The wooden kite asked, "What is the reason!" ”

"The hours are different!" Li Huaiyun pointed to the file and explained, "The Criminal Department and Dali Temple are investigating at different times! ”

He raised his head and looked at the wooden kite, "Do you remember what time you saw the princess in the palace?" ”

The wooden kite carefully recalled for a moment, "At that time, the big sun should have been at noon. ”

"Did you notice anything unusual at the time? For example, what to smell! ”

Wood Kite frowned, "You know, I was only in my teens at that time, and I wouldn't have paid attention to these situations at all!" ”

Li Huaiyun slapped the table, "That's right, so this situation is easy to explain!" ”

"How do you explain it?"

"Did you say that you met the emperor on the way and heard him say that the princess is dead!"

The wooden kite nodded, "Yes! ”

"You were angry at the emperor's words, and when you returned to the palace, you saw the princess standing in the pavilion in the middle of the lake, and then went to play with the others! When I returned to the dormitory again, I saw that the princess had been fished out of the lake! ”

Li Huaiyun's gaze fell on the wooden kite, "You still don't understand the problem here!" ”

Hearing his analysis, the wooden kite pondered for a moment, and suddenly realized, "Time is different! The faint gentleman immediately said that my mother was dead, why did I not fish out my mother's body from the lake until I went back! ”

Li Huaiyun continued, "Yes, if what you say is the truth, then what the emperor said and saw is false!" ”

And the body of the mother was indeed recovered from the lake, so, the wooden kite said, "So what I saw is fake!" I never went back to the dormitory! Why is that? ”

Wood Kite's expression was a little broken, she didn't know what happened to her at that time, why she had such a hallucination.

Li Huaiyun pointed at her, "It's likely that you smelled a certain smell and hallucinated!" ”

The kite asked, "You mean the smell?" ”

"Yes,"

"The people of Dali Temple also smell this, why are they...

"Maybe this smell only works for you."

"Only for us?"

"Yes, if my guess is correct, you and the princess smelled this smell at different times, so the princess unconsciously fell into the lake after that, and after you left the dormitory, you fell into a hallucination, thinking that you went to play with someone, and returned to the dormitory, and saw the figure in the pavilion in the middle of the lake, in fact, you have been asleep, and when you woke up, the princess was being fished out of the lake."

"In other words, the palace maid or eunuch who took you out is one of the accomplices! This also explains why you heard the emperor say that the princess was dead, and you returned to the dormitory, and happened to see the princess in the Huxin Pavilion. ”

The wooden kite lowered her head, "Actually, after I left the dormitory, I fell asleep and was placed somewhere, until I woke up and returned to the dormitory, and I saw that my mother was being fished out of the lake, thinking that everything before was true!" ”

"What's in the trunk isn't it..."

Li Huaiyun nodded, "Yes, that corpse should be a palace maid who went out, was killed by an accomplice, and then put it in the trunk, and then made up herself to look like the palace maid." ”

Mu Kite looked at Li Huaiyun with grateful eyes, if he was there at that time, he would be able to catch the murderer, and he would not let his mother die without turning a blind eye.

Li Huaiyun continued, "Looking at it now, regarding the investigation of this case, the Criminal Department and Dali Temple are a little strange! ”

"How?"

"In fact, as long as the two departments cooperate with each other, they should be able to find the problems in this, but they didn't do this, one simply started the investigation from the princess, and the other looked for you, a teenager, but they didn't get the right conclusion."

"It's like two opponents who don't convince each other."

"At the moment, the case is speculated to be more or less like this, but there is another very important aspect, which is not considered."

The wooden kite asked, "In what way?" ”

Li Huaiyun put his hands behind his back, and then paced back and forth in front of the desk.

The wooden kite said loudly, "Oh, can you stop going back and forth, what the hell?" ”

"Wasn't I thinking?"

"It gives me a headache."

Li Huaiyun stood still and clapped his hands vigorously, "It's the motive!" Any case needs a motive! ”

"Motivation?"

"For example, it is a competition for favor, or a feeling of hatred because of something, so that we have a general direction to track down the murderer."

Wood Kite felt that his words made sense, "That's true. ”

"Let's take a look at the unreasonable part of this case, you left the palace, and the princess was walking in the lake pavilion, but accidentally fell into the lake, causing drowning!

"At this time, why are there no palace maids and eunuchs beside the princess, it stands to reason that a person of this status, even if he goes to the thatched house, someone must follow!"

The wooden kite glared at him with disgust, "Your analogy is really disgusting! ”

"It's a little vulgar! It's easy to understand though! You know why? ”

The kite shook her head gently.

"One possibility is that someone took the palace maid and the eunuch away, and another possibility is that the princess herself took those people, maybe to meet someone."

"What do you mean! I also think that my mother kissed her... ”

Li Huaiyun waved his hand, "I didn't mean that, I just said that she met with someone, maybe there was something important." ”

The wooden kite could only reluctantly accept this speculation, frowning, "What you said is that there is such a possibility." ”

"On the other hand, the smell comes from the locust tree, and if it doesn't work for anyone else, then you and the princess, obviously, you're most likely another target, but then you left the palace and were protected."

"Only those palace maids who know a lot about your and the princess's life can do it, this is also a direction for us to investigate, if the identity of the corpse can be checked, it will be easier."

The wooden kite pondered for a moment and thought for a long time, "That's not right! After my mother drowned, the faint king punished the palace maids and eunuchs in the entire dormitory, and beheaded them all! ”

"Having said that, if you think about it carefully, are there really people who have counted them one by one?" Li Huaiyun said, "It seems that the emperor still has a lot of feelings for the princess." ”

"What a fart feeling!" Mu Kite said disdainfully, "If the faint gentleman is a little more careful, my mother will not have an accident at all, but she is just a hypocritical villain!" ”

Yes! This woman also hates the emperor too much!

"Mu Kite, this case has nothing to do with the emperor!"

Mu Kite said in an angry tone, "Why hasn't this case been investigated at this time, it's this faint gentleman who doesn't want to investigate!" Otherwise, how could there be no result! ”

She pointed at Li Huaiyun, "After you came, there has been a new development in the case, are those people in Dali Temple and the Criminal Department worse than you?" ”

"If that's the case, then it's better for you to be the secretary of the Dali Temple and the secretary of the Criminal Department."

"Calm down!" Li Huaiyun reached out and grabbed her arm, "Wooden kite!" Calm down! Don't be controlled by that bad mood! Since I am asked to investigate the case, I have to accept any result! Instead of going your own way here! ”

Hongyun shook off his arm, "Don't worry about it, I'm very calm!" ”

This woman is now completely blinded by hatred! Li Huaiyun said to Hongyun, "You calm down first!" ”

He came to Narcissus's side, a woman with a graceful body, put the mountain peak against his arm, and whispered, "Childe! Her attitude is too annoying! ”

Li Huaiyun said angrily, "Don't worry about other people's affairs, and continue to turn over the file for me." ”

"Ahh Just do nothing! ”

"What do you want to do when someone is there? Don't play with me so perverted," Li Huaiyun looked at Narcissus, "Before I ambushed you, I was still a poor, reserved widow, how could I release my nature after receiving the scroll!" ”

"Oops! I hate it! Childe, what you said! ”

"Hurry up and keep turning it for me!" Li Huaiyun broke free from her entanglement, "Find the files that record the palace maids and eunuchs who were beheaded in Qihua Palace due to the death of the princess." ”

"Hmm!"

Li Huai turned his head and asked, "The palace maids and eunuchs in Qihua Palace have been killed?" ”

The wooden kite stood there and nodded slightly.

Li Huaiyun sighed, "These people are really pitiful, they all know that if they don't take care of the princess, they will likely be punished heavily, but there is still no way, if they don't listen to the princess, they will also end well." ”

Narcissus also lost a smile on his face, "Childe is right, life is like this!" After digging through some files, she found the palace maids and eunuchs who had been beheaded.

"Childe, this is it!"

Li Huaiyun took the dossier handed by Narcissus, "Well done!" There is a reward for going back. ”

"Really!" Narcissus smiled and stood beside Li Huaiyun.

Li Huaiyun frowned and flipped through the file, "Mu Kite, do you know how many people there are in Qihua Palace?" ”

"How do I know that!"

"Seventeen in all!" Li Huaiyun looked at the records in the dossier, "But there are fifteen people who asked and beheaded, and one of them is Xiaozhi who left the palace before!" The other person was recorded as dying of the disease in the prison. ”

Wood Kite frowned, "As you expected, these two are accomplices?" ”

"The female corpse in the trunk is most likely a small branch, and this one who died of disease should still be alive and replaced with another identity,"

"Could it be this eunuch who buries the talisman paper in the soil of the potted plant, and then burns incense under the bonsai and the trunk outside?"

Li Huaiyun nodded, "There is a high probability that this is the case!" I guess this rune paper should just hope that the princess is already on the road and don't come to him! ”

"There is also a possibility that the person who is afraid of the dead will ask for his life, so with this rune paper, he hopes to clear the anger in this dormitory, hoping that he will be asked for his life!"

Wooden Kite patted the table, "Then how did he know about the corpse inside the trunk!" ”

"Probably the assailant told him!"

"How do you check that? The man is still in the palace and should be easy to find. ”

Li Huaiyun didn't think much of this, he spread his hands, "No! It's really a bit troublesome to find him, since it can make him change his face and live in the palace again, then there must be someone behind him. ”

Mu Kite thought for a while, "Then we'll wait for him to come to Qihua Palace again!" ”

"It's not that simple! We didn't think about it so much before, let Uncle Long dispose of the corpse, I'm afraid that this news will spread all over the palace, and that person should not appear again. ”

The wooden kite looked lost, "Is there really no way to let that accomplice show up?" ”

Li Huaiyun shook his head, "There's no way!" We've already been scared, and the best way is to go to the household department to find information. ”

At this moment, there was a knock on the door outside the house, and Li Huaiyun put down the file in his hand, with a lot of thoughts in his heart.
