Chapter 421: The Bride Is Dead

Mrs. Yin was sitting inside, and the door was blocked by many people, so from her point of view, she couldn't see the little episode that happened just now.

Seeing Yin Zike leading Jiang Qinglan in, she sat on the main seat with a happy face.

Giving the ceremonial officer a look, the ceremonial officer cleared his throat and began to shout: "Worship heaven and earth!" ”

With the support of the maid, Jiang Qinglan turned around.

Yin Zike also turned around in a wheelchair, and the two of them bowed to the outside world in unison.

"Second worship high hall!"

With the second shout from the ceremonial officer, they saluted Mrs. Yin again.

Everyone couldn't see Jiang Qinglan's expression, but they could see Yin Zike's emotions clearly.

I can't say I'm happy, but I'm not dissatisfied, the whole person is light, and there is an extra red silk in my hand, I just feel that it looks more like a puppet manipulated.

The ceremonial officer took a deep breath, as if using all his strength, and pulled his throat: "Husband and wife worship each other!" ”

As if all the blood had been drained in the blink of an eye, Yin Zike's face turned pale in an instant, and he looked up in the direction where Gu Jinli was sitting.

Gu Jinli was stunned by the pain in his eyes, and opened her mouth, feeling like she couldn't speak.

While Yin Zike was looking at Gu Jinli, Qi Hao, Chen Zexuan, and the Eighth Prince, the three people who were sitting at the same table and had been watching Yin Zike's salute, naturally noticed the unusualness flowing from Yin Zike's eyes, and they had a rare unanimous thought in their minds.

Could it be that Yin Zike also has the same thoughts about Gu Jinli?

If this is really the case, it can only mean that Gu Jinli's identity as a woman has been exposed.

If Yin Zike just recognized Gu Jinli as a woman dressed as a man, it would be fine, after all, Gu Jinli is now the appearance of "Lin Sheng".

But once he knew that "Lin Sheng" was Gu Jinli, the Gu side concubine who jumped off the cliff two years ago, then......

The three men had their own thoughts, and their faces were not very good-looking.

Looking at Yin Zike's complicated eyes looking at Gu Jinli, the pain and suffering revealed, isn't this a true portrayal of several of them?

Men, like women, have natural instincts.

With a man's intuition, they couldn't help but believe that Yin Zike didn't have that kind of affection for Gu Jinli.

Qi Hao pursed his lips and unconsciously clenched his fingers.

Yin Zike to Gu Jinli, when did this start?

Looking back on the past, whether it was because of the grievances between the elders of the previous generation, or because of the entanglement between the next generation of Yin Suwan and Gu Jinli, in short, the Yin family and the Gu family were incompatible.

Yin Zike and Gu Jinli, even if the two of them do not have a deep hatred and blood hatred, they do not have the opportunity to have the love between men and women.

Searching all the memories, Qi Hao couldn't find any clues of Yin Zike's close relationship with Gu Jinli.

Similarly, Chen Zexuan couldn't think of anything.

Needless to say, the eighth prince has been living in the palace in his early years, rarely going out of the palace, and he doesn't know as much about things outside the palace as Qi Hao.

Seeing that Yin Zike was still not saluting, the eldest lady couldn't help but lower her voice and urged in a low voice: "Ke'er! ”

Yin Zike's eyes darkened, turned his head, and lowered it stiffly and hard.

"Licheng!" The ceremonial officer's task was completed, and his heart relaxed, "Send it to the cave room!" ”

The word "Licheng" made Mrs. Yin's heart feel more down-to-earth when she was worried about the accident.

Xi Po and the maid hugged Jiang Qinglan and walked towards the new house, and the remaining groom officials had to entertain the guests who were watching the ceremony.

"Congratulations, I wish the eldest prince Yin and Miss Jiang a hundred years of good together, and grow old!"

"Master Yin, congratulations, I wish you and Miss Jiang an early birth to a noble son, and a full house of children and grandchildren!"

Everyone held their glasses aloof, smiled genuinely or hypocritically, and said pleasant things.

Yin Zike nodded and said "thank you" while pouring down the wine in the wine glass.

The hall was filled with not a hundred, but eighty.

Most of the important ministers in the court came, but Gu Chengen was absent.

The reason is nothing other than that, that is, last time Yin Zike refused to cooperate with Gu Chengen in business, Gu Chengen was small-minded, so he was still holding a grudge against that incident.

Two or three glasses of wine per person, Yin Zike did not refuse to come, and it seemed that he was so happy that he had to get drunk before resting.

After a dozen glasses of wine, his pale face was finally stained with a hint of redness.

According to the etiquette, he was supposed to toast Qi Hao and Chen Zexuan at the table first, but for some reason, Yin Zike was a little abnormal, but started from the last table.

By the time he arrived at Qi Hao, he didn't know how many glasses of wine he had drunk.

Usually, he doesn't drink a drop of alcohol.

Now, after drinking a few empty wine cups, such a large amount of alcohol really stunned the entourage who pushed him in a wheelchair.

A handsome face was flushed, Yin Zike's hand holding the wine glass was a little unsteady, and his blurred eyes flashed with a sloppy light: "Lord Ning, Xuan...... Shizi, Lin ......"

The word "Lin Sheng", no matter what, he couldn't shout it anymore.

His heart was so sore that Yin Zike only felt that the amount of wine he had drunk just now suddenly rushed to his eyes.

He didn't say anything more, but poured the wine down violently.

Probably because he drank so quickly that he coughed heavily.

Originally, my face was red because of the strength of the wine, and because of the severe cough, it was even redder.

"Childe, how are you?" Seeing that Yin Zike was coughing heartbreakingly, the entourage hurriedly patted him on the back and whispered worriedly: "You have already drunk so much just now, don't drink it anymore." ”

Yin Zike stroked his chest, and his mind cleared up a little.

I don't know if it was burned by wine, or because of this marriage, the place where his subordinates were pressed was twitching all at once.

It hurts, it hurts.

"Ahem, cough, cough ......" Covering his mouth, Yin Zike picked up the wine cup in the wine tray again, poured himself a glass of wine, and looked straight at Gu Jinli with warm eyes that had dispersed the mist, and his stutter was much clearer than just now, "Lin Gongzi, I respect you for this glass of wine." ”

"Thank you Lin Gongzi for treating my leg carefully, and thank you...... Come back. ”

This "coming back" naturally does not refer to Gu Jinli's return from Yunguo, but to re-enter his world after two years of separation.

"Uh......" Gu Jinli didn't understand Yin Zike's words a little, so she had to smile and said: "Everyone and friends, Yin Gongzi doesn't have to be so polite." ”

Before, because Yin Zike's attitude towards Gu Jinli was a little different, Gu Jinli raised doubts about Chen Zexuan.

And the explanation given by Chen Zexuan is that Gu Jinli may have thought too much.

Chen Zexuan is sharper and more unique than himself, since he said so, Gu Jinli also thinks that he is too careful.

How to say that because of revenge, she has a lot of troubles, and if she puts her mind on Yin Zike, she will inevitably disturb herself again and give rise to a lot of troubles.

When Gu Jinli's cup of pleasure was exhausted, Yin Zike raised his hand and was about to pick up the wine cup again, but was held down by his entourage: "Childe, you can't drink anymore." ”

Yin Zike brushed away the hand of his entourage, and his tone was unquestionable: "I'm happy today, don't stop me." ”

The wine glass was full, just like his heart was so depressed and aggrieved that there was no room for it at the moment.

Full of sorrow, full of anger, but unable to vent.

He didn't say who he wanted to pay homage to, he poured himself into it, cup after cup.

The three people opposite, Qi Hao, Chen Zexuan, and Gu Jinli, looked at Yin Zike, who deliberately wanted to get himself drunk, and were silent.

Gu Jinli can probably guess Yin Zike's current mood, marrying someone he doesn't love should not be happy.

Qi Hao, like the other two men, expected that Yin Zike was so out of shape because of Gu Jinli.

On the men's side, Yin Zike had already finished greeting him, and the guests were chatting in groups.

On the other side of the women's seat, the eldest lady was walking back and forth enthusiastically, enjoying the praise and compliments of the women.

The beautiful woman has greatly satisfied her vanity.

The second aunt sat in the corner, watching the eldest lady shuttling through the banquet with vigor, and the hand hidden under the table tore the handkerchief in her hand indiscriminately.

"The eldest son, the eldest lady, it's not good, it's not good!"

Suddenly, Xi Po hurriedly ran in from outside.

The old face was full of panic, and her slightly chubby body almost fell forward because of the hurried steps under her feet.

Xi Po's shouting caused everyone to tilt their heads and look over.

The second aunt's eyes were happy, and she sat up straight unconsciously.

"On the day of the big day, why don't you pay attention to what you say!" The eldest lady glared at Xi Po fiercely, and said unhappily: "What happened?" ”

"Bride, she ......" Xi Po swallowed her saliva and trembled: "She...... She ......"

"She's dead!"

"What?!" The eldest lady was so frightened that her legs went limp, and she almost fell to the ground.

"Madame!" The maid beside her was quick and hurriedly helped her.

Yin Zike listened, his brows furrowed slightly.

Although he didn't like Jiang Qinglan and couldn't give her a place in his heart, since he had married someone into the door, he would live a life of respecting each other and not disturbing each other in the future.

He is the head of the Yin family, and she is a young lady.

As long as she keeps to herself and is filial to her mother-in-law, he will not tolerate her.

Anyway, she's just a woman.

Whether it is a troubled era or a peaceful and prosperous era, most women are just accessories of the family and men.

Pitiful, and pathetic.

"Oh my God, what a big day, the bride turned out to be ......"

"That's really...... Tsk, it's hard to say! ”

"Could it be that Grand Master Gu and Miss Jiang are incompatible?"

"Can't you, haven't you counted the eight characters, are these two a match made in heaven?"

“? G, it's hard to say! ”

……

Some good deeds, but they didn't hold back the nature of gossip, and began to talk about it from ear to ear.

Gu Jinli and Chen Zexuan glanced at each other, and the two quickly exchanged glances.

"No, it can't be!" The eldest lady didn't dare to accept the news, she pushed the little maid away, and ran to the new house with a white face through the crowd.

"Push me to see the new house." Yin Zike rubbed his eyebrows and said coldly.

"Yes, eldest son." The entourage responded, and then immediately pushed Yin Zike away.

Several official wives who were good friends with the eldest lady also followed.

Other people who like to join in the fun also poured out of the flower hall.

All of a sudden, half of the people in the flower hall were missing.

Gu Jinli thought about it, also left her seat, and said in a deep voice: "Go over and take a look." ”

"Wow", Chen Zexuan put the fan away, and without waiting for Qi Hao to squeak, he took the lead and said: "Go." ”

If there was no one around the two of them, it seemed that they didn't take the two brothers Qi Hao and the Eighth Prince in their eyes at all.

Qi Hao suppressed the anger in his heart and threw off his sleeves and left.

The Eighth Prince's gaze swept over the remaining stunned guests and chased them out.

"Sunny ...... Qinglan! The eldest lady looked at Jiang Qinglan, who was lying on the ground, bleeding from her seven orifices, and her old legs, which had been supported all the way, were finally paralyzed.

With a "bang", she fell backwards.

Jiang Qinglan stared at the boss with a pair of good-looking eyes, and her hijab fell to the side, looking like she had fallen from the bed.

Yin Zike also came in, he glanced at the situation in the house, and his voice couldn't hear joy and anger: "What's the matter?" ”

Jiang Qinglan's personal maid trembled like chaff, and said with a crying voice: "Back to my aunt, after the slave helped the young lady back to the room, the young lady said that the slave and maid were not in accordance with the rules in the room, so she asked the slave and maid to go outside to guard." ”

The slave obeyed the young lady and stood guard outside the door. Just now, the slave heard a scream in the house, so she was so frightened that she pushed the door and went in to take a look. ”

"This ...... It doesn't matter if you look at it, Miss, she actually ......"

"The slave didn't know what was going on, so she could only let Xi Po run to the front hall to report the news, and the slave and maid left behind to guard the body of the young lady."

The little girl's eyes were red, and Xi Po was afraid that she would also take responsibility, so she hurriedly echoed: "Yes, yes, the old slave is also like this girl, and he was startled when he heard the movement outside the door!" ”

may be due to the identities of Qi Hao, Chen Zexuan and others, so after the four of them came over, everyone immediately got out of the way.

Gu Jinli glanced at Jiang Qinglan's tragic death, and felt as if she had been poisoned.

However, I didn't check it carefully, and I didn't dare to make a decision.

"Lin Gongzi." Gu Jinli's medical skills are excellent, so Yin Zike turned his head to look at her, "I still have ...... for you."

"Okay." Before Yin Zike's words were finished, Gu Jinli understood what he meant: "Leave this matter to me." ”

With that, she stepped forward and squatted next to Jiang Qinglan's corpse.

didn't get started directly, first looked at Jiang Qinglan from beginning to end with his eyes.

His face was pale with a faint bruise, and the blood of the seven orifices began to take on a faint blackness.

The lips are also white and blue, and the hands are clutched in front of the chest, which is supposed to be a struggle movement when the hair is poisoned.

With a number in her heart, Gu Jinli rolled Jiang Qinglan's eyelids and probed her pulse.

He wiped the black blood from the corner of her mouth with a handkerchief, put it between her nose and sniffed it.

may be in the eyes of Mrs. Yin, Gu Jinli is as omnipotent as the Xiaoyaozi who has been away from Beijing for many days.

Therefore, leaning half of her body on the maid's body, she wiped her tears with a handkerchief and choked up: "Lin Gongzi, who killed Qinglan, who is so ruthless and wants to be ruthless to her!" ”

"Qinglan is docile and has never offended anyone, today is her and Ke'er's big day, how can she ......"

She couldn't cry, she complained with tears and snot, as if Gu Jinli was not a doctor, but a professional worker.

Yin Zike took the eldest lady's arm and said in a low voice, "Mother, don't disturb Lin Gongzi." ”

Gu Jinli put the black blood on the handkerchief in the water in the basin and soaked it for a while, and then said slowly: "The poison in Miss Jiang's body is a little rare, just look at it like this, and you can't find anything." ”

"Here's someone, get her to bed."

After a pause, he said, "The men are all out, I want to check her body." ”

When you check your body, you naturally have to take off your clothes.

There's nothing wrong with letting men out.

But Gu Jinli seems to have forgotten that she is also a man now.

So, after she said this, the whole room was stunned for a moment.

It was Jiang Qinglan's maid who reacted and hesitated: "Young Master Lin, there is a difference between men and women, this is ...... Not suitable, right? ”

"My son is a doctor, and in the eyes of the doctor, there are no men and women, only patients." Gu Jinli sneered, and said unceremoniously: "Besides, your young lady is not alive now, can my son still be so mad that he has evil thoughts about a corpse?" ”

Standing up, she looked at the men in the circle who also had different eyes between men and women, and said sarcastically: "Or, everyone present, who has such a mind?" ”

"No, no, Lin Gongzi is an upright person, so naturally we won't think about that dirty side!" One of the men pulled the minister in his hand away, and the other men laughed and withdrew.

Yin Zike sighed and said in a low voice: "Mother, don't be too sad, I'll wait outside." ”

With that, he ordered his attendants to push him out.

As she spoke, the maid had already carried Jiang Qinglan to the bed with Xi Po.

"You two go and stand aside, and get out of the light." Gu Jinli waved her hand, and then began to untie Jiang Qinglan's wedding dress.

"Yes." Glancing at the eldest lady who was sitting on a chair supported by the maid, the maid and Xi Po stood aside.

While Gu Jinli untied Jiang Qinglan's clothes, she was afraid that she would miss any clues, so she stared at her clothes without blinking.

Probably because Gu Jinli's expression was serious and serious, so several people in the room were nervously waiting.

After taking off the clothes, Gu Jinli checked the clothes inside and out, back and forth, and did not let go of anything.

"The coat is fine." After that, she planned to untie Jiang Qinglan's middle clothes again.

Seeing this, the little maid just wanted to open her mouth to stop Gu Jinli, but she thought that Gu Jinli was doing this to find out the murderer for her own young lady, so she had to shut up.

The middle coat faded, and Jiang Qinglan was left with only a belly pocket.

Gu Jinli's cold eyes were like a saw, moving inch by inch from under Jiang Qinglan's neck.

Jiang Qinglan's skin was smooth and delicate, and there were no scars on her body.

In general, how many symptoms the body will have after poisoning.

However, in addition to Jiang Qinglan's face being wrong, the color of her body is normal, which is a bit strange.

With her hands behind her back, Gu Jinli walked around the room and looked around.

Teapots, incense burners, and even a few flowers in a vase.

However, there is nothing wrong with everything.

Jiang Qinglan's poison should not be caused by the outside of the body, but from the inside of the poison.

"What did your young lady eat before she went out, or on the way? Or have you touched something that shouldn't be touched? With a frown, Gu Jinli asked.

The little maid shook her head without thinking and said, "No, before getting married, the old man instructed that the young lady can only eat at night when she has a cave room with her aunt." ”

"Miss is the most knowledgeable about the rules, so she didn't touch anything, not even a sip of tea."

After hearing this, Gu Jinli returned her gaze to Jiang Qinglan, and said after a while: "First put on the clothes for your young lady." ”

The poison that stayed in Jiang Qinglan's body for no more than four hours was not like the chronic poison that had been planted in the body before today.

Looking at Jiang Qinglan's death again, it looks like that kind of acute and poisonous medicine with strong toxicity.

Since the little maid said that Jiang Qinglan didn't touch anything on the way to the Jiang family and the Yin family, then it is very likely that she was poisoned in the Yin family.

The reason why Gu Jinli dared to infer like this was because the Jiang family only had one daughter, Jiang Qinglan.

There is no intrigue between Miss Shu and Jiang Qinglan, jealousy and calculation.

Therefore, no one in the Jiang family will do anything to Jiang Qinglan.

If the murderer is a girl from another family or someone who has an enmity with the Yin family, they have no chance to do it.

After all, Jiang Qinglan has always been accompanied by someone from the time she left the house to the branch maid, and before she was left alone in the new house.

Gu Jinli thought about it, and the only thing she could think of now was that Jiang Qinglan was poisoned in this house.

She'd checked the house, so what went wrong?

After the little maid put on Jiang Qinglan's clothes, Gu Jinli suddenly said, "Put her on the ground." ”

"Huh?" The little maid was a little dissatisfied, so she could only look at the eldest lady, hoping that the eldest lady would make the decision for Jiang Qinglan: "The eldest lady ......"

The clothes of their own young lady have also been stripped naked, but they haven't investigated the reason, and now they want to put their young lady on the ground, what do you want to do?

The eldest lady had already stopped crying after everyone had gone out.

Her emotions seemed to have eased down, she raised her chin, and said expressionlessly: "Do as Lin Gongzi instructs." ”

Although her face was calm, the nail of her little finger had broken half of it at some point, which showed that she was really angry to the extreme.

The little maid was helpless, so she had to ask Xi Po to help her carry Jiang Qinglan's body to the ground again.

Since Jiang Qinglan in the mouth of the little maid is a person who abides by the rules and etiquette extremely well, then she should not have left the bed after sitting down.

Gu Jinli walked to the side of the bed, first lifted the sheets, and looked at the bottom of the bed.

The bottom of the bed was clean, not even a single hair was missing.

Standing up, she reached out and groped on the bed.

Pillows, quilts are normal.

When he touched the snow rabbit fur mat that Jiang Qinglan was sitting on, Gu Jinli's hand was stunned.

The rabbit fur on the hair pad is snow-white and snow-white, and it is very delicate and thick to the touch.

Gu Jinli thought that there was an illusion just now, so she put her hand on it again and felt it carefully over and over again.

Suddenly, her eyes lit up and she sneered, "Finally found the root!" ”

When the eldest lady heard this, she stood up and strode forward: "Is there something wrong with this mat?" ”

Gu Jinli didn't respond immediately, but brushed away the rabbit fur little by little, and with her own feelings, she pulled out an extremely small silver needle with all her strength.

The eldest lady's old eyes were a little unclear, and she saw that Gu Jinli's two fingers didn't know what to pinch, so she asked, "This is?" ”

Gu Jinli squinted her eyes and said word by word: "Poison needle." ”

"Poison needle?!" The eldest lady's face changed, and she was angry and hateful: "Which one killed a thousand knives, daring!" ”

"Mrs. Yin, although I can't find out what kind of poison is in Miss Jiang's body, this poison needle was found from this mat. You can now send someone to find out whose hand the mat is passing by, so you can narrow it down. Gu Jinli exhaled heavily, and said helplessly: "After all, I am not from the Criminal Department, and my ability to investigate cases is limited, so there is only so much I can do." ”

Although I can't wait to find out the murderer now, it is not easy for Gu Jinli to find this poisonous needle in this dense rabbit fur.

After all, who would have thought that the cruel murderer would use this trick to kill?

It's not good to embarrass Gu Jinli anymore, Mrs. Yin gritted her teeth and said, "Thank you Gongzi Lin." ”

Gu Jinli gave up her hand and walked out of the room.
