Chapter 22: The Scene of the Crime
The two came to the scene of the crime, there was blood all over the ground, and there were corpses, there were two corpses on the ground at the door, Bai Qian went up and touched the two corpses, very stiff, Bai Qian felt that this cause should have died in the afternoon with his usual trial experience.
Bai Zhe also came to touch the corpse, as if he had guessed Bai Qian's thoughts, and said to Bai Qian: "This is because he should have died in the afternoon, and the corpse is stiff." Bai Qian nodded slightly and said, "That's right." Then he turned the body over, only to see a long blood streak behind the body.
Bai Qian measured the length of the blood stain with his hand, the blood stain was about 0.5 meters, and then Bai Qian turned over a few more, and it was the same situation, at this time Bai Qian said to Bai Zhe: "Help, turn over the other corpses." Bai Zhe replied: "Okay" and then after a while, the two turned over all the dead people, Bai Zhe said at this time: "There is a long one behind each corpse, because it should be done by a long knife, and now there are only two people in the court, one is the general of Zhenguo stationed in the frontier - Wu Fan, but Bian Yi is too far away from here, it is unlikely that it can only be the military minister of the DPRK - Wu Ying." Bai Qian pondered: "You are right, but do you remember that there is another person in the court who also has doubts." Bai Zhe asked, "Who?" Bai Qian replied: "Wait for the knife and wait for the guard-Wang Mingtai (real name: Mu Tai)" Bai Zhe was taken aback, but he didn't mess up and said: "Then what do you think." Bai Qian looked at the sky and said, "It's not early today, tomorrow I will ask Your Majesty to let these two suspects cooperate with the investigation." Bai Zhe couldn't say anything, so he said, "You can do it." Just as Bai Qian was about to leave, Bai Zhe took out a knife and stabbed Bai Qian, the knife pierced deeper and deeper, Bai Qian spat blood from his mouth, and fell down, slowly, without breathing.
In order to cover up his suspicion, Bai Zhe also stabbed himself, but he didn't stab him, and he fainted.
The next morning, the guards found two bodies, one of which was alive, of course. Morning upward,
"Two bodies were found this morning, one of them still breathing. One of the guards knelt down and said to the Emperor.
"Carry these two bodies in", I saw four people carrying two bodies in. When the emperor saw that this was not Bai Qian and Bai Zhe of Dali Temple, he was shocked and said to the guards: "Quickly Xuan Taiyi, come and cure the qi." A few days later, Bai Zhe woke up, immediately got up to see His Majesty, came to the palace and said to the emperor: "The minister knows who the murderer is." The emperor asked, "Who is it?" Bai Zhe said, "It's General Wuying." After listening to this, Wu Ying explained: "This is the palace, not your own palace, don't talk nonsense." Bai Zhe said to the emperor again: "Bai Qian and I originally deduced the murderer, but who never thought that they would be plotted before they left the house. The expression on Wu Ying's face was very ugly, and he still explained: "You don't want to talk nonsense." Bai Zhe stabbed again and said, "My lord really miscalculated, I'm going to die, so I don't have so many words." At this time, the emperor was gradually blinded, and said to Wu Ying: "What else do you have to say, I trust you so much, come here, drag him out and put him to death." The two guards dragged Wu Ying out, and Wu Ying said the last sentence before he died: "Faint you!" and then the head fell to the ground.
At this time, Mu Tai didn't know what time it was, and he put on a smile.
"What is the difference between the most trusted friend betraying himself and doing anything for the sake of profit, and today's society?"
