The old lady is reborn

Chapter 143 Two Ding Qings

Ding Qing's confession was recorded only a few sentences before an important identity connection was revealed: "My brother Ding Jing is the guard of the Crown Prince of the Eastern Palace. Can you please help me check if my brother and my parents are dead?"

Rong Huaian and his colleague in charge of the interrogation looked at each other and confirmed in surprise: "Are you Ding Jing's sister?"

Among the three bodies was the body of a young woman, who was believed to be Ding Jing's sister.

And now she was sitting across from them in a living state.

Colleagues from the police station accompanied Ding Qing to visit the homes of Ding Jing's neighbors and to confirm with the head of the village in charge of the residence in order to clarify Ding Qing's identity.

After coming back with confirmation, Dali Temple Minister Zeng Chen had already received the news and rushed to the Jingzhao Yin Police Station.

Upon seeing Huai'an, Zeng Chen couldn't help but ask, "Are you coming to our Dali Temple? You are doing a part-time job here. If you come to the Dali Temple, I will give you a proper job.

It's better to say it out loud, and the salary is higher than here."

Huai'an thought about how he still had endless schoolwork to learn, and his mother Song Ying expected him to take the imperial examination in two years, and she wanted to get first place instead of third place. So, he thought it would be better to have a part-time job.

He said to Zeng Chen: "You still need to study on weekdays. There are too many things to catch up and learn. I'm afraid it's better to do it part-time."

Zeng Chen did not give up: "If you are willing to do it part-time, the Dali Temple can also give you a part-time job, and you only need to come once every three days.

We have lunch at Dali Temple, and the food is very good. My wife helped me to arrange a chef..."

Before he finished speaking, someone said, "You are such a jerk, you came here to dig people up right under my nose!

You, the Dali Temple, are so busy that you don't even have time to take a rest, and you are still fooling around. Are you providing them with food? You are just letting them finish their meal so they can get back to work."

Ren Jun, the most important person in Jingzhao Yin, has arrived. He probably heard that Zeng Chen had arrived and was afraid that he would bully his subordinates, so he hurried to meet him. After all, Ren Jun had dug too many traps and was afraid that he would trap his subordinates.

When Zeng Chen saw Ren Jun, all his old hatreds and new ones surged up in his heart: "How dare you say that? Check your conscience. How many people did you trick from my Dali Temple?

The Dali Temple is so busy right now, don't act like nothing happened!"

Seeing that the two were about to fight again, colleagues from the police station brought Ding Qing back.

The two paused their argument and listened to the questioning of Ding Qing. After listening, everyone thought the same thing: the woman who kidnapped Ding Qing was the key to the case. Who did she work for?

From what is known now, we can roughly infer that the mastermind behind this had the parents and sister of the East Palace guard Ding Jing captured, and then threatened the lives of the three of them.

He made Ding Jing betray his master. After Ding Jing's death, the mastermind probably feared that the matter would be exposed, so he killed his parents and sister to silence them.

The police officer asked Ding Qing, "Did your twin sister tell you where she worked and who she obeyed?"

Ding Qing shook his head and said, "I haven't heard her say that."

Zeng Chen and his friends came out to discuss: "That's fine, since they look the same, someone must have seen them before.

Let's ask the emperor for an order to take Miss Ding Qing to the guards of the princes and ask if anyone has seen a woman with the same appearance as Ding Qing."

Ren Jun was a shrewd man, and he quickly said, "You were appointed by the emperor to supervise this case, so it's appropriate for you to go. I won't get involved, as I have a lot of things to do here."

Zeng Chen said, "If it weren't for Jingzhao Yin arresting these human traffickers, this case would have been stuck here. Since you are the one pushing for it, someone from you must go there."

Ren Jun had no choice but to say, "Then let Huai'an follow you. I will send another team to take Ding Qing with you."

The group first went to the East Palace. After hearing Zeng Chen's purpose, the prince waved his hand and said, "Let the butler take you there."

Zeng Chen and Huai'an came out, and together with their colleagues from Jingzhao Yin, they took Ding Qing to the Eastern Palace Guard Office.

However, the guards of the Eastern Palace suffered heavy losses at Eagle's Beak Cliff, most of whom were later recruits. Many of them shook their heads when they saw Ding Qing, saying they had never seen him.

So a few people went to the residences of the third prince and the fifth prince, and the situation was the same. They said they had never seen it.

Going to the Second Prince's residence, the Second Prince's guards escaped the life-and-death disaster at Eagle's Beak Cliff, and most of the old people were saved. Someone recognized this face: "She is the guard of His Royal Highness the Third Prince. That year, she pointed her sword at the guard of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, and the Crown Prince knocked off her mask, revealing her face."

After hearing this, Zeng Chen asked the Second Prince to come and identify the person. The Second Prince also remembered that this was indeed the case, but he did not pay attention to what the woman looked like at that time.

Zeng Chen asked Huai'an to lead the Jingzhao Yin's men and Ding Qing to the Prince's Mansion to ask the Prince to meet Ding Qing; he himself went to the palace to meet the emperor and ask for his instructions.

The Third Prince’s Mansion was soon surrounded by the Imperial Guards.

Ever since Zeng Chen brought Ding Qing here and asked the guards to identify the person, the Third Prince knew that Jingwei had acted on her own and let her sister go.

He ordered his men to kill Jingwei immediately and dispose of the body as quickly as possible, preparing to deny his responsibility to the death. There was no such person in his mansion.

But before being killed, Jingwei suddenly smiled miserably: "Your Highness, I am Ding Qing. Killing me is useless. My sister can still identify Your Highness.

Before the incident at the steamed bun shop, my sister went to see me and proposed to exchange identities with me in order to rescue me.

I believed it and just wanted to escape, so I changed clothes with my sister and came to you as she instructed.

I didn't expect she wanted me to die. But it doesn't matter, you killed my parents. My brother and I also died because of you, but you can't run away either."

The Third Prince's usually calm face showed an angry expression: "Other people's eagles can catch rabbits, but the eagle I raise can peck at the master's eyes."

No matter who the woman in front of him was, the Third Prince stabbed her with his sword.

After the Imperial Guards surrounded the Third Prince's mansion, no one came in. The Imperial Guards just surrounded him, and it seemed that no one wanted to talk to him.

After being trapped for three days and almost having a breakdown, the Third Prince still gritted his teeth and refused to plead guilty, saying that the so-called murder of siblings Ding Jing and Ding Qing had nothing to do with him and that it was a frame-up against him by Zeng Chen and Jingzhao Yin together with other princes.

But two days later, a servant from the Third Prince's Mansion went out to kowtow and plead guilty, and left the Prince's Mansion. From then on, servants would spontaneously leave every day, kneeling outside the gate to confess their crimes.

Hearing that his mother, Concubine Kang, had handed over the list of generals in the army in order to ask His Majesty to spare the life of the Third Prince, His Majesty burned the list in public without even looking at it.

My father is furious.

After hearing this, the third prince left the chess record and asked someone to present it to his father. Those who wanted to play chess with his father, forget it, because they were not worthy of it.

The third prince committed suicide.

After Concubine Kang found out, she also cut herself off from the palace.

Your Majesty took the list of military generals and secretly issued a decree to the Wang father and son, ordering them to be defeated one by one and captured in one fell swoop.

The generals thought that His Majesty had burned the list to inform the world that he would not pursue the matter any further and would not shake the army. He would only punish the main culprit and let the subordinates go. They were all secretly happy. After all, we were doing real work in the army, and His Majesty should also consider this...
