Chapter 352 The Prince investigates the case

There were dozens of people in the group, including the secret guards of Dingbeihou Mansion and the masters of Wushang Camp.

There can't be too many people on this trip, otherwise it will attract a lot of people's attention, so the number of people is not too large.

As Lin Jinglan and his carriage left quickly, the prince in the East Palace also received the news.

"Lin Jinglan and Yaoguang both went to Yuecheng."

The prince's face was as dark as water. He left the capital so suddenly and had to go. He was always a little uneasy in his heart.

"Go to Dingbeihou Mansion."

According to Lin Jinglan's message, there must be something wrong with the Hou Mansion, otherwise how could he be poisoned so suddenly.

At this time, Lin Jinglan didn't have time to deal with these things, so he would help her find out what went wrong in the Hou Mansion.

Uncle Qi, who had been guarding the Hou Mansion, was also very surprised when he saw the sudden arrival of the prince.

"Your Highness, what are you doing?"

Lin Jinglan's order was not to let anyone in or out of the Hou Mansion, but according to the eldest lady's wishes, she really believed in His Highness the Crown Prince.

"Jinglan has gone to Yuecheng and has no time to take care of the affairs of the Hou Mansion. Then I will come and help her take a look. Uncle Qi, go and tell me all the suspects in the Hou Mansion. I will personally interrogate you later. .”

The prince didn't say anything nonsense and directly stated his purpose.

"Yes."

After thinking about it for a while, Uncle Qi agreed to the prince's wishes.

Lin Jinglan trusted the people he trusted, and since he was the prince, he couldn't stop him even if he wanted to.

"What did the old Marquis eat today, and who passed it."

The prince asked Uncle Qi as he walked away.

"After breakfast, I had a cup of tea and some snacks."

These things were left behind when Lin Jinglan gave the order.

"Bring them all to me, and bring everyone who handled them."

Sitting in the hall of the Hou Mansion, the prince gave deep instructions.

Lin Jinglan and others would definitely not have time to inspect and interrogate these things.

"Yes."

Uncle Qi waved his hand, and a guard went down and brought the things up.

The prince brought a doctor to observe the food.

"No problem."

After a while, the two doctors brought by the prince shook their heads at the prince, indicating that there was nothing wrong with these things.

"how come?"

Uncle Qi didn't believe it. If there was no problem with eating, why would the old Marquis be poisoned?

The lady said that Sanyin Black Sand can only be taken orally, so it must come from eating.

"Check again."

The prince said in a deep voice.

At the same time, he also looked at Uncle Qi.

"Are you sure these things haven't been exchanged? Or is something missing?"

As long as something is done, it is impossible to leave no trace at all.

If there really were no clues, even if Lin Jinglan came back, he would still be unable to find anything.

"By the way, by the way, there is a snack on the table for breakfast today. It smells good and looks good. The old Marquis doesn't usually eat it, but today he couldn't help but eat a piece, but the rest is gone."

When he thought of this, Uncle Qi couldn't help but wonder. Could it be that there was something wrong with this pastry?

"Look for clues about this pastry. It's best to find out whether the remaining pastries have been disposed of."

The prince also frowned and said in a deep voice.

"Yes."

As soon as he said this, not only the people in the Hou's mansion, but also the people brought by the prince also went to action. The prince's face has never been very good. He always has a feeling that this matter is not that simple.

"Send someone to Yuecheng to fully assist the Crown Princess and the others, and inform the magistrate of Yuecheng to provide convenience."

After thinking about it for a while, the prince made such a decision.

Now that Gu Junheng is not in the capital, if something happens to Lin Jinglan, he will not be able to eat her when he comes back.

As a brother, if he didn't protect his wife, he would feel sorry for Gu Junheng.

"Yes."

The subordinate agreed respectfully, then turned around and left to do his work.

But the prince's brows have never opened, and he is obviously thinking a lot in his heart.

"Your Highness, I've found it, I've found it. This man was sneaking around with a baggage and wanted to leave. Fortunately, we found him."

At this time, Uncle Qi also escorted a person in and told the prince what happened as he walked.

"Because the lady gave the order in time, everyone who came into contact with the old Marquis was controlled. This person probably did not have time to deliver the cakes."

The prince waved his hand, and the two doctors he brought directly took the bundle from Uncle Qi's hand and began to examine it.

"It is indeed a bit unusual, but what kind of poison it is, we are not good at studying and cannot see it."

The two doctors looked at each other carefully for a while, smiled bitterly at each other, and apologized to the prince.

"That's all, it's not your fault."

Just seeing something wrong is enough.

After all, the previous poison had to be fluorinated, and Lin Jinglan and Dr. Hua had to diagnose it together to get the result.

Sanyin black sand is not an ordinary poison, so it is normal to find no trace of it.

"Okay, the evidence has been found, let's talk about who ordered you."

The prince focused his attention on the servant who was being escorted, and said lightly.

Although his tone was very calm, everyone present could hear the prince's suppressed anger.

Too many things have happened in the seemingly peaceful capital recently. Gu Junheng left the capital, and Lin Jinglan and Yaoguang also left the capital.

He always felt that this was not a good thing.

"I don't know, I really don't know."

The servant was a woman in her thirties, who was usually responsible for the old Marquis's food. She was an old man in the Marquis's house.

But it happened to be such an old man that the old Marquis was now dying.

The woman's face was full of tears, her eyes were innocent and scared, and she really looked like she didn't know anything.

"If you don't know anything, why do you need to get rid of these pastries? You must know in your heart that there is something wrong with these pastries, so just say what you need to say."

If the following is still unwilling to say anything, then it will be the result of torture.

After three breaths, the woman still didn't say anything. The prince couldn't help it anymore. He nodded, and the guards around him quickly stepped forward, reaching out and preparing to take action against this person.

"puff."

But at this moment, the man suddenly spit out a mouthful of blood and fell to the ground.

"Your Highness, he is dead."

After checking the situation, the prince's guards reported to the prince.

"Search it."

He didn't expect to do it so brilliantly, but the prince couldn't believe that he couldn't find any clues. This man was an old man, so he naturally had his own home. He had to look for it bit by bit, and he would eventually find some clues.

"Your Highness, I found something."

An hour later, a guard placed a package in front of the prince. There were some belongings in the package, but what interested the prince was the cloth of the package, which seemed to have some totems on it.

"It seems to be Beiqiang?"
