Chapter 447
When the prince said this, he stood up and turned out, looked at his general under the Yulin Avant-garde outside the living room, clapped his palms, and the general bowed and turned to run out. After a while, several Yulin Avant-garde soldiers grabbed a burly man into the living room and pressed him to the ground.
This man is one head taller than an ordinary person, with a burly figure, big arms and round waist, kneeling there, like a hill. However, now it is a slightly trembling mountain.
When Ji Gang saw this man, his face turned pale.
Crown Prince Zhu Gaochi said to Ming Chengzu: "Father, this is a Jinyiwei soldier sent by Commander Ji to Xianfeiling, named Hong Tieta."
The prince made a gesture, and the Yulin vanguards who were holding Hong Tieta were obviously not ordinary people. He twisted his arms as thick as a small tree pole in Hong Tieta and showed his right palm. The prince said to Ming Chengzu: "Father, this guy is the one who left handprints on the cover of the coffin and the inner wall of the coffin of the Concubine Xian! Look at his hands."
Ming Chengzu leaned over and saw that there was a scar in the palm of the man like an iron tower, rolling open.
The prince said, "Take him over and press a handprint."
The Yulin vanguards grabbed the man like a tower, making him unable to move. They forced him to press a handprint on the table, and then dragged him back and pressed him down to kneel down.
The prince took out a piece of paper from his arms, looked at it, and said, "Father, this is the handprint extracted from the coffin lid and inner wall of the Virtue Concubine. You can tell if it is this guy!"
The prince brushed the handprints on the table with a magnetic fingerprint brush, and it immediately appeared. Then, he used a thin piece of silk paper with a semi-dry glue, extracted the fingerprints, dried them slightly, and then overlapped them on the handprints obtained on the coffin. Sure enough, it was not bad at all, especially the crack in the palm. The size and length were not bad at all!
Ji Gang kept circling in his head, thinking about what to do.
Ming Chengzu looked at Ji Gang coldly: "Ji Aiqing, what's going on?"
"This...this...this...maybe they left it accidentally when they checked the coffin..."
"Oh?" The prince's chubby body looked so full of majesty at this moment. "This handprint was extracted from the inner wall of the coffin. According to the confession of the Jinyiwei, they opened the lid of the coffin and found that the body of the Concubine Xian was destroyed. They immediately withdrew from the tomb. So, how did the handprints on the inner wall of the coffin come?"
Ji Gang stammered: "This..." I don't know how to answer. I sweated coldly.
The prince took out a stack of paper from his arms and placed it on the table: "These are handprints found on the inner wall of the coffin of the Concubine Xian. After comparison, some of them were the same as those of the Jinyiwei guarding the tomb!"
Ji Gang was even more frightened. He didn't expect that the prince would have a way to extract the invisible handprints, and his bastards actually left such a big flaw.
The prince said to the Ming Chengzu: "Also, Erchen extracted the waist knives of the Jinyiwei such as Hong Tieta who guarded the tomb. After inspection, not only did he find light yellow blood marks on the blade, but there were rolled mouths on the blade, and some bone fragments mixed with the gaps in the knife tip. Erchen searched these Jinyiwei guards and found blood stains on their sleeves. Moreover, items such as gold, silver, and jade were found from them."
After saying that, the prince clapped his palms and ran into two Yulin Foreward soldiers from outside, holding a large bag of robes, several single swords and a small box, and knelt on the ground. He placed the clothes, single swords and boxes on the ground, and it was obvious that they were the Jinyiwei’s ground flying fish suit and the unique embroidered spring sword of Jinyiwei.
The prince squatted down, picked up the lichen sleeves of the flying fish suit, and showed them to Ming Chengzu: "Father, look!"-Piao Tianwen-Included
Ming Chengzu looked down and saw that there were some light yellow blood-like marks on the inside of the sleeves of the flying fish suit, and the same was true for several robes.
The prince then turned the swords down to the Ming Chengzu to observe. Sure enough, there were faint yellow blood marks on the blade, and there were some white fragments on the tip of the knife, which must have been attached when the corpse was broken.
Ming Chengzu picked up the embroidered sword and sniffed it under his nose, with a faint smell of rotten blood. He was very familiar with this smell and traces throughout his life. He checked all the swords and all of them.
This kind of taste is not in wartime now, and several knives have such taste and traces, so there is no way to explain it by killing a chicken by chance.
The prince then opened the box again and said, "Father, this was found on the Jinyiwei who was guarding the tomb. The son has verified that it is indeed the funeral item of Concubine Xian.
Ming Chengzu glanced at Ji Gang with a blue face and a gloomy face: "Ji Aiqing, how do you explain?"
Ji Gang's body began to tremble and said, "This..., this must be the guards who sneaked into the tomb, steal...theft..." Speaking of this, he immediately raised his voice, "These people should be executed by sternly!"
The Hong Tieta was so scared that he said, "Sir..., this is all you asked us to do it..."
"Fart!" Ji Gang walked forward, kicked Hong Tieta over to the ground with one kick, and drew his sword from the guard beside him to chop.
Ming Chengzu slapped the table and glared at him, "Okay!" Ji Gang was startled, hurriedly threw down the knife, lowered his head and walked back to his original position.
When Yang Qiuchi saw Ji Gang panic, he wanted to kill someone to silence him on the spot, which was very funny. He also sincerely praised the prince's analysis like a decoy. Although he gave him some key points, Prince Zhu Gaochi calmly handled major events, but he already had the style of a king.
Although Ji Gang returned to his original position and stood with his head down, he couldn't help but mutter: "This was done by several people from Kanling in private..."
The prince had heard it, sneered, and said, "Commander Ji, the matter is not what you said. According to their confessions, after these two days of investigation, the prince has found the rest of the people involved in the damage to the body of the concubine. Today, I came to your Beizhen Fushiya Office to catch all the stolen goods!"
After saying that, the prince walked to the living room door, shouted at the Jinyiwei who was surrounded by clans in the courtyard, "Take all those people down!"
A team of Yulin Forwards soldiers rushed into the Jinyiwei cluster with their waist knifes, dragged five or six Jinyiwei out, and pressed them down and tied them down.
Then, the prince walked back and sneered at a senior official of the Jinyiwei next to Ji Gang: "Mr. Sun, you have a share in the matter of damaging the body of the Virtuous Concubine, right? Take it down for me!"
The Yulin Forewart rushed forward and knocked off the black hat of the commander of the Jinyiwei, and tied it up. The officer lay on the ground, crying and shouting for injustice.
The prince ignored him and turned to Eunuch Li and said, "In order to show justice, please search the residences of these people and see what shameful things are."
Eunuch Li bowed and agreed, following a Yulin vanguard sent by the prince, he immediately searched the residences of the captured Jinyiwei.
As quiet as if he was dead in the living room, Ji Gang's face was gone and his body was trembling slightly. Yang Qiuchi smiled, and his heart was filled with gratitude for Prince Zhu Gaochi's impartial grace for his grievances.
Ming Chengzu had a gloomy face and didn't speak. If he didn't say anything, no one in the hall dared to say it.
After a while, Eunuch Li and the person in charge of the search came back and placed a bag of things in front of Ming Chengzu. Eunuch Li said: "Emperor, these are the items found from the residences of this commander and other Jinyiwei, and they seem to be all the items buried with the concubine Xian."
Ming Chengzu bent down, picked up one from the package and looked at it, then glanced at the items in the bag, with anger burning in his eyes.
Each of the items of burial for Concubine Xian was personally selected by Emperor Chengzu of Ming, so he had already confirmed that these were all burial items of Concubine Xian. He was furious and did not interrogate him. He ordered the commander of the Jinyiwei, Hong Tieta and several Jinyiwei Lingchi to be executed and destroyed the nine clans.
