Jin Tingjiao

Chapter 303 Where is the evidence?

That's weird.

Since there was no abnormality, why did Ji suddenly hang himself?
She admitted that subconsciously she still believed that she did not commit suicide, but homicide.

First of all, the timing of her accident was not right, why did it happen when both Shen's father and son and Xiao Huai were going to the court?
Secondly, Ji's motive for committing suicide. Although she never regarded Shen Yan as her own daughter, she still has two sons after all. It is impossible for her not to know the consequences of writing such a suicide note.

With this suicide note, Shen Chongguang couldn't wash it away even when he jumped into the Yellow River.

But if Yang Qian brought it to the court, then as long as Dali Temple sent people to confirm that Ji's death and handwriting were authentic, Shen Chongguang's black hat could basically be taken off by the court!

If Shen Chongguang loses his official position, then Shen Qu and Shen Mao will not be able to achieve any good results.

Back then when Shen Liang was just fighting with Shen Mao, Ji went to Lixiangyuan to fight fiercely, how could she not think about her son?
How could he want them to be implicated?
Therefore, Ji had no motive to commit suicide and make a false accusation at this time.

The last point of doubt, of course, is that the target of the suicide note is too clear, directly pointing to Shen Chongguang!
It was precisely because of the clear purpose that she had to think deeply about the matter. Wen Yuanzheng tried to use the palace banquet to cheat Shen Chongguang but failed, and was then summoned by Empress Dowager Zheng to scold him.

He didn't move at all afterwards, how could it be called normal?If Shen Chongguang was dismissed from office today, wouldn't he and Han Dun be satisfied?

Based on the above, the problem comes again!

How was the Ji family killed when no outsiders entered?How did this suicide note survive?

She suddenly raised her head: "Where are the two servants beside Ji?!"

If it is confirmed that no outsiders entered, then Ji's death is probably related to those two servants!

There is no one else in a small family, and Ji's temper is easy to be controlled by others. If these two people around her join forces to harm her, it can be said that no one will know it!

Both Wang'er and Chen Yan were startled by her sudden voice, and immediately understood what she meant, and quickly raised their eyes to search around.

Wang'er ran around and came back and said, "It's long gone! Officers and soldiers are also looking for them! It is said that Juan Cai escaped after the incident!"

Shen Xi's heart began to sink, and she felt that the murderer had thought of everything she could think of.

Now even if she believes that those two people are the murderers, there is nothing she can do. Yang Qian went to the court, and on the surface it seems that the evidence is convincing, Wen Yuanzheng and the others will most likely insist on the court deciding a result.

How could she find evidence of Ji's murder in such a short period of time and clear Shen Chongguang's name?

If she can't find it, according to the tacit understanding between Han Dun and Queen Mother Zheng, she has almost seen Shen Chongguang's end, and Shen Ruopu might be implicated.Not to mention pulling down Wen Yuanzheng's party!
Although Prince Yan's Mansion has strength in the court, but in the face of "evidence", if Xiao Huai forcibly protects the Shen family, it is ignoring the law of the king!

"Go and find out what's going on in the palace first! Then—"

Speaking of this, she swallowed her saliva, shook her head again, and said: "Then hurry up and go to the Marquis of Weiyuan, and ask Mrs. Shizi to help send someone to find the two people beside Ji!"

Originally, she wanted to ask He Lanzhun for help, but based on his position between King Yan and his son, it's better not to embarrass him.

At five o'clock, the drums of the city tower sounded, and all the civil and military officials entered the city gate in a team.

The little emperor sat on the dragon chair, and in the bead curtain behind him, the queen mother also took her seat.

As soon as Hu Wei raised his head, the little emperor saw him.

There is nothing new under the sun, and things come and go.

Seeing that the sky was getting brighter and the excerpts were almost finished, Hu Wei suddenly stood up and said, "The minister has a book to play."

When Li Qiu, the head of the imperial court, waved his hand, he said in a loud voice: "I want Shen Chongguang, a member of the Ministry of Rites, to favor his concubine and destroy his wife, abandon the chaff, poison his wife's family, and disregard human relations!"

These words were like a thunderbolt!
The entire hall was bombarded with discussions. Although Shen's father and son were prepared, they were still stunned at this moment!

Xiao Huai quickly looked at Hu Wei coldly, but before he could speak, an eunuch came over and said, "Master Su has something to report outside."

He looked at the Shen family father and son again, and came out of the hall.

Su Yan, who was standing on the jade steps, rushed up to meet him, and said, "Qi Jiu heard the news from outside the palace that Mrs. Ji is dead!" After speaking, he quickly explained the matter clearly.

Xiao Huai's expression turned cold, he looked back at the hall, and suddenly understood Hu Wei's actions!
He frowned and said: "Go find the person who has been staring at Wenfu recently, who in Wenfu has Wen Yuanzheng's trust the most, take him outside the Meridian Gate and wait!"

After Su Yan left, he returned to the palace, and Hu Wei was still complaining endlessly.

Although Shen Chongguang could still stand still, there was already sweat on his forehead.

The little emperor looked at Xiao Huai, Xiao Huai frowned slightly, and was also looking at Shen Chongguang.

Although the news brought by Su Yan did not mention the content of the suicide note, judging from Hu Wei's report, it has already been inseparable from the whole inside story of Ji's divorce!

He said: "So Mr. Hu must have convincing evidence?"

"Since the lower official played the bomb, there is evidence." Hu Wei said in a sonorous tone, and presented the paper to the little emperor, "Shen Chongguang not only neglected the bad things, favored the concubine, but also charged the ex-wife, Mrs. Ji, with unwarranted charges.

"The Shen family moved the Ji family out of the Shen residence, and used their power to accuse his wife's family, the Ji family, as well. The Ji family's elder brother, Ji Peng, was imprisoned, and his father, Ji Shihui, was also implicated.

"Shen Chongguang even divorced the Ji family from his clan as soon as he returned to Beijing. There are many people who know about this matter!"

"Your Majesty!" Shen Chongguang hurried out of the queue when he heard this, and said: "Ji's family was dismissed for committing seven crimes, and the minister did not violate the rules!

"As for the concubine, Qiao, the minister had already accepted her as a concubine before receiving the letter of appointment. Later, he was promoted to be a concubine by his father's order. There is no conflict between Ji's dismissal and Qiao's!"

Wen Yuanzheng stood up: "Master Shen said that Mrs. Ji committed seven crimes, but which one of the seven crimes did he commit?"

The little emperor looked at them with pursed lips, but didn't say anything.

Shen Chongguang clenched his teeth, but he didn't speak for a long time.

Shen Qu and Chen Yan are grown up, and Shen Yan is even more of a girl, and has a marriage contract with the Mei family.

Based on his friendship with the Mei family and the character of the Mei family, even if the Ji family is divorced, it is not difficult to keep the marriage.

But if Ji's self-stealing scandal is made public, how can the Mei family's scholars accept that their daughter-in-law is a woman taught by such a poisonous woman? !
No matter how stupid he is, he can't ruin the future of his own daughter without hesitation!

"Back to the emperor, the Ji family has a surly temperament. During the presidency of Zhongfei, he and his brother Ji Peng worked together to plot the Shen family's wealth and enrich their own pockets. After getting evidence of her greed for ink through the mansion, the minister decided to move her out of the mansion.

"However, she was obsessed with her obsession. After returning to Beijing, Shen Chongguang wrote a letter of divorce."

After all, Shen Ruopu has been in the officialdom for a long time and knows the seriousness. Hu Wei must have come prepared to impeach the Shen family for poisoning the Ji family.

If they conceal it again, I'm afraid they will make a big fuss about it.
