Time is just a concept, and it means different to everyone.

For many people, time is wasted.

But for some people, time is life, and every second counts.

Because every second that passes, I am one step closer to death.

At this time, He Ning is the latter, and only he can save his life.

There is not much time he can control, and three days can decide the life and death of his family.

Day 1, early in the morning.

Before dawn, Feng Jiutian and He Ning had already gotten up.

Because they can't sleep, and they don't dare to fall asleep anymore, if they sleep for a while, they may delay a clue and delay the lives of countless people.

The two of them took a brief wash with cold water and began to discuss the plot.

"Uncle He, where do we start with this case?"

"Of course, take a closer look at the crime scene first."

"I heard that Shi Jingjiao died in the imperial study?"

"That's right, the first emperor did die in the imperial study."

"What do you think was the real cause of his death?"

"According to common sense, it should be poisoning, but if it is, how can the imperial doctor not see it?"

"Maybe there's another possibility."

"Oh? The virtuous nephew might as well talk about it. ”

"Maybe someone stole the secret weapon."

"I can't rule out this possibility, the murderer must have used a very fine poison needle."

"If that's the case, the murderer must be hiding in some secret corner."

"Yes, it's not uncommon to see such tactics."

"But what is the murderer's motive for assassinating Shi Jingjiao?"

"Everyone's motive for killing is different, and you can only know if you find the murderer."

"Okay, you can use my place, just ask!"

"Haha, these three days are indispensable for troublesome nephews!"

The two looked at each other and smiled, and the atmosphere instantly became extremely relaxed and harmonious.

By this time the day was getting brighter, and they hastily had breakfast and left for the palace.

The Royal Palace, the Imperial Study.

The sunlight shines into the room through the window paper, and the imperial study is extremely bright by the sunlight, and everything in the room is clearly illuminated.

He Ning led a group of guards to surround the imperial study.

Subsequently, the eunuch who accompanied the emperor on the day of the summons came to the front.

When He Ning saw him, he bowed slightly and asked.

"Gonggong Zhang, when the first emperor died, were you by His Majesty's side?"

Gonggong Zhang nodded, his eyes were not only sad but also nervous.

"Yes, it was the miscellaneous family who was by the side of the emperor that day."

"Were the doors and windows of the study closed or open that day?"

"It was an unusually cold day, and the doors and windows in the palace were closed."

"Have you seen anything out of the ordinary?"

"No, absolutely not."

"Do you hear anything out of the ordinary?"

"The miscellaneous family didn't hear it either, everything was normal that day."

"Hmm...... There is Lao Zhang's father-in-law. ”

"This little thing, why bother with adults."

He Ning smiled and nodded, then moved his gaze to the imperial study.

He believes that as long as it is the scene of the crime, there will be some clues, and no matter how clever the perpetrator is, he will never escape his eyes.

He slowly walked into the imperial study, his movements very cautious and cautious.

And condensing the countless cases, more and more clear one thing.

That is the really useful clues, often hidden in seemingly ordinary corners, as long as you are not careful, as long as you take a quick step, you may miss the clues.

He carefully checked all the doors and windows, and he was a little disappointed.

These doors and windows are not damaged, but there is not a trace of dust.

He thought for a moment, and then came to the desk in the middle of the study.

This desk is large and delicate, and much more luxurious than a regular desk.

There wasn't much on the table, just a pen holder, a few pens, and a solid gold incense burner.

He Ning gently picked up these pens and held them in front of him to look at them again and again.

He looked very carefully, and he could even see how many wolves were on the pen.

After reading it, he shook his head and sighed lightly.

His eyes were back on the pen holder where the pen was hung.

Soon, he shook his head again, apparently again with nothing.

At this time, Feng Jiutian walked up to him and gently picked up the pure gold incense burner.

"Is there a problem with this incense burner?"

"Unlikely."

"How can you be sure it's okay?"

"If there is a problem with the incense burner, then nine times out of ten there is a problem with the incense?"

"That's right, this incense burner is too small to fit a hidden weapon."

"If the incense is poisonous, Grandpa Zhang's attendant must also be poisoned."

"You have a point."

"Do you suspect that Grandpa Zhang also has a problem?"

He Ning lowered his voice and asked Feng Jiutian in a low voice.

"That's right, if all this is done by Grandpa Zhang, it will be reasonable."

Feng Jiutian's voice was not loud, so as not to be heard by Gonggong Zhang.

"Then it's even more problematic."

"Why?"

"Because Gonggong Zhang has always been loyal to the first emperor, he has no motive to kill!"

"But what if the current emperor wants to take the throne and buys him out?"

"If that's the case, I'm afraid there will only be two outcomes now."

"What two outcomes do my nephew not understand?"

"Father-in-law Zhang was either killed, or he has already become the head of the inner house."

Feng Jiutian nodded when he heard this.

"You're really powerful, and what you say is very reasonable."

He Ning smiled slightly and shook his head lightly again.

"It's nothing, it's just that there are too many big cases that have been solved, and it's just experience."

As he spoke, he took the incense burner, and he looked and looked, touched and touched, and opened the lid of the stove to check the ashes, and finally put it down.

"This incense burner turned out to be exactly what I expected, and there was nothing wrong with it."

Feng Jiutian's eyes were full of admiration when he looked at He Ning at this time.

"Uncle and Uncle are worthy of their reputation, and the little nephew admires it!"

He Ning smiled, didn't say anything, and walked straight to the dragon chair.

He looked at the chair for a long time and touched it many times.

The result is still the same as Fang Cai, there is no clue at all.

He could only go back to the bookshelf and look at it very closely.

After a long time, he shook his head again and left the bookshelf.

His steps slowed down, and thoughts were rolling in his head.

"Uncle He, who do you think the murderer is?"

Feng Jiutian was a little impatient and asked.

"Hmm...... Virtuous nephew, you are light and strong, can you go up to the beam of the house to see? ”

Feng Jiutian looked at the beam above his head and nodded.

I saw that his toes touched the ground lightly, and the man had already climbed onto the beam.

Although this imperial study was spotless, the beams were full of dust, and there was no trace at all except for the footprints left by Feng Jiutian himself.

He could be sure that if someone really shot Shi Jingjiao, he would never hide on the beam.

So he quickly rolled over and got off the beam, shaking his head at Hening.

Seeing this, He Ning sighed and called Father-in-law Zhang into the room.

"Father-in-law Zhang, are the objects on this table the same as those placed that day?"

"Well, Lord Huihe, only a cup of tea and a plate of snacks are missing."

"Oh? Where are the tea and snacks now? ”

"Your Majesty believes that the first emperor did not die of murder, so these things have long been removed."

"I see, has anyone tested these things?"

"At that time, the miscellaneous family was on the side, and these things were checked by the miscellaneous family."

"Do you notice anything unusual?"

"No...... Can...... I don't know ......."

"Oh? Father-in-law Zhang, what are you hiding unspeakably? ”

Feng Jiutian saw that Gonggong Zhang was a little stumbling, and hurriedly asked.

"The miscellaneous family has been a little dizzy that day."

"Could it be that these foods are poisonous?"

He Ning frowned slightly, and his expression looked a little dignified.

Father-in-law Zhang was a little hesitant at this time, but he still opened his mouth to add.

"And my lord, the miscellaneous family occasionally felt a cold that day, maybe it was ......"

He Ning Wenyan nodded, and then put his right hand on Gonggong Zhang's pulse.

"Grandpa Zhang, you do suffer from wind chill, and dizziness is normal."

He Ning shook his head and spoke.

"And my lord, if this food is really poisonous, I'm afraid it's not just the first emperor who will die."

He Ning nodded and bowed to Gonggong Zhang.

"There is Lao Zhang's father-in-law, if the official thinks of anything again, I'm afraid he will still bother."

"It's okay, it's okay, within three days and the adults will be on call."

Gonggong Zhang returned the salute to He Ning, and then left slowly.

"And uncle, there may really be no clues at this scene."

He Ning Wenyan sighed, and his face was a little gloomy.

He walked slowly out of the imperial study, stood with his hands in his hands, and looked up at the sun overhead.

"Go in and search carefully, and don't let go of every brick."

He Ning's voice was very majestic at this time, and all the guards around him dared not disobey.

They followed the instructions and carefully investigated for a while, but in the end there was still no result.

He Ning's face became ugly at this time, and it was ugly enough for fifteen people to look at it for half a month.

"This case must have been committed by a master, and his clever methods are the only ones I have ever seen in my life."

He muttered softly, as if he was saying to Feng Jiutian, and as if he was talking to himself.

"Uncle He, I believe that no matter how clever the murderer is, there will be flaws."

"Yes, it won't be without flaws, it's just that we haven't found it yet."

It was already noon, and still nothing was found, so they had to leave the imperial study first.

He Ning had no intention of resting, and he was afraid that everyone would not be able to bear it, so he had to go out of the palace to eat first.

The noon sun shines on the Heyi Tower, and everyone in the building is bathed in warm sunlight.

Although the Heyi Tower is not very large, it is very elegantly furnished.

In the capital, beside the palace, the tavern is naturally extraordinary.

He Ning and the others sat down on the second floor, ordered a few dishes, and no one drank.

But a guest at the next table ordered a lot of food and drinks.

Feng Jiutian smelled the aroma of wine and couldn't help but salivate a little. Most of the guards were good at drinking, and they also became as gluttonous as Feng Jiutian.

And what He Ning focuses on is not the wine, but the people who drink.

The drinker was a teenager in his twenties, a teenager with a dusty temperament.

Although He Ning couldn't see his face, he could smell the bursts of medicinal fragrance emanating from his body.

At this time, a smile appeared on his face, a very pleasant smile, as if he had seen a long-lost relative. He took the initiative to walk up to the young man and gave a gentle salute.

"Dare to ask this son, but is he from Suxin Villa?"

"That's right, in Xia Suxin Villa, Liu asked Shu, what is the name of this gentleman?"

The young man spoke softly when he heard this, and then stood up and returned the salute.

"The old man and Ning, and the grades."

The young man suddenly showed admiration and said with a smile.

"It turned out to be with adults, I have admired you for a long time, and I often hear the tutor mention you."

Feng Jiutian heard that this person was from Suxin Villa, and couldn't help but ask.

"Young Master Liu, dare to ask Jasmine who are you?"

Liu Wenshu saw that Feng Jiutian had an extraordinary temperament, and he didn't dare to underestimate it.

"Jasmine is the family teacher."

Liu Wenshu said solemnly, his tone full of admiration and pride.

"I heard that your master has superb medical skills, but I hate not to see it."

Hearing the conversation between Feng Jiutian and Liu Wenshu, the smile on He Ning's face became even more cute.

"Hahaha, don't blame me for speaking ugly, if I have nothing to do, I must be a traitor or a thief."

Liu Wenshu smiled at Feng Jiutian and said.

Feng Jiutian was silent and turned to look at He Ning.

"Hahaha, Liu Gongzi is really fast-talking, and the old man won't sell Guanzi."

"And my lord, I have heard your teacher say that you are a person, just open your mouth if you have something."

"The old man wanted to carry a letter and ask the little girl Jasmine to come to help, but the road was far away......"

"It turns out that the famous 'Beihe' is actually the ancestor, disrespectful, disrespectful!"

"When I met Liu Gongzi here today, God really helped me!"

"The ancestor has a place to be useful, even if he is instructed, the younger generation will not give up."

"The old man wants to ask you to help solve a strange case."

"Solve the case? But the case of the fire in the Drunken Moon Tower? ”

"No, it's a case of the death of the first emperor."

"Oh? Didn't Shi Jingjiao die of heart disease, could he have cheated the corpse? ”

"Haha, deceitful corpse! Brother Liu is really good at laughing! ”

Feng Jiutian laughed and pointed at Liu Wenshu, but He Ning had no intention of laughing.

"Young Master Liu, do you know that the Imperial Physician King is enlightened?"

"Not very familiar, but I know."

"How's his medical skills?"

"He was once instructed by his mentor, and in today's world, medical skills are one of the few."

"Then could he have seen the disease of heart disease wrong?"

"Never!"

"But before he was executed, he kept saying that the first emperor did not die a natural death!"

"Haha, then this case is interesting, I must go and see."

"Haha, I can't ask for it, I can't ask for it."

The two looked at each other and smiled, it was originally a meeting in Pingshui, but it seemed to be a reunion after a long absence.

The afternoon sun hung lazily in the sky, reflecting Shang Yao.

Wang Jingwu's death does not seem to have the slightest impact on Shang Yao.

At this time, the doctors in the bureau were still as listless as before.

It wasn't until He Ning and the others arrived that Feng Yu and the imperial doctors began to get busy.

He Ning has the royal gold medal in his hand, and they are naturally very thoughtful to He Ning and the people who came to investigate the case.

"Master Mei, this official is here to investigate the case, please forgive me for the trouble."

He Ning said and bowed to Fengyu Meihua with a smile on his face.

"My lord is doing things for Your Majesty, and we will do our best to cooperate."

Feng Yu Meihua also showed a smile on her face at this time, and bowed back the salute.

There are many large and small houses in the Shang Pharmacy, and the air is filled with a strong medicinal fragrance.

He Ning and the others followed Mei Hua's guidance and walked into the largest room in the courtyard.

There is a large medicine cabinet in the room, and a wooden table is placed in front of the medicine cabinet.

In addition to some medicinal herbs on the wooden platform, there are several large stacks of heavy records.

Feng Jiutian knew very little about medicine, and it could even be said that he didn't know anything about it.

He Ning and Liu Wenshu are both proficient in medicine, and what they see is naturally different from them, He Ning is looking through the heavy records at this time, while Liu Wenshu is looking at medicinal materials.

"Whoa...... Wow...... Whoop ......"

At this time, the room was quiet, and only the sound of paper being turned could be heard.

These thick books record the prescriptions prescribed by Shang Pharmacy every day, the content is boring and boring, it is difficult for ordinary people to read, but He Ning looks very seriously, and the expression on his face is also very dignified.

After a long time, his hand turning the paper stopped, and he turned his head to look at Fengyu Meihua.

"Master Mei, are all the records about the condition of the first emperor here?"

"Yes, it's all here."

"Then do you know where you can find the records from seven years ago?"

"And my lord, seven years ago, the first emperor was still a military general, this record is probably ......"

Feng Yu Meihua's tone was a little hesitant, and his expression was a little embarrassed, and then he thought about it again, and a puzzled look appeared on his face.

"And my lord, do you think the problem was seven years ago?"

Seeing Mei Hua's embarrassed expression, He Ning shook his head with a smile.

"Haha, the official just didn't see the problem, so he asked casually."

"I see, it's the lower officials who think too much."

At this time, Liu Wenshu, who was inspecting the medicinal materials, also asked.

"Master Mei, are these herbs the same batch as the Emperor Xian has been taking?"

"Yes, after the death of the first emperor, no one came to Shang Pharmacy to grab medicine."

"That's weird, it's weird, isn't it?"

When He Ning and Feng Jiutian heard this, they couldn't help but be stunned, and then asked at the same time.

"Did you make any discoveries?"

Liu Wenshu shook his head with a smile, looking very helpless.

"No, the reason why I say strange is because there is nothing wrong with these herbs themselves."

He Ning and Feng Jiutian were a little deflated when they heard this, and their excited expressions returned to silence.

Fengyu Meihua breathed a sigh of relief and said confidently.

"The medicinal materials of Shang Yaodian are exclusively for use in the palace, and there will never be any problems."

He Ning nodded slightly, thought for a moment, and then asked again.

"Master Mei, can you still find the medicine residue that cures the emperor's heart disease?"

"Yes, of course! These things are not going to be easily dealt with. ”

"That's good, please take it for the official to see."

"Okay, the lower official will go and get it."

Feng Yu Meihua said and gave a salute, turned around and walked out of the room quickly.

Soon Mei Hua returned, still holding a lot of paper bags in his hand, he put them on the wooden platform and smiled at He Ning.

"And my lord, the dregs of the medicine for nearly half a month are here."

He Ning nodded and walked over slowly, and Liu Wenshu also came over.

They cautiously opened the packets, lest they miss a clue.

These medicinal materials were decocted and left for more than ten days, and it was difficult to identify even the most brilliant Langzhong.

But Liu Wenshu only lightly picked up a small pinch of medicine residue, looked at it, and sniffed it again.

Then he opened his mouth, without a trace of hesitation in his tone, and seemed extremely confident.

"Sandalwood, green wood, frankincense, cinnabar, borneol......"

Mo said that Feng Jiutian was dumbfounded when he heard it, and even Mei Hua admired it so much.

"There is no deviation in what this son said, and the lower officials really admire it."

Liu Wenshu smiled, and then his gaze looked at He Ning.

"Master, is there anything wrong with what the younger generation said?"

He Ningzheng looked at these scumbags and was stunned, and only came back to his senses when he heard Liu Wenshu's words.

"I'm not very proficient in pharmacology, but I'm sure you're right."

"Oh? Master is a peerless miracle doctor, isn't her medical skill the ancestor ......?"

"I just know a little bit about the skin, the little girl's medical master is inherited from my old friend Chen Luan."

"Ahh I see. Master's medical skills are actually inherited from Chen Tuan's ancestor! ”

"How long have you been at Suxin Villa? Didn't the little girl mention Chen Luan's old friend to you? ”

"The younger generation has been apprenticed for three years, but I have never heard the master mention it."

"Well, the little girl must not want too many people to know, for fear of disturbing the peace of her old friend."

"The younger generation has been practicing medicine for many years, but I only know that the ancestor is a master of physiognomy, but I don't know that he can also heal!"

"Chen Lu's old friend is a pedantic man, and the old man is beyond his reach in this life."

Mei Hua couldn't help but be a little dumbfounded when she heard the conversation between He Ning and Liu Wenshu.

Chen Luan's ancestor was famous all over the world, but he didn't know that he was an old friend of Hening. He couldn't believe that the young man in front of him was actually Chen Luan's apprentice.

He Ning didn't pay attention to Mei Hua's expression, and didn't care what he was thinking.

At this time, there was only one thing in his heart, an extremely important thing.

"Ask Shu, do you think these scumbags are really okay?"

"No, no problem at all."

"Are you sure?"

"Absolutely! Don't say that if you mix it with poison, even the amount is not different. ”

"That's weird, it's so weird!"

"What did you find?"

Liu Wenshu and Feng Jiutian both looked at He Ning and asked in unison.

"The imperial physician recorded that the first emperor was in good health, and the medicine was fine, as the imperial physician said......"

Feng Jiutian saw that He Ning was still a little hesitant, so he added.

"Imperial Physician Wang may be right, Shi Jingjiao really didn't die of heart disease!"

He Ning's expression was solemn and he nodded heavily.

"In this way, there is only one possibility for the death of the first emperor, and that is murder!"

"But every murder will leave a trace, but why is there no clue?"

Feng Jiutian's eyes were full of doubts and incomprehension.

"I believe there must be something we haven't seen and thought of."

He Ning muttered softly, as if talking to herself.

Then he looked at Mei Hua, and then at the medicine residue and the records on the table.

"Master Mei, can you let this official bring these things back?"

Mei Hua smiled and nodded.

"Of course! Of course! I opened my mouth with the adults, can I not allow it? ”

He Ning smiled and asked Liu Wenshu and Feng Jiutian to take their things and leave the Shang Pharmacy.

That night, the three of them sat at the table.

They did some research on what they had brought back from Shang Pharmacy during the day.

Feng Jiutian had no interest in medicine, and coupled with the fatigue of the day, he soon fell asleep.

He had a dream, a very beautiful dream.

In the dream, he assisted and solved Shi Jingjiao's case, and he also found the enemy who killed his father.

But the good dream didn't last long, Feng Jiutian felt that he had just fallen asleep, and the sky was already faintly bright.

The moment he woke up, he tried to remember the face of the enemy who killed his father in his dream, but he couldn't remember anything.

One second he was still happy in his dreams, and the next second he could only be sad in reality.

He looked at He Ning, and then at Liu Wenshu, and the two of them were still sitting at the table, the same as before he went to bed.

Only the faint light of the sky outside the house announced that the first day had passed.

"Did you wake up so early, or did you not sleep last night?"

Feng Jiutian rubbed his eyes, with a hint of tiredness in his tone.

"Brother Feng, you must have had some good dream last night, and there is still a smile on the corner of your mouth."

Although Liu Wenshu's tone seemed relaxed, his red eyes told Feng Jiutian that he had not slept all night.

"It's a pity that after studying all night, there is not the slightest clue."

He Ning sighed at this time and spoke slowly.

"What! You haven't slept all night, or don't have any clues? ”

Feng Jiutian couldn't believe it, his expression was full of surprise and puzzlement.

"Yes, but one thing the old man can be sure of."

"What's the matter?"

"The first emperor did not die of natural causes, and the cause of death has nothing to do with Shang Yao."

Speaking slowly, anyone can see his confidence and helplessness.

"And what can we do today?"

Feng Jiutian looked at He Ning, although there was still tiredness in his eyes, but more of expectation.

He Ning thought for a moment, and then his gaze became determined.

"Just now, someone came to report that Xuzhou Jiedu had made Liu Zhiyuan return to Beijing."

"Are we going to see him today?"

Liu Wenshu looked at He Ning and asked with a guess.

He Ning nodded and looked at Liu Wenshu with a smile.

"Liu Gongzi is really clever, that's right, let's go meet Liu Zhiyuan today."

Feng Jiutian heard that he wanted to see Liu Zhiyuan, so he hurriedly spoke.

"I have some holidays with Liu Zhiyuan, so I won't accompany you!"

He Ning Jiu Wenfeng was not afraid of the ground every day, but he didn't expect that he was afraid to see Liu Zhiyuan.

"Haha, Zhiyuan has always been generous, you don't have to take some small things to heart."

"It's not a small thing, it's a big thing."

"Something great? Did you kill his family or his beloved general? ”

"That's right, his general Li Zuolin died at the hands of his little nephew."

"Could it be that the robbery of congratulatory gifts is a good nephew and your ......?"

"It was the little nephew who did it."

"Then you don't have to worry about Liu Zhiyuan retaliating against you."

"Why?"

"He would rather give congratulatory gifts to those who ask for food than to give them to Khitan!"

"The little nephew will never believe that Liu Zhiyuan will be such a person!"

"Believe it or not, Liu Zhiyuan is such a person."

"Then the little nephew will accompany Uncle and Uncle on this trip."

Feng Jiutian is not afraid of death, and he is not afraid of a strong opponent.

The only thing in this world that he can't accept is that someone humiliates him in public.

But whoever dares to humiliate him will die by his sword.

But Liu Zhiyuan can't be killed, and he can't be killed no matter what before the case is solved.

If Liu Zhiyuan made a humiliating statement, he could only let it go.

There is a sedan chair parked in front of Liu's house, an extremely luxurious sedan chair.

There are very few people in the world who can have such a sedan chair, and very few are like stars.

As soon as he arrived in front of Liu's mansion, He Ning's eyes drifted to this sedan chair.

"Genius is slightly bright, who came to visit Liu's Mansion so early?"

He Ning's brows furrowed slightly, confusion and worry written all over his face.

He was puzzled when he saw a person walking out of the gate of Liu's mansion.

This man was dressed in a sable body, wore a pure gold ring, and carried a sword around his waist, and he exuded a kind of nobility all over his body, but he was not noble but rich.

There is no shortage of rich people in the world, but there are not too many ways to be richer than the person in front of you.

If it were someone else, I am afraid that he would think that he was just a big businessman with a good business, but when He Ning saw this person, he hurriedly stepped forward and slammed it to the ground.

"Xiaguan has seen King Han!"

When Liu Wenshu and Feng Jiutian saw He Ning like this, they knew that this person's status must be extremely noble.

Han Wang Shi Jinghui saw He Ning saluting him, he also smiled, and said with a wave of his big hand.

"Haha, Jiuwen and Lord are diligent, it's true! Hurry up and get excused! ”

"Thank you, Lord Wang! It is the duty of the lower officials to share the worries of His Majesty and the court. ”

Unexpectedly, He Ning did not rush to straighten up, but continued to speak slowly.

"I heard that the prince was in distress in Zuiyue Tower the day before yesterday, and the lower official should have come to visit the prince."

"Haha, this king is fine! I worried about this king! ”

"The prince is a relative of the emperor and an important minister of the court, how dare you not worry about your safety?"

"Hahaha, this king still has something to do today, and I'll talk about it in the palace another day."

"Good. Congratulations to the prince! ”

Shi Jinghui nodded with a smile, waved his hand at He Ning, and slowly stepped into the sedan chair.

Although the sedan chair was not light, it went faster and faster, and disappeared at the end of the street in a moment.

"How could King Han go out so early and deign to meet Liu Zhiyuan?"

Feng Jiutian asked puzzled.

"He has a slight friendship with Zhiyuan, and this matter is normal."

"But he doesn't act like a little friendship."

"When the virtuous nephew said this, the old man also felt a little strange."

Liu Wenshu couldn't help but feel a little funny when he heard the conversation between the two.

"Haha, go in and ask, won't it be clear?"

He Ning Wenyan also smiled.

"Liu Gongzi is really smart, what he says is extremely true!"

When the guards at the door heard that they were condensing, they were busy smiling and bowing deeply.

"It turns out that I'm here with an adult, so I'm going to communicate!"

A moment later, a loud voice came from the door.

"Brother Grade, don't come to harm? I miss my little brother! ”

At the same time as the voice arrived, it was a majestic person with a special face.

He Ning saluted again when he saw the visitor, and his expression was obviously happier than just now.

"Brother Zhiyuan, you have been in Xuzhou for a long time, and I miss you too!"

"Haha, if it weren't for Dajin, I really want to get along with Brother Grade every day!"

"Brother Zhiyuan, why don't I want to do this?"

"Don't always stand at the door, come in and have a few drinks with my little brother!"

Liu Zhiyuan pulled He Ning and walked towards the house, and laughter echoed in the house.

Liu Zhiyuan instructed his subordinates to prepare wine and food, but He Ning shook his head and opened his mouth.

"Brother Zhiyuan, I didn't come today to catch up on the past, I have official business!"

"Okay, okay, then drink it another day, drink it another day!"

"Well, I will definitely accompany Brother Zhiyuan to get drunk another day!"

Feng Jiutian saw that Liu Zhiyuan was so hospitable, and knew that he must not be a person with a small belly, so he gave Liu Zhiyuan a salute, and his expression was slightly apologetic.

"Lord Liu, I'm offended!"

Liu Zhiyuan was stunned for a moment when he heard this, then looked Feng Jiutian up and down, and finally smiled.

"Hahaha, aren't you the one who robbed the congratulatory gift that day?"

"Yes, exactly what to do next!"

Instead of getting angry, Liu Zhiyuan clapped his hands and laughed.

Feng Jiutian also laughed with him inexplicably.

"I have heard for a long time that Lord Liu knows right from wrong, and I don't want to be so benevolent!"

"Haha, if this official is not a person from the Great Jin, he will definitely be the first to rob the congratulatory gift!"

He Ning glared at Liu Zhiyuan, and then looked at a few people at the door, Liu Zhiyuan saw this, waved his hand, and asked these people to retreat for the time being.

"Brother Zhiyuan, King Han came here just now, what happened?"

"Brother Grade, I'm also confused about this matter! He rambled and didn't do anything serious. ”

"Is it just for small talk that the prince came to the door so early?"

"This ...... Don't hide it from my brother, King Han didn't know where to get a treasure map of the last emperor. ”

"Brother Zhiyuan, could it be that King Han is here for the treasure map?"

"Yes, King Han became extremely excited when he heard that his younger brother also had a treasure map of the Last Emperor!"

"Brother Zhiyuan, does King Han still want to share the treasure with you privately?"

"Haha, the money of the people of the world, the people of the world will share it, why not?"

"Your move is disloyal to the Great Jin and disloyal to Your Majesty!"

"Who dares to say that Lao Tzu is disloyal to Da Jin, Lao Tzu killed him!"

Liu Zhiyuan's eyes couldn't help but widen angrily when he heard this, and his big hand slammed on the table, and the originally sturdy wooden table collapsed under his palm.

"Alas...... Brother Zhiyuan, with all due respect, it is absolutely impossible to share the treasure privately. ”

He Ning let out a long sigh, but his expression was still unfazed. Liu Zhiyuan felt a little rude and sat down slowly.

"Brother Grade, what I just said was not aimed at you, please forgive me!"

"We have been brothers for many years, how can I blame you?"

"It's rare for a grade brother to come to the door, I don't know what's going on?"

"Brother Zhiyuan, how much do you know about the death of the first emperor?"

"The first emperor has been suffering from heart disease for a long time, and he must have died of heart disease."

"Brother Zhiyuan has been absent from the court for a long time, and he also knows that the first emperor died of heart disease, and the news is really well-informed!"

"What a good understanding! I also just heard what King Han said. ”

"But I heard that the first emperor died of murder!"

"What? Who would dare to kill the first emperor with such a big dog? ”

"Haha, it's just a rumor, I can't do it."

"Whether it's rumors or facts, whoever dares to kill the first emperor, I have to chop him!"

He Ning saw that Liu Zhiyuan's expression was sincere, and it didn't seem to be a fraud at all, so he was silently relieved.

Immediately, he stood up, saluted Liu Zhiyuan, and slowly spoke.

"Brother Zhiyuan, I still have official business, and I will leave for the time being!"

"Brother Grade just came and left, could it be that the younger brother didn't take good care of him?"

"No, Your Majesty has limited me to three days to solve the case, and I don't dare to delay for a moment!"

"That being the case, I'll send my brother!"

Liu Zhiyuan stood up as he said and sent the three of them out of the house.

Out of Liu's Mansion, Feng Jiutian looked at He Ning, and then looked at Liu Wenshu.

"Do you think what Liu Zhiyuan said is true or false?"

Liu Wenshu spoke in the tone of a young man and an old man, and opened his mouth without thinking.

"Brother Feng, do you think that he is a rough person who can tell lies?"

"Yes, Brother Zhiyuan is honest, he can't rub sand in his eyes, and he will never lie."

"Well, I guess this matter should have nothing to do with him."

"Master, shouldn't we go and meet Sang Weihan next?"

"Haha, you're right, let's go to Sangfu."

Prime Minister's House, Meeting Room.

Sang Weihan sat down with the others.

He Ning and Sang Weihan glanced at each other and smiled at each other.

Neither of them spoke, and the atmosphere was a little awkward for a while.

After a long time, Sang Weihan cleared his throat before opening his mouth with a smile.

"And my lord, although you and I are ministers in the same palace, but we have never been in contact, I don't know ...... today."

"The lower official is for the death of the first emperor, and he has come to consult Master Sang."

"Oh? Is there anything suspicious about the death of the first emperor? Didn't he die of a heart disease? ”

"There are rumors inside and outside the palace that the first emperor was murdered."

"Is there such a thing? I think I'm well-informed, but I haven't heard of it. ”

"Then Lord Yisan, is there any doubt about the cause of the emperor's death?"

"Haha, I don't know that Lord He is a detective in the world, why did you come to ask the old man?"

"I just met with Lord Liu Zhiyuan, and he said that Lord Sang must know the inside story!"

"Zhiyuan has been away from the court for a long time, with the wisdom of Lord He, can you believe his words?"

"Lord Sang has always been clever, don't you have a little opinion on this?"

"Haha, everyone has a good go, I am not as good as Qing in terms of strategy, and I am not as good as Qing in solving cases!"

"Thank you Lord Sang for your praise, the lower officials are ashamed and dare not be, how can they be compared with the Sanda people!"

"Haha, other people don't dare to say it, but you and adults deserve it, you deserve it!"

"Hahaha, then the lower official won't bother the adults, and will leave first."

"Okay, go slowly with the adults, and I won't send it."

Sang Weihan looked at He Ning, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

The three of them left the Prime Minister's Mansion, looked at each other and were silent.

They all had a lesson in the treacherous and cunning Sang Weihan.

Seeing that the two of them looked a little unhappy, Liu Wenshu couldn't help but smile and said.

"Master, you have also seen it, Sang Weihan is really unfathomable!"

"That's right, no matter what the old man says, he can also respond to all changes with the same.

"Sang Weihan has all the answers, but except for picking himself, he didn't say a word useful."

Feng Jiutian was thinking about it at this time, and he slowly replenished.

He Ning Wenyan nodded, and his expression changed a little.

"Sonwehr's sleekness is rare in the world.

Feng Jiutian said indignantly, and followed the two of them towards Jing Yanguang's mansion.

The Jing Mansion is very different from the Mulberry Mansion, spacious and luxurious, and the guards are also arrogant.

The guards who went in to report did not return for a long time, making the three of them wait very anxiously.

It was a long time before the guards opened a crack in the door, and the result was that it was gone.

He Ning didn't care if he saw it or not, and walked towards Jingfu.

Seeing this, the guards at the door hurriedly intervened to stop him, but He Ning took out the imperial gold medal from his waist.

No matter how high the official is, no matter how great the power is, it is insignificant compared to the emperor, and with the gold medal in hand, it is easy to see the emperor, not to mention the mere Jing Yanguang?

The guards at the door didn't dare to stop it anymore, and they didn't dare to let it go casually, so they had to go to the housekeeper.

The housekeeper was also shocked when he saw the gold medal, so he had to lead the three of them to the backyard martial arts arena.

The Military General's Mansion is different from the Wenxiang Mansion, which makes people instinctively shake their spirits.

The arena was filled with strong bows and arrows, and there were several iron shields a hundred paces away.

In the middle of the field stood a big man, surrounded by soldiers.

"Hahaha, I've seen Lord Jing, and the officials are reasonable!"

He Ning smiled and bowed deeply, and his expression was full of reverence.

"Humph! He Ning, you dare to trespass into the official mansion, what a boldness! ”

Jing Yanguang snorted coldly, and slowly turned around, with a look of disdain.

"Please also ask Lord Jing to forgive me, the next official is for ......"

"You mad dog, you have broken into the official's mansion!"

"Please calm your anger, I don't know if you know something inside......"

"What? Do you still suspect that this official is a murderer? ”

"The lower official doesn't dare, the lower official has no such intention, it's just ......"

"It's just what, don't be noisy here, get out!"

"Lord Jing, can you let the subordinate finish speaking?"

"Can't! If you stay in my house for a few more moments, the more suspicious this official will be! ”

"But the case of the death of the first emperor is not trivial, and I still want Lord Jing to ......"

"Get out of the house for me, otherwise this iron shield will be an example for you!"

I saw that the big man casually picked up a hard bow beside him and skillfully mounted a sharp arrow.

"Whoosh!" With a soft sound, sharp arrows were fired. The arrow was extremely fast and accurate, and in an instant the arrow sank into the iron shield.

Seeing this, He Ning's face changed slightly, and he had to take out the gold medal again.

"Lord Jing, Your Majesty's gold medal is here, you ......"

"Hahaha, Your Majesty is supported by this official, and you still want to use him to suppress me?"

Jing Yanguang was not afraid when he saw the gold medal, but he smiled and looked up to the sky and laughed wildly.

He Ning was annoyed in his heart, but his face didn't show it at all, and he wanted to continue to ask.

Feng Jiutian couldn't stand it anymore, and pulled out the Liuyun Sword in an instant.

"Jing Yanguang, don't bully others, you want to die and live to say something!"

"Hahaha, where did the kid come from, and he deserves to speak wildly here?"

"You don't care where it came from, my patience is limited, it's best not to let me count to three!"

"Haha, even if you count to three hundred, three thousand, what do you dare to do to this official?"

Feng Jiutian laughed when he heard this, and laughed contemptuously.

He took a hundred steps back, the Flowing Cloud Sword in his hand full of murderous aura and indifference.

Immediately, the Liuyun Sword flew out of his hand, and the cold light flashed in the air, as bright as a star!

The brilliance of this sword shook the heavens and the earth, and shook the hearts of everyone in the martial arts arena.

The shadow of the sword only flashed in the air, and in an instant, it completely pierced the indestructible iron shield.

Mo said that he Ning and Liu Wenshu, even the arrogant Jing Yanguang became dumbfounded.

Feng Jiutian was dumbfounded when he saw Jing Yanguang, and laughed even more contemptuously and arrogantly.

"This ...... This young man, this official ...... The official has eyes but no beads. ”

"Then you can remember a truth for me!"

"What's the truth? I'd like to hear from you. ”

"That is, there are mountains outside the mountains, and there are people outside the people!"

"The young man has to learn a lesson! It's just that the cause of the emperor's death is really unknown! ”

Jing Yanguang waved to the housekeeper as he spoke, and said with some trepidation.

"Jingfu, do what Shaoxia said, carve a stone tablet and put it in the martial arts arena!"

The butler nodded hurriedly when he heard this, turned around and walked quickly to arrange.

He Ning smiled at this time and bowed to Jing Yanguang, looking a little apologetic.

"The little nephew is young and frivolous, please don't blame Lord Jing."

"And my lord, your virtuous nephew is really good, really good!"

"Thank you Lord Jing for the compliment, I thanked my little nephew."

He Ning said and gave a deep salute, smiled and led the two out of Jingfu.

As soon as the three of them left Jingfu, Liu Wenshu took the lead in opening his mouth with a smile.

"Master, looking down, what Jing Yanguang said is definitely not a lie."

"Haha, Feng Xian's nephew is so skilled, he doesn't dare to lie if he has ten guts."

Liu Wenshu also smiled at this time, and his eyes were full of admiration when he looked at Feng Jiutian.

The three of you said a word, and they joked with each other.

Suddenly, He Ning's face changed, and his expression was full of doubts.

"Master, did you think of something?"

Liu Wenshu and Ning Liangjiu were silent for a long time, and couldn't help asking.

"Look at the sky now, when is it?"

The two of them looked up at the sky according to what He Ning said.

I saw that the sun above my head had already set to the west, and the sky seemed a little dark.

Feng Jiutian saw that it was getting late, and he couldn't help but sigh, with a smile on his face.

He Ning sighed heavily at this time, looking a little lonely.

"Alas, I visited all the way today, but there was no result, so what can I do?"

At this time, even Liu Wenshu, who has always been optimistic, actually put away his smile.

The mood of the three of them was like the sky at this time, although there was light, it was already dim.

They were originally walking in the direction of Hefu, but suddenly He Ning stood again.

"Master, aren't we going home?"

"Well, let's go to a nearby teahouse and sit down, maybe we can hear some useful clues."

"What the master said is extremely true, always blindly immersed in it, it is not a good law, it is better to change your brain."

Sweetwater Lane is brightly lit and full of traffic.

The three of them chose the most personal teahouse and walked in.

As soon as they sat down, He Ning called Xiao Er over.

"Little Er, we have something to ask you."

He Ning said and took out the silver from his arms and slapped it heavily on the table.

Xiao Er looked at the three people's dresses, and then looked at the silver, and was busy smiling.

"A few guests, what do you want to ask, I will know everything!"

He Ning smiled when he saw this, and said a little mysteriously.

"As long as it's an anecdote in Bianzhou City, you can say whatever you know."

"Master Ke, you are asking the right person, there is nothing I don't know about Bianzhou City!"

"You know what to say, don't sell it here!"

Feng Jiutian said impatiently.

"Master Ke, don't worry! A few days ago, the big yellow dog of the old Zhang family gave birth to a big cat......"

Liu Wenshu smiled when he heard this, and sprayed Xiao Er's face with tea in his mouth.

"Haha, don't talk nonsense in front of me!"

"Master Ke, I really didn't talk nonsense, I don't believe you go to Zhang's house to ask!"

Liu Wenshu was about to joke with Xiao Er again, and opened his mouth with a serious tone.

"Have you heard that the first emperor died of murder?"

"Master Ke, the first emperor died of heart disease, not murder."

He Ning nodded and continued to speak.

"Do you know of any strange things happening in the city lately?"

Xiao Er thought about it for a long time, and suddenly slapped his thigh excitedly.

"By the way, I heard that two years ago, someone bought a shop at a high price in Sweetwater Lane."

"What's so strange about buying a shop? Is it the paper money that is spent? ”

When Liu Wenshu heard this, he couldn't help laughing, and stepped forward again to joke.

"Although it wasn't paper money, the house has been empty for two years!"

"Don't make it up!"

Feng Jiutian glared at Xiao Er as he spoke, and was about to put away the silver for He Ning. ”

Xiao Er saw that Feng Jiutian was going to collect the money, so he hurriedly said quickly.

"Sweetwater Lane is expensive, and the housing prices are outrageous!"

He Ning Wenyan couldn't help frowning slightly, and a look of incomprehension appeared on his face.

"Someone bought a house in Sweetwater Lane at a sky-high price, but it was empty for two whole years?"

"That's right, master! Isn't that a strange thing, you say! ”

"It's weird! I bought a house at a sky-high price, but I didn't open a store but it was always empty? ”

"But no, this person hasn't been thinking about how to get back to his roots!"

Xiao Erjian and Ning finally became interested in what they said, and their eyes were about to bloom with joy.

"Where is the man who bought the house now, is he dead?"

"No, absolutely not! He was seen five days ago! ”

"Oh! Where did you see it? ”

"Where else could it be? Through the window of that house, of course. ”

"So sure? Could it be that what characteristics does he look like? ”

"Yes! He was short, thin, lame with a scar on his forehead. ”

He Ning smiled and picked up the silver and looked at Xiao Er again.

"Want this silver? Then take us to see the house! ”

Xiao Er was a little embarrassed at first, but in order to get the silver, he had to take them there.

He Ning and a few people followed Xiao Er and soon arrived at the most prosperous area of Sweet Water Lane.

He Ning has been going back and forth a lot of times, everything has long been strange, Feng Jiutian has no intention of wandering, but Liu Wenshu sees everything fresh.

The three of them had to walk and watch, and after a while they stopped in front of a porter.

The lights on both sides of Sweetwater Lane are brilliant, but this house is the only one that has no light.

"A few guests, this is the house!"

Xiao Er's expression was a little nervous at this time, and his eyes looked at the house like a ghost.

He Ning saw that Xiao Er was a little afraid, and couldn't help but smile and take out the silver and put it in his hand.

Xiao Er took the silver and thanked him, and then ran away quickly.

Feng Jiutian and Liu Wenshu saw that Xiao Er was so embarrassed, and the two laughed at the same time.

"When...... While...... When ......"

He Ning walked to the door and knocked heavily on the door.

After a long time, there was still no sound in the room.

"Uncle He, there should be no one in the room, should we go in."

Feng Jiutian looked at He Ning, and his tone seemed a little hesitant.

He Ning looked at Feng Jiutian and Liu Wenshu, thought for a moment, and nodded.

"Virtuous nephew, be careful, don't fall for the gangster's plot!"

Feng Jiutian bowed slightly, raised a palm and slammed open the wooden door in front of him.

The moment the wooden door of the room was opened, a puff of dust rose.

"Ahem...... Ahem......"

Before the three of them were ready, they choked on the dust and coughed.

Liu Wenshu sneezed and said to He Ning forcibly.

"Master, the room is dirty like this, no one has been here for a long time."

He Ning Wenyan shook his head and pointed to the messy ground.

The two of them looked carefully in the direction of He Ning's finger.

They saw a few clear lines of footprints on the dusty ground.

"It seems that Xiao Er is right, the owner should have been here not long ago!"

Liu Wenshu is still so clever, and Ning Wenyan is noncommittal.

The three of them took a closer look in the room.

The structure of this house is the same as that of a normal shop, and there is no difference in sight.

But what catches the eye, in addition to the dust that fills the house, are the large and small beech ornaments, some of which have been deformed and cracked in the dry climate of the north.

Feng Jiutian couldn't help but be stunned when he saw these ornaments, and his expression fell into contemplation.

"Brother Feng, is there anything wrong with these ornaments?"

Liu Wenshu saw that Feng Jiutian's expression was different, and he couldn't help but ask curiously.

"I think I've seen this wood somewhere, but I can't remember it......"

"Haha, this kind of wood is called beech, and there are so many of them in the south!"

"But I definitely didn't see it in the south!"

"Not in the South?"

"Yes, absolutely not!"

"But the north doesn't produce beech wood at all, how can you ......?"

He Ning heard the conversation between the two and walked over slowly.

"Young Master Liu, beech wood may not only be seen in the south, right?"

"Master, this kind of wood is fundamentally ...... in the north"

Liu Wenshu looked at the ornaments in front of him and was a little speechless.

"I remember! I remember! ”

Feng Jiutian suddenly remembered the village of no return where he saw the blood beech, the mysterious village of no return.

He became a little excited at this point, and his eyes were full of brilliance.

"But the last time I saw beech wood was red, blood-red."

Liu Wenshu thought about it when he heard this, and then nodded slightly.

"Blood beech wood is also available, but it is a hundred times more expensive than ordinary beech wood!"

"How much silver does it cost to make a bookcase of blood beech?"

"Well...... At least nearly a hundred taels. ”

"So expensive? That would be weird! ”

Liu Wenshu and He Ning hurriedly asked, but Feng Jiutian was unheard.

The three of them searched the store carefully, but found nothing, and they went to the backyard to check again, but still found nothing.

Feng Jiutian and Liu Wenshu lost their patience and prepared to leave here.

But He Ning suddenly laughed, and laughed extremely happily.

"Hahaha, come and see, what is this!"

When the two of them heard this, they were both interested again, and they hurriedly came over.

He Ning stood in the courtyard of the backyard, staring at the sand on the ground.

The two of them followed his gaze and saw a stump of flowers and trees buried in the sand.

Feng Jiutian hurriedly squatted down and dug the sand on the ground with his hands.

Soon a small patch of sand was dug up, revealing a branch inside, which was broken, the flowers and leaves were basically dry, and there was not a single flower on the branch.

Feng Jiutian didn't know this flower, and was about to touch it with his hand, but was stopped by Liu Wenshu.

Liu Wenshu looked at the plant, and there was some fear in his eyes.

"Brother Liu, what's wrong with this flower branch?"

Feng Jiutian saw that Liu Wenshu's expression was abnormal, and he couldn't help but ask.

"This is an oleander, born in the south, the whole body is highly poisonous, don't touch it!"

Liu Wenshu saw that Feng Jiutian was puzzled, and hurriedly explained.

Feng Jiutian was stunned when he heard this, and couldn't help but continue to ask with some puzzlement.

"Brother Liu, how come I've never heard of this plant?"

"Brother Feng, you have lived in Kunlun Mountain since you were a child, and it is normal that you have never seen this thing."

He Ning Wenyan bowed slightly, and then fell into deep contemplation.

"Beech...... Oleander...... South...... Don ......"

He muttered some words to himself, and his face became more and more ugly.

"Master, what did you think of? Could it be that this matter has something to do with Don? ”

and Ning Wen listened to the conversation between the two, and then slowly came back to his senses.

"That's right! This matter must be Li Yu's conspiracy! ”

"What? Shi Jingjiao was poisoned by the Tang people? ”

"Maybe, but the old man isn't sure ......"

He Ning took the two of them out and explained to Liu Wenshu.

"Jin is a Khitan vassal state, and if we want to get rid of control, we must become strong......"

"Master, I understand! Jin is to strengthen himself, so he intends to annex the Tang Kingdom! ”

"Yes, only by annexing the rich Tang can Jin turn over!"

He Ning said categorically, frowning tightly.

"Then Li Yu sent someone to poison Shi Jingjiao, just to make Jin take care of himself!"

Liu Wenshu also suddenly brightened up at this time, and his expression seemed very excited.

The three of them went out of the room, and Feng Jiutian and Liu Wenshu subconsciously headed south.

He Ning's footsteps are firmly moving towards the north.

"Master, aren't we going back to the mansion?"

"Yes, Uncle He, are you making a mistake?"

He Ning stopped and thought about it, and finally gritted his teeth.

"Let's go to Fuxing Palace first."

"What! Going to Fuxing Palace? ”

"Master, Shi Jingjiao's body is now parked in Fuxing Palace, could it be that you want to ......"

"That's right, for today's plan, there is only an autopsy!"

"Although the emperor has the right to act cheaply, I am afraid that the autopsy will be ......"

"Resisting the decree is death, bullying the king is also death, and I can't control it much!"

He Ning's eyes were firm, and his tone did not allow anyone to disobey.

Feng Jiutian nodded approvingly, but Liu Wenshu could only shake his head and smile bitterly.

The Royal Palace is always the most mysterious place.

During the filial piety period of the first emperor, the palace was no longer peaceful in the singing and dancing of the past, and the Fuxing Palace was even more deathly silent.

A gust of north wind blew, blowing on the faces of the three of Hening, piercing and gloomy.

Feng Jiutian wanted to use the gold medal to open the gate of Fuxing Palace, but was stopped by He Ning.

"Virtuous nephew, it's time for you to show off your skills."

"Uncle He, if we don't go through the main entrance, do we want to climb over the wall and go in?"

"Yes, what the master said is extremely reasonable."

"Brother Liu, do you think so too?"

"Brother Feng, do you think the eunuch guarding the spirit will let us in?"

"Well, I'm afraid it won't let us in."

"That's right, so why should we eat this closed door?"

He Ning saw that Liu Wenshu was only right about one point, so he added it.

"If the guards find out that someone has come, we can also assume that we don't know."

Feng Jiutian saw that what the two of them said was extremely reasonable, and his expression instantly became bright. He immediately looked at the palace wall, and then at He Ning.

"If I take two people to climb over such a high palace wall at the same time, it is inevitable that there will be mistakes."

"Brother Feng, you just need to take Uncle and Uncle with you!"

Liu Wenshu said as he touched his toes lightly on the ground, and the person had risen several feet. He easily climbed over the palace wall and landed on the ground silently.

Feng Jiutian couldn't help but smile appreciatively when he saw that Liu Wenshu's light skills were so outstanding.

Immediately, he also picked up and condensed, and easily climbed over the palace wall.

Fuxing Palace, Yonghe Palace.

At this time, the red wheel is already falling in the west, and the waning moon is rising in the east.

The hazy moonlight, through the branches outside the window, slanted into the Yonghe Temple.

The candle flame in the hall was extremely faint, and it was mottled by the moonlight.

Through the faint candlelight and moonlight, a huge coffin could be faintly seen.

In front of the coffin, there were several eunuchs who were guarding the spirit, kneeling crookedly on the ground, apparently tired.

He Ning looked at Liu Wenshu, "Young Master Liu, the next thing depends on you." ”

Liu Wenshu understood, took out a very thin bamboo pipe from his arms, and poked it into the window lattice paper.

As a puff of smoke blew into the Yonghe Palace, several eunuchs who were guarding the spirits fell into a deep sleep.

Seeing this, Feng Jiutian smiled and said, "Brother Liu, you really have you!" Looks like you're here prepared tonight. ”

Liu Wenshu also smiled at Feng Jiutian, "Hehe, when people walk in the rivers and lakes, they must always stay behind!" ”

He Ning ignored the jokes of the two and walked straight towards the coffin.

The coffin is made of sandalwood and is also engraved with exquisite dragon patterns.

At this time, He Ning and the three of them were standing next to the coffin, preparing to open the coffin.

After a moment, He Ning knelt down and whispered.

"Emperor Xian, in order to find out the truth, the old minister is now going to open the coffin for an autopsy, and I hope you will forgive me."

He Ning whispered to himself as he kowtowed three more times to the coffin.

Then, he got up and nodded to Feng Jiutian and Liu Wenshu.

The two immediately understood and removed the heavy coffin lid.

The moment the lid of the coffin was opened, a faint smell of corpses came out.

He and Ning Jiu were accustomed to dealing with corpses, but the other two almost threw up.

He Ning couldn't help but laugh when he saw this.

"Haha, you can't stand such a faint corpse smell?"

Feng Jiutian nodded heavily when he heard this, and forced his mouth to answer.

"Although I have killed countless people, I have never smelled the smell of corpses!"

"Haha, I'm afraid that the virtuous nephew will have to deal with corpses in the future!"

Feng Jiutian nodded when he heard this, and tried to hold his breath.

The two carefully placed the body on the ground and stripped off all their clothes.

Although Liu Wenshu understands medicine, like Feng Jiutian, he doesn't know anything about autopsies.

Only after He Ning saw the corpse of the first emperor, his expression became a little complicated.

He crouched down and touched the body from head to toe, touching it very carefully and looking at it very carefully, looking at every part no less than ten times.

In the end, he shook his head, helplessly.

"Nephew, do you have knives, daggers, or anything like that?"

Feng Jiutian shook his head when he heard this, and shook the Liuyun Sword in his hand.

"All I have is this sword, and nothing else."

Liu Wenshu hurriedly searched for it, and then smiled bitterly.

"Master, I originally brought a knife, but I left in a hurry and landed on your house."

He Ningjian didn't bring anything to use, so he had to sigh.

After a long time, Liu Wenshu's eyes suddenly lit up.

"Master, do you remember one thing?"

"What's the matter?"

"Yesterday, Father-in-law Zhang said that Shi Jingjiao ate a plate of dim sum before he died."

After listening to Liu Wenshu's words, He Ning's eyes couldn't help but glow.

"That's right, Shi Jingjiao is over fifty years old, and there must be a gap between his teeth!"

The three of them immediately pried open Shi Jingjiao's tightly closed teeth.

He Ning looked carefully into his mouth, and every tooth could be seen clearly.

At first he was a little disappointed, but after a while, his eyes lit up again!

He didn't care about the filth and smell of the corpse, and stuck his finger inside.

When he pulled out his hand, he caught an unchewed petal between his big and forefinger.

"Young Master Liu, help me see what kind of flower this is."

Liu Wenshu hurriedly took the petals from He Ning's hand and examined them carefully.

The petals were mostly rotten, and only the shape and color could be faintly discerned.

After a long while, Liu Wenshu said in a very positive tone.

"It's oleander!"

He Ning smiled and nodded, his expression full of admiration and appreciation.

"Liu Gongzi is really powerful, such a broken petal can be recognized!"

He suddenly remembered the oleander stump in Sweetwater Alley, and his expression became extremely solemn.

Feng Jiutian also became interested in oleander, and asked out.

"Brother Liu, do you know how toxic this substance is?"

"Its substances are toxic all over the body, dizziness and nausea if you eat less, and heart disease can be caused by eating more."

"Such broken petals, are you sure you read them right?"

"Absolutely! I could never be mistaken! ”

He Ning nodded, his expression becoming more excited than ever.

"Hahaha, this case is about to be solved! It's about to break! ”

Feng Jiutian and Liu Wenshu were also very happy to see this, and they both showed extremely happy smiles.

The red sun rises again, and the sky is white.

He Ning took out the handkerchief from his arms and carefully wrapped the petals.

Then they closed Shi Jingjiao's mouth again and put him back in the coffin.

After doing all this, the three of them quietly moved out of Fuxing Palace.

They did a lot of things that night, but it looked like nothing had happened.

It was as if everything last night was just a dream, a dream that would never be known......
