Chapter 94 Survival is Difficult
Shen Boyu didn't get up, but straightened his back, and swore back: "If you don't succeed, you will be benevolent. If I just choose to live by myself and let the villain Shen Boyi gain power, the people of Chu State will have a difficult life, and the people will live in poverty!
Therefore, Bo Yu is willing to give it a try for Qi Chu and himself!May the Holy Spirit grant it! "

After finishing speaking, there was another sound.

The emperor nodded, and agreed with approval: "Okay, I promise you, since I want to return to Chu secretly, I will give you a secret decree, you can leave tomorrow!"

Shen Boyu got his wish, thanked the Lord Long En, and left with a secret decree.

Here, Gao Qiji seems to be a little absent-minded in guarding the capital. In recent days, not only has there been no abnormality in the capital, but it has become more stable than before, and there are even fewer stealing and fighting.

Li Yulengyue didn't hear from Li Siqi yet, so he began to fidget and feel upset.

I remembered that the emperor ordered to re-investigate the case of Ji's family.

After so many days, there must be some clues.

Arranging for Yue Yang to continue to strengthen the city defense, he went to Dali Temple alone.

Guo Yingmei, Minister of Dali Temple, saw King Shuo coming in person, and hurriedly led the crowd to meet him at a trot, bowed down and smiled apologetically, and said, "Your Majesty is here, I'm sorry to welcome you, but I hope to make amends!"

Gao Qiji didn't have time to be courteous with him, so he went straight to the point, "There's no need to be too polite, you both keep busy, and just stay with those responsible for re-investigating Ji Hong's old case!"

Guo Yingmei was a little surprised, but still politely let Gao Qiji take the seat, ordered someone to take out a stack of files, handed them over with both hands, and replied truthfully: "This case was specially ordered by the Holy One to re-investigate, so I went to handle it myself. He was dismissed from office, because the case was so long in the past, it was extremely troublesome to find witnesses and physical evidence, and it was not found whether he was framed by others.

According to the case records, he was implicated and imprisoned because the anti-pregnancy medicine he prescribed to Yungui people went wrong, which caused Yungui people to give birth to a double-headed monster. He also hanged himself with hatred! "

Seeing Gao Qiji's dissatisfied expression and furrowed brows, he hastened to add: "However, it's not that nothing has been discovered. After a lot of effort, the lower officials managed to find the jailer who was on duty the day Ji Hong hanged himself.

He said that before Ji Hong's death, there was a feminine-looking man who went to visit him. He must have told Ji Hong the news that Ji's family had been exterminated. "

Feminine looking?Lei Ming once said that the man in blue he saw, that is, Linghu Zhinian, could not distinguish between men and women from the back. Could this prisoner be Linghu Zhinian?
In order to prove his idea, Gao Qiji blurted out, "Is that man in blue?"

"Exactly!" Guo Yingmei nodded repeatedly.

Gao Qiji flipped through the files, a little suspicious, "Are you sure?"

Guo Yingmei took out the jailer's statement again, "My lord, please have a look."

Gao Qiji took it over, read it carefully, and wrote in the record: "Ji Hong is not a major criminal, so he is allowed to visit. On that day, a man with a soft face and few words, a man in blue clothes and empty hands came to visit. About half a stick of incense time..."

Guo Yingmei explained while watching his words: "At the time of questioning, the jailer said that the visitor was wearing a blue shirt. I also raised doubts. After all, it has been more than ten years, how could it be possible to remember so clearly? The jailer explained that because of the man's He purposely took a few extra glances at his appearance and manner of speaking, so he was deeply impressed!"

That being the case, it is certain that it is Linghu Zhinian!
What does he have to do with Ji Hong?Why did Li Siqi say that the concubine mother was involved with the murderer, and what is the relationship between the concubine mother and Linghu Zhinian?

All kinds of questions came to mind instantly, and Gao Qiji tapped the armrest of the chair rhythmically with his fingers.

It seems that I have to talk to my concubine!

After thinking for a moment, Gao Qiji handed back the dossier and the prison guard's confession record, and then asked, "Has the case of Ji's extermination been re-investigated?"

Guo Yingmei took out another stack of files, "Your Majesty, the case of exterminating the family has been clarified, and the whole family of Ji's family was murdered as scapegoats. The remnants of the bandits originally wanted to avenge Lord Ji Hongchang who lived in Qiyu Street and was in charge of suppressing the bandits.

Maybe the same Lord Ji lived in the same street, and the gangsters got confused! "

Gao Qiji flipped through the file at a glance, thoughtful.

The official ranks of the two people are very different. After a little inquiring, it is impossible to confuse and kill by mistake, unless someone killed someone with a knife and deliberately led the wrong way!
Could there be another possibility that Ji Hong's medicine went wrong and he was implicated in prison, Ji's family was wrongly retaliated, and Ji Hong's death with hatred was planned by the same person?

It's all Linghu Zhinian!

Gao Qiji was taken aback by his own guess. If that was the case, that person is really terrifying, and I am afraid that Qixun alone would be difficult to deal with!

Go to the concubine mother first, and then discuss it with the emperor father.

He got up and was about to leave. Guo Yingmei heaved a sigh of relief and stood up to see off the guests. He asked again: "Do you think these two cases are really as simple as they appear?"

Guo Yingmei replied tremblingly: "My lord, I think these two cases seem to be clear and clear, but in fact there are many doubts. They seem to be unrelated, but in fact they are inseparable. Therefore, I will continue to investigate, to live up to the high expectations of the Holy One, and to be wronged." Give me an explanation!"

Gao Qiji's black face: It's not the same as not saying anything!
After waving his hand, Gao Qiji walked out, "Your Majesty Guo, you've worked hard, please stop! My king bids farewell!"

Guo Yingmei hurriedly cupped her hands and bowed in salute, "Congratulations to the prince!"

He didn't stand up straight until Gao Qiji was far away, raised his sleeves to wipe the sweat dripping from his forehead, and let out a long breath.

Gao Qiji went straight to the Jinle Palace of Concubine Xian without stopping.

Concubine Xian was still lying on the bed, Gao Qiji rarely came to her place except for routine greetings.

But now is not the time to pay her respects, Gao Qiji's arrival made her both surprised and happy, but also a little uneasy.

Gao Qiji bowed to Concubine Xian, and Concubine Xian gave him a seat to watch tea.

Seeing that although she looked weak, she was still in good spirits, Gao Qiji felt relieved a little.

He took a sip of tea without beating around the bush, "Concubine Mu, I have something to ask you!"

Concubine Xian's heart skipped a beat when she heard the words, is that the thing?
She calmed down, she smiled palely, and said: "Ji'er ask, mother and concubine will know everything!"

"Does my concubine know Linghu Zhinian?" Gao Qiji asked, staring at her intently.

Concubine Xian seemed to have anticipated what he was going to ask, without any expression of surprise, Hao Hao did not avoid his probing gaze, looked back at him, and said affirmatively: "Yes!"

"What is the relationship between the concubine and him?" Gao Qiji asked again.

Concubine Xian stroked her slightly messy temple hair, straightened her slightly wrinkled clothes, sighed, and said quietly: "He grew up with me just like my elder brother, until I was selected to come to the Qi Kingdom to marry him. I didn't want to give up, so I robbed the relative on the way to get married, but of course it failed, he was beaten all over his body and almost died..."

After a pause, Concubine Xian continued with a choked voice: "Two years later, he miraculously appeared in the palace, and somehow he learned the tricks of a charlatan, and once won your father's favor!
But ever since he predicted your father that 'there must be seven dragon girls to get a dragon son', your father has been a little displeased.

At that time, there were indeed six princesses in Qi State. I was pregnant with you, and Concubine Kang was pregnant more than a month before me. "
