Qin Zu came, and as soon as the words came out.

The room was full of surprise!

This time it was really shocking!

Han Min looked confused.

Wei Zheng's eyes widened.

Li Chengqian also couldn't believe it.

Li Chengyi is a squire in the Criminal Department, but he is a confidant of the crown prince Li Chengqian, and he is loyal to Li Chengqian.

How could he be the one who mended the knife?

How could he be a murderer?

Li Chengyi's face changed for a moment, but he soon said with a smile: "Lord Qin, you really know how to joke, you are too worried, how can this official be a murderer?"

"Lord Qin, don't frame this official because he helped His Highness upset you before, it's not good. ”

"You must know that whether it is the motive or anything else, there is no need for this official to take action against His Royal Highness the Crown Prince's nurse. ”

"To commit murder, you need to have benefits to obtain, this lady who killed His Royal Highness the Crown Prince will not find any benefit to this official at all, Lord Qin, you must think about it more. ”

Everyone turned their attention to Qin Zulai again.

Qin Zulai seemed to have known that Li Chengyi would say this, and his expression did not change.

He said: "Master Li's methods are really superb, and more importantly, his calculations are basically perfect. ”

"If it weren't for someone from me, Qin, to investigate this case, maybe Lord Wei would really be framed to death, even if Lord Wei could overturn the case in the end, then His Royal Highness the Crown Prince would be blamed for it, his reputation would be affected, and it would end bleakly. ”

When Wei Zheng and Li Chengqian heard this, their faces changed drastically.

Li Chengyi said: "Lord Qin, it's not casual to talk about the case, it's useless to say more, since you said that this official is the murderer, what about the evidence?"

"Where is the evidence? Judgment is not just a matter of words!"

"That's right, Qin County Order, we'...... Do we have proof?" asked Han Min with some uncertainty.

Lu Qinzu smiled and said, "The evidence is naturally there, let's come one by one." ”

"Yesterday, Qin Yi invited Lord Wei to his mansion for official reasons, and later Lord Wei found out that Qin Yi was interceding for His Royal Highness, and Lord Wei was angry, quarreled with Qin Yi, and then brushed his sleeves and left. ”

"And after Lord Wei left, you appeared, appeased Qin Yi, who was also angry, and then killed him with a knife while Qin Yi was not paying attention. ”

"After killing Qin Yi, you followed Wei Zheng to the Cheng Family Restaurant, and secretly observed the nurse's calculation of Wei Zheng. ”

"But who knows, when the nurse committed suicide halfway through, she was scared, she regretted it, and she didn't want to die, so you jumped in directly from the window, killed the nurse, planted the blame on Wei Zheng, and then left secretly. ”

"In this way, the murder of Qin Yi and the murder of the nurse are all perfectly covered on Lord Wei's head, making it difficult for Lord Wei to distinguish between them, and finally being a scapegoat for you!

When Han Min and the others heard Qin Zulai's words, they couldn't help but be a little shocked in their hearts.

If this is really the case, then Li Chengyi has really done too much in order to let Wei Zheng take the blame.

But Li Chengyi sneered: "This is all your one-sided words, and it is completely your random speculation." ”

No, all my inferences have always been justified. ”

Qin Zu said: "Why didn't Qin Yi invite him early or late, but invited Wei Zheng on the day when his subordinates were resting? In fact, you have to cut off all the roads of Wei Zheng. ”

"You are the confidant of His Royal Highness the Prince, Qin Yi is the son of the prince's nurse, and he is naturally close to you and trusts you, so as long as you casually talk about the prince's distress because of Wei Zheng in front of him, and induce it slightly, Qin Yi will naturally think of interceding with Lord Wei. ”

"If you say that His Highness's current situation is very urgent, then Qin Yi will naturally want to intercede with Wei Zheng as quickly as possible, like this...... The day or even the hour when Qin Yi looks for Wei Zheng is completely under your control. ”

After Qin Zulai said this, Li Chengqian's expression at this time also changed.

Originally, Li Chengqian thought that Lu Qing was trying to frame Li Chengyi, but now he ...... Thinking about it this way, there is indeed only Li Chengyi around him who can make Qin Yi trust him so much.

Qin Zulai said again: "Qin Yi's corpse has also been examined by the official, and the knife edge is diagonally upward, obviously assassinated! And he still has no trace of struggle, which shows that the person who killed him was not guarded at all, and he was not defenseless at all, so it was like this." ”

"So, combined with these, do you think you are suspicious?"

Li Chengyi's face also changed a little, and he said: "As long as this kind of thing is done by the people of the East Palace, they can do it, and they are all suspicious, why do you have to keep an eye on me? I am not the only one who can do this." ”

Qin Zulai nodded and said, "It's true that you're not the only one, so I want to ask." ”

"At the time of the two cases, Master Li ...... Where are you?"

Li Chengyi said: "The official is resting at home. ”

"Can anyone prove it?"

"The official was too tired the day before, and occasionally felt cold, so he needed to rest quietly and no one disturbed him...... However, the people in the palace can know that the official has not left the house. ”

"That means no one can be sure that Master Li has been in the room all along. Qin Zu said.

Li Chengyi frowned and said: "The official said that the subordinates can prove that the official has not been out of the house." ”

"Really, I'm a little curious then......"

Qin Zu said: "Why did someone see an adult near the scene of the crime at the time of the crime. ”

"What?"

Li Chengyi was stunned for a moment, and then he said: "Nonsense, it's complete nonsense." ”

"Nonsense?" Qin Zulai clapped his hands and said coldly: "Come on, bring witnesses up." ”

Soon several beggars were brought up.

Qin Zu said, "Look at this person, have you ever seen him near the Qin Mansion and the Cheng Family Restaurant?"

The beggars glanced at Li Chengyi carefully, and then nodded one after another.

"I saw him, and he was wearing a hat, and people couldn't see his face, but I knelt on the ground and asked for food, and I looked up just in time to see him. ”

"I also saw that he went out from the back door of the backyard of the Cheng Family Restaurant, I was still wondering at the time, and I thought he was the new buddy of the Cheng Family Restaurant, I had never seen him when I went to the Cheng Family Restaurant to ask for food before. ”

These beggars all spoke one after another.

Li Chengyi's face changed completely, and he said: "Nonsense, you are all nonsense! Your Highness, don't believe them, they must have colluded to harm me!"

But at this time, Li Chengqian ignored Li Chengyi, he looked at Qin Zulai, and said: "Even if Li Chengyi appears near the scene of the crime, it can't prove that he is the murderer, right? ”

Qin Zu said: "Indeed, it may also be that Master Li is confused and misremembered. ”

"Then I have one question left. ”

Qin Zulai suddenly walked up to Li Chengyi, looked at Li Chengyi's hand wrapped in white cloth, and said meaningfully: "Master Li, can you explain how your hand hurt?"

Brush it up.

Li Chengyi didn't know what he thought, and his face changed suddenly.

............

"Wounds?"

When Han Min and the others heard Lu Qing's words, they all hurriedly looked at Li Chengyi's hand.

Sure enough, Li Chengyi's right hand was wrapped in a white cloth, and the white cloth was infected with some dark bloodstains, so he was really injured.

It's just that they hadn't paid attention to it at all before, so Qin Zulai didn't say it, but no one had this impression.

Han Min asked: "Qin County Order, the lower officials don't know, is there anything wrong with Li Chengyi's injury?"

Qin Zu looked at Li Chengyi, whose face had changed sharply, smiled lightly, and said lightly: "Naturally, there is no problem with the wound, who is not affected by the injury?" It's just that the reason for this injury may be a little problematic. ”

"The cause of the injury?" everyone was stunned.

Prince Li Chengqian's eyes fell directly on Li Chengyi's body and asked, "How did you get hurt?"

Li Chengyi's eyes flickered, and he said, "I was accidentally scratched at home and scratched, what's the matter? Lord Qin, isn't this official even allowed to be injured?"

"Injuries at home?"

With a chuckle, he didn't answer Li Chengyi, but looked at Li Chengqian and said, "Your Highness, Li Chengyi hasn't left His Highness's side since the incident happened yesterday, right?"

Li Chengqian didn't understand what Qin Zulai meant by asking, but he still replied: "That's right, after I heard about the nurse's accident yesterday, I immediately called him over and asked him to help me investigate. ”

"After that, he was either with me, or stayed in the East Palace and never left. ”

Qin Zulai nodded, looked at Li Chengyi again, and said, "So, you haven't had a chance to destroy the decisive evidence yet, right?"

"What?"

Han Min was blindsided.

"Qin County's order, what is the decisive evidence? Why does the lower the official not understand it the more he listens to it? ”

It's not just Han Minmeng.

Wei Zheng or Li Chengqian.

Now they feel that they are mentally retarded, obviously Qin Zulai understands every word, but when they are connected, they don't understand what Qin Zulai is talking about at all.

Drunk, really drunk.

Li Chengqian's face was not good, and he said: "Qin Zu is here, sell less guanzi, what is going on?"

Now Qin Zulai has concluded that Li Chengyi is the murderer, and he has been selling Guanzi, which is really hateful!!

Qin Zu looked at Li Chengyi's pale face and knew that everything was as he expected.

Li Chengyi is really Li Chengqian, and Li Chengqian is defeated!

He said, "Lu Thirteen. ”

"In. ”

"Go, search Li Chengyi's body. ”

When Lu Shisan heard this, he didn't hesitate and walked towards Li Chengyi.

Seeing this, Li Chengyi was shocked and said: "Stop, Your Highness, this is the East Palace, do you just let Qin Zu come and they are so arrogant?"

But Li Chengqian frowned and looked at Li Chengyi, thought about it, and said: "You just let them search, if the final result is that Qin Zu came to frame you, don't worry, I will definitely not let Qin Zu go." ”

When Li Chengyi heard this, he suddenly showed a miserable smile.

He was still struggling, but at this moment, after hearing Li Chengqian's words, the expression on his face changed one hundred and eighty degrees.

He glanced at Li Chengqian coldly, and sneered: "You really inherited the cold-blooded viciousness of your Li family, I have followed you for five years and been your dog for five years, but in the end, it can't compare to the words of a person who has just clashed with you!"

"What did you say!?"

Li Chengqian listened to Li Chengyi's words, his face darkened, and he suddenly shouted: "Li Chengyi, do you know what you're talking about!?"

Li Chengyi didn't even look at Li Chengqian again.

He turned his head to look at Qin Zulai and said, "No need to search, I really don't have a chance to destroy it." ”

While speaking, Li Chengyi took out a cloth bag from his arms and handed it to Lu Shisan.

Lu Shisan hurriedly handed the cloth bag to Qin Zulai.

"Lord Shaoqing, what's in here?" Han Min hurriedly came over.

Qin Zulai threw it to Han Min and said, "Open it yourself and see it." ”

Han Min didn't say a word, and hurriedly opened the cloth bag.

Then he found out that what was in the cloth bag was actually a bead hairpin—more precisely, a broken pearl hairpin.

And the bead hairpin is also stained with blood, which looks shocking.

"Zhu Hai?" Han Min's brows furrowed into a Sichuan character: "My lord, is there anything wrong with this Zhu Hai?"

Qin Zulai didn't answer Han Min, but looked at Li Chengqian and said, "Your Highness, come and see if you recognize this pearl hairpin." ”

Li Chengqian hurriedly walked over.

After a closer look, his face suddenly changed.

"It'......," he said. This is what I gave to the nurse, this pearl hairpin is specially made by me, there is only this one in the whole Datang, but it ...... How could it be here?"

"Li Chengyi, the nurse's pearl hairpin, why is she here? What the hell is going on, you say!"

Li Chengqian suddenly pulled Li Chengyi's collar and roared angrily.

Li Chengyi pushed Li Chengqian away rudely, he tidied up his clothes, and ignored Li Chengqian, who was jumping on his feet.

Instead, he looked at Qin Zulai and said with a complicated expression: "When did you suspect me, and when did you confirm that it was mine?"

Everyone also looked at Qin Zulai.

From beginning to end of this case, Li Chengyi didn't seem to have anything to do with it, so how did Qin Zulai lock his eyes on Li Chengyi?

Qin Zulai said calmly: "In the case of the murder of the nurse, you deliberately designed to frame Wei Zheng, I have to say that you have done a good job, it is a complete secret room, and it is also the scene where people and stolen goods are obtained." ”

"It's just that when you left the scene to create the secret room, you left a clue. ”

"What clues?" asked Li Chengyi.

Qin Zu said: "The window lock of Meiyuan is a latch, I think when you leave the window, in order to create a secret room, you should tie the head of the latch with a thin wire, and then after you close the window, pull the thread hard, and the thread will be broken, and the latch will fall down by itself, and the window will be locked, forming a secret room." ”

"But you didn't notice that the thin line slid the wood of the window, leaving traces, and this let me know that Wei Zheng was framed. ”

"So at that time, I began to take my suspicions away from Wei Zheng and started looking for others. ”

Li Chengyi sighed: "That mother-in-law was afraid of death at the last moment and didn't want to die...... So I had to make a move, otherwise, I would have left such a clue in a hurry. ”
