Chapter 188: Suspected murderer
When Uncle Hua heard this, he immediately glanced at the words under the magnifying glass, and said busily: "I see, I can't see it roughly, but when I look at it with this magnifying glass, the two words 'one thousand' are clearly added by others, and they are not the same as my handwriting at all." β
Yun Ruoyue said: "Uncle Hua, what kind of ink do you often use?" β
"I use the highest grade pine smoke ink, and when I use this ink, I also have a habit of adding two drops of white wine to the ink to make the ink more fragrant, mellow, and smooth, so that the ink is not easy to stink. And the ink strip is delicate, and the writing will not be divided, and it will be clean and neat. Look at the two new words, this one is the garbage ink used, this ink is dry and hard, and it contains a lot of large particles of impurities, which is far worse than my ink. Uncle Hua said angrily.
"Really, let me smell it." After the housekeeper finished speaking, he approached the two words curiously, and when he smelled them, he immediately wrinkled his face in disgust, "These two new words stink, and they are not good ink when they smell it." β
Then, he sniffed the other words on the ledger, and suddenly his face was relaxed, "Wow, the other handwriting is so fragrant, not only the pine fragrance, but also the wine fragrance, Niangniang, I'm sure that Uncle Hua was framed, this is obviously someone changed 'one hundred two' to 'one thousand one hundred two", Uncle Hua was wronged. β
"Then you can smell Li Xiucai's words again." After Yun Ruoyue finished speaking, she handed the few account books written by Li Xiucai to the housekeeper.
At this moment, Li Xiucai's pupils dilated rapidly, and his heart jumped up.
Nangong Rou also glared at Yun Ruoyue fiercely, and a cold sweat broke out on her face.
"Princess, what do you mean, you are suspicious of my cousin?" Nangong Rou couldn't hold back and asked coldly.
mark(βzhongβ);
"Yes, I suspect that your cousin made this fake account, and he added this word, because his account book also has the same smell of stinky ink." Yun Ruoyue raised her eyebrows and said.
The housekeeper saw that Yun Ruoyue now had real power, so he quickly took the account books with the wind and the rudder, leaned his face to the account books, closed his eyes, and sniffed them carefully.
When he heard this, he was frightened.
He still held back his nausea, swept around the account book with Yun Ruoyue's magnifying glass, and finally quickly threw away the account book, and said with a disgusted face: "This ink stinks, it stinks like those two words." Moreover, after Li Xiucai's handwriting was enlarged, he actually loved to divide the branches as much as the two newly added characters, seeing that the ink was rough, blurred and broken, obviously using the same kind of garbage ink. β
When Li Xiucai heard this, his face turned white with fright, and he hurriedly said: "You slandered me, just like ink, and you planted the blame for embezzlement of silver?" When Uncle Hua embezzled public funds, I hadn't entered the palace yet, how could it be that I did it? Princess Niangniang, I'm not convinced. β
"Maybe someone took out the ledger and asked you to add words to the outside? Otherwise, how do you explain that the ink you use is exactly the same as the ink used for the new word? Yun Ruoyue sneered.
"I, how do I know that this ink was bought in the study, maybe the person who added the word used the same ink as me?" After Li Xiucai finished speaking, he glanced at Nangong Rou with a weak heart.
How did he know that the princess was so powerful that she could judge the difference in handwriting by ink and taste.
"Really? If you don't tell the truth, then I'll report to the official immediately, and ask someone from the government to go to the study where you bought ink, and see how many people have bought the same ink as you recently, if not, then I'm sorry. Yun Ruoyue sneered.
