Chapter 12: The Paperweight
After Luo Gong nodded to know, Zhong Xiaoli stepped aside and waited. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
Luo Gong then said to Yu Shi, and he just wanted to talk about the doubts in Zhong Qingchi's study:
"But I found something on the bookcase that was exactly the same as everything on the bookcase, and this thing should have been placed in the opposite direction of everything."
After Yu Shi and Luo Gong entered Zhong Qingchi's study, she walked around the bookcase, and then Luo Gong said that he checked the bookcase and the bookshelf, and she went to the cubicle to check.
Yu Shi still remembered the placement of everything on the bookcase in his mind at this moment, and thought back:
"Paperweight! Adults are talking about paperweights! ”
Luo Gong nodded and said, "That's right, it's a paperweight." ”
Like everything on the bookcase, the paperweight stone was actually placed on the left-hand side, but Zhong Xiaoli had confirmed that Zhong Qingchi was indeed a left-hander, so when he was looking at the account book, he should have held a pen in his left hand and a paperweight stone in his right hand.
After Zhong Qingchi used up the paperweight stone, it should be placed on the right hand side of the bookcase, but when Luo Gong and Yu picked up the scene of the crime, the paperweight stone was placed on the left hand side of the bookcase!
asked Zhong Xiaoli if he had touched the things on the bookcase, and Zhong Xiaoli only swore to the sky with four fingers, saying that since he found out that Zhong Qingchi was assassinated and killed, he didn't say that moving the things in the study was to move around, and he didn't dare to move around at will.
All night last night, Zhong Xiaoli sat by the inner door of the study door and spent the night, and he didn't even dare to sit on the table and stool for the night!
Yu Shi said: "That means that someone has entered the study with Ma Ye, and has also touched the book case with Ma Ye, this person ...... Looking for something! ”
For no reason, Yu Shi's mind suddenly appeared that Yang Ke betrayed her, she guessed that Yang Ke had something important in his hands, so did Zhong Qingchi also have something important in his hands?
If so, is the assassin who killed Zhong Qingchi the same person as the person looking for something?
Did they come to Yiqiu Courtyard before and after, or was it the division of labor and cooperation of the accomplices, one assassinated Zhong Qingchi, and the other was looking for something in the study?
Luo Gong was also pondering this question: "Whether the assassin and this person are the same person, or two people, has yet to be verified, and the first task now is to find out what this person is looking for." ”
Hearing this, Yu Shi turned his head, and asked Zhong Xiaoli:
"Xiao Li, do you know everything about everything in Master Ma's study? Do you even know everything about the bookcase and the shelves? ”
Zhong Xiaoli took two steps forward again and replied truthfully:
"There is nothing wrong with things in other places, but in the bookcases and bookshelves, the second young master never allows small messy touches, and even the maids who are cleaned on weekdays are instructed by the second young master, saying that you must not mess with the things on the bookcases and bookshelves, even if you sweep the dust, you have to come gently."
In this way, there is no way to find out if there is a shortage of things on the bookcase and shelf.
Even if we find out what is less, I don't know what is missing.
Luo Gong and Yu Shi carefully inspected Zhong Qingchi's body, except for a sword in the atrium of the chest, there were no other wounds, as for whether the cup of tonic soup was adulterated with medicine, it will be known after the detailed autopsy will be done after the soup comes.
In fact, if there is any leftover in the cup, it is possible to check whether there is any adulteration by testing the soup, but it is a pity that the soup makes the greedy Zhong Xiaoli eat nothing left.
And Zhong Xiaoli's greedy mouth is obviously also calculated.
Luo Gong said: "What is attached to the account book of Ma Ye, do you know one or two?" ”
Zhong Xiaoli shook his head and said, "This little one is even more unclear!" ”
Also, Zhong Xiaoli is just a subordinate, no matter how much Zhong Qingchi trusts him, he will not show him such an important thing as the account book.
After leaving the mourning hall, the two went to the garden where Zhu Rong and Zhong Qingchi often walked before their deaths.
That garden is not the real back garden of the princess's mansion, it is a small garden close to the main courtyard of the backyard, Ling Qiu Courtyard, which is planted with all kinds of precious flowers and plants, all of which are Zhu Rong's favorites, of course, there are also Zhong Qingchi's favorites, but there are fewer of them.
Zhong Xiaoli led the way in front of the garden and explained:
"Most of the flowers and plants that Her Royal Highness likes are rich, but they are also delicate and easy to wither, and most of the flowers and plants that the second young master likes are tough and weather-resistant, but they are ......."
Yu Shi and Luo Gong walked side by side on the path in the garden, hearing Zhong Xiaoli's words hesitating, obviously some words were difficult to speak, Yu Shi continued:
"But it's ordinary and cheesy, and it doesn't match the richness and magnificence of this garden, doesn't it?"
Zhong Xiaoli saluted Yu and said, "Lord Qianhu is right, I don't know how the adults know?" ”
Yu Shi smiled lightly and pointed to a corner of the grass garden outside the top ten:
"Whoa! Isn't that exactly the same copper coin grass as Yiqiu Courtyard, and the attached horse master can plant such a large piece in the small courtyard outside the study room that he enters and exits every day, it can be seen that the attached horse master likes the copper coin grass very much, but in this garden, only such a small corner is planted, so it can only show one problem - it's not that the attached horse master doesn't want to have a variety of things, but he has concerns! ”
can make the princess have some worries in the princess's mansion, except for Princess Haoying Zhu Rong, there is no one else.
Zhu Rong is a princess of a country, her taste and habits are not low, and she can't be ordinary and cheesy if she can get into her eyes, but the first-class copper money grass is an inconspicuous category, and Zhong Qingchi, who loves money, likes it.
Yu Shi was also a princess in her previous life, and it took her two years to slowly change many habits.
After changing it, Yu Shi found that although she was extremely noble in her previous life, she also lost a lot of fun that she should have on weekdays because of this self-sustaining nobility.
Sometimes when you look at this world from a different angle, you can always see a new world.
I have to say that as Princess Wentai, she has learned many things that the daughter of the eunuch can't learn, and as a jade picker, she has learned things that Princess Wentai couldn't learn in her previous life.
Luo Gong also said: "Compared with peony flowers, copper money grass does look much more ordinary and cheesy. ”
Zhong Xiaoli listened to Yu Shi and Luo Gong say this before and after, and the statement was no different from Zhu Rong, and he couldn't help but feel a little aggrieved for Zhong Qingchi in his heart, and retorted:
"Although the second young master was born and raised in a big family, he has never held himself superior, so he looks down on us people, although the copper money grass is ordinary and cheesy, but it is much more real than peony flowers!"
Unexpectedly, Zhong Xiaoli would speak for the deceased Zhong Qingchi like this, and even the fear of Luo Gong, the commander of the adult, was unconsciously put away, and he was full of grievances for his master Zhong Qingchi.
Yu picked up his heart and said that Zhong Xiaoli was really a loyal servant, and Luo Gong couldn't help but glance at Zhong Xiaoli more.
The garden didn't find anything, the two of them quickly left the garden, and then Zhong Xiaoli led the two of them to walk the road that Zhong Qingchi and Zhu Rong had walked last night.
Subsequently, the two took Zhong Xiaoli out of the princess's mansion and asked Zhong Xiaoli to lead the way to Zhong Qingchi's private business outside the princess's mansion.
