Chapter 6

Even Eunuch De, who had kept his eyes closed, narrowed his eyes and glanced at the two of them.

"My lord, please see that the golden crown has not been stolen, but has been intentionally polluted! And my father is just a victim."

"what?"

"You said the golden crown was not stolen?"

"How is it possible, you are talking nonsense, and you are confusing the public with your demonic words."

"How do you prove it?"

"My lords, if you need proof, you only need to find an old craftsman who will be the supervisor, and you can get the truth."

"you sure?!"

In fact, at this point, everyone already understood that most of what she said was true. It was impossible for her to lie about such a simple matter, and that would not do her any good.

Eunuch De, who was originally a tool man, couldn't hold back anymore, "Hurry up, call the supervisor to send a master craftsman over here."

………………

Master Jiang Zuojian is an old man surnamed Zhou in his 50s. He has devoted his life to researching gold making and has made countless unique gold ornaments.When he was summoned by his immediate superior, he was making gold ornaments for the ladies, and he was quite dissatisfied with the summons.

When his superior, the supervisor, heard that he was the one that Eunuch De wanted, he coaxed and threatened him and sent him over.

Seeing so many big men, he felt a little guilty for a while.I have seen more noble people in one day than I have seen in my whole life. They are all great people in legends, and I don't know why.

Guo Shilang looked at old man Zhou, "Master, let's see what's going on with this silver crown."

Wu Yushi hurriedly interjected, "You have to be careful, and don't be careless."

Eunuch De said coldly, "Master Wu, speak carefully."

Obviously dissatisfied with his repeated crime taboo.

The old man Zhou walked up to the box and saw the silver-gray "crown hat" and couldn't help but change his expression, "Who did this? That wicked person did such evil things."

"Oh?" What is there to say here.

"Gentlemen, please forgive the villain for his misbehavior. It's just that this matter is too bad. I don't know how many craftsmen have put together this golden crown. After being treated like this, they are all useless. This is a treasure!"

"Talk slowly, what's the point in this?"

"My lords, I can't tell you the exact reason, but I know that this golden crown was destroyed artificially. It's a pity, it's a pity."

What he said was not clear, but the meaning he wanted to express was also expressed. This is the original golden crown.The golden crown was not stolen.

But what about the pollution he was talking about.

"My lord, this golden crown was sprayed with mercury, that's why it became like this." Lu Ningshuang pointed out the root of the problem.

When Zhou Jiangzuo heard this, he quickly gave a thumbs up, "This girl is very knowledgeable. When gold meets mercury, it will become like this."

"Gold will change color like this when sprayed with mercury?" Eunuch De asked curiously, "Is there any way to restore it to its original appearance?"

Zhou Jiangzuo said confidently, "It's not difficult, and it can be restored to its original state by roasting it with refined fire."

"Quick, quick, prepare gold and mercury according to what they said, I want to see for myself", Eunuch De became excited and completely forgot the original intention of being a tool man.

After a while, the servants prepared a few small pieces of gold ingots and mercury.

Eunuch De looked at Lu Ningshuang, his expression was full of thirst for knowledge, like a scumbag looking at a bully, "Miss Lu, what should I do?"

The old eunuch has been in the palace all his life, and he has already lived a fine life. Although the golden crown has not changed back, the case is considered closed, and the young and old of the Lu family have also saved it.

That's why he has become Miss Lu in terms of address. As for whether he can return to the official status, it has to be decided by His Majesty the Emperor.

Lu Ningshuang stepped forward, "Mr. De, please take a look, just pour mercury on top of the gold."

While talking, she picked up the mercury cup and carefully dripped a few drops onto the gold ingot.

"Yo - yo... yo, this is really like a magic trick, it's amazing!" The eunuch smiled like a flower.

The other adults also stared wide-eyed, showing an inconceivable look.

Wu Yushi could even stuff a duck egg into his mouth, "How is it possible, how is it possible?"

Lu Ningshuang curled her lips, despising each of these ignorant old hats in her heart.

snort!With the knowledge of this era, especially those who are officials, how would they know that mercury and gold will react to form Jin Gongqi?

"Why? How did such a change happen?" Eunuch De had a hundred thousand reasons hidden in his heart, full of thirst for knowledge.

Eunuch De looked at Jiangzuo Zhou and saw that he was also confused, so he looked like Lu Ningshuang again.

Before she had time to answer, she heard Wu Yushi's roar, "This is impossible—absolutely impossible, it must be a blindfold. Even if it is not a blindfold, it must be a demon."

His face was livid, like a villain.

The thousand-year-old foxes present all had thoughtful expressions, and their mouths were all tightly glued.I keep everything in my heart, but I don't say it in front of others.

Zhou Jiangzuo looked at this adult who was a bit out of his mind, and cowardly added, "This nobleman, roasting the mercury-contaminated gold can restore it to its original appearance. Don’t you know the truth that all apprentices understand?”

The meaning of Zhou Jiangzuo is very simple. This is something that even the apprentices know. It is impossible for this high-ranking man not to know?

The faces of several adults were a little burned.If he knew this truth, how could this case be so complicated?I can't say this...

Lu Ningshuang thought, old comrade, you should be more confident and remove the word "?", they just don't know.

"Old man, shut up, you are deceiving people too much." Wu Yushi said without hesitation.

By this time, the gold crown theft case had come to light. The real gold crown had not been stolen, it was just covered up by means.Since the golden crown was not stolen, the mastermind of the theft who was unanimously testified in this case was not Lu Shangshu.

He is innocent, and of course the treason he was accused of before is also non-existent.Even if he is guilty, it is only a crime of negligence and dereliction of duty, which is very different from the previous conspiracy.

When several presiding judges met their eyes, they understood.Guo Shilang spoke first, "My dear niece, you have been wronged. If you hadn't been quick-witted, you would have almost wronged a good man. I will immediately write a letter to His Majesty, and I will have to wrong my niece for a few days."

When Lu Ningshuang heard the other party's words, she finally put her heart in her stomach. She cupped her hands and saluted, "My niece, thank you uncles for your care. If it weren't for the impartiality of these uncles, the grievances of my niece's family would not be resolved. Ningshuang Here, I would like to thank all the uncles. In the future, Ningshuang will follow her father to the door to pay her respects."

The adults saw that this woman was so upright, she was not only polite, but also did not mention the grievances she had suffered, let alone take credit for her pride, which is very rare.

Several other people acquiesced that the case was closed and were about to write a closing statement, but Wu Yushi couldn't let it go. He yelled, "This case can't end here, there are many doubts."

Everyone felt unhappy for a while, you are not just looking for trouble, but you want to do something.

Eunuch De glanced at him contemptuously, "Oh, I don't know what else Mr. Wu has to say? Wasn't it the stolen golden crown that was interrogated before? Now that the golden crown has been found, is there any doubt?"

"Who is in charge of this case, why do you want to prevent His Highness the crown prince from being crowned? Isn't it murdering the prince? Isn't it a big treason?"

When everyone heard this, their hearts trembled, and they shouted in unison, "Shut up! Stop talking nonsense."

Can they not be afraid, if the investigation continues, it will cause a lot of trouble, don't you think about it, such a big case, just sent a few deputies to the trial, doesn't it explain the problem?
Do you think we didn't die fast enough?
Lu Ningshuang also thumped in her heart. She had doubts in her heart for a long time, but she dared not say anything.
