The three of them went downstairs to the room where "Yu Qiushuang" lived before.

Looking around the room, Li Lianhua picked up something that looked like a kite from the ground, "Sure enough, I haven't had time to destroy it yet." ”

Hearing his words, Fang Duo hurriedly walked towards him.

After seeing what he was holding in his hand, Fang Duo was surprised and said, "Shadow puppet? ”

"Seeing this, it reminds me of a small sect in the rivers and lakes, the Hujiang Pu family." Li Lianhua recalled: "More than ten years ago, Hujiang Pujia danced with shadow puppets and was famous all over the world. What I didn't expect was that overnight, the Hujiang Pu family was wiped out because of gambling debts, and then disappeared. ”

Looking at the shadow puppet in his hand, Fang Duo said sickly: "This silk thread is very thin, it seems that the person who controls it has done a good job, but he can operate this shadow puppet without being in the house." ”

"That's right." Li Lianhua said: "Yu Qiushuang originally died in Jade City, but the body was put into the dart box with the blood ice and sent to the dart game. And the murderer bribed Cheng Yunhe on the grounds of walking a dart. Cheng Yunhe didn't want his private darts to be exposed, so he wouldn't open the box and check them one by one. So Yu Qiushuang's body was transported to the Xiaomian Inn in this way. ”

Glancing around the room, Li Lianhua continued, "Yun Jiao and her guards are looking for Yuqiushuang, and they will stay in the inn one day in advance, so they can be arranged for one night. The next evening, she pretended to be Yu Qiushuang and entered the door again, and cooperated with the shadow puppet to pretend to be the voice of the two answering. The guards in the distance will only think that the second lady is really back. ”

"The dart box is specially made of cold iron, and the blood ice melts on the sixth day, and when the dart box is carried into the inn, the blood will overflow the dart box, and when people approach, they will notice the abnormality. Yun Jiao had already recovered her makeup, went downstairs to bathe alone, and when the blood seeped down her head, she attracted everyone's attention to the second floor. ”

"It will make the guards find that the second lady is gone, the blood-stained dart box will inevitably be opened, and Yu Qiushuang's body will naturally be found by the guards. This ghost killing drama is over. ”

Li Lianhua said so much in one breath. "What about this play, you need to kill someone to lead it, Wangfu happened to be on the second floor, and he was very miserable."

Fang Duozhi gritted his teeth, "Yun Jiao was on the first floor at the time, and it was the person behind this scene who killed Wangfu." can make Yun Jiao do so much drama, and now she is pretending to be crazy to hide the truth for her... It is the pearl of Zongzheng. ”

Zongzheng Mingzhu and Yu Qiushuang have a marriage contract, if they have a personal affair with Yun Jiao, they collaborated to kill Yu Qiushuang, but it is not without motives.

"This Yunjiao has already done this, but what I didn't expect is that this murderer wants to kill people."

"And what are we waiting for here?" Now that Li Lianhua had already deduced the truth, Fang Duozhi didn't understand, why didn't they expose Zongzheng Mingzhu's face and bring him to justice.

Li Lianhua said lightly: "Wait for the murderer to strike again." ”

These are just his speculations, and there is no evidence.

"Before leaving, weren't you in Yun Jiao's room, and you had already set up the mechanism?"

Fang Duozhi glanced at him, "You also know this, it's really an old fox." ”

"Now, I can only wait for the murderer to throw himself into the net, so as to solve the last doubt in my heart." Li Lianhua sighed.

"What doubts?"

Li Lianhua didn't speak, and Shen Haofeng spoke: "One needle is enough, why is there still a palm, why did the murderer kill Yu Qiushuang twice." ”

That's right, Fang Duozhi nodded again and again, he forgot about it.

……

Night.

Yunjiao's room.

A figure entered Yun Jiao's room, holding a dagger, trying to kill Yun Jiao, but before he could get close, he was trapped by a large net falling from the sky.

This was the trap that Fang Duo had set up in his room before his illness.

The moment the person was trapped, the candles in the room were lit, and Shen Haofeng and the three walked in from outside.

After seeing the person trapped in the net, Fang Duozhi was a little surprised, because this person was not Zongzheng Mingzhu, "Jade City Lord, are you going to kill Yun Jiao?" You're the one who killed Yu Qiushuang? ”

Hearing Fang Duo's words, Yu Mulan's expression was calm, "I'm just worried about her condition, so I came to visit her." ”

"This Yunjiao has been crazy for two days, you only came now, are you afraid that she will say the wrong thing without concealment?"

was accused by Li Lianhua "for no reason", Yu Mulan's tone was displeased, "Please pay attention to your words, don't forget your identity." ”

As soon as he put out the city lord's shelf, he heard an angry voice from outside the door, "What happened in the middle of the night?" ”

"Mrs. Jade came just in time, the murderer of the second lady is right in front of you." Fang Duozhi immediately spoke.

"What?!"

Glancing at Yu Mulan, Yu Hongzhu couldn't react a little, "Didn't Yun Jiao do it?" ”

Li Lianhua said: "Miss Yunjiao, it's just to help the city lord." ”

"Yujiao helping Yu Mulan?" Yun Hongzhu still can't understand.

"This Jade City Lord must have a lot to do with Miss Yun Jiao, Miss Yun once wrote a poem, but it was discovered by Mrs. Jade. The heart of the pearl is incomprehensible, and the flowers are lovesick. ”

Hearing this, Jade Red Candle was furious, "Isn't this poem written for..."

"It's not written for the son of Somasa?"

Zongzheng Mingzhu, who came in with the jade red candle, heard their words and hurriedly said: "Mingzhu has many meanings, and I dare not be beautiful in the next." I hope Mr. will explain in detail. ”

"This gorgeous flying flot is what Miss Yun's heart is about, and it is related to the dandelion pendant she wears on her hand. Hujiang Pu's family takes dandelion as the family emblem, and it seems that Mr. Pu has entered the Jade City and is very loyal to the Pu family. Li Lianhua looked at Yu Mulan with a look of approval.

Yu Hongzhu immediately looked at Yu Mulan, and before he could speak, Yu Hongzhu walked quickly to Yun Jiao, took her hand, and took off a bracelet with a dandelion pendant on her hand.

"So she's thinking about you." Yu Hongzhu scolded angrily, "Pu Mulan, I was fooled by you under your nose, and your Pu family's thoughts haven't been let go yet?" ”

As she spoke, she smashed the bracelet at Yu Mulan's feet.

Such a scene...

Li Lianhua said lightly: "More than ten years ago, the Pu family accumulated a lot of money through shadow puppetry, but it's a pity that the head of the family is a good gambler, so the Pu family wants to change their face and gain a good reputation." ”

After he finished speaking, Fang Duozhi clapped his hands.

Lime, the maid who was waiting for Yunjiao, took two shadow puppets from outside the door and came in.

"Mrs. Yu, this shadow puppet was found in the Xiaomian Inn, and the murderer wanted to use the shadow puppet to create a ghost murder scene. And another identical shadow puppet was found in the Jade City Lord's study. The Pu family has a unique school, called Bathing in Fire and Changing Thousands of Miles, but it can control silk for hundreds of miles. ”

After speaking, Li Lianhua looked at Yu Mulan, "The Pu family's peerless school is used to kill people, won't the ancestors of the Pu family hate Jiuquan?" ”

Yu Mulan smiled, "You're just digging up my old things and deliberately planting them." I have no grievances with her, why should I kill her? Okay, even if I killed the person, I would just throw the corpse far away, why should I do so much to expose the corpse? ”

"Of course you have a reason." Expecting him to say this, Li Lianhua said: "Pu Mulan, you are influenced by your father, and you are also born to gamble, and you have lost all your family property, so you can only enter the Jade City." It's a pity that you are a good gambler, in order to avoid Mrs. Jade, you can only pay off your debts while guarding the jade mine. ”

Li Lianhua looked at him, "Unfortunately, Yucheng's property, Yuqiushuang, also accounts for fifty percent. According to the rules, if Yu Qiushuang disappears, then these minerals are still hers, and only by proving that she is dead can Mrs. Yu inherit them all. Pu Mulan, that is, you, have so many opportunities to repay debts. ”

Speaking of this, Li Lianhua sighed, "Yucheng may be famous, too rich, but no one cares about what you do." Pu Mulan, I guessed right? ”

"You're spewing blood!"

Seeing that he was angry, it seemed that he was going to make a move in the next moment, Li Lianhua hurriedly pointed the finger at Fang Duozhi, "Fang Shaoxia." ”

Fang Duozhi took out a booklet from his body, "The Fang family's money is everywhere, just ask around, and find the accounts of this gambler, it's still very simple." ”

He handed the account book in his hand to the jade red candle.

The jade red candle immediately flipped over, and the more she looked at it, the more ugly her face became.

"Pu Mulan, this gambling house with a radius of 100 miles, I'm afraid you owe it all." Fang Duo said to Pu Mulan.

When he spoke, Yu Hongzhu had roughly finished reading the account book, she walked up to Pu Mulan angrily, and angrily smashed the account book on Pu Mulan, "Pu Mulan, you eat things inside and out, I thought you had already gotten rid of these bad habits when you joined my family." I didn't expect you to kill my sister for money?! ”

"Madam, how can I believe the words of these two charlatans, I don't have it."

"You don't?" Fang Duozhi immediately interrupted, "The Jade City Lord really doesn't leave a trace of trouble, you know that as long as you find the body of Miss Yu Er, and ask the guards who were present at the time, you will definitely find flaws, so you will set fire to the corpse at night." It's just that what you didn't expect was that Lady Jade rushed back ahead of time to retrieve the body from the fire that had not been completely burned. ”

After saying that, Fang Duozhi looked at the jade red candle, "It's a pity that Madam Yu was furious and executed all the guards at the door, so that they lost the opportunity to speak forever." You don't care about the life of the guards so much, how do you know that you are in the hands of the murderer? ”

"How deep are your thoughts?" Jade Red Candle stared at Pu Mulan in disbelief.

In such a situation now, if Pu Mulan continues to quibble, Fang Duo will not be able to do anything about him.

Li Lianhua walked in front of Yun Jiao and took out the broken jade and a golden needle from her body, "Miss Yun Jiao, you are infatuated with the Jade City Lord, but he wants to kill you tonight." Such a person is not worthy of you to defend him all the time. In the Xiaomian Inn, that gossamer needle was also blocked by the warm jade given to you by Miss Yuer, and she was sheltering you. You should get her justice, right? ”

"Yes." Looking at the broken jade in Li Lianhua's hand, Yun Jiao burst into tears, "I was wrong." At the beginning, he wanted to see the mystery inside, so I stole it to him. Unexpectedly... Yu Mulan, you should admit all this. ”

Her words undoubtedly showed that Li Lianhua's previous speculations were all true.

Yu Qiushuang was killed by Pu Mulan.

Seeing everyone looking at him, Pu Mulan had an extra gossamer needle in his hand, and shot it in the direction of Yun Jiao. A shot was fired, and he turned and fled.

Jade Red Candle and Zongzheng Mingzhu both chased out.

Before chasing him out, Fang Duozhi looked at Li Lianhua, "Martial arts are not good, be careful and protect him." In the latter sentence, he said it to Shen Haofeng.

Previously, Shen Haofeng showed a good secret weapon technique, and it was really not easy for ordinary people to get close to them.

As soon as Fang Duo went out, he saw Pu Mu Lan, who was hiding in the tree, sneak attack the Jade Red Candle and the Zongzheng Pearl with the Gossamer Needle, but they dodged it.

This gossamer needle is limited in releasing the golden needle each time, and compared to a hidden weapon like the rainstorm pear flower, the gap is still very large.

Unable to hit a single blow, Pu Mulan ran away again, but unfortunately this time he couldn't get his wish, staring at his Zongzheng Mingzhu, and after he hid in a tree, he shot him down with one palm.

"Poof." Pu Mulan, who fell from under the tree, spat blood.

"It turned out to be an empty palm."

"What?" Hearing the words of Li Lianhua, who didn't listen to him and stayed in the house and came out of it, Fang Duozhi turned his head and asked.

Seeing Pu Mulan fall to the ground, Jade Red Candle immediately scolded angrily, "I want to avenge Shuang'er!" ”

"Fang Duo is sick, stop her."

Even if Li Lianhua didn't mention it, Fang Duozhi couldn't watch the Jade Red Candle kill in front of him, he rushed forward with an arrow step, and swung his sword to block the Jade Red Candle.

The blocked jade red candle looked annoyed, "What are you going to do?" ”

"Mrs. Yu wants to avenge Ling Mei, I'm afraid she will have to take a precedence." Li Lianhua spoke out at the right time.

Jade Red Candle frowned, "What does this mean?" ”

Seeing the color of Li Lianhua, Fang Duo said sickly: "Don't forget Mrs. Yu, before Miss Yu died, she was seriously injured by palm power. Where this injury came from has not been solved, but I saw Zongzheng Gongzi make a move, and I suddenly solved our confusion. Zongzheng Gongzi, this kind of kung fu that does not hurt the epidermis, but can shatter all the internal organs, should be a hollow palm. ”

Zongzheng Pearl: "......"

He saved many illnesses from the Yucheng guards before, and was stabbed in the back in the blink of an eye?

"I was also curious before, Pu Mulan has a gossamer needle, and she can directly kill Yu Qiushuang, but why do you want to give her a palm? Now it seems that all the doubts are clear. Li Lianhua said: "Kill the second lady, why do you want to kill it twice, it's because the person who used the golden needle and hit a palm is not the same person." ”

"Prince Zongzheng, that slap was made by you."

Stunned for a moment, Zong Zhengzhu said: "I can split the empty palm, but why should I kill her?" ”

Li Lianhua looked at Shen Haofeng, and Shen Haofeng, who was looking at him, thought to himself, it seems that he has to find another opportunity to use a secret weapon, otherwise he will soon become a dirty job.

"The reason is very simple, because you have a personal affair with Madame Yu. You killed Yu Qiushuang because of the matter between you and Mrs. Yu, and she bumped into her. And you have the fragrance of osmanthus in Madame Yu's bedroom, but the Jade City Lord, who sleeps in the guest room all year round, does not. In a hurry just now, Mrs. Jade is also very protective of you. (End of chapter)
