Volume 4: The Case of the Spiegel Chapter 125: Taking the Bait

With the sound of thunder, a light rain fell from the sky, and the sun hid in the thick clouds, not daring to show its head.

"Gollum, Gollum." A black carriage shuttles through the alleys of the capital.

The driver was dressed in a robe, wearing a hat, and carrying a long sword behind his back, and was silent all the way.

Soon, the carriage passed through street after street and came to the outside of the Immortal Sect.

The person driving the car vigilantly observed left and right, then got out of the car and gently knocked on the door of the Immortal Sect.

"Squeak." The door slowly opened, and a figure stepped out of it.

"What's going on?" The figure made a dull voice: "Why is it so early this time?" ”

"It's a bit of a change, and I can't delay." The driver whispered.

"Come on in." The figure nodded and walked out.

A thunderbolt exploded, and through the thunder, it could be seen that this figure was none other than Qingshan.

I saw Qingshan come to the carriage and gently knocked on the carriage: "Come out." ”

"Hmm." An incomparably gentle voice came from inside the carriage: "There is Master Lao." ”

Then the curtain slowly opened, revealing a graceful figure.

The figure, dressed in a long white dress, stepped out of the carriage as if it were a fairy.

"Hurry up and get inside, don't let anyone see it." The driver said, "I have to get back as soon as possible." ”

"Commander Yu, why are you in a hurry?" However, at this moment, a loud voice was heard, and then a horse-drawn carriage slowly drove out of the alley on one side.

"It's you!" The pupils of the person driving the carriage shrank slightly, and he saw that it was Duan Ming sitting in the carriage that came out later.

"Surprised?" Duan Ming said with a smile: "You said that Commander Yu, you obviously have such a good place to protect, why don't you say it?" Isn't it, Jade Princess. ”

When the woman in the white dress heard this, her face turned pale instantly, her eyes fell on Duan Ming, and she didn't speak.

"Why?" Yu Chen looked at Duan Ming coldly: "You shouldn't be here." ”

"Yes, your people should tell you that I have always been in the Gu Yu Shi family." Duan Ming nodded: "Or rather, you shouldn't care where I am at all, right?" As long as the Jade Concubine is missing, no matter what, your goal will be achieved. ”

"Okay, but I want to know, how the hell did you guess?" Yu Chen sighed: "I think what I hide should be seamless." ”

"You're looking too highly of yourself." Duan Ming shook his head: "From the moment I first saw you, I have been doubting you. After all, the last Imperial City Blood Sedan Chair case directly brought down Commander Song, and then you took the position. ”

"As a beneficiary, how can you make me not doubt it? However, at the time, I was just skeptical. ”

"Later, after listening to your words and the words of Xing Qianqiu, my suspicions became even worse." Duan Ming said in a deep voice: "Why didn't the corresponding cases happen again when Xing Qianqiu went to Linyang City?" But it happened again not long after the punishment returned? ”

So, I had a bold guess. Could it be because the commander of the Imperial City Division at that time has become you, Commander Yu? ”

"If the bloody sedan case happens again, you, as the initiator, will definitely not be able to solve the case. If you can't solve the case, you may repeat the mistake of Commander Song, and you may lose the position you just sat in. ”

"So, at that time, you absolutely couldn't let the blood sedan case happen again."

"It's just speculation, but it makes you more suspicious."

"If that's the case, why didn't you tell Your Majesty at that time and let Your Majesty arrest me?" Yu Chen asked in a deep voice.

"Because I couldn't figure it out, how the hell did you do that? You can take away a few mothers from the palace that is guarded at all levels. Duan Ming said: "Without any real evidence, you will go to the commander of the Imperial City Division?" I'm not that stupid yet. ”

"It wasn't until I asked a few maids and servants that a possibility appeared in my mind."

"Later, I checked the bedrooms of several Niangniang, especially Concubine Shu, and this possibility became concrete."

"I threw a silk scarf into the well in the Shuning Palace, and made a big reward, if anyone in the imperial city finds the silk scarf, they will definitely come to receive the reward. Even if there is no one in the imperial city, people will look around, looking for silk scarves through the flow of water. ”

"But after a few days, no one came, no one found the silk scarves, and no one found the bodies of the girls, so the possibility of throwing the bodies through the well is very low."

"If it is said that it is not you who have taken a few ladies captive, but a few ladies who have quietly escaped from the palace with your help, how likely is this?"

"The Imperial City Division is responsible for the security of the entire Imperial City, as the commander of the Imperial City Division, I'm afraid it's easy for this kind of thing."

"Concubine Shu? Is there something wrong with her? Yu Chen didn't answer, but asked again.

"At that time, when I searched for several Niangniang's dormitories, I found that each Niangniang's dormitory had immortal runes." Duan Ming said with a smile: "Lord Wan'er said that it is not uncommon for many ladies in the palace to have this habit. ”

"That's true, even the queen has immortal runes from her." Yu Chen nodded.

"That's right, but it's strange in another way." Duan Ming said: "Concubine Shu likes to read, but in her study, there are all kinds of books, but there are no books related to the Immortal Sect. ”

Is this reasonable for someone who believes in longevity and loves to read? Irrationality. Duan Ming shook his head: "One possibility I can think of is that Concubine Shu is subconsciously avoiding people from discovering her relationship with the Immortal Sect. ”

What kind of person would avoid this association? Obviously, it's a very close relationship. Duan Ming said, "And if Concubine Shu's relationship with the Immortal Sect is already very close, then will the rest of the concubines be the same?" ”

"If a few ladies are voluntary, with the assistance of the Imperial City Division, isn't it very simple?"

"Also, the multi-purpose vehicle of Tiangongfang was handed over to Tiangongfang by Concubine Ming, so how to assemble it into a blood sedan through the multi-purpose vehicle, I'm afraid you already know."

"So, the blood sedan chair is actually exactly what you did, and its purpose is to inform the corresponding concubines to get ready!"

"However, this is just my guess, and I can't count them." Duan Ming spread his hands: "Besides, the status of the Immortal Sect is outstanding, and it is absolutely impossible for Your Majesty to thoroughly investigate the Immortal Sect based on my guess." ”

"Therefore, if the Imperial City Blood Sedan case does not happen again, then it may never be proven that this case will never be proven."

"......" Yu Chen and Qingshan glanced at each other, and let out a long sigh: "So, we are in the middle of the scheme?" ”

"That's right, in order to reveal the truth, I must let you carry out another Imperial City Blood Sedan case. So, I've gone to great lengths to set a trap for you. Duan Ming nodded.

"You said that Xing Qianqiu will be released after the fifteenth day of the first month, this is false." Yu Chen looked at Duan Ming with a complicated face.

"It's a fake." Duan Ming nodded: "Not only this, but also the special house made by King Jing'an that I said is also fake, in order to lure you big fish to the bait!" ”
