The reborn prince can't be pushed down

Chapter 81 Miao Jiang Gu Poison
In the early morning of this day, Yan Zhenglang walked out of the queue of civil servants, held an ivory wat, and said calmly: "Your Majesty, a few days ago, my minister accepted His Majesty's permission to re-investigate the old case of the Lu family, and now the results have been obtained!"

It was only at this moment that the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty discovered that the academician of the Imperial Academy, whom they had always thought weak and incompetent, had such a strong and calm side, which was really eye-opening.

"Let's talk." Jiang Nian looked a little tired, Ning Yuezhao had another headache last night, tossing and tossing for half a night.It wasn't until Ning Yuezhao went to court that he fell asleep from the pain, and Jiang Nianqiang, who hadn't slept all night, braced himself to preside over the morning court.

"Back then, the affairs of the Lu family started when Lu Jiansheng doted on his concubine and killed his wife, but according to what I learned from the former servants of the Lu family, the Lu family's aunt Liu was cruel by nature, because she had nothing to do, so she didn't allow concubines to conceive. If the concubine, Mrs. Song, had not given birth to a son, and Lu Jiansheng had seized part of the power of the Liu family, the concubine's mother and son would not have lived long."

After speaking, Yan Zhenglang ordered someone to present a stack of fingerprinted statements.

After Jiang Nian had read it, he pressed the button to signal Yan Zhenglang to continue.

Before Yan Zhenglang could speak in the future, someone questioned: "Yan Shangshu, it is well known that the Lu family has already been ransacked and beheaded. Where did your old servant's confession come from?"

"The Lu family has a big business, so what's so strange about the servant selling it and then buying it?" Yan Zhenglang said calmly, "I have obtained the old servant's contract of sale, and there is a record of buying and selling on it. Anyone who has doubts can come here. Find the officer."

As soon as he said this, the voice of doubt was temporarily suppressed.

Yan Zhenglang continued: "Wei Chen found the account books of the Lu family in the past. Because the Lu family's mistress was strict, every income and expenditure was recorded in detail. But Wei Chen searched through the account books and found that the only Lu family that had been out during that time A 500 tael bank note was paid for the Lu family’s visits to Bojitang for doctor’s appointments last year. Wei Chen also checked the bank where the Lu family’s money was kept, and it was true that the Lu family only exchanged a 500 tael silver note this year. .”

Because bank notes are not easy to keep and are easily damaged, most people will not exchange a lot at once, especially for such a large denomination of 500 taels.

After Yan Zhenglang finished speaking, he ordered someone to present the Lu family's account books and the bank's record book, which was exactly as he said.

Those courtiers who had doubts also passed on these two things.

Jiang Qingnian sighed: "Yan Shangshu, have you ever gone to Boji Hall to check whether they have accepted the bank note?"

Yan Zhenglang waved his hand, motioning for another account book to be presented.Said: "I checked, the account book on the face of Boji Hall says that it received 500 taels of cash."

All the officials were in an uproar, and someone immediately asked: "Didn't Yan Shangshu say that the only 500 taels of silver note from the Lu family was given to Bojitang? Now why does he write about receiving cash?"

Yan Zhenglang said sternly: "We Chen also thought so at the beginning, but after carefully checking the entire account book, Wei Chen found that the cash transactions in this account were not as much as 500 taels at all. Wei Chen ordered people to arrest the doctor on the spot. All the shopkeepers came to interrogate, and the shopkeeper admitted that he had never seen the 500 taels of silver notes from the Lu family, and as for the cash receipt of [-] taels, it was the intention of the big boss."

Jiang Nian picked up the account book of the hospital that he presented, looked through it, and found that it was indeed the case.

It is intriguing that a bank ticket that was supposed to enter the Boji Hall fell under the pillow of a maid from the Huanyi Bureau.

Jiang Nian asked, "Who is the boss of Boji Hall?"

This Boji Hall has always enjoyed a high reputation in the imperial capital. Everyone knows that there is an old doctor with excellent medical skills, but it seems that no one really cares about who his boss is.

Yan Zhenglang said: "It is the old doctor who is well-known in the imperial capital, Sai Bianque."

The name was chosen... Jiang Nian's lips curled up slightly, "Then where is Sai Bian Que now?"

Yan Zhenglang said with a little guilt: "When Wei Chen brought people to Boji Hall, he said that he was out for a doctor, but when our people rushed to that family, the family said that they had never seen Sai Bianque at all, presumably He heard the news and fled. The minister has already ordered people to guard the gate of the city, and hastened the search in the city."

Jiang Nian waved his hand to show that he knew.When he first saw that sneaky old man in Anchen Mansion, he felt that there was something wrong with him.He was also the one who pulled An Chen back from the ghost gate before, and this person seemed to have some subtle connection with Xu Zhi.

"Since it wasn't the Lu family who bought the maid from the Huanyi Bureau, the case of Bing Dilian's destruction should be re-investigated." Jiang Nian glanced at Zuo Ming, "Commander Zuo, this happened in the inner garden of the palace. The imperial army is in charge, but since the Bingdilian case is inseparable from the affairs of the Lu family, you and Yan Shangshu should be jointly responsible."

Zuo Ming came out and said, "Yes, I obey the order."

Yan Zhenglang cupped his hands and said, "Your Highness, regarding the case of Bing Dilian, I also have some clues to report."

"Oh?" Jiang Nian raised his eyebrows and looked at him, "Let's hear it."

This Yan Zhenglang was more capable than he imagined, he could find out so many things just by poking around about the Lu family's affairs.It's a pity that he had no time to think about it because of the empress's illness at that time, otherwise, maybe he wouldn't have to pay so many lives to the Lu family.

"At the beginning, the court lady Ah Xiang climbed and folded Bing Dilian, and drowned for no reason when the late emperor held a palace banquet, causing Bing Dilian to be damaged in front of civil and military officials, and the auspicious omen turned into a bad omen. The most puzzling thing is that she is obviously a lowly status. , why would she do such a thing?"

"Didn't there be a conclusion at the time? Someone bought the palace lady, and it was not fun for the late emperor. Although it can be proved that it was not done by the Lu family, it can also be bought by someone else. There is no doubt about it." Someone sneered and retorted.

"No, that maid is involuntary!" Yan Zhenglang said categorically, "When I searched Boji Hall, I found that there was an underground secret room in Sai Bian Que's room, and there were many large and small ceramic pots and porcelain bottles in it. , opened it and found all kinds of bugs inside, biting and devouring each other, it was extremely terrifying!"

As soon as Yan Zhenglang said this, Jiang Nian's pupils shrank slightly, his hands clenched in his sleeves, and his voice trembled uncontrollably, "You mean, Sai Bianque raised a lot of poisonous insects?"

Jiang Nian couldn't believe his ears. He had been searching for the clues of Gu poison for so long, and it came to him like this.

It's really hard to find a place to break through the iron shoes, and it takes no effort to get it!
Azhao, thanks to your generosity, you agreed to re-investigate the case of the Lu family, otherwise this poisonous poison will not be revealed until it is investigated!

Perhaps, everything is in the dark, and there is really a definite number.

"Weichen has been in the Hanlin Academy for ten years, and I have seen it in books. This kind of poisonous insects are placed in containers and let them devour each other. The last poisonous insect is Gu, the most poisonous in the world! This is Miao. Jiang's secret skills, and Sai Bianque spent several years in Yunzhou, which borders Miao Jiang, in his early years. I suspect that the palace maid's secretive behavior may be related to this poison!"

Yan Zhenglang's words were like throwing a boulder into the flat lake, and the hall was silent for a while.

Those present more or less knew that there was such a thing as Gu, but because the Miao people lived away from the world and the imperial capital was far away from the Miao border, few people would think of it.But when it comes to the terrifying degree of Gu poison, everyone knows more or less.

It is rumored that Miao people can use Gu poison to manipulate people's minds, making people called puppets, and they can also use Gu poison to make a person die quietly.

"The underground secret room, what's going on now? Where are the poisonous Gu?" Jiang Nian asked nervously.

Because the matter of Ning Yuezhao being poisoned by the poison was well concealed, Jiang Nian's gaffe fell into the eyes of the officials, and it was thought that the emperor's husband, who had never changed his face before the collapse of Mount Tai, was also afraid of the poison. The fear in everyone's hearts deepened.

"This is a serious matter, I dare not move it, but ordered people to strictly guard the secret room, and nothing in it was moved."

After hearing Yan Zhenglang's words, Jiang Nian felt relieved, "If the poison spreads, it will definitely cause turmoil in the capital. You have done a good job in this matter."

"This is the duty of a humble minister, I dare not take credit for it!" Yan Zhenglang said modestly.

Jiang Nian looked at Zuo Ming, "Commander Zuo, send a team of imperial guards to guard Boji Hall strictly, and re-investigate the previous Bing Dilian case!"

Zuo Ming couldn't wait for this. He was going crazy looking for clues related to Gu poison. Now that he has a clue, he can't wait to go to Boji Hall to check it out.So, he immediately said in a stern voice: "I obey the order!"

Jiang Nian glanced at the court, and solemnly said: "Since there are many doubts about the Lu family's treason case, and it also involves Miao Jiang poison, after all the truth is revealed, the Lu family will be treated fairly."

"Your Highness is holy!" All the officials bowed in unison.

After the early court retreated, Jiang Nian got on the phoenix chariot and went straight to the Dragon Hall.

"How is Your Majesty?" Jiang Nian asked about the situation of Ning Yuezhao, the servant in the palace, while taking meteor strides.

"Report to the emperor, Your Majesty has just woken up, and now Aunt Bitao is serving her medicine."

Stepping into the bedroom, a strong smell of medicine came to the nostrils.

"Auntie, I won't drink!" Ning Yuezhao's firm voice came from the inner room.

"Your Majesty, your dragon body is sick, how can you not drink medicine?" Bitao persuaded earnestly.

"Where is Jiang Nian? Has he not come to court yet?" Ning Yuezhao's voice was a little displeased, "If you don't explain the matter to me today, I won't drink this medicine!"

Jiang Nian couldn't help but took a deep breath, lifted the heavy curtains and entered the inner room.

"Azhao, I'm back."

Jiang Nian looked at her and said gently.

Ning Yuezhao leaned against the soft pillow, looked sideways at him, her slightly pursed lips revealed her displeasure.

Bitao was holding a medicine bowl, looking at Ning Yuezhao and Jiang Nian at a loss.

Fu Liao, who was also sleepless last night, was standing some distance away from the bed, watching his nose, nose, nose, and heart.

"See..."

A few people were about to salute, but Jiang Nian raised his hand to stop them, "Excuse me."

He walked to the bed, sat down along the edge of the bed, took the medicine bowl from Bitao, took a spoonful, blew it to the temperature, and handed it to Ning Yuezhao's lips, "Drink the medicine, I'll tell you You want to know."

His voice was not heavy, even with a little tenderness, but there was no doubt about the determination in it.

　Happy Mid-Autumn Festival everyone!
