Emperor Ji reported the case to Emperor Showa early the next morning, and Emperor Showa attached great importance to this case, and at the foot of the Son of Heaven, the important ministers of the court were almost wiped out, and if this case was not handled well, it would easily cause panic among the people, and it would also damage the prestige of his monarch.

After the early dynasty, Emperor Showa called Master Ji to the imperial study, and specially explained that he must strictly investigate this case, and there must be no cover-up.

In the last sentence, Master Ji felt it for a while before he came back to his senses, was Emperor Showa afraid that he would shield Lin Mumu? After all, Lin Mumu is now the most suspicious.

Thinking about it like this, Lord Ji couldn't help but shudder, and couldn't tell what it was like in his heart, after all, Lin Mumu had just detoxified Emperor Showa not long ago, and there were some things that Lord Ji didn't want to think about, so he could only do his part, as for Lin Mumu, if the real murderer was really her, he would never tolerate it, after all, it was more than forty lives!

Lin Mumu is suspicious, and the suspicions of Lin Haode and Lin Haosheng cannot be completely cleared, everything has to wait for the results of the autopsy, and how the person died can be further determined before the case can be further determined.

Master Ji returned to Jingzhao Yin's Mansion in a distraught manner.

"Are the results of the corpse examination over there out?" As soon as he returned to the inner hall and sat down, Jing Zhaoyin asked.

"My lord, a few people are asking to see you."

Master Ji thought they were here to see the autopsy results, so he let them in.

"See your Excellency."

Master Ji waved his hand. "Don't care about those false courtesies, the emperor has already stated that he attaches great importance to this case this morning, and the key to solving the case is you, let's talk about it."

A few of them glanced at each other and didn't say anything immediately.

There was no response, and Master Ji glanced at them with some displeasure. "Why are you dumb and can't speak all of a sudden?"

One of the older ones bowed down and said, "The adults, the little ones are incompetent, so far we can only determine that those people died of sudden cardiac arrest, but the specific cause of death has not yet been discovered." ”

Master Ji listened to this, and his brows were twisted into Sichuan characters. "Who died not because their heart was not beating, what is the difference between what you said and what you didn't say, if you don't know the cause of death, you can't investigate it in a targeted manner, and there is nothing suspicious about those corpses?"

"Back to my lord, the villains have carefully examined each corpse and made sure that there is nothing unusual about them."

Master Ki got up from his chair and paced back and forth for two steps.

"Your Excellency, your Excellency."

In silence, the official came over quickly.

"How?"

"Lord Wang, they found something suspicious in the well of the Lin Mansion."

"Something suspicious? Go and have a look. ”

Half an hour later, Master Ji came to the well in the backyard of the Lin Mansion.

"Your Excellency."

"Well, what did you find?" Master Ji asked.

Lord Wang asked a bucket of water to come out of the well. "Lord Ji, look at the water in this bucket."

Hearing this, Master Ji squatted down and looked at it, and under the golden light, the water in the bucket was actually glowing with a faint blue light.

"Bring me a spoon."

Someone hurriedly handed the scoop over.

Master Ji scooped a spoonful of water out and poured it on the ground, but the water stains on the ground did not show a strange color.

He took out a white handkerchief from his body and poured water on it, and the handkerchief seemed to be wet with normal water, and there was nothing unusual about it.

Master Ji wrinkled his eyebrows and looked at Lord Wang and the others.

"You've all tried?"

Lord Wang nodded. "I've tried it all, and this water looks colored when it is poked, but it seems to be no different from normal water when it is placed elsewhere."

"Go, get a brute."

"Yes."

Soon, someone walked in with a chicken, and Master Ji asked the man to spoon water and feed the chicken.

The chicken did not immediately show any signs of abnormality after drinking the water, but two quarters of an hour later, the chicken, which was walking in the yard, suddenly kicked its legs and fell with its eyes crooked.

The people present watched the fallen and stepped forward.

"My lord, this chicken is out of gas."

"It seems that the people in the Lin Mansion have a problem after drinking the water in this well, seal this well, and bring back the bucket of water for the servants to confirm again and go home."

"Yes."

"Your Excellency, Your Excellency!"

Master Ji and the others were about to leave, and an official ran out in a hurry.

"What's the matter?"

"My lord, we found another person in the Lin Mansion!" The official said urgently.

Master Ji's eyebrows jumped. "And one more? The people of the Lin Mansion? Alive? ”

"Yes."

"Quick, bring someone here."

"Yes."

Soon, two officials came over with a person.

"Dead, dead, all, all dead, help, help me......"

"Where did you find the people?"

"The backyard of the Lin Mansion, the courtyard of the second lady of the Lin Mansion, the subordinates and others checked the objects in the courtyard, this person should be the young lady of the second room of the Lin family, and she just came back from Longhui County with the second master of the Lin Mansion."

"Help, help, a lot of people died......"

Master Ji looked at the crazy Lin Yiran and let out a deep breath. "Bring the people back to the yamen first, and then send someone to search the Lin Mansion to see if there are any others."

"Yes."

……

Lin Mumu: After they were taken back to Jingzhaoyin's mansion, they were imprisoned in the mansion.

"Miss, are you tired, why don't you lean on the slave and rest for a while?" Lin Mumu hasn't closed her eyes since she was locked in last night, and Shuangshuang and Qiaoqiao are very worried when they see each other.

Lin Mumu shook her head, she had been combing through the whole process of what had happened and had checked the information from the corpse.

Although the time was limited last night, she still looked through a few corpses roughly, there were no obvious signs of a fight on those people's bodies, and there were no obvious wounds on their bodies, as if they had suddenly collapsed and couldn't get up, and some of them seemed to have died suddenly.

She tested the corpses with medicine, and the corpses she tried were not poisoned, which means that they could be ruled out as sudden and violent deaths after being poisoned.

What is the reason for that, and what is it that can make people die in such a short period of time, and so many people.

While pondering, there was a sound of footsteps outside the cell door, and after a while, an official opened the cell door and walked in.

The two officials stepped forward to get Lin Mumu without saying a word.

"You, what are you going to do to my young lady!" Seeing this, Shuangshuang wanted to step forward to stop him.

"The adults want to try the prisoners, and they won't let them go!"

Lin Mumu didn't struggle. "Don't worry about me."

"Miss......"

Lin Mumu gave them a reassuring look and followed the official out of the cell.

Lin Mumu was brought into the torture room, and Master Ji was already waiting inside

It's on.

"My lord, the prisoner Lin Mumu brought it."

"Hmm."

Master Ji looked at Lin Mumu who walked in and said: "Lin Mumu, I learned from many people that before the incident, you had a great conflict with your father, grandmother and others, even to the point of fighting each other, and afterwards your father Lin Haode grounded you in the courtyard, is this true?" ”

At that time, there was such a big movement in the Lin Mansion, and there must have been many people who knew about it, and Lin Mumu did not deny it.

"Lin Haode wants me to be a concubine for the eldest princess's newly recognized son, I don't want to, yesterday the eldest princess's mansion came over, Lin Haode wanted to forcibly send me to the sedan chair, I got into trouble with them, as the adults said After they left, Lin Haode grounded me in Xiaoxiangju, I don't know when something happened in the house."

Master Ji looked at Lin Mumu with a relaxed expression, not like he was lying, and Lin Haode wanted Lin Mumu to be a concubine for the eldest prince, and someone had already told him about it, and it was indeed true.

Master Ji didn't say anything about marriage, parents' orders, matchmakers, etc., but suddenly sank his face and said coldly: "Lin Mumu, you didn't tell the truth to this official!" You are unwilling to be a concubine for Fang Zhenxuan, but you are afraid that Lin Haode and others will use tough means against you, so you will poison the Lin Mansion as soon as you don't do anything, and it just so happens that you are grounded in the courtyard, giving you a perfect reason not to know! Lin Mumu, is this official right!? ”

Lin Mumu looked at Master Ji with a look on his face I know that this must have been done by you, and the corners of his eyes twitched.

"Master Ji, you are Jing Zhaoyin, you have to pay attention to evidence when you speak and do things, this matter has nothing to do with me, even if you think of a way to scare me, I can't say the answer you want to get."

Master Ji didn't expect her to react so quickly, and snorted. "At that time, your father and second uncle were not in the mansion when the people in the mansion had an accident, no matter how you look at it, your suspicion is much greater than theirs, not to mention what good is it for them to kill so many people in the mansion?"

"Does Naki-sama think I'm stupid?"

When Master Ji heard her ask, his eyebrows and heart skipped and he didn't say anything.

"It was Lin Haode who forced me to marry, even if I wanted to get him, I should kill him first, as long as he died, what would those people in the Lin Mansion do to me? Why should I risk so much to take the lives of the people in the whole house, and Master Ji don't tell me anything Lin Haode and they just escaped the catastrophe when they were not in the house, should I not find out where the others are first when I want to kill someone? ”

Belch......

This is not without reason.

"I need to kill everyone with great fanfare? If the case is investigated, what good can I do?! ”

"It's not impossible that you will be angry and do it!"

"This is even more ridiculous, has Master Ji forgotten that I was able to move out of the Lin Mansion after falling out with my grandmother, so I can't leave this time? If I really don't share the sky with the people of the Lin Mansion, I can do it at that time, so why wait until now? ”

Master Ji, who asked this, couldn't answer.

Lin Mumu has always had a bad relationship with Lin Haode and others, which is no secret in Xijing.

Lin Mumu is indeed very suspicious as a suspect, but when she investigates the suspicion deeply, it makes people feel that something is missing.

It's like killing a chicken with a knife.

"If you believe what you say, then the official will ask you again, did you find anything unusual in the house that night?"

"The door of Xiao Xiangju was locked from the outside, and I couldn't get out, so how could I know the situation outside?"
