Chapter 260 Find out the facts
He smacked his lips, feeling that for the first time his position was being suppressed.

After a while, Jiang Rui called Zhu Tuo out and asked, "Prince Su, you said you were poisoned, so this person should know you very well. Are there such people around you?"

"Yes, Lu Qing is the person who knows me best."

Jiang Rui looked at Zhu Tuo and continued: "Being able to poison others without others noticing must be a very high level of martial arts. Do you think there are such people around you?"

"Yes, Lu Qing is the most powerful one among my men."

"This person knows exactly where you are and what you're doing."

"Well, I will inform Lu Qing of my whereabouts and ask him to be by my side to protect me.

"Yes."

At this time, Jiang Rui was also furious and slapped the table hard.

He shouted: "Prince Su, do you mean that those servants who have always been loyal to you have poisoned your wine and tarnished your reputation?"

"Oh, I didn't."

Zhu Tuo sighed: "I just want to say that this is a group of organized and planned activities. Not many people participated. They have been following me for a long time. Their goal is to take advantage of me and ruin my reputation."

"Your Majesty asked his subordinates to come here to inquire about information for you." Xie Jin replied.

Jiang Rui turned around and said calmly: "Since it's just an assistant, don't worry too much. Everything must be done according to my rules."

Xie Jin frowned and asked: "May I ask, Commander Jiang, what step has been reached now? Has King Su been wronged, or is he unruly and wandering in a brothel?"

Jiang Rui sneered and said, "What does that matter?"

"Isn't that the point?"

Jiang Rui opened his mouth and said: "Great talent of the Xie family, you were elected in the 20th year of Hongwu, and you can be regarded as the most talented person in the Ming Dynasty. However, in the past ten years, you have been ignored by the emperor, and now you are reused to take charge of this matter. I don't know why. ?”

"Check properly?"

"Haha, you are too naive. If you want to find out the truth of the matter, there are many people who can do it. Why are you the only one willing to help me?"

Xie Jin pondered for a while, with a look of doubt on his face.

Jiang Ruiqi continued: "Whether it is true or not, we have to see what kind of ending the emperor wants. Moreover, you represent scholars. Only in this way can the subjects in the court shut up and dare not speak to each other again." King Su is gesticulating."

"You mean, the emperor wants to protect Prince Su? But now the emperor has issued an edict to Prince Su, making it clear that he must act according to the rules."

Jiang Rui shook his head, glanced at Xie Jin, who had a righteous expression on his face, and then gently stroked her chin.

He shrugged and sighed: "Xie Dacaizi, you are too young to seize this opportunity, so just follow the rules I set."

"Commander Jiang, do you have such rules?"

"That's lawlessness." Jiang Rui's eyes flashed.

Xie Jin was also smart, and he immediately heard the hidden meaning in Jiang Rui's words.The current situation is very chaotic. There are candidates coming to Beijing from all directions to take the exam. Any slightest disturbance will cause an uproar. Moreover, this matter also involves all the princes.

Moreover, judging from the rumors from the court, the emperor already had the intention of abolishing the crown prince.

Canonize Zhu Tuo as the heir to the throne?

This is going to turn upside down!
As a result, the news quickly spread in the capital, and many ministers wrote letters asking the court to reduce the power of the vassal kings and allow King Su to leave the capital as soon as possible and move to Lingnan.

"But you must do things aboveboard!"

Jiang Rui sneered and turned to leave.

"Commander Jiang, where are you going?"

Jiang Rui did not stop and said, "It's in the west of the city." "Why are you here?"

Jiang Rui said: "We have no clue about Li Jinglong's side anyway, so it's better to just follow what Prince Su said. I heard from him that the wine he drank that night seemed to have aphrodisiacs, and the wine brewed in Xiaoxiang Courtyard The wine was brewed by a restaurant in the west of the city, so of course he wants to get to the bottom of it."

"There is a lot of wine served in the restaurant every day, why is it only King Su who has problems this time?"

"In other words, King Su was deliberately led to Xiaoxiang Courtyard that day. On that day, King Su suddenly became interested in Xiaoxiang Courtyard and was also fascinated by Xia Jing, a Taoist."

"You mean, Xia Jing is the mastermind behind this matter?"

"Xia Jing was very angry with King Su, but he didn't dare. After I asked Xia Jing, I found out that this was the news that Xia Jing got from another Taoist, and then he deceived King Su into Xiaoxiang Courtyard. .”

Jiang Rui looked at Xie Jin calmly, "So, I interrogated them one by one and finally found out that person."

"where is he?"

"Yes."

Lu Xiaofeng said: "Dead?"

Jiang Rui clenched his fists and said softly: "In special moments, of course special measures must be taken. This guy has a very strict mouth and refuses to say a word. Our Jin Yiwei punishes harshly, so what does it mean to kill someone?"

"Why bother? After all, he is still alive."

"If this case cannot be found out, then he is not the only one. You know, Hu Weiyong's case involved thousands of powerful people, and the entire Kyoto was killed.

The entire city was stained red with blood. "

Xie Jin was startled and asked hurriedly: "Does this matter have a big impact?"

"This matter is much bigger than Hu Weiyong's case. The emperor's attitude is very obvious, that is, to protect Prince Su. Anyone who opposes him will be thrown into the bed of the Lord of Hell."

Xie Jin's face turned pale, and he quickly grabbed Jiang Rui's arm and said urgently: "Quick, quick, the adults' heads depend on the two of us. We must solve the case as soon as possible."

Jiang Rui ignored him and continued walking inside, and Xie Jin had no choice but to follow closely.

As soon as I stepped into the restaurant in the west of the city, I saw three counters with fine wines. Behind the counters stood more than a dozen naked and tall men. These big men were busy behind the counter, shouting something loudly from time to time.

There is a faint aroma of wine floating in the air, which is intoxicating.

When the waiters in the shop saw so many Imperial Guards walking in, they were all shocked.

Jiang Rui showed his badge and said solemnly: "This is the case of our Jin Yiwei. You take me to see the shopkeeper first."

Just as the shop waiter was about to answer, several burly men rushed up and pressed one of the shop waiters to the ground, and the remaining waiter's knees were trembling, his face was ashen-colored.

"lead the way."

So, Jin Yiwei's people just pushed the clerk down, and then swaggered back.

Inside the shop is a small courtyard. The boss is leaning under a towering tree, holding a wine bottle in his hand and humming an inexplicable song.

When the shopkeeper saw so many imperial guards rushing in, he quickly knelt on the ground.

"Excuse me, sir."

"The Royal Forest Army is on a mission!" Jiang Ruisong opened the shop waiter, took out his badge, and said: "This time, there are some things that must be clarified!"

"I'm just a small owner of a restaurant, and I haven't had any conflicts with the government. I'm afraid I've made a mistake, sir?"

"That's right."

Jiang Rui narrowed his eyes slightly and said in a cold voice, "Whatever I ask you, you should give me an honest explanation. Otherwise, not to mention that your winery will be lost, even your nine tribes will be lost." I will be buried with you, do you understand?"
