"Auntie, I heard that the maid of the Ming family died, and she died in the prison of Nanyang Mansion, I don't know if this is true or not."

"It's true, everyone in Nanyang City knows about this." The eldest lady sighed twice, her eyes full of pity: "I heard that the girl was killed by herself, and I don't know how much she was wronged in this life." ”

"As a maid, I married instead of the young lady, and when I arrived at the Hou Mansion, I encountered these things again, and whoever I changed, I couldn't stand it."

"Otherwise, the children of poor families are all cheap and worthless." The eldest lady shook her head, pointed in the direction of the Nanyang Hou Mansion and asked Yan Su: "Since the Nanyang Hou Mansion died, it has been taken over by the people of the government, girl, if you go to visit relatives and friends, you can go back." ”

"Thank you, auntie, since you are here, you always have to go to the door of the Hou Mansion to have a look, and the elders in the family will ask in the future, so that you can answer." Yan Suwen got up, saluted, and went in the direction of the Nanyang Marquis Mansion.

The eldest lady shook her head and continued to sell her things.

As the eldest lady said, since the death of Nanyang Hou, the Nanyang Hou Mansion has been taken over by the people of the government. When the Marquis of Nanyang was alive, he married a lot of wives, but he did not give birth to a man and a girl, so that although there was a holy decree of the emperor, there was no one to inherit the Hou Mansion. When the matter is clarified, this Hou Mansion will also be under the name of the imperial court.

When Yan Su asked in front of the Hou Mansion, he saw Gu Changfeng standing at the door with Gu Yunfei. She smiled sweetly and quickened her pace.

"Little woman, how dare you wait at the door."

"It is a matter of equal to one's own wife. How is it? It is useful to inquire. ”

"It's useless to wait until I see the corpses of Nanyang Hou and the maid, I always feel that the death of this maid is a little strange."

"Was it extinguished?" Gu Yunfei came over.

"She's a little maid, what's worth it for others to silence. Besides, the Marquis of Nanyang is dead, and the Hou Mansion has nothing to say, who would do more to bribe the jailer and kill her in prison. ”

"The strange thing that the lady said is—"

If she doesn't want to die, she just needs to explain the cause and effect, and push everything on Minglan , why did she choose to die by hitting the wall in the prison. Although she is the maid of the Ming family, the current Ming family is no different from ordinary people, even if she says something, the Ming family has nothing to do. ”

"I think it's very simple." Gu Yunfei continued: "Although I don't know who this maid is and what her relationship with Miss Minglan is, but if I can stand up and help Miss at a critical time, I must have been by Miss's side since I was a child." This maid is called Mei'er. This Mei'er is Miss Minglan's close maid nine times out of ten. ”

"It's not nine times out of ten, but it's just. This Minglan girl grew up in the Gu family, and you are also an old man in the Xiangfu, why don't you even know this? ”

"I don't know it's weird, isn't it? Our grandfather doesn't necessarily know. Gu Yunfei wrinkled his nose: "It's true that this Minglan girl lives in the Prime Minister's Mansion, but she lives in the courtyard of the old lady." Our master, except when he asks for peace, he won't go to the old lady's yard at all, and even if he goes, the Minglan girl may not be there. Even if Miss Minglan is here, she may not necessarily bring her maid. Even if you bring them, you don't necessarily know them, let alone what they're called. ”

"And then?"

"And I don't know if it's normal."

"You're right, you're right, I didn't expect it."

"Let's go in first." Gu Yunfei held Yan Suwen's hand: "The situation is worse than we imagined. Nanyang Hou's body is not well preserved, and I am afraid that it will be a little troublesome. ”

"After all this time, I know what to expect." Yan Su asked back with a smile, and was dragged into the Nanyang Mansion by Gu Changfeng.

When he arrived at the place, Yan Su asked to know what was wrong with the so-called bad in Gu Changfeng's mouth. Because of the limited technology of storing corpses, the Nanyang Hou Lin Xiaozhi that Yan Suwen saw was a highly decomposed corpse. The original fatal injury, that is, the place where Minglan dictated with a hairpin, there is no way to verify it, and what Yan Suwen can do is to examine it according to the existing condition of the corpse.

"No wonder Nanyang Hou has no heirs." Coming out of the torture room, Yan Suwen took off the face towel on his face: "Nanyang Hou was born with a crippled, although he can barely have sex with a woman, but he can't leave a son and a half daughter for the Lin family."

"Born handicap?" Gu Changfeng asked, not loud.

"What is the situation of this innate disability?" Gu Yunfei scratched his head, feeling that he had no way to imagine the innate disability that Yan Suwen said.

"This ......" Yan Su asked after thinking about it seriously and replied: "It's like the attendant who entered the palace didn't clean up when he was purifying. It's just that the people are later, and Nanyang Hou was born. "Strange books

"Inner ......" Gu Yunfei didn't know what to say: "No wonder this Nanyang Marquis always tosses his wife, his feelings are useless, and he uses the ladies to be angry." Bastards like this, it's better to die and save yourself from harming people again. ”

"Whether Nanyang Hou is embarrassed for this reason is that his wife is no longer able to verify at the moment, but through my autopsy, there are many new discoveries. First of all, the cause of Nanyang Hou's death was not excessive blood loss, but poisoning. ”

"Poisoned?" Gu Changfeng frowned slightly: "What poison?"

"I can't tell what kind of poison it is at the moment, but the toxicity of this poison should not be large, and it is a chronic poison."

"Chronic poison? Then this poison shouldn't have anything to do with Miss Minglan. ”

"No, although it is a chronic poison, there are not many toxins left in Nanyang Hou's body, and the toxins are relatively concentrated, which means that Nanyang Hou died soon after taking the medicine. Don't you think it's strange that you can die after only one or two doses of chronic poison? ”​

"It's not surprising, it should be the person who poisoned me, I didn't expect Nanyang Hou to be killed so soon."

"Will the person who poisoned him choose to give him chronic poison before and after the wedding banquet of the Marquis of Nanyang?"

"Yes." Gu Yunfei nodded: "Miss Minglan will, because at other times, it is not easy to do it." Madam, you think, Miss Minglan didn't want to marry Nanyang Hou, but she couldn't avoid this family affair, so she thought of using the gap of drinking a glass of wine to throw the poison into Nanyang Hou's cup and let him pay for it. Miss Minglan is not from the rivers and lakes, and it is normal to not know that this poison is fast and slow. This Minglan girl originally planned to slowly poison Nanyang Hou to death, but she didn't expect that something went wrong when she entered the cave room. Miss Minglan stabbed Nanyang Hou to death by mistake, and the maid Mei'er stepped forward to apologize for Miss Minglan, but she couldn't bear the pain of prison and died in the prison. ”

"Your analysis is reasonable, much better than those people in Nanyang Mansion." Yan Suwen couldn't help but give Gu Yunfei a thumbs up.

"Madame thinks that's the case, doesn't she?"

"Madame, I don't rely on feelings, I prove evidence." Yan Suwen took out a piece of paper and handed it to Gu Yunfei: "Nanyang Hou is indeed poisoned, but this poison is not taken in a conscious state, but in a coma state, because the toxin expands very slowly."

"In a coma?"

"I also made a bold hypothesis, or conjecture." Yan Suwen took a breath, and then spit out heavily: "Miss Minglan and Nanyang Hou did have an argument on the night they got married, because I found several marks on Nanyang Hou's body, and these marks are very likely to be left at that time. Miss Minglan did make a move, and stabbed Nanyang Hou with the hairpin on her head, because of her weak body and sudden attack, Nanyang Hou fell to the ground, stumbled, and then fainted. After that, the maid Mei'er put forward her own idea, and Miss Minglan listened to Mei'er's advice in a panic, changed clothes with her, escaped from the Hou Mansion, and then fled to Yecheng with the assistance of the Ming family, and fled to our Prime Minister's Mansion.

So, after Miss Minglan left the Nanyang Hou Mansion, what happened in the new house? ”

"What happened?" Gu Yunfei asked with Yan Su's thoughts.

"Mei'er fed poison to the unconscious Nanyang Hou."

"Why?" Gu Yunfei asked.

"Why? Why? In order to cover up for Minglan ? Yan Su asked and pondered: "Mei'er is Minglan 's close maid, Minglan escaped because she thought that she accidentally stabbed Nanyang Hou, causing Nanyang Hou to die, but what if Nanyang Hou didn't die?" At this time, Mei'er should also be flustered, and in the panicked situation, she made a subconscious reaction, that is, to completely kill Nanyang Hou and let Minglan completely free. But the question is, how can a maid carry chronic poison on her body? ”

"That's right, how can a maid carry chronic poison on her body? Miss Minglan is not a lady. ”

"What did you say?"

"I explained that Miss Lan is not a lady. Madame is a medical student, and her medical skills are exquisite, and she is also very proficient in Gu poison, and it is normal to carry seventy or eighty kinds of poison on her body casually. As Mrs.'s close maids, it is normal for Errong and Youbai to have them. But Miss Minglan is the kind of ordinary girl, she has learned piano, chess, calligraphy and painting since she was a child, and it is normal to have needlework and thread on her body, but with poison, it is too abnormal. ”

"Let's go and see Mei'er's body first, if the poison is really hidden by her, then maybe some clues can be found in her."

"Everyone is dead, and they are dead in the prison of Nanyang Mansion, even if there are clues, they will be lost."

"Let's take a look first, I hope to find out."

Mei'er's body was next door, and when she opened the door, she saw the girl lying on the straw mat. She was indeed very beautiful, but at this time her beautiful face was covered with tiny scars, and her lips were dry and cracked.

"Will the jailers of the Nanyang Mansion also bend into a move?"

"This kind of situation will happen in any prison, but didn't this Mei'er come in by confessing her guilt? Since he confesses his guilt, then there is no phenomenon of torture into confession. Gu Yunfei touched his chin: "Otherwise, I'll find a jailer to ask." ”
