Chapter 109 Suspicious identity, investigating the Ministry of War (Congratulations BLG!)
At this time, the corpse had been picked up, and the Qianniu Guards said they were unlucky and hid far away.
Throw the body aside and expose it to the hot sun.
His Majesty is about to get married in autumn. The Imperial Guards are already busy with things, but they are unlucky enough to encounter something like this. They stomped their feet, touched the trees, and started pouting repeatedly.
Seeing that the corpse was thrown there face down, Yu Qiansi felt really pitiful, so he broke off a branch and planned to cover it with green shade, at least to protect it from the sun.
Unexpectedly, as soon as I got closer, I saw bright red marks on the back of my neck that had been whitened and swollen by the soak.
It looks like a red birthmark, which has been enlarged several times due to the swelling of the body. It is half hidden under the collar and is very conspicuous.
Her expression changed, and she threw the branch aside and squatted down to check.
Her sudden reaction attracted the Qianniu Guards who were waiting aside. Ma Jian was also a little puzzled and came over to check.
The clothes that had been soaked in the pool for a long time were extremely slippery, and the body was unusually heavy. She was weak and could not easily turn the body over even with all her strength.
Before she could think of a countermeasure, she heard Ma Jian, who had just approached, let out a weird growl, pushed her away, and turned over the body in a split second before anyone could react.
A face that alternated between blue and white, and was unbearably swollen, suddenly fell into everyone's eyes.
The people around him took a few steps back, and Yu Anning, who had just recovered somewhat, turned around and retched.
Before Yu Qiansi had time to react to the shock that the drowned face brought to her, she noticed something unusual about Ma Jian.
He held the terrible corpse tightly in his arms, shaking it inexplicably as if he had lost his mind. He opened his mouth and wanted to scream, but it seemed as if someone had strangled his throat, and he could only utter incoherent words.
The sound of distinguishing, his face turned pale, was louder than the corpse being "protected" in his arms, as if he was possessed by a water ghost.
Those Qianniu guards were all horrified: "What happened to the captain?..."
Not far away, Yu Anning naturally saw this scene, and she let out a short and sharp cry.
Yu Qiansi turned her head and saw that the shock on her face had not completely dissipated, her whole body was wide-eyed and she had fainted.
Yu Qiansi quickly turned around to catch her, but her whole heart fell deeply into the endless abyss, just like the unconscious Yu Anning.
The manager of the Ministry of Internal Affairs arrived belatedly, accompanied by a nanny in brown clothes.
Originally, the death of a palace maid did not require the intervention of the head of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, but His Majesty is about to get married recently, so naturally he cannot neglect it.
The nanny came straight towards Yu Qiansi, bowed respectfully, and presented a roster with both hands.
"Master Jade, this old slave has compiled a list for you on the orders of the young master."
Yu Qiansi was still half-hugging Yu Anning, who was in a daze. The flames were clearly blazing, and she was holding someone in her arms, so it should be even hotter.
But she only felt cold from the bottom of her heart. This booklet came by chance, but it was not by chance.
He lowered his eyes and smiled, but his voice was cold: "It's already too late."
The grandma was puzzled when she heard what she said, and she didn't dare to ask questions. She just lowered her head and waited respectfully.
Yu Qiansi handed over Yu Anning in her arms to the maid of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, stood up and looked at the source of everything.
Ma Jian still hugged the body tightly and refused to let go. The people from the Ministry of Internal Affairs couldn't separate the body from the body. This scene was really weird.
"Mommy, who should this person be?"
The nanny suppressed her nausea and stepped forward to check. She bowed and said in return, "It should be Xiaodie from Qingquan Palace. Her name is on the register. She has been missing for seven or eight days."
The harem of the saint is vacant, and Qingquan Palace is one of the remote places that is not inconspicuous. The maids there only do simple daily cleaning work. If it were not for the recent reorganization of the inner court due to His Majesty's wedding, they would have been dealing with the registered palaces.
People are sorting it out, and it will take some time to put together such a booklet in a short time.
Yu Qiansi turned to look at the frightened Qianniu Guards on the side, and ordered in a cold voice: "Are you all thinking about losing your head?"
This sentence made everyone smart and responded.
This place is too close to the front court, and a lot of commotion has already occurred. No matter how weird the current situation is, they can no longer let Ma Jian be like this, otherwise they will all suffer.
While they were trying to pull Ma Jian apart, Yu Qiansi took out a firework signal from his arms, twirled it gently, and threw it into the sky.
The dazzling red light and smoke gathered above everyone's heads, adding to the scorching heat in the room.
It is absolutely necessary to do this in the palace confinement.
At this moment, I am alone and weak, and it is impossible for the imperial guards to obey my orders. If Ma Jian is taken away by others, the matter will be difficult to handle. We must take advantage of these brainless Qianniu Guards before they come to their senses.
, take the first step to hold Ma Jian in your own hands.
They also arrived in time.
When all the Imperial Guards had just gathered, they arrived.
The fireworks signal just now belonged to the Tixing Division, and the guards at the palace gate naturally saw it. Just when I didn't know what to do, Deming came to greet me, took Yaoguang, and came with the wind and Boyi.
.
It happened that the Qianniu Guards, with great effort, separated their captain from the horrific-looking corpse.
Ma Jian is already in a semi-mad state.
Yu Qiansi knew that her formation was a bit big and would certainly alarm Yuchen Palace, but this was exactly her purpose.
Just as he was about to explain, he saw Deming smiling broadly.
"Master Jade, Your Majesty has given orders. No matter what you do, you have your reasons for doing so. Your Majesty has given you full power over the two current cases, and naturally he trusts you wholeheartedly."
This sentence was neither too big nor too small, but it could reach the ears of everyone present. The guards dispersed after hearing the words.
Yu Qiansi solemnly knelt down and thanked His Majesty for his grace.
Deming then smiled and said goodbye.
As usual, even the hair is polite and thoughtful.
From the beginning to the end, he never glanced at the messy people present, and the corpse that fell in his eyes did not seem to cause him any discomfort.
Yu Qian nodded and glared. Sui Feng and Boyi immediately took over the unconscious Ma Jian. The other one ordered people from the Ministry of Internal Affairs to collect the body and take him to Yizhuang with him.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! The Qianniu Guards also came to their senses at this time and noticed the abnormality.
"Master Jade, why did you take our captain away?"
"I was ordered by Your Majesty to thoroughly investigate the case of the princess' suicide. Ma Jian was closely related to the matter, so he was taken away by me to assist in the investigation and trial."
"Wait a minute!" Someone said unconvinced: "We were all there at the beginning, and Mr. Yu also went to check. It's impossible for the captain to kill the princess. Even if you let him cooperate with the investigation, you have to wait until he is conscious, right?"
Taking advantage of someone's danger, could it be that he couldn't find the truth and was planning to find a scapegoat?
Then they will never agree!
Ma Jian was a man of few words on weekdays, but he was always kind to his brothers. He had a close relationship with Lin'an and was the person least likely to kill the princess.
"If you have any questions, you can go to the imperial court and ask His Majesty."
The attitude of "Who do you think you are?" is really too deceiving.
But Yu Qiansi didn't intend to waste any more words with them.
She turned to the general manager of the Ministry of Internal Affairs: "Father-in-law, I'm afraid this body is also related to the princess case. I want to take it away together."
After listening to Deming's words just now, the people in the palace who were accustomed to following the wind naturally had nothing to say.
He quickly responded and found two strong eunuchs to come forward to help.
After that, he simply ignored the Qianniu Guard and left with one person and one corpse.
And those Qianniu Guards were too angry and dared not speak out, so they could only let them go.
After leaving the palace, Yu Qiansi ordered Yaoguang to send the body to Yizhuang, and asked Boyi to take Ma Jian to the backyard of the Criminal Division and imprison him, and ordered Suifeng to go with him to the Ministry of War.
Yao Guang took the order and left, but Sui Feng was still chirping.
"Is something wrong?" Yu Qiansi raised his eyebrows impatiently.
"Sir, after I touched the body just now, I have been feeling uncomfortable. It must have been haunted by some evil spirit. Why don't I take this Ma Jian to the punishment department and then go to the temple to listen to scriptures to get rid of the bad luck?
Let Boyi go to the Ministry of War with you."
After that, he deliberately looked listless.
Yu Qiansi snorted coldly, not bothering to expose him: "How can just listening to the scriptures be enough? I will give you a day off to copy the Diamond Sutra a hundred times to get rid of bad luck!"
After saying that, he raised his feet and left. Boyi pushed Ma Jian to Suifeng, nodded to express his thanks, and followed Yu Qiansi's footsteps to leave.
Sui Feng was left alone, messy in the wind, wanting to cry but without tears.
Standing in front of the gate of the Ministry of War, Yu Qian sighed silently. This was the third fire that she had encountered recently.
Can't these people come up with some innovative ideas? Besides setting fires, can't they think of other ways to erase the evidence?
After being depressed for a long time, he walked towards the place where the fire broke out and asked Boyi: "What does Zifangsi do?"
He was as calm as ever, not sure if he still remembered what he said when he was drunk yesterday, or if he had already forgotten it.
Boyi smiled with a self-deprecating smile: "The Ministry of War's Fang Division is where the maps are stored."
The sage also mentioned the destruction of the map of the capital city.
"Is the map of the capital important?"
The two of them entered the yard where the fire had been extinguished. It was filled with moisture and mixed with choking smoke.
Wuhou Pu and Jin Wuwei were on duty at the side. They had received orders and were waiting for them to investigate.
Boyi reminded her to pay attention to her steps, and then said slowly: "Actually, I don't understand why the map of the capital is so important."
"The defense plan will not be marked on the map. What's more, the military garrison in central Beijing is different from other places. There are no military garrison, but a few fixed camps. Even if there are only these few camps, the garrison and defense settings
It will basically change every month. These really important military defense arrangements are all in the hands of His Majesty. Even if someone takes the trouble to take away the map, it is just to know more about the roads, mountains, rivers and terrain. If there is no large-scale attack, the defenses of Beijing and Zhou are enough to cover the ground in an instant.
Catch all the enemies in one fell swoop."
When it comes to "Ministry of War" and "Map", everyone will naturally think of these, and Boyi did not hide his secrets and explained them in detail.
A Jinwu guard who had been guarding here since the fire last night reported: "Master Yu, after we put out the fire, we got the order and waited for you to come. We did not move the scene at all. We discovered it in time last night. Although the fire was huge, it did not cause any damage.
The main body of the house is still safe inside, but you two should still be careful."
Yu Qian nodded in thanks, Boyi opened the door and walked into the scene which was not a mess.
