The Lady's Code for Raising Her Husband

Chapter 994 Who killed him? !

Ye Yuxiao's eyes immediately changed when he looked at Zhao Feng: "You are lying. Who gave you this bag of candy?"

Zhao Feng had never seen a magnifying glass at all, and he didn't understand how she came to such a conclusion. Her eyes were obviously panicked: "Princess, I, I... the candy was really bought at Hu's shop. You have to believe it. I."

"I don't believe you." Ye Yuxiao said with a stern face, "I just asked, the shopkeeper and the clerk of Hu's shop don't have the habit of wearing gloves when selling candy, so if this bag of candy is really theirs, The bag sold to you will definitely have their fingerprints on it. But now, their fingerprints are not on the bag, which means that this bag of candy did not come from Hu’s shop.”

Zhao Feng began to stutter: "This is because...this..."

"Princess, stop talking nonsense to her, let us take her back and torture her to extract a confession." The young minister of Dali Temple said to Ye Yuxiao.

Ye Yuxiao nodded and agreed.

People from Dali Temple took Zhao Feng away. Only now did Meng Guiying realize: "Didn't Dong Yi instruct Zhao Fengchao to add sugar to my father's soup?"

"It depends on what Dali Temple can ask from Zhao Feng." Ye Yuxiao said, "At present, there is no conclusive evidence to prove that the murderer is Dong Yi. Although Zhao Feng identified him, She couldn't produce any evidence, but her confession was full of holes and inconsistent with the facts."

With the facts before her eyes, Meng Guiying finally stopped refuting.

After all, she lost her father sadly, so Ye Yuxiao didn't care about her too much. Instead, he comforted her for a few words before leaving with Ouyang Sheng.

Back at Yingchuan Palace, Ye Yuxiao was a little worried. The emperor had just agreed to the reform of the medical system, and something like this happened to Dong Yi. Will the reform be delayed?

But before she had time to think carefully about the reform of the medical system, the young minister of Dali Temple came to the Yingchuan Palace and brought news about Zhao Feng: "The medical woman confessed to the street gangster Li Si, saying that he gave the sugar to Yes, he was also the one who instructed her to add sugar to Wei Guogong's soup. But by the time we found Li Si, he had already been silenced."

Is the case so complicated? Ye Yuxiao frowned: "Have you found the person who killed Li Si?"

"No." Dali Temple Shaoqing shook his head, "Li Si has been dead for at least two days. We can't find any clues and there is really no way to start."

In this era, criminal investigation methods are limited, and it is not always possible to trace the murderer just after a person has died, let alone two days after his death. Ye Yuxiao couldn't criticize the young minister of Dali Temple harshly, so he could only tell him: "Let's ask someone who knows Li Si, maybe you will find something."

The young minister of Dali Temple accepted the promise and said goodbye.

As soon as the young minister of Dali Temple left, Ouyang Sheng called the maid to help him change into clothes for going out.

"Where are you going?" Ye Yuxiao asked.

Ouyang Sheng said: "I will also go to the street gangsters and ask around to see if I can get anything out of them."

Ye Yuxiao was puzzled: "Dong Yi has basically been cleared of suspicion. Are you still so concerned about this matter?"

Ouyang Sheng pinched her nose: "Tell me, who is this incident targeting?"

Who is targeted? Wei Guogong? Not like that. He is an idle prince. Even if someone wants to harm him, he will not go to such great lengths and troubles. The person targeted was Dong Yi? But Dong Yi was just the envoy of the Taiyuan Hospital. Who would first seduce a Duke of Wei and then silence Li Si in order to frame him? Ye Yuxiao thought about it and touched his chin.

Ouyang Sheng pinched her face: "If Dong Yi is successfully framed at this time, what will be the biggest impact?"

Ye Yuxiao tentatively guessed: "Reform of the medical clinic?"

Ouyang Sheng nodded slightly: "If Dong Yi steps down and the hospital is replaced by a new one, I'm afraid this reform will change."

"But why?" Ye Yuxiao still couldn't figure it out. "Who would go to such great lengths just to hinder the reform of the medical center? In other words, the reform of the medical center does not hinder anyone's way. Is that so?"

Ouyang Sheng couldn't figure out this question: "Whoever he is, I'll find out after I check."

Okay, go check it out. Ye Yuxiao helped him tidy up his clothes and sent him out.

At midnight, Ouyang Sheng came back from outside. Ye Yuxiao yawned and stood up: "You came back so late, you must have found clues?"

Ouyang Sheng shook his head, with a serious look on his face: "Dong Yi was assassinated on his way home from the Imperial Hospital. He is already dead."

"What?!" Ye Yuxiao was so frightened that he almost fell down, "Who is the murderer? Have you caught him?"

"Caught." Ouyang Sheng said, "The murderer, a wanted criminal who has been on the run for many years, has been sent to the government office."

"A wanted criminal who has been on the run for many years? What grudge does he have against Dong Yi?" Ye Yuxiao asked with a frown.

Ouyang Sheng said: "As far as I know, this person has no grievances against Dong Yi, and he was probably instigated by others. But he has committed several crimes and cannot escape death. Torture to extract a confession has no effect on him. Until now, He didn’t tell the truth either.”

Ye Yuxiao held on to the edge of the table and sat down slowly: "Who is it and for what purpose? Is there any conspiracy to deal with Dong Yi?"

Ouyang Sheng sat down next to her and said: "Don't think so far-reaching, settle the immediate matter first. As soon as Dong Yi dies, the position of the dean of the Taiyuan Hospital will be vacant. You can go into the palace early tomorrow morning and give it to the emperor." Recommend a few suitable candidates, but don’t let others take the lead.”

It makes sense. Regardless of what conspiracy was behind Dong Yi's death, she should first fill in the gaps that had already appeared. Ye Yuxiao nodded and quickly fell asleep.

The next day, she got up early and entered the palace before the emperor had gone to court. First, she asked the emperor to put pressure on the government to pry open the assassin's mouth as soon as possible and find out who was behind the murder of Dong Yi; Therefore, he took the vacant post of imperial hospital envoy and recommended several young and promising imperial doctors to the emperor.

The emperor agreed to her first request, but when it came to the second request, the emperor was unhappy: "Princess Yingchuan, although the Taiyuan Hospital is engaged in medical treatment, no matter what It is said that they are all imperial agencies, and the envoy of Taiyuan Hospital is a high-ranking official position, which is not something you, a woman, can interfere with."

Ye Yuxiao quickly admitted his mistake and said: "I am just a suggestion. Of course, the final decision of who to use will be decided by the emperor."

The emperor's expression softened slightly and he said: "According to the usual practice, if the post of hospital magistrate of Taiyuan Hospital is vacant, he should be succeeded by the left hospital magistrate of Taiyuan Hospital. The current left hospital magistrate of Taiyuan Hospital is Du An. I have already ordered someone to prepare the official document of appointment. "

Duane? That's not a good thing. Ye Yuxiao wanted to object with all her heart, but the emperor's words were well-founded and he accused her from interfering in the appointment and dismissal of court officials from the beginning, so she did not dare to express her opinion.
