The emperor sat down in the attic, Situ Ang dragged Zhu Jun up to the attic, and found Jin lying on the floor.

Zhu Jun immediately struggled to climb to Jinshang, and Situ Ang also walked over quickly, put his fingers on Jinshang's neck, and felt his pulse. Fortunately, he was still alive.

"What's wrong, brother?"

"Confused, you carry your brother downstairs. Let's go to Chongzheng Hall."

Situ Ang had great strength, and he easily carried Jin up and down the stairs. The guards outside watched him, but he didn't dare to step forward to stop him, so he followed him to the Chongzheng Hall.

"The prince please come."

A guard went to the East Palace to ask Cheng Yue to come over.At this stall, the emperor dictated, and the bachelors on duty in the Chongzheng Hall wrote and drafted an imperial edict.Make Qin Keqing a princess, and the treatment should be given out.

When the university student on duty left the Chongzheng Hall holding the imperial decree, the Chengyue people arrived.

The emperor waved the people back, and said to him on the dragon chair, "Clean up and set off for Songshan Mountain immediately. Mixing found a female corpse, wearing your elder brother's clothes. Go and confirm whether it is the person we are looking for .”

Cheng Yue was somewhat prepared in his heart, even though it was uncomfortable to hear it, he held back his tears and kowtowed, and was about to back down.

"Wait, don't miss any traces. If your elder brother is really in trouble, don't let her be humiliated behind her back. Bring her body back and bury it in her tomb. If the world knows that she is a daughter, there will be another disturbance , let the history books write her as a man."

Cheng Yue nodded, crawled to the emperor's feet, put his head on the emperor's knee, "Grandfather, grandson has gone, take care."

"Don't worry, I can bear it," the emperor stroked Chengyue's hair crown, "I have experienced this since I was a child, first my brothers fought so hard at that time, and Taizong was exhausted because of it. I was just thinking, what will happen to me in the future?" A child must not die at the hands of a palace woman. Who knew that it would become like this later, the most terrifying thing for a woman to fight is poisoning, and the most terrifying thing for a man to fight is conspiracy. When I was young, I was just like you at this moment. I am afraid that I will not survive tomorrow, and I am terrified every day. Since I became the throne, I have dared to let my concubine have a child. I am afraid that I am not capable enough to protect the child. Go, go, even if there is a big thing, the dead should rest in peace. I am still not confused now, and I can still control the situation, so go early and return early."

Cheng Yue got up, wiped away his tears, silently saluted and left.

The emperor was already old, and the hair on his head was all white. He asked the palace servants to bring a stack of history books and read them in the hall. Many officials were waiting outside the door to ask to see the emperor. Xie, woke up today.

Situ Ang helped him to see the emperor.

Only father and son were left in the hall.

"I once promised Junming, if Junming is gone, I will be buried with the emperor's ceremony in the future."

Today I listened with my head down. I heard that I was a bit reluctant to use the gift of the emperor, but I gave up because I was dead.

The emperor knew that Jinshang attached great importance to these vain things, so he deliberately mentioned it in front of Jinshang.Seeing that he is in a stable mood now, he is talking to Imaka slowly. "In this great hall, Tai-zu's coffin is suspended here, and Taizong's coffin is suspended here. I don't want this, and I don't want my descendants to do the same. In my opinion, it is not good for a king to occupy the position of the emperor after he is old. After all, When I lose energy, I will inevitably start to suspect my son. Therefore, I gave you my position early, I would rather grow old slowly in Xiyuan, and finally stop in Xiyuan. When Cheng Yue returns with Jun Ming's bones, You should also step aside, we father and son, I raise flowers and you listen to the opera, and amuse your grandson in your free time, it is a pleasure in the world."

"I don't want to." Standing up today, with a grim expression on his face, "Father is willing to do this, but my son is not. Throughout the ages, the co-lord of the world was not the moment when the mountain collapsed. Not only that, we are also emperors when we go to the underworld, Father, forgive me for not being able to do it."

"Son, you should think about the country, the country, and our Situ family. After hundreds of years, I don't want my descendants to be kings of subjugation."

"Those are your descendants, not mine." Jinshang roared out.

"So you thought so, isn't your elder brother's bloodline yours? How did you tell me when you held Chengyue in your arms?"

Imam didn't speak, just stood there looking down at the emperor.

"At this time, at another time, right? I know, now that I am old, and after handing over my power, I am also a toothless tiger. I have to act according to my son's face. Old age is nothing but sorrowful."

The emperor stood up, walked to the door, and told the guards at the door of the main hall, "Send me to Xiyuan."

The eunuch outside shouted loudly, "Let's drive to Xiyuan~"

Sitting back on the dragon chair today, he calmed down a bit, and Dai Quan walked over cautiously, "Your Majesty, the adults from various ministries outside are waiting. Do you want them to come in?"

"Let them go back and let Mi Tong come to see me."

When Mi Tong came, it was already dark.

"Grandfather." Mi Tong greeted Ann with uncontrollable joy on his face.

"Good boy," Imakami said with a smile, "I'm sorry for your mother. I let her suffer for so long. It's okay now, let me make up for her, and it also makes me feel more at ease. Speaking of peace of mind , your eldest uncle's whereabouts are unknown, which makes me feel uneasy, and I want to ask you, are you sure that the corpse you found is your eldest uncle?"

Mi Tong was still young, and the question on his face was clear, "Grandfather, that's a female corpse, uncle is a man."

"Yes, yes, yes, I am confused. Don't tell your mother about this when you go back. Don't make your mother feel uncomfortable on this great day. Wait a few days, and then find a time to talk slowly. "

Mi Tong nodded obediently.

"Your uncle has gone to Songshan, and there is no one to discipline your cousins. How about this, you go back to the East Palace, watch over your cousins, and restrain them from running around. They are all grown up. You should be quiet." Get down to reading."

"Yes"

Cheng Yue quickly arrived at Mount Song, and saw the corpse wrapped in ice. There were many rotten places. Situ Yue could only compare based on his body shape. It seemed that Situ Yue was very similar in height, short, fat and thin.

"Where's Cheng Ju? Who was the eldest brother following?"

Shang Ming of Tengxiangwei took a step forward and replied, "At that time, there was no one with King Rong, and the family returned north, and the servant..." glanced at Niu Da and Li Er, "The servant was taken away."

Cheng Yue held back his anger, "Oh, you took him away. As for the person, as long as he is not dead and invites him to Gu, Gu will ask him in person."

He told the person who brought it, "Use more ice and bring it back to the capital."

Several officials from the Ministry of Punishment came forward with Wu Zuo, "Your Highness, since there is a dead body here, there must be a murder case, and this corpse was involved in the disappearance of King Rong. According to the past practice, an autopsy is required. of."

"Everyone is dead, give the deceased some face and let her go on like this." Cheng Yue couldn't bear to turn his head away, but the smell in the room was unpleasant, Cheng Yue felt sad from it, his tears couldn't be controlled, and his eyes blurred .

The officials of the Ministry of Punishment looked at each other a few times, feeling that there were many doubts, and wanted to ask Cheng Yue to allow the autopsy, "Your Highness, is this a family member of King Rong?"

Shang Ming replied, "No, only King Rong went on the road alone, and there was no one around him to serve him."

"Your Highness, please wait for the autopsy."

Cheng Yue would never tell the truth, "No, let her go in a decent way. A daughter's family has met several men from birth to death. Now... an autopsy is like torture. She And the victim..."

"Your Highness, it is because she was killed that we need to find out the real culprit."

The real culprit, the real culprit is right in front of your eyes, and the mastermind behind the scenes is in the palace, Cheng Yue is more sure of this than anyone else.Glancing at Li Er and Niu Da, "No need, don't stand still, use ice, let's take her back to the capital."

The guards of the Eastern Palace carried a piece of ice and put it in the carriage. Several famous arresters from the Ministry of Criminal Justice watched the corpse being carried away. One of them stepped forward and said, "Your Highness is here to find the whereabouts of King Rong. Doubtful." Cheng Yue looked at him and waited for him to continue. "First of all, the clothes belong to King Rong. This is a great dress for sacrifices. It has a crown, a jade belt, what should be worn on the inner clothes and the outer clothes, and there is a fixed number of accessories, which cannot be overwhelmed. Listen to the guards who escorted you. At that time, King Rong had a lot of ornaments on his body, but at the boundary of Songshan Mountain, only the crown and jade belt remained. Now, where are the crown and jade belt?"

"I'm afraid it was hanging somewhere in the process of falling."

"That's right. Your Highness, I suspect that someone replaced King Rong with a female corpse. I just went to the plank road on the mountainside, where someone wiped off the blood on purpose. Moreover, there was a lot of blood in one place, and no one noticed it." I realized that no one was going to erase it. I suspect that King Rong... if he is gone in all likelihood, but someone took away his body and hastily replaced it with this female corpse. There is a huge Maybe the person who took away King Rong didn't know that this was a female corpse."

"What do you mean? What do you mean?" Cheng Yue looked up at the top of Songshan Mountain.

"There are too many flaws, Your Highness. The biggest flaw is that King Rong cannot be a woman."

"I order you to investigate the case. Except for the autopsy, what do you want to investigate, go ahead and investigate. You must find King Rong, whether it is a person or... a corpse."

"Yes, Your Highness." The criminal police immediately separated Niu Da and Li Er, and the escorted guards also interrogated each of them.The people from the Ministry of Punishment tried the case separately, and there was no lack of intimidation and inducement. They were repeatedly asked to recall the link of King Rong's fall. Each person asked them ten times.

On the road at night, because he was dragging a dead body, he felt panicked along the way, but the people from the Ministry of Criminal Justice didn't think so, and hurriedly found Cheng Yue.

"Your Highness, the ministers have summarized the following points and presented them to Your Highness. First, why did King Rong let them divert to Songshan and lie to them that the money is in Songshan? Moreover, King Rong said that there is a temple on the top of the mountain, but in fact, there is nothing there. Second, the guards said that King Rong was sitting on the side of the plank road. Everyone was very tired, but everyone was resting on the mountain wall. Only King Rong was sitting on the edge to rest. Aristocratic families have always paid attention to the sons of daughters not sitting on the sidewalk. The prince is the eldest son of Prince Xianmin. He listened to the emperor's lessons day and night. How could he not know this. Third, King Rong is very calm. Losing power often means crying bitterly and worrying all day long, but King Rong is not like this. Fourth, why does King Rong wear Dagon clothes when the year is not festival? Dagon clothes are formal dresses. But I only love the gorgeous clothes that are decorated. I heard that King Rong’s clothes need to be nailed with 48 rows of copper nails. Even the regular clothes are also woven with gold and silver threads. The clothes are solemn. through..."

"What do you want to say?"

The catcher swallowed quickly, "I feel that King Rong is still alive, and the female corpse should have been thrown down by King Rong's people. I asked someone to check it in the afternoon, and I didn't want a place away from the local area, so I lost it for a long time." A female corpse."

"Really?" Cheng Yue's eyes were very bright.

"Yes, but Lord Rong must be having a hard time. Today, during the day, my colleagues took advantage of our conversation to look at it. There was blood on Dagon's clothes, and there was also blood on the plank road on the mountainside. On the cliff, There was a lot of blood. King Rong must have been seriously injured, and King Rong's men were ambushing on Mount Song at that time."

"Okay, okay," Cheng Yue walked around the room a few times, "I'm going to send someone to check the medical center in Songgao County."

"Your Highness, I don't think we'll gain anything by doing this. King Rong must be accompanied by a doctor. Songgao County is full of turmoil at the moment. If it were a medical center, it would have been exposed long ago. We should check the temples. I heard that there are many temples around. There are some well-known doctors with word of mouth.”

"No," Cheng Yue sat down, "No, big brother doesn't like monks and Taoist priests, and won't step into temples and Taoist temples, check caravans, check all caravans these days, the more seamless, the more you will There is a problem. What is your name? Seeing that you have a clear mind, after this matter is over, come to the East Palace, Gu will definitely use you."

"Thank you, Your Highness, Zhao Shanlan, the minister of Lu, I pay my respects to Your Highness, and I am willing to serve His Highness."
