Chapter 33: A belated affectionate confession
When the time comes, Yang Mei's crime will be confirmed, and Xiao Chengze will not dare to impose a heavy punishment, and Zhou Yunyi will naturally be alienated from Xiao Chengze.
You don't need to spend a single soldier to make the emperor and queen centrifuge perfectly.
Once there is a gap between the two people, the relationship can be repaired, Zhou Yunyi has no background to copy now, only Xiao Chengze's trust and love for her, once she loses these, she is just a worm that can be crushed to death at any time.
After Zhou Yunyi returned to her room, she couldn't help but hug her head and cry, she really couldn't understand why things suddenly turned out like this?
Xiao Chengze saw Zhou Yunyi crying so badly, he felt very uncomfortable, and he couldn't say anything effective when he wanted to comfort him.
simply let Zhou Yun release his emotions according to his feelings.
Zhou Yunyi cried very much in the first half, the tears were almost wet with his clothes, and in the second half, it was estimated that the tear reserve of his eyes had reached the limit, and he couldn't even cry out of his tears, and his eyes were swollen like two red lanterns.
Zhou Yunyi forced himself to calm down, because crying at this time could not solve the problem, and finally after a strong psychological suggestion, Zhou Yunyi stopped crying.
"Xiao Chengze, I feel that this matter is very strange."
"Of course, Yangmei has always been unaccustomed to me, with a flamboyant personality and a bully, but I don't think she will kill Xiaocui."
Xiao Chengze didn't expect that Zhou Yunyi's brain logic was still so clear now, in fact, he had already discovered this problem from just now, but taking into account Xiao Chengze's excited emotions, he was afraid that he would be misunderstood as arguing for Yangmei when he said this matter now.
Of course, bayberry has not completely cleared the suspicion.
Xiao Chengze said: "You also said it, she has always been bold and arrogant, maybe she ......."
Zhou Yunyi interrupted Xiao Chengze, "No, the murderer must be someone else." ”
Zhou Yunyi secretly swore in his heart that he must find out the real culprit and seek justice for Xiaocui.
The next day, the results of the autopsy came out, proving that Xiaocui had drowned.
Except for the scars on her face that were slapped and the wounds on her head that were hit by stones, Xiao Cui's other body parts did not have some fighting marks such as pulling and dragging, which shows that Xiao Cui knew the person who killed her, and even said that Xiao Cui had no defensive heart at all.
Zhou Yunyi read the autopsy report carefully, refused to let go of every detail, and was bound to dig three feet into the ground to find out the murderer.
Xiao Chengze felt that if this continued, Zhou Yunyi's spirit would definitely collapse, and he wanted to persuade her to go back to rest, but she didn't sleep all night yesterday, and now her eyes are full of bloodshots.
"You better go back to the room and rest first, I am here, don't worry, I will definitely help Xiaocui find justice." Xiao Chengze said.
Zhou Yunyi had no intention of going back, sitting there motionless? Suddenly, he said something without a head.
"Do you know Cui's identity?"
Of course, Xiao Chengze knows Xiaocui's identity, isn't it Zhou Yunyi's personal maid, but this statement is not entirely accurate, from the daily life of Zhou Yunyi and Xiaocui, it feels like they are not like master servants, but more like friends and sisters.
"I know you've always treated her like a sister."
Zhou Yunyi's scattered hair fluttered with the breeze, "I'm not discussing the relationship between the two of us, but asking you about Xiaocui's identity." ”
"Xiaocui is the maid I brought into the palace, I became the queen, and she became the queen's palace maid." Zhou Yunyi deliberately emphasized Xiaocui's status as a palace maid.
"Xiaocui is just a palace maid, if the status and identity of her murderer are far higher than Xiaocui, how will you choose?"
"Xiao Chengze, it's not that I don't want to trust you, it's just that you carry too many things as an emperor, and you are destined not to be chic and comfortable, nor can you be happy with revenge."
"I'm really afraid that you will hide the real murderer of Xiaocui from me because of the interests of the imperial court, so let me investigate it with you!"
Xiao Chengze was silent.
Zhou Yunyi is right, if a bigger conspiracy or greater power is really involved in this murder case, how should he deal with it?
Even he didn't know what to do.
Zhou Yunyi didn't continue to ask, but asked Xiao Chenzi to help find Wang Dascoop.
Xiaocui's heart has always admired Wang Dasco, but until the death, the two of them did not pierce this layer of window paper, and now Xiaocui has been. You go. He hoped that I would be able to see Cui for the last time. One came to send Xiaocui, and the last journey left no regrets for both of them.
After Wang Dascoo learned the news of Xiaocui's death, he was also shocked, unable to speak, unable to cry, and the whole person was like a frozen worm, motionless there. It wasn't until a while that he reacted, and he knelt directly on the ground and hugged his head and cried.
Wang Dasco is also a person who values love and righteousness. Although he and Xiaocui have not really determined the relationship, he has always treated Xiaocui as his future daughter-in-law, and he has not slackened at all.
When Lao Qian heard that such a big thing happened in the palace, he also hurried over, and saw that his apprentice was so stimulated, so he hurriedly pleaded with Zhou Yunyi, "Queen Mother, I don't think it's okay, don't let him see Miss Xiaocui first, I'm really afraid that he won't be able to stand it." ”
Just got a message, and I would have cried like this, if I really saw the corpse for a while. Lao Qian was really afraid that he, a stupid apprentice, wouldn't be able to think about it for a while, and followed Xiaocui.
Zhou Yunyi said: "I still have to see it, at least so that Wang Dasco will not leave regrets in his heart." ”
Wang Dascoo said resolutely: "Master Queen Mother, I want to see Xiaocui." ”
Zhou Yunyi took Wang Dasco and Lao Qian to the place where Xiaocai's body was parked.
In order to give Wang Dasco enough space, Zhou Yunyi and Lao Qian waited outside the door. Only let Wang Dascoo go in alone.
Wang Dasco looked at the cold corpse, his whole heart was about to break, he knelt next to the bed, held Xiao Cui's hand in his hand, and wanted to warm Xiao Cui's hands, but Xiao Cui's hands were too cold.
No matter how warm it is, Wang Dasco is unwilling to put his hand on his face.
"Xiaocui, I have never dared to tell you, in fact, I have always liked you."
"It's because I'm too inferior, I'm just a poor cook, I've been cooking for so many years, and I haven't saved a few taels of silver, so it's difficult to buy you a piece of jewelry."
"It's me who I'm sorry for you."
……
Zhou Yunyi listened to the crying in the room, and her emotions surged again and again.
"Old Qian, you take a good look at him here, don't let him do anything foolish." Zhou Yunyi instructed before leaving.
"The old minister obeys." Lao Qian, don't look like a rough man, but he also has a delicate side, people's hearts are fleshy, listening to his apprentice crying in it, Lao Qian's heart is not strange.
Xiaocui's girl Lao Qian has seen it twice, each time she looks at it from a distance, and she has never gone up to say a word to Xiaocui, but he can see that Wang Dasco has always liked Xiaocui, and Xiaocui also likes Wang Dasco, who is a master, and even thinks that if the two of them hold a wedding, they must show their hands at the wedding banquet.
Unfortunately, these good wishes cannot be fulfilled now.
Situ Rou helped Xiao Chengze check almost everyone in the entire palace, and did not find a single so-called eyewitness.
Situ Rou lowered her head and reported to Zhou Yunyi in frustration, "There are no new discoveries." ”
Zhou Yunyi had long expected that this would be the case, the murderer dared to do it, which means that there will definitely be no one around when he does it, unless it is a gang committing a crime.
"Thank you for your hard work." Zhou Yunyi knew that Situ Rou had been running around all night and hadn't slept until now, and she didn't have time to rest for a while.
Situ Rou said: "This level is nothing to me, and I used to stay awake day and night when I was in the barracks. It's just a pity that I don't have the talent to investigate cases, and I have been investigating for so long, but I have found nothing. ”
"If you can still persevere, why don't you accompany me to the Blue Bird Palace!"
Zhou Yunyi decided to go to meet Yangmei for a while.
"Okay." Situ Rou quickly agreed.
The two of them went to Yangmei's dormitory together.
At this time, Yangmei was under house arrest in the palace, and many people were sent to guard her.
Zhou Yunyi, relying on her identity as the queen, successfully walked in with Situ Rou.
Yangmei has no video at this time, she is glamorous on weekdays, but she doesn't comb her hair and her face like a crazy woman, looking at the two of them.
If it was in normal times, Zhou Yunyi would have started to laugh at Yangmei wildly, but now she doesn't care what Yangmei's image is now, "I want to talk to you about yesterday's events." ”
Yangmei was upset in the face of the sudden black cauldron. "What is there to talk about, you won't believe me when I say it, I said it yesterday, I just slapped her a few times, and it's none of my business if she dies."
Yangmei's tone of voice scared the red rice on the side, if she continued to mess around like this with her master, I am afraid that she would not do it in the end. It became that she did it.
Hongmi hurriedly took two quick steps and knelt in front of Zhou Yunyi.
"Queen Niangniang, the slave maid's name is Red Rice is the palace maid of the good concubine Yesterday, the slave and the maid also followed the good concubine Niangniang, if the queen mother has anything to ask, you can ask the slave and maid as much as possible. The slave must know everything, and the words are endless. ”
"You're a funny person." Situ Rou said.
Zhou Yunyi looked at this red rice as an honest person, "Tell me about yesterday, I want to know some specific details." ”
"Yesterday, our mother did slap Miss Xiaocui a few times. But don't leave after that, and never do anything else. Song Guifei can testify to this, Song Guifei was also at the scene at the time, and we left one after another. ”
Zhou Yunyi frowned, when he saw her yesterday, why didn't he see her reveal half a point.
"What is Concubine Song doing there?"
Hongmi continued to answer without humility or arrogance, "Concubine Song didn't do anything, she just said a few words to our mother when she passed by. ”
"Later, I said that I would invite our mother to enjoy the lotus flowers together."
In other words, Song Guifei was going to go to the Imperial Garden to enjoy the lotus flowers at first, but she didn't go, and changed her mind to see Xiao Chengze, Xiao Chengze had already told her about Song Guifei going to wait for him at the door of the study yesterday.
Unable to find eyewitnesses or insiders, Zhou Yunyi could only comb from scratch.
Xiaocui is a maid, very well-behaved, and naturally will not provoke any enemies when interacting with people, if she is really not a concubine in the palace, relying on her power to kill people, then there is only one possibility left, what does the murderer want to get or hide something through Xiaocui's death?
Zhou Yunyi's intuition told her that this incident was related to the last assassin incident.
The mastermind behind them should be very aware of their experiences, and even hide in the people around them.
