It was as if a basin of water was pouring on his head, and Di Fangxing's words suddenly choked in his throat.

"These people are just small characters after all, and they can stare at them, but the person behind them is not on the list." He Taiping said, "After I got those books, I specifically checked this old official. He has now been one of the people sent by the Ministry of Justice to deal with this matter after the Zhang family affairs."

"That's a coincidence." Di Fangxing sneered, "But I never believe in any coincidence."

"I don't believe it either." He Taiping said, "There is one more thing."

"Tell me!" Di Fangxing had calmed down at this time, "What else is there for this old official?"

"I went to the Ministry of Revenue to investigate the incident about this old official after the Zhang family's accident, and found something interesting." He Taiping said, "The day before the Zhang family's accident, on July 14th that year, the seven-year-old grandson of the old official died."

"How did you die?" Di Fangxing asked, "No matter how big or small, you can say it slowly, I will listen carefully."

He realized the reason why He Taiping must ask him to come here in person. For so many things, it is obviously impossible to just rely on people to pass on messages.

He Taiping nodded: "I was trampled to death by a crazy horse passing by while playing with those children."

"This is really..." Di Fangxing couldn't help but gasp, "This old official has been a little harder. Whose horse is it? Can you report it to the official?"

"I reported to the official and reported to me. I was also the one who was caught. I only got some money in the end." He Taiping said and glanced at him, "Do you still remember the Qingyang County Lord back then?"

Although the name of Qingyang County Lord has rarely been mentioned, it was heard in Chang'an City that everyone was in danger of death. I had countless lives on my body, and I even killed myself as a street stick, let alone riding a horse and trampling on pedestrians. There are many people who were trampled to death and injured every year. However, in the end, except for being punished and confined, most of them were left unresolved.

"Is it her?" Di Fangxing obviously had a deep impression of the Qingyang County Lord. "I remember having made a fuss to my Dali Temple," he said, nodding again. "If this is the case, it's not surprising why this old official can only endure it."

Compared with the powerful and favored Qingyang County Lord at that time, what can an old official without power do?

"According to my Chang'an custom, a relative who dies will have to stop his soul for three days." He Taiping said, "The old official's son and daughter-in-law died early, leaving only a grandson to rely on each other. What kind of treasure is like on weekdays, but the neighbors said that the old official's grandson was buried in a hurry after only one day."

"This is wrong." Di Fangxing reacted and looked at He Taiping, "Your people will not go to open a museum and conduct an autopsy!"

"Since you have to check it thoroughly!" He Taiping said, "We found the place where the child was buried with the guidance of the neighbors. What do you think is inside?"

Di Fangxing shook his head: "I heard it clearly."

He Taiping said: "It's an empty coffin."

"Where did that child's body go?"

He Taiping shook his head: "We don't know, and the neighbors don't know at all. So, we changed our minds and thought about who needed a child's body at that time."

Di Fangxing spread his hands: "I don't know."

"I don't know either. But I thought that this matter was caused by the matter of the Zhang family. Will it be related to the matter of the Zhang family?" He Taiping said, "So, after getting Mr. Pei's promise and His Majesty's promise, I took the coroner to investigate the corpse of the child about six or seven years old who died in the Zhang family."

Di Fangxing's heart was thrilled: "Have you found something?"

He Taiping nodded: "There are bones in several corpses of this age, which are broken in many places, as if they are trampled to death."

Di Fangxing stood up from the chair: "Whose body is that?"

"I specially brought the Zhang family genealogy to check it out," He Taiping said, taking out a genealogy from his sleeve, turning to the last page, and pointing down, "His name is... Zhang Jie."

"This child should still be alive!" Di Fangxing's face trembled and his expression was excited, "No! He must still be alive! There was a survivor in that incident back then, would he know what?"

Seeing him so excited, He Taiping couldn't help but say, "Calm down! How much can a six-year-old child know? And he may not have seen anything."

"Yes, yes, yes." Di Fangxing slapped He Taiping on the shoulder and laughed a few times, "Old He, you have really helped me! Di has really recorded this kindness."

"I'll say it's better if I'm kind!" He Taiping rolled his eyelids: "And this Zhang Jie is not an ordinary child, but the youngest son of Master Zhang. The eldest son of Zhang's eldest son has only two children. The older one is called Zhang Mingzhu, the older one is the young lady who was held in the palm of the old master, and the younger one is called Zhang Jie."

Everything was consistent with the juniors of Zhang's legitimate family, which was more like the child secretly replaced by the old official of the Ministry of Justice.

"Zhang Jie, hahahaha! OK! Zhang Jie!" Di Fangxing couldn't help laughing. He Taiping didn't care about him anymore this time. He only asked someone to take the coroner's autopsy documents and those account books and hand them to him. "I'll give you the things. I can only find so many of them here for the time being. You can check the rest yourself!"

"So many are enough." Di Fangxing put away the account book, "How could an ordinary old official know about this kind of list? How could he exchange a child? Needless to say, this person is probably one of Chen Shan's secret stakes!"

This time He Taiping poured Meiyu into his cold water: This explanation is indeed very likely. Moreover, because of the Lord of Qingyang County, he felt hatred and had a betrayal, which makes sense.

Chen Shan and the late emperor praised a Qingyang County Lord and made everyone unhappy in the capital. What would happen if the chess piece he praised like this? Even Chen Shan would not have expected it! He could not have moved his own people, and he would have made a mistake in the end.

Conspiracy and power are inseparable, but it is not necessarily a good thing to deliberately indulge such a murderous piece that regards human life as a must.

Thinking of this, He Taiping shook his head: He thought of a girl who often said something: The truth of nature is clear, and he is unhappy in retribution. He is really right!
