The best ring
Chapter 1997 Another Seven Days
Guanzhuo did not go to see Hou Zhong off. He sat back down in his seat again, frowning in thought.
It can be said that the two pieces of news brought to him by Hou Zhong are very important, and these two clues are likely to be the key to his detection of the case.
However, neither Dr. Liu nor Xiao Shunzi is easy to investigate. Dr. Liu was originally the chief of the Taiyuan Hospital, and now he may be involved with Zhao Lun again, and his status is unusual.
Although Xiao Shunzi is just a eunuch, behind him is the eldest prince Zhao Xuan, who is also difficult to attack.
Fortunately, when he took over this case, Guanzhuo knew that this case would be very difficult, and he had no intention of backing down at this time.
After thinking about it, Guanzhuo planned to start with Dr. Liu first.
Doctor Liu should be in the palace now. All he needs to do is capture him first and let him speak before Zhao Lun comes forward. However, Guanzhuo is not planning to torture him. After all, now Hou Zhong just said that Doctor Liu went to San It's hard to say whether the other party in the palace of the prince Zhao Lun was related to the late emperor's poisoning. In normal times, he would have tortured the suspect in order to investigate the case, but this time it was different. This time the matter was too big. Many people wished that he could not continue the investigation and were staring at him. If he used torture indiscriminately, he would probably be criticized.
Guanzhuo is not afraid of losing his official position. In fact, when he told the matter in public yesterday, he was mentally prepared for it. However, he was not willing to let the matter be buried. He wanted to find out the truth.
Just when Guanzhuo stood up and prepared to go to the palace, the official from the Ministry of Justice who had led Hou Zhong here came again. However, this time he did not lead Hou Zhong back, but someone else.
The eldest prince Zhao Xuan!
Zhao Xuan wanted to see Guanzhuo, so he naturally didn't need to notify him. Under the guidance of the officials from the Ministry of Justice, he barged in directly.
Seeing Zhao Xuan, Guanzhuo frowned subconsciously, but he quickly returned to normal.
"Meet His Highness the eldest prince." Guanzhuo saluted respectfully.
"No need." Zhao Xuan said calmly: "I came here today to ask Lord Shangshu how your investigation went on regarding my father's poisoning?"
After hearing Zhao Xuan's question, Guan Zhuo secretly thought in his heart, and sure enough, there was no look of surprise on his face.
Guanzhuo had known for a long time that many people in the court were watching this matter, including several princes. The other princes might still be a little patient and just wait and see, but the eldest prince and the third prince obviously couldn't bear it anymore.
Guanzhuo also knew that after this case emerged, his Criminal Department Yamen would be like a vegetable market, with people constantly visiting and inquiring. However, many people had already come today, and Zhao Xuan in front of him was just one of them.
"Back to the eldest prince, the ministers are working hard to investigate the late emperor's case." Guanzhuo said without changing his expression: "It's just that the case is quite complicated, and not much has been discovered for a while."
Guanzhuo did not tell Zhao Xuan the news brought by Hou Zhong. He was obviously not prepared to tell anyone else about such a thing. What's more, the eldest prince was one of the suspects in this matter, so he couldn't tell him. .
"It hasn't been discovered yet?" Zhao Xuan frowned and said displeasedly: "Then how long do you plan to delay the case? It's already obvious that this matter was done by the second emperor's younger brother. Why are you still delaying closing the case? Could it be that you Is there any hidden secret between you and him?”
Zhao Xuan and Zhao Lun were indeed brothers. Even when they scolded and questioned Guanzhuo, they were so similar.
After Zhao Xuan left Qi Kai's yamen of the Ministry of Rites, he went straight to the Ministry of Punishments.
As for Qi Kai, he had settled the matter. With Qi Kai's promise, he had more time to investigate, but the fact that the late emperor was poisoned still made Zhao Xuan uneasy. He didn't want to solve Zhao Lun by himself. , he was also caught, and finally took advantage of the second prince Zhao Ke.
Therefore, he rushed to the Ministry of Justice and wanted Guan Zhuo to close the case as soon as possible. It was best to pin the crime on the second prince Zhao Ke. Even if he couldn't do this, as long as Guan Zhuo was willing to close the case, Zhao Xuan could. Accepted, as long as this case is understood, he will have one less hidden danger and can let go of the fight for the throne.
"Your Highness, be careful!" Guanzhuo said with a straight face: "Weichen and His Highness the Second Prince have not had much contact, and there are no ulterior secrets. The reason why Weichen did not close the case is because there is insufficient evidence in this matter. , the case cannot be closed easily.”
"Then how long are you going to delay it?" Zhao Xuan asked: "This matter has become a big deal now. Not only the common people are talking about it, but people from other countries are also talking about it. This matter has become a You have become the laughing stock of our Yanfeng Kingdom! Lord Shangshu, how long do you want those people to laugh at you? If you close the case as soon as possible, this matter can be settled as soon as possible. Does it mean that Lord Shangshu wants everyone in the world to laugh at you? Staring at this matter and talking about it? "
"We naturally want to close the case as soon as possible to comfort the late emperor's spirit in heaven." Guanzhuo said, "But now that the real murderer has not been found, how should we close the case?"
After hearing Guan Zhuo's words, Zhao Xuan's expression changed and he said, "If Master Shangshu really wants to close the case as soon as possible, then just find someone to take the blame! The emperor's brother has a noble status and is not suitable to take the blame, so just find someone else!" "
Zhao Xuan's idea is very simple, that is, to close the case as soon as possible, even if the real culprit cannot be found, he can just find an unrelated person to take the blame.
Of course, Zhao Xuan cannot hope that Guan Zhuo will find the real culprit, because the real culprit is himself!
Zhao Xuan's words also made Guan Zhuo's face change. He said unhappily: "How can your highness say such a thing? The late emperor was poisoned, this is a big deal! How can you just find someone to take the blame? If so, the spirit of the late emperor in heaven will not rest in peace. If this matter spreads, our Yanfeng country will become a real joke."
Guan Zhuo obviously did not agree to find someone to take the blame casually. Not to mention that he has already figured it out, even if there is really no clue, he will not agree to let this matter go. With his personality, he can't do this and it's impossible to do so.
Zhao Xuan was still very dissatisfied with Guan Zhuo's reaction even though he was prepared. This was not the answer he wanted. He knew Guan Zhuo was stubborn, but he didn't expect him to be so stubborn.
Zhao Xuan said with a displeased face: "This matter must have a result as soon as possible. As the prince of Yanfeng country, I don't want our Yanfeng country to become a laughing stock of the world. This matter must not be delayed for too long. I will give you another seven days. If you still can't figure this out after seven days, you can do it yourself!"
After that, Zhao Xuan left angrily.
When Guan Zhuo heard what Zhao Xuan said, he was slightly stunned:
Seven days?
Seven days again!
