Chapter 74: Catching a Turtle in an Urn

Liyuan

Qiu Niang felt extremely uncomfortable. These days, Liyuan's business has plummeted, and there are no customers, and there are even murders. Originally, it would have been fine for the little phoenix to die violently, but the hateful second dog had to hand over a piece of paper to the yamen. Before the results of this case are found out and have nothing to do with King Ning's son, who would dare to come?

Qiu Niang hated and thought that she shouldn't have taken in those two little animals/creatures in the first place, but she was a little concerned in her heart. Xiao Fengxian is the pillar of the pear orchard and has helped Qiu Niang make a lot of money. Many people come to the pear orchard because of the little phoenix, and there is more than one pear garden in this capital, but because of the little phoenix, Qiu Niang can compete with other opera gardens.

Now although he is angry that the two of them have brought unwarranted disasters to the pear orchard, he feels pity in his heart. After all, where is it so easy to find another pillar for a pillar? There are still children in the garden who are practicing, but they are still too young to carry this burden.

After cleaning up her bad mood, Qiu Niang exhaled and instructed the busy maid, "Xiaohong, you have to hurry up!" Those officials must greet them well, or they will have no chance in the future. ”

"Aunt Qiu, don't worry, it'll be fine right away! Make sure those officials still want to eat after eating! Xiaohong smiled and said, "Qiu Niang, why did you say those officials suddenly came to our garden?" ”

"Whoa! Isn't it just those two dogs, what do you have to say that Xiao Fengxian died unexpectedly! It is said that the corpse has been seen, and the corpse is now actually poisoned, and it must have been poisoned to death! What a wickedness! I don't know which, dare to poison my little phoenix! Qiu Niang has been in the theater garden for a long time, her voice is already loud, and she is angry, almost pouring out like venting.

The other people who were doing things listened to Qiu Niang's words and all lowered their heads. Continue to practice the practice of the exercises, and do the work of the people. In a corner, there was a figure, his body trembling, his ears stretched out a little.

"Aunt Qiu, why do these officials guard that room?" , Xiaohong helped Qiu Niang clean up that room. I don't understand what those officials are going to do.

"It is said that a powdery substance was found in the room of the little phoenix. It is suspected that it was poisoned with incense. Now the officials are guarding the door, waiting for the officials to bring the doctor to come and identify it! It is said that Dr. Wang is very good at poisoning, and it is time to ask Dr. Wang. ”。 Qiu Niang's eyes swept over everyone, and she smiled inadvertently, "Xiaohong, you can send it over." The officials should have been hungry and ate bowls of noodles. The anger is not so big! ”

Xiaohong quickly packed the noodles, and just as she was about to go, a person jumped over, "Xiaohong." I'll go for it! It's so heavy, you carefully have a sore hand. ”

Xiaohong is short, although she is capable. In the end, he is young, and it is really hard to carry two large bowls of noodles. Seeing that the person who came was the running hall of the pear orchard, he knew the summer. smiled sweetly, "Thank you, Brother Zhixia, take it quickly!" Otherwise, the meeting should be confused, and the officials will be angry. ”

Zhixia answered, nodded to Qiu Niang, and walked towards Xiao Fengxian's room with his face in hand.

Qiu Niang looked at his back, her hands clenched into fists, and her eyes flashed with an incomprehensible brilliance.

Zhixia smiled and brought the two bowls of noodles to the two officials, "Officials, this is the noodles that Qiu Niang told Xiaohong to cook for the two of you, the two of you eat them while they are hot, and the noodles should be pasted after a while." ”

When the two officials heard this, their eyes were satisfied, and after glancing at each other, they picked up the noodles and ate them. After taking a bite or two, I felt that it tasted really good, so I took a big bite of it.

Banxia rolled his eyes, looked at the door behind them, and said with a smile, "I don't know why the two officials are guarding the little phoenix's room?" This house, Qiu Niang and Xiaohong have cleaned it, where is there anything else? ”

One of the officials swallowed, "I don't know about this." There is a very good case handling boy next to the adult, and after coming to investigate, he found that there seemed to be some powder left in the room. I really didn't expect that boy to look thin and weak, but he has a hand in investigating the case! When Dr. Wang comes, you will know the result! So we are all keeping watch over the scene, lest you clean up again without knowing it. If the evidence is missing, you're in trouble! After speaking, he continued to eat noodles.

After hearing this, Zhixia nodded, "The two of you use it slowly, the little one continues to do things, this Qiu Niang is by her side, but you can't leave me!" ”

Another official waved his hand, "Go!" Go ahead! Tell Qiu Niang, you don't have to let people come here, adults have to handle cases, and it's inconvenient to see you! ”

Zhixia belched, then turned around and left. He glanced back at the two servants who were still eating noodles, looked around again, and walked from the left instead, making a big bend, and walking a few steps faster until he came under a window.

After thinking about it, he gently opened the window and looked inside vigilantly to make sure that there was no one inside, so he crept up the window and sneaked inside.

Even though it was daytime, the room was very dim because it didn't get any good lighting. Zhixia recited Amitabha Buddha in his heart, and kept inquiring on the ground.

Suddenly, the open window was slammed shut. Zhixia was shocked, turned around and was about to go to the window, only to find that he was tightly locked from the outside. My heart sank, and before I could hide, I saw the door being pushed open, and a burst of bright light shot in.

By the time Zhixia saw it clearly, there was already a group of people standing in front of him. His legs went limp, and he collapsed on the ground.

Liao Kun looked at Zhixia and asked with a dark face, "Boldly Diao Min, if you don't recruit from the truth, how did you poison Xiao Fengxian?" ”

Zhixia smiled, but became frank, "It turns out that you want to catch turtles in the urn, but it's a pity that I missed a move and fell into your plan!" Catch me and go! I killed the man, and I have nothing else to say. After speaking, he stretched out his hands, closed his eyes, and stopped talking.

Liao Kun almost wanted to have a seizure, but was stopped by Ke Xiyuan. Ke Xiyuan looked at Zhixia carefully and didn't miss his clenched fist.

"At this point, your room should be searched. If I were you, I would explain the ins and outs of the matter. You have to know that you are a scapegoat, but no one will be sad for you. Don't know if you have siblings and parents at home? It's a pity that you died, but it's a pity that they have to live a lifetime with the reputation of the murderer's family! Ke Xiyuan's eyes were burning, looking at Zhixia, his expression was very relaxed, and he was extremely sophisticated, not like the first time he had done such a thing.

Zhixia opened his eyes and looked at Ke Xiyuan, "You designed it, right?" You don't have to provoke me, I have no family, and I have a bad life! I just don't like that/person, and it's not surprising to kill him! Don't be smart, I don't have much more to say! Murder pays for life, I still know! ”

"Oh? As far as I know, the deceased was poisoned by cat's polyphylla. And this kind of grass is a kind of grass that only exists in the Western Regions. It's impossible for ordinary people to get it! If the dosage is small, it is a good medicine for blood activation, and it is extremely valuable. Tell me, where did you get such an expensive medicine? You're clearly lying! Tell me quickly, by whom? Ke Xiyuan's tone changed, and he was shocked to learn that Xia didn't say anything for a while.

Liao Kun glanced at Ke Xiyuan appreciatively, this fifth lady is really powerful. It's a pity that it's a female doll. If it is a male doll, this Kefu will have a strong and powerful help in the future.

Zhixia was stunned, and the official who searched the house had returned.

"My lord, I have checked this person's cage, and my subordinates ordered someone to bring his cage over, I don't know how to help." After the official finished speaking, he waved his hand, and two officials came up carrying a suitcase.

Zhixia's body shook, Ke Xiyuan hooked her lips, exchanged glances with Liao Kun, opened the box, and looked through it carefully.

Except for an incense burner, everything else is clothes. Ke Xiyuan thought it was very strange, there were at least a dozen sets of clothes in it, of different sizes, but the stitches were excellent. At first glance, you can tell that he is a needlework master. Ke Xiyuan also knows how to needlework very well now, so he carefully looked at the needlework, stood up, and only took the incense burner.

"Where did this censer come from?" , Liao Kun took the incense burner and asked Zhixia angrily.

Zhixia didn't know why, and looked relieved, "That's the tool I used to kill Little Phoenix Immortal." He will burn incense every day, and I am the runner of this garden, and I will clean up all his house. So I chose to put the poison in the incense burner, I knew that he liked to put on his own makeup, calculated the time, put the amount right, and did it without realizing it. As for the source of this herb, I don't know either, I just found a charlatan to buy it. He seemed to be losing money, so he sold me the medicine. He told me that I was colorless and tasteless, and I couldn't see how I died, as if I had died violently. ”

After all, Liao Kun ate this bowl of rice, and he immediately asked, "Why did you kill him?" Do you have a holiday? ”

Zhixia laughed loudly, "That pickled goods, like the prince of King Ning, he goes to King Ning's mansion every night to do shameless things, and when he is in a bad mood, he grabs me and calls me to get angry!" I wanted to kill him to vent my anger for a long time, but then I got such a good medicine, I want to try anything! ”

Ke Xiyuan noticed that no matter how Zhixia spoke, his eyes would always stay on the box with affection. After thinking about it, he took out one of the clothes and smiled, "This dress looks like it's been a long time, you used to wear it?" He also deliberately flipped over and over to make a big move.

Zhixia saw the things in Ke Xiyuan's hand clearly, his heart sank, and he shouted loudly, "You put it down!" Don't touch my stuff! That's what my mother did, you ......."

Ke Xiyuan put down her clothes with satisfaction and clapped her hands, "Say it!" Who is your mother? Why did your mother want you to kill the little phoenix? What kind of hatred does your mother have with Little Phoenix? Also, did you spread the news that King Ning killed his old love for the third prince of Kefu? ”

Zhixia looked at Ke Xiyuan deadly, suddenly stood up and rushed towards Ke Xiyuan.

Qiqiao was shocked, and he didn't want to think about it, so he blocked in front of Ke Xiyuan. On the side, King Ning Shizi kicked at the rushing Zhixia, Zhixia's body flew out of an arc in the air, and then slammed into the table in the room, struggled a few times, and then never moved again.
