Chapter Eighty-Four: The Necromancer
Feidian hesitated for a moment, then took a step inside. There should be really chaos in Shangshu Mansion, and no one came to stop him.
Walking in the direction where the voice came from, Feidian finally saw the mirror standing in the corner with a sword in the backyard of Shangshu Mansion, and Fu Wan standing in the middle with a blue face, and Fu Wan with a frightened expression, hiding behind Fu Wan and holding Fu Wan's thigh. A large group of officers and soldiers dressed around, as well as the maids and servants of Shangshu Mansion, surrounded them.
Edden quietly walked to the mirror behind the crowd, pulled him, and asked, "Did something happen?" ”
Kagami was a little surprised, turned around and found that it was Feidian, and did not answer his question, but asked anxiously, "How is Your Majesty?" ”
"Your Majesty is fine, just rest and rest."
Kagami breathed a sigh of relief. In fact, someone had already come to tell him just now that His Majesty's illness had been cured, and he would stay in Shangshu Mansion all the time. But he still couldn't help but worry about Yin Sheng, so he blurted out Yin Sheng's safety.
"What's going on here? Those officers and soldiers don't look like people from Shangshufu. Feidian asked again.
Jing replied, "When I came just now, Lord Fu was reluctant to let me see that necromancer, saying that he was from Miao Jiang, he didn't understand the language, he didn't like to see people, and he was a person who had been recuperating from his body, so he didn't want me to disturb him. It wasn't until I said that it might be a matter for the safety of the people and His Majesty that he brought me over. ”
"And then?"
"Master Soldier, do you see that dark room over there?" The mirror pointed to the crowd, and the room was directly across from them.
There is only one door in this room, and there are no windows in the front, and the walls are all black, and I don't know what material it is made of.
"This house is so strange, is it the necromancer's residence?" Feidian's tone was devoid of any emotion, and he asked lightly.
"Yes, Master Advisor." Kagami replied politely and distantly, "Lord Fu said he didn't like to see the sun, so there was only a small window in the back of the room. ”
"And then? What happened? Feidian asked, "Otherwise, you wouldn't have returned to the palace so late." ”
"When Lord Fu went to knock on the door, no one answered, and I thought it was because the necromancer didn't want to see us. Because I was in a hurry to save His Majesty, I slammed the door open, and I could clearly feel that the door was locked from the inside at that time. Kagami replied, "When I opened the door, I found the Necromancer lying on the ground with round eyes and a dagger stuck in his abdomen, already dead. ”
"He was killed?" Feidian couldn't believe it.
"It looks like someone else should have killed it." Jing nodded, seeing him dead at that time, thinking that His Majesty was not saved, that desperate state of mind hit again, and Jing clenched his fists tightly.
"Do you know who killed it?" Feidian asked.
Jing replied, "At that time, I secretly told the Minister of Prisons and Prisons, and asked them to send someone to investigate immediately. They said that the murderer might be from Shangshufu, and said that the Son of Heaven was guilty of the same crime as the common people, and also said that if it was a child, he might be punished lightly, so Lord Fu is angry now. ”
"Every sentence is aimed at Fu Li." Feidian groaned, "If nothing else, you should have secretly told them to push the suspicion on Fu Li's body, so that Fu Li could expose his feet." ”
"Yes, Master Advisor." Kagami nodded calmly and replied.
"If it weren't for all the evidence of this plague pointing to Fuli, I couldn't believe that a child would kill someone. But when I think that he can even release Gu poison, there is nothing he can't do to kill people or something. ”
"That's what I thought too." Mirror said.
Feidian held his chin and thought for a moment, and said, "Where is the corpse of that necromancer?" I'd like to go over and see. ”
"The body hasn't moved, it's still in the room."
Feidian nodded, at this time, the officers and soldiers and the family were listening to Fu Wan's words, no one noticed him, and he and Jing happened to sneak to the room where the necromancer died.
After entering the room, Fei Dian first looked at this room, the window on the opposite side was pitiful, and he knew with his toes that if the murderer killed someone inside, and he couldn't get out of the door, there would only be this window, and the window was so small, it was obvious that only Fu Li could get out of the entire Shangshu Mansion.
Lightning looked at the corpse, which was still lying on the ground, bleeding all over the ground.
He crouched down and looked carefully at the knife on the corpse's abdomen, the handle diagonally downward.
Feidian pulled out the knife, this knife is very short, and the one inserted into the body is even shorter, and it stands to reason that such a shallow wound will not kill people. But if you look closely, there is a slight purple halo on the tip of the knife.
He picked up his knife and looked at the moon, and said, "This strange light must be some kind of poison." ”
"The wound is so shallow, it must not have been killed by a knife wound." Kagami said, "I should have died of poisoning." ”
"In that case...... Fei Dian put the knife aside, touched his chin and said, "The handle of the knife is diagonally downward, there are two possibilities, one is that the murderer squatted on the ground and stabbed up, and the other is that the murderer is short. The wound is so shallow, it should be that the murderer has no strength, and if he doesn't have the strength, he may be a child. There was no sign of a fight in the room, and the killer was supposed to be someone known to the necromancer. His look of surprise must have been that he didn't expect the murderer to kill him. The front door was locked, and the murderer had to climb out of the window through which he could only crawl out after killing him. ”
"So...... Everything points to that vicious child, Fuli. Kagami took his words.
Feidian nodded and said, "If you guess correctly, Yin ...... His Majesty's injuries are also inseparable from him, although I don't know why he wants to hurt His Majesty, but his purpose is very clear, that is, to kill His Majesty. ”
Mirror and Feidian looked at each other, their eyes were full of determination, and said, "I will not let anyone have another chance to hurt His Majesty, I will protect him with my own life." ”
Hearing this, Feidian was silent, and only after a long time did he speak, "Me too." ”
Kagami smiled, and then asked, "Then Master Commander, what are you going to do about this matter?" Tell Your Majesty? ”
"I don't want to tell him......" Feidian shook his head, "He's so smart, how could he not know that this matter is related to Fu Li, but after all, Fu Wan is kind to him, what can he do?" I can't make it difficult for him anymore......"
"I think that in Your Majesty's heart, those innocent people who died are more important," Jing said, "compared to the so-called kindness, etiquette is still the first place." ”
Feidian held his chin and thought for a while, and said, "Otherwise, you can go and talk to Fu Wan and see how he solves it." Isn't he a very loyal minister, maybe he will sacrifice his son for His Majesty, and send his son to the Prison Department on his own initiative. ”
"Good idea," Kagami praised, "but this kind of thing, it's better for the military master to tell Lord Fu, I'm just a guard with a knife, and it's not good to be too involved in these things." ”
Feidian: "......"
Sure enough, no one wants to do anything that offends people.
Kagami looked at Feidian with a look of nothing to say, and actually felt that he was not very annoying anymore, even if he sometimes had too much contact with His Majesty, it would not make him hate to look at him and not want to look at him.
Jing smiled, walked out of the room, and beckoned to a deputy Shi who was not very eye-catching over there to mention the Prison Division, and asked him to come over.
When the man saw the mirror calling him, he ran over without hesitation and asked, "Lord Mirror, is there something wrong?" ”
Kagami told him the result of the reasoning he had just deduced with Feidian, and said, "This is a rare opportunity to make meritorious contributions, if the adult tells this matter in front of the people who raised the criminal prison department, the future of the adult must be bright." ”
That Shi Chen looked incredulous, pointed at himself, and the mirror nodded to him, and said, "Go ahead, my and the military master's inference must be foolproof." ”
Shi Chen was a little excited, and immediately ran into the circle, and told all the things that the mirror told him about Fu Li's murder in front of him, and scratched his head a little embarrassed after speaking.
Feidian couldn't help but give a thumbs up to the mirror: You are amazing!
Jing smiled lightly, "Killing people with a knife was taught to me by His Majesty." ”
After listening to the minister, his face turned red, but what he said was reasonable, and he couldn't say a word because he was supporting it.
"So, Lord Fu, can we take Ling Gongzi away?" Mention the Criminal Prison Division, Master He said.
After a long time, he calmed down, pulled Fu Li, who was crying with pear blossoms and rain, to his side, and asked, "Li'er, did you kill this Miao Jiang pharmacist?" ”
"No, Daddy, it's none of Li'er'......" Fu Li touched his tears, choked up and said, "Li'er doesn't dare to kill people......"
"I heard you!" Fu Wan said, "My son is still a child!" Seven-year-olds! Which of you believes that a seven-year-old child can kill someone! ”
"Lord Shangshu," said Lord He, "but logically speaking, only Ling Gongzi can kill this person and escape......
