The woman who hit the pillar was sent to the doctor, and the people of Dali Temple tremblingly invited the prince to go. They looked at each other in dismay, and they all had a vague premonition that the sky was going to change.
For the first time, Ji Anmin, a censor doctor who usually stands in the queue, made a passionate speech in the courtroom, denouncing the crime of the Crown Prince.
The sister who complained to the imperial court was called Shen Ruxin, who was from Suyuan County, Suzhou. The two sisters went to Yejing to find their relatives because of the death of their parents, but they didn't want to be abducted by Renya before they could find their relatives. Ren Yazi gave them medicine, and after tossing and turning, they were sent to a large mansion by a white-faced and beardless old man without any resistance.
Later, they tried to escape and angered the master's house, and two old mamas who were well behaved came, and they just realized that the mansion that was imprisoning them was actually the East Palace. And the master family they want to serve turned out to be the prince of the dynasty.
The two sisters were so frightened that they lost their minds, but when they pretended to be obedient, they overheard the two maids in the yard saying, "I don't know how long the sisters will live this time." The two sisters are also literate and understandable. After overhearing these words, they also thought about what kind of woman the prince of the dynasty wanted, but secretly shut up the daughter of a good family in their own mansion. There is obviously something wrong. It was about their lives, so they had their minds again and wanted to escape.
My sister remembered the words of the person who let them leave, and kowtowed outside the hall and cried: "The man who arrested us is called Sun Xinmin, and he has a brother in Yizhuang, the East Palace where they sold us together. There is an old man. The eunuch also gave them a lot of money! If your majesty and the officials and lords don't believe it, you can ask them to confront the girl on the spot! If the girl tells a lie, tell me to strike five thunders!"
No official, no position, not allowed to enter the Chongzheng Hall. Ji Anmin only sent people to the Dengwen Drum outside the hall. Tell her to beat the drums and complain about her grievances, and tell her grievances.
When Emperor Anqing and a group of officials were in the hall, they heard the sound of weeping blood coming in, and the sound was touching.
Ji Anmin knelt down and said solemnly, "Your Majesty please investigate thoroughly! If this matter really has nothing to do with the prince, it's better that the prince is innocent."
Except for the prince and the henchmen, the rest of the people all knelt and seconded, requesting a thorough investigation of the matter.
Not long after, the prince also arrived.
When he passed by Deng Wen Drum, he saw Shen Ru Xin who was complaining about his grievance.
The officials of the Dali Temple who invited the people truthfully reported everything that happened in the East Palace.
Emperor Anqing also listened to the eunuch's reply, and knocked on the armrest impatiently: "Prince, do you have something to say?"
The crown prince calmly knelt down, cupped his hands and said, "Father Huang Mingjian, what kind of woman does my son want to get? Why should I go to find the girl from a good family who was abducted and sold? As we all know, there are many strange things about this matter, if my minister first asked the director of the East Palace to conduct a thorough investigation, it is impossible to say that there is an inner ghost in the East Palace, colluding with outsiders, and intending to frame it."
His refutation was also reasonable, and many people suddenly became hesitant. I'm worried that someone is really going to frame it. If it has nothing to do with the prince at that time, those of them who are eager to step on the prince's foot are afraid that they will cause a fishy mess.
"Prince Prince is right." Emperor Anqing agreed. Even if he is afraid of this son, he still does not want the royal family to have a scandal.
"Whether it was framed or not, first arrest the abductor and bring him to justice, and then interrogate them one by one." Ji Anmin said bluntly.
When the prince came, he had a plan on the way. This matter is difficult to say, but it is simple but simple. Even if it is found out that this matter is really related to the East Palace, it is enough to introduce a dead ghost. Who would dare to investigate him? As for the Sun brothers... the tails that should be dealt with have already been dealt with, and it is normal for the two of them to be tortured to death in the prison by then.
He glanced at Ji Anmin and said indifferently: "Master Ji can't trust Gu, so if you want to check it out. Gu will definitely cooperate."
However, it was useless how happy he promised at this time, and later, how much he regretted it.
At this time, since it was Ji Anmin who bumped into it, and he was the one who demanded a thorough investigation, Emperor Anqing asked him to preside over the case, and Dali Temple cooperated.
Ji Anmin acted very quickly. He dispatched people from Dali Temple to Yizhuang and Yaxing to get people. This is what An Changqing had already discussed with him. Qing sent someone to control the two brothers last night.
In addition, there is also a roster kept privately by Sun Xinshi, the steward of Yizhuang. This is one of the evidences that the disguised spies have found in the remaining days. It is also an evidence that An Changqing came to the door and asked Ji Anmin to help him, and he was confident that he could pull the trigger. One of the evidences of the downfall of the prince.
The Sun brothers were already frightened. They only knew after last night that the master they were doing was actually the prince of the dynasty. These two brothers were looking for money, always thinking that they were the nobles behind them, but they never imagined that they were doing things for the prince and were involved in this court battle.
Ji Anmin took over the prisoners and evidence, and went to Dali Temple for trial in person.

When Xiao Zhige woke up, it was already dusk. He inhaled the drug and fell asleep for so long. When I woke up I just felt a little headache.
Sitting up with his arms supported, he rubbed his temples, and when the dizziness subsided, he remembered what happened last night.
His face changed slightly, and he was about to get up to look for someone when he saw An Changqing came in with a bowl of sugar water. When he saw that he was awake, he glared at him and said angrily, "Drink this, Yu Xiao said just now. Waking up a little dizzy."
Xiao Zhige hesitated, not knowing what expression to face him.
He never thought that the first time he fell, it would be in An Changqing's hands. But when you think about it, it's not surprising. Except for An Changqing, no one could make him defenseless.
After drinking the sugar water on the table, Xiao Zhige licked his lips and said dumbly, looking at An Changqing who was obviously still angry, "You can't stop me for a while, but you can't stop me forever."
He would have to kill the prince with his own hands in order to dispel the hatred in his heart.
"When did I say you were not allowed to kill the prince?"
An Changqing was furious and sneered: "The King of the Northern War is like a god with his troops, is there only one way to kill the prince with his troops in the East Palace? The prince is happy when he is dead, but you have to bear the infamy of murdering your brother and treason! You can't say in the future It's not worth it to sigh on behalf of the prince! It's not worth it to scold you for destroying humanity!"
He remembered the situation in the previous life, wasn't that the case
The bad things are done by others, but Xiao Zhige is responsible for the infamy. An Changqing hated the iron and said: "The prince should tell the world about his crimes, make him famous, famous by the royal family, and he will not rest in peace after death! Even if you kill him, it is not your brother. But do it for the sky!"
"Such a simple truth, do you still use me to teach the Northern War King?"
He took a bite of the Northern War King, obviously annoyed. The tails of his eyes were raised high, and his pupils were bright with anger.
The fire that was lingering in Xiao Zhige's heart was extinguished just like that.
Ever since he heard the eldest princess tell about the cause of his mother's death, a fire burned in his chest, burning his internal organs, so that he could only wish to die with the prince, with the Anqing emperor, and even with the entire Daye royal family.
He had long known that the palace was full of filth and filth, but he didn't know that the pickled pork was a thousand times more filthy than he could imagine. Such a dirty bloodline, it is better to burn it clean with a fire.
However, An Changqing abruptly pulled him back from the edge of the cliff.
Xiao Zhige closed his eyes, leaned over and hugged him, lowly admitting his mistake: "I'm sorry, I was wrong."
"You just want to understand." An Changqing let out a sigh of relief, rubbed tiredly against his neck, and grumbled, "Otherwise I'll have to ask Yu Xiao to tie you up and lock you up. , so as not to do something stupid and annoy me."
The corner of his lips hooked, Xiao Zhige hugged him tightly: "Don't worry, no more."
He still wanted to say something, but noticed that the breathing on the side of his neck had slowed down, and looked sideways in surprise, only to see that An Changqing had fallen asleep on his shoulders, and there was a slight wrinkle between his long eyebrows. mark.
With a shudder in his heart, Xiao Zhige gently picked him up and placed him on the bed, smoothed the wrinkles between his brows, and went out quietly.
Yu Xiao was sitting on the steps in front of the door. Seeing him, he was startled, and he jumped up like a rabbit and was about to call someone.
"Princess is asleep." Xiao Zhige made a silent gesture and said in a low voice.
Yu Xiao immediately covered her mouth and said in a low voice, "Princess has not rested since last night."
Xiao Zhige heard what he said and knew that something must have happened while he was in a coma. He nodded to Yu Xiao, told him to guard An Changqing, turned around and went to the front yard.
When the guard commander saw that he was awake, he breathed a sigh of relief and asked him. I dare not hide a series of things from last night to today.
Hearing that Ji Anmin had already checked his eyebrows and was going to Yizhuang to dig graves to find the bones as Sun Xinshi said, he just laughed: "It's much more capable than me."
After listening to it, the commander thought to himself that he was really capable, but who would dare to bring the Northern War King back into a daze if he couldn't do it.
The princess is really a tough character.
***
In less than half a day, the Sun brothers explained everything they knew.
They didn't know that the person who asked them to do things was the prince, but they guessed that it was also a nobleman. These brothers are greedy for money, but they are not stupid. Every time Sun Xinmin finds a candidate to send over, after a while, a skinned corpse will be sent to Yizhuang. Such a coincidence made them suspicious. He also became more determined to give himself a hole card just in case.
"First Clan"
Later, every time Sun Xinmin found a candidate, Sun Xinshi recorded the woman's appearance and physical characteristics in the booklet. When another body was sent for cremation later, they compared the physical features and identified them according to the booklet. If you recognize your identity, you will draw a red cross with a red pen, and then roughly record the cause of death, the date of death, and so on. If you don't recognize it, start a new page.
This booklet Sun Xinshi was kept very closely, but it was not prevented that the spies who pretended to be idiots would find it. In addition, An Changqing sent someone to control the family members of the Sun brothers. Therefore, in the first trial of Ji Anmin, they all confessed like pouring beans in a bamboo tube.
Not only the booklet, but in order to prevent them from speaking without evidence in the future, the brothers even deliberately left two corpses of women who could match their identities without burning them, and secretly buried them under the old tree behind the Yizhuang.
At this time, Ji Anmin had already taken the people from Dali Temple to Yizhuang to dig the body.
If the body can really be found, the Crown Prince's crime, I am afraid that the evidence of the crime is conclusive, and there is no defense.
***
Xiao Zhige tapped his fingers on his knees, feeling that this was not enough. These evidences at most ruined the prince's reputation. Emperor Anqing had to abolish the prince, but it was not enough to kill him.
Moreover, it was probably An Changqing's words that inspired him, and he suddenly had a brilliant idea.
After the commander retired, Xiao Zhige called in a spy again to inquire.
"Is there any movement over there, Crown Princess?"
The spy said: "There is no movement. After the concubine became pregnant, she has been behind closed doors. She only said that the pregnancy is unstable and needs to rest."
"Do you have relationships with people, especially men, in private?"
This time, the spy hesitated for a moment, and said, "The news that came from Kui Er did not communicate with the man, and the guards were all guarding the outside. However... Recently, a Taoist nun often came to teach the scriptures to the princess, and it seemed that she was the prince. The concubine is restless, and the Taoist nun can calm down when she speaks the scriptures."
"Taoist?" Xiao Zhige raised his eyebrows: "Go and find out the origin of this Taoist."
***
Ji Anmin led people to excavate two female corpses in Yizhuang. Although most of them were already decomposed, the back of Yizhuang was always cold and cold, perhaps because of the perennial morgue. Although the two female corpses had already begun to rot, the But still recognizable.
Zuo Zuo took the corpse for an autopsy, and Ji Anmin dispatched his staff to search for the file in the booklet overnight. In addition to a few of these women who were sold by their parents, there are many women from good families. If he suddenly disappeared, perhaps his family members would go to the government to report the crime. These files were all transferred from Jingzhao Yin, and they searched through the Dali Temple together, but they really found two old cases. The woman's appearance, name, etc. above can be matched with the roster records.
Dali Siqing watched him carefully put away the file and take it with him. He complained a little: "Your Majesty the Censor is already a very high-ranking official, so why bother to get involved here? It makes our Dali Temple not easy to be a human being."
Ji Anmin glanced at him, pointed his finger at the open roster, and said sternly: "There are nineteen lives on this booklet. In just five or six years, nineteen women died. All of them were tortured to death. I'm old, but I'm not blind, and my heart is not black!"
Dali Siqing wanted to say something, but saw him shaking his head and said: "I have been an official in the same dynasty with you for many years, and we are also on the same rank as a scholar, so it can be considered a little friendship, just to mention you, small things will be closed with one eye. Forget it, don't lose your head in big matters. I didn't know who the prince was before, but I should know now. If you are on the wrong team, no one can protect you."
After he finished speaking, he sorted out the files and evidence, handed it over to the two long servants who were beside him, and handed over and left. Although the two chiefs were dressed as servants, their stature was thin, as if guarding Ji Anmin on the left and the right.
Thinking of Ji Anmin's words, Dali Siqing was startled, and hurriedly called his confidant subordinates: "Go and see the Sun brothers in person, no one is allowed to enter without my permission. Remember to be careful and never call them. Died inexplicably!"
The confidant hesitated: "You didn't say..."
"Previously!" Dali Siqing remembered the old eunuch who came to deliver the message in the palace, took a deep breath, and a trace of ruthlessness appeared in his eyes: "Just do as I say!"
Although it is not clear whether Ji Anmin's allegiance is the Third Prince or the Northern War King, Dali Siqing is a jinshi on the same list as him, and he knows him quite well. He knows that this person is usually quiet, but his eyes have always been vicious. Despite the ups and downs, he not only did not fall down, but instead sat in the position of the third public.
Dali Siqing paced two steps, thinking that he should not be wrong to follow the old fox Ji Anmin.
The author has something to say: Commander: The princess is really a ruthless character
Cowardly: That is, the most capable (proud
Commander: ... (I don't seem to mean that
