Chapter 548: The Murderer
The emperor didn't have the patience to listen to this, he just wanted to know how the third child died, and who killed him?
"Now that we know that it's ***, who did it? This needs to be found out as soon as possible."
Su Yizhao immediately called the person who first found the body of the third prince, who was the concubine of the third prince.
"At that time, the concubine heard that His Highness had returned, so she came to find His Highness."
Su Yizhao found out that this is the inner courtyard, it stands to reason that after the early dynasty, he either went to the yamen or went to the outer study to discuss matters, how could he come to the inner courtyard?
"Why did you come to the Third Highness?"
Seeing that the woman was only twenty-eight years old, she was crying prostrately, and the image of a weak little white flower stood up.
"The concubine body, His Royal Highness asked the concubine body to come."
"Can anyone testify?" Su Yizhao asked.
"This? It can only be the girl in the concubine's house, Longge, she watched the concubine come over, but she didn't meet anyone along the way. Oh! By the way, on the way, I only met Mama Zhang in the princess's house, she saw that it was a concubine at that time, and reprimanded the concubine a few words."
The woman had two witnesses, and Su Yizhao asked the two to be brought in for questioning immediately.
After asking other subordinates in the house, I learned that the house where the concubine lived needed a cup of tea to walk from here, and in this time, to walk to this house, you have to kill someone, and it is indeed a little insufficient time.
After Su Yizhao and the other guards interrogated the other two, there was no discrepancy with what the woman said.
Letting the woman go back for the time being, Su Yizhao then entered the third prince's house again.
This is the sleeping place of the three princes, but Su Yizhao didn't see anything about the woman inside.
The inner room is for washing, and there is a large pool paved with white granite. Other than that, there are only stools and hangers for clothes.
There is a dresser outside, and when Su Yizhao opens the makeup, there are only things used by men.
A jade comb, and the others are purses, sachets, and hair crowns.
The only woman's possession is a set of agate heads on a dresser.
Thinking of what the concubine said, Su Yizhao had a number in his heart.
Carefully looking for traces inside, not letting go of every inch.
Glancing at the height of the beams, if you put people on it, ordinary women should not be able to do it, because the third prince is a little burly, but it is not impossible to use tools.
The reason why he said that the three princes committed suicide was because there was a round stool under his corpse, and there were footprints of the three princes on it.
Su Yizhao looked at it carefully, and the footprints were there, very clear. But if it's too clear, that's wrong.
The suicide of the hanging beam is the last to kick off the stool, and in the process of kicking the stool, there will definitely be traces, the footprints on it will not be complete, and there will be vague marks on the sides, and the marks on this round stool do not match.
But if the murderer puts it up, then he must use tools.
"If you carry someone on a stool and put it on it, it will take a lot of effort, and the unconscious person will not be at his mercy."
At this time, Kang Shiwen also came in, and he looked pensive.
"Even if it's the official, it's very difficult to hang up with an unconscious person."
"What if you hang it with a knot?"
Su Yizhao pointed to a place on the bed bar on the stepping bed, "Look! There are signs of wear and tear here."
Kang Shiwen leaned over to look at it, and then listened to Su Yizhao begin the evolution process.
"Do you think the way this rope is knotted is a little weird?"
Kang Shiwen looked up at the rope still hanging from the beam, and he nodded.
"It's really weird, the average person hanging a beam should use a rope to pass through the beam, and then tie a knot underneath it and stick your head in. And this knot is very strange, it is through the beam, one end is tied with a small sleeve that can reach into the head, and the other end is re-knotted with the loop."
Although it felt strange, it was not surprising that Kang Shiwen thought that this was the murderer's method.
"And he shall sit on the ground with him, and put his head in it. Then a rope is broken through the beams,
The other end is tied to this bed bar first so that it does not slip. Then pull it up hard, and it should save a lot of effort. Finally, untie the rope from one side of the bed bar and tie it to the other end of the rope, creating the illusion of suicide."
What Su Yizhao said is the principle of leverage, and people with little strength can also do it.
"In this way, the women in this mansion should not be ruled out, and those maids are also suspicious." Kang Shiwen thought about it, and Su Yizhao's inference was valid.
"At that time, as soon as the body of the third prince was discovered, the chief of the palace immediately asked the guards to block the prince's mansion, and no one was allowed to enter. I only let the porter go to the yamen to report to the official, and during this period, even a fly can't fly out." Kang Shiwen muttered.
Su Yizhao felt that the long history was insightful, and this matter was handled well.
"Half an hour before the discovery, could anyone leave the house?" Su Yizhao was afraid that the murderer had already run away.
"I asked the porter, and only two stewards went out. One is from Zhuangzi, and he came to the house to report the output of Zhuangzi. There is also a person who is a lady in the backyard, a mother-in-law, who goes to buy some silk thread for the sewing room and the like. Because the two of them greeted the porter, the porter was impressed."
Su Yizhao nodded, "I don't know if Jingzhao Mansion has asked anyone about these two."
"I've asked, I can rule out suspicion, and there is nothing abnormal."
Kang Shiwen just took advantage of Su Yizhao's autopsy to do this.
Su Yizhao calculated the angle to see where the murderer would stand at that time and hang the person up.
Retreating to the head of the bed, Su Yizhao looked around.
She lay on the floor and looked under the bed, finally aware of the anomaly.
Reaching out and taking the little thing in his hand and looking at it, Su Yizhao raised it in front of his eyes and looked at it, and finally said to Kang Shiwen, "Arrest that concubine!"
Kang Shiwen heard Su Yizhao's words, didn't say a word, opened the door, and rushed out.
"Take down the concubine Ju!" As soon as he gave the order, everyone ran towards the house where Ju was.
Originally, the Ju family was resting in the room next to him, but who expected the door to be opened suddenly, and everyone looked at it, and suddenly did not dare to act rashly.
"I'll see who dares to move, or I'll kill her."
Su Yizhao sensed that something was wrong, she took out a sleeve arrow in the space and tied it to her wrist, and then walked out of the house, and sure enough, she saw that the Ju clan had kidnapped the third princess.
A long sword was placed on the neck of the third princess, and the Ju clan changed his weakness just now, and his eyes were very cold.
She carried the three princesses forward, and everyone could only retreat.
"Prepare me a horse and let me go."
Su Yizhao hid behind the crowd, ready to wait for the opportunity.
This woman is obviously good at martial arts, and her quasi-head is not very good, so I am afraid that she will not seriously injure the Ju clan, but the third princess will be injured or even killed, then it will be a big deal.
Just when Su Yizhao hesitated, the Ju clan sneered, and then raised his chin in Su Yizhao's direction.
"Let that Dali Temple Si Cheng stand in front and leave his tooth tag."
Su Yizhao was a little speechless, why did this woman ask for her tooth tag? How good is it to take Kang Shiwen?
The grade is high, and no one dares to stop you wherever you go.
