Chapter 19: The Princess's Mansion is in Distress
Ye Scarlet looked at the guards who were following her.
If she was right, the guard who broke in from the south was not the same person who assassinated the eldest princess, then the person who assassinated the eldest princess should not have come in from the south.
First, if the person had come in from the south, and many of the guards of the eldest princess were on the south side, if there were two of them, the guards would not have been unaware.
Second, the person who assassinated the eldest princess had already committed suicide by poisoning, and if that person was from the eldest princess's mansion, he would have already been recognized.
Through these two points, she had enough reason to suspect that the assassin in the south was only trying to attract attention, so that the person who actually assassinated the eldest princess could succeed in finding the eldest princess.
However, there is also a suspicion, this assassin in the south can not find a trace after injuring so many guards, which shows that his skills are very high.
So why was the one who stabbed the eldest princess caught and committed suicide by taking poison?
If they fled directly, they would not be even more traceless, and it would be easier to frame Yan Jifan.
Now leaving a corpse behind makes her suspect that there are two assassins.
She glanced around the guards in the eldest princess's mansion.
"I know the situation, the guards in the eldest princess's mansion have been rearranged by Lord Yan, so I have to ask Lord Yan about some situations." She made an excuse and left the Eldest Princess's Mansion.
Out of the eldest princess's mansion, she rode a fast horse and galloped towards Yan Jifan's mansion.
She went straight to the study, and when she saw Yan Jifan, she didn't care about saluting, and said directly: "There was an accident in the eldest princess's mansion, you should know, right?" ”
Yan Jifan pursed his lips, helplessness flashed in his eyes.
The woman was becoming more and more rude in front of him.
He put down the official document in his hand and asked Ye Scarlet what he wanted to say with his eyes.
"I think there should have been two assassins who broke into the princess's mansion last night, one was deliberately to attract the attention of the guards, and the other took the opportunity to sneak into the princess's mansion and hurt the eldest princess, but there is one thing I don't understand." Ye Scarlet said bluntly.
After listening to Yan Jifan, she looked at Ye Crimson twice, and she was able to discover this.
"Go on."
"If one Assassin can attract the attention of so many guards, why would another Assassin kill himself by poisoning? If the Assassin doesn't leave a trace, it will be even harder for us to find out the truth. ”
Ye Scarlet looked at Yan Jifan directly, she really wanted Yan Jifan to get an answer here.
"You're right, if you have the ability, the plan you are talking about is the most perfect. But things in this world can't be done just by thinking about it, do you really think that this official's arrangement of the eldest princess's mansion is a good breakthrough? Yan Jifan said with a smile.
In this way, the person who wants to use the eldest princess to deal with Yan Jifan is not so capable.
Ye Feise's confidence suddenly increased, "I know, those people want the eldest princess to doubt your ability, so the eldest princess doesn't trust you, even if the assassin is guilty, but you readjusted the guards of the eldest princess's mansion but didn't protect the eldest princess, as long as the eldest princess is to blame, you won't be able to get any benefits." ”
Yan Jifan's face was filled with satisfaction.
It's not easy for a girl to figure out the doorway.
"But my lord, in fact, I have a suspicion, the assassin who attracted the attention of the guards, I think it is from the Eldest Princess's Mansion, and there may be a thief in the Eldest Princess's Mansion. In this way, the assassin who really injured the eldest princess committed suicide, and there was another purpose, that is, to cover up the thief who was really in the palace! ”
This is also what Ye Scarlet just thought.
When she was in the Eldest Princess's Mansion, she was really uneasy about this, but at that time, this feeling was only vague, and she didn't figure it out herself.
Now talking to Yan Jifan, she suddenly opened her mouth.
Yan Jifan's heart moved, and he suddenly realized: "The official said why he didn't find any trace of the assassin in the capital last night after checking in the capital for a night, if it is really as you said, that assassin is an internal thief, it can be explained." ”
He hadn't even thought of that.
"My lord knows so much, but he doesn't tell me anything." Ye Scarlet glanced at Yan Jifan dissatisfied.
If Yan Jifan told her what she knew, she wouldn't have to spend so much effort to check it herself, and she wouldn't have to deal with Song Yu.
Really, can't there be more trust between people?
"Everyone's perspective is different, in order to find different problems, if the official tells you in advance, you have a preconceived idea, can you still find the problem?" Yan Jifan gave her a blank look.
Ye Scarlet also rolled her eyes, pulled the corners of her mouth, and asked weakly: "Then what do you want to do next?" ”
If Yan Jifan already had an idea, it would save her brains.
"The official has no idea, you can check how you want, do you still want to rely on the official all the time?" Yan Jifan's voice sank.
"My lord thinks too much, I just think that people who deal with you can have one heart, but we are hiding from each other here, just afraid that people will take the lead. Anyway, things are not directed at subordinates, and the adults themselves are not worried, and the subordinates have nothing to worry about. The subordinates went to the eldest princess to find clues and leave. ”
Ye Crimson's voice was also cold.
No one is in a hurry, what is she anxious about.
If something really happens to Yan Jifan, it's a big deal that she is self-reliant.
People are targeting Yan Jifan, not her.
Looking at her back, Yan Jifan was confused again.
Isn't what he said true?
And he thinks that Ye Scarlet is capable, but he always has to go through the experience and sum up his experience before he can be independent.
Originally, he thought that Ye Scarlet was just a little higher than others in autopsy and medical skills, but he didn't want Ye Scarlet's brain to be smarter than others.
That only made a work also buried the leaf crimson.
If Ye Scarlet can solve this case alone, then he can promote Ye Scarlet to convince the public.
"My lord, hairpin Hong just told his subordinates that Doctor Ye was not only angry with Song Yu in the princess's mansion, but Song Yu also did something to Doctor Ye." Atractylodes walked in and said.
No wonder.
Yan Jifan sighed, after all, it was a girl's family, and her temper was bigger, but she hoped that Ye Scarlet's ability was worthy of her temper, otherwise it would not be worth it for him to indulge like this.
"Okay, the official will go to Dali Temple for a trip, the contradiction between Song Yu and the official, if he has the ability, he will rush to the official and do something to a girl's house, it's really embarrassing!"
Ye Scarlet left the Yan Mansion and returned to Jimin Hall, and poured half a pot of tea into it, only then did he feel less angry in his heart.
It's just that she still has no clue how to investigate the case of the eldest princess's mansion.
I don't know what kind of wind Yan Jifan is pumping.
Since Yan Jifan had seriously adjusted the guards in the Eldest Princess's Mansion, he must know more about the guards in the Eldest Princess's Mansion than she did.
If Yan Jifan was willing to tell her, then she wouldn't be like a headless fly.
The point is not to startle the snake......
Eh, not necessarily, since you don't have a clue, it's better to just startle the snake, and then lure the snake out of the hole!
"Let's go to the Eldest Princess's Mansion!" She walked out in a hurry.
Please Ying and hairpin red looked at each other, and for a while they couldn't understand what she was going to do.
One moment it was angry like a flatulent pufferfish, but this moment it is like a lit cannonball.
The two had no choice but to follow towards the eldest princess's mansion.
When she came to the eldest princess's mansion, Ye Scarlet asked for a secret conversation with the eldest princess.
Half an hour later, Ye Scarlet walked out of the eldest princess's house and asked the housekeeper to gather all the people in the house.
When the others came, she raised her voice and said: "I have already told the eldest princess about the clues I found, I am very sure that the assassin last night was the inner ghost in the mansion, and I have asked people to go to Dali Temple to transfer people, and no one can leave the mansion until the inner ghost is caught, and the items in the mansion must be checked in and out." I hope that everyone will cooperate and find out the thief as soon as possible, and everyone will be relieved as soon as possible. ”
After everyone looked at each other, they saw that there was no movement in the eldest princess's house, and they understood that the eldest princess also agreed to this decision.
In Dali Temple, Yan Jifan just dislocated Song Yu's right hand under the pretext of being careless, and Cangshu came to report: "My lord, Miss Ye said that she wanted Dali Temple to transfer people to guard the eldest princess's mansion." ”
Yan Jifan's eyebrows were raised, and a smile overflowed on his lips: "She really didn't disappoint the official, she can transfer as many people as she wants." ”
A good trick to startle the snake is much more efficient than secretly checking.
Cangshu bowed his head, turned around and was about to go to order someone, when he was suddenly stopped by Yan Jifan: "You are secretly watching in the eldest princess's mansion tonight, and the official is afraid that the murderer will not be able to hold his breath." ”
Atractylodes should be down.
By the time Song Yu found someone to connect his arm, Cangzhu had already ordered a good person to come out of Dali Temple.
In the eldest princess's mansion, Ye Scarlet personally counted the number of people in the mansion under the leadership of the housekeeper and the maid beside the eldest princess, and when the people from Dali Temple came, he personally stared at the people who were arranged at each entrance and exit.
After such a toss, she didn't even catch up with dinner, so she casually went to the kitchen to find two steamed buns and pad them.
Cangshu also found an opportunity and said, "Miss Ye, the adults know that you were bullied by Song Yu in the Eldest Princess's Mansion during the day, and the adults have already unloaded Song Yu's arm to give you anger, so don't be angry anymore." The adult didn't care about the affairs of the eldest princess's mansion, he had a hard time. ”
Ye Crimson blinked.
Give her a breath, where is this?
She was angry not because of Song Yu, but because she felt that Yan Jifan knew the situation but didn't tell her.
Besides, even if she is angry, she will not delay her business, and she doesn't need Yan Jifan to help her get angry.
"Let's do the matter at hand first, if you can't catch the real murderer, your family will be in trouble." She said lightly.
The night was getting deeper, and Ye Scarlet planned to dry it for one night first, and then implement the plan the next day.
However, in the middle of the night, the sound of fighting sounded outside.
Ye Scarlet was woken up by the sound, and saw Hairpin Hong pulling out her sword and guarding her bedside.
"What's going on?" She asked.
"There are assassins who want to harm the girl, don't be afraid, girl, there are atractylodes outside, and the assassins can't hurt you." Hairpin said.
Hearing this, she was a little relieved.
It seems that her arrangement really made the people behind her anxious, otherwise she wouldn't have come to the door in the middle of the night.
"Tell Cangshu that it's best to keep a mouth alive."
Hairpin Hong nodded, and walked out with a sword.
After a while, Hairpin Hong walked in with a anxious face: "Girl, that person committed suicide by taking poison!" ”
He committed suicide by poisoning again.
Ye Scarlet didn't think much about it, and ran out.
Cangshu looked annoyed: "I'm sorry, I'm still a step too late, and I didn't have time to stop it." ”
Ye Scarlet didn't speak, he stepped forward to check if the assassin was still saved, and the person who didn't want to lie on the ground suddenly opened his eyes, and a cold light flashed.
Ye Crimson was startled, and at the same time dodged back as fast as he could.
Cangzhu and the others also changed their faces, and stepped forward to save Ye Crimson.
However, the incident happened suddenly, and everyone was still a step late with all their might, watching the cold light stab straight towards Ye Crimson's neck.
