Chapter 252 She is not pregnant

When the court doctor went in to take the pulse, the Chief Justice of the Dali Temple heard the noise and hurried over. Seeing that only Zong Jincheng was there, he looked outside hard, trying to find the prince.

Zong Jincheng smiled and said, "Your Highness hasn't come yet, I'll go and explore the way first."

Dali Temple: "..."

I hate you little brats who can't get enough of your energy all day long.

However, not long after, the court doctor came out and replied in surprise: "Master Cheng, the lady inside is not pregnant."

Everyone was shocked: "What did you say?!"

The court doctor confirmed again and again: "There is no pregnancy, and no signs of miscarriage."

The Dali Temple Minister immediately glared at the official and asked, "Are you sure it was Wang who took him to see a doctor?"

The officer said dully, "Yes... yes, only Wang was not detained and is temporarily living in the backyard."

The Dali Temple Minister quickly responded: "Go, ask another doctor to take Wang's pulse. Also, bring back the doctor who took Wang's pulse yesterday for interrogation!"

"yes."

Due to the unexpected results of the diagnosis made by Zong Jincheng and the court physician, the Dali Temple started work early, and the morning of the new day began with a lot of noise.

The little devil was waiting for His Highness outside with the court doctor. He sat obediently on the chair, his legs swinging happily, and he was in a very good mood.

Hehe, he has done a great job.

His Highness will be here soon, and he will surely praise him again.

The court doctor drooped his eyelids and was about to cry: Why won’t you let me go after the consultation? I want to go home and sleep…

The sun slowly rose, and the Crown Prince finally arrived. He smiled and said to the little devil from afar: "Jincheng, I'll give you the first credit."

The little devil quickly jumped off the chair, ran over excitedly and shouted: "Your Highness, am I amazing? I have made great progress!"

The prince smiled and said, "Yes, the progress is so great that I can't believe it. There are such smart children in the world."

"Ahahaha... yeah yeah, Your Highness compliments me, Your Highness compliments me again." The little brat jumped up on the spot with joy, grabbing his sleeves and spinning around excitedly.

The officers on duty all around couldn't help but smile.

The doctor who was complaining madly in his heart was also somewhat cured...

Forget it, he is just a simple and happy child, why bother with him?

A new day of interrogation began.

Wang was indeed not pregnant, but she was only panicked for a moment after she found out, and then said disappointedly: "I didn't expect the doctor to have made a wrong diagnosis. I thought I could have another lovely child... What a pity."

"You bold woman, are you relying on your pregnancy to trick your mother-in-law into taking the blame for you?" The Dali Temple Minister began to scold angrily again.

Wang's eyes were blurred with tears: "Your Excellency, you are wrongly accused. I really did not commit murder. Liu Wu and I loved each other very much, and our neighbors all knew it. And there are marks on my body, you see, these are all evidence." As she spoke, she was about to pull off her scarf.

At this moment, Liu's mother suddenly rushed out of the dark room. She was listening to Wang's accusation from behind and shouted angrily: "You evil woman, you lied to me! You said Liu Wu abused you, you said you were pregnant and wanted to keep the child, you said you hit Liu Wu the first time to protect yourself and survive! You led me to think of the pain of losing my son, and made me cruelly kill my son with my own hands! You lied to me! You lied to me!"

Wang was startled by her sudden appearance and said in horror: "Mother-in-law, mother-in-law, what are you talking about? I don't understand... Why would I hit Liu Wu? I don't hate him at all. Only you, only you hate him. You killed Liu Wu. Mother-in-law, you are so cruel. How can I and my child live in the future..."

Seeing that she was still so weak, Liu's mother was so angry that she went crazy on the spot: "You bitch, you bitch, ah ah! I'm going to kill you! I'm going to kill you!"

The day before, it was suspected that the mother-in-law took the blame for her daughter-in-law, but the next day it turned out to be the daughter-in-law who deceived her mother-in-law into committing murder. The two women, one old and one young, tore each other apart in the Dali Temple.

Wang was so weak that she was pinned to the ground and beaten by Liu's mother. If the police hadn't held her back, her face would have been disfigured.

On the other hand, the interrogating doctor's conclusion also came out: Wang's doctor, at Wang's instruction, bribed the officials to go to the Dali Temple to make a false pregnancy certificate, and all those were the money that Liu's mother gave to Wang.

The Dali Temple official followed this clue and checked Wang's money expenditures, and finally found out her lover. Wang was plain-looking, but the lover was fair and pretty. He was just a coward who was greedy and afraid of death, and he confessed everything after being beaten.

It turned out that they planned to take away the family property of Liu's mother, so they used Liu's mother's past to make her kill Liu Wu. After Liu's mother was sentenced to death, Wang could inherit the family property in a legitimate way by using the identity of Liu Wu's widow.

The mistress kowtowed and begged for mercy: "My Lord, please spare my life. This was all planned by Wang. I didn't participate in anything. Although I am her mistress, I am actually her kept gigolo, waiting for her to give me money to buy me an official position..."

The Dali Temple Minister finally couldn't hold back his anger anymore, and kicked the Crown Prince without caring whether he was present or not. He said, "I bought it from your father. The court has long stopped the channel for donating officials. Where can you buy an official position? How dare you say such nonsense in the Dali Temple? Do you still have the law of our Great Chu in your eyes?"

The officers were so frightened that their eyes widened.

Seeing the prince move, they rushed forward to grab their master and whispered, "Sir, calm down, calm down, His Highness is still here."

Dali Temple: "..."

Suddenly forgot about this.

It's over. There's no hope of promotion.

The little devil asked in a low voice: "Your Highness, what is donating an official position?"

The prince explained softly, "The court allowed common people to donate money in exchange for official positions. However, although they were all empty titles, some people could use this status to bully the common people, so the court abolished it."

Zong Jincheng let out a long sigh and said, "That's a bit unreasonable and should be cancelled. Hey, that's not right. If the donation system for official positions is cancelled, how can he buy an official position?"

The prince said calmly: "Even if it is cancelled openly, there are still people who can secretly obtain official positions by using connections."

"Ah?" Zong Jincheng tilted his head and said, "Won't this be discovered?"

The prince smiled and shook his head: "There are too many officials, both big and small, and they all protect each other, so it's not that easy to investigate."

Zong Jincheng tilted his head and said, "Then how about letting someone report it? The informant can be promoted and rewarded with silver. This way, we can divide their relationship and achieve the purpose of mutual supervision."

This is what His Highness told him: divide and defeat them one by one.

The prince was not in a hurry to deny him, but smiled and guided him: "It is also a good idea, but the atmosphere of reporting needs to be properly guided, otherwise it may cause factions to attack each other and frame each other."
