From Chapter 35 Part 31
In that room, the twilight had not yet dissipated, and there was only a little white light in the east, but there was a knock on the door of Zhou Xin's bedroom.
Zhou Cozy woke up from sleep, looked sideways at his wife Tang, who was sleeping soundly, got up carefully, put on a coat, tucked up the quilt for his wife, and then tiptoed out the door.
Standing outside the door was his confidant. This confidant was 25 or [-] years old, unremarkable in appearance, and called Wei Song. Wei Song came from a scholarly family, but he didn't like studying. Instead, he came to work as a yamen servant in Dali Temple.
Seeing that it was Wei Song, Zhou Yan lowered his voice and asked, "Is there anything unusual about it?"
Yesterday, when Zhou Cozy brought the Lius, the pharmacy store manager and the pharmacy assistant into the palace, he also brought Wei Song into the palace. As soon as Wei Song entered the palace, he changed into the clothes of his servants and went to check in the palace. When sending those four people out of the palace, Wei Song also left the palace with him, and followed the Liu couple back home.
Zhou Cozy has been secretly observing the Liu family and the two people in the pharmacy. Although Liu Yuan's mother has experienced the pain of bereavement, her performance has gone too far.
Wei Songgong reported: "It is said that Liu Yuan is a gambler, obsessed with women, and has a bad relationship with his parents. He even beat up the Lius because of his bank account. Then the Lius died as soon as they got home yesterday. Washed up and went to sleep, just this morning, just now, the two of them actually opened the box of Wenyin, hid in the room and counted it carefully."
The Lius and his wife were really weird, the box of silver was not Liu Yuan's money for his life, but it was used to bribe the Lius and his wife to give false testimony against Yan Xun?For the Lius and his wife, Liu Yuan's death is already worth celebrating, and having 1 taels of such a good deed is tantamount to joy from heaven. As for the cause of Liu Yuan's death, I am afraid it is worthless.
Liu and his wife have sons like this, and Liu Yuan has parents like this, both are wronged.
Zhou Co asked again: "Is Second Highness Yan Xun weird?"
Wei Song replied: "When I left the palace, it was almost dusk, and the Second Highness was having dinner with Mr. Xiao, there is nothing strange about it."
Although Yan Xun has always been difficult to distinguish between emotions and anger, but after all, he is still young, and now that he is under such a serious suspicion, he is still calm and composed. Could it be that he was really framed?
If Yan Xun is not the real culprit, then the real culprit intends to poison the crown prince Yan Yu, ordered Wang Shu to go to Yan Juan to report Yan Xun and Liu Yuan, and accused Yan Xun of having a secret meeting with Liu Yuan in front of himself, and sent someone to pretend to be an attendant in the Fuyu Palace. Buying the "Nine Kills", bribing the Lius and his wife, forcing Liu Yuan to commit suicide after writing a suicide note, they really pressed on every step of the way, wanting to put Yan Xun to death.
What is the identity of the body in the palace that was castrated after death?
Zhou Yi intuitively felt that there was a lot of fog in front of him. The crime of murdering the crown prince is a heinous crime, which can be punished by the nine clans. If Yan Xun is convicted, even if he is a prince, he can save his life. There is no longer a fight for the throne.
Since the real murderer wants to frame Yan Xun, he must be someone who can benefit from it, and the people who can benefit from it are nothing more than the third prince Yan Qi and the fourth prince Yan Huan.
The fourth prince Yan Huan had visited Yan Xun in the cell of Dali Temple before, could it be a play?Was it intentional to be caught by his men?
Suddenly, a thought flashed through Zhou Xin's mind, he pondered for a while, and asked Wei Song, "Is the prince weird?"
Wei Song was startled and said, "My lord, you doubt..."
Seeing Zhou Cozy nod his head, Wei Chan said: "The prince has been ill in bed since he was poisoned, and he has not seen outsiders. Only Emperor Wen, Empress Zhao and his servants have entered the prince's bedroom."
Zhou Co frowned slightly, and ordered: "You keep a close eye on the Liu couple, and don't disturb them for the time being."
Wei Song promised, and disappeared without a trace in the blink of an eye.
Zhou Cozy went back to the room and walked lightly to the bed. His wife, Tang, was not sleeping well. While he was talking with Wei Song, she kicked over the thin quilt. He carefully helped his wife After covering her with the quilt, she secretly pushed the door out with the official uniform she was going to wear in the court.
He went to the next room, was served by a maid, put on the official uniform, washed, had breakfast, and then went to court.
Recently, apart from the case of the prince being poisoned, there is nothing important about peace in the country.
Therefore, after a short time, the court dispersed.
As soon as the court was over, Zhou Yan hurried back to Dali Temple without delay, intending to interrogate Wang Shu.
Before Wang Shu mentioned it, a servant of the yamen reported: "There is a woman outside who wants to appeal for a grievance, and insists on seeing the Lord immediately."
Zhou Cozy sat on the high hall, stroked the gavel: "Let her in."
After a while, a woman came to the hall. Zhou Yi raised her head and looked up. The woman who came in had no makeup or accessories on her face. Her face was bleak, but her eyes were red and swollen. With bloodshot eyes, she was wearing a mourning dress, bowed profusely in front of Zhou Cozy, and cried, "I hope my lord will find out who killed my husband!"
Zhou Yan asked solemnly: "What is your husband's name?"
"The husband of the slave family is named Liu Yuan."
