Chapter 30
Huihui Pavilion was originally the property of the Empress Dowager and the Crown Princess' natal family, Chengenhou Mansion, the warehouse of Huihui Pavilion was bombed, and the people of Chengenhou Mansion were naturally called in for questioning.

After the old housekeeper of Cheng Enhou's Mansion was called in for questioning, no matter how he thought about it when he went back, he felt that something was wrong. He always felt that the young man guarding the warehouse looked very familiar, but he couldn't remember where he had seen him for a while.

I don't want to wake up and suddenly have a flash of inspiration. I remembered that it was the son of Qian Donglai, the former owner of Huihui Pavilion!
That boy looks very similar to Qian Donglai, but it's been a long time, he didn't remember it for a while!
The Qian family is a merchant, and they have been running Huihui Pavilion since their ancestors. When the business was doing well, they opened many branches.

In Qian Donglai's generation, due to the lack of means to manage the family, the business gradually decreased, leaving only the basic foundation.

Later, the Chengenhou Mansion bought the Huihui Pavilion at a price of 20 taels of silver, and Qian Donglai moved his family out of the capital.

Now his only son has gone to Huihui Pavilion to become a warehouse boy, no matter how tricky he looks!
The Queen Mother's natal nephew and the father of the Crown Princess Wang Miaoer, the current Cheng Enhou personally brought the old housekeeper to the Ministry of Punishment.

Huihui Pavilion specializes in all kinds of rare treasures, gold and silver jewellery, and makes money every day. On the surface, it is the largest source of money for the Chengenhou Mansion, but in fact it is the private property of the Crown Princess Wang Miaoer, so he naturally attaches importance to it.

Now so many good things in the warehouse have been blown to ashes, and it will be more visible later that it will affect the business. Whose wife dares to buy jewelry in a place where the warehouse will explode?
Every time Cheng Enhou thinks of this, the fat all over his body hurts!
Their Chengenhou Mansion is really unlucky in the past. First, that wicked Wang Yuaner did such a rebellious thing, and now they have been blown up in the Huihui Pavilion!

The people in the punishment department didn't dare to neglect, and hurriedly interrogated the boy guarding the warehouse.

Hearing the old housekeeper's accusation, the young man calmly took out a skirt covered in blood from his bosom, knelt down and said, "My lord, Qian Guangzu, a grass-roots man, sued Chengen Houshi to seize my Qian family's ancestral property, He also sent servants to pretend to be robbers, waiting to snatch back the silver tickets to buy Huihui Pavilion on the road.

Caomin's mother was killed in the scramble, and his father was pushed to the ground by them, broke his leg, and died of a serious illness soon after.

Immediately, the younger sister also died young due to no one to take care of her, and the whole family was left alone, a grass-roots person!
Caomin knew very well that they were weak, if they directly beat the drum to sue the mothers of the Queen Mother and the Crown Princess, they would definitely not be able to survive the killing blow, so they had to come up with such a bad plan, and please forgive me!I also ask my lord to avenge the grievances of my Qian family! "

Cheng Shangshu's eyes were straightened when he heard it. In this case, the Huihui Pavilion was bombed. Almost everyone thought it was the murderer who killed Gray to hide his whereabouts.

He also thought so, and the focus was all on investigating Gray's death, but he didn't expect that the Empress Dowager and the Crown Princess' natal families were involved in the murder of their parents, forcing the Qian family to die!

Is his Shangshu almost done?
Marquis Cheng En was also dumbfounded, and it took him a long time to react. He kicked Qian Guangzu to the ground and chased him hard, "Untouchable! How dare you spit dung all over your mouth and slander this Marquis! How dare you touch the Queen Mother!" And the Crown Princess! This Marquis killed you!"

Wen Chu strode forward and stretched out his hand to pull him. Unexpectedly, Cheng Enhou was tall and fat, and he couldn't hold him. He was pulled by him and almost fell down. He shouted angrily, "This is the hall of the Ministry of Justice! Do you want to be included in a copy?"

Cheng Enhou came to his senses, and kicked Qian Guangzu hard again, then returned to his seat and sat down, humming heavily, "Your punishment department doesn't care about this untouchable who slanders me so much?"

Wen Chu refused to budge, "The Ministry of Punishment will naturally investigate the right and wrong, and don't bother Lord Hou to point it out!"

Cheng Enhou's sparse beards trembled one by one.

Cheng Shangshu subconsciously held his goatee, which had become thinner in just two days, and said with a headache, "Master Hou, don't worry, I'll ask you clearly."

There are two points of evidence presented by Qian Guangzu. One is that Huihui Pavilion is the ancestral property of the Qian family, and the Qian family would never sell it unless it was a last resort. Obviously, the Qian family had not yet had a last resort.

The second is that at that time, the Qian family moved away from the capital and hired many guards. During the fight, a servant of Cheng Enhou's mansion was slashed on his left shoulder by the guards, and his face towel was torn off. Qian Donglai recognized him, otherwise Qian The family doesn't even know who the enemy is!
Cheng Shangshu immediately ordered someone to arrest the servant, and sure enough, a scar on his left shoulder almost ran through the entire shoulder.

The servant refused to admit it, and only said that his scar was from a competition with others.

Therefore, the servant who competed with him was also called over and confirmed his words.

But apart from the two of them, no one else saw the process of their competition with their own eyes.

That is to say, it is possible that the two servants have colluded with each other for a long time, and it is also possible that Qian Guangzu fabricated these remarks by seeing the servant's scars by chance.

It has been 12 years since the incident happened, and it has been a long time. It is not a matter of time to find evidence and witnesses.

Cheng Shangshu didn't dare to be negligent, and ordered Qian Guangzu and the two servants to be imprisoned for trial, while he hurried into the palace.

The case involved the emperor's mother and daughter-in-law, so he naturally wanted to report to heaven immediately.

Today's Emperor Zhenghe is in his early fifties, and Di Wei looks very young with a three-point refined look.

Hearing Cheng Shangshu's words, Fang asked after a while, "Is this incident related to Gray's murder?"

Cheng Shangshu prostrated himself on the ground, not daring to raise his head at all, "The old minister has already checked carefully. Since Qian Guangzu came to the capital two years ago and found an errand in Huihui Pavilion, he has been living in Huihui Pavilion and rarely goes out. Never deal with people.

The Qian family has never had any grievances with Jin Yiwei, so it is unlikely that it has anything to do with Commander Ge's death.

Qian Guangzu confessed that he had been waiting for the right time since he tried to get the gunpowder and buried it in the warehouse.

According to him, he didn't want to harm innocent people, so he had to blow up the warehouse.

But even if the warehouse of Huihui Pavilion is blown up, the movement will not be too big. When he enters the Yamen of Jingzhao Mansion, as soon as he tells his purpose, Jingzhao Yin can easily suppress him.

All he had to do was to wait for a big mess, so chaotic that no one could suppress it, and no one dared to suppress it, and appealed his grievances together.

Therefore, as soon as he heard that Commander Ge was shot dead in the street, he knew his chance had come, and took advantage of the chaos to ignite the explosives."

Zheng He laughed back in anger, "Well, the son of a merchant is actually so brave and resourceful, I, Da Xiao, are indeed talented!"

Cheng Shang didn't dare to lift his head, let alone answer the words.

"Check it out for me! Check it out thoroughly! I want to see how many capable people and strangers there are under the emperor's feet!"

Cheng Shangshu respectfully responded, got up and saluted, and stepped back to leave.

Before he left, he took a look, and the gold brick he had just rested on his forehead was already wet.

……

……

Another thorough investigation!

How to investigate thoroughly?

Cheng Shangshu's head was getting big, but Wen Chu took the initiative to ask for orders to go to Cheng'enhou's mansion to interrogate the relevant people and so on.

Although the two cases seem to be unrelated, both cases happened in Hat Alley, and happened one after the other. Maybe when he finds out, he will find the connection!
Cheng Shangshu also knew that at this point, he couldn't escape the blame no matter whether he investigated it or not, so he might as well handle it impartially and find out the truth.

At that time, no matter what the truth is, whether it is Cheng Enhou's mansion, the queen mother and princess, or even the emperor, he cannot be blamed!

He's just running errands!
 It's on the Qingyun list, little cuties give a lot of support, thank you Mr. Wen who is serious about investigating the case online (*^_^*)
