Chapter 154: Orchid Yingniang

"Poisoned to death!"

The prison was dimly lit, and the woman's frightened cries were heard intermittently, and I didn't know if she was mourning for Yan Nu.

When Yan Nu's body was lifted out, a fishy smell came to his nose.

Zhong Chi hurriedly covered his nose and said sullenly: "The rotting corpses are scattered!" ”

Yu Wenduan glanced at her in surprise.

Without an autopsy, he couldn't be sure that Yan Nu died of any poison, and Zhong couldn't even see the body clearly before he could judge it?

The corpse, covered with a white cloth, was carried to a slightly brighter place so that the officers could see more clearly when they performed the autopsy.

"Is it suicide or homicide?" Zhong Chi hid his nose and frowned, standing far away from the corpse, looking squeamish, and he still wanted to ask about this.

Yuwen thought about the strangeness of her sudden appearance, and still told her: "It was a suicide, but the prison was searched, and the poison was sent in later!" ”

"Dali Temple Prison is really well guarded!" Zhong Chi couldn't help but laugh.

Yuwen asked reluctantly, "What is the matter with Zhong Niangzi coming to Yan Nu?" ”

Zhong Chichi smiled and said, "Lift the cloth and show me!" ”

Yuwen subconsciously persuaded: "Dead people are not very good-" Halfway through his words, he closed his mouth and walked over consciously.

The people who died at her hands that night were much worse than this!

The white cloth covering the corpse lifted a corner, revealing the head.

Before the examination, the body still retained the appearance of dying, and it was impossible to look good, but it was not very terrifying.

The corpse will be completely decomposed within three hours of death, just dead and unspoiled.

In this way, although she is not a big beauty, she also has a bit of a posture, and it is not as Nai He said.

"Did she take off her makeup?" Zhong Chichi still covered his nose and asked.

"W-What?" Yu Wenzhu suspected that he had misheard.

Zhong Chi glanced at him.

"When a female prisoner is in prison, how can there be a reason for her makeup to be intact? It's all unloaded! Yuwen said inexplicably.

"Where do you think she's from?" Zhong Chi asked.

Yuwen was even more inexplicable: "Turtle people! The whole Chang'an knows! ”

Zhong Chi frowned and asked unwillingly, "There's nothing wrong with her appearance?" Could it be that she was wrong? Yan Nu's makeup is just for beauty? Without any cover-up?

"What do you think is wrong?" Yu Wenduan asked seriously.

This Yan slave already had a lot of suspicions, and now that he is dead, the suspicion is even greater, but with such a big suspicion, he is stunned and has no way to start.

"Yan Nu came to Chang'an at the end of last year, because of the good turtle Ziqu into the Chunfeng Building, there are a lot of turtles who come to Chang'an to make a living, and the people in the Chunfeng Building don't pay much attention to it!" Yu Wenduan took the initiative to provide some clues.

"Who owns Chunfeng Tower?" Zhong Chi asked casually.

Yuwen was silent for a moment and said, "My family's ......"

Zhong Chi was stunned for a moment, and said with a smile: "Your Majesty is really relieved of you!" ”

Yuwen was silent, his face was ashamed.

Zhong Chi Chi noticed his appearance, his eyes were dark blue, and there was a lot of stubble on his chin, as if he hadn't rested for days and nights.

It was because Li Changye was assassinated on his own turf that he tried the case so desperately.

Zhong Chichi smiled and said, "I suddenly had a conjecture, so I came over to take a look, and now it seems that I probably guessed wrong, so it won't prevent General Yuwen from trying the case!" As he spoke, he waved his hand at Yuwen and walked towards the door.

Yun Ding'an had been standing at the door, and after the corpse was carried in, he was ready to flee at any time, his little face was pale, and he didn't dare to look at the corpse.

At this time, seeing that Zhong was about to leave for a long time, he breathed a sigh of relief.

When he turned around, he casually glanced at Yan Nu's corpse.

This glance suddenly froze.

Zhong Chi Chi reacted the most keenly, and immediately stopped and asked, "What's wrong?" ”

Yun Dingan pointed to the corpse, looking confused: "She ......"

As he glanced at it, the body was covered with a white cloth.

Yuwen saw that he reacted abnormally, and hurriedly lifted the white cloth again.

Yun Dingan also forgot to be afraid, took two steps closer and looked at it again, and blurted out in surprise: "It's her!" ”

Without waiting for Zhong Chi to ask "who it is", he jumped up suddenly, pointed to the corpse, and said angrily: "It's her!" It's her! It's her! ”

A thought flashed in his mind, Zhong Chi Chi held down Yun Ding'an, who was thundering, and asked, "Yingniang?" Yan Nu is Yingniang? ”

Yun Ding'an didn't have time to answer, but his reaction was clear enough.

Clues instantly connect in the mind.

Yingniang, Orchid Yingniang, is the orchid who disappeared in the Yunjiaguo funeral banquet back then!

Back then, the Yun family was down, among them was the shadow of the Tubo people, this time she was led to the Chunfeng Building, and it was also related to the Tubo people coveting jade, this Yan slave - or Yingniang, is the Tubo spy!

However, if the Tubo people designed to lure her away in order to snatch the jade, then how would they know that she was looking for a turtle trick, or that she was looking for a helpless thing?

And that love letter......

Zhong Chichi's eyes sank, and he asked, "Did Du Qing come out over there?" ”

Yuwen shook his head and said: "Although Du Qing has contacted many people, he has never mentioned the lady to others, and the people he has contacted have also been ruled out, including Du Qing himself, the suspicion is very small!" ”

Zhong Chi was silent for a moment, and said in a low voice: "Actually, there is another person who also knows that I am looking for help!" ”

……

After sending Qiao Yu and Nai He away, Zhong Chi returned to Sijing Hall, and when he walked outside the door, he vaguely heard the word "dowry" mentioned inside, and he couldn't help but move in his heart, and walked straight to Xiao Huaibi's room.

When I walked to the door, I came across a domestic servant coming out of it.

"What's wrong with the dowry?" Zhong Chi Chi stood in the doorway and asked.

"The dowry from Changzhou was supposed to arrive two days ago, but the family stayed at the dock for two days, but they didn't receive the dowry-" Xiao Huaibi said as he rolled up his sleeves under the service of his entourage, revealing a skin as beautiful as a woman, "Maybe something happened on the road and delayed." ”

Zhong Chi looked at his arm intently, and Man Man smiled: "The new day set for you by Your Majesty is the day after tomorrow!" Will your dowry be delivered in time? ”

"Not necessarily." He said lightly, his slender white fingers dipped in water, as tender as green onions.

Zhong Chi looked away and said with a smile: "You won't deliberately withhold the dowry and not let it be delivered, right?" ”

Xiao Huaibi took the cotton towel handed by the entourage, wiped his hands, and said softly: "The lady said she was smiling." ”

Zhong Chichi was indeed just joking, and after laughing, he asked about others: "When will San Lang enter the museum?" ”

Yesterday, Xiao Huaibi had been awarded a bachelor's degree in Hongwen Hall, and it stands to reason that he could enter the museum today, but he is still at home today.

"His Royal Highness the King of the County is considerate, let me accept the levy before entering the museum." Xiao Huaibi said.

Zhong Chi Chi was a little disappointed.

Hongwen Pavilion is also in Daming Palace, there are guards in the palace, as long as Xiao Huaibi enters the hall, she can get out and pay attention to the interrogation results of Yuwen Xuan's side, otherwise, she can only wait for someone to send news.

When I was worried, someone came to the palace.

"Your Majesty gave a banquet to the county uncle of Jinyuan in the Linde Palace, and the king of Jiangling County is also there, and specially ordered the slave to invite Mrs. Zhong and Mr. Xiao to the palace for the banquet!" Gao Fu said with a smile, "Your Majesty said, the county uncle of Jinyuan is kind to Xiao Lang, and Xiao Lang will definitely enter the palace to see him!"

Zhong Chi couldn't help but ask, "Who is the county uncle of Jinyuan?" ”
