"Maid? Did she see her brother-in-law come in?"

"No, according to what she said, she just heard the sound of something breaking in the locked room when she was cleaning the yard. She has long been accustomed to the sound in this room from time to time, and the son-in-law She didn't take this matter to heart at all. If what she said was true, then what she heard eight. Nine. No. Leaving. Ten was the sound of jars shattering on the ground during the murder ."

"Uncle has confirmed that the jar is the murder weapon? Is there any solid evidence?"

Qin Shuo shook his head, "It's just a speculation. Wu Zuo didn't have the opportunity to do an autopsy, so he's not sure about the real cause of death. But judging from what they described when the body was found, Prince Ding fell down beside the table with a bloody head." , the fragments scattered all over the place, the murder weapon must be the jar."

"Beside the desk? Isn't it in the center of this circular sacrificial array?"

"It shouldn't be." Qin Shuo lowered his head and thought for a while, and then he understood what He Kunjin was referring to, "It is probably because the table case blocked it, and it was inconvenient to move the corpse, so the picture was drawn outside ?"

"Really? Why is uncle so sure that this picture was painted after the murder?" A fat cat poked its head at the door. He Kunjin saw it, raised his eyebrows, and stood guard The servant of the Princess Mansion on the side stepped forward and hurriedly took her away.

"If the pattern is painted first, and no matter why the pattern is not completed, the success rate itself will be greatly reduced, and the possibility is smaller than that of the later painting, because it is impossible for Ding Consort to see such a pattern later. If you don’t be more vigilant in the end. If the murderer really took the pattern he drew first, he might not only fail, but also risk his own life.”

"Didn't it mean that Prince Ding is weak and sick and hasn't practiced martial arts?"

"However, as His Highness saw, not only was there no sign of a fight in the room, there was not even half a bloody footprint. No matter how weak the son-in-law is, he should still be able to swing his fist twice and tear his clothes twice."

"...Well," walked out of the room, took a deep breath of fresh air, and looked around the yard again, looking for possible omissions.

A cloud of snow fell from the tree branch, scaring the cat in the servant's arms to bark its teeth and claws for a long time.

"Uncle thinks it must be homicide?"

"If he didn't kill him, then who painted this pattern?"

"If he killed him, how did the murderer get out and then bolt the door from the inside?" He reached out and touched the cut-off latch, imitating various methods of latching the door from the outside in his mind.For a long time, he shook his head in vain.She cast a questioning look at Wei Kang who was silent at the side.

"No, even I can't do this kind of door latch." Wei Kang was a little disappointed.

"This is the mystery of this case. We have also tried various methods, but none of them succeeded. We have also checked all the people in the mansion who may have committed the crime one by one. Including Her Royal Highness, none of them have the time and time to commit the crime. Opportunity. At present, the only two suspicions fall on the maid who cleaned the courtyard and the missing personal maid. The maid has already been imprisoned, and she has not been recruited for three days. People will start to be punished."

"We can only hope that the missing person can be found in time, so that this little girl who doesn't look like a murderer can suffer less." Qin Shuo shook his head tiredly.

"If you can't find the murderer, you will be beaten into a trick. Let's find a scapegoat first?"

"After all, this case happened in the Princess Mansion. There are many things that we can't do if we want to search. The only thing we can take over is this yard. The messy mystery, the few clues and conditions, the case is really serious. It is a stalemate. But the urgency of the case, His Majesty's concerns, His Majesty understands better than I do. In order to stabilize General Ding, and even the situation in the court, we can only find a murderer first. Our small Dali Temple can't afford the important affairs of the country."

Rubbing the center of his brows, he murmured, "This happened just when the Qi State Mission was visiting. General Ding handed over his military power and lost his only son. He was still killed in the bloody plot of the Yi Sect." If it's me, I'll also think wildly, and I can't help but make some troubles."

"I will go to General Ding and tell you that my father has given me fifteen days, and I hope that uncle can first restrain his subordinates within these fifteen days." Looking at the scene in the house again, he turned his head To Wei Kang, "Do you have time to pick up those pieces and put them together?"

"...Yes." Wei Kang looked at the rather disgusting crime scene and pursed his lips.

"Today can only be like this for the time being. I wonder if uncle can send me a copy of the file of this case? If there is any progress in this case in the future, I hope uncle will inform you in time."

"Your Highness, don't worry."

The author has something to say:

I really want to draw a schematic diagram of the crime scene, but my drawing skills are really bad... forget it.

Chapter 22 Flame Spirit

It was dark at night, but the candles in the study of Prince Ji's Mansion were still on.A gust of cold wind hit, Liu Yanxue subconsciously shrunk her neck and gathered the collar of her coat.She looked at the study not far away with some worry, and wanted to go in and have a look, but somehow her footsteps were fixed on the road leading to the study.

Ning Yuan who came from the other side saw Liu Yanxue who was hesitating, she raised her eyebrows, then looked at the hot soup in her hand, a thought flashed in her mind, and she walked quickly to Liu Yanxue's side.

"Here, the concubine, you should deliver this medicine by yourself. The slaves can't afford it. It is the most difficult thing in the world to serve the prince Ji to drink the medicine." He handed the medicine bowl in front of Liu Yanxue, "playing Changing ways to give her kindness and power, just to avoid taking medicine. Those who don’t know may think that the owner of the valley prescribes poison for her.”

"...Hmm." Looking at the reason for going to the study, Liu Yanxue unexpectedly lost the courage to face it again.

"Hurry up, my aunt. The medicine will be cold later, I have to go and make Wei An boil it again." Directly and rudely stuffed the medicine bowl into Liu Yanxue's hand.

Holding the medicine bowl in this hand, Liu Yanxue felt like she was holding a hot steamed bun; she couldn't hold it and wanted to throw it away, but she felt distressed after throwing it away;And the same is true of her heart for He Kunjin, she really wanted to hug him, but she was afraid of his reaction; she really wanted to understand him thoroughly, but she didn't dare to search for something some truth.

She knew that He Kunjin must be hiding something from her, but A Niang knew about it but couldn't tell it directly, so she had to keep hinting and warning.She really wanted to clear up this fog, but for some reason, there was always a voice in her heart that kept stopping it, as if if the mist separating the two of them cleared, the relationship between the two of them would be over, and even The current situation cannot be maintained.

Thinking wildly, his feet actually walked to the door of the study by himself.She hesitated in her heart whether she should knock on the door, but for some reason, her body pushed the door directly and walked in.

He Kunjin was sitting in front of the book desk a little tiredly, but the expression on her face was rare and soft with nostalgia and sweetness; she propped her chin with one hand, and rested her hand on the pile of scrolls that was one inch high, pointing Jian didn't know what he was holding.When she heard the door suddenly open, her body tensed, but after seeing the person who came, she resumed the initial lazy posture, but she didn't know where she was hiding the thing in her hand.

If it was someone else, they would definitely not notice this small detail, and they would definitely be confused by He Kunjin's fast hand speed, but it's a pity that Liu Yanxue is not someone else.Liu Yanxue not only saw, but also felt what He Kunjin was pinching in his hands, which was the first frost flower she had given to Chao Qing when she was young, the first frost flower she had made with her spiritual power.The reason why this thing that should have melted long ago can be maintained until now is all due to the support of Liu Yanxue's own spiritual power.Therefore, no matter how He Kunjin hid it, Liu Yanxue could always sense it, after all, it was her own spiritual power.
