Li Guodong was about to leave the palace, but was stopped by a woman: "Duke of Chu, please stay."

"Your Highness Princess!" Li Guodong quickly saluted.

Wang Chengen withdrew tactfully. He knew very well why Li Guodong wanted Princess Kunxing to be the governor of the country. The princess has not married yet, and it is related to Duke Chu. The princess can no longer hold on to others in her heart. Chongzhen, who loves her daughter, did not force the princess to get married. Once Princess Kunxing becomes the governor of the country, Duke Chu will take the opportunity to start a massacre in the court.

Perhaps it is possible that the Duke of Chu finally usurped the Ming Dynasty with the support of the princess, but that was not related to Wang Cheng'en. Wang Cheng'en was only loyal to the Xinwang family, which did not mean that Wang Cheng'en was loyal to the Ming Dynasty. If Zhu Youlang or Zhu Yujian or something were the emperor, Wang Cheng'en felt that it would be better to let him watch the princess who grew up as the governor. As for what happened in the future, it might be that by then that time, Wang Cheng'en would have returned to heaven and continued to serve King Xin. What happened in the world would have nothing to do with him.

"Duke Chu, I have heard what you said to Eunuch Wang. Do you think your father was really hurt by a traitor?" Princess Kunxing asked with tears in her eyes.

Li Guodong looked at the princess and saw that in the past two years since she left Nanjing, the princess has grown a little longer. Now nineteen-year-old Princess Kunxing is tall and tall and has grown a little figure. Originally, Xiaohe had just revealed her sharp corners, but now she has some shapes. The princess's beautiful face has become more beautiful because she has become mature. At this time, the princess's eyes are filled with tears, looking pitiful and even more pity.

"Your Highness Princess, this is only possible. I have asked Eunuch Prince to investigate this matter strictly. I hope Your Highness will keep the secret strictly. If it is leaked, I am afraid that your Majesty will be killed in vain if he is escaped from the traitor." Li Guodong replied.

Princess Kunxing pursed her little mouth, bit her lower lip tightly, and nodded vigorously: "I know. Duke Chu, you must not let go of those murderers who harmed your father!"

"Please rest assured Your Majesty. If someone really hurts Your Majesty in secret, I will definitely not let those people go!" Li Guodong bowed and said goodbye to Princess Kunxing, and then left the palace.

Li Guodong returned to his Duke's Mansion and immediately summoned Zhang Shuheng and other Jinyiwei and Dongchang men. After all, Li Guodong was not familiar with how to solve the case, and to solve the case, Jinyiwei still needed Jinyiwei.

"Grandpa, the prince has already made arrangements. Unfortunately, our brothers are still one step late. A little eunuch in the palace suddenly died suddenly at noon today!" said an East Factory blocking his head.

Since Li Guodong suspected that someone brought something that could bring Chongzhen into the palace that could cause Chongzhen to get sick, Wang Chengen's Dongchang must have started investigating from the people around the emperor in the palace. Unexpectedly, those people's actions were still one step faster, and a little eunuch who was specifically responsible for sweeping the floor in Qianqing Palace died suddenly at noon.

"Investigate immediately and start investigating from the person the young eunuch usually approaches!" Zhang Shuheng gave the order decisively.

Li Guodong asked again: "How is the Imperial Hospital?"

"All the imperial doctors who dispensed medicine for the present have been sent to the Jinyiwei Jail Prison and are now under investigation." Zhang Shuheng replied.

"Let's go to the Jinyiwei Zhaozhuo." Li Guodong said.

He walked into the Embroidered Guard. Before he could enter the gate, he heard a miserable crying sound from inside. A bloody smell mixed with musty smell came to his face. Li Guodong strode into the Embroidered Guard and saw two strong Embroidered Guards serving an old man in rags at first sight.

The old man's official uniform had long been stripped off. He was wearing a white prison clothes. The white prison clothes were torn and covered in blood. Two Jinyiwei guards pressed the old man on a stool, pulled apart one of his trousers, exposed his scarred legs, and then fixed his feet to the stool with an iron hoop.

Two other Jinyiwei brought a small coal stove with a boiling pot of boiling water on it.

"Tell me honestly! How did you poison your Majesty's medicine?" a captain of the Jinyiwei roared.

"I'm wronged. I'm just a prescription. I don't know anything else after I prescribe it." The imperial physician cried and shouted for injustice.

"Come on him!" the captain of the Jinyiwei roared.

A Jinyiwei Liss scooped out a scoop of boiling water from the iron pot and poured it on the old man's legs. When the boiling water was poured down, the old man let out a heart-wrenching scream. Then another Jinyiwei picked up the iron brush and brushed it hard at the position where it was scalded by the boiling water. After a few strokes, the flesh that had been scalded fell one by one.

"Ah!" the old man screamed and fainted.

"Wake him up and continue!" shouted the captain of the Jinyiwei.

Li Guodong frowned slightly. He felt that it was impossible to ask for any results in this interrogation. It is estimated that there are key figures in the Imperial Hospital, and it is very likely that the key figure has been silenced. So he said to Zhang Shuheng: "I guess this old guy can't ask anything. Have you checked it, and the medicines are not poisonous? I think it should be that they added something to several non-toxic drugs, so that the medicine will become toxic."

At this moment, the Jinyiwei came in and reported: "Dude, Duke, we found a place where the young eunuch often went. All five of the family there were silenced!"

"We are still one step late!" Zhang Shuheng said heartbrokenly, "Let's go and have a look!"

Li Guodong and Zhang Shuheng walked into an alley surrounded by a large group of Dongchang men and Jinyiwei. The alley was very deep. After walking for a long time, they walked to a small yard and saw that the constables and yamen runners from the Yingtian Prefecture yamen outside had long surrounded the yard tightly.

Zhang Shuheng walked up, and the leader Pu Tou greeted him: "Keep to Zhang Dusi, see the Duke!"

"Let's go and take us in and have a look." Zhang Shuheng said.

Through Putou's introduction, Li Guodong knew that this morning the neighbor discovered that the family suddenly died, and someone went to the yamen to report the official. Yingtian Prefecture's yamen did not dare to be negligent, so he immediately sent constables and yamen runners to block the scene.

When he walked inside, he saw a man wearing ordinary people's clothes greeted him and knelt on one knee: "I'm going to see the Duke of the Kingdom, and to see Zhang Dusi!"

This man was the secret spy of the Jinyiwei who was sent by Zhang Shuheng to secretly investigate the case. Who knew that the family had been silenced just after he found out here. When he was about to investigate further, the people from Yingtian Mansion surrounded the yard and almost regarded him as a suspect. Later, the secret spy showed his waist card, and the yamen runners did not dare to take action.

The family of five was brutally destroyed. The family had an old man, a couple and a pair of children. The family all died in the bedroom. The Jinyiwei inspected the body and found that they were all broken by someone.

The spy from the Jinyiwei said: "Zhang Dusi, this family's men specialize in making fake road ins and fake waist cards. Bei Zhi found out this morning, but he didn't expect that they were wiped out last night."

Although the Ming Dynasty had a strict household registration management system and homepage management system, there were many fake things such as road incense and waist-bar cards. Those who made fake road incense can not only make fake road incense, but also make fake scholars and juren certificates, and also make fake military waist cards, Jinyiwei waist cards, and even make fake waist cards into the palace!

Li Guodong asked: "Can the fake waist sign enter the palace be mixed into the palace? Are the people guarding the door a bunch of wine bags?"

"You are back in the country, you can't get into the fake waist cards for entering the palace. There are special secret notes for entering the palace, which are not visible to ordinary people, but the Jinyiwei and Dongchang Monkey King who are guarding the gate can see it at a glance." Zhang Shuheng replied.

Li Guodong asked strangely: "Since the fake waist card entering the palace has no effect, why is this family still silenced?"
