Chapter 438: The emperor got it right
The bridegroom officer is dead, and the bride is gone.
The marriage of the two is still bestowed by God...
The maid who found Zhu Ziyu's body almost went mad, and after slowing down, she hurriedly reported the situation to Princess Rongyang.
Princess Rongyang was silly for a long time and hurried to the general's mansion.
She and Cui Xu haven't lived together for a long time.
Along the way, people from the General's Mansion greeted Princess Rongyang.
"Where is your general?"
"The general is practicing sword in the martial arts field."
Princess Rongyang rushed all the way to the martial arts field in the northeast corner, and at a glance she saw the man dancing the sword vigorously in the morning light.
"Cui Xu--" she yelled.
Cui Xu stopped moving and strode over with his sword.
Seeing Cui Xu's expression faint, Princess Rongyang gritted her teeth and said: "You still have time to practice swords, something has happened!"
"What's the matter?" Cui Xu put away the sword and wiped his sweat.
Princess Rongyang lowered her voice and said, "Zhu Ziyu is dead!"
Cui Xu's action of wiping sweat suddenly stopped: "Where is Mingyue?"
"It's gone..." Princess Rongyang grabbed Cui Xu's wrist, "Cui Xu, what do you want to do?"
Cui Xu gently pulled out his hand and squeezed the hilt tightly: "What else can I do, of course it is to find someone!"
"But—" Princess Rongyang made her final decision, with an inexplicable tone, "Who killed Zhu Ziyu?"
On the wedding night, the bridegroom died and the bride disappeared. Anyone would suspect that the death of the bridegroom officer was related to the bride.
Princess Rongyang suddenly felt a little strange to the generous and sensible daughter in her impression.
Did Zhu Ziyu kill Mingyue? Her heart trembled and she didn't dare to think again.
Cui Xu's voice sounded: "Mingyue has followed me for several years, and it is not a problem to deal with one or two ordinary people in leisure."
"Cui Xu, what do you mean?"
Cui Xu fixedly looked at Princess Rongyang, with a calm tone: "I mean no matter what the truth is, I will find someone before talking."
Princess Rongyang sighed.
Cui Xu was right, no matter who killed someone, Mingyue would find it back.
"I'll take someone to find Mingyue first, you go into the palace and report this to the emperor."
Princess Rongyang was taken aback: "You want to tell Brother Huang?"
"Sooner or later, I can't keep it." Cui Xu took a word and strode out.
When Emperor Jingming left the court, he heard Pan Hai report to Princess Rongyang for seeing him.
Is there another moth?
Emperor Jingming recalled it seriously.
Yesterday Mingyue and Zhu Ziyu's wedding was said to be very smooth.
"Please go to the Royal Study Room, the princess."
When Emperor Jingming returned to the imperial study, she couldn't even sit down, and Princess Rongyang walked in.
"Meet the emperor brother."
"What's wrong?" Seeing Princess Rongyang's red eyes, Emperor Jingming started to feel pain.
"Brother Emperor, Mingyue is gone..."
Emperor Jingming subconsciously sat up straight: "What?"
Princess Rongyang knelt down: "The minister sister is here to plead."
Emperor Jingming simply got up and walked over: "What please? You get up and make things clear first!"
Princess Rongyang got up and briefly talked about the situation.
"You mean that the moon is gone, and Zhu Ziyu is dead?" Emperor Jingming trembled.
He said that there was another moth, and it was true!
Princess Rongyang nodded slowly.
Emperor Jingming closed his eyes, opened his eyes after a long time, his dark eyes made it hard to see his emotions.
"What do you think of the emperor sister?"
Princess Rongyang Hyun Ran wanted to cry: "Brother Emperor, the minister sister is very worried, it must be the gangster who broke in and killed Zhu Ziyu and took Mingyue away——"
"Does the Zhu family know about this?"
"I don't know yet."
"I ordered Zhen Shicheng to investigate this case, and Jinlinwei Commander Han Ran assisted Cui Xu to find Mingyue..."
Princess Rongyang's face changed slightly: "Brother Emperor, is it inappropriate to let people from the government intervene?"
The matter of Mingyue and Zhu Ziyu is considered to be a private matter of the royal family. Once it is found out, it will affect the reputation of the royal family.
Emperor Jingming didn't care: "The secret investigation is. Zhen Shicheng knows it."
The old guy has a case to investigate, much better than some people who claim to be loyal but always add to the chaos.
Princess Rongyang had to answer.
Emperor Jingming glanced at her, and exhorted: "Don't say much about the empress, but let the Zhu family breathe quietly."
"Brother Huang, don't worry, Sister Chen knows."
"The emperor sister, go and work."
When Princess Rongyang left, Emperor Jingming stood by the window silent for a long time.
"Pan Hai——"
"The servant is here."
"You said the left eye jumped for money, the right eye jumped for disaster, or the other way around?"
Pan Hai repeatedly wiped his sweat: "The emperor, slave servant..."
"Finally, people are not liking, and all eyes jump."
Pan Hai quietly breathed a sigh of relief.
If the emperor embarrassed him with this kind of problem, life would be impossible.
"Pan Hai, who do you think Zhu Ziyu would kill?"
Pan Hai: "..."
"The emperor, Liu Chu Hua Zhai has published a new storybook. Would you like to read it?"
...
Zhen Shicheng received the secret decree, and suddenly his spirit came.
There hasn’t been any decent case in Beijing recently, and the Shuntian Mansion has been dealing with trivial matters all day long: Some vines of Wang San’s family climbed to Li Si’s house, and the melons were picked by Li Si’s wife; Zhao Liu’s pig was lost. I was picked up and cannot be returned; the daughter-in-law of the Sun family eloped with others...
Zhen Shicheng felt that he was busy growing mushrooms.
There was another important case, or one death and one disappearance!
The only thing that made Zhen Shicheng dissatisfied was that because the victim had a special identity, he needed to conceal his identity investigation and not disturb his neighbors.
This is not difficult for Zhen Shicheng, and soon disguised as a visitor, the female widow followed behind him with the appearance of a little maid carrying a gift box.
As for what is in the gift box, only you know.
After careful investigation and cross-examination, Zhen Shicheng was quite disappointed.
The case is much simpler than he thought.
"Zhen Shicheng, would you like to see you?" Emperor Jing Ming has had more headaches recently, and he heard the report when he closed his eyes and calmed down.
It didn't take long for Zhen Shicheng to appear in front of Emperor Jingming.
"What did Zhen Aiqing find out?"
When she mentioned what she was best at, Zhen Shicheng was not humble, and immediately said: "Report to the emperor, the situation has been ascertained."
Emperor Jingming's eyes burned: "Zhen Aiqing talk about it."
"After checking, the bridegroom officer should have been stabbed to death by the bride from behind."
The jade ornament that Emperor Jingming was playing with almost fell off: "Is Zhen Aiqing joking?"
Can his quiet and elegant niece kill a big man?
Zhen Shicheng's face straightened and said solemnly: "The minister never laughed or laughed when investigating the case. The minister ordered you to examine the body of the groom official. From the direction and depth of the wound, combined with the blood stains on the bed, it can be inferred that the bride was pressed by the groom official. He raised his dagger at the bridegroom when he was under him, and stabbed it in..."
Emperor Jingming's expression was very wonderful, and for a while, he asked with difficulty: "Zhen Aiqing meant that the bride killed the bridegroom officer and then escaped in fear of crime?"
Zhen Shicheng nodded: "The emperor said so."
