"The ingredients in this bowl of medicine are very complex, and you can't tell much by just analyzing it by smell." Lin Youxie put the bowl of medicinal soup into the storage box: "I will take it back and do more detailed research."
Jiang Wang naturally believed Lin Youxie's judgment.
It was hard for him to forget the way Lin Youxie silently prepared the medicine. The feeling of calmly enduring the pain was, to a certain extent, similar to Jiang Wuqi. Lin Youxie could make his own medicine to suppress phobia, of course.
He has conducted in-depth research on drugs.
Zheng Shangming didn't seem to be surprised. He acquiesced to Lin Youxie and put away the bowl of medicinal soup without expressing any opinions. He only patrolled the study room with cautious eyes.
Jiang Wang was standing at the door. Behind him was the bright skylight, and in front of him were two Qingpai head catchers who were busy with their own affairs.
The study is silent, but there is also a unique language describing the activities of a proud man.
Everyone who visits tries to find that special language to communicate with this study.
Including Jiang Wang himself.
His eyes fell on the two green cards, but they were distracted. He thought about a lot in that moment.
After taking a calligraphy and a book back that day, I also experienced Jiang Wuqi's three-day funeral.
This study has really not changed at all.
It seemed that no one came in during the intervening days.
He couldn't help but think...
Is Feng Gu simply mourning Jiang Wuqi and not wanting to touch the arrangements he made during his lifetime, or does he want to leave something behind?
If there is any interesting information to be found in this study.
Was it left by Jiang Wuqi or by Feng Gu?
"Feng Gu committed suicide."
Lin Youxie's voice suddenly came to his ears, making Jiang Wang stunned for a moment.
He didn't know why Lin Youxie deliberately avoided Zheng Shangming and communicated quietly, but he was still shocked by the information in this sentence and couldn't help but look over.
"Be natural." Lin Youxie's voice said in his ears.
Jiang Wang then looked at Zheng Shangming naturally and fulfilled his "supervision" duty.
I don't quite understand why Lin Youxie seems to trust him more than Zheng Shangming, who has a good reputation. But Jiang Wang believes in Lin Youxie's analysis. His ability and sense of responsibility are very intuitive.
"How can you see it?" Jiang Wang asked via voice transmission.
Lin Youxie's voice continued: "Although he deliberately misled people and wanted people to think that his suicide was a perfect arrangement of the scene by the murderer. He did indeed do a good job. But it is easy to deceive others, but it is difficult to deceive yourself. He
The corpse told me that he indeed committed suicide."
Jiang Wang recalled Lin Youxie's "famous saying" that "a corpse is made up of clues."
Completely strip away the complex relationship behind the corpse, and only get the answer from the corpse itself.
She must have studied Feng Gu's body more than once, so she could be so sure.
Just as Jiang Wang was about to speak, another voice came from his ears.
"My father is coming soon."
Zheng Shangming's voice.
At this time, the son of the Captain of Bei Ya was standing in front of the huge bookshelf opposite the desk, looking at it inch by inch... Just like Lin Youxie was also carefully inspecting Jiang Wuqi's chair.
It's hard to believe that he was also secretly talking to Jiang Wang Chuanyin.
Just three people actually opened up two "battlefields" for private chatting.
It is obvious that although Zheng Shangming and Lin Youxie get along well with each other, they are not close friends.
Zheng Shangming is the only son of Zheng Shi, and of course he is also a direct descendant of the emperor. He represents the emperor to a certain extent, and of course, he also has the interests of his Zheng family in the inspection office.
Where is Lin Youxie?
Does she represent the four declining Qingpai families, or herself?
"Why did he do this?"
Jiang Wang first sent a message to Lin Youxie, and then sent a message to Zheng Shangming: "Congratulations."
Although this kind of congratulatory words made it a bit strange to be sneaky, but faced with the topic that Zheng Shangming suddenly opened, there really was nothing else to say.
In particular, what Lin Youxie was saying at the moment was really exciting, so he just ignored Zheng Shangming and settled the matter.
Lin Youxie's voice continued to ring in his ears: "Feng Gu was very aware of Beiya's ability to handle cases. He knew that it was difficult to disguise without leaving traces, and that after his death, he would no longer be able to control anyone. So he simply gave up on his own
He had tampered with the body and simply hanged himself. With only a meaningful suicide note, he created a perfect illusion of murder. As for his purpose...his death will ultimately lead people to suspect something.
, that’s what his purpose was. He wanted to use his death to let Beiya investigate other things."
Zheng Shangming sent a message almost at the same time, and he got straight to the point: "Brother Jiang, are you interested in the position of Captain of Beiya? Your current cultivation level is just right. If you want to sit in this position, we will fully support you."
He didn't say what he wanted in return. For him to come forward to talk to Jiang Wang about this matter was to have set conditions. The Zheng family supports Jiang Wang now, so of course they will also support Zheng Shangming when Jiang Wang resigns.
Jiang Wang was silent for a while.
Lin Youxie and Zheng Shangming both continued what they were doing. No one urged them, and they both felt that Jiang Wang was thinking seriously...
Jiang Wang was indeed thinking, but he was not just thinking about one problem.
He was communicating privately with two people at the same time, and the conversation was so dense with information that it was difficult for him to figure out the context at once.
The first is the problem of Lin Youxie.
Jiang Wang sent a message and replied: "What do you think...Feng Gu wants Beiya to investigate?"
Then there is what Zheng Shangming said.
It must be said honestly that no one would be tempted by the position of Captain of Beiya.
In terms of job rank, it is only the fourth rank. But the power that this position can actually control is close to the big shots in the Political Hall and the Military Hall!
This official position, whose full name is "Inspection Captain of the Capital Inspection Office and Inspection Envoy of the Capital City", has the function of governing the country's Qingpai and patrolling the Eastern Region without hindrance. With the addition of the four words "directly under the emperor", what can happen
Political energy defies simple description.
It can be said to be a model of low status and power, and the highest peak that a Wailou monk can reach in the Qi Kingdom!
It is no secret that Zheng Shi is about to leave office. At his age and condition, if he does not advance to the Divine Presence, his future practice will be affected.
I don't know how many people in the government and the public are eyeing this position. The last time Zhang Weiyu suddenly attacked Jiang Wang in the court and personally led a team to Qingyang Town to investigate, this is a clear example.
Many people have directly regarded Jiang Wang as a competitor. With Chong Xuan Sheng's reminder, Jiang Wang was not without expectations.
He just didn't expect that Zheng Shangming would suddenly mention this matter under such circumstances, and express it so directly.
After thinking about it, I decided to discuss it with Chong Xuan Sheng. Chuan Yin replied: "This is too sudden. I need to think about it."
Lin Youxie's voice sounded at this time, and he analyzed methodically: "Feng Gu was a member of the palace of Jiang Wuqi's biological mother Lei Guifei. After the death of Lei Guifei, he turned to serve Jiang Wuqi. Neng
What else could make him risk his life to push forward the investigation...what else could it be?"
"Of course." Zheng Shangming's voice came back: "But if you are interested in the post of Beiya Captain, today's case is a good opportunity."
A message comes from here, a message goes from there.
If Jiang Wang hadn't possessed the state of being a sravaka and had quite good control over the voice, it would have been really difficult for him to cope with it.
But the shock in my heart is really hard to describe!
He recalled what Feng Gu said in front of the wall on the day of Jiang Wuqi's funeral.
"His Highness has got what he wants, but what I, this old dog, want has not been realized yet."
Everything is connected...
Feng Gu risked his life to create the illusion of being murdered. He wanted to restart the investigation of the assassination of Concubine Lei in the 38th year of Yuanfeng and find out the real culprit!
He claimed to be just an old dog, but after Jiang Wuqi's death, he no longer had any scruples and was determined to tear off a piece of his enemy's flesh and blood!
Jiang Wang suppressed the turmoil in his heart and said to Lin Youxie via Chuanyin: "So, there must be clues left in the Changsheng Palace that can directly connect to the assassination of Concubine Lei. Is that right?"
Another message came to Zheng Shangming: "What opportunity?"
Lin Youxie's voice came back quickly: "There is no other explanation. I hope you can help me. I need to hold this clue in my hand."
"Why?" Jiang Wang asked back.
No wonder Lin Youxie wanted to transmit the message privately, making it mysterious. It turned out that she wanted to leave Zheng Shangming aside and grasp this clue alone. But why did she think that she would help her instead of Zheng Shangming, who was more friendly with her?
Zheng Shangming's voice also sounded at this time: "Because the background of this case is very complicated, far from being as simple as it appears now, and involves many issues. The future Captain of Beiya will need to show the ability to deal with complex relationships, and more
We must show our attitude to the emperor!"
During the communication with Lin Youxie, Jiang Wang had realized how complicated the case of Feng Gu's death was. Therefore, it was difficult to understand why Zheng Shangming took over the case and why Zheng Shi agreed to let Zheng Shangming take charge.
It is difficult for the person in charge of such an extremely complicated and important case involving palace matters to escape unscathed. Historical tragedies are not uncommon, and smart people should stay away from them.
The death of Concubine Lei has been unresolved for so many years. How complicated is the involvement?
The countless entanglements behind it are as straight as the deep sea. Thinking about it makes people shudder. How many people have to drown before they are finished?
Zheng Shangming had all the background to avoid this whirlpool, but he stepped in!
how so?
As soon as Zheng Shangming said this, he completely understood.
The position of Captain Bei Ya was only responsible to the Emperor, and the only thing needed was the Emperor's trust.
Zheng Shangming took the initiative to take charge of this case to show his loyalty to the emperor. Like his father, he was only loyal to the emperor and was not afraid of offending anyone or even being broken into pieces.
Similarly, Jiang Wang must have the courage to bite anyone before he can be recognized by the emperor and take the first step to sit on the throne of Beiya Captain.
So Zheng Shangming said that this case is an opportunity.
This is indeed an opportunity... a fascinating and dangerous opportunity.
"I probably understand..." Jiang Wang Chuanming responded to Zheng Shangming: "I'll think about it again."
Lin Youxie's voice sounded again: "Because... before His Highness Eleven died, Changsheng Palace had always taken good care of me."
Jiang Wang frowned and thought, what's the reason?
He replied: "If it is as you said, there are clues like that in the Palace of Eternal Life. What's the difference between holding it in your hand and holding it in Zheng Shangming's hand? If we just want the truth, let's witness it together, isn't it?
Isn’t it clearer?”
Lin Youxie had already finished checking Jiang Wuqi's bookcase. He stood up and walked towards the bookshelf with calligraphy and paintings. At the same time, he sent a message to Jiang Wang: "An hour before Feng Gu committed suicide, someone placed something in front of my door.
thing."
For some reason, when Jiang Wang heard this description, he immediately thought of what Li Yougui once said...
After Lin Kuang died, someone threw his body directly in front of three-year-old Lin Youxie, causing her to suffer from phobia. As a descendant of the Qingpai family, she could not face the corpse...
"What is it?" Jiang Wang asked.
Lin Youxie's fingers traced across the bookshelf, and the voice that came over was very calm: "A knife used for dissecting corpses... It has my father's unique mark on it. It is an artifact he lost back then."
Jiang Wang's hair stood up instantly.
Feng Gu's death is far more complicated than imagined. Not only is it possible to be involved in the case of Concubine Lei, but it could also be involved in Lin Kuang, a famous arrester of that generation?
"You mean..."
"It was because of my investigation into Concubine Lei's case that my father died and his reputation was wiped out." Lin Youxie said quietly: "And this is what I have been pursuing for so many years."
Lin Kuang's death in the past years was kept secret by those who knew about it.
Was it because he was involved in the secret palace case of the assassination of Concubine Lei?
If Lin Youxie's statement was only speculative at the beginning, after combining it with Lin Kuang's dissecting knife in the past, the target of Feng Gu's suicide has become clearer.
The death of the eunuch chief eunuch in the Changsheng Palace was already a sensational case in itself.
And the reason behind it is even more terrifying. It traces back seventeen years of history to the thirty-eighth year of Yuanfeng. It involves the death of Concubine Lei Guifei, Jiang Wuqi's death from cold poison... and the famous arrester Lin of a generation.
Kuang's death!
This is a major case that can shock the entire Qi State!
To put it more seriously, its development is likely to affect the political structure of the entire Da Qi Empire.
Just think about it, how many people in the entire Qi Kingdom can kill Concubine Lei Guifei and suppress so many things?
Which one is not superior?
No wonder Feng Gu said in his suicide note, "As an old man with a short life, death is not a pity, so the coffin will be closed."
He knew that his death would probably not make any waves.
This is just his last effort.
There is no other way but to die.
"You don't believe Zheng Shangming?" Jiang Wang asked hard.
Lin Youxie said: "I don't trust anyone in the inspection house."
That's right. Lin Kuang must have found something back then, and at the same time, there must be someone behind the scenes in the inspection house. Otherwise, how could a well-known and powerful arrester like Lin Kuang die suddenly?
His death was unclear.
That's why Uriel, who had a close relationship with Lin Kuang and was known as the North and the South, resigned directly...
In this matter, how could Lin Youxie dare to trust the people in the inspection house?
"But you actually believe me?" Jiang Wang asked.
"Because you are really a trustworthy person." Lin Youxie said.
She spoke very calmly.
But for such a person who was wary of the entire Qi State Inspection Office and even the officialdom because of his father's death, the trust she gave him was really heavy!
