"It's definitely possible. I know what you want to ask the most. You want the emperor to re-investigate the case for the sake of your merits, right?"

Murong nodded: "Well, what I have done so far, can the emperor order it? As long as he can help my family to overturn the case, I promise that I will repay him by planting more productive grains in the future, benefiting Xuanqing Kingdom and making it strong. Xuanqing Kingdom, let the people of the entire Xuanqing Kingdom no longer go hungry."

Higher-yielding grains?

It seems that this girl's ability is not only what she shows.

Helian Rongjiu smiled and said, "Of course it is possible, but..."

"But what?"

"Actually, last year, I asked someone to investigate my uncle's affairs."

When he only started contacting them last year, he didn't let Jing Xuan investigate, thinking that they were just ordinary passers-by in his life, and he probably wouldn't meet in the future, so there was no need to care about those things.

But he met them again later, and as he got to know them, he was also a little curious about what happened back then, so he asked Jing Xuan to investigate.

Murong Zhe was startled, he couldn't help but took a step forward and said excitedly, "Young Master Jiu, you had someone investigate last year? How's the investigation going?"

Helian Rongjiu shook his head regretfully: "It has been many years, and there is no useful news for now."

Murong Zhe suddenly showed a look of disappointment. He was silent for a while, and then said, "Can you tell me who secretly went to the punishment department to join me back then?"

"I found this out."

"who is it?"

"It's Imperial Doctor Mei who worked with you in the Imperial Hospital."

"Doctor Mei?" Murong Zhe frowned and said, "He is ten years older than me, and I have no grievances with him. I have never had a conflict with him in the more than ten years in the Imperial Hospital. He is kind to me, why did he want to harm me?"

Helian Rongjiu said: "The files of the Ministry of Punishment recorded what he said at the time, saying that he personally saw you do it, because he had a bad conscience and didn't want to cover you up, and after struggling for a few days, he wrote down a note to join you. Sent to the Ministry of Punishment, and the Ministry of Punishment found evidence based on his account."

Murong Zhe said excitedly: "He wronged me, I have never done that kind of thing, I am really wronged, I want to ask him personally, I have no injustice or hatred with him, why did he frame me!"

Wei Jingxuan said: "Uncle, don't get excited, you will never be able to testify with him face to face."

Murong Zhe said anxiously, "Why?"

Wei Jingxuan said: "I personally investigated Imperial Doctor Mei. In April last year, he and his family fell off the cliff on their way back to their hometown to worship their ancestors. The bottom of the cliff is the lake, and when the people were brought up, they were all drowning. dead."

Murong Zong asked in surprise, "Is the whole family dead?"

Helian Rongjiu said: "Yes, an imperial doctor died, and the people from the Ministry of Punishment also went to investigate and found that the carriage they were riding in had been manipulated."

"It's too coincidental, our family came back to the capital, and Taiyi Mei's whole family died? So, Taiyi Mei was most likely ordered by someone else? It's just that the people behind him were killed to protect themselves. , afraid of being discovered?"

"Yes, I thought so too."

Murong said: "Isn't there still servants in his family? Have those servants been interrogated?"

Wei Jingxuan said: "I have also investigated this. Imperial Physician Mei has always been frugal, and the family has a small population, only five members and seven servants."
