The Imperial Concubine Just Wants To Be a Salted Fish Every Day

Mei Guangtao came to see the prince with a confession.

"Your Highness, this is Zhu Quankun's confession. He has confessed to his crimes."

Luo Qinghan picked up the confession and read it again, and asked, "Didn't Zhu Quankun say why he hired to kill?"

Mei Guangtao answered truthfully: "Zhu Quankun said that he never hired anyone to kill anyone. All he did was to seek money. He never killed anyone."

As for the hostages who had been kidnapped by Zhu Quankun in the past, they were all sold into the mountains by him. All these still need to be verified one by one.

Luo Qinghan put down his confession and asked lightly, "Do you think Zhu Quankun's words are credible?"

Mei Guangtao: "Wei Chen thinks that he really doesn't need to kill people. It doesn't do him any good, and it may even lead to murder. This is not in line with his mercenary nature."

Luo Qinghan: "If the assassination really has nothing to do with him, then someone is using a knife to kill someone. Who wants to kill Dong Mingchun?"

Mei Guangtao: "Wei Chen thinks that we should ask Dong Shangshu about this matter. It was him who started the matter, and the clues must be hidden in him."

Luo Qinghan nodded slightly: "It makes sense."

Now that Zhu Quankun has confessed, he will be sentenced as long as he follows the procedure and goes through the procedure.

The Dushengjiao case has come to an end for the time being.

Luo Qinghan asked Dong Mingchun to come over.

Dong Mingchun saluted respectfully.

"I don't know what your Highness ordered?"

Luo Qinghan motioned him to sit down and chat slowly.

Dong Mingchun knelt down and sat down cautiously, his right arm was still wrapped in gauze, his face was pale, but fortunately his complexion was not bad, he looked more energetic than yesterday.

Luo Qinghan: "How is your wife now?"

Dong Mingchun: "Zhuojing is very good, and His Royal Highness is concerned about it."

"Zhu Quankun has already confessed, but he said that he did not hire a murderer to kill. That is to say, we have not been able to find out who the murderer who assassinated you is. Do you have any clues here?"

In fact, Dong Mingchun has been thinking about this for the past two days.

The result really reminded him of one thing.

Dong Mingchun hesitated, but still told the matter.

"Two days ago, Wei Chen received a letter from his distant cousin. My cousin is a magistrate in Qiluo County. His surname is Niu, and his single name is Hong."

"Niu Hong said in the letter that he encountered a very strange case not long ago, and the person who reported the case was a crazy old woman. She said that someone had killed her whole family. Niu Hong immediately sent someone to investigate, but found that no one was arrested at all. Kill, this old woman's children are all well, everyone said that the old woman is old and confused, and she can't believe what she said."

"Niu Hong thought it was over, but it didn't take long for the old woman to hang herself. Zuo said she committed suicide, but Niu Hong thought it was not easy. He wanted to continue investigating, but the old woman People's family suddenly moved out in a hurry."

"Niu Hong said that he was very uneasy, and had a hunch that something bad might happen. He deliberately wrote this in a letter. If he unfortunately encounters an accident in the future, Wei Chen may still be able to avenge him."

"Wei Chen has been worrying about Zhuojing's affairs for the past few days, and he didn't take this letter to heart. Now that I think about it, it's really strange."

Dong Mingchun was assassinated on the way to pay the ransom, and he instinctively thought that this was what the kidnappers did.

But now that I think about it, the kidnappers are all looking for money, and there is really no need to kill.

It just so happened that he was unfortunately assassinated on the second night after receiving the letter from his cousin.

Very coincidental timing.

This had to make Dong Mingchun suspicious.

Luo Qinghan: "Where is that letter?"

Dong Mingchun: "The letter is in Weichen's study, and Weichen will let someone fetch it."

He originally wanted the servants to go, but after thinking about it, he was afraid of what would happen, so he asked his eldest son to run this trip in person.

It took a long time for his eldest son to return, but he was empty-handed.

Dong Mingchun asked, "Where's the letter?"

"I didn't find it. My son rummaged through the entire study, and didn't find any letters at all."

Dong Mingchun frowned: "How is this possible? I clearly put the letter on the desk with two books on it. I can't remember it wrong!"

Luo Qinghan asked, "Will someone take your letter?"

"Probably not. Wei Chen told the servants in the family that no one in the family is allowed to enter the study without Wei Chen's permission."

The more Dong Mingchun thought about it, the more uneasy he felt, so he decided to go back in person.

Luo Qinghan said: "Gu go back with you."

Since the prince is leaving, Xiao Xixi's leg pendant will naturally be taken away.

A group of people took a carriage to Dong's house.

As soon as Dong Mingchun entered the house, he went straight to the study.

He first flipped through the bookcase, and then searched several bookshelves carefully, but found nothing.

Luo Qinghan and Xiao Xixi sat next to him and watched him busy.

Dong Mingchun said sweating profusely, "Reporting to Your Highness, everything in the study is there, but the letter is missing."

Luo Qinghan: "It seems that your study has been burglarized, and the thief only stole the letter."

Dong Mingchun's face became paler.

There are a lot of precious calligraphy, paintings and antiques in his study. If it is an ordinary thief, he will definitely steal those valuable and valuable things. How can he only steal a letter?

Unless the thief came specifically for that letter.

Dong Mingchun said uneasily: "Your Highness, that person can enter this study at will, does that mean that he may be hiding by Wei Chen's side? As long as Wei Chen is not careful, he will kill him?"

Luo Qinghan said, "I'm not afraid that they will do it, but I'm afraid that they won't do it. Guhui will arrange for Yulinwei to follow you secretly. As long as the other party makes a move, Yulinwei will take them down."

Dong Mingchun understood.

He smiled bitterly and said, "Your Highness is going to use Wei Chen as bait?"

Luo Qinghan: "There are only those who are thieves for a thousand days, and there is no one who can prevent thieves for a thousand days. I do this for once and for all, lest you live in fear for the rest of your life."

Dong Mingchun wanted to cry.

He obviously didn't do anything, how did he get into such a big trouble? !

Cousin killed him!

At this time, a steward walked to the door of the study and asked respectfully, "Master, do you have lunch now?"

Dong Mingchun left the prince and Concubine Xiao to eat at home.

The prince did not refuse this time.

In order to entertain the prince, today's lunch is extraordinarily rich.

Xiao Xixi sat on her knees beside the prince. She was eating the fragrant roast lamb chops. She wanted to raise a few sheep in the backyard of Qingge Palace. sheep.

The more I think about it, the more I think it was such a beautiful day!

Dong Mingchun also specially let his musicians and dancers come out to perform for the prince.

Luo Qinghan was too noisy, so he winked at Xiao Xixi.

Xiao Xixi buried her head in eating meat and did not receive the signal from the prince.

Luo Qinghan squeezed Xiao Xixi's thigh under the table.

Xiao Xixi immediately raised her head, looking at the prince with confusion in her eyes.

Luo Qinghan touched the obsidian beads on his wrist twice in front of her.
