Chapter 184: The True Murderer

The prefect gave the order, and his men were preparing to take those people away. Seeing this scene, the eldest lady's expression changed even more drastically, and she wailed at Su Wanqing again and again while struggling: "Sixth princess, you said you would spare our lives!" You can't just say it! ”

Su Wanqing looked at the lady with a somewhat hideous face lightly, and said softly: "I said that if you recruit from the truth, you will be spared from death." But I didn't say that you won't be punished in any way. ”

The eldest lady stopped speaking suddenly, she bit her lip and looked at Su Wanqing with some resentment. But she didn't dare to speak out, and she also knew that if she said something more, her life would be really in jeopardy. After all, the six princes next to her are still there, and she is not a fool.

The village chief did not struggle, and was silently pulled away by the guards. He also knew that what he had done was unforgivable, and if he knew that the girls would end up like this, he would definitely not do it. But that's how many things are, and there's never an if.

These two corpses are still like this, and the women before that, the village chief doesn't dare to think about it anymore. But everyone present knew that since it was done by the same person, then those women would naturally not end up.

Find their bodies...... It's just a matter of time.

And the originally arrogant Scar Man hung his head in frustration at the moment, like a defeated rooster, languishing. He probably regretted it in his heart, why did he bump into Su Wanqing's big Buddha, if they had a better attitude at the beginning, maybe the ending would have been different.

A group of people were taken away in this way, and the scene was very spectacular.

But Su Wanqing knew that these people were just accomplices at best, and the real killers had not yet appeared. It is too early to say for sure.

But in this Piaomei Village, it can be regarded as an end, even if you continue to look for it, there are no clues.

According to what the village chief said, the man in black was masked every time, and his voice was deliberately lowered, and he didn't know where those people came from, let alone search for their details.

Now there is still a mystery that has not been solved, and that is the death of Yao Lao.

He was killed under the noses of everyone not far away, Su Wanqing was curious, what did Yao Lao find out and was killed, looking at his expression, he was obviously very shocked, what did he see before he died?

And how could the killer be so coincidentally hidden here, could it really be that the person behind the scenes received the news before they arrived? But even so, his behavior is still very reckless, because in doing so, he is likely to expose himself.

Su Wanqing's eyes sank, because there were too many weirdness in Piaomei Village before, she didn't put too much thought into Yao Lao's body. Now it seems that maybe there will be clues hidden in Yao Lao's body, which they didn't expect.

Besides, there is nothing to do in Piaomei Village now, Su Wanqing discussed with Pei Xiu, and prepared to go back to the imperial city to report the situation to Pei Tianyu first. I believe that if Pei Tianyu knows, in this remote but beautiful place, such a dirty thing as human trafficking is actually staged.

But this imperial city is indeed time to be rectified.

Otherwise, the emperor's prestige in leaving the country will be greatly reduced.

Su Wanqing instructed Ying to prepare the carriage, and Xu Che on the side heard her instructions, and arched his hand at Su Wanqing and Pei Xiu: "If the six princes and the six princesses return to the imperial city, Xu Che will leave first without disturbing." ”

Su Wanqing raised her eyebrows and looked at him, and said with some curiosity: "Won't Gongzi Xu go back to the imperial city with us?" ”

Xu Che scratched his head and said with some embarrassment: "Actually, Xu Che came out this time for another purpose, recently, grandpa's body and bones are no longer as strong as before, and it is useless to take a lot of tonics." Xu Che heard that there were many strange flowers and plants planted there along Piaomei Village for dozens of kilometers to the east, and Xu Che wanted to try his luck there, maybe he could find some good herbs to replenish his grandfather's body. ”

Su Wanqing was stunned, and then showed a shallow smile and said, "Gongzi Xu is really filial, no wonder your grandfather values you so much." ”

Xu Che seemed to be a little embarrassed to laugh, and waved his hand again and again: "The sixth princess said that he was joking, Xu Che has never been under the knee of Grandpa Huan since he was a child, and now he has finally returned to his grandfather's side, so he naturally has to be more filial to his grandfather." To put it mildly, this life is impermanent, and you still have to cherish the present moment as a person. ”

Su Wanqing listened to Xu Che's words and nodded approvingly. I didn't expect this Xu Che to be young, but he thought very openly. Indeed, life is very fragile, and it is important to do more things and cherish the people in front of you while you are still alive.

Thinking of this, Su Wanqing said: "This trip has also delayed a lot of time, since Xu Gongzi has something to do, let's leave first, let's get ready, and we will leave here later." ”

Xu Che nodded, saluted Pei Xiu, nodded at Ying and the others, and then rode a horse and galloped away in another direction.

Su Wanqing looked at the dust kicked up by the horses' hooves, and always felt that something seemed to have been omitted by herself, but she couldn't remember it for a while.

Pei Xiu looked at the dust raised in the wind, as if he thought of something, he looked at Su Wanqing frowning a little distressed, he shook his head slightly, and then beckoned.

A shadow seemed to flash in the air, but no one noticed it.

Su Wanqing couldn't think of a reason for a while, she turned around and pushed Pei Xiu's wheelchair, sighed while pushing and said, "That's it, Xiu, let's go back first, my father must be waiting for us in the imperial city, I'm in a hurry." ”

Pei Xiu nodded as if he felt something, he grabbed Su Wanqing's little hand, and said softly: "Wanwan, don't put so much pressure on yourself, you have done your best." ”

Su Wanqing nodded with a sad face, although she knew that Pei Xiu was doing this to comfort herself, but she still couldn't get over the hurdle in her heart.

A few men walked to their carriage and passed by the strange grass that was overgrown.

Ying seemed to smell something, he frowned, rubbed his nose and said, "The smell of these grasses is really big, they were all covered by the fragrance of plum blossoms before, and now when I get closer here, I find that this smell is really uncomfortable." ”

"Taste?" Su Wanqing was stunned, she sniffed carefully, there was indeed some strange smell in the air, a gust of wind blew from the grass, and the smell was even stronger.

Su Wanqing seemed to have thought of something, and her voice became a little anxious.

"Shadow, hurry up and move Yao Lao's corpse out!"

Although Ying didn't know what was going on, seeing Su Wanqing's expression so eager, he also realized that things were not so simple, and hurriedly ordered his subordinates to go down and do things.

Yao Lao's body was quickly moved out, because he had not been dead for a long time, his body had not changed much, but the wound had solidified.

Su Wanqing hurriedly looked at Yao Lao that day, and only noticed that he was killed with one blow, and then she was attracted by the grass that Xu Che said, and she didn't have time to observe it carefully.

At this moment, Su Wanqing squatted next to Yao Lao, looking at his closed eyes, and then his gaze slowly moved to his chest, where the bright red blood had turned black.

Su Wanqing looked at the wound, no matter how she looked at it, she felt very familiar.

She was a mercenary in her previous life, so she naturally saw all kinds of weapons. This wound ......

Something seemed to flash through her mind, Su Wanqing's eyes lit up, and she couldn't help but shout: "It's a dagger!" Yao Lao was stabbed to death with a dagger! ”

The man in black next to him was stunned, and then looked at each other.

As killers, they naturally carefully identified them, and they could also see that the fatal wounds on Yao Lao's body were caused by daggers. But why are the six princesses so happy?

After Su Wanqing finished speaking, she stopped talking again.

She lowered her head slightly, approached Yao Lao's body, and sniffed carefully.

The shadow next to her almost opened her mouth to stop her, wanting Su Wanqing to stay away from Yaolao. Although the Sixth Imperial Princesses were very eager to find out the evidence, Yao Lao had been dead for a few days after all, and it seemed that it was not very good for the Sixth Imperial Princesses to approach it so rashly......

He turned his head to look at Pei Xiu, and seeing that he still looked light, he took a breath secretly. That's it, the six princes are not worried, they don't have to worry about it, the six princesses are a measured person, and after getting along with each other these days, they also know it.

A strange, somewhat familiar smell slowly entered Su Wanqing's nose.

She lifted up and muttered, "That's the smell......"

Ying looked a little anxious next to him, and couldn't help but ask, "Sixth Princess, what is the taste you are talking about?" ”

Su Wanqing pointed to the pile of grass that was blooming and swaying back and forth not far away, and said, "Yao Lao's body has the smell of this grass. ”

Shadow was stunned for a moment, and then spoke: "And then?" ”

Su Wanqing sank her eyes, she should have thought of it a long time ago, didn't she? All kinds of signs actually point to that person.

"Yao Lao must have smelled this smell at the beginning, so he was killed."

Ying was still confused, and said inexplicably: "What Yao Lao smelled, isn't it the smell from this meadow?" Although the smell is not very strong, the subordinates can still smell it. ”

Su Wanqing shook her head and said: "Today, we can smell the smell of the grass, it is entirely because the wind just blows from that direction, think about it, the day we first arrived in this grassland, did we notice this smell?" ”

Ying thought about it and shook his head honestly.

"And this wound ......"

Su Wanqing said affirmatively: "Yao Lao must have been very close to the murderer that day, he had seen this kind of grass before, he must have smelled this smell on the murderer, and he also mentioned it." But he didn't expect that it was this sentence that killed him...... Think about it, who else was able to make Yao Lao show such an incredible expression, and he was killed by a dagger? ”

A name gradually floated, and Shadow felt his goosebumps rise.

He muttered, "Xu Che......"
