Marriage Under the Heavens

Chapter 91: Ecstasy

Although Yan Yu guessed that Qin Jiu asked him to dig the peony flower for another purpose, he did not expect a corpse buried under the flower. There are corpses under the peony flowers in Zhu Ziqiu's other courtyard, which is really interesting.

He raised his eyes slightly, breathing the scent of peony flowers, and looked at Qin Jiu thoughtfully.

She was standing not far away from him, and he could see her delicate profile when he turned his head.

There was a small smile on the corner of her lips, and a complicated light was shining in the deep pupils. The gaze swept over the corpses, and the eyelashes flashed, revealing a sneer and ruinous look.

Sunlight leaped on her, and she was in the light and shadow. For some reason, she actually gave Yan Yu an illusion that she seemed to come from the netherworld. The red skirt was gorgeous and eye-catching, as if blooming in forgetfulness. Manzhushahua on the banks of the river.

At this moment, Yan Yu remembered Qin Jiu's nickname.

Ecstasy red!

Sure enough, it can ecstasy, not only makes people lose their souls, but also makes people lose their lives.

"Master, are we going to report the crime?" a guard asked.

Yan Yu smiled at Qin Jiu Qingguo Qingcheng, the dark pupils reflected the layers of halo in the sunlight, and they were fascinating, "Jiuye, what do you think? Do you want to report to the Yin Yamen of the capital?"

Qin Jiu squinted and said with a smile: "Naturally, we are going to report the crime, but I'm afraid it will not be our turn." She smiled and looked towards the moon gate of the garden.

I saw Kangyang Wang Yanmin standing outside the crowd at some unknown time, and Li Yunxiao standing beside him. Yan Min said a few words to Li Yunxiao, and Li Yunxiao turned and left, presumably he went to report the crime.

The owner of this courtyard is Zhu Ziqiu, the Shangshu of the Criminal Ministry, who is an effective cadre of Yan Su, the king of Anling. Now that he has the opportunity to trip Zhu Ziqiu and weaken Yan Su's power, Yan Min is naturally not polite.

Yan Yu squinted. Since Qin Jiu entered Beijing, he first eliminated Liu Li, the official secretary who supported Yan Min. Today’s play is also intended to support Yan Su’s Zhu Ziqiu, so she let Yan Su and Yan Min remain silent. Fight to death and life.

At this time, Yan Yu was a little grateful that Qin Jiu was now cooperating with him, and if she was an opponent of him, she would be considered a terrible opponent.

Kangyang Wang Yanmin dispelled the crowd of onlookers, sent someone to seal off the scene, and walked towards Yan Yu.

"It turns out that Uncle Qi was here. I heard visitors say that there was a murder here, so I hurried over." Yan Min said solemnly.

Yan Yu nodded, and said lazily: "Min Er came in time, but it saves my king to report the crime."

Yan Min bowed and said, "Uncle Qi, please be a witness to Uncle Qi for today's matter."

Yan Yu lazily raised his eyebrows and said, "Well, if this king is in a good mood."

"Master, do you need this peony?" The guard came over with the red peony.

Yan Min looked at the red peony with disgust and waved his hand: "Does this still have to be asked? A good peony is buried under such a bad thing, where would Seventh Uncle want it?"

Yan Yu raised his eyebrows disapprovingly, and circled the red peony a few times. He stretched his fingers across the charming petals of a red peony, and smiled: "Such a beautiful flower, even if it gets a little bit bad, bring it back. Fuzhong."

Qin Jiu was surprised.

Originally, she thought that if she found the corpse, Yan Yu would not want this peony anymore. She planned to send someone to destroy the peony when there were too many people paying attention. Unexpectedly, Yan Yu didn't mind at all. If taken away by Yan Yu, it is better than staying here. If Yan Su came over and found out the mystery of this peony flower, he would definitely use it as evidence, saying that all this was designed by others to frame Zhu Ziqiu.

She smiled faintly, and said to Yan Yu: "As King Yan, how can you care about this."

"I believe Jiuye doesn't care, anyway, this flower is given to Wanxiang, she will definitely not want it. Why not give this flower to Jiuye, this peony is a perfect match for Jiuye." Yan Yu said and died. People carried the peony plant out of Zhu Ziqiu's other courtyard and put it on Qin Jiu's carriage parked outside the door.

Cherries and lychees looked sadly at the peony, which accounted for half of the carriage.

Qin Jiu smiled and got into the carriage, and a few big red peonies bloomed in front of her, and the cruel and rich fragrance filled the carriage. She stretched out her finger to pinch off a peony flower, and played with it in her hand and said, "It's really beautiful, thank you, Lord Yan."

"Jiuye is polite." Yan Yu smiled with his hands behind him.

Qin Jiu greeted the durian and got into the carriage and waved goodbye to Yan Yu.

The carriage reeled and when it got farther and farther from Zhu Ziqiu's other courtyard, Qin Jiu took a porcelain bottle from his sleeve and sprinkled the potion inside on the root of the peony.

After a short while, the horse-drawn carriage heard the sound of horse hooves.

Durian lifted the curtains and saw several Jin Wuwei riding over from the front on fast horses. When he reached Qin Jiu's carriage, he lined up and blocked the way. The knight at the head was Xie Dichen, the commander of Jin Wuwei. He pulled the reins, controlled the horse and walked to the carriage, and said loudly: "I heard that Jiuye came out of Lord Zhu’s other courtyard and got a rare plant there. The red peony flowers in China are said to be very large, and the sage heard it very strange. The special officer sent the red peony to the palace to let the sage take a look."

Qin Jiu sneered when he heard the words, and habitually narrowed his eyes.

As expected, Yan Su knew that the crux of the matter was the peony flower as soon as he heard that there was an accident. He immediately sent Xie Dichen over, but it was a pity that he was a step late.

This peony flower was watered with a kind of potion by Qin Jiu's people. That's why the flower blooms so strangely, and it attracts people to watch, so that people can dig the flower and find the corpse.

If Yan Su had obtained this peony, finding out that it had been watered with the potion would surely make Qing Emperor suspicious and believe that the corpse of Zhu Ziqiu's courtyard was framed.

"Master Xie's news really works well!" Qin Jiu squinted and smiled.

Her gaze lingered on the red peony, and she saw the peony flower that she had poured the potion again. The flowers and leaves were withering at a speed visible to the naked eye.

"It's just that Master Xie is a step late. This peony flower has started to wilt since it was removed, and now it has withered." After Qin Jiu said, he ordered Loquat to open the front curtain of the carriage. I'm about to let them throw it away."

When the car curtain opened, Qin Jiu saw Xie Dichen right away, staring at the withered peony in her carriage, and his face was dull.

This case of "Death under the Peony Flower" was discovered because the discoverer was a pivotal figure in the DPRK, and because there were many witnesses, the more important reason was that the location of discovery was Zhu Ziqiu's other courtyard, so the court attached great importance to it. Listed as the first major case, Emperor Qing ordered Yin Menghuai of the capital to solve the case within one month.

The case was discovered in Zhu Ziqiu's hospital, and Zhu Ziqiu was undoubtedly the suspect. He, the Shangshu of the Criminal Department, was the boss of Yin Menghuai of the capital, so Meng Huai could not try it at all. If it is usual, Emperor Qing will send Yan Su, Wang of Anling, to assist in the trial, but Emperor Qing knows the relationship between Yan Su and Zhu Ziqiu, so he will naturally not be sent. Of course, Yan Min cannot be sent, because sending him would be unfair.

In the end, the task of assisting Meng Huai in solving the case fell on Yan Yu, Yan Yuheng and Durian.

Sending Yan Yu away was unexpected. Although he was used to wandering around and never cared about the affairs of the dynasty, because this case required the royal family to oppose the battle, sending him was just a display. It's a bit surprising to send durians, but after thinking about it, it is not difficult to guess what Qing Emperor meant. Durian is now married to Shang Chuchu, the third official group of Yunshao Country, and Emperor Qing is bound to give him a reward. Sending him to the Criminal Ministry to solve the case is a test for him.

The case was heard publicly five days later, and ten days later, the case became clear.

In Zhu Ziqiu's other courtyard, there was not only an old housekeeper guarding the door, but also the old housekeeper's son.

Meng Huai took these two people to the court, and after trial, it was quickly found out from these two people that Zhu Ziqiu would indeed live here for a period of a year, but they never saw him bring outsiders in. So they don't know who the deceased is.

After an autopsy, it was found that the deceased were all male juveniles, all of them died of abuse.

Durian felt that if Zhu Ziqiu killed several people, it was obviously not accidental, but premeditated. Maybe there would be a secret room. He ordered someone to dig the other courtyard three feet away, and as expected, he finally found a secret room.

From this secret room, I found many various instruments of torture that were only used in the trial of cases, and those instruments of torture were stained with dim blood. These instruments of torture here are not tools for execution, but tools for torture.

It turns out that Zhu Ziqiu has a secret hobby, that is, male **** and sadistic. No one knew about this matter except for his confidant. Over the years, he maintained an image of integrity and did not dare to act rashly. However, the more suppressed this desire, the stronger. In the end, he was bold enough to secretly send someone out to buy the young man and raise him in the secret room of another courtyard.

Afterwards, Zhu Ziqiu was afraid that the incident would be revealed, so he killed these young people and buried them in the back garden.

Zhu Ziqiu's work was extremely secretive, and even the old housekeeper and his son who guarded the other yard here did not know it.

Qin Jiu knew about this, but Lan She sent someone to inquire about it.

One of Zhu Ziqiu's confidantes once showed his breath after being drunk in Wuyou. Since then, Lan She has secretly started to pay attention to Zhu Ziqiu. After more than a year of unannounced investigations, he found out that Zhu Ziqiu had done this evil.

With the help of peony flowers, Qin Jiu revealed the matter.

That red peony was also caused by Qin Jiu secretly pouring medicine on the root of the flower to make it bloom abnormally.

After the case became clear, Zhu Ziqiu was sent to the jail, and the seat of Shangshu of the Criminal Ministry was vacated. However, Yan Su lost the power of the Criminal Ministry.
