Chapter 329 Conspiracy
Chapter 329 Conspiracy
Unexpectedly, this matter was disturbed by Lu Yuanpeng and even beaten up. Lin Xin'an was so angry that he embezzled a sum of money from Lu Xiangfu, but at noon on the second day of April, someone quietly broke into their home and used stickers The way of adding officials smothered Lin Xin'an to death.
The man promised her a large sum of money, taught her to lie about being illiterate, first went to the students of the Imperial College to write a pleading paper, then went to the government to sue Lu Xiang's family, and then cried to the students of the Imperial College that the officials were protecting each other and encouraged the students Play Dengwen Drum with her.
Taking this opportunity to mention again, Lu Yuanpeng beat Lin Xin'an to death because Lin Xin'an reprimanded the Princess Zhen Guo's atrocities of burning and killing the captives in Fanque Tower. The cause of this crime was the burning and killing of the captives by the princess of Zhenguo. This atrocity is unacceptable, and he is not worthy of being a princess.
If Lin Xin'an's mother refuses to comply, it will be a dead end.
Her son was dead, and she didn't want to die, so she complied, just to give herself a way out.
When Princess Dachang and Bai Qingyan analyzed the matter in detail, she told Princess Dachang that Wen Zhenkang's wife, the chief examiner of the imperial examination, had stayed in Zuoxiang's mansion for a long time.
Most of the people already know about this matter, and the eldest princess naturally knows: "Nowadays there are many rumors in the capital city, and they all say that Wen Zhenkang's wife had an affair with Li Mao, the left prime minister. Wen Zhenkang's wife is notoriously hot-tempered. , but kept her breath and didn't yell at the rumormongers, either her purpose of going to Zuoxiang Li Mao cannot be announced to the public, or this matter is true..."
She looked at the eldest princess who was sitting under the glazed lamp, fiddling with Buddhist beads, and asked, "What does grandma think?"
The Eldest Princess kept fiddling with the beads, and a smile appeared in the corners of her wrinkled eyes: "Are you pretending to be confused with grandma?"
"Mother Jiang, bring the things here."
The Eldest Princess spoke to Mother Jiang who was standing outside the screen, put the agarwood Buddha beads in her hand on the small table, and took a sip from her teacup.
Soon, Mother Jiang came in with a black lacquer box and handed it to Bai Qingyan with a smile.
Only then did Princess Dachang put down the teacup with one hand, picked up the Buddhist beads, and said calmly: "Wen Zhenkang's wife is indeed remarried with Li, but few people know that her former husband... It is the wife and younger brother of the counselor in the second prince's residence."
Bai Qingyan reached out to take the black lacquer box, before opening it, she asked: "So, this Wen Zhenkang's wife is holding Li Mao's handle, and it has something to do with the second prince?"
The eldest princess never doubted the intelligence of this granddaughter, she nodded: "I think what Wen Zhenkang's wife is holding in her hand should be the missing letter in this box."
The eldest princess' eyes fell on the embroidery of a hundred birds facing the phoenix on the screen. Under the warm and clear light, the eyes of the phoenix embroidered with silver thread were shining brightly. She squinted her eyes: "If this Wen Zhenkang's wife is a smart person, so she will definitely give this letter to Li Mao and tell Li Mao...she only wants to save her husband's life, otherwise someone will hand over all the rest of the letter to Dali Temple."
Listening to her grandmother's slow voice, she opened the box, and there were letters between Li Mao and the second prince.
Sitting quietly under the lamp, she hastily watched her pupils shrunk slightly, and the second prince's rebellion... There was actually Li Mao's handwriting.
Li Mao is the hero who escorted him...
The eldest princess said slowly: "At the beginning, the second prince failed in his conspiracy and was trapped in the Wude Gate. Li Mao sensed that there was something wrong, and was afraid that this matter would implicate himself, so he immediately went to the Weiwei Mansion, using the lives of the whole family as protection, and asked the guards Wei Tiao ordered the imperial army to rescue him! He took advantage of the fierce battle between the imperial army and the soldiers led by the second prince, and quietly led a group of troops to the second prince's mansion."
"That night, the pregnant concubine of the second prince hanged herself from the beam. After dawn, no one in the second prince's house survived, as Li Mao said...everyone in the second prince's house vowed not to surrender, and at the end of the deadly battle, he had no choice but to shoot arrows to quell the chaos , and handed in the confidential letters found from the second prince's mansion, implicating nearly half of the courtiers." The eldest princess flicked the hand of the Buddhist beads, and retracted her distant eyes, "Later, Li Mao skyrocketed, and the city of Dadu also No one dares to mention the Second Prince again."
Before Bai Qingyan read the letters, she closed the black lacquer box, lowered her eyes, and tapped lightly on the black lacquer box.
If so, then Li Mao was actually the biggest winner in the previous life.
He instigated the second prince to conspire against him, but the second prince failed. Not only was he not implicated, but he was on the rise.
Later, he joined forces with King Liang, and he even took control of the entire court, secretly inciting King Liang to rebel.
This Li Mao is really interesting...
He is still unsatisfied with being the prime minister of the left, what is he plotting?
Since Li Mao has such a big handle in the hands of the Bai family, then... Let Li Mao sit in the position of left minister for a while. It's good for someone who doesn't understand to sit in this position.
At the same time, Lu Jin was kneeling and sitting under the lamp, sorting out the imperial examination fraud case and Lin Xin'an's death case on the case table.
Lu Jin was sorting it out, and suddenly took out a blank sheet of paper, telling the time and reason of Lin Xin'an's conflict with Lu Yuanpeng in Fanque Tower, the time of Lin Xin'an's death, and the time when Lin Xin'an's mother beat the drum, and said everything List it on a piece of paper.
He also focused on Lin Xin'an's words in Fanquelou, and the words of criticizing the cruelty of Zhen Guo Princess when the person behind it ordered Lin Xin'an's mother to knock on the board.
Thinking that Lin Xin'an's mother knocked the Dengwen drum on the same day as his son Xue Renyi knocked the Dengwen drum for the imperial examination fraud case, so he also listed the time when the imperial examination fraud case knocked the Dengwen drum.
In the blink of an eye, a bold idea came to Lu Jin's mind.
He drew a pen and connected Lin Xin'an's death with the imperial examination fraud case.
The trial of Lin Xin'an's case was over, and it seemed that it was aimed at Princess Zhen Guo, but why didn't the people behind Lin Xin'an make a big fuss and get rid of Lin Xin'an just after Lu Yuanpeng beat Lin Xin'an?
But it's not too early or too late... Do you have to wait until Xue Renyi beats the Dengwen drum to catch up with the scientific examination fraud case? too coincidental...
Before the imperial examination fraud case happened, there was a murder case of Lu Xiang's young grandson. Whether it is the court or the people, attention will be paid to this case!
However, if it happens together with the imperial examination fraud case, it will inevitably reduce the attention of this case, which is unreasonable.
The only explanation is that the person behind it intends to kill two birds with one stone, reduce the attention of the imperial examination fraud case, and at the same time tarnish the reputation of the princess of the country, and even better win the position of the princess of the county of the country.
Looking at the entire metropolis, who...would hate Princess Zhen Guo so much, and want to cover up the imperial examination fraud case so much?
Lu Jin squinted his eyes, remembering that his wife and daughter came back from the polo game on the sixth day of April, and gossip about the fact that the wife of Wen Zhenkang, the main examiner of the imperial examination, stayed in Zuoxiang's mansion for a long time.
Little ancestors, there is one watch in the early morning, and the other two watch, little ancestors, come and see at noon! Mercury is really retrograde recently... There are too many things at home. sorry...
