Chapter 125: Poisoning and Murder
"I'm sorry, ma'am." Tears fell from Mama Li's eyes, she stretched out her hand and held Zhao Yishan's hand tightly, as if she wanted to use her strength to make Zhao Yishan less painful, "Actually, the old slave didn't say it...... The old slave saw it...... I saw that the old man threw the girl into the pond in the north courtyard. It was a pond that Shen had when he bought it, and the water in the pond couldn't be drained, so the man must have died if he went down...... Yu adults...... Lord Yu ...... last night But I found Duan'er's ...... The old slave also knew that the old man had done a lot of hurtful things, and he would be accused one day, not to mention that the girl knew at a glance that she was from an official family, even if she was sold to be an aunt here, she was also a noble concubine, and the people guarding the door knew it in their hearts, and they might say it soon...... It is better to wait for the officers and soldiers to arrest people, implicate the wife in prison, and then torture to death...... It's better for the old slave to do this, so that the lady can walk more comfortably and suffer less sin. ”
Zhao Yishan's face was full of disbelief, how could this old woman who had been waiting for her for so long do such a thing, Mama Li actually wanted to kill her, so she poisoned the medicine, no wonder the taste of today's medicine is more bitter, and Mama Li still asked her to drink the medicine today!
"Mama Li...... I don't want to die...... I want to watch the old man die......" Zhao Yishan said with difficulty, she grabbed Mama Li's hand tightly, she panted hard, but the blood seemed to be gushing out of her body endlessly, blocking her throat and her nose, blood also flowed out of her nose, her eyes widened, she only felt as if she was drowning, and she was out of breath.
"Don't be afraid, ma'am." Mama Li hugged Zhao Yishan into her arms, "The old slave will accompany you...... The old slave knows...... Knowing that before tonight, something would definitely happen...... That man...... The letter from that year...... The old slaves all know...... He came again, and he said we're all going to suffer. The old slave will make this decision! ”
Zhao Yishan knew for the first time that Mama Li had seen the person who sent the anonymous letter, and even spoke, but today, more than three years later, the person who sent the anonymous letter appeared, and gave Mama Li such a terrifying warning, Mama Li knew that they couldn't hide, so she wanted to kill her and then commit suicide!
Zhao Yishan still wants to say something, because she is unwilling, she is not afraid of torture, she just hopes to see the fate of the negative Han Shen Chengye, but now she can't see it, so her eyes widened, and she died in Mama Li's arms.
Mama Li found that the person in her arms was not moving, so she let Zhao Yishan lie back on the Luohan couch, then straightened her clothes, turned around and saw that her slightly chubby and old face was pulled down by her, it turned out to be a human skin mask, or directly said that this Mama Li was not herself, but someone else's disguise.
The heavy clothes were taken off, and the bright red undershirt turned out to be wrapped around a lean body, and then there was a sound of bones expanding and contracting, and the body of that person changed from a small grandmother figure to a tall man, and then he took out the two steamed buns on his chest with one hand, and ripped off the wig on his head with the other, and finally recovered a charming young man with this difficult to distinguish between men and women between his eyebrows, if Jiao Yuzhen was here, he would definitely be able to call out his name, this is Qingyu!
Qingyu tidied up the clothes on his body, and breathed a sigh of relief after making sure that he was not stained with Zhao Yishan's blood, and then skillfully took out his clothes from a carved wooden cabinet in the room, and put on a black dark pattern embroidered surface, the background color is his favorite bright red robe, after putting on the clothes, he turned back to look at Zhao Yishan on the bed: "Anyway, they are all people who have done bad things, you should know that you will have such a day, and now that you are dead, you should have seen Mama Li." ”
Qingyu smiled slightly, then sat in front of the bronze mirror and combed his long hair very carefully, and then used a jasper hairpin to fix the bun, which looked a little loose, but it would not fall off, he looked at himself in the mirror with satisfaction, and was also very satisfied with his ten-day lurking, after all, it was not easy to use bone shrinking skills and disguise techniques to pretend to be an old woman, but he didn't expect to meet Jiao Yuzhen here, if it weren't for his help, Jiao Yuzhen would have drowned, but now...... He wanted to see what Jiao Yuzhen had the ability to come out by herself, if she couldn't come out, he would make a move......
"Madame, ma'am!" A female voice came from outside the room, and it was estimated that a maid had woken up.
Qingyu raised an eyebrow, and then jumped out of the window in the room.
******
Jimo and Ao came out of Zhao Yishan's room, and wanted to go to the Shen Family Dart Bureau to find Shen Chengye, but they always thought back to the Shen Family, the Shen Family Dart Bureau was not far from the Shen Mansion, if Shen Chengye grabbed Jiao Yuzhen and wanted to take it to the Shen Family Dart Bureau, it was very unrealistic, not to mention that Jiao Yuzhen would resist, and it would definitely be easy to escape halfway, and secondly, there were many part-time workers in the Shen Family Dart Bureau, as well as businessmen coming and going, there were many people, and no matter how you looked at it, it was not a place for Tibetans, so Jimo and Ao finally decided not to leave the Shen Mansion for the time being, but to go around in the Shen Mansion.
This Shen Mansion is the largest mansion in Tangliao County, according to the inquiry, three years ago, Shen Chengye bought three consecutive mansions here to rebuild, so there is the scale of the current Shen Mansion, so Jimo and Ao spent more than an hour here, but they did not find a clue about Jiao Yuzhen, until he found that there was a rather large courtyard in the north that was guarded by the family!
"Oh no, no!" A little boy who looked like a maid quickly ran to the front of a family member guarding the door of the north courtyard, "Brother Niu, madam...... Madame is dead! ”
The family named Brother Niu was startled and asked repeatedly, "How did you die?" Did you see that? ”
"I didn't see it, but there were a lot of people around the courtyard of Madame, doctors and officers and soldiers came, and Master Ding and Master Ding all arrived at the gate of the courtyard. The housekeeper said that I should inform everyone about this, and that I might have to be summoned for questioning later. '
"Madame has always been in poor health, even if she dies, it is not strange." The other family member said a little unconcernedly, "Is it necessary to work so hard?" There are not so many aunts in the house, and when the lady is dead, maybe Aunt Liu, who has always been good to us, can be corrected! ”
Brother Niu is a kind-hearted person, he shook his head gently: "Madam is also a kind person, why is there no such thing all of a sudden?" ”
"Madame did not die of illness, she was poisoned. Now the house is surrounded by officers and soldiers several times, saying that Mama Li doesn't see it anymore, and is searching the whole house, if it is proved that Mama Li poisoned her, our subordinates will be interrogated. The little girl's face was terrified, after all, he was still young, so he didn't do anything.
"What's ...... about us?"
"Mama Li is Madame's confidant, so she won't poison Madame." Brother Niu interrupted the words of the other family, and then looked at the little guy, "Don't be surprised, but inform others." ”
Jimo and Ao have been hiding in the shadows under the eaves on the side and listening to the conversations of those subordinates, and suddenly have a bad premonition in their hearts, he just talked to Zhao Yishan for so long, although he will not leave clues, but it is impossible for him to stun the maid in the yard without being discovered, but at that time, Mama Li didn't look like someone who was going to be poisoned...... No...... Wrong...... The bowl of medicine......
Jimo and Ao are not the first time to face poisoning, he was born in the royal family, and the poisoning of the harem has long been strange, but if you really want to poison and kill, it is naturally impossible to use such indiscriminate means, Mama Li is too obvious to poison in the medicine, she is Zhao Yishan's henchman, if you want to kill people, there should be more inconspicuous means, why do you want to do this......
Hearing a group of chaotic footsteps approaching, Jimo and Ao hurriedly flew onto the roof, bent down to hide their figures, and then saw Yu Gao walking over with a group of officers and soldiers, but Shen Chengye, who was following along, had a nervous look on his face.
"Lord Yu, this is the forbidden place in my mansion, there are people guarding it every twelve hours, and there will definitely be no suspicious people sneaking in." Seeing that Yu Gao walked to the door of the north courtyard with the officers and soldiers, and after the two guards hurriedly dodged, Shen Chengye had to step forward to stop Yu Gao's footsteps, "Lord Yu, this is the important place of my Shen family after all......"
"Brother-in-law." Yu Gaopi didn't smile, and spoke in a very enthusiastic tone, "You and I are both relatives, but for the sake of your safety, I have to search every place in the Shen Mansion, otherwise I won't be able to explain to your sister when I go back." What's more, you haven't been in Tangliao County for a long time, is there anything that my relatives can't know? ”
Hearing Yu Gao's words, Shen Chengye knew that if he was still biting and biting, he would definitely be suspected, and if he didn't let them go in to search at that time, he would want to leave the seal, and these people were all here to find the murderer who poisoned Zhao Yishan, since they were looking for someone, then they would definitely not find anything else.
With a decision in his heart, Shen Chengye nodded and turned sideways: "What my brother-in-law said is that my brother-in-law is also here for my wife, and I must not let my wife die in vain. ”
Shen Chengye said this to explain the reason why he repeatedly prevented Yu Gao from coming to search, after all, as long as it is a rich and noble family, the sacred building or the temple is a very important place, and non-direct descendants cannot enter, let alone let the officers and soldiers search. Shen Chengye's explanation convinced most people, but Yu Gao's expression was clearly not convinced, but he didn't debunk it, but waved his hand and let the deep officers and soldiers go into the north courtyard to search.
The area of the north courtyard is actually quite large, not inferior to the courtyard of the main mother Zhao Yishan, and the pavilions, small bridges and flowing water, quite have the special charm of the rich and noble people in the south of the Yangtze River, but there is no one living here, so it seems a little bleak, the pond that is paved with thin frost because of winter is a lonely taste, and the fish shadow can not be seen through the thin frost, maybe there is no fish here at all.
Yu Gao stood in the courtyard, and after a while, the officers and soldiers had already searched all the houses in the north courtyard and came to report, there was no one here, let alone any clues related to the murder.
Yu Gao frowned slightly, and then turned around and entered the wing room opposite the pond, this wing room is the main room in the north courtyard, which is very clean, but there are no furnishings, let alone daily necessities, so it seems that there are indeed no people living here, and it doesn't look like who will be imprisoned here, but this is not the most important purpose of his coming here!
Yu Gao walked to a calligraphy and painting hanging on the wall of the room with Shen Chengye's somewhat nervous eyes, and moved the calligraphy and painting seemingly at random, but found that there was nothing behind it.
Shen Chengye breathed a sigh of relief silently, thinking in his heart that if these people were here to find the secret room, they would naturally go to find some calligraphy and painting behind to see if there was a secret grid, but how could the dark grid here be so easy to find? There are secret rooms here, but they are not above ground, nor are they underground!
Yu Gao didn't find what he was looking for, and his heart became irritable, the anonymous letter said that there was a huge secret in the north courtyard of the Shen family, so it led to Zhao Yishan being poisoned, and Shen Chengye was about to cover up Zhao Yishan's death......
