Chapter 718: It's better to have a clue than no clue
Chunhong raised his eyes and looked at Lu Gongxuan: "Great, my lord, you didn't ask me this before!" ”
"Even if the official didn't ask this, you didn't know how to take the initiative to explain? You must know that these are important clues, and you are not aware of them. ”
Lu Gong asked sharply, and Chunhong's frightened body trembled.
"My lord, the slave really didn't mean to hide it, what the slave just said, the backyard house knows it."
Lu Gongqiu still refuses to give up.
Su Yixin: "......"
Lu Gong's other skills, Su Yixin didn't know, but this was the ability to shake the pot, and it was really slippery.
Just a maid who serves people.
As long as you don't have special training, when you are asked by adults, you will answer whatever you ask.
Want them to know how much?
He is dignified, he doesn't have any responsibility at all, and he still has to throw the pot like this.
Gu Qingjue looked at Lu Gongxuan: "Lord Lu, now that this maid has explained these things, do you have an idea to solve the case?" ”
"This official still needs to take care of it."
Gu Qingjue's tone was cold and hard: "Then Lord Lu will take care of it first." ”
In terms of grade, Gu Qingjue and Lu Gongjue are both third-grade officials, but Gu Qingjue still has a title, so Gu Qingjue spoke to him in such an unpolite tone, and Lu Gongjue had to obediently close his mouth.
Gu Qingjue looked at Chunhong again: "This official asks you, what have happened to these flowers in the courtyard after the death of Princess Qi?" ”
"Flowers?"
Chunhong looked at the yard behind her for some reason: "The slave hasn't paid attention to the flowers and plants in the yard these days, so I don't know." ”
Gu Qingjue looked at Lord Bao, Lord Bao understood, nodded at Lou Qing, Lou Qing, who was wearing fast clothes, stood up and took Chunhong to the place where there were flowers and plants in the yard to see everything.
During this period, Gu Qingjue came to Princess Qi's bedroom to check.
King Qi rushed to the courtyard as soon as he went to the courtyard of the side concubine to report Princess Qi's death that night in Chunya, and sealed off all the things in the courtyard, especially this room, except for the corpse of Princess Qi that had been taken away, it was still the same as that night.
Dali advocates white, Princess Qi married to the Great Song Dynasty, knowing that the white color of the Great Song Dynasty is unlucky, but she still can't help but decorate her room to white.
What if King Qi didn't feel bad because of this?
I guess there is.
Whoever likes to sleep in the room, there is white silk floating everywhere, even the tent is white.
It's just that he didn't rest twice in Princess Qi's bedroom, so it doesn't matter.
After Su Yixin entered the house, she took a little look and found that there was a problem with the furnishings of the house, although the problem was not big, but if you lived here for a long time, people were prone to fantasy and pessimism.
"Chunhong, is the decoration of this bedroom all from your princess?"
Chunhong nodded: "Yes." It's all the princess's own idea, we're just helping to guard it. ”
As Chunhong said, that section of the Rong did not understand the five elements of feng shui at all, otherwise she would not have placed the head of the bed in the middle of the room, and there was no obstruction on all sides.
In the Five Elements of Feng Shui, the head of the bed must be against the wall or the real thing, and there must be no gaps, which is called "backing the mountain" in Feng Shui. There is no such "backer" at the head of the bed, which is extremely taboo in the eyes of those who understand occultism.
She's lived here for a year and has definitely been affected.
But that wasn't enough to make her fatal.
After looking around, except for Su Yixin's view of the entire layout of the room from the perspective of feng shui, there were some problems, and even Gu Qingjue did not find anything abnormal.
Master Bao can be famous through the ages, and there is no doubt about his ability.
After they came out of the dormitory, Lou Qing and Chunhong came back, and Lou Qing reported to Bao Zheng with a happy face: "My lord, we just checked around, Chunhong confessed, there is a kind of flower and plant that has been replaced." ”
This is the most powerful clue that Princess Qi got after her death.
A few people went to the place where they found the flowers and plants, just behind Princess Qi's bedroom, near the window opening of the back wall.
Chunhong pointed to the replaced flowers and plants: "This is it." ”
The flowers and plants planted are indeed a little different from the flowers and plants of others, but the soil at the roots of the flowers and plants is almost the same as the soil next to them.
There is no sun in Kaifeng these days, although there is no rain, but it is very cold, if you are sure that these flowers and plants are replaced, then this soil is no different from the next one, it is definitely not replaced in these two days, it must be earlier.
Su Yixin remembered that Pan Gong said that when he came to this courtyard, he smelled a strange fragrance of flowers.
Now that the fragrance of the flowers is gone, the time to replace the flowers and plants should be after the second day of the first month and before yesterday.
There is an interval of five days in between.
If you need to use flowers and plants to harm people, it shouldn't be a powerful magician, or just an ordinary person.
Of course, this is only speculation based on current clues.
It's better to have a clue than no clue.
Bao Zheng immediately checked in the Qi Palace, who had entered Princess Qi's courtyard in the past five days.
Fortunately, when Lord Bao took away Princess Qi's body, he left Wang Chao and Dong Ping to guard the courtyard, and King Qi also sent people to strengthen the care here.
The entry and exit of the yard are recorded these days.
When the dynasty brought the list over, several people were silent.
"Because in the past few days, only Mother Wan beside the old princess, Mother Rong next to the queen in the palace, and people from the Dali embassy have entered Princess Qi's courtyard."
They are now in the Qi Palace.
The old princess's health has not been very good, so King Qi made an excuse to let Mother Wan come to the front hall alone.
Don't wait for Lord Bao to ask out loud.
Lu Gongxuan was the first to speak: "Mother Wan, this official asked you, what were you doing in the courtyard of Princess Qi on the afternoon of the second day of the new year?" ”
Mother Wan is not Chunhong.
She has served the old princess for forty or fifty years, and what kind of official has never seen it, and Lu Gongxuan can't scare her like this.
After bowing calmly, he said, "The old slave was ordered by the old princess to go to the courtyard to take care of the princess's afterlife. ”
Princess Qi died.
Whether it's suicide or homicide, what should be prepared is always prepared.
Concubine Gao was taken away, and there was no one in charge of the entire Qi Palace, so the old princess could only send this henchman to handle it.
This explanation is reasonable and not in the slightest.
"Have you ever been ......there?"
When Lu Gongxuan just wanted to ask Wan's mother if she had been to the back of the bedroom, she was immediately interrupted by Lord Bao.
"Mother Wan, where were you walking around in the princess's courtyard that day?"
"Lord Huibao, because the prince has an order, you are not allowed to touch the things in the courtyard at will, because the old slave only glanced at the princess's door, and then ordered these little guys to hang up the white sails in the courtyard, that's it."
"During this period, every move of the few little guys who were admitted to the hospital with you were in your eyes, and they didn't go to the side?"
Mother Wan recalled for a moment, and then nodded: "Yes, they just hung up the white sails and left with the old slave." (End of chapter)
