Lu Bing took the order and left without hesitation, without even making eye contact with anyone before leaving.
In fact, even if he wanted to communicate, no one would respond to him.
Huang Jin held the two jade pendants as if he were holding his own head, working diligently and not showing off his dignity.
After Yan Song finished his role as the detective, he also quietly stepped aside. His expression was full of fear, confusion and regret, which vividly expressed the attitude of an elder when something bad happened between a younger generation.
Xiao Feng looked at Jiajing with concern, as if he was not too concerned about the matter itself, but more concerned about Jiajing's condition. He also took the initiative to walk over and add a piece of ambergris to the incense burner for Huang Jin who had no time to think about it, while muttering something softly.
The voice was very soft, so soft that only Jiajing, who was the closest, could barely hear it: "I have worked so hard to give birth to a son, which is pitiful for the hearts of parents in the world."
Jiajing's slightly closed eyes opened slightly and he repeated it involuntarily.
These two sentences seemed ordinary, but the more he chewed them, the more flavorful they became. There was actually a layer of moisture in his eyes.
Suddenly seeing the concern on Xiao Feng's face, he felt something in his heart: Everyone else was calculating the impact of this important event, but he was concerned about my inner feelings. I guess junior brother is afraid that my Taoist heart will be unstable.
But how thorough are the two lines of my junior brother's poem? I am devoted to cultivating Taoism, but I don't even see my sons. People think that I really have no father-son affection.
I also thought that my Taoist mind was stable and I was not burdened by the worldly world. But when it comes to times like this, I can't completely calm down.
No matter who I like more, after all, both of them are my sons!
Jiajing probably doesn't know what kind of person the author of these two poems is.
Even though she is regarded as a representative of a hard-hearted person, her various signs indicate that she still tried her best to make her son understand her.
Jiajing's heart of stone is one level lower than hers, so Jiajing is naturally unable to resist this sentence written in her state of mind.
Jiajing originally planned to solve the problem violently as soon as King Yu arrived. If that's the case, I'm afraid that even if King Yu has a chance to defend himself, Jiajing may not be able to listen.
But at this time, Jiajing was softened by Xiao Feng's poem, and naturally his attitude changed.
Seeing that King Yu still looked confused, Jiajing sighed inwardly. He knew that Lu Bing would not tell King Yu any news, and he could definitely trust this.
So if this matter was indeed done by King Yu, then his acting skills are indeed good enough.
Looking down Prince Yu's waist, he saw a jade pendant hanging from his waist. Jiajing felt relieved, and his voice was full of joy: "You still have your jade pendant, show it to me."
King Yu suddenly raised his head, glanced at Jiajing in surprise, and then looked at King Jing who was standing aside. His voice was trembling: "I am guilty. I lost my jade pendant a few days ago, and I am sending people to look for it. I didn't expect that my father... "
Jiajing's heart felt cold, and there was a hint of embarrassment in his tone: "I knew it when I didn't expect it, right? How did you lose it? When did you lose it? Tell me!"
King Yu was indeed a little panicked at this time. He didn't know what was going on when he was brought there. Lu Bing didn't tell him, but just told him to stay calm no matter what happened in the palace!
This reminder had some effect at this time. King Yu tried his best to calm down and not think about the traps here.
When you don't know much about something, the safest thing to do is to tell the truth.
"Er Chen is confused. He really doesn't know the specific time of loss, but he found out that it was lost three days ago. He also wiped it seven days ago, so it must have been lost within those four days at most. As for how it was lost, Er Chen does I don’t know.”
Jiajing held back his anger and said, "That's ridiculous! The jade pendant you carried with you is missing, and you didn't even notice? Are the people who helped you change your clothes when you go to bed at night dead? They couldn't find it either?"
It does sound nonsense at this time, because the jade pendant is tied around the waist through a network of silk ribbons and colorful threads. The jade pendant has weight. It stands to reason that it can be felt if the jade pendant hanging on the waist is missing.
Even if King Yu was careless, the servant who was waiting for him to change clothes at night should have noticed that something was missing. Even Xiao Feng frowned a little at King Yu's remarks.
"My son knows that this is incredible.
The network of the jade pendant had not been cut off. When Erchen discovered it, there was another jade pendant with the same shape on the network. The quality of the jade was also very good. It also had the word "Yu" on it, but it didn't have the word "王" written on it. Words with yellow lines.
That's why the ministers and servants were careless and never noticed. "
King Yu said, taking off the jade pendant from his waist. Huang Jin stepped forward to take it on a tray and walked back with it. Jiajing stood up and grabbed the jade pendant.
Sure enough, as King Yu said, the size and shape are the same, and the quality of the jade is also very good, but there are no yellow lines. It is just an ordinary piece of beautiful jade, which is not surprising.
The word "Yu" on the jade is also very well engraved. If there is no special suspicion about such a jade pendant, it is indeed impossible to see the problem only under the dim light at night.
In broad daylight, King Yu would not look at his jade pendant all the time, and others would not dare to ask to see it.
Who dares to say: "Oh, King Yu, come here and let me see the jade pendant hanging on your waist. I heard it was given to you by your father. Let me open my eyes!" Even a madman cannot do this.
But if it was really stolen, then this thief is too stupid. If you just stole the jade pendant, why should you replace it with a piece of beautiful jade? This doesn't sound very believable.
Jiajing sat back on the chair and waved tiredly. Huang Jin put the tray in front of King Yu again.
King Yu looked at the three jade pendants on the plate and didn't react at first. After he saw the damaged one and the intact King Jing's jade pendant, he suddenly understood something.
His face turned pale, and he knelt on the ground and shouted: "Father, my son has been wronged, my son has been wronged!"
Jiajing's face turned pale, but his tone became calmer: "You lost your jade pendant and replaced it with a fake one around your waist. King Jing's jade pendant was lost. It was only a month ago and the news has not spread to the palace, but now it is An identical jade pendant appeared in the hand of a female corpse! But this jade pendant is one layer thinner!"
Prince Yu's face was as white as paper. Of course he knew what Jiajing meant. The key was that he also felt that this matter was indeed difficult to defend. Coincidence? What a coincidence this coincidence must be, so coincidental that no one can believe it.
Everyone was silent, savoring the mystery. Xiao Feng suddenly said: "Who is that female corpse? This is a murder case after all. Shouldn't we first find out the identity of the deceased?"
No one spoke, Lu Bing shook his head secretly: "After all, he is too young, and it involves the princes framing each other, so the murder itself is meaningless. The prince will not suffer too seriously if he kills a woman. Punishment, but it will ruin your reputation and put you at a disadvantage in future battles for power."
But this is also something that can be done but not said. Even Jiajing can't say clearly: "My son is not guilty of murder." So Jiajing looked at Xiao Feng: "What are your ideas?"
Xiao Feng said: "The jade pendant case is a case within the murder case. If the murder case is solved, the case within the case may also be solved at the same time.
Who was the woman, why she died, and who found her? Among these questions, only the identity of the woman has not been clarified.
In my opinion, this matter should be clarified. This path may be faster than being trapped in the mystery of the jade pendant. "
Jiajing had a kind of escape mentality at this time.
Although he was almost certain that King Yu had a problem, Xiao Feng's proposal was both upright and upright, and it also allowed him to temporarily not have to deal with his son's affairs directly, which was also a temporary relief for him.
So Jiajing nodded in agreement: "In Xiao Aiqing's opinion, who should we entrust this case to hear?"
