Luo Wenge finally scooped up a spoonful of white fungus, and said vaguely while eating, "How dare I."
"This is the last bowl you eat. If you want to eat it later, you and Zooey need to tell each other in person."
Luo Wenge's eyes lit up, and he tried to pretend to be calm and said, "Really?"
Seeing this, Xiao Yulan smiled lowly and said, "If you don't care, then I will let Zooey continue to prepare."
Luo Wenge couldn't pretend to be calm, and quickly said: "No, no, Aunt Zooey has so many things to do every day, and she has to find time to cook soup for me. It's too hard. As a man, I eat this food every day. People know how to joke."
"Luo Shaoqing still cares about other people's opinions?" Xiao Yulan teased.
Luo Wenge put down his spoon, and rarely said seriously: "Don't care, live with your heart."
Xiao Yulan admired his chicness, and pointed to the soup that he deliberately refused to eat: "If you don't want to eat it, let Zooey take it out."
"Don't waste it, I can finish it soon." Luo Wenge said.
He knew that Xiao Yulan wouldn't care about this, but because of his habit, he wouldn't waste it.
Xiao Yulan left it to him, he said he could finish the meal, so Xiao Yulan naturally wouldn't spoil people's appetite, seeing that he ate almost the same, she turned to talk about it before interrupting the topic: "How do you feel seeing Xu Jinyuan?"
"She is very similar to that mysterious pavilion master." Luo Wenge said in a pertinent tone.
"Like it doesn't necessarily mean it's not." Xiao Yulan said.
Luo Wenge also knew that there was not enough evidence to prove that Xu Jinyuan was the mysterious pavilion master, so he wanted Linjianglou to investigate the similarities or connections between Xu Jinyuan, the pavilion master of Tianming Pavilion, and Mr. Yuan.
If Xu Jinyuan really had nothing to do with these two people, he would send someone to Jiangnan according to the other party's wishes, provided that Xu Jinyuan was willing to go.
If it turns out that those two are Xu Jinyuan, then...it seems like he can't do anything.
Not to mention Xu Yingping standing behind Xu Jinyuan, her status as queen alone is enough for him to drink a pot.
What's more, there was also the matter of entering the palace under the guise of Xu Jinyuan's identity.
Immediately, there is a feeling that it is not true after checking, and it is not true if you do not check.
At this time, Xiao Yulan's attitude became very important. As long as Xiao Yulan nodded and let him investigate, no matter how absurd the matter was, he would not panic.
Therefore, Luo Wenge moved up a small stool and sat closer to Xiao Yulan: "Your Majesty, do you think I want to check Xu Jinyuan?"
Xiao Yulan stared at him: "If I say I won't investigate, you won't investigate?"
"That's the way it is. If you check her and find out something terrible, I can't get it to the end. Wouldn't it cause big trouble?"
"Is there anything in this world that you Luo Wenge can't accept?"
"Your Majesty, to be serious, I vaguely feel that the real investigation of Xu Jinyuan will lead to many unknown conspiracies."
Luo Wenge's intuition is quite accurate, at least after coming here, whenever there is intuition, it is basically verified.
Therefore, in the matter of investigating Xu Jinyuan, it was difficult for him to make a choice because of his intuition.
He had the so-called intuition that caused concerns, but Xiao Yulan did not.
Xiao Yulan's advantages brought about by her rebirth came into play at this time, but he would not tell Luo Wenge openly.
"Cha, it's best to follow her to find out the faction of the Xu Party. Don't worry about finding out the truth that you can't figure out. Don't forget, there is me behind you, and I will support you."
Perhaps it was because he had been strong for too long, Luo Wenge suddenly heard the word support, and was quite uncomfortable.
Luo Wenge didn't quite remember whether Xiao Yulan had said such words before, but this was the first time he heard it so clearly, and it was unforgettable.
It is said that people should know how to assess the situation. Luo Wenge saw Xiao Yulan speak so happily, and took advantage of the victory to ask: "If Xu Jinyuan is really the master of the Pavilion of Destiny, how does His Majesty plan to deal with her?"
"It depends on how Luo Shaoqing wants to deal with it." Xiao Yulan said with a smile. Although he can't be called Qiqiao Linglong, he is somewhat more transparent than ordinary people. Moreover, the person who is asking questions is something he gradually understands. People, the mind is easy to guess.
Luo Wenge didn't have the slightest sense of embarrassment in being guessed, and said generously: "The minister thanked His Majesty here first, and with His Majesty's words, the minister will have someone conduct a thorough investigation in a few days, and he will definitely be dug out. .”
"Xie Wenxuan has news about Mr. Yuan, if you want it, go and get it." Xiao Yulan provided convenience for him, depending on whether he needed it or not.
How could Luo Wenge let Xiao Yulan's good intentions go to waste, he said with a smile: "Thank you for your advice, I will go to the Metropolitan Procuratorate tomorrow to look for Mr. Xie."
Xiao Yulan couldn't help laughing, and found that he was more and more comfortable cooperating with her, and the relationship between the two of them was also getting better during this period.
This can be regarded as a rare good sign among many troubles, and it can also be called having fun while suffering.
Thinking like this, Xiao Yulan looked at Luo Wenge who had finished drinking the soup, and her heart warmed up. She only hoped that one day she would rule the country and look back at him still by her side, so that would be good.
Perhaps because of Xiao Yulan's will, Jing Zhaoyin's actions were faster than expected. The next day when the court was over, Jing Zhaoyin went into the Hall of Mental Cultivation with a memorandum to report the death of Prince Yun's male favorite.
The more Xiao Yulan read the memorial, his expression became more condensed. When he saw the end, he closed it suddenly: "Cao Cheng, do you know what your memorial is about?"
"I know." Cao Cheng bowed his head and replied in a deep voice.
"You said that the man was killed by King Yun, do you have evidence?" Xiao Yulan asked.
Cao Cheng put down his hands, looked at Xiao Yulan, and said neither humble nor overbearing: "I have not."
Xiao Yulan laughed when she heard that, and threw the memorabilia on Cao Cheng, angrily said: "You dare to say without evidence? Cao Cheng, I think you don't need to wear the black hat of Jing Zhaoyin!"
"Your Majesty calm down, the lack of evidence is not due to the ability of the subject, but the situation is compelling, please listen to the subject one by one." Cao Cheng knelt down and begged with speed that is not what an elderly person should have, he knelt down in the blink of an eye.
Xiao Yulan really wanted to kick the person away earlier, but this matter should not be overdone, it needs to be done step by step.
He also wanted to hear what kind of sophistry Cao Cheng could say, so he said angrily, "Say, I want to hear if you can name a flower."
Cao Cheng was sweating in his hands, he wrote the letter according to the facts, thinking that Xiao Yulan was anxious to know the result, so he didn't show it to Shen Jue.He knew in his heart that Shen Jue might not be able to pass it.
Having worked for Shen Jue for more than ten years, Cao Cheng knew very well what kind of person he was.Zoushu must not write the truth.
But to play fake in front of Xiao Yulan, it is very likely that he lost his head before he walked out of the Hall of Mental Cultivation.
Mr. Li, who was beheaded by the Ministry of Rites and ransacked his house, sounded a very loud alarm for them. Cao Cheng did not want to be the second Mr. Li.
Anticipating the consequences of handing over the memorial, and also anticipating Xiao Yulan's anger, Cao Cheng was only betting on the fact that he was not sure about his defense.
Fortunately, this blog is right.
Cao Cheng said softly: "I found out that King Yun took the deceased to Ruanrou Lane three days ago. He searched for flowers and asked willows for two nights and three days in a row. Until the night before last night, he couldn't take it anymore so he didn't go again. Before dawn yesterday morning, King Yun wanted to take the deceased again. The deceased went, and the deceased claimed that he was not feeling well and did not want to go, which made King Yun very unhappy, and he said a few more words about him, but the deceased retorted a few words in a low voice, which made him lose his temper."
Xiao Yulan's half-curved smile was too cold: "It would be too reluctant to say that King Yun killed someone because of this."
"The minister asked Yun Wang's servants, and said that the prince brought back an interesting object from Wenrou Lane, and he would lock it in the room with the deceased to enjoy it when he had nothing to do. Whenever he used it, the prince said that he seemed to be in the air, and he didn't worry about anything anymore. , but when the effects pass, they will become extremely irritable, and whoever refutes will be severely beaten or even seriously injured."
The sneer on Xiao Yulan's face disappeared. Hearing Cao Cheng's words reminded him of something extremely harmful to people in his previous life.
He rubbed his fingers back and forth several times, and asked coldly, "Did you find out where it came from?"
This is when we really got to the point, Cao Cheng's expression changed, and he said respectfully, "Taohuawan in Wenrou Lane."
"Have you investigated?" Xiao Yulan couldn't sit still, she got up and walked back and forth.
From this, Cao Cheng judged that Xiao Yulan was very concerned about this matter, and put his heart into his stomach, and said the excuse he had prepared a long time ago: "No, Taohuawan refused to be searched by the minister and others because of the fact that there was someone behind him, claiming that he wanted to find out three people. One of the justices will go there in person, otherwise even if the Heavenly King Lao Tzu comes, he will not recognize him."
These words accurately hit Xiao Yulan's back.
Xiao Yulan laughed back angrily: "Sanfa Division? Okay, I will grant his wish. Eunuch Li."
Eunuch Li, who had been listening quietly for a long time, stepped forward: "The old slave is here."
"Decree to Xie Wenxuan and Luo Wenge to see you." Xiao Yulan said coldly.
Eunuch Li got the order, turned around and ran out, and when he was about to reach Di'an Gate, Xiao Yulan's voice sounded again: "Let Murong Yu, the right servant of the Ministry of Punishment, come along with you."
Eunuch Li realized that this was really going to be a joint trial by the three divisions, so there was no delay, so he ran away in a hurry.
Cao Cheng was dumbfounded by Xiao Yulan's boldness in speaking one after another. A simple provocative sentence brought the three justices together?
Cao Cheng belatedly realized that this seemed to be a bit exaggerated.
Maybe Xiao Yulan didn't know who was the backer of Taohuawan, but he knew it all.
It was opened by Xu Yingping's adopted son.
If it is true that the three divisions will interrogate, let alone Xu Yingping's son, even Xu Yingping will have to be involved, then there will be more people involved, and there is no guarantee who will be burned when the fire is strong.
Cao Cheng thought about it for a second, Xu Yingping has always been at odds with Shen Jue, isn't his move the same as using Xiao Yulan's hand to help Shen Jue get rid of his thorn in his side?
Thinking of this, Cao Cheng felt that his provocative words were just right.
Cao Cheng thought he was using a knife to kill someone, but he didn't realize that he was being used by Xiao Yulan instead.
Xiao Yulan is still suffering from not having the opportunity to provoke Shen Jue and Xu Yingping to fight. She tried to use the harem to influence the former court before, but the effect was not satisfactory. She is still thinking about it. Cao Cheng came to give the opportunity, and the fool would not take advantage of it.
Wenrou Lane, Peach Blossom Bay.
A good name, but I don't know if it can survive after being visited by the Sanju Division.
"Your Majesty, I think it's a bit of a joke to propose a joint trial of the three divisions just because of a prostitute's nonsense?" Cao Chengyou felt that the force was not strong enough, and took advantage of Eunuch Li's spare time to give Xiao Yulan eye drops.
Xiao Yulan pretended not to notice, letting Cao Cheng take advantage of it and acting obediently: "I see that the place is going to be turned upside down by no one. Earlier I heard that Ruanrou Lane behaved very outrageously. I didn't expect to kill people this time. If you don't want to cooperate well, and if you don't want people to rectify well, I'm afraid you will really despise the king's law!"
"Your Majesty's words are very true. I was filled with righteous indignation and wanted to force people to break in. However, there are not enough manpower. I am really ashamed." Cao Cheng said with a face full of annoyance.
The implication of this is that Taohuawan not only did not cooperate, but also raised many guards with martial arts without authorization, so that they dared to compete with the officers and soldiers.
It has to be said that although Cao Cheng is passive and sabotages work, no one can match his careful planning and meticulous thinking.
Xiao Yulan sneered inwardly, if Shen Jue knew what Cao Cheng did in the Hall of Mental Cultivation today, he might have to vomit blood three times.
"I blamed you wrongly, and I am here to compensate you."
"Ai ai ai, Your Majesty, if you can't do it, it's a matter of your duty. I just hope that your Majesty will thoroughly investigate Taohuawan." Cao Cheng said righteously.
Xiao Yulan bent her lips and said in her heart: Even if you don't say it, I will do it.
It was rare for someone to pass the steps so well, Xiao Yulan happily accepted it with a smile, and followed Cao Cheng's voice: "Cao Aiqing, don't worry, I will let the three justices handle it strictly, and no one who is guilty will be spared."
"Your Majesty's sage is the blessing of all people." Cao Cheng knelt down and saluted, as if he was honored to have such a wise king as Xiao Yulan.
Xiao Yulan looked at Cao Cheng with pity, and sighed in a low voice: "Cao Aiqing, please, I just did what I should do."
It was indeed what he should do. Cao Cheng had made all the arrangements, and he was just cooperating.
Cao Cheng, who was really sold and counted the money for him, stood up obediently, still complacent about having accomplished such a great event, stepped aside and looked up at Xiao Yulan.
Received Xiao Yulan's gentle smile, Cao Cheng also followed suit.
The two laughed with their own deep meanings, but one was real, and the other was a fake who was foolishly paving the way for others and didn't know it.
For the time being, they are all happy.
With Eunuch Li handing down the imperial decree, Luo Wenge and others came very quickly.
Luo Wenge met Xie Wenxuan at the outer gate of the palace, and both of them nodded lightly as a greeting. When they saw Murong Yu, whom they were not too familiar with at ordinary times, Luo Wenge was much more restrained.
Murong Yu has an elegant demeanor, and when he smiles, it makes people feel like a spring flower. Although he works in the Ministry of Criminal Justice, he doesn't have the bloody smell that is unique to the Ministry of Criminal Justice.
That being said, no one dared not to take Murong Yu seriously, and heard that the officials of the Ministry of Punishment closed the door and jokingly called him a smiling tiger.Regardless of the pleasing smile, stabbing a knife is absolutely unimaginably ruthless.
This person has a clean family background, and in today's situation where there are factions all over the court, he resolutely insists on himself, and it is really rare for a person with a strong heart.
Now that Luo Wenge saw Murong Yu, he guessed that Xiao Yulan wanted to make a big move.
Could it be that Jingzhaoyin Zhayun Wang's male favorite was killed, and found some opportunities to take advantage of?
Otherwise, how could people from the Sanju Division be summoned to have an audience?
While thinking, the Hall of Mental Cultivation was close in front of him, Luo Wenge put away his thoughts, nodded and lowered his eyebrows, and entered.
In the hall, Luo Wenge caught a glimpse of Jing Zhaoyin standing at the side, and followed Xie Wenxuan and Murong Yu to salute Xiao Yulan: "I have seen Your Majesty, long live Your Majesty."
"Exemption." Xiao Yulan said.The attitude towards Luo Wenge should be treated equally in front of others, and no selfishness should be hidden.
Thinking this way in my heart, it was inevitable that my eyes would wander to Luo Wenge a few more times when I spoke: "This is a tricky case that needs to be investigated jointly by you."
Luo Wenge and the three looked at each other, and Luo Wenge, who had recently been rumored to be a celebrity before His Majesty, stepped forward and said softly, "Please give orders, Your Majesty."
"The posthouse murder case will be handed over to the three of you from now on. Be sure to investigate the matter clearly. I want to know the cause and effect of the whole incident. All those involved in the murder case will be arrested and brought to justice without any omissions."
When they heard that it was a homicide in a posthouse, let alone Luo Wenge's expression changed, even Xie Wenxuan's expression, which had always been stable, changed slightly. Among the three, only Murong Yu was the calmest.
"I heard from Cao Aiqing that there is a place called Taohuawan in Ruanrou Lane. The shopkeeper is very arrogant and said that if you want to investigate that place, you need one of the three judicial departments to go in person. I thought I only let the Metropolitan Procuratorate or the Ministry of Punishment go. He also said that the three Dharma divisions should arrive together, so I simply let you come together, so as not to have to go back a few more times."
The corners of Luo Wenge's lips twitched, and he cast a sympathetic look at Cao Cheng, who was still full of complacency when he was mentioned there.
If the posthouse homicide case really needs to be taken over by the San Judicial Division, then it is guaranteed that the matter will not be closed for a while.
If the murder case cannot be concluded, the persons involved will not be allowed to leave Beijing.
It seems that Xiao Yulan was not joking when she said that the Ministry of Rites should make preparations, she really planned to let the feudal lords spend the New Year in Beijing.
Later, he had to probe Xiao Yulan's tone again, and see how long the other party wanted people to stay before making a decision.
Xiao Yulan opened the golden mouth, and Luo Wenge and the three naturally agreed, so they said in unison: "I obey the order."
"This case is presided over by Luo Wenge, with Xie Wenxuan and Murong Yu as assistants. I want to hear the truth with solid evidence, not just rumors, understand?"
"Your minister has received the decree, and I will definitely live up to the holy will." Luo Wenge said with a serious expression.
Xie Wenxuan and Murong Yu also knew that Xiao Yulan attached great importance to this matter, and they did not dare to slack off, they were all ready to fight.
Cao Cheng, who originally wanted to make trouble and continue to investigate the murder case, suddenly realized that the whole matter had nothing to do with him. He changed from the person in charge to an irrelevant person, and he was a little dazed. He still wanted to take this matter to blame. Asking for credit from Shen Jue, if it really doesn't matter, what should he do?
After Luo Wenge and the three agreed, Cao Cheng timidly said: "Your Majesty, what should I do?"
Xiao Yulan looked like a fatuous mediocre gentleman at this time, and asked in a daze: "What are you going to do? This matter will be taken over by the Sanfa Division, so Cao Aiqing can rest easy. Oh, could it be that Cao Aiqing wants some rewards? I think about it, I will give Aiqing a reward." Wrap the tea, it is my private treasure."
Luo Wenge inexplicably remembered the identical drawer of good tea in the side hall, lowered his head and curled his lower lip.
"I don't mean that. This murder case was investigated by me. Your Majesty suddenly asked the Sanju to take over. It seems that I am very useless." Cao Cheng said embarrassingly, with a forced smile on his face.
Xiao Yulan raised her eyebrows lightly, pretending to suddenly realize: "It turns out that Cao Aiqing is worried about this, it doesn't matter, don't worry about that, you are doing things for me, and I just know what your ability is. By the way, listen to what you said, let me remind you of one thing, Later, send the relevant records of the posthouse homicide case you found to Dali Temple, and let Luo Wenge and the others take a good look."
"But..." Cao Cheng was not reconciled, and wanted to say something more, he raised his head to meet Xiao Yulan's gradually cooling expression, his eyes were cold and murderously tight, making Cao Cheng shut up instantly and dare not say more.
Seeing people was quite interesting, Xiao Yulan's expression softened a little, and he turned to the three of them and confessed: "I want to know the ins and outs as soon as possible, let's go down."
"Your Excellency, leave." The three of them were ordered to leave.
Seeing this, Cao Cheng felt that there was no need for him to stay any longer, so he drooped his ears and said, "I will also retire."
"Wait." Xiao Yulan raised her hand to stop it.
Cao Cheng's legs trembled, and he almost fell to his knees. He turned his head, not daring to look directly at Xiao Yulan, and said cautiously, "The minister is here."
Xiao Yulan smiled quite gently and said: "Cao Aiqing, don't worry, I said I would reward you for making a good tea, but I must do what I say. Don't make Cao Aiqing feel that I am going back on my word, Eunuch Li."
"The old slave is here." Eunuch Li replied.
"Go to the side hall to get my new good tea and present it to Mr. Cao." Xiao Yulan said lightly.
Eunuch Li immediately took the order and walked away with small steps, looking at his back, he didn't look like a man who was nearly fifty years old.
Cao Cheng's refusal was aborted, and he thought of Xiao Yulan's eyes killing just now, leaving only bitterness and grievance waiting for the reward.
My mind kept thinking about what to do.He is not in charge of this murder case, so he has no way of knowing who will bring down whom.
The current plan is to go to Shen Jue.
Although he couldn't take this opportunity to pull out Xu Dang's people, but after all, this matter was caused by him, and Shen Jue must know his great achievements.
After thinking about it in this way, Cao Cheng felt much better about being excluded from the case and getting the tea leaves bestowed by Bao Yu.
Eunuch Li left quickly and returned quickly, and immediately followed Xiao Yulan's instructions and handed the tea bag to Cao Cheng with both hands.
Cao Cheng took it and left the palace with a thousand thanks.
Seeing the last black border on Cao Cheng's black gauze hat disappear at the entrance of the hall, Xiao Yulan looked at the blue sky and pulled the corner of her lower lip.
On the way to Dali Temple, Luo Wenge started to check Taohuawan in Wenrou Lane.
It can be seen that this place is not simple just from the fact that its few words of information can be approved by the imperial court.
You must know that in the entire Changle City, only Wenrou Lane regards the curfew as nothing, can play silk and bamboo songs all night, and officials come and go without being impeached by the officials... Many special features can reveal the unusualness of this place.
Luo Wenge has read the documents and records that Ruanrou Lane was jointly built by two little-known people.
These two little people rarely show up in front of people, and most of the time they are represented by the accountant.
Leaving aside the mysterious origins of Ruanrou Lane, the Taohuawan, where the talk is arrogant, is not simple.
When Luo Wenge saw that the owner of Taohuawan was named Xu, his eyebrows twitched.
He remembered that Xu Yingping had a son and a daughter, daughter Xu Jinyuan was canonized as queen, and son Xu Shaoyan was trained in the army and is now guarding the border.
So is the owner of Taohuawan a coincidence?
He closed the document and took the teacup from Luo An: "Luo An, go and find out the rules of Taohuawan."
Luo An was shocked: "Young Master, what are you doing asking about those?"
Luo Wenge gently put down the lid of the cup, seeing Luo An's face being stepped on by the tail, he couldn't help asking: "Do you know where that is?"
"It's hard not to know, isn't it?" Luo An whispered, like a thief stealing chickens and dogs, "The most famous Goulan Courtyard in the city, my lord, I heard people say that the girls there are amazing, go there once and taste it. I want to spend a lot of money to bring people home."
Luo Wenge heard the words with a half-smile and said, "Is it really so charming?"
Luo An scratched his head and said embarrassedly: "I don't know if it's true or not. Why do you want to go there? If the officials see it, I'm afraid that you will impeach you for being extravagant and lustful, and you may lose your position."
Luo Wenge said calmly: "It's nothing, you can just ask, I have my uses."
Seeing this, Luo An had no choice but to act honestly.
On the same day, Xie Wenxuan and Murong Yu went to Dali Temple to handle the case with Luo Wenge.
The three of them didn't rush to send someone to investigate, but collected and sorted out the news sent by Cao Cheng, and after sorting out a general direction, the sun also set.
In the evening, Luo Wenge once again slipped away to Fengqi Palace avoiding many eyes and ears.
Seeing Xiao Yulan's appearance in dragon robes, Luo Wenge was stunned for a moment when he suddenly saw the handsome young man in white clothes, "This is your majesty?"
"I want to go to Peach Blossom Bay with Lord Luo to gain knowledge." Xiao Yulan said with a light smile.
"This is the last bowl you eat. If you want to eat it later, you and Zooey need to tell each other in person."
Luo Wenge's eyes lit up, and he tried to pretend to be calm and said, "Really?"
Seeing this, Xiao Yulan smiled lowly and said, "If you don't care, then I will let Zooey continue to prepare."
Luo Wenge couldn't pretend to be calm, and quickly said: "No, no, Aunt Zooey has so many things to do every day, and she has to find time to cook soup for me. It's too hard. As a man, I eat this food every day. People know how to joke."
"Luo Shaoqing still cares about other people's opinions?" Xiao Yulan teased.
Luo Wenge put down his spoon, and rarely said seriously: "Don't care, live with your heart."
Xiao Yulan admired his chicness, and pointed to the soup that he deliberately refused to eat: "If you don't want to eat it, let Zooey take it out."
"Don't waste it, I can finish it soon." Luo Wenge said.
He knew that Xiao Yulan wouldn't care about this, but because of his habit, he wouldn't waste it.
Xiao Yulan left it to him, he said he could finish the meal, so Xiao Yulan naturally wouldn't spoil people's appetite, seeing that he ate almost the same, she turned to talk about it before interrupting the topic: "How do you feel seeing Xu Jinyuan?"
"She is very similar to that mysterious pavilion master." Luo Wenge said in a pertinent tone.
"Like it doesn't necessarily mean it's not." Xiao Yulan said.
Luo Wenge also knew that there was not enough evidence to prove that Xu Jinyuan was the mysterious pavilion master, so he wanted Linjianglou to investigate the similarities or connections between Xu Jinyuan, the pavilion master of Tianming Pavilion, and Mr. Yuan.
If Xu Jinyuan really had nothing to do with these two people, he would send someone to Jiangnan according to the other party's wishes, provided that Xu Jinyuan was willing to go.
If it turns out that those two are Xu Jinyuan, then...it seems like he can't do anything.
Not to mention Xu Yingping standing behind Xu Jinyuan, her status as queen alone is enough for him to drink a pot.
What's more, there was also the matter of entering the palace under the guise of Xu Jinyuan's identity.
Immediately, there is a feeling that it is not true after checking, and it is not true if you do not check.
At this time, Xiao Yulan's attitude became very important. As long as Xiao Yulan nodded and let him investigate, no matter how absurd the matter was, he would not panic.
Therefore, Luo Wenge moved up a small stool and sat closer to Xiao Yulan: "Your Majesty, do you think I want to check Xu Jinyuan?"
Xiao Yulan stared at him: "If I say I won't investigate, you won't investigate?"
"That's the way it is. If you check her and find out something terrible, I can't get it to the end. Wouldn't it cause big trouble?"
"Is there anything in this world that you Luo Wenge can't accept?"
"Your Majesty, to be serious, I vaguely feel that the real investigation of Xu Jinyuan will lead to many unknown conspiracies."
Luo Wenge's intuition is quite accurate, at least after coming here, whenever there is intuition, it is basically verified.
Therefore, in the matter of investigating Xu Jinyuan, it was difficult for him to make a choice because of his intuition.
He had the so-called intuition that caused concerns, but Xiao Yulan did not.
Xiao Yulan's advantages brought about by her rebirth came into play at this time, but he would not tell Luo Wenge openly.
"Cha, it's best to follow her to find out the faction of the Xu Party. Don't worry about finding out the truth that you can't figure out. Don't forget, there is me behind you, and I will support you."
Perhaps it was because he had been strong for too long, Luo Wenge suddenly heard the word support, and was quite uncomfortable.
Luo Wenge didn't quite remember whether Xiao Yulan had said such words before, but this was the first time he heard it so clearly, and it was unforgettable.
It is said that people should know how to assess the situation. Luo Wenge saw Xiao Yulan speak so happily, and took advantage of the victory to ask: "If Xu Jinyuan is really the master of the Pavilion of Destiny, how does His Majesty plan to deal with her?"
"It depends on how Luo Shaoqing wants to deal with it." Xiao Yulan said with a smile. Although he can't be called Qiqiao Linglong, he is somewhat more transparent than ordinary people. Moreover, the person who is asking questions is something he gradually understands. People, the mind is easy to guess.
Luo Wenge didn't have the slightest sense of embarrassment in being guessed, and said generously: "The minister thanked His Majesty here first, and with His Majesty's words, the minister will have someone conduct a thorough investigation in a few days, and he will definitely be dug out. .”
"Xie Wenxuan has news about Mr. Yuan, if you want it, go and get it." Xiao Yulan provided convenience for him, depending on whether he needed it or not.
How could Luo Wenge let Xiao Yulan's good intentions go to waste, he said with a smile: "Thank you for your advice, I will go to the Metropolitan Procuratorate tomorrow to look for Mr. Xie."
Xiao Yulan couldn't help laughing, and found that he was more and more comfortable cooperating with her, and the relationship between the two of them was also getting better during this period.
This can be regarded as a rare good sign among many troubles, and it can also be called having fun while suffering.
Thinking like this, Xiao Yulan looked at Luo Wenge who had finished drinking the soup, and her heart warmed up. She only hoped that one day she would rule the country and look back at him still by her side, so that would be good.
Perhaps because of Xiao Yulan's will, Jing Zhaoyin's actions were faster than expected. The next day when the court was over, Jing Zhaoyin went into the Hall of Mental Cultivation with a memorandum to report the death of Prince Yun's male favorite.
The more Xiao Yulan read the memorial, his expression became more condensed. When he saw the end, he closed it suddenly: "Cao Cheng, do you know what your memorial is about?"
"I know." Cao Cheng bowed his head and replied in a deep voice.
"You said that the man was killed by King Yun, do you have evidence?" Xiao Yulan asked.
Cao Cheng put down his hands, looked at Xiao Yulan, and said neither humble nor overbearing: "I have not."
Xiao Yulan laughed when she heard that, and threw the memorabilia on Cao Cheng, angrily said: "You dare to say without evidence? Cao Cheng, I think you don't need to wear the black hat of Jing Zhaoyin!"
"Your Majesty calm down, the lack of evidence is not due to the ability of the subject, but the situation is compelling, please listen to the subject one by one." Cao Cheng knelt down and begged with speed that is not what an elderly person should have, he knelt down in the blink of an eye.
Xiao Yulan really wanted to kick the person away earlier, but this matter should not be overdone, it needs to be done step by step.
He also wanted to hear what kind of sophistry Cao Cheng could say, so he said angrily, "Say, I want to hear if you can name a flower."
Cao Cheng was sweating in his hands, he wrote the letter according to the facts, thinking that Xiao Yulan was anxious to know the result, so he didn't show it to Shen Jue.He knew in his heart that Shen Jue might not be able to pass it.
Having worked for Shen Jue for more than ten years, Cao Cheng knew very well what kind of person he was.Zoushu must not write the truth.
But to play fake in front of Xiao Yulan, it is very likely that he lost his head before he walked out of the Hall of Mental Cultivation.
Mr. Li, who was beheaded by the Ministry of Rites and ransacked his house, sounded a very loud alarm for them. Cao Cheng did not want to be the second Mr. Li.
Anticipating the consequences of handing over the memorial, and also anticipating Xiao Yulan's anger, Cao Cheng was only betting on the fact that he was not sure about his defense.
Fortunately, this blog is right.
Cao Cheng said softly: "I found out that King Yun took the deceased to Ruanrou Lane three days ago. He searched for flowers and asked willows for two nights and three days in a row. Until the night before last night, he couldn't take it anymore so he didn't go again. Before dawn yesterday morning, King Yun wanted to take the deceased again. The deceased went, and the deceased claimed that he was not feeling well and did not want to go, which made King Yun very unhappy, and he said a few more words about him, but the deceased retorted a few words in a low voice, which made him lose his temper."
Xiao Yulan's half-curved smile was too cold: "It would be too reluctant to say that King Yun killed someone because of this."
"The minister asked Yun Wang's servants, and said that the prince brought back an interesting object from Wenrou Lane, and he would lock it in the room with the deceased to enjoy it when he had nothing to do. Whenever he used it, the prince said that he seemed to be in the air, and he didn't worry about anything anymore. , but when the effects pass, they will become extremely irritable, and whoever refutes will be severely beaten or even seriously injured."
The sneer on Xiao Yulan's face disappeared. Hearing Cao Cheng's words reminded him of something extremely harmful to people in his previous life.
He rubbed his fingers back and forth several times, and asked coldly, "Did you find out where it came from?"
This is when we really got to the point, Cao Cheng's expression changed, and he said respectfully, "Taohuawan in Wenrou Lane."
"Have you investigated?" Xiao Yulan couldn't sit still, she got up and walked back and forth.
From this, Cao Cheng judged that Xiao Yulan was very concerned about this matter, and put his heart into his stomach, and said the excuse he had prepared a long time ago: "No, Taohuawan refused to be searched by the minister and others because of the fact that there was someone behind him, claiming that he wanted to find out three people. One of the justices will go there in person, otherwise even if the Heavenly King Lao Tzu comes, he will not recognize him."
These words accurately hit Xiao Yulan's back.
Xiao Yulan laughed back angrily: "Sanfa Division? Okay, I will grant his wish. Eunuch Li."
Eunuch Li, who had been listening quietly for a long time, stepped forward: "The old slave is here."
"Decree to Xie Wenxuan and Luo Wenge to see you." Xiao Yulan said coldly.
Eunuch Li got the order, turned around and ran out, and when he was about to reach Di'an Gate, Xiao Yulan's voice sounded again: "Let Murong Yu, the right servant of the Ministry of Punishment, come along with you."
Eunuch Li realized that this was really going to be a joint trial by the three divisions, so there was no delay, so he ran away in a hurry.
Cao Cheng was dumbfounded by Xiao Yulan's boldness in speaking one after another. A simple provocative sentence brought the three justices together?
Cao Cheng belatedly realized that this seemed to be a bit exaggerated.
Maybe Xiao Yulan didn't know who was the backer of Taohuawan, but he knew it all.
It was opened by Xu Yingping's adopted son.
If it is true that the three divisions will interrogate, let alone Xu Yingping's son, even Xu Yingping will have to be involved, then there will be more people involved, and there is no guarantee who will be burned when the fire is strong.
Cao Cheng thought about it for a second, Xu Yingping has always been at odds with Shen Jue, isn't his move the same as using Xiao Yulan's hand to help Shen Jue get rid of his thorn in his side?
Thinking of this, Cao Cheng felt that his provocative words were just right.
Cao Cheng thought he was using a knife to kill someone, but he didn't realize that he was being used by Xiao Yulan instead.
Xiao Yulan is still suffering from not having the opportunity to provoke Shen Jue and Xu Yingping to fight. She tried to use the harem to influence the former court before, but the effect was not satisfactory. She is still thinking about it. Cao Cheng came to give the opportunity, and the fool would not take advantage of it.
Wenrou Lane, Peach Blossom Bay.
A good name, but I don't know if it can survive after being visited by the Sanju Division.
"Your Majesty, I think it's a bit of a joke to propose a joint trial of the three divisions just because of a prostitute's nonsense?" Cao Chengyou felt that the force was not strong enough, and took advantage of Eunuch Li's spare time to give Xiao Yulan eye drops.
Xiao Yulan pretended not to notice, letting Cao Cheng take advantage of it and acting obediently: "I see that the place is going to be turned upside down by no one. Earlier I heard that Ruanrou Lane behaved very outrageously. I didn't expect to kill people this time. If you don't want to cooperate well, and if you don't want people to rectify well, I'm afraid you will really despise the king's law!"
"Your Majesty's words are very true. I was filled with righteous indignation and wanted to force people to break in. However, there are not enough manpower. I am really ashamed." Cao Cheng said with a face full of annoyance.
The implication of this is that Taohuawan not only did not cooperate, but also raised many guards with martial arts without authorization, so that they dared to compete with the officers and soldiers.
It has to be said that although Cao Cheng is passive and sabotages work, no one can match his careful planning and meticulous thinking.
Xiao Yulan sneered inwardly, if Shen Jue knew what Cao Cheng did in the Hall of Mental Cultivation today, he might have to vomit blood three times.
"I blamed you wrongly, and I am here to compensate you."
"Ai ai ai, Your Majesty, if you can't do it, it's a matter of your duty. I just hope that your Majesty will thoroughly investigate Taohuawan." Cao Cheng said righteously.
Xiao Yulan bent her lips and said in her heart: Even if you don't say it, I will do it.
It was rare for someone to pass the steps so well, Xiao Yulan happily accepted it with a smile, and followed Cao Cheng's voice: "Cao Aiqing, don't worry, I will let the three justices handle it strictly, and no one who is guilty will be spared."
"Your Majesty's sage is the blessing of all people." Cao Cheng knelt down and saluted, as if he was honored to have such a wise king as Xiao Yulan.
Xiao Yulan looked at Cao Cheng with pity, and sighed in a low voice: "Cao Aiqing, please, I just did what I should do."
It was indeed what he should do. Cao Cheng had made all the arrangements, and he was just cooperating.
Cao Cheng, who was really sold and counted the money for him, stood up obediently, still complacent about having accomplished such a great event, stepped aside and looked up at Xiao Yulan.
Received Xiao Yulan's gentle smile, Cao Cheng also followed suit.
The two laughed with their own deep meanings, but one was real, and the other was a fake who was foolishly paving the way for others and didn't know it.
For the time being, they are all happy.
With Eunuch Li handing down the imperial decree, Luo Wenge and others came very quickly.
Luo Wenge met Xie Wenxuan at the outer gate of the palace, and both of them nodded lightly as a greeting. When they saw Murong Yu, whom they were not too familiar with at ordinary times, Luo Wenge was much more restrained.
Murong Yu has an elegant demeanor, and when he smiles, it makes people feel like a spring flower. Although he works in the Ministry of Criminal Justice, he doesn't have the bloody smell that is unique to the Ministry of Criminal Justice.
That being said, no one dared not to take Murong Yu seriously, and heard that the officials of the Ministry of Punishment closed the door and jokingly called him a smiling tiger.Regardless of the pleasing smile, stabbing a knife is absolutely unimaginably ruthless.
This person has a clean family background, and in today's situation where there are factions all over the court, he resolutely insists on himself, and it is really rare for a person with a strong heart.
Now that Luo Wenge saw Murong Yu, he guessed that Xiao Yulan wanted to make a big move.
Could it be that Jingzhaoyin Zhayun Wang's male favorite was killed, and found some opportunities to take advantage of?
Otherwise, how could people from the Sanju Division be summoned to have an audience?
While thinking, the Hall of Mental Cultivation was close in front of him, Luo Wenge put away his thoughts, nodded and lowered his eyebrows, and entered.
In the hall, Luo Wenge caught a glimpse of Jing Zhaoyin standing at the side, and followed Xie Wenxuan and Murong Yu to salute Xiao Yulan: "I have seen Your Majesty, long live Your Majesty."
"Exemption." Xiao Yulan said.The attitude towards Luo Wenge should be treated equally in front of others, and no selfishness should be hidden.
Thinking this way in my heart, it was inevitable that my eyes would wander to Luo Wenge a few more times when I spoke: "This is a tricky case that needs to be investigated jointly by you."
Luo Wenge and the three looked at each other, and Luo Wenge, who had recently been rumored to be a celebrity before His Majesty, stepped forward and said softly, "Please give orders, Your Majesty."
"The posthouse murder case will be handed over to the three of you from now on. Be sure to investigate the matter clearly. I want to know the cause and effect of the whole incident. All those involved in the murder case will be arrested and brought to justice without any omissions."
When they heard that it was a homicide in a posthouse, let alone Luo Wenge's expression changed, even Xie Wenxuan's expression, which had always been stable, changed slightly. Among the three, only Murong Yu was the calmest.
"I heard from Cao Aiqing that there is a place called Taohuawan in Ruanrou Lane. The shopkeeper is very arrogant and said that if you want to investigate that place, you need one of the three judicial departments to go in person. I thought I only let the Metropolitan Procuratorate or the Ministry of Punishment go. He also said that the three Dharma divisions should arrive together, so I simply let you come together, so as not to have to go back a few more times."
The corners of Luo Wenge's lips twitched, and he cast a sympathetic look at Cao Cheng, who was still full of complacency when he was mentioned there.
If the posthouse homicide case really needs to be taken over by the San Judicial Division, then it is guaranteed that the matter will not be closed for a while.
If the murder case cannot be concluded, the persons involved will not be allowed to leave Beijing.
It seems that Xiao Yulan was not joking when she said that the Ministry of Rites should make preparations, she really planned to let the feudal lords spend the New Year in Beijing.
Later, he had to probe Xiao Yulan's tone again, and see how long the other party wanted people to stay before making a decision.
Xiao Yulan opened the golden mouth, and Luo Wenge and the three naturally agreed, so they said in unison: "I obey the order."
"This case is presided over by Luo Wenge, with Xie Wenxuan and Murong Yu as assistants. I want to hear the truth with solid evidence, not just rumors, understand?"
"Your minister has received the decree, and I will definitely live up to the holy will." Luo Wenge said with a serious expression.
Xie Wenxuan and Murong Yu also knew that Xiao Yulan attached great importance to this matter, and they did not dare to slack off, they were all ready to fight.
Cao Cheng, who originally wanted to make trouble and continue to investigate the murder case, suddenly realized that the whole matter had nothing to do with him. He changed from the person in charge to an irrelevant person, and he was a little dazed. He still wanted to take this matter to blame. Asking for credit from Shen Jue, if it really doesn't matter, what should he do?
After Luo Wenge and the three agreed, Cao Cheng timidly said: "Your Majesty, what should I do?"
Xiao Yulan looked like a fatuous mediocre gentleman at this time, and asked in a daze: "What are you going to do? This matter will be taken over by the Sanfa Division, so Cao Aiqing can rest easy. Oh, could it be that Cao Aiqing wants some rewards? I think about it, I will give Aiqing a reward." Wrap the tea, it is my private treasure."
Luo Wenge inexplicably remembered the identical drawer of good tea in the side hall, lowered his head and curled his lower lip.
"I don't mean that. This murder case was investigated by me. Your Majesty suddenly asked the Sanju to take over. It seems that I am very useless." Cao Cheng said embarrassingly, with a forced smile on his face.
Xiao Yulan raised her eyebrows lightly, pretending to suddenly realize: "It turns out that Cao Aiqing is worried about this, it doesn't matter, don't worry about that, you are doing things for me, and I just know what your ability is. By the way, listen to what you said, let me remind you of one thing, Later, send the relevant records of the posthouse homicide case you found to Dali Temple, and let Luo Wenge and the others take a good look."
"But..." Cao Cheng was not reconciled, and wanted to say something more, he raised his head to meet Xiao Yulan's gradually cooling expression, his eyes were cold and murderously tight, making Cao Cheng shut up instantly and dare not say more.
Seeing people was quite interesting, Xiao Yulan's expression softened a little, and he turned to the three of them and confessed: "I want to know the ins and outs as soon as possible, let's go down."
"Your Excellency, leave." The three of them were ordered to leave.
Seeing this, Cao Cheng felt that there was no need for him to stay any longer, so he drooped his ears and said, "I will also retire."
"Wait." Xiao Yulan raised her hand to stop it.
Cao Cheng's legs trembled, and he almost fell to his knees. He turned his head, not daring to look directly at Xiao Yulan, and said cautiously, "The minister is here."
Xiao Yulan smiled quite gently and said: "Cao Aiqing, don't worry, I said I would reward you for making a good tea, but I must do what I say. Don't make Cao Aiqing feel that I am going back on my word, Eunuch Li."
"The old slave is here." Eunuch Li replied.
"Go to the side hall to get my new good tea and present it to Mr. Cao." Xiao Yulan said lightly.
Eunuch Li immediately took the order and walked away with small steps, looking at his back, he didn't look like a man who was nearly fifty years old.
Cao Cheng's refusal was aborted, and he thought of Xiao Yulan's eyes killing just now, leaving only bitterness and grievance waiting for the reward.
My mind kept thinking about what to do.He is not in charge of this murder case, so he has no way of knowing who will bring down whom.
The current plan is to go to Shen Jue.
Although he couldn't take this opportunity to pull out Xu Dang's people, but after all, this matter was caused by him, and Shen Jue must know his great achievements.
After thinking about it in this way, Cao Cheng felt much better about being excluded from the case and getting the tea leaves bestowed by Bao Yu.
Eunuch Li left quickly and returned quickly, and immediately followed Xiao Yulan's instructions and handed the tea bag to Cao Cheng with both hands.
Cao Cheng took it and left the palace with a thousand thanks.
Seeing the last black border on Cao Cheng's black gauze hat disappear at the entrance of the hall, Xiao Yulan looked at the blue sky and pulled the corner of her lower lip.
On the way to Dali Temple, Luo Wenge started to check Taohuawan in Wenrou Lane.
It can be seen that this place is not simple just from the fact that its few words of information can be approved by the imperial court.
You must know that in the entire Changle City, only Wenrou Lane regards the curfew as nothing, can play silk and bamboo songs all night, and officials come and go without being impeached by the officials... Many special features can reveal the unusualness of this place.
Luo Wenge has read the documents and records that Ruanrou Lane was jointly built by two little-known people.
These two little people rarely show up in front of people, and most of the time they are represented by the accountant.
Leaving aside the mysterious origins of Ruanrou Lane, the Taohuawan, where the talk is arrogant, is not simple.
When Luo Wenge saw that the owner of Taohuawan was named Xu, his eyebrows twitched.
He remembered that Xu Yingping had a son and a daughter, daughter Xu Jinyuan was canonized as queen, and son Xu Shaoyan was trained in the army and is now guarding the border.
So is the owner of Taohuawan a coincidence?
He closed the document and took the teacup from Luo An: "Luo An, go and find out the rules of Taohuawan."
Luo An was shocked: "Young Master, what are you doing asking about those?"
Luo Wenge gently put down the lid of the cup, seeing Luo An's face being stepped on by the tail, he couldn't help asking: "Do you know where that is?"
"It's hard not to know, isn't it?" Luo An whispered, like a thief stealing chickens and dogs, "The most famous Goulan Courtyard in the city, my lord, I heard people say that the girls there are amazing, go there once and taste it. I want to spend a lot of money to bring people home."
Luo Wenge heard the words with a half-smile and said, "Is it really so charming?"
Luo An scratched his head and said embarrassedly: "I don't know if it's true or not. Why do you want to go there? If the officials see it, I'm afraid that you will impeach you for being extravagant and lustful, and you may lose your position."
Luo Wenge said calmly: "It's nothing, you can just ask, I have my uses."
Seeing this, Luo An had no choice but to act honestly.
On the same day, Xie Wenxuan and Murong Yu went to Dali Temple to handle the case with Luo Wenge.
The three of them didn't rush to send someone to investigate, but collected and sorted out the news sent by Cao Cheng, and after sorting out a general direction, the sun also set.
In the evening, Luo Wenge once again slipped away to Fengqi Palace avoiding many eyes and ears.
Seeing Xiao Yulan's appearance in dragon robes, Luo Wenge was stunned for a moment when he suddenly saw the handsome young man in white clothes, "This is your majesty?"
"I want to go to Peach Blossom Bay with Lord Luo to gain knowledge." Xiao Yulan said with a light smile.
