Chapter 522 Check
This is to tell the Shen family that the emperor cannot just ignore it.
“But there are a lot of things involved in this matter. I have to tell my grandfather when I go back that there is no need to be anxious or angry. Although I dare not say that I am blessed, at least I am blessed by the emperor, so nothing happened.” Shen Chuliu said with a smile.
"That's the best. Your Majesty is frightened." Song sighed.
"I was really shocked, but it's okay." Shen Chuliu smiled and turned around: "Is everything okay at home? How are grandpa and grandma?"
Song hurriedly answered them one by one, and knowing that there were some things that could not be said, she stopped asking.
Since I came in to express my concern, I didn't stay long and skipped lunch.
Shen Chuliu didn't try to keep him and just asked someone to send him away.
However, Qu did leave a silver note of five thousand taels of silver for Shen Chuliu.
Shen Chuliu naturally would not refuse.
When the Sixth Prince arrived, he saw that his mother was not dressed properly, and he subconsciously thought that his mother was still not feeling well.
I was so distressed: "Mom, are you feeling better? Better than yesterday?"
Seeing the worry in the child's dark eyes, Shen Chuliu's heart melted, and he fell back, holding his chest: "I was fine, but my son is so good, I can't do it anymore, I can't do it anymore."
The Sixth Prince was speechless: "Mother!"
"Oh, it's okay. What are you shouting for? Just call me mommy and feel it." Shen Chuliu lay there, too lazy to get up.
The Sixth Prince stood up helplessly and sat over: "I hope you feel better. I was worried about you."
"Don't worry, I was just frightened. I don't feel uncomfortable today, but I still don't have much strength. I will be fine tomorrow." Shen Chuliu became serious, sat up and patted his head with a smile.
“Then has your Majesty found out who dared to harm you?” the Sixth Prince asked anxiously.
Shen Chuliu thought about it and decided not to hide anything, so he told everyone he knew now.
The Sixth Prince was stunned for a long time: "Why did the Royal Grandmother do this?"
Shen Chuliu didn't say anything.
"Is it because of my ninth brother? My grandmother loves my ninth brother the most." The Sixth Prince was a little unhappy: "Even if you like my ninth brother, you can't do this."
"Now we can't say that it was your royal grandmother who did it. It's not that I trust her heart too much. But, she wouldn't do that. Because even if she killed me, your royal father would definitely find out. It's not worth it."
At that time, even if the emperor could not do anything because the empress dowager was his mother, he would definitely distance himself from Zhen Chongyi and the ninth prince.
What's more, unless Shen Chuliu can be killed unclearly, the Shen family will not let it go.
Wouldn't that mean that the Li family and the Shen family are irreconcilable? It would also chill the hearts of the old officials.
But the main thing is that Empress Dowager Li is a person who can be controlled. Even if she wants to harm someone, she can't be so simple and crude, and it won't be so easy to be exposed.
Knowing that the emperor still favors her, isn't this going to drive mother and son apart?
So at the beginning Shen Chuliu felt that it couldn't be the Queen Mother.
So she wanted her child to understand that the harem was not a paradise, and she would not let him have any resentment towards the Queen Mother.
That won't do any good.
"Oh." The Sixth Prince responded weakly.
"It's all my son's fault."
"How can I blame you? Mom is an adult, but something happened to me, too. Don't think like that. Mom will wait for you to grow up, so you have to protect me, right?" Shen Chuliu pulled him and patted his head: "Little darling, you are not cute when you are listless. You have to be good, like the little tiger you used to be."
The Sixth Prince snorted and leaned against his mother.
"Okay, let's do what we should do. Now we have an idea, and we will get results soon." Shen Chuliu said.
The Sixth Prince coaxed his mother for a while, then returned to Ruiqing Palace in the afternoon. The more he thought about it, the angrier he became, so he took He Feiyang and Song Yunze to the Internal Criminal Department.
The Internal Criminal Department was shocked when they learned that the Sixth Prince had arrived.
It's so dirty here, how dare I let the Sixth Prince see it? Zhu Sizheng came out hurriedly: "Hello, Sixth Prince."
"Well, is it an interrogation? Is it related to my mother's matter?" The Sixth Prince asked directly.
"This... is exactly it." Zhu Sizheng did not hide it.
"That's great. I'll go in and listen." said the Sixth Prince.
"Sixth Prince, there is no such rule. It's dirty in here. How can you, a precious daughter, go in?" Zhu Sizheng stopped him.
"Which rule says that princes are not allowed to enter the Internal Criminal Department? I must go in, and you dare to stop me?" The Sixth Prince didn't have a good temper to begin with, and he was already full of anger. How could he say nice things when he was stopped?
Zhu Sizheng was so worried that he died. Song Yunze stepped forward and said, "Zhu Sizheng, the prince's rules don't say that the prince is not allowed to enter the Internal Criminal Department, and there is no reason for you to forbid it. It's normal for the Sixth Prince to want to see the results of the interrogation because he is worried about Concubine Jing. The Sixth Prince is just watching and listening, he won't do anything wrong."
The Sixth Prince listened to his friend saying this and hummed through his nose to indicate that he did not want to disturb him.
How could Zhu Sizheng dare to really stop him? He had no choice but to agree, but he also winked and asked someone to tell the emperor.
If anything bad happened, he wouldn't dare to take the responsibility.
There are many torture chambers or dim cells in the Internal Criminal Department. Because they are all underground, you have to go down there after you come in.
Indeed, no prince is willing to come here.
Among the princes of this generation, the Sixth Prince is the first to arrive.
He walked ahead with a frown on his face, ignoring those who tried to stop him, and went downstairs.
As soon as we got there, we heard bursts of ghostly howlings. All the people who were captured were being tortured. The Internal Criminal Department was ruthless and generally not polite.
Especially after Zhu Sizheng came to power, he renovated the row of houses in the backyard of the Internal Criminal Department, which was the row where Zhu Li, the eunuch of Concubine Yi, died. He directly turned it into a storage room and did not allow people who made mistakes to live there to avoid any more accidents.
Anyone who comes in now, no matter who they are, will be taken underground first.
Those who were not executed were also scared to death.
I won't be polite anyway.
Naturally, Zhao San would not be treated politely when he was sent in, and he would be beaten as he deserved.
He was not tough, but very smooth-talking, and gave the impression that he was afraid of death but was courting it.
After the first interrogation, they admitted that it was Empress Dowager Li's idea. To be on the safe side, after the second interrogation, they said it was the Empress's idea.
So, in the third round, the fourth round, each time he had to admit a different person.
If they keep hitting each other like this, they're probably going to die.
However, Manager Zhang from the Ministry of Internal Affairs was quick to admit that he had accepted the money from Zhao San.
The two people who dug the hole also admitted that it was Manager Zhang's idea.
Now we are back together, it’s Zhao San.
But it was hard to find out who ordered this for the time being.
But Zhao San is also a bachelor. He entered the palace when he was young, and his family has long been lost. Now he is over 40 years old. Where can he find them after 40 years?
His hometown had suffered a disaster, and his parents wandered to the imperial city, leaving him behind. He was sold to the Ministry of Internal Affairs to be a eunuch by an official.
It can be said that there is no family.
I'm a little worried about Haidilao.
