"What's the trick?" Li Yu touched his chin and interjected. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

Li Canghai took out a piece of black paper from his sleeve and said, "This is what I found in the ruins of the side hall, at first I thought it was just burned ashes, but it was actually a black piece of paper. ”

"What does this mean?" Li Yu blinked his eyes and asked confusedly.

"In fact, the tripod we see is not the real tripod, but a fake tripod made of this black paper." Li Canghai said.

The second prince frowned, and said in a deep voice: "This is impossible...... If it is a tripod made of paper, due to the difference in weight, there will be obvious flaws, and we can't not see it. ”

"Yes, when the tripod made of pure paper paste is lifted, it shows obvious flaws. So the murderer used a very clever technique, he carved a tripod with ice cubes, and then pasted black paper around the tripod, so as to create an ice tripod that has some weight, but can be moved by one person. Li Canghai said.

"I understand that after the ice tripod is thrown into the fire, it will melt quickly when it is heated, and it needs to be watered when fighting the fire, so even if it melts and turns into water, no one would think that it will be the water after the ice tripod melts. However, after the fire was extinguished, we clearly found the black giant tripod in the ruins. Li Yu pondered for a moment and said suspiciously.

"It's very simple, the murderer only needs to get the tripod in advance, after all, the fire is soaring, no one will notice the things inside, not to mention, after the ice tripod melts, it has already become a puddle of water, we will naturally think that the tripod in the ruins is the one that the murderer threw in." Li Canghai pinched the piece of paper and said lightly: "In addition, the murderer coated the surface of the paper with flammable tung oil, so that it can not only accelerate the melting speed of the ice tripod, but also burn the paper completely with the help of the flame." ”

"Sure enough! However, it is also possible that these are the actions of the eldest prince, how do you know that he is not the murderer? Li Yu asked.

"Because the murderer is someone else." Li Canghai said.

"Since the murderer is not the eldest prince, who will the murderer be?" Li Yu asked puzzled.

Li Canghai sighed and said with disappointment: "Actually, the murderer is already obvious, who can make a pulley?" ”

"The Third Prince!?" Li Yu said instantly.

The ministers were stunned.

Even the eldest prince and the second prince were shocked.

The third prince's immature face was full of horror, tears kept rolling in his eyes, and he waved his hand again and again in a panic: "It's not me!" Not me! I didn't kill my father! ”

Li Yu looked the third prince up and down, and saw that his face was full of tears, crying like a tearful man, and he also shook his head and said, "Impossible!" He has only reached the age of bundling his hair, and he is still a child, how can he do such unbelievable things? Surely the gentleman is mistaken, right? ”

"Really? I hope I'm mistaken, but ...... That's just the way it is. Li Canghai sighed in disappointment.

"Just because he can make pulleys? Does the gentleman think he's the murderer? Perhaps, the pulley was stolen by the murderer, but it is not known. Li Yu said.

The eldest prince looked at the third prince with a frightened face, and said to Li Canghai: "Uncle Wang, the third brother has always been filial, and he will never commit murder to his father!" What's more, his father had already made an edict to let him inherit the throne, so how could he kill his father? ”

Li Canghai didn't speak, he picked up the edict from the table next to him, spit out and said, "This is the edict, but unfortunately, this is a fake edict." ”

"What? Fake edict? This...... How is this possible? The second prince, Xiyuan, exclaimed.

"At noon today, Qing'er brought me food, and because I had a lot of ink on my hands, Qing'er made me a basin of water for me to wash my hands, but I accidentally got the edict into the basin." Li Canghai said.

Di Qing pursed her lips and said, "I didn't mean to...... Why do you have to say it. ”

Li Canghai smiled slightly and said, "Qing'er, I don't blame you, but it is precisely because of your unintentional act that I discovered the mystery, you are a great hero!" ”

"Huh? What mystery? Hearing this, Di Qing hurriedly asked.

"Come on, get a basin of water!" Li Canghai Road.

A moment later, a maid walked in with a basin of water.

Li Canghai unfolded the entire edict and put it into a basin of water.

"Look, everybody!" After a while, Li Canghai pointed to the basin of water and said to everyone.

The crowd gathered around, but found that the edict in the basin began to disperse, and in a short time, the whole basin was filled with pieces of paper the size of fingernails with handwriting on them.

"What's going on? It's really strange, how could this good edict suddenly disperse? Li Yu asked in surprise.

"That's because the edict itself is a combination of so many scattered handwriting!" Li Canghai sighed deeply, he stared at Xizhen, who had a panicked face, and said: "You secretly collected your father's handwriting, took the handwriting you need, cut it out, and then framed and dried, so that it became a whole edict, am I not wrong?" ”

Seeing that Xizhen's pupils contracted, biting her lip, and being silent, Li Canghai continued: "Do you remember, I once asked you, where were you when your father died, and how did you answer?" You said that you found a unique ancient book and sent it to Hee Won. At that time, I thought it was a little strange, it was just an ancient book, as for you, would you send it to Xiyuan before dawn? Actually, you just want Hee Won to testify against you and prove that you have an alibi when the time comes. ”

"Uncle Wang, what you said is all your speculation. This edict ...... It may also be left by someone else, what evidence do you have to prove that I killed my father? Hee-jeong asked with a trembling voice biting her lip.

Li Canghai looked at him deeply and said, "Actually, I just found out your modus operandi, and there is no direct evidence that you killed your father. You're very smart, and you do everything perfectly, and it's a bit surprising that you have such a mind at such a young age. You killed your father because your father passed the throne to your two brothers, but not to you, so you hold a grudge. ”

Hee-jeong bit her lip and whispered, "I didn't!" ”

"Third brother! Honestly, Father...... Did you kill it? The eldest prince's eyes flashed with anger, and he shouted in a deep voice.

"I ...... I didn't....... The third prince's face was ugly, his expression was flustered, and he lowered his head and did not dare to look at the eldest prince. (To be continued.) )
