The master's surname is Gao, and his single name is Ren.

Gao Ren saluted respectfully, his body trembled slightly, he really didn't expect to see the eldest princess here, after all, he hadn't heard the news, saying that the eldest princess was coming.

"Knock to see the eldest princess!" Gao Ren kowtowed.

Voice, a little choked.

Baili Chang'an smelled of wine, and he was fiddling with the words in the vase, his beautifully trimmed nails, and picking out a little trace on the petals, it was interesting to look at.

She didn't look at him either, she was very focused on doing her own thing, and she didn't mean to open her mouth at all.

didn't hear a response, Gao Ren knelt there and trembled slightly, "Damn it!" ”

"Since you know that you should die, you should make a long story short and make the affairs of Wutong County clear!" Zi Yan looked at him condescendingly, "If you make a mistake by half a word, you will have no return today." ”

Gao Ren knelt on the ground, "The lowly duty understands, and the lowly duty must be truthful." It's just that where does the lowly position begin? ”

"Let's start with the corpse you found the herb picker." Qi Yue reminded on the side.

Gao Ren straightened his back slightly, "That was almost a year ago, someone found a corpse on the edge of the cliff outside the gourd valley, looking at the clothes, it should have gone into the mountain to collect medicine." Later, after a visit, it was confirmed that it was indeed a nearby herb picker, and the herbs scattered all over the place and the ropes hanging on the cliff wall were enough to prove this. ”

Seeing that everyone was silent, Gao Ren continued to speak, "The traces left on the corpse, as well as the things brought back, all prove that they fell off the cliff with a stumble. It has been verified that they are all injuries caused by falls, which can be seen to be caused by accidents. ”

"Accidental death?" Baili Chang'an finally reacted, with the scissors in his hand, he "clicked" and cut the flower branches that were oblique from the side, and the eyes of the soul were filled with a cool and thin yin.

Obviously, she didn't believe it.

"The autopsy was indeed an accidental death." Gao Ren hurriedly explained, "But there are still discoveries in the work, saying that he was poisoned before he died, and these poisons remain in his body until he dies." But he also said that the residual toxin is not the fatal cause, but the fatal one is a fall. ”

Another pair of scissors went down, and the flower branch "clicked" and fell on the table.

Baili Chang'an slowly put down the scissors, twisted the pruned branches, and stared at him with a cold face, "What happened later?" ”

"At first, we thought it might be an accident, most of the herb pickers will test the medicine themselves, and it is not surprising that they are poisonous. But later, there was a second and third corpse, although they were not in the same position, but the deaths were very similar, and the poison on the body was almost the same, but the difference in the strength of the poison was weak. Gao Ren explained.

Hearing this, Zi Lan was a little curious, "What poison?" ”

"I can't say it clearly, I just say that this poison is extremely weird, it will not be fatal on the spot, and it can't be easily excreted." Gao Ren was also full of suspicion, "We took a little poison from the deceased before, and tried it on the rabbit, so the humble position has no intention of deceiving the eldest princess." ”

Baili Chang'an also believed that at this time, there was no need for him to deceive.

"And then?" Zi Yan asked.

Gao Ren's eyes narrowed, and his face was full of panic, "At the beginning, it was ten days and a half days and a month when a corpse was found, but later, it was ...... Basically, there is a corpse in three or two days. Even if they were all injured by falls, the prefectural magistrate no longer believed that it was an accident, and even if there was no evidence, he strengthened his vigilance and sent many people to patrol around the foot of the mountain. ”

Obviously, the effect is not obvious.

If there was evidence, they would have gone to arrest the murderer a long time ago.

"But who knows, the murderer was not caught, but he paid for the life of the county commander." Speaking of this, Gao Ren's eyes were red and he couldn't stop choking.

Zi Yan glanced at Zi Lan, and the two of them each had a slight sinking heart.

The water in Guangling Mansion is very deep, you have to be careful!

"What about the prefectural order?" Baili Chang'an knew that he wanted to lead her in this direction, and she didn't break it, after all, the death of the county order was also something they wanted to investigate.

Gao Ren suddenly kowtowed fiercely, his forehead touched the ground, making a clear muffled sound, and when he stood up straight, blood was flowing on his forehead, "Please eldest princess, make the decision for the county commander!" ”

Baili Chang'an put down the flower branch in his hand with a cold expression, "You mean, the death of the county order?" ”

"The eldest princess, the county commander was killed, he was not the one who drank to death as the people said." Gao Ren cried, "The humble position is a student of the county magistrate, and in the early years, it was the adults who gave the humble position to entangle, and went to Jinling City to take the exam, so that he had a fame." The humble man knew how much he drank, and he also knew that he was not in good health during that time, and he didn't drink much, so it was impossible for him to die of drunkenness. ”

Speaking of this, Gao Ren wiped away the tears from the corners of his eyes, "And not long after the adult's death, the humble and the servant quietly examined the adult's body, although there were no external injuries elsewhere on the body, but there were finger marks on the cheeks. ”

"On the cheeks?" Zilan thought for a moment and reached out to pinch her chin, "So?" ”

Gao Ren nodded.

"Pinch your chin and pour wine." Zi Yan realized.

Gao Ren choked, "Yes! ”

"It's no wonder." Baili Chang'an closed his eyes, "Why didn't you say these words before, why didn't you skip the ranks?" Why leave Wutong County inaction? ”

Gao Ren's face was full of bitterness, "It's not that I don't say it, I don't dare!" On the night of the second day after the burial of the prefectural magistrate, the family's daughter-in-law and little grandson were on the street...... Lost. ”

"Lost?" Zilan was puzzled, "What do you mean?" ”

Qi Yue understood, "Kidnapped." ”

"The county magistrate is the mentor of the humble position, no matter what, the humble position cannot let the people of the Wang family have an accident." Gao Ren lowered his eyes, "After that, something strange happened in the county office, and the lowly official knew that someone must be staring at the lowly position, if he acted rashly, he was only afraid that the people of the Wang family would ......"

However, he secretly searched all over the place, but he couldn't find where they were.

"The revenge of the adults must be avenged, but the living are more important." Gao Ren's voice was muffled, "If it weren't for this prince mentioning the eldest princess, he would definitely not dare to risk his death, for fear of hurting the lives of the Wang family." ”

Baili Chang'an is considered to understand, the ins and outs, this Guangling Mansion let these dogs get it, the black smoke and miasma, and human life is like a mustard in their eyes.

Even the county order dares to kill today, will you dare to kill the king in the future?

Zhuo Quan, Minglin, and the black hand.

Oh, that's a good job!

"What lawlessness!" Qi Yue looked at her, his eyes were dark......
