Volume 1 Son-in-law Breaks into the World Chapter 217 Night Rain Assassination
Zhao Xuanyi went through all the things of today in his mind, then slowly opened his eyes, then shook his head and said softly
"Careless!" The sky has slowly darkened, and it is about to get dark, Zhao Xuanyi has been sitting here for about an hour, and there was a sound of footsteps downstairs, only to see a few figures walking up slowly.
When Shen Wei saw these people, he hurriedly knelt down
"Greetings to the eldest princess!"
"Flatten! Zhao Gongzi is inside? Zhu Yuejun asked.
"Yes! My young master has been waiting for you for an hour! Zhu Yuejun smiled slightly, and after pushing the door open, he saw Zhao Xuanyi sitting on a chair, Zhao Xuanyi saw Zhu Yuejun, hurriedly got up, and wanted to kneel down to salute, Zhao Xuanyi spoke directly
"No, I only looked for you in the morning, and you came to me in the evening? Zhao Gongzi is very smart, so he found out the results so quickly? Zhao Xuanyi looked at the four maidservants standing at the door, and Zhu Yuejun also understood what Zhao Xuanyi meant
"You're waiting outside!"
"Yes!" The four girls closed the door and guarded the outside. Zhu Yuejun sat opposite Zhao Xuanyi
"Alright, what do you have to say now!" Zhao Xuanyi sighed
"Eldest princess, I'm afraid I can't give you an answer to this matter!" Hearing this, Zhu Yuejun frowned
"What does Zhao Gongzi mean by this?"
"I have already found out the cause of Zhou Bowen's death, and I also understand how natural the sedan chair is, but I can't find out the person who did it!" Zhu Yuejun was very surprised
"Did you find out how Zhou Bowen's sedan chair spontaneously combusted?"
"Yes!"
"Tell me, what's going on?" Zhu Yuejun hurriedly said.
"Brother Shen, what did I ask you to buy?" Zhao Xuanyi shouted.
"In!" Shen Wei pushed open the door and put a small bag of things on the house table! Then go out and close the door.
The four maidservants outside were curious, what was inside? But before he could see it clearly, he was closed by Shen Wei and saw nothing.
Zhao Xuanyi put a bag of things in front of Zhu Yuejun
"This is what killed Zhou Bowen! It's so easy to buy! Zhu Yuejun stretched out his hand and slowly took it, opened the oil paper outside, only to see that the inside was white powder, stuck a little with his fingers, and looked at it carefully
"It's not poison!" Zhao Xuan said in his heart, how did this girl grow so big?
"It's quicklime! Forget it, I can't understand the estimate for you, I'll show you! Zhao Xuanyi took out his handkerchief, put a little quicklime in a spoon and put it in the handkerchief!
After wrapping, put it in a teacup, then take a few pieces of paper, tear them all up, tear them very finely, turn them into paper wool, and then pour some water into the tea cup and put the paper wool on top.
Zhu Yuejun saw Zhao Xuanyi's so many operations, and she was in a fog
"What are you doing here?"
"Shh......h You'll find out later! Zhao Xuanyi whispered. After more than ten seconds, I saw a puff of white smoke suddenly coming out of the teacup, and then I heard a small sound, and half a minute later, I saw that the paper wool on the teacup burned instantly!
Zhu Yuejun was startled when she saw it, and looked at the flame in the teacup incredulously, she really didn't know that this quicklime and water could also ignite the paper!
And the maidservant outside saw the fire in the room, thought it was dangerous, and instantly pushed open the door and rushed in
"Eldest princess, are you alright?" Zhu Yuejun looked at the few maids who rushed in, with a look of anger
"Get out, who let you in?" When several maidservants saw the flames in the teacup, they all didn't know what was going on, but Zhu Yuejun's order was heard very clearly, and they all walked out of the room and closed the door!
All the paper inside the teacup was burned, and only black paper ash remained
"It was raining heavily last night, and the sedan chair that Zhou Bowen was riding in secretly threw the lime bag into the sedan chair, and the quicklime began to heat up when it encountered water, and finally let the sedan chair be ordered!"
"That's it? How could such a small thing set such a large sedan on fire? When I heard that the fire was shining on you, the fire was very big! Zhu Yuejun said.
"That's because of tung oil!" Zhu Yuejun looked at Zhao Xuanyi in surprise
"Tung oil? Where does tung oil come from? Zhao Xuanyi continued
"Today I went to the scene of the crime with Wang Heming, and I didn't find any useful information, when I asked Wang Heming, Zhou Bowen went there, and he took me to a small temple not far from the scene of the crime, and after we just arrived at the meeting at the door, I found that something was wrong!"
"There is a shallow layer of tung oil floating on the muddy ground, no matter how heavy the rain is, the tung oil will still remain, but because it is dark, and it is raining, they can't see what is on the ground when they put down the sedan chair, even if there is tung oil, it will be regarded as rain!"
"In this way, the bottom of the sedan chair is stained with tung oil, when Zhou Bowen got off the sedan chair and walked, the tung oil was also glued to his feet, and when he came back, because it was dark, he couldn't see anything in the sedan chair at all, or the murderer wrapped the lime in a black cloth, and he couldn't see it at all!"
The lime bag caused a small flame, which directly ignited Zhou Bowen, and then the whole sedan chair was ignited, and the fire with tung oil would not be afraid of that bit of rain at all, Zhou Bowen still had tung oil on his body, so he would burn him alive! I have found lime grinding on the wreckage of the sedan chair today, and I have let Wang Heming keep it! You can have people ask! After Zhu Yuejun heard Zhao Xuanyi's words, the whole person was already shocked and couldn't speak, and after taking a teacup and taking a sip of water, he spoke
"You've found so much in one day today?"
"Almost!"
"Then do you know who the murderer is?" Zhao Xuanyi shook his head
"I'm not sure, I must have been among the four sedan chair drivers at that time, and the personal guards were always by Zhou Bowen's side, even if it was to enter the temple, the sedan chair was only guarded by these four sedan chair men at this time, and it was impossible for others to put the lime bag in without knowing it!"
"Wouldn't that be easy to investigate? Do you continue? Zhu Yuejun hurriedly said. Zhao Xuanyi smiled and looked at Zhu Yuejun with a helpless face
"We just started investigating the palanquin man, and we just suspected a person and asked our subordinates to interrogate him, but the palanquin man committed suicide!"
"Suicide? Such a coincidence? Zhu Yuejun asked.
"Of course it can't be such a coincidence. It was he who killed! Although it seems that he hanged himself, it is simply impossible! Have you seen the cell in Dali Temple? Zhu Yuejun nodded
"It's those wooden cells, I've seen them!"
"When this palanquin man died, he used his belt to pass through the stake above, and then hanged himself, but the cell of Dali Temple was more than a zhang high from the ground, and even if he stepped on a stool, he couldn't reach it, how did he wrap the rope around the stake?" Zhu Yuejun thought about it
"Thrown out?"
"No way, I saw that rope, it only went around a stake, how could it be so coincidental? Throw out the rope using all your might, how is it possible to go around only one stake? ”
"That's what he climbed up to? Tie the rope and jump off? Zhao Xuanyi shook his head
"No, I've seen his hands, they're very clean, there's nothing in the fingernails, not even a bit of dust or sawdust, and there's no dust on him, so it proves that he didn't climb up at all, and his hands are too clean!"
"And after the hanged person is hanged, he instinctively grabs the rope with his hands, and the taste is not good at all, usually there will be some things left in his nails, but his hands are a little too clean, so he must have committed suicide!" After Zhu Yuejun heard it, he also understood what Zhao Xuanyi meant
"The hands of this group of people actually reached into the Dali Temple?"
"He was killed, so in order not to let the real murderer find out, I walked out of Dali Temple directly, and I didn't check in there, I was afraid that these people would know my thoughts before I killed the real murderer! And I've already asked Zhou Qihua! ”
"His father didn't believe in Buddhism at all, and no one in their family believed in it, and they didn't worship it, which means that Zhou Bowen went to the temple to have something else to do! As for what it is, I don't know, but Zhou Bowen is busy with one thing now, and that is the emperor's birthday! ”
"Eldest princess, you have something to hide from me, and you didn't tell me everything!" Zhao Xuanyi looked at Zhu Yuejun with sharp eyes!
Zhu Yuejun saw Zhao Xuanyi's eyes, her expression was a little unnatural, she didn't expect that Zhao Xuanyi could find out so much in one day, Zhu Yuejun instinctively swallowed a mouthful of saliva
"Zhao Gongzi, actually I ......?" Before Zhu Yuejun finished speaking, Zhao Xuanyi stretched out his hand to stop Zhu Yuejun's words
"Eldest princess, this matter is too big, I am not from Dali Temple or Yamen, so I don't plan to investigate it! I'm already feeling the danger, and this matter has nothing to do with me, so I don't want to get in trouble! Zhu Yuejun was very angry when she heard Zhao Xuanyi's words
"Are you scared?"
"That's right! Isn't it normal for me to be scared? Could it be that my eldest princess is a person who is not afraid of heaven and earth in her eyes? That's really a disappointment to you, I'll have one life, I still have a lot of things to do, this thing is too dangerous, and I don't need to risk it! ”
"Even if I risk my life to find out to the end, what I find must be a person I can't kill, I don't benefit at all, why bother? Is it possible to let this person know that I have found him, and I can't kill him, but prevent this person from assassinating me every day? Sorry, I don't really have this hobby! Zhao Xuanyi said very seriously.
Zhu Yuejun took a deep breath, and didn't know how to persuade Zhao Xuanyi, because Zhu Yuejun also knew the danger of this matter, and when Zhu Yuejun was thinking, Zhao Xuanyi spoke again.
"The clues of the matter and the results I found out are all told to you, the eldest princess, and I will leave first if there is nothing to do!" Zhao Xuanyi got up and left after speaking.
"Can you wait a minute......?"
"By the way, I will send you a message for the eldest princess for free, when I checked this matter today, it reminded me of another thing, does the eldest princess still remember Guo Da?" Zhao Xuanyi asked.
"Tobe Langchu!" Zhu Yuejun said.
"Yes, it's the one who died in the Drunken Spring Building, I always feel that the deaths of these two people are not so coincidental, if you are interested enough, you can check it out!" After Zhao Xuanyi finished speaking, he didn't wait for Zhu Yuejun to speak, pushed open the door and left.
Shen Wei drove the carriage out of the teahouse, the road was very calm, the rain in the sky was still falling, no one knew when it would be clear, the inside of the rain accumulation was very smooth, the carriage continued to press the water on the road, making a special sound, as if it was the sound of a knife chopping watermelon!
After the carriage came to a dark street, Shen Wei suddenly felt very bad, grabbed the reins, stood up, and slowly pulled out the steel knife at his waist
"Who? Don't be sneaky, come out! Shen Wei shouted loudly. I saw that on the dark street corner, two people in black night clothes walked out, two black veils masked, I couldn't see what they looked like, and I could only see their murderous eyes when the lightning and thunder roared!
Shen Wei smiled coldly
"When did there become so many killers in the capital? Is this still at the feet of the Son of Heaven? One of the men in black spoke, a very neutral man's voice
"I'm just here to say hello today and tell your son-in-law, don't be nosy, otherwise you won't be so polite next time!" And Zhao Xuanyi, who was sitting in the carriage, let out a sneer when he heard it
"Threatening so politely? I got it! ”
"Zhao Gongzi is so self-conscious!" After the two finished speaking, they turned around and slowly retreated into the night, but in the next second, they saw the flickering of swords and swords in the night, and after a few sounds of weapons colliding, there was a scream!
Shen Wei sat down, flicked the reins, the carriage slowly walked over, and when he got closer, he saw that the four moon guards had already captured these two people, one was dead, and the other was still alive!
"Zhao Gongzi, you are good, they really did it!" A moon guard said. Zhao Xuanyi didn't open the curtain either, and asked directly
"Who is your master?"
"You think I'm going to say?" As soon as the man's voice fell, he immediately bit the poison in his mouth, his eyes were gone, and there was no life!
Yuewei looked at it, dumbfounded, and was busy in vain
"...... this?"
"Guessed! Go back and tell the eldest princess, I don't want to continue to investigate this matter, let her check it herself, I don't have her identity that no one dares to kill! Go home! Zhao Xuanyi shouted loudly.
"Yes!" Shen Wei flicked the reins, and the carriage slowly left the street and walked towards Piaoyun Pavilion.
