Chapter 146: A Bloody Case Caused by a Pearled Hairpin
Later, I saw an oval-shaped and large bird's nest falling straight into the well!
When everyone was stunned, about a dozen cats sprang out from all sides and jumped into the well one after another!
Soon, a shrill cat meow came from the bottom of the well! Occasionally, there is the neighing of birds!
Moreover, the cries grew stronger and more intense!
Chen Zhuoxin's face changed slightly, he took a few steps back, and whispered a few words to Yin Hong.
Yin Hong hung his head and didn't leave, but he heard everyone exclaim!
Chen Zhuoxin and Yin Hong looked at the source of the exclamation, and a black and white flower cat jumped out of the bottom of the well, stood on the edge of the well, and looked at everyone vigilantly.
I saw that there seemed to be blood on the side of the cat's mouth, and there was a shining pearl hairpin in its mouth, and a larger pearl on the pearl hairpin was shining in the sun.
Even from a distance, this pearl hairpin in the cat's mouth is expensive.
Everyone was extremely surprised by the scene they saw in front of them, how could there be such a pearl hairpin at the bottom of the well?
So everyone looked at Guan Jingqiu and Ji Jun again, and when they went down the well, the hairpin fell?
Guan Jingqiu subconsciously touched her head, she could see that this pearl hairpin was not what she usually liked or worn, and the style was not what she wore today, but she was a little weak-hearted, and she still touched her headdress carefully.
The bead hairpin on her head did not fall off, and Guan Jingqiu was relieved.
And Ji Jun didn't move, she could see at a glance that this pearl hairpin was not hers, even if it was hers, she couldn't show half a minute of panic at this moment.
What's more, since the pearl hairpin has fallen into the well, it is the right to lose it. Can you still snatch it from a cat's mouth now?
That's a lot of price drops!
The actions of the two people after seeing the pearl hairpin fell into the eyes of everyone, and they immediately appeared.
I only felt that Guan Jingqiu immediately panicked, which was really out of style.
However, people are lucky, generous, unmoved, and have the courage of "Mount Tai collapses in front and does not change color".
Many people began to have a better impression of Ji Jun.
At this time, I only heard a noble girl whisper,
"This bead hairpin looks a little familiar, like the new style of Rong Bao Pavilion recently!"
There were bold ones in the crowd, and when they moved a few steps forward, they saw that they were indeed Rongbao Pavilion's recent new styles of bead hairpins.
Everyone was suddenly surprised, and then looked around at the people around them.
Some people just heard the movement and came to the well, but some people involuntarily touched the beads on their heads.
At this time, suddenly only one noble girl said,
"Miss Merlin, this hairpin looks a bit like the one on your head."
When everyone heard this, they all looked at Mei Lin, and sure enough, whether it was from the size, or the position of the gems on the pearl hairpin, as well as the color, and the style, they were indeed very similar.
The only difference is that Merlin's pearl hairpin is embedded with several emeralds the size of small fingernails.
And the beads in the cat's mouth are a few pearls.
Ji Jun narrowed his eyes, took a closer look at the bead hairpin in the cat's mouth, then looked at Mei Lin, and then swept around to other noble girls, and sure enough, he saw that the style of the bead hairpin on the heads of the other noble girls was obviously different from this.
This is understandable, as most of the ladies are reluctant to wear the same headdress.
Just like those girls in the previous life were reluctant to bump into their shirts, the nobles were willing to wear the same or similar hair accessories to each other unless they had a good relationship with each other to reflect intimacy.
But why is the pearl hairpin in the cat's mouth exactly the same as the one on Merlin's head?
Isn't that a hint of something?
Mei Lin was a little uncomfortable to be seen by everyone, but after all, she had seen a big scene now, and she was quite calm at the moment.
It's just that Meilin's facial expression stiffens significantly, showing her uneasiness and displeasure.
It was Yu Jue who was the first to be unhappy.
Yu Jue thought that after all, he and Meilin were both from the Hou Mansion of Huai'an. Looking at Mei Lin like this, there was a lot of doubt in her eyes, which was naturally equivalent to despising the Huai'an Hou Mansion.
What's more, when Yu Jue saw this pearl hairpin, he remembered that he also had one!
Yu Jue remembered that it was after the fourth round of selection and screening of the princess and concubine was over, and the female officials in the palace gave each of them one of these show girls.
She and Meilin each got one, and her pearl hairpin was a pearl's, but from a distance, her pearl seemed to be a little smaller than this one.
When she was dressing up for the wedding today, Aunt Yuan specially asked the little maid to go to the courtyards to inquire about what jewelry the others were wearing.
Aunt Yuan said that even the two sisters should not dress the same, they look stingy, and in case they are like the ladies of other houses, it is easy to be a foil for others.
Yu Jue also knew that he was running for the crown princess this time, just to be a foil for others.
She still has this bit of self-knowledge, not to mention anything else, in terms of appearance, she is not as good as several unsuccessful young ladies, not to mention talent, or family background.
Aunt Yuan mentioned this, and Yu Jue thought that several noble girls had also gotten this pearl hairpin that day. If you wear the same as what others wear, won't you make others unhappy?
Anyway, it's not that he doesn't have other jewelry, so Yu Jue didn't bring this bead hairpin.
At this moment, seeing everyone scanning, their attention was focused on Mei Lin's pearl hairpin, Yu Jue said,
"It's just a hairpin, what's the big deal? After we ran for the princess that day, many young ladies got the pearls of Rongbao Pavilion, which is like this, but the gems are different! ”
Yu Jue looks rare and strange, but in fact, she is a little complacent, after all, there are very few princesses who can enter the fifth round!
With this pearl hairpin alone, there is already the capital to brag about!
When everyone heard this, their expressions became even more strange.
At that time, many people also heard that after the fourth round, some noble ladies received pearl hairpins from Rongbao Pavilion as gifts from female officials in the palace.
Now that this pearl hairpin appears here, doesn't it seem even more weird?
Guan Jingqiu is doing everything possible at this moment not to let Chen Guogong and Ji Jun fill this dry well, so she will not let go of any opportunity to change the direction of the situation.
Guan Jingqiu pretended to be concerned,
"Oops! Maybe it was a thief who stole a young lady's hairpin, and then accidentally threw it into this well? Besides, maybe one of the young ladies accidentally fell into the well? ”
Everyone looked at Guan Jingqiu with strange eyes and speculated wildly, Guan Jingqiu had no time to take care of everyone, and still said to herself,
"Maybe the thief accidentally fell into the well after stealing the pearl hairpin? Grandpa Guo, can you please send someone down to see if there will be a thief or a young lady who has stumbled and fallen? It's a matter of human life, so it's better to be careful! Or any other piece of jewelry? After all, the loss of the girl's belongings is a matter of honor, please pay more attention to the grandfather of the country! ”
Having said this, Chen Guogong naturally couldn't insist on filling the well regardless of it, not to mention that he didn't want to fill it, and he had to dig it up after filling it.
Although he is not afraid of trouble, he is also not willing to toss like this.
Moreover, he didn't want to kill Guan Jingqiu's brother and brother at the bottom of the well, but he just took the opportunity to warn Guan Jingqiu not to play such a trick in the Guogong Mansion!
So Chen Zhuoxin signaled to Yin Hong beside him, Yin Hong sent the little guy to go down the rope to the bottom of the well to check, and when the little guy went down, he deliberately took a fire fold.
Soon the little guy at the bottom of the well let out a scream!
"Dead!"
Some of the people in Inoue could hear clearly, but some were incredulous.
Some people don't hear it very clearly, but they just think the sound is very harsh and poignant, and they are confused.
Ji Jun and Ji Yan were shocked when they heard it clearly!
Guan Jingqiu was a little confused......
Yin Hong's face sank, and he instructed another servant,
"You go down and have a look!"
The little guy also went down to the well after obeying the order, Ji Jun thought, the bottom of the well is quite spacious, and four or five people are not a problem.
And it is well ventilated, and there is no carbon monoxide poisoning.
Soon, the well rope shook.
Yin Hong looked at Chen Zhuoxin with a solemn face, and Chen Zhuoxin nodded slightly.
Yin Hong rushed down and shouted,
"All of you come up!"
Ji Jun thought, "You all come up", not "you come up", it should be to get the person below to come up!
It's just, that person, why did he die?
Soon, the little guy who went down the well for the first time climbed up, his face was pale, extremely ugly, his lips were still a little trembling, seeing Chen Guogong and Yin Hong, he was full of panic and wanted to open his mouth to say something, but Yin Hong glared at him fiercely, so he left the silence.
Then, with a low exclamation from the crowd, a disheveled man was dragged up!
But because this person came up upside down and was thrown to the ground heavily, without a sound, he should be the "dead man" in the mouth of the little guy.
And then the little guy who went down the second time came up from the bottom of the well.
Ji Jun was secretly puzzled, she did sprinkle medicine, but it was a comatose powder and would not be fatal.
You see, Guan Jingqiu quickly regained consciousness after coming into contact with the medicinal powder.
Could it be that he was in a coma too deep and was mistaken for a "dead man" by the little guy?
At this moment, I saw Yin Hong test his snort with his hand, then felt the person's pulse, and finally, put his hand on the carotid pulse of his neck.
Ji Jun secretly praised, good, good!
But he saw that Yin Hong shook his head at Chen Guogong and said coldly,
"Grandpa Guo, the man is dead."
"Huh?" The ladies on the lookers exclaimed.
Several ladies in the boudoir actually had weak legs and feet and sat on the ground! Even the timid maid didn't help her own lady up, but fell down with her!
What's more, I fainted directly!
For a while, it was really a reversal!
When Guan Jingqiu saw the clothes of the person on the ground, her heart beat faster, she gasped for breath, and her throat made a "gurgling" sound, and she couldn't say a word!
After a long time, she rushed to Ji Yun, shaking her arms and fingers, trembling in front of Ji Yun's eyes, not knowing whether she wanted to point to Ji Yun's face or body.
Guan Jingqiu worked hard, her eyes were about to split, and she could vaguely see that her eyes were full of bloodshots, as if she was trying her best to suppress the rage, she squeezed out a sentence from her throat,
"You, kill someone! I want your life! ”
