For a moment, everyone in the hall looked at Du Yanbo with burning eyes.
Cui Li's face was cold and solemn, with a trace of worry hidden in his eyes.
Du Yanbo is from the Ministry of Punishment and is his direct subordinate.
Once a witchcraft case breaks out, the Ministry of Punishment will also be involved, which is definitely not easy to deal with.
Cui Li now only hopes that Du Yanbo can honestly explain and give out as many clues as possible, otherwise he will be angered by His Majesty and the Ministry of Punishment will not be able to get any benefits!
Du Yanbo naturally knew this truth. He knelt on the ground tremblingly: "Yes."
Immediately, he took a deep breath and began to tell what happened.
"This morning, Wei Chen, who was working in the Ministry of Punishment, suddenly received an order from Mr. Cui, asking Wei Chen to take the police officer and a group of people from the Ministry of Punishment to the Shen family to investigate the sudden death of Lord Shen. Wei Chen immediately took him with him
People are gone."
Cui Li also said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty, this is the time when the minister heard the sound of the grievance drum and hurried to the gate of the palace. He saw Mr. Shen and learned from him that Mr. Shen died suddenly last night, so he sent someone to convey the order.
The Ministry of Punishment, urgently go to investigate."
Emperor Zhaoming had a sullen face and nodded slightly.
The Ministry of Punishment is one of the six ministries in the three provinces of North Korea and China. It is responsible for the agency in charge of punishment, government orders, and the review of criminal names.
To put it simply, it is similar to the Public Security Bureau, which is one of the highest judicial institutions in the DPRK and China.
Unlike the Jingzhao Mansion, the Criminal Department is only responsible for reviewing major cases, and ordinary small cases are not handled by the Criminal Department.
Although the Shen family was deprived of their titles, the title of the old marquis remained. He was still the only first-class Wuhou in the Northern Qin Dynasty, and his status was second only to the royal relatives.
The sudden death of such a big shot fell completely within the scope of the Ministry of Punishment's responsibility. As the top leader of the Ministry of Punishment, Cui Li naturally had to send someone to investigate as soon as possible to confirm the authenticity of the case.
There is nothing wrong with this approach, and Wen Ge Lao and other important ministers didn't say anything.
The key point is after Du Yanbo led people to the Shen family.
Du Yanbo suppressed his fear and continued: "After Wei Chen and his people rushed to the Shen Mansion, the steward of the Shen family received Wei Chen and others, and took Wei Chen to the residence of the old marquis...
.Then, I saw the body of the old Marquis who died suddenly.
Wei Chen felt that the death of the old Marquis was unknown and there were many doubts, so he immediately asked the widower to come forward to check."
Everyone in the hall listened very carefully.
Xiao Lingyue was no exception. She listened and thought secretly, hoping to find clues.
Wu Zuo is an ancient forensic doctor, a person who specializes in examining corpses.
A person who can hold the position of a prisoner in the Ministry of Punishment must have rich experience and have seen many different ways of death.
Maybe you can find some flaws in it.
"After a preliminary examination, the old Marquis did not have any traces of poisoning or trauma on his body, and he was suspected to have died of illness. However, the housekeeper of the Shen Mansion insisted that there was no hidden disease in the old Marquis. The imperial doctor had just checked his pulse not long ago and said that the old Marquis had died of illness.
The prince's life is safe.
In order to confirm this, Weichen sent for the imperial physician who diagnosed the old Marquis' pulse, and the imperial physician confirmed that what the steward said was true."
When Du Yanbo said this, everyone in the hall frowned.
Mr. Wenge asked: "So, the old Marquis did not die of illness?"
Du Yanbo nodded heavily: "I'm afraid so, but the specific cause of death still needs careful examination to know."
The prince asked: "How did you find this witchcraft doll?"
Du Yanbo replied: "It's because of an aunt named Hua!"
"..." Upon hearing this name, Shen Zhijiang, who was being held on the ground, trembled and immediately raised his head. This chapter has been completed!
