The Crown Prince is Actually a Princess!

Chapter 27: :Stretching and peeling cocoon

According to Yuan Qiu's confession, she never went to the sleeping hall after returning to the small dining room to clean up last night. It was Yuan Fang who had been with Zhao Lai all the time.

Murongci and Shen Zhiyan asked the two court ladies again, and their confessions were similar to those of Yuan Qiu and Yuan Fang.

After that, they came to the small dining room.

The small dining room is on the east side of the main hall. There are not many pots and pans, but they are neatly arranged and spotlessly clean.

Just taking a routine look, they didn't hope to find any clues in the small dining room.

Sure enough, nothing was achieved.

Then they went to the side hall and sent the palace occupants to the outside of the hall. Shen Zhiyan inspected Zhao Lai in detail.

Murongci watched from the side. As his inspection process, scenes of Zhao Bi's life flashed in her mind, as if she was on the scene and witnessed the whole process with her own eyes...

Yuan Qiu sent almond butter...Yuanfang sent almond butter to the sleeping hall...Zhao Bin ate almond butter...Zhao Bin went to bed without clothes...Zhao Bin was taken to the scene of the crime...Zhao Bin was hung on a Xinyi tree and struggled ...

Scenes, hazy and blurred.

"Zhao 嫔 did hang himself, and there were no other injuries on his body."

Shen Zhiyan checked from head to toe, and nothing else except the deep purple streak on the neck and the blood stain on the nail buckle.

The two left the Jingfu Hall, Murongci thought while walking: "Why did Zhao Bi's nail break? If she hangs herself, she won't pull the rope when she is dying."

He nodded in agreement, "This is a suspicious point. Secondly, why did Zhao Bi commit suicide and hang herself? If she really wanted to commit suicide, why did she eat almond cheese last night? Third, if Zhao Bi really wanted to hang herself, she didn't have to If you run so far, you can hang yourself in the Jingfu Hall."

"If Zhao Bian was killed by someone else, I think it should be like this: she ate almond butter last night and fell asleep. Almond butter may have been manipulated by someone and drugged, so she is not aware of it. Personnel are at the mercy of others. In the middle of the night, the murderer sneaked into the sleeping hall, first fainted Yuan Fang, who was vigilant, and then put the unconscious Zhao Yu in palace clothes, and then carried her to the scene of the crime. Hanging on a Xinyi tree. Xu Shi's drug effect has passed. Zhao Yu woke up at the most uncomfortable time, so she was struggling to death and grabbed the rope with her hands, but soon she suffocated to death." Murong's speech was dumbfounded and frustrated. Analysis, "Zhao Bin's palace costume is the most beautiful, and he rarely wears it. Why did the murderer put her on her palace costume?"

"His Royal Highness's speculation is reasonable and should be closer to the truth." Shen Zhiyan frowned, "The almond butter, only Yuan Fang and Yuan Qiu have been in contact with, they are all suspect."

"Yuan Qiu wanted to make hands and feet in almond butter. It couldn't be easier. Yuan Fang took the almond butter and sent it to the sleeping hall. It is not impossible that he must be swift in his hands and feet in a short period of time."

"Have you noticed that there is something wrong with Yuan Qiu's confession?"

"Although Yuan Qiu is not as distraught as Yuan Fang, but Yuan Qiu's confession is not wrong. She concluded that Zhao 嫔 was killed by others, and begs us to seek justice for Zhao 嫔." Murongci recalled Yuan Qiu's confession. I don’t think there are any flaws in the appearance of the offering.

"We didn't say whether Zhao Hao was hanged or killed. Why did Yuan Qiu insist that Zhao Hao was killed? Besides, I always feel that Yuan Qiu's grief was pretended to be a performance. Although it seems that there are no flaws at all, the more flawless, the more problems there will be. It means that she had planned the confession in advance and just waited for us to inquire." Shen Zhiyan's Qingjun face was shining in the sun.

"When you said that, my palace remembered. She was obviously not as sad as Yuan Fang, but she begged us to get justice for Zhao Yu. That said, Yuan Qiu was more suspicious. But why did she do this? It was her. Killed Zhao Er?"

"If Yuanqiu is armed with martial arts, one person is enough to kill Zhao Bian, otherwise, she will not have the strength to carry Zhao Bian to the scene of the crime and hang Zhao Bian from the Xinyi tree."

"Yuan Qiu doesn't look like she is armed with martial arts. There is a possibility that she has been bought by someone and is only responsible for drugging."

"Yuan Qiu and the murderer joined forces outside and conspired to kill Zhao Bian. The murderer was able to carry Zhao Bun out of the Jingfu Hall without disturbing the palace and guards. It shows that he is quite familiar with the inner courtyard of the harem. The harem is like no one. However, why did the murderer kill Zhao Lai? Why? Does Your Highness think that Zhao Lai's death is related to recent events?"

Murong Ci's eyes condensed slightly, "Zhao Bin died suddenly, completely incompatible with that song."

Shen Zhiyan nodded again, "Judging from the current clues, Zhao Lai's death seems to be irrelevant to recent events."

They talked and walked to the East Palace. Back to the East Palace, Ruyi and Qin Ruo immediately served **** tea to drive away cold and dampness. Ruyi also changed his Royal Highness's clothes, because it was raining when I went out.

In the study, Ruyi put aside two cups of hot tea and quit and waited.

Murongci sat in front of the book case and drank half a cup of hot tea, "Yesterday the Japanese Palace went to the Chunwuyuan. The two bodies thrown in the mass graves were Bai Shuren and Mo Shuren. They were the concubines of the father. Ten years ago, he was demoted to a commoner and entered the Chunwuyuan."

Shen Zhiyan smiled appreciatively, "What did you find in Chunwuyuan?"

"On their bed, my palace found one gray hair." She put the two gray hairs trembling on the case. "One comes from the hands of the corpse and the other comes from under the quilt on the bed of the dead. My palace feels, These two gray hairs should have been left by the murderer inadvertently."

"If the hair is really left by the murderer, then the murderer is quite old, at least over fifty years old." He nodded and thought, "Is it possible that the murderer was from the Spring Wuyuan?"

"Bai Shuren and Mo Shuren died very close to the Fengtian Temple Heaven's Blood Jade. My palace felt that the people behind the scenes should have killed the Bai Shuren and Mo Shuren first, took their blood, and then laid out in the Fengtian Temple.' Heaven descending blood jade'." Murong Ci's analysis was excellent.

"This solves the problem of where the human blood in Fengtian Temple's'Heaven's Blood Jade' comes from." Shen Zhiyan said.

"His Royal Highness is raining blood, my palace feels that it should be dog blood. My palace learned that five dogs died in the city a few days ago and the blood was drained."

"It's better for us to rationalize the case from the beginning."

Shen Zhiyan sat opposite her, set aside the tea cup, picked up the wolf hair and wrote a short horizontal line on a piece of white paper, "It should be the spread of that ballad at first, and then the blood jade from the Fengtian Temple. Heaven drops blood. The jade happened at Chenshi, and the blood is human blood. It is most likely the blood of the White Shuren and the Mo Shuren. The source of the blood jade has not been found. The blood jade descended from heaven and the "Blood Jade Xian" in the ballad coincide."

Murongci added a short horizontal line next to the short horizontal line, and then said: "Then there is the blood rain under the Qingyuan Palace. It rained just at dawn that day, and several servants witnessed the flow from the eaves of the Qingyuan Palace. It's blood rain. The blood used is probably the dog blood obtained from killing five dogs in the city. However, how does the layout person know that it will rain at dawn on that day? How to accurately calculate this kind of terrifying effect This incident coincides with the "Rain Mantian" in the song."

He added a third dash, "Fish and cannibalism followed. Luohe deceased Sun Yumei had wounds on his face and limbs bitten by insects and beasts. The fatal injuries were broken viscera. The deceased and her husband Feng Ke had a good relationship after marriage. He had a pair of children, and the possibility of family killings has been ruled out. The deer who died in Xiaoyue Pool in the palace was fatally wounded like Sun Yumei. His internal organs were ruptured and died, and he was thrown into the pool by the murderer and laid out as a fish and man. Can shatter a person The viscera of the murderer shows that the murderer has deep internal strength and extraordinary martial arts. However, I still can’t think of any insect biting the faces and limbs of the two deceased.”

She then added a short horizontal line and said coldly: "This morning, the maid found Zhao Yu was hanging on the Xinyi tree beside the harem palace road. It is very likely that Zhao Yu had eaten the drugged almond butter and then became unconscious. Was killed. The murderer seemed...intentionally arranged to hang Zhao Yu, but revealed obvious flaws, which is unpredictable. Furthermore, the murderer unconsciously brought her to the scene of the crime, which can be seen. The light work is very good. But Zhao An's case does not seem to be obviously related to ballads."

A spark suddenly flashed in her mind, and she was pleasantly surprised: "The two deceased fish-eaters, Sun Yumei and Xiaolu, the murderer who shattered their internal organs had a deep inner strength, and the murderer who killed Zhao Yu was extremely skillful, and his martial arts was extraordinary. These three episodes Will the murderer be the same person?"

"The case of Zhao 嫔 should be distinguished. This may be just a coincidence." Shen Zhiyan's eyes were dark. "The murderer pointed by Tianjiang Xueyu is too old and has gray hair. Maybe it is a person in the Spring Wuyuan. If the murderer is How did the people in Chunwuyuan leave Chunwuyuan to act? Perhaps the people behind the scenes just randomly arrested the Baishuren and Moshuren of Chunwuyuan and killed them for blood. In this way, the murderers who killed Baishuren and Moshuren came and went in and out. The Chunwu Courtyard is like walking on the ground. It should be a trivial accomplishment. It is as powerful as the murderer who killed Sun Yumei and Xiaolu, and it can be matched."

"These things are complicated and complicated, and it is difficult for one person to complete them. I feel that the behind-the-scenes planners are the mastermind or the leader, and there are several subordinates."

"His Royal Highness analyzed the extreme."

"The key points that we have not cracked are as follows: blood jade is extremely rare and precious, and where it came from; how the blood rain of His Royal Highness Qingyuan was cleverly laid out; and what insect bites were the wounds on the faces and limbs of Sun Yumei and Xiaolu Yes, who is the murderer; what will happen next."

"In the final analysis, who deployed this whole game, and what attempts are they coming to the royal family, or to warn us of that person's ambitions."

Murongci and Shen Zhiyan's eyes moved away from the short horizontal lines and turned to each other, their expressions worried.

There are still so many mysteries that have not been solved, and the people behind the scenes hidden in the dark night are even ignorant. They are at a passive disadvantage, anxious, and worried.

However, they are most worried about three words:

Jade steals the country!

As long as Murong Yu thinks about it, there is nothing impossible.

Yes, the person that the ballad points to is Murong Yu!

Murongci's heart seemed to be pressed against a huge rock, which made her breathless, her small face turned pale, and her long and thick eyelashes trembled slightly.

Shen Zhiyan understood her feelings and said, "His Royal Highness, maybe things are not as bad as we thought. There is no change on the royal side. I think he also guessed the innuendo of this ballad, so he didn't dare to act rashly. At the cusp of the storm, Once he does something, he will incur infamy."
