Just in time for rain [恰逢雨连天] - Chapter 26

[26. Chapter 25]

Hearing this, Zhao Yan spit out all the tea he had just eaten.

Care too much, there must be tricks.

He knew that his mind was a little dirty, but he didn’t want to watch Liu Chaoming go down the evil road, and interrupted: “This is not necessary, if there is something really wrapped up in this matter, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince would have been kind and reasonable. , I have all the courthouses lined up horizontally, wouldn’t it add to His Highness?”

Qian San’er said again: “Lord Liu, Lord Zhao, it’s not the most strange thing that His Highness the Thirteenth sent two guards away.” He glanced at The two court officials said with expressions on their faces, “The strangest thing is that not long after these two guards left Yingtian Mansion, they disappeared.

” Was someone robbed, or ran away halfway?”

Qian San’er shook his head and said, “I don’t know, we have a secret letter from Lord Wei, and the news is faster, and it is estimated that the East Palace will know it early in the morning. What about this.”

Zhao Yan and Liu Chaoming looked at each other and asked, “What do you think?”

Liu Chaoming thought for a while, and after calculating the route to the northwest, he ordered: “I order Jiangxi, Shanxi, and Shaanxi. The censors must pay attention, if they find traces of these two guards in the territory, they should report it immediately without delay.”

Su Jin sorted out the clues in his heart again.

Xu Yuanzhe said during his lifetime that Chao Qing had been to Xunyuelou once in early April, and the day he disappeared was the ninth day of the fourth lunar month.

Death row inmate Zhang Kui said that on the seventh day of the fourth lunar month, he was knocked unconscious while “touching the corpse” at the mass grave.

One disappeared and the other died, both of which were related to Xunyuelou, and it was only two days before and after. It was hard to believe that the two cases had nothing to do with each other.

In order to prove that he was only seeking money and did not kill, Zhang Kui hid the jade pendant from the corpse in a crack in the wall of the prison of the Ministry of Punishment.

And this jade pendant is now being handed over to her by Zhu Nanxian, and it has become the only proof she has.

This shows that Zhang Kui said that he was slandered, which is probably true.

If he was wronged, then the old lady of Xunyuelou who slandered him for murder out of thin air must know something.

The twilight was sinking, Su Jin thought of this, and said that he was going to rest, and said goodbye to Zhu Nanxian.

When Zhu Nanxian’s figure disappeared at the entrance of the alley, Su Jin quickly turned around and ordered, “Aqi, prepare the carriage.” He glanced at Zhou Ping who was standing beside him, and suddenly smiled: “Gao Yan, change your position as an official. robe, accompany me out.”

Zhou Ping was horrified by her sudden smile, but she didn’t dare to delay seeing her urgent appearance, and hurriedly changed the official robe, Su Jin was already sitting in the carriage of the carriage Waiting for him.

Liu Yichu stood at the entrance of the government office and asked, “Where are you two going?”

Su Jin let Zhou Ping into the car, and said without changing his face, “Brotherhood.”

Liu Yichu hurriedly took the tea bowl to Aqi Holding it in his hand, he chased a few steps and climbed onto the carriage: “Pick me up, take me.”

At the beginning of the moonlight, Qin Huai’s voices were sung in the ten miles.

Su Jin tied the horse outside the workshop and walked all the way to the Xunyue Tower.

Zhou Ping’s lungs hurt from her anger, and she walked all the way to blame: “You never indulged in sensuality before, how did you get into such a bad habit after entering the palace?”

Su Jin glanced at him and couldn’t help explaining. : “I’m here to handle the case.”

Zhou Ping couldn’t believe it: “You’re here to handle the case? Why do you wear civilian clothes and I wear official uniforms when you come to handle the case? You are so worthy of me, do you know what it is to be arrested for seeking pleasure for an official? Punishment? Even Master Sun, who treats this place as her mother’s family on weekdays, only dares to call herself a salt merchant and never reveal her identity.”

Su Jin wanted to explain a few more words to him, but then he thought about it. In the morning, Shen Qingyue told him that he was a chorus worker in the Ducha Yuan, and he believed it. Later, Zhu Nanxian told him that he was a captain in the palace. Believe it, why is it his turn to be so suspicious?

Su Jin felt that the relatives hurt the enemy quickly, and he was too lazy to explain to him, and said lightly: “Why do you wear official uniforms? I don’t understand? My high-ranking official is supporting the scene.” Liu Yichu, who was leading the way, turned his head and said, “Stop arguing.” He raised his finger and pointed to the pavilion on the side, “Here it is.” Compared with the peaceful Hefang at the other end, the Xunyue Pavilion’s

courtyard

Very deserted, if the door is not still open, it is just closed to thank you.

Looking in from the outside, there was a woman sitting in the hall of the pavilion, holding a butterfly-embroidered fan, swinging one after another, but there was a pipa player on the platform on the left. .

Su Jin followed the words just now, and slapped Zhou Ping on the back: “The waist is straight, the chin is raised, and I have the style of an official.

” Jin looked back with a serious look. She lowered her voice and said, “I’ll tell you later that you are the chief Zhou of the Punishment Department. You must not reveal your secrets, remember.”

The woman sitting in the hall shaking a fan saw Su Jin and the three came in, and one of them was wearing an official robe. He couldn’t help but say in surprise: “Several masters are—”

Su Jin stood with his hands behind his back, and interrupted her coldly: “This is the head of the Ministry of Punishment Zhou, you are The prostitute in this building?” When the

woman heard this, she hurriedly made a wink and asked the Pipa girl to come over, and the two of them knelt down and bowed with Su Jin and the other three, and then said: “If you go back to this lord, the slave family is not a Yuan. Sister Er, Sister Yuan Er left a few days ago.”

“Gone?” Su Jin was taken aback and glanced at Liu Yichu.

Liu Yichu immediately opened a chair and said, “Sir, sit down.”

Zhou Ping nodded and sat down according to the words.

Su Jin didn’t speak either. He took a teapot and poured a cup of tea for Zhou Ping, and put on a posture of trial: “What’s the matter with you? What about other girls?” The

woman looked suspiciously. Looking at the three of them: “This…isn’t it precisely because the Ministry of Punishment has tried the case a few days ago?” Su Jinling glanced at her, and she hurriedly lowered her head, Nuonuo explained: “It’s about the beginning of April, we Ning Yan’er, the top brand here, died strangely. Sister Yuan’er, the prostitute asked by the adults, was called by the Ministry of Punishment to ask a few times, and suddenly said that she was going to get married, so she packed her bags and left. The girl in the building felt unlucky, They all went to seek refuge in other Hefang gatehouses, only the slave family and sister stayed.” After speaking, he glanced at Su Jin, his face blushed: “If the eldest, the adults are just here to seek pleasure, the slave family and sister will also be able to serve.

Su Jin was speechless, and after a pause, he asked again, “Then what family did the prostitute mention marry?” The woman

lowered her eyes and said, “That’s not true, but like us, if we don’t meet, we can really If you are distressed, then marry an official, a wealthy businessman as a concubine.”

Su Jin nodded, and then asked if he had ever seen a scholar-like person come here.

It’s a pity that there are too many scholars. She is afraid of being scared by the grass, and she is not good at mentioning Chao Qing’s name.

Su Jin sighed in his heart, and said to Zhou Ping: “I’m in charge of your lord, the subordinate has finished asking questions, and there is nothing suspicious.”

Zhou Ping said “um”: “Then… let’s go back first.” The

two women Along the way, the three of Su Jin were sent to the outside of the Xunyue Building, and the one holding the fan called again, “Sir.”

Su Jin turned around.

The woman hesitated for a while, and asked, “Is your lord really from the Ministry of Punishment?”

Su Jin was startled, but his face was expressionless: “Why, this official is here to ask questions, do you still want to check the official seal of this official? ?”

The woman hurriedly knelt down and said, “Your Excellency has misunderstood, this is not what the slave family meant. It’s just that around the beginning of April, several officials, both big and small, came to ask about a scholar, and not long after that, the number one in our building died. Now, the slave family remembers that one of those officials is from the Ministry of Punishment. And they also said that if the Ministry of Punishment does not ask the case in the future, other yamen will have to know the adults who have passed the Ministry of Punishment.”

Su Jin’s heart froze . .

The reason why she let Zhou Ping wear the official uniform and call herself the head of the punishment department is to guard against this.

After all, Zhang Kui’s case was just an ordinary murder case. It was unreasonable for such a case to be directly handed over to the Ministry of Justice for review without passing the capital’s yamen.

According to this woman’s words, before the top player Ning Yan’er was killed and Chao Qing disappeared, someone from the Ministry of Punishment was involved in the case.

Su Jin asked, “Do you still remember the names of the scholars mentioned by the officials?” The

woman said, “The last name is Chao, Chao… What’s up with Chao.”

Su Jin was shocked and said again: “Can you? Remember what those officials looked like?” The

woman shook her head: “At that time, the slave’s family was far away, and I only remember that there were tall, short, fat and thin people. I can’t describe it.” He raised his eyelids again and glanced at Su Jin, his face flushed again, “There is no one with such outstanding character as adults.”

Liu Chaoming looked over the archives of Chunwei so far, and found a few Zhuang You is suspicious, and one of them is the case of Zhang Kui.

Because Zhang Kui used to be a deputy of the capital yamen, in order to avoid suspicion, this case did not go to the Yingtianfu yamen and went to the punishment department.

Liu Chaoming thought of this and glanced at Qian San’er.

Qian San’er understood and immediately replied: “Don’t worry, sir, I have already sent someone to invite him. I think Ying Tianfu Yin Lord Yang is on his way.”

Liu Chaoming nodded and said, “I asked you to find it before. Zhang Kui was brought out of the prison of the Ministry of Punishment, but Shen Xi you are looking for?”

Qian San’er said, “Isn’t that what you told me? I was afraid that there would be ears on the walls of the Ministry of Justice, so I asked this ‘Prince Prince’ of the Ministry of Justice to pick up someone.” After a while, he said in surprise, “Master Liu, Master Shen is doing your business for you. Are you afraid of being unreliable?”

Liu Chaoming shook his head slightly, but he always felt something was wrong.

At that time, it was precisely because of this case that he avoided the capital’s yamen, that he suspected that the punishment department was not safe enough, and turned to Shen Xi to bring people up.

Although Shen Xi is the son of the Minister of Punishment, he has kept a hand for himself inside and out, and each department has placed his own eyeliner. Therefore, it should not be a problem for him to privately bring an ordinary death row prisoner from the prison of the Punishment.

Liu Chaoming originally thought of handing Zhang Kui over to Su Jin and letting the capital yamen go to find out the clues. How could he know that Su Jin was too seriously injured on the day of the trouble, and the Thirteenth Highness happened to be here, so he shoved the death row prisoner to Zhu Nanxian.

In other words, it was purely an accident that he transferred the death row to Zhu Nanxian that day.

Liu Chaoming thought of this, and his doubts suddenly sank.

Since it was an accident, why didn’t what happened later look like an accident?

Thoughts are like tea that is gradually being boiled, the steam in the pot is steaming, and as long as the lid of the tea is lifted, it can spew out.

Just one hand to uncover.

Liu Chaoming looked up at Qian San’er: “Go and invite Lord Shen.”

Shen Qingyue Lord Shen was having tea at the capital’s yamen, and he came with him, as well as the eyeliner he placed in the Punishment Department, who was Liu Chaoming’s execution prisoner that day. outside the staff.

The prefect of the government, Sun Yinde, stood by and waited respectfully. When he saw Su Jin and the three of them “seeking joy” back, he gave them a stern look, and then put on a smile and said, “Shen Shilang, Governor Su has returned.”

Shen Xi nodded slightly. Turning his head, this time the official sect took it all: “Let’s all retreat.”

Sun Yinde took Zhou Ping and Liu Yi and Chu Nuonuo to retreat, and then Shen Xi rolled his eyes and said to Su Jin, “Governor Su, I just wanted to say a word to you recently.”

Su Jin said: “Sir, please tell me.”

Shen Xi took his chin and pointed to the chair next to him. When Su Jin sat there, he said, “Are you secretly investigating the case of Ke Shizi’s disappearance?”

Su Jin was stunned. He looked up at Shen Xi.

Shen Xi giggled: “Why, are you curious why a servant of the household department knows about this?” He said to Lu Yuanwai, who was sitting on the other side, “He told me, and also told me that Zuo Du of the Duchayuan. Lord Censor also opened a small stove for you, and made an exception to bring you a crime from the prison of the Ministry of Punishment?”

Lu Yuanwai said indifferently: “Shen Shilang said, it is clear that Lord Liu found you first, and then you ordered me to pick up the person. “Xiaguan doesn’t listen to everyone’s words…” Before

he finished speaking, Shen Xi glanced over at the second half.

Shen Xi smiled again, and said to Su Jin: “This is your case. How you like to investigate, this officer doesn’t care. There is only one point, you can’t start with the Yan family.”

Su Jin was stunned: “Why?”

Now it has been confirmed that Chao Qing The disappearance is indeed related to Xunyuelou, but unfortunately the housekeeper of Xunyuelou is nowhere to be found. If you want to investigate this case, the best policy is to turn around and start with Yan Ziqi, and find out the reason why Yan Ziqi went to find Chao Qing on the day of his disappearance.

Shen Xi said: “Have you found out that Ning Yan’er, the top brand of Xunyuelou, is dead?”

Su Jin said: “Yes.”

Shen Xi put down the tea cup and stood up: “Okay, this official will tell you clearly that this Ning Yaner, has something to do with the Yan family, but this is a family scandal of the Yan family, even if you investigate it, it will reveal the scars of others.”

Su Jin raised his eyebrows: “Then according to Lord Shen’s intention, Yan Ziqi went to Chao Qing that day, Is it because of Ning Yan’er, who had something to do with the Yan family, but died in vain?”

Shen Xi shook his head: “This official doesn’t know.” He turned around and rolled his eyes again, “I have no idea about this case. Not very interested.”

But the smile in his eyes quickly faded, replaced by a strong, indiscernible emotion, like the tide rising and falling under the night moon, “You were in the Palace Front Garden that day, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince. If I want to kill you with a stick, in the end, even if Liu Yun bought your life with the power of the Metropolitan Police, if it wasn’t for this official, you probably wouldn’t have gotten away so easily. Do you remember this favor?”

Su Jin said: “Yes It’s time to thank Lord Shen.”

Shen Xi said: “Thanks are waived, but that Yan Ziyan grew up with this official, but he always opposed this official and became an enemy for a lifetime. I said east, he will go west, I said that the official was innocent and was beaten, but he said that the official was guilty, but he wanted to take this calamity to investigate. Now that he is on fire, he deserves to die.

“He is lofty, hypocritical, and pretentious, and treats himself as a celebrity. Merry, noble and elegant, the most important thing is reputation. If you find out from this case that the Yan family has something to do with a firework girl, wouldn’t it make the Yan family’s reputation discredited and make the world laugh? At that time, I am afraid that this Yan Ziyan will come to toss the official after being a ghost. When

Shen Xi said this, he suddenly blinked at Su Jin, and then put on an unpredictable smile: “So, this official came to ask you for a favor, so that I can sleep every night in the future. It feels so good to not be harassed by that nasty ghost, and the clues of this case will pinch the Yan family? ”

Su Jin was stunned for a moment when he met Shen Xi’s gaze, and asked, “When will Yan Shaozhan be executed? ”

Shen Xi stared at her for a while, and when he heard the question, he nodded and said, “Okay, that’s all you have done, and this official replied. “He turned his head to look at Lu Yuanwai, who was standing beside him. “What are you doing, you left.” Lu Yuanwai hurriedly put down the

tea cup, walked to Su Jin, and couldn’t help but bowed: “Mr. Su, I’m really sorry, I came to the capital Yamen to pick up people that day, and I didn’t want to embarrass you. But Ma Shaoqing from Guanglu Temple is of a higher rank than me. I heard from Lord Shen that you are still injured, and you have suffered. Su Jin gave a nod back and said, ”

Lord Lu is very polite. It’s a routine business, so why can’t I say sorry.” ”

Lu Yuanwai said: “Actually, this official knows that on the day the official made trouble, Governor Su not only had no faults, but also meritorious deeds. If the person who came with me that day was someone else, that’s all, but I still have some relationship with this Ma Shaoqing. No, today Ma Shaoqing put a full moon wine for the child, saying that it will be three days and three nights, I’m going now, he still blames me for being late.”

After saying that, he gave Su Jin another nod before leaving with Shen Xi. to the capital yamen.

Xu Shi was nearing the end, and it was already dark outside.

Just as Shen Xi was about to get on the carriage, he seemed to have thought of something. He glanced at the sky and asked, “Ma Shaoqing’s house is still serving Moon Wine at this hour?

” I am very happy, saying that it is going to eat for three days and three nights, in order to add light, all the ya divisions have invited the officials, and I heard that even the Minister of the Ministry of Personnel is also going.”

Shen Xi raised his eyebrows: “Zeng Shangshu is also going. Then why didn’t this official receive the invitation?”

Lu Yuanwai smiled and said: “Lord Shen, look at what you said, what is your identity, you are the servant of the household, the relative of the crown prince, so how dare Ma Shaoqing follow you? Handing the invitation. It was Zeng Shangshu, and Ma Shaoqing’s nephew who entrusted Master Shangshu to ask for it, so he didn’t dare to send the invitation.”

Shen Xi smiled and said lightly, “Yes.” On the carriage.

The driver whipped the whip, walked a few steps and was stopped, Shen Xi opened the side curtain, stuck his head out and said with a pleasant face: “By the way, Lu Yuanwai, I heard a while ago that you took two concubines, but also for a while. I didn’t have time to congratulate you, I will come to your house to congratulate you in person another day.”

Lu Yuanben had already walked towards Ma Shaoqing’s mansion, and after hearing this, he quickly turned back, bowed three times to the carriage and said, “Sir Shen, the truth is Let me tell you, I’m not afraid that you will feel embarrassed by Xiaguan. Xiaguan accepted these two concubines, and chickens and dogs dance in the back house. Xiaguan really doesn’t even want to go home. No, just go for a drink. ”

Shen Xi smiled again and lowered the curtain of the car.

The carriage started running from the bluestone road again, and the smile on Shen Xi’s face disappeared the moment he sat back in the carriage.

This Lu Yuan was the eyeliner he placed in the Ministry of Punishment, and he had always been very relieved.

But from today’s clues, it seems that something is not good.

Lu Yuwei raised his eyebrows with his wife, Shen Xi had always heard of it, so when he heard that he had taken a concubine, he was surprised, but he didn’t think too much about it. After all, as a man, having three wives and four concubines should be .

But Shen Qingyue was born with a clever mind, and he would secretly send someone to check on things that should be taken for granted.

The two concubines are a pair of sisters, and their net worth is innocent. There is only one thing wrong. They are also distant cousins of the Seventh Highness’s new concubine.

However, when a woman married into the emperor’s family, she was already separated from her own family, not to mention a thousand miles away. Who knows how many layers of twists and turns are separated by this so-called cousin.

At that time, Shen Xi thought about it, and he didn’t take it seriously.

But now that I think about it, it’s not right.

Lu Yu was an official and a member of the sixth grade, but Su Jin was only a governor of the eighth grade. It was Lu Yu who wanted to see Liu Chaoming’s face and explained to Su Jin that he was neglected that day, why he explained the details here. Woolen cloth? He even mentioned the chores that he wanted to go to Ma Shaoqing’s house for a drink.

Shen Xi couldn’t understand, he vaguely felt that these thousands of threads seemed to be a series of nine, but he thought about it, but he was just going around in one of the links.

On that day, Liu Chaoming asked him to find someone to bring the prisoner from the punishment department, so he found Lu Yuwei.

If Lu Yuwei was serious about his concubine’s relationship with His Highness the Seventh, then what was the meaning of him deliberately involved in so many family affairs in front of Su Jin?

Shen Xi felt that things were very bad, he lifted the curtain of the car and said to the driver: “Turn around and enter the palace, go to the courthouse, hurry!”

Su Jin sent Shen Xi away, remembering that Xu Yuanzhe’s grandma was resting in his room, and he was heartbroken. The next time I was sad, I planned to spend the night in the back room of the Retreat Hall, but I didn’t expect that before I got to the Retreat Hall, I was grabbed by Sun Yinde under the corridor.

Sun Yinde and Su Jin were accustomed to confrontation, but at the moment they seemed to be eager to talk but not asking for others. Your lord is actually quite close?”

Su Jin greeted him with a salute, and said lightly: “I’ve only met him a few times, and Lord Liu has asked the lower officials a few times on business.”

Sun Yinde pulled Su Jin aside. Under the low eaves, he asked again: “Then look, can you help this official to plead with Master Liu and let him be accommodating to this official?”

Su Jin raised his eyebrows: “Master Sun, what did you do? Xiaguan help me to intercede?”

Sun Yinde saw that she had the appearance of a villain, and he wished to strangle her to death, but he couldn’t show a trace of dissatisfaction on his face, and said like a spring breeze and rain: “It’s nothing, after this official is on duty. From time to time, I go to the Qinhuai workshop to have some fun, and tell the people under Mr. Liu to find out some clues and pass on the official to ask questions.”

Su Jin silently broke away his hand and said: “This official can’t help the adults. The adults are looking for fun, and the subordinates are still helping to intercede, doesn’t it make people think that our capital yamen are the same raccoon dog?” After speaking, he turned around and went to the retreat hall.

Sun Yinde followed and took a few steps, then grabbed Su Jin and said, “Governor Su, you are also a man, why don’t you understand how wild flowers can smell in your home?”

He glanced at Su Jin and continued, “Besides, this officer is still Okay, I’m just going outside to find some fun. Let’s just say that Ma Shaoqing from Guanglu Temple, he is not ordinary. It’s not enough to find some fun outside, and I want to bring this fun home. The prostitute of Xunyuelou insisted on marrying him back home as a concubine, but in the end he was too old to marry and was still locked in the firewood room to be abused. Do you think this is abominable? Is it worse than this official?”

After Su Jin listened to this whole nonsense, there was only one sentence in his ears: “You said that Ma Shaoqing married the maid of Xunyuelou?”

Sun Yinde spread his hands: “Yes, if the Superintendent wants to take care of it, just go and take care of Ma Shaoqing first, and keep an eye on him. What is it that you don’t let a good official like this official go.” After a slight pause, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, “Governor Su, then see if you have said a word or two to Lord Liu and asked him to be accommodating. accommodating?”

Su Jin’s heart was rumbling, like rolling thunder after another.

She felt inappropriate, not why, just because it was all too coincidental.

Why was she still worried that she couldn’t find the madam of Xunyuelou, and now someone pointed a clear way for her? The prostitute was in Ma Shaoqing’s mansion, and Ma Shaoqing was holding a full moon wine for three days and three nights, and he felt at home.

It was like inviting her to go with the door open.

Su Jin knew that she should not go, but the thunder in her heart was even louder. If she hesitated at this moment, missed the most important clue and missed the opportunity to find Chao Qing, how could her conscience be at peace? What kind of humiliating attitude to live with?

Back then, she was gracious to Chao Qing when she was in the most difficult time, but now he is in the most difficult situation, how can she just let it go?

That’s all, it’s just a bet on a life, and it’s worth it now.

Su Jin thought of this, and bowed his hands to Sun Yinde: “Sir, Xiaguan will consider it carefully. Xiaguan is going to rest now, and I will come back to my Lord tomorrow.”

However, although she said “rest”, she turned around and walked away. The direction outside the government office.

Seeing her figure disappearing outside the mansion, Sun Yinde suddenly smiled and said in a low voice, “That’s it.”

Two people dressed in yamen clothes came out of the other wing of the Retreat Hall.

Sun Yinde instructed one of them: “Go, go to the mansion of His Highness the Thirteenth Highness, and tell him that Governor Su went to Ma Shaoqing’s mansion and is in danger.”

The man nodded, and disappeared in a flash. at night.

Sun Yinde said to another person again: “Go back to your Highness and tell him that everything is as he expected, please rest assured.” Liu Chaoming closed his

eyes and recalled the incident when Su Jin was almost poisoned in the Duchayuan.

The inner servant who delivered the medicine must have come here to keep his mouth shut, there is no doubt about that.

Before coming to the Duchayuan, Su Jin had been to three places, one, Zhan Shifu; the other, Zhu Nanxian’s mansion; and the third, the capital Yamen.

Something must have happened in one of these three places that made the inner servant who delivered the medicine so panicked and chose to do it at the Metropolitan Prosecutor’s Office.

It is impossible for Zhanshifu and the capital yamen, so it can only be Zhu Nanxian’s residence.

Liu Chaoming knew that the death row prisoner Zhang Kui was in Zhu Nanxian’s mansion, and Su Jin went to see him.

Although Zhu Nanxian is simple-minded, he is not stupid, so he shouldn’t advertise that he has taken in a death row prisoner in his house, right?

Moreover, the people in Zhu Nanxian’s palace were carefully selected by Zhu Minda, and there should be no mistakes.

If Zhu Nanxian didn’t publicize it, how did the person who ordered the servant to poison | kill Su Jin knew that Su Jin had met Zhang Kui in the house of His Highness the Thirteenth?

Liu Chaoming thought of this, and his heart sank.

No, there is one more person!

This person has been like a bystander in this bureau from beginning to end, but he has been there since the day when the official made trouble, from carrying the death row prisoner Zhang Kui to Suzaku Lane, to leading soldiers to the capital Yamen to pick up people in the middle of the night.

Lu Yuwei, a member of the Ministry of Punishment.

A flash of light flashed in his mind, Liu Chaoming suddenly opened his eyes, at the same time, the door of the duty room was pushed open, Shen Xi broke in, and said with a heavy sigh: “Liu Yun, I’m afraid it’s a bad thing. It’s gone!”

[End of This Chapter]
