Chapter 295

Taking advantage of Ye Han's opportunity to block the way to complain, she sent someone to the Ministry of Criminal Justice with Liu Zhifei, which made a perfect preparation for blaming Tang Lan.Many people in court knew about Liu Wushuang's accident and Ye Han's blocking, which provided the best chance.
Therefore, although she was a little uneasy on the surface, she was calm in her heart.
Naturally, the Empress would not easily draw conclusions based on her few words just now, so it is reasonable to leave her behind for a detailed discussion.
As soon as she entered the imperial study room and asked all the attendants to go down, leaving only Su Hanxiao and Ling Xuan, the empress relaxed her momentum, sat behind the desk, and sighed long.
"Mother, my son was negligent for a while, unexpectedly..." Su Hanxiao lowered his head and said.
"It's none of your business." The queen waved her hand, interrupting her apology, closed her eyes, and when she opened them again, she looked tired.
"Your Majesty calm down, it's important to take care of the phoenix's body." Ling Xuan said softly.
"Hanxiao, are you sure that person is Tang Lan?" The queen ignored it, but looked directly at Su Hanxiao.
"Yesterday, I was only [-]% sure. After all, the guard had never met Tang Lan, and I only felt similar to her description, so I was not too anxious. I wanted to confirm it the next day, but today..." Su Hanxiao hesitated for a moment before saying, "Nine points."
"How do you say?" the queen said.
"It's too coincidental." Su Hanxiao replied curtly.
The queen was silent for a while, and finally nodded, acknowledging her judgment.
"Mother, the people who have met Tang Lan in Beijing, besides the servants, are Mei Ruoshui, Bailiqing, and Qin Yue from the East Palace, Lan Chenyan and Lan Ying from the Marshal's Mansion, and Shu Jie and Yuan Hong from the Yulin Army." Su Hanxiao He added, "In any case, we must first confirm the identity of this person."
"It's true." The queen looked at Ling Xuan and ordered, "You two district punishment departments have a look. Although you want to pry your mouth, you are a man after all. Don't want to endure the punishment but die."
"Follow the order." Su Hanxiao and Ling Xuan looked at each other and bowed to accept the order.
They all knew that the Queen attached great importance to Shuirou's death.In ancient times, there is no greater merit than rescuing others, and no greater crime than rebellion. Collaboration with the enemy and rebellion are almost the same. Shuirou died inexplicably, and nothing was found out. Even... I don't even know if she was wronged or not.The queen will never allow such a case that can shake the foundation of the country to come to nothing. If you don't investigate thoroughly, and investigate clearly, you still want to sleep peacefully in the future?All day long, I have to worry about who else is collaborating with the enemy and who is rebelling!
Walking out of the imperial study room, taking a breath of fresh air, the two men who served the order smiled wryly at each other.
It's all Chinese New Year, what's going on?Ling Xuan sighed at the case, and could only cheer up and said: "Your Highness, we only have less than two days, should we go to the Criminal Department immediately?"
"Let's go out of the palace through the east gate." Su Hanxiao thought for a while, "Passing by the east palace, I want Mei Ruoshui, the gentleman on the side of the east palace, to go with him. He also went to Mingyue Pass, and Tang Lan's poison..."
Although she didn't finish speaking, Ling Xuan immediately understood.
Mei Ruoshui secretly went to Mingyue Pass, and both the Empress and Mei Guijun covered him up in the palace. Ling Xuan also knew his identity as the Lord of Xuanming Palace. Thinking of the Tang Sect's unpredictable poisoning methods, he felt a little uncertain. Naturally, There is no objection to multiple masters traveling together.
"Mr. Ling please." Su Hanxiao smiled lightly.
"Don't dare." Ling Xuan hurriedly gave way.Although she is the queen's first confidant, the prince is also a prince. She has been an official for many years and has won the trust of the queen, so she will never be arrogant in such details.
"Director Ling, if Tang Lan poisoned Shuirou, what do you think?" Su Hanxiao asked as he walked.
"This..." Ling Xuan also looked embarrassed.
This matter... is not easy to handle!It's not difficult to find out the poison murder case itself, but the difficulty lies in the things behind Shuirou. How much does Tang Lan know?If we don't check this out, the matter will not end.
"It seems that we can only take one step at a time." Su Hanxiao said softly.
Ling Xuan glanced at her and let out a long sigh.
"In short, we don't have much time, so try to do what we can." Su Han said with a smile, and quickened his pace, but when Ling Xuan couldn't see behind him, he curled his lips and revealed a smile.

In the Ministry of Punishment, Zhao Jinhong has already scolded everyone up and down angrily.
The little officials at the end of the day were just baffled, and they only thought that their superiors were in a bad mood and took it out on them, but after hearing what happened early, the main officials couldn't help turning pale and breaking out in cold sweat.
There is no need for Zhao Jinhong to remind everyone, everyone knows that this time the Ministry of Criminal Justice has made a huge mess. I am afraid that Shang Shu cannot bear it alone. I don't know what to do.
Zhao Jinhong breathed a sigh of relief, and felt a little more relaxed after venting. No matter what, since the crown prince intervened, she would not let go halfway. The empress left the crown prince especially for this matter. In any case, As long as she doesn't really ask her to investigate alone!
After reviewing the files, she did see something was wrong. Originally, she thought it was a shameless fool, so she didn't think anything of it. However, once she learned the man's true identity, she really felt something was wrong. Immediately He led people to the prison, and greeted them with a whip first.
This moment really stunned Tang Lan.
Originally, when he designed this prison plan, he also considered various situations. According to common sense, the crimes he committed were so unspeakable that he would only be sentenced vaguely for disturbing the public order. Just hit the board.But what is the situation now?Even if it was murder, arson, and theft of the emperor's relatives, there was no such a battle. The woman who looked like the chief officer ordered the punishment to serve, and at the same time asked him to confess to the mastermind behind the scenes... What exactly do you want him to confess?Isn't it just pasting a few unsightly pictures, can someone instigate such a thing?
