Chapter 716: Request
Zhong Xiaoshu glanced at the imperial doctor and didn't say anything, just waved his hand and let him leave.
If it was as the physician said, it was found at the well.
The death of those palace maids some time ago must have been caused by drinking water with copper salts.
However, if the murderer had sprinkled copper salt into the water, the well water would not have been able to reach such a high concentration.
She turned her head to look at the sheet of oiled paper with copper salt, was silent for a moment, and then went to the well herself.
This well is a well specially used by the next person, and Zhong Xiaoshu walked along the well three or four times without seeing any clues.
She looked down at the darkness of the well, and came up with a bucket to fetch water.
The physician poured the prepared things into the water, and after a while, the water in the bucket changed color.
This change made the imperial doctor's face change instantly.
"There's something in the water."
Seeing the imperial doctor's face changed, Zhong Xiaoshu knew the result, she was silent for a while, and went to the corner to get another spare bucket.
Then another bucket of water was fetched, but there was no copper salt in this bucket.
Zhong Xiaoshu looked at the two buckets of water, and when everyone was still silent, she raised her foot and kicked over the bucket of discolored water.
"There's a problem with the bucket."
After careful examination by the imperial doctor, it was discovered that the inner wall of the bucket had been coated with copper salt.
In this way, as long as someone fetches water, a large amount of copper salt will be dissolved in that bucket of water.
As soon as this result came out, Zhong Xiaoshu successfully cleared the suspicion.
But Zhong Xiaoshu couldn't be happy, she always had a strange feeling these days.
It's as if someone is watching her from behind her all the time, making her feel frizzy and can't settle down.
Within a few days, she had a heavy circle of dark circles under her eyes.
The outside of the palace was also unstable, and the secret guards sent by Zhong Xiaoshu to squat returned in vain.
The Taoist priest is not from the capital at all, and he has been in Beijing for less than half a year, and he is swaggering and deceiving every day.
Originally, there was a boy by his side, but just half a month ago, this boy died of a strange disease.
Other than that, Jingzhong couldn't find out anything about this Taoist priest anymore.
In addition, there was an accident on the other side of the prison.
Mai Ji died, and she was beaten to death, and her death was very miserable.
Yin Zhige was stunned for a long time when he knew about this, he didn't order people to do it, could it be Zhong Xiaoshu?
But it's not right, according to Zhong Xiaoshu's character, he doesn't look like a person who can do this.
What's more, there are still a lot of secrets hidden in Maiji, so she won't be in such a hurry.
When the two men met, they both saw the confusion in each other's eyes, so they were silent.
It's not that they did it, it's that someone broke into the prison.
In the prison, the jailer knelt on the ground, and everyone trembled.
They were all drunk on the day Maihime died, and they couldn't remember what had happened at all.
Yin Zhige had a dark face and didn't say a word, Zhong Xiaoshu got up and went to see the body of the dancing girl.
His whole body was covered with traces of struggle, and there were straws in his mouth and nose, and it seemed that he had suffered a lot before he died.
Covering his mouth and nose, carefully inspecting the body of the dancing girl, Zhong Xiaoshu stood aside, watched silently for a while and left.
She shook her head at Yin Zhige, which made Yin Zhige even more angry, and he slapped the table hard.
"Whoever taught you, dereliction of duty!
Dare to drink and make a mistake while detaining a felon, do you know that it was the traitor who assassinated me who died! ”
The dancing girl cut off all the clues, plus the Taoist priest slandered Zhong Xiaoshu.
has made Yin Zhige feel very bad recently, it is extremely bad.
Mai Ji died, and it was useless to punish the jailer, so Yin Zhige returned to the imperial study sullenly.
Qin Xiang heard a little wind and entered the palace, and as soon as he entered the palace, he noticed that the atmosphere was not quite right.
She probed the little palace maid's tone and found out something.
For example, there was a fire in Kunning Palace.
"You guys actually hide such a big thing so well, everyone outside knows about it."
There are many people in the palace, and it is inevitable that there will be any rumors to go to the front court.
But Yin Zhige sealed everything in the iron net, and the people outside didn't notice it at all.
Even those old monsters who live like foxes don't feel the slightest bit wrong.
It's really amazing.
Zhong Xiaoshu shook his head, "I can't let them know about this yet." ”
She sighed, the mastermind behind the matter was still missing.
If the old foxes were to get in again, it would be over.
"Don't go out and talk nonsense."
Qin Xiang nodded, and suddenly she thought that she had remembered something, and looked at Zhong Xiaoshu and stopped.
"There's one thing I haven't figured out what to tell you."
"That's it."
Zhong Xiaoshu lowered his head and concentrated on peeling the walnuts in his hand, Qin Xiang swallowed his saliva, and then slowly spoke.
"It's my father, as you know, my father came to Xichuan this time for the purpose of marriage.
The Holy One has always disagreed, and we can't stay here all the time, or you can help me. ”
The more she spoke, the quieter she became, Zhong Xiaoshu glanced at her, a little surprised, she didn't expect Qin Xiang to find her directly.
"It's not easy for me to make decisions about this matter, who can say this kind of thing accurately, if I arrange it, and you are not happy as a result, then it is my sin in the end.
If you really can't help it, it's not a big deal to stay longer or come back a few more times. ”
The two countries came and went, she didn't think it was a big problem, Qin Xiang glanced at Zhong Xiaoshu, and finally had to nod.
The Taoist priest committed suicide, Maihime died, and all the clues were broken.
It took Zhong Xiaoshu a few days to remember the little palace maid who scolded her for being a demon girl that day.
So I immediately investigated and went to see her.
She and the Taoist priest should be together, otherwise they wouldn't have so coincidentally identified and slandered her as a demon girl.
Zhong Xiaoshu and Yin Zhige are busy these days, so they forget about this person who has no sense of existence.
When the jailer brought the person up, the little palace maid couldn't see her original appearance anymore, and she thought that she had been taken care of a lot these days.
Zhong Xiaoshu looked at the little palace maid condescendingly, and only felt that her eyes were a little bright.
"That Dao Leader is on the road one step ahead of you, if you go faster, it is estimated that you have already been reincarnated, do you have anything to say?"
The little palace maid didn't speak, just stared at her vigorously, and Zhong Xiaoshu looked at her not to be outdone.
The two of them were in a stalemate for a while, and finally the little palace maid took the lead in looking away.
"I don't know what you're talking about."
The voice was hoarse, and Zhong Xiaoshu was a little surprised by the hard mouth of this palace maid.
She originally thought that someone at such a young age should be unafraid.
"Then to change the question, why am I a witch?"
The surroundings suddenly fell silent, so quiet that she could hear her heavy breathing, and the little palace maid laughed.
"I should have made it clear that day."
