Volume 3 Edge Chapter 6 Strange Things (5)

"How?" Seeing Imperial Physician Lu get up from Concubine An's corpse, Chun Xi hurriedly held back his nausea and took two steps forward to ask.

Imperial Physician Lu shook his head, and the group looked at him suspiciously. Thinking that he couldn't find the reason, he was about to turn around with a sigh, when he heard Imperial Doctor Lu say again: "The cause of Concubine An's death is really strange, there are many scars on the surface, but almost all of them are caused after death. And there are many scars on his body, and he should have fought with people before he died. But the strangest thing is that there is a poison in her body, and as for what kind of poison it is, it still needs to be examined to be clear. ”

When Chunxi heard this, she was at a loss again, but after thinking about it carefully, she understood: "Her kung fu is not weak, if someone wants to kill her, it is normal for her to resist and fight with others." This murderer's martial arts should not be weak, I don't know who it is. The fact that she was poisoned is also reasonable. Maybe it's because of the poisoning that hallucinations appear. ”

"She used to hallucinate?" Hearing this, Imperial Physician Lu hurriedly asked.

Chun Xi nodded and told me about last night's events. Imperial Physician Lu listened thoughtfully, but did not see him speak again. Chun Xi wanted to ask, but was stopped by Han Ji.

"Let Imperial Doctor Lu think about what is going on, I'm afraid he is also confused. It's not clear now. ”

Han Ji's words made Chun Xi calm down and step aside.

At this time, there was another commotion outside, and soon I saw Zhang Pengrong hurriedly walking over with a few people.

"Say hello to Concubine Yi." Zhang Pengrong walked up to Chunxi, called a thousand, and said respectfully.

"Let's get started." Chun Xi raised his hand and motioned for him to get up: "This time I'm going to trouble Master Zhang again." "At the beginning, if it weren't for the fact that there was an errand in the Ministry of Rites, which allowed Zhang Pengrong to go up, he would still be in the Criminal Department, which would be good. He is honest and honest, and he judges cases like a god, and the Criminal Department is very suitable for him. Now that I'm on an errand in the Ministry of Rites, I'm a little condescending. It's just that there is no suitable position now, otherwise, once this case is solved, he will definitely be promoted again.

"It is the duty of Weichen to do things for the emperor and his mother." Outside, Zhang Pengrong is always polite. It was not easy for Chunxi to talk to him much, so after explaining a few words, he stood farther away with Han Ji and Imperial Doctor Lu.

Zhang Pengrong brought it over, checked it carefully, and it was consistent with what Imperial Doctor Lu said.

Zhang Pengrong personally inspected the dry well and the surrounding environment, but found nothing.

In the gap between the waiting and waiting of them, they heard a commotion outside. Soon, Concubine Tong Guifei came over with a group of concubines.

was supposed to be watching a good show, but when they saw the corpse of An Concubine lying on the ground, with a terrifying and disgusting appearance, many people panicked.

Only Concubine Tong is still calm, and the concubine next to her is the same as no one.

Seeing this scene, Chun Xi saw it in her eyes, and pondered it in her heart: Presumably, the death of An Concubine has nothing to do with the two of them.

It's just that what Chunxi doesn't understand is why Concubine Tong would attack her own people. Concubine An has always listened to her very much, although she is a little rude, but in front of Concubine Tong, she doesn't dare to make a mistake. Besides, Concubine Tong has An Concubine in hand, which should be advantageous, why did she suddenly become like this?

It's like she has a deep hatred, and if she dies, she will add so many scar scars to her body.

Xu is relieved, Duan Concubine, who had been hiding behind Concubine Jing, poked her head out, pointed at Chunxi, and said tremblingly: "It's you, you killed her." ”

Chunxi is not surprised by such accusations, and has become accustomed to them. It seems that whatever happens in the palace, someone will have to relate them to themselves. In addition, when she came to the cold palace last night, she met her halfway, and there was nothing wrong with her suspicions.

Chunxi didn't speak, and looked at the frightened Duan Concubine calmly.

"What are you talking about?" Concubine Tong scolded: "How could Concubine An be harmed by Concubine Yi." ”

"Last night, on the way back to the palace of the concubine, I met her." Concubine Duan didn't know if she was bold, or if she really wanted to be upset for Concubine An, and said indignantly: "She and the palace maid named Fu'er are sneaky. At that time, he also scared the concubines. When I asked her where she went, she didn't say anything, and her behavior was very strange. appeared at the scene of the murder again so early today, who else could she be? It must have been that she killed An Concubine last night, and she rushed in front of everyone early this morning to destroy some evidence. ”

"Sister Duan's words are not unreasonable." Concubine Jing next to her suddenly interjected: "Concubine An knows kung fu, it's not easy to kill her." ”

"Yes, Concubine Yi has never been on good terms with Concubine An, and it is strange to travel in the middle of the night. It was planned to come so early the next day, right? If you kill someone, you are afraid of leaving evidence, so you will come to check it at dawn. When Concubine Duan heard Concubine Jing say this, she became more confident, her volume was much louder, and she no longer hid behind Concubine Jing and moved out.

Chun Xi sneered, this implication is that she has an enmity with An Concubine here, and she knows kung fu, and the person who can kill An Concubine is the only one who can kill her.

"Such a ridiculous thing can only be made up by two mothers." Han Ji snorted coldly and said with a smile.

Concubine Tong raised her head, glanced at Han Ji, and did not speak.

Concubine Jing also smiled: "Lord Han, this short protection is not a good habit. Let's just talk about our own opinions, here, it is indeed Yi Concubine who is the most suspicious. ”

"Really?" Han Ji covered her mouth and laughed, brushed off her sleeves, and walked in front of An Concubine's corpse: "Then I still bother you to understand that this An Concubine's death is somewhat similar to the death of Tong Guiren?" I heard that when the nobles died, Yi Concubine was with all the mothers. ”

"So what? Perhaps, this is someone imitating the death of the nobleman. Concubine Jing sneered.

"Yes, it's a parody." Chun Xi opened his mouth and said: "The deaths of An Concubine and Tong Guiren are so similar, but there is one difference. When the nobles died, in addition to being scratched and disfigured, these knife wounds, the body was clean. But what about An Concubine? You see, it's like someone has been ravaged severely. I don't get along with Concubine An, but it's just noisy, and it's not to the point of killing, right? ”

Although Chunxi guided everyone to see An Concubine's body, many people had palpitations and didn't dare to look over.

"Yi Concubine's words are a bit far-fetched, right? Tonggui was powerless, and when he was killed, he was in a clean place like Qixiang Palace. It's so dirty and messy here, it's not surprising that An Concubine would be like this. Jing Concubine was quite dissatisfied with Chunxi's statement.

"The mother said that the mother is reasonable, but the truth is not yet known. Whether the main palace came out last night or not cannot prove anything. Who can guarantee that no one else has been here secretly? He said again.

"Yi Concubine, this is admitting what happened last night?" Concubine Tong seized the gap and immediately asked.

Chun Xi sneered: "Admit it or not, does it matter? Even if I had been here, I would not have been able to prove that I had killed people. No matter how big the hatred between me and An Concubine is, it can't be proved that I am the murderer. Moreover, last night, when I returned to the palace, my clothes were clean, not even dusty. This kills someone, no matter if it doesn't splash blood, but An Concubine looks like this, and the murderer is no better. ”

"Clean clothes, huh! Who can prove this? Duan Concubine snorted coldly.

"I can prove it." Xuan Ye had been standing behind them for a long time, and he heard how they slandered Chun Xi. I wanted to see how Chunxi answered, but I didn't expect that this group of people would not let her go at all.

"Your Majesty." Hearing Xuan Ye's voice, everyone came back to their senses and said goodbye.

"Last night, I was in Yikun Palace. I can prove the fact that the time when Yi Concubine returned to the palace and the fact that there was not a trace of dust on her body. Xuan Ye didn't scream, but spoke loudly for Chun Xi.

Chun Xi secretly rejoiced in her heart, she had already seen Xuan Ye's figure in this direction. When he said that, he really wanted to exonerate himself. After all, when she went back last night, Xuan Ye happened to be in her palace. Otherwise, I won't be able to get rid of the suspicion of murder today.

Although he knew that Xuan Ye would help him speak, but at this moment, hearing him say it in person, it was a different state of mind. She didn't have time to be happy, because as soon as Xuan Ye's words fell, she saw that Duan Concubine was not afraid of death and said: "Your Majesty, if you can't keep it, Concubine Yi changed her dirty clothes on the way back to the palace." ”

"Then do I want to send someone to bring you the robe I saw last night to show you, is it the one you saw?" Xuan Ye glared at her and said expressionlessly.

Duan Concubine was stunned, she never thought that Xuan Ye would be so biased. was unwilling, and said: "Your Majesty, this matter is too strange, and Concubine Yi is the most suspicious." She herself admitted that she had been here last night, so why couldn't this murderer be her. ”

"The concubine you saw last night, but she was wearing a black robe? A black cape with a hat on the outside? The cloak is also embroidered with a lotus pattern? Xuan Ye ignored her words and asked rhetorically.

Duan Concubine was even more confused, and she didn't know what Xuan Ye meant: "It's dark this day, where can I see the patterns on it?" Besides, if it was Yi Concubine, she would have prepared exactly the same ...... long ago."

"Okay, you can't see the clothes clearly, so can you see this?" Xuan Ye walked up to Chun Xi and ripped a jade pendant from her waist. This is their love thing, something that they stay with them every day and never leave them. And this jade is transparent, even in the dark night, as long as there is a trace of light, it can be seen clearly.

When the concubine saw it, this was stupid. She recognized this jade pendant, and she saw it last night. Such a conspicuous thing could be seen even if Chun Xi only stood in front of her for a moment.

Seeing that Concubine Duan stopped talking, Xuan Ye already had an answer in his heart, and turned to look at Zhang Pengrong again: "When was Concubine An killed?" ”

Zhang Pengrong immediately turned around and called the servant behind him to step forward and reply.

"Back to the emperor, according to Weichen's experience, he examined Niangniang's body in detail. It is determined that he was killed last night. He stepped forward and replied.

Imperial Physician Lu also came out from behind Han Ji and replied in front of Xuan Ye: "Your Majesty, before Lord Zhang came, Weichen also examined Concubine An's body, and it can also be confirmed that Niangniang died last night. ”

After hearing this, Xuan Ye laughed: "But when I saw Yi Concubine last night, it was just after Hai. Later, Yi Concubine has been with me all the time, do you still think Yi Concubine has a chance to kill An Concubine? Besides, this jade pendant has always been worn on her body, and when she returned to the palace, she was also clean, could it be that when she was killing, she still had time to deliberately take off the jade pendant and hide it, so as not to be defiled? ”

Xuan Ye's words made everyone present dare not speak, and they all fell silent for a while. (Palace's Gate.. /31/31987/)--
