Chapter three hundred and ninety-eight slander the prince
Hua Wenyan nodded affirmatively, then opened the mechanism, and a secret door appeared in front of everyone.
Long before they reached that wall, Togiya Changshi's heart almost jumped out of his throat!
They found the secret door!
"What do you have to say?"
Zhao Qian turned around and looked at the Chief of the East Palace.
Donggong Changshi's mind was in a mess, almost blank, "Chen, minister..."
"Chang Shi is not going to say that you have no knowledge of this matter, right?"
Everyone present was an old fox, and they instantly realized that Zhao Jin was referring to the chief historian of the East Palace, but in fact he was the prince.
"Shilang Qi also claimed to have no knowledge of the secret passage in his room." Zhao Jin looked at him in surprise, surprised and confused, "This is really a coincidence."
When the East Palace Chief Shi was about to say something, he was immediately blocked by Zhao Jin. He almost couldn't hold it back and stared directly at Zhao Jin.
"My lord, you are joking." Shi, the head of the East Palace, reluctantly twitched his lips, "But I really don't know what this secret door is all about."
Zhao Qian's eyes were so dark that he could hardly lift his head.
In fact, he didn't dare to raise his head.
"Go in and have a look."
After a while, Zhao Qian said with a gloomy face.
"yes."
Hua Wenyan walked in front, and Zhao Jin walked beside him.
They had already investigated this secret passage, but just in case, the two of them still carefully protected Zhao Qian.
Zhao Qian didn't make a sound all the way. The group went directly into Zhao Xingyu's bedroom and then came out from Qi Shaoqing's room.
Because Qi Shaoqing's room was sealed, the Qi family members who heard some rumors wanted to come over and have a look.
As soon as Zhao Jin and Zhao Qian walked out of the room, they saw several female relatives at the door of the yard.
The young lady and second lady they saw this morning were among them.
In addition, there was an older woman.
"I'm waiting for you, please see Your Majesty."
When everyone saw Zhao Qian, they were stunned at first, and then quickly knelt down.
No matter how much resentment they had in their hearts, they would never dare to show it at this time.
Zhao Qian waved his hand, he was not going to argue with some women, "Everyone, go down."
It was the older woman who answered Zhao Qian, "Yes."
Seeing that she had agreed, the other female family members did not dare to say anything more, and even the young lady followed quietly and left.
Zhao Jin had a suspicion in his mind that the woman might be General Qi's wife.
"Tell me, is this Qi Mansion colluding with the prince, or Qi Shaoqing colluding with the prince?" Zhao Qian asked in a deep voice.
Hua Wenyan and Zhao Jin both stood behind Zhao Qian, and the other party could not see their movements.
Zhao Jin saw Hua Wenyan glance at him carefully and nodded invisibly.
"Your Majesty, I think the latter is more likely."
Zhao Qian turned around and looked at Zhao Jin when he heard the sound, "Oh? Tell me?"
"If the Qi family colluded with the prince, Deputy Commander Lin's behavior does not make sense."
Zhao Jin's face was solemn, "I'm not afraid to tell you directly. I'm afraid that the man in black happens to be Deputy Commander Lin, and the ashes in the flower pot are the ashes of burned clothes."
Zhao Qian did not refute, but said: "Continue talking."
"Based on the current findings, Deputy Commander Lin must have been involved in this matter, and there were also problems with the arrest of General Qi that day. So, if the Qi family colluded with the prince and made this move, what was the purpose?"
"Are you going to kill everyone?"
Hua Wenyan, who was listening next to him, almost didn't dare to raise his head, and thought to himself: What Duke Xuanping said was too bold.
Strangely, Zhao Qian was not angry, but waited for Zhao Jin to continue speaking.
"But if Qi Shaoqing colluded with His Highness the Crown Prince, this matter would make sense."
Zhao Jin seemed not to realize how serious what he said was, "In order to get rid of the suspicion of His Royal Highness, Qi Shaoqing teamed up with Deputy Commander Lin to put the blame on General Qi."
"Zhao Jin." Zhao Qian called Zhao Jin's name in a deep voice.
Zhao Qian rarely calls Zhao Jin by his first name, let alone in such a gloomy tone.
The people waiting beside him tensed up for a moment, and Hua Wenyan also sweated for Zhao Jin, ready to rescue him at any time.
"Do you know that there is insufficient evidence now, so I can punish you for slandering the prince?"
Zhao Jin raised his head without fear, and as expected, saw no trace of anger in Zhao Qian's eyes, "Your Majesty, I just expressed my suspicion."
"The evidence is not yet sufficient, and I will not convict His Highness the Crown Prince for this, but this is the most reasonable inference at the moment."
Zhao Jin said softly: "Your Majesty, the evidence is not sufficient, but it is quite a lot."
"Hmph!" Just as Hua Wenyan and others were waiting in fear for Zhao Qian's anger, he snorted and laughed. The gloominess just now seemed to be just their illusion.
"You are quite brave."
Zhao Jin smiled on the surface and said, "Because I know that your Majesty is wise and powerful and knows right from wrong."
Zhao Qian glared at him. Could it be that if he blamed him, he would not be wise or wise?
"Let's go, this case can't be delayed any longer."
Zhao Jin nodded, "It's just that the flow of the secret love is still unclear. The seventh prince killed His Highness the Crown Prince."
Zhao Gan lowered his face and said, "Then do the same thing."
"I understand."
After accompanying Zhao Qian back to the palace, Zhao Jin went back to the Duke's Mansion first.
"My lord." Takeda was waiting for Zhao Jin at the door.
Zhao Jin was a little strange, "Why are you here?"
"Captain Qi, and two other generals Qi are here too." Takeda lowered his voice and whispered in Zhao Jin's ear.
Zhao Jin paused and asked, "Where is he?"
"I was not discovered by anyone else in the Grand Duke's yard."
So as soon as Zhao Jin stepped into his yard, he saw three people sitting around the stone table in the yard.
As soon as he heard the movement, six eyes fell directly on Zhao Jin.
Zhao Jin: "...Jun Che, two generals Qi."
Qi Yunche and Zhao Jin were familiar with each other, so they had less worries about getting along with each other. In a hurry, he strode over and asked, "Master Guo, how is my father?"
"It's impossible for him to have such an expression. Someone must be wrongly accusing him."
"Calm down." Zhao Jin patted Qi Yunche's shoulder, then walked around behind Qi Yunche's shoulder and brought him to the stone table to sit down again.
The other two are Qi Yunche's eldest and second brothers, Qi Junling and Qi Junhao. They are not Qi Yunche's biological brothers, but children picked up by Qi Jiahan outside.
But Zhao Jin could clearly feel that the two of them cared about Qi Jiahan.
Although unlike Qi Yunche, who directly rushed forward to ask him, her eyes were always glued to him, and she hesitated to speak, with worry that could not be concealed on her face.
Unlike Qi Shaoqing who was superficial, these two people were worried and restless.
"Don't worry, General Qi. We just discovered something this morning. If everything goes well, the Qi family will be free of guilt soon."
