Dongdu Pavilion Case Record

"Suxin! Suxin!" It was King Qi who came. He should have just gotten the news and came over directly.

He pushed aside Tang Wuyi and Wen Tao, and went directly to see the lady Suxin on the ground, only to see that the beautiful woman who was with him yesterday has now become a corpse. He just promised to bring her back to the capital and she died like this !Because the garden was closed for investigation in the past two days, Lady Suxin wore the crab shell green plain gauze dress that is common here in Dongfang, without any powder or daisy, which made her look even more charming and thin as silk.

King Qi felt sad, he had only met Suxin for a few days, and Suxin was not the woman he fell in love with, but he was so powerful that he saw the woman he wanted to protect die in front of his eyes, the grief and indignation in his heart Irrepressible.

Seeing this, Cui Dai persuaded: "Your Highness, even Mrs. Suxin...it's not safe here, let's go back to Yangzhou Mansion."

King Qi ignored him, but glared at Tang Wuyi and said, "Tang Yue, how did you investigate the case! Three of them died, why haven't the murderer been caught yet!"

Tang Wuyi knelt down and said, "Tang is incompetent. After five days, Tang will definitely catch the real culprit!"

"Hmph, even if you catch her, she won't be able to bring her back to life." Qi Wang recalled Suxin's superb dancing posture, and felt sad.

"Your Highness, if it was done by one person, this person has already killed three people and is extremely vicious. Please return to Yangzhou Mansion, Your Highness." Wen Tao said neither humble nor overbearing.

"Oh, it's you." King Qi stared at Wen Tao. Although he was young, his eyes were clear.King Qi paused and said, "Then I will wait for you to explain." King Qi usually looks like a rich and idle person, but at this time he is also aggressive.

Seeing this, Tang Wuyi hurriedly pulled Wen Tao back.

"I shouldn't have been drinking yesterday." Tang Wuyi regretted, "Obviously, he had already considered the possibility of a murder."

"It's okay, we will definitely find traces and flaws." Wen Tao comforted, "I want to dissect Miss Suxin's body. Although it looks like she was hanged to death by a tie on the beam, there is no stool underneath. It should be Those who were put up there may have died before they were put up."

Tang Wuyi nodded and said: "King Qi is still here at the moment, after he leaves, I will ask Fangzhu Chu to move the body to Baihualou, and we will go see it later."

"Then let's go back to Fangfei Pavilion first. In the morning, I checked the golden butterfly that fell on the stone boat. I raised two core problems. We solved the first one. Through dislocation, the woman in red suddenly appeared in our eyes." and disappeared, but the second problem, how to keep the Kingdee flying, has not been resolved.”

"Maybe it has nothing to do with this case?" Tang Wuyi said, "Maybe the woman in red just wanted to imitate Lady Diewu."

"I still want to look at it again, I always feel like I have seen it somewhere."

"it is good."

The two returned to Fangfei Pavilion, and Wen Tao took out the dozen or so pieces of gold butterflies, which seemed to be a kind of shiny gold paper material.Wen Tao tried to take a piece and floated down from the air. Although Kingdie was thin and light, it would still fall slowly and land on the table.Originally, there happened to be another piece of gold butterfly where the golden butterfly fell, but when the falling golden butterfly was about to touch another piece of gold butterfly, the two pieces moved away in the opposite direction, as if they did not want to touch each other.

"Huh?" Wen Tao asked curiously, "What's going on?" He tried with other pieces of gold butterflies, and they all moved away in the opposite direction as soon as they were about to be touched.However, after several attempts, the mutual repulsion of these king butterflies seems to be getting weaker and weaker.

"Tang Yue, do you think there is such a possibility?" Wen Tao said, "These golden butterflies repel each other in a certain way, so that after being scattered in the air, the golden butterflies repel each other as if they have been flying for a long time."

Tang Wuyi thought while watching: "This is a kind of illusion from the Western Regions."

"Illusion in the Western Regions?"

"Well, Hu people's magic performances were very common in the previous dynasty. Some can turn stones into gold, some can transform humans and animals, and some can even create illusions. However, the illusion of the Western Regions has declined in this dynasty. Strictly speaking The lantern moth performed by Lady Xifang at the end is also a kind of illusion." Tang Wuyi said.

"Lamp moth!" Wen Tao was shocked, "I thought it was just a lamp at the time, but now that I think about it, the lady of Xifang sprinkled a handful of lamp moths that last for a long time. The principle is the same as that of Kingdee! They all use this kind of gold paper material first. Cut them into the shape of moths or butterflies, then somehow make them repel each other, and finally throw them in the air, because they repel each other and they will last for a long time!"

"So that's how it is." Tang Wuyi said, "This illusion doesn't sound too difficult, maybe Lady Diewu also used this method back then."

"That's right, but who would use this illusion in Jinyuan now?" Wen Tao pondered.

"The only Lady Xifang who is sure to use it is dead, and... her maid Aqing! Qing came from Xifang and has been following Lady Xifang. She is likely to be able to use this illusion." Tang Wuyi was excited. road.

"Ah Qing...Ah Qing, that day Ah Qing took Xifang lady to the lake, and then Xifang lady was taken to perform a song and dance show, Ah Qing said that she had been on the shore..." Wen Tao recalled that time clear record.

"Taotao, I suddenly thought of something. At that time, Lady Xifang's boat sank, what about Lady Du on the boat?" Tang Wuyi looked at him.

"Du Niang!" This is the first time Wen Tao went to the small island in the middle of the lake and felt something was wrong.At that time, the flower boat needed to ferry back and forth between the small island in the middle of the lake and the lakeside. There was a ferry lady on board. After the flower boat caught fire, the entire lake was very calm, and there was no cry for help. "Could it be that Du Niang also drowned?" Wen Tao asked.

"It's unlikely, Du Niang knows how to swim, and she usually stands at the stern of the boat. If she catches fire, she will definitely be able to jump into the water to save herself." Tang Wuyi said firmly, "I'm going to find Fangzhu Chu now to find out about Du Niang, don't you want to kill Suxin? The lady's body? I'll see you in Baihualou later."

"it is good!"

Two hours later, Baihualou.

When Tang Wuyi arrived, Wen Tao was sewing the body of Lady Suxin.As the saying goes, practice makes perfect. After Wen Tao sewed a few corpses according to Tang Wuyi's suggestion, he is now quite experienced, holding a needle and flying up and down.Seen from a distance, he thought this young Taoist priest was mending his own socks.

Although the current situation is urgent, Tang Wuyi felt a little joy from the bottom of his heart when he saw the situation.Seeing his eyes smiling, Wen Tao asked, "But do you have a clue?"

Tang Wuyi shook his head and said, "It's really weird."

"Oh? How do you say that?" Wen Tao stopped what he was doing.

"There are three maids in Jinyuan, all of them are there. I asked them one by one. The Jinyuan was quite lively that day, and all three maidens were on duty. Except for the flower boat of the lady of the court during the festival, there were also some guests in other places. You need to use a boat. That day, it was the oldest lady who ferried the oiran ladies to and fro. She was the one who ferried the first three ladies. She came here temporarily to help, and she will be the one to take the last ferry. Because the experienced ferry lady happened to have a ferry job in another part of Jinyuan, she gave the flower boat to the temporary ferry lady."

"Where's the temporary maid?"

"Strange! Disappeared out of thin air!"
