exhausted, it will be a disaster in the future.”

His words and sentences sounded like compliments, but there was a sense of yin and yang.

Jiang Yi was already in a bad mood, but now that he was blocked outside the door like this, he felt a bit of ecstasy, his eyes were faintly turbulent, but his face was still polite: "Thank you for your concern, Mr. Ten or twenty years of hard work is not a problem, as for you, Mr. Fu..."

The corners of his lips curled up slightly, revealing a gentle smile: "Where are you going in today's costume?"

"Concubine Xuan Gui is in a good mood today, so she asked our family to accompany her to Huafang Garden to appreciate plum blossoms and catch birds..." Fuyu Zepi smiled, "If Mr. Jiang is free, it would be nice to go with our family ?”

Jiang Yi smiled more and more gentlely: "I have something important to meet with the Holy Majesty today, so I won't bother the father-in-law and the imperial concubine empress. I just express my feelings. I think of a sentence in the "Book of Songs", which is very different from Fu Gonggong's plan for today's trip." It's appropriate."

Fu Yuze had never read a book, but he was willing to pretend to be very educated, and raised his round chin in an inscrutable way: "What poem?"

"Snake Snake speaks well, and it comes out of his mouth. He speaks cleverly and has a thick face."

After Jiang Yi finished speaking, he leaned forward: "If Mr. Fu has nothing else to do, can you let me go?"

Fu Yuze frowned suspiciously, looked at his back as he walked away, and smacked carefully for a while, but didn't understand the meaning of this awkward poem, so he asked the people around him: "You have read the book, tell me what he just said." What's the meaning?"

The little eunuch was indeed a private school attendant before purging himself, and now his face showed embarrassment: "This, this..."

Fu Yuze looked at the way he was swallowing/spitting, and felt that something was wrong, and his face collapsed: "Just keep talking, our family doesn't blame you."

The little eunuch's face was flushed with suffocation, and he murmured after a long while: "That poem said that you speak big words, don't use your energy, you can only flatter your horses, talk smartly, be thick... brazen, despicable and immoral."

Fu Yuze's fat face suddenly turned purple with anger, his upper and lower teeth were gritted, and it took a long time before he slowly let out a mouthful of foul air.

He sneered sullenly: "You go and find out what he is doing in the palace this time, and then come back and tell our family."

The little eunuch went away in fear, leaving him standing alone.

"What about the prime minister? What about the scholar? You are the only one who is noble?"

The evil fire in Fu Yuze's heart burst out again, burning his twisted heart with pain and hatred.

"Even the little emperor respects me three points, what are you? What qualifications do you have to judge me?"

Jiang Yi didn't know what the eunuch said behind his back.

When he came out of the palace, he only felt exhausted, and his temples ached again.

If nothing goes wrong, Pei Xiangyun will be able to come out of the prison tomorrow.

Even though he was unwell, he was still planning everything in his mind.The coachman got his order and drove the carriage very slowly to avoid bumps, and it was already the top of the moon before arriving at Jiang's mansion.

Jiang Yi helped the carriage down, and purposely went around the back door in order not to disturb Jiang's father who had already rested, but when he was about to push the door open, he suddenly heard a "rustling" sound from behind the bushes beside him.

The nerves in his brain tensed suddenly, his eyes were fixed, he reached out to touch the dagger for his body protection, and said in a deep voice: "Who is sneaking around here?"
