Chapter 837
Wang Pingan asked: "Uncle Shi, why did you use my nephew's bodyguards? It's inconvenient for them to enter the palace. Who do you want to get rid of?"

Shi Zhongchen smiled and said: "Who else can it be? It's just for you to close the case. Someone has to jump out and surrender, isn't it? Is it possible to use a living person? But if you want to get rid of that person, do you still want to do it yourself?" No?"

What he meant was very clear. Anyway, someone has to "kill" Concubine Xiao Shu to death, so just find a little eunuch. He said that this little eunuch was beaten and scolded by Concubine Xiao Shu and wanted revenge. Anyway, there is no proof of death, and no one will go. check.And Concubine Xiao Shu was indeed abused by some little eunuchs when she was in distress. This was a foreshadowing. It made sense that she was killed by her former enemy in the cold palace.

And if the little eunuch surrendered alive, it would be impossible. Who is not afraid of death?If you say something before you die, wouldn't it be troublesome? Why don't you just use a dead person? You only need to stuff a "confession" in the pocket of this little eunuch, saying that he is the murderer who killed Concubine Xiao Shu. To investigate, so committing suicide in fear of crime, it's all right, once it's done, there will be no future troubles.

But if you want to kill the little eunuch, you can't do it openly, and the little eunuch is not Concubine Xiao Shu. If the Shi brothers do it, I'm afraid it may not be possible. If someone else kills him, he has to kill him. It's very troublesome. So it's better to use Wang Ping'an's men, that's the best.Anyway, Wang Ping'an's subordinates are killing people like hemp, and they don't care about one more life in their hands!

But Wang Ping'an didn't do it. His subordinates are very innocent. Sweeping the floor will not hurt the lives of ants. They cherish the moth veil lamps. They never do murder and set fire, let alone enter the palace to kill people!

Wang Ping'an said: "Uncle Shi, even if I send my nephew's guards into the palace to get rid of that person, my nephew will have to silence them afterward. It was wiped out. According to me, it’s better to use the official outside and let him get rid of those in the palace, and then I will get rid of him. Isn’t that better, anyway, that official must be removed!”

Shi Zhongchen snorted, and said, "You brought an official? The scapegoat was found so quickly! Very good, then let him come in and show it to our family!"

Wang Pingan agreed, went out in person, and brought Li Yifu in.

Li Yifu is an insignificant official, this is the first time he has entered the central area of ​​the palace.If Guanyun Palace is compared with the outside, it is equivalent to the three provinces of Zhongshu Sheng, Menxia Sheng, and Shangshu Sheng in one, and Shi Zhongchen is even known as the inner minister. He is one of the most important figures in the Tang Dynasty. Changsun Wuji's crooked mouth!

In this life, I have never talked face to face with such an important person!After Li Yifu entered the hall, without waiting for Wang Ping'an's introduction, he knelt down to Shi Zhongchen and said, "I'm a low-ranking Li Yifu, and I'm going to be Chief Supervisor Shi."

Shi Zhongchen hummed, and said, "Raise your head and let our family take a look."

Li Yifu raised his head respectfully, and let Shi Zhongchen see his appearance.Shi Zhongchen nodded, and said: "You look fairly decent. Your name is Li Yifu? Very good, our family intends to adopt you as a foster son, are you willing?"

Li Yifu is overjoyed, being a eunuch's son is a disgrace to others, but it is not a shame to him, he can completely accept it, and he will not feel any embarrassment psychologically, with such a big backer, but he used to not even dream undreamed of.

He hurriedly said: "Father-in-law, my son Li Yifu kowtows to you!" He thought very well in his heart, thinking that Cao Cao, a generation of celebrities in the Three Kingdoms era, was also a descendant of the eunuch, and he was also the grandson of the eunuch, following the eunuch's lead The surname, as a grandson, passed on from generation to generation.What do you mean by yourself, but you just recognize a adoptive father, you don’t even need to change your surname, you can get a super hard backer all at once, this is a great thing, and there is an advantage in currying favor with eunuchs, that is, you don’t have to sacrifice your concubine .

Even Shi Zhongchen couldn't remember how many godsons he had. One more is not too much, and one less is not much. He doesn't care anymore.He said: "In the Chaozhong Palace, countless people want to worship under our family, but our family has chosen to take advantage of you. Do you know why?"

Wang Pingan grinned as he listened.Listen, let the eunuch be your son, or the eunuch give you face!Shi Zhongchen and Wei Zhongxian both carry the word loyalty, what is their origin?
Li Yifu snorted, he is a smart person, so he can naturally think of why he is so "cheap".He said: "The adoptive father is working hard on Xiao Shufei's case? My son is willing to share the worries for the adoptive father!"

Shi Zhongchen nodded and said: "Okay, he is a good boy and knows how to be filial. Our family is indeed worried about Xiao Shi's case. It would be great if you solve it. You will follow your old uncle and your prime minister. Let's go, and do things according to their orders. Patriotic, this child will be handed over to you in the future, if the elder brother and I are gone, you will take care of him, understand?"

Shi Aiguo replied: "Elder brother lives a long life, why did he say such unlucky words. My brother will take good care of this child from Yifu in the future."

Shi Zhongchen hummed, closed his eyes, and waved his hands.Shi Aiguo and Wang Ping'an took Li Yifu out of Guanyun Hall together, and went to Ningxue Pavilion to solve the big case.

After leaving the courtyard, Shi Aiguo pulled Wang Pingan over and whispered, "The person who is about to surrender is Mi Xiaomiao's subordinate, and he has been sent to the imperial garden to sweep the ground. It is very secluded and there are many trees. It is very suitable for committing suicide in fear of crime!"

Wang Pingan chuckled dryly, thinking: "If someone was killed there, the emperor will not be allowed to play in the future. It would be a waste of resources in the palace."

The two of them walked slowly in front, and Li Yifu followed behind.

Li Yifu is just like dreaming now, he never thought that his day of prosperity will come so soon, so fast that he can't accept it.It's just that the case of Concubine Xiao Shu is nothing more than that, how come so many big figures are involved, not to mention Wang Ping'an, even Changsun Wuji has been involved, and now the chief executive of the palace is giving him a sweetheart.What is going on with this case, how deep is this muddy water?

Li Yifu is a small person, he doesn't know any inside information, and he is not qualified to know, but suddenly entered the center of the storm, he is really at a loss, he doesn't know how to deal with it, he can only take one step at a time.

He didn't go directly to the Imperial Garden, but went to Ningxue Pavilion.Wang Pingan pretended to look around the scene in the cold palace, and was led by Shi Aiguo to see Concubine Xiao Shu's body.

Concubine Xiao Shu's body was not transported out of the palace, but was parked in the backyard of Ningxue Pavilion. Her case was not solved, so it was naturally impossible to transport her body out of the palace for burial, and she still had a prince's concubine. Feng, the emperor didn't explain it, so he could only stay in the cold palace.

Shi Aiguo opened the coffin himself, pointed to Concubine Xiao Shu inside, and said, "This case must be closed soon. The weather is hot now, and within a few days, this corpse will stink!"

Wang Pingan didn't go forward at all. A dead person is so beautiful, and it's not like he didn't know how he died. He went to see it at this time, so he wasn't afraid of having nightmares at night.

With a wave of his hand, Wang Ping'an said: "Brother Li, go and have a look, and look carefully, don't reveal any details."

Li Yifu agreed, walked to the coffin, looked inside, and saw Concubine Xiao Shu in the coffin, her body had changed color, and there was a faint smell coming out.

With just one glance, Li Yifu understood that Concubine Xiao Shu was strangled to death, and the scars on her neck were very obvious, it could be seen that she was strangled by a thin rope.He knew how the case would end, the big shots had already arranged it, and now it was just a formality, so there was no need to take it seriously.

He also pretended to look at it for a while, and then said: "Master Xiang, this villain has seen clearly that Concubine Shu was indeed strangled to death, there is no doubt about it."

Wang Ping'an hummed, and said: "Let's do it this way, put the lid on, and let's go out!" As he spoke, he left the room first, not waiting for a moment, and Shi Aiguo followed.

Li Yifu put the lid on the coffin and sighed in his heart. He had seen Concubine Xiao Shu from a distance during the celebration before. At that time, he only thought that this empress was beautiful and she was a rare beauty. Compared with her, his concubine, It was like mud.But I didn't expect that such a beautiful woman didn't die well, and I don't know who strangled her to death!
Suddenly, Li Yifu thought: "Could it be that the empress sent someone to kill her? Oh, it is very possible, it is inevitable! Just imagine, if it is not related to the empress, how could this case involve so many people?" When the big man comes, he is the prime minister and the chief executive!"

He was of low status, and he didn't have Di Renjie's good mind, so he couldn't figure out what was going on, so he could only guess wildly based on his appearance.

The three of them left Ningxue Pavilion and stood outside waiting.Wang Ping'an and Shi Aiguo didn't speak, so Li Yifu could only keep silent.After a while, a person walked quickly from a distance, who looked like the same eunuch leader, but with a baby face.

Shi Aiguo said: "Mi Xiaomiao is here, it is estimated that things are almost done."

Seeing them, Mi Xiaomiao approached quickly, and said, "Uncle Shi, Prime Minister Wang. That man is already drunk by me and lying in his room. Who do you want to send to handle the matter?" He asked, But his eyes turned to Li Yifu.

The matter has been arranged long ago, as long as it is done step by step, it will be done, but Mi Xiaomiao was not in the Guanyun Palace just now, so I don't know who to send, but there is only an idler from Li Yifu here, neither he nor It couldn't be anyone else.

Shi Aiguo pointed at Li Yifu, and said: "This is your new brother, and he is also the adopted son of my elder brother. You two will be called brothers in the future. Tell him about the matter."

Although Mi Xiaomiao may be an eunuch, he is also of high rank, and he is quite a bit higher than Li Yifu, he is an absolute superior.He hummed twice at Li Yifu, as if he had finished greeting.

Pointing to the way he came, Mi Xiaomiao said: "You follow this road, don't worry, there is only one road, you won't go for a detour, go straight ahead, it will take about a mile to walk in twists and turns. Land, at the end of the road, there is a high wall, if you go along the wall, there is a small door, that is the side door of the imperial garden, you don’t go in, there is a small room next to the door, after you go in, you will see a drinker inside. The guy who had too much wine is sleeping on the table, you know what to do with the rest, right?"

Mi Xiaomiao looked Li Yifu up and down, thinking: "This man's body doesn't look very strong, didn't he say that Wang Ping'an's bodyguards can do this job, why is it replaced by him, can he do it?"

Li Yifu was taken aback, and asked: "What should I do?" He felt bad in his heart, his scalp felt hard, wouldn't it be that he wanted to kill someone to silence him?

Wang Pingan stretched out his hand, patted Li Yifu's shoulder heavily, and said, "This is the trust that the officers have placed in you! Ah, you must do it carefully, and don't disappoint the expectations of the officers!"

Li Yifu's hair stood on end, and he stammered: "What are you looking forward to?" Could it be that he really wanted to kill someone to silence him.

Wang Ping'an stretched out his palm, shook his fingers, and said, "Fifth-rank official, you are at the top of the fifth rank. Think about it, how many people can't make it to this position in their entire lives!"

What Shi Aiguo said was not so cryptic, he directly stated, "Didn't you just look at Xiao's corpse, just do it like that... Oh, there is a difference, don't put He strangled him to death. Anyway, he was drunk and couldn’t struggle. You can just tie a harness to the beam and send his head in. The beam in the room is not high, but the chair is not low. Very It's easy to do, just put in a little effort!"

Li Yifu almost fainted, he said: "This, my nephew has no strength, I can't hold it... Also, my nephew is a foreign official, how can he walk in the palace, the imperial garden is within the scope of the harem..."

Mi Xiaomiao pushed him and said, "Don't worry, there will be no one there during this time, and you won't run into anyone!"

Li Yifu was terrified, it seems that it is not easy to be an eunuch's adoptive son, but it is really a desperate thing, just silence, who can't do it?Why do you have to go by yourself?

Wang Pingan smiled and said: "It's okay, we're here, waiting for your good news. Don't worry, nothing will happen!"

Li Yifu was cornered, just like Cao Cao who entered Huarong Road, he could only move forward and could not retreat.Cao Cao is the grandson of the eunuch, and he is the son of the eunuch. Although there is a difference of hundreds of years, they are really a pair of difficult brothers!
There was really no other way, so Li Yifu had no choice but to walk forward slowly along the path, and heard Shi Aiguo shout from behind: "Hurry up, don't make us wait here for a long time."

Li Yifu had no choice but to speed up and trot, the more he ran, the more frightened he became, his legs were weak, and he was about to fall to the ground at any time.

Wang Pingan asked in a low voice: "Is there really nothing wrong?"

"It's all arranged, no one will go there throughout the day today!" Shi Aiguo said with a cold smile.

After turning a corner, Li Yifu slowed down, almost rubbing his feet, and moved towards the imperial garden, but no matter how slow he walked, he would eventually reach the end.In the distance, he saw the house.

After some difficulty, he walked up to the house, hesitating at the door, whether to go in, he had never killed anyone before, and now he was more afraid than the little eunuch who was going to be killed inside.

Suddenly, on the other side of the courtyard wall, among the bushes, a man stumbled out, running desperately towards here!
Li Yifu was taken aback, no way, it turned out to be a trap, someone arrested me as soon as I arrived here?He looked at the people coming and going, but lightly exclaimed!
The person who ran over was not the eunuch or guard who arrested him, but a woman with a bald head and a nun!
