Chapter 171
Just as he was thinking about it, he suddenly heard Mu Ting ask him: "Does Ma Sizhi have any advice on the case of the eldest princess?"
Ha, sure enough. This Prince Mu was just pretending to look at the case file for so long.
He looked directly at Mu Ting: "Yesterday, Han Shaoqing led Xiaguan to the eldest princess's mansion to search. It was Xiaguan who personally searched out the five stones."
"Oh. That's it. However, I only saw in the case file that the Five Stone Powder was found from the eldest princess's residence, but it did not state that Ma Sizhi personally searched it out. I don't know where Ma Sizhi came from the eldest princess's residence. Five stones were found in one place? I have been to the eldest princess's mansion. The eldest princess's mansion occupies a large area. There are more than 100 houses in this place. Ma Sizhi only led more than 20 government officials. , it took half an hour to search out the five stones from the eldest princess’s mansion..."
A hint of a smile appeared on Mu Ting's face, and he praised: "Ma Sizhi is indeed the smartest official in Dali Temple."
She didn't know that Mu Ting was so sinister. Qin Xiangxiang almost couldn't hold it back and wanted to give Mu Ting a thumbs up.
Ma Sizhi's face darkened: "The official is indeed lucky. Most people don't care. These five stones are prohibited items in the imperial court, so the official guessed that the eldest princess would definitely put the five stones in a hidden place... "
Liao Haohai said calmly: "Ma Sizhi is really a master of calculation. He actually knew in advance that there would be five stones scattered in the eldest princess's mansion."
Ma Sizhi closed his mouth tightly.
But Mu Ting refused to let him go: "My prince was once fortunate enough to hear about a case where a judge was judged by a confused judge. I wonder if Ma Sizhi has ever heard of it? This case was actually caused by a gourd that attracted wealth. "
Ma Sizhi was still able to bear it: "Prince Mu is really well-informed, and the lower officials also heard about this case."
Mu Ting smiled slightly: "But it's still not as good as Ma Sizhi. By the way, I heard that Han Shaoqing fell down in the eldest princess's mansion last night and broke his leg. I wonder where in the eldest princess's mansion did Han Shaoqing fall? "
Han Shaoqing fell down the narrow stairs of the attic. The guards had gone elsewhere and did not hear his cry. If he hadn't climbed out dragging his broken leg, no one would have noticed.
A broken leg is a trivial matter. I heard that Han Shaoqing's face turned black.
Ma Sizhi didn't want to expose Han Shaoqing's shortcomings: "Han Shaoqing must have been in a hurry to capture the Di tribe, so he broke his leg."
Mu Ting looked at him and smiled again. Ma Sizhi also laughed.
"Speaking of Han Shaoqing..." Mu Ting glanced at the desk with his slender fingers, "How did Han Shaoqing know that there is a Di clan expert in the eldest princess's mansion?"
Ma Sizhi said nothing, and neither did Liao Haohai.
Mu Ting looked at Ma Sizhi again, and the smile on his face became even bigger: "Since Han Shaoqing has broken his leg, it must be inconvenient to come here. Then I'll trouble Ma Sizhi to go and ask Han Shaoqing how he knows how long he has grown. The princess’s mansion contains a masterpiece from the Di tribe.”
It turned out that he underestimated this person named Mu. Ma Sizhi gritted his teeth and thought in his heart, but still had a smile on his face: "I obey my order."
Ma Sizhi reluctantly walked out.
He was unwilling to give in. Before leaving, he glanced at one of the clerks. The clerk looked at his nose, nose, and heart, but did not respond to him.
sigh! A guy who is greedy for life and afraid of death.
Ma Sizhi walked away until no one could be seen, and Mu Ting asked Liao Haohai: "Does Liao Pingshi have any opinions on this case?"
Liao Haohai said: "Prince Mu has promoted him, I don't dare to do it, but I did find out something very interesting."
"Oh, Liao Pingshi, please tell me."
Liao Haohai said: "That day at the flower viewing party at the eldest princess's residence, Mrs. Ding, who confessed her love to Prince Mu, suddenly suffered a heart attack after returning home and died."
Mu Ting raised his eyebrows. He really didn't know about this. That young lady who looked very bold died like this?
Liao Haohai continued: "Everyone in the Ding family said that Mrs. Ding died of heart disease, but the official found that Mrs. Ding also took Wu Shi Powder that day. According to the doctor who treated Mrs. Ding, Mrs. Ding died of heart disease." My wife’s heart disease was well under control, but it was her consumption of Five Stone Powder that caused her heart disease and she was unable to recover.”
Qin Xiangxiang really didn't expect Mrs. Ding's matter. That day, she really thought that Mrs. Ding really liked Mu Ting, so she boldly showed her love in front of everyone.
But now, this may very well be an own goal. And it is very possible that Mrs. Ding is covering up for the Di tribe's Xizuo.
Mu Ting's expression was a little solemn. Madam Ding was so bold that day. He thought that the young lady in the capital was more bold than the young lady in Yanzhou, but he never thought that it was just a show.
What is the reason that makes Mrs. Ding do this at the risk of her own life?
Liao Haohai shook his head: "The population of the Ding family is extremely tight, and there has been no progress in lowering the official position for the time being. But the only thing that is known is that Mrs. Ding had previously liked Luo Dalangjun, the eldest son of the Luoji Restaurant. And Luo Dalangjun was a man with no skills. A scholar with the power to bind a chicken."
And Mu Ting is Kong Wu's powerful martial artist.
"Although Mrs. Ding likes Mr. Luo Dalang, she cannot marry Mr. Luo Dalang because of her heart disease. Therefore, although Mrs. Ding is almost twenty-nine years old, she has not yet been engaged. The Ding family was originally prepared to keep it. She was raised at home.”
Mu Ting was silent for a moment and asked Liao Haohai: "Besides this matter, do you have any other clues?"
Liao Haohai shook his head: "There is no progress yet."
"Then I have to trouble Liao Pingshi to continue the investigation." Mu Ting said, motioning Zhu Sanlang to hang up all the portraits of the suspicious entourage in the eldest princess's mansion painted by Princess Huizhen.
"Has Liao Pingshi ever seen these people in the capital?"
Liao Haohai focused his eyes and looked at the portrait carefully: "No. Prince Mu, is this a portrait carefully made by the Di people?"
Mu Ting nodded: "Yes, when I was in Yanzhou, I often dealt with the Di people. Now when I came to the capital, I found a lot of familiar faces. I wanted the painter to draw their portraits so that they could be hunted down easily."
Liao Haohai hesitated and asked, "Does Prince Mu have any clues?"
Mu Ting shook his head: "No. But if it's convenient for Liao Pingshi, can you accompany me to the home of the high school prime minister?"
"Of course it's convenient!" Liao Haohai agreed quickly.
Although it was because of Qin Wanwan that he worked hard and became the judge of Dali Temple. But now, he really wants to find out the truth and clear the wrongs of those who have been wronged.
Mu Ting looked at Qin Xiangxiang: "Mrs. Qin, would you like one?"
When he saw Qin Xiangxiang, his eyes suddenly lit up: "I want it!"
Chen Ze frowned, but finally said nothing.
As everyone walked out, Qin Xiangxiang followed Mu Ting with his eyes. But seeing that he stood up naturally and there was nothing wrong with his walking, she couldn't help but feel relieved.
Gao Jianshuo also lived near Xiangguo Temple. From the outside, it didn't look like the residence of a third-rank official. Under the weather eaves of the courtyard gate, two old angry wind lanterns hang. Outside the small courtyard gate, there were no guards guarding the gate.
Liao Haohai said in a low voice: "The high school prime minister is in charge of the Yushitai. I heard that he has a breeze with his sleeves, so no one can find anything wrong."
He went up and knocked on the door. After knocking for a long time, he heard an old voice saying: "Who is outside?"
Liao Haohai said loudly: "I am Liao Haohai, the judge of Dali Temple. I have taken the liberty to come here in Ji Ye and want to visit the Prime Minister of Gao Gao."
"It turns out to be Liao Pingshi. Liao Pingshi is interested. Our master has taken the medicine and is already sleeping peacefully. Liao Pingshi, please come back another day!"
The door was not even opened and he was declined.
Mu Ting stepped forward and knocked on the door again.
The old voice inside didn't have any impatience, but his voice was a little louder: "If Liao Pingshi is in an emergency, you can contact other people on the Yushitai."
"I am Mu Ting, son of Marquis Wude. I have taken the liberty to come here this time to ask about Prime Minister Gao Gao's assassination last night. If Prime Minister Gao Gao has already rested, I can wait outside the door for him to wake up."
This is harsh enough.
Only the sound of irregular footsteps was heard in the courtyard. After a while, the door opened from the inside, and a face full of ravines stuck out. A pair of cloudy eyes flickered, looking at everyone: "Who is this?" Prince Mu?"
