Chapter 140: Confusing
When Qingshan and Yanyun were still in a daze, He Xiaoxiao had already jumped up, and her round face was full of surprise, "Is it possible...... It's all a ploy of the East Palace! ”
She suddenly remembered that in her dream, she had vaguely heard others say that the former prince of Chu State had used a murder case to get rid of the eighth prince, so that the eighth prince would no longer have the possibility of taking the heir. It's just that she was in Da Zhou at the time, and she didn't care about what happened in Chu State, if she could ask some details at that time, she wouldn't have been stuck in a dead end and fell into such an imminent situation now.
"That's right. Whether the Eighth Prince took Wang Xiaoer or Zhou Carpenter to the palace to reveal the truth, it would be a crime of bullying the king, because they were not real murderers. ”
Luan Wen's appointment to play chess with Luan Ziyi in Shen Shi is to capture people's ingenious psychology. All of this was controlled by Donggong behind the scenes, and Wang Xiaoer was a smoke bomb at the beginning, the purpose of which was to make them convinced of the fact that Carpenter Zhou was the murderer.
Luan Wenzhi knew Luan Ziyi's character very well, so he made a special appointment with Shen, knowing that he would explain everything to His Majesty when he entered the palace to show his ability. Others, because of the urgency of time, some small issues simply do not have time to be repeatedly scrutinized, and hastily regard Carpenter Zhou as the murderer.
Whether it was Wang Xiaoer or Carpenter Zhou, they were only induced by the East Palace to investigate step by step, and this bureau was obviously carefully considered by the Wang family and many guests in the East Palace, and there was almost no flaw at all. If it weren't for the two children who happened to pass by to remind her of the candy ball, I'm afraid she would have been calculated.
Everyone else is not stupid, after thinking about it, the whole reasoning just now has been overturned, and there are really many doubts that have been missed by their negligence.
Qingshan Yanyun and the others hurriedly took people to chase Luan Ziyi and prevent him from entering the palace to explain everything wrong to His Majesty.
……
"It's really dangerous, when Qingshan and I arrived, His Royal Highness Eighth had already gotten off the sedan chair in front of the dismount monument."
"Yes, His Royal Highness didn't believe it at first, and insisted on entering the palace, but later his subordinates wanted that His Royal Highness was really stubborn all the time, so they used a poisonous needle to knock him out."
After coming back, Yanyun and Qingshan both shouted that they were happy, and the two people who were originally not dealing with each other were extremely harmonious at this time.
During this period, Su Qingcheng made some inquiries to Carpenter Zhou. Carpenter Zhou didn't say a word, and repeatedly said that he had indeed killed someone. But when asked who he killed, Carpenter Zhou couldn't speak.
"Could it be that the carpenter was bought by the East Palace this week?" It's not early, and a slight sleepy look appeared on Yanyun's gorgeous and amorous face, "What women are most afraid of is going to bed late, you can afford to wait, I can't afford to wait." ”
As he spoke, he picked up a wave-breaking drum in his hand, threw it directly in front of Carpenter Zhou, squinted his eyes and said, "You have a son, I wonder if he has left Nan'an safely and arrived in Sihe County now?" ”
With the sound of the breaking wave drum falling on the ground, Carpenter Zhou heard the words like a thunderbolt, and suddenly pulled out of the broken jar just now, his face was full of shock, he pointed at Yanyun in disbelief, and asked in a trembling voice, "You, how do you know?" ”
Yanyun repaired his index finger smeared with bright red dancome, and opened his lips as if inadvertently: "The little wave breaker has been around for a few years, and the pattern on it is a sparrow, and there is no such style in Nan'an City, and the place where the sparrow flower is abundant is Sihe County." And there are traces of children's drawings on the walls of your house, so if you don't tell the truth, your child will become a corpse in Sihe County. ”
"I'll say it all!" Carpenter Zhou was like a deflated ball, and the whole person had no resistance just now, "I didn't kill anyone, I really didn't." A few days ago, I heard that a lot of ginseng grows on the North Mountain, but there is a bully who has taken it for himself and sent someone to guard it, so I went to find some to pick some secretly at night. Outcome...... That night, I met the snake spirit who protected the ginseng, and he told me that there would be a bloody disaster in three days, but as long as I was sure that I was the murderer, I could save the day. And also gave me a small ginseng and asked me to rent Wang Xiaoer's car and come back the next day, but when I arrived, he was gone......"
"Snake spirits?"
Carpenter Zhou nodded, "It's scary, with a blue face and fangs, and he also told me that if I told me today, I would definitely die, so I didn't dare to say it." ”
Jiang Cailing shook her head, where is this snake spirit, it is clearly a bureau set up by Luan Wenzhi, deliberately making them suspect that he is the murderer.
It is said that ghosts are scary, but what is even more terrifying than ghosts is the human heart.
The amber pupils in Su Qingcheng's narrow eyes turned, and he spoke faintly, "So, we were all deliberately misled, thinking that this was a murder case of transferring corpses...... The truth is still in the inn! ”
Yanyun raised her hand and yawned, showing the woman's coquettish and lazy gestures, "Go ahead, I'm going to go back to sleep in the beauty and sleep, and remember to tell me if I find it again tomorrow." ”
Su Qingcheng didn't speak, obviously acquiescing to Yanyun's departure. This scene fell in Jiang Cailing's eyes, which was quite meaningful, Yanyun had always appeared as Su Qingcheng's right-hand man. I thought that it was because of my martial arts skills and beauty that Su Qingcheng was left by his side, but from the analysis of Carpenter Zhou's son just now, it can be seen that his ability cannot be underestimated.
A subordinate can talk to Su Qingcheng like this, and the twists and turns in it make Jiang Cailing always feel a little curious.
However, now is not the time to discuss this, except for Yanyun, everyone else rushes to the post house non-stop.
At night, the inn is particularly quiet, heavily guarded, and the atmosphere is very solemn.
Walking to the scene of the crime, the deceased had already cleaned up to other places, the room was faintly filled with the smell of rotting corpses, Du Nianyu's face was pale, and he ran under the tree to vomit while covering his nose.
Su Qingcheng patted her back worriedly, "Your body has always been weak, you can't stand this kind of scene, otherwise I'll let Qingshan send you back." ”
"It's okay, I can." Du Nianyu pushed Su Qingcheng away, and it was rare to show a trace of negative emotions, she was really angry with her body.
At this time, He Xiaoxiao took a hemispherical plaster and put it in her hand, and when the lid was opened, the cool smell of grass came to her face, making Du Nianyu, who had no energy, feel less uncomfortable all of a sudden.
Du Nianyu raised her eyes and looked at the figure standing against the light, and she didn't know what it was like for a while, so she habitually said softly: "Thank you, Niangniang." ”
Jiang Cailing didn't look back when she heard this, and continued to look for clues.
The scene has not been passive, and under the strict defense, it is still the same as yesterday. The light at night was not very good, and everyone carried octagonal lanterns and looked for clues in the room.
Du Nianyu did not do less when she was by the queen's side, even if she did not have any blood on her hands, but as the queen's henchman, she would participate in almost everything the queen.
Du Nianyu walked to a round pier that fell to the ground, and compared to the other messy things in the room, the round pier closest to the deceased's location did not fall to the ground. took out a white handkerchief and gently rubbed it on the surface of the round pier, and the white silk was immediately stained with a layer of loess.
Lianbu moved lightly, and wiped on the surface of other stools that fell to the ground, except for the slight floating ash, there was no loess, Jiang Cailing saw Du Nianyu's movements, and saw that she was frowning and thinking about something seriously, so he walked to her side, "What did you find?" ”
"Only this stool has loess on the surface of the warehouse, and there is nothing else in the warehouse - that is, someone has ever stood on this stool."
"Someone has ever stood on this stool."
The two of them spoke in unison, causing the rest of the room to look at it.
Jiang Cailing convened the steward here, "Will your guys stand on this round pier and take vegetables?" ”
The study manager shook his head, "Our boss is a clean-loving person, and if he picks up the goods, he will use a special shelf." ”
Sure enough, there is something wrong with this round pier!
"Nianyu, you're amazing!" Su Qingcheng walked up to Du Nianyu and praised happily.
Du Nianyu had a smile on her face, her eyes were watery, and she said humbly: "It's good to be able to help you." ”
Jiang Cailing didn't have the heart to look at the loving scene in front of her, her brain was spinning rapidly, and she lowered her head to think about something.
Suddenly, the dark brown powder on the ground attracted Jiang Cailing's attention, squatted down, and gently dipped some powder with his fingers under the lamp to look at it carefully.
It's like sawdust.
At this moment, there was a sudden commotion outside the door, and a person who looked like a guard hurriedly came in and said, "Your Highness the Ten, the big thing is not good, there was another murder in the private room of the Mei Zihao, and the deceased was almost the same as the previous deceased!" ”
"Serial murders?" He Xiaoxiao couldn't help but blurt out. Everyone in the room had different expressions, even He Xiaoxiao, who had always been at ease, looked solemn, let alone Qingshan.
Jiang Cailing and Su Qingcheng glanced at each other, this case was far more tricky than they expected. Arrived at the scene as quickly as possible, this time the deceased was a resident of the inn, who had lived here a month ago, and many of the guys in the inn knew him.
The cause of death was exactly the same as Anonymous's, there were obvious strangulation marks on the neck, this time the murder weapon was supposed to be a piece of cloth, and the production restriction was also turned very messy, but there was no loss of property, and it was almost certain that the same person had done it.
Took the rope in the room, this rope is the murder weapon, but this time the rope is not still in other places like last time, but is placed on the table, Jiang Cailing frowned lightly, in this guarded post house, how did the murderer kill people?
Su Qingcheng had a calm face, "Who was the first to discover the deceased?" ”
"Back to His Highness the Tenth, it's small."
"You're you again?" Su Qingcheng half-narrowed his eyes, "Last time was also the first time you discovered it, and this time too, is there really such a coincidence in the world?" ”
