Chapter Five Hundred and Fifty Four: Ten Thousand Pieces
This motivation is almost a hurdle that cannot be overcome. Even if there is a motivation, Wu Hong is really a rioter, but since he is a rioter, why should he do stupid things again?
It is unreasonable to have the opportunity to kill the emperor poisonously, but to kill the queen poisonously.
A real rioter can never do such a stupid thing. At least if Liu Chengfeng assumes that he is a rioter, the poisonous wine will naturally be sent to the wine case on Zhu Youzhu.
Xiao Jing's words left Liu Chengfeng speechless.
Even Zhu Youzhi's face couldn't help but ease a little.
Wu Hong, who was kneeling on the ground, had no choice but to speak out, but after hearing Xiao Jing excuse him, he became a little braver and hurriedly said: "Yes, yes, if I am a rioter, why should I leave the near and far away? Those wines were brought up by me.
Yes, the Queen needs wine, and His Majesty is also waiting for wine. Why did I send the poisonous wine to the Queen instead of sending it to His Majesty?”
He thought for a while and continued, "Besides, three days ago, the miscellaneous family had no time to enter the wine cellar. They just turned around and came out. If it were a rioter, how could it be so careless? If Liu Qianshi didn't believe it,
You can summon the person guarding the wine cellar and ask carefully. I did just go around the wine cellar. If I hide it, thousands of arrows will pierce my heart and die.”
He made a statement about rewriting confessions, which was another powerful evidence.
If Wu Hong really poisoned three days ago, he had to stay in the wine cellar for a long time. After all, so many wine jars need to be poisoned, and the amount of arsenic needs to be calculated. There is not a few incense sticks.
It is absolutely impossible. If you just fight, there will be no time to poison it.
Liu Chengfeng was also confused at this time. Logically speaking, Wu Hong was the most suspicious. But now it seems that it may not be him, because many things have not been figured out and there are too many doubts.
He pondered for a moment and called a personal army and said, "Come here, call Zhou Chen, the eunuch who is guarding the wine cellar."
The personal army took the order and left.
Taking advantage of this vacancy, Xiao Jing couldn't help but sarcastically said: "It is said that Liu Qianshi is like a god to judge cases. He is best at capturing the rioters, but now it seems that the miscellaneous families are not worthy of their reputation."
Liu Chengfeng ignored him, but began to think about it in his heart.
What was placed in front of him were two great doubts. One was that Wu Hong did not have enough time to commit the crime, and the other was that Wu Hong did not have the need to poison the queen but abandon the emperor. If these two doubts were not explained clearly, the case would only be
I'm afraid it will be stranded again.
Is there someone else in this rebellion?
First of all, this person must have time to commit crimes and can go in and out of the wine cellar at will. And have enough time to put arsenic in the wine. In addition, he has the motivation to poison Queen Zhang.
If so, then there are ten evil people. Only those who may be Shangshenjian. Because except Shangshenjian, the rest of the people who go to and from the wine cellar need to have quotations and notes, and even record the time of entry and exit.
There are records on Shangshenjian.
Only when the Shangshenjian enters and leaves, can they stay for a long time and will not cause doubt.
In addition, although Empress Zhang is the leader of the inner palace, she has always been kind to others. Who has any blood hatred for her in this palace? The palace of the Hongzhi Dynasty was not as complicated as other periods. Here, the emperor had only one spouse and no so-called beauties in the harem.
,If it were other times, Liu Chengfeng might still be able to suspect that a concubine was jealous of the queen and instructed people to poison him, but now, Liu Chengfeng does not believe it.
The old concubines in the palace were obviously impossible to instruct them. They were not young, and Queen Zhang treated them well. It was time to live a life of her youth. Poisoning Queen Zhang did not do anything to them.
The benefits.
Except for the old concubine, the other nobles are even more unlikely, because there are too few nobles in the palace, and Princess Taikang is one, but Princess Taikang is Queen Zhang's daughter, so this kind of thing is absolutely impossible.
If it weren't for the instructor of the rioters or the continuation of the palace fighting, Liu Chengfeng's mind would be broken, and he wouldn't even think of anyone who was so bold.
Is there a possibility...
Liu Chengfeng suddenly thought of something, and this thought came out, and even he was shocked.
He couldn't help but look at Zhu Youzhang, and seeing that Zhu Youzhang's expression was as usual, Liu Chengfeng narrowed his eyes and fell into silence.
Immediately afterwards, Zhou Chen was taken in again.
Just like the first time he was interrogated, Zhou Chen still looked timid. As soon as he came in, he saw the emperor, Liu Chengfeng, and Eunuch Xiao were all there. He was so scared that his legs were about to become weak. He knelt down with a thump.
He was on the ground and said, "I... I have seen Your Majesty... Long live my emperor."
Liu Chengfeng coughed and asked, "This is my son's night, I ask you, do you say Wu Hong has entered the wine cellar, right?"
Zhou Chen did not dare to hide it. He first glanced at Wu Hong carefully, then gritted his teeth and said, "Yes, this is what I said."
Liu Chengfeng continued to ask: "So, three days ago, did Wu Hong enter the wine cellar? You will answer it in a real way."
Zhou Chen thought for a while and said, "I remembered that Wu Shaojian had also entered the wine cellar three days ago."
Liu Chengfeng said lightly: "Since you have been in three days ago, why don't you say it?"
"Ah..." Zhou Chen was stunned for a moment, looking stupid, and after a long time, Qiqi Ai Ai said: "I was very scared at that time, so...so..."
He looked timid, like a frightened deer, and his whole body was trembling at this moment.
Liu Chengfeng stopped scaring him and tried to ask in a gentle tone: "You don't have to be afraid. I just asked you a few words. Yes, how long did Wu Hong go in at that time?"
"This..." Zhou Chen looked hard to recall, and then said slowly: "This... I don't remember it very clearly, it seems... it seems like there is a time for one or two incense sticks."
As soon as he finished speaking, Wu Hong almost jumped out and shouted: "Zhou Chen, what are you talking nonsense? What's the time for one or two incense sticks!"
Wu Hong's loss of composure makes sense. If such a big thing falls on his head, it will be a serious crime of siege and extermination. It is still light to cut into pieces. His biggest counter-proof is that he does not have enough time to poison.
But now Zhou Chen said that he had been in the wine cellar for a few incense sticks. Such a long time was enough for him to do a lot of things. He shouted: "The family clearly only went in and made a move."
Son, Your Majesty... Liu Qianshi clearly observed that if I had a false statement, I would not die well..."
Wu Hong was completely panicked at this moment. Obviously, he also understood in his heart what Zhou Chen's testimony meant.
Liu Chengfeng's eyes became colder and he said, "Wu Hong, now is not the time for you to speak, shut your mouth."
Wu Hong almost fell into dissipation. It was obvious that Liu Chengfeng had no interest in listening to his comments.
Liu Chengfeng's eyes fell on Zhou Chen again and said gently: "Can you confirm the time for one or two incense sticks?"
Zhou Chen lowered his head, as if he was frightened by Wu Hong's roar just now, and lay on the ground, saying, "It should be nothing wrong. When Wu Hong went in, he even greeted the servant, saying that he was ordered to go in and check it out.
The wine cellar, I thought to myself, a member of the Inner Crown Office came to our Shangshen Crown Office to check what? But after all, he was in the palace... I dared not stop him, so I had to let him in. One or two incense sticks were gone.
When Eunuch Wu came out, he also told the slaves to be careful and that the Empress's birthday will be in a few days."
Wu Hong's face completely lost its blood, and a complete despair flashed through his eyes.
Although his motive for poisoning the Queen was unclear, he just lied that he had just beaten in the wine cellar, but now it was exposed by Zhou Chen. He had committed perjury before. In this case, he poisoned it.
Who else can you have if you are not a man?
The reason is actually very simple. If a person uses perjury to deceive others, it will only deepen others' suspicion of him. Not to mention, he, a civil servant, and a few supervisors, entered the wine cellar of Shangshenjian repeatedly.
He was just confused, but now he has no choice but to argue.
Not to mention him, even Xiao Jing's face turned cold at this moment. He knew in his heart that Wu Hong could no longer save him.
Because at this moment, Zhu Youzhang's eyes had turned blood red, and even the emperor had firmly believed that Long Yan's anger had begun to brew, and the next thing was how to deal with the problem of the rebellion.
Zhu Youzhang's eyes were on fire, and he was obviously in great anger. His hands were placed on the handle of the seat, his elbows were trembling slightly, he stared at Wu Hong with gritted teeth, and said word by word: "
Wu Hong, do you still want to deny it? I treat you well, and now I dare to do such a traitor. Today...I..."
Zhu Youting was so excited that he couldn't continue to say anything like a thorn in his throat. His anger was imaginable. He saw that his queen was poisoned and almost lost her life. The poisoned person was actually the palace.
The young prison inside, Zhu Youzhang, was blinded by the revenge thought, and he wanted to tear Wu Hong into pieces immediately.
"Come..." Zhu Youzhang took a deep breath and finally calmed down.
"Are." The personal soldiers, like wolves and tigers, responded one after another.
Zhu Youzhang was about to fall, but at this moment, Liu Chengfeng suddenly said, "Let's wait!"
Liu Chengfeng shouted this, almost everyone was stunned, but Liu Chengfeng said slowly: "Your Majesty, I think that things are not that simple. This Wu Hong is not a poisoned person.
”
He said it, almost everyone was surprised.
Not Wu Hong? Could anyone else be there?
Liu Chengfeng said: "The real murderer is the one who makes me feel right, and this person is in this room. Can Your Majesty give me some time? I only need one stick of incense stick of time, so I will definitely give you an explanation.
The first chapter is delivered, and this chapter starts filling the pit again, so it is very simple to get the code. Digging the pit is easy to fill the pit. Oh, please give me some monthly tickets.
