Civil and military officials of the Manchu dynasty, begging me to ascend the throne

Chapter 29 The Death of Wang Su
Three hours later, Dali Temple

Qian Donglin and Zuo Shaoqing went back to Dali Temple one after another with sad faces, and everyone who hadn't left Dali Temple also had sad faces, like a bereaved dog.

"How are you gentlemen?" Qian Donglin sat on the upper seat and looked at Zuo Shaoqing of Dali Temple who had just entered.

Zuo Shaoqing sat down firmly after helping the back of the armchair, and said with a wry smile: "Teacher Ji is seriously ill, and Ji's manor doesn't see any visitors..."

"Sick?" Qian Donglin thought to himself that it was a coincidence that he was sick, and then asked suspiciously, "Then Shaoqing should come back before me, right?"

Zuo Shaoqing stroked his graying beard, pondered and said: "It should be like this, but... I'm afraid my lords don't know?"

After looking around at the crowd, he pretended to be calm and continued: "The princess's mansion is surrounded by the imperial army, and Taifu Ji's grandson, the consort of the princess, was kicked out of the mansion by Commander Li."

Then he let out a long sigh: "Poor Taifu Ji has been working hard for the court all his life, and the one who was hit by this incident can't afford to be ill today... The old minister can't lick his face and ask Taifu Ji to advise on the Dali Temple..."

"It should be so, it should be so..." The people in the hall said one after another.

Immediately afterwards, everyone's eyes focused on Qian Donglin.

"My lord, will you gain anything from going to the cabinet this time?" Zuo Sicheng asked.

Qian Donglin nodded first, then shook his head again.

Everyone was puzzled and asked: "My lord, is there a plan or no plan?"

Qian Donglin said with a bitter face: "I told Mr. Ge Lao about everything in detail, but Mr. Wang Ge doesn't need to be dismissed from office to worry about it. Let me go back to Dali Temple and say that I will find my own way later..."

As he spoke, Qian Donglin spread his hands, expressing that he had tried his best...

Everyone was thinking about what Wang Ge said, "I have my own way" and was frowning. Suddenly, a strong man in black clothes stepped into the main room quickly, and said with a happy face:

"My lords, you don't need to think about it any longer. A decision has been made on this matter."

These words made Qian Donglin, the chief minister of the Dali Temple, stand up and shouted: "Speak carefully, but the Holy One has withdrawn the oral order?"

All the adults in the room stood up from their seats with surprise on their faces.Is there a way to deal with this?Don't they have to lose their heads and official hats?

The youngest and most powerful You Shaoqing pulled him back and asked, shouting: "Please tell the adults in detail."

After being caught by You Shaoqing, this person walked to the center of the room. Facing the eyes of his immediate superiors, this person did not dare to hesitate, and quickly said: "My lords, that Wang Suwang servant has died in In prison. The grown-ups don't have to worry about it anymore."

This big news made You Shaoqing who was holding on to the visitor couldn't help but let go, his face was stunned and dull.

Qian Donglin came back to his senses the fastest, and quickly asked, "How did he die? Who did it? Could it be you..."

Before Qian Donglin finished speaking, this person waved his hands again and again. This is a very important matter and they must not get involved.

"Your Excellency, be careful!"

Only then did Qian Donglin, who was stopped, realize that he almost said the wrong thing, and hurriedly asked with a smile on his face:
"Don't be too tight-lipped, finish talking quickly."

The man smiled wryly and said, "My lord, I really don't know... It's just that when the people below checked the room, they found that Wang Shilang had already died in prison..."

As he said this, his face suddenly became mysterious, and his voice also softened and said: "The villain guesses that...may have something to do with...."

This strong man has quite a brain, and when he said that, he pointed to the sky with his finger.

Everyone looked at me and I looked at you, but they didn't dare to say a word.

The strong man said with a wry smile: "If adults don't believe me, follow me to the prison to have a look."

Said a group of people hurriedly walked to the imperial prison of Dali Temple.

Dali Temple has a separate imperial prison, but because most of the prisoners are prisoners sent by the local government, the guards are not strict.It's not like the heavy prison of the Ministry of Criminal Justice, it's a place where mosquitoes can't even fly in.

Qian Donglin and his group walked silently along the prison cell to the deepest part.

After a while, the strong man who led the way stopped, pointed to a cell and said, "This is it..."

From the looks of everyone, isn't this just an ordinary prison cell?What's so strange?
Wang Su's body had been carried out of the cell by the supervising cell boss, and it was indeed an ordinary cell that appeared in front of everyone.

But You Shaoqing noticed something on the table near the wall that shouldn't have appeared with sharp eyes.

You Shaoqing pointed at the table without saying a word, and everyone looked over there with horror in their hearts.

The extra things on the table were a copper tray with a piece of white silk on it, and a jug that had been touched.

As for the wine glass, there were faintly broken pieces of porcelain on the prison floor.

Qian Donglin wanted to say something, but he pursed his lips and made no sound after all.

"Let's go." Zuo Shaoqing solemnly greeted everyone and left the prison of Dali Temple.After taking them out of the prison door, everyone felt the spring breeze, and the prison was indeed gloomy and cold.

Under the gaze of everyone, the 'boss' Dali Temple Secretary Qian Donglin said, "This is the end of this matter, and I will report back to His Majesty. My lords, continue to deal with the case at hand."

"Yes, my lord"

"Yes, my lord." Everyone handed Qian Donglin away who was walking in a hurry, and then went back to the house to deal with official business.

……

Jifu
Ji Tingfan watched in disbelief as the guards escorted him back to his residence, and then disappeared in front of Ji Tingfan on horseback.

This series of incidents made Ji Tingfan, who is usually quite refined, almost want to curse.

Ji Tingfan turned his head and entered Ji's mansion, hoping that his family could help him find a way.

What's going on here?His father-in-law, the emperor, suddenly surrounded his house and threw him out.

This is unprecedented!
He is a son-in-law and has never rebelled, so why...

Ji Tingfan was still full of thoughts, but when he was told that his grandfather was seriously ill, he burst into tears and couldn't hold back his tears.

He broke into the house, only to see Mrs. Ji on the bed already pale and angry.

Looking at this scene, he just felt dazzled.Ji Tingfan didn't care about anything, he walked quickly to the bed.

"Grandpa, why didn't you tell me earlier... It's my grandson who is unfilial and never served you by your side every day." As he said, Ji Tingfan couldn't help sobbing.

Ji Taifu opened his lips several times, but the final voice was as light as a gossamer

"Stop sails...stop sails"

"Grandpa, grandson is here..." Ji Tingfan hurriedly held Grandpa's hand.

"Grandpa already knows about you..."
