Chapter 135: Concealing the Truth
readx;? According to the inspection and analysis of the couch in the practice room, Yang Jing and Wang Buliu also got a lot of information, and targeted the dragon girl of the Dong family's toast. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
But the question that followed was that the servants of the Zhao Mansion did not find out that the dragon girl had entered and left the practice room, could this dragon girl just disappear out of thin air? Is Zhao Gaoyi's death really related to her?
When Yang Jing was thinking, Luo Jin had already brought all the relevant personnel that morning outside the practice room, Yang Jing asked them to wait outside, and searched the entire practice room with Wang Buliu and Lu Changan, and then began to interrogate.
Yang Jing called Luo Jin in first, and asked him about the whereabouts of the daughter of the dragon beard toast, Luo Jin did not dare to hide it, and bluntly said that the dragon girl had been imprisoned by Zhao Gaoyi by himself, and they didn't know how to deal with Zhao Gaoyi, until Zhao Gaoyi died, the entire Zhao Mansion was turned over, and the dragon girl was not found.
It was precisely because the dragon girl disappeared out of thin air that Luo Jin felt bizarre and weird, coupled with the previous death threat of the dragon beard Tusi, they thought that the Tu witch used a secret method to save the dragon girl unconsciously, and also scared Zhao Gaoyi to death.
Although this Zhao Mansion is not small, it should not be very difficult to find a place where people can be detained, how can they not find Miss Long?
According to the inference of Yang Jing and the three of them, on the night of Zhao Gaoyi's death, it should be the Dragon Girl who stayed in the practice room, and the servant opened the door at dawn, but did not find the existence of the Dragon Girl.
If Miss Long killed Zhao Gaoyi halfway through and then left, would anyone see someone entering and leaving the practice room? How did she escape from Zhao's mansion?
Thinking of this, Yang Jing said to Luo Jin: "I want to know who last saw Zhao Gaoyi that night. ”
Luo Jin thought for a while and replied: "It's Yahuan Huaihua'er, she is Brother Zhao's roommate, she has been serving Brother Zhao in the practice room, and she left the practice room after the third watch that night, and she should be the last person to see Brother Zhao." ”
Yang Jing nodded, and asked Luo Jin to bring Huaihua'er in, and deliberately placed the location of the inquiry in the bedroom, next to the couch.
Huaihua'er was quickly brought in, a fifteen or sixteen-year-old girl, her body was a little weak, she buried her head deeply, and she couldn't see her face clearly, just blindly trembling.
"You're Acacia Flower?"
"Yes..."
"Lift up your head. Yang Jing sat on the chair next to the couch and commanded Huaihua'er in a soft tone, who hesitated for a moment, but still raised his head tremblingly.
Yang Jing looked at it, and suddenly felt a little sudden, there was still a swollen and bruised place on the left side of this Huaihua'er, the breach at the corner of the mouth had not healed, and he pulled the neckline with his hand from time to time, and the scars on his arms were also faintly visible, which was obviously abused.
"Huaihua'er, you will make it clear what happened that night. Yang Jing's heart was also a little blocked, such an age was in middle school in the later life, but these girls were devastated by the masters, which was really sad and lamentable.
Huaihua'er lowered her head again, and then whispered, "Yes... My lord... That night, the slave and maid waited for the master to wash, and was about to go back to rest, the master said that he suddenly wanted to drink, so he asked the slave and the maid to go to the kitchen to prepare, and the slave and maid sent the wine and food to the practice room, and the master said that he wanted to stay alone, so he let the slave and the maid go back, and at the second correction moment, the slave and maid wanted to clean up the dishes, but the master did not finish drinking, and did not let the slave and maid go in until the third watch, and the slave and maid cleaned up and went back to rest. ”
"That's it?"
"Hmm... That's it..."
"Huaihua'er, tell the official honestly, did your master bully you?"
Huaihua'er heard Yang Jing's question, suddenly raised her head, waved her hand at Yang Jing and argued: "The master is very good to the slaves and maids, serving the master is what we slaves and maids should do, master... The lord didn't bully ... Bullying slaves and maids..."
Yang Jing saw that Huaihua'er's eyes were evasive and her words were sparse, so she knew that she didn't tell the truth, such a slave maid was really a little unconcealable in front of Yang Jing's pretended official authority.
Yang Jing felt pity, and couldn't bear to force him and scare her, so he smiled and asked: "Huaihua'er, I know what your lord has done to you, you have to say it with confidence, anyway, your lord is dead, and the official can guarantee that it will never be spread out, and the lady and grandmother will not know what you said." ”
Huaihua'er heard Yang Jing say this, raised her head again, tears were already rolling in her eyes, but she still shook her head, and just insisted in a low voice: "Master... The master didn't bully the slave and maid..."
Yang Jing saw that Huaihua'er was like an overly frightened little white sheep, and knew that there must be an unknown secret in it, and she was a little unbearable to ask her, but she was the last person to see Zhao Gaoyi, and the help to the case was too great, so Yang Jing had to harden her heart.
"Huaihua'er, you told the official that when you sent food to the practice room earlier, and when you left at the third watch, did you see if there were any other people in your master's room?"
Huaihua'er didn't even open her mouth this time, shaking her head vigorously, but tears rolled down and hit the back of her hand.
Lu Changan was born as a secret agent, and he didn't know how many people he had tortured behind his back, and he had seen any kind of torture, and what he hated the most was this kind of crying and dragging scene, seeing that Yang Jing was too soft, he shouted on the side.
"What a daring slut! You actually deceived my family! Don't think that my family is kind-hearted, you can deceive at will, before Zhao Gaoyi died, you were the only one who had seen him, you had the intention to hide it, it could be that you poisoned Zhao Gaoyi!"
Lu Changan is a torturer with blood on his hands, his eyes are like sharp knives, piercing the soul of Huaihua'er, who was already frightened and helpless, where can he hold on, his knees are weak, and he immediately knelt down!
"Your Excellency, spare the slaves... The master really didn't bully the slave maid..."
"Dare to quibble! It's a big deal to say it hurts your reputation, if you don't say it, you can't say that you will be tortured, and then it will hurt your body!"
Lu Chang'an's voice was full of emotion, and Huaihua'er was so frightened that her face was bloodless, but she still just kept shaking her head, almost falling into a collapse, and her tears rolled down.
Yang Jing saw that Lu Changan was so coercive, Huai Hua'er didn't open his mouth to tell the truth, and he was a little helpless, because he was very disgusted with the torture in ancient times.
At this moment, Wang Buliu said: "Lord Yang, from the perspective of old decay, this girl has compact eyebrows, smooth and white neck, clear earlobes, unopened corners of her eyes, and a tight nose, she should be a virgin, so Zhao Gaoyi is afraid that she really did not tarnish her innocence..."
Yang Jing couldn't help but exclaim: "You can see this?!!!"
Yang Jing is a staunch atheist, he believes in science, and has never been very interested in metaphysics and physiognomy, but Wang Bu's message has proved more than once that Wang Buliu's eyes are rarely wrong!
Yang Jing couldn't help but glance at Huaihua'er, but when she saw Huaihua'er raise her head and look at Wang Buliu, her eyes were full of gratitude, and she immediately believed it.
"Since you are still a virgin and have not been bullied by your master, Huaihua'er, what do you want to hide?"
"This official might as well tell you, if you don't tell the truth today, it will be difficult for this official to help you, because Zhao commanded the violent death, the Yuezhou army has surrounded and suppressed the Dong family village, killing and injuring many people, if you can't solve the case in time, maybe more innocent people will be implicated, I know you are a kind girl, do you just watch so many innocent people suffer?"
Yang Jing walked over, squatted in front of Huai Hua'er, and looked at her sincerely and urgently, the latter frowned, obviously in his heart.
"Your Excellency... Slaves... The slave was indeed not bullied by the master... At the second correction moment that day, the slave wanted to go in to clean up the dishes, and knocked on the door, but she didn't see the master respond, so she walked in, but as soon as she walked in, she was knocked unconscious..."
"Didn't you say there was no one in the room when the food was delivered?"
"There was really no one present when the slave and maid delivered the food, and the slave and maid didn't know what was going on... When the slave wakes up, she discovers... Found the slave and maid stripped ... Stripped naked, lying on the couch... The old man is sleeping next to him..."
"The slave and maid were frightened, and looked around for clothes, but they couldn't find anything, so they had to wrap themselves in a quilt and escape..."
Yang Jing didn't expect that there would be such a hidden secret, no wonder Huaihua'er didn't dare to speak, who would believe that she was innocent when she said such a situation?
"Slave... The slave was also frightened, and when she returned to her residence, she realized that her body was not broken... But the slave's clothes are still with the master, and if the mother-in-law who cleans the room finds out the next morning, she will definitely report to the eldest lady and say that I seduced the master... So the slave maid... The slave asked Brother Xiaohu to help the slave and maid steal the clothes back..."
"Brother Little Tiger?"
"Well, he's the son of a gardener in the house, and our two families have already agreed on a family affair... At the beginning of the fourth watch, Brother Xiaohu came back in a panic, saying that the old man was drunk and unconscious, but the clothes were not seen, he was worried that the quilt would be suspicious if it was gone, so he went to the laundry room to get a quilt ready to wash, saying that when the old man Ming'er left, he would let me change it back..."
Huaihua'er's confession also made Yang Jing feel very surprised, but he didn't expect that they had been scrutinizing the quilt for most of the day, but it was just a coincidental mistake, and Huaihua'er was not the last person to see Zhao Gaoyi, the son of the gardener was!
That Xiaohu said that Zhao Gaoyi was drunk and unconscious, and he must have checked Zhao Gaoyi's situation, that is, if Zhao Gaoyi was not dead when he checked, then the time of death should be the period between the first moment of the fourth watch and before dawn.
Yang Jing and the others finally understood why Huaihua'er insisted on concealing the truth, because this would make people misunderstand her innocence, and if she met a mediocre official, she might even treat Xiaohu as a murderer to investigate and torture, which would simply provoke fire!
Of course, now a question also arises, who is the person who knocked the locust unconscious?
If Miss Long was in the practice room at that time, then was Zhao Gaoyi worried that Huaihua'er would break his ugly thing, so he knocked Huaihua'er unconscious, and then stripped naked and put it on the bed, so that she didn't dare to publicize it, or did Miss Long knock Huai'er unconscious, changed into Huaihua'er's clothes and mixed out of Zhao's mansion?
Yang Jing couldn't figure it out for a while, and in the absence of more information, he couldn't deduce, so he comforted Huaihua'er a few words, and then let her go out and let Luo Jin bring the florist's son Xiaohu in.
At present, this little tiger should be the last person to see Zhao Gaoyi, when he saw Zhao Gaoyi, whether Zhao Gaoyi was still alive or not, whether he saw whether there were other people in the room, it became the key!
