"You mean someone is digging a hole for the Ministry of Punishment to use the Ministry of Punishment's knife to attack King Lu?!" Jiang Cheng's tone was a little high. It was obvious that he was extremely surprised after thinking of this possibility, and at the same time his heart tightened. Because this is not just a "big test", but it is very likely to involve a foul-smelling evil monk.
"It's possible, and I think it's very likely."
"Bang!" Jiang Cheng slapped the table hard, causing the objects on the table to jump. Then he cursed: "Are the people in the Criminal Department really such useless people? Are they so careless and reckless? Can't you see that it's a cover-up?"
"Sir, although the people in the Major Case Department are not very capable, Xue Gui is not mediocre. I don't think he is completely unaware of these flaws in the case."
Jiang Cheng snorted coldly and said, "Did he do it on purpose? He's quite brave!" After being reminded by Shen Hao, Jiang Cheng also figured out the twists and turns.
Those who borrow knives, use them as knives, and even those who are slaughtered do not have a fuel-efficient lamp.
When Shen Hao was still a soldier of the Xuanqing Guards, he personally experienced a case in which a seemingly seriously ill and lonely old man poisoned the next door family of five and set fire to destroy the corpses. The reason was just because the old man did so. It was just a nightmare that was nothing to talk about.
From then on, Shen Hao never dared to label anyone as "weak" or "honest" or "harmless".
Xuanqing Wei has been in the guard for a long time, and in his eyes, as long as he can walk on the ground, no one is a good person.
What's more, a prince who comes from a royal family has been preparing for a fratricide for decades since he was a child. Even a fool has long been transformed and become smarter than a monkey.
Where is Xue Gui? He has worked in the major case division, and he has gained a lot of qualifications along the way. It is not an exaggeration to say that he is well-informed.
If it really comes down to it, based on Shen Hao's deduction, the Major Case Division seems to be the best choice to be "stupid". However, as Jiang Chengruo said, it takes a lot of courage to dare to make such a choice. Ordinary people simply will not and dare not take this path.
"If the Major Case Department is willing to act as a knife and chop King Lu with one knife, what do you think the chance of King Lu being killed by this knife? Will there be a similar trick in the future?"
Jiang Cheng walked back and forth in the study, his thoughts changing rapidly. He knew very well that the Major Case Department was playing with fire. Once the fire broke out, neither the Major Case Department nor the Criminal Department could control the fire. If a prairie fire started, there would be trouble. That's big. He was even thinking about how Xuan Qingwei would be affected if things got out of hand.
Facing Jiang Cheng's question, Shen Hao thought for a moment, shook his head and said, "I don't know. His subordinates know almost nothing about King Lu's details, and His Majesty's attitude is not clear either. At present, the only one who can be regarded as a trump card is Even if he is associated with the "evil monks", if there are more people from the side to stir up trouble, King Lu's situation will be very bad.
However, if King Lu reacts faster and kills Li Wenhao without distinguishing between right and wrong before the Criminal Department takes action, then everything will change again. At least the case will be closed because a key link is missing. There is no ironclad conclusion.
But sir, are we really just watching the show? That involves evil monks. If they hide in the dark and deliberately provoke such assassinations, and do it again and again, then the "big test" will become a complete joke. "
The "Grand Examination" was exploited by evil monks, and the result was so terrible that even Shen Hao had no feelings for his family and country towards Jing Jiu Dynasty, but he couldn't help but feel a little creepy.
Jiang Cheng twitched the corner of his mouth, pointed at Shen Hao, and suddenly smiled: "Do you think we will watch those losers from the Ministry of Justice pretend to be stupid and ruin the "big exam" that His Majesty has cultivated for many years? The matter of the evil monks It cannot be limited to the case, which is no longer just a "big test".
But neither you nor I can make the decision in this matter. You will stop for some food and rest first, and I will go find Mr. Pang. I will inform you when I am sure. "
Everyone knew that this matter could not be delayed. Jiang Cheng waved Shen Hao to go back and wait for the news, while he gathered his thoughts with a gloomy face and went to Pang Ban's mansion overnight.
How Xuan Qingwei should react to this matter must be explained as soon as possible.
...
It was already Haishi when Shen Hao returned to the station of Fushi Yamen in Jingxi Town. He asked his bodyguard to go to the kitchen and order a bowl of plain noodles, which he ate as a midnight snack. He meditated and finished his homework and did not choose to sleep.
To be precise, Shen Hao was not sleepy at all, and clues about the King Qian case were flashing through his mind all the time. Subconsciously, he still hopes to deduce something new through these clues.
Unfortunately, the message has been deduced to the extreme by Shen Hao so far. There must be new intelligence support later, otherwise it will be difficult to advance. Compared to his side, the Major Case Division followed the "simple and clear" path of investigation and could barely complete a complete file.
Of course, Shen Hao will not sit still and wait for death. Yesterday, he went to give the news to Wang Jian. He split into two routes, taking the route of Yueying Tower to Wansi City to find out the news about Zhang Rutie and Lin Qinghong. One way is to follow the route of Hengshun, which has just established land transportation in the weak water basin and has come into contact with Tianyi Company and Wanshi City land transportation. It also checks Zhang Rutie and Lin Qinghong.
Time was running out, Shen Hao told Wang Jian to do their best as quickly as possible, and Hengshun Car and Horse Racing would do their best, but Yueying Tower wanted to get a response within two days. As for the money or any other price, Shen Hao had it in his hands now. The resources are completely affordable.
It wasn't until Yinshi that Jiang Cheng came out of Pang Ban's house and found Shen Hao, who was not sleepy at all.
As soon as the door was closed, a defensive array was set up as cover and isolation. Even in his own territory like the Xuanqing Guard Station, Jiang Cheng was extremely cautious.
"What Mr. Pangda means is that you wait and see on the surface, and continue to investigate secretly. But if you find something else later, don't ventilate the Ministry of Punishment any more. If you have any requests, just ask, whether it is the governor's office or the commander's office. We will do our best to help you solve it.”
Shen Hao shook his head. The power in his hands now was just right, familiar and controllable. The power of the commander's yamen and the governor's yamen will not necessarily be better than what he has in his hands now.
"Sir, I don't have any other requests, but the time is indeed too tight. Especially now that I have to go to the City of Fusi for verification, I may not be able to get anything useful after going back and forth for a day or two."
"Did you infiltrate the city of Wangsei City?" Jiang Cheng was quite surprised when he heard this. He remembered that Shen Hao had mentioned to him the intention of infiltrating the city by horse and carriage before, but he didn't expect that this had already been implemented?
"Yes, sir, Hengshun Carriage and Horses Co., Ltd. has now taken over the overland transportation business in the weak water basin from Tianyi Company, and has officially entered the City of Fusi. This time, my subordinates also want to use this case to try their luck. hand."
