Chapter 27 The golden cicada escapes from its shell
This matter is not over,
Although Yang Jian and Pei Shuying were both found and almost unscathed, the case of kidnapping the emperor's grandson still needs to be investigated.
This is related to the face of the old Yang family.
If this case cannot be solved, Yang Jian will never give up.
People from the Criminal Department, including Yang Lihua, also knew this very well. Even if the real culprit could not be found, they would still have to find a top culprit. In short, Yang Jian and Dugu must explain this case.
Three days later, except for the four maidservants of the Pei Mansion who died in the mountains due to cold, cold and hunger, everyone else returned safe and sound.
As the host of this spring outing, Yang Lihua ordered the people from the Ministry of Punishment to detain all the parties involved and interrogate them one by one, and sent guards from the Zhechong Prefecture into the mountains to surround several Taoist temples and nunneries located in Nanshan.
As for some bandits hiding in the mountains, they were all killed.
On this day, Yang Ming came to see his second son Yang Jian as usual, but the latter still refused to meet because of physical discomfort.
Around noon, someone came from the palace to convey Dugu Jialuo's orders and bring Yang Jian and Pei Shuying back to Daxing Palace for questioning.
When Yang Jian walked out of the tent, he happened to see his third brother Yang Ming talking to someone from the palace. He smiled bitterly and shook his head:
That evening,
Because Yang Guang had a close relationship with Buddhism, Lao Liu was recruited by Yang Guang as a guard. He served Yang Guang for twenty years and blocked many open and secret arrows for Yang Guang. Therefore, Lao Liu had a high status in the Jin Palace.
Not an unknown person? Yang Ming muttered: "During this spring outing, there are so many masters from all the major families, and there should be quite a few at the Grand Master level. It is definitely a powerful force that can overthrow you and the masters of the Pei family at the same time.
power."
My life and fortune are already tied to this case.
As for Yang Ming, he naturally went to ask Ma Laoliu for questioning.
Lao Liu nodded and said: "Sanlang is right, so it is impossible to find out the case by relying on these little guys from the Criminal Department."
What a talent.
He Zongbo, as if he had been granted amnesty, quickly winked at his entourage, and returned to Daxing in a carriage overnight.
Yang Chan had called Daxing and had not yet entered the palace to pay her respects to her grandparents, so she followed the second eldest child, Yang Jian.
Yang Jian named Xue Jun, the minister of punishment.
"Is it drug or magic?" In Yang Ming's opinion, it is not easy to defeat someone of Lao Liu's level.
As soon as the chief officer left, the people in the Criminal Department were like headless flies, and they didn't know where to start.
After Yang Ming learned the news, he couldn't even laugh or cry. It seemed that he had underestimated the Minister He.
He Zongbo, the minister's servant, accidentally fell down from the ridge and broke both legs. He was carried into the eldest princess's tent.
"Logically speaking, for such a major case, even His Highness the King of Hedong cannot meet the suspect at will,"
And here, the eldest princess Yang Lihua is not very cooperative. He can't move any of the pro-army soldiers of the Princess Mansion or the guards of the Zhechong Mansion. He can only rely on the hundreds of people from the Criminal Department. How can the case be investigated?
He Zongbo realized that he was currently in a very unfavorable situation.
What happened in the mountains? Yang Ming thought that Yang Jian would not dare to hide it from Dugu Hou. It seemed that he could only find an opportunity to ask his grandmother about this matter in the future.
Two days later, two big shots came to Daxing at the same time.
Yang Ming nodded.
As soon as the stove in the camp started cooking, an interesting thing happened.
Just by sending these two people here, you can tell that Yang Jian attaches great importance to this matter. He Zongbo's golden cicada escape can be regarded as completely keeping himself out of the matter.
When beating a dog, it depends on the owner. There are few guards in the Jin Dynasty who dare to offend. After all, Yang Guang is famous all over the world for protecting his shortcomings.
Yang Lihua said calmly: "It's just a child's curiosity. There is no need to stop it. After so many days, if the Ministry of Punishments can't find any clues, you can go to Daxing Palace to plead guilty."
Lao Liu was a rough man, tall and muscular, as if full of explosive power. He was exactly what Yang Ming's master Shi Wansui said, with tiger shoulders, python waist and mantis legs.
He Zongbo suddenly broke into a cold sweat. Did the eldest princess want him to take the blame?
I am only a fifth-grade person. If the sky falls, I shouldn’t be the one holding it up, right?
He Zongbo cursed in his heart. For such a big matter as the kidnapping of the emperor's grandson, the Ministry of Punishment only sent him, a fifth-grade minister minister, to investigate the case. It was obvious that he was going to take the blame. If he found out clearly, he would be rewarded. If he couldn't find out, he would be sent to the frontier.
All are light.
This case actually isn't too complicated to say the least, just peel it off and slowly investigate it. It's not too difficult for the Criminal Department, which solves cases all the time.
But for such a person, he speaks softly and softly, like a woman.
Yang Ming sighed: "I think Uncle He Zong from the Criminal Department is also a waste. How could the Second Saint send such a fool to investigate the case?"
"Sanlang is here?" After seeing Yang Ming, the bald sixth man shook his head in shame: "It's my fault for not taking good care of Erlang."
It's like you're eating in the group company cafeteria at noon, and the boss is sitting across from you with a bowl. Just being nervous will make you panic.
Yang Ming was more inclined to believe that the perpetrator was still in the camp. After all, Yang Xian had just disappeared, and Yang Lihua had sealed off the surrounding area at lightning speed, allowing only entry and no exit.
In the eldest princess's tent, He Zongbo, the minister of the criminal department, waited until Yang Ming left before speaking to Yang Lihua who was sitting on the throne.
"A humble minister has let down your kindness, and I have let down your kindness."
Dugu Jialuo named Yang Yue, the young minister of Dali Temple.
Can you think of such a way to escape?
When Yang Lihua saw this situation, she couldn't help laughing and said: "So, Minister He can't continue to investigate the case?"
Now that's good, the two fast guys couldn't wait to find a crack in the ground and get in.
The corner of Yang Lihua's mouth curled up, and she waved her hand as if to dismiss: "Let's go."
No matter how good you are, you can't just break out in the open, right?
Unlike others, Lao Liu's treatment was good, with an independent tent, a clean bed, and the ability to go out for some fresh air under the supervision of the Punishment Department's Kuaishou.
"Let's wait until we enter the account!" Yang Ming waved his hand and took the lead in entering the account.
As soon as these words came out, the two quick shooters from the Criminal Department standing next to them suddenly looked embarrassed.
But the key to the problem is that it involves the emperor's grandson, and Yang Jian and Dugu Jialuo have been keeping an eye on it.
Xu Jing calls Yang Ming Sanye, while the other party calls him Sanlang. It can be seen from just one title that Ma Laoliu has a much higher status than Xu Jing.
He Zongbo cried and lamented, the severe pain of his broken legs causing his face to become deformed.
Ma Laoliu wiped his bald head and said in a soft voice: "I am a Buddhist Vajra body. Ordinary magic techniques have no effect on me, not to mention drugs. Even I have been hooked. Who knows who does it?"
At least they are all great masters, and people at this level can never be unknown."
As the saying goes, a person cannot be judged by his appearance, but who would have thought that such a rough and tactless man could be a martial arts master as famous as the old Chen Hussar General Xiao Mohe.
"We'll talk about everything after I get back."
Ma Laoliu, whose surname was Buliugu, was from Xianbei. He later became a monk in Hebei and his master changed his surname to Ma.
Xue Jun is the ancestral brother of Xue Zhou, the Minister of Punishment. In layman's terms, they both have the same great-grandfather.
As for Dali Temple, which is in charge of prison cases, there are currently two young ministers, one is Zhao Chuo and the other is Yang Yue.
Yang Yue was the younger brother of Shangshu's right servant She Yang Su and a close friend of Jin Wang Yang Guang.
Did you see? Quan Te’s mother is a related household.
