Poisoning doesn't have to be in the kitchen?

Li Qi was stunned for a moment, and then asked, "Have you found anything?" ”

Zhao Jingyan nodded and said: "After I moved to the vicinity of Zhao Mingcheng's house, I carefully observed the surrounding terrain, and now there is a problem, that is, there is a narrow alley adjacent to the kitchen of Zhao Mingcheng's house, and the stove where the medicine is boiled is under the window. ”

Li Qi frowned and said: "If what you said is true, then it is really possible, because Li Qingzhao and Li Yuanxiang had gone out at that time." ”

"Really?"

Li Qi hummed, and then told Zhao Jingyan Li Qingzhao's confession.

Zhao Jingyan pondered for a moment and said: "Let's assume that this murderer really exists, then Zhang Hao is too coincidental, if it is not a coincidence, then this Zhang Hao is also not a small suspect." ”

"Probably more than that." Li Qi shook his head.

Zhao Jingyan said: "What do you mean? ”

Li Qi said: "According to Li Qingzhao's words, she was guided by a woodcutter to find the eggplant flower, but unfortunately she didn't see the woodcutter's face at that time, I also sent someone to investigate, but Wuzi did not have the whereabouts of the woodcutter, so I went to the col with Li Qingzhao today with the strange Shi Niang to the col with the mountain eggplant flower that Li Qingzhao said, where I have an important information, that is, someone has planted the eggplant flower there recently." ”

Zhao Jingyan looked shocked and said, "Is this true? ”

Li Qi shrugged and said, "I don't have this ability, but blame Shi Niang according to the soil quality there." I'm sure someone must have planted a mountain eggplant there in the near future, but it's been a long time. Couldn't get more information. ”

Zhao Jingyan said thoughtfully: "In this way, this matter is becoming more and more like a conspiracy. ”

Li Qi nodded and said: "Li Qingzhao is not familiar with the terrain of Hangzhou, if she wants to go to find the eggplant flower, it must be a headless fly, she went to that area, the original intention is just to try her luck, if the woodcutter is premeditated, then it can explain a problem." ”

Zhao Jingyan said: "The murderer knew in advance that Li Qingzhao would go there that day. ”

Li Qi said: "Not bad. In advance, Li Qingzhao only sued two people, one was Li Yuanxiang and the other was Liu Qin. ”

Zhao Jingyan said: "Then these two people also have a lot of suspicions. ”

Li Qi said: "I know Li Yuanxiang, she has always been Li Qingzhao's personal maid, and she also stayed in Kaifeng with Li Qingzhao at the beginning, I think she is not very likely, the key is this Liu Qin." ”

Zhao Jingyan said: "I have also investigated this Liu Qin. She was Zhao Mingcheng's concubine when he was in Laizhou, and since then, she has been by Zhao Mingcheng's side. ”

Li Qi said: "But Liu Qin and Zhang Hao don't seem to have the motive to murder Zhao Mingcheng, I don't know much about Liu Qin, and I still have to investigate." But Zhang Hao's words, it is said that she is a very kind person, willing to help others, and her neighbors have received a lot of favors from her, and Zhao Mingcheng has just arrived in Hangzhou. The two had never crossed paths before, and there was no conflict. If it is said that it is for money and is bought, it doesn't make sense, because she is now alone, and she is so old, even if she is given more money, what can she do, just ask her what reason she has to poison Zhao Mingcheng. ”

Zhao Jingyan shook her head and said, "I can't say that, Zhang Hao's husband and son died unnaturally." ”

Li Qi said: "I also know this, it is said that he died because of the sinking of the ship, but few people know what is going on, and Zhang Hao rarely mentions it to others, I have already called someone to investigate this matter." Another point, if there is a murderer on the premise of saving zài, then these two can only be said to be accomplices at most, because during the period when Li Qingzhao was boiling medicine, Liu Qin had been resting in bed, and Zhang Hao had never entered the kitchen, so the person who poisoned him must be someone else. ”

Zhao Jingyan frowned, groaned for a while, and said: "If we can determine that these two people must be accomplices, we can find out the person who poisoned them, but the question is, what is the purpose of the two of them to harm Zhao Mingcheng, and what is the connection between Zhang Hao and Zhao Mingcheng." ”

Li Qi said: "This is also what I am very curious about, is there something we are missing?" ”

"You mean the Lei family?"

Li Qi said: "The whole thing revolves around a few of them, and we only have these clues, whether it is or not, we can only start from them." ”

Zhao Jingyan said: "In order to test Lei Laoshi, I once asked people to go to the Lei family pharmacy, but the information I got is that this Lei is honest as the outside world says, the person is as his name suggests, very honest, and Zhao Mingcheng has no deep hatred with him, I really can't think of any reason for him to poison Zhao Mingcheng." ”

Li Qi said: "What about his son-in-law?" ”

"Did you notice this guy too?"

"There are only a few people involved in this case, and it's hard for anyone not to pay attention to them."

Zhao Jingyan said: "I have also inquired about this person, on the surface, there is no doubt, he and Zhao Mingcheng also have no intersection, and according to some people in Xicheng, Lei Ming loves his wife very much, every time he goes out and comes back, he is almost at home with his wife, and he is bold, and he is about to say that he is a good man." ”

"But how can there be a cat in this world that doesn't steal, the better this thunder is, the more suspicious it is, and he is also a man with a story."

"That's what I thought too."

Li Qi said: "Anyway, we have enough reason to investigate. ”

Zhao Jingyan said: "How are you going to check?" ”

Li Qi thought for a moment and said: "It seems that at present, I can only start with the stories behind a few of them, I hope to get some clues, I will go to Li Qingzhao tomorrow to see if I can learn more information about Liu Qin." Oh, you're going to stay here tonight. ”

Zhao Jingyan nodded, suddenly remembered something, and said, "Oh, you have to return a hundred yuan on the counter to me tomorrow." ”

Li Qi was stunned and said, "A hundred? When do I owe you a hundred times? ”

Zhao Jingyan said: "I bought the mansion all to help you investigate the case." I can't get this money out of my turn. ”

Sweat! Do you need to be so careful? Li Qi said: "But you said earlier that this is not to help me." ”

Zhao Jingyan was too lazy to talk nonsense, and said, "You just say that you can't pay it back." ”

"You're threatening me!"

"All I know. If you were me, you would do the same. ”

This girl is so abominable that when she knew that I had something to ask of her now, she opened her mouth. Li Qi said depressedly: "Just that small mansion, can you still use a hundred times?" ”

Zhao Jingyan snorted: "Do you think that today's Hangzhou is still the Hangzhou of a few years ago, to give you such a get, the land price in Hangzhou City is very expensive now, if it weren't for the death of someone there just now." And the one surnamed Jia was in a hurry to get rid of it, and he couldn't buy it for a hundred times. ”

"Really?"

"If you don't believe me, I can show you the contract."

"Forget it, I believe you, a hundred is a hundred, but this house."

"It's my reward."

"Rely on it!"

．

The next day, the sky was still bright. Li Qi came to the courtyard opposite, and wanted to ask Zhao Jingyan if he wanted to go with him to see Li Qingzhao, who knew that the courtyard was already empty, and the Luo skirt he ordered someone to give to Zhao Jingyan last night was now neatly folded and placed on the table.

"Even if you don't want to go. You don't have to say goodbye. ”

Li Qi shook his head helplessly and called the drunkard out.

After walking for more than half an hour, I came to the water pavilion where Li Qingzhao was detained, and this time it was more lively than the first time. Because Mrs. Qin and Master Li were there, but the three of them were not chatting. It's not about fun, it's about helping Zhao Mingcheng to finish the golden stone record.

"Huh? What are you doing here? ”

For Li Qi's sudden arrival, the three girls were stunned.

Li Qi nodded, and said straight to the point: "Madam, senior girl, you go out first, I have something to ask Sister Qingzhao, this is a business matter, and it can't be accommodated." ”

Mrs. Qin just wanted to ask, but she didn't know that she had any words, so she was blocked back by Li Qi, and she was so depressed.

Li Qingzhao put down his pen and said to Wang and Li Ernu: "Two sisters, you should go and rest for a while." ”

"Yes."

Mrs. Qin and Master Li glanced at Li Qi worriedly, and then went out.

"You may be seated."

Li Qi sat down and said straight to the point: "Sister Qingzhao, I came today to ask you about Liu Qin. ”

Li Qingzhao was surprised: "This-what does this have to do with Liu Qin?" ”

Li Qi smiled: "I'm just asking as usual." ”

Li Qingzhao looked at Li Qi suspiciously, and said: "Liu Qin used to be a courtesan, and later when my husband was the prefect of Laizhou, he accepted her as a concubine, and she has always been very good with my husband. ”

Li Qi said: "But I heard that Zhao Mingcheng has never taken a concubine for more than ten years after you got married, why did you take Liu Qin as a concubine as soon as you arrived in Laizhou?" ”

Li Qingzhao's eyes became a little dim and he was silent.

Li Qi said: "Sister Qingzhao, I don't mean anything else when I say this, I just want to know more information related to the case." ”

"I know." Li Qingzhao nodded and said, "This-this is because I didn't give birth to a son and a half daughter for the Zhao family." ”

And so it was. Li Qi sighed secretly and said, "But Sister Qingzhao, Zhao Mingcheng accepts a concubine, you must be very unhappy." ”

Li Qingzhao nodded.

Li Qi said: "Then do you have any contradictions with Liu Qinsheng for this?" ”

Li Qingzhao shook his head and said: "I am not angry, I am ashamed of my husband, my husband wants to have children, this is normal, I-although I am not happy, but I can also understand him, so I have never felt sorry for Liu Qin and them." ”

At present, medicine is not as good as the descendants, and it is a patriarchal society, so if there are no heirs, the woman is generally blamed, unless the man is a eunuch, he will never blame the man.

In these years, women who can't give birth to children, they can even be said to be a class of crippled people, they have to go through a lot of pressure, in short, it's not a good time.

Zhao Mingcheng is still good, and he didn't blame Li Qingzhao for his words, but you said that he didn't mind at all in his heart, it was impossible, and how could there be a cat in this world that didn't steal fish, Zhao Mingcheng was middle-aged and took a concubine, which also explained very well what the seven-year itch is, but judging from the facts. It should be that Zhao Mingcheng did not give birth, because Liu Qin and the others have been by Zhao Mingcheng's side for so long. There was no movement in the stomach at all.

Li Qi said: "Then how does Zhao Mingcheng treat Liu Qin?" ”

"My husband loves her very much."

What Li Qingzhao said was very simple, she didn't seem to want to say too much about this, it is conceivable that after ten years in Qingzhou, there have been cracks in her relationship with Zhao Mingcheng, coupled with Zhao Mingcheng's escape three times and twice, which also made the relationship between their husband and wife fall to the freezing point, but this is for Li Qingzhao. This is not good news, after all, it gives her an extra motivation to commit the crime.

Li Qi knew that Li Qingzhao didn't want to say more, but he could only ask stubbornly, "I remember that when Zhao Mingcheng went south, he couldn't bring too many people with him, and he wanted to take you with him at first, but you temporarily regretted it." So when did this Liu Qin come to Hangzhou? ”

You must know that Zhao Ji wanted to run away at that time, and he was quick to pay attention to, he didn't even take the queen away, how could he allow others to bring too many people, even if Bai Shizhong and Cai Jing took two or three close relatives to follow Zhao Ji south, but they had power in hand. Or arrange for someone to secretly move their relatives to a safe place.

Li Qingzhao said: "Because the Emperor Taishang told him not to let too many people know about this matter, the husband did not plan to tell Liu Qin and them about this at that time, but when the boat was on the boat that night, Liu Qin suddenly chased after him. It just so happened that I wasn't going to leave at that time, so Liu Qin went south with my husband instead of me. ”

In the Song Dynasty. Concubines are actually similar to maids, they can be bought and sold as goods, this disaster is coming, Zhao Mingcheng naturally doesn't care about them, if they can leave some money for them, it is already benevolent and righteous, I believe that most people will not even keep money.

Li Qi said: "Then who told Liu Qin about this?" ”

Li Qingzhao shook his head and said, "I don't know either, where would I think about the situation at that time." ”

Li Qi said: "What about Zhao Mingcheng's other concubines?" ”

Li Qingzhao said: "My husband has a total of three concubines, in addition to Liu Qin, there are two who have been staying in Kaifeng with me, and later I asked them to come to Hangzhou with me to reunite with my husband, but they are unwilling." ”

Li Qi said: "Why? ”

Li Qingzhao said: "Because both of them feel that since their husbands have abandoned them at the beginning, they have no obligation to share the hardships with their husbands." ”

This is actually not difficult to understand, because Zhao Mingcheng is Zhao Huan's person, after Zhao Kai ascended the throne, everyone who did not break his brain knew that it was impossible for Zhao Mingcheng to turn over, and he was already very lucky if he was not implicated.

Li Qi squinted slightly, thinking to himself, although Liu Qin was the only one who followed Zhao Mingcheng south, but it was all because Sister Qingzhao temporarily withdrew, she had a chance to make up for it, not Zhao Mingcheng took the initiative to ask to take her away, if she hated Zhao Mingcheng in her heart, it was not completely impossible, and from the fact that she was able to show that Zhao Mingcheng was leaving, it can be seen that this person is very scheming.

Li Qingzhao saw that Li Qi was silent, and said worriedly: "Li Qi, is there something wrong with Liu Qin?" ”

Li Qi shook his head and said, "No, I said it, I just came to inquire on a routine basis." Saying that, she smiled bitterly again and said, "Sister Qingzhao, you are too busy to take care of yourself now, and you are still worried about what others do, take care of yourself." ”

Li Qingzhao just smiled lightly and didn't answer, but his smile was a little desolate

．

．

Li Qi chatted casually with Li Qingzhao for a few more words, and then walked out of the room, and then went to the back room. When Mrs. Qin saw Li Qi coming, she hurriedly greeted her and said, "Li Qi, can you find evidence to overturn the case for your sister?" ”

Li Qi said very bluntly: "Madam, do you think that with your character, I will tell you about this?" Miss Shishi, don't look at me like that, because Madame is here, I can't sue you. ”

Mrs. Qin promised: "I will never talk nonsense. ”

"But you're going to be worried, I used to be in a thatched house, and you had to tell me eighteen times."

Master Li was surprised: "There is such a thing? ”

"Isn't it?"

Mrs. Qin stomped her feet and said hurriedly: "Master, don't listen to his nonsense. ”

Li Qi smiled and said, "Just let me talk nonsense." But ma'am, there is something you have forgotten to do. ”

Mrs. Qin was stunned and said, "What's the matter?" ”

Li Qi said: "You and Zhao Mingcheng have known each other for a long time, but you have been in Hangzhou for a few days, and it seems that you haven't visited him yet, so you are too rude." ”

Mrs. Qin said: "I wanted to go to worship Zhao Xiaoxianggong, but you didn't say that if I decided without permission, if I ruined your business, you would have to blame me again." ”

"Excuses! Absolute excuses! Are you worried that I blame you? Don't you know that I already have a lot of grudges against you? ”

"You."

"Alright, alright, let's get down to business." Li Qi saw that Mrs. Qin was about to explode, so he hurriedly stopped, and said seriously: "I am a person who knows how to be polite, you go to worship Zhao Mingcheng, this is a matter of course, how can I blame you, you will go tomorrow." In fact, I have worked with Zhao Mingcheng, and it stands to reason that I should also go, but unfortunately I am a little inconvenient for the time being, so let's send Liu Yunxi as my representative and go for me. ”

Master Li smiled: "It seems that it is not just a matter of worship. ”

"It's not as complicated as you think."

．

．

On the second day, Mrs. Qin, Master Li, and Liu Yunxi went to worship Zhao Mingcheng together.

And Li Qi stayed in the Drunken Immortal Villa and waited for the news, but he didn't wait for Mrs. Qin and them, but waited for Nanbo Tu to come.

Li Qi came to the library below and asked Nan Botu, "Is there anything that is present?" ”

Nan Bo Tu said: "My lord, the villain has found out how Zhang Hao's husband and son died?" ”

Li Qi said: "Oh? Say it. ”

Nan Bo Tu said: "I don't know if you still remember, the sensational shipwreck back then?" ”

Li Qi thought for a moment, shook his head and said, "Which time?" ”

Don't know this? Nanbo Tu muttered and explained: "At that time, the people from the Suzhou Yingfeng Bureau appeared a towering tree in Hangzhou and prepared to transport the tree to Kaifeng, but the tree was too big to be transported to Kaifeng from 6 places. Zhu Mian, who was in charge of the Suzhou Yingfeng Bureau at that time, ignored the opposition of many people and forcibly ordered people to put this towering tree on a large ship, ready to transport it to Bianliang by water, but before he could reach the halfway point, the ship sank, and hundreds of people on board did not survive. ”

"I remember, there was such a thing." Li Qi nodded, and suddenly said, "Could it be that Zhang Hao's husband and son both died in this incident." ”

Nan Botu nodded and said: "It turns out that this Zhang Hao's husband was originally a craftsman, when the imperial court was searching for strange flowers and stones in Jiangnan, Zhang Hao's husband and her two sons were also recruited by the imperial court to carry stones for the emperor, unfortunately, this time the three fathers and sons were among them." ”
