If You Are the One, the prince is too evil

Chapter 50 Checking the Cause of Death
"Did my son sleep well last night?" When such a thing happened in the Prime Minister's Mansion, no one could be in a good mood, and Mr. Lin Xiangye was quite amiable.

"It's pretty good. If Xiao Nuyuan doesn't say anything today, my daughter doesn't even know that such a big thing happened in the Prime Minister's Mansion. She really slept so hard that she's afraid now." Lin Feiluo seemed to be terrified.

Mr. Xiang nodded, and Mrs. Xiangfu's voice suddenly became sharp, "Luo'er, girl Cuiping said last night that you were with Luo Cheng, why was he the only one who died? Where did you go? What did you see?"

Mrs. Xiangfu's questioning of the teacher was somewhat out of Lin Feiluo's surprise. Didn't she know that if this matter came out, she would be too much to eat? Could it be that she put all her eggs in one basket to destroy her reputation and did not hesitate to do anything? Injure the enemy eight hundred and self-injure one thousand.

Lin Feiluo came to a conclusion while turning her head, pretending to be confused can't be wrong.

This Mrs. Xiangfu is really anxious now, she actually said such words, as if she was asking Lin Feiluo why Gu Luocheng died, are you okay?Can't wait to tear my face apart.

Xiangye was furious, with a cold light in his eyes, "Shen Suzhen! Does a mother talk to her daughter like this? You can believe a girl who ruined her master's reputation, you are crazy, there are so many servants! Your Where are the rules of Mrs. Xiangfu? You just hope that your daughter will have an accident, aren't you really a good mother!"

Only when Xiangye called Mrs. Xiangfu by name and surname did he say that he was really angry.

Lin Feiluo lowered her head and was secretly happy that she didn't need to speak by herself. Mrs. Xiangfu seemed to be completely irritated, and she ignored it. Just as she was about to speak, there was a loud cry, "My son, what's wrong with you, this is, How can you tell your mother to live!"

Lin Feiluo looked for his reputation, and a large group of people came in this direction.

At a glance, Lin Feiluo was stunned for a moment. She didn't expect that the crown prince Helian Qingzhuo would also come. He was already conspicuous, and with his slender and tall figure, he stood out from the crowd. strangeness.

The corner of Lin Feiluo's mouth twitched into a sneer. She didn't expect to alarm His Royal Highness. Gu Luocheng has a lot of face. Considering that he has a sister who is a concubine and a queen who is a cousin, he can understand.

The Prime Minister greeted him with strides, and bowed to salute, "My minister sees His Royal Highness the Crown Prince."

Lin Feiluo and other female servants quickly knelt down to salute, "I have seen His Royal Highness the Crown Prince."

"Excuse me, Mr. Xiang, you all get up!" Helian Qingming said harmoniously, and glanced at Lin Feiluo involuntarily. She was wearing a long light blue dress today, with her head bowed, showing her small pointed chin With a dewy fair neck, thinking of the song she sang stunningly in the palace, an inexplicable emotion suddenly surged in his heart, but he tried his best to throw it aside. Now he is here to handle the case and cannot be distracted.

"Xu Hong, the Shaoqing of Dali Temple, visited the Xiangye." Xu Hong greeted the Xiangye. He could be in his 40s and looked gentle.

"Your Majesty Xu, don't be too polite." Master Lin helped Xu Hong up.

The ceremony is being held here, while the white cloth covering the corpse has been lifted one by one by a lady with disheveled hair, crying loudly, "My son, where are you? What do you call mother? My son!"

A 50-year-old man standing next to him was also full of sadness. It was Gu Huaiyong, the Minister of the Ministry of Officials. , my thoughts are a little wandering.

Mrs. Xiangfu approached, her voice was also mournful, "My condolences to elder sister, Luo Cheng is still inside, you must take care of yourself."

"Inside?" The woman, Shen Sumei, Gu Luocheng's mother, firmly grasped Mrs. Xiangfu's arm, her eyes were almost crazy.

Mrs. Xiangfu felt a sharp pain in her arm, and tried her best to tolerate it, "Sister, Luo Cheng is still in the ancestral hall, please calm down first, let Master Xu find someone to do an autopsy, so that the murderer who killed Luo Cheng can be found and avenged for him, you calm down."

"My son, my poor son." Shen Sumei pushed Mrs. Xiangfu away and stumbled into the ancestral hall, but when she reached the door, she was stopped by the servants of Xiangfu.

"You are rebellious, rebellious, dare to stop Mrs. Ben." Shen Sumei was almost insane, and the servants did not dare to stop, so they could only call, "Master."

Lin Xiangye frowned, Helian Qingzhuo's eyes turned cold, and he said angrily, "Master Gu, my father asked me to take full responsibility for this matter. In order to find out the murderer who killed Master Gu as soon as possible, I advise you to be optimistic about your wife. Once the scene is destroyed , who can afford to lose the clues.”

Gu Huaiyong closed his eyes, trembling his lips and said, "Old minister obeys." Then he rushed to Gu Shanling and said, "Shan'er, look at your mother, go and see your brother first as a father, and let him go outside later."

"It's Daddy." Gu Shanling supported her mother, and burst into tears in an instant, "Mother, brother will definitely not die in vain, don't worry, don't cry, what if you cry badly?"

Shen Sumei seemed to be numb, her body was crumbling, as if she had turned into a puppet.

Helian Qingzhuo, Lin Shangde, Gu Huaiyong, Master Xu, the Shaoqing of Dali Temple, and Wu Zuo walked into the ancestral hall together. At a glance, several people who had never seen the scene gasped. It was really not an ordinary tragedy. .

Gu Huaiyong burst into tears on the spot, weeping uncontrollably, "My son Luo Cheng, you died a terrible death!"

Xu Hong and Wu Zuo put Gu Luocheng down. The blood on his forehead had already solidified. The fatal wound should be a sword wound on his neck. There were no other wounds elsewhere. Xu Hong sent someone to send Gu Luocheng out of the house after the investigation. I remembered the miserable cry.

The scene is clear at a glance. There is a dagger on the ground and bedding on the wooden boards, which seems to be used for vigil. There is a wooden table next to it. The silver candlesticks are poured on the ground, and the tributes on the table are intact.

It seems that this is the first scene. Gu Luocheng was killed here. The only thing Xu Hong didn't understand was why did Gu Luocheng come to Xiangfu, and what did he do in the ancestral hall?Who killed him?What is the purpose?
There is really no obvious evidence, so Xu Hong wrapped the dagger and candlestick in cloth, which are likely to be murder weapons.

After inspecting the ancestral hall, Xu Hong asked Helian Qingzhuo and the others to go out first. The corpses outside were easy to examine. They were all killed by a sword, and the wounds were exactly the same as those of Gu Luocheng. They were all cut throats with a sword, which seemed to come from one person's hand.

Helian Qingzhuo's eyes were gloomy, and his face was full of gloom, "Master Xu, what do you think?"

Xu Hong bowed and saluted, "His Royal Highness, I have something to ask, why don't we simply set up a court in the prime minister's mansion, after all, it is not good for some female relatives to bring them back to Dali Temple for questioning."

Helian Qingzhuo nodded, and turned to look at the Prime Minister. Lin Shangde had no objection, so he set up a few chairs in the open space of the ancestral hall in the back mountain, which can be regarded as a simple court.
