Chapter 61: The evidence is all

There was silence in the imperial study room. The queen was sitting behind the bead curtain of the Nuan Pavilion. Although the emperor called her to come, as the head of the harem, she also understood that she only needed to listen, no need to say anything, let alone politics. Emperor Yanxi sat on the dragon chair and looked at the memorials between Prime Minister Zuo and Jun Chengrong again, his serious expression clearly not ready to drag on.
Putting the zhezi together, Emperor Yanxi said to Prime Minister Zuo: "When did Jun Chengxi sell private salt?"
"Return to the emperor. We did not know the exact time, only that the first person who discovered the incident and was wiped out was Zhao Qingnan, the prefect of Huaifeng three years ago. The five princes have been using the Huaifeng Chen family as a cover, and then contacted Gonglianhou. The government has cooperated and made huge profits of more than tens of millions in three years." Prime Minister Zuo said truthfully.
"Huaifeng Chen Family?" Emperor Yanxi frowned and thought.
"The Emperor Qizi, Huaifeng Chen's family is the mother of General Rong's wife." Prime Minister You said. It is well known that General Rong and his wife have a very good relationship. Mrs. Rong is not the daughter of an official family, but the daughter of a wealthy businessman. At that time, General Rong was only seventeen or eighteen years old. She was young and victorious, and she liked to lead soldiers in battle. A mistake in decision-making caused him to encounter an ambush and was injured. It happened to be seen by Miss Chen Jia who came back from Jinxiang and rescued him. After General Rong's victory, he found a matchmaker to give a betrothal gift, marrying Miss Chen beautifully home as Mrs.
"So, General Rong Mansion is also involved?" Emperor Yanxi asked.
Prime Minister Zuo said truthfully: "The emperor, after investigation, General Rong's Mansion was not involved."
"Even if you didn't participate, Jun Chengxi can connect to the Chen family. I don't believe that they don't know it." After all, selling private salt is a serious crime of decapitation. If you don't have a good network, you would not want to risk this if you want to come to the Chen family. risk.
"The emperor Shengming." Everyone responded.
"Take me a good look, as long as you are involved, you must ask them clearly, don't wrong them, and absolutely not let them go!" Emperor Yanxi said loudly, and then asked several princes, "What do you think?"
Jun Chengyan stepped up first and said: "My son never expected the fifth brother to do such a thing, and he was really terrified. But as the prince, the fifth brother would have no worries about food and clothing, so how could he sell private salt? Wouldn't someone instigate or deliberately frame it?"
"He is such an adult. If he really has no brain to be instigated by others, it can only mean that he hasn't put me in his eyes at all. He knows it is a capital crime, and he wants to get along with others. As for deliberately framed, I will find out. "Speaking of this, Emperor Yanxi glanced at Jun Chengyan again, and said: "Gonglian Hou Mansion is your mother's concubine's natal family. I am a little pleased that you did not participate in it. But you still have to avoid suspicion about this matter. Before the matter is over, you can stay in the house and don't run around."
"Yes." Jun Chengyan replied in a low voice. His lowered eyes narrowed, and he didn't know if he was dissatisfied with Emperor Yanxi's words, or angry at Gonglian Hou's imperfection, or both.
"What about you?" Emperor Yanxi asked the others again.
Jun Lixuan saluted: "Father, my son has a question in his heart."
"Let's talk." Emperor Yanxi looked at him.
"The Fifth Emperor's mansion is not considered luxurious. He usually doesn't have any hobbies to spend money. Although the mansion spends a lot of money, he has not exceeded his prince's duties. So the son is thinking, the profit is ten thousand taels of silver. Where are you going?" Jun Lixuan whispered.
This question surprised everyone present. This is indeed a problem. So much money not only did not allow the five princes to spend a lot of money, but was relatively frugal. Is the five princes all right to count silver to play, or is the money made? Is it actually used elsewhere?
"Father, Lixuan makes sense. With so much silver, Rong Erchen said something disrespectful. Unless he raises an army, why is the expense so high?" Jun Liche saluted.
Emperor Yanxi looked at his six sons, and this was what Jun Liche said, he would not feel angry, otherwise he would be furious when he changed any person to mention a private army. This is definitely a rebellion!
"The minister agrees with the views of Lord Chong and Lord Lin." Prime Minister You said.
Then all the officials reconsidered.
Emperor Yanxi thought for a moment, and said: "This matter needs to be investigated clearly, so let Yuan'er handle it. Yuan'er is always fair in doing things, and I can trust it."
"Yes, I must do my best to find out the truth." Jun Liyuan replied.
After talking about private salt, Emperor Yanxi said to the prince again: "You said that Jun Chengxi colluded with Gu Master and murdered the emperor's heir. What happened?"
Jun Chengrong stepped forward, knelt on the ground, and said, "I will tell my father, this matter is more complicated, and I ask Rong Erchen to explain it slowly. My son went on the expedition with the Seventh Emperor's brother, but for some reason, he left the capital. , The body has always been unwell, often fever and headache, and even sleepwalking hurt people. But the strange thing is that the imperial doctor did not find out the symptoms, only that the child minister may be caused by too much fatigue. Until one day, the child minister was there. On the battlefield, because of a sudden heartache and almost died, I realized that things were not that simple. Later, I was fortunate enough to be advised by an expert, saying that the child may have been hit by Gu, and this Gu worm should have been planted in Beijing. You can only save your life if you find the person under the Gu.
Jun Chengrong said sincerely, because he didn't want Jun Lixiu to divide his credit, so the medical sage and Ling Qiyang told him about the corpse thread Gu, which he deliberately concealed.
"Is it serious?" Emperor Yanxi gave Jun Lixuan a calm look.
Jun Lixuan replied: "Yes. Brother Dahuang has been unwell since he left Beijing, otherwise he would not be willing to go back to the palace. And the symptoms are the same as those in the army before, Qi Yang also has doubts. But Brother Dahuang always has The imperial physician attending the attendant, Qi Yang is inconvenient to intervene. In addition, although the big emperor brother is sleepwalking and hurting people, he is safe and has no worries about his life, so Qi Yang thinks that he may be over-concerned." I would never admit it, and I have never verified it anyway.
"You continue talking." Emperor Yanxi nodded and continued to ask Jun Chengrong.
"Yes. After Erchen returned to Beijing, people looked around for suspicious people, and also read a lot of books. No matter how they looked, they really looked like Zhonggu. The effort paid off, and he finally discovered the suspicious behavior. People. But this person has been going over the wall in the Five Emperor's Mansion. Erchen thought he might be the Five Emperor's brother, so he added manpower to follow this person, but didn't want to discover that the Five Emperor's Brother not only knew the existence of this person, The two of them often talked secretly in the study. For some reason, they never closed the door when they talked secretly. Once when the son heard the report from his hand, he hurried over and saw the two talk very happily. The tone and tone are similar to those from the south, and they are not from Ye people at all." Jun Chengrong said carefully, and what he said was good for him.
"That person didn't notice it?" Emperor Yanxi asked.
"I know that the guards in the mansion are not good at martial arts, so I can only use the clumsy method to arrange different people to follow every day, so even if he has the intention, he won't see the same face. This rotation continues, about a month Only then would he repeat the round. At that time, he would have forgotten the appearance of a person, not to mention that he didn't find anything." Jun Chengrong was still very proud of what he did.
"Are you sure you can catch that person?" Emperor Yanxi was obviously not relieved of Jun Chengrong's arrangements, but the corpse thread Gu did need to clarify the truth.
"Yes. Although the fifth emperor brother was banned, the man still went in and out of the five emperor brother's mansion, and the fifth emperor brother was also leisurely all day long. He did not seem to be affected, nor did he feel sorry for the imperial concubine's bereavement." Jun Cheng Rong said truthfully, "That day the imperial concubine suddenly had a miscarriage, and the mother and concubine felt a little strange, so let the sons and ministers pay more attention. The next morning, before dawn, the guards of the sons and ministers followed the Fifth Prince's Mansion. The sundries cart went to the incineration site, and found soaked safflower, tricornis, motherwort, and some herbs that broke swelling and silt in the debris thrown by the Five Princes' Mansion." After that, the prince let himself The close-fitting attendant brought up the evidence. The cloth bag containing the herbal medicine had been soaked in color by the potion, but the sign of the Five Princes Palace on it was still very clear. This bag didn't seem to be used anymore, so it was thrown there along with the herbal sundries.
Jun Chengyan looked at all this with no expression, no surprise, no panic, and no excuse for the five princes.
Jun Lixuan and the three of them were also silent, anyway, since this matter was borrowed by Jun Chengrong, let's borrow it to the end.
"Father, with such physical evidence, the helpers of the burning site can also testify. It can be seen that the five emperors deliberately murdered the imperial concubine and the children, and he is willing to ask the father to be the master of the children, and don't let the malicious people go." Jun Cheng Rong kowtow said.
Emperor Yanxi nodded and called the imperial physician. The imperial physician confirmed that, judging from the smell and color, the imperial concubine was indeed infected by the imperial concubine before and after the miscarriage.
"Okay, very good. This is the son I brought up!" Emperor Yanxi laughed in anger, and then he smiled and said loudly: "Come here! Go to Jun Chengxi Mansion and press everyone in the mansion into the Criminal Ministry The prison is presided over by the minister of the criminal ministry. If you find the Gu Master, you will also bundle it. If the person is not in the house, you must ask about his whereabouts and the abortion medicine. The medical sage said that the medicine was prepared by a novice, so I would I have some doubts, but today I want to see how new this newbie is!"
Then Emperor Yanxi said to his personal attendants: "Let the commander of the internal army search the Gonglian Hou Mansion to see if other evidence of selling illegal salt can be found. The Chen family will be sealed and detained until Hou is sent down."
After the officials took their orders, Emperor Yanxi sighed, "The matter must be investigated as soon as possible. Before our emperor and grandson are born, these people must be cleared."
"The minister waits to comply with the order." After the crowd bowed, they retreated.
The capital moved all at once. Gonglian Hou's Mansion was sealed, and the Five Princes' Mansion was also in chaos... The people looked at it from a distance. Some felt that the crime was deserved, while others said that the royal family had no father and son.
When Jun Lixuan returned to the mansion, Ling Qiyang was sitting at the table eating dumplings. Today is not a New Year's Day, but he suddenly wanted to eat.
Seeing Ling Qiyang eating happily, Jun Lixuan felt that all the fatigue of the day was wiped out. For the peace of his child, he must remove all obstacles in the way ahead.
Seeing him come back, Ling Qiyang smiled and waved to him, "You have just cooked dumplings, come and eat a few, it’s still early to leave."
"Yeah." Jun Lixuan smiled and sat down. He wasn't hungry, he just wanted to be with Ling Qiyang.
Ling Qiyang picked up a dumpling and brought it to Jun Lixuan's mouth. As soon as Jun Lixuan opened his mouth to bite, Ling Qiyang snorted, shaking his hand and the chopsticks and dumplings were already on the table.
"What's the matter?" Jun Lixuan jumped down and quickly supported him.
Ling Qiyang raised the corners of his mouth and put Jun Lixuan's hand on his stomach. Jun Lixuan only felt the skin under his hands jump, as if he was kicked by something.
Jun Lixuan looked at Ling Qiyang in surprise.
Ling Qiyang smiled and said: "The child moved, and I was shocked." This is the first time the child moved. As a father, Ling Qiyang was also very surprised.
"Well, it moved..." Jun Lixuan was a little dazed, but the surprise in his eyes was obvious. For the first time, he felt that this life was so close to him that he needed to be careful to protect and love. Bowing his head and kissing Ling Qiyang's forehead, Jun Lixuan whispered: "Thank you..."
Ling Qiyang raised his eyes to look at him, and said with a chuckle: "Fool..."
