Chapter 030: There is no fear of the king
The warm spring breeze hit and blew over everyone's clothes.
The sunlight shining on the dappled palace walls seems to tell the story of what happened here in the past.
After Su Wuming, Di Bu, and Gonggong Feng came to Wang Cairen's bedroom, they immediately explained their intentions.
Wang Cairen is slender, graceful, glamorous, and beautiful, plus her extravagance, which makes people dare not look at her.
After listening to Su Wuming's narration, Wang Cairen frowned slightly, and said coldly: "Do you suspect that Bencai killed Xiuxiu because he hated Xiuxiu's dead girl?" ”
Su Wuming gave his hand again and again: "Now that the murder case has not been clarified, everything is still just a suspicion, Wang Cairen can win the emperor's favor, there must be something extraordinary, it should be clear, at this time, words are silent." ”
Wang Cairen snorted coldly, glanced at Su Wuming, and said, "You ask!" ”
Su Wuming responded again and again, and then asked, "Around Shenshi yesterday, where was Wang Cairen?" ”
"It's getting late around Shenshi, I can go there, naturally in the bedroom of this talented person!"
"Can anyone testify?"
"No, because I was upset at the time, I dismissed all the palace maids!"
Su Wuming and Di Bu exchanged glances, and then Su Wuming said: "Xiuxiu was killed around Shenshi, if Wang Cairen can't prove that he has an alibi at that time, I'm afraid we will have a lot of suspicions about you......"
Before Su Wuming finished speaking, Wang Cairen suddenly said angrily: "Okay, you Su Wuming, you are just a little eight-grade judge, and now you dare to command me with a cross eyebrow, do you believe that Ben Cairen will go to the emperor to sue you now, and let your head fall to the ground!" ”
Wang Cairen suddenly became angry, which frightened Su Wuming, and at this time, Gonggong Feng hurriedly stepped forward to comfort: "Wang Cairen is angry, the two of them were also ordered to investigate the murder case, and they had to do it as a last resort, Wang Cairen, you think, a palace maid in the palace was brutally killed, which means that there is a murderer in this palace, what a dangerous thing this is, the emperor is difficult to sleep and eat, and it is not possible to solve the case, Wang Cairen is a little patient, and the old slave believes that Wang Cairen is innocent." ”
Gonggong Feng's words made a lot of sense, although Wang Cairen was still angry after hearing it, but it was not as powerful as before, after a long time, she sat down again, looked at Su Wuming and said: "If you want to doubt, you will doubt, and the talented people will also cooperate with you, but if you go too far, then don't blame the talented people for turning their faces and being ruthless!" ”
Su Wuming made a small comment, and he dared to go too far in front of Wang Cairen, so after asking a few more questions, he left in a hurry.
After leaving Wang Cairen's bedroom, Gonggong Feng looked at Su Wuming with some reproach and said: "You, I really don't know the depths, what kind of person is Wang Cairen, she is the emperor's favorite concubine, she can kill you if she says a word in front of the emperor, you are too reckless!" ”
Su Wuming said yes again and again, but he felt very aggrieved in his heart, this murder case was asked by the emperor to investigate, who asked whom, this is normal, is it possible or his own fault?
After walking like this for a short time, Di Bu suddenly spoke: "Now that Wang Cairen has not been proved on the spot, should we ask Concubine Sun Xiang?" ”
It wasn't long after everyone left from Concubine Sun Xiang's side, but for the sake of the murder, they had to go again.
At this time, it was almost noon, so the projection of the wall of the cold palace palace was very short, and the short one could barely cover the few wildflowers in the corner.
When Su Wuming and Di Bu entered the cold palace, Concubine Sun Xiang and Xinxin were still staying in the pavilion, but at this time, Concubine Sun Xiang no longer looked at the ants, she just tilted her head slightly, looking at the door that was locked from the outside.
When Concubine Sun Xiang saw the door creak open, a smile suddenly appeared on the corner of her mouth, and she even wanted to get up and rush out, her body had already left the stone bench, but when she saw Su Wuming and Di Bu, she sat down heavily, and her face was sad.
The two came to the pavilion, Na Xinxin hurriedly saluted, Su Wuming waved his hand slightly, and then looked at Concubine Sun Xiang and asked, "Around Shenshi yesterday, where was Concubine Sun Xiang?" ”
Concubine Sun Xiang looked at Su Wuming with wide eyes, her lips were half-opened, but she didn't answer, she just kept chanting Shen Shi Shen Shi.
Seeing Concubine Sun Xiang like this, Su Wuming frowned slightly, and at this time, Xinxin, who was standing on the side, hurriedly said: "Lord Su, since Concubine Sun Xiang was beaten into the cold palace, she doesn't know the time, sometimes she sleeps during the day, but she is extremely excited at night, if you ask her where Shen Shi is, I'm afraid she won't be able to answer." ”
Su Wuming was a little surprised, he didn't expect that a woman would become like this after staying in this lonely deep palace for a long time, but is this really the case?
Could it be that Concubine Sun Xiang pretended to be stupid in order to confuse everyone?
Is she really stupid? Sometimes Su Wuming thinks she's quite normal.
Su Wuming's gaze moved upwards, moved to Xinxin, and asked, "Since you are serving Concubine Sun Xiang, then you should know where she was around Shen Shi yesterday, right?" ”
Seeing that she was asked about herself, Xinxin replied again and again: "I know, around Shenshi yesterday, Concubine Sun Xiang and I stayed in the courtyard of this cold palace, I remember that there was a butterfly that flew in secretly, Concubine Sun Xiang was very excited, kept chasing the butterfly, but after chasing for a long time, she didn't catch up, the butterfly danced and flew outside the palace wall, and then Concubine Sun Xiang stared at the palace wall, until I pulled her back to the house to rest, Xiuxiu was killed, if you don't come, we don't know yet!" ”
If what Xinxin said was true, Concubine Sun Xiang would have an alibi, and she would not be suspicious.
And just as Xinxin finished saying those words, Concubine Sun Xiang suddenly stood up from her chair and shouted: "Butterfly, what about my butterfly, butterfly, don't run ...... butterfly"
Xinxin hurriedly grabbed Concubine Sun Xiang and said, "Concubine Xiang, the butterfly has already flown out, and the slave maid will catch another one for you in the future, okay?" ”
Concubine Sun Xiang looked at Xinxin and nodded obediently.
Su Wuming looked at Concubine Sun Xiang, I don't know if she is really stupid or pretending.
When they left the cold palace, it was already noon, and as soon as they left the cold palace, they saw that someone from the palace had come here to deliver food, Su Wuming glanced at the food they brought, there were two butterflies in it, seven or eight steamed buns, and some desserts and a pot of wine along the way.
Seeing Su Wuming looking at the food, Di Bu smiled and said, "Is Lord Su hungry, if he is hungry, we will also go to eat, we can't be hungry here." ”
Su Wuming was naturally hungry, and smiled again and again: "This is natural, Lord Di, please!" ”
Gonggong Feng sent someone to bring meals to Su Wuming and Di Bu, although these meals are not as expensive as those eaten by the emperor, they are also the craftsmanship of the imperial chef, so they are very delicious, and the two of them eat with relish, which is simply amazing and delicious in the world.
Seeing the two of them like this on the side, Gonggong Feng smiled a little disdainfully, and then asked: "This Wang Cairen and Concubine Sun Xiang have already asked, I don't know if you can find out who the murderer is?" ”
Hearing Gonggong Feng's question, Di Bu, who was about to pour wine, suddenly stopped, and now they have indeed investigated a lot of clues, but if he says who the murderer is, he is not sure at all.
And at this time, Su Wuming was still eating, he not only ate the vegetables violently, but also took a glass of wine and drank it all, so that after eating and drinking, he wiped his mouth and smiled: "Father-in-law Feng, don't worry, the murderer may be able to catch you today." ”
"Today?" Gonggong Feng was shocked, and Di Bu was even more surprised, because they all thought it was incredible!
But Su Wuming didn't seem to be joking, and in this palace, how could jokes be made casually?
Di Bu put down the wine glass, quietly pulled Su Wuming, and whispered: "Master Su, this matter is not a joke, we haven't found the man who broke Xiuxiu's body, how can you boast of Haikou!" Di Bu said this, thinking that the people who just entered the Dali Temple are high-hearted, and they have not tasted the bitterness and do not know what regret is.
As soon as Di Bu finished speaking, Su Wuming smiled: "Don't worry, Master Di, the person who broke Xiuxiu's body will be able to find it immediately." ”
Everyone was still confused about this matter, and after hearing Su Wuming say so surely, they felt more and more that Su Wuming was talking big and wanted to be in the limelight.
However, when Su Wuming told his discovery and method, Father-in-law Feng and Di Bu suddenly stopped thinking so, and Father-in-law Feng even smiled and frowned, and said, "Master Su, don't worry, everything will be done according to what you say." ”
Su Wuming gave his hand again and again: "Then there is Father-in-law Lao Feng!" ”
Gonggong Feng left to prepare, Di Bu was half happy and half worried, happy that the murder case could finally be solved, and worried that although the murder case was solved, he did not solve it.
The spring breeze is blowing, and the fragrance of flowers can be faintly smelled, the place where the two of them are found is the place where Xiuxiu's body was found, Su Wuming raised his hand to the sky, in the sky not far away, there was a butterfly flying, the butterfly seemed to be free, but it could never fly out of the palace wall.
After half a pillar of incense, Gonggong Feng ran over to Su Wuming and said, "Everything has been arranged, do you want to start immediately?" ”
Su Wuming held his chin and thought for a while, then nodded: "It should be time!" ”
After the three of them walked out of the back garden, they went straight to the cold palace.
At this time, the sun is very warm, shining on the cold palace, and the cold palace is not cold.
The door of the cold palace was opened again, and this was the third time that Su Wuming and Di Bu had come today.
I'm afraid they are the only people who can enter the cold palace three times a day.
The spring breeze slowly blew into the courtyard of the cold palace with the opening of the cold palace door, blowing the flowers that were still blooming and the weeds that were growing wildly.
Seeing that Su Wuming and Di Bu were here again, although Concubine Sun Xiang and Xin Xin were surprised, they didn't have any reaction, Su Wuming first smiled lightly, and then stepped forward and asked, "Have you two had lunch?" ”
Su Wuming's question was too commonplace, so that Concubine Sun Xiang and Xinxin didn't know how to answer for a while, and at this time, Concubine Sun Xiang's brows suddenly wrinkled slightly: "The palace has already had lunch, what are you going to do?" ”
Concubine Sun Xiang's reaction was very strange.
