Chapter 1551: True and False Murderer
There are too many suspicions in this matter, and... any major case, once a big person is involved in the end, it is inevitable that innocent people may be implicated.
So everyone's hearts became tense. When the eunuch named Yang Shuo was taken over, he saw that the eunuch looked as if he was ashamed. He knew that he was not as clean as he had died. Now that he had been rescued, he would definitely not be able to live or die, so his body could not help but tremble.
Before Zhu Houzhao could ask questions, Yang Shuo was already lying on the ground and sobbed, "I am wronged."
Zhu Houzhao looked at him coldly and said, "Is it wronged or not? You know, you are still calling for justice now. Do you think I can't let you speak?"
This sentence seems to be ordinary, but the person who heard this sentence couldn't help but shivered.
Yes, as long as you are still alive, it is not easy for you to pry your mouth open as the emperor? If you don’t eat toast and eat the punishment, the consequences will only be extremely miserable.
Yang Shuo burst into tears and wailed, "I said, I... said... I have always been indignant since I was assigned to the princess's mansion."
Speaking of this, everyone knows it.
Generally, eunuchs are just to ask for a meal and have a future. No one is willing to work in the prison of the divine palace for the rest of their lives. If they are sent out of the palace and sent to the princess's mansion, it is like an official who is sent to Qiongzhou. In this life, they can only make a fortune in the princess's mansion.
But under normal circumstances, the palace always selects some eunuchs to go to the residences of princesses, princesses, princesses, and princes. Yang Shuo is very unfortunate. He is in this list and is a tea official.
At this time, Yang Shuo said aloofly: "I am not angry. Because the princess has been scolded for her wedding these days, so she can't get rid of her resentment, so... so..."
So poisoned...
This is reasonable. It is not surprising that a desperate person does such a thing.
But Zhu Houzhao was furious, looked at Yang Shuo with a stern look, and slapped the table hard, "Is that true?"
It sounds very reasonable, but if Zhu Houzhao thought that such a thing broke out just because of the resentment of a eunuch, how could Zhu Houzhao not be angry?
"Yes, yes." Yang Shuo cried and said: "I should die, I should die, I should die, I dare not seek survival, I just want Your Majesty to give me a happy death. I have already repented..."
Zhu Houzhao was already trembling with anger, but Ye Chunqiu, who was standing beside him, felt strange. He wanted to say something, but someone smiled coldly and said, "No,"
Ye Chunqiu opened his mouth, but before he could say it, he raised his eyes in surprise and found that the person who had just spoken was Li Dongyang.
Isn’t Yang Shuo’s words exactly what Li Dongyang wants? If it was really his command, he should be secretly happy. After all, in the end, this shocking case only came to Yang Shuo and then stopped.
But when he saw Li Dongyang stroked his beard, he said righteously: "Yang Shuo, you are talking nonsense. If you are just angry, then I ask you, what kind of poison are you doing?"
"I..." Yang Shuo was stunned for a moment and said hesitantly: "I bought poison, I..."
"That's Mr. Lei." Li Dongyang said seriously: "This Mr. Lei is not as good as arsenic. Ordinary people do not know its toxicity. Only those who are proficient in pharmacology can know the medicinal properties of this poison. So how can you, a little eunuch, know the pharmacology?"
A word awakens the dreamer.
Yes, most eunuchs don’t know big words because they don’t need to read. The inner study room where eunuchs can study in the palace is not something that eunuchs can learn. They must be recommended by eunuchs from various departments. If they can read books in the inner study room, how could you, Yang Shuo, be sent to the princess’s mansion?
You are a person who doesn't know a big word, and you deal with tea every day, and you don't even have the chance to serve the princess. It's dark, so how can you know the medicinal properties of such a lieutenant poison as Mr. Lei?
"I..." Yang Shuo's face looked panicked, and his body trembled even harder.
Li Dongyang said at this time: "Okay, even if you, a damn slave, have really heard of this poison, then I want to ask you, how did you get this Mr. Lei? Where did you buy it? How much did you buy? Where did the remaining poison hide? And, how did you use the tea that Mr. Lei? Now you tell me all of it."
"Slave...I'm a servant..." Yang Shuo was completely panicked. He was speechless when Li Dongyang responded to this retort.
Li Dongyang's face was as cold as frost, his body was slightly owed, and he said seriously: "Your Majesty, if the old minister expected it was not bad, what Yang Shuo said just now was nothing but nonsense. It was clearly because he was instructed. Now that the matter was exposed, not only did he dare not reveal his true feelings, but he actually dared to conceal it. It was really hateful. This matter is not simple, and there must be someone behind him. Please take a clarification."
A clear logical questioning and conclusion immediately made people realize that Li Gong is good at making plans, and it is really true that when everyone thought that this might be just Yang Shuo's behavior, Li Gong actually saw Yang Shuo's flaws in a blink of an eye.
There is someone behind him...
Ye Chunqiu was instantly stunned.
Now, he has to re-examine his previous judgment!
Is it really not what Li Dongyang commanded? Did he really suspect that he was wrong? Otherwise, who would have dared to instruct people to do such a big thing, but he would still be unable to continue to investigate the court?
Ye Chunqiu glanced at Li Dongyang in a complicated manner, but saw that Li Dong's expression had regained his calmness. This kind of demeanor gave Ye Chunqiu a sense of wanting to hide his sharpness in every way, but still stand out.
Zhu Houzhao couldn't help but feel glad. If Li Dongyang hadn't asked such a question, he might have really believed Yang Shen's words and almost let the real murderer go to trouble. This is the most difficult thing for him to calm his anger.
Zhu Houzhao looked at Li Dongyang with gratitude, then furious and said sternly: "Okay, your dog slave, you dare to deceive me at this point. It's really a courageous. It seems that you won't cry until now. Come and go to the factory guards. I'm so angry. You're deceiving the king. I have a way to deal with you. I'm sure you can speak obediently."
Behind this sentence is heartbreaking. Who doesn’t know the methods of the factory guards? What’s more, it’s a major case that Your Majesty values so much? Yang Shuo is afraid that he really wants to live and die.
Yang Shuo shivered, and the cold sweat was as big as a bean on his forehead, and he suddenly burst into tears: "Diet crime, I am a death sentence, I dare not talk nonsense anymore, I say...I say everything..."
