My wife is not a demon

A pair of fists were clenched and rattled.

Chen Mu handed over the vase carefully: "This porcelain is called Wanshou Tianqing. I bought it from a merchant in the Western Regions for 5 taels of silver. I came here to give it to Master Suzaku. I hope Master Suzaku can live forever. green……"

"Then thank you, Master Chen."

Hei Ling gritted his teeth, hugged the vase he bought from a porcelain shop for 300 taels of silver with a stiff smile in his arms.

When I thought about sending him back in the afternoon, I wanted to hit someone.

After the guards brought tea, Chen Mu revealed the purpose of the trip: "Master Hei Ling, how is the interrogation of Eunuch Fang?"

Ever since Eunuch Fang was arrested by Hades, Chen Mu was still very concerned.

People who can keep accounts are definitely not small people.

There must be a big fish behind it.

I just don't know how many fish can be pried out by Eunuch Fang's mouth.

"died."

Hei Ling's face was expressionless. "Poisoned and died."

Chen Mu was stunned, and said in disbelief, "He died from poisoning? If he was locked up in Zhuque Hall, he would also be poisoned? What about Yu Gonggong and the others?"

Hei Ling took out a case file and handed it to him: "Eunuch Yu and the others have already been released, and there are basically no cases to investigate. As for Eunuch Fang, he is indeed involved in a lot of things behind his back. Moreover, our Vermillion Bird Hall is not airtight. "

It seems that there is also an internal response from the West Factory in Suzaku Hall, this is really playing Infernal Affairs.

Chen Mu took over the case file and read it carefully.

I don't know if I don't read it, but I was shocked when I saw it. This father-in-law is involved in quite a lot of cases.

Back then when the Japanese pirate case was involved, he was not a big official, but he was able to sneak into the military camp, because he secretly accepted a lot of money and betrayed the Tianci Army.

With the money, he managed in all directions, and finally stepped up to the post of the Kyoto police.

At the same time, he also whitewashed the deserter Leng Tianying, and created a heroic figure to use for himself and expand his power.

In addition, there are bribes, framing local parents and officials, and even interfering in the battle against bandits in Tonggao Prefecture, etc.

This is replaced by other officials, and those who die can no longer die.

Chen Mu frowned: "There are so many cases, and you haven't found them on weekdays? Didn't even notice the slightest abnormality?"

"There are not many people in the officialdom who are clean. It depends on whether you can hide your tail well. If you can't catch it, it's free to rely on suspicion."

Hei Ling put the vase on the table and said helplessly. "What's more, he is an official of arrest affairs and has the power to supervise local officials, so it is not easy to investigate. Even if we find out these cases through the ledger, they are only superficial, maybe they are not his crimes at all?"

Hearing Hei Ling's words, Chen Mu's eyes flickered slightly.

In other words, Eunuch Fang may only be used to take the blame, and some of the cases he committed were scapegoats for others.

"What does the Queen Mother say?"

Chen Mu asked curiously.

Hei Ling smiled faintly: "The Empress Dowager just asked us to continue the investigation, but there is no need to be too urgent, just let nature take its course."

really!

This is not what Chen Mu expected.

Rumors about the civet cat prince have become more and more popular these days, and even the case of Pingyang Palace has only lasted for three or four days.

It is obvious that the queen mother is building momentum behind her back to prepare for the upcoming little emperor's personal administration.

There is no need to dig into Eunuch Fang's case at this time.

"By the way, Mr. Chen, there is a case in the ledger involving your Zhenmagic Division. It is a person surnamed 'Ji' who secretly sent a bribe to Eunuch Fang. June [-]rd."

Hei Ling pointed to a piece of information in the case file and said. "I sent a piece of blood mother ginseng essence. If you are interested, you can check it out. After all, you are from the town magic department."

Blood mother ginseng essence! ?

Chen Mu, who was drinking tea, suddenly focused his eyes.

He looked down, and the ledger records showed that on June [-]rd, Eunuch Fang received a box of 'Blood Mother Ginseng Essence'.

The surname of the sender is Ji.

As for the latter name, there is no record.

This is interesting.

After Xu Wuqing's death, a blood mother ginseng essence was found in his body. According to Yun Zhiyue, it was used to make puppets alive.

But now, Eunuch Fang has also received ginseng essence from the blood mother.

Is it a coincidence?

Chen Mu quickly recalled the previous information in his mind, raised his head and asked, "Master Hei Ling, has Eunuch Fang's body been checked?"

"Of course it was done. After he died of poisoning, we conducted an autopsy."

"Have you found blood ginseng?"

"Not really." Hei Ling shook his head.

"you sure?"

"If you don't believe me, I can ask someone to bring the corpse over, but you have to be mentally prepared, after all, the corpse looks a bit horrible."

Hei Ling said lightly.

Chen Mu hesitated, smiled and shook his head: "No need."

There are many masters in the Vermillion Bird Hall, and the inspection of the corpse is basically infallible. If there is no such obvious thing as blood mother ginseng essence, it means that Eunuch Fang has not taken it.

Either it's still hidden in the mansion, or... it's given away.

Thinking of this, he asked, "Master Hei Ling, you should have copied Eunuch Fang's house."

"Ah."

"Did you find blood mother ginseng essence when you ransacked the house?"

Hei Ling shook his head: "No, this gift was not found in the record book."
