Chapter 507: Cold

The prince raised a eunuch here, and the eunuch also pretended to be a woman, which already sounded unacceptable to her, not to mention that this eunuch was also related to the death of the second brother of the king of Shunyang County.

Princess Jian only felt that the strength of her body was suddenly withdrawn, and she looked at King Jian with a pale face, what did the prince do.

Under the gaze of Princess Jane, King Jian just frowned and did not immediately deny the words of King Shunyang.

"Lord Wang," Princess Jane was now anxious, "why are you doing this?" What is the matter with the second brother of the prince of Shunyang County. ”

"It seems that Prince Jian still doesn't want to tell the truth," said the king of Shunyang County, "Does the prince have to make such an ugly scene?" ”

Saying that, the king of Shunyang looked around, and there was a mess on the Zhuangzi, and Princess Jian was shocked and shocked, which was all caused by King Jian.

The king of Shunyang County wanted to continue talking.

"Miss," Uncle Lei walked out of the house, "we found something from that Wei'e's house." ”

Ordinary objects, Uncle Lei doesn't care.

Xu Qinghuan nodded and followed Uncle Lei to Wei'e's house to check.

Wei E lives in the courtyard east of Zhuangzi.

Uncle Lei said: "This courtyard is lived by Wei E alone, and there is no subordinate to serve, and it is all taken care of by Wei E himself." ”

Xu Qinghuan nodded, which shows Wei E's status in the Zhuangzi, but there are a lot of people in this Zhuangzi, why didn't Wei E let people serve?

Whether you don't want to have people around, or you don't think it's safe enough to have too many people.

Although she has opened the door of Zhuangzi and her brother has also caught Wei E, in order for King Jian to speak, she must get evidence.

And along the way, Xu Qinghuan believes most in what he sees, not what people say, if King Jian is the person behind the scenes, his words can't be believed casually.

The person who can guide Wang Yun, Su Kun, and Huijing controls everything behind her back, so that she has not seen the true face in her two lives, will never be so simple.

So she won't pin her hopes on the king of Shunyang County, hoping that the king of Shunyang County can say that King Jian can be defeated with one mouth.

Uncle Lei opened the curtain, and Xu Qinghuan lifted her skirt and walked in.

The sun shone in through the window, and the whole room was very bright, as if there was nothing abnormal, Xu Qinghuan touched the desk next to him with his hand.

In pristine condition.

Obviously, Wei E loves cleanliness.

The curtain of crow blue, the small screen made of embroidery on the table, the side room is a small study, the table is full of pen, ink, paper and inkstone, and the used half of the ink strip is placed there, which shows that these things are not decorations.

There were no wrinkles in the sheets on the bed, and there were many sachets of all sizes in the bed, more than in her boudoir, and a pair of soft-soled embroidered shoes were placed on the pedals under the bed, although they were not decorated with any treasures, but the embroidery was very exquisite.

Maybe it's because there are too many needles and threads these days, Xu Qinghuan feels a faint pain in the index finger when she sees the complicated pattern, and if she embroiders these shoes, she may not be able to wear them for the rest of her life.

Looking at these things alone, she would not have thought that this was a eunuch's residence, and the furnishings and atmosphere in it looked like a female dependent.

"Miss, those things were found in the small room behind the bed."

Xu Qinghuan looked behind the bed.

Uncle Lei stretched out his hand and pushed, and a door immediately opened, the door looked exactly like the wall, if it weren't for Uncle Lei, it would be difficult for them to find the clues even if they came in to look for it.

Xu Qinghuan followed Uncle Lei to check.

Probably because there is no sunlight, there is a kind of coolness in this room.

The walls and floors of the blue bricks did not have much in them, and a few hoes leaned against the wall, and next to them were two cages, in which there was a large charcoal basin.

Xu Qinghuan raised his head to look for it, and found an inconspicuous window in the corner of the roof, not so much a window, but a breathable square hole, the square hole is not too big, so there will be an old smoky smell in this room.

It seems that this charcoal basin is not an accident here, someone often burns things here, otherwise there is no need to make a window here, since it is a secret room, it will be more hidden without a window.

Xu Qinghuan took the lamp handed over by Uncle Lei, looked down at the charcoal basin, and sure enough, as she expected, there was a thick layer of ashes in the charcoal basin.

Xu Qinghuan slowly searched among the ashes, and found a corner of the paper that had not been burned, she carefully picked out the piece of paper and examined it carefully, the piece of paper was similar to gold leaf, shining under the lamp, Xu Qinghuan put away the piece of paper so that it could be sent to the yamen in the future.

"Open the cage and take a look."

The subordinate stepped forward and lifted the cage down.

Uncle Lei carefully inspected the cage, then took out a bamboo skewer and opened the copper fish lock on the cage.

Stacks of clothes were neatly placed in the heavy beech boxes, and there were some bits and pieces beside the clothes.

Xu Qinghuan is very familiar with these clothes, they are worn by the palace attendants, Wei E used to be the chamberlain, and it is very common for him to have such clothes.

Xu Qinghuan didn't look at the clothes carefully, her eyes were attracted by another thing, she couldn't help but bend down to check carefully, under a purse, pressed a strip of cloth, the edge of the strip of cloth was not very neat, obviously torn off hard.

Uncle Lei also saw the clue, but he didn't speak, he couldn't interrupt the eldest lady's thinking at such a time.

Xu Qinghuan took out a handkerchief, wrapped this piece of cloth, picked it up and looked at the light.

There was a stain on the strip of cloth, as if it had been soaked by something, and it had dried up because of the passage of time, but the strip of cloth was white, and the stain was very obvious, very much like ...... Bloodstain.

Xu Qinghuan quickly put the strip of cloth in the handkerchief and looked at Uncle Lei: "Unfold these clothes and compare the sizes." ”

Uncle Lei immediately understood that if it was the same person's clothes, then the size of the clothes should be the same, and the eldest lady suspected that the objects in this cage were not the same person.

A few pieces of clothes were taken out of the cage, and Uncle Lei and his subordinates took them and compared them carefully.

Uncle Lei frowned: "Miss, the size of the clothes is different." ”

"It's definitely different," Xu Qinghuan's gaze fell on the cage, "These are not Wei E's clothes, he took them from others." ”

The subordinate next to him couldn't help but shudder when he heard this.

"Miss, this purse is not a person's," Feng Xiao noticed something unusual, "This lotus and peony must be worn by a woman, and this green bamboo is a man's, and the embroidery method is different." ”

Uncle Lei groaned: "Why did Wei E bring these things and put them in the house. ”

Xu Qinghuan raised his head and looked at the whole room again, and then looked at the charcoal basin again: "I don't know whose things these are yet, but ...... They're all dead. ”

When the Xu family's subordinates heard this, their hands trembled, and they almost threw the clothes in their hands on the ground.

Xu Qinghuan said: "The charcoal basin is burned with paper money for the deceased. ”

Uncle Lei almost immediately looked at the hoe standing by the wall: "I'll look around, if he kills people and buries him, he won't be too far away from this Zhuangzi." ”

The room seemed to be a little colder than it had been before.

……

The Li family.

Li Xu got dressed and was about to leave the house, but found that the little maid hurriedly ran into the yard.

Before Li Xu could ask, he saw a familiar figure walking over.

Miss Li entered the door and saw Li Xu in official uniform at a glance: "Is this going to the Yamen?" ”

"How could the eldest sister come to the capital." Li Xu immediately stepped forward and saluted.

looked at Li Xu for a moment: "Ninth brother, why do I think you have a bad complexion, could it be that Changzhou and his party have fallen ill?" ”
