Chapter 113: Qixiang Case 11

Everyone gathered in the lobby of Jingzhao Mansion, Jingzhao Yin presided over the trial, Qi Ming observed, King Xing obediently sat behind him, and the guards stood next to the brothers.

An official got down on one knee and reported: "Lord Qiyu, the residents in the alley east of the city, we have interrogated, because it was raining heavily last night, and the night guards in the various prefectures did not hear suspicious shouts except for the sound of rain... We also interrogated the people in the other party's mansion, and Fang Gongzi probably returned to the mansion in the third watch, drunk and soaked, and after returning to the mansion, he would..."

Jing Zhaoyin: "What? ”

Official: "Just... I went back to my room to have fun... Listen to the people in the house... Fang Gongzi pampered the two maidservants, the room was noisy, the housekeeper guarded the corridor three zhang away from the bedroom, and heard it most clearly, the other servants in the house were either clear or faintly heard the sound, but Fang Gongzi's personal servant did not hear any sound, because he was sorting out spices and books in the secret room of the study at this time. ”

After the official finished reporting, he stepped forward and saluted: "Lord Qiqi, after inspection, the girl died about three watches..."

Jing Zhaoyin: "That is, it is likely that Fang Gongzi returned to Fang Mansion after the murder and spoiled the maidservant again?" ”

Yan Mo: "This point in time is very vague, it takes time for the murderer to dispose of the corpse, and there will be a lot of blood stains on the cracked corpse... Fang Gongzi returned to Fang's Mansion at this time... Is there any blood on his body? ”

Official: "The subordinates were also suspicious, so they asked the maid who did the laundry, and the clothes that Fang Gongzi had changed had not yet entered the water, and the subordinates checked it, and there were no blood stains." ”

Qi Yun: "Big boss, if you want to prevent bloodstains, there are two ways!" One of them is to take off all your clothes! ”

All:!!!

Qi Yun: "It's summer now, it's not cold when it's all off, and I'll stop in the rain after I'm done!" Huh! Isn't it all washed off! ”

Everyone: "Hmm..."

Qi Yun: "The second way is to put on a waterproof coat, such as a robe made of animal skin, or prepare a set of the same clothes. ”

Kyung Zhao Yin: "Hmm... In this way, Fang Gongzi is suspicious! Why didn't you bring him here? ”

Official errand: "Returning to my lordship, Fang Gongzi was lying on the bed with a pale face, confused, and frightened, his subordinates did not dare to be interrogated at will, if something happened on the road... The impact is not good... He left someone to guard outside the gate of Fangfu. ”

Jing Zhaoyin: "It's not pretending?" ”

The official was embarrassed: "After Fang Gongzi returned to the house, he vomited and diarrhea, this is what his subordinates saw with their own eyes, listening to the people in the house, Fang Gongzi grew up in a incense pot, and he didn't even want to approach the kitchen, and the scene of the crack was indeed for him..."

"So afraid of blood, is he a murderer?" Jing Zhaoyin asked and looked at Yan Mo...

Yan Mo: "There is really no direct evidence pointing to Fang Gongzi right now... And... Fangfu's jar of incense has already been handed over, but how did the jar of incense come from at the scene of the cracked girl? ”

Jing Zhaoyin: "Come on, interrogate the young man." ”

After a short time, Aoki Hui came to the lobby under the leadership of the official messenger

Aoki Teru: "See the prince, the princess, and the princess below." ”

"Someone committed a crime yesterday and killed a girl, and at the scene of the crime, this object was found." Kyo Yoon asked him to hand over the jar of incense to Hui Aoki.

After Aoki Hui took it, he carefully looked at the bottle and can, the dry mud stains outside the bottle concealed part of the color, he opened it and saw that it was empty, and then smelled it, quickly closed the lid and said: "The jar is indeed a jar of incense, but the incense inside is not an agarwood beauty cream!" ”

Yan Mo took all the jars of incense to Aoki Hui through the handkerchief and asked, "Where did these porcelain jars come from?" ”

Aoki Hui: "I got it from the Western Regions, and there shouldn't be one in this color capital..."

Yan Mo: "How many useless ones are left?" ”

Aoki Hui: "There are more than 30 porcelain jars left, all in the courtyard..."

"In other words, this porcelain jar is the jar incense that was sold the day before yesterday?!" Yan Mo pointed to the mud-stained incense jar and said, "Someone replaced the spices inside?!" ”

Teru Aoki: "Exactly. ”

Yan Mo: "You smell it, what are the ingredients?" ”

Aoki Hui picked up the jar and sniffed it quickly, and after taking it away, he tasted back: "Mandala, golden flowers are the main ingredients, as well as sheep flowers, fairies..." I can only tell from the residual smell that there was a misty fragrance in it! ”

Yan Mo: "Brother Aoki, who did the jars of incense sell to, is there a record?" ”

Aoki Hui: "When I sold incense the day before yesterday, the girls and their wives all left their names, hoping that I could provide later skin care consultations, all in that big wooden box." ”

"Bring the wooden box!" Jing Zhaoyin ordered the official mission.

Yan Mo: "Brother Aoki, take a look at these bottles again." ”

Aoki Hui picked up the separately wrapped jar of incense and smelled it, frowned and felt it for a while, then sniffed it closer, and asked, "How can there be the smell of edible sesame oil in this jar of incense?" ”

"Edible sesame oil?" Yan Mo took a closer sniff, and there was a faint hint of the sweet aroma of food...

Teru Aoki: "Hmm... Soybean flour is used here, not vegetable oil extracted from it, and the smell of this edible sesame oil is not like sesame oil..."

When Qi Yun heard this, he also got closer and sniffed carefully: "Hmm... There is indeed an aroma of vegetable oils and fats ... Slightly sweet..."

Yan Mo asked the medical officer and the servant, "When you inspected the canned incense, didn't you find the smell of edible sesame oil?" ”

The medical officer said: "We just checked whether the jar of incense is poisonous, and what are the specific ingredients, it is... I'm sorry I've waited..."

"......" Yan Mo just turned around when he heard a bang!

Teru Aoki fell to the ground because of inhaling incense!

Yan Mo: "Brother Aoki! ”

"Oops! Two masters! "Qi Yun risked catching Aoki Hui's tall body!

Yesterday, the guard didn't care much about Aoki Hui, who had been kneeling on the ground, and today when he saw Yan Mo calling his brother, his heart couldn't help but tighten a little, which reminded him of Zi Kai...

Aoki Hui's beauty with the characteristics of the Western Regions is unforgettable, and the guard rolled his eyes and looked at Qi Ming, but saw that the other party was still smiling and leisurely... Xindao, why didn't Brother Ming report this second master to the palace? Such a special person, it's hard to ignore...

The medical officer hurriedly stepped forward to check, and after checking the pulse, he said to Yan Mozuo: "It's just that I've fallen asleep, and it's okay." ”

Yan Mo breathed a sigh of relief and said, "There is a labor medical officer." ”

Brother Aoki? Jingzhao Yin said in his heart, it turned out that it was not Qing Gongzi, it was Qing Mu Gongzi... Well? Isn't the princess's brother the prince's brother-in-law?

"Oops!" Jing Zhaoyin shouted, "Quick! Good life serves Aoki Childe!! Add futon! Oh no! Change the bed, change the bed! Equipped with two fans!! Don't be lazy!! ”

"Yes!" The officials are trying to take Teru Aoki down...

"Wait!" Yan Mo said with a straight face, "Adults don't have to make him special, just be safe and sound with you." ”

The officials looked at Jing Zhaoyin in embarrassment, but saw their own adults cast a customary look and said, "Be safe and sound, do you understand?" ”

The officials looked at each other and said, "Understood! So he went down with Aoki Hui.

After the wooden box arrived, Yan Mo found a list and handed it to the master who recorded it: "Copy a copy to me." ”

The master made a copy of the list in three or two clicks, and Yan Mo took the list and prepared to put it away...

A hand stretched out, Qi Ming gracefully took down the list and said, "Recycle the remaining jars of incense, and leave this matter to this king." ”

Yan Mo trusted the efficiency of the palace even more, so he didn't have much, and came to Jing Zhaoyin and said, "My lord! Now that the murderer is unknown, it is not appropriate to startle the snake, continue to monitor the Fang Mansion, as well as the residents in the east lane of the city, and their every move must be reported! ”

"Yes! Princess! Jing Zhao Yin Ying turned to the group of officials and shouted, "Did you hear it?" Know what to do? ”

"Know!!" The officials sent back!

Yan Mo then said to Jing Zhaoyin: "Let the ladies of the Fang Mansion come to the backyard, I will let them take a good look at Qing Yu's corpse." ”

"Yes, Princess." Jing Zhao Yin said.

"You are not allowed to come with you." Yan Mo said behind him.

Three Brothers: "......"

In the backyard, several ladies came to the door of the morgue under the leadership of the officials, because they knew that there were corpses parked inside, they were reluctant to step in, and they were forced to enter by the officials...

Yan Mo and Qi Yun stood side by side, because they couldn't tell who they were, so they frowned and said, "Let's report their names first, where are they from?" ”

After a moment of silence, the ladies reported their names...

Mrs. Blue: "The concubine was originally from Mingzhou, called Si Indi." ”

Mrs. Liu Mei: "The concubine was originally from Jinzhou, called Meng Zhen'er. ”

Mrs. Fairy: "Concubine, a native of the capital, is called Xiangling." ”

Mrs. Plump: "Concubine, originally from Liangzhou, called Lu Yingying." ”

Yan Mo glanced at Qing Yu and asked, "What about her?" ”

The blue-clothed Si Di said: "Qingyu's surname is Wu, and he was originally from Qizhou. ”

After Qi Yun and Yan Mo glanced at each other, they spoke: "The jar of incense contains strange flowers, first Qing Yu was poisoned and died, and then Fang Gongzi was ill... Hey...", he pretended to be very sorry, "I'm afraid you'll be the ones who will suffer next..."

"What?!" Si Di shuddered in horror, "We... Poisoned?! She looked at the corners of her dirty skirt and said uncomfortably, "No wonder I feel uncomfortable all the time!" It turned out to be poisoning! ”

"Rokuro! How is he? Is the poisoning deep? Is there an antidote?! Xiangling asked nervously!

Meng Zhen'er: "Woo woo... The concubine is no longer alive! Anyway, if you're poisoned, you're going to die... Without Rokuro, the concubine won't live! ”

Lu Yingying: "...... How good is that... Doctor! Call the doctor! ”

Yan Mo: "So, have you all used jars of incense?!" ”

Ladies: "......"

Yan Mo: "Why haven't you used it?" ”

Si Di glanced at Yan Mo and lowered his eyes: "... In fact, we tried it a little bit, and after a night, the fragrance was gone... It's almost the same as never used it... Light Feather died for no reason... We were afraid of being implicated, so we didn't use it..."

Yan Mo: "You use your own jars of incense?" ”

The ladies looked at each other a few times and replied in unison, "Yes." ”

Si Indi: "Liulang basically keeps the rain and dew evenly with us, and the things he sends are all for each person, so as not to cause disputes... It's just that relatively speaking, Rokuro is more fond of light feathers..."

Yan Mo: "Then I have to ask?" When you are having fun with Fang Gongzi, do you have any special bed games? ”

The ladies blushed...

Yan Mo: "For example, pinching each other and playing? ”

Si Di rolled his eyes a few times, and said shyly: "Sometimes Liulang does like to play like this... However, on a few occasions, the concubine also scratched Rokuro..."

Yan Mo: "How did you catch it?" ”

"It's just grabbing Rokuro's arm..."Si Indigo said as he moved, "The concubine didn't pay attention, and sometimes she left finger prints..."

Yan Mo: "Will Gongzi Fang pinch your neck?" ”

Si Yi pondered: "... Sometimes, the side... Touching and pinching...", her voice became more and more...

Yan Mo: "You are all the same? ”

Zhong Furu nodded...

Yan Mo: "Was there a time when you were almost strangled to death?" ”

After the ladies looked at each other a few times, they shook their heads...

Yan Mo lifted the white cloth covering the body of Light Feather and let the ladies see... They dodged, peeked a few times, and then looked away... I can't bear to look at it...

"Have we been poisoned? Could it be the same as Light Feather..."Si Di asked tentatively...

The bottle body of the jar incense is the same color, and it is easy to replace... Yan Mo thought so, and said: "The jar of incense itself contains the poison of strange flowers, because you use it less, the toxicity does not occur, and the light feather is used too much, and you will die directly..."

Several ladies glanced at each other several times, there was a hint in their eyes that they had nothing to do with themselves, and there were also suspicions Don't be vigilant, they were silent for a long time, no one spoke...

“... Okay..."Yan Mo pretended to be helpless, and wanted Qi Yun to stretch out his hand and say, "After all, it was the jar of incense that poisoned Qing Yu, you are just suspicious, and we can't see death without saving..."

"......" After the ladies took the medicine bottle and took a pill each, they found that the bottle was empty...

"Why not? What about Rokuro?! "Dream is really in a hurry!

"Don't worry, Fang Gongzi has already eaten it." Yan Mo soothed, "You go back, remember, don't look for doctors and Jianghu Langzhong to prescribe medicine indiscriminately, the medicinal properties will only aggravate the spread of toxins, return to Fangfu and wait for the antidote." ”

"Yes." All the ladies saluted.

In the carriage on the return journey, Qi Ming sat on the main seat, Yan Mo and King Xing sat on both sides, Qi Yun sat on King Xing's side, and Jin Wei sat on Yan Mo's side.

Qi Yun asked Yan Mo indifferently: "Big boss, can you deceive those ladies with croton pills?" ”

Yan Mo: "The official sent a report that Fang Gongzi vomited and diarrhea because he had seen blood, and when they returned to Fang Mansion, I am afraid that all their thoughts are on Fang Gongzi, how can they pay attention to whether they are poisoned or diarrhea..."

Qi Yun: "Big boss, the jar of incense used by Qingyu has obviously been tampered with, and the four of them are the most suspicious, so let them go back like this, okay?" ”

"......" Yan Mo was silent for a while and said, "The clues of the case are a mess, it's better to mix them up, let them ferment on their own, maybe they can still gain something, wait and see first, there are officials in the Fang Mansion guarding it, and there are people in the alley watching..." ”

"When you go to check the east lane of the city again, the king will go too!" King Xing waved his fist and said, "The king is going to break the stone that injured the second emperor's brother into ten thousand pieces!" ”

Hearing this, Yan Mo glanced at Qi Ming in a daze, and lowered his eyes and was silent...

This is the first time Qi Ming has seen such evasive and shy eyes on Yan Mo's body... It seems that it is better to be good at it... He said in his heart, the Nine Emperor Brothers can also stay for a while...

Qi Ming thought about it like this, and looked at King Xing with a light smile, his expression meaningful...

Back at the palace, as soon as Qi Ming got out of the carriage, he shouted: "Someone!" ”

A group of guards appeared in front of the gate in unison, and said in unison: "Lord Wang, please give me!" ”

Qi Ming took out the list and said: "According to this list, there must be no mistake in collecting the remaining bottles of canned incense from door to door!" Be silent! ”

"Yes!" There was another shout in unison, and the guards took the list and scattered!

Yang Lost hid behind the gate, and when he saw Yan Mo, he hurriedly stepped forward and asked, "How is Aoki Gongzi?" Is the suspicion cleared? ”

Yan Mo: "Brother Aoki has to stay in prison for a while, Miss Yang, don't worry, he will be fine." ”

Yang was lost: "But... What a man lives in prison..."

Yan Mo smiled: "You don't have to worry about this, Miss Yang, Brother Aoki and I haven't suffered anything, there is food and sleep in prison, you can rest assured!" Well? ”

Qi Ming and Jin Guard kept staring at Yan Mo, and when they heard that the other party had not suffered anything, the brothers didn't feel good in their hearts...

"Let's eat first! The king is dying of hunger!! King Xing took the lead and led everyone to the hall to prepare lunch.

After lunch, Yan Mo sat in the main house of Yan Ming Courtyard, the bamboo water fanned her with a feather fan, and Lan Bo brought ice products to Yan Mo to relieve the heat.

Yan Mo thought about his loss of control and his departed relatives today, and couldn't help but feel sad secretly... She saw Lan Bo bring smoothie cheese, and remembered that when she was in Mojiazhuang, the second uncle loved to eat ice, and played with ice cubes, occasionally stuffing sweet cakes and ice cubes to eat, occasionally stuffing some fruit, and occasionally stuffing cheese...

Lan Bo: "This is what Bai Xue taught me, princess, you eat less for lunch today, try this, I also do it for the first time, the craftsmanship is not good... If it doesn't suit my taste, I'll redo it. ”

Yan Mo's eyes reddened slightly, and he took the ice product and said, "Thank you, Uncle Lan... I can feel the care of this ice dish, it must be delicious! And then she began to taste the ice cream...

Lan Bo's eyes were slightly unbearable, and he was about to say something, when Qi Ming's voice came from outside the door.

"Yan'er, the guards are all back." Qi Ming came in with a wooden box, followed by the crown prince, and of course the fart Xingwang followed.

After all three of them were seated, Lan Bo bowed and withdrew, preparing more ice products.

Qi Ming opened the wooden box and said, "There are a total of twelve bottles of incense here." ”

Yan Mo was surprised by the efficiency of the guards: "Won't it be robbed?" Stolen? ”

Qi Ming: "They exchanged it for Master An's imperial balm. ”

Yan Mo: "Master An's imperial balm? ”

"You don't know that, do you?" King Xing cocked his nose and said, "Master An is the most prestigious craftsman in the capital!" His incense, carvings, tricks, costumes, and furniture are all hard to find!! If anyone owns something made by Master An, it is a face-saving thing!! ”

Yan Mo bit the soup spoon, and when she saw King Xing's appearance like this, she was addicted to her body: "Then do you have any objects from Master An?" ”

"......" someone's upturned nose seems to have become shorter!

"Second Emperor Brother! The King of Balm also wants a copy! "King Xing's nostrils blow air!

"Huh!" Yan Mo snorted lightly, "Those are all women's products, aren't you afraid of others, you sissy?" ”

"You!! Who's sissy!! Hum!! King Xing put his hands around his chest, shrugged his shoulders and was angry, and the breath blowing from his nostrils was almost catching up with the wind of the bamboo water fan!!

Seeing that King Xing had successfully adjusted Yan Mo's mood, Qi Ming untied the peiyu on his waist and stretched out his hand and said, "This jade pendant is the work of Master An three years ago, and it was given to the Nine Emperor Brothers." "Who knew that there was another hand that stretched out together!

"This is Master An's new work this year." In the prince's hand was a dragon pattern jade ring.

The two brothers couldn't help but glance at each other!

Happiness comes so fast!! King Xing put away his resentment and instantly turned into shining eyes!!

He snatched two things and said, "Brother Prince Xie!" Brother Xie Erhuang!! Hahahaha~"

King Xing's joyful light lit up the whole room, and Yan Mo had to cover it with her hands, and then she saw that there were only twelve bottles of cans of incense recovered.

Yan Mo: "A total of twenty bottles were sold the day before yesterday, excluding the five bottles from Fangfu, and the one bottle at the scene of the crime yesterday, there should be fourteen bottles... What about the remaining two bottles? ”

Qi Ming: "I was about to talk to you about this, and the remaining two bottles are missing." ”

Yan Mo: "!! ”
