Yan Cigui Chapter 91

Shan Shen looked at his appearance and sneered in his heart.

If he hadn't known about Zhu Cheng's dealings with the king's servant and was definitely connected to the British public, he would have been deceived by this old man.

Shan Shen took the British Duke and talked for a while before giving up.

The British Duke hurried to the imperial study room with the paper in his pocket.

 “Please let me know,” he said to the waiter outside.

The waiter responded: "The Duke of Fu has just entered. Please wait a moment while I report to Eunuch Cao for you."

The British Duke's eyes widened suddenly.

Xu Jian went in?

 Earlier, he just said a few words to Shan Shen and then stayed for a while...

 The next moment, the British public reacted.

 What a dark place!

 Xu Jian and Shan Shen had a good cooperation!

These two people must be ahead of him. Could it be that Shuntian Mansion has grasped something?

 The British Duke took a breath of cold air.

 He took a step back.

Had I known that Shuntian Mansion was so quick, I should have made a response in the middle of the night instead of taking chances. Now I don't know if it will be too late to inform Zhu Chi...

The British Duke hesitated for a moment between going back immediately to make arrangements and taking a gamble. The little chamberlain had already passed the message inside.

 In the imperial study room, the atmosphere was very solemn.

The Holy Emperor accepted the case file handed over by Xu Jian. The more he looked at it, the more depressed he became.

Eunuch Cao looked at his nose with his eyes and his heart with his nose, but he didn't dare to take a big breath.

Xu Jian raised his eyebrows and said respectfully: "At this stage, oral confessions are still the main ones, and there is no additional evidence. It's just that the matter is huge and involves many things, so it was not raised at the court meeting."

The Holy Emperor raised his head and looked directly at Xu Jian with his sharp eyes: "In your opinion, how credible is the woman's confession?"

“The first ones to call out the gold bricks were the thieves. If they weren't sure there was a profit, they wouldn't dig it,” Xu Jian said. “And if it weren't for them, they wouldn't know that Zhu Cheng was involved in this matter.

It is said that the people do not fight against the officials. Li Yuanfa is just a businessman. He himself is in prison. He has no connection with him. Why bother with Zhu Cheng for no reason?

It should be true that he took people to dig gold bricks in Lao Shi Lane under Zhu Cheng's instructions.

As for the gold brick becoming a banned book, ten years have passed. I am afraid that the inside story can only be determined by finding the king's servant.

According to the account of the outer chamber, the master left the capital that year and the king's servants buried the gold. I concluded that the master was Li Mi, the fourth son of the late emperor. I think there is nothing wrong with this idea. "

The Holy Master looked at Eunuch Cao with a gloomy face: "There seems to be a chamberlain named Wang beside Fourth Brother, right?"

Eunuch Cao recalled it and said: "I remember that the great chamberlain next to me was named Ge. Eunuch Ge...yes, he recognized a nephew named Wang. He is very obedient in front of the saddle and behind the horse."

Xu Jian pursed her lips and thought to herself.

This big family loves to recognize relatives.

"When the man left the capital, the late emperor allowed Eunuch Ge to accompany him. The rest of the people were dealt with and dismissed," Eunuch Cao said again, "However, since he is his nephew, he can just handle some inconvenient things for Eunuch Ge. , it is indeed possible to bury gold.”

“I buried the gold, buried it and dug it up, but my fourth brother seems to have never stopped,” the Holy Master cursed and asked Xu Jian, “The recipe for Zhu Cheng's medicine to be poured into his wife's was given by the king's chamberlain?”

Xu Jian replied.

Eunuch Cao saw the little chamberlain peeking his head out, so he went out to ask, and then came back in to report: "Your Majesty, please see me."

"Let him come in," said the Holy Father, who was getting angry. "I want to hear what he has to say!" The British Duke came in. Without saying a word, he knelt on the ground and made a great salute. He presented the apology letter with both hands and apologized with a mournful face. What a big crime.

The Holy Father turned over his book and threw it aside.

"My dear, you are very old. I can't bear to see you come to admit your mistake to me for the sake of your son." He suppressed the anger in his heart and did not open the skylight to speak openly with the British father. "Go back. How should Shuntian Mansion resolve the human life lawsuit?" Just cut it off."

The British Duke stood up tremblingly and left.

 Xu Jian clicked her tongue inwardly when she saw his posture.

The Holy Father did not want to alarm the snake, but Xu Jian looked at the British Duke's reaction and saw that the other party had already understood something from the Holy Master's indifference, so he did not continue to pretend and let him go.

Of course, this further proves that the British public is definitely a participant.

 Hearing the Holy Master calling him, Xu Jian concentrated his attention and responded carefully.

"We have to dig three feet into the ground to find the king's servant. As for the whereabouts of my fourth brother, search as much as possible," the Holy Master instructed. "Zhu Cheng colluded with the deposed prince. This is a capital crime. He must be allowed to speak."

 Xu Jian responded.

“That child is in prison?” The Holy Master pointed at Eunuch Cao, “Go and see him in person.”

 On the other side, the British prince left the royal study and did not dare to rush back to the mansion without any further delay.

Zhu Chi was about to go to Shuntian Mansion. Before he could go out, the British Duke grabbed his hand and took him straight into the study.

"Shan Shen's investigation went deeper than we expected. The mouth in the outer chamber was not reliable and a lot of things poured out," said the British judge. "If we can't handle it well, our British government will be doomed."

Zhu Chi hurriedly asked: "What did you and your fourth brother do without telling me? Could it be that the gold bricks and other things that Li Yuanfa shouted about are all true?"

“More than just gold bricks…” the British Prime Minister muttered, “More than just gold bricks…”

 When Zhu Chi finished listening to the British Duke's story, he felt dizzy and almost lost his balance.

"Are you crazy? Do you still want to help Li Mi seize the throne? He is the deposed prince of the late emperor. Is he worthy?" He cursed in a low voice, "What are you trying to do? The position of Duke and hereditary succession have come to an end. , you can't go any further! You're tired of sitting, I haven't sat there yet!

"What do you know?" the British duke hummed, "Li Mi, Li Mi is worthy of him?"

 The second half of the sentence was spoken too softly and Zhu Chi did not hear it clearly.

"I don't know anything, and now I know I'm going to lose my head," Zhu Chi said angrily, "but tell me, what can I do to avoid this disaster now?"

“Yu couldn't keep it anymore, this bottle of stuff was put into the medicine…”

Zhu Chi took the porcelain bottle: "What is it? Can the poison not be detected?"

"It can't be found!" the British father said resolutely, "She has been ill for eight years. Has any imperial doctor ever questioned it? If this medicine is added, it will just silently dissolve with her current medicine. She has been ill for a long time. The body is at its end, so hurry up and don't wait too long. Things will be difficult if we really find out where the prince is."

Zhu Chi also knew that there was no need for procrastination. Even though he was quite dissatisfied with the way this was handled, he went ahead as he was told.

  Yu's yard is equipped with a small kitchen.

Zhu Chang didn't like coming here, but something happened to Zhu Cheng, and she felt panicked, so she decided to come to her mother to talk.

As Xu Xu was talking, he suddenly heard a greeting of "Mrs. Prince" from outside. Zhu Xiang was extremely surprised.

She got up and went out, only to see the aunt going straight to the kitchen. An idea came to her mind.

 Thanks to book friends Cha Shugu and Xu Bicheng's official girlfriend for the reward.
