Chapter 32
Hearing what Zuo Ming said, Jiang Nian's face was still as calm as the sea, but the feeling in his heart was indescribable.

He and An Chen have been fighting from the previous life to the present, but they still can't see through this person.

He has the memory of his previous life, and he knows that An Chen must be playing tricks on him in order to provoke the relationship between himself and Ning Yuezhao.

But in the eyes of outsiders, every time something happens in the palace, An Chen is innocently victimized and implicated.

Before Zuo Ming told him the answer, he had guessed that the result must have nothing to do with An Chen.

"Jiang Zhuangyuan?" Zuo Ming kept silent for a long time, and couldn't help calling him.

Jiang Nian came back to his senses, and smiled at him, "Didn't Commander Zuo check everything out? Is there anything else you need to discuss with Jiang Nian?"

The corners of Zuo Ming's eyes twitched, and his heart was a little annoyed. Jiang Nian obviously wanted to find out what happened this time, and he had already handed him the ladder. He was still holding Joe, so he had to beg him to climb it.

But there is no way, who told me to ask others?
Zuo Ming had no choice but to continue, "Wei Ji does not admit that he was the one who stole the rosin and set fire to it, but the key to the pharmacy never left him."

Jiang Nian thought for a while and said, "This Wei Ji seems to be An Chen's upper peak?"

Zuo Mingdao: "That's right. Wei Ji was responsible for An Chen's transfer to the medical department before. Wei Ji had always been a harsh person in the Imperial Hospital. He liked to bully his subordinates the most. Many imperial doctors were miserable. Recently, he has focused on The person targeted is An Chen."

Jiang Nian sometimes doubts which one is the reborn, himself or An Chen. On the surface, he is the victim, but in fact, almost all those who target him end well, as if he is the darling of heaven.

"Since Wei Ji insists that he is innocent, does he have evidence to prove his innocence?" Jiang Nian asked, "It stands to reason that there are very few people who don't go home in the middle of the night and stay in the Imperial Hospital."

Zuo Ming replied: "This Wei Ji is an old bachelor. He usually stays in the Imperial Hospital. He is in charge of the night duty of the pharmacy and rarely goes home."

Jiang Nian smiled, and the corners of his eyes and brows were a little cold, "So, it seems that the evidence is solid?"

"Not necessarily." Zuo Ming said a suspicious point, "According to Wei Ji, when he was on duty at night, he always felt that nothing would happen, and almost fell asleep. But on the night when the incident happened, he slept very deeply. He would wake up if there was any movement, and he didn't even know when the fire started, but someone came and woke him up."

Jiang Nian shook his head, "This is just his one-sided opinion. It can't be such a coincidence. He was also drugged, right?"

Zuo Ming showed a somewhat strange expression, "I've been thinking today, what if it's really such a coincidence?"

Jiang Nian was startled, but his face remained calm, "Why did Commander Zuo say that?"

Zuo Ming compiled the confession from the interrogation in the past few days, handed it to Jiang Nian, and said in a deep voice: "If there is really a person, first drug Linzhou to make him unconscious, and then learn from Wei Ji Unknowingly stole rosin and returned to Dianzang Pavilion to set fire?"

There was some leeway in his words, but Jiang Nian had already heard what he meant.

Jiang Nian flipped through the confessions casually, and said, "If Commander Zuo's assumption is true, combined with the confessions of Linzhou and Wei Ji, the person who set the fire should be someone else."

Zuo Ming nodded and continued, "The place where the Dianzang Pavilion fire started was the open space in the middle hall, and the center was the most serious, spreading to both sides. After the fire started, looking in from the outside, it gave people the feeling that the fire was soaring into the sky , In fact, when we first discovered it, the fire might not have been that big.”

Jiang Nian chuckled when he heard this, motioning for him to continue talking.

"I also found traces of rosin on the bookshelves. When Doctor An was rescued, the fire just spread to the bookshelves. The books are flammable, and the Dianzang Pavilion instantly became a sea of ​​​​flames, and there was no way to recover." Said Later, Zuo Ming felt a little regretful.

The matter of rebuilding the Pharmacopoeia has been planned for many years, and it was originally a matter for the well-being of the people. Now that there is a fire, I don’t know how many people’s efforts have been wasted.

At this point, Jiang Nian couldn't laugh anymore. He pursed his lips slightly, and said in a cold voice, "The arsonist really had a good plan. He calculated the time, place, and people just right."

"The previous case of Lu Jiansheng was stuck in the Dali Temple."

Zuo Ming suddenly changed the subject and brought up another big event.

Elder Jiang raised his eyebrows slightly, "Why?"

The Forbidden Army had already investigated this case almost before. It stands to reason that the joint trial of the three divisions was just a formality, but it turned out to be a side issue.

Although he didn't know why Zuo Ming suddenly changed the subject, Jiang Nian knew that he must have intentions, so he continued to listen patiently.

Zuo Ming explained to him: "Lu Jiansheng categorically denied that he had bribed the court lady Axiang to destroy the auspicious omen, and the people in Dali Temple are trying their best to attack those around him."

Jiang Nian was a little curious: "I heard that the current Dali Siqing is also a ruthless character. After a few rounds of torture, even the dead will speak. Why can't you deal with a Lu Jiansheng?"

Zuo Ming sneered, "This treason is a felony crime of ransacking one's family and destroying one's family. If I were Lu Jiansheng, I would not mention it."

Not to mention the death of one person, but to say that the whole family will be lost.

According to the criminal law of Daxing, if one can endure the seven major tortures and still plead not guilty, and there is no other evidence to support it, he should not be convicted.

After a pause, Zuo Ming said again: "The last punishment is yet to be imposed. I met Dali Siqing in the morning, and I got a few big bubbles on my mouth. I should also be anxious about this matter to get angry."

In the case of Lu Jiansheng, based on the existing evidence, there seems to be no problem on the surface, but in fact there are still many flaws.In the past few days, people in the Xu Party have been ready to move. If the seventh punishment continues, Lu Jiansheng still refuses to admit it. These people are afraid that they will make a big fuss.

Jiang Nian frowned slightly, "If you want to speak alone, you don't necessarily have to be severely punished. It's really strange to think that it can make the minister of Dali Temple so anxious."

"At Dali Temple, they should start with other members of the Lu family, but I don't know if other people's mouths will be so hard."

Jiang Nian looked serious. After all, Lu Jiansheng is the head of the family, and he would take the rise and fall of the family as his own responsibility, but others may not.Moreover, the Lu family is also a famous family with a large population. As long as a breakthrough is found and combined with the previous physical evidence, the Lu family will have no chance of turning over.

Jiang Nian looked at Zuo Ming puzzled, "Why are you telling me this?"

Zuo Ming hesitated for a moment, and said in a low voice: "Jiang Zhuangyuan, don't you think there is some connection between these two things?"

Jiang Nian understood why Zuo Ming suddenly changed the subject.It's hard to say about Bing Dilian, but the Dianzang Pavilion's incident must have something to do with An Chen.

"The two incidents are all aimed at you, the future son-in-law." Zuo Ming finally explained the problem, "And every time Imperial Physician An appeared, don't you find it strange?"

Jiang Nian smiled, and his star-like eyes were clouded with mist for an instant, "Commander Zuo, you were picked up by the Princess herself. If you doubt Doctor An so much, aren't you afraid that Her Royal Highness will punish you if she finds out?"

At this point in the matter, the matter of Ning Yuezhao and An Chen has long been an open secret in the palace.

Zuo Ming said with a serious face: "I can't control the private affairs of Your Highness the Princess. My Forbidden Army Governor's Mansion is only loyal to the Ning family. Anything that may harm the Ning family must be guarded against."

"He is just a little imperial doctor. He came from a humble background. He has no father, no mother, and five relatives. He has no foundation in the court. How can he frame the Lu family for rebellion?"

Even if Jiang Nian had a new life, he didn't think of An Chen as endangering the royal family. He thought that An Chen only wanted his royal husband's position at most.

It is a bit far-fetched to say that the arson of the Dianzang Pavilion was done by An Chen.But if it was really planned by An Chen, there must be unknown forces behind him.

Thinking about it carefully, Zuo Ming's words were not unreasonable, and An Chen really had to guard against it.

Zuo Ming said: "That's why I came to you. I want to join hands with you to find out what's going on."

Jiang Nian pondered for a while, then raised his head to look at Zuo Ming, the mist in his eyes cleared, and he showed a faint smile, "Okay."

In the afternoon of the same day, Zuo Ming reported the results of the investigation to the princess.

When Ning Yuezhao heard that the suspect in the arson turned out to be Wei Ji who had bullied An Chen, she was so angry that she shattered the cup in her hand, "This bastard!"

Zuo Ming still looked serious, "Your Highness, there are still doubts about this matter."

Ning Yuezhao snorted coldly and said, "The evidence is complete, how can he be allowed to argue, send it to Dali Temple!"

Zuo Ming paused, and finally said: "Your Highness, the previous case of Lu Jiansheng also has complete evidence, but Dali Temple has already undergone six severe punishments, and he still refuses to admit it."

After finishing speaking, he handed Ning Yuezhao the memorial detailing his and Jiang Nian's conjectures.Zuo Ming knew that Jiang Nian was in an awkward position on this matter, so he only used his own name on the paper.

Hearing this, Ning Yuezhao was also taken aback. She took the memorial, but she was not in a hurry to read it, "The evidence is solid, and if he denies it, he can't escape the responsibility."

Zuo Ming said bluntly: "Your Highness, I feel that this matter is suspicious. If you want to buy someone, how can you use a bank note with your own seal? Besides, bank notes have always been circulated between banks and depositors, so it may not be impossible for others to get them." A bank note with the seal of the Lu family."

Ning Yuezhao pondered for a while and said, "I know about it, and I will deliver an order later, not to torture the Lu family for the time being, and re-investigate this case."

Zuo Ming nodded in agreement, cupped his hands and said, "Your Highness is wise!"

At this moment, a person from the hospital came to see him.

Seeing this, Zuo Ming resigned first, and Ning Yue allowed that person to see him.

This person was sent by Goldman Sachs. After saluting, he said, "His Royal Highness, because of the hot weather recently, Doctor An's wound has not healed for a long time. If this continues, there may be a risk of festering."

Ning Yuezhao thought of An Chen's wound wrapped in layers of white cloth, and her heart seemed to be pulled by something.

Normally at this time, she and the empress should have gone to the palace to escape the summer heat, but now the empress is ill and it is not suitable to move, so this matter has been shelved.

The waterside pavilion in the palace is also cool. In the past, it would be fine to let An Chen live in it, but now she is engaged to Jiang Nian...

Ning Yuezhao struggled for a while, and then ordered: "Pass my order, ask the Ministry of Internal Affairs to send some ice cubes to the Tai Hospital."

"Yes." The man happily accepted the order and left.

Ning Yuezhao put the booklet on the table first, and was about to call someone to prepare a car and go to the Imperial Hospital in person, but saw someone from the Dragon Palace.

The man knelt down panting and said: "Your Highness, it's not good, Your Majesty has vomited blood again, and is unconscious now!"
