The punishment of the female imperial court

She still remembered that when Boyi checked the footprints on the ninth floor, he found that there was a slight collapse near the window.

This is probably the reason why the murderer jumped to the window with light work for the authenticity of the footprints, and then retreated from the window to the stairs wearing the pair of embroidered shoes.This point was ignored at the time just because the ninth floor was in disrepair for a long time.

"I still remember that those footprints were firmly stepped on every step, which seemed to be the way of a person with flat feet, but when I checked the corpse that day, her arches were high, and it was absolutely impossible to leave such footprints that were indistinguishable from reality .”

But if someone with big feet stuffed himself into those shoes for a walk, the marks left would naturally be different.

At this time, Sui Feng, who had just shown the window trick to everyone on the eighth floor, also went downstairs, and showed everyone what he had just used just now. The black cloth and bamboo pieces that were exactly the same as what Bo Yi showed made everyone feel uncomfortable. Not convinced.

"And the corpse, of course, was hidden on the eighth floor of the Zhaixing Building early in the morning. You only need to watch the timing and find the right witnesses, and you can throw it down to attract their attention."

Yu Qiansi made a "please" gesture, leading everyone to look at the fake corpse on the ground.

"The corpse fell from a high altitude and was beyond recognition. Naturally, many traces can be covered up. In fact, she should have been dead before she fell. The murderer must have used techniques such as suffocation to make the corpse look invisible, and then dumped the corpse at high altitude. , destroy all external evidence.”

She looked at the blood winding under her feet, and continued: "But, dead bodies will not have so much blood flowing out. Therefore, he also prepared a hollowed out ice ball, injected fresh pig blood into it, and put it in the arms of the corpse. After the corpse fell and was shattered, the blood would naturally flow out. It was hot at that time, and the bluestone slabs on the ground had been in the sun for a whole day, and the shattered ice chips would instantly turn into water and blend with blood."

That's why Boyi felt the smell was unpleasant that day. It wasn't the stench of broken internal organs after a living person fell from a high altitude, but the smell of pig blood mixed with corpses.

It was summer, and even a corpse that had been dead for less than a day would decompose faster than usual.I don't know whether Ma Jian used ice to delay the decay of the corpse.

But even if this is done, the corpse will rot faster after the effect of the ice cubes is exerted, let alone falling on the bluestone slab that has been exposed to the sun for a whole day.That's why she discovered the sudden appearance of corpse spots when the corpse was removed, which further deepened her suspicion.

It's a pity that the fragrance of soft corpses in the palace is really strong, and these traces were already too numerous to count when they entered the palace to check the next day.

"But how will your lord explain the clothes fragments beyond the ninth floor? Doesn't that prove that the princess jumped from the ninth floor by herself?" You Qianniuwei still refused to give up and asked with his neck stuck.

"Actually, this is the easiest part." She sighed: "The murderer only needs to make sure that he enters the ninth floor with us, and after someone sees that the window is bolted from the inside, he will open the window first and pretend to check, and then put the Take out the clothes fragments hidden in the sleeves in advance and stick them anywhere outside the window, and then attract others to find out."

In this way, this seemingly mysterious and mysterious, miraculous suicide case was completely completed.

If it wasn't for the incident that happened in the palace later.

Speaking of this, Yu Qiansi stopped for some reason and did not continue.

In the silence formed by the sudden drop of the voice, everyone stood still in place.

Her deduction just now has completely shocked everyone.

There are still people in the civil and military affairs of the Manchu Dynasty who have never seen Yu Qiansi's judgment, and at this moment they have to admire the unparalleled intelligence of the woman in front of them.

All eyes were focused on the red dress, but Yu Qiansi didn't notice it.

She was waiting, waiting for a hope, a hope that Ma Jian might change his mind.

But Ma Jian, who was beside her, just slowly raised his head to look at her, and chuckled in a voice that only the two of them could hear: "Master Yu Pavilion, I believe in you. It's a pity, I can't see that treasured land anymore. "

Yuqian suffocated for breath, and slowly closed her eyes, her chest was tight for a while, and she didn't care whether this subtle abnormality would be noticed by interested people.

The next moment, Ma Jian's majestic voice rose suddenly, diverting everyone's attention.

"Yes, I did all of this. Master Yu really deserves his reputation. I used my position to inspect the palace and killed the princess. Everything is exactly as you said. I used the inspection mistakes to lay everything the day before. key to the floor, and pushed the body down the next day in full view."

He deserved to be light, as if he was talking about the bowl of white porridge he had this morning, and it didn't matter.

Those colleagues couldn't believe it, and said angrily: "Impossible! How could it be you, how could you."

Ma Jian showed just the right amount of sadness and anger, and fixedly looked at the Northern Qi envoy.

Those envoys were watching the excitement and were thinking about how to use this matter to find more benefits in the next negotiation. Seeing this ghost-like look in their eyes, their hearts skipped a beat, secretly feeling that something was wrong. But also confused.

"The Badan tribe in the Northern Qi Dynasty kidnapped all my relatives and threatened me with the orders of my parents and relatives to get rid of Princess Lin'an and destroy the marriage. I had to do this."

The commotion that was suppressed by Yu Qiansi by himself just now, was aroused by these words and once again roared like a wild wolf.

The controversy of the high court earlier finally found an outlet this time. The civil and military courts of the Manchu Dynasty did not care whether the matter was true or false, let alone whether there were political differences in the past, and they all pursued the victory with one word and one word.

"What! It turned out to be the secret work of Beiqi?!"

"What a thief shouting "Stop a thief! You're still clamoring all day for us to hand over an explanation!"

"My lord, we treat each other with courtesy, how can you do this? Could it be that the peace talks are fake, and the real purpose of your trip is to make a fuss about it?"

"No, you must give us an explanation! Princess Lin'an can't die in vain!"

The leading envoy did not expect things to change so suddenly.But after all, the old fox, who has been up and down in the officialdom for half his life, immediately looked for an opportunity to reply: "The so-called murderer just now can be said, it was instigated by the Badan tribe. But you should know that our country is now dominated by the Geer tribe. The peace talks in your country are also the sincerity of our Geer people! Earlier, the Badan people assassinated the new emperor and provoked the war. From my perspective in the Northern Qi Dynasty, they are also rebellious officials and traitors. Isn’t what they did just to destroy our peace talks?"

The Northern Qi Dynasty was first established by the alliance of two major tribes.

The Geer people are densely populated, while the Badan people are sparsely populated and have the most lush pastures.Although they are of the same race, they have been arguing endlessly.And Dasheng has been secretly provoking disputes between the two clans for the sake of his own border security.

A hundred years ago, the two patriarchs, known as the Second Sages of the Northern Qi Dynasty, saw the great prosperity in the south and sensed a crisis.

Dasheng has a vast territory, beautiful water and grass, and strong soldiers and horses. Why do they just stare at the grassland that will be dried up by a drought at any time?

Therefore, the two saints met for peace talks, and swore an oath in front of the wolf god to jointly establish a new country and work together to fight Dasheng. They also agreed that the emperor of the Northern Qi Dynasty would take turns between the two clans.

It's a pity that after the death of the Second Saint, internal disputes gradually emerged, and the hidden conflict between the two clans broke out.

Previously, the Badan tribe had been oppressing the Geer tribe because of the large amount of money in their hands, and they even no longer abided by the covenant made by the two saints at the beginning.I didn't expect to be noticed by the Geer tribe.

The Geer tribe used all their tricks and almost wiped out the core power of the Badan tribe, and then regained the imperial power.Therefore, the new emperor proposed the idea of ​​negotiating with Dasheng for mutual trade and recuperating.

Only then did they submit the idea of ​​peace talks to Dasheng, wanting to follow Xidan's example and ask for a marriage relationship with Dasheng.

How could the civil and military of the Manchu Dynasty not know the ins and outs of these things, but just deliberately avoided talking about them.

"Hmph! You Geer people and Badan people jointly built the Northern Qi Dynasty. Who knows if you did this on purpose?"

Na Zhengshi saw that this trick was useless, so he had no choice but to grit his teeth and deny it: "Then do you have any evidence to prove that I, Bei Qi, participated in this matter? Could this murderer want to stain the innocence of our country by talking empty teeth? Who knows that he is not trying to shirk responsibility? "

The disgust in Yu Qiansi's heart surged uncontrollably again.

She really hates court disputes so much, even though she has done countless psychological training before leaving, she is still bored.

Boyi winked at Wu Yawei, and they escorted Ma Jian, who looked like a living dead, to leave.

Then he said loudly: "Since the envoy mentioned this, I have to talk about the second matter of today."

At this time, everyone suddenly recalled that the focus of today's quarrel was the fire at the Ministry of War?

Seeing that the surroundings were peaceful again, Bo Yi looked back at Yu Qiansi, and gave her a peaceful look.

Yu Qiansi raised the corners of her mouth and nodded, "That's right, the next step is the case of the Ministry of War that everyone is very concerned about."

It was almost noon at this time, Wang Song interrupted: "Your Majesty should also pay attention to the health of the holy body. Since the case of the princess has been clarified, in my opinion, let's go back to the Tai Chi Hall first."

The group of people returned to the Tai Chi Hall in a mighty manner.

Although the viscera are empty, but after returning to the cool and comfortable hall from the scorching sun, they have a handle on the envoys of the Northern Qi Dynasty. All the civil and military officials in the court are full of energy, and they all walk with their heads held high, long gone. willing.

After returning to the hall and everything reset, Yu Qiansi continued.

"The first time I saw the scene after the fire at the Ministry of War, I felt weird. Those people had soot in their noses, and they were burned to death. But they lay motionless by the fire source and did not call for help. Until I heard At that time, several adults from the Ministry of War and the Ministry of Households were discussing the map and the new policy of the Ministry of Households in that room."

Hearing the word "Yu Tu", the envoys of the Northern Qi Dynasty changed their expressions slightly. It seemed that the recent incidents in Beijing that they had heard about were not groundless, but if they said it in front of their faces, could it have something to do with them?

He no longer dared to listen carefully as he did just now.
