After getting up, Xia Ye'er walked by herself for a while, but it was too boring, and at this time Xiao Cheng came over:

"What's the matter, girl?"

"It's nothing, it's just too boring." Xia Ye'er said with her hands behind her back.

Life that was already so boring was suddenly broken one day.

"Yes, there are dead people, right here, in the bamboo forest in Miss Ye'er's yard."

It was supposed to be a calm day, but it was broken because of the corpse of a dead man.

Yu Hua was not in the palace because of the arrangement of troops outside, so all the things could only be solved by Yu Yan alone.

Yu Yan didn't dare to slack off, and hurriedly took the eunuch forward, Xia Ye'er and the personal maid were not there, and everyone quickly dragged out a young male corpse from the bamboo forest.

Although it was stained with a lot of mud, he still recognized it at a glance as Tian Jie, the only son of Tian Shan, the secretary of the ministry, and Yu Yan's face changed instantly.

In addition to the shock, there was also a lack of understanding, and before he could take emergency measures, he heard a report from his subordinates, saying that Lord Tian had come with Lord Yuan from the Criminal Department and a large group of government officials.

"Lord Tian, this is the inner courtyard of the palace......"

Yu Yan hoped that Tian Shan would be able to be a little measured, but when he saw that Tian Shan's face was tense, he didn't speak, so he walked straight to the courtyard without him.

He looked at the corpse on the ground and shouted:

"Come on, fence up the Tai Hospital, and no one is allowed to leave until you get permission!"

"Tian Shan!"

Yu Yan also frowned, this is the inner courtyard of the palace, how can he break into the palace without permission, and dare to fence it here, is this a rebellion?

However, Tian Shan turned a deaf ear, strode into Xia Ye'er's boudoir, and when he saw that there was no one, he issued a gloomy order:

"Arrest the people who live here, and I'll interrogate them myself."

"This king is here, when will it be your turn to interrogate him personally?"

Yu Yan asked loudly.

Although Tian Shan was very angry and distressed, he was still afraid of Yu Yan's status.

"What's going on, why are there so many people?"

Xia Ye'er had just come back from outside, her face was still red and hot, and she looked cute, but everyone was holding a cold sweat for her.

"She's the owner of this courtyard!"

At this time, a little palace maid ran out and said, as soon as a voice fell, two officers and soldiers came up, one left and one right, to force Xia Ye'er to kneel, where had Xia Ye'er been treated like this, so she turned around, and one of them gave a slap in the eyes.

"You murderer, don't kneel down if you commit a crime!"

An officer and soldier with a beard shouted roughly, but Xia Ye'er skipped him and squinted at the middle-aged man who had been staring at her with an unkind face:

"Dare to ask if it is a crime for you to trespass into the palace?"

"What a sharp-toothed little girl!"

Tian Shan sneered:

"You are so cruel that you killed my only son and buried you in the mortuary, and I will arrest you today to comfort my child's soul in heaven."

"My lord, you can't talk nonsense, I haven't seen Tian Gongzi in the past few days, so why do you want to kill people?"

Xia Ye'er noticed that things were abnormal, and her face became very serious.

"You lie, the palace maid in the palace who was serving in the Tai Hospital said that I saw Tian Jie and you having an argument in your yard yesterday, and he died today, who else is it you? The evidence is conclusive, and I have to forcibly quibble, come on, bring my miserable child over! ”

Only then did Xia Ye'er see clearly that there was a male corpse lying on the straw mat, looking very young, with a deep strangulation mark on his neck, obviously strangled to death with a rope, and finally suffocated to death.

"The person was found in the bamboo forest in your courtyard, what else do you have to quibble!"

Tian Shan saw his son's tragic condition again, and his heart became more and more sad and angry, and he couldn't wait to arrest Xia Ye'er and kill him now:

"Come on, don't you hurry up and arrest this woman for me!"

"Wait,"

Xia Ye'er's eyes were sharp,

"Just because the corpse is in my place, you say that I killed the person, which is too far-fetched, what if someone else killed me and blamed me? Lord Tian, if you want to condemn me for this, aren't you afraid of being smiling and generous? ”

"Your Excellency,"

A man with a beard on his chin walked out, looking like a man,

"After judgment, there are no traces of the body moving from elsewhere at the scene, and it is obvious that this is the scene of the crime, so there is no case of throwing the body and planting stolen goods." Seeing that everyone was looking at him, he continued: "The cause of the deceased's death was that he was strangled alive with a thick hemp rope, and the strangulation marks were semi-arc-shaped, and there was more than one, so it can be inferred that the murderer's body should be smaller than the deceased's, and the perpetrator's strength was less than that of the deceased, so the murderer should be a woman. I have just found a little powder from the mouth and nose of the deceased, and that powder has the effect of causing people to gradually lose their minds. So I guess that's how it should have been. ”

He called a person taller than him and asked him to act as Tian Jie, while he pretended to be the perpetrator. He first let the man inhale some medicine that would cause a coma, and then made him close his eyes under the pretense of joking, and then he suddenly strangled the deceased's neck tightly with a thick hemp rope, and the deceased kept struggling, pulling the thick hemp rope with his hands, and he was a little struggling, and the position of the strangulation kept sliding up and down, but in the end he strangled the deceased.

"Your Excellency, please take a look."

He pointed to the strangulation marks on the man's neck, which were almost the same as Tian Jie's wounds.

"This is what we found in Miss Ye'er's house,"

A small official came up with a covered tray, and the white silk handkerchief was opened, and there was a thick hemp rope and a hairpin inside, the inside of the hairpin was hollowed out, and a thin layer of medicinal powder could be scraped off the inner wall. ”

The thing was found in Xia Ye'er's room, and the figure of the man was similar to Xia Ye'er, and now all the evidence pointed to Xia Ye'er, but Yu Yan still felt that this matter was very strange.

The person will definitely not be killed by Xia Ye'er, but who wants to blame Xia Ye'er, and, the key is that this person knows that Xia Ye'er has returned.

"As a member of the palace and a distinguished guest of the palace, but he knows the law and violates the law, come and arrest Xia Ye'er for me!"

At this time, a majestic voice belonging to the youth came from outside the crowd, but it didn't know when it came, and now it was the king of Zhengjun and the prince of Yuhua, and everyone knelt down, only Xia Ye'er looked at Tian Shan quietly.

"Lord Tian, I know that you are sad to lose your beloved son, and you want to bring the murderer to justice, but there are many doubts in this case, and the evidence just now seems to be reasonable, but it is also a little untenable, if you are hastily convicted like this, I am afraid it will be difficult to convince the public."

Saying that, Xia Ye'er walked quickly to the corpse and squatted down, Xiao Cheng screamed and was about to go over, but was stopped by Yu Hua, and he walked to Xia Ye'er's side by himself.
