The days seemed to pass peacefully, but today something strange happened, and two corpses appeared in the moat west of the city. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

After the body was recovered, Li Jingyao was quickly alarmed, because the Criminal Department and Dali Temple agreed that the two bodies were rescued by the two Ding brothers, both in terms of clothing and body shape.

"There is also a strange thing, that is, the palms of both of them have been cut off." Zhao Tianshu told the truth.

Changpu also stepped forward and said his inference, "The minister guesses that this is a homicide case, because the throat and lungs of the deceased did not drown the sediment that the deceased should have, and the murderer must have killed first and then threw the body." ”

"The minister also boldly speculated that cutting off the hands of the deceased was for fear of being recognized as the deceased." Zhao Tianshu didn't want the credit to be taken by Changpu alone, and he was busy saying one sentence after another, "According to the shrinkage and swelling of the skin of the deceased's hands and feet, the drowning time should be about twelve hours. ”

Changpu took advantage of the interruption of his breathing and answered: "That is, the murderer threw the body between the night before yesterday and the early morning of yesterday. The minister felt that the purpose of the murderer behind the scenes had been achieved, and in order to prevent future troubles, he killed people. ”

The two of them hurriedly finished finishing this sentence, and the hall became cold again, and Li Jingyao was silent for a long time before asking, "Finished?" I'm not here to hear you describe corpses, I want results! If you have the heart to fight for credit here, it is better to find a way to solve the case quickly! ”

Zhao Tianshu and Changpu responded in horror, and hurriedly walked out of the imperial study, but after a while, Sheng Zhe hurriedly entered the hall, saying that Changpu asked to see him.

Li Jingyao thought that Changpu knew something but was unwilling to tell Zhao Tianshu that he was going to come alone to invite credit, so he couldn't help but be a little angry.

"Your Majesty, the minister just walked halfway, and suddenly thought that there was something that needed the help of Li Xun's leader, so I came to ask the emperor to grant the minister a secret order."

Hearing what he said about the mystery, Li Jingyao came and asked with interest, "What is the matter?" ”

"The minister plans to use a trick to lure the snake out of the hole and find out the mastermind behind the scenes, so he needs Leader Li to lead the troops to fortify." Changpu looked confident, and Li Jingyao couldn't help but follow him, and he was able to do it with a wave of his big hand.

Changpu, an old fox, was a good trapper, and deliberately sent someone for a walk, and found evidence on the corpse that could be deduced from the mastermind, and someone sneaked into the morgue that night.

Originally, the murderer could have been captured alive, but Zhao Tianshu also brought people over when he heard the news, and in the chaos, so as not to let the murderer escape, Li Xun sent someone to kill him and died on the spot.

After investigation, these three people are the descendants of the Nine Princes' Mansion, and they often follow the Qian Steward on weekdays, and when the Criminal Department and Dali Temple found the Nine Princes' Mansion, the Qian Steward was gone, and he also took away a large amount of silver from the palace before leaving.

Of course, it is impossible for things to stop here, what kind of storm can a palace housekeeper set off, everyone will be suspicious of Li Sheng, the owner of the palace.

The Nine Princes' Mansion was suspected, and Feng Jiu naturally couldn't stay, so he returned to the Rite Mansion with Chen Zizhu.

"Coming back? Where have you been, why don't you say a word, the white son is worried. Ding Mi looked surprised at Shang Fengjiu and muttered.

"Who said I'm worried, of course I know where Feng Jiu went, and I'm very relieved." The door of the study creaked open, and Li Chu came out and smiled faintly at Feng Jiu, "How is it, how are you doing these days?" ”

Feng Jiu has been busy with Liu Wenlu these days, and he is so busy that he is dizzy, and even his complexion is two points worse, and he reluctantly raised his voice and said: "Fortunately, I am very happy to have Zizhu with me." ”

Li Chu glanced at her insincerely, and seeing that she was tired, she really couldn't tell where she was happy, but Chen Zizhu beside her had bright eyes, and her spirit was several times better in comparison.

"I see that your eyes are almost open, let's get a good night's sleep, there are many things that are in a hurry, you have to take your time."

Although Feng Jiu didn't agree with his words, she couldn't wait for a moment at all, but she still accepted Lichu's concern and said with a smile: "I know." ”

Li Chu sent Feng Jiu back to the room to rest, and ushered in a young man with a frown, and couldn't help but quip: "Come to my mansion openly, aren't you afraid of attracting speculation?" ”

"Sneaking up is a mouthful, I followed Feng Jiu into the Rite Mansion, is there anyone else who will say anything?" Liu Wenlu came uninvited, and entering the study was like entering his own home, unceremoniously.

A hint of joy flashed on Li Chu's face, but soon he held back his smile, because he knew that Liu Wenlu's visit this time must be for the king's house.

If he learned that everything was done by himself and deliberately pulled the Nine Princes as a substitute for the dead ghost, I don't know how he would react?

"Chaozong ......"

These two words came out of Liu Wenlu's mouth, with a familiar tone as before, Li Chu couldn't help but recall the events of many years ago, and the life at that time must have been much better than now.

At least you don't have to be false and take it one step at a time......

"Chaozong?" Liu Wenlu stretched out his hand and shook it in front of him, and said with a smile, "You are still so obsessed, I have called you twice and I haven't heard you." ”

Li Chu lowered his eyes and smiled, brushed his sleeves and poured tea for him: "You are here for the Nine Princes." ”

"There are a lot of secret guests outside the palace, I think they are monitoring the palace, I don't know what the floating corpse case has to do with the palace, but in this way, my actions are clearly restricted." Liu Wenlu's eyes were full of anxiety.

Li Chu looked left and right and said something else, "You and Feng Jiu are too anxious, if you want to hurry, you shouldn't know this truth, she is anxious and you are also anxious, and it is easy for two people to do wrong things when they are in a hurry." According to me, you have to restrain yourself this time, don't show any flaws, which one of Changpu Zhao Tianshu is not Zhuge Liang in the fox? ”

Liu Wenlu took a big sip of the teacup, seemed to listen, but didn't seem to listen, put down the teacup and asked, "I want to ask if there is any way for you to make the emperor dispel this suspicion?" ”

"How can it be as simple as you think?" Li Chu made a shocked look, shook his head and said, "You now see that he has withdrawn troops from the Li Mansion and the Four Princes' Mansion, but as long as the real murderer is not found for a day, his suspicion of me will not disappear for a day, the Four Princes are like this, and the Nine Princes are the same." ”

Liu Wenlu sat sideways with some distress, and said, "Tsk", "But you know, the murderer of the Wanshou Palace murder case is ......"

"Shh

Li Chu suddenly put his hand between his mouth and motioned him not to speak, and lowered his voice again: "There is a traitor in my house, and the blow of the fourth prince this time is due to the traitor, you must be careful in your actions in the future." ”

Liu Wenlu nodded cautiously, remembered something, and hurriedly got up and said, "Eh, then I can't stay longer, so as not to be seen as flawed." ”

Seeing his gaze paused on the teacup, Li Chu hurriedly reached out to him and said, "This teacup was made by me, don't fall, I have my own way to explain, go quickly." ”

Liu Wenlu laughed, then turned around and walked out, thinking that Li Chu had something to do, but he chased two steps out and shouted: "If you want Feng Jiu to go with you, why do you have to tell me so much?" Just go and ask Feng Jiu if he is willing. ”

Liu Wenyan greeted the scrutiny of the people in the courtyard, and couldn't help but itch his teeth with hatred for Lichu, and quickened his pace out of the Li Mansion.
