Di Xue and Chu Ran were startled by her sudden change of attitude, but they still waited respectfully.
Lin Yuling sighed softly when she saw this: "Take a look at this!"
Di Xue took the paper from Lin Yuling and saw that it was written by the person who bought Man Rong Powder.
After careful identification, Di Xue was shocked. The handwriting was exactly the same as what she saw in Zhao Mansion. A guess appeared in Di Xue's mind.
Di Xue and Di Xue took the receipt and were about to walk out. Chu Ran suddenly took out a letter from his arms and handed it to Lin Yuling as if he remembered something.
"My father asked me to bring this to you. He said he hoped everything would be fine for you!"
After Lin Yuling took it, she drove Di Xue and Chu Ran out as if she was tired.
The two walked downstairs and saw scraps of paper thrown from upstairs. Among the tiny pieces, Di Xue only saw the word "Unchanged" floating in front of her eyes.
"Do you know anything about this case?"
When Chu Ran asked after leaving Wanbaozhai, Di Xue nodded:
"I already have a guess in my mind, but I still need some evidence!"
Just as the two of them rushed back to Dali Temple, Zhang Ying also rushed over:
"Sir, the surrounding areas of the Zhao Mansion have been thoroughly investigated, and the information on maid Chunying has also been investigated. All the people you asked to investigate around the hunting grounds are also here."
Di Xue took Zhang Ying's records and saw that the Zhao Mansion purchased items early in the morning every day, but this morning it was the housekeeper of the Zhao Mansion who went to purchase them.
And when he went out, he pushed a large bucket and seemed to stay near the inland river for a while.
Then the other information is not much different from what I imagined, and the case can be solved.
In the lobby of Dali Temple, Di Xue summoned everyone from the Zhao family.
Di Xue sat in the hall, Han Shu and Zhang Ying stood on the left and right, Chu Ran sat aside, and Feng Shaoning was brought out for interrogation.
"I am going to court today to close the case of Zhao Yufeng's death and the death of maid Chunying. You can't hide anything!"
After Di Xue said this, everyone quickly raised their hands and said yes.
"First let's talk about the truth about the death of Miss Zhao Yufeng. Zhao Yufeng seemed to be shot to death by Feng Shaoning's arrow. In fact, she was not. She was already dead before the arrow fell!"
Di Xue paused and looked at Minister Zhao's face, only to see that his eyes were blood red and there was no expression at all.
"She was poisoned by Manrong Powder. People will die within a few moments after this poison enters the body, so she died after she was poisoned. This poison is rare, and it happened that Wanbaozhai auctioned a bottle!"
"The buyer is Zhao Yufeng's biological father, Shilang Zhao!" Di Xue's words shocked everyone present.
"He actually killed his own daughter?" Han Shu asked in surprise.
Di Xue nodded:
"Perhaps in his eyes, a daughter with a bad reputation is not as important as his own status in the court!"
"Then how did he transport the body to the hunting ground? And how did Feng Shaoning get shot?"
Han Shu asked.
"This is not difficult. When the prince and others go to the hunting ground, they never prohibit other people from entering, so the guards at the door do not pay special attention to who is entering. Those who enter only need to pay the money, and Feng Shaoning's itinerary habits are not It’s hard to get because Chunhua, the sister of the Zhao family’s maid Chunying, works as an errand in the Feng family’s residence!”
After Di Xue finished speaking, Feng Shaoning was also shocked. He never imagined that his daily actions would be monitored and reported to that sick woman.
"And the identities of these two sisters are not limited to this. They are the apprentices of Jiang Lei, an old animal trainer in Chuzhou. It was only because Jiang Lei was a cruel person that the two of them could not bear the beating, so they escaped, but they also escaped. The wolf's mouth passed into the tiger's mouth, and when he arrived in Yuanjing, he was kidnapped and sold by Yazi, and then he was bought separately by the Feng family and the Zhao family."
As soon as Di Xue finished speaking, Han Shu asked: "Could it be that the rabbit His Royal Highness and others saw was trained by Chunying and was specially used to confuse Feng Shaoning?"
Di Xue nodded: "And no other rabbits were seen at the hunting ground that day. Someone must have shot most of the rabbits in advance for fear of affecting the plan. Mr. Zhao went to the hunting ground the day before yesterday and took away a large number of rabbits. !”
After Di Xue finished speaking, everyone present also understood that Zhao Yufeng was killed by her own family, while Chunying was silenced because she knew too much.
Just when everyone thought Di Xue was about to close the case, they heard Di Xue ask: "But I have something unknown. The Zhao family is poor. How can I have the money to buy the one hundred taels of poison?"
After Di Xue finished speaking, Zhao Shilang could only see his eyelids, and then he said: "This is all my savings."
"I find it hard to believe what you said, Minister. Do you want to kill your own daughter even if you spend all your savings?"
"Everything is her own fault. She has disgraced the family and failed to uphold the virtues of women. Our Zhao family will not include her in the family tree!"
After Zhao Shilang finished speaking, his face turned pale and he fainted. After Chu Ran went to see him, he said he was overly worried and was not in good health.
It would take a while to adjust, so Di Xue had no choice but to suspend the court for the time being and wait until Zhao Shilang could accept questioning before rising again.
So everyone in the Zhao family except Zhao Shilang was taken to the Dali Temple prison, and Zhao Shilang received treatment in Dali Temple until he could stand trial.
So everyone went back to their homes, and Feng Shaoning thanked him profusely and went home.
The next morning, Di Xue got dressed up. She was dressed in a purple brocade robe with a narrow hem and a white jade crown. She looked very beautiful.
Then he left the mansion and saw Chu Ran standing in front of the carriage of Prince Heng's mansion. He was wearing a blue brocade robe with wide sleeves and a white jade belt. He looked very elegant.
When he saw Di Xue coming out, he said, "Master Di, please take my carriage into the palace today."
"Okay, aren't Princess Qingyang and Hairi Li Taoli going?" Di Xue asked when she saw that there was no one else in the car.
Chu Ran smiled slightly after hearing this: "Tao Li has already entered the palace with her mother. She has played with Princess Qingyang since she was a child, so she went to accompany her earlier."
Di Xue nodded. Princess Chu Yurao of Qingyang is the daughter of the late Empress Dowager Lu's brother. When Empress Lu's brother died of illness, she was adopted as an orphan by Empress Dowager Lu. She was renamed Chu and given the title of Qingyang. Princess.
Although Princess Qingyang lost her parents in her early years, she was well taken care of by the Empress Dowager Lu, so she was lively by nature. There was nothing she dared not do. Even Chu Yun could not do anything to her.
"Your Highness, Lord Di's palace gate has arrived."
After the boy finished speaking, Di Xue and Chu Ran got out of the car. After the guards at the palace gate checked to confirm that they did not carry weapons or other items, they entered the palace.
Since it was a wedding ceremony for the princess, the palace banquet was not held in the front hall, but in a separate banquet place in the harem, Qinghe Garden.
Di Xue and Chu Ran didn't walk very fast, but they arrived after a while.
"Master Di, brother, are you here?"
When Di Xue heard the news, she saw Chu Taoli running over, dragging a girl in a lotus-colored palace dress.
