Chapter 535 Jinyiwei Formal Investigation
Chapter 535 Jin Yiwei’s official investigation
Under Jin Yiwei's arrangement, Xie Jin was portrayed as a tragic figure.
In order to enrich the story and win people's trust, Jin Yiwei even made up various versions, some of which were said to be detrimental to Xie Jin, but most of them still helped shape Xie Jin's character.
This is not because Zhu Yuanzhang prefers Xie Jin, but because Xie Jin is an official of the court after all. If he is really a murderer, the court will lose face.
What's more, Xie Jincai is well-known, and anything related to him will always cause a social sensation.
If someone with ulterior motives takes the opportunity to spread rumors and hurt him, it will be a trouble for Xie Jin in the future.
The next day, Yingtianfu.
When Mao Shi passed, Ye Xuan had already arrived at the Yamen.
Zhao Kaifeng and Lu You stood beside Ye Xuan, one on the left and one on the right, one holding the case file and the other holding the imperial edict, with dignified expressions.
At the yamen gate, many onlookers had already gathered, hoping to know what the murder case in Yingtian Mansion was about.
After all, the news is spreading like wildfire now, and Ye Xuan has handled similar major cases before, leaving people with endless imagination.
Now, even if they don't know who Jie Duijin belongs to, they all come here, hoping to see how Ye Xuan will solve the case.
Looking at the people watching at the door, Ye Xuan also felt a little emotional.
Zhao Kaifeng spoke softly: "Sir, do you think we should drive the common people back first?"
Ye Xuan frowned slightly when he heard this.
He looked sideways at Zhao Kaifeng, and then asked: "Are the people getting in the way? Or are the people here delaying their handling of the case?"
This sentence left Zhao Kaifeng speechless and his expression became a little strange.
Fortunately, at the critical moment, Luyou did not sit idly by and just helped explain.
"My lord has misunderstood. He also has good intentions. After all, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and His Highness King Yan will be coming later. If something happens, it will not be good for any of us!"
What he said was the truth. After all, if it were another Yingtian Prefecture Yin, he might have ordered the street cleansing without asking them.
What they didn't expect was that Ye Xuan ignored this remark at all.
His eyes swept around the crowd and finally landed on an old man.
Just when Zhao Kaifeng and Lu You were confused, Ye Xuan had already walked to the old man's side.
Before he even opened his mouth, he forced out a smile to ease the other party's hostility and vigilance.
And this trick worked as expected. When he saw it, he actually smiled at himself. The old man who was still a little frightened at first became much more emotionally stable.
He saluted Ye Xuan and then asked, "Sir, do you have something to ask me?"
Ye Xuan nodded and smiled: "Actually, it's not a big deal. It's just that in this first month, it's inevitable that there will be some bad luck."
Hearing Ye Xuan's words, the old man seemed to have thought of something. He blinked his cloudy eyes and pondered for a long time before he dared to ask.
"Big. Do you need me to recognize you?"
Ye Xuan couldn't help but be a little surprised when he heard this. He really didn't expect the old man to realize his consciousness so quickly.
Seeing Ye Xuan's reaction, the old man also smiled, showing a row of yellow teeth.
At this moment, Friend Luke beside him suddenly remembered something. He pointed to the old man and asked: "Are you Mr. Chen?"
The old man nodded slightly when he heard this, and then spoke with emotion.
"It's really unexpected that after so many years, someone still remembers me!"
Hearing this, Ye Xuan couldn't help but be curious.
He turned back to look at Luke, and saw that the latter had an excited face at the moment, but he refused to speak for a long time.
Just when Ye Xuan was about to become impatient, Luyou finally came to his senses and hurriedly explained Ye Xuan in detail with a smile.
"Sir, this is Mr. Chen. He was the chief prison officer of the Ministry of Punishment back then. After he retired from office, his fate was unknown. I didn't expect that we would meet him again today!"
After hearing Luyou's explanation, Ye Xuan also thought about it.
He vaguely remembered that he once heard someone talking about a widower in the Ministry of Punishment. Because of his superior skills, he was actually rewarded by Zhu Yuanzhang, and was given a fifth-grade official position and allowed him to go home and recuperate.
Now that I think about it, this person must be the famous work in the rumors.
It's just that Ye Xuan is more cautious. He doesn't believe that such a coincidence can happen in the world. He is handling a case, and this gangster appears here.
However, thinking of his current predicament, although Ye Xuan was confused, he did not directly explain it.
After a brief hesitation, Ye Xuan nodded towards Mr. Chen, and then said: "It turns out it's disrespectful to take it so seriously!"
Mr. Chen was neither anxious nor angry. Instead, he showed a smile and returned a salute to Ye Xuan...
Obviously, in Mr. Chen's heart, he doesn't care what Ye Xuan's attitude is.
He asked with a smile: "How is it? Sir, do you still think that I will dislike bad luck?"
Hearing this, a hint of imperceptible embarrassment flashed across Ye Xuan's face.
He asked Mr. Chen, "Have you been living near this government office recently?"
Mr. Chen obviously didn't expect Ye Xuan to ask this. He was stunned for a moment but nodded.
"Yes, even though I have retired as an official, I still have some matters concerning the court proceedings in my mind, so I will walk around the yamen in the capital.
Halfway through, he suddenly lowered his voice before continuing.
"But you also know that my identity is sensitive. If someone discovers it, I'm afraid I won't have a free time. So I often use a pseudonym or observe nearby. Not long ago, I heard that you handle cases like a god. I happened to grow up nearby, and the old house is still there, so I moved nearby, but I didn’t expect to encounter a case so soon.”
When Ye Xuan heard these words, he didn't know if it was an illusion or true. He always felt that the other party seemed a little excited.
But even so, Ye Xuan couldn't say much else, so he could only nod and continue asking.
"In this case, please help me find three or five old neighbors nearby and conduct an autopsy with me to determine the identity of the lunar body. 4.9"
When Mr. Chen heard this, he naturally agreed quickly, then turned around and looked around, and immediately ordered a few people to come out.
His prestige cannot be seen from this matter. He obviously wanted to see the corpse, but none of the people whose names he called declined.
Ye Xuan saw it in his eyes and silently made a note in his mind. Just as he was about to say something more, a cold voice came from not far away.
"Master Ye, the entrance to your Yingtian Mansion is full of people! I am really knowledgeable!"
Hearing this, Ye Xuan could guess who was coming without looking back.
He adjusted his mood, then turned around and saluted Zhu Di. After all, he still had to do things to save his face.
While handing over, Ye Xuan did not forget to add a sentence to complete the etiquette.
"Ying Tianfu Yin Ye Xuan, I have met His Highness King Yan!".
