Chapter 61 Night Reading Dossier

In the past few days, the atmosphere in the palace of the Dayin Dynasty has been very strange, on the surface it is calm, but secretly a thorough investigation has begun. The assassination of the emperor was such a big deal. The whereabouts of everyone in the palace in the recent period have been secretly collected by the palace guards using various means that do not see the light. Soon a large box full of case files was carried to the table of Liu Cheng, the head of the Inner Guard Mansion, Liu Cheng saw that there were so many case files that needed to be checked, and he frowned helplessly, the emperor was assassinated, and he was the first person responsible, so it is now imperative to quickly investigate the case and avoid the recurrence of the assassination. When Liu Cheng was about to pick up the case file in the box to check, a flash of inspiration flashed in his mind, he remembered a person, the last time the county lord's mansion came to investigate the case, wherever he went, the book was taken with him, and he always held the book in his hand to read it when he was free. Wouldn't it be better if so many files were made for the horses to state and come to help, first, the case investigated by the two is very related. Second, Liu Cheng can feel that he is very fond of studying things in words.

Liu Cheng still put the file in his hand in the box, covered the box, and ordered,

"Go to the mansion of the county lord of Wan'er and pass on the statement to come over with the master of the horse, I have something important to discuss. ”

After a while, the figure of Shu Tong appeared in front of Liu Cheng.

"I don't know what is the important matter for Lord Liu to ask me to come, is there a bit of an eyebrow in the case?"

"This time, I asked Chen Xianggong to come because I had something to ask for. This box contains the whereabouts records of the palace people I just collected today in the last few days, because there are too many, I want to ask Chen Xianggong to help me deal with it. ”

"Well, yes, I'm a little slow to check it myself, can you let my wife come along?" asked the statement, rubbing his head.

"Of course you can, but you can't ask for it. Liu Cheng was very happy when he heard that Shutong had agreed to his request, and hurriedly agreed to Shutong's request. After a while, Tang Wan'er also came to the Inner Guard Mansion. All three of them looked at the file in silence. In this way, about three hours passed, and the case file in the box had been read by the three of them, and they still had no clue, and the night was already very late, just when Liu Cheng planned to let the two go back to rest and come back to investigate tomorrow. Statement Tong stood up sharply.

"There is something wrong with this palace maid named Xiao'e in Yuqing Palace. ”

The three of them hurriedly took the file in their hands and examined it carefully.

"There's no problem, it's just that she recently followed the comprador cherry in the palace to the front of the palace to choose a Su Jin according to Concubine Li's instructions, and someone followed her throughout the whole process. There can be no doubts. ”

"There is a problem with the place where she went, the Red Embroidery Workshop is the base camp of the Assassins, and all of us are now keeping an eye on the Red Embroidery Workshop, this palace maid actually went to the Red Embroidery Workshop the day before His Majesty's assassination. Even if someone watched the whole thing, couldn't she use a stealthy method to deliver the message?"

Liu Cheng, the head of the internal guard, listened to the statement and thought about it quietly. He jerked to his feet and screamed

"No, don't let the assassins kill you, I'm going to protect her right away. Come, come with me and fetch someone. ”

Liu Cheng hurried towards the direction of Yuqing Palace, he wanted to take down this Xiao'e before the enemy killed people, otherwise the clue would be broken.

Shu Tong just wanted to stand up and go to help, Tang Wan'er grabbed his sleeve, and then handed over a case,

"Actually, I have long found out that the cat in the case file is tired, this manager Liu is not careful enough, I am afraid that he will leak the news, I didn't say it just now, since he is gone now. Xiang Gong looks at the records recorded in this case, and I believe that with your wisdom, you should be able to see the problem. ”

The county lord Tang Wan'er looked at the statement and said quietly and calmly

The statement took the file handed over by his wife Tang Wan'er, and saw that the file was actually recorded by Concubine Li. The above records are very detailed, including what time Li Guifei got up every day for the past seven days, what time she ate, and what time she went to the toilet, all of which were recorded in the book, regardless of size. One of them caught the attention of Shu Tong, Concubine Li would go to the back garden of Qingning Palace every day at noon. In fact, there is nothing doubtful about this record, but one thing worth noting is that Concubine Li, who has never been to Qingning Palace before, has been going every day for the last four days, and now that the emperor has been assassinated, she is still in the mood to go to Qingning Palace to enjoy the flowers, and the most important point is that Qingning Palace is a cold palace, and there were many concubines who fell out of favor in it. Because it is a cold palace, no one cares about it. It is also because Tang Wan'er is related to a concubine in Qingning Palace, so the two know so much about this Qingning Palace. And since two years ago, there have been rumors of haunting in Qingning Palace. Why did this rightfully favored concubine go back to the cold palace to enjoy the flowers? Why did she still go to enjoy the flowers every noon now that His Majesty the Emperor had been assassinated? Wasn't she afraid that His Majesty the Emperor would be angry? And the actions of Xiao'e, the palace maid in her palace, all the answers seemed to have been floating on the surface. But in his heart, he always felt that all this was too superficial and too simple. Is it really the same as the analysis of the husband and wife?

"Now that Mr. Liu has just passed, it is estimated that Xiao'e has been killed" Tang Wan'er looked at her husband who was thinking about things, and whispered to herself.

"It's probably not as simple as we think, and I always feel that there is a bigger conspiracy behind these assassinations," he said.

"Perhaps, Manager Liu should come back disappointed in a while. Tang Wan'er took the case file handed over by the statement and carefully put it into her pocket.

After a while, Liu Cheng came back dejectedly, and when he saw that the same couple was still reading the case file, he hurriedly complained,

"These cunning assassins, hmph, I'm going to catch them. I was still a step late, and by the time I arrived with my brothers, Miss Xiao'e had already died in her boudoir. The door to her boudoir was locked from the inside, and there was no sign of it being opened by humans, but how did she get killed by the Assassin? ”

Liu Cheng complained while picking up the teacup on the table and taking a big sip of tea.

"If you were out and I secretly put poison in your cup, now you're dead. He said.

"Yes, Chen Xianggong is right, why didn't I think of it. I knew I was going to look in that direction. Liu Cheng immediately went out to investigate the case in a hurry, and it is estimated that he will not sleep tonight.

Liu Cheng left, and after a while, Shu Tong and Tang Wan'er cleaned up and went back to their mansion to rest.
