"In Baiyi Town, do you know a woman named Lin Fengzheng?" Zhao Yan asked immediately.

Xiao Jingye was stunned and suddenly became excited.

"Your Majesty, how could you... know her?" Xiao Jingye asked in surprise.

Zhao Yan said with a deep expression: "You continue to answer my words, don't ask first, I will give you an answer later."

Xiao Jingye looked at Xiao Zijie and Kong Ze, and then nodded.

"Do you have skin-friendly relationship with Lin Fengzheng?"

Xiao Jingye nodded.

"Then...you are the ones who sent people to assassinate them?" Zhao Yan almost thought that what Lin Yuer said was true.

"Assassination? No, they... dare to ask who else is there except Feng Zheng that His Majesty refers to?" Xiao Jingye looked confused.

Hearing this, Zhao Yan suddenly felt that there might be a turning point in this matter.

Zhao Yan continued: "After you left Baiyi Town, Lin Fengzheng was pregnant. Someone reported that you sent a killer to push the pregnant Lin Fengzheng, the six adults who knew about this, and four children all into the water and pretended to be drowning!"

"What?"

"Is Feng Zheng pregnant with my flesh and blood?"

I...I don't know, how could I send a killer to kill her? Then... After returning from Goryeo, I rushed to Changdan immediately. Although the Three Pass Treaty saved Dazhou and Goryeo from the war, there were still many important matters that I had to do. I felt that the matter with the kite was a bit disgraceful, so I prepared to welcome it back to Changdan myself. However, due to the busyness, it had been more than three months since I went to Baiyi Town. At that time, I learned that Feng Zheng and the neighbors around me all drowned. Because Baiyi Town was built, and after more than two months, I did not doubt and had to return to Changdan in my heart. How could I have a murderous intention?”

Hearing this, Zhao Yan's mood couldn't help but get much better, but this was just Xiao Jingye's remark. Without evidence, he was not completely sure.

Xiao Zijie, who was standing beside him, said happily: "Dad, I knew you wouldn't do such a bad thing."

Xiao Jingye asked with a puzzled look on his face: "Your Majesty, I dare to ask who said this. As far as I know, it is impossible for outsiders to know about this matter?"

Zhao Yan took a deep breath and said, "Lin Fengzheng did not die after drowning, but was rescued. However, he had died of illness two years ago. The person who said this was the baby in her belly. If there was no accident, she would be your daughter."

"Ah?" Xiao Jingye's tears flowed down instantly.

Zhao Yan stood up and said, "Wen Xiang, she is in the palace at the moment. You two can meet each other, but in her eyes, you are the murderer of her relatives, and you still cannot get rid of the suspect of murder."

Xiao Jingye nodded.

"I believe that those who are pure will be clear, and those who are turbid will be turbid. Your Majesty will definitely give me a clean person. Can I see her now?" Xiao Jingye said with some urgency.

Zhao Yan nodded, then looked at Xiao Zijie and Kong Ze and said, "Xiao Zijie, Kong Ze, you two should accompany you together. If you find any evidence, report to me immediately."

"I obey the order!" the two of them bowed their hands at the same time.

Immediately, the three of them went out.

Zhao Yan looked at the paper on the table and felt puzzled again.

According to Xiao Jingye, only a very few people know about him and Lin Fengzheng. In that place, Xiao Jingye obviously has no enemies. If Xiao Jingye is really not the murderer, what motive is the murderer who blames him?

Most of the hour later, Kong Ze, Xiao Zijie and Xiao Jingye came to Chuigong Hall in frustration.

The situation of the two meeting and confrontation was almost exactly the same as Zhao Yan imagined.

Lin Yuer naturally believed her mother's words. Before Xiao Jingye came up with evidence, she didn't believe it at all. She believed that Xiao Jingye was making excuses, making excuses, and making lies for her official position.

Xiao Jingye was also very depressed. He felt sorry for Lin Fengzheng and his daughter, but now he felt even more uncomfortable.

And it is not easy to find out the truth about this old case, about twenty-four years ago.

Zhao Yan thought for a while and said, "Secretary Wen, you don't have to worry about this matter. I will send someone to Baiyi Town to find out the truth, and will never publicize this matter before it is found out."

Xiao Jingye bowed heavily to Zhao Yan and said, "Your Majesty, I believe that Your Majesty will definitely find out the culprit and return me to my innocence!"

Zhao Yan nodded slightly, then looked at Kong Ze: "Kong Ze, arrange Miss Lin Yuer to live in your house. After all, it is not convenient in the palace. In addition, Wen Xiang and Xiao Zijie are not allowed to visit."

"As for your order!" the three of them replied at the same time, then retreated.

Zhao Yan stretched out and felt very tired.

If everyone in the civil and military officials of the Great Zhou Dynasty had something like this happen to everyone and would bother him, he would probably die young.

"Xizi, go and pass Shangguan Buyue, let him enter the palace quickly!" Zhao Yan said, then lying on the dragon throne and narrowed his eyes.

When investigating such cases, the Ministry of Justice’s old tricks are not good, and they are also under the jurisdiction of Xiao Jingye. Even if the facts are not found, they may be able to make up a result that is beneficial to Xiao Jingye.

This matter is most appropriate to make Shangguan, who has always displeased his relatives, come to investigate.

Half an hour later, Shangguan unhappy came over with big strides.

"I am looking for Your Majesty, but the results of Shuzhou's new policy have been counted? Your Majesty wants to share your joy with me!" Shangguan asked excitedly.

"I will definitely come out tonight. But I'm asking you to come for another thing!" After that, Zhao Yan asked Xizi to hand over Lin Yuer's complaint to Shangguan Buyue.

Shangguan looked at it seriously unhappily.

After watching it, Zhao Yan told him about the confrontation between Xiao Jingye and Lin Yuer today.

Finally, Zhao Yan asked: "Shangguan is unhappy, do you think Wen Xiang may be the murderer?"

Shangguan thought for a moment of displeasure and said, "Your Majesty, you have not found any exact evidence now, so I dare not make random guesses. However, I did not expect that Wen Xiang, who has always disliked women, also had such an affair. This case is quite tricky!"

"So, I will send you to investigate. This matter should not be made public. You can start a secret investigation tomorrow. Those who were related to Wenxiang must check it out, and no clue can be left behind!" Zhao Yan said.

Shangguan thought for a while and said, "Your Majesty, I don't know if what you want is the truth or..."

He wanted to speak but stopped.

Zhao Yan sighed. If the truth was that Xiao Jingye was the murderer, he really didn't know what to do. Kill Xiao Jingye and almost cut off one of Da Zhou's arm.

"I believe that Wen Xiang is innocent!" Zhao Yan said unhappy when he looked at Shangguan.
