Chapter 98

"Since you are not present, how do you know how General Shui Han died?"

Bai Qiu practiced interjection.

Long Chen ignored her and completely ignored her.

"I'm asking you!"

Bai Qiuxuan slapped the table and stood up.

Long Chen crossed his legs and ignored Bai Qiuxuan at all.

Bai Anning was afraid that the two of them would quarrel again, so he asked, "Since Long Shangshu is not here, how can we determine that General Shui Han was injured by Shangguan Wei?"

Long Chen said: "We have checked her injuries and it is indeed in the heart meridian. She also said that she was hit by Shangguan Wei's phlegm at that time and her heart protection mirror was shattered."

The chief clerk of the Censorate next to him recorded one by one.

Outside the door, Xuan Yi, Qing Yue and Zhang Qian listened quietly to the questions inside.

Bai Qiulian suddenly said to Bai Anning: "The three of them are also parties involved, so it's not appropriate to stand at the door!"

"They heard it, what should I do if I wait for the follow-up?"

Minister of Justice Hu Chengfu agreed: "Yes, the three of them are also parties involved and shouldn't be standing at the door."

Bai Anning was about to speak, but Long Chen said, "What is a collusion? Bai Qiulian, you put a hat on me again! Am I a criminal?"

Bai Qiulian's eyes widened, and Bai Anning quickly persuaded him: "Shangshu Long cooperated with our inquiries, but the three of them shouldn't be here. Please ask the Secretary Long to understand."

Long Chen sneered, turned around and waved to Zhang Qian and the other two, signaling them to go outside.

Of course, Zhang Qian and the other two didn't want to do so, they were afraid that Long Chen would encounter danger.

Bai Qiulian took the opportunity to sarcastically: "I heard that Long Shangshu had many confidants in the harem, so it was true."

Bai Anning and Hu Chengfu also lowered their heads and laughed secretly. All civil and military officials in the court knew about this.

Long Chen ignored Bai Qiulian and turned to look at the chief clerk of the Censorate who was recording.

"Zhengbu Li, Bai Shangshu said that I have many confidants, do you think?"

The chief clerk of the Censorate is nothing else, but Bai Qiulian’s husband Li Junjun.

Li Junjun looked up at Long Chen, wondering what Long Chen meant.

"The official...I don't know."

Bai Qiulian scolded, "Are you deaf? You don't know anything like this! A waste!"

Li Junjun was called a waste by his wife in public, but he did not dare to refute it. He could only lower his head and the brush in his hand was slightly trembling.

Long Chen laughed and said, "Shangshu Bai said it well. I do have many close friends, but we are all gentlemen. I am a eunuch. What can I do?"

"I am not as dedicated as Bai Shangshu. I am obviously a wife and my daughter is so old, but I still remember my good lover."

Of course, what I am talking about is Jing Tianlie. Everyone knows the fact that she and Jing Tianlie are hooked up.

Bai Qiulian's face turned red when Long Chen said it, and Li Junjun's face was even colder. The brush in his hand was hanging in the air and swaying. A drop of ink fell on the paper. He didn't deal with it, just staring at the booklet blankly.

Bai Qiulian was furious and cursed: "You dare to say that the general!"

Long Chen sneered: "Have I ever talked about the general? I said your good looks, is your good looks the general?"

Bai Qiulian's face turned red with anger, but Bai Anning and Hu Chengfu did not dare to smile anymore.

Bai Qiu practice is nothing, Jing Tianlie and the others can't afford to offend him.

"Shangshu Long, we should seriously inquire about the case, so don't involve others."

Hu Chengfu, Minister of Justice, came out to persuade the fight.

Long Chen sneered: "Shangshu Hu, you are just slandering. This old witch is looking for trouble again and again. What are you trying to persuade me? You should persuade this crazy woman!"

Bai Qiulian was so angry that he wanted to do something. Hu Chengfu turned to Bai Qiulian and said, "Shangshu Bai, be serious about the case, let alone anything else."

Bai Anning continued: "Shangshu Long, please go out first and avoid suspicion."

Long Chen turned around and waved his hand, Zhang Qian shook her head, but they refused to leave.

"It's okay, this is the Censorate, who dares to assassinate here?"

Only then did Zhang Qian and the other two wait outside.

Bai Anning continued to ask: "According to what Secretary Long said, General Shui Han was injured by Shangguan Wei's elbow, and was injured in his heart. He suddenly died the next day."

Long Chen nodded and said, "That's right, that's it."

Hu Chengfu, Minister of Justice, said: "But we asked some soldiers from Linjiang City. They said that General Shui's jaws were broken and there seemed to be traces of being tortured. What is the reason?"

Bai Qiulian and Bai An Ningjing were waiting for Long Chen's answers.

During this period, the Censorate and the Ministry of Justice were not idle. They went to Linjiang City and asked some soldiers.

Long Chen remained silent.

Bai Qiulian felt that he had grasped the key point and continued to ask: "Where did General Shui's head injury come from? I heard that the scar is very new and very heavy."

"Don't tell me, that was also caused by Shangguan Wei."

Long Chen said lightly: "Yes, it was caused by Shangguan Wei."

Bai Qiulian was stunned for a moment, then laughed and said, "Okay, okay, why don't you write it down quickly!"

Li Junjun was scolded by his wife and did not dare to raise his head and silently wrote it down.

Bai Anning asked again: "What kind of injury did General Shui suffer? Secretary Long remember?"

Long Chen scratched his head and said, "It was the espresso that penetrated the heart protection mirror and caused serious injuries."

Bai Qiulian asked, "That's a blunt weapon injury?"

Long Chen ignored it, Bai Anning asked again: "If it was injured by a eptuagint, the wound should look like a blunt weapon, but that's it?"

Long Chen nodded and said, "Yes, that's it."

Hu Chengfu, the Minister of Justice, asked: "Are you sure?"

Long Chen nodded and said, "That's what it should be."

Bai Qiulian was happy and pointed at Li Junjun and scolded: "Do you remember it?"

Li Junjun lowered his head and said nothing, silently recording the inquiry process.

"Okay, we've finished asking, please let the two generals Xuan Yi and Qing Yue come in."

Bai Anning told Long Chen that because the three of them all listened to Long Chen, and Xuan Yi and Qing Yue were both princesses, they dare not be too presumptuous.

Bai Qiulian said, "No, I can't let him call people. Who knows if he will whisper?"

Long Chen sneered: "Chief Bai will go by yourself, so that some people can gossip."

After saying that, Long Chen got up and left the Censorate through the side door.

....

Fengming Palace.

Yingfeng entered the bedroom, and the empress was reviewing the memorial.

"Sir, the Censorate called Long Chengen over, and Xuan Yi, Qing Yue and Zhang Qian were also called over to question."

"The Fourth Princess has just passed and should be inquiring now."

The empress is under surveillance for every move of the Censorate.

The empress nodded and said, "Release the wind and spread out all the inquiries today, so that everyone can talk about it."

Yingfeng bowed and said, "I obey the order."

....

Emperor Luoxi came out of the Censorate, and Xuan Yi and Qing Yue were waiting at the door.

"Princess, aren't they rude?"

Xuan Yi asked with anger.

Di Luoxi sneered: "Irregular? Who dares? Does Bai Qiu practice?"

When asked just now, Bai Qiulian was particularly rude to Xuan Yi, Qing Yue, Zhang Qian.

So they also asked Di Luoxi if she was rude.

Although Bai Qiulian was not polite to them with Jing Tianlie's support, he was still polite to Di Luoxi, the princess was the princess.

Qingyue said unhappily: "Bai Qiulian is so fierce to us, and even scolded Long Chengen."

Di Luoxi frowned and asked, "Did Long Chengen let her scold him?"

Xuan Yi said, "No, Xiaolong has been scolding him back."

Di Luoxi was then happy: "That's right, I should scold you."

The three of them walked back and saw a carriage parked on the street, with luxurious decorations.

"Whose carriage? So luxurious?"

Qingyue muttered and followed Di Luoxi back to the West Palace.
