Chapter 70: The Dead
Outside the window, there was a sudden thunderstorm, and the night sky, where the moon was hanging high and the stars were shining, became pitch black as if it had been soaked in overturned ink. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 infoThe raindrops were like pearls the size of beans, and they beat wildly on the window lattice. Those delicate flowers in the garden should not be able to resist the destruction of this cold and merciless raindrops!
I am better than that delicate flower, because I am not a delicate flower, so I can avoid the fate of being bullied and destroyed today! However, if I can hide for a while, how can I hide for a lifetime, I have never wanted to try to hit the wall like this time, and when I open my eyes, it will be another world that I am familiar with. But who can guarantee that I will be bled on the head, and the unforgiving reality will remain unmoved.
Tonight I seem to have done something bold that might have lost my head, but I didn't want to go against my heart. At this moment, I looked at myself deeply and asked myself if I had ever been tempted by Duan Hong, saying that it was nothing, it must be a lie, but it had not yet reached the point of making a promise. After all, I was born in an era when women could hold up half the sky, and I was born in a place where mutual affection needs to be cultivated slowly. Here, I am a different being, and only this result is best for me and good for him. Perhaps, I'll figure it out later, but that will be a long time later, and I can't afford to think about it at this time.
Life is the same, death is the same hole, this life and this life, life and death are unswerving.
For a man who grew up in an emperor's house, treats his feelings as he pleases, and has a cold temperament, this sentence is just a beautiful fairy tale for coaxing children, and an empty sentence that sounds very tempting.
I have lived for thirty years, and suddenly I realized that I used to have a timid time, cough, except for the fear of ghosts.
I thought I had nothing to fear in this world, so I like to be in the limelight, grab the lead, and everything is in the wind, and I like to stand at the front of the team and let others look up to my majestic back. But in fact, in the world, in addition to being afraid of ghosts, I am also afraid of feelings.
After a sleepless night, I finally figured out that I was used to being helpless because my parents died very early, and then I worked hard in the police station, and I didn't like to rely on anyone. So I never wanted to find a partner to rely on, so I felt that I was very powerful, very awesome, I didn't need to rely on others, and I could even protect others, so I questioned my sexuality. But after many intersections with Duan Hong, I understood that I was just afraid that I would not find someone to rely on.
Duan Hong promised me to rely on him and take a dip under his big tree. I'm a little tempted, but the situation doesn't allow it, if I wear it back one day, if I die and come back to love Duan Hong, then I will definitely go crazy. So the self-protection system set a danger warning for the weak temptation barrier, because if I fall in love, I will definitely die and devote myself to the kind of person who is wholeheartedly devoted to it, and if it happens, the consequences will be unimaginable.
So, I used the incident that Duan Hong once wanted to kill me to brainwash Duan Hong into not being sincere to me, so as to alienate the closeness to him in my heart, and block my steps of wanting to get close to him.
Early in the morning, I pretended nothing had happened, got up, freshened up, and sat down for breakfast. From beginning to end, Yingcui and Peach, who were guarding me, looked like they wanted to say something, and I didn't say a word.
Duan Hong didn't punish me, I don't think he should punish Chang because of his dissatisfaction, but I suddenly remembered one thing, that is, who is the one in Duan Hong's mouth in Chang's heart? It's not that I'm curious, but I'm very sorry for that person, maybe because of my unpleasant words, someone is going to be unlucky.
I think of Yan Ruyu dressed in red, is it possible, the one in the mouth of Duan Hong, the son of the world, is not the person who is the crush of the Chang family, but Yan Ruyu, who held hands with me that day and was ready to embark on the journey north. If it were him, I wouldn't have to care. He was my first friend since I came to Dali, and I didn't want him to be hurt because of me. It seems that I have to see an opportunity to go to Duan Hong and knock on the side, and ask if the person he is angry about is Yan Ruyu. If it's really Yan Ruyu, I have to find a way to resolve his crisis first.
Because of last night's incident, Duan Hong must still be angry, and it is not suitable to talk about this matter at this time. So I plan to deal with the beggar first, and solve the potential danger that threatens the Chang clan.
Yingcui was sent by me to the Ministry of Internal Affairs to inquire about the news, and I got the news from Xiao Guizi, that beggar is very duty-bound, and he gets along with people very well, and there is nothing wrong with it.
As a result, a few days later, something happened in the Shizi Mansion, and a maidservant named Chun'er next to An Ruren was killed in An Ruren's room. And at that time, the doors and windows were closed, the case was very tricky and weird, when I came to the scene, Chang Liangren, An Ruren and Chen Ruren and Chen Ruren were all there, and there was a group of maidservants and mothers-in-law around.
After I got the news, the true colors of the criminal police who had been suppressed in my heart suddenly poured out. He walked into the house majestically, and immediately shouted inside: "Don't move, protect the scene." "All at once everyone was stunned, and they all looked at me in unison.
As a result, the old lady was handsome for only three seconds, and as soon as she raised her leg and took a step forward, she was very unfortunate to step on the skirt that was mopping the floor and almost fell to the ground. Fortunately, I reached out nimbly, stood firm, and immediately smiled awkwardly and waved my hand inward.
At this time, all the people who looked at me suddenly showed a respectful look in unison, and bent down to salute me, I thought that everyone was shocked by my courage just now, and was about to wave their hands to make everyone flat, when I heard them shout loudly: "His Royal Highness the Prince is well." “
I was still smug, but I found out that these people were originally giving salutes to Duan Hong behind me, and I couldn't help but have a slightly ugly expression, and the whole person was not good.
Duan Hong stretched out his hand behind me and pushed me aside very unceremoniously, causing me to stumble and almost hit the door frame.
"What's going on here?"
I was straightened by Yingcui, and then glanced at Duan Hong very angrily, and said in my heart: You are blind! I can't see the dead people here, it's really a fart to take off my pants, and I want to ask more.
I suppressed the resentment in my heart, stretched out my head from behind Duan Hong to look forward, and found that Chun'er's body only exposed the upper half of her body from behind the screen, and there was a knife mark on her neck, which killed her with a knife, and the shot was very fast, the blood on the screen was not much splashed, and the pool of blood on the ground was very eye-catching. I wanted to take a few steps forward, get closer to check on the corpse, but Duan Hong turned his head and glared at me when I raised my foot, and then stood in front of me, stepped forward, and walked close to the corpse.
Since that night, Duan Hong was full of murderous anger and left the Warm Fragrance Pavilion angrily, and he had never come to the Warm Fragrance Pavilion again. By chance, we met by chance in the garden, and he was also the air that I was, passing by me without saying a word.
I didn't feel sad about Duan Hong's indifference, I just touched my nose a little boringly, and then walked a few steps forward with a disdainful look and squatted on the ground.
Judging from Chun'er's corpse, she should have been hiding behind a screen when she died, which means that she may have eavesdropped on someone's conversation, or broke something, and was tragically killed.
Generally, even if it is a murder plan, it will not kill the person directly in the concubine's room that is so easy to discover. If I were to face a helpless woman, I would have knocked her unconscious first, and then in the dead of night when no one was looking, I would throw her into a well, disguise herself as suicidal, or take her to the deserted back mountain and bury her quietly. Anyway, she wouldn't be killed on the spot, if she had to do this, it meant that the situation was urgent, and it was very likely that there was a voice outside the door at this time.
So, I immediately turned my head and silently observed the crowd around me.
An Ruren and several maidservants in her palace were the first to arrive at the scene of the killing, and the white An Ruren, the sheep's voice trembled so much that I didn't understand a word, and later according to the more daring maids such as flowers, they accompanied An Ruren to feed the koi fish on the edge of the pond for a while, and then came back. Then he found that the door was closed, and then pushed the door open, and found Chun'er's body. At that time, An Ruren was so frightened that he screamed and almost fainted.
The screams of the An Ruren attracted a large group of onlookers one after another, and I knew everything about the rest of the matter.
I set up a simulated murder situation at the scene of the crime in my mind: it should be that someone entered her room while An Ruren was feeding the fish with her maidservants, and as for what the reason, it is difficult to say, so there is no conclusive conclusion. Then, the villain who sneaked in didn't know that there were other people in this room, and Chun'er was probably lazy and fell asleep in the room, and then heard the sound and woke up. Perhaps she was worried that An Ruren would punish her, or that she had heard something unusual, so she hid behind the screen, and was unfortunately discovered by the gangsters. At this time, the gangster should have heard a noise outside the door, and it was very likely that An Ruren and others had returned, so the gangster killed Chun'er before he had time to take her away.
From this, two extended questions can be deduced, one is why the gangster must kill Chun'er, it is very likely that she heard a secret that should not be heard, and it is also possible that the gangster knows Chun'er, if Chun'er lives, it will be very unfavorable to him or her, so he (she) has to kill the killer.
The second problem is that the murderer killed Chun'er in a panic and didn't have time to escape, so it is very likely that he (she) was still hiding in this room when An Ruren came in.
