"The master's play is really good, just like this, the prince will investigate the case according to the trajectory we arranged before." Zi Yao sent Queen Chen away and entered the house, looking at the princess who was distracted and looking at the back of the prince who had already left.

Mu Xuefu turned her head, looked at Bai Yi, and said, "That also needs Bai Yi's cooperation." ”

Bai Yi smiled sweetly, bowed, and said, "Which is my good cooperation, it is clearly the master's brilliant plan." The master deliberately bought spices everywhere on these days, which naturally attracted the attention of the people around the prince. And there are very few people who know about this spice, of course the prince will want to try his luck here with the master, so that he will not fall into the master's arms. ”

Mu Xuefu was as gentle as jade, and walked out of the side room lightly, her purple skirt crossed the door of the red Ruyi auspicious cloud pattern, as calm as clear water passing through a stone. She fiddled with her fingers and muttered, "The murderer who killed King Pingjun will be arrested in three days at most, Marquis Jingyuan, I have wronged you this time." Others, I don't worry, only you, King Chen, can go all out to investigate the case, I won't really harm the person who once helped my Mu family speak. ”

Jing Rong found the spice shop on the street as Bai Yi said, but when they arrived, it was already empty. There was nothing left in the shop except a pile of spices.

Jing Rong punched the spice bag and said angrily: "It's a step too late, and all clues are broken." ”

Chasing Xing watched the spices fall from the eyes of the bag and poured it on the ground, and he had an idea, and said: "I heard that there is a hunting dog in the Criminal Department, with a very smart nose, and even the corpse that has been buried in the ground for more than ten years can be smelled. Maybe it can distinguish this incense better, so it is better to go to the criminal department to borrow the dog, and let it follow the fragrance and maybe find some clues. ”

"You're getting smarter." Jing Rong's face was slightly pale, and he glanced up and down at him, and said.

Chasing stars was still a little embarrassed to be praised by the prince, scratched his head, and said, "It's all taught by the prince." ”

Star Chasing already has a baby face, and although he is eighteen, he looks like a fifteen-year-old child. Coupled with this stupid appearance, Jing Rong couldn't help but laugh.

Jing Rong shook his head helplessly and ordered, "Don't go quickly." ”

As soon as the master commanded, the star chaser immediately returned to normal, arched his hand and left the spice shop. When he brought the hounds, he was not the only one, but he came back with a man and a dog.

The person holding the dog was not stunned when he saw Jing Rong, and after saluting respectfully, he said without saying anything or humble: "See the prince, after listening to the eldest brother of the guard, Lord Shangshu told the ins and outs of this matter, and also asked people to check the dart on the neck of the deceased, and found that the dart also had the aroma found by the prince, so he sent a villain to assist the prince with the majesty." ”

Jing Rong took a good look at him, then looked at the dog again, and asked, "It's called Weifeng?" Did you raise it? ”

"Back to the prince, yes, Lord Gu sees that the majesty is powerful, and the majesty only listens to the villain's words, so even the villain with the majesty has been accepted into the criminal department." The little official didn't dare to look up at the legendary first beautiful male prince, but a pair of eyes fell on his silver silk lotus-patterned white boots.

Jing Rong let out a "hmm", made a look and asked Yue Feng to hand the dart to the little official, and said, "Let it smell it and see if it can be tracked." ”

Sure enough, after smelling it, he called out three times, and then led the little official out.

Chasing the star raised his eyebrows, watched the hound walk by, looked at the prince, and looked inquiring.

Jing Rong pondered for a moment and ordered: "Go and ask Lord Gu and Lord Lu, don't look back and say that we fabricate evidence." ”

The group followed a dog, and this kind of thing was quite funny, but if there was a king of Chen, no one would dare to laugh.

Wei Feng kept his head down and sniffed on the ground like foraging, but it seemed to be looking aimlessly, but Lord Chen didn't speak, who would dare to question it. Until I walked out of the city and came to an empty agricultural suburb, I stopped in an instant when I walked majestically. He sat on the ground and didn't leave, but his head was looking around, as if he was alert, and his dark eyes swept around sharply. Suddenly, it screamed a few times, and rushed out before the people could react, and the little official ran after it as if he knew it was going to run out.

Everyone reacted and followed directly, because they were all martial arts practitioners, so they fell to the ground almost at the moment when they stopped running. At this time, Gu Mingxu and Lu Liangzhen also rode over.

The majestic "Wangwang" screamed again, this time obviously more ferocious, like a blue wolf ready to attack at any time, looking at the courtyard in front of him with fierce eyes.

"Lord Wang, it should be here." The little official touched the head of the majestic man to show appeasement, and then said to King Chen.

Jing Rong understood, stretched out two fingers and gestured to the person behind him, "Go in and have a look." ”

About five or six people cautiously entered the courtyard, looked around, inspected around, and replied: "Lord Wang, there is no one in the courtyard." ”

"Let's go inside and have a look." Jing Rong commanded again.

As soon as these people entered the house, someone ran back and reported: "Lord, there are three corpses in the farmhouse. ”

Jing Rong frowned, and walked in three steps and two steps. looked at the few black-clothed people lying on the table, and their expressions became more and more solemn. He reached out to probe the deceased's snort, touched the temperature of the corpse again, looked at the bowl on the table, and said in a deep voice: "The corpse still has residual warmth, but it has already become stiff, and it should have died around Yin Shi." ”

Chasing Xing handed over a piece of Jinpa, and said: "Gyeonggi Wei searched the city all night, who would have thought of a farmhouse on the outskirts of the city." ”

Jing Rong wiped his hands vigorously, and even the white bone joints were wiped red by him, "Let's see if there are any clues on his clothes." ”

Several people from the Criminal Department searched the body of the deceased and found that each person had several darts from Xiao Mansion on them.

Looking at the dart head, Jing Rong said, "Let the majesty smell it." ”

Sure enough, the majesty screamed even more when he smelled the darts.

"It seems that these people are the murderers of King Pingjun." Gu Mingxu looked at the wine on the table, asked someone to take out a silver needle and try it, and the silver needle immediately turned black, "Lord Wang, this wine is poisonous." ”

Jing Rong snorted coldly, and his handsome face instantly swept by, and said, "Search their bodies to see if there are any clues?" He turned his head to meet Lu Liangzhen, looking at the corpse with a shocked expression, and raised his eyebrows, "Lord Lu knows them?" ”

"No-no-no, how can these rogues know each other?" Lu Liangzhen was frightened by this low voice, his face turned pale instantly, he was stumped, and his voice trembled a little.

There was a sharp flash in Jing Rong's eyes, his deep gaze seemed to see through his heart, his expression was cold, his eyes were cold, and an invisible sense of oppression lingered above Lu Liangzhen's head.

Just when Lu Liangshan felt that he was overwhelmed by this gloomy momentum, Jing Rong smiled lightly, his voice was full of charm, but it was even lower, "Since Lord Lu doesn't know them, how can he know that they are rogues?" ”

"Xiaguan is looking at what they are wearing, plus they live in such a remote place, naturally they are no different from rogues." Facing King Chen's shuddering and powerful aura, Lu Liangzhen's heart was in his throat. He gasped and replied tremblingly.

Jing Rong looked at him deeply, probed, pondered for a moment, and said with a smile: "Lord Lu is worthy of being a person who has worked in this position for so many years, and sure enough, this observation is extraordinary. Then tell me why these rogues died here, and why do they have the same murderous weapons on them as they did when they killed King Pingjun? ”

Lu Liangzhen looked up at the corpse, and then cautiously looked at King Chen's expression, and said cautiously: "I'm afraid that the assassination of King Pingjun was done by these thieves." ”

Gu Mingxu sniffed the smell of poison on the silver needle and said, "Then how do you explain that they were poisoned and died?" ”

"Maybe they're just killers who kill themselves when they complete their mission. Isn't there a Netherworld Pavilion on the rivers and lakes? Maybe it's the people in there. Lu Liangzhen rolled his eyes and said.

Gu Mingxu waved his hand and retorted: "It won't be the Underworld Pavilion's doing, everyone knows that although the Underworld Pavilion has its own systematic killer organization, they have always acted above board and will not blame others." Leaving a murder weapon engraved with the logo of Xiao Hou's Mansion like this is definitely not in line with the work of the Underworld Pavilion. ”

"Then now the case seems to have broken off the clue again." Jing Rong raised his steps and circled around these killers, stopped, slowly squatted down, kept his gaze on the same level as the table little by little, narrowed his eyes, pointed to a position, and said, "Look, there are four cup prints on this table." Now there are only three cups, that is, the other cup should have been taken. At this moment, we can still see the imprint, indicating that someone must have used the cup last night. The wine in the cup overflowed, and it was sprinkled exactly one circle around the rim of the cup before leaving a mark on the cup. ”

"In other words, it is very likely that someone drank wine with them after the successful assassination of King Pingjun, and the other three cups were poisoned, or they were all poisoned wine, but someone did not drink it." Gu Mingxu condensed his eyebrows and speculated, stroked his palm, looked at King Chen, and said, "Master Hou was there in the Criminal Department last night, so this person must not have been sent by Marquis Jingyuan." ”

Lu Liangzhen pouted and shook his head, stretched out his hand and shook it in front of his eyes, and said: "Lord Gu's speculation does not prove that Jingyuan Hou is innocent, maybe he sent someone over, or maybe the killer is four people, and they don't share the money evenly, so one of them has a murder plan." ”

"That doesn't prove that Marquis Jingyuan did it." Gu Mingxu's eyebrows sank slightly, and his face was a little ugly, although this Lu Liangzhen's official position was not higher than his own, but he was Jing Zhaoyin, in charge of the Beijing Division, and he was favored by the emperor, and he didn't even pay attention to him, which was really unreasonable. He flicked his sleeves fiercely, snorted coldly, and ignored him. Instead, King Chen arched his hand and said, "It's better to carry this corpse back to the Punishment Department first, and then see if there are any clues in this room, and then ask the prince to decide." ”
