304 Chapter 2: reliving corpse (10000-word chapter, please) _3
“His Highness the Crown Prince has been confined in his chambers, awaiting His Majesty’s decision.”
“Send it to the court of judicial review.” Emperor Yuan jing’s sharp gaze swept across the three of them. I want to get the results within three days.
“Your Majesty, this is a serious matter. I’m afraid three days won’t do.” The official of the Supreme Court said.
“I will only give you three days.” Emperor Yuan jing’s face was cold.
Your Majesty, the Duke of Wei has many talented people under him who have solved many major cases. Why don’t you hand this case over to the Imperial Censorate? ” The Minister of Justice suggested.
The official of the Supreme Court felt that it was very good.
“Talented people, who is the Minister?” Wei Yuan calmly looked at the two ministers and then at Emperor yuanjing, “”The capable people have already died in Yunzhou.”
The Minister of Justice and the chief of the Supreme Court looked at each other. The gong that had repeatedly solved strange cases was broken in Yunzhou. A few days ago, the two of them had been secretly cheering.
Now that the person who had thrown the blame was gone, the Minister of Justice and the chief of the Supreme Court suddenly felt complicated.
Consort Fu was dead. She was suspected to have been humiliated by the Crown Prince. In her shame and anger, she jumped down from the attic, broke through the guardrail, and fell to her death.
The case went like this-this afternoon, the Crown Prince returned from drinking with noble Consort Chen, and for some reason, he went to Fu Fei’s Palace.
Soon after, Consort Fu’s unkempt clothes caused her to fall to her death.
This matter not only concerned the face of the imperial family, but once the crown prince’s crime was confirmed, it would involve the struggle for the country’s Foundation. The interests involved behind it were too complicated. The chief of the Supreme Court and the Ministry of Justice were not willing to take this hot potato.
Emperor Yuan jing frowned. He knew that Wei Yuan was talking about Xu Qi ‘an, the gong who died in Yunzhou. Usually, he only felt that the gong was an eyesore.
However, when there was a case, Emperor Yuan jing suddenly realized that the gong was actually very useful. It was such a pity to die.
“Bang!”
Emperor Yuan jing slammed the table and scolded, ” I have a lot of talented people. Without a Gong, can’t we solve the case? ”
“Your Majesty, please forgive me.”
The three ministers bowed at the same time.
At this moment, a eunuch hurriedly came to the Royal study. He did not cross the threshold and bowed his head.
This meant that there was something going on outside. Emperor Yuan jing’s position was directly facing the door, so he could see the eunuchs. However, it was up to Emperor Yuan jing to decide whether to summon them or not.
“What’s the matter outside?” Emperor Yuan jing’s tone was filled with suppressed anger.
The head eunuch hurriedly beckoned for the eunuch outside to come in.
“Reporting to Your Majesty, the princess of Lin an requests an audience.” The eunuch said.
For the princess of Lin an to come and see him at this moment, one did not need to think to know that it was for the matter of the Crown Prince.
Emperor Yuan jing pinched the space between his eyebrows. let her go back. I won’t see her for the next few days.
……
The eunuch accepted the order and went out to the Royal study. At the bottom of the high steps, Lin ‘an, who was draped in a red fox fur coat, with a round face and a charming and affectionate temperament, was waiting anxiously.
He was accompanied by two Palace maids.
“Second Princess, His Majesty isn’t here. You should go back.” The eunuch said in a low voice.
Lin ‘an bit his lip and stubbornly refused to leave.
She waited and waited outside the Imperial study. Not long after, the top figures of the three law divisions came out. The Minister of Justice exclaimed, ”
“Your Highness, it’s freezing. Don’t be stubborn. Take care of your precious body and don’t get infected by the cold wind.”
“When the snow melts, it’s the coldest. Your body can’t stand the cold.” What are you two doing? hurry up and bring His Highness back.”
Lin an shook his head and refused to leave.
The two Palace maids were caught in a dilemma.
Wei Yuan wrapped his robe around himself and walked in front of Lin ‘an. Her nose was red from the cold, but because of her fair skin, it was pink, which made her look cute.
“I have a few questions to ask Your Highness,” da Qing Yi said gently.
Wei Yuan was one of the few powerful officials who dared to call himself “me” in front of the royal family.
Lin an’s slightly dull eyes moved, ” Duke Wei, please speak.
“Do the princess and the crown Prince often go to noble Consort Chen’s place?”
“Brother Crown Prince and I often go to accompany Imperial mother.” Lin an sniffed.
“There’s also drinking?”
“There is.”
“Often drunk?”
“Not much, but brother Crown Prince is indeed a bit greedy.”
“Did you have any contact with Fu Fei in the past? Does the Crown Prince often go to other places in the harem?”
“Naturally, there is no such thing.” Lin an said loudly,”brother Crown Prince knows that he is not a di son and has always been careful. How could he do such a treasonous thing?.”
Wei Yuan bowed and turned to leave.
The Minister of Justice and the Minister of the Supreme Court followed.
The cold wind whistled. Lin ‘an shivered and bit her lips. Her shoulders were thin, and her red clothes were like fire. Against the White snow, the scene was beautiful and desolate.
This wait lasted for four hours.
His body gradually froze, his legs lost feeling, his lips turned blue, and Lin ‘an’s heart seemed to be frozen.
“What are you still doing here?” A familiar voice came from behind.
She turned her neck stiffly and looked back. It was the annoying huaiqing.
Huaiqing was dressed in a beautiful white Palace dress embroidered with beautiful plum blossoms. He was tall and slender, and his cold temperament blended perfectly with the White snow.
She was like an otherworldly fairy.
Although there was no bronze mirror, he knew that he was like a poor quail shivering in the cold wind.
The superiority was immediately determined.
“Are you here to laugh at me?” The framed man turned his head back in grievance, not letting his tears fall.
Huaiqing’s expression was cold as he looked at the two Palace maids.”How did you serve the second Prince? men, drag him away and beat him to death.”
“There!”
The guards behind huaiqing immediately stepped forward.
“Stop!” Lin ‘an turned back abruptly, intending to stop her, but she had overestimated herself. Her legs were frozen stiff, she staggered and fell to the ground.
