358 Two homicides
Qi Lingyun fidgeted in the room, the night was already very deep, and she still couldn't sleep.
My cousin gave an ultimatum that the family would have to leave here tomorrow.
She knew that this time her cousin was furious and couldn't tolerate them.
But she still wanted to try again, one last time, and never had a chance again when she left. If her cousin rejects her again, she will die and will not be delusional.
Having made up his mind, Qi Lingyun pushed open the door and walked towards Rong Zhao's courtyard.
Yunlai Xiaozhu and Rongzhao's Qiwu Courtyard are separated by a small half of the palace, and they have to spare a small garden, and they have to cross a small bridge to get there.
"You really have a problem, fortunately, the prince suspects you and lets me follow, otherwise I don't know your true face!"
"Then you will be unlucky, and everyone who has seen me for what I really am will die. ”
Qi Lingyun's embroidered shoes had just stepped on the first step of the small bridge, and she heard an intermittent sound coming from behind the rockery, she didn't hear it very really, thinking that it was two little maids arguing.
Two more steps up the bridge.
"Help, help!" Suddenly, there was a cry for help, as if someone had strangled his neck.
Qi Lingyun was shocked, could it be that someone committed murder in the palace of the king of Chu.
She lifted her skirt and trotted two steps, thinking about getting out of the place as soon as possible.
"Save ...... Help......" The voice was so faint that it was almost inaudible.
Qi Lingyun stopped, and there was a guess in her heart, if she could save someone, would her cousin look at her differently.
Thinking so, she went back, picked up a large rock from the ground, and walked towards the point of shouting for help.
It's a pity that she was a step too late, and she watched the strangled man swallow his breath.
Unsteady in her hand, the stone fell to the ground and smashed on her own feet, she pointed at the assailant, trembling, "It's you—"
Rong Zhao and Xiao Junjue were woken up by the sound of a gong, Rong Zhao was angry, it was not easy for her to sleep a little longer, and she didn't let her be at peace for a moment.
"Who is messing around outside. She shouted at a few disheveled figures outside.
The lonely eagle stood at the door, reflecting her bowed shadow, "Miss Hui's words, it's ......"
"Babbling, what's going on, I have something to say. Rong Zhao was impatient.
Gu Yu pursed his lips and said, "The guards who patrol the night found two corpses in the small garden, Mo Yu and Ah Zi. ”
If it weren't for being pregnant, Rong Zhao would have been able to jump out of bed. Xiao Junjue wanted to stop her, but dead people are always bad, and they are angry and rush into children. But knowing what kind of character she is, if she doesn't let her go, can she do it?
When Rong Zhao saw the corpse, he covered his mouth and vomited to the side. Both of their faces were burned, and their flesh was still foaming at the surface.
She turned her back to her, "Is it really Mo Yu and Ah Zi?"
Qiushui didn't dare to look at it, Gu Yu was much bolder, she flipped through the palm of the person in green and said, "I remember that Mo Yu has a red mole in the palm of his hand, and this person also has it." ”
The burning smell of the skin and flesh was pungent, and even the lonely bird couldn't stand it, so he went to the side to take a few breaths of fresh air.
Hua Yu shuddered and glanced at the clothes of the two corpses, "That's right, I saw them wearing clothes of this color today." She glanced at the hairpin next to the purple corpse's head, her hair was also burnt, and the hairpin fell to the ground scattered, "That plum hairpin was bought by a few of us on Ah Zi's birthday." ”
Three days ago, they celebrated Ah Zi's birthday together, and they had a lot of fun, so they ......
Xiao Junjue looked at the corpse, didn't speak for a long time, his eyes flickered, and he didn't know what he was thinking.
"Lord Wang, someone saw the Qi family's Miss Cousin running out of the palace, still holding a bloody dagger in her hand. "Nighthawk has asked everyone.
Two corpses, both killed by daggers, one in the front and one in the back.
Rong Zhao looked at Xiao Junjue suddenly, angry and angry, "It must be the person Qi Lingyun killed, she is really vicious, she can't snatch you, she will kill my person, there is no humanity!"
Rong Zhao's eyes were obvious, if he dared to cheat for personal gain, she would not be done with him.
Xiao Junjue lowered her eyes and said, "Distribute the list and want Qi Lingyun." ”
The Qi family also heard the news and ran over, and the Cao family heard that Xiao Junjue wanted Qi Lingyun, and rushed over to grab his arm, "Yun'er won't kill, she won't kill, don't want her, I beg you, don't want her." ”
Qi Zhiyuan's face changed greatly, and he pressed Xiao Junjue's arm, "Junjue, your cousin is by no means such a ruthless person, you can't wronged her, she is your own cousin." ”
Rong Zhao's cruel eyes were projected, and his voice was cold and cold, "The prince broke the law with the common people, someone watched her leave with a murder weapon, isn't she a ghost!"
Cao Shi knelt down in front of her, kowtowed, and said: "I beg you, princess, I beg you, Yun'er, she shouldn't fight with you, she knows it's wrong, she won't appear in front of you in the future, please spare her." ”
"I spared her, why didn't she know to spare others when she killed someone?" Rong Zhao brushed away Qi Zhiyuan and grabbed Xiao Junjue's hand, "If it weren't for her, why did she run out at night, and she didn't abscond in fear of crime." ”
Cao Shi cried in Qi Zhiyuan's arms, "Oh, what kind of sin has this been done, why can't Yun'er think about it so much." ”
According to the normal procedures for handling cases, it is necessary to go to the suspect and search for it.
From Qi Lingyun, I found a lot of aconite powder and a lot of medicine that invigorated blood and slid the fetus.
Rong Zhao sneered and looked at these things, "Who else can she be if the murderer is not her?" she doesn't even let go of her unborn child, she is really as poisonous as a snake and scorpion. ”
She glanced at Xiao Junjue, who had not spoken, and she could see that he was suspicious of this matter.
But all the evidence points to Qi Lingyun, what else is there to doubt.
Is it because Qi Lingyun is his relative, or is he so fond of Qi Lingyun that he can't bear to admit that the beauty is a snake and scorpion?
"I just think there are some doubts. Xiao Junjue tried her best to relax, and said patiently: "Do you see if the deaths of Mo Yu and Ah Zi are a bit similar to the deaths of One-Eyed? Qi Lingyun hadn't come when One-Eye died, if it was done by the same murderer, it must be Qi Lingyun." ”
Rong Zhao insisted: "Can't she imitate the modus operandi and want to confuse you perverts with knives on their heads?"
Xiao Junjue "tsked" for a moment, "Why are you here again? I'm not shielding Qi Lingyun, it's just that I'm afraid that the real murderer will escape, kill Mo Yu and Lonely, and blame Qi Lingyun, so that he will get away with it, or come to commit murder again." I just don't want to let go of the real murderer. ”
"If she hadn't been the murderer, would she still be missing? If she had died, I would have believed that she wasn't, but now, there is no trace, how can you make me believe it. Rong Zhao didn't have that patience, she was impatient, as if she had eaten artillery, and she was also angry at Xiao Junjue, "And you, how do you do things? How do your subordinates do things? It's been so many days, a woman, she can't see anyone alive, she can't see a corpse, is it useless!"
"Okay, okay, I'll urge, I'll supervise, don't be angry. She was so excited, and the villain in her stomach was disobedient, Rong Zhao's eyebrows twisted, and Xiao Junjue hurriedly helped her sit down and comforted, "Okay, it's her, I'll definitely catch her for you, don't be angry with yourself anymore." ”
Rong Zhao glared at him, "When I catch Qi Lingyun, I will put her on a soldering iron rod and roast her meat." ”
"Okay, you can do whatever you want. Xiao Junjue didn't have any temper with Rong Zhao at all, touching her stomach and carefully comforting the two naughty mischievous people there, she just hoped that they would stop and be naughty until the due date, don't toss his Zhaozhao.
Rong Zhao gradually lost his breath, and a trace of sadness rose in his eyes, "I can't let Mo Yu and Ah Zibai die." ”
Xiao Junjue's eyebrows skipped a beat, and the vague luster in her eyes slowly dimmed.
It is said that it was an eventful year, but this year seems to be an eventful one.
Emperor Xiaojing was in a coma for three days and did not wake up, the Ministry of Rites was already preparing for the future, this time the condition was dangerous, and he might be able to live for ten more days when he woke up, but if he couldn't wake up......
Chang En stayed by Emperor Xiaojing's side, never leaving an inch, every once in a while, he would shout a few times beside him, and every time he shouted, he shed a tear.
"Holy Lord, you have to hold on. You haven't seen the child of the King of Chu yet, and in more than a month, it will be born, and you have to give it a name. Otherwise, when you see Concubine Wan Niangniang in the future, when you talk about your grandson, you don't know what it is called, what it looks like, and Concubine Wan Niangniang can't laugh at you?"
In the empty hall, only Chang En was talking beside Emperor Xiaojing, just like before, chattering. But this time, no one thought he was nagging.
"The old slave knows that you have been thinking about the king of Chu in your heart, and the old slave made my own decision and sent a letter to the king of Chu. The old slave believed that after receiving the letter, the king of Chu would definitely return. No matter what you say, you have to see him for the last time, don't you? Haven't you always hoped that he would really call you father? He is about to become a father now, and he will understand you, and he will definitely keep screaming. You'll have to wait for him. ”
"Holy Lord, you must wake up, you must wake up......"
"Hmph, I want to see Xiao Junjue, there is no door, this dog eunuch, dare to report to Xiao Junjue, wait for your father to return to the west, and drive him to guard the imperial mausoleum. Listening to a long and short cry inside, Concubine Wen snorted softly.
Xiao Jinyu didn't enter the hall, turned around and went out.
Concubine Wen Guifei followed him, chattering endlessly, "Thanks to my mother, I am smart, so that people can keep an eye on Chang En's movements all the time, and when I saw him write a letter, I knew that it was no good thing, and I robbed the letter back halfway, and saw how he sent a message to Xiao Junjue." Xiao Junjue wants to go back to Changge City and dream of his Spring and Autumn Festival, he doesn't want to come back in this life. ”
Xiao Jinyu's footsteps suddenly stopped, and she turned to look at Concubine Wen, "Mother, if your father is going to die, why aren't you sad at all?"
Concubine Wen was stunned for a moment, smiled again, and patted Xiao Jinyu on the shoulder, "Why should I be sad, it's too late for me to be happy." If he dies, my son will be the emperor, why should I be sad?"
Under Xiao Jinyu's indifferent eyes, her smile gradually faded, "He has never loved me, never had me in his heart, why should I be sad for him?"
"But he has given you so many years of glory and wealth. Xiao Jinyu said.
Concubine Wen smiled, undeniable.
Xiao Jinyu's voice was soft, like a cloud, "When I have this day, will I be more pitiful than my father, and no one will shed a tear for me?"
