Regret? Xing Tianze thought about Tao Mingxi's words, a little inexplicable, he wanted to see how she made him regret it.

Tao Mingxi stood in place with the token and watched Xing Tianze's figure disappear behind the rockery, looking down at the traditional characters on the token, and his embroidered eyebrows couldn't help frowning.

How could Xiaoyun die like this, this is too strange!

Tao Mingxi hurriedly ran back and stopped Xing Tianze's guards, "Wait, take me to see Xiaoyun's corpse now!" ”

The guard nodded and led the way.

"Mother, you're going to see the corpse? How scary is that......" Zhu'er tugged at Tao Mingxi's sleeve, her eyes full of disbelief.

"Don't worry, there's nothing to be afraid of, I'm also here to help her find out the cause of death and find the murderer who killed her."

Zhu'er looked at Tao Mingxi, who turned away, and her heart was full of doubts, although the princess was not cowardly in the past, she was not such a bold person!

She herself was very afraid of dead bodies, but no matter what, she couldn't let her master face such a terrible thing alone, so Zhu'er thought about it and chased after her.

When the guards took Tao Mingxi to the hut where the corpse was parked, the people of the palace were about to carry Xiaoyun's body out, and the guards told them to put down the body and leave, and then said to Tao Mingxi: "Princess, please." ”

Zhu'er couldn't help but tense when she looked at the door of the hut, she hesitated and didn't dare to go in, but Tao Mingxi had already walked inside, and she had to shrink her hands and feet to follow behind, but she didn't dare to look inside.

"Princess—"

When Tao Mingxi was about to reach out and uncover the white cloth covering the corpse, the guard suddenly stopped her, she raised her eyes to look at him, and wondered, "What do you think?" ”

"This dead corpse is unlucky, so it's better to belong to it."

The guard said that he was about to come up, but he didn't want Tao Mingxi to refuse first, "No need, you can go." ”

The guard had no choice but to retreat, but when he turned around, he saw that Tao Mingxi had lifted the white cloth and exposed the body.

At this time, the corpse had been parked for several hours, and the color was already an iron blue, which looked very terrifying and terrifying, and Zhu'er felt that she couldn't help but tremble, but Tao Mingxi seemed to be used to it, and he directly rolled up his sleeves to check it himself.

The guards looked at Tao Mingxi's movements, and felt as if they were very skilled, but if it was for other ladies, he would have been so frightened that he would have screamed and fled and even fell unconscious on the spot, and he had to go out of the house with doubts in his eyes.

Zhu'er looked at the master's back timidly, and for a while the fear in her heart was replaced by curiosity and doubt, the master was not like this before, she didn't change her face in the face of a dead corpse, as if she was used to dealing with dead corpses?

"Niangniang, do you want the slave to help?" Zhu'er was really scared, but she still couldn't bear to let her master do such a terrible thing alone.

"No, I'll do it myself."

Tao Mingxizai carefully examined Xiaoyun's head, but found nothing abnormal, and then she untied Xiaoyun's clothes.

Originally, Tao Mingxi was a prison guard, but she also liked to watch some criminal investigation films and literary works in her spare time, and naturally learned some knowledge about forensics.

Zhu'er stood aside, originally she thought that there was a dead body in this room, and she was very scared, but seeing Tao Mingxi checking the corpse so calmly, she slowly didn't feel scared anymore, and began to look at Tao Mingxi to check.

"Mother, you ...... like this Aren't you afraid? Pearls asked her in a whisper.

"What's there to be afraid of, after a person dies, except that he has no vital signs and can't breathe actively, he is no different from a living person, and there is no need to be afraid at all, not to mention that even if there are really ghosts and gods in the world, I will check for her now, in order to find clues and return the truth to her family, if she knows in the spirit of heaven, she will not blame me."

Although Tao Mingxi said this, she was still very guilty in her heart, after all, if she hadn't let Xiaoyun be locked in this house that day, maybe Xiaoyun wouldn't have died, she wanted to find out the truth, not only to let Xiaoyun rest in peace, but also to give herself a reason to feel at ease.

Zhu'er listened to Tao Mingxi's words, although the fear in her heart calmed down a little, but she still didn't dare to start, so she just quietly accompanied Tao Mingxi on the side.

Tao Mingxi carefully inspected Xiaoyun's body, and even every inch of skin was not missed, but it was a pity that she didn't find anything abnormal, so Tao Mingxi was embarrassed.

She can't be dissected, and no abnormalities have been found in the places that can be seen by the naked eye, and no useful clues have been found from the deceased's body, and the surrounding places have been carefully examined by Xing Tianze's people, and even they have not found any useful clues, so it is even more difficult for him to find it himself. Where is she going to start investigating this?

"There's no reason, Zhu'er, tell me honestly, do you send food to Xiaoyun every day, how could she die of cold and starvation?" Tao Mingxi really didn't want to doubt Zhu'er and them, but this incident really made her unable to remember.

"Niangniang, Zhu'er swears to the sky, Zhu'er definitely didn't let Xiaoyun go hungry, the sisters in the courtyard have taken care of her, otherwise they wouldn't have found out that she was dead in the first place!"

The look on Zhu'er's voice didn't look like she was lying at all, and Tao Mingxi knew that he was asking a little redundant. After all, people can't do their own work every day, how can they still have the mood and the courage to harm others?

"I'll go back to the courtyard first, and I'll ask the others."

Tao Mingxi and Zhu'er walked out of the house, and when they saw that Xing Tianze's guard was still outside the door, she said, "The body can be carried away." ”

"Yes, the princess walks slowly."

After returning to the courtyard, Tao Mingxi asked Zhu'er to gather all the other maids to the courtyard, and she wanted to get clues through them.

"Which of you has been to see Xiaoyun in the past few days?"

As soon as Tao Mingxi asked, several maids, including Zhu'er, stood up, and she continued to ask: "When you went to bring her food, did you find anything abnormal?" ”

Several of the maids shook their heads.

"Has she spoken to you, have you seen her eat with your own eyes?" Tao Mingxi asked again.

"When the slave went to deliver food the morning before yesterday, Xiaoyun sat on the ground with her back to the slave and maid, and didn't say a word, and the slave and maid called her a few words and left her alone." A girl said.

The other continued, "But when the slave went to clean up the dishes and chopsticks, she finished her meal. ”
