Ji Qingyi approached her again and asked, "What's your name?"

The maid lowered her head even more, but her tone was still very respectful and said, "The slave is called Yuqing."

Ji Qingyi nodded, this name can be regarded as very gentle.

Ji Qingyi asked again: "Then how are you staying in Zuo Shilang's mansion?"

Although the maid named Yuqing said that she was a little puzzled, she still replied, "It's okay."

Ji Qingyi nodded, and without saying anything, he pulled Xiao Jin and walked to the back door, Na Yuqing glanced at them, and consciously continued to work.

After Xiao Jin and Ji Qingyi walked into the backyard, Xiao Jin looked at Ji Qingyi and smiled: "What? I want to dig into the corner of the wall in 9. ”

Ji Qingyi glared at him angrily and said, "I just looked at that maid sensible and asked a few more questions."

Xiao Jin stepped forward, leaned over and said in her ear, "If you want me to help you come over."

Ji Qingyi shrank his head, took two steps forward and said, "I don't need your help."

Xiao Jin also followed and said, "That's what you want?"

Ji Qingyi didn't bother to take care of him, so he walked to the well and forgot to look inside. Seeing this, Xiao Jin grabbed one of her arms and said, "Be careful, this well is not safe."

Hearing this, Ji Qingyi squatted down and said, "That's good, right?"

Xiao Jin also squatted next to her and said, "What can you see?"

Ji Qingyi looked inside the well, she tilted her head and thought about it: "Did he provide any clues other than the time and cause of death?"

Xiao Jin thought for a while and said: "Also, the murderer should not have much strength, and the others can't provide any clues, this is a mistake at first glance."

"Murder by mistake?" Ji Qingyi frowned and said, "I don't think so."

Xiao Jin also frowned and said, "Why not?" If you look at the scratches on the side of this well, you can tell that it fell accidentally. ”

Ji Qingyi leaned inside and let Xiao Jin look at a bloodstain on the side of the eaves: "Maybe the housekeeper fell in at the beginning because he stumbled, at this time the murderer originally wanted to pull him up, so there was a frictional blood stain on the eaves, the murderer could have saved the housekeeper, but he let go of the housekeeper's hand at the last moment, and then, death was caused."

Xiao Jin frowned and looked at the bloody scratch, looked at her with a little appreciation, and said, "I didn't expect you to restore the scene, I really didn't bring you to the case file in vain, and I didn't mention this matter at all."

Ji Qingyi wanted to laugh a little, the ancient case-solving techniques were too unprofessional. She stood up and looked around again, but she didn't find anything unusual, she turned around and asked Xiao Jin, "How are you investigating that little guy named Qi'er?"

Xiao Jin also stood up and walked to her side: "It's still in Dali Temple, but after investigation, it was revealed that the little man named Qi'er at that time had an alibi, so the suspicion can basically be cleared."

Ji Qingyi was originally looking down for clues, but when he heard this, he frowned and asked, "What proof does he have an alibi?"

Xiao Jin put his hands behind his back and said, "At that time, this Qi'er was still sleeping in Zuo Shilang's room."

Ji Qingyi twisted his eyebrows and thought about it, then walked to the side of the well and looked inside: "Do you say that there is such a possibility, the housekeeper did not fall to his death all of a sudden when he fell into the well, he may have fainted, but because the rescue was not timely, he died." The difference between the time of falling into the well and the time of death is one or two hours. ”

Xiao Jin thoughtfully walked to the well and took a look, and found that there was indeed only a small amount of blood in the well, indicating that it was not to the extent of killing with one blow at that time. The sharp-eyed Xiao Jin suddenly saw a few dark scratches on the edge of the bottom of the well, not obvious but much longer, he waved his hand at Qingyi and said, "Maybe your inference is right, you see, there are man-made scratches at the bottom of this well."

Hearing this, Ji Qingyi walked over, squinted and looked at it carefully, and wondered, "Why didn't I see it?" I can't see it clearly. ”

Xiao Jin turned his head to look at her and said with a smile: "You can't have bad eyes, how big are your eyes?"

Ji Qingyi rolled her eyes, no, your uncle, she is obviously just short-sighted, who would have thought that wearing it on an ancient person would still be short-sighted. Ji Qingyi ignored him, and left the backyard on his own, preparing to go to Dali Temple.

Xiao Jin, who was following behind, snapped his fingers and arranged something with the secret guard, so he hurriedly followed and said, "Where are you going?"

Ji Qingyi waved his hand angrily: "Dali Temple."

When Xiao Jin heard this, he was not in a hurry to find her, and followed her slowly. After Ji Qingyi came out, she looked at the street in front of her and was a little stunned, she didn't know where the specific location of Dali Temple was. turned around to look at Xiao Jin, who knew that Xiao Jin put his hands on the back of his head and walked leisurely behind, Ji Qingyi shouted at him twice: "What are you inking, hurry up!"

As soon as Xiao Jin saw that this little girl was losing her temper, he quickened his pace and walked over: "What, miss me?"

Ji Qingyi thought to himself how could he be so shameless, and he didn't pay attention to his question, and said to himself: "Go to Dali Temple."

Xiao Jin knew that she didn't know the location of Dali Temple, so he leaned over to her and whispered, "Can't you find the way?"

Ji Qingyi shrunk his neck, turned around and looked at him angrily: "You don't talk nonsense, you know why don't you hurry up and lead the way in front!"

Xiao Jin stepped forward and hugged her waist, leaned into her ear and chuckled, "Do you need some reward?"

Ji Qingyi rolled his eyes and stomped on him: "Reward!"

Xiao Jin frowned painfully, but he still didn't let go of Ji Qingyi, he smiled deeply: "I originally wanted you to kiss me, but I definitely don't want to look at you like this."

The corners of Ji Qingyi's mouth twitched, and his eyes rolled and smiled: "Yo, you are quite self-aware, don't let me go quickly!"

When Xiao Jin heard this, he put the arm that was holding her into his arms again: "I won't let you kiss me anymore, it's not okay for you to call me a husband."

Ji Qingyi thought to herself that you are a prince, and you are not ashamed to hold a woman in public, and you still want to hear what kind of husband, she has never talked about it when she is in love with such a big relationship, let alone let her say such things. So Ji Qingyi slowly turned around, pressed his instep with his foot expressionlessly, and said expressionlessly: "If you don't go to Dali Temple, then I will go home."

Xiao Jin, you see that this girl is different from other girls, not to mention being so principled, she is also very strong, and she has caught up with her own lawless sister. Although I wanted to see her call herself a husband very much, but I had no choice but to be in a hurry, so I took her hand and walked forward seriously: "Come, take you to Dali Temple for your husband."

Ji Qingyi's personal mood is quite complicated: "......"

To be honest, the imperial capital is quite big, and Ji Qingyi followed Xiao Jin for a while before walking to the place. As soon as I saw Dali Temple Ji Qingyi, I felt an inexplicable sense of solemnity, Ji Qingyi patted Xiao Jin's hand and said, "Every time you come to Dali Temple, do you feel cowardly?"

Xiao Jin looked at her funny and said, "Why should I be cowardly in my heart?"

Ji Qingyi said again: "Isn't this Dali Temple an institution dedicated to punishing officials and relatives of the emperor for crimes?"

Xiao Jin looked at her and pinched her ears: "Where did you hear that?" It has changed since the time of the first emperor, and in addition to punishing the emperor's relatives and relatives, the cases related to officials are also handled together, otherwise why is the murder case in the Zuo Shilang's house accepted in Dali Temple? ”

Ji Qingyi nodded suddenly in realization, and said to Xiao Jinnu, "Then let's go in and see that little guy named Qi'er."

Although Xiao Jin was very awkward to hear her say this, he couldn't find anything wrong, so he pulled Ji Qingyi into Dali Temple. As soon as he entered, Ji Qingyi saw that He Qingyi and his father Jing Zhaoyi He Huaishen were also there, so he couldn't help but smile at him with some embarrassment, this He Huaishen saw Ji Qingyi smiling at him, and was a little flattered to her: "Lord Jin, send girl."

Xiao Jin nodded and said, "Is that suspect Qi'er still locked up in Dali Temple?"

He Huaishen nodded, and said according to his words: "Back to the prince, he is still under trial."

"But what's the result?" Ji Qingyi stepped forward and asked.

He Huaishen frowned, stroked his beard and said, "No, there doesn't seem to be any doubt about this Qi'er."

Ji Qingyi and Xiao Jin glanced at each other and said, "Let me go in and try."

He Huaishen looked at Xiao Jin, and when he saw Xiao Jin nodding slightly, he led the way for the two of them. After the two of them entered, the messenger who had been interrogating inside came out.

Ji Qingyi looked this little man named Qi'er up and down, his eyebrows were delicate, his face was not powdered, but he was probably frightened, he looked unusually pale, and his lips were also pursed.

Ji Qingyi sat opposite Qi'er and said lightly: "You went out that night, but when you were ugly?"

Xu didn't expect to ask Qingyi about this, Qi'er lowered his head a little flustered and said, "I never went out, I stayed in Zuo Shilang's room until dawn before waking up."

Ji Qingyi frowned, it is estimated that he has said this to those officials hundreds of times. Ji Qingyi stood up and walked to him, put his hand on his shoulder, and said slowly: "But, we went to Zuo Shilang's mansion just now, why did someone say that when I was ugly, I saw you walking out of Zuo Shilang's room, and your movements were still very gentle?"

This Qi'er's eyes widened suddenly, revealing a look of surprise and panic: "This, this is impossible!"

Ji Qingyi bent down and leaned into his ear and said: "When the next person was still talking ugly, I heard the sound of someone arguing in the backyard, if these two clues are put together......"

Ji Qingyi deliberately raised his voice and said, "Then you are the most suspicious person."

In fact, Ji Qingyi is also blind, she just relied on reasoning to feel that if the time of the housekeeper's death and the time of falling into the bottom of the well are inconsistent, then it is very likely that this Qi'er is using this time difference to create an alibi.
