Chapter 48 Who is the Murderer?

Yuan Zonggao never expected that a fire would burn Zhu Houcong's body, and he immediately looked at Hou Chun with sharp eyes.

At this time, even Hou Chun dared not stand up and speak for Jian Maoying. He came later and did not know the situation at that time. Based on the descriptions of the people at the scene, it sounded like Jian Maoying did it.

"Take people down and imprison them pending trial."

Yuan Zonggao didn't want to interrogate the prisoner on the spot to avoid any embarrassing things from being exposed.

He walked to Zhu Houcong's side, after all, Shizi hadn't woken up yet.

Zhang Zuo reminded: "Yuan Changshi, should the prisoner be handed over to the government or county government for trial?"

Yuan Zonggao glared at him. Even though Zhang Zuo's status in the palace was considered high, he still couldn't compare with Yuan Zonggao. That look clearly reminded him, do you understand what is meant by "family ugliness should not be publicized"?If you set fire to your own family, you still have to send it to the government for trial?Do you think things are not big enough?
Zhang Zuo lowered his head a little ashamedly, and seemed to realize that his proposal was inappropriate.

"I'm wronged, it's really not the fault of a villain..." Jian Maozhen was escorted away, and a group of craftsmen trembled, all afraid of being implicated by Jian Maozhen.

Yuan Zonggao walked up to Zhu Houcong, knelt down to examine Zhu Houcong's pulse carefully, his brows were deeply furrowed, as if he had noticed something.

Zhang Zuo said: "I have had the doctor's pulse checked before, and there is nothing serious."

Yuan Zonggao let out a "hmm", frowned and thought for a while, then looked at Zhu Hao who was sitting slumped on the ground beside him, and asked, "Why...why did he come to you?"

Even though Zhang Zuo and others had revealed Zhu Houcong's identity, Yuan Zonggao still wanted to cover it up in front of Zhu Hao.

Zhu Hao is not afraid that Yuan Zonggao will find clues. Traditional Chinese medicine pays attention to seeing, hearing, and asking. Put the theory on...

Want to find out the existence of anesthetics made of datura and aconitum in Zhu Houcong's body through pulse diagnosis?

Don't think of yourself as a demigod.

Zhu Hao lowered his head, as if admitting his mistake, and said, "Zhu Si came to play with me...We knew each other before."

"Um!?"

Yuan Zonggao frowned when he heard the words, obviously he didn't have the slightest trust in Zhu Hao, of course he would guess that Zhu Houcong happened to appear on the scene of the fire, that was Zhu Hao's residence, maybe Zhu Hao was playing tricks.

Lu Song saw Yuan Zonggao's suspicion, and quickly explained: "When the fire started, Zhu Hao was not there."

Yuan Zonggao glanced at him and asked, "Do you know if the murderer who set the fire has any accomplices?"

Lu Song was speechless for a moment.

Said that Zhu Hao and Jian Maoying were in the same group?

What a joke!
Obviously Jian Maoying wanted to burn Zhu Hao to death, but in the end he accidentally implicated Zhu Houcong...

Zhu Hao got up, with an angry expression on his face: "Since your palace doesn't trust me, why do you still let me enter the palace as a companion? Is it my fault that I rescued people from the fire with my life? Then I should have ignored it at that time." , leave straight away, to avoid the miserable end of being almost buried in the flames!"

Facing Yuan Zonggao's questioning, Zhu Hao could only try to express his anger.

Yuan Zonggao looked Zhu Hao up and down with deep eyes.

At first, he couldn't believe that a seven-year-old child could say something neither humble nor overbearing in front of so many adults, but after looking carefully, he noticed a detail, Zhu Hao's clothes were burned to black ash and holes, but Zhu Houcong's whole body did not have this kind of situation.

"What happened to him?"

Yuan Zonggao pointed to Zhu Hao and asked Lu Song beside him.

Lu Song is the party involved and a witness to everything that happened at the fire scene.

Lu Song said: "When Zhu Hao rushed out of the fire, he took a blanket soaked in water and wrapped it around...Young Master, but he didn't have it...I'll wait to put out the fire on him...The situation is extremely dangerous..."

Originally, Yuan Zonggao was full of doubts about Zhu Hao, but Lu Song's words were matched with the wet blanket on the ground, and he was speechless for a moment.

yes……

It is said that Zhu Hao set fire, there is an arsonist with solid evidence, if Zhu Hao is that person's accomplice, then why did he go to the fire to save people?

What's more, he gave Zhu Houcong the chance to survive, and his clothes were burned like this?
Totally unreasonable!
Yuan Zonggao asked himself that he was quick-witted, quick-witted, and able to penetrate human nature easily, but in Zhu Hao's body... his own insight seemed to have failed.

At this moment, a guard rushed over to report: "Yuan Changshi, my lord please go over."

This matter has alarmed Xing Wang Zhu Youzhu himself, but due to his identity, he cannot appear on the scene of the fire. In addition, due to the fire, the entire Xing Wang Mansion is in chaos at this time. If someone takes the opportunity to harm him, it will be terrible!

It is better to say that it is an interview with Yuan Zonggao than a reminder to bring Zhu Houcong back to the inner courtyard of the palace so that he can settle down, and we will talk about meeting when there is something to do.

"Lu Dianzhan."

Yuan Zonggao thought for a while, and immediately greeted Lu Song who was beside him.

Lu Song clasped his fists: "The humble job is here."

Yuan Zonggao said: "Cancel the rotation of all the guards in the Yiwei Department of the Wangfu, strengthen the guards at each gate, and send the people from the East Courtyard, the murderer... and Zhu Hao to the courtyard inside the Chunhui Gate, and wait for Queen Xing to ask for instructions Make a decision!"

……

……

Zhu Hao successfully passed Yuan Zonggao's level.

Instructed by Yuan Zonggao, Lu Song stopped being polite and escorted all the craftsmen of the East Court, one by one, to a large courtyard near the east gate of the inner court, and then began interrogation.

"Among you, is there anyone who is connected with the murderer?"

Lu Song is actually half an "insider", and his heart is full of doubts about Zhu Hao.

Among all the people, no one felt more likely than him that Jian Maoying might be wronged, but he couldn't say it, and he had to make a fuss from these craftsmen to make the case an iron case.

When all the craftsmen saw this posture, how dare they hide anything?

Immediately someone jumped out and said: "Lu Dianzhan, please be clear, I will be honest, how dare I do something violent? But that Jianmaoyong has been saying recently that he will teach Zhu Hao a lesson, saying that this is the order of Master Hou."

Hou Chun scolded: "Fuck your mother, why don't you say this is Yuan Changshi's order?"

The person who came out to report the incident curled his lips, probably he had already had a problem with Hou Chun in his heart, so he took the opportunity to add insult to injury.

Lu Song saw that this incident was quite unusual. No wonder Yuan Changshi didn't directly punish the recognized murderer Jian Maoying. Could it be that the arson was really related to Yuan Changshi?
Old Song said: "If you say that Jian Mao is not so bold, is it possible that it accidentally caught fire? There are a lot of inflammables in the warehouse, and the tung oil tank leaked before..."

Among the group of people in Dongkuayuan, Lao Song is the only one who has anything to do with "Honestly Handling".

At this time, Lao Song was the only one who spoke for Jian Maoying.

"Old man Song, you are still justifying Jian Maoying? Could it be that you are his accomplice?" Daxi, who usually called Jian Maoying brothers and sisters, stood up and questioned.

Lao Song didn't expect that such a thing could be blamed on himself, so he quickly defended: "I'll tell you the truth, you know better than me what's going on in the warehouse..."

……

……

Zhu Hao sat on one side of the steps, watching a group of people biting dogs.

The plan was perfect, and even Yuan Zonggao couldn't find any loopholes. With the wisdom of the people in front of him... he could only think in the direction of who Jian Maoying's accomplice was.

But he also knew that it was impossible for Lu Song not to doubt.

Sure enough, Lu Song secretly looked at Zhu Hao while asking the question, with an uncertain expression on his face.

This kind of interrogation without coercive means will obviously not produce any results. The people present all want to pluck themselves clean, and framing and biting people have become the norm in dialogue.

"Lu Dianzhan, Yuan Changshi ordered you to take the firefighting child...to the study hall in the backyard of the palace."

The questioning fell into a stalemate, Lu Song was in a state of desperation, and someone came here to pass on the message.

"understood!"

Lu Song could only order his subordinates to watch over the Dongkuayuan group carefully, while he personally took Zhu Hao to the backyard, which was a restricted area for most people in the palace.

……

……

It was the first time for Zhu Hao to enter the inner courtyard of the palace, and he was in an unusually peaceful mood. He knew how to answer other people's questions.

"Master Zhu, there are no outsiders here. To be honest, does this matter have anything to do with you?" Lu Song couldn't calm down the suspicion in his heart, so he brought Zhu Hao to a secluded corner, looked around, and then asked in a low voice .

Zhu Hao frowned and asked, "Lu Dianzhan, what are you talking about?"

Lu Song deliberately slowed down his pace: "What a fool Jian Maoying is, I think you and I both know that it is not difficult to frame him, you just need to throw the torch in front of him... Besides, how could the prince appear at your place by such a coincidence? Don't just deny it now, even Yuan Changshi is full of doubts about this matter, tell me, maybe I can help you."

Help you big head ghost!

Zhu Hao knew very well that Lu Song's appearance of being one with him was purely trying to trick him.

"Do you want to ask me that you were used by me to participate in the big case of 'deceiving the prince to my residence, and I set it on fire, almost burning the prince to death'?" Zhu Hao asked back.

"what?"

Lu Song turned pale with shock.

From Lu Song's performance, Zhu Hao could see that, because of his good relationship with Prince Xing's Mansion, if he knew the truth, he might have reported himself without any scruples.

Lu Song has always been reluctant to do things for Lin Baihu, but Lin Baihu may have made a promise, as long as he investigates the information and does not endanger the safety of Prince Xing's mansion, he reluctantly agrees to do so, but if he finds out that Zhu Hao set fire to , with his loyal character, there is no guarantee that he will not report.

Now Zhu Hao is telling Lu Song, don't doubt me all the time, if I am the mastermind as you said, you are the accomplice, and we are grasshoppers on the same rope.

Zhu Haodao: "Lu Dianzhan, I didn't see Jian Maoying set fire to it, I arrived at the scene last... Did you see who set fire with your own eyes?"

Lu Song shook his head.

"If you really think that I can calculate everything, if you want to set fires and save people, then you can tell King Xing... But even if you don't say it, no one in the palace will doubt it? Then what's the point if you don't say it? Woolen cloth?"

Zhu Hao's question made Lu Song completely confused.

Yes.

With no proof, why should I report Zhu Hao?
Don't say too much, and report yourself?

This is launching a ruthless attack, even cheating himself?
