Chapter 28
The carriage drove into the yard that had been leased in advance.

Everyone got out of the car, washed up briefly, and gathered in the front yard.

The minister of Dali Temple who came to explain the case hurriedly bowed his hands and saluted.

Feng Lisheng raised his hand: "Master Chen, you don't have to be polite, let's talk about the case."

Master Chen, Minister of Dali Temple, looked hesitantly at Shen Mingjiao who was following Feng Lisheng,

Feng Lisheng waved his hand: "It's okay, the princess is one of my own."

Master Chen concealed the surprise in his heart, opened the file and began to tell the case:
"Let's talk about the extermination case first. The Fang family, the richest man in Luodu, was the first to have an accident. The incident happened half a month ago. None of the master and 180 servants in the family survived. The fatal injuries were all on the neck. Judging from the wound marks, it was preliminarily determined that it was bitten by an animal."

Thinking of the horrific scarlet scene at the crime scene, Mr. Chen shuddered.

"Based on the scene and wounds, the deceased did not show any resistance during his lifetime, and from the autopsy of Wu Zuo, no signs of poisoning were found."

"According to the descriptions of the neighbors, there was no movement other than hearing some dogs barking that night."

"On the third day after the incident, Luodu Tongju's Mansion and Tongzhi's Mansion were destroyed one after another, using exactly the same method,"

Shen Mingjiao gasped when she heard that, which meant that so many people were all killed to death.

At the same time, she also raised a question: "Is it possible? These people are the kind who are addicted to smoke, colorless and odorless."

After all, drug addiction is no better than poison, and it is difficult to be detected.

"The princess doesn't know something. People have subconsciousness. Even in a severe coma, the body will struggle instinctively, unless it is a one-shot death, and the deceased's throat has been bitten and the throat has been bitten for at least ten breaths."

Feng Lisheng tapped on the table with his finger: "Are there any witnesses?"

Mr. Chen hesitated and said: "On the night that the Tongpan mansion was destroyed, a little beggar saw a white shadow flying into the yard, but that little beggar is not very smart."

Feng Lisheng: "Arrange the person properly, and the left and right can be regarded as the only witnesses."

"Tell me about the case of Ku Yin's disappearance."

Master Chen opened another file, and his expression became more solemn: "Five days ago, Luodu's library was looted, and it was estimated to be 2000 million taels."

Feng Wu took a deep breath and said that Luodu is rich, which is indeed true.You must know that Daxia's treasury is only worth [-] million taels.

"All the soldiers guarding the treasury were killed. The method is exactly the same as that in the Miemen case. All the officials in Luodu were taken into custody."

After finishing speaking, he loaded up all the files, "Since Your Highness has sent the prince to take over the case, I can rest assured."

Feng Lisheng took it, "Master Chen has worked hard."

Master Chen breathed a sigh of relief. Since His Majesty sent His Royal Highness King Su to take over this case, it can only mean that this case involves some inhuman secrets, and it is better for him to be less involved.

After Mr. Chen left, Feng Lisheng asked a few people: "Tell me your views on this case."

Shen Mingjiao rested her chin lazily: "Obviously, the murderer must not be human."

Feng Lisheng glanced at her, as if asking if he could be serious when he was so serious.

Shen Mingjiao simply leaned on the reclining chair: "Otherwise, just like what is said in the scriptures, someone can control animals to kill people with rhythm."

Feng Wu twitched the corners of his mouth: "Princess, it's all fabricated by literati. If there is a skill that can drive animals, let alone other things, if the two sides are at war, they can directly drive the enemy's horses to counterattack. Wouldn't it be a waste of money? One pawn wins the battle!"

Shen Mingjiao: "Then how do you explain the silent killing of so many people? There can't really be monsters!"

Finally, Feng Lisheng took Feng Wu and others to the crime scene to find clues.

Tuliu Shen Mingjiao was bored picking leaves in the empty yard.

Wanted to go out and shop around, but now that this is the place, the whole Luo City is in panic, and the shops on the street are basically closed.

Finally, some women who came to sweep the yard were called, took out ingots of silver from their purses, and asked them to tell some interesting stories about the city, and they were very rewarding.

A few women who do rough work every day have never seen such a good thing.Immediately, the eloquent and gossip-loving voice began to speak.

However, these few people were born at the bottom, and their knowledge is limited. They talked about how the mother-in-law teased the daughter-in-law, which widow stole the man, and which sister-in-law and uncle had to say things...

It was fresh to hear at first, but the descriptions of these people were too exaggerated, and there were only a few sentences repeated over and over again.

Shen Mingjiao leaned lazily on the beauty's bed, drowsy from hearing it.

Seeing that the host's wife was dissatisfied with what she heard, several people looked at the white ingot, racking their brains to recall the most interesting gossip about Luo Ducheng. Someone thought of something, clapped their hands excitedly and said:

"If you want to talk about our Lord Zhao, the governor of Luodu City, he is definitely a handsome man comparable to the jade-faced Pan An!"

Someone immediately said not to be outdone, "That's fine, Mr. Zhao is still very infatuated!"

Haitang asked curiously: "How infatuated, is there no concubine in the mansion?"

The person who spoke froze, Shan smiled and said: "That's not true, Mr. Zhao has a wife and a concubine..."

Haitang curled her lips: "We already have concubines, why are we talking about being infatuated!"

But I heard the woman continue to narrate emotionally: "If you want to talk about the relationship between your lord and Aunt Lian, it is really epic!"

Haitang was dumbfounded.

What?Have times changed?When will the love between a man and a mistress be called epic!
Shen Mingjiao also became interested, and sat up a little bit.Seeing this, the woman spoke even harder:
"This matter started five years ago. Mr. Zhao and Mrs. Zhao are family friends. Later, the parents of the two families betrothed the two of them.
Unexpectedly, the Zhao family was suddenly wronged and imprisoned, and Mrs. Zhao's family immediately divorced Mr. Zhao's family for fear of being implicated.

On the contrary, Cailian, the maid beside Mrs. Zhao, spent all the ransom money she had saved for many years in order to save Master Zhao.

In the end, the truth was found out, and because of his meritorious service in cooperating with Shangfeng in handling the case, Mr. Zhao was exceptionally promoted to Lord of Luodu City.

Mrs. Zhao's family saw that Mrs. Zhao was well-off, and came over to propose remarriage. Seeing the old friendship between the two families, Mrs. Zhao reluctantly agreed to the marriage, but took Cailian as his concubine and loved her to the fullest. "

Haitang felt that although it sounded quite beautiful, she always felt an indescribable sense of disobedience. After thinking about it, she asked, "What about Mrs. Zhao?"

The woman laughed disdainfully: "The two have been married for five years. I heard that Mr. Zhao has never stayed in Mrs. Zhao's courtyard. Heh! She deserves it, who made her call off the engagement when she saw her fiancé's family in trouble..."

Haitang felt it was right to say so.But I also felt that maybe Mrs. Zhao didn't know about it at the time.

Shen Mingjiao lowered his eyelashes lazily, thinking in his heart that if this story is polished up and written into a vernacular, it will definitely sell well.

After all, the humble little white flower heroine flew to the branches once she counterattacked!

The daughter of a rich family is selfish and vain, and she dislikes her troubled husband's family!

With this plot and the characters, it's hard not to be popular.

It's just... Not to mention that the two were not married at the time, and the fiancé's family might be exiled or even beheaded. Although the divorce is a bit ruthless, it is understandable.

Could it be that they have to die together to be considered affectionate!

And... since when did the imperial envoy become so talkative?
Not to mention being unable to kneel in the rain, you may be thrown out by the government servants before you even bend your knees.

At this time, another person lowered his voice and said mysteriously: "I heard that someone sent a flower girl to Mr. Zhao a while ago. What's her name is Yunshu? I heard that she looks protruding and warped. pretty!"

Shen Mingjiao's originally indifferent expression froze, covered her beating heart, raised her head, and stared fixedly at the person who spoke: "What do you think is the name of that flower girl?"

The man was so frightened that he took a step back and stammered, "I... I also heard from others..."

Shen Mingjiao directly stuffed the ingot of silver into her hand, and urged: "Quickly tell me, how much do you know about this Yunshu?"

The man was overjoyed, held the money and thought for a while: "I heard that Yun Shu is one of the Eight Beauties of the Qinhuai River in the south of the Yangtze River. She is nineteen years old this year and looks beautiful, so she and..."

She glanced at Shen Mingjiao, waited for a reaction, quickly stopped her mouth, and lowered her head in panic.

Shen Mingjiao couldn't care less about these things.Her heart was beating fast now.

Her mother's surname was Yun, and her elder sister hated people in the Hou family. When she was a child, she often said in anger that she wanted to change her name to Yunshu.And looks age-appropriate...

Could it be, that is really my sister!

She asked a few more questions carefully, and seeing that she couldn't come up with any more questions, she rewarded each of them with a few pieces of silver and sent them away.

But she walked around anxiously in the courtyard, thinking of something, she called out in a certain direction: "Wang Dashan."

After the words fell, the thin and thin Wang Dashan fell silently from the opposite eaves.

Shen Mingjiao told him: "Help me check someone."

Wang Dashan shook his head, "Your Highness has ordered you to stay and protect the princess."

Shen Mingjiao raised her forehead: "Then take me to your Highness's head office!"

Wang Dashan was still Yaotou, and said in a daze: "Your Highness went to Yizhuang in the south of the city. Without His Highness's order, my subordinates dare not take you there."
