Chapter 2126 Going to the Ministry of Justice

Gu Lin told a series of things that the eldest prince Zhao Xuan had done before, and he was naturally involved in them. However, he described himself as a victim and was coerced by Zhao Xuan.

After listening, Yuan Ji and Hou Yi also understood the ins and outs of this matter.

"The palace maid is dead, and now you are the only witness." Yuanji thought for a while and said, "Do you have any other evidence to prove that this matter was done by the eldest prince?"

With the lessons learned from Dr. Liu before, Yuanji now pays more attention to safety.

The palace maid Gu Lin mentioned is already dead, and there is no evidence to prove that the incident was caused by the eldest prince. Gu Lin's words alone may not be useful.

Gu Lin thought for a while and said, "Yes!"

"What?" Yuan Ji and Hou Yi became energetic and asked quickly.

"In order to poison the late emperor without being suspected, the eldest prince did not get the poison from the imperial physician in the palace, but bought it from the people." Gu Lin said: "Because this matter is very important, the eldest prince even secretly I’ve seen the doctor selling medicine.”

"Great!" Yuan Ji and Hou Yi were excited when they heard this: "Do you know the identity of that doctor?"

"I know." Gu Lin nodded: "When the eldest prince sneaked out of the palace, I accompanied him."

"Okay!" Yuanji said, "Take us to the doctor immediately!"

With the testimony of Gu Lin and the doctor, if the poison can be found again, the eldest prince Zhao Xuan will basically not be able to escape the charge of murdering the late emperor.

In order to avoid long nights and dreams, Yuan Ji and Hou Yi immediately took Gu Lin to find the doctor. After all, this matter was too important. In addition to bringing many guards, Yuan Ji and Hou Yi even They all went together in person.

As long as it can be proven that the first emperor was killed by someone sent by the eldest prince, then the second prince's charges can be cleared away, and their current predicament will be solved!

Gu Lin was also very excited. As long as he defeated the eldest prince, he would be safe and no longer have to live in fear.

However, Gu Lin didn't know that the last Dr. Liu, who was used by Yuanji and others, had been secretly killed by Yuanji after he lost his use value. Of course, Dr. Liu was killed not only because he had no use value, but also because he had lost his use value. More importantly, he seduced Yuan Ji's concubine. Before, Imperial Doctor Liu was still useful and Yuan Ji could tolerate it. Now that he saw that Imperial Doctor Liu had completely lost his use value, he was naturally not polite.

The group of people headed outside in a mighty manner. Under the guidance of Gu Lin, Yuan Ji, Hou Yi and others successfully caught the doctor.

When the doctor was arrested, he didn't understand what was going on. He didn't even know that he was the indirect murderer of the late emperor. The eldest prince was afraid that his identity would be exposed, so he hid his identity to buy the medicine. Therefore, the doctor He had no idea that his medicine was sold to the eldest prince, nor did he know that the eldest prince killed the late emperor with the medicine he bought from him.

After a brief interrogation, Yuan Ji and Hou Yi looked at each other and immediately made a decision:

Go to the Ministry of Justice!

After all, the Ministry of Punishment was in charge of the case of the late emperor's poisoning. This matter could only be handled by the Ministry of Punishment. Now that two key witnesses have been found and there is even evidence, it is natural that they have to be sent to the Ministry of Punishment.

At this time, in the Ministry of Justice, Guan Zhuo was sorting out the files with the help of his subordinates. While the outside world was taking sides and fighting for power, Guan Zhuo was still focused on trying the case and finding out the real culprit in the murder of the late emperor. That's what Guanzhuo cares about most.

However, this matter was obviously not easy. Although he also obtained some clues, these clues were not enough for him to solve the case.

"It's difficult." Guanzhuo leaned on the chair, rubbed his brows, and sighed deeply.

Because of this case, he had not eaten or rested for several days. He knew that in fact, many people in the court no longer cared much about the real culprit of the murder of the late emperor. They only cared about their own future and destiny, but Guanzhuo did not. You can't think like that, and you won't think like that.

"Sir, Yuan Shangshu and Hou Shangshu are here."

At this moment, a subordinate knocked on the door and walked in.

Hearing this, Guanzhuo frowned slightly and said, "Why are you here again? Are we two together this time?"

Ever since he captured the second prince Zhao Ke, Yuan Ji, Hou Yi and Hou Zhong have been coming to his Penal Department Yamen frequently, naturally because of the second prince's affairs. As we all know, Yuan Ji and the other three are the second prince's loyal supporters. Now that the second prince has been arrested, the three of them are naturally anxious.

However, even so, Guan Zhuo never relented. However, in order to handle the case, he and Hou Zhong did cooperate to some extent, but it was limited to cooperation. If Hou Zhong and the other three wanted to be open to the Second Prince because of this, If so, that is obviously impossible.

To be honest, Guanzhuo didn't really want to meet Yuan Ji and Hou Yi. He felt that these two people might have come because of the Second Prince's matter, and he didn't have any latest progress on this matter. If Yuan Ji and Hou Yi asked , and he had no answer.

But after thinking about it, Guan Zhuo still asked someone to invite them in. Those two were also ministers, so they still had to give him face. Moreover, even if he didn't see him today, those two would come again. There was no way to hide.

Soon, both Yuan Ji and Hou Yi were brought in. However, to Guanzhuo's surprise, it was not just Hou Yi and Yuan Ji who came in, but four people. However, the other two were wearing loose clothes. , the clothes were hooded, so Guanzhuo could not see clearly the appearance of the two of them.

"Minister Yuan, Minister Hou, why are you here? If it's about the Second Prince, I'm sorry, there hasn't been much progress for the time being, and the Second Prince can't be released for the time being." Guan Zhuo spoke first.

"We are indeed here for the Second Prince's matter." Yuan Ji smiled and said, "I believe that after Minister Guan asks these two people, he will release the Second Prince."

Looking at Yuan Ji's smile, Guan Zhuo was a little confused.

Although Guan Zhuo didn't want to participate in the struggle for power, he still knew what the situation was like in the court of their Yanfeng country. It can be said that the current situation is very unfavorable to Yuan Ji and Hou Yi. They originally had a leading advantage, but now, this advantage has completely disappeared. In this case, can Yuan Ji and the others still laugh? Shouldn't they be frowning?

Moreover, Yuan Ji said that he would release the Second Prince after meeting those two people. Why was he so sure? Who are these two people? Could it be that Yuan Ji and the others found reinforcements from somewhere?

Guan Zhuo was very confused at this time.
