"This case involves Prince Youjun?"

At dusk, the lights of the execution department were brightly lit. Zhao Cuoping retreated to the left and right, and was alone with Su Chengji.

"At present, this possibility is very high."

Zhao Cuo nodded to the dumbfounded Deputy Head Su.

"How did you come up with the idea of ​​going to Prince Youjun's Mansion to check?"

Su Chengji asked incomprehensibly.

"Because I can confirm that Mrs. Yan is innocent."

Zhao Cuo said unhurriedly.

"You mean that Ziyi was ordered by Prince Youjun to frame his master?"

Su Chengji suddenly took a breath! His forehead began to sweat, and his expression suddenly became serious.

"Don't talk about unfounded things. If it's just because Prince Youjun has shares in Huting Trading Company, and several members of the Ziyi tribe are associates of this chamber of commerce, this kind of far-fetched theory is not even a clue. You have to have

in accordance with!"

"Uncle, please listen to me slowly."

Zhao Cuo said calmly.

"Let me tell you my guess first. It all started when I discovered this case on the first day I took office. At that time, it was because someone reported that Yinbi Huafang was secretly selling private salt, so I and my colleagues went on an unannounced investigation. At that time,

I was hesitating whether to search the boat, but at this moment Prince Youjun’s eldest son jumped out of nowhere and spoke harshly to me."

Su Chengji frowned and listened to his narrative.

"At that time, something happened in my family. I saw someone looking for trouble and couldn't help but beat him up. Then I investigated Yinbihuafang. It turned out that the report was for smuggling salt. After an investigation, it was impossible to hit him.

Fushou ointment.”

"This does feel a bit deliberate. If the person behind the scenes wants to let us know that there is a problem with Yinbi Huafang, it would make sense to use a little name to attract attention. After all, directly report Fushou Ointment.

We will investigate it secretly, and it is impossible to spread this kind of thing throughout the capital in a big way."

Su Chengji nodded and said.

"Prince Youjun's strange behavior that day made me suspicious. Then I thought about the benefits of their royal family framing the disciples of the Imperial Master, and the motive suddenly became clear."

Zhao Cuo continued to speak.

"It is rumored that Madam Yan has a grudge against the Queen Mother. If she had been allowed to sit back and watch as she was accused of smuggling Fushou drugs into the capital, she might not be able to escape death. And the innocent Madam Yan should also have a way to prove her innocence in front of her master. As a fire-raiser

If your national master wants to keep his apprentice, he will definitely have a conflict with the empress."

Su Chengji was horrified when he heard this.

"The Empress is at the height of her power now, but once she and Daozong stand on the opposite side, some turmoil is inevitable. Isn't this what the clan wants to see? Only in this way can they have a chance of letting the current emperor take back the monarchy."

What Zhao Cuo said was reasonable and convincing.

"Ahem!"

Su Chengji coughed heavily and interrupted Zhao Cuo's words.

"Don't say anything like this!"

He said with an ever-changing expression, this case of Drinking Bi Huafang actually involves the struggle for the highest power in Dayu? How many lives can it take to dare to wade in such muddy waters?

"But the case still needs to be investigated."

To be honest, Zhao Cuo is already excited!

If the fact that a prince of the clan was involved in the tobacco and drug trade became known to the whole world, then the Dayu court would lose the support of the people! This would be an extremely painful blow to the fate of the country!

Not only did he have to investigate the Bibi Painting Boat case thoroughly, but he also wanted to investigate it blatantly and loudly! Anyway, attacking the royal family was also doing things for the Empress Dowager, so he would not be punished.

"Wujiu, if you really want to follow Prince Youjun to investigate, you'd better ask the empress first. Matters involving the clan will be under the control of the clan's mansion."

"Uncle, don't worry."

Zhao Cuo didn't want the woman to know about this, so he coughed and took out a light green token from his waist, showing the side with the word "zhao" engraved on it in front of Su Chengji.

"The Empress Dowager gave me a token to enter and leave the East Palace freely. I can directly enter the palace to meet the Holy Spirit without any need to see him. Don't worry, uncle."

What he said was that he was considering his own interests and did not mention that he would report the matter to the palace, but it sounded like he would do so.

"That's good."

Su Chengji secretly looked at the token in his hand with fear. He could enter and leave the empress's palace at will. How much favor did he have to have to be treated like this by the Supreme Being?

"Without further delay, we will formulate an investigation plan."

Zhao Cuo lowered his head and turned his attention to the seven purple-clothed people related to the Huting Chamber of Commerce who were found on the table among the more than 500 people.

"What do you want to do?"

Su Chengji's words already meant that everyone would obey his arrangements.

"Didn't that Zi Yi say that he could provide the other opium dens that Madam Yan opened secretly? These stores must also be under her control. The first question is where does the Fu Shou drug come from?"

Zhao Cuo smiled and pressed his finger on the file in the center of the table.

"We can reasonably guess that the channel for transporting cigarettes to the capital is controlled by the Huting Chamber of Commerce. Qin Simin, the distant cousin in purple, is a servant of the fourth caravan of the Huting Chamber of Commerce. He often follows the team to escort goods into Beijing. Now check him

There will be nothing gained, the people behind the scenes must have hidden their tails."

Su Chengji nodded and already understood what he wanted to do.

"Next, we organized manpower overnight to secretly investigate all the stores of the Huting Chamber of Commerce in Xiangjing and the properties of the large trading houses that have dealings with them. Once we found out, I immediately held the empress's decree and personally led people to seal the Youjun Prince's Mansion.

When Ziyi is re-interrogated, she will definitely change her confession."

Zhao Cuo made a decisive decision immediately.

"Can."

Su Chengji thought for a moment and nodded in agreement.

"I will make arrangements now. If the Huting Chamber of Commerce really has a problem, it should be harvested within ten days and a half."

"Can it be faster?"

Zhao Cuo frowned.

"With the Yinbi Huafang incident making such a big fuss, those people will definitely restrain themselves. It's not that easy to investigate."

"Then be more extreme!"

Young Master Zhao tapped his fingers on the table.

"Addicts who are addicted to Fushou Ointment are generally described as haggard. However, all sick people who frequent shops that have even the slightest connection with the Huting Chamber of Commerce will be sent under close observation. If there are any questions, they will be secretly brought back to the office for interrogation.

How can they still keep guests secretive?"

"That's not impossible..."

Su Chengji's eyelids twitched. After a moment of imagining what a huge workload it would be to do what Zhao Cuo said, he felt a little sorry for his executioner.

"After this is over, I will ask the Queen Mother for a reward on behalf of the brothers. I can only ask you all to work tirelessly day and night in the past few days. It doesn't matter if we are all warriors and don't take a break in the short term, right?"
