Yingxian walked out of the mourning hall with heavy steps and went straight to the ear room of the north courtyard. A thought swirled in my mind: I wronged Xiao Yinzi, and I must apologize to him for a good life. Soon walked to the door of the ear room, tidied up the placket, and as soon as he pushed the door, he thought that he should go to the Yan guard to get the key. Unexpectedly, the door squeaked open. A puff of dust came to my face. The room was extremely dark, and Yingxian couldn't see the situation inside, so he shouted: "Xiao Yinzi." ”

There was no answer.

"Xiao Yinzi."

Still no answer.

The dark way is not good. Stepping into the house, when his eyes adjusted to the darkness, he found that Xiao Yinzi was tied to the chair next to the table by a hemp rope. However,

Both the chair and the man fell to the ground. The ground was littered with fragments of vases, and a pool of congealed blood. Yingxian rushed forward, and when he saw Xiao Yinzi's wrist behind the chair, it was a blur of flesh and blood.

He, he actually committed suicide!

Yingxian slapped Xiao Yinzi's face hard, and called out repeatedly: "Xiao Yinzi, Xiao Yinzi." But nothing happened. When I sniffed, I was no longer breathing. Yingxian's heart suddenly sank. Holding on to the last glimmer of hope, he stumbled out of the ear room and shouted, "Someone! Come on! Help me! ”

Xiao Ningzi, Xiao Xuanzi and Xinting, who were still in the mourning hall, heard the sound and hurried to the scene, asking one by one, "What happened?" ”

Yingxian cried and said, "Xiao Yinzi...... He ......"

Xiao Ningzi rushed into the ear room and quickly lifted the entire chair to the courtyard, only to see Xiao Yinzi's face pale and stiff, obviously dead for a long time.

Xin Ting screamed, then covered his mouth with both hands, and retreated, trembling. Xiao Xuanzi said in a trembling voice: "I'll call the princess...... There are others. "Pull your legs and run away.

Yingxian couldn't support it anymore, collapsed and fell on the bluestone floor, tears spilling down the ground, and remorse spread endlessly in her heart.

Before I could tell him I was sorry and that it wasn't his fault, he chose to die to prove his innocence. In that dimly cramped hut, he died sadly, resentfully, and alone.

He was just tied with a piece of hemp rope. Since he broke the vase, he could have escaped by cutting the rope with the vase fragments, but he would rather kill himself.

Suicide is a kind of revenge. It is enough for the hearts of the living to be scorched by the flames of regret for the rest of their lives.

Their own guilt, their sincerity, their own cries for forgiveness, the dead can no longer hear.

There is no dry soil near tears, and there are broken clouds at low altitude.

Empty your mind...... Continuous emptying ......... I don't know how long it took, Situ Su and others arrived one after another, and their faces changed when they saw the tragic situation in front of them. Lan Sheng saw Yingxian fall to the ground numbly, and hurriedly went to help her, but was pushed hard by Yingxian and fell to the ground. Lan Sheng got up in embarrassment and said in horror: "Yingxian, what's wrong with you?" ”

Yingxian's eyes were filled with anger, and he gritted his teeth and said, "You, it's you, you're the murderer of Qingyan!" ”

Everyone looked at Lan Sheng in surprise when they heard this. Lan Sheng was even more stunned and at a loss: "What did you say?" ”

Situ Su personally walked over and helped Yingxian up and let her sit on the stone bench in the courtyard. After Yingxian's breath calmed down a little, he asked, "What is going on?" Did Xiao Yinzi commit suicide? ”

Yingxian nodded weakly, and said abruptly: "Princess, I blamed Xiao Yinzi by mistakenly identifying him as a murderer in front of everyone." And because of my rhetoric, no one believed him. He committed suicide in despair. I...... I'm sorry for him. ”

"But now you say that it is Qingyan that Lan Sheng killed? What is the evidence? ”

Ying Xian replied sadly: "I have no evidence. This is still just my speculation. This speculation is not necessarily entirely correct. But for the sake of Qingyan and Xiao Yinzi, I have to say it. Because that's the one I think is closest to the truth. ”

Situ Su said: "Say it." Whether you say it right or wrong, I forgive you. "Eyes are supple.

The sunset gradually converged, and the light and shadow of the courtyard were separated, full of solemnity and sadness exclusive to dusk. Ying Xian took a breath and said, "The reason why I doubted Xiao Yinzi earlier was because I had a pre-assumption in my mind. That is: if Qingyan was pushed into the water, she would definitely call for help. If you call for help, you will definitely be heard by the strict guards. ”

Situ Su said: "Not bad. You also asked Lan Sheng to give it a try. But when Xinting and Huiyi played the kite and the pipa, the cry for help could not be heard. ”

"Yes. So I've always thought that the smoke and water happened when they were playing in Xinting. And at that time, only Xiao Yinzi in the princess's mansion did not have an alibi. ”

Situ Su said: "You mean, in fact, Qingyan didn't fall into the water at that time?" ”

Yingxian said "um", "Princess, Qingyan can fall into the water very early without being discovered. Because...... Because ......" glanced at Lan Shang: "She was first stunned by someone by the pool, and then pushed into the water." ”

The crowd was in an uproar. Situ Su asked, "Then why didn't you have such an idea before?" ”

Ying Xian's remorse rose, and a hint of hoarseness was added to her voice: "Because when I asked the princess's mansion if everyone knew about Qingyan's ignorance of water, Xiao Ningzi said that Qingyan fell into the water last year and called for help." Therefore, I had a preconceived idea that if the smoke fell into the water, I would definitely call for help again. Coupled with the fact that Yin Bipo was playing music again, I took it for granted that the music was associated with the masking for help. That's why I wronged Xiao Yinzi. But then ......"

She looked at Xinting and said, "Until Xinting said just now, Qingyan was like falling asleep. It dawned on me that if Qingyan was really awake and pushed into the water, then she would have struggled. And the drowning corpse after a person struggling in the water will show all kinds of marks. For example, the distortion of the body, the pain and hideousness of the face, the water and grass in the nails, the mud and sand, etc. ”

"Qingyan's corpse doesn't have these signs?"

"Yes. When I examined the body, I only noticed that there were other fatal wounds on her body, but I missed the very possibility that she had passed out before entering the water. ”

Situ Su pondered: "If she is in a coma and falling into the water as you said, then the time of the crime may be the second or third quarter of the first month, that is, when Xiao Yinzi went back to get the satin and Lan Sheng was alone in the Fenghuan Pavilion. ”

"Yes. So it is very likely that Lan Sheng deliberately did not take silver satin. And Qingyan had already made an appointment with her and found another way to go to the water pavilion by the Huanying Pool. When Lan Sheng saw Qingyan in the Fenghuan Pavilion, she opened Xiao Yinzi, and then met Qingyan herself. ”

Lan Sheng frowned when she heard this, and was about to argue for herself, but Xiao Guizi couldn't help but ask first: "Then at this time, is it possible that Huiyi is talking about?" When did Hui Yi come back to Yinbi Slope from your house? She replied to Bipo, was it possible to go to the edge of Huanying Pond to get a dazzle and then push her into the water? ”

Li Changjun said at this time: "Xiao Guizi, it is not easy for a girl who has not usually practiced martial arts to quickly stun another girl by relying on her strength alone. However, if she can have any fantasies**, maybe. ”

Yingxian sighed: "Princess, you should still remember the story that Lan Sheng told during the last time Jiang Jiu'er and the three of them came to the mansion as guests. ”

Jiang Jiu'er? Yes, at that time, Lan Sheng told a story about the delicate death of people with various plant fragrances. Situ Su still remembers it vividly.

Yingxian said: "Everyone knows that Lan Sheng is the master of perfume in our princess's mansion. And it's clear that she also knows how to use spices to hurt people. If she had made any special incense herself, she would have passed out in a short period of time when she met Qingyan while she was not sparing it. At this time, if you push her into the water, you really don't know it. ”

Lan Sheng stared at Ying Xian incredulously and said, "Ying Xian, I can only say that your imagination is too rich. Tell me, why did I kill Qingyan? ”

Yingxian said bitterly: "Before Qingyan died, she asked me if she said something to me in the future that she shouldn't say, or if she saw something she shouldn't have seen and didn't tell me, I would punish her. She asked hypothetically, but of course it had already happened. The so-called 'said something that shouldn't be said' I want to refer to the insult to Xiao Yinzi last night, but 'seeing something that shouldn't be seen' means something else. ”

"What do you mean?"

"Actually, when Hui Yi came to my house, she told me that she asked Qing Yan to go buy ingredients early in the morning, and Lan Sheng went to buy fruits earlier."

Situ Su said: "Are you saying that Qingyan saw Lan Sheng and the so-called 'shouldn't see' things on the way to buy ingredients?" ”

Yingxian said, "Yes, princess." The reason why I think this is not for nothing. Because, once when I was riding out of the house, I saw Lan Sheng talking to a strange man in a tea shop. She turned to Lan Sheng and asked, "What else did you give him?" Is there such a thing? ”

Lan Shang's face turned red, and she stammered, "You, you, you saw it." ”

Yingxian then said: "I didn't pay attention to it at the time, and then I gradually forgot about it. Now that I think about it, maybe it was you who were secretly doing something shady or having a private relationship. Maybe you did something too much this morning, and Qing Yan happened to see it and broke you. She said bluntly that she was going to tell the princess, and you had a bad thought. ”

Lan Sheng opened her mouth and wanted to say something, but she didn't know where to speak.

Situ Su asked quietly, "What are you doing when you meet?" ”

Lan Sheng suddenly knelt on the ground and choked up, "Princess, I confess." I did use my spare time to make some incense and incense powder with special effects, and later I secretly sold the incense I made to others to make a small profit. What Yingxian saw that day was just one of my old customers. I've never had anything to do with men out there. And those things are also used to increase fragrance and remove filth, calm the nerves and wake up the mind, and they are by no means harmful things. I hope the princess will see clearly. ”

Yingxian bit her pale lip and said, "But Qingyan's drowning appearance does look like someone fainted in advance." In terms of time, your suspicion is the greatest. ”

Everyone looked at Lan Xiang. Suspicious, sad, angry eyes instantly overshadowed her. She couldn't think of a good rebuttal, so she sobbed and trembled. The crowd stood silent. At one point, the evening breeze was clear, blowing the blue skirt and fluttering. A pretty face has lost its blood, and the tears are dotted, which makes it even more pitiful. Suddenly, a crow hovered in the sky, crying hoarsely, tearing through the silence of the courtyard.

At this moment, a person suddenly walked out of the crowd, walked quickly in front of Situ Su, and suddenly knelt down. said: "Princess, Miss Yingxian guessed correctly. Qingyan was indeed pushed into the water after being stunned. Merely...... It wasn't Lan Sheng who pushed her down, it was me. I did the whole thing, and it had nothing to do with her. ”

After saying this, the man turned his eyes to Lan Sheng again, sighed and said, "Lan Shang, now that the matter is over, we don't have to hide our affairs anymore." ”

The twilight is deep. There was a commotion. Ying Xian looked at this person and felt that his consciousness had fallen into a trance again.

He is the chief of guard of Princess Wen's mansion, Yan Xuying.
