Chapter 123: Turmoil
The murderer clearly knew He Yun's life experience, so he asked him to take the blame, not only to make him have a dislike for Wu Zuogu, but also to provoke Helian Zhu's hatred of him! Thinking about who he has never had a grudge with, who would be so vicious to frame him?
After thinking about it for a while, he asked: "Is there anyone who is very close to the disabled soldier?" ”
Helian Che shook his head again: "The soldiers of Zhao'an were originally just some mountain refugees, and they were only retained in the military camp because of their meritorious escort on the way down, and the people close to them were just ordinary people. ”
It's even more strange to say this, who used He Yun to sow discord between the three parties?
At this moment, a small soldier stepped forward and made a gesture to several big people, and finally looked at Qi Zuo and asked: "What we found in cleaning up the scene just now, Qi Zuo, is this your thing?" ”
The soldier took out a copper tweezer the length of chopsticks.
His eyes lit up, he nodded again and again, and thanked him gratefully: "It's exactly what the villain used for the autopsy, and I don't know what to do when I rummage around, thank you so much for this big brother!" ”
Helian Che's gaze was cold, fixed on the tweezers.
Thanks for his great gratitude, he retrieved the tweezers from the soldiers.
At that time, a hand suddenly grabbed the wrist of the man, and the man was startled, and the thin body trembled obviously, and he looked at the middle-aged man in brocade clothes along the hand on his wrist.
Seeing that he was staring at him with a cannibalistic and ferocious gaze, he didn't know what he had done, so he was so frightened that he hurriedly wanted to kneel, but Helian Zhu grabbed his arm and told him to kneel, and he couldn't stand still.
Helian Zhu's gaze wandered from his face to the copper tweezers in his hand, snatched them over, and carefully removed a small piece of wet paper from the top of the tweezers, and examined it.
This is obviously a piece of burned paper, the shallow burn marks on the edge seem to have been traced with an ink pen, and there are a few words and a red name seal on it, because the handwriting and name seal have been blurred because of the long-term immersion in water, but even so, you can still vaguely see that the name seal on it is He Yun, and four of the words - the holy queen wants to kill.
The Holy Queen wants to kill......
At the beginning, he and the Liang Party both called Empress Liang the Queen Mother of the Holy Lord, but now there is no doubt who this Holy Empress refers to, and who is the murderer of He Yun, the answer is already clear on paper.
Helian squinted her eyes and speculated, and soon understood the "truth", she was proud of her spring breeze recently, and she must have touched the queen mother's mold, so she killed He Yun, the purpose was to file his sharpness.
And He Yun must have seen something, so he wrote a letter to ask for help, but before he had a chance to send the letter, he ushered in the disaster of death.
As mentioned above, since the advent of the Shenshi oracle, the people coerced the Queen Mother to retreat, the emperor was pro-government, and the Queen Mother's party gradually weakened, at this time he became the emperor's relied on the first assistant, and the scenery was infinite for a while, although the Queen Mother hated him for suddenly changing his position, but what he didn't want to see was that he Helian Note was the dominant family, in order to avoid the threat of Liang's status, the Queen Mother filed him at the same time, but also hoped to use He Yun's death to achieve a situation where the three of them contained each other, so that He Yun's letter for help was burned. and dumped his body at Cheng Ji's station. Imagine that He Yun is Wu Zuogu's Zhonglang will now die tragically in Cheng Jiao's station, if there is no law, Wu Zuogu is afraid that it is not so easy to give up, Cheng Ji because his nephew is his son and daughter of Helian Note and has an inextricable connection with him, Cheng Ji has long hated him to the bone, and now he is standing here, Cheng Ji is afraid that he would immediately give He Yun's mother and son their lives, it can be seen that the ultimate goal of Liang Hou is to use Wu Zuogu to contain Cheng Ji, and to use Cheng Ji's hatred to contain him.
Helian Che was almost sure of this guess in his heart.
The outside world doesn't know the relationship between He Yun and him, and now that he appears here for no reason, it is really rash to think about it, in case he is framed by Cheng Ji and he killed He Yun......
Thinking of this, Helian Zhu felt that he didn't have the ability to frame Cheng Ji with empty white teeth, and even if he secretly retaliated against him, he would have a way to deal with it.
It's just that this piece of paper ......
If the letter was burned, why was it left in vain? It also happened to be with He Yun's corpse?
Is there such a coincidence?
Helian Zhu's eyes were full of doubt, his eyes were locked on the piece of paper in his hand, trying to see clues in this corner, and then he put the piece of paper in his hand and asked, "Where did you find this piece of paper?" ”
As a surprise, he looked at Helian Zhu in a daze, and his expression seemed to say: "What was found on the autopsy kit, apart from being found on the corpse, where else could it be?" ”
Although he wanted to pour out the content of the belly, he was afraid of this middle-aged man with an unkind face, so he twisted his fingers and shrunk and said, "It's on the corpse." ”
This is taking him for a fool.
Helian Zhu was patient, if he wasn't afraid of being caught in front of so many people, he really wanted to kill this daring untouchable man with one palm, so he gritted his teeth and said fiercely: "This Taishi is asking where it is!" ”
Seeing that his face became more and more gloomy, he only felt that he was a little more terrible than the dead people he dealt with every day, and he was so frightened that he replied repeatedly: "The corpse's ...... Mouth! ”
"In the mouth?" Helian Zhu's expression froze on his face, completely stunned, as if he didn't expect the answer to be like this.
In order to get his life back, he said everything he knew: "During the autopsy, the villain found that the deceased's oral bite was abnormal, which should be caused by the deceased's emotional agitation before death, and he tried to pry it open, and only to see that there was a piece of paper on his tongue to remove the stagnant water, since he was so protected by the deceased, the villain knew that this must be something very important, and he wanted to report to the general, but after the villain finished the autopsy, he found that the tweezers were missing, and the search was unsuccessful, and the villain was afraid that the general would blame, so he wanted to hide from the world." ”
I see.
Helian Zhu's gaze moved from Cheng Zuo's body to Cheng Ji.
"Dare to deceive the general!" Cheng Ji was full of sorrow and anger and had nowhere to vent, just ran into a knife that hit him, where would he easily let it go?
Then he scolded angrily, drew his knife violently, and stepped forward to kill.
Seeing the cold blade approaching him, his legs couldn't help but weaken, and he immediately knelt on the ground and begged for mercy.
"Become a general!" Helian Che stopped Cheng Ji in time, as if reminding: "General Cheng, don't forget what is more important now!" ”
Cheng Ji glared at Helian Che with a pair of tiger eyes, and saw that he shook his head lightly, trying to suppress the anger in his heart, and finally gave up.
"Dare to ask my father if there is a clue on that piece of shredded paper?" Helian Che turned to Helian and gave his hand.
Helian Zhu pondered for a moment, and gave a negative answer with a gloomy face, only saying: "The stagnant water soaked and blurred the handwriting, and it was impossible to read. ”
When Helian Che heard this, he inadvertently glanced at Helian's hand where he was hiding the piece of paper, and immediately knew that this old fox had taken the bait.
As far as Helian Note's position is concerned, no matter how this piece of burned paper once fell into He Yun's hands, and how he was brutally killed in the end when he held it in his mouth, these are dead without proof, and it doesn't matter, in short, He Yun desperately protects this piece of paper for only one purpose - that is, to let people know who killed him.
Now although he knows that the murderer is Empress Liang, he can only temporarily knock out his teeth and swallow blood, and he is not in a hurry to take revenge.
"Since there is no way to verify, then wouldn't this matter become a headless case......" Helian Che looked at Helian Note as if he had concerns, and then looked at Cheng Ji who was not good-looking.
He did it on purpose, in order to test the attitude of these two men.
Helian Zhu pondered for a moment, and then immediately ordered the guards to bring the horse, pedaled on the horse, and said to Cheng Ji: "This Taishi is here to find General Cheng to drink and catch up with the old days, since the military camp still has important matters to deal with, then this Taishi will go back first." ”
Just about to step on the horse, he suddenly remembered something, tightened the reins and turned around in a circle: "By the way, this matter will be presented to the emperor, and I also ask General Cheng to clear the suspicion as soon as possible!" ”
Yan Yan took a deep look at Cheng Ji, turned the horse's head, clamped the horse's belly and ran outside the camp.
Cheng Ji's fists were clenched and creaked, and the meaning of Helian Che's words just now was obviously to push He Yun's death on his head.
Both of them have their own thoughts.
Helian Che watched everything coldly, and naturally he didn't miss the resentment and hatred that Cheng Ji endured, and then said: "General Cheng, since the matter is not yet clear, why don't you take He Yun back first, so that you can give General Wu an explanation." ”
Cheng Ji, who stared fiercely at the camp gate, was trapped in the hatred of Helian Zhu and couldn't extricate himself, where could he hear what he said, and waved his hand as an answer.
Helian Che didn't care what his opinion was, and after secretly exchanging glances with Yinchong, he ordered the soldiers he brought: "Take it away." ”
The long night was long, a sudden storm swept through the Western Dynasty, the thunder roared, and the palace maid in light clothes and casual clothes just waited for Han Guifei to sleep, rubbing her neck, and as soon as she came out of the Huaen Palace, she was covered by someone and took her to Shengning Palace.
The frightened palace maid looked around, and was about to speak, when she saw the beautiful woman on the golden chair in the high hall with her eyes closed, her face became more and more pale with fright, and she knelt on the ground tremblingly.
Tang Luo still stood behind Liang Hou expressionlessly, looked at the palace maid trembling from a distance, and said softly: "Queen Mother, people have brought it!" ”
The words settled for a moment, the sky suddenly thunderstormed violently, the candles in the hall swayed, Liang Hou rubbed the jade fingers of his temples, slowly opened his beautiful eyes, looked at the bottom, and said slowly: "You are new to the palace?" ”
The palace maid was at a loss, and nervously peeked at the unattainable beautiful woman on the seat.
Mama Lin suddenly shouted: "Bold, do you dare to reply to the Queen Mother's question?" ”
When the palace maid heard this, the three souls were immediately frightened, and kowtowed again and again: "The slave and maid should die, but I don't know that it is the queen mother, the slave and maid should die!" ”
A trace of impatience crossed the back of the beam, and he looked at Mama Lin out of the corner of his eye.
The other side immediately understood, took three steps and two steps up to grab the palace maid's clothes, and landed two loud slaps on both sides of her cheeks, and solemnly reprimanded: "The queen mother asks and answers, doesn't anyone teach you the rules of this palace?" ”
The girl who first entered the palace was only fifteen or sixteen years old, and she was not well versed in the complicated rules of the palace, she was suddenly beaten, and five bright red fingerprints suddenly floated on her pink cheeks, and she didn't dare to show it with tears of grievance in her black eyes, and she bit her lower lip for a while, and finally buried her head in the ground: "Back to the Queen Mother, the slave maid is a new palace maid who has entered the palace, her name is Caiqin, and she just arrived at Huaen Hall on an errand a few days ago!" ”
Empress Liang was silent, but admired her slender fingers covered with dankou, and gestured to Mama Lin with her eyes for a moment.
Mama Lin is worthy of being the queen mother's usual confidant, such a look already knows what the queen mother means, and glanced at the little eunuch who was accompanying her in the palace: "You two, catch her!" ”
The little eunuch didn't dare to disobey, and stepped forward to clasp the palace maid's arm one left and one right.
Then he took out a small purple bottle from his bosom and took out a pill from it.
"No...... No, ......" The palace maid had already guessed what Mama Lin was going to do next, and shook her head in horror, wanting to retreat but her arms were pressed and she couldn't move, so she could only watch Mama Lin pinch her jaw and put the pill into her mouth.
"Ahem!" The palace maid was forced to swallow the pill, choked and coughed, her eyes were full of tears, and she pleaded with a wail: "The slave really doesn't know what crime she has committed!" Ask the Queen Mother to spare her life! ”
At this time, Liang Hou said lazily: "Don't worry, as long as you are obedient, the mourning family will not kill you at once!" ”
The palace maid is also clever, and when she heard this, she immediately reacted, and said in order to save her life: "But according to the orders of the Queen Mother!" ”
"You are on an errand in the Huaen Palace, and the mourning family wants you to do something for the mourning family, and if you do it well, the mourning family will be rewarded, but if you don't do it well...... Hum! The woman's lips on the high golden chair hooked a cold arc, and her beautiful eyes suddenly shot out a murderous light, and even her voice was more vicious, "The mourning family will send you to see the king of Hades!" ”
