Chapter Fifty-Four: Suspicion of Presiding
Xia Qian also had a general understanding, so he asked one more question: "May I ask what is the matter with King Yi coming to Huguo Temple today?" Still with the top card of the Red Man Square? After speaking, he looked at the ink dye.
"Let me tell you, Lord Xia, today I and King Yi just got up early and were woken up by a subordinate, saying that it was a little monk of Huguo Temple looking for King Yi, I asked King Yi to get dressed and went, and after a while King Yi came back and felt very happy, King Yi said that after breakfast to go to Huguo Temple to get books, this is not after eating just arrived at the gate of the temple, I saw the host waiting at the door, the host said that the Queen Mother was in the temple King Yi should go to ask for peace first, we followed the host to come here, and the things behind Lord Xia are clear." Mo Yan glanced at the corpse in the courtyard and pretended to be very scared and hid in Mo Yanyu's arms, Mo Yanyu protected her from Xia Qian's expression.
"That's the general situation, Lord Xia can ask the host and the monks who have seen us in the temple." Mo Yanyu stroked the back of the ink stain with one hand.
"Lord Xia, just as Miss Qingyan said, but everything was normal when I came to greet the Queen Mother last night." The host said with a reminiscing look.
"When did the host come to greet the Queen Mother last night?" Xia Qian asked.
"About a moment in the morning, because our temple has an evening class, and the end is the end of the unitary hour, I came after watching all the apprentices finish, and it takes some distance from the main hall to here." The host is reminiscing again, but this time he was seen by Mo Ran that the host's eyes were looking at Xia Gan's upper right, and after finishing speaking, he tried to stare at Xia Gan.
"Presiding, was there anything unusual about the Queen Mother when you came?" Xia Qian asked.
The host thought for a while and then shook his head, the corners of Mo Ran's mouth smiled, but no one noticed, and the host continued: "When I came to ask for peace yesterday, the Queen Mother didn't seem to be abnormal, she was drinking tea at night, and I also reminded the Queen Mother to drink less tea at night, so as not to be unable to sleep, and nothing else." After the host finished speaking, the hanging hand seemed to shake a few times, and it was not very obvious, but Mo Dye still saw it.
Then a man dressed in monk's clothes ran over: "Presiding, someone is looking for someone in the main hall." Mo Ran paid close attention to the person who ran over, he walked without sound, and he ran faster than ordinary monks, and the muscles in his arms were very bulging, even if the monks in the temple practiced martial arts, they couldn't reach this muscle if they were vegetarian for many years.
"Lord Xia, King Yi, I'll go to the main hall to deal with things first." After speaking, the host bowed and left.
"Host, you have something to do." Xia Qian waved his hand.
"King Yi, what do you think? Recently, these cases have no clue at all, no evidence at all, and this is another case with almost no evidence, a headache. Xia Qian complained.
"This case is not without evidence, Lord Xia, you can ask people to check whether there are any such things as Qiongchuan sold in the major pharmacies in the capital, or check if there are any large quantities of blood crow recently purchased? This poison should have blood in it, and the smell is very strong. ”
As soon as Mo Ran heard this, he tugged Mo Yanyu's sleeve and motioned him to stop talking, Mo Yanyu immediately understood, and said: "I'll help here, let's look at Lord Xia, I'll go to the host to get the book, and then ......" Mo Yanyu ran away with Mo Yanyu, and there was laughter.
Xia Qian shook his head helplessly, and immediately ordered to go down.
As soon as he ran out of the yard, Mo Ran grabbed Mo Yanyu and said in Mo Yanyu's ear: "Be careful to host." ”
Mo Yanyu looked at Mo Yan Yu incomprehensibly, Mo Yan Yu clenched Mo Yan Yu's hand, and whispered: "I'll talk about the details when I go back, don't say anything when I see the host later, remember?" Mo Ran glared at Mo Yanyu, and Mo Yanyu nodded.
As soon as the two entered the main hall, the host walked up: "This is the book that King Yi is looking for, King Yi should take it well." After speaking, he slapped Mo Yanyu's hand twice to receive the book.
Mo Yanyu took the book and arched his hand and said, "Thank you, the host master." ”
Mo Ran also smiled and said, "Thank you for hosting the master, for being so attentive to King Yi." This laugh made the host suddenly a little scared, but the surface was not shocked.
Mo Yanyu pulled Mo Dye out of the main hall, Mo Yan Yu thought that since he came to Huguo Temple, he thought about taking Mo Dye to meet the master, and walked to the temple gate and lay on the ink dye ear: "Do you want to meet the master I worshipped some time ago?" She's in the back mountain. ”
Mo Ran didn't hear it, now Dali Temple is investigating the case If you see us go to the back mountain, the suspicion will be even greater, Mo Ran pulled down Mo Yanyu's hand, shook his head with a smile and said: "Your Highness, let's go back to the house, I'm a little tired." ”
Mo Yanyu knew what the ink dye meant, so he nodded and said, "Okay, whatever you say is what you say, let's go." He pulled the ink dye and walked to the sedan chair, opened the sedan curtain and said, "Please get on the sedan chair." Then he smiled at the ink.
Mo Ran followed Mo Yanyu into the sedan chair, and both of them found that there were people watching inside the temple gate, and Mo Yanyu also entered the sedan chair and said loudly: "Let's go, go home." After hearing this, the servant lifted the sedan chair and went down the mountain.
"I understand what you just said, did you notice something strange about the host? Or have you noticed something strange about the temple? Mo Yanyu sat down and leaned on the ink dye ear and asked.
"Let's go back to the house and discuss this matter again, I just need the prince to confirm that the subordinate I just said is dead, if I guessed correctly, it should be the person wearing monk's clothes who ran over to call the host just now, I should be right, there is a drop of blood on the sleeve of that person's sleeve, and it hasn't dried yet." Ink Ran recalled.
"It's still dye's eyesight, and I've seen such hidden things, so let's go back to the house." Mo Yanyu said and took the ink dye into his arms.
As soon as he arrived at the house, Tingye followed and said, "Lord, there is something to report." ”
Mo Yanyu took me and Ting Ye into the secret room.
"What's the matter?" Mo Yanyu asked.
"Lord Wang, the subordinate Liu Fu is dead, five miles south of the city, according to the prince's house there are still three miles, when the subordinates arrived, someone had already buried half of him, it should be killed with a knife, there is no trace of struggle." Thunder Night told what she saw.
"It seems that Dye'er is right, the person is dead, I trusted the host too much before, mainly because of the relationship between the mother concubine, it seems that this time it was the host's hand, Dye'er, tell me how you found out?" Mo Yanyu turned around and asked.
Mo Ran sat on the chair, poured a glass of water and took a sip: "First of all, His Royal Highness didn't introduce me when he just entered the temple, but said Ran'er, how did the host know that I was Qingyan from the Red Man Fang, this was just what I suspected at the beginning." ”
Mo Yanyu asked incomprehensibly: "This shouldn't be nothing."
Mo Ran shook his head, sat down on the chair and continued: "Don't interrupt me, I continued, thinking of this, I began to recall the tone and actions of the host from beginning to end, and found that his hand had a little bit of burning marks, now I think that it should be when he went to the medicine last night when the Queen Mother resisted to get his hand, I thought that Shengchuan Wu and Shengcao Wu were ground into powder to have this effect, but I didn't expect it to be Qiongchuan."
After hearing this, Ting Ye asked, "This doesn't prove that she is the queen mother who presided over the death, right?"
Mo Ran nodded and said, "Indeed, it can only prove that the host made a similar poison, and it can't be said that he killed the Queen Mother, but have you found out the inner ghost in your plan Tianyu Gate?" In addition to the insiders' knowledge, there should be only one person left, and there is a poison like Qiongchuan It is very certain that Dongyue has no growth environment, although Dongyue is humid all year round, but the big trees can't grow, so it is obvious that this Huguo Temple has a connection with Nanzhu.
After the analysis of ink dyeing, Mo Yanyu suddenly found that he didn't know anything about the host for so many years, if it wasn't for the concubine who entrusted herself to him, maybe there would be no relationship between them at all, thinking of this, Mo Yanyu also sat down and said: "Maybe it's really the host, the host and my mother have an unknown past."
As soon as Mo Ran heard it, he understood what this so-called past was, so he continued: "I have to say one more thing, although a man who ran in later, although he was wearing monk's clothes, but what he couldn't stop was a trace of light work and eating meat for many years, how could there be meat to eat in the temple, then of course it was not a person in the temple, I deduced that the man was the one who killed Liu Fu." After finishing speaking, Mo Dye drank all the water in the cup.
"I didn't expect the ink-dyed girl to remember it so clearly when she saw it once, and her subordinates admired it." Thunder Night arched his hand.
"Not only do you admire, but this king also admires, maybe this king was indeed deceived before, but the matter of the mole in the thundering night still has to be investigated, because I plan to do it in the past few days, why does the host just know, and what does it have to do with this matter." Mo Yanyu said and filled the ink with tea, and poured himself a cup.
"Yes, Lord Wang, my subordinates will do it now." The thunder night disappeared in a flash.
"Tingye is called by you every day, and it is so uncomfortable." Mo Ran put his hands on the table and held his chin to look at Mo Yanyu.
"He has made it clear to him since the day he told me, he said that he was willing, and it has been more than ten years since he said it, he was brought by the master, and let him be my personal guard, because the master trusts him, so I also trust him." Mo Yanyu said and recalled the first year of seeing the ethereal people.
That year was the third time I met, and when the master brought a boy who was about the same height as himself, he said to Mo Yanyu, "He will follow you in the future and be your bodyguard."
Thinking of this, Mo Yanyu laughed: "Tingye was stupid back then, but he was very obedient, he didn't do anything out of the ordinary for so many years, I was afraid that he would be misled by Bai Wei, and now I will report that Bai Wei is related to the disappearance of the child." After Mo Yanyu finished drinking the cup of water, when he poured the ink dye, the ink dye blocked the cup, and Mo Yanyu immediately understood, so he put down the teapot.
"That's it? I don't think she can become a big deal, there must be someone behind her. By the way, shouldn't you go to the palace to face the saint in this matter? Ink Ran asked.
"Yes, I'm going to enter the palace, are you with me?" Mo Yanyu pulled the ink dye and stood up.
Mo Ran shook his head: "I won't go, Your Highness, you can go by yourself, it's the Queen Mother who is dead, and it's not anyone else, it's not appropriate for me to go." ”
