Father, I really don’t want to be the emperor

After entering the yamen, he had to shed his skin even if he didn't die, so Du Yuesheng was so frightened that he lost half his life.

As the boss, there was no reason to let Du Yuesheng take the blame if something happened, so Ning Fan stepped in to save the person.

When the two Yamen officials heard Ning Fan's words, they did not dare to go against it.

One of the officials took the opportunity to come over and whispered to Ning Fan: "Your Highness, the Sixth Prince, I think it is unwise for His Highness to do this!"

"This matter is originally a matter of Wangyue Tower, but if His Highness comes forward, it will inevitably be involved."

"According to Dakang law, you have to report matters involving the royal family to His Majesty Shuntian Mansion!"

The other party's intention was very obvious, that is, to keep Ning Fan out of the matter.

However, Ning Fan really couldn't do such a heartless thing.

"You just follow your rules and I promise to cooperate."

Ning Fan didn't say much.

Watching the two government officials carrying the body away, several family members almost fainted from crying.

The deceased was still young, only in his twenties, and his wife who had just passed away was still pregnant. Many onlookers around him cried in sympathy.

"Sister, this is fifty taels of silver. You can take it back and use it first. Don't worry, if this matter is Wangyue Tower's fault, I will never cover it up."

Ning Fan walked over and personally delivered fifty taels of silver to the family of the deceased.

At this time, attitude is very important.

If one thing is not good, it will cause public opinion.

However, Ning Fan pays attention to what he says and does, and there is nothing worthy of criticism in handling this matter. Even several family members looked much better after receiving the money handed over by Ning Fan.

The remaining government officials immediately put a seal on Wangyue Tower, and all the items inside should be screened in the future.

Ning Fan didn't say anything. After comforting the family members, he took the shopkeeper and waiters of Wangyue Tower directly towards the house.

"Recall carefully all the unusual things that happened today, and don't miss any details."

Ning Fan walked into the courtyard and immediately said to Du Yuesheng with a livid face.

After all, Du Yuesheng is only a teenager. Although he has outstanding business ability and is very good at management, he is still young and has nothing to do.

At this time, he was so frightened that he sat down on the ground after hearing this.

"Your Highness, this matter really has nothing to do with me, and I don't know why he died."

Du Yuesheng has lost his ability to think.

At this time, my mind was filled with fear.

"Then tell me, in your opinion, was the deceased poisoned?"

Ning Fan asked again.

This time Du Yuesheng nodded immediately: "I am sure that he died of poisoning. The deceased's lips were purple, which is what he looks like when he is poisoned! But I am sure that our dishes are not poisonous. Otherwise, there would be no one with so many guests." People were poisoned.”

Du Yuesheng said aggrievedly.

What happened today is indeed a disaster from heaven.

"If you ask him, you won't be able to find out anything. We can assume a result and then work backwards to find the answer."

A cold voice came.

Ning Fan looked up and found that Xingchen was walking in from the outside holding Feiying.

Xingchen handed the horse's reins to Xiao Guizi and walked over, minding his own business. As he walked, he said, "As early as yesterday, I discovered that there was something wrong with the beggars in front of Wangyue Tower. They were not beggars at all. It's an obvious stalking."

When Ning Fan heard what Xingchen said, his brows immediately knitted into a knot.

"Go on."

Ning Fan said uneasily.

"There are only a few results. First, the deceased died of disease, which had nothing to do with food. Second, the deceased was poisoned by an enemy. Third, the deceased was poisoned for the purpose of marrying. Woe to Wangyue Tower."

"If the deceased was poisoned specifically to frame the case, how should we find evidence to prove our innocence?"

Xingchen asked Ning Fan a question.

"First of all, the food must be fine. Now let's check the dishes and chopsticks used by the deceased! If it is a strong poison, it will still remain even if it has been washed."

Ning Fan thought of a question.

While Ning Fan and Xingchen were discussing, several people walked in from the door.

The leader was none other than Li Chunan.

It's just that Li Chunan, who used to have a warm face, now looks a little ugly.

"Eunuch Li, why are you here?"

Ning Fan's heart skipped a beat, and he secretly screamed that something was not good.

"We are here to deliver the Holy Sage's instructions. Your Highness, please follow me into the palace to meet the Holy Sage."

Li Chunan said.

Ning Fan didn't expect that things would happen so quickly, and that Shuntian Prefecture Yin had already reported the matter.

"Eunuch Li, let me change my clothes. I'll be here soon."

Ning Fan didn't dare to neglect and hurriedly went to change clothes.

"Eunuch Li, no one expected what happened this time."

On the way, Ning Fan sighed.

Li Chunan said nothing, as if he didn't hear what Ning Fan said.

Ning Fan felt bored and stopped talking.

When they were approaching the Forbidden Palace, Li Chunan spoke in a low voice: "It's easy to hide from open guns, but hard to guard against hidden arrows! Your Highness, this is your first test. Think about what you will tell His Majesty later. "

Ning Fan nodded and walked towards the side hall with a serious expression.

At this time, Emperor Tian'an was in the palace. When he saw Ning Fan walking in, Emperor Tian'an's expression turned slightly cold.

"Ning Fan, you were sued for taking a life, do you know?"

Emperor Tian'an put down the memorial in his hand and looked up at Ning Fan.

"Father, I am currently dealing with this matter."

Ning Fan didn't say much.

I believe that Shuntian Fu Yin should have said everything that should be said and should not be said.

"Handle it? How do you handle it? Your response is to protect your subordinates?"

Emperor Tian'an's tone gradually became stern.

"Father, there is no evidence to prove who the murderer is. It is too early to arrest anyone now."

Ning Fan quickly and carefully explained to Emperor Tian'an.

"I don't want to get too involved in your affairs, but the lawsuit over human life must be clarified. I'll give you three days to get to the bottom of it."

Emperor Tian'an said with a serious expression.

Ning Fan didn't dare to argue. After immediately agreeing, he cautiously resigned.

It can be seen that Emperor Tianan was very angry about this.

The royal family was involved in a case of the murder of a poor man. This was a very complicated matter. If Ning Fan hadn't done several things recently to make Emperor Tian'an feel comfortable, I'm afraid today's situation would have been very difficult.

The more he thought about it, the more uncomfortable he became. Ning Fan couldn't sleep at all, so he took Ergou straight to Shuntian Mansion at night.

Ning Fan wants to personally participate in the autopsy.

"Your Highness, are you sure you want to watch Wu Zuo's autopsy in person?"

Shuntian Fuyin confirmed again and again.

Ning Fan has a special status, and he can't bear it if he is frightened.

"Master Li, let's start quickly."

Ning Fan didn't say much nonsense, just found gauze and covered his mouth and nose.

Wu Zuo is a middle-aged man in his fifties, with a hooked nose and indifferent eyes.

The sharp knife in his hand easily opened the belly of the deceased.

Ning Fan could even hear the sound of skin and flesh being separated, which made his scalp numb.

Then, an indescribable smell filled the room.
