Storeroom?

Shen Qing's mind flashed, and she looked at the maid and asked, "The treasury is usually locked, she wants to go to the warehouse, can she bring the key with her?" ”

The maid was stunned for a moment, shook her head and said: "There should be no, the key to the back kitchen warehouse is in charge of the Fang steward, and the servants next to him want to go to the treasury to get things, they must find the Fang steward first, and only after getting the permission of the Fang steward can they take the key over......"

"No, it's not."

A calm and somewhat sad female voice suddenly came, and as this voice sounded, a neatly dressed woman in her thirties suddenly walked out of the crowd, respectfully saluted Guo Qingfu and Shen Qing, and said, "The slave has seen Mrs. and Mrs. Yu Xiang."

The slave maid is the head of the kitchen in the house, and the steward that the little girl said is the slave maid. The key to the back kitchen warehouse is indeed in the hands of the slave and maid, and other people who want to go to the back kitchen warehouse on weekdays must indeed be approved by the slave and maid first.

It's just that Qingshuang has been working under the slave maid for many years, and the slave maid has always trusted her, but whenever a banquet is held in the house, the slave and maid will give Qingshuang a spare key to the warehouse, so she is worried that there will be too many guests, and the slave and maid will not be able to take care of her alone. ”

She was still gasping for breath as she spoke, apparently hurrying over.

When Shen Qing heard this, he immediately squatted next to the corpse again, and directly searched her body.

There was another uncontrollable exclamation from the side.

Shen Qing is not on them now, and he can't help but laugh, but he is just fiddling with a corpse, is it necessary to be so surprised?

When she was working under the former emperor who was still the crown prince, let alone the autopsy and investigation, from giving advice to the prince to solving the daily sesame trivial matters for the people, what did she not do?

She's even climbed over piles of dead, through plague-ridden villages, and on bloody battlefields.

This also led to her being forced to learn a bunch of messy skills, and this simple autopsy technique was learned back at that time.

Those who have gone down to the grassroots level are fearless!

She quickly searched the deceased's body, her face couldn't help but sink even more, she stood up and looked at Guo Qingfu and said, "The deceased doesn't have the key to the treasury on him. ”

Steward Fang's eyes widened, and he shook his head and said: "Impossible, impossible, the slave did give the spare key to Qingshuang, with Qingshuang's temperament, she would never throw the key away on such an important occasion!" ”

There is only one explanation –

The key was taken by the murderer!

Guo Qingfu immediately said: "Come on, immediately send someone to search for the murderer, focusing on the treasury of the back kitchen!" ”

The guard, who had been on standby for a long time, immediately answered and hurriedly turned to do something.

Shen Qing took the handkerchief handed over by Guo Qingfu's maidservant, and said while wiping his hand: "Afu, I have a bad premonition, let's go over and have a look together......"

Before she finished speaking, an excited girl's voice came from next to her, "Madam, you really ...... It's amazing! But in the blink of an eye, this case was solved! ”

Mrs. Yu Xiang may be even more powerful than the Qingtian Lord in the mansion!

But I saw that it was the girl who had been asking Shen Qing questions just now.

The noble lady standing beside her was probably her mother, she couldn't help but slap the girl lightly, turned to Shen Qing and saluted, and said with a somewhat embarrassed smile: "Madame smiled, the concubine's surname is Wen, and she is the wife of Yang Kaide, the head of the household department."

This is a little girl, the little girl is young, and her temperament has not yet been settled. ”

Yang Kaide is another acquaintance.

When she was working under the crown prince with him, the guy was very stingy and old-fashioned, and often quarreled with her for appropriations, but he couldn't argue with her, and in the end he could only point to her nose angrily and scold, "You...... You scumbag! ”

But he didn't expect that in the blink of an eye, his daughters were so old!

Shen Qing remembered the scene of arguing with Yang Kaide back then, and suddenly felt that the girl looked more kind, and couldn't help but smile slightly: "It's okay, the daughter is curious, bold and lively, I like it very much." ”

When the girl heard this, her eyes couldn't help but brighten, and when she saw Shen Qing smiling at her, she lowered her head a little shyly.

When Mrs. Wen saw that Shen Qing not only did not blame her daughter, but also said that she liked her, she couldn't help but be stunned, and also smiled, "The little girl is stubborn, she doesn't deserve such high praise from Mrs. Wen." It's just that the lady is so proficient in investigating the case, and the concubine is also deeply admired. ”

Shen Qing suddenly said modestly: "I don't dare to say that I am proficient, but I understand a little." ”

After all, she didn't specialize in investigating cases, she just did too many things and had been in contact with them.

What is this called? God chooses to beat workers, who uses who knows!

Slightly understood......

The crowd was silent.

Is this still called a little understanding? Why don't you see them and understand a little bit?!

Shen Qing thought about the murderer, and after talking to Mrs. Wen, he and Guo Qingfu rushed to the back kitchen warehouse.

Guo Qingfu said in confusion as she walked: "That murderer killed Qingshuang, could it be that he just wanted to take away the key to the treasury on her?" However, it was just the back kitchen warehouse of our Hou Mansion, and it was full of things that would be used in the back kitchen, but there were nothing of value. ”

"That murderer is not for money, if it is only for money, he doesn't need to take such a big risk to kill, not to mention that, as you said, he only took a key to the back kitchen."

Shen Qing said: "But don't worry, when you catch him, you will naturally know his purpose." ”

Guo Qingfu couldn't help but look at Shen Qing, "Now that things are so big, do you think the murderer will go to the back kitchen warehouse?" ”

"Probably, if that place he wants to go to at the cost of murder, it means that he has a reason to go there."

Therefore, it can be dangerous there.

Shen Qing was about to remind Guo Qingfu when a frightened scream came from not far away-

"Ahhh

Immediately, there was a group of guards shouting, "Put down your weapons!" If you continue to hurt people, don't think about getting out of Wei Qihou's Mansion alive today! ”

Shen Qing and Guo Qingfu sighed in their hearts, hurriedly quickened their pace, and soon walked to the door of the back kitchen warehouse.

In front of him, a tall man in a blue-gray robe, about twenty years old, was holding a maid from the Marquis of Wei Qi's mansion with a frantic look on his face, holding a kitchen knife that seemed to have come back from the back kitchen, and the muscles of his cheeks trembled and said, "You guys...... Get out of here! Get out of here! ”

The guards who had passed ahead of him cautiously surrounded him, but they did not dare to act rashly because of the hostages in his hands.

Shen Qing's face instantly turned cold.

Things are going in the worst direction.

Some of the guests who came to see the excitement with Shen Qing and them were frightened and exclaimed again and again when they saw this scene.

"Ah Qing," Guo Qingfu whispered in Shen Qing's ear: "That man is not wearing the clothes of our Wei Qihou Mansion, he is not from our Wei Qihou Mansion!" Which guest brought the servant......"

After all, just by looking at what he is wearing, you can know that he is definitely not the master.

Xu is sudden arrival of so many people stimulated the man, his pupils shrank suddenly, and he strode back two steps with the maid in his arms, and his voice was actually crying as if he was in extreme pain: "Why! Why are you all pushing me! I'm just ...... Just want something like that! Why can't I find anything like that anywhere! ”
