Volume 5: The Case of the Five Kings Fighting for the Dragon Chapter 145: Longchang Palace
After King Longchang left, King Changping laughed and invited Duan Ming and the four of them back into the mansion, and then asked someone to prepare the dinner as soon as possible.
"Lord Wang." Xing Qianqiu said to the king of Changping: "I don't know where General Gu is? I have some questions I'd like to know about. ”
"Gu Hao." King Changping nodded and looked at the attendants on the side: "Go, call Gu Hao." ”
"Yes." The squire nodded and walked away quickly.
Soon, a burly strong man walked over, and he saluted the king of Changping with a guilty face: "Lord Wang, I'm sorry." ”
"What are you sorry for?" King Changping smiled: "You can save a big face for this king." ”
"Still." King Changping's voice changed: "You need to fully cooperate with Mr. Duan and the criminal commander now, they want to ask you some questions, don't hide it." ”
"Yes." Gu Hao hugged his fists.
"General Gu, I don't know what you did today? Why did you have a quarrel with Kang Shaocheng? Xing Qianqiu asked.
"This ......" Gu Hao slowly lowered his head: "I know that the prince wants that dragon pattern stone carving very much, so I thought about secretly going to the Treasure Pavilion again and buying the dragon pattern stone carving back." ”
"I didn't expect Kang Shaolong to get the news from somewhere, and he also brought someone over."
"He said I was stealing, and I wasn't convinced, so we fought."
"You, you." Hearing this, King Changping glared at Gu Hao: "The matter of dragon pattern stone carving, this king has his own plan, what are you going to do?" ”
"I, I'm ......" Gu Hao scratched his head.
"General Gu, when you were fighting with Kang Shaolong, you really didn't use weapons?" Duan Ming asked.
"It's really not, we're also afraid of making trouble, and we fight on weekdays, so we have to pay attention to it if we really do it." Gu Hao said.
"Then when the two of you were fighting, was there anything abnormal about Kang Shaolong?" Xing Qianqiu asked.
"Anomalous? Well......" Gu Hao recalled carefully, and then said: "One thing, that is, Kang Shaolong always misses, I thought I avoided it at first, but later I found out that he always missed." ”
"Speaking of which, I was quite unhappy at the time. What does bias mean? Keep your hands? I asked Kang Shaolong to beat me with one hand, and he still kept his hand with me? ”
"So I gave him a few hard blows to make him serious."
"And he died."
"Missed?" Xing Qianqiu looked at Duan Ming: "This may not be a stay, it may still be ......"
"Poisoning." Duan Ming said in a deep voice: "It looks like I'll really have to check it out later." ”
Soon, the banquet was ready, and Duan Ming and the four of them enjoyed a sumptuous feast under the warm hospitality of the King of Changping.
Subsequently, Duan Ming and the four of them left the king of Changping and went directly to the palace of Longchang.
"Wan'er, otherwise, you and Zhucui should go back to the Spiegel Division to rest first. It's not too early now. Xing Qianqiu said.
"What? Think we're in the way? Li Wan'er said with a smile.
"How can this be?" Xing Qianqiu hurriedly said: "It's just that I can't figure out the person King Longchang, and I don't know what the situation is this time." ”
"Well, Uncle Longchang Wang can be regarded as a reasonable person." Li Wan'er said: "There shouldn't be a problem. ”
"And I have to be involved in it." Li Wan'er's voice changed, and she frowned: "Although my father cannot come here to preside over the overall situation due to injury, this place is actually still under the jurisdiction of my father. ”
"The generals under the five princes died one after another, how could I not ask."
"Okay." Xing Qianqiu sighed, knowing that since Li Wan'er said this, it meant that Li Wan'er had already made up her mind.
Soon, the four of them came to the Longchang Palace, although it was late at the moment, but the Longchang Palace was brightly lit everywhere, as if it was day.
"Mr. Duan, criminal commander." A soldier stood at the gate of the mansion and greeted him: "The prince has been waiting in the mansion for a long time. ”
"Please." Duan Ming nodded and said to the soldier.
Soon, under the guidance of the soldiers, Duan Ming and the four of them entered the Longchang Palace and came directly to the palace hall.
"Here we are." King Longchang saw Duan Ming and the others, and nodded: "Kang Shaolong's matter is in trouble." ”
"I wonder where General Kang's body is?" Duan Ming asked directly.
"In his room." King Longchang slowly stood up: "Come with me." ”
Then King Longchang took Duan Ming and the four of them directly to Kang Shaolong's room, and when he saw the corpse in the room, Zhu Cui couldn't help but let out a loud scream.
Duan Ming and the others didn't care about this, they just came directly to the corpse and examined it carefully.
King Longchang didn't urge, just stood aside quietly, watching Duan Ming examine Kang Shaolong's body.
Through inspection, Duan Ming found that there were no obvious knife wounds on Kang Shaolong's body, only some bruises, which should have been injured by someone with a fist, which was exactly the same as what Gu Hao said.
Kang Shaolong's corpse was curled up into a bow, and the facial features on his face were "together", looking very painful.
Later, Duan Ming carefully examined Kang Shaolong's eyelids and mouth, and found that Kang Shaolong's eyelids had fine bloodshots, slightly blue lips, and blood under his tongue.
"That's right." Duan Ming stood up and looked at Xing Qianqiu: "General Kang should have died of poisoning." ”
"Poisoned?" Xing Qianqiu looked at King Longchang: "Lord Wang, what did you eat at noon?" Is what General Kang eats different from everyone else? ”
"Nope." King Longchang shook his head: "Although Kang Shaolong is arrogant and domineering on weekdays, he is very good to the soldiers, and there should be no problem with eating and living with the soldiers on weekdays." ”
Speaking of this, King Longchang looked at a soldier on the side: "Did General Kang eat anything special before?" ”
"Nope." The soldier shook his head.
"So, do any of you have any uncomfortable symptoms?" Duan Ming asked, "Such as dizziness, nausea, headache and the like." ”
Several soldiers around looked at each other and shook their heads at the same time: "No." ”
"Where's the cutlery?" Duan Ming nodded, thought for a moment and said, "Is the tableware used by General Kang the same as yours?" ”
"It makes no difference." The soldier said, "We all take it casually." ”
"Since this is the case, it can be ruled out that it is poisoned by food and utensils......" Duan Ming nodded and looked up at the layout of the room: "This is General Kang's room?" Maybe the poisoned stuff is here. ”
"Then let's look for it." Xing Qianqiu sighed, and it was time for her to find something to relieve herself.
"Don't pay attention to things that are hardly used, focus on looking for things that General Kang uses more often on weekdays." Duan Ming said.
"Okay." The crowd nodded.
"You guys help too." King Longchang said to the soldiers around him......
