Chapter 61 Investigation



The Ninth Prince was still wondering why his brother asked him to investigate the case.

First of all, the Six Gates were not allowed to intervene.

In his opinion, His Majesty should not be very happy that a prosecutorial and law enforcement agency like the Six Gates is too close to the Eighth Prince.

This was a warning to the Eighth Prince and also a warning to the Six Gates.

Let Bai Luo not forget his identity because of a little favor.

He is the Six Gates of the Dagan Empire, not the Six Gates of the Eighth Prince.

So if you understand this, you will know why the eighth prince was thrown into the Heavenly Prison.

Emperor Dagan would not want the eighth prince Zhao Li to stay in there all the time.

This was just a warning, it couldn't destroy his identity and life.

Thinking of this, the Ninth Prince wrote a letter to His Majesty for instructions.

It shows that you are incompetent and don’t know what to do.

However, he received a handwritten order from the Emperor Da Gan to act at his own discretion. This answer gave the Ninth Prince confidence.

The Ninth Prince changed into his casual clothes, got on a carriage, and arrived at the gate of Wentian Pavilion.

There were two towering vermilion pillars at the entrance, and a huge plaque hung above the gate with three golden characters "Wentian Pavilion" written on it in a sonorous and powerful voice.

There are nine floors in Wentian Pavilion, from high to low, and each floor has its own different function.

The corridors are lined with luxurious antique furniture and exquisite blue and white porcelain, each piece of which is unique and ingenious.

I saw the Ninth Prince coming, even though he was wearing casual clothes today.

But the servant of Wentian Pavilion saw the nobleness of the person in front of him at a glance, and hurriedly went up to greet him.

After the Ninth Prince's entourage revealed their identities, they welcomed him to the top floor of the Wentian Pavilion.

The decoration on this floor is a bit simpler, and it looks simple and solemn.

A faint scent of incense wafted over, making the Ninth Prince feel a lot lighter.

When I looked up, I saw a man with short red hair, wearing a black robe engraved with red cloud patterns, and his eyes were extremely deep.

"Ninth Prince, long time no see. Have you encountered any troubles again?" Zhao Gao's voice seemed a little shrill, but it had a strange charm that made people feel good when they heard it.

"Long time no see. I want to see the scenery of your Wentian Tower." The Ninth Prince laughed and turned to look at the prosperous Chang'an outside the window.

The Ninth Prince had come to Wentian Pavilion to do business before, and the two of them were basically familiar with each other.

Zhao Gao waved his hand and asked his men to prepare tea and chairs.

The Ninth Prince was not in a hurry, and Zhao Gao did not rush them either. The two of them drank tea leisurely.

It seemed that everyone had their own thoughts, and even the deep flavor of the top-quality Dahongpao could not be tasted.

Finally, the Ninth Prince couldn't help himself and said, "Mr. Zhao, do you know what happened in the capital recently?"

Zhao Gao listened to this, put down the teacup, revealed his fair hands, and personally poured another cup of tea for the Ninth Prince, saying:

“Of course, a lot of things happened in the capital city of Chang’an, but countless things also happened every day.

The Ninth Prince wants to ask, on the surface, the eldest prince has returned to the capital to provide disaster relief, and the Liang State delegation has arrived,

And...the news that the tenth prince was assassinated.

There's a lot of secret information out there. I wonder what the Ninth Prince wants to ask? I'll do my best to answer."

The Ninth Prince pondered for a moment, looked around, and saw no one else. He then heard that the Wentian Pavilion actually knew about the assassination of the prince.

You know, in order to maintain the dignity of the royal family, this kind of news would never be spread outside except to some royal family members and ministers.

The information channels of Wentian Pavilion should not be underestimated.

Then he spoke softly, "Mr. Zhao, I know that you, the Wentian Pavilion, have great magical powers.

Sometimes, when the Six Gates investigate a case, they will ask you some questions.

"I have something I'd like to ask you privately. Is it true that the Tenth Prince was assassinated? Who was responsible? Do you have any clues?"

Zhao Gao was not surprised when he heard this:

“I’ve long heard that the Ninth Prince has been given an important position and has been favored by His Majesty. It seems to be true.

I didn't expect that such a case would be handled by you, the Ninth Prince. It's a happy thing that His Majesty trusts you so much.

If the Ninth Prince came here, he would probably just ask a few questions casually.

Just like questioning during an investigation, there is nothing wrong with it, and I can also express my opinion.

It's also the duty of an investigator to be open to a wide range of opinions."

Zhao Gao said this, and the Ninth Prince felt very comfortable listening to his words.

After all, it was inappropriate for the Ninth Prince to hand over this royal case to an outsider.

But as Zhao Gao said, these were just some of Zhao Gao's private guesses.

Just like when the imperial court sometimes handles cases, it needs the help of martial arts sects.

There is nothing wrong with my action, but I am just trying to gain more advice.

Besides, how to deal with this matter still needs to be decided by His Majesty the Emperor.

I don't have any decision-making ability, so it's not a big deal to ask someone for a little help.

Maybe this is what the emperor meant?

"Here are some basic details about this matter. Please review it, Mr. Zhao."

The Ninth Prince took out a small piece of paper on which he had copied some details of the case.

The official files have not been produced yet. If they were produced, it would be a leak.

This kind of operation is considered to be skirting the line, and at most it can be considered as accepting the opinions of hundreds of people.

Zhao Gao took the memorial, glanced at it casually, and nodded.

"Ninth Prince, this case is of great importance. We both took risks, but it is also our responsibility to help others solve their problems.

Please don't tell anyone else, Your Highness.

As for whether we can crack it, please give us three days and we will organize the information.

No matter what, I will give you an answer."
