Dongdu Pavilion Case Record

Chapter 138 5.30 Puzzle 4

Li Shu was shocked and said: "Pu Qiming, why did he kill Jing Xiao?"

Tang Wuyi thought of Li Huan's last letter, and suddenly had a flash of inspiration: "When Your Majesty led the Vermilion Bird Army into the palace to quell the chaos, who killed the first prince?"

Li Shu suddenly realized: "It was Jing Xiao, Jing Xiao shot and killed my elder brother with an arrow."

"That's right." Tang Wuyi said, "Mr. Pu and the former prince have a strong relationship with teachers and students, and they are regarded as lifelong confidants. The former prince wrote a letter asking for help, and as the teacher of the Tang family, Mr. Pu must hand this letter to the minister's adoptive father. , but did not inform my elder brother. Therefore, my eldest brother did not know the real reason why my adoptive father led Tiance's army into the capital. Later, when His Majesty led the Suzaku army into Beijing, everyone in the world thought that the former crown prince had rebelled, so the elder brother followed His Majesty and naturally sent the first prince to the capital. The crown prince regarded him as a traitor, and shot him after entering the palace. But Mr. Pu had no official position and was not allowed to enter the palace. What he saw later was that His Majesty and his eldest brother jointly wiped out the Tiance Army, and killed the minister's adoptive father and the former prince. In Mr. Pu's eyes, the minister's eldest brother probably followed His Majesty secretly, betrayed the Tang family, and killed the former prince with his own hands!"

"Jing Xiao, he..." Li Shu was furious, "Jing Xiao, he has never followed me secretly, we only listened to the words of the third brother... hey..." Li Shu shook his sleeves fiercely , "Jing Xiao actually lost his life because of this, I can't help him!"

Li Shu supported his forehead, thought about the matter again, and suddenly said: "In this way, Jing Xiao is not the third brother's fault, that class leader... ah!" Li Shu suddenly felt dizzy, and supported the table with his hands At first, he just thought that he was a little exhausted, but soon realized that something was wrong, why his limbs were weak, he was poisoned!

He sat down calmly, looked carefully at the people in the hall, and suddenly set his eyes on one person, terrified, and shouted at him: "Yang Ji!"

Yang Ji seemed to have expected it a long time ago, knelt down and said: "You slave will die."

Tang Wuyi and Wen Tao were both confused, looking at them.Li Shu said to Tang Wuyi: "Hurry up, pass it on!"

"No need to pass it on." Yang Ji said, "There is no one outside, they were all taken away by the slaves. Don't worry, Your Majesty, the poisoned slaves that His Majesty has fallen for have an antidote."

Li Shu's face was ashen, and he shouted at Yang Ji: "You are so brave! You actually poisoned me in the eight-treasure tea just now!"

Yang Jiduan kowtowed his head and said: "Your servant will die. When I went to the hall just now, my servant has already served the red crest. I will die within half an hour."

Li Shu was surprised and said, "Why are you like this?"

Yang Jidao: "Your Majesty just asked Banzhu about Zhao, and the servant came to answer. Banzhu Zhao was not killed by King Yan, but was killed by the slave." He was as calm as water, "Actually, at the beginning, the Chunxi Banquet was recommended by the slave to King Qi, and it was the slave. The Chunxi Troupe was designed to perform the "Double Dragon Seizing the Pearl" in front of His Majesty and all the officials, in order to lure the King of Yan into the game, and then use the Dongdu Pavilion to uncover the past."

Tang Wuyi suddenly remembered something, and blurted out: "Did the script of "Double Dragon Capture the Pearl" come from you? And you also killed the boss of Baicao Pavilion?"

Yang Ji smiled and said: "This slave is not capable of writing such a good play. But the boss of Baicao Pavilion is indeed the one who killed the slave. After all, he has seen the slave, and the slave instructed him to sell it to the Chunxi class."

"Could it be Mr. Pu?" Tang Wuyi said in shock, "Are you and Mr. Pu a conspiracy?"

Yang Ji smiled and said, "Pavilion Master Tang is really smart." He said calmly, "Mr. Pu is the person I respect the most in this life, and Your Majesty is the person I respect the second."

Li Shu snorted coldly.

Yang Ji continued: "The slave was unknown in the palace and was bullied by others. Once when he was punished to kneel in the corridor outside the East Palace, he ran into Mr. Pu. He did not regard the slave as despicable, but spoke out for the slave. Take good care of her, and even teach the slave to read and write. If there is no Mr. Pu, the slave will be buried in the deep palace."

Li Shu didn't say anything at the moment, he remembered the first time he saw Yang Ji.At that time, he had just ascended the throne, and all the servants in the palace were the late emperor's confidant Mr. Li. Mr. Li had always favored Li Huan. confidant.It was at that time that he met Yang Ji for the first time. Although he was humble, he did not fight or grab, and handled affairs properly. What is even more rare is that Yang Ji was proficient in writing and ink.Li Shu was overjoyed, and single-handedly promoted Yang Ji until he finally sat on the position of chief executive.

Yang Ji went on to say: "The last letter from the former prince was actually brought out of the palace by the slaves. At that time, King Yan put a lot of eyeliner in the palace to stare at the former prince, but he didn't expect that I would take advantage of the loophole and write The letter and Tiance Token were sent out and handed over to Mr. Pu."

"Later, the crown prince died. The slave didn't know the details, but I heard that Mr. Pu was seriously ill and almost died. Later, the slave was promoted by His Majesty, and his respect for His Majesty is definitely not a disguise." Yang Ji looked at Li Shu, his eyes were full of sincerity, "Slave After visiting Mr. Pu a few times, he seems to have come out of the past and never mentioned it again. Until the beginning of this year."

Li Shu listened carefully, and Yang Ji continued, "During the new year this year, my slave got a few days off, so I went to Dongdu to visit Mr. Pu. Mr. Pu, uncharacteristically, saluted this slave and asked him to help him. Mr. Pu Just like a slave who regenerates his parents, a slave will never hesitate to die."

"What does he want you to do?" Li Shu asked.

"He gave a playbook to the servant, and asked the servant to give it to a troupe to perform the play, and then invite the troupe to the palace to perform in front of His Majesty and officials during the Dragon Boat Festival." Yang Ji paused. After a pause, he continued, "He also told the servants that if General Tang needs to drink realgar wine during the Dragon Boat Festival, it is best to heat it up."

"Why is this?" Li Shu was puzzled.

"My slave doesn't know. Mr. Pu said that General Tang will die after drinking realgar wine." Yang Ji said.

"The grass people know!" Wen Tao said suddenly, "The grass people know the cause of General Tang's death."

Li Shu, Yang Ji, and Tang Wuyi all looked at him, and Wen Tao said: "Caomin heard people say that cinnabar is afraid of arsenic, realgar wine itself is slightly poisonous, and it is like arsenic when heated, but the dose is very small. Drinking it will not kill you, but if you encounter cinnabar, it will become highly poisonous. General Tang was poisoned by cinnabar when he was guarding the spirit, and he drank heated realgar wine at the Dragon Boat Festival a few days later. The two poisons interacted with each other. The reaction became highly toxic. Therefore, General Tang’s mouth and throat showed no signs of poisoning during the autopsy, but the internal organs showed poisoning!”

"That's why!" Li Shu sighed, "Pu Qiming's thoughts are so deep!"

Tang Wuyi said at this time: "Boss Yang, if Mr. Pu has long wanted to kill Big Brother, why didn't he do it until this year's Dragon Boat Festival? In the past few years, Mr. Pu had a lot of opportunities to do it."

Yang Ji turned his gaze to Wen Tao and said, "Because of him."
