Chapter 54 Let him investigate the case
Shen Yu'an was furious, "Your Majesty, you are deliberately going against me, right?"

Ming Cangyu was in a very good mood, his dark eyes were filled with dark light, and he had a serious expression, "How could it be? This king considers issues at the national level, serving the country and the people, and has absolutely no selfish motives."

The emperor's loud voice came, "It seems that King Beiyi and I have thought of something. For the sake of diplomatic relations between the two countries, I have ordered the withdrawal of the guards and the freedom of the fourth prince of the Western Yuan Dynasty."

Shen Yu'an frowned, looked at the emperor who was approaching, suppressed his emotions, and saluted, "My dearest minister, I see you, Your Majesty. May Your Majesty be blessed with peace and prosperity!"

"No courtesy!" The emperor's expression was complicated, "Don't be sad, Second Miss Shen. I will let people investigate the right and wrong. If the assassination is really the fault of the fourth prince of the Western Yuan Dynasty, I will not tolerate it and will definitely give justice to Prince Shen."

Shen Yu'an's expression was indifferent, just listen to some of the words and don't take them seriously, "My dear, thank you, Your Majesty."

"My father let him go so easily, it seems that our Beiyu country is too easy to bully." Ming Cangyu said calmly.

The emperor looked at him with deep eyes, "I thought you had grown up and were still so impulsive. Countries should try to avoid disputes. Once conflicts intensify and lead to war, it will be the common people who suffer."

"I'm not acting on my own initiative, it's because my father is too cautious. Many times, tolerance cannot bring peace, but only makes the other party push forward." Ming Cangyu said with a cold tone, "In my opinion, fighting is the right thing to do!"

The suffering of the people is temporary. By incorporating the enemy's territory into the Beiyu Kingdom through battle formations and unified governance, the people will be completely free from war and benefit future generations.

This time, Shen Yuan strongly agreed with what Ming Cangyu said. Retreating and forbearing would never bring peace, so just fight.

In the previous life, when the emperor died and the prince ascended the throne, the Western Yuan Kingdom took the initiative to stir up trouble and launched a war.

The Shen family, which had been stationed on the border of the Western Yuan Dynasty for many years, had all their families slaughtered, and the Ye family's army was on top, resulting in repeated defeats.

Later, she disguised herself as a man and went to the battlefield to participate in the war. As the leader of the army, the Ye family made many mistakes in decision-making, resulting in heavy losses to the army and numerous casualties. She almost died on the battlefield several times.

After fighting many times, she gained experience. She also studied military books diligently, practiced many times, and made many suggestions. She gradually reversed the defeat and was promoted herself.

But she was never as good as her father and brother, so every battle was difficult.

After ten years of fighting, she became a general and was able to force the Western Yuan Kingdom back and gain a short-term peace.

As soon as she helped Ming Shaoyin ascend the throne, Xiyuan ignored the peace agreement signed between the two countries and launched a war, hoping to take advantage of the civil strife in Beiyu and catch Beiyu country off guard.

The Western Yuan Kingdom is that kind of country that is completely unethical.

To deal with them, direct use of force to deter them is the best way.

"Be careful what you say and do!" The emperor said with a majestic tone and a serious face, "Why did you enter the palace?"

"Take Miss Shen Er to see my father for medical treatment."

The emperor's expression softened, "I told you not to bother." He sighed, "Don't just stand there. Let's go into the imperial study."

The emperor entered the imperial study first.

Ming Cangyu followed closely behind.

Shen Yu'an walked at the back.

After entering the imperial study, the emperor asked someone to sit down.

Shen Yuan thanked him and sat down properly.

"Regarding the assassination case on the day Shen Shizi was killed, I ordered the prince to lead the Dali Temple to conduct a thorough investigation. More than ten days have passed, and there has been no progress. Without evidence, the fourth prince of the Western Yuan Dynasty has been under house arrest, which caused dissatisfaction among the envoys of the Western Yuan Dynasty and criticized the two The relationship between the two countries is not good." The emperor said solemnly.It's like giving an explanation.

"Has the prince found out how the assassin sneaked into the palace?" Ming Cangyu asked.

The emperor's face darkened, this was what disappointed him the most, "Not yet!"

I don’t even know how the assassin got into the palace. How can there be any safety in such a huge palace?

Ming Cangyu sneered, "If the assassin climbed over the wall and entered the palace without being discovered by the Imperial Guards, and could come and go freely, inferring that the assassin was highly skilled in martial arts, then more than one Shen Huaizhi would have died at that time, and my father would not have been able to escape."

"Father is well. The assassin committed suicide by biting the poison on his tongue after being captured. Firstly, it shows that the assassin is a dead man. Secondly, it shows that the assassin's martial arts is not superb and he cannot freely enter and leave the palace. In other words, the assassin did not climb over the wall. He sneaked into the palace through formal channels."

"This requires investigating the four palace gates in the southeast, northwest and northwest. One month or more before the incident, who entered and exited the palace, when did they enter and exit, and whether there were any abnormalities while in the palace."

"Especially those who are purchasing the items. When entering the palace, they should check carefully to see if there is anyone hiding in the purchased materials and taking the opportunity to sneak into the palace."

"In addition to the palace residents, there are also princes and courtiers who can enter and leave the palace."

"When courtiers arrive at the palace gate, they must get off the carriage and enter the palace on foot. It is impossible to bring an assassin with them to eliminate suspicion."

"The courtiers are not suspected, but the prince is highly suspected."

"Princes can enter the palace by carriage. At the palace gate, which princes' carriages have been thoroughly inspected and which ones have not need to be carefully checked."

"And whether the Fourth Prince's carriage was routinely inspected on the day he entered the palace."

"Let's talk about the assassin. The assassin appeared at the banquet dressed as a dancer. Did he sneak in on that day or earlier? A series of related matters, etc., the prince has carefully investigated."

"My son, I still don't believe it. If every link is investigated carefully, there will be no doubts. It's impossible for the assassin to appear out of thin air."

The emperor expressed his approval, "I also feel that if we investigate carefully, we will be able to find out the doubts. The prince has disappointed me so much. It's rare that you are interested in this case, why don't you come to investigate?"

The corners of Ming Cangyu's lips curved into a cold arc, and he smiled coldly, "Father, are you sure you want your ministers to investigate? The Fourth Prince of the Western Yuan Dynasty alone is not capable of bringing assassins into the palace. If someone is found on someone important, , I will not tolerate it."

"If anyone is found to have colluded with Prince Xi Yuan to murder me, he will be punished according to law!" the emperor said solemnly.

"I won't shirk it! I've searched for more than ten days in Dali Temple but there are no clues. It's obvious that they are a bunch of trash. Why don't we just transfer this case to the Criminal Department, and I will investigate together with the Criminal Department!"

"allow!"

"Shen Huaizhi is already in good health. I heard that he was a prostitute before his accident. His father happened to appoint him to the Ministry of Punishment. It would be better to let him participate in the case."

The emperor frowned slightly, "It's reasonable to let him join the job, but..." His expression was a bit complicated, "Our court has regulations for selecting officials, and those with physical and appearance disabilities are not allowed to serve."

Ming Cangyu suddenly remembered that Shen Huaizhi not only injured his chest and abdomen, but also injured the lower three inches of his abdomen. According to Dean Xu, even if he survived, he would be a useless person.

"What a pity." The emperor sighed, his tone full of regret.

Shen Yu'an had examined Shen Huaizhi's body and naturally knew the seriousness of the problem. She naively wanted to replace her brother in the court as an official, but it was impossible now.

After hesitating again and again, he spoke, "Your Majesty!"
