His Royal Highness, he is plotting against me

Chapter 46 Suspicious People
For two full days,

Zhuang Ming, Zheng Shilang and others dug out fifty or sixty pits in Baijia Village, large and small, ranging in depth.

Countless white bones are placed in front of you, as well as broken beams, remnants of walls, and mortise and tenon structures that are suspected of being the main building of the house...

I don't know where the newly turned soil came from, but it can no longer cover up the stench below.

And these all show a fact:
Below, there used to be a village with more than 100 people!
"Master Xiaozhuang..."

Zheng Shilang's complexion turned pale, and he had already vomited no less than three times.

God knows that before he became the servant of the Ministry of Punishment, he was also a powerful thief?

A powerful operation can make "the dead speak".

It was precisely because of this that he was transferred to the side of Mr. Xun of the Ministry of Criminal Justice. After 20 years of hard work and cracked countless cases, he finally reached the position of chief of the first department.

Although he did not investigate all the cases in the world, he had never seen such a large...

It's simply a mass grave, a dead grave!

Zhuang Ming also turned blue.

He sat on the stone with a blank expression, gnawed on the dry food that had begun to harden, and stared at the rolling hills not far away.

"It's enough to be here, Mr. Zheng has worked hard."

Among the people he brought, there was no Zuo Zuo, after all, no one expected such a situation.

Thanks to Master Zheng.

Zheng Shilang waved his hand. He hadn't eaten for a day, so he drank some water if he couldn't take it anymore.

After all, he almost vomited bile.

Zheng Shilang felt that there was almost everything in the bags of these horses in Dali Temple.

He watched them take out some strange-looking white bags, and put the excavated human bones, broken beams, etc., and the new soil into them respectively.

"It's really thanks to Mr. Xiaozhuang this time."

It's no wonder that Dali Temple is in charge of major and important cases. Their Ministry of Criminal Justice...

There are these things too, but I really can't take them out right now.

Like him, I thought I was well prepared.

For murder cases, autopsy is required, and he himself is the best author.

Selling officials and nobles, the colleagues in Shangjing have been checking the list of officials recommended by Lu and his disciples in recent years with the officials.

For the land enclosure case, the Ministry of Household Affairs is investigating the land status of Fan Yang recorded in the file.

What they want to investigate on this trip, apart from the murder case, is the actual ownership of the land.

So he brought himself, two officers who could investigate cases, and borrowed two from the capital to investigate the land, and Chen Zhuolin, who was highly skilled in martial arts.

But what about this way?

They were clearly arranged by Lord Xiaozhuang.

Can't compare!

Can't compare!
~~~

evening,

They returned to the ruined temple where they settled.

The travel and dust servants who came from Shangjing are all unshaven now, and they still exude a strange smell.

Especially with so many dozen or twenty people gathered together...

Chen Zhuolin settled down with his boss expressionlessly, and was about to go out to find some dry wood to start a fire.

It's not hot at night, but they need a fire for some hot water.

"Master Chen stay behind!"

As soon as he walked out of the ruined temple, six people from Dali Temple and the Ministry of Punishment came to stop him.

He squinted his eyes and looked over. They were two of the three teams sent by Mr. Xiaozhuang.

So Chen Zhuolin stood where he was, and asked when they were about to approach:

"What's the matter with the adults?"

One of the officials of the criminal division clasped his fists at him,

"Master Chen, we caught a suspicious person in Xiaonanshan, but the other party said..."

"Say it's your own brother."

The question mark on Chen Zhuolin's face?

His own brother?

Xiao Nanshan caught it?
"Lord Lu must not have made a mistake, it is true that I have three younger brothers, and they are all in Shangjing at this time—"

After he finished speaking, he suddenly remembered something, so he paused first.

Just at the end, a man who was tied up and gagged began to struggle violently.

"Uuuuuu-"

Brother, it's me!

Your dear brother, it's true!
Chen Zhuolin finally realized something, and walked behind them.

The people from Dali Temple stepped aside, revealing the people tied into rice dumplings behind them...

"Guylin?"

"Uuuuuu-"

Brother, dear brother!

It's me!
Chen Zhuolin frowned, "Why are you here?"

Chen Guilin: "Ummmmmm——"

Untie me quickly!

This errand is really not done by humans.

The prince's staff is really dark, if I knew it earlier, I wouldn't cooperate with them.

Chen Zhuolin personally untied him, and the people from Dali Temple laughed and said:

"Master Chen, is he really your brother?"

"He was jumping up and down Xiaonan Mountain. The brothers found him when they were checking the surrounding area. After turning around, this kid was still following us. He thought he was here to follow us!"

Maybe the co-author came to find his brother?
After Chen Zhuolin untied him, he apologized to everyone:
"I delayed a few things. After I go back, I will be the host in Zuihelou, and I will make amends to my brother!"

"Wherever it is, we are preparing to come back."

"Your Majesty Chen is polite, it's just a matter of convenience..."

"I heard that Zuihelou's shochu is called a strong one!"

"Hahaha, then we will wait!"

"Oh, by the way, Lord Chen will take Lingdi to Lord Xiaozhuang and Lord Zheng later to have a talk."

After all, he was caught in Xiaonanshan, and Lord Chen's own brother also had to ask a question.

Knowing the rules, Chen Zhuolin naturally thanked his brothers and said that he would bring people here as soon as he said a few words.

Everyone still gave him this face, mainly because the Chen family had nothing to do with this case.

After seeing off Master Xiaozhuang and Master Zheng's colleagues on business, he grabbed Chen Guilin by the collar and carried him to the side of a tree.

"Brother, take it easy!"

"The neck is broken, the neck is broken, it hurts!"

Chen Guilin was also exhausted during this time, he just had a fight with the people from the Lu family, and almost got into another fight with the people who turned around and met the prince.

After finally misunderstanding, he turned around and took on a job with Dali Temple and the Ministry of Criminal Justice, and was beaten up by this group of people.

"Brother, why are the people from the Ministry of Punishment and Dali Temple so powerful!"

Since he was young, he has good bones, and he is better than his elder brother in learning martial arts. He thought that he would be invincible immediately, and wanted to become a general.

As a result, several officials from the Dali Temple and the Ministry of Punishment beat him so that he was powerless.

Chen Zhuolin let go and gave him a disdainful look.

Do you still think that the people coming back from Dali Temple are ordinary officials?
At least those two who were by Zhuang Ming's side had martial arts no less than their masters.

"Tell me, how long have you been here?"

Now that he met his elder brother, Chen Guilin naturally did not hide anything.

He went to Fan Yang secretly a month ago under the pretext of going back to Runan, and indeed collected a lot of evidence this month.

"There are still several key witnesses in the hands of the prince."

"The prince's people are also in Fan Yang?"

Chen Guilin took it for granted: "Isn't that right?! Many of the prince's original people in Fan Yang have been removed, and the latter group is a few days later than me."

He is also a little proud.

Because the people who came after the prince found not as much evidence as him!

The Chen family helped the prince so much this time, the prince should treat his sister better, right?
Chen Zhuolin looked at his younger brother with the same playful smile, but just looking at his injuries, it was not difficult to guess what he had experienced this month.

It's just that this is the path he has to walk, and no matter how much suffering he suffers, he can only bear it by himself.

"I see, I'll take you to meet Lord Xiaozhuang and Lord Zheng later, you can find a way to explain why you are in Xiaonanshan!"

And how to tell the two adults in a reasonable, legal and compliant manner, how he had inadvertently collected so much evidence.

Chen Zhuolin's stern face showed a kind of playful smile, which caused Chen Guilin to say that his elder brother "will not save him when he dies" and has no "brotherhood".
