Chapter 939: A Strange Aroma
Since it seems that this has already been said, it is not good for the minister to continue to resign, since this is the case, I hope that the emperor can let everyone in the palace cooperate with me during this time, and if I can find out the truth of this matter smoothly, the minister can be regarded as making a contribution to the palace. ”
Shen Qianshan can be regarded as agreeing, but for him, it is equivalent to being able to install his own people in the palace, although Shen Zhongbai's wishful thinking is good, but in the final analysis, he can't do this for him in vain, and he must have his own arrangements.
Shen Qianshan returned to Lingyin Pavilion and told everyone that he was about to attack and investigate the case, although Gu Yan was a little worried, but she didn't say anything, this matter is not an ordinary situation, of course she will be worried, will this be a play directed and acted by Shen Zhongbai to invite you into the urn.
He has already done such a heartbreaking thing before, whether it will be self-directed and self-acting, no one can say.
"It's an opportunity for me to go into the palace, maybe I can take this opportunity to take care of all these things and install my people in the palace."
Shen Qianshan has to agree to this matter if he doesn't agree, after all, he is already in a dilemma, no matter what the situation is, if he can't refuse, he can only find some places that he can use from this matter, only in this way, this matter is not a loss.
"Then you have to be careful, I always think he came prepared this time."
Gu Su Liang also felt that this matter was a bit unreliable, if it was usual, it would be even if it was when everyone was so nervous, Shen Zhongbai suddenly came to such a picture, who could stand it?
"Not necessarily, maybe he originally wanted to solve the situation in the palace quickly, so he desperately wanted to find you to help." Chu Tiankuo and the others didn't think the same, but they felt that this might be a good opportunity, if even Shen Qianshan felt that this matter was not a very bad thing, they actually didn't need to be so concerned and worried.
Shen Qianshan's thoughts in his heart were actually not much different from Chu Tiankuo's, so this time, he decided to really give it a try.
The murder cases in this palace have something to do with me, and I may be able to hear all the things in the palace clearly.
The first step in investigating the case is naturally to see the three people who have died.
Although Gu Yan still felt a little unreliable, she still didn't stop him after all.
Because Shen Qianshan's identity is here, even if he enters the palace, he can't bring any of his own people, which really makes Shen Qianshan a little uncomfortable, but fortunately, in the palace, before the matter is dealt with for the time being, Shen Zhongbai should not do it to himself.
In order not to cause panic in the palace, Shen Zhongbai minimized the impact of this matter as much as possible, and because of this, he gathered all the dead in this room, just waiting to see when he could find out the truth, but in fact, he didn't even look at it once.
just returned all the blame to Zhou Ziyuan, but Shen Zhongbai still aimed to solve this matter, so he specially arranged Zhou Ziyuan to help, Shen Qianshan is not unclear about anything, at least he is by his side, he can help himself to see if there is anything missing.
"Did the emperor order all the people to stop here?"
If Shen Qianshan is not mistaken, this seems to be a cold palace.
Zhou Ziyuan was also a little embarrassed after hearing his question, "The prince deigned, this place is indeed a cold palace, but in order to keep this matter a secret, before getting the truth, the emperor doesn't want anyone to get news about this matter." ”
Zhou Ziyuan actually thinks that this kind of practice is not very reasonable, in fact, everyone in this palace knows what is going on, he has checked so much in the palace before, even a fool knows that it is because of this incident, but Shen Zhongbai still has to do this kind of thing to cover his ears and steal the bell.
But after all, he is just a scary person, he can't talk about his master, he can only honestly do what Shen Zhongbai arranged.
"Then let's go first, the money has been happening for so many days, and it is estimated that the corpse is ......"
Shen Qianshan was still mentally prepared before entering the door, reflecting that the boss was reluctant to go in after a while, but this thing has happened for seven or eight days, even if this corpse is well preserved, it must have begun to fester, if this is really the case, he probably can't find any clues.
Zhou Ziyuan actually came to see the corpse for the first time, and before that, he had been following Shen Zhongbai's instructions to honestly check the people in the palace, so he had never had a chance to come over.
Pushing open the door and walking in, Zhou Ziyuan's face changed suddenly, and Shen Qianshan, who was following behind him, also felt that something was not right, and walked with him.
After Shen Qianshan entered this room, what he smelled was not the smell of rotting corpses, but a strange smell that was inexplicable and incomprehensible, and even felt a bit like a smell like spices.
There were three murders in the palace, and two of them had very calm facial expressions, but the other one was different, he still had a hideous expression on his face, and it could be seen that he should have resisted, but in the end he did not succeed in resisting.
This is strange, these three people are all guards in the palace, according to common sense, if they really want to do it, they will not be unsuspecting and their hearts will be gouged out, how can they be killed so easily? After thinking about it, I still felt that something was not right, and Shen Qianshan also felt that this matter should not be so simple.
And the strange aroma in this room, I always feel as if I have seen it somewhere, as if it is nearby, but because I don't usually use incense, I can't remember for a while, where I have smelled such a smell, it is really strange.
He looked back at Zhou Ziyuan beside him, "Do you know what this smell like?" ”
"I've already checked the source of the taste, and although I've found spices with similar tastes, if I continue to investigate, there are no other clues worth using."
Zhou Ziyuan also found this spice by mistake at that time, but it was actually in the place where these three people were found, but those concubines in the palace, everyone will have different spices in their dreams, and the emperor is not allowed to check it himself, and there is really no way.
Zhou Ziyuan took out a small piece of incense from himself, which he secretly hidden.
"That's it, I found it in one of them, but I haven't been here before, and I just suspect that there is something wrong with this spice, so I secretly hid it."
Shen Qianshan didn't know much about these, so he could only go back with this chain, there were almost no extra scars on the corpses of these three people, and the person who started it was absolutely stable and accurate, if this was really the case, it would be even more complicated to find out about this matter by himself, because the other party did not leave any traces on it at all.
After returning to Lingyin Pavilion, Shen Qianshan hurriedly took out the things, after all, the only clue now is this.
"Do you smell this and feel a little familiar?"
Shen Qianshan couldn't describe what he smelled in the palace, in comparison, in terms of spices, Gu Yan must have more experience than himself, but the identity of 0 is here, and he can't take her into the palace with him.
Shen Zhongbai has always been eyeing him, if he finds an opportunity, wouldn't he lose his wife and lose his army?
Gu Yan sniffed it carefully, and after thinking about it for a while, she also tilted her head, "Isn't this the kind of requiem incense that the girls in Yuhualou often use?" ”
Gu Yan often comes out of the rain flower building, and she knows a lot about this aroma, but she has more or less adapted to it, if she doesn't think about it carefully, she still can't remember it for a while.
"Is there anything special? What is the difference between this and the spices used by those concubines in the palace? ”
Shen Qianshan felt that this spice must be special, otherwise, why would everyone emit this smell?
"There's nothing special, the girls in Yuhualou often use this incense, but if I'm not mistaken, the raw material of this incense seems to be poisonous."
Gu Yan knew that Shen Qianshan had just come out of the palace, and there must be some clues, but this incense was too common, at most, it could only be said that those concubines in the palace would not use this ordinary spice, and there seemed to be nothing else.
"Toxic? What kind of poison? ”
"It's just that it will paralyze people mentally and temporarily lose their mobility, but this plant has been treated before it is made into spices, and this fragrance is not poisonous."
"And does this spice do anything?"
Gu Yan was also very curious about this kind of incense before, because the smell of this incense is really comfortable, so she also went to check the book, "In fact, it is an ordinary spice, the girls in Yuhualou are all day and night, and it is inevitable that they can't sleep during the day, so they will smoke this kind of incense in the house." ”
In this way, she can sleep even during the day, and Gu Yan has actually used it secretly, but this spice is really not very useful to her.
"It's really good to smell, but the effect varies from person to person, and not everyone may have such a big reaction."
