   Chapter 230 Thorough Investigation (2)

  This night, I don’t know how many people tossed and turned and couldn’t sleep.

   Mr. Qiao Ge was equally angry.

   The Qiao family has long been in the same camp as the second prince. If Lu Mingyu is good or bad, it will be a fatal blow to the second prince. From an emotional point of view, he would never want to see his grandson's daughter-in-law have an accident.

   What's even more hateful is that the assassin picked Qiao Wan's wedding day.

  The news of Lu Mingyu's assassination spread to Qiao's mansion, and everyone's color changed. The happy event could not be interrupted, but it also lost the joy.

   Mrs. Qiao forced a smile, and after sending all the guests away, she asked Mrs. Qiao: "Who instructed the assassin to assassinate the second prince and concubine?"

  Qiao Ge snorted coldly: "There are only a few people left and right."

   "I have already received the news that the King of Xingyang entered the palace to face the Holy Spirit, and the emperor summoned the Minister of Punishment to enter the palace and ordered the Ministry of Punishment to solve the case within three days."

   Mrs. Qiao gritted her teeth and said bitterly, "This person is really **** good."

  Qiao Ge old sneered again: "It's really damn. No matter what the emperor is willing to bear, this is a rare opportunity. I will file a memorial tomorrow, and ask the emperor to severely punish the murderer!"

  Fighting is the housekeeping skill of military generals, and impeachment in memorials is the forte of civil officials.

   Old Qiao Ge, as the head of the civil service, took the lead in making a memorial and publicizing the matter, which was also putting pressure on Emperor Yongjia in a disguised form.

   If you want to protect the murderer, you have to see if the Lu family and the Qiao family agree!

   Mrs. Qiao didn't know much about the affairs of the court, so she didn't talk too much, just sighed: "Tomorrow I will enter the palace to comfort the empress."

  Old Qiao Ge nodded: "Let the empress must be steady! This matter is no longer in the hands of the harem. Let the empress show the bearing of the empress of the middle palace and wait patiently."

   paused and then said, "Don't think about the bureau of punishment tonight. I'll send someone to take the post to the bureau of punishment!"

  …

   The Department of Punishment was indeed in chaos.

  Yang Shangshu of the Punishment Department is not tall, with a plain appearance, he is usually cheerful, and he looks a little kind-hearted. But a smiling tiger. In the punishment department, everyone is in awe.

   After Yang Shangshu returned from the palace, he immediately summoned everyone in the punishment department. Some Sanya returned home or quietly went to drink flower wine, and they were all pulled back.

   Yang Shangshu's small eyes swept across the faces of everyone with different expressions: "The emperor gave the Ministry of Punishment three days. The case has not been solved within three days, everyone here, don't ask for a black gauze hat."

   The officials of the Department of Punishment did not dare to show a bitter face, and responded in unison: "Please send the Master Shang Shu!"

  Yang Shangshu has been a minister of the Ministry of Punishment for many years, and he is very handy in investigating the case. Immediately ordered, the investigation was divided into three lines. One is to start with the corpse of the assassin, and have an experienced corpse examine the corpse to find out what the poison is.

  The second article starts with the relatives and relatives of Zhao San of Chu Da, and thoroughly investigates the identity and origin of the two people and who is instructed by them.

  The third rule starts with the people on the street that day. Carefully check the people who are present and witness, if there is any doubt, you can't let it go.

   That night, no one in the Punishment Department slept. The common people merchants involved in this case were sent to the prison of the Ministry of Punishment one by one. Zhao San's family was repeatedly interrogated.

   The waiter of the Ministry of Punishment, who went to the Lu Mansion to ask for the assassin's corpse, was not troubled either. Butler Lu happily brought the four corpses over.

However, when the Ministry of Punishment wanted to take away the girl with the broken leg, Lu Jia whispered: "That girl is stupid, she only looks like five or six years old, and can't even speak. Shentang Yao fell asleep. When tomorrow, I will personally send the person to the Ministry of Punishment."

   The waiter of the punishment department did not insist, and returned to the punishment department with the corpse first.

   The Ministry of Punishment has the best work of the Wei Dynasty. After examining the body overnight, the old man who is over forty years old has been found to be highly poisonous. This is a deadly poison called "Thousand Machines".

   This strange poison is so poisonous that it can kill people in a few breaths when blood seals the throat. So highly toxic, it is extremely complicated to formulate. It still came out occasionally. Then disappeared.

  I didn't think about it, and today it's exposed to people again.

   Don't say anything else, just say this strange poison, you can conclude that the person who does it is by no means easy.

   After a night of torture, there were some gains.

  Chu Da seems to have appeared out of thin air, and his identity cannot be found for a while. There are many people who know Zhao San. And Zhao San has a father, mother and relatives, these people can always ask some news.

   Zhao San is actually a member of the Zhao family. When he entered the barracks that year, he was kicked out of the barracks because he gathered a crowd in the middle of the night to gamble for money. In the past few years, under the banner of the Zhao family, I have done a lot to bring disaster to the village.

  Everyone swallowed their anger and paid the money, not Zhao San, but the Zhao family. Zhao San and a steward of the Zhao family also had a close relationship.

   Yang Shangshu of the Ministry of Punishment stayed up all night, went to court the next day, and reported to the emperor what he had come to inquire about overnight.

  Emperor Yongjia looked gloomy and glanced at Marquis Puyang.

Puyang Hou's temple jumped suddenly, and his face was ugly: "Yang Shangshu, you can eat rice indiscriminately, but don't talk nonsense. There are not thousands, but hundreds of Zhao clan members. I don't even know what he looks like when he has five clothes. Do not know at all."

   Yang Shangshu's expression remained unchanged, and he cupped his hands and replied: "The emperor ordered the Punishment Department to solve the case in three days. The Punishment Department has been busy all night, and for the time being, there is only so much to find out. The minister will say whatever he wants, and he has no intention of arguing with the Marquis of Puyang."

  Isn't this **** crap? !

  The Marquis of Puyang was furious, pointed his finger at Yang Shangshu's nose, and scolded angrily: "Bah! The emperor asked you to investigate the case, but you found me."

   "His Royal Highness the second prince is my nephew, and the second prince concubine is my nephew's daughter-in-law. I hope they are too late, how could they do such appalling things!"

   "Who the **** did you instruct you to throw dirty water on me!"

The Marquis of Guangping pretended to come over and grabbed the Marquis of Puyang who had rolled up his sleeves and was about to do it: "This case has not been figured out yet, so don't rush to get angry. It's not up to you."

   Puyang Hou Tieqing sneered and said pointedly, "That's right. Whoever did something wrong, who knows in his heart. Don't think of blaming me!"

  The Marquis of Guangping didn't seem to hear what Puyang Marquis meant, and continued to persuade him to make peace.

   Xingyang King Lu Lin also went to court today, he didn't say anything, his sharp black eyes fell on the face of Puyang Hou Guangping Hou.

  Elder Qiao did not sit back and watch Yang Shangshu be humiliated, and said in a deep voice, "Yang Shangshu has been investigating the case all night, and today is to inform the emperor about the process. If the two princes are not satisfied, they should respect Yang Shangshu."

   When Puyang Hou sprayed Yang Shangshu without hesitation, he was a little more polite to the first assistant, and put down his sleeves angrily.

   Guangping Hou also closed his mouth and stopped fanning the flames.

Old Qiao Ge said to Emperor Yongjia, who had an ugly face on the dragon chair: "In the ninth year of the Wei Dynasty, the capital has been relatively stable. There has never been such an evil act as an assassination of a prince and concubine in the street. Please the emperor severely punish the murderer and justify Wei. "
