Chapter 797 Why Does Liu Wei Need to Go to Court to Solve the Case? Regret!

"A conspiracy in another country? A rebel?" Yan Zhenli frowned and interjected again: "That said, it does point to something, could it be..."

Yan Zhenli said, looking around the main hall, and finally turned his eyes to Emperor Qian Ling, the Ninth Five-Year Master in the hall, but delicately did not say the next words.

Whether Liu Wei's words were pointed or not is a matter of debate, but Yan Zhenli's words clearly pointed the matter at the head of King Quan.

At the same time, there are also many officials in the court who have this idea.

Now think about it more carefully, didn't Princess Yuping's case happen after the evidence of King Quan's conspiracy to rebel was revealed in the harem? By the way, didn’t Concubine Chang die because of this?

Could it be that King Quan, seeing that the matter had been exposed, simply stopped doing nothing and caused such a series of chaos?

The surrounding chatter became louder again. Liu Wei glanced at the Marquis of the State of Yue, and saw that the Marquis of the State of Yue was also looking at her, and raised his eyebrows at her, as if he was pointing something out.

Liu Wei understood that Yan Zhenli, the Marquis of Yue State, said this deliberately. It seemed that he did not really doubt King Quan, but just used it to bring out King Quan's name and wait for her to clear him of the suspicion.

From this point of view, the Marquis of Yue Kingdom is really on the side of King Quan?

Liu Wei's expression did not change, but she thought in her heart that King Quan really had some abilities. Rong Leng, Rong Su, Yue Guohou, all these characters were actually willing to use him.

Looking at the old man on the throne again, Liu Wei sneered in his heart.

After all, it is unpopular.

"The Marquis's guess is correct." Liu Wei raised his voice at the right moment, interrupting the officials' whispers.

The Marquis of the State of Yue knew that Liu Wei understood his instructions, so he said nothing and just watched what happened.

Emperor Qian Ling noticed something was wrong. After all, he had been in power for many years and was always more sensitive to danger than anyone else.

Emperor Qian Ling looked at the Marquis of Yue Kingdom with obscure and complicated eyes, as if he wanted to see through the person.

The Marquis of Yue Kingdom clearly felt Emperor Qian Ling's gaze, but did not turn his head. He just continued to look at Liu Wei and waited for Liu Wei to continue.

"At that time, the first thing I suspected was that person." Liu Wei said, cupping his hands to Emperor Qian Ling, and said sincerely: "Here, I have something to ask the emperor for."

Emperor Qian Ling looked at Liu Wei calmly, his expression unchanged.

Bringing this topic to King Quan, Emperor Qian Ling didn't know whether it was a good thing or a bad thing.

Liu Wei lowered his head and continued: "I had doubts about the identity of the murderer, so I conducted a private investigation. Investigating that person would inevitably involve Concubine Chang. Therefore, I... went to Changyang Palace. .”

Sure enough, Emperor Qian Ling's expression turned ugly as soon as he said this.

Emperor Qian Ling stared at Liu Wei with his sharp eyes, and his voice was as cold as ice: "Liu Qing, you are a little troubled."

This sentence "many troubles" shocked the civil and military officials of the court.

It's over. The emperor was already unhappy that a woman in his harem was hooking up with his mortal enemy. Master Liu still insisted on digging up this matter. This... wouldn't this bring bad luck to the emperor?

All of a sudden, all the officials in the court were as quiet as ice.

But the person who caused the Holy Wrath looked innocent.

Liu Wei buried his head and said sincerely: "In this matter, I have indeed overstepped my bounds. I also understand that although I was dedicated to solving the case, my method was wrong and it was still a mistake. I apologize today and do not seek forgiveness from the emperor. When the truth is revealed, I will let the Emperor handle me without even a word of complaint."

Liu Wei said it so sincerely. If Emperor Qian Ling really wanted to catch Liu Wei and punish him for not knowing the rules in order to solve the case at this time, he would probably not be popular with all the officials. This excuse is not tenable.

Today, in front of all the officials in the court, Emperor Qian Ling felt a little regretful. He regretted why he asked Liu Wei to solve the case in the court. Although there was indeed some embarrassment in it, now he, the ninth-five-year-old man, was in a dilemma and had no way out.

After being silent for a long time, Emperor Qian Ling finally suppressed his anger and said: "Liu Qing, what did you find in Changyang Palace?"

Liu Wei immediately said: "There are a lot of things found."

After saying that, seeing that Emperor Qian Ling did not stop him, Liu Wei continued: "When I went to Changyang Palace, the matter of Concubine Chang had passed for a long time, and the palace had long been deserted. But what surprised me was that there were still things inside. Really found a clue.”

Liu Wei said, walked to Princess Yuping, lifted the white cloth at the princess's feet, and placed a scroll inside.

Liu Wei took it out, held it up and said, "Calligraphy and painting."

Then, Liu Wei unfolded the calligraphy and painting and said, "This painting is a picture of a beautiful woman. I wonder if anyone can recognize the person in the painting?"

As soon as the painting was unfolded, all the civil and military officials in the court looked at it. The young man took one look and turned away, not because of anything else but because the woman in the painting was actually wearing the attire of a harem concubine. That is to say , this person is a certain concubine of the emperor. Women in the harem are not something that men from the previous dynasty can look up to at will, not even in portraits.

The older man, however, was startled after seeing the woman's appearance, and his expression suddenly became subtle.

Emperor Qian Ling looked at the person in the painting, his gloomy expression once again became darker.

How could Emperor Qian Ling not recognize the person in the painting with such a clear and familiar face? And because he recognized it, Emperor Qian Ling didn't want to look at it anymore.

Liu Wei didn't wait for anyone to express his position, and said directly: "The person in the painting is a deceased imperial concubine, her concubine name is Min, and this Concubine Min is none other than Concubine Chang's biological sister. . And the former owner of Changyang Palace was also Concubine Min."

Concubine Chang's biological sister, Concubine Min, who has passed away, why did the conversation end up talking about this again?

Yan Zhenli touched his chin and asked: "Master Liu, did you say that the woman in this painting is related to the case? Hasn't Concubine Min been dead for many years? Could it be that she could be the murderer?"

Liu Wei shook his head: "The Marquis has misunderstood. What I mean is, how could the portrait of Concubine Min appear on the wall of the abandoned Changyang Palace? You can see, the Marquis, that this portrait has been well maintained. It was obviously preserved by someone." , and since it is something carefully preserved, how could it appear randomly in that messy place?"

Yan Zhenli understood: "Master Liu, you are saying that this painting is not the key point, the important thing is the person who hung the painting? Master Liu, do you know who that person is?"

Liu Wei smiled, but did not answer.

Yan Zhenli saw this expression and guessed: "You know?"

Liu Wei stopped hiding it and finally nodded: "I know, and that person is the key to the entire case."

"How to say?"

Liu Wei turned to look at the Nine-Five Master and said: "Before that, there is one more thing to solve. I am just going to trace the origin of the case and explain it one by one. Regarding the murderer and the identity of the person behind the scenes, I am not afraid to speak out. That is another matter that needs to be considered in the long term.”

Some people couldn't bear to listen, so they tightened their brows and said impatiently: "Master Liu, please explain it bluntly!"

Liu Wei looked at the person who spoke. It was none other than the prince.
