Chapter 440: Uncovering the Truth of the Murderer

Jiang Jiantao is a martial arts man with deep internal strength. His voice is not high at this time, but his words are like thunder, which is enough for everyone in the hall to hear clearly.

Only then did Song Shi'an realize that he had made a mistake and quickly covered it up: "This Qian Dahua has killed so many people. I really feel angry. Therefore, when he beheaded, although I was not in good health, I still went to see it, so I recognized it."

"Lord Song was really concerned about the culprit of the epidemic case at this time. Obviously, he was so weak that he was still holding on to see the beheading. He had to see Qian Dahua die before he was relieved."

Jiang Jiantao said something, and then ignored him, but turned to Qian Dahua and said, "Don't you always say that you are wronged? At this time, the emperor has given you the opportunity to shout injustice and not explain the story from beginning to end.

"Yes!" Qian Dahua kowtowed deeply to the hall and began to tell the story.

As for the death of Ma Xianglan's husband, as confirmed by the Secretary of Dali Temple, it was indeed he who sought money and killed him, and there is nothing to justify. However, after Ma Xianglan went to Beijing, the reason why he raised the suspicion of Ma Xianglan's husband's death turned to Chun Shangju's second shopkeeper was not because of his miss, but because others instigated him.

At that time, he was worried that Ma Xianglan would find out the truth of the matter. In addition, there was a corpse at home and was worried, so he went to the pub to get drunk. When he met a stranger and was drunk, the man told him a story that there was a man who wanted money to kill him, but because he transferred the blame to others, he was able to escape. He also told in great detail who the guy should be given and how to blame.

Hearing this, Qian Dahua thought about it himself when he came back, which led to the matter of framing Chun Shangju's second shopkeeper.

At the beginning of the incident, Qian Dahua only said that he was unlucky. Coincidentally, Ma Xianglan was so strong and poisoned. As a result, the whole capital was infected with the epidemic.

However, the more he thought about it, the more he felt that something was wrong, and he always felt that he had been instigated to calculate.

After listening to Qian Dahua's words, Song Shi'an immediately sneered and said, "This is so unreasonable. Even if someone really tells Qian Dahua this story, it's just a story. Who can be blamed by Qian Dahua?"

When Song Shi'an said this, many people agreed with him at that time, but some shrewd people vaguely became suspicious.

"I dare not defend the fact that the sinner did murder Ma Xianglan's husband, but..." Qian Dahua summoned up his courage and shouted, "But the epidemic is not that simple. When I first walked through the hall, I didn't remember it because of panic, but later, I remembered that when I deceived Ma Xianglan, I once saw a few brown-red spots on her wrist, shaped like peach blossoms, which was a sign of recovery after miasma poisoning. But anyone who has been infected with miasma will not be infected again. Ma Xianglan obviously has that kind of peach blossom spot on her wrist. How can she carry miasma on her body when she throws into the well?

As soon as he said this, all the ministers were shocked.

The original epidemic has been found to be contagious because the water source was contaminated. The reason why the water source will be polluted is that Ma Xianglan herself was poisoned by miasma and committed suicide. The well water was soaked with the miasma on her body and slowly spread, which triggered a large-scale epidemic. But if Ma Xianglan was not infected with miasma when she threw the well, why was the water source polluted?

Song Shi'an has noticed something bad. Thinking about the cause and consequences of the matter, he has vaguely guessed the truth.

"Since Qian Dahua had noticed something wrong at that time, why didn't you complain to Dali Temple? Instead, you have to wait until now to speak?"

Song Shi'an stood up and stared straight at Qian Dahua. "At that time, Ma Xianglan's body was still there, and it was easy to know whether there were peach blossoms on his wrists. But now, her body has been burned, and there is no way to judge whether there is a peach blossom spot or not.

The present implication is that Qian Dahua was falsely accused afterwards and wanted to escape his guilt.

When Jiang Jiantao saw his clever tongue, he immediately said lightly, "Lord Song is right. Now that Ma Xianglan's body has been burned, and it is impossible to find out whether there are peach blossom spots or not. However, whether Ma Xianglan has ever been poisoned and cured is not difficult to investigate. As long as you send someone to Jingzhou, you can always get news.

With that, he turned to the emperor and said, "Your Majesty, it's a big deal. I have sent people to Jingzhou to investigate. People around Ma Xianglan's family said that Ma Xianglan was naughty when she was young and often went up the mountain to play. At the age of seven, she was infected with miasma, but because of the timely treatment, she recovered. The minister had brought it and was in the back of the palace. , waiting for the emperor's biography.

The emperor's face was condensed and said, "Biography."

The testimony of the people, as Jiang Jiantao said, proves that Ma Xianglan has indeed been poisoned and recovered. Therefore, it is impossible for Ma Xianglan to be poisoned by miasma when she threw himself into the well.

Now the face of Wenwu has changed. At present, the situation is obvious. The previous epidemic was not accidental, but man-made. At that time, there were many people infected with the epidemic, including the courtiers themselves, as well as their relatives, who were afraid of friends. Now they all grit their teeth with hatred.

Suddenly, countless suspicious eyes have turned to Song Shi'an and Ge Zhida.

Song Shi'an was favored again because of the epidemic and was proud of the spring breeze in the court. As a result, Ge Zhida was able to enter Beijing as an official and invited people to buy people's hearts. It can be said that the spring breeze was proud, and the two people benefited the most. Obviously, these two people are the most likely to be responsible for the epidemic.

However, their spring breeze proudly stepped on the bones of everyone's relatives! This is enough to make all the courtiers intolerable!

Song Shi'an has noticed that the situation is not good, but if he rashly defends the current situation, he seems to be guilty. He hesitated and said, "As Lord Jiang said, this epidemic is obviously man-made, but he doesn't know who the culprit is behind the scenes? Does Lord Jiang have any evidence?

Although he tried his best to calm down, the words eventually brought out three points of guilty, otherwise the evidence would not be mentioned.

"Oh, I don't know who the murderer is yet, but the person who instigated Qian Dahua is obviously very suspicious. As long as he can follow the way, he can finally find the culprit behind the scenes. Fortunately, heaven paid off and finally asked me to find that person. Now I have taken it down and found the truth from his mouth in Chinese. Now I am waiting for the summons in the back of the palace.

Since Jiang Jiantao opened his mouth, he has naturally done things properly.

When Song Shi'an heard the words, his face changed greatly.

The next person who was brought into the Jinluan Hall was a rich middle-aged man, but now he is depressed with a little blood on his body.

fell into Jiang Jiantao's hands. These days, he has suffered a lot and has been tossed and be obedient. Therefore, after hearing the emperor's inquiry, he immediately instructed himself to instigate Qian Dahua to plant Chun Shangju's second shopkeeper, as well as fake businessmen to approach Ma Xianglan and Ma Xianglan. The mother and son drowned, and then sprinkled miasma powder into a nearby well and other things were confessed.

The more the emperor and courtiers listened, the more angry they became, but the more they listened, the more frightened they became.

Ma Xianglan, who chose Jingzhou to find her husband, instigated Qian Dahua to point the spearhead at Chun Shangju's second shopkeeper, and drowned Ma Xianglan, pretending to be a revenge murder, and completely concealing the truth of the epidemic. All the details in the middle are properly arranged without revealing any flaws. If it hadn't been for the cleverness of Ding Wang and Lord Jiang, if it hadn't been for Ma Xianglan who had just recovered from miasma poisoning, I'm afraid that the truth of the matter would always sink into the sea. No one would have thought that this epidemic was deliberately arranged by intentional people.

This person's meticulous thinking, vicious means and bold design are really frightening.

The emperor's eyebrows were knotted, staring at the people below and asked, "Who told you to do this?"

Now, it is clear who is the real murderer behind the epidemic, but the emperor still asked, even if he wanted to hear the name with his own ears, he also wanted the courtiers to hear the name with his own ears.

The man hesitated a little, turned his head to look at Song Shi'an, and lowered his head slightly.

After all, that's his master, and Yu Wei is still there. When he really wants to betray him, he is still a little hesitant.

The emperor shouted coldly, "Who is it?"

The emperor's prestige came down, and then looked at the indifferent ninth highness and Jiang Jiantao, who had extraordinary means. The man finally dared not hide it any more and whispered, "Go back to the emperor, it's Lord Ge Zhida Ge!"

"Bum--"

The emperor was furious and slapped on the armrest of the dragon chair. Use the epidemic to contact the ban and help him invite people to buy people... For the sake of selfishness, don't hesitate to kill thousands of people. What is such a vicious and cruel means?

Jun Yu's eyes were as cold as ghost fire: "Ge Zhida, what else do you want to say?"

When the event came, Ge Zhida calmed down and knelt down: "Your Majesty, I plead guilty."

"Lord Ge, is it really you?" A sharp shout came from above the Jinluan Hall. It was Song Shi'an.

Between his eyes, his eyes were red, staring at Ge Zhida, and biting his lips tightly. His expression seemed to be furious and cold, but he seemed to be as hot as magma, so hot that it could almost burn people's hearts. "I regard you as a brother, and the emperor also treats you well, you... Why did you do this?"

He asked word by word. Every word was very slow. Every time he said a word, he had to pause, bite his lips tightly, and control himself desperately to avoid saying what he shouldn't say.

With his words, a thin wisp of blood fell from the corners of his mouth and drew a bright red track.

In the eyes of others, Song Shi'an is obviously unwitting, and now he is angry because of Ge Zhida's crazy performance.

Jun Yuchen looked at his red eyes and sneered slightly.

"I'm sorry, Emperor! I'm sorry, Lord Song!" Ge Zhida knelt down and burst into tears. "The sinner has been an official in Jingzhou for many years, and he always wants to have the opportunity to come to the capital to see it. Therefore, he had been deliberately encircling Lord Song before, thinking that Lord Song could give the guilty minister such a chance to transfer him to the capital as an official. But after waiting for so many years, there is no hope. Later, I heard that Lord Song was idle at home because of his filial piety, so he visited the capital twice in private. Seeing that Lord Song did not mention this matter in his words, he was a little frustrated. Later, when he returned to the capital, he accidentally heard people mention that Lord Song's eldest daughter is now a princess, and the sinner thought that if he could find an opportunity to let Lord Song come out of the mountain again, then Lord Song would definitely go to a higher level! Therefore, after thinking about it, I came up with such a method. First, it is to enable Lord Song to return to the court, and second, naturally, it is also to enable himself to fulfill his wishes in his lifetime..."
