As he spoke, Li Hao looked at Liang Wuji, wanting to confirm from him whether this situation was true.

Then Liang Wuji replied: "This is indeed true. The one who is pregnant is the concubine I just took. Because it was not long ago that I found out that I was pregnant, I didn't tell you."

Liang Xia sneered: "I'm afraid that may not be the case. You deliberately concealed it because you had a good idea. You want to take this opportunity to take back the position of the head of the family so that you can leave it to your son."

Liang Wuji replied: "I have never cared about the position of the head of the family. Why would I kill someone for it? It's ridiculous."

Li Hao knew that what Liang Wuji said was true. Just like Yuan Pei, if the world hadn't been in chaos and the family needed a resolute and resolute head to support the family's future, they would never have sat in this position.

It's just that Yuan Pei paid for this with the love of his heart, while Liang Wuji was the subject of conspiracy speculation for more than 20 years.

But Li Hao believed that this was useless. Without substantial evidence to prove it, Ji Zun would not be able to pass the test.

At this time Ji Zun said: "Okay, who is the real murderer of this murder? We will know after careful investigation. Now let's go to the scene of the murder and have a look?"

Liang Xia did not stop him, and immediately led everyone to the book house, but at the door of the book house, Liang Wuji was stopped by Ji Zun.

After all, until the case is investigated, he is suspected of being the real culprit and is not suitable to enter the crime scene.

So Liang Xia led Ji Zun and Li Hao in to take a look. At this glance, Li Hao discovered the problem.

Because this room was used by Liang Shang to carve gold and stone, and it was also the room where the secret room was hidden.

If it were here, the secret room would not be established, which would explain why Liang Wuji, the last one to go out, was not the murderer.

Li Hao then looked at Liang Xia, who was guarding Ji Zun. After all, in the original trajectory, it was this guy who used the secret room to murder Liang Shang, and then put the blame on Qu Lengjun.

It was just that at that time, he was instigated by Xiao Yuehou, and he used Qu Lengjun to kill his husband in order to ruin Liang Shang's son's path to succeeding as the head of the family, so that he could successfully ascend to the throne.

But now, this fate has nothing to do with the Yang family. Even if Liang Shang dies, with his son here, and with the Hongnong Yang family as his backer, I am afraid it will be difficult for him to be the head of the family.

The risks are high and the returns are small. Although Liang Xia is unwise, he can't even calculate this. Otherwise, he would have done it in his hometown in Hedong, so why wait until today.

But he still did it, so there must be another reason behind it, or someone was secretly pushing it.

Therefore, Li Hao did not speak directly, but silently withdrew his eyes and pretended to look around, so that Liang Xia did not notice.

After a round of inspection, Ji Zun found no loopholes. He could only confirm that Liang Shang died from a blow to the chest, and there were no signs of a fight in the room.

It proved that the person who did this was not only very skilled, but also someone who was familiar with Liang Shang, so he was not at all defensive.

Under these conditions, Liang Wuji perfectly met all the requirements. Ji Zunzai was silent for a while and asked Li Hao: "You have turned around, can you tell anything?"

Li Hao replied: "When it comes to investigation, you are an expert. If you don't see anything, how can I see it?"

However, Liang Zhoumu's character is still trustworthy. I think there may be some hidden secrets in this matter. How about spending some more time to investigate? "

Just as Ji Zun was about to nod, Liang Xia gritted his teeth and said, "Yuan Ziyang, this is your uncle who died, a close relative by blood. Even though he was at odds with you in the past, but now that he is dead, do you still want to Can’t we let the murderer go?”

Li Hao heard this and replied: "What my second uncle said, when did I have a bad relationship with my eldest uncle? You can't listen to outsiders' fabrications.

As for the real culprit who murdered my uncle, he certainly deserved to be cut into pieces and quartered. However, there must be sufficient evidence before making a conclusion.

Skynet is meticulous and meticulous. If it is later found out that my uncle is the real culprit, Mr. Ji will definitely report it to the father-in-law. Don’t you even believe Mr. Ji? "

When Li Hao said that the murderer would be cut into pieces and quartered, Liang Xia's face twitched unnaturally.

But he was quickly suppressed and replied: "Of course I trust Mr. Ji's character?"

Seeing the two people looking over, Ji Zun also spoke: "I will uphold justice for the deceased. Liangzhou Mu will take him into custody first and take him to Tingwei Mansion. After finding out the truth, he will report it to His Majesty for disposal."

After speaking, Ji Zun was about to leave, but Li Hao immediately reminded him when he saw that he didn't even block the scene.

After all, there may still be evidence in the secret room at this time. If someone moves it, it will be somewhat troublesome to clear Liang Wuji of suspicion later.

Moreover, Li Hao also wanted to take the opportunity to create a sense of uneasiness in Liang Xia, because Li Hao was sure that this guy was not someone who could hold his breath, so he forced him to contact the person behind it to see who was behind it this time. Make trouble.

"Sir Ji, should someone protect the murder scene? After all, the suspects and the deceased this time are both members of the government. If someone tampered with it, we wouldn't be able to tell if something went wrong."

Ji Zun glanced at the words and was about to speak when the Liang family answered: "This is in the Liang family's inner house. Just arrange for a few servants to watch it. I'm afraid it won't be convenient for outsiders?"

Li Hao replied: "My second uncle is wrong. My cousin has been in charge of the Liang family for many years and has many close associates in the house. Since you suspect that it was him who did it, shouldn't you take precautions?"

Moreover, this place is far away from where Uchimaki lives. Lord Ji sent people here, and they only guarded the front and back of the house. They would definitely not disturb Uchimaki, right? "

Hearing Li Hao's question, Ji Zun also said: "That's true. I only sent a few people to watch the door. I won't beat anyone in the house."

Although Liang Xia was a little reluctant to see this, he had nothing to say and could only grit his teeth and agreed.

Ji Zun then transferred ten people from the accompanying Tingwei Mansion officers to take turns guarding the house.

After that, he personally escorted Liang Wuji back to Tingwei's Mansion, while Li Hao stayed for a while and asked about the situation at Yang's side. After all, his husband had just died, so how could he not see anyone all day long.

Then listening to Liang Xia's explanation, Li Hao learned that news came from the Yang family two days ago that her father was really critically ill this time, so she took her children back to Hongnong.

Now that someone has been sent to pass on the news of Liang Yashen's death, I think she will leave and return as soon as possible.

After understanding the situation, Li Hao also said goodbye and left, but before he had gone far, Li Hao called Yuan Wo to his side.

He ordered: "Immediately arrange for a few people who are good at sneak tracking to keep an eye on the movements of Liang Xia and his cronies. I want to know if they have seen anyone?"

After Yuan Wo accepted the order, he immediately left the team and went to select suitable candidates.

When they returned to the mansion, Wang Yao and Qu Lengjun, who had already learned the news, immediately gathered around and asked about the situation.

Just when Li Hao was about to introduce him, he saw the maid next to Liang arriving, saying that she wanted to ask Li Hao for questioning.

Obviously, when something like this happened to the Liang family, even the usually calm Liang couldn't sit still.

At that moment, Li Hao naturally wanted to take care of Liang's mother first, so he said to Wang Jiao and Wang, "I'll go to my mother first, and we'll talk about the Liang Mansion when I get back."

After saying that, he followed the maid to Mr. Liang's yard. Then he saw Mr. Liang sending away everyone waiting nearby, and then asked: "What is the specific situation of the Liang family? Have you found any clues about the real murderer?"

Li Hao replied: "Not yet, but are you so sure that it wasn't my cousin who did it? You know, my second uncle is now adamant that he was the murderer.

Moreover, the concubine that my uncle had just accepted a few days ago was pregnant, so he had the motive to kill her. "

When Mrs. Liang heard Li Hao say that Liang Wuji had a descendant, her face changed slightly, but then she said: "What kind of person your uncle is, I know best. He will never kill Liang Xia.

I'm afraid there is a secret behind this matter. The Yuan and Liang families are widely involved. You should find a way to investigate carefully and don't slack off. "

"Yes, my son understands.

"Li Hao agreed, and then was kicked out by Liang.

This situation made Li Hao shake his head. He really regarded himself as a tool.

After returning to his courtyard, Li Hao briefly explained to the two about the Liang family, asking them to be careful in their words and actions in the recent period and not to be tricked.

As for the truth of this matter, I didn't say it. After all, it's not the time for the truth to be revealed yet, but Wang Jian is not a person who can hide his words, so it is best to hide it first.

But when Yuan Shen comes back in the evening, he can say more to him. Except for the secret room in the room, which is hard to tell, Li Hao directly stated his other speculations about Liang Xia.

But without the evidence of a secret room, these words were a bit empty. Therefore, after hearing this, Yuan Shen said: "That's not true. They are brothers from the same mother. How could they cause death?"

Li Hao replied: "Brothers have become more jealous these days. Liang Shang always suppresses him in everything. He is not an open-minded person, so there is nothing surprising about his murderous intentions.

Let me tell you that in the final analysis, my uncle is also responsible for this matter. If Liang Shang had been allowed to marry an ordinary girl, maybe Liang Xia would have felt better! "

Yuan Shen was still dubious when he heard what he said, but he didn't dwell too much on it. After all, Li Hao was already being watched, and it would soon be clear whether it was true or false.

Then Li Hao reminded: "In addition, during these days, please pay attention to the direction of the wind. Since someone has taken action against the Liang family, the Yuan family will probably not be able to survive alone. Don't be suddenly attacked by others.

Especially since I showed up at the Liang Mansion yesterday, will I give those people an excuse? "

Yuan Shen promised: "Don't worry about this, I will definitely be careful and inform you as soon as I have any news."

The fact was indeed what the two of them thought. There was a court meeting the next day, and the current censor Zhongcheng brought the Liang family's case to the court meeting and asked Emperor Wen to deal with it seriously.

Li Hao and Ji Zun were also impeached, saying that Li Hao was obstructing Liang's errands when he arrived at the Liang Mansion yesterday, while Ji Zun was suspected of connivance.

Of course, Ji Zun didn't take these words seriously, and didn't even think about quarreling with him. He directly replied to Emperor Wen: "Your Majesty, it is precisely because this matter involves great importance that I have to act with caution.

As for Yuan Ziyang, the deceased was his uncle. He went over to inquire about the situation and if there was any problem. "

After hearing this, Yushi Zhongcheng said: "Oh, what Mr. Ji said is true, the deceased is his uncle, but the murderer is also his uncle, and as far as I know, he and the murderer seem to be more familiar."

When Ji Zun heard this, he immediately replied: "I guess your knowledge is wrong. There is a difference between closeness and distance. One is a direct uncle and the other is a cousin. Naturally, we are more familiar with the direct uncle.

How about we call Yuan Ziyang to the hall and ask him personally. "

Seeing Ji Zun being so dishonest, the censor Zhongcheng couldn't help it anymore and asked him whatever he wanted.

But at this moment, the person next to him saw that he had wandered away from the topic, and coughed twice to signal him.

After being reminded, he immediately replied: "Let's not mention Yuan Ziyang's matter for now, but I don't know how cautious Mr. Ji wants to be. This relationship is now attracting everyone's attention in both the government and the public. If it cannot be settled as soon as possible, I don't know how much gossip it will attract.

If the credibility of the imperial court is shaken, I wonder how Lord Ji will explain it to His Majesty? "

Ji Zunze replied: "The Tingwei Mansion is in charge of the law and punishment code. It is the duty to find out the truth of the case, to avenge the injustice of the living and to vindicate the dead. I wonder what explanation you want me to give?"

The censor Zhongcheng naturally refused to acknowledge what he said, and immediately started arguing with Ji Zun about how to decide. Then several people came out to help speak and put pressure on Ji Zun.

And Liang Wuji also had friends in the court, so he would naturally lend a helping hand, and for a while the noise was like Caishikou.

Seeing this situation, Emperor Wen interrupted the people below with a slap on the table. After everyone looked at him, he said: "Okay, this matter really cannot be delayed, so we will set it for ten days. The Tingwei Mansion must investigate within ten days." Tell the truth."

Then he skipped this matter and started discussing other things.

After the court meeting dispersed, Li Hao knew the deadline set by Emperor Wen, but he did not

Not impressed.

Because Li Hao believed that Liang Xia would not be able to endure it for so many days, as long as he waited for him to move and let Li Hao find out who his opponent was, he could then start to expose the secret room and reveal the real murderer.

Sure enough, after enduring it for two days, Liang Xia found that there was no movement outside, so he changed into a servant's clothes and quietly left the Liang Mansion.

Then he thought he was unnoticed, but he didn't know that Li Hao's people had already targeted him and followed him into a house.

It's a pity that this house is not in the record, which rich family owns the house, so the follower can only squat outside, hoping to get information from the people coming out from behind.

After waiting for an hour, Liang Xia was seen coming out of the house. Then two people were separated and continued to stare, while the others stayed behind.

It took almost an hour before someone came out again, but I couldn't recognize who it was.

To be on the safe side, two more people were separated to follow, while the others continued to stare to see if there was anyone else inside.

After all, they don't know what's going on here. Who knows how many people are hiding here and who are the important figures.
