338 I Know What You've Done (9 The Mystery of the Hand Shadow Part I)
Transporting Li Xinkui's body back to Dali Temple, Liansheng waited until he returned to the courtyard after work and it was already dusk. Hongliu was busy in the kitchen, Leng Nan sat under the jujube tree with a hand bone and meditated, Yesheng had already gone to work, Fangsheng had just arrived home, standing outside the kitchen, and saw Liansheng coming back and shouted, "Sister." ”
"A gentleman is far away from cooking." Liansheng muttered.
Fang Sheng smiled: "Sister, I usually cook with Brother Yesheng." ”
"That's different, don't we have a girl in our family now?" Liansheng is still a little resentful of Hongliu.
Liansheng sat down at the table, Leng Nan clasped his hands, meticulously studying the joints.
"Hand bones." Liansheng stared at the palm of his hand: "How can the bones still be linked together intact." Shouldn't this be scattered? ”
"Stupid, look, these joints are connected by tiny silk threads." As he spoke, Leng Nan tugged at the silk thread in his hand, and the palm that only left the white bones stood upright, and then waved his hand at Lian Sheng.
"How? Fun, right? ”
Leng Nan looked proud.
"Yes...... Really fun. Liansheng suddenly remembered that Mo Lin said that the handprint reflected in the window, if that was true, it was probably also manipulated with such a silk thread, it was not a hand, it could be a glove or something, with a stick to support all five fingers, a person squatting under the window, it is completely possible. It's just that Zheng Hanlin suddenly became nervous before he died, and he muttered something for his life, but the guards could hear it clearly. Liansheng was thinking like this, when he heard the busy red willow in the kitchen suddenly shout: "That thing is here again." ”
Leng Nan played with his palms intently, and said without raising his head: "Aren't they just a few geckos." Fuss. ”
What happened to geckos?
Liansheng looked at the kitchen, and Hongliu came out with the food, with some horror on his face. said in his mouth, "What the adults said, the little woman is timid, and when she looks up at those geckos stacked together, they are like human slaps, how scary." ”
"What geckos? What slap? What the hell is going on? What are you trying to do? ”
Liansheng quickly caught the word slap.
"That's right." Hongliu put down the plate, pointed to the kitchen window and said, "Your Excellency, there are sometimes geckos on this window, and this thing is alone, and it doesn't feel like it's printed on the window." If only a few more were put together. Looking through the window is like a slap on the window paper, and when I look up at it, I am startled. ”
Gecko, printed on window paper? But it was daytime when Zheng Hanlin died.
Rensheng stared at the window. Leng Nan raised his head and asked, "What are you thinking about?" ”
"I'm thinking. Here, oil lamps are lit at night. The shadow of the gecko will be startled when you see it from the window paper, there is no point light source in this daytime, and the light transmission is limited. I don't think I can see it. ”
"What is a point light? But it's hard to say, if the window paper is sprinkled with oil, won't it be translucent, and you can see that black shadow. ”
"There is oil in the window paper! yes, I didn't think of that!
Lian Sheng stood up and was about to go out, but Fang Sheng grabbed her sleeve: "Sister, why are you going." ”
"I'm going to have to see if there's oil on the window paper, I didn't pay attention to it yesterday."
"But, sister, it's so late, where are you going?"
"Something happened in the palace again, right? Now you go to the king, and then follow the king to the palace, and the night will pass. Let me tell you, this is not the way to be an official. As an official, don't do everything in a hurry, everything is done and checked, how can you let your boss see that you can do it. ”
"Haha, what you say, it's really a bit officialdom."
Liansheng didn't expect that a technical talent like Leng Nan would also know how to be an official.
"This is all seen in the county government in the past. My brother is a nerd, he only knows how to do things, and others finish one thing in three days, but he finishes it in half a day, and the boss is not left behind. Leng Nan sighed when he thought of his brother.
"Don't worry, when this matter is over, we will definitely go to Xi'an Mansion to investigate your brother's case."
Liansheng comforted.
She felt that what Leng Nan said was very reasonable, those people in Dali Temple were embarrassed by themselves everywhere, on the one hand, because they were women, and on the other hand, because they seemed to have done too many things, Mu Xiu would be destroyed by Lin Feng, so she listened to Leng Nan's words.
Liansheng sat back again, and Hongliu watched from the side, his face a little gloomy.
"Sister, is there any progress in Director Fang's case?"
Fang Sheng asked while eating.
"Director Fang died of poisoning, and I am still tracing the source of the poison. Strangely, acacia seeds are not bought in the pharmacies in the capital. ”
Liansheng sighed, this morning he said that he had gone to all the pharmacies in the capital and did not find Acacia.
"Acacia poisoning?" Leng Nan frowned: "It must be a Lingnan person who committed the crime, who knows that this thing is poisonous." ”
"Acacia, I've seen someone in the palace who uses it to make Buddhist beads, so you don't have to go to the pharmacy to buy it." Hongliu said on the side.
"Yes, maybe it's the red bean chanting beads, or the red bean hand." Liansheng nodded, "I doubt it now. ”
Hongliu was very happy to hear that his words were adopted, and quietly glanced at Leng Nan, and found that his eyes were only staring at the hand bones that were placed on the side, and a trace of sigh slipped through his heart.
The next morning, Liansheng said to Yu Shizhao, who was waiting for him in Dali Temple: "I'll go to see Xiao Zihui, you go to the palace to see what is abnormal in the window paper in Zheng Hanlin's office." ”
"You're going to support me now."
Yu Shizhao pouted: "The little girl film of the year has completely disappeared, and the years are really wonderful." ”
"Time is a pig-killing knife, are you a pig?" Liansheng chuckled: "Now I have so many things, all thanks to you, if I don't take this opportunity to support you, I won't have a chance in the future." ”
"What if there is an opportunity in the future? How do you want to support me in the future? Yu Shizhao instantly changed from a serious face to a hippie smile.
"Then you just wait." Liansheng turned around and left.
Xu Yan stood at the door, thought for a moment and stopped.
"Follow."
Yu Shizhao glanced at her.
"Your Highness, my master is going to the Xiao family, so I better not go."
Yu Shizhao sneered: "You don't dare to go? ”
"I don't want to go."
"Miss Xu has also traveled in the south, I don't know if you know what Lingnan people often say?"
"Lingnan people say a lot of things, I don't know which one His Highness is talking about." Although Xu Yan was a little scared, she still didn't give an inch.
"Eat salted fish to satisfy thirst." Yu Shizhao smiled slightly: "What your Xu family gets now is what you deserve, don't blame anyone." ”
Xu Yan's eyes were red, and she lowered her head, she didn't want to be seen shedding tears.
"Do you think the Xu family is noble? Larger than life? Look down on Wang Heng? Haha, then watch me trample your nobility under your feet, so that you can taste the taste of being despised and looked down upon, then, Xu Yan, you tell you, are you comfortable now? ”
"Your Highness...... You're shameless. ”
Xu Yan sighed softly and looked up at Yu Shizhao: "As you wish, our Xu family has become the laughing stock of the entire capital, the title is gone, and the family is scattered, are you happy?" ”
As she spoke, she wiped away her tears fiercely.
"It's not that I'm happy, it's that I want to wait for Wang Heng to be happy."
"Your Highness is really retribution." Xu Yan wiped away her tears and said strongly: "But I don't hate you, when my ancestors murdered Concubine Xiao Hui, they should have thought that there would be such a result, the ancestors did evil, and the descendants bore it, I accept my fate, and I don't accept my fate, I want to be like my master, rely on my own strength to let people know and revitalize our Xu family." It's just ......" Xu Yan finally said what she thought in her heart: "It's just, I just hope that His Highness will give me this opportunity." ”
"Okay, this king will see what you can toss."
Yu Shizhao turned around and left with Jinyiwei.
Xu Yan stood there, couldn't help wiping the tears that fell, turned around and went into the house, she wanted to study the file of Lian Shengna and study it well.
Be sure to fight! Xu Yan said to herself. (To be continued......)
