Xuanmen Xiaoguo Shi is divination again

Chapter 698

When Chao Ling was still alive, did he leave anything that shouldn't be left behind...

Zhu Sheng, who had been pacing in the room, stopped when he heard the sound, squinted his eyes and raised his hand to rub his chin.

According to his understanding of Chao Ling, although this person is very ambitious and greedy, he can really be cautious and prudent when doing things.

Otherwise, he wouldn't have sat in the position of Minister of Rites for nearly ten years and amassed millions of fortunes before being caught by Emperor Yun Jing and taking the opportunity to slap him down.

That being said... With Chao Ling's temperament, he should have held a lot of grounds against them and kept a lot of proof in secret.

"But back then... when the Minister's Mansion of the Ministry of Rites was sealed up by His Majesty, didn't we send people to search carefully for the Mansion of the Minister?" Zhu Sheng frowned, and his voice was soft, "If I remember correctly, at that time we It's like nothing happened."

"At that time, we really got nothing." Liao Zhen nodded, his eyes were already heavy, and it would become more and more gloomy. "And it's not just us—everyone, including His Majesty, got nothing."

"But nothing was found. It doesn't mean that Chao Ling really didn't leave behind any material that would be fatal to us."

"Then you mean...he handed them over before execution?" Zhu Sheng turned his eyes, his brows furrowed deeper and deeper, "Is this impossible? Not a word came out."

"At that time, I was afraid that he would not be able to stand the sentence, so I specially bought a lot of jail guards to monitor him twelve hours a day—as long as he dared to reveal the slightest secret, they would immediately give him a dose. Dumb medicine."

"Later, as far as I know, he pleaded guilty happily. Apart from the usual interrogation, His Majesty did not send anyone to torture him. As for those dumb drugs... they were never used."

"Besides, there was not much paper and pen in the prison that day. After the death row prisoner was dragged out of the sky prison, the jailer would immediately clean out the cell... He didn't have the opportunity to write any letters to anyone."

Zhu Sheng scratched his head: "Old Liao, could it be that you are thinking too much?"

"Old Zhu, I think it's because you're being too naive!" Liao Zhen sneered coldly, wishing he could go up and grab Zhu Sheng's stupid head, "I mean, Chao Ling is very naive!" It is possible that before the big fraud case came out, those handles and physical evidence had already been handed over to others for safekeeping."

"It's said that 'I often walk by the river, so I don't get my shoes wet'. Then Chao Ling is not a fool, how could he not hold back at all?"

"If I were Chao Ling, at least I would have to divide the materials into several parts and hide them separately!"

"So, what I want you to think about is this, it's not a jailer or something to write a letter!" Liao Zhen cursed, but finally couldn't hold back, got up and slammed Zhu Sheng's head heavily, "Do you understand?"

"Hey, why are you an old bastard now that you are so unrefined that you start fighting with others at every turn?" Zhu Sheng yelled while holding his head in his arms. Se, "So..."

"Old Liao, do you suspect that Chao Ling gave those things...to his wife and children?"

"I remember that although His Majesty beheaded Chao Ling back then, he never moved his family's women and children, but ordered them to be sent back to his wife's family."

"Yes, that's what I mean!" Liao Zhen spat lowly, "Such a simple question, Lao Zhu, you actually thought about it for so long!"

"Can't you just tell me such a simple question?" Zhu Sheng poked his neck at Liao Zhen, "I have to think—I don't have the brains you have."

"I'm afraid that if you don't use your brain anymore, your brain will be useless." Liao Zhen resented, and kept poking Zhu Sheng's forehead with his fingers, "You don't even look at your outrageous appearance now!"

"It doesn't seem like I've lived like this for most of my life. If you and Lao Song are like each other and have a brain, I will get it." Zhu Sheng muttered, and from the corner of his eyes, he saw Liao Zhen grinding his old teeth and clenched his fist, and hurriedly rubbed his fists together. Turn your nose away from your face.

"Then what, the most critical issue now is that His Majesty has grounded me right now, and you have to put a lot of eyeliner on the side of your prime minister's mansion. Shu Yun and Yuan'er are also unable to move."

"—Who should we send to solve the mess left by Chao Ling?"

"You can't call Lao Song, can you?"

"That old guy has always been very timid, let alone assassins and dead men, he doesn't even have two proper hidden guards in his house, and I don't know how he got here all these years." Zhu Sheng said, After finishing speaking, he secretly raised his eyelids and glanced at Liao Zhen in front of him. Seeing that he didn't seem to want to get angry, he breathed a sigh of relief.

"Okay, Old Zhu, forget about me being so stupid." Liao Zhen closed his eyes, sighed sadly, and then suddenly raised his voice, "The one who was grounded was you, not your son, nor your grandson!"

"Chengxu went out to play in the mansion two days ago, hasn't he returned to the mansion at this time? Yuan'er and the others are being watched closely, and you are not as tight as that!"

Liao Zhen couldn't bear it anymore, so he picked up a volume of scriptures by the table, rolled it into a small tube, and hit Zhu Sheng's head one after another.

"You won't, you won't send someone to deliver a letter to Chengxu, or directly send a letter to Chengxu, so that he can take a trip to the south of the Yangtze River by the way—" Liao Zhen gritted his teeth, "That's all ?”

"I got it, I got it, stop beating, eh, stop beating!" Zhu Sheng ran around holding his head.

Liao Zhen's knock on his brain had already made a buzzing sound, and this time it was even more numb from the brain to the scalp.

However, he felt wronged, and he didn't dare to resist at all, so he kept begging for mercy while running around, and by the way, he called the servants of the mansion to catch two fat and strong carrier pigeons, and after the beating, he slipped his head and wrote Letter to go also.

"So, the Marquis of Anping and the others really wanted to get rid of Chao Ling's wife, children, and mother?"

In the middle of the night, at the top of the Fulan Pavilion, Grand Master Mu stared and exclaimed in a low voice, disbelief written all over his little face.

"The brains of those old things are alright?" Mu Xici said, wrinkling his face, "Aren't they rushing to give us our witnesses!"

"Ham, who knows, maybe this is courage." Mo Junli spread his hands in response, shrugging his shoulders, "Anyway, the old man sent people to surround the Anpinghou's mansion after noon, and those two old things released the messengers in the evening." Pigeon."

"The people in Guanfeng Pavilion not only intercepted the two pigeons, but also fed them two more mouthfuls of bird food - if there is no accident, I guess, Zhu Chengxu will receive the mail from his grandfather as soon as tomorrow night." letter."

"My people will be able to catch them in about three to four days."

"Tsk, when you think about it, those old things are really unlucky." Master Mu smacked his lips quietly, and let out a sigh of relief, "Why did they suddenly crash into this chain set up by you and His Majesty. "

"Too bad—"
