Chapter 31 The Young Lady in the Brothel 12
"Mother, my son also asks for orders to investigate this matter thoroughly, and we must find the culprit, so as to put Mother's heart at ease." Murong Jingfeng also stood up.

Emperor Wu Ning was silent. She has been emperor for many years, and she was able to sit firmly on the throne from the initial acting government affairs to the current position. Naturally, Emperor Wu Ning relied not only on her ambition and overall control, but also on her suspicion. Maintain a suspicion in everything, so that you can never stand under the dangerous wall.

Now that this kind of thing happened in the hunting ground, although the identity of the other party was not clear, Emperor Wu Ning clearly realized that someone wanted to drag her down.

The existence of a female emperor was enough to make those men feel uneasy, and if something scandalous happened to her, it would be enough to make those people use this to turn her down.

Emperor Wu Ning sneered, his eyes gloomy.

She looked at Prime Minister Tang Jian standing aside and said, "What do you think, Tang Aiqing?"

Tang Jian's face was calm, and he could not tell what he was thinking. He only said: "I just feel that someone actually wants to attack the Holy One. It is an unforgivable crime. Why not let the Crown Prince investigate clearly and find the mastermind behind the scenes."

"Really?" Emperor Wu Ning didn't say he agreed, but he didn't object, but he looked at Lin Jiajia again: "Chen Aiqing, you are the one who suffers from this matter. Tell me what you should do."

"I think it's inappropriate to leave this matter to the Crown Prince or the King of Yan. The medicine is put in the mandarin duck cake. The food for the Holy Majesty is in charge of the special person. You can find out who you have contacted. Why don't you ask the Holy Majesty to interrogate himself?" , under the majesty of the Holy Majesty, presumably those people will definitely tell the truth."

Emperor Wu Ning nodded and pondered, and after a while, he spoke again: "Chen Aiqing's words are reasonable. Bring me everyone who has come into contact with this plate of mandarin duck cake today."

The guard came down in response and returned after a while.

"Report to Your Majesty," the guard who reported back had an uneasy expression, "The little eunuch who cooks has committed suicide."

Emperor Wu Ning's face darkened in an instant. She had only just started to investigate, and the other party had already taken action, obviously they had been prepared for a long time.

The guard added: "I checked his background again, and found that he is not the imperial cook in the palace, but the back cook who was suddenly sent in during the autumn hunt."

As soon as these words were said, everyone present showed astonishment.

Emperor Wuning's diet was all controlled by a special person, and would never be handed over to other people, let alone a little eunuch of unknown origin.

The personnel of this autumn hunting trip have also been strictly screened. How can such a person sneak in without being noticed by others?
"My lord, there is something strange about this matter." Tang Jian said in a deep voice: "The candidates for the autumn hunt are all carefully selected. How did such a person get mixed up? I suggest that the relevant personnel responsible for the preparations for the autumn hunt start to investigate .”

The autumn hunt was planned by King Yan Murong Jingfeng from the very beginning, and Tang Jian's words did not intend to draw all the suspicions on him.

Lin Jiajia looked sideways slightly, she didn't expect it.I originally thought that Tang Jian, an old fox, would not easily take sides until the overall situation was uncertain, but he didn't expect that he would now choose his own side and side with Murong Min.

Probably because she felt ashamed to reveal her biological daughter's status as a prostitute, that's why she chose Murong Min who was tied to Tang Chuyue.It's just that Murong Min didn't target Murong Jingfeng so early in the original plot. It seems that the previous disaster relief still aroused their vigilance.

Murong Jingfeng didn't even think about it, and knelt down in front of Emperor Wu Ning: "It's because I'm not good at handling things, that's why I let such people in. I plead guilty. But if someone wants to blame this incident on my son, The son-in-law absolutely does not recognize it. The son-in-law is loyal to the mother emperor, and the mother emperor can learn from it."

"My Majesty, I found something in the little eunuch's residence, and he hid it in a corner." Another guard broke in, and he opened a veil, revealing the items inside. A black token with the word "Swallow" clearly engraved on it.

Murong Min snorted: "Jing Feng, what else do you want to say?" Although he still didn't understand until now, it was obvious that he just asked his subordinates to drug Lin Jiajia, how did things turn out like this.But even if the unsightly Lin Jiajia was not removed, it would be fine to keep her for the time being. Now that King Yan can be removed smoothly, it will be easier to get rid of Lin Jiajia in the future.

Murong Jingfeng's expression changed drastically: "Emperor Mother, my son really didn't do anything! Emperor Mother clearly checked! Someone must have framed this!"

"Who can frame you? The autumn hunt is all done by your confidantes, how can outsiders get in." Murong Min said: "Killing the king and mother, you should die!"

He frowns coldly, speaks plausibly, and with just a few words, Murong Jingfeng is sentenced to death.

"Jing Feng." Emperor Wu Ning said indifferently: "Tell me, is it you?"

Murong Jingfeng looked directly at her, and said calmly: "I have never done this before, and I dare not think of it. Please return my innocence to the emperor."

Emperor Wu Ning remained silent, unable to see what it meant.The incident happened suddenly, and the ending was too simple, which made her a little hesitant.No matter what the purpose was, Emperor Wu Ning couldn't find a reason why Jing Feng would do it, even if he coveted the throne, if he was gone, it would only fall on Min'er, not him.

Murong Jingfeng just knelt there quietly, motionless, as if waiting for her to leave.

Lin Jiajia coughed a few more times, reached for the token in the guard's hand, and looked it over carefully.

After a while, she suddenly said: "My lord, this token seems to be fake."

Murong Min sneered: "Master Chen, although the King of Yan is on good terms with you, you can't talk nonsense if you want to argue for him. The tokens of King Yan's Mansion are made by the Ministry of Internal Affairs, and the materials are exactly the same as those of the Prince's Mansion. You can overthrow it with a false statement."

Lin Jiajia put the token back and said affirmatively: "The token of King Yan's Mansion is indeed made by the Ministry of Internal Affairs, with a unique material. I was lucky enough to see it, and I also heard that the token is made of black wood. Wood has a special fragrance, and this token happens to have it too."

"Then what are you talking about?" Murong Min snorted coldly, "Hei Chenmu is a tribute, only available in the palace, do you want to say that the Ministry of Internal Affairs helped to make this fake token to frame him?"

Lin Jiajia shook his head: "What the prince said is very true. The black wood is only available in the palace, but the fragrance of the black wood is not only available in the wood of the black wood. According to my knowledge, there is a kind of wood called Huning wood, which has the same fragrance and material. The black driftwood is exactly the same, but unlike the black driftwood, the fragrance of this kind of wood may cause some people to feel unwell, which is probably why the Ministry of Internal Affairs chose the black driftwood as the token material. But the minister happens to be that kind People who are not comfortable with the scent of Junin wood.”

She stretched out her wrists and pulled up her sleeves, revealing her white skin.

And on the fine white skin, small red bumps grew out, densely packed, which looked quite scary.

"When I touch this kind of wood, I will get these red bumps, but when I encounter black wood, I will not. So I judged that this token is a fake token made of Hu Ning wood." Lin Jiajia said unequivocally.

The imperial doctor also came out to testify: "Wei Chen has also seen such a case, and indeed some people will have an uncomfortable reaction to Hu Ningmu."

"So, Weichen thinks that this matter should be framed by someone who framed King Yan. Huning wood is also a relatively expensive wood, and it is not an item that ordinary people can afford. Weichen suggests sending someone to the relevant store in the capital to inquire about it and have a look. Has anyone bought this kind of wood recently?"

Emperor Wu Ning nodded and agreed with her words.Soon, the guards followed Lin Jiajia's instructions and went to investigate various shops in the capital.

And everyone gathered in the big tent, waiting anxiously for the result, occasionally heard Lin Jiajia's coughing, which caused Murong Min to stare at her several times irritably.

The sky was slightly brighter, and the guard finally came back.

At the same time, another person was brought back.

The guard tied the man and pushed him in front of Emperor Wu Ning, made him kneel down, and said: "I inquired about all the shops in the capital, and found that only people from the Prince's mansion have bought this kind of wood recently, but those who bought Hu Ning wood It has disappeared without a trace. So Weichen went to check again and found that this person had also bought Yulouchun."

And the person he mentioned was known to everyone present, and it was Du Yao, one of Prince Murong Min's confidantes.
