Chapter 1543 Jin Ans plan to kidnap the eunuchs around the queen
The Criminal Investigation Department was busy from the first half of the night to the second half of the night.
In the first half of the night, the spice shop was raided, which caused a lot of discussion among the people, and various speculations and rumors spread.
In the second half of the night, the residence of the academician of Taiyuan Hospital was searched. This time it not only caused a sensation among the people, but also the upper-class officials in Beijing stayed up all night. All kinds of informants were mobilized to seek information from the Criminal Investigation Department through connections.
Soon after, news spread that the academician of the Taiyuan Hospital was a traitor to the enemy and had been bribed by the Steppe Khanate seven years ago. He even recently wanted to find an opportunity to poison the Holy King and avenge the fall of the Steppe Khanate. News spread.
Hearing that Cheng Baiqing was planning to poison Emperor Kang Zhao, everyone was in danger for a while. All the forces in the capital tried their best to distance themselves from the Taiyuan Hospital, fearing that they would be burned.
That night, no noble family dared to challenge the Criminal Chasi, and no one dared to stand up for the Spice Shop and come forward to embarrass the Criminal Chasi.
Everyone is speculating whether the Criminal Investigation Department received some holy edict, so they dared to act so vigorously, raiding the spice shop and the residence of the academician of the Taiyuan Hospital.
If the Criminal Investigation Division has not received instructions from the Holy Order, the various forces in the capital will not believe anything they say. Whether it is the interests involved in the spice shop or the status of an academician of the Taiyuan Hospital, they have exceeded the powers of the Criminal Investigation Division.
.
These intertwined forces have been entrenched in the capital for a long time. They are accustomed to looking at the partisan struggles in the capital from a secular perspective, ignoring that the current commander of the Criminal Investigation Department is still a martial artist.
The words of the old Taoist priest gave Jin An some inspiration. He wrote two files overnight, and then took a Biuan carriage to arrive outside the palace gate overnight.
As soon as the carriage stopped at the square outside the palace gate for half a stick of incense, the palace gate opened, and several eunuchs and a group of young eunuchs rode out of the palace gate overnight.
The sound of horses' hooves stopped suddenly just after they ran out of the palace gate. Looking at the horse carriage parked outside the palace gate, the eunuchs and eunuchs all looked surprised.
"My family has long heard about the detective Shenwuhou, and we have heard about Shenwuhou's previous case-solving deeds. However, according to our family, those case-solving deeds are far from describing Shenwuhou's wisdom and martial arts to the most profound level. Tonight, Shenwuhou
Not only did he become famous in one battle, but he was also able to guess the Holy Lord's thoughts in advance and waited at the palace gate in advance."
The eunuch who spoke was an old acquaintance, and he had delivered several imperial edicts.
"Pass the Holy Master's oral message, and Xuan Shen Wuhou will immediately go to the palace to pay homage."
"Marquis Shenwu, please."
All the eunuchs in the chamber dismounted and respectfully welcomed Marquis Shenwu into the palace.
Royal Palace.
Hall of Wende.
This is the second time Jin An has entered Wende Hall, and he feels a little more familiar and calm about strolling around than the last time he came.
Emperor Kang Zhao in the Hall of Wende was not wearing a dragon robe this time, but was wearing ordinary clothes and was reviewing memorials by light. It seemed that Emperor Kang Zhao had just woken up and hurriedly summoned Jin An.
"Marquis Shenwu, you brought me a big surprise tonight, but I was so shocked that I couldn't close my eyes. Whenever I closed my eyes, I felt like I saw someone planning to poison me and poison me."
"Since Taiyuan Hospital wants to poison me, will Shangshi Bureau poison me?"
"Since the Shangshi Bureau can poison me, will someone poison me in the Yuchen Palace where I go most often?"
Emperor Kang Zhao clapped his hands in shock and anger, and Long Yan was furious. He asked every question, but every one of them was angry.
All the palace maids, eunuchs, and guards in the Palace of Wende were so frightened that they collectively knelt down, trembling, and did not dare to make a sound.
Jin An took a few steps forward with a calm expression and placed the two closing files he had prepared in advance on the desk in front of Emperor Kang Zhao.
Emperor Kang Zhao picked up the file and browsed it quickly, then his expression changed and he said angrily in a deep voice: "There is such a thing!"
"How many concubines in my harem are using Tiangong Miaoge Rouge!"
Emperor Kang Zhao seemed to be furious this time, but in fact he was asking the old eunuch around him.
It is said that being with a king is like being with a tiger. If you can't learn to understand the emperor's thoughts, you won't know where you went wrong even if you were dragged to be beheaded. How can you become the head of the chamberlain department?
The eunuch who was serving Emperor Kang Zhao put his head on the ground and replied in a frightened voice: "Reply to Your Majesty, no, not much."
These old eunuchs are very good at observing people's words. Although they did not see what was written in the file, they somewhat guessed that it would not be a good thing to be related to the academician of Taiyuan Hospital. He had answered Emperor Kang Zhao's inquiry and would not offend.
Long Yan also left room for Emperor Kang Zhao and took care of Emperor Kang Zhao's face.
Emperor Kang Zhao was very angry at the moment, so after Long Yan's anger subsided, it would not be too late to quietly submit the list in private.
"Trash, you can't even handle such a small thing. If I don't get such a good man as Shenwuhou this time, I won't be able to count on you even if I am poisoned by traitors a hundred times!" Emperor Kang Zhao vented his anger and cursed, and continued to browse the case files in his hand.
When Emperor Kang Zhao scolded him for being useless, the old eunuch, instead of being frightened, secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
Emperor Kang Zhao can still curse people at this moment, at least he can vent his anger. But he is afraid that Emperor Kang Zhao's silence will make people unable to guess his thoughts, and many heads will fall to the ground.
The more Emperor Kang Zhao read the files, the more frightened and angry he became. After finishing the two files, he rubbed his temples, which were swollen and painful, and looked tired.
There was silence in the Hall of Wende for a long time, with only the crackling sound of lamp oil burning.
"Marquis Shenwu, have you investigated the issue of Tiangong Miao Pavilion Rouge? Have you verified it again and again? Is there possible misunderstanding here?" Emperor Kang Zhao looked at Jin An with a headache.
There are three thousand beauties in the harem. It's impossible for them all to be thrown into the cold palace overnight, right?
When the time comes, there is no need to wait for the restoration of the Steppe Khanate to take revenge. The clan forces behind the three thousand concubines in the harem will unite to cause trouble, and the internal chaos will begin first.
By the time the harem is on fire, it will be too late.
Although the old eunuch around him just said that there are not many noble concubines who use Tiangong Miaoge Rouge, but with the emperor's mind control technique that Emperor Kang Zhao has used all year round, how could he not guess the thoughts of these people below.
If the number of people is really small, they will just say the number of people.
He did not dare to say the number of people and gave vague answers, which means that there must be many concubines in the harem who use Tiangong Miaoge rouge-like powder.
Jin An calmly replied: "There is a Taoist Master Chen in our Five Zang Taoist Temple. The unique detoxification pills he refined can both detect poisons and detoxify the rouge poison. Even if the concubines are not poisoned, taking the unique detoxification pills can strengthen the body, replenish blood and nourish the skin."
.Daozhang Chen is traveling with me and is waiting in the carriage outside the palace gate."
When Emperor Kang Zhao heard this, he said happily: "Quickly summon Daochang Chen to the palace to detoxify and cure the disease."
Immediately a eunuch got up and went out to summon the old Taoist priest.
Jin'an reported another matter: "The Rouge poisoning case has a wide range of implications, and almost all the female relatives of every family in the capital are involved. These female relatives need to be examined one by one to see if there are any signs of poisoning. If there is any poisoning, they need to take Chen Daochang's unique detoxification
pill."
Emperor Kang Zhao's expression darkened: "How should I test myself?"
Jin An answered calmly: "Anyone who has no reaction after swallowing Jiedu Pills should pass the physical examination."
Emperor Kang Zhao Long Yan Yisong said: "It is necessary to have a physical examination. I will order someone to prepare an oral order tomorrow and order all civil and military officials to bring their families to the five internal organs to observe the physical examination."
As soon as he finished speaking, Emperor Kang Zhao's voice deepened and he said with dragon power: "Marquis Shenwu listens to the decree."
"As the Commander of the Criminal Investigation Department and the Supervisor of the Third Division, you have meritorious service in arresting the traitors, preventing Rouge's poisoning case is the second meritorious service, and preventing someone from the Imperial Hospital from planning to poison me is the third meritorious service. I will be awarded for all meritorious deeds.
Give me some gold, silver and jewels."
??????55.??????
"I have given you the full power to hunt down the remaining collaborators with the enemy, so that I can clear the emperor's side and protect the stability of the country. If anyone obstructs you, you have the right to kill first and report later. When all the remaining collaborators with the enemy are cleared, I will promote you to a higher position and personally celebrate your success.
.”
The old eunuch who was kneeling on the ground trembled when he heard this.
This time he was almost poisoned. The Holy King was so angry that he actually appointed Marquis Shenwu as the imperial envoy and gave Marquis Shenwu such great privileges.
From now on, anyone who dares to touch the Criminal Investigation Department will be suspected of rebellion, and the Criminal Investigation Department can kill him first and then report him.
…
…
When Jin An exited the Wende Hall, he did not leave immediately. Instead, he waited for the old Taoist priest to enter the Wende Hall and meet Emperor Kang Zhao. The two of them followed the eunuch who led the way and left together.
It was the first time for the old Taoist priest to enter the palace. When he came, his mouth and eyes kept moving all the way. He was in high spirits and kept marveling that the palace was as big as his grandma's.
When he went back, he had a sad face all the way: "Little brother, you have hurt me this time. Do you know how many concubines there are in the harem? Where did I get so many antidote pills?"
Jin An answered naturally: "Don't all storytellers say there are three thousand beauties in the harem?"
The old Taoist priest rolled his eyes when he heard this: "You know you have a harem of three thousand, so why would you still recommend my detoxifying pills to detoxify human oil..."
Jin An gave a look and the old Taoist priest stopped his mouth in time.
Jin An: "Although I submitted two true and false files, the true file is in the hands of Emperor Kang Zhao, and the fake file is used to stabilize the people's hearts, but there is no airtight wall in the world, so I need your unique antidote pills for Emperor Kang Zhao.
All civil and military officials are at the same level."
"Your detoxification pills can not only detoxify, but also solve the world's heart ailments."
The old Taoist priest is a man who takes hard work rather than soft things, and is the most unworthy of praise. When he saw that his unique detoxification pill was so praised by Jin'an, he immediately felt refreshed and walked like a dragon and tiger: "Just now, old Taoist, I made a heartfelt promise to the emperor.
Just three thousand detoxification pills? Even if I don't eat or drink, and the wax torch turns to ashes, I will still make three thousand detoxification pills."
"As long as I can refine three thousand detoxification pills, the emperor will agree to give me the title himself and make me a royal physician."
Jin An gave a thumbs up: "I'm optimistic about you, old Taoist."
The old Taoist priest was proud of himself and straightened his back: "That's right, as an old Taoist, I call this the precious sword that is not old yet."
The chamberlain who was leading the way was so frightened that he dared not breathe when he heard the shocking remarks of Jin An and the two men behind him, fearing that if he heard one more words that he shouldn't hear, he would be beheaded.
…
When Jin An and the old Taoist priest returned to the carriage parked outside the imperial city, Deputy Commander Sun whispered to Jin An: "Master Commander, do you still remember the carriage that the Ministry of Internal Affairs showed up at the Spice Factory?
Saw that carriage."
oh?
Jin An raised his eyebrows.
Deputy Commander Sun lowered his voice and said, "It's Deputy Chamberlain Wei, a middle-class person next to the Queen."
"But what's strange is that the carriage hurriedly left the imperial city and did not return to the imperial city from outside. It seems that Deputy Wei's carriage returned to the imperial city early and then went out again for unknown reasons?"
After Jin'an boarded the Biwan carriage, he did not leave immediately, but asked the convoy to wait outside the imperial city.
After waiting for an hour, the sky slowly polished and turned into a layer of clear fish belly white.
Ta da——
Ta da——
The crisp sound of horse hoofbeats broke the calm in the square in front of the imperial city. Deputy Commander Sun reported in a low voice outside the carriage: "Your Majesty, Vice Commander Wei's carriage has returned."
"Deputy Chamberlain Wei is riding in the carriage, and he is lifting the curtain to look at us."
ah!
Deputy Commander Sun was stunned!
Jin An was sitting in the Biwan carriage and said in a low voice: "Emperor Kang Zhao has given me full authority to search for the remaining members of the Grassland Khanate. If there is any obstruction, I have the right to kill them first and report later."
"Deputy Chamberlain Wei of the Ministry of Internal Affairs appeared outside the spice shop tonight, and now he just returned to the imperial city from outside, acting suspiciously. I now suspect that Deputy Chamberlain Wei is suspected of collaborating with the enemy and treason, and he was taken back to the Water Prison of the Criminal Investigation Division and tortured.
"
Deputy Commander Sun sang loudly, and not long after, a loud quarrel came from the square outside the imperial city. A thin-skinned eunuch who was tied up with a strip of cloth in his mouth was roughly thrown into the carriage by Deputy Commander Sun.
inside.
Several young eunuchs ran to the Imperial City, crying, to fetch reinforcements from the Imperial Guard.
But the Imperial Guards took their time to get out of the city.
It was obvious that he had gotten wind of the situation and knew that the Criminal Investigation Department was at its peak now, so he did not want to wade into this muddy water.
One is a person just appointed by the emperor, who has the power of life and death, and the other is a noble person around the queen. They are all the family affairs of Emperor Kang Zhao, and they are not easy to manage.
Moreover, Jin An's shooting of a Rakshasa man in public outside the imperial city happened just a few months ago, and his aura of intimidation was still there.
In the end, Jin'an kidnapped the middle-class nobles around the queen in front of the Imperial City's imperial guards, and left smoothly. No one dared to stop him, for fear of being accused of treason and collaboration with the enemy.
The old Taoist priest in the Biwan carriage was dumbfounded when he saw Jin An blatantly kidnapping away the queen's favorites.
Jin An saw that the old Taoist priest looked worried, so he explained: "Old Taoist, do you know why I let people deliberately let out the news that the academicians of the Taiyuan Hospital colluded with foreigners to poison Emperor Kang Zhao?"
The old Taoist priest was not stupid. After the initial shock, he took a deep breath and came to his senses. He was surprised and said: "Old Taoist, I was still curious before. Only you and I know about this matter. How did the news leak out? I didn't expect that it was a little kid."
Brother, you deliberately let the news out."
"Little brother, are you trying to say that it's because of this person named Wei?"
Jin An sneered and said: "Emperor Kang Zhao didn't give me any rewards this time. He just promised me a verbal reward to celebrate my achievements afterwards. It was clearly to prevent me from being promoted too quickly and making a great achievement in the end."
"So he promised a verbal reward, not only to make me burst into tears of gratitude, but also to make me relieve his worries and eliminate the remaining foreign gangs. At the same time, he made all the officials in the capital fear me, exclude me, and not dare to get too close to me, especially those behind the spice shop.
Interests are intertwined, and the more Emperor Kang Zhao praises me too highly, the interest groups behind the Spice Factory will only see me as a thorn in their side, and their grievances will be difficult to quell."
"All of these serve only one purpose, trapping me in the quagmire of secular power struggles, making me exhausted from dealing with the court's abuses and deceptions, and unable to distract myself from other things."
Jin An continued to sneer and said: "But I didn't plan to ask for any reward in the first place. It is enough to make Emperor Kang Zhao feel that someone will threaten him to continue to sit on the throne and order me to continue investigating the case of collaborating with the enemy and treason."
"The unintentional discovery of the academician of Taiyuan Hospital this time just gave us a legitimate reason to continue to pursue the clues of the spice shop in an open and honest manner. We can also catch this eunuch in an open and honest manner, which saves many steps of the slow and secret investigation."
A case of collaboration with the enemy and treason was discovered, and the goods were received accidentally.
Jin An has never forgotten that the real purpose of his attack this time was to deliberately scare the enemy and scare the mastermind behind the scenes.
