As soon as these words came out, several important ministers in the palace took a deep breath!
Xiao Lingyue couldn't help but frown.
When he died, his face was distorted and his eyes were open in anger...Isn't this just a matter of dying with your eyes in peace?
Normal illness and death will not happen like this.
The prince said solemnly: "So, there is indeed a problem with the death of the old Marquis? Was he killed by someone?"
Du Yanbo said with cold sweat: "Due to the emergency, Wu Zuo hasn't had time to verify it carefully, and the cause of death cannot be determined for the time being. However... When Wei Chen was investigating in the Shen family, an aunt in the Shen family insisted that it was Shen. Wan killed the old Marquis and requires us to investigate carefully."
Du Yanbo was just the minister of the Ministry of Justice and his official position was not high.
Therefore, he did not know who "Shen Wan" was and just reported it truthfully.
The expressions of everyone in the hall became subtle again, and they looked at each other: What is going on with the Shen family?
Everyone insists that they are from Anping County?
The prince said: "You continue talking."
Du Yanbo said: "Under the repeated requests of the Shen family, Wei Chen could not refuse, so he led people from the Ministry of Punishment to search Shen Wan's residence. Unexpectedly, he really found something bad!"
Cold sweat was streaming down his forehead, and his expression was inexplicably nervous: "When I saw the seriousness of the matter, I really didn't dare to make any decisions, so I had to let people from the Ministry of Punishment temporarily guard the Shen family, and hurried into the palace with the things I found, and asked Your Majesty reports."
Cui Li was startled and couldn't help but frown.
Du Yanbo is his direct subordinate, so he naturally knows what kind of temper he is.
If the matter was not really serious, Du Yanbo would not dare to say such things.
The prince narrowed his eyes slightly and asked, "What did you find in the Shen family?"
"This is it!"
Du Yanbo raised the box in his hand, his expression even more tense.
He said solemnly: "This object is unknown. Please, Your Highness, please step back to avoid being infected by bad luck!"
"..."
Everyone's expressions changed again and again. Is it so serious?
What on earth is it?
The prince realized that the situation was unusual, but he was not afraid and said in a deep voice: "How dare Fang Xiao dare to cause trouble in front of the emperor? I am here to watch, just open it."
"yes."
Du Yanbo did not dare to disobey, he held the small box in his hand, gritted his teeth, and opened the box.
The prince took a closer look and his pupils suddenly tightened: "This is...!"
When Mr. Wen Ge and others saw the sudden change in the prince's expression, they immediately became concerned. They all came over to take a look and gasped in unison.
Mr. Wen Ge was furious: "Du Yanbo, you are so brave! How dare you bring such a thing into the palace!"
Du Yanbo knelt on the ground with a plop: "The sin of a humble minister deserves death!"
When he brought this thing into the palace, he knew that it was not a good job and might cause his head to fall off.
However, the nature of this thing was extremely serious, and it was definitely not something that a small servant like him could handle. It had to be brought to the palace and handed over to His Majesty for disposal. He had no choice but to bite the bullet and bring it to the palace himself.
As Du Yanbo knelt down, the box in his hand hit the ground with a clang.
A rag doll fell out of it.
The doll was very crudely made, with yellow paper pasted on the front and back with blood-red writing on it.
But the most horrifying thing is——
The rag doll's body is covered with silver needles, and the cold light makes people shudder!
Emperor Zhaoming stood up suddenly!
Eunuch Su recognized it at a glance. Cold sweat broke out on his head. He subconsciously stood in front of Emperor Zhaoming and said, "Your Majesty, be careful! This thing is evil!"
Xiao Lingyue naturally saw it too, and her expression suddenly changed. This chapter has been completed!
