Omi had to sit up

The mansion of Minister of the Ministry of Officials is located in the north city of the capital, in the center of the block where officials and gentry live, and three streets away from the downtown area.When Lin Chenshu and Yang Wu arrived at Liang Fengyuan's home, they saw that many people had already gathered around Liang Fengyuan's house to watch.There are yamen servants standing at the gate of the mansion, some in red clothes with Jingzhao, and some in soap clothes from the court lieutenant's office. People from the two yamen stand on one side, blocking passers-by who want to look inside.

At this time, there were three floors of people gathered inside and three floors outside. Yang Wu took the lead to push the crowd away to clear the way for Lin Chen.

Both of them were dressed in the attire of court lieutenants. The passers-by next to them glanced at the person who came over. When their eyes touched Chen Shu's face, they were taken aback for a moment, and then quickly whispered to each other to discuss.

"Lord Lin." Seeing the new Tingwei Shaoqing, several helpers guarding the door were slightly surprised.

Hearing the words, the other government offices nearby couldn't help but look at Lin Chenshu.

This Shaoqing lord is usually well-known outside, but today I saw him wearing the clothes of a court official's yamen, and a suit of soap clothes tailored close to the body, which complemented his slender figure.He was not quite the same as the rumors, except that his face was whiter than a woman's, and he didn't look weak at all.

The yamen servants looked at Chen Shu a few more times.Chen Shu ignored other people's gazes, and led Yang Wu directly into Liang's residence.

In front of the Liang Mansion is the front yard for welcoming guests. In front of the yard is a screened wall, about one foot wide, engraved with fine landscapes. On the left wall is a series of inscriptions, and on the wall below the inscriptions, there is a pair of shoes. Protruding from behind the wall, the toe of the shoe is upside down crookedly.

Startled, Yang Wu looked at Lin Chenshu.Chen Shu was silent for a while, and soon picked up his steps and walked towards the shoe upper.

As you get closer, the perspective begins to widen.Sure enough, there was a person reclining behind the screen wall, dressed in the attire of a servant, his face was blue, his lips were blue, his eyes were staring, the whites of his eyes were turned up, and he was no longer breathing.

Behind the wall, there was a faint stench.

Chen Shu frowned, and looked up, only to see six or seven corpses lying in the front yard of the compound, all of which were in the same state of death as that of the corpses by the screen wall.

"Master Lin, these people seem to have been poisoned to death." Yang Wu leaned over and covered his nose to check beside the corpse, then got up and said.

Chen Shu was noncommittal, and even felt that the deceased's appearance was familiar.

In front of the hospital, there were already clerks counting the dead bodies, and there were officials taking notes beside them.One of them was dressed in the same style as Lin Chenshu, except that the embroidered pattern was black. When he heard someone coming in from the outside, he looked up and saw that it was Lin Chenshu, and his brows frowned.

"Lord Lin, why are you here?" This person is Ni Jin, the right supervisor of Tingwei, and Shao Yuping, the left supervisor of Tingwei, who work in the field, and are both Lord Tingwei's right and left hands.

"There was an accident in the Liang Mansion, I'll come to see it." Chen Shu replied, and went to check another corpse.

"..." Ni Jin watched as Lin Chenshu stayed in front of each corpse for a while and then left. He didn't look serious, and his brows became deeper and deeper. He wanted to say something, but he finally restrained himself.

"Where is Liang Fengyuan's body?" After a while, Master Lin asked there.

"..." Ni Jin glanced at Lin Chenshu, wanted to refute, but endured it and said, "Master Liang is in the dining room of the Liang residence."

dining room?

Chen Shu was slightly taken aback, thinking of the death conditions of the dead in front of him, he immediately took Yang Wu to look for the dining room, but before they arrived, there were already more than ten yamen servants wearing face scarves, two by two, carrying stretchers Go out from the dining room.

The stretcher was covered with a white cloth, and the contents inside could not be seen clearly, but there were human-shaped confessions on it, which were obviously corpses.

Standing where he was, Chen Shu saw the stretcher team passing by one by one, so he reached out to block a stretcher, and lifted the white cloth to take a look.

Lying in the white cloth was a woman about 40 years old, her eyes were half-closed at this time, revealing a slit between her eyes, and her lips were also blue.

Chen Shu looked at it silently, and quickly reached out to pinch the woman's chin.The woman had been dead for a long time, and the corpse had already started to stiffen. Chen Shu worked secretly, and soon the corpse's mouth was slightly opened, revealing the black mouth inside.

This death scene was so familiar that Chen Shu quickly thought of Jun Si who came to assassinate him, and Qi Yanchu who died while hunting in the autumn field.

Most likely the same poison.

Chen Shu frowned. He knew that Qi Yanchu's dead men were good at using this kind of poison, and even his penis was stained with the poison of this breath, but Qi Yanchu was dead, how could anyone still use this kind of thing?

"What are you doing?!" While Chen Shu was thinking, someone shouted and stopped from the dining room.

Chen Shu let go of his hand, turned his head to look at the source of the sound, and saw three officials standing at the door of the dining room, one of them was wearing a Tingwei costume, and it was Shao Yuping, the left supervisor of Tingwei, and the other two were wearing Jingzhao clothes. The official uniforms are all embroidered with ranks, and one of them has the same pattern as Lin Chenshu's, and they are all officials of the fourth rank.

Shao Yu walked out of the room in parallel, just in time to see a person from Tingwei looking through the corpse, at first he thought it was some Tingwei Shi, but when he saw the other person turned his head and showed a delicate face, he was slightly taken aback, then He immediately frowned and said in a low voice, "Master Lin?"

Is this person Lin Chenshu?

Jingzhao's officials heard the words and began to look at the person who suddenly stopped the corpse.

Lin Chenshu didn't answer, and asked, "Why did you move the corpse so quickly?"

"Master Liang is an important minister in the court, so it is not appropriate to expose the corpse outside." Shao Yuping looked at Lin Chenshu and said quickly, "Besides, it is already hot, and if the corpse is left here, it may cause a foul smell. A lot of people have been killed, and I am afraid it will be difficult to transport them if they are not transported."

As he spoke, he wondered again: "Master Lin is so concerned about the corpse, does he have any thoughts?"

"..." Chen Shu put down the white cloth and did not answer.

However, Shao Yuping stared at Lin Chenshu closely, and suddenly said: "Today is really rare, why is Mr. Lin not staying at the official office, but would come to Liang's mansion if he is interested?"

"I'm Tingwei Shaoqing, can't I come here?" Shao Yuping kept talking in a non-communicative manner, and Chen Shu raised his eyes and asked.

"..." Shao Yuping still had disdain in his eyes, he looked at Lin Chenshu warily, and didn't answer any more.

The Jingzhao officials next to him also secretly examined Lin Chenshu.

Chen Shu ignored Shao Yuping, left the dining room and went to the backyard.

Seeing this, Shao Yuping sneered, bid farewell to the two Jingzhao officials, and quickly followed Lin Chenshu.

It was clear that he was monitoring Lin Chenshu. Thinking of the rumors he heard in Tingwei this morning, Yang Wu's face changed slightly, and he hurriedly said, "Master Lin, they are suspicious of you, what should we do?"

Yesterday he came to the capital with great enthusiasm to join Lin Chenshu, and today he heard rumors in the official office that Mr. Lin was a well-known broken sleeve in Beijing. Lin Chenshu stepped down, and now that something happened in the Liang Manor, Lin Chenshu should be listed among the suspects.

Those people spoke self-righteously and logically, but Yang Wu didn't believe it at all.

gossip.

How could Mr. Lin be like what they said.

He saw Lin Chenshu punishing evil officials, and he even followed him up the mountain to suppress bandits. He watched him sit in the town in red in the drizzle on the green mountains, and even accompanied him to interrogate prisoners. His resoluteness was admirable.How could such an adult be a broken sleeve.

But rumors hurt people, this time something happened in the Liang Mansion, Yang Wu was really afraid that Mr. Lin would be slandered by the rumors and be implicated.

He secretly blocked Shao Yuping's gaze from staring at Lin Chenshu. Lin Chenshu, who was walking in front, paused slightly and stopped.

He was taken aback for a moment, thinking that Master Lin was going to say something, and hurried forward, only to see a corpse crawling in front of Lin Chenshu. Scratching the dirt, fingers curled up.And half of that person's face was pressed against the ground, half of his face was exposed in sight, his face was twisted in pain, and his eyes were fixed on the front.

The direction he was staring at was the back door of the backyard, only three feet away from him.

Most of the corpses in Liang's residence were in the front yard and living room, but this one was not in the grass in the backyard.

This corpse was none other than Liang Du.

Yang Wu's heart skipped a beat, but he heard Shao Yuping's voice from behind: "Master Lin, you should know the person in front, right?"

Chen Shu looked at Liang Du's staring eyes, paused for a while on the other's lips, then retracted his eyes and asked, "Lord Zuo Jian, have you found out the cause of the death of Liang's family?"

Instead of responding to his own question, he asked him a question directly.

Sure enough, it is official.

The corners of Shao Yuping's mouth twitched slightly, and he finally snarled: "It's obvious that the people in the Liang Mansion were all poisoned, and someone obviously poisoned their meals."

"Meal poisoning? What is the explanation for the dead at the door and the dead here?" Chen Shu asked.

Shao Yuping was slightly taken aback, then frowned and said, "Jingzhao Shaoyin and I have checked the servants in Liang's mansion, and found that the cook of the dining room was not among the dead, and had already escaped from Liang's mansion."

Liang Fengyuan died in the dining room, but the cook who served the meals is nowhere to be seen, which is indeed suspicious.

Chen Shu nodded and said, "Then why did the cook poison him? Is there any shortage of property in Liang's mansion?"

"..." Shao Yuping looked at Lin Chenshu's back, "Master Lin seems to be quite concerned about this matter? The people from Jingzhao are still investigating this matter. Master Youjian and I just stopped by to have a look. If Wei takes over this matter, he still has to read the documents above."

As he said, some government servants had already come to carry Liang Du's body.The dead Liang Du didn't have the dandy look of his life, only a terrified death face, and the body was stiff, and the person who carried it took a lot of effort to put the body on the stretcher.

Covered with a white cloth, it covered the distorted death.

Chen Shu looked at it for a while, without making another sound, turned around and opened the back door, and left the Liang Mansion.

Yang Wu also followed Chen Shu to leave, and when there was no one around, he frowned and said, "Master Lin, what happened in Liang's residence is strange, I'm afraid it wasn't the cook's fault."

"You think so too?" Chen Shu asked.

"...Yes." Seeing Chen Shu's question, Yang Wu quickly said, "When I was a county captain in Qingshan, I also took over poisoning cases. The most common poisoning is arsenic, but I saw people in the Liang family The death condition is not the same as that of arsenic poisoning, and the poisoning is probably more severe than arsenic."

He paused as he spoke, and said: "Unless the cook is from the Jianghu, it is very difficult for ordinary people to find poisons stronger than arsenic."

Yang Wu learned martial arts, although he didn't mix in the world, he had heard the rumors in the world.

Chen Shu sighed, "That cook definitely didn't do it."

As he spoke, he and Yang Wu walked a few steps along the wall of the Liang Mansion, and suddenly noticed a flash of light in the corner of his eyes.He froze for a moment, frowned suddenly and stopped.

"What's the matter? Master Lin?" Yang Wu asked.

At this time the sun has risen, and the sun has fallen from the sky, reflecting something shining.The light was not strong, even ordinary people passing by would not be able to detect it, but it was very familiar to Chen Shu.

His face was slightly gloomy, and he quickly walked to the corner.

There were weeds growing under the corner of the Liang Mansion, and it looked like there was nothing but grass and dirt, but Chen Shu narrowed his eyes slightly, but reached out and picked something from the grass, and took out something.

Yang Wu couldn't see it clearly at first, until Lin Chenshu took it under the sun, and then realized that Master Lin was holding a silver needle, the needle was one inch long, glowing with silver light, so thin that he couldn't see it clearly.

this stitch...

"Lord Lu?!" Yang Wu was surprised.

Lord Lu was the guard who followed Lin Chenshu before. When he was in Qingshan, Yang Wu saw this Lord Lu using a hidden weapon against the enemy. He didn't know what hidden weapon the opponent was using at the beginning until he went down the mountain. After seeing the dead faces of the group of people in black, it was only then that Master Lu used the one-inch silver needle that Master Lin was holding in his hand.

But how could there be Mr. Lu's silver needle outside Liang's mansion?

Chen Shu looked at it silently, and suddenly flipped his hands, and the silver needle had disappeared in his hand.

What method is this?

Yang Wu was taken aback again, but saw that Lin Chenshu had already stood up and said, "Lord Lu is also an important official, so things about him cannot be publicized."

"Lord Lin, don't worry." Yang Wu quickly understood, "I will definitely not talk about this with outsiders."

Chen Shu took the silver needle, but the worry gradually came to his brows.

Yicun Yin Shulu Tongming has been working for Xie Zhen, and it must not be a coincidence that his silver needle is here.But he appeared here at this time... Could it be that the case of the destruction of Liang's mansion was related to Xie Zhen?
