Chapter 67 You are tired, go catch up on sleep.
In the imperial study room, the emperor was limping and limping, supported by King Yuanning, sitting behind the imperial book case.
The murder case involved in Lexitang is really the tip of the iceberg compared to what the prince verified last night.
King Yuanning handed Bai Bai a list, to be precise, a list of transactions.
The time, object and money and goods information of the transaction are clearly recorded.Bai Bai saw that the names on the list had already been annotated by the lord. Although the number of people was not too large, the contents of the annotated chills made Bai Bai's heart cold. senior officials.
Gao Li, the military servant who wanted to invite Xia Sixing to drink tea but was rejected, was on the list.
Not only that, but his father Gao Jing, the guardian of the Shangdu, was also among them.
As for the goods traded...
The prince took out a pill from his girdle and handed it to Bai Tian.
The thing was only half the size of a fingernail, and it didn't look much different from the elixir that Shang Yuyan had offered. The black pill body looked closely at the light, and the golden light of the stars was faintly quenched.
When it came to medicine, Bai Tian didn't understand it at all, and looked at the prince blankly, Yuanning Wang directly announced: "This should be Mrs. Zaifu, who is tempered with sage wormwood and cold flowers, and the medicinal effect is better than that of Shang Yuyan." The dedication is strong, as long as you drink it, you will be addicted."
Hearing this, Bai Zhou frowned and asked, "She was silenced because she wanted to break up with Wen Xu?"
The prince lowered his eyes, smoothed his thoughts, pondered for a while before saying: "It's just my guess."
Miss Zaifu didn't know at the beginning that Aiyucao sagetail and Hanhua Quen were so powerful, and the other two girls probably died suddenly after taking an inaccurate dose of elixir.
It is precisely because of this that the girl suddenly realized that she was committing crimes and broke with Wen Xu, but was brutally killed.
This also shows that in Lexi Hall, there is obviously a dragon lake, but the murderer dare not throw his body into the lake.Because he wasn't sure what would happen to the ferocious beasts in the lake that ate the remaining medicinal corpses.
They retain a trace of fear and awe of the unknown, which makes things unraveled.
Hearing this, regardless of what happened to the girls, the murderer who is at large must be found out as soon as possible.
What's more, Le Xitang's shady activities have been confirmed, pornography, gambling and drugs, only gambling is gone.
But Dayao is an ancient system after all, brothels still exist, and the ancients did not realize the horror of addiction. Maybe even some people interpret the effect of hallucinogenic drugs that disturb the mind as attainment of immortality.
Only during the day will he understand that if Lexitang grows bigger, it will be a huge threat to the people of Dayao's Sheji.
Bai Tian didn't believe it, this was a plan that Wen Xu could make alone, and the forces behind him could be punished.
Thinking of this, Bai Zhou asked Wang Yuanning, "Is it extremely difficult to obtain medicines such as Hanhuacui?"
The prince understood that he wanted to trace the source of it, and sighed: "It's not too difficult to get the right method, it's just that this herbal medicine is unorthodox, and not many people care about it."
Well, it seems that this road is not a shortcut.
At this time, Chen Xingning and Chu Yanchuan asked for an audience.
Bai Tian was trying to find him, the prince is good at handling things, but he can't play with a sheep for his life.
In the past few days, Bai Tian always met with Chen Xingning. On the other hand, Chu Yanchuan, who hadn't seen him for many days, felt that he had lost weight, and said with a smile, "You must not be busy these days, how did you lose weight?"
Chu Yanchuan smiled. He and the emperor have been friends since childhood, and the few people in front of him went to Lushui City together. Your Majesty Zhanhuan and his party didn't have their knives out of their sheaths, so bored, I met Brother Xingning a few days ago, and I heard that there was a case, so I wanted to help."
After he said this, Bai Tian's face gradually faded, and his eyes turned to Chen Xingning, only looking at him quietly.
Chen Xingning's scalp exploded in an instant. The emperor has always trusted him, which made him somewhat disregard the emperor as the emperor.
He not only informed the irrelevant officials of the details of the case, but also asked him to help... If it is really pursued, demotion and punishment will be light.
He immediately knelt down and said: "Your Majesty forgive me, I know my mistake, I should not reveal the case."
In fact, in his bones, Bai Bai trusted the people in front of him more. When he transmigrated into the book, the ones he could gather around were naturally those with simple backgrounds and upright personalities.
It's just that he blamed Chen Xingning for making his own way, and he should be beaten up—stand at different levels of rank, and don't overdo things, otherwise one day he will be careless and do bad things.
Seeing that Chu Yanchuan also knelt down, the two bowed their heads in silence, before saying in the daytime: "Forget it, I trust you, but I don't trust the people around you." As he spoke, he gave a brief statement about the imitators who have not been caught yet— He was able to imitate such a common crime scene, so someone must have revealed the crime scene to him intentionally or unintentionally.
It's just that there are too many people who have handled this case now, and it is impossible to check.
Seeing that the two of them were still kneeling on the ground after listening to their complete statement of the case, but their expressions were already showing horror, Bai Tian then softened his voice and said, "Calm down, Xing Ning, please come to see me, what's the matter?"
Chen Xingning breathed a sigh of relief, and said, "Wen Xu, I invite you to the banquet," he said, and took out a very gorgeous post from his arms, "This is an invitation."
Bai Zhou picked it up and looked at it, and asked: "The master of Bu Feng Shui Bureau, has he contacted?"
Chen Xingning replied: "That should be the case." After a pause, Chen Xingning said again, "I have followed Wen Xu these days, and I have recorded the secretive guests who have a close personal relationship with Wen Xu in Lexi Hall. "Speaking, he took out a list.
Bai Tian raised his eyebrows, and took it with some approval, thinking that Chen Xingning really had the talent to do these things.
Looking down at the list, it almost coincides with the list that Wang Ye inspected, except that Li Guanxiao, Minister of the Ministry of Punishment, and Cen Lian, Minister of the Ministry of War, were added.
The official positions of these two people are not easily accessible by Wen Xu's rank, and there must be a middleman.
Moreover, these two have never been in contact with the addictive pill...
Are you one of your own?
Bai Zhou rubbed the edge of the paper thoughtfully, and asked, "Young Master of Ma Xun's family, how did you find out?"
Chu Yanchuan stepped forward to salute, and took over the conversation.
Ma Xun's son, named Ma Chengyang, is indeed secretly a land merchant. As a speech officer, Ma Xun was humiliated by the emperor because of his outspoken admonitions. Got a lot of sympathy votes.
In addition, he is low-key and cautious in doing things, and in just a few years, he has quickly accumulated a rather rich family background.
As the farce of the year was forgotten and Ma Xun gradually faded out of the royal family's vision and memory, Ma Chengyang became more and more daring.
But people's tails that have been raised are all mines that are planted for future accidents.
It is true that people are divided into groups, and it is true that doing things during the day is a bit of a slant. As the emperor, he behaves like this, and the people around him are similar.
Chu Yanchuan went to investigate Ma Chengyang's background, wanting to know how he bought the land deed of the former royal residence, which had been firmly nailed to the household department, and turned it into a private residence.
The initial investigation was indeed the same as Chen Xingning's at the beginning, and his nose was ashamed.The Household Department pushed all the reasons on the former Household Department Minister who had been beheaded and ransacked his house.
Chu Yanchuan did the opposite, making Ma Chengyang mistakenly think that there was a thief in the house, and then watched secretly, and found the secret compartment where he kept his valuables.
It was discovered that he had a long relationship with King Rui who was bitten to death by a snake.
It is precisely because of the help of the prince that he was able to buy the house of the former prince from the Ministry of Households.
Hearing this, Bai Tian was not unexpected, after all Ma Xun was a guest of King Rui before he became an official.
There are already traces of this matter.
Then, Chu Yanchuan's words turned Bai Zhou's heart upside down.
King Rui, I wrote such a paragraph in the letter, to the effect that Bai Jing visited Zhanhuan at the age of five, and something was wrong. King Rui had already found out the whereabouts of the little prince Zhanhuan. It was related to Dayao's national destiny and his personal future. Yizhao went to the capital in person.
Unexpectedly, when they arrived in the capital, the imperial edict was destroyed, and the prince also died here in Shekou.
Occupying the ring again...
As a result, Bai Tian was somewhat confused about King Rui's position.Is it egoism, or is it really caring for the community?
Thinking of this, Bai Zhou became angry again - some things, knowingly related to a certain person, but he just couldn't handle him.He wished he could arrest and torture Peng Qi, who had escaped from death and was now in a mess, and ask him who ordered him.
Thinking about it again, whether it is the Dixiancaowu from the water transport, or the sagebrush grass, or the cold flower quenching, Peng Qi lingers in these addictive drugs that make people lose their minds, and they are always addicted to them. I want to infiltrate these things into the officials and even the palace of the Yao Kingdom.
Unpredictable intentions can be seen.
The emperor lost his temper just now, but now he is silent, and the three people in the room are also silent.
King Yuanning looked at the daytime, his anger was about to hit his head again, and his ears and eyes were about to emit blue smoke, so he stepped forward to talk to him and asked, "Wen Xu, when do you invite us to go?"
Bai Tian didn't even think about it, and replied casually: "Five days later," he got up and said to Chen Xingning and Chu Yanchuan, "Check carefully all the medicine shops in the capital that sell sage sage. It has an intersection with Lexitang."
After saying this, he got up and left.
It's just that he was suing all over his head, forgetting the injury on his foot, the weight of his body suddenly pressed on the wound, and the sole of the foot felt a sharp pain.
But I don't know if his mind is really disturbed, or if he still has to hold it up in front of Chen and Chu, his figure froze slightly, and he said: "I'm not feeling well today, let's go away first." Gu Zi walked around to the back door of the imperial study and left.
Boog followed closely.
King Yuanning saw it, he didn't step down from his stage in public, he bowed his hands to the two, and chased after them.
Don't look at the fact that he hurt his feet during the day, he walked quite fast.
When the prince chased him out, Bai Tian was already sitting under the corridor.
Bugo next to him looked like he wanted to say something but didn't dare to say it. Hearing the sound of footsteps behind him, he knew that the savior had come.
King Yuan Ning waved to Bu Ge, Bu Ge was grateful, retreated very wisely, and waited on him from a distance.
The prince walked up to Bai Tian, squatted down slowly, looked up at his face, and asked softly: "Does it hurt?"
Bai Zhou frowned, and said: "It's okay, why are you so fragile, take pictures of me like a girl..." Before he finished speaking, he suddenly stopped.
From such an angle, it is clearly visible that the prince's usually radiant eyes are bloodshot.
I feel tired, so why isn't he tired?
A gust of wind blows, causing the prince to squint his eyes.Bai Tian couldn't help stretching out his hand to brush his eyelashes, brushing the hair hanging in front of his eyes, and said: "You are tired, go catch up on sleep."

Bai Tian: I don't think you're tired yet, so shall we go for a walk in the Ministry of Criminal Justice?
Jian Lanyuan: emmmmm... what do I like?
