Bring your son to chase after your wife, please go home

Chapter 51
"..."

A re-examination from the forehead to the soles of the feet showed that all the symptoms were the same as those written in the coroner's booklet, and he died of poisoning indeed.

Standing up in a little disappointment, Baili Changge shrugged, and said to Ye Hen leaning against the door: "I've finished reading, I didn't find anything."

"En." Ye Hen responded, and walked to Baili Shaoqing's room with a flick of his sleeves.

The room was tidy and clean. There was an ash stand near the window, and there were clay figurines of various shapes on the stage. Some of the clay figurines had cracks. Obviously, the clay had not been adjusted properly, and they were exposed to the sun. It was directly sunburned.Baili Changge recognized it, and the other intact ones were pinched out last night. Although they were badly pinched, it could be seen that Shaoqing was serious about pretending.

Ye Hen has been staring at the door since he came in.

Baili Changge turned around and asked him, "Did you find anything?"

"This door was originally bolted from the inside." He pointed to the mark on the edge of the rosewood door and said, "The first person who came here must have kicked the door."

Baili Changge looked over and saw that the door latch had long since disappeared, she pursed her lips slightly, and asked again, "So?"

"So during the interrogation in the side hall just now, the third lady lied." Ye Hen glanced at her.

Baili Changge played with a clay figurine in his hand, carefully recalling Wen's words just now, and suddenly felt something was wrong.

"The third lady said that when she came back from supper, she thought Shaoqing had fallen asleep, so she carried him back." She said: "Then according to what she said, Shaoqing might not have died at that time, It might just be in a coma, otherwise the third lady couldn't have missed it."

"Then, here comes the problem." Ye Hen glanced at the rosewood door and said, "If the Fourth Young Master is unconscious, how did he lock the latch? Could it be that he woke up halfway through?"

"It's not impossible!" Baili Changge silently put down the clay figurine, and said, "After all, we are only guessing about Shaoqing's coma. Maybe he really just fell asleep, and then got up to lock the door again when he got to the room."

"That's not right." Before Ye Hen could speak, Baili Changge had already realized the logical error in her deduction, and she immediately said: "If this is the case, how did the murderer escape after killing someone and then lock the door?" bolted?"

"Except for the third wife, did the fourth son have contact with anyone else before his death?" Ye Hen glanced around.

"Probably not." Baili Changge said with certainty that Fu Qingyun's frequent visits to Qiufengyuan should not be revealed, otherwise Shaoqing's pretending to be stupid would be exposed. Bailijing would definitely not be able to tolerate the Wen family anymore. Losing her husband in the early years, and losing her only son now, she must have hidden a lot of pain and grievances in her heart. If she is driven out of the Hou Mansion by Bailijing again, her life will be ruined.

"I heard that the fourth son is born stupid?" Ye Hen walked to the table, bent over to pick up a crumpled paper ball, opened it slowly and took a look before asking her casually.

"It's something that everyone in the imperial capital knows." Baili Changge tried not to meet Ye Hen's eyes, so as not to be discovered by him.

"These words are so beautiful, no matter how you look at them, they don't look like they could be written by a born stupid person." Ye Hen unfolded the paper ball completely and looked at it carefully.

Baili Changge's face changed slightly, and he immediately walked over and snatched the crumpled paper from him, only to see a few big black dots scribbled on it, without a single word on it.

Knowing that she had been fooled by Ye Hen, she snorted displeasedly.

"You want me to find out the truth and close the case as soon as possible, but you all lie one by one. What is your intention? Or are you trying to bury some secret?"

"How can it be?" Baili Changge raised his head, smiling extremely softly, "I'm afraid it will be difficult for someone who dares to play tricks under the eyes of Prince Jin to have a tomorrow?"

Seeing her radiant eyes and that pale face with a smile, Ye Hen suddenly closed his eyes uncomfortably—there was once a person who played tricks in front of him, and that person not only had tomorrow, but also occupied him. Every tomorrow, every moment, even... every breath.
