Dongdu Pavilion Case Record

Tang Wuyi has seen what it means to sweep away gracefully.At any rate, he also grew up in the military camp, and he was used to seeing how rough old men eat in a hurry, but this is the first time he has seen Wen Tao's dining style that is not losing speed but can still be dignified and elegant.He still has half a bowl left, and Wen Tao has already finished the soup and noodles, and he is tapping his finger on the table contentedly at the moment.

Tang Wuyi couldn't help laughing again.This little friend always made him happy from the first time I met him.

"Tang... Pavilion Master."

"Tang Yue. Just call me Tang Yue."

"Uh, Tang Yue, did you have any new clues later?"

Tang Wuyi rubbed his temples, shook his head and said, "There are many contradictions."

"About Xia Houhuan?"

"Exactly. I also focused on interrogating people who had more contact with Xia Houhuan, including everyone in Xiahou's family and some servants and servants. There are many contradictions in the Xiahouhuan they described."

"Why?"

"If Xia Houhuan is the murderer, and her motive for killing Su Ranran is love, then she must yearn for the young master Xiahou. However, although a few servants and servants have conclusively said that Xia Houhuan really yearns for the young master, they can't produce any evidence. It's just a private rumor. On the contrary, none of the members of the Xiahou family who are closer to Xiahouhuan have mentioned this. Miss Baizhi and Master Baiguo both mentioned that Xiahouhuan has a tough personality and is not fake in front of others. Although Mrs. Xiahou doesn't like Xiahou Huan, but only said that the owner of the villa once thought of marrying Xiahou Huan to Xiahou Baiying. She was quite contemptuous of Xiahouhuan in her words. If she believed that Xiahouhuan was yearning for Xiahou Baiying, she would definitely humiliate her .”

"It's really unusual for irrelevant outsiders to conclusively conclude things that are not mentioned by those close to you." Wen Tao thought about it, "If Xia Houhuan's yearning can be conclusively stated by servants and servants, then there is no The reason is that the members of Xiahou's family are indifferent to this. By the way, what did Xiahou Baiying say?"

Tang Wuyi shook his head: "He was in a trance and didn't say anything."

The two of them were at a loss, when suddenly a servant came to pass: "Master Tang, just now Liu'er was stealthily burning things, and was discovered by the master. She is currently interrogating in the front hall. Let Mr. Tang go over."

The two got up and rushed to the front hall.

I saw the Xiahou people in the front hall, Su Yaowang, and all the martial arts people have already gathered together. Seeing Tang Wuyi coming, Xiahou Zhuangzhu stood up and said: "Master Tang, just now I found this maid secretly burning things in the back garden, hurry up and take her away." Bring it over for trial."

I saw Liu'er fell to the ground with a haggard face, sobbing, holding something tightly in her hands.

Tang Wuyi stared at Liu'er fiercely and said, "Bring it here."

Liu'er just shook her head, the servant next to her had already gone up and snatched the thing from her hand.The thing is thin and thin, and most of it has been burned, and it is black and yellow, and the original color cannot be seen clearly.

"What is it?" Tang Wuyi asked sharply, the lines all over his face at this moment were like a knife carving.

Wen Tao motioned to Tang Wuyi and said, "Let me take a look." He put the thing in his hand, and it felt like it was a flower. He was proficient in medicinal herbs, so he sniffed it under his nose and said, "It's a magnolia petal." He looked at it again After a moment of color, he said, "Purple Magnolia."

Liu'er seemed to have been shocked by an electric shock suddenly, and her whole body began to tremble.

Tang Wuyi stared at Liu'er and said, "Liu'er, don't hide it anymore. Why did you burn this purple magnolia? Whose is it?"

Before Liu'er could answer, Wen Tao had already said, "It belongs to Xia Houhuan. She has always had a purple magnolia tree on her hair. There is only one purple magnolia tree in Guiyun Villa, and it is in the small courtyard where Xia Houhuan lives."

Hearing this, Liu'er seemed to be unable to hold on any longer, and her crying became louder and louder.

Tang Wuyi had already figured it out and said: "Let me take a guess. You picked up this magnolia petal in a place, which made you confirm a fact about the murder case."

"Damn it, servant girl!" Liu'er burst into tears suddenly, "This servant girl found this in Miss Su's room on the day she died! The servant girl recognized it as Miss Huan's when she picked it up. Ri has never been to Miss Su's room, and she is the only one in the village with a purple magnolia hairpin. That's why the slaves knew at the time that it was Miss Huan who made it..."

"Then why didn't you report it?" Tang Wuyi said.

"Miss Huan has a great kindness to the servant girl. The servant girl was originally only a third-class maidservant. It was Miss Huan who took a fancy to the servant girl and promoted the servant girl to be a first-class maidservant. She also specially allocated her to Miss Su as her personal maid. Slave servant girl, the servant girl can't report on Miss Huan. !Ohh Ohh ohh……"

"Then why did you burn the petals today?" Tang Wuyi asked sharply.

"My servant took the petals, and I have been anxious for the past few days. I heard today that everyone's room will be searched to see if there is any evidence related to the murder. The servant panicked. If they are found, the servant will It's hard to tell, but I don't want to report on Miss Huan, slave, slave, slave..." Liu'er burst into tears, bursting out with thousands of grievances.

Originally, after Xia Houhuan's death, everyone in the village already suspected that Xia Houhuan committed suicide after killing someone, but there was no evidence, so it was hard to say it directly.Now, the evidence is solid and certain.Su Yaowang was the first one to stand up, and he yelled at Liu Er: "Despicable Hu Nu, you killed my daughter's nephew, and you still cover her up! Where, I gave my life here! I regret it! Back then, the mother of the child was not willing to let her marry far away, and Ran Ran was also depressed. I should have listened to them..." He started to get angry, but in the end, it came from sadness , Big tears rolled down.

Mrs. Xiahou also said at this time: "Master, I have said long ago that people who are not of my race must have a different heart. Xiahou Huan is usually very strong, but he did such a mortal thing." With a look of grief, "I just feel sorry for Miss Su and Mr. Yang, who died unfortunately..."

Everyone in the hall condemned Xia Houhuan one after another, especially saying that she has the heart of a tiger and wolf, and she is not of my race.Master Xiahou's face was four points surprised, three points sad, and three points hesitant.Xia Houhuan was brought up by him.This child is straightforward and never hides. Even if he is cold, he has a good heart.It is still difficult for him to accept that Xia Houhuan killed Su and Yang because he yearned for Xiahou Baiying, but if it wasn't for her, who else...

Among the people in the hall, only Xiahou Baizhi kept talking to himself: "No, no, sister Huan won't!" She was stimulated one after another, and the girl who was originally delicate and naive now had thin cheeks, pale eyes.For a cardamom girl, this is indeed too difficult to accept. First, the sister-in-law-to-be died suddenly, then sister Huan who got along day and night, and finally it was sister Huan who did all these things.She couldn't take it, and never would.

Tang Wuyi and Wen Tao looked at the people in the hall coldly, and looked at each other with suspicion in each other's eyes.

"Everyone listen to me." Tang Wuyi suddenly said loudly, "There are still some doubts about this matter that have not been solved. Dongdu Pavilion always wants to get to the bottom of things. Now that the suspect is dead without evidence, it is difficult to convince the public. Please go back and rest first Tang has a little time, and I will explain everything to everyone after the matter is clear."
