5,05 Major cases(2/2)
Most officials have three wives and four concubines. But most of them do not mean that all of them are very single-minded. The situation of single-mindedness varies. There are people like Mr. Bao and the Eighth Prince who are in love with their wives and are willing to be single-minded. There are also some like the Prince Consort.
Like the son-in-law of Quan Gui's family, he was forced to be single-minded and dare not mess around. Cao Kui has always been classified into the category of people such as Lord Bao and the Eight Kings. He lost his wife before he was thirty, and has been thinking about it ever since.
His wife became crazy and never saw him move her heart again.
What Li Yue said about Cao Kui's situation was as if Lord Bao suddenly did something that Master Pang would do... very abnormal.
"But what does this have to do with the case?" Zhao Pu was puzzled.
Li Yue said: "Ziying just said that the corpse found by your miracle doctor had a coral-encrusted ring on his hand."
Zhao Pu looks at the purple shadow.
Ziying nodded. Pang Yu had just described the ring to him in detail. The young Marquis knew it very well. He said that this coral-encrusted ring was priceless, and it was definitely not an ordinary thing. Maybe the body could be traced through the ring.
identity of.
Li Yue hesitated for a moment, "When the emperor heard that Cao Kui was getting married, he gave him a ring with coral beads. Not long ago. I had just returned to the palace and was drinking tea with the emperor in the garden. Cao Kui happened to
Come and ask for leave."
Zhao Pu frowned.
"Do you think...it's such a coincidence?" Li Yue asked.
Zhao Pu looked at He Yihang, who shook his head, "Coral beaded rings are not common. When will Captain Cao get married?"
Li Yue: "It must have been yesterday. Cao Kui didn't invite any officials from the court, only some relatives and friends."
Zhao Pu was also more attentive and asked Li Yue seriously, "Third brother, do you have a good personal relationship with Captain Cao?"
Li Yue thought for a while, "It's definitely not bad anyway, but Cao Kui is a very upright person, a bit reclusive of others, and he is not too friendly with anyone, but he is not an enemy."
Zhao Pu smiled slightly and said, "Most people who can become high officials are like this, right?"
Li Yue patted him on the shoulder, "I work with Cao Kui every year for the martial arts test. These are the busiest days of the year for him, so it's strange to choose to get married at this time! Cao Kui is not unreliable.
people."
Zhao Pu nodded and told him not to worry too much and to go to Yuxin Mountain for a visit.
Behind the two of them, He Yihang and Long Qiaoguang looked at each other. They also knew the seriousness of this matter - Cao Kui was a high-ranking official in the dynasty. If the person who died was really his recent wife, it would be no small case!
In addition, this time also made the two of them a little confused. Didn't they get married yesterday? They were dressed in wedding clothes, indicating that there must have been no bridal chamber last night... I didn't see Cao Kui going to Kaifeng Mansion today to report that his wife was missing.
what's going on?
The more He Yihang thought about it, the more he felt something was wrong, but something happened to Cao Kui, and Zhao Pu from the front obviously wanted to go too, so he turned around and winked at Lao He.
He Yihang waved to Long Qiaoguang, and the two of them left the crowd and rushed to the Taiwei's Mansion to have a look.
…
When Zhao Pu and the others arrived at the Yuxin Mountain Valley, a circle of people had already gathered in front of the small cave entrance.
Xiao Liangzi saw Xiao Sizi sitting on a rock chatting with the Silver Demon King at a glance, and rushed over.
Yin Hou and Tianzun heard Xiao Liangzi telling Xiao Sizi about what happened in the military field. The two elders silently glanced at the Silver Demon King - Is it related to the dragon pattern scroll you hid before?
The demon king raised his face and looked at the sky, and said something unclear, "It's going to snow heavily."
At the entrance of the cave ahead, Zhan Zhao, Bai Yutang and Lin Yehuo had just arrived, and the three of them were all looking at the turtle.
Gongsun & Sun just listened to the shadow guard talking about people turning into salt in the martial arts training field. He was not calm at all, "How can people turn into salt?! It's a lie! It must be a lie!"
As soon as Zhao Pu came forward, Gongsun saw him, grabbed him and asked, "Did you see it? Did you see people turn into salt with your own eyes?"
Zhao Pu shrugged. He was about to say that he didn't see it, but many people did...
At this time, the sound of a bell suddenly came from the distance.
Everyone was stunned.
Li Yue was originally worried, but when he saw that the fourth son was feeling better, he was greeting the Silver Demon King and wanted to have a few words, but when he heard the sound of the bell, he also froze.
Bai Yutang asked Zhan Zhao, "This bell..."
"It's the bell in the palace. The emperor is summoning all the civil and military officials." Lu Lin said, "It's been a long time since the bell has been rung. Has something big happened..."
Before he finished speaking, Long Qiaoguang suddenly came back, and the right general ran in a hurry.
Zhao Pu had just asked him and He Yihang to go to the Taiwei Mansion, and they were back so soon? And looking at Long Qiaoguang's expression, Zhao Pu knew something was wrong!
Sure enough, General You ran up to them and said to Zhao Pu and Zhan Zhao, "Something big has happened. The whole family of Taiwei Cao Kui has been killed."
