Chapter 673 Rong Su Immediately Knelt Down to Receive the Order!
After boarding the dragon chair, the emperor's wise eyes glanced around, and then he said in a low voice, "Pingshen."
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
Everyone stood up together, and the courtiers who had already prepared memorials began to ask for memorials one by one.
The morning time passed quickly, and by the time all the business was finished, it was already close to noon.
Seeing that the time was almost up, the courtiers were all hungry as they should be. They were just waiting for the emperor to give the order to retreat. They saw the emperor closing the memorial in his hand, raising his head and saying: "There are some rumors in the palace today. Have you heard about it?" ."
The courtiers, who were already secretly thinking about the lunch menu, were stunned when they heard this, but they all lowered their heads and remained silent.
In this case, they really can't accept it.
If he said he had heard of it, didn’t he mean that he was inquiring about the secrets of the harem?
If you say you don't know, it is inevitable that you are lying. This ordinary lie is lying. Lying to the emperor is a crime of deceiving the emperor.
For a moment, the hall was extremely quiet, and no one made a sound.
In the end, the crown prince, who was still the first, took a step forward, bowed and said, "As the emperor said, there are frequent reports of hauntings in the harem today?"
The prince's mother and concubine are the queen, and even if the prince knows about the affairs in the harem, no one can make mistakes.
He opened this mouth better than anyone else.
The emperor glanced at the prince, leaned back on the dragon chair, and asked coolly: "What do you think about this matter?"
The prince said respectfully: "I think this is a big fallacy. The theory of ghosts and gods is absolutely ridiculous. It's just a few maids who misbehaved privately and contracted some diseases. They were sentenced to death by their masters. How could they cause such trouble for no reason? And died? Why did he get involved with ghosts? If there really is a ghost, it is impossible to haunt the palace. This imperial city is filled with dragon energy, what kind of monsters dare to approach? "
After hearing this, the courtiers secretly thought, could it be that there was really something wrong with the source of the information?
Didn't those palace maids die in mysterious circumstances, or were they given to death?
The emperor glanced at the officials, taking in the expressions of all of them, and then said: "Although this matter is pointless, the investigation of the Yuping case has indeed not been completed. I will hand this case over to the three divisions for trial. But I don’t know why, it hasn’t been solved yet?”
As soon as these words came out, Jingzhao Yin Linsheng was the first to jump out with sweat on his face. He knelt on the ground and kowtowed: "Your Majesty, I forgive you. I have tried my best on this case, but...the clues are real..."
"No suspect?"
Lin Sheng was shocked!
He originally wanted to protect Liu Wei's identity, but after hearing the emperor's words, he knew that the emperor must have known about Liu Wei's suspicion. He immediately did not dare to hide it and said bluntly: "The suspect has been detained, but the evidence is still..."
"If there is a suspect, why is there no evidence? If there is no evidence, how can we be sure that this person is a suspect?"
Lin Sheng felt like his heart was racing so fast that he was about to faint.
He stumbled and was speechless for a long time before he said: "Back to the emperor, this suspect was not taken into custody by a minor official, but was brought back by Eunuch Su and Princess Yuehai. This person was not taken into custody at Jingzhao Yin Yamen, but was taken into custody at Zhenge Gate. In prison, I dare not overstep my bounds, and I haven't summoned anyone to interrogate for a long time. I hope the emperor will forgive me."
These words expressed Lin Sheng's helplessness.
Although the emperor ordered the three departments to conduct a joint trial, including the Ministry of Punishment, Dali Temple, and Jingzhao Yin, the suspect is now being held at Zhengemen. Zhengemen is the territory of your emperor, and he is also a father-in-law in the palace. A princess brought it here. Who dares to interrogate prisoners casually? Aren't you afraid of bringing bad luck to the emperor?
The officials present also somewhat agreed upon hearing this and felt that this was the truth.
It sounds like Jing Zhaoyin didn't do much wrong, but the man on the dragon throne just snorted and suddenly said in a sharp voice: "Confused!"
As soon as Lin Sheng said this, his legs trembled and he lay on the ground unable to move.
The other courtiers also realized the emperor's anger and bowed one after another. The prince also spoke and asked the emperor to calm down.
But the emperor had a straight face and a cold voice: "What use do I have in raising a bunch of trash like you?"
At this moment, everyone knelt down and prostrated themselves on the ground, shouting loudly: "Your Majesty, forgive me, I will admit my guilt!"
"You know the crime, what crime do you know? The person has been captured, and there is no trial or questioning. What's wrong? My daughter is the one who was abused by you. She died inexplicably, and you don't even get justice after her death. Can’t even find it?”
This is too serious!
It actually involved blaspheming the name of the princess. Suddenly, Lin Sheng felt his head was confused, his body suddenly tilted to the side, and he passed away completely.
The emperor was furious and frightened an official.
This time, the palace was lively.
The emperor didn't seem to have expected Lin Sheng to be so timid. He frowned and finally said, "Take him down, I'm tired of seeing him!"
Soon a young eunuch dragged Lin Sheng down.
The court fell silent again, but this time, the emperor looked at the prince and the seven kings, hesitated for a moment, and said: "Eunuch Su is a member of the harem, not a court official. The princess is also the daughter's family. The three ministers have done nothing. I Look, this case can only be handled by others. Rong Ting, Rong Su, who among you is willing to take over?"
The prince and the seven kings stood up at the same time, cupped their hands and said, "I wish!"
This is what it means for both of them to be willing.
The emperor looked at the two people for a long time, and finally said: "Su'er, I will leave this case to you."
Rong Su immediately knelt down to receive the order!
That's it for now.
Rumors that the harem was haunted were dismissed by the emperor and the prince, and the case of Princess Yuping fell into Rong Su's hands.
When he went to court, Li Jun was indignant: "The emperor obviously did this on purpose. He knew that the prince had recently been in frequent contact with senior ministers in the court and had made some moves, and you and the prince had many branches, becoming a roadblock for the prince, so the emperor sent you Take it away from the prince, clear the obstacles for the prince, let the prince do it freely, and throw you into the case of the harem woman. What is this? Are you really not giving you the slightest chance? "
Rong Su knew Li Jun's mood.
Rong Su was also in a bad mood, but his father's preference for the prince was not something that happened in a day or two. Moreover, now, he was not the same person as before. He was not the only one relying on the emperor. He felt angry in his heart, but after a while, he felt angry again. It flattened out.
Rong Su patted Li Jun on the shoulder and said calmly: "It doesn't matter. Yuping is also my sister. It is right to give her justice."
As Rong Su was talking, he saw a trembling figure hiding next to the pillars outside the hall, looking around.
Rong Su frowned and called out: "Master Lin!"
Lin Sheng then walked out quickly and said hello respectfully.
Rong Su said: "You must have heard the emperor's decree. Let's go now. On the way, I will explain this case clearly to the king."
Lin Sheng responded quickly, but then added: "If the prince is eager to see the suspect, the minister can guide the prince. Speaking of which, the prince may still have some memories of the suspect. It was reported in Kyoto a few days ago. There was an uproar about the detective who solved the case of the missing child, Mr. Liu, Mr. Liu, who was finally adopted by the third prince as his own."
