After a moment's hesitation, Liu Wei cast her eyes back on the list. She rubbed the curling arc at the corner of the paper with her fingers. After a while, she asked, "are you sure?"
Duke hang looked at Liu Wei and said, "naturally!"
In this way, things become simple.
No matter Princess Qinyang or the palace people who died in a strange way, their death has been explained.
But who dares to report it?
The case of Princess Yuping has already been a mystery. Princess Yuping disappeared in the palace. She died outside the palace. Her body was taken back to the palace and disappeared again. This series of strange things have been widely spread in the Imperial City, leading to people's panic.
Now, Princess Qinyang's death is also involved with Princess Yuping.
What is Princess Yuping going to do? Or, what is someone doing with Princess Yuping?
Duke hang was silent for a long time. When he spoke again, he was begging: "my Lord, this matter..."
"I will report it to the emperor." Liu Wei first went to Hangzhou.
Mr. hang shook his head: "no, it can't be reported. The miscellaneous family said that it's also for the sake of your excellency. The emperor had a lot of scruples about the case of Princess Yuping. Now I know that the case is like snowballing. The more it rolls, the bigger it gets. If we want to solve the case, it must involve a lot. I think it will be Longyan's rage. At that time, there will be more than just miscellaneous families and adults. Other people involved in this matter are afraid that they will not be able to get rid of it. "
The Duke of Hang said, looking at the left and right sides, and making sure that the partition wall has no ears, then he said: "at present, only adults and other families know about this matter. Later, the other families will order us to find a palace man who has made a mistake and put the case in the past. At that time, only adults have a speech. We will make the matter small and trivial, and we will be happy..."
"Grandpa Hang is wrong." Liu Wei looked at the old and cunning eunuch coldly and said calmly, "it's a small matter to find someone to answer for the crime, but now, not counting those seven people, there are only 12 people who are really sacrificing to one door. Four elephants belong to eight, 286. If I guess right, at least four people will die in the next few days. We only know that the murderer is taking the four round paths of Puxiang palace as the object of sacrifice, but we don't know what kind of sacrifice he is offering, that is to say, we are not sure that if we kill 16 people, the murderer will be satisfied. Besides, the old people coming out of Puxiang palace must be more than the seven who died. What about the others? Will they be killed one after another? If we close the case in a hurry and the murderer continues to commit the crime afterwards, how can the emperor explain it? Is the Duke of Hang willing to stand up to a crime of deceiving the king and be covered with trees? "
Liu Wei said so. He was so scared that Duke hang turned pale and gnashed his teeth for a while. He was helpless: "that adult said, what should I do?"
Liu Wei was silent for a moment and said, "I am sure I can. It's just that the emperor has every opportunity to meet me. It's still unknown whether he has time."
In a daze, Duke hang looked at Liu Wei and said, "Lord Liu means..."
Liu Wei said: "it seems that Duke hang and xiaoqizi are very familiar, which is not obvious to other people before the emperor."
It's so clear. If Grandpa Hang still doesn't understand, he will spend his whole life in the palace in vain.
The Duke of Hang nodded his head and said with a smile, "you are really wise."
Liu Wei didn't reply.
The Duke of Hang said that he would do it as soon as he could. Someone was sacrificing the dead in the form of a map on the palace floor, which was quite a matter of fact.
When Duke hang knew about it, he immediately asked the emperor.
But Qi Fu, the great eunuch next to the emperor, stopped him, saying that the emperor was summoning cabinet ministers to discuss state affairs.
Duke hang couldn't, so he had to wait outside.
But after waiting all afternoon, I didn't see the emperor.
It's not too late. The murderer is likely to continue to commit the crime. After hesitating for many times, Duke hang finally submitted a written report, saying the sacrifice was clear and clear, so he no longer waited. Instead, he went back to the house of internal affairs and continued to investigate the case.
However, Duke hang did not know that the document report was put in front of the emperor by the little eunuch who served him, but because of the busy government affairs of the emperor, there were too many memorials on the Royal case, and his document was accidentally touched under the table by no one, until the case was solved, it was not found.
After all, Duke hang stuffed a bag of silver to the little eunuch who did things for him, and then he went back to the interior office with relief.
Liu Wei was still there in the study of the house of internal affairs. Once Mr. hang went back, he said that it was finished.
Liu Wei did not raise his head, and said: "according to the previous death time of a total of 19 people, the murderer's next murder should be at midnight tonight to Yinshi, and the location of the crime should be princess Xinluo's dream palace."
This speculation is not sure whether it is right or wrong, but Duke Hang still believes in Liu Wei.
No way, he figured it out. Without Mr. Liu, the case would not be solved in his whole life. As a major official of the interior government, if the harem has been so restless all the time, his incompetent rank, if lucky, would only be removed. If unlucky, he would be punished by death and fall on his head.
Therefore, after the two sides got tangled, Duke hang decided that no matter what Lord Liu said or did, he would just listen.Anyway, relying on Lord Liu to solve the case, relying on himself, I'm afraid there is no hope at all.
Because if you want to wait for a rabbit in the dream palace, naturally you need to tell the head of the family that Princess Xinluo is still young, and Princess Li's wife becomes the person to discuss.
Liu Wei is a "foreign man" and naturally can't ask for advice.
So the job of persuading the concubine's wife is that of Duke hang, who deserves to be an old man in the house of internal affairs. After a few words, he settled the matter.
In fact, Mr. hang didn't say that he would come here to catch the murderer. He just said that he knew that Princess Xinluo had died. He was afraid that Princess Xinluo would follow Princess Qinyang's footsteps. The house of internal affairs attached great importance to this matter. He specially ordered people to patrol in mengxiang Palace. So tonight, there may be many people in mengxiang palace, but don't be afraid. This is to protect Princess Xinluo.
Concubine Li's identity is low. Her daughter has an accident. She can get the attention of the chief of the house of internal affairs. Naturally, she can't get it.
He thanked the Duke of hang, and immediately ordered the people in the dream palace to stay away from home tonight, and half of them were close to the princess Xinluo's house.
It's night. Everything is still.
Everything seems to be ready.
Liu Wei sat in a temple sponsored by the concubine, looking out of the window at the bright moonlight, and asked the Duke of hang, "haven't you come back yet?"
The Duke of Hang knew what Liu Wei was talking about, and he said: "it's estimated that it's fast, but I don't understand it. Adults don't say that the less people know about it, the better. Too many people know about it. I'm afraid that it will save time, but why adults..."
"Why are you looking for my father-in-law?"
Mr. hang nodded. He didn't understand. He had been very well prepared tonight. But when it came to the end of the day, Mr. Liu suddenly came up with the idea that he would find Mr. hang.
