Chapter 33: Solving the Mystery 1
"Jia Shixiang asked this bamboo pipe to be changed every day before his death, although the people in the house did not completely do what he asked, but they would also change it every two or three days, so it became much easier to poison, and anyone could become a murderer. For example, the person who cuts the bamboo, the person who sends the bamboo, and the person who places the bamboo joint, no matter which link has the opportunity to be poisoned. However, there is one point that cannot be ignored. ”
Mo Shuoyue pointed to the incisions of the bamboo knot and said, "I have compared these incisions one by one, and they are all caused by sharp swords. It can be explained that the person who cuts the bamboo should be a specific and fixed person. But a swordsman with strong swordsmanship, who does not protect his master well, is assigned to cut bamboo, I think, no master will be so overkill. ”
Li Yunmin's gaze fell between the bamboo pipes, and when he saw the new green, his eyes narrowed as if he was nothing, pondered for a moment, and nodded slowly, "If you know the sword, if you are a person from Jiafu, if your guess is right, the murderer can basically be locked." ”
"Yes, but the most critical thing at the moment is to find the small bamboo pipe that was poisoned, it's just ......."
Before Mo Shuoyue's words fell, she saw Qin Ji walking quickly through the corridor and walking towards this side. was so anxious, thinking that it was an urgent matter to report, I couldn't help but accept the conversation.
"Lord, just now Dali Temple came to report, a maid of the Jia family jumped from Ru Ya Pavilion and died on the spot, after verification, it is the maid next to Jia Lin's side, Green Forest."
When the two heard the news, they looked at each other, and both sides saw a little understanding from each other's eyes, Mo Shuoyue stood up and prepared to go out and go to Jiafu.
"Bring this on." Li Yunmin used a tea clip to pick up the new green bamboo pipe, "You let Jiang Zhen check it again." ”
Mo Shuoyue looked at his face, her eyes were slightly puzzled, and after carefully looking at the dark red dots exposed on the inside of the incision, she suddenly realized, took out the handkerchief and wrapped the bamboo pipe again, and admired from the bottom of her heart:
"The prince is as careful as a hair, and there should be no problem in solving this case today."
"Don't talk too much."
Mo Shuoyue raised her eyebrows and smiled, "We'll see." ”
It seemed to be the first time to see her so playful, Li Yunmin was slightly stunned for a moment, and couldn't help laughing, "Then I'll wait and see." ”
"Okay."
Mo Shuoyue put away the bamboo pipe through the handkerchief, and Shi Shiran came out of Bojingxuan.
When she arrived at Jiafu, she heard that Jiang Zhen had already arrived for a long time, and there were a few catchers wearing the costumes of the officials of Jingzhao Mansion who came with her.
Mo Shuoyue sighed in her heart that although Li Yunmin intervened in the case, she had always adhered to her consistent style of behavior, providing help privately, but also delegating power and not interfering.
Do practical things, don't grab credit. Mo Shuoyue came to a conclusion in her heart, and couldn't help but admire his character even more.
Jia Fuli was thoughtful, and the steward personally led Mo Shuoyue to Ru Ya Ge.
The mountain stream is murmuring, the birds are chirping, and the accord bathed in the sun is simple and natural, and there is no wild interest.
Surrounded by greenery, the jungle swayed in the wind, and the bright sunlight broke through the shade of the trees and fell on a withered and barren land.
A few soap-clad boys swung their hoes and turned over the soil, as if they were going to plant something again.
Mo Shuoyue walked closer, pointed over there, and asked, "Steward Jia, what was originally planted there?" ”
"It's a peony, and it's usually taken care of by Mrs. herself, and it's about to bloom. Hey, as soon as the old man left, Mrs. was heartbroken, and she didn't have the energy to take care of them anymore, and the people at the bottom were clumsy, and within two days, they were all withered, and the green forest was afraid that the lady would see it sad, and ordered them to replant, who knew that the green forest was ...... Hey......"
Steward Jia's eyes were slightly red, and he swallowed the rest of the words back.
In the end, it is the person who watched Jia Shixiang grow up, and it is inevitable that he will be sad.
"Please mourn." Mo Shuoyue was relieved in a warm voice, was silent, and said: "Peony is not a squeamish flower seed, how can it all wither after two days?" ”
Steward Jia sighed and shook his head, "It's also a shame to say, the old slave also thinks it's strange, Madame usually sprinkles water directly from the window of the tearoom, and they are all alive and well, but we, the subordinates, carefully watered the past one by one, but none of them were saved." ”
"All things have different habits, maybe they are used to Mrs. Jia's way of taking care of them." Mo Shuoyue looked at the window from the bottom up for a while, and comforted casually.
Steward Jia echoed, "We all think the same way. ”
They walked all the way, politely all the way, and when they entered Ru Accord, Jiang Zhen was taking off his wide robe. When he saw Mo Shuoyue, he greeted happily: "Shuoyue, you are here too!" ”
After coming to Kyoto, everyone either called her "Miss Mo" or "Little Mo", and Li Yunmin called her with her first name and surname, but no one called her without a surname like this. Mo Shuoyue was a little unaccustomed, but she also felt the kindness she hadn't felt for a long time. He smiled at her and nodded.
She saw that the corpse was covered with a white cloth and was about to lift it, but Jiang Zhen raised her hand to stop it and said, "Don't look at it, you fell from the building and died, and the death was a bit tragic." If you have any questions, just ask me. ”
Mo Shuoyue thought for a moment and nodded in agreement. In the autopsy, Jiang Zhenzhen is indeed more proficient and meticulous than her. He asked: "Is it true that Green Forest fell to his death?" ”
"The results of the examination so far are indeed so, there are no scars or signs of struggle on her body, and there is no sign of poisoning, and when she died, the slaves and maids who guarded the pavilion and sprinkled the sweep happened to see that she had indeed jumped off herself. According to what they said, Lu Lin sat alone in the tea room in the pavilion all night, and everyone only thought that she missed Master Jia too much, and then left after sitting for a while. Moreover, when Lu Lin died, he also left a blood book, admitting that he was the murderer of Jia Shixiang, but when I came, the blood book had already been taken away by the people of Jingzhao Mansion, saying that it was to identify the handwriting. ”
Although Jiang Zhenyuan often feels as if he can't understand people's words, as long as the things he asks are about corpses, he understands them surprisingly well, and there are no obstacles at all, which can really make people amazed.
"Why do people think that she misses Jia Shixiang too much?"
admits that she is the murderer and takes all the charges, which Mo Shuoyue had already guessed when she heard the news of her death. It's just that......
Jiang Yuyu saw Mo Shuoyue's puzzled face, and immediately began to explain in detail, the look of that good thing was quite a bit of the pride of the woman in the market when she learned about the gossip that others didn't know.
"As soon as I saw you like this, I knew that you had never heard of this, and it took me a lot of effort to inquire about it! You don't know yet, this green forest is actually Jia Shixiang's person, but Jia Shixiang is afraid of guilt, and he loves his new wife very much, for fear that his wife will be sad and jealous, so he has been so sneaky and did not accept her publicly. ”
