Xiang Gong Zuo lowered his body slightly and looked at the handsome young man in front of him.
He is clearly dressed in men's clothes, but reveals a bit of feminine delicacy.
More scholar than scholar.
Gong Zuoxiang took a deep breath: "You know Mr. Ji who handled the case for Li Cheng?"
The tone is very light.
No complaints meant.
Ji Yunshu immediately bowed his hand to him: "It's right here."
"I've heard about you a long time ago, it's better to be famous than to see you!"
"Master Xiang has won the prize." "Haha." Gong Zuo smiled and walked to his son's spiritual seat. He couldn't help it for a while, his eyes were wet again, he sighed and said, "In my life, I have I did something wrong! I didn't expect that because of this, I lost my only son.
Yes, but why... not on me, but on Shilin? "
Ji Yunshu looked at his back.
Silent.
I saw Gong Zuoxiang suddenly took down the spiritual seat, held it in his hand, and touched the words engraved on it with trembling fingers.
His body was shaking violently.
Tears blurred!
Ji Yunshu: "Please also pass by."
Gong Zuo Xiang was deeply saddened and said in a long voice, "Who would have thought that the person I was desperately trying to give my life back then would personally order to kill my son."
The person he spoke of was King Huyi.
Ji Yunshu was about to speak... But Minister Gong Zuo continued: "In the civil strife in Huyi, I should have taken my soldiers and horses to defend the imperial city and fought for the last king! But for the sake of power and status! He actually took refuge in this great king who ordered my son to be killed, helped him enter the palace, and opened the last door to the palace. Even now, I will never forget the scene when the previous king was forced to give up the throne more than 20 years ago. I will not forget the picture of the king beheading his own siblings, and finally caused the first queen to escape from the palace with the young prince, and now he is nowhere to be found! At that time... I should have thought at that time.
So, how can such a ruthless person delusionally think that he will be kind to you? But when he realized it, it was too late, and instead he sacrificed Shilin's life! If it wasn't for my selfish interests back then, I wouldn't have done this now, and Shilin wouldn't have died. "
Weeping!
Ji Yunshu couldn't help but knit his brows after hearing his words.
The civil war in Huyi more than 20 years ago was also the key to her and Bai Yin's life experiences.
Now that she heard the former queen and the young prince mentioned by Prime Minister Gong Zuo again, her sensitive nerves twitched slightly.
The palms are so tight.
"Master Xiang, are you saying that in the civil war that year, the first queen and the prince escaped from the palace?" Gong Zuo Xiang looked at her with the spiritual seat in his hand, and said, "Everyone said that they did not escape at all, and They were buried in that sea of fire, but I knew that they did escape, because I watched them get into the carriage and leave, but it didn't take long for the Praetorian Guards to flee.
I have already chased it, and as for whether it is alive or dead, I don't know. "
"..." Ji Yunshu was startled and continued to ask, "Then do you know where the Guards chased all the way? And the young prince, how old were they at the time? Who was the one who took them away?"
"Ha ha… "
"Master, please let me know."
She wants to know the answer.
Maybe it is really related.
But Xiang Gong Zuo swayed lightly, walked to the coffin, touched the cold coffin with his hand, and said, "You have finished serving the incense, and you have listened to my story, so let's go."
An expulsion order was issued.
However, at this time, Ji Yunshu is really not good at continuing to ask questions.
She had to bow again.
Said, "Farewell."
He turned and left.
Not long after she walked, she heard the voices of the maid and the servant from behind her.
"My lord, my lord..."
"Quick, go and call the doctor."
"Master, wake up! Young master's bones are not cold, you must not have an accident."
…
Awful.
Ji Yunshu was also very sad.
She left Gong's Mansion and got into the carriage that was parked in the distance.
As soon as she entered, Li Chengcheng quickly asked, "How?"
Ji Yunshu said, "The incense has already served you."
"Hey!" Li Cheng asked again with a sad face, "How about Master Xiang?"
"If you lose your only son, how can the white-haired person give away the black-haired person?"
"Hey!" Another sigh.
There was silence in the car.
Ji Yunshu suddenly asked: "Senior Cheng, do you know about the civil war in Huyi?"
Li Cheng shook his head: "I was only a few years old at the time. I don't know very well. You also know that I never cared about the affairs of the DPRK. What are you asking about this?"
"fine!"
Jing Rong gave her a meaningful look.
At this time-
The groom outside asked, "Sir, where are you going now?"
Li Cheng returned to his senses and instructed, "Go to the Ministry of Housing."
Ministry of Accounts
Ji Yunshu and Jing Rong looked at each other.
Li Cheng took out the hand letter and explained: "We agreed that as long as you help me solve the case, I will take you to the Ministry of Housing."
Then open the oracle.
Jing Rong took it over and took a look.
"Is this an edict from the Hanlin Academy?"
"That's right, only the hand decree of the Hanlin Academy can directly enter the household without disturbing the king's side."
Jing Rong understood everything in an instant: "It seems that this is Gong Shilin's help."
Li Cheng nodded: "It's something I asked him to do before. I thought he had forgotten it. I didn't expect that when I went to see him in the prison of the Ministry of Punishment that night, he gave it to me."
I have to say, Gong Shilin is indeed a good person.
As for the reason for his murder, Li Cheng knew, Ji Yunshu also knew, and Jing Rong could see through everything, but the three were tacit.
When the carriage arrived at the household department, Li Cheng took out two pieces of the city's guard uniforms from under the seat of the carriage.
to the two.
Said: "You put on your clothes, and it is convenient for me to bring you in."
Jing Rong and Ji Yunshu put their clothes on and got off the carriage.
When the junior officer outside the outdoor department saw Li Cheng, he hurried up to meet him: "Isn't this Mr. Li from the city department? Why did you come here all of a sudden?"
Li Cheng solved the big case of Du Mubai and the stone at the gate of the city. The king also rewarded him, and he could also enter the court. This great honor is not shared by everyone.
The people in the household were naturally good-natured when they saw him.
Li Cheng also said directly: "The department has something to check, so I have to go to the archives."
"Is there any paperwork?"
He took out the imperial edict from the Hanlin Academy and said, "Originally, I wanted to trouble the Hanlin Academy to check it out, but it's better to come here by myself."
The little official took the decree.
Take a closer look.
You can't go wrong with the stamp above.
it is true! "Since that's the case, then please, Mr. Li, I will show this manual to Lord Shang Shu, wait a moment..."
