Abandoned by the best children? I just take out the space
Chapter 1183 Take Them Down
Although following the dragon will cause many people to lose their families and be separated from their wives and children, the benefits of success are too great.
Although many officials were frightened by Wei Mingzhou's words, their active minds were not so easily extinguished.
"Who have you chosen? Why not introduce us to him?"
"We are third-rank officials after all. With our help, no matter how unwilling the Eighth Prince is, he will have to submit to the person you choose."
Those who wanted to earn the credit of following the dragon looked at Wei Mingzhou eagerly, as if they wanted to snatch the person he favored.
Wei Mingzhou faced these people's ferocious gazes and his face became gloomy for a moment.
"I don't want to take credit for following the dragon." After adjusting his mood, Wei Mingzhou said seriously.
One general's success is the result of the sacrifice of hundreds of soldiers. Just by thinking of these words, Wei Mingzhou knew how terrifying the merit of following the dragon was.
He was just a doctor. He didn't have the strength or courage to get involved.
"Your attitude just now was not like that." Someone immediately questioned Wei Mingzhou's words.
Chen Changli glanced at him and said in an unusually cold voice: "Doctor Wei just doesn't want you to fight among yourselves for the illusory glory and wealth. He doesn't want you to fail to understand his words and instead have wrong thoughts."
"You... Chen Changli, since the Eighth Prince is not here, do you think your wife can be cleared of suspicion of murdering His Majesty?" Upon hearing Chen Changli speak up for Wei Mingzhou, the person who felt that his thoughts had been exposed couldn't help but jump out to squeeze Chen Changli.
Chen Changli looked at him, and soon remembered that he had been close to Duke Huiguo, so he immediately frowned and said, "Sir Song, my wife and Doctor Wei have made it very clear that the poison in His Majesty's body was poured into him while he was asleep, and it has nothing to do with my wife."
His voice was very cold, but restrained and not harsh. "If you want to catch that man, you should ask Duke Huiguo."
"Why did you drag Duke Huiguo into this again?" The white-haired Minister of Rites said in a light voice, "Duke Huiguo is your Majesty's cousin, and they have a very good relationship. If something happens to your Majesty, he will be more worried than anyone else. How could he harm your Majesty?"
"Since Lord Shangshu thinks so, why don't you go and confront Duke Huiguo face to face?" Lin Jing couldn't stand the sarcastic words from these people, so he immediately stood up and spoke.
When these people's eyes fell on him, Lin Jing sneered unceremoniously.
"Why are you looking at me like that? Are you suspicious of me as the Eighth Prince does?" When it comes to the word suspicion, Lin Jing's face is full of sarcasm.
"Lin Jing, Duke Huiguo has a very close relationship with you. Aren't you afraid of hurting his feelings by suspecting him like this?" As someone who has a very good relationship with Duke Huiguo, he really can't bear to hear anyone wrongly accusing him.
"My Lords, regarding His Majesty's matter, I think no matter how long we discuss it, no one will be satisfied. In this case, why don't we first find a way to find the murderer and then deal with His Majesty's funeral."
Not wanting these people to waste any more time, Chen Changli directly mentioned the word "afterlife". He then quickly glanced at everyone, and seeing that their expressions looked a little strange, he sighed.
"It would be great if the Sixth and Ninth Princes were still here. When His Majesty gets into trouble and the Eighth Prince is unreliable, these two princes can step forward and take charge of the situation."
"It's a pity that they have already established themselves as kings outside. Even if we want to invite them back, I'm afraid they won't look down on Luoyang City."
"That's wrong." When Chen Changli mentioned the other two adult princes, someone who happened to have some connection with these two princes jumped out.
"Take them down."
Without Chen Changli saying anything, Lin Jing directly ordered people to capture those who couldn't wait to jump out, and then looked at the remaining officials with a tough attitude.
"The Sixth Prince and the Ninth Prince have long since fallen out with Your Majesty and committed treason. I never expected that there are still people among us who have connections with them."
"This shows that your Majesty's death was not simple. Perhaps Duke Huiguo was just an abandoned pawn, and the real murderer is hiding among us, trying to continue to stir up trouble."
"My Lords, I am not a vicious person, and I am even less likely to betray His Majesty, so I hope you will think carefully about what to do next and stop wrongly accusing others for your own selfish desires."
Lin Jing's tone was extremely firm, and without giving anyone a chance to react, he led the captured people away.
His strong attitude immediately intimidated the people with treacherous minds. They looked at each other, then retracted their gazes and said solemnly: "We will deal with His Majesty's affairs first, and then interrogate the arrested people."
Some of them were in contact with the two princes, but they remained calm and did not jump out at this moment.
Seeing that Chen Changli and Lin Jing cooperated well and wanted them to cooperate in a tough attitude, no matter how unwilling they were, they could only agree before figuring out the two people's trump cards, and make plans later.
Chen Changli didn't care what they were thinking. He agreed with Lin Jing and quickly arranged everything.
At this moment, someone exclaimed: "The queen has not been buried yet, her body is still in the palace."
As soon as these words came out, everyone was in an uproar. Then they looked at Chen Changli with an uneasy look on their faces and asked cautiously: "When you led people to break into the cold palace, did you send anyone to move the queen's coffin?"
Lin Jing was confused by the question. Ever since the strange man appeared in Luoyang City, they have been busy and confused.
Besides, the emperor was fine before and he didn't arrange anything about this matter. How could he and Chen Changli pay attention to this matter and arrange everything?
"Is there no one to move the queen's coffin?" Chen Changli felt shocked and ridiculous.
It has been a month since the strange incident broke out. In this month, has no one thought about the Queen's coffin?
"It was because the incident broke out too suddenly and the weirdo was so scary that we were frightened and hid in our own homes first, and then in the cold palace. That's when we forgot about it."
Seeing that even Lin Jing and others had forgotten about the queen's coffin, all the officials breathed a sigh of relief.
Anyway, everyone has forgotten about this matter, so if someone wants to cause trouble, they have an excuse to protect themselves.
"Lord Lin, you and Shufang handle His Majesty's affairs here. I will go to the palace to take a look at the situation."
"Be careful." Seeing Chen Changli running out in a hurry, Wan Shufang hurriedly reminded him, and then said to Wei Mingzhou, "Let's find a few people to clean up His Majesty first."
"I'll ask someone to help." Lin Jing responded immediately after hearing this, and then directed the other officials around.
They were setting up a mourning hall for the emperor in the cold palace. Chen Changli came to the somewhat dilapidated palace and soon arrived at the place where the queen's coffin was placed.
However, he only saw an open coffin and did not see the queen's body inside.
He had thought that the queen's body had been lying in state for such a long time that it must have rotted away.
But the queen's body was missing, and he couldn't help but wonder if there was a foul smell coming from the entire mourning hall.
"Who moved the Queen's body? Could it be Chang Xuewei?"
