Chapter 115 is said to be a mandarin duck
In the early morning of the next day, Situ Yimo was about to go to Lord Hu's mansion, but Dali Temple sent someone over, she thought that something had happened to Qu Fanyou, so she asked Gan Tang to talk to the lord of Nirui, and she went to Dali Temple.
As soon as she arrived at the door, Tang Wuchi was waiting for her at the door, Situ Yimo saw that his face was heavy, the corners of her eyebrows jumped, she secretly thought that it was not good, and her footsteps paused, could it be that something really happened to Qu Fanyou.
"Master Qu ......"
"Let's go in first."
Situ Yimo saw that Tang Wuchi's face was solemn, and she was worried that Qu Fanyou's poison had not yet been resolved, and his life was in danger.
Tang Wuchi saw that there was no one around, Situ Yimo's face was worried, and he whispered in Situ Yimo's ear, "The county lord doesn't have to worry, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has already solved Qu Fanyou's poison." There is another reason for looking for the county lord. ”
Situ Yimo paused slightly, a little surprised, but Qu Fan was fine.
Sure enough, as soon as she stepped into Qu Fanyou's house, Bai Zhen greeted her happily, saying that Qu Fanyou's body was fine, and said some words of thanks to her.
"The last time I broke into Situ Wang's Mansion, I was rude to Miss Situ, and Gong apologized deeply." Gong Bohuai came out of the inner room and apologized to Situ Yimo.
"It's harmless, Master Gong doesn't have to take it to heart."
Situ Yimo didn't care about this, "We martial arts practitioners have always been free and easy, and we don't care about these small things. ”
Tang Wuchi glanced at Situ Yimo with great appreciation, and when he thought of something, he said, "Let's go into the inner room first, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is still waiting for the county lord." ”
Situ Yimo nodded, followed Bai Zhen to the inner room, and saw the frail Qu Fanyou coming with a grateful face, and saluted gratefully, "Thank you An and the county lord for your help." ”
"Lord Qu, the person who saved you is His Royal Highness the Prince, I am just a gesture, and I dare not accept Lord Qu's gift." Situ Yimo shook his head and stretched out his hand to help Qu Fanyou.
"For the county lord of Anhe, it is a gesture, but the lower officials will remember it."
"Yes, yes, I will also remember the kindness of the county lord." Bai Zhen went over to help Qu Fanyou and said.
His Royal Highness the Crown Prince pushed the wheelchair out, raised his eyes and glanced at Situ Yimo a few times, saw that she was slightly tired, raised her eyebrows slightly, looked at the sachet on her waist for a long time, the corners of her mouth twitched, and her face was a little unnatural.
Tang Wuchi sat on the Taishi chair, and seemed to notice the sachet on Situ Yimo's waist, on the strange pattern, twisted his brows, hesitated for a long time, and couldn't help asking.
"Lord Anhe, can you take the liberty of asking, how is the sachet on your waist different from the past, this one seems a little strange, it is embroidered on it, it is a cat, it has no tail, I have been looking at it for a long time, I really didn't see anything? I also ask the county lord to give advice. ”
When the people in the room heard Tang Wuchi's words, they all looked at the sachet on Situ Yimo's waist with different expressions.
Situ Yimo smiled awkwardly, reached out and touched the sachet, looking at the pattern on it, she herself was a little unbearable, seeing that everyone was looking at the sachet, she said embarrassedly, and her tone was also very unconfident.
"This, it is said to be a mandarin duck."
"What?"
"Mandarin ducks?"
"Mandarin duck, when did it look like this?"
Tang Wuchi twisted his eyebrows tightly, looked surprised, looked at it carefully, and didn't believe that the strange patterns on it would have anything to do with the mandarin ducks.
Situ Yimo was a little embarrassed, and when she received this sachet at that time, she was also very suspicious and slightly disgusted. But she still has to hold the sachet embroidered by her cousin. No, I put it on myself and went out.
"I don't know, Your Royal Highness the Prince, what do you have to tell me?" Situ Yimo didn't want everyone to keep staring at the sachet, so he changed the topic.
The corners of His Royal Highness the Prince's mouth rose slightly, no longer paying attention to the sachet, took out a small porcelain bottle from his sleeve, and handed it to Situ Yimo.
"Powder?" Situ Yimo sniffed, the aroma was very faint and strange, "I don't know what His Royal Highness the Crown Prince wants me to do?" ”
"I hope Miss Szeto can develop a powder similar to this one, but she needs to change a few of the ingredients." His Royal Highness the Crown Prince explained, and gave Situ Yimo a packet of poison powder, "This is poison powder, I need you to mix this poison powder into it to cover up its existence." ”
Situ Yimo took the sachet, opened it and glanced at it, the corners of his eyebrows jumped, then wrapped it and nodded, "Okay, I don't know if His Royal Highness the Crown Prince can use it in a hurry?" ”
"Well, these two days can give me the best."
"Okay, I'll have someone send it to Dali Temple tomorrow."
Tang Wuchi was stunned for a moment, then thought of her sensitive nose, so he didn't say anything, but asked curiously. "Lord Anhe, why don't you ask what it does?"
Situ Yimo put away the porcelain bottle and poison powder, and said with a smile, "His Royal Highness the Prince's orders, as a courtier, just listen to the ability to do things, and for some reasons to know too much, it will be troublesome." It's better to be an ignorant and be happy and worry-free. ”
Qu Fanyou chuckled, "Lord Anhe lives a transparent and free life. ”
Courtiers? His Royal Highness the Crown Prince's eyes flashed with a hint of complexity, and he looked at Situ Yimo thoughtfully for a few seconds, but did not say anything.
Tang Wuchi couldn't stop talking, thinking of the murder case of the household servant yesterday, and knowing that Situ Yimo was investigating this case, he asked.
"Lord Anhe, what is the progress of Lord Hu's murder?"
Situ Yimo was slightly stunned, then glanced at the people in the room, paused, and said, "I just received news that the suspect has been caught, and the county lord of Nirui has gone to Lord Hu's mansion for interrogation. ”
"Already have a suspect? So fast? Tang Wuchi was a little curious, "So, you were planning to go to Lord Hu's mansion just now?" ”
"Exactly."
"Why is the interrogation not in the Mansion Yin Yamen?"
"It is said that the suspect is physically responsible, and it is not appropriate to move."
Tang Wuchi and Gong Bohuai glanced at each other, he was a little curious, and then raised his eyes to look at His Royal Highness the Prince, seeing that he didn't have any orders, he looked at Situ Yimo and said.
"I've always heard of the name of Weicheng Shuangyasha, and I have long wanted to learn the skills of the two county lords to investigate the case, and today is a rare opportunity, so I will go with An and the county lord to take a look."
Situ Yimo knew that Tang Wuchi went to Lord Hu's mansion, and it was definitely not as simple as wanting to see how they investigated the case, but she didn't want to get involved in the affairs of the imperial court, so she just nodded and responded.
After Tang Wuchi and Situ Yimo left, Qu Fanyou looked at His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, and seeing that they didn't say anything, he frowned and said, "Why is the county lord of Anhe investigating the case of Hu Shilang?" This matter is related to the Pei family, and the county lord of Anhe is deeply involved, but he is afraid that there will be danger. ”
When Bai Zhen heard this, he helped Qu Fanyou sit down and said, "Why don't I go to protect Lord Anhe?" ”
Seeing that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince did not speak, Gong Bohuai glanced at His Royal Highness the Prince, paused, and said, "Miss Situ is protected by hidden guards, not to mention that Lord Shang did not stop Miss Situ from finding out, so Lord Anhe is still very safe." ”
Hu Mansion
The county lord of Ni Rui was sitting in the lobby, she looked at the maid kneeling on the ground, and the young woman with a pale face and coughing on the side, the corners of her eyebrows were furrowed.
She looked at Master Li and asked, "This is the murderer?" ”
Before Master Li could reply, the maid kowtowed and shouted desperately, "No! The slave didn't kill the adult! ”
"Wronged! The slave is wronged! ”
"Shut up, the county lord of Nirui hasn't spoken yet, you are in a hurry to shout grievances, shouting, what kind of system!" Lord Li scolded, for fear that she would anger the county lord of Nirui.
"Okay, don't shout injustice, if you are really wronged, the county lord will not ignore the facts and convict you at will! In this matter, with the county lord and the county lord of Anhe, no one wants to make trouble in front of us! We will definitely find out about this matter! ”
The majestic voice of the Nirui County Lord rushed into the lobby, making everyone tremble, and even Lord Li's face changed.
"You say she is the murderer of Master Hu, but what evidence do you have?"
Master Li paused for a moment, and asked the master to present the evidence, it was a silver hairpin, this hairpin Nirui County Lord had seen, and it was found by Situ Yimo.
"Only this hairpin?"
The master saluted respectfully, and then replied, "Go back to the county lord, there are still witnesses." ”
"Witnesses? Could it be that he is the one who kneels in the audience? ”
"Back to the county lord, it's him."
The county lord of Ni Rui looked at the little guy kneeling beside him, and pressed the corner of his eyebrows, "Who is he?" ”
The master motioned for the man to reply.
The little guy kneeling on the ground swallowed his saliva, glanced at the Nirui County Lord carefully, and replied, "The slave is the little guy next to the master, Yu Zhuang." ”
"You say you're a witness? Can you prove that she killed Master Hu? ”
Yu Zhuang's eyes dodged for a moment, and then glanced at Xiao He next to him, this look seemed to be a little weak, he shook his arms and said, "Back to the county lord, yes, the villain can prove that it was Xiao He who killed the adult." ”
Xiaohe on the side turned pale, as if he had been hit, his body fell to the ground softly, and his teeth bit his lips tightly, as if he had been wronged.
"Oh? Then you speak, how did this little lotus kill people? The county lord of Nirui stared at Xiaohe carefully, and seeing that her face was not good, he turned to look at Yu Zhuang, and asked with his fingers on the table.
"Back to the county lord, this Xiaohe's father was originally the bookkeeper next to the adult, and then he went out with the adult to run errands, and there was an accident, Xiaohe once heard that it was the adult who killed her father, and she wanted to avenge her father, so it must be Xiaohe who killed the adult."
The county lord of Nirui looked slightly shocked, and there was such a thing. It's just that...
"How did you know that?"
Yu Zhuang's body trembled, his forehead began to sweat, and then he thought of something, as if he had made a decision, he said, "Back to the county lord, villain, villain and Xiaohe, Nai, is a childhood sweetheart, these are all what she told the villain." ”
"Hmph, so, you're a negative man!" The county lord of Nirui was slightly angry and looked down on Yu Zhuang with disdain.
"Small, little ......"
Yu Zhuang's face was faintly ashamed, he didn't dare to look at Xiaohe, shook his body and said righteously, "Back to the county lord, the adult has the grace of reinvention in the villain, and now the adult is dead, the villain can't bear to die in vain, even if the murderer is the villain's childhood sweetheart, the villain can't protect Xiaohe with a conscience." ”
"Hmph, that's pretty righteous." The county lord of Nirui glanced at Yu Zhuang in disgust, and felt a sense of disgust for his explanation, and when he saw that Xiaohe's face was as miserable as white paper, he asked.
"Xiaohe, what do you explain to his accusations?"
"Servant, servant......" Xiaohe's voice trembled, and she looked very aggrieved and sad.
"Ahem, ahem, ahem--"
There was a cough in the hall, and I saw a woman being helped up by her mother-in-law, and she weakly saluted to the lord of Nirui, "The people's woman Lin family see the lord of Nirui." ”
"Grandma, but you have something to say?"
