Chapter 218: A New Clue
Yan Zixi supported her forehead with her hands, trying to remember what happened last night, and suddenly her face turned red, and even her breathing became short.
Especially at this moment, the soreness in his waist seemed to remind Yan Zixi of how much affection he and Xiao Jingcong had last night......
"Oops, I'm ashamed......"
Yan Zixi touched her hot pretty face, and she didn't know what to say.
Fortunately, Xiao Jingcong was still asleep on the table, and he didn't see his face now, otherwise he would definitely be laughed at by Xiao Jingcong!
Xiao Jingcong seemed to sense something and woke up from her sleep.
Yan Zixi saw that Xiao Jingcong woke up, hurriedly closed her eyes, and continued to pretend to be asleep.
He raised his head, turned his head to look at Yan Zixi, and saw that she was still sleeping, so he got up and walked over, and gently covered Yan Zixi with the blanket on his body.
Yan Zixi opened her eyes and called softly, "Jingcong, are you awake?" ”
"Well, Xi'er, did you sleep well last night?" Xiao Jingcong squinted and smiled.
"Hmph, are you embarrassed to say? It broke me last night! Yan Zixi glanced at Xiao Jingcong and complained.
"Is there one?" When Xiao Jingcong heard this, the corners of his mouth rose, and he gently took Yan Zixi into his arms.
The distance between the two was very close, and Yan Zixi could clearly feel the bursts of heat spit out by Xiao Jingcong, which suddenly made Yan Zixi a little confused.
"Jing Cong...... You...... What do you want to do......" Yan Zixi subconsciously hid behind, she tossed for the night last night, Yan Zixi didn't dare to come again.
Xiao Jingcong gently scraped the bridge of Yan Zixi's nose, "What else can you do as a husband?" Naturally, she is a lady who serves me well. Saying that, Xiao Jingcong leaned his face over......
However, he was pushed away by Yan Zixi, Yan Zixi cried and begged Xiao Jingcong for mercy, "Jingcong, you just spare me, I can't come......"
Yan Zixi now feels more and more that she is a little powerless. It doesn't make sense, shouldn't it be like this?
Is it really going to marry a concubine for Xiao Jingcong in the future?
No, no, no, you can't be cheap Xiao Jingcong......
Just when Yan Zixi was secretly thinking in her heart, Xiao Jingcong had already gotten up and left.
Yan Zixi saw that Xiao Jingcong was going out, so she hurriedly got up and stopped him: "Jingcong, are you leaving?" ”
Xiao Jingcong stopped, "Well, there are only two deadlines set by the emperor, so you have to hurry up for your husband." ”
"Jingcong, you just let me accompany you to investigate the case, maybe I can mention it on the side?" Yan Zixi chased after her, with an anxious look on her face, and it could be seen that Yan Zixi really wanted to help Xiao Jingcong share her worries.
Xiao Jingcong lowered her head and hesitated for a while, then finally grinned and responded, "Okay, since Xi'er has this idea, then I will make an exception for my husband to let you come with me today." ”
"Really? Jingcong, great! ”
Yan Zixi heard Xiao Jingcong agree, danced excitedly, shouted happily, and hugged Xiao Jingcong's waist directly with both hands, with a happy look on her face.
……
After Yan Zixi freshened up and dressed up, after eating breakfast, she followed Xiao Jingcong into the carriage.
In the carriage, Yan Zixi saw Xiao Jingcong's sad appearance, and hurriedly relieved herself, "Jingcong, don't worry too much, isn't there still two days left?" I believe that Huang Tian lives up to his wishes, and we will definitely be able to find out the real culprit who poisoned Concubine Shuniang! ”
"Well, I know, I'm not worried. The husband was just thinking about the assassins who had infiltrated the palace yesterday and assassinated. ”
"Assassin ......" Yan Zixi heard Xiao Jingcong talk about it, and asked curiously: "What, has the assassin who assassinated on the Flower Dynasty Festival yesterday been caught?" ”
Xiao Jingcong nodded, "I caught it, but I ...... it."
"Just what? Jingcong, don't you sell me? Yan Zixi shook Xiao Jingcong's arm and urged, "Just what?" ”
“…… It's just that the two assassins who were caught bit their tongues killed themselves on the spot before they could ask what the result was......" Xiao Jingcong sighed and replied. Everyone
"What, I bit my tongue and killed myself...... That assassin is really backbone......" Yan Zixi thought about it and said in a strange way.
Not to mention anything else, he committed suicide after a mistake, such an assassin must not be simple, he must have received some special training.
"Didn't the Queen Mother do anything else?" Yan Zixi learned from Xiao Jingcong's mouth that the assassin he assassinated yesterday had died, and asked curiously.
Xiao Jingcong raised her eyebrows and replied: "The people in the palace have sent news that the queen mother continues to let the second prince Xiao Yuxian pursue it, and she will definitely find out about this matter." But as for whether it can really be found out, it's hard to say......"
Yan Zixi listened to Xiao Jingcong's meaningful words, and looked sideways slightly, "Jingcong, do you mean that this matter has something to do with the queen's mother?" ”
"It's hard to say, there is no evidence now, the one who really has the first-hand information should be the second prince Xiao Yuxian, who reported the news that the queen said that the assassin was dead."
"So, the second prince is the biggest suspect? If he is the mastermind behind the scenes, when he sees that the matter is exposed, he kills people and kills people, and it is easy to talk about the past...... Besides......" Yan Zixi suddenly wanted to fight something, and an epiphany suddenly occurred in her mind, "Besides...... Yesterday, the second prince happened to be on duty in the palace to protect him, and those assassins had to pass his pass if they wanted to sneak into the imperial garden to assassinate, no wonder those assassins could easily avoid their eyes and ears and blend into the imperial garden......"
Xiao Jingcong heard Yan Zixi's analysis and nodded appreciatively, "Xi'er, your analysis is very reasonable, but you have ignored a key piece of information. ”
"Key information, what information?" Yan Zixi frowned, her face puzzled, she didn't know what Xiao Jingcong was referring to.
Xiao Jingcong smiled slightly and curled her lips, "That is, yesterday you said that the target of the assassin was the queen mother. But the queen mother is the biological mother of the second prince, the second prince and the queen mother have always been harmonious, and the two do not have any festivals, how could the second prince do such a rebellious thing? ”
"yes, I didn't think of that!" Yan Zixi patted her head and scolded herself for being confused, "Oops, I'm so stupid that I even ignored such a critical piece of information...... It seems that I am really not suitable for investigating any case......"
In vain, Yan Zixi has watched so many detective suspense TV series before, why is it useless to be here now?
Xiao Jingcong saw that Yan Zixi was annoyed there, and hurriedly smiled and comforted: "Xi'er, no one can think about it thoroughly, not even a husband." My husband just helped you mention it, but you're not stupid at all. ”
"Hey, then Jingcong, tell me, could it be that the real target of the assassin is not the queen mother?" Yan Zixi thought of another possibility.
Xiao Jingcong lowered his head and pondered for a while, then replied: "Well, the situation you said is also possible, after all, I was not at the scene yesterday, I don't know what the real intention of the assassin was at that time, Xi'er, did you really see it clearly?" ”
Yan Zixi tried hard to recall, and then shook her head, "I can't remember...... It was so chaotic and unpredictable that I didn't even have time to think about it, and I didn't even see the Assassins......"
"I see...... Xiao Jingcong thought thoughtfully, not knowing what he was thinking.
"Jingcong, do you have a clue?" Yan Zixi saw Xiao Jingcong's thoughtful look, and couldn't help but ask again.
Xiao Jingcong chuckled lightly, and said lightly: "No, but this matter will definitely not end like this." I believe that if the mastermind behind the scenes is not found out, he will definitely be trying to find a way to do it. Only if you make a move, you will be exposed, and when that time comes, you will naturally be able to know who did it. ”
Xiao Jingcong is not worried about this, on the contrary, he is worried about where the murderer who poisoned Concubine Shuniang is.
Thinking of this, Xiao Jingcong reminded again: "Xi'er, let's think about the poisoning case of Concubine Shuniang first, this case is closely related to us, and we haven't cleared the suspicion yet." ”
"Yes, yes, yes!"
Hearing Xiao Jingcong's reminder, Yan Zixi nodded again and again: "This case is important!" Jingcong, tell me first, what have you discovered these days? In this way, I can also help you analyze and analyze. ”
"It's okay......" Xiao Jingcong thought about it and felt that what Yan Zixi said was reasonable, so she told Yan Zixi all the clues that she had checked these days.
Although Xiao Jingcong has not yet found out who is the real culprit behind the scenes, this investigation for four or five days has not been completely fruitless.
Xiao Jingcong checked the wine jug at that time and found that the wine jug was hidden in the mystery.
It turned out that the wine jug was a sub-mother pot, containing two galls, one bold and a small gall, usually pouring wine is to use the boldness of the mother pot, and the poison is contained in the small gall of the sub-pot.
Hearing this, Yan Zixi hid her face and sighed, hating that she was born in this era, and there was no fingerprint verification technology yet, otherwise she would directly check the fingerprints on the wine jug, and maybe you could find the murderer who poisoned her.
Xiao Jingcong continued to speak, because he found that the wine jug was strange, Xiao Jingcong wanted to start with this wine jug and investigate the people who had come into contact with the wine jug at that time.
But unfortunately, just like those missing eunuchs, the people who came into contact with this flask could not find any whereabouts at all, so the clues were completely broken.
"Jingcong, the line of the wine pot can't go through, can we think of taking other roads?" After Yan Zixi listened, she proposed to Xiao Jingcong with a straight face.
"Go the other way? Xi'er, do you have any way to say that you are here to listen to your husband? When Xiao Jingcong saw Yan Zixi say this, she asked curiously.
"Actually, it's not a good way, it's just a little idea of mine......"
