Chapter 258: "Prison"
The group came to Shuncheonfu.
"Lord Wang, Lord Wang, please be seated." Cao Tai looked at King Xuan, the big Buddha, and said with a smiling face.
"Let's try the case." King Xuan shook his folding fan and said.
Wen Jing owes himself and does not intend to kneel, and Cao Tai is not embarrassed.
"Kneel Ho"
Cao Tai's words were glared back by King Xuan, and he coughed dryly twice, and then said, "Gu Yueru was killed by you?" ”
"It's not." Wen Jing said lightly.
"Then tell the official what happened." Cao Tai smiled, looking at the teasing colors that flashed in the eyes of the officials on both sides, and secretly scolded in his heart, you turtle grandsons know a fart!
Cao Tai thought while glancing at King Xuan's face from the corner of his eye, this is not an ordinary prisoner, King Xuan's eyes have been sweeping over him without stopping, and the folding fan still "crackles" twice from time to time.
Wen Jing briefly described the process of inviting them to enjoy the flowers in the Hou Mansion, and then said that after she and Gu Yueru left: "After I separated from the prince, I followed Gu Yueru to the backyard to change clothes, she took me to the garden, entered the house, and then took a set of clothes for me, and then left, I was just about to change clothes, I felt that my consciousness was gradually blurred, fainted, and when I woke up again, I found that Gu Yueru had been killed, and as you can see, the murder weapon was in my hands." ”
"Well, Qi Niang is not a murderer at all! Let them go! King Xuan slapped the table and said.
"Lord Wang, this is not very much" Cao Tai was embarrassed.
King Xuan raised his eyebrows and said, "The case is already very clear, Wen Qiniang was killed by a traitor at all. If someone wants to kill Gu Yueru, they will blame Wen Qi Niang, or the ultimate goal is Qi Niang, Lord Cao should focus on finding the real murderer. ”
"Lord Wang, the lower officials naturally believe that it is impossible for Lord Wen to kill people, but if the suspect is released like this, if the old Marquis makes trouble in front of the saint, this case will only become more out of control, and Lord Wen will not be able to get rid of the crime either."
Cao Tai coughed dryly twice, and saw that King Xuan was not angry. He continued: "It's better to let Lord Wen stay here for a few more days. The lower officials must be eating and drinking well, and after the case is clarified and the real culprit is caught, Lord Wen will naturally be innocent, and the lower officials will have an explanation. ”
Wang Jue whispered a few words to King Xuan. King Xuan's head. Wang Jue is reasonable. At this moment, outside the yamen, I am afraid that everyone is talking about it, and they all regard Wen Jing as a witch. On the contrary, there is no safety outside the Shuntian Mansion inside, not to mention that there are also sinister people in the Wen Mansion.
"Then according to what Lord Cao said, however, if Qi Niang is missing a hair from you" King Xuan glanced at Cao Tai meaningfully.
Cao Tai wiped his sweat and hurriedly said: "Don't worry, the prince can rest assured, the lower official will guarantee the head of the item, and he will definitely keep the adult well." ”
Wen Jing glanced at the three of them, and she was at a loss at the moment, she had handled countless cases, and there were countless enemies, who was so painstaking to set up such a bureau to harm her?
"Qi Niang, what is the use of the blood stains you dipped in the handkerchief?" Wang Jue looked at Wen Jing and said.
"You also saw that around the bloodstains, there are many insects and ants, some insects have the habit of chasing fish, but it is rare to gather so many insects in a short period of time, I suspect that there may be other things that attract insects in this bloodstain, and I may be able to find some clues from it." Wen Jing explained.
Cao Tai slapped his face: "According to Lord Wen, Miss Gu was also poisoned, this toxin entered the blood, it just so happens that this toxin has some kind of medicinal properties that attract insects, if it can be proved that Miss Gu was poisoned first, and if you find out a certain poison, you can find the real murderer, and you can help Lord Wen clear the suspicion!" ”
"It's a pity that the handkerchief was taken away by Gu Liansheng's guy again." After King Xuan finished speaking, he turned his head and grabbed Cao Tai.
Cao Tai's hands were grabbed by King Xuan, and he stumbled at King Xuan's nervous eyes: "What does Lord Wang command?" ”
"You go to Cao's house immediately! Take Gu Yueru's blood! Prevent the murderer from destroying the corpse! King Xuan said in a deep voice.
Cao Tai nodded again and again and ordered.
Wen Jing rolled up her sleeves, and the other bloody handkerchief in the sleeve was not taken out, and what was handed over to Gu Liansheng was one of the two pieces, and she didn't plan to let the second person know about this handkerchief for the time being, she had a hunch that this would be the most important physical evidence.
"Qi Niang, you stay here for a few days for the time being, relax, this king will definitely not let you be wronged." King Xuan stared at Wen Jingdao.
Without raising her head, Wen Jing could also feel King Xuan's scorching gaze, nodding silently, she really needed King Xuan's help at this moment, she was not conceited enough to think that she could do anything, and she had done so many things for King Xuan before, and it was not impossible to collect some interest.
Looking at Wen Jing's calm face as before, it seems that nothing in this world can make her lose her temper, at least so far, he has not seen it, there is such a woman in the world, it is not easy not to be moved by money and power, even if she is in a difficult situation, she is still silent, if she is not clear about Wen Jing's temperament, maybe she really believed what Wen Jiuniang said, how can there be such a woman in the world, Xuan Wang Wu thought to himself.
Walking into the "cell" specially set up for her in Shuntianfu, it was actually just an ordinary wing room, except that she couldn't step out of the door for half a step, it was no different from being at home, and it was much better than the damp, dark and rat-infested dungeon.
"If you are wronged that Lord Wen will stay here for a few days, if you don't have anything, just open your mouth." Cao Tai smiled.
"Thank you, Lord Cao." Wen Jing owes herself.
Although Cao Tai is timid and afraid, Ping Suli likes to shirk responsibility, but he rarely helps to abuse, Mingzhe protects himself, although this time because of the pressure exerted by King Xuan, but Wen Jing is still grateful to him, at this time, the person who does not fall into the well and step on the stone is already helping her.
"Your Excellency!"
Outside the door, Nie Zhutou walked in.
King Xuan's eyes lit up, and he took the lead and asked, "How is it, have you found it?" ”
"Back to the prince, the deceased has been buried, and the lowly duty has not been able to get the blood of the deceased." Nie Zhutou hung his head and said dejectedly.
"Smack!"
The folding fan in King Xuan's hand was broken in half.
"It was buried so quickly, hum, there are no three hundred taels of silver here!"
Cao Tai glanced at the folding fan broken in two on the ground, that one could be worth his year's salary, in just a few days, the prince broke several handfuls, he felt pain when he looked at it, when can the prince's penchant of burning money be changed, simply call it the prince of the broken fan!
"The next man said that the lord was afraid that the government would come again to ask for an autopsy, and the murderer was still caught, so the Gu family decided to bury her as soon as possible and let Miss Gu be buried in peace." Nie Zhutou said.
King Xuan snorted coldly and was very disapproving.
Could it really be the Gu family's doing, Wen Jing wondered, and then denied this idea, if it was the Gu family, there was no need to use Gu Yueru's life as a bargaining chip, just kill a maid and frame her, but there is also a possibility that the murderer and Gu Yueru also have a grudge, killing two birds with one stone.
She doesn't have much intersection with Gu Yueru, and there are not many people who have had holidays with her and Gu Yueru, if this is the case, the scope of the suspect has been greatly reduced, but at the moment she is in prison, and many speculations cannot be confirmed at all.
"Seventeen Lang." Wen Jing looked at Wang Jue and said.
Wang Jue understood, the two walked aside, Wen Jing attached his ear, and explained a few words to Wang Jue, Wang Jue nodded from time to time.
King Xuan raised his eyebrows, looked gloomily at the two whispering people, and then strode out, and Cao Tai hurriedly followed.
Looking at King Xuan's unkind gaze, Cao Tai had a sense of foreboding, and sure enough, he saw King Xuan clasping his hands and making a rather familiar gesture.
"Lord Wang, give" Cao Tai silently handed over the folding fan in his hand.
King Xuan glanced at it, took it and broke it without hesitation, and naturally put it back into Cao Tai's hands.
After a while, Wang Jue walked out, his face still the same as usual, without sadness or joy.
King Xuan narrowed his eyes and stared at Wang Jue, as if he wanted to see some clues from him, but the result was obvious.
The two said goodbye to Cao Tai and walked out of Shuntian Mansion.
"The prince has been looking at the lower official like this, could it be that a flower has just grown on the lower official's face?" Wang Jue looked at Xuan Wang Dao without being salty or indifferent.
King Xuan coughed dryly, retracted his gaze, and a smile rose at the corner of his mouth, this big iceberg, there are times when he can't help it.
"You haven't even looked at this king, how do you know that this king is looking at you?" King Xuan looked into the distance and said.
Wang Jue smiled faintly, and then leaned into King Xuan's ear and said, "The prince wants to know, did Shicai Qi Niang say something to the lower officials?" ”
King Xuan opened his mouth and paused, "I don't really want to." ”
"Since the prince doesn't want to hear it, then the lower official will leave first." Wang Jue gave a salute and turned away.
Looking at Wang Jue's departing figure, King Xuan raised his hand slightly, but swallowed the words back into his stomach.
Cut, don't say pull down, this king will go back and ask himself! (To be continued......)
