Chapter 021: Framed
The female corpse's tongue stretched out extremely long, and her eyes were round, as if they were about to burst out of her eyes.
Blood flowed all over the ground, soaked in blood red everywhere.
"Looks like he just died." Du Ziyu looked at the blood on the ground that had not yet completely coagulated.
Tang Feng nodded lightly and circled around the female corpse twice to make a conclusion.
"It's a maid from the Chen Mansion, about sixteen years old, and the cause of death is that her throat was cut."
After speaking, she sighed twice, "It's really miserable to die, but this is not within the scope of our expertise, let's let the people of the Chen Mansion decide for themselves." ”
As soon as they finished speaking, people nearby who heard the movement also arrived.
Chen Lanyi, the second son of the Chen family, followed everyone to the scene, and when he saw the scene in front of him, he suddenly let out a howl.
"Mother, Qin'er, she's dead!"
When such a thing happened, the faces of the people of the Chen Mansion were not very good-looking.
The old lady glanced at everyone with her unangry and arrogant eyes, and opened her mouth lightly.
"Qin'er was scolded by me a few times ago, and I can't think of using this method to take revenge on my old wife and disturb your Yaxing, I'm really sorry."
Everyone knows this is a pretext.
But they still wanted to give face to Mrs. Chen, and were about to say a few innocuous words to bring this matter over, and someone spoke before them.
"Grandmother obviously knows that it was the eldest brother's hand, why did she fool the past?"
Chen Lan opened his mouth angrily.
The situation of the Chen family is even more complicated than that of the Prime Minister's Mansion, not only a group of warblers and Yanyan in the backyard, but also a wife and a flat wife.
His wife died of illness three years ago, leaving behind Chen Ningyu and Chen Yinquan, two brothers and sisters.
And at home, it is the flat wife Liu who is in charge.
Old Madam Chen's face turned pale, "Shut up for me!" ”
"Why should I keep my mouth shut, on weekdays, you are partial to the eldest sister and eldest brother, forget it, this is a human life, Chen Yinquan has the ability to do it, why don't you dare to admit it!"
Tang Fengqing and Du Ziyu glanced at each other, and they both saw a deep meaning in each other's eyes.
It's not easy.
Tang Fengqing finally figured out why the current Chen Ningyu didn't know the code, and he was married to the Shen family.
It should be that after this incident, her brother's reputation was ruined, and perhaps he was worried about his life, and she, as a loser in the house fight, was married to the Shen family.
In order to miss Chen Yinquan, she learned what he liked.
For the sake of Chen Yinquan's talent, Du Ziyu had to stand up.
"Old Madam Chen, report to the official." He said in his usual cold tone.
Tang Feng glanced at him lightly, and turned his head to the old lady and Chen Ningyu.
"Shizi is right, only by reporting to the official can Chen Gongzi be innocent, anyway, there are many people who come to the banquet, even if you are vague about it, everyone will talk about it tomorrow, and you will feel that this matter was done by Chen Gongzi."
The old lady and Chen Ningyu thought about it, and finally decided to report to the official. Chen Ningyu leaned over to Tang Fengqing's side, her eyebrows were slightly worried, and she asked. "Miss Tang, can you save my second brother?"
"As long as the thing is not done by your second brother, I will do my best." Tang Feng lightly shook her hand and comforted her slowly, "Your second brother doesn't look like that kind of person." ”
How could a man with only a secret code in his eyes do such a cruel thing?
Moreover, the reactions of Liu's mother and son are also strange everywhere.
Knowing that the old woman had reported to the official, Liu's expression did not change.
The old lady sent someone to report to the official, so that the people at the banquet were free. They all wanted to stay and watch the excitement, so they didn't leave, they just stayed on the side, and some of them couldn't bear the loneliness and played nearby.
At this moment, Chen Lanyi suddenly let out a surprised "huh".
"It's such a big thing, it's time for the big brother to come."
Liu's cold eyes narrowed slightly, and he followed his words and said, "Sending someone to find the eldest young master, maybe he is hiding with a weak heart." ”
Tang Fengqing is not from the Chen family, so he doesn't care who is in charge of their family, his eyes wander on the Liu family.
"Speaking of which, I don't know something, the people from this government haven't come yet, how did Mrs. Chen push things on Chen Gongzi all the time, saying that this motherless child is like floating roots and weeds, this is really true." This is to tell everyone that Liu's wife is not good for Chen Yinquan.
Liu Shi made a coffin face, "Miss Tang, it's not good for you to be an outsider to say that." ”
Tang Fengqing nodded happily, "It's really bad for me to say this, but my own experience is almost the same as that of Gongzi Chen, so I can't help but speak, Mrs. Chen, if you don't have a weak heart, why stop me?" ”
When everyone thought about it, it was indeed the case.
Just when Mrs. Chen was riding a tiger, the little maid on the side ran over. "Madam, the eldest prince is asleep in the next room, but ....." he glanced at everyone cautiously, and his voice was much weaker, "but the eldest prince was covered in blood, and there was a sharp knife next to him." ”
The crowd was in an uproar.
This murder case is not really done by Chen Dagongzi.
"Bring him to me!" Liu gave an order.
It didn't take long for Chen Yinquan to be brought over by a group of people.
His face was as pale as paper, which made him a little more weak.
"Son!" Liu Shi was so angry that his chest rose and fell, and his voice was like a cold winter Ling Bing, "You actually did such a thing, how can you be worthy of the old lady who raised you single-handedly!" ”
As soon as she finished speaking, the maid beside the old lady spoke in a hurry.
"What's wrong with you, old lady?"
I saw the old lady staggering back two steps, her eyes rolling, and she stood straight on the ground.
Du Ziyu walked over quickly, squatted next to the old lady's body, stretched out his hand to check the old lady's pulse, and shook his head at everyone with a sad face.
"Old lady, it's gone."
Liu hurriedly ran to the old lady's side, turned his eyes and glared at Chen Yinquan viciously, his eyes full of tears.
"It's you, you beast, that the old lady to death. Come on, tie up the eldest prince, and when the people from the government come, I will hand him over in person! ”
After speaking, the people below were about to tie up Chen Yinquan with a thick rope.
Tang Fengqing stood up, kicked the few people who were doing it, and turned his head to look at Liu. "Mrs. Chen's words are too early."
This old lady died strangely at first sight, and it is unlikely that she died of anger.
Liu Shi trembled with anger, and stretched out his hand to point at the bridge of Tang Fengqing's nose.
"Miss Tang, what do you mean by mixing it again and again? Could it be that you have a very close personal relationship with the eldest son of my family? ”
I almost pointed to my nose and said that they gave it to each other privately.
Chen Ningyu took the initiative to stand up, took Tang Fengqing's hand, and faced Liu.
"I disappointed my mother, Feng Qing is my good sister, she just couldn't see it, so she just helped my brother say a few fair words."
"I don't care if you have a friendship or not, Chen Yinquan killed an innocent woman and killed his grandmother angrily, what everyone said with their own eyes, you still harbor him, an evil animal, what is your intention!"
Liu's eyes burst out with monstrous anger.
"Whether Chen Gongzi killed this woman or not is still up for debate, but as far as I can see, the old lady is not as simple as dying of anger."
Tang Feng's soft voice was slow, like a clear spring that penetrated people's hearts.
"Nonsense!" Liu denied it coldly.
Before she finished speaking, people from the government arrived, and one of them came a puppet.
Du Ziyu let the work be tested.
He squatted beside the old lady for a while, and finally spoke.
"There is nothing wrong with the old lady's pulse, but her throat is black, and she knows that it is poisoned at a glance, and she doesn't know what poison is so peculiar that she can't see it in the pulse."
If it weren't for Tang Fengqing and Du Ziyu's insistence that the old lady was poisoned and died, it is estimated that he would not have probed his throat.
It turned out that the Liu family relied on this poisonous vein to be unable to get out, so they dared to be so fearless.
Tang Feng pointed to the corpse hanging on the tree again, and said to him: "Come and see, what is the cause of death of this corpse?" ”
The pretending was that Qin'er's body was put down.
After half a ring, he looked up, "The toxin on this corpse is the same as the one in the old lady, and it was stabbed in the throat and hung on a tree before the person was cold, which created the illusion of being stabbed to death." ”
Tang Feng let out a long sigh and looked at Liu with sharp eyes.
"Since it is not an ordinary cause of death, then it should be thoroughly investigated!"
After speaking, Tang Feng gently pulled Chen Ningyu's sleeve.
Chen Ningyu was extremely sad because of the old lady's death, but she understood that Tang Fengqing's move was for her good, so she raised her head with a white face.
She bracked herself up, her voice weak but with an unquestionable firmness, "Then let people search the whole house, and don't let go of any clues!" ”
As soon as she finished speaking, Tang Fengqing arched his hand to everyone again, and said with a humble expression.
"It is unfortunate that such a fact happened to the Chen family, and I invite everyone to move to the flower hall and move enough space for the officials to handle the case."
Although everyone was not satisfied, they rested halfway through the show.
But Tang Feng made a gesture lightly, and Chen Ningyu was really miserable, so everyone had to reluctantly move to the flower hall. Liu's eyes were Ling Ran, and when everyone was not paying attention, he glanced at the young man at the back of the crowd, and the young man nodded slightly at him.
As if she had found the backbone, she calmly followed everyone to the flower hall.
Tang Feng took all this into his eyes, pointed to the young man and asked Chen Ningyu.
"Who's that?"
Chen Ningyu glanced at the young man from a distance and recognized it.
"That's Liu's nephew, Liu Xuan. Pingsu is like a leper dog, often staying at my house and messing with my second brother. ”
The second brother in her mouth is Chen Lanyi.
Tang Fengqing didn't ask much, and followed everyone to the flower hall.
They had already said before that the courtyard of the female dependents would be searched by the maids in the house themselves.
And the man's yard was searched by officers and soldiers.
When he was in the flower hall, Chen Ningyu's palms were full of sweat, and dense fine sweat appeared on his forehead.
Tang Fengqing was about to comfort her, but found that his sleeve was pulled twice.
She turned her head to look and found Tang Yingqi looking at her with watery eyes.
"What's wrong?" Tang Feng took her hand lightly.
Tang Yingqi pointed to the corner of the flower hall, where a man and a woman were chatting happily.
"Qin Lan'er has been leaning towards men since she entered the mansion, and she has been laughing with this third son of Liang, I am afraid that if she continues like this, she will ruin the reputation of our family."
Tang Fengqing's eyes also sank, "Bring her back to me." ”
Tang Yingqi walked over, she didn't know what she said, anyway, Qin Lan'er had reluctance written on her face.
Eventually, I came over.
Tang Feng's eyes were calm, and he lowered his voice and warned: "Qin Lan'er, I can't care if you are cheap, if you dare to discredit the Tang family, don't blame me for not being able to spare you." ”
Qin Lan'er bit her lip tightly and said "yes" aggrievedly.
Tang Fengqing has more important things to do now, and he has no time to take care of her.
The officers and soldiers searched the entire Chen Mansion and finally got a bag of black filaments, just like the tea leaves they usually drink, but the filaments were poisonous.
"This is something that was found in the eldest prince's room."
The officers and soldiers honestly put the black cloth bags on the table.
Liu's eyes were fierce, and he threw the black cloth bag heavily in front of Tang Fengqing, "What else do you have to say until now?" Tang Feng stepped forward lightly, bent down to pick up the black cloth bag, took the filament inside and gently rubbed it in her hand, and after a while, her hands were covered with black stains.
"It's going to fade, no wonder." Tang Feng lightly pointed at the maid beside Liu, "You see, is the black stain on her hand the same as mine." ”
