Ji Yaohua doesn't know the reason why Yang Qingyuan checked Songyue Tower. She only needs to know that Yang Qingyuan must have his reasons for doing so!
Then Yang Qingyuan and Ji Yaohua came to the evidence room together and took out two evidence bags from their hands.
In order to help investigate the case, Feng Qian temporarily lent the folding fan and fan pendant to Yang Qingyuan.
If Yang Qingyuan’s guess is correct, the strange fingerprints on this pendant have been collected by Dali Temple!
"Sir, Master Ji!"
"Which box was Fangyuan's sword in before?!"
After consulting the files, the scribe in charge of guarding stood up and said, "Sir, it's in the box of Tian Zi Ding on the second floor."
Yang Qingyuan took the key from the scribe's book.
If you ask where the Dali Temple has the tightest defense, there may be many answers, such as the Tianlao, the Prison Suppression Department, and Yang Qingyuan's study.
But when asked about the most secret place in Dali Temple, the only answer is this evidence room!
The capital of the Great Zhou Dynasty, the Divine Capital, was rebuilt on the ruins of Xianyang, the former capital of the Qin Dynasty. Based on the original foundation, it was continuously expanded and expanded to achieve the majestic and prosperous Divine Capital today.
The current Dali Temple in the Zhou Dynasty is the ruins of the Dali Temple in the Pre-Qin Dynasty.
Therefore, its architectural style is very different from other government offices in the Zhou Dynasty.
The evidence room now in Dali Temple was originally the eighteen-story death row of Dali Temple in the former Qin Dynasty, which was used to imprison various martial arts masters who were suppressed by the former Qin Dynasty.
The Dali Temple in Yang Qingyuan's hands did not have that kind of strength, and Yang Qingyuan never thought about completely turning the world against the imperial court. The water, death, heaven, and earth death cells in Dali Temple were enough for Dali Temple's daily use, so he transformed this top-secret prison that had never been used.
death row.
The death row was converted into a top-secret evidence room and archives room.
Seventeen of the floors store various evidences and files.
Yang Qingyuan took out a special key from the box on the side and inserted it into the mechanism on the side. A stone door in the evidence room slowly opened.
This is the passage leading to the third floor. The eighteen floors of death row are not connected to each other. If you want to go from one floor to another, you can only re-enter through the passage on the ground.
Yang Qingyuan entered the third floor, and after a moment, he took out a sword box.
For the purpose of investigating the case, Yang Qingyuan left the Black Iron Sword in Dali Temple with the consent of the sword owner Fang Baoyu.
This black iron sword once had the fingerprints of the leader of the attackers, and that one also appeared among the crowd in Changyin Garden at that time.
Based on the comprehensive analysis of the scene at Changyin Garden at that time and the current case, two and a half people have been present in this case.
Feng Qian!
Zhou Mingsheng!
There is also Zhao Chenzhao, a doctor in the Ministry of Punishment. However, although he is also involved in the case, the Wanli Gambling House in Wannian County has nothing to do with him. He is just Li Shou's case.
As for Feng Qian and Yang Qingyuan, they tested it personally and lowered the level of suspicion in their minds.
So now the only one left is Zhou Mingsheng!
The case in Wannian County and the scene in Changyin Garden all have Zhou Mingsheng's shadow. If Feng Qian's appearance is a coincidence, what about Zhou Mingsheng?!
Yang Qingyuan put on his whale skin gloves and took out the black iron sword from the sword box.
The fingerprints on this sword are likely to verify his conjecture!
As the pattern-revealing powder was sprinkled, the fingerprints on the Black Iron Sword were revealed.
Yang Qingyuan saw two thumbprints that were exactly the same as those on the fan pendant!
The person who attacked and killed Fangyuan and Yaya was the same person who caused Li Shou's case!
Now we just need to verify whether this person is Zhou Mingsheng! With this evidence, Dali Temple can arrest Zhou Mingsheng!
As for the rest of the matter, just try it slowly. With Dali Temple's interrogation skills, I'm afraid I won't be able to pry open the mouth of a mere Zhou Mingsheng?!
Among the regulations of Dali Temple, there is a rule not to use severe torture to extract confessions to prevent unjust cases.
But there are also explanation clauses. Dali Temple also allows the use of special interrogation methods for criminals who have confirmed the facts of the crime but refuse to confess!
"Sir, did you do it alone?!"
Ji Yaohua looked at the black iron sword and white jade fan pendant in Yang Qingyuan's hand, and already knew Yang Qingyuan's intention.
Yang Qingyuan nodded, "Now the context of the matter is basically clear. All that's left are the details of Li Shou's case and his arrest!"
If Zhou Mingsheng is the real culprit behind the scenes, then this case has just begun!
After finding out the truth, how to deal with the real culprit becomes the key to this case.
"Miss Yao, please send someone to hold my name card and ask Zhou Mingsheng to go to my house and tell him that Dali Temple has raided some shops and wants to negotiate a business deal with him!"
If it were in the name of Dali Temple, Zhou Mingsheng would definitely not come. Try it in Yang Qingyuan's personal name.
Yang Qingyuan has already planned to ambush a swordsman in his mansion... um... catch him!
He directly used fingerprint powder to check the places where Zhou Mingsheng had touched. Once it was confirmed that Zhou Mingsheng's fingerprints were consistent with those left by the murderer, he immediately threw a cup as a sign and captured Zhou Mingsheng!
If Zhou Mingsheng is allowed to hide in the East Palace, Dali Temple will be in trouble if they want to catch him!
When the people from Dali Temple went to Zhou Mingsheng's house with the name card, they were naturally rejected!
Zhou Mingsheng's servant claimed that he was not at the house, left an invitation, and sent the Dali Temple police officers back.
"Sir, Zhou Mingsheng's behavior will undoubtedly increase his suspicion!"
When Ji Yaohua heard the report from the person who went to deliver the invitation, she felt that Zhou Mingsheng had something up his sleeve.
Yang Qingyuan nodded while holding the tea cup, "I think so too! There is a high probability that he won't come! It would be much easier if he really shows up!"
"What should we do?!"
Yang Qingyuan was not in a hurry, "Relax! Although the identity of the Crown Princess's brother is Zhou Mingsheng's talisman, it is also Zhou Mingsheng's flaw. If it is really him, it will not be difficult to find him out. It is rare to find him guilty.
!”
Ji Yaohua hesitated for a moment and couldn't help but persuade, "Since you already know that the prince is standing behind Zhou Mingsheng, why do you insist on investigating!?"
Although the prince has never ascended the throne, he is still the prince of Zhou Dynasty and the future emperor. Now that the situation of the throne has become clear, it would be unwise to offend the prince at this time.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Seeing that Yang Qingyuan did not speak, Ji Yaohua continued to analyze, "Your Excellency, the water transport case defeated the power of the King of Chu. Although it was unintentional, it was indeed
He is the number one contributor to helping the prince secure his position in the East Palace! Why is this so?!"
As the truth was revealed, Ji Yaohua began to worry!
I am not worried about whether Dali Temple can bring the murderer to justice, but I am worried about Yang Qingyuan's safety.
Even if Yang Qingyuan is a confidant of Emperor Zhou, even if Yang Qingyuan is invincible in the Yuanhua realm, even if he has a senior brother named Zhang Sanfeng.
But that is going against the crown prince and the future emperor!
Ji Yaohua is not afraid of death, but she is afraid of seeing Yang Qingyuan die!
"..."
In this matter, Yang Qingyuan is indeed a bit selfish! For his own selfish reasons, he dragged the entire Dali Temple into a chariot against the prince, but he didn't know it.
What he wants to do may not be what everyone in Dali Temple wants to do!
"It's true that I didn't think carefully about this matter. Miss Yao, please tell the brothers below! Don't panic, nothing will happen to Dali Temple!"
Ji Yaohua's eyes darkened when she heard this. Is this what she cares about?!
Yang Qingyuan still doesn’t understand, or doesn’t want to understand!
Maybe at a certain moment, Yang Qingyuan would be gentle, but it was not what Ji Yaohua wanted.
"Please rest assured, sir, I will live and die with you!"
Ji Yaohua's voice was not like the oaths of ordinary subordinates. It was not imposing but full of tenderness.
Yang Qingyuan is not a fool, how could he not understand the meaning of Ji Yaohua's words.
Since the establishment of Dali Temple, Ji Yaohua has been by his side, and Yang Qingyuan has helped Ji Yaohua complete Penglai martial arts, gradually restoring and even carrying forward Penglai martial arts.
Ji Yaohua also played an irreplaceable role in the revival of Dali Temple.
He helped her break through the cage and regain her freedom!
She has no worries about life or death for him and is always by his side!
Yang Qingyuan’s heart is not made of stone, how can he remain indifferent!?
Just when Yang Qingyuan was about to say something, a slightly panicked maid broke the strange atmosphere.
"Sir...uh...Master Ji is here too!"
The maid felt that she came at the wrong time!
"Xiaoyue, why are you here!?"
The one who came was not the police officer from Dali Temple, but Xiaoyue, the maid from Yang Qingyuan’s house!
If something hadn't happened at home, this little maid wouldn't have come to Dali Temple to look for her.
Yang Qingyuan had no choice but to swallow the second half of what he wanted to say. The panic expression on the little maid's face clearly meant that something had happened!
"Sir, Mr. Wei, the Minister of the Ministry of Justice, and Mr. Li, the Censor of Zuodu of the Imperial Procuratorate, came to visit me!" Xiao Yue handed over two name cards in a slight panic.
Xiao Yue is just a maid. Although there are officials who come and go in Yang Qingyuan's house, most of them are Yang Qingyuan's friends in the same year, and the one with the highest official position is Wang Hua from the General Affairs Department.
Where have I seen such a great person?!
The Minister of the Ministry of Justice is the second rank, and the Censor of Zuodu is the second rank.
The chief minister of Dali Temple was demoted one level due to Hu Lan's case and was reduced to the third rank.
Yang Qingyuan became the Minister of Dali Temple, and in terms of rank and rank, he was also below these two bosses.
"Are you wearing official uniform or regular uniform?!"
"It's regular clothes!"
Xiaoyue answered without hesitation.
Yang Qingyuan smiled slightly and whispered to himself, "Trouble is coming before we take action!"
"Take it back, watch the tea, and tell me I'll be here soon!"
Ji Yaohua also looked surprised. It was a bit unusual for two big figures from the political and legal system to come together, but they still came in regular clothes to visit Yang Qingyuan's private residence.
Yang Qingyuan was already mentally prepared.
"I expected this, but I didn't expect them to come so quickly!"
"They are also related to Li Shou's case?!"
Yang Qingyuan spread his hands, "I don't know, but I guess it probably doesn't matter."
"Then what's the purpose of their visit?!"
"The purpose?! Of course it's for Li Shou's case!"
Ji Yaohua was a little confused by Yang Qingyuan!
"Of course it's for the sake of fame and official position! I may also come to visit you if you change places!"
Yang Qingyuan mocked.
"for what?!"
"If there is really something fishy about Li Shou's case, the real culprit will certainly be brought to justice. Because Dali Temple has re-investigated the case, the original negative impact will be minimized. What about the Ministry of Punishment and the Metropolitan Procuratorate?!
How should they handle themselves!?"
Yang Qingyuan explained patiently that he had been training Ji Yaohua and her future should not be just the head of the Broadcasting and Information Department.
"of course……"
Ji Yaohua couldn't continue talking until halfway through!
Then Ji Yaohua immediately reacted, "In this case, not only the Ministry of Justice, the Metropolitan Procuratorate, but also the reputation of the cabinet and the emperor will be damaged because of this!!"
Ji Yaohua said anxiously, "Why don't you stop, sir!?"
If the emperor and the cabinet are dissatisfied with Yang Qingyuan, Yang Qingyuan's career will be over.
"Of course I know!"
But if you know it, is it good? Although Yang Qingyuan cannot be called a gentleman, how can he avoid it because of misfortune and good fortune?
Ji Yaohua understood that how could Yang Qingyuan not understand things that she could think clearly?!
"Sir, please feel free to deal with them! With me in Dali Temple, there will be no chaos!"
Yang Qingyuan has made up his mind, and Ji Yaohua supports his decision!
Yang Qingyuan nodded, put on his official uniform, and walked slowly towards his mansion.
In the Yang Mansion, Wei Donglai, the Minister of Punishment, and Li Weiguang, the Yushi of Zuodu, had already exchanged three cups of tea.
"Master Wei, do you think Qingyuan deliberately avoided seeing you!?"
On the surface, Wei Donglai was more stable than Li Weiguang, "Master Li, please be patient. It's a long way from here to Dali Temple. You have to give Master Yang some time."
In fact, Wei Donglai is the more nervous among the two. Although the Metropolitan Procuratorate failed in its duties during the review, the biggest responsibility lies with the Gyeonggi Supervisory Censor Hu Yunji. Li Weiguang, the Zuodu Censor, has the most responsibility.
That is to say, if the leader makes a mistake, it is no big deal.
He came here just to be entrusted by someone. He has a good personal relationship with Yang Qingyuan and wants to persuade Yang Qingyuan to stop in time!
But Wei Donglai is different!
He is the top leader of the Criminal Department, and this case also passed through his hands during the review stage.
If it is really found out that Li Shou's case was unjust, false and wrong, then Wei Donglai's decades of official reputation will be destroyed!
A quarter of an hour later, when both of them were impatient, Yang Qingyuan's voice came from outside the door.
"I'm sorry! I kept you two adults waiting for so long!"
Yang Qingyuan walked in wearing an elegant official uniform.
"I'm on official business, and Dali Temple is a little far away from the mansion, so I'm late! Please forgive me."
Wei Donglai and Li Weiguang on the side exchanged a look.
They all knew that Yang Qingyuan had just returned to Beijing and was only here to investigate the case, but now he had put on official uniform and came to see them. The meaning was self-evident, was he planning to do business in a matter-of-fact manner!?
Li Weiguang and Yang Qingyuan had a good personal relationship. After they both sat down, they spoke first.
"Qingyuan is really diligent in government affairs, but we old guys are taking a break from our busy schedule!"
"Lord Li, you are serious. Both of you are important ministers of the imperial court. They work hard to deal with government affairs on weekdays, so you should combine work and rest!"
Yang Qingyuan spat out the real energy in his palm, cooling down the scalding tea. He smiled and drank the tea in one gulp, leaving Li Weiguang and Wei Donglai stunned for a moment.
Why did the tea that was piping hot and steaming just now dry up in one gulp?!
Besides, I didn’t even get a sip of tea!!
Wei Donglai adjusted his collapsed mentality and asked, "I heard that Mr. Yang is investigating Li Shou's case!?"
