The Imperial Concubine Just Wants To Be a Salted Fish Every Day

  Chapter 497 I will never dare anymore!

  Mei Guangtao recognized Li Qingyan at a glance, and asked inexplicably: "Aren't you a friend of Li Ji? Why are you here?"

   Li said lightly, he bowed his hand at him: "Qi, please tell Mei Fu Yin, the students are here to assist the prince in handling the case."

  Mei Guangtao did not expect that an ordinary suicide case would be able to alarm His Royal Highness to investigate in person.

  Being surprised, he keenly perceives the unusual.

  He had dealt with the prince and knew that the prince was not a simple character.

  The prince must have had definite evidence. He knew that Li Ji’s death was strange, so he would personally investigate the case.

  At the thought of this, Mei Guangtao felt that his hairline seemed to move back again.

  He couldn't help but touched his forehead.

  This day, can’t it stop?

  He doesn’t ask much, he just wants to commute to and from work normally.

  Why couldn’t even such a humble request satisfy him?

  The prince said coldly: "Go and find out who took Li Ji's body? And Li Ji's residence, where he has been during this time, and who he has visited during this time, you must check it out."

  Mei Guangtao had no other choice but to swallow the pain full of stomach, and continued to work overtime resignedly.

  Under the instruction of the prince, Li Qingyan also joined this investigation.

  Li lightly said that he is a bold and careful person, and his brain is very useful. He extracted all the information about Li Ji in his memory, analyzed them one by one, and then confirmed them one by one.

  With his assistance, Mei Guangtao checked all Li Ji's activity trajectory in the past half month in just one day.

  Mei Guangtao yawned, dragged his exhausted body after working overtime all night, and reported to the prince.

   "Li Ji's hands are not loose. In order to make a living, he usually helps people copy books and settle accounts, so as to earn a small amount of money to subsidize the family."

  "These are lists of people who have been in contact with him recently."

  Mei Guangtao handed over a list.

   "Weichen has been checked one by one according to the list, and no problems have been found. This is a summary after our investigation."

  He handed over another file.

  Luo Qinghan read all the content in ten lines at a glance, his eyes staying on the last line.

  The last place Li Ji visited before his death was Donglailou.

  Dong Lai Lou is one of the most famous restaurants in Shengjing City. The consumption in that place is very high, and Li Ji’s wealth should not be able to go to that place.

  Luo Qinghan asked: "What did Li Ji do in Donglailou?"

Mei Guangtao replied truthfully: "The exam will be coming soon. There are more and more scholars gathering in Shengjing City. They like to have poetry parties and tea parties when they are bored. Someone happened to make a poem in Donglailou that day. Yes, Li Ji did not know where he got an invitation. He went to Donglai Building to attend the poem meeting, but strangely, he hurried away before the poem meeting was over."

  These are all information provided by the shopkeeper and the guys in Donglailou.

  Luo Qinghan asked again: "Where did he go after he left Donglai Building?"

  Mei Guangtao: "He went straight back to his place of residence, and never came out after that. We didn't know that he was dead until the next day when he reported to the official."

  Luo Qinghan: "Who are participating in the poem meeting?"

  Mei Guangtao replied: "This matter is not easy to investigate."

   "Why?"

  "Qin Wen is the one holding the poem meeting."

  Qin Wen is the son of Qin Lie. It is said that he did very well in Taixue. He is a well-known young talent in Shengjing, and he is going to take the exam this year.

  If you want to find out who the guests of the poetry club are, you have to pass Qin Wen first.

But Qin Wen stayed in Qin's house for the past two days. People from Jingzhao's Mansion came to look for him, but he didn't even see Qin Wen's face, so he was given to him by the Qin's housekeeper. Dismissed.

  If it is replaced by an ordinary family, Jingzhao Mansion can forcibly take the person away in order to handle the case.

  But the Qin family can’t.

  Not to mention the small officials below, even if Mei Guangtao, the chief of Jingzhao's Mansion, went to Qin's house in person, he had to be careful.

  No one of them dared to offend the Qin family.

   Luo Qinghan asked blankly: "What are you afraid of?"

  Mei Guangtao smiled awkwardly and said nothing.

  Luo Qinghan turned to ask another thing.

   "Has the person who took Li Ji's body found?"

  Mei Guangtao: "Not yet."

  Luo Qing looked at him coldly.

  Mei Guangtao was numb with his scalp, and there was not much time since he last saw the prince. How come the prince’s momentum is getting stronger and stronger? Just a look now makes people feel uneasy.

  Mei Guangtao bit the bullet and explained: “The person who took the body has done a disguise. The name and identity are all forged. Finding him is like looking for a needle in a haystack.”

   "I don't care about these things, I only want results."

  Mei Guangtao hurriedly said: "Weichen will definitely urge the people under his hands to find them as soon as possible!"

  He lamented in his heart, when it was over, he had to work overtime again!

After Luo Qinghan left Jingzhao Mansion, he went directly to the Criminal Ministry.

Before Yulinwei found out the Book of Changes from the bookstore, the Cui family, as the owner of that bookstore, has been monitored by Yulinwei. As for the young son of the Cui family, he was arrested by the criminal department. Now the person is being held in the prison of the Criminal Ministry.

  Shangshu of the Criminal Department, Dong Mingchun learned that the prince was coming, and hurried out to greet him in person.

  Luo Qinghan asked as he walked into the prison secretary.

   "How is that kid from the Cui family?"

  Dong Mingchun reported truthfully: “According to the instructions of His Royal Highness, Young Master Cui has been specially shut down in a separate room. At first, he kept clamoring to let him out. Later, it was estimated that he was tired and he was safe.”

   "Bring him out, I must interrogate him personally."

   "Here."

  Luo Qinghan saw Young Master Cui in the execution room.

  The little son Cui was originally dead, and he refused to say anything. Until the prince was executed, the little son Cui, who had been spoiled since childhood, was immediately frightened and shaken off everything he knew.

  According to his confession, the "Book of Changes" containing examination questions was given by his father. As for where his father got the "Book of Changes", Young Master Cui is not clear.

  The reason why he sells exam questions is for money.

  The life of the Cui family has become more and more difficult these years. Almost all the industries accumulated by their ancestors are almost lost. There are only two roads they face next-

Either    was completely depressed and reduced to ordinary people.

   Either take the risk and find a way to make money.

  The Cui family chose the latter.

  They have been accustomed to living a life of fine clothes and food, and look down on the people from the bottom of their hearts. If they want to reduce them to humble people, it is better to let them die.

  The risk of selling exam questions is very high, but the profit is also very considerable.

  For money, the Cui family doesn’t mind taking risks.

  Young Master Cui burst into tears with his nose and tears: "Please forgive me, I will never dare anymore!"
