Su Jingye took the initiative to ask questions in the front, and Zhao Ming stayed in the back and worked hard to write. It's just that in such a quick calligraphy, it is not to record the question that Su Jingye just raised, but to use it for other purposes.

"It's good to tell the truth, if the report is meritorious, maybe the prince and the lord will still have a reward." Wu Sanniang helped urge, and then glanced at Zhao Ming, who was busy, and reached out to pick up the teapot on the table and poured himself a cup of tea.

After tasting that the tea was cold, she had to put the cup down in a huff.

Those girls who were still a little sleepy, you look at me and I look at you a few times, as if reading the answer in their respective hearts from each other's eyes, Xu Yu turned his head to look at Su Jingye again, but they all shook their heads.

"Isn't there even one?" Su Jingye felt strange and puzzled at this time.

Wu Sanniang was also stunned, as if she didn't want to look too dignified in front of Su Jingye and them, her face turned red, she deliberately shook the handkerchief in her hand, and reprimanded the girls a few words.

"Don't start talking nonsense just because you didn't rest well last night, you have to answer the prince's questions well. Naturally, you are not indispensable for what you say. ”

"Sanniang misunderstood, how dare our sisters not report it, and it's not a big deal, as long as you have a clear heart, why not be afraid of what you say."

Among the four or five girls, the one in the aqua red dress looked more handsome, and her words were very frank.

It's just that although there is some truth in what she said, from the mouth of a weak woman like her, it always makes people feel that something is wrong.

In this room, a person just died yesterday, and in the mouth of the girl in the water-red dress, it was just a fluttering sentence, which was embarrassing.

"Then I ask again, who saw who entered this room last night? Who is the deceased, do you know who? "Since everyone has already been called, Su Jingye must not give up so easily, and he must ask something.

It's just that these two simplest questions are still exchanged for the girls' shaking of their heads in denial.

Wu Sanniang saw Su Jingye with an embarrassed face at a glance, and the frowning brows of the girls under him, and she was also very helpless in her heart, and after sighing lightly, she raised her left hand and waved it.

"That's it, presumably they won't be able to help the prince, Shui Se, you can bring the other sisters back first."

"Yes." The one called aqua is the girl in the aqua dress who was the first to open her mouth.

Su Jingye put his right hand on the table, his index finger kept tapping on the table, and his mind was busy trying to connect his discoveries, he didn't want to ask these girls to leave too early, but listening to Wu Sanniang's words, he couldn't refute it, so he had to acquiesce.

Shui Se agreed to Wu Sanniang's words, and also noticed that Su Jingye fell into deep thought, and before letting all the girls around her turn around and leave, she deliberately added an extra sentence.

"The prince forgives the sin, and the water color still has something to remind the prince."

"Please." Su Jingye raised her head, thinking that she had some unique clues, and suddenly became interested, but heard Shui Se open her mouth and said, "Although Shui Se didn't pass by here last night, she also followed everyone when things got up, so she came over to take a look." ”

"The man who lay dead on the ground is not known to anyone, and it can be said that he has never been there, and besides, the business in our deepest building every night is not bad, there are many noisy people, just a jerky and first-time person, it will not attract the attention of others."

"Alright, you guys go down quickly." What Shui Se said was categorical, so Wu Sanniang couldn't help but worry about whether Su Jingye would be angry, so she hurriedly called the others down, and came over to comfort her.

"The prince forgives the sin, they are also spoiled by me, and they always speak openly, please don't be surprised."

"It's okay, it's like this, but it's still true. It's just that the clues between the girls are broken, I wonder if Sanniang can call the little guy who was the first to discover the mutation yesterday? ”

Su Jingye smiled at the corner of your mouth, picked up the herbal tea on the table and drank it all, which can be regarded as refreshing yourself.

"Even if you call him over, all his words are not different from what the slave family told the prince before, I'm afraid it will be in vain." Wu Sanniang said that he was not too lazy to move, but he just didn't want his efforts to be in vain.

Su Jingye shook his head, "These are not important, the most important thing is that the confession of the witness is a necessary material for the Yamen to file and close the case." ”

As soon as these words came out, Zhao Ming, who was shrinking behind and writing hard, suddenly raised his head, and after being stunned for a moment, he thanked Su Jingye with a smile. "Thank you for your compassion for the work of the lower officials and for your thoughtful consideration."

Wu Sanniang had nothing to say when she saw this, so she went to bring someone over in person. Compared with those girls, the little guy is a lot more lively, and he looks young, he was not frightened yesterday, and he is bold enough.

Su Jingye looked this person up and down, and after asking a few questions in a regular manner, he asked someone to go down, and sure enough, it was the same as Wu Sanniang's kind advice just now, there was nothing special.

After this person also stepped back, Su Jingye went through the testimony they had provided in his mind. Wu Sanniang sat aside, only quietly looking at Su Jingye who was thinking and Zhao Ming who was busy.

According to the testimony they provided, it was the loud noise that came from the broken vase that attracted the servant to come over.

The broken porcelain pieces of the vases in the room did not have any blood stains on them, so they were either broken before or after the murder in the room.

But the little servant's movements are fast, and if the vase is broken in advance, when he pushes the door in, he can see the dying dead and the murderer who fled in a hurry.

And none of this is in the testimony of the little guy, which excludes the possibility of the former.

If a person dies and then breaks the vase, it will be a little difficult to understand. What's more, the distance between the vase and the deceased is a tea table, and it is too cumbersome to deliberately take a detour to break it.

Could it be that the murderer did it on purpose, just to attract people over?

Su Jingye thought about it, and involuntarily stood up and walked around the room. On both sides were the marks of where the deceased was lying, and on the other side were broken porcelain pieces that were broken to the ground, and although he was lost in thought, his subconscious was still awake, so he simply pushed the door and walked out into the corridor.

Zhao Ming and Wu Sanniang watched Su Jingye push the door out, thinking that today's investigation was over, so they hurriedly packed up their pen and ink and followed.

It was only when they walked to the corridor that the two found that Su Jingye was standing still, and Zhao Ming had no choice but to stop, lean on the railing with Wu Sanniang, and look down along his line of sight.

With such a cursory glance, Zhao Ming found Zheng Cheng scurrying around in the crowd in the hall below. At first, he thought he had seen something wrong, but after rubbing his eyes again and again to make sure, he couldn't help but laugh.

At this time, knowing that His Majesty was already angry, and he dared to come to these places, Zheng Shangshu's courage really suddenly became so big. Lord Wang, did you find out just now, that's why you came out on purpose? ”

"No, it was just an accident." Su Jingye's pupils returned to normal, indicating that his thoughts were temporarily over and he had returned to reality.

He pinched his chin with one hand, supported the elbow of his right hand with the other, and the corners of his mouth quietly hooked an arc. "Well, I'm afraid that I will come out at such a special time at such a special time, at the risk of doing nothing, not for fun."

"This king has also seen Lord Zheng quietly pull Lord Zhao to talk elsewhere, I'm afraid he came today for the same purpose as last time."

"That time was just a greeting between the two of us, and Lord Zheng was also very concerned about Xiaguan's case." Zhao Ming laughed embarrassedly, but when he said this, he suddenly stopped, grabbed the railing and asked.

"What does the prince mean is that Lord Zheng is afraid that he was involved in yesterday's case?"

"It may not be because of him, after all, Lord Zheng doesn't have such great courage, but he definitely can't escape the relationship." Su Jingye cleared his throat and turned his head to look at Wu Sanniang on his right.

"This adult, do you have any impressions of Sanniang?"

Wu Sanniang's face froze, and the situation at this time was a bit difficult for her. After all, everyone knows what kind of crime it is for officials to come to the land of fireworks, and she is not saying it now, and she is not saying it.

"Don't hide it from the prince, although the slave family doesn't want to betray the guests in the drunken building, but today I still take the liberty to say more, Lord Zheng has indeed come a few times, I just hope that the prince will not use this to hold the handle, then the slave family will be guilty."

"Sanniang rest assured, protecting the safety of witnesses is also the basis of the investigation." Su Jingye nodded, but found that Zhao Ming was still standing beside him with this booklet in his hand, without any movement at all, and couldn't help but remind in a deep voice.

"Lord Zhao, you said it so clearly just now, why haven't you turned back now. If you don't go up and stop Lord Zheng, when he leaves here, he may not admit that he has been here, and your case will not be beneficial to Lord Zhao. ”

"What the prince said is that the lower officials will go over." Zhao Ming Xinxia was already in a hurry, so he wanted to go downstairs, but he was still holding the book of the Venus record in his hand, so he didn't know who to hand it over.

Wu Sanniang next to him may not be reliable, and he doesn't have the courage to ask Su Jingye to take it, so Zhao Ming had to roll up the book and hide it in his sleeve, which is not very noticeable.

Zhao Ming made way to go down from the other exit of the corridor, just in time to walk behind Zheng Cheng. Originally, he wanted to scare him by surprise, but Zheng Cheng searched for him to no avail, and inadvertently turned around, but he happened to meet Zhao Ming, which made Zhao Ming embarrassed.

"Lord Zhao, it turns out that you are here, and the official has never found you anywhere."
