Chapter 50: Wonderful Reasoning
When Han Xiluo saw it, his face suddenly became gloomy, it seemed that he was really prepared. But then Han Xiluo's face returned to calm, that's right, it was her own earrings, which she designed specifically for herself, unique in this world, but it was precisely this uniqueness that made Han Xiluo suddenly think about it. Well, since you have arranged such a good show so carefully, if this girl does not cooperate with you, it will be unreasonable.
Hehehe...... Han Xiluo's heart sneered.
Of course, Meng Xiaotian knew about this pair of earrings, and the strange shape he noticed when he first saw Han Xiluo yesterday.
"Well, this is indeed the princess's earrings." Han Xiluo generously admitted.
"Then what else do you have to say!" Meng Xiaotian saw that Han Xiluo had admitted it himself, and couldn't help but be angry.
"This princess only said that this earring is the princess's, but she didn't say that this poison is also from the princess." Han Xiluo replied lazily.
Without waiting for Meng Xiaotian to go crazy again, Han Xiluo asked the maid of Luoxian Pavilion again.
"Did you see this princess come here last night?"
"Yes, yes."
"Well, since they have picked up this princess's earrings, then you should see which of the princess's ears is missing."
"This, yes, yes......" The maid obviously didn't expect her to ask such inconsequential questions so calmly. Momentarily speechless.
"Say." Han Xiluo suddenly shouted in a deep voice, Han Xiluo is gambling, because the special features of these earrings are difficult for ordinary people to find, not to mention that they were in a panic environment at the time, it is even more impossible to find this difference.
The little maid's body trembled obviously, "Yes, it's the left ear." ”
"Are you sure?" Han Xiluo couldn't help but smile. Well, she won the bet!
But this smile seemed to the girl to scare her more than hell. "Yes, sure."
"Very good, Chen'er, go to Dongmei Garden and get the other earring."
"Yes." After all, Chen'er has been following Miss for so long, so she naturally believes that Miss has the ability to clear her grievances.
It's just that during the time when Chen'er went to take the earrings, the entire Luoxian Pavilion was a little scary. Everyone didn't dare to breathe, for fear that if one was not careful, their little life would be gone.
And Meng Xiaotian just stared at Han Xiluo, and that expression seemed to be like what tricks you could play!
Han Xiluo just stood there calmly and lightly, motionless.
After a while, Chen'er took the earrings, "Miss, here you go." ”
"You don't need to give it to the princess, just give it to the general." Han Xiluo didn't reach out to pick it up.
"Yes." Chen'er turned around and walked in front of Meng Xiaotian, and handed it over with both hands, "General, please." ”
Meng Xiaotian didn't know what medicine Han Xiluo was selling in this gourd, but he still took the earrings in Chen'er's hand.
"Please take a good look at the difference between these earrings." Han Xiluo motioned for Chen'er to hand the other earring on the maid's hand to Meng Xiaotian.
Meng Xiaotian took the two earrings, looked at them for a long time, and didn't find any difference, and couldn't help but say with a gloomy face: "Are you looking for fun with General Ben?" ”
"It's not that this princess wants to make fun of the general, it's that the general can't find it himself, please take a closer look at what is in this pendant?" Han Xiluo said lightly.
Inside the pendant? Meng Xiaotian took some more earrings in his hand and looked carefully into the earrings.
"Ahh This, this is incredible! Meng Xiaotian exclaimed, "There are two phoenixes with pre-spread wings engraved in these small earrings!" "Meng Xiaotian has never seen such a superb craftsmanship.
"Since the general can see the phoenix in this earring, then there is no need for this princess to say anything more." Han Xiluo was really grateful to the master who always liked to carve phoenixes in jade glass at this moment, and it was these two phoenixes that made the lies of some of them self-defeating.
After seeing the phoenix, Meng Xiaotian naturally understood the meaning of Han Xiluo's words, he was not a person who did not distinguish between right and wrong, "Bold and cheap, you dare to lie in front of this general!" The princess dropped the right earring, but you said that the left one was missing! Recruit this general from the truth, otherwise drag it out and beat it to death! ”
"Ahh The maid was already trembling with fright, and when she heard the beating of the stick, she screamed and fainted!
"Hmph, come on, drag me down!" Meng Xiaotian could not allow a cheap maid to be presumptuous in front of him.
The other two maids on the ground looked terrified, and they didn't know why the earrings alone could tell that the girl was lying.
"You don't know why the general can conclude that the servant girl is lying, do you? Hehe, this princess might as well tell you that this princess's earrings are engraved with a pair of phoenixes looking at each other, which means that the left and right sides of this pair of earrings cannot be replaced, and what you picked up is the right earring. Han Xiluo said slowly word by word.
"Then, it may be that the princess is wearing it upside down!" The maid, who had not shown any signs of being too flustered, quibbled.
"Oh, by the way, this princess forgot to tell you, under these two phoenixes, there is the surname of this princess engraved, but it is half on the left and right, and only when it is put together is the complete Korean character, do you think this princess will not recognize her surname?"
"Well, maybe it's too dark for her to see which ear it is?" The maid still did not give up.
"Oh? So how did she conclude that what she saw was the princess? And you, the princess's earrings must have fallen late last night? Do you find your words convincing? Han Xiluo said coldly.
"The slave did see the princess go out last night!" The maid insisted that although her words were indeed only one-sided, Han Xiluo had no evidence to prove that she hadn't gone out, did he? She met Han Xiluo's eyes without fear.
"Okay, then this princess will let you die more clearly!" Since she's going to kill herself, then don't blame her!
"Does the princess have any evidence to prove her innocence?" Although Meng Xiaotian is not as determined as she was at the beginning, Han Xiluo is the only one here who is from the Valley of the Medical God, and she has just come to the General's Mansion and has had a conflict with Yue'er, so she is still the most likely.
"Since it was said that it was not the poison of this princess, then the princess naturally has evidence to prove her innocence." Han Xiluo's body exuded a strong domineering aura.
I saw her slowly walk to the side of the bed, looked at the person on the bed and whispered: "The person who broke into the house last night and poisoned was indeed very smart and cautious, and it didn't seem to leave any traces at all." But after all, he came to do bad things, and there was always a time when Baimi was negligent, maybe he never thought that he would leave such an obvious evidence to clear the suspicion of this princess. ”
Han Xiluo did not directly state her findings.
"Don't be pretentious, princess, there is nothing in the eldest lady's room, let alone any evidence left!" Qing'er scolded sharply, Han Xiluo's calm and strong made her heart tremble, for fear that she would really find something.
"Oh? Are you sure? Han Xiluo's eyes suddenly became extremely sharp, and the Qing'er who looked at it trembled for a while.
"Since the princess has evidence to prove her innocence, please ask the princess to come up with evidence." Meng Xiaotian didn't want to wronged people, not to mention that this person was still the future princess.
"Okay, Sister Yue'er did come to my Dongmei Garden yesterday, and she was a little angry when she left, so I guess she started smashing things since she came back, right?"
"So what, it's because of your eldest lady that you're so angry!" Qing'er heard her admit that Meng Bingyue was really angry when she left, and she couldn't help but accuse with some confidence.
"That's right, Princess Ben guesses, this month's sister prefers to eat maltose." The corners of Han Xiluo's mouth pulled into a smile.
"This is something that everyone in the house knows." Meng Xiaotian spoke.
"That's good, when Sister Yue'er came back yesterday to smash things, she also smashed the jar of maltose in her room, so the maltose in it was poured out, and Qing'er, although you made sense of all the sugar stains and fragments, you ignored a place, and it was this place that left evidence that could prove the innocence of the princess." Han Xiluo said word by word.
"What?" Qing'er was suddenly a little stunned, impossible! She's already checked! How could it be!
The maid who knelt beside her and didn't make a sound anymore flashed a trace of ruthlessness in her eyes, and her sharp afterglow shot at Qing'er, Han Xiluo obviously felt Qing'er's despair.
Very well, she really instructed it? What is the origin of this maid? At the beginning, I felt that she was not an ordinary maid, and now I am more sure that all this has nothing to do with her, so who instructed her to do all this? Han Xiluo couldn't figure it out, and the most important thing he couldn't understand was where they came from with this poison! She's got to figure it out!
"Don't believe me? That princess doesn't mind letting you die too! An irresistible look burst out of Han Xiluo's eyes, and he stretched out his hand and pointed to the foot pedal in front of the bed and said, "The evidence is under this foot!" ”
"Foot down?" Everyone didn't know why, but Han Xiluo just looked at everyone coldly.
"Move the pedals out of the way!" Meng Xiaotian said in a deep voice.
The butler on the side stepped forward quickly and slowly moved his foot away.
"Footprints!? There are footprints under the footsteps! The crowd exclaimed.
"That's right, this foot hides the footprints of the real poisoner." Han Xiluo said coldly.
"How did the princess know that there were footprints left under this step?" Meng Xiaotian asked in surprise.
"The maltose that was knocked over last night should have fallen from this shelf, so the maltose will splash around, although Qing'er had already made sense last night, but on the right corner of Yue'er's sister's bed, there is still a little maltose sticking, which means that there may be sugar stains in this range in front of the bed. Looking at this pedal again, although the surrounding dust has been cleaned up, but because it has not been moved for a long time, the pedal has already left traces on the wooden floor, and now this trace is exposed, which means that the pedal has been moved. If the princess didn't guess wrong, the people who came in yesterday accidentally kicked over the pedal due to panic, and Qing'er didn't expect that there were sugar stains under the pedal, so he didn't clean it up, and the murderer naturally stepped on it, because he was in too much hurry, he just hurriedly put the pedal in a hurry, but he never thought that he still moved so much that the traces of the pedal were exposed. ”
Meng Xiaotian listened to Han Xiluo's analysis, he was already speechless in shock, he would never have thought that this unastonishing person from the mountains and wilderness could have such keen insight, and when there were both human and material evidence, he could find evidence to prove his innocence so calmly. What kind of woman is this! She seems to be a little scary! Powerful and terrible!
"Okay, do you need this princess to say anything? As long as people with eyes can not be difficult to see, this footprint is clearly a man's footprint, although only half, but the width of this foot is definitely not a woman can have, and because it was left last night, and the weather is a little cold, so this footprint has become hard. Han Xiluo said leisurely, "General, do you think this poison is still under this princess?" ”
"Even if there are man's footprints, it doesn't mean that the poison was caused by that man." The maid who found the earrings still said coldly.
"Oh? Then let me tell you, there is one more person who can prove the innocence of this princess. Han Xiluo patted the placket of his clothes and said, "Last night, this princess didn't walk out of the Winter Plum Garden at all, if you don't believe it, you can go and ask Qiu Xiang's girl, she has been teaching this princess embroidery in this princess's room last night." ”
"No, it can't be! Qiu Xiang's mother was sick last night, and Qiu Xiang and I went out of the house to take care of the eldest mother, and we didn't rush back to the general's mansion until dawn! After Qiu Ju finished speaking, she suddenly covered her mouth and sat on the ground.
And the maid on the side instantly turned to ashes, and she was also stunned.
