Chapter 16 The Murderer of the Flower Peony Case

"I'm Yuchi Wan'er, why did you trespass on my boudoir?" Yuchi Wan'er asked Qin Yuan fearfully, under his scrutiny, she didn't have the slightest momentum.

"If you are really Yuchi Wan'er, you should know me, and you should also know that this is not your boudoir at all."

Qin Yuan stood by the window, vigilantly keeping a distance of three feet away from Yuchi Wan'er.In case she had any crooked thoughts and suddenly killed herself, he didn't want to be taken away.

"I don't know what you're talking about." Yuchi Wan'er saw that Qin Yuan was on guard against her, hugged the quilt and curled up into a ball, lowering her head and not looking at Qin Yuan.

"You won't last long with this body, and it will rot and smell in two days, and it will be covered with corpse spots. At that time, your affairs will be exposed. Even if you can escape everyone's eyes by chance this time, if you change A fresh corpse continues to be used, what will happen in the future? Eternal life like this? Bearing more and more murders meaninglessly?"

Qin Yuan saw Yuchi Wan'er's hesitation, and continued to hit her.

"Raising the soup to stop it from boiling is worse than dredging the bottom of the pot!"

Yuchi Wan'er hugged the quilt even tighter, tears streaming down one by one.

"No... They said that if I do what they tell me, I can really become a beauty."

His heroic face was full of pitiful expressions, which seemed a little out of place.

"Resurrecting you directly will save you the trouble of filling the corpse with mercury and incense, and it will greatly avoid the risk of being found out. If they really had the ability to revive you on Hua Mudan, it wouldn't be so laborious in the first place. Dispose of Hua Mudan's body. Seeking skins from tigers is nothing but death." Qin Yuan explained, "Now that you are caught, you are useless, and you are even more useless. You are an abandoned child."

Yuchi Wan'er was stunned, and burst into tears, "Why is this happening? I just want to become a beauty and live beautifully in everyone's eyes..."

After Qin Yuan waited for Yuchi Wan'er to calm down a little, he induced her to tell her story.

She was originally the fire-burning maid of Ruyifang, and she was called Yang Liuniang.Because of her mediocre appearance and a little hunchback, she was disliked by her family since she was a child, and was sold to Ruyifang as a rough envoy when she was eight years old.At that time, there was a servant girl named Xiaolu who entered Ruyifang with her. Because of her better appearance, she was selected by the madam when she was ten years old and trained to be a dancer.

The longer Xiaolu grows, the more juicy and beautiful she is. When she dances, she flies her long sleeves between the sky and the earth, just like a fairy descending to earth.Every time she performed and danced in the workshop, Yang Liuniang would go back to watch, envious in her heart, and wished that one day she could attract so many men's eyes and loud applause.Later, Xiaolu was favored by a rich man, so he redeemed himself and went out to become a concubine, leading a wealthy life that many people in the workshop could not envy.

Xiaolu was only 17 years old when she was redeemed, and Yang Liuniang was 23 years old after doing menial work.Later, the woodshed caught fire, her face was burned, and her appearance became even uglier.The people in Ruyi Workshop despised her even more, shouted at her, no one knew her last name, called her Yang Liuniang, and everyone called her Chou Niang.

Until a month ago, the new madam of Ruyifang suddenly noticed her and asked her if she wanted to be a beauty, if she wanted to be the best dancer in the world, dancing for saints and queens.Of course Yang Liuniang is willing, but she knows that she doesn't deserve her looks.Yang Liuniang heard that the madam said that she could change her body, and her wish could come true. She immediately agreed to the madam, even if she paid the price.

Afterwards, she obeyed the madam's instructions and learned to dance with her new body. Unexpectedly, this body, with its strange fragrance, could even summon butterflies.Yang Liuniang's wish came true. She became a dancer more beautiful than Xiaolu. When she dances, she can attract butterflies to accompany her. She is sought after and desired by countless men in the world.Yang Liuniang was very happy for a time, and was very grateful to the madam for changing her destiny.

But after a few days, Yang Liuniang realized that her body was not right. She couldn't eat and drink like normal people, and she couldn't do whatever she wanted.Because her body was a corpse, a corpse that would rot if she was not careful.She wants to become a living person again, a real living beauty.Finally, under the coercion and temptation of the madam, Yang Liuniang agreed to her to assassinate the eldest grandson empress.

"The bustard said that if I succeed, I will be resurrected on the body of the eldest grandson queen. I can become the mother of the world, the mother of the entire Tang Dynasty! This is nothing I have ever thought about in my life, because Hua Mudan's My body is almost useless, my original body has rotted into the soil, I have no choice... I can only try it."

"Did I make a huge mistake?" Yang Liuniang only realized how serious it was when she recalled what she had done.

"Everyone has a love of beauty. Human nature is like this. You are just being used by others. I can see that your heart is not bad at first, but the injustice of the world has made you suffer for so many years." Qin Yuan's voice was calm and gentle. , without any tone of accusation.

Yang Liuniang didn't expect Qin Yuan to understand her, and she gradually believed in him, so she hurriedly asked Qin Yuan what she should do next.

"Everyone makes mistakes. If you have the heart to repent, you will have the opportunity to start over after you go to hell and receive the punishment. Maybe you will be the envy of everyone in the next reincarnation." Qin Yuan asked Yang Liuniang if she had any regrets Heart.

Yang Liuniang nodded repeatedly, "I don't want to live like this, I don't want to continue killing people, I don't want to live in dead bodies every day and be treated as a monster by everyone."

"Then can you tell me what is your future plan with the madam? If you succeed in this matter and you really replace the eldest grandson empress, how will you contact her next?"

Yang Liuniang: "She repeatedly told me to be cautious, and if I succeeded, she would lure the sage to kill Changsun Wuji. If something unexpected happens, send someone to the back door of Changsun's mansion to pass the news. There are three long and one short knocks on the door, and the code is 'Li Zheng A flower in the temple died'."

Qin Yuan pondered for a moment, then asked Yang Liuniang if there was anything else to explain, and if the madam had other accomplices.

"Besides the madam, there are four nursing homes helping her with errands, and I haven't seen anyone else." After explaining this, Yang Liuniang suddenly felt relieved, and instead of being as frightened as before.She regretted killing Yuchi Wan'er, and confessed to Qin Yuan.

"If you sincerely repent, then leave Yuchi Wan'er's body to reincarnate, that's the way you should go." Qin Yuan persuaded.

Yang Liuniang hurriedly asked Qin Yuan what he should do.

"Close your eyes, where your heart goes, that's where you go."

Qin Yuan waited for a while, and seeing that Yang Liuniang was motionless, he helped Yuchi Wan'er's body to lie down on the bed, and tied a silver needle on her forehead, then put down the bed curtain, and walked out.

Yuchi Baolin waited nervously outside, stretched her neck and looked around for a long time, finally saw Qin Yuan coming out, and rushed to meet him to ask about the situation.

"Close the door and window, light an incense burner near the door and window and burn wormwood, and I will come back in seven days. Taboo has already told you, don't let anyone in, or you will be responsible for the consequences!"

Qin Yuan's eyes widened suddenly, and he warned Yuchi Baolin with a creepy expression.

Yuchi Baolin shivered in fright, nodded her head in agreement, and swore to Qin Yuan again that he would absolutely obey.

Qin Yuan then went to Ruyifang to meet Wen Yanbo and Li Yuanjing.

"Sure enough, as you expected, there is indeed no clue here at Ruyifang. The madam and the four nurses are gone. Although the rest of the people were interrogated rigorously, none of them knew. It is said that the madam suddenly said yesterday that she would close the door. Everyone thought It's because Yang Liuniang entered the palace, so she didn't pay much attention to it." After Wen Yanbo finished explaining, he asked Qin Yuanwei what was going on with Chi Wan'er.

"Wait for a few days and it will be fine."

Qin Yuan asked Wen Yanbo where the elder Sun Wuji's house was.

Wen Yanbo: "Duke Qi lives in Chongrenfang, which is closer to the imperial palace. Come out from Anshangmen, go straight east along the horizontal street, and pass Wubenfang. Why did Mr. Qin Lang suddenly ask about Duke Qi's residence?"

"Suddenly curious."

Qin Yuan couldn't explain this to Wen Yanbo and Li Yuanjing.If he did, he would have to explain the fact that Yang Liuniang was going to take away the eldest grandson queen, but ended up in Yuchi Wan'er's body.Then they will deduce that Yuchi Wan'er is dead.Qin Yuan will continue to confess that he is actually a god, and that he can save Yuchi Wan'er with blood.

Not to mention whether these two people will believe themselves after hearing these 'crazy words'.He will be punished for revealing the identity of the immortal and the secret of saving lives with the blood of the immortal without authorization, and Wen Yanbo and Li Yuanjing will also be implicated and die poorly.

So Qin Yuan can only act arbitrarily in this matter.Time was running out, so he rode straight to Wubenfang.

Wen Yanbo and Li Yuanjing saw Qin Yuan, who was usually gentle and gentle, run so crazy.The two of them stayed for a long while before realizing that they would lead someone to follow...

Qin Yuan went straight to the back door of Changsun Wuji and knocked on the door as agreed.The back door opened, and a servant from a family looked at Qin Yuan and said, "A flower in the Lizheng Palace died." The servant asked him if he had any news to share.

"The queen said she didn't know what to do."

The servant nodded and closed the door.

At this time, Wen Yanbo and Li Yuanjing brought people to Qin Yuan, and Qin Yuan told Wen Yanbo that there was something wrong with the servants of the grandson's mansion and asked him to arrest him.

Wen Yanbo: "Do you know the identity of Changsun Wuji? We are the ones who take him so directly—"

Qin Yuan took out the token that Li Shimin had given him.

Wen Yanbo looked embarrassed: "Even if you have this token, you can't touch people in Uncle Guo's house casually. He has a bad temper. Let's inform Uncle Guo first, and then arrest people?"

"When it's too late, the madam will notice that she has escaped abnormally." Qin Yuan knocked on the back door again, ordering the servants to grab him.The housekeeper of Changsun's Mansion came to ask about the situation, but Qin Yuan didn't have time to explain to them in detail, so he took the people away first.

This servant was bought by the madam because of his greed for money and lust, and became a spy of the Changsun Mansion.He couldn't stand the torture at all, and soon confessed that the bawd's hiding place was in Yong'an Square, which was only two doors away from Qin Yuan's residence.

The madam and four nurses were subsequently arrested in Yonglefang.The madam was a young woman in her early twenties with a strong temper. She immediately admitted that she had instigated Yang Liuniang to assassinate the eldest grandson empress.

"Why do you want to do this?" Qin Yuan asked her.

"Because Li Shimin has a deep hatred with me! My father is Dou Jiande. In the fourth year of Wude, Li Shimin sent troops to suppress and capture my father, causing my father to be beheaded! I want him to experience the feeling of losing the person he loves the most like me. I want to let him betray his relatives and be tortured to death little by little, so that he can relieve his hatred!" The madam sneered with countless hatred.

No wonder the madam didn't directly plan to kill Li Shimin, her purpose of going all the way was to torture Li Shimin first.This idea is a bit special, perhaps because the hatred is too deep.

"Did you use sorcery on Yang Liuniang?" Qin Yuan asked again.

The bustard looked back at Qin Yuan, "I don't know what you said."

"When did you focus on Hua Peony? Where did you get the sorcery?"

The madam just sneered and said nothing.

Wen Yanbo and others began to torture the madam in turn.The madam's body is like a stone that doesn't hurt, no matter how tortured she is, she just keeps silent.In the end, Wen Yanbo and other interrogators were exhausted and out of breath. The madam saw them as 'poor', and sneered repeatedly before she spoke a few words.

"Since I, a weak woman, intend to take revenge on Li Shimin, of course I have to learn some skills. I learned magic from Tubo, but I am not good at learning, and I am ashamed of my teacher. As for Hua Mudan, I happen to live in Yong'anfang. , I got to see her face once, and when I heard that she was dead that day, I suddenly thought that this person's body was available, so I sent my subordinates to pretend to be government servants to transport the body away. You all know what happened after that, so I have nothing to say. "

After saying that, the madam begged for a quick death, and kept silent no matter what she asked.

Everyone could see that the madam was tough, and felt that there was nothing to ask, so they let it go.

After everyone left, Qin Yuan went to ask the bustard alone: ​​"Why did you kill Gu Qingqing?"

"Gu Qingqing?" The bustard coughed weakly twice, then frowned and looked back at Qin Yuan.

Qin Yuan saw the natural doubts in the eyes of the madam, which meant that the madam didn't know that Gu Qingqing was dead.

Then who killed Gu Qingqing?

……

"Awesome, I didn't expect that the case would be solved by us in less than a day! We should drink to celebrate!" Li Yuanjing booed.

After Qin Yuan returned to the palace, he immediately objected when he heard this sentence: "Your Majesty is young, you should not drink alcohol. Drinking alcohol hurts your brain and you will not be smart."

Li Yuanjing: "Don't try to lie to children."

"It's really annoying." Wen Yanbo agreed with a smile.

"Bah, I just don't believe it." Li Yuanjing said in disbelief, tilting his neck.

Wen Yanbo elaborated the details of the case in the memorial, and after showing it to Li Yuanjing and Qin Yuan, he presented it to Li Shimin.Li Shimin then ordered that the three of them would meet tomorrow.

After a day of exhaustion, Qin Yuan rode his horse swaying home.

When he was about to get home, Qin Yuan found dozens of officers and soldiers standing around his residence.The officers and soldiers were all wearing cold armor and holding big knives. The knives were unsheathed, and the white blades were polished brightly, showing a murderous look.
