The cute little wife of the king of peerless elegance

Chapter 244
As soon as he arrived at the Metropolitan Procuratorate, Fenghua's brain hurt even more.

In the main hall, not only the minister of the Ministry of punishment was walking back and forth eagerly, but the minister of Dali Temple was also looking out the door with almost the same expression as the minister of the Ministry of punishment.

As soon as they saw her figure, the two immediately rushed forward like hungry dogs seeing a bone.

With his scalp numb, Fenghua greeted him with a dry smile on his face, "Hold Qian, hold Qian, something has delayed me on the way."

Welcoming the two into the main hall, Fenghua immediately changed his expression as soon as he sat down, resting his head on the table with his hands, looking like he was dying of distress.

The appearance of her body, the two adults immediately suppressed the words that came out of their mouths, you look at me, I look at you, I don't know how to speak.

"Cough!~~~" With a long sigh, Feng Hua lay down on the table weakly.

The Minister of the Ministry of Justice sat with his mouth closed.

Dali Siqing still didn't know Fenghua well enough, when he saw her like this, he immediately asked, "Did your lord encounter any troubles?"

When he asked, Shangshu of the Ministry of Justice immediately gave him a foolish look, but the other party paid attention to Fenghua, and did not receive his signal.

"I encountered some unpleasant things on the road just now." Fenghua's voice was weak.

Now there is no need for the Minister of the Ministry of Justice to signal, Dali Siqing also knows that he should not ask any more questions, or the two of them will not get anything today.

But as soon as Fenghua started talking, she continued without anyone asking:

"Just now a group of princesses and princesses on the road blocked my way, saying that I have become a second-rank official like Zuodu Yushi with the identity of the protector prince's daughter, and also occupied the empress dowager and the regent. The king's misbehavior, I feel wronged!"

Lie down on the table, and even tremble a few shoulders, it looks like that really happened.

The Shangshu of the Ministry of Justice and the Minister of Dali Temple looked at each other, and then picked up the teacup at the same time. Everyone knew what the meaning behind the words was, and the interface was a fool.

Fenghua slapped the table and stood up, with a serious face, "His sister has a leg, I just occupy my father, the empress dowager and the regent, so what? I am so mad at them. "

Pointing to the Shangshu of the Ministry of Criminal Justice, "Li Shangshu, what did you say last time that the case was difficult? I was afraid of other people talking nonsense, so I didn't dare to help you. Now I will let them take care of it."

Both of them were stunned, this is completely different from what they thought?

They originally thought that Lord Nangong came here specially for them to find a reason to drive them away today, but with the twists and turns, their brains could hardly keep up with the rhythm.

Li Shangshu immediately reacted and stood up, took out two files from his sleeve and handed them over.

"Lord Nangong, these two cases have been accumulated in the criminal department for more than a month. Although the criminals have pleaded guilty, I still feel that something is wrong, and the case has not been finalized. Please take a look at it."

Dali Siqing called his subordinates to come in politely, he was even more ruthless, the subordinates were holding at least seven or eight dossiers by visual inspection.

elegance. . .

Can she take back what she just said?
First look at the file of the Minister of Criminal Justice, the two cases are very similar.

First case:
Six members of a family of seven died overnight on South First Street in Beijing (a poor area in the outer city), except for the new daughter-in-law.

The criminal was the new daughter-in-law, and the bride kept saying that she killed the whole family.

Li Shangshu's suspicion was not unreasonable. There was no witness or material evidence, and the reason for the murder was unclear. The only thing there was the bride's confession, and the confession was inconsistent.

Second case:
This is the massacre of a cloth shop on North [-]th Street (a wealthy district in the inner city) in the inner city of the capital. The same is true for the bride who just started living alone, and she keeps saying that she did it by herself.

There is no physical evidence, no reason for killing, and the same confession is inconsistent.

Fenghua threw the dossier on the table with a cold face, "Investigate the case together, this is a serial murder case."

Li Shangshu looked at Fenghua in embarrassment, "Master Nangong, I have thought about these two cases as serial murders, but the two families have different backgrounds, one is rich and the other is poor, and the murder weapons are also different. The whole family was killed by a sword. However, the family has more weapons, including knives, sticks, and axes. Although the plots are somewhat similar, it doesn’t look like the same person did it.”

"Who told you that you were alone?" Fenghua looked at him puzzled.

"This is obviously what a group of people did. You can't see it. Even though the case on Nanyi Street was all about swords, have you read the report of the author? Not in the same place."

"Then that is to say, the technique and strength of the person using the sword are different. May I ask if this is the same person?"

"But..." Li Shangshu felt that one of his brains was getting bigger than two.

"Why do the brides of these two families admit that they did it themselves?" Isn't this a dead end?

Even the Minister of Dali Temple aroused his curiosity. After looking through the file on the table, he had a different opinion, "Master Nangong, I have something to say, do you know if I should say it or not?"

"Say."

"Li Shangshu is from the Northwest, so he may not know much about an earlier practice in the capital."

Seeing Fenghua and Li Shangshu looking at him in puzzlement, Dali Siqing continued to explain:
"That was before Emperor Qiming. If the people in the capital are a new bride, if there is a bloody disaster in the family within three months, even if it is just someone in the family who is bleeding from a finger, they will blame the bride."

"Generally, the bride will either be punished by the host's family, or enter the temple to bless the host's family, and then return home until the host's family thinks that the disaster has passed, but the status of the bride in the host's family has plummeted."

"After Emperor Qiming came to the throne, he went out of the palace in a low-clothes to beg for water in a small courtyard of a farm. Coincidentally, this family had just married a bride, who was the youngest daughter-in-law of that family. The son's child suddenly fell down and his hands were bleeding, and the family sent the bride to the family temple to bless the whole family."

"What's more coincidental is that the day when Emperor Qiming came to this small farmyard was the day when the family went to pick up the bride. Emperor Qiming saw the family beating and scolding the bride with his own eyes, and everyone around watching with cold eyes."

"This time, Emperor Qiming, the old ancestor, was so angry that he not only dealt with the beating family on the spot, but also issued an imperial decree after returning to the palace: if you find such bad habits again after following the order, once When the government finds out, not only will the offender’s family members be punished, but even the person in charge there will be punished together.”

"With the decree of the ancestors, such bad habits among the people will gradually disappear. I have never known the existence of this matter. I heard it from my father when I was a child. I just remembered it when I read the file."
