Card Room - 139. Chapter 164-165

【Chapter 164, The Roaring Times 14】

This testimony of Liu Qiao made Yu Hanjiang immediately alert. He asked Long Sen to guard the door to prevent people from approaching. He brought Liu Qiao to the side and asked in a low voice: “The fourth lady usually uses white veil to cover her face, which makes it easy to get caught. Pretend, are you sure that the person you saw is Miss Four?”

“Confirm. There is a very small red mole above Miss Fourth’s right brow bone. I suspected that she wore an invisibility cloak and went to see it. That person was Miss Fourth Qi Yiwei. Her dress and voice were the same as Miss Fourth. The same.” Liu Qiao said confidently.

“Did you see the person who had a private meeting with Miss Fourth?” Yu Hanjiang asked.

“I see, he must be a rich young master. He is very particular about dressing. He also gave Miss No. 4 a round jade pendant. Although I don’t understand jade, the jade pendant is crystal clear. It should be very valuable.” Liu As he recalled carefully, Qiao said, “In ancient times, giving jade pendants meant to be sentimental, right?”

“According to the custom in Jiangzhou, it is true that a man gives a jade pendant to a woman,” said Lao Mo.

Yu Hanjiang looked back at Xiao Lou, just to meet his gaze when he raised his head from the table, and the two thought of a possibility at the same time.

Xiao Lou asked: “Is the rich young master wearing a dark blue long shirt with black boots embroidered with silver threads on his feet, and his hair tied up by a blue hair band. He has very white skin and still wears it on his hands. An emerald ring?”

Liu Qiao was taken aback, and said, “That’s right, all the details are correct.”

Lao Mo returned to his senses and exclaimed, “Isn’t that the eldest master of the Lin family——Lin Shaobo?”

Yu Hanjiang hugged his arms thoughtfully: “I remember that during the time when the prince was assassinated, Lin Shaobo was not there at all.” He turned his gaze to Xiao Lou again and asked, “How long has Shaoye Lin been away?”

During the dinner, Yu Hanjiang kept staring at the movements of the guests on the left, while Xiao Lou was in charge of observing the right.

Lin Shaobo was sitting on the right, at the same table as Shao Qingge.

Xiao Lou is very careful, so he noticed when Lin Shaobo got up and left.

When asked by Team Yu, he said in detail: “When Ye Qi came out, Lin Shaobo made an excuse to go to the toilet and leave. Ye Qi played the piano and five women danced swords. The performance lasted about 10 minutes. The assassin suddenly assassinated the prince. , The prince fought with the assassin, the assassin failed to escape, and the maid came to report… all this time added up to about 20 minutes.”

Yu Hanjiang said: “In other words, Lin Shaobo disappeared for 20 minutes. This long time is enough for him to go to the backyard to hang the young lady from a tree and fake the scene of the suicide.”

Xiao Lou looked at Liu Qiao and asked, “What time did you see Miss Si and Lin Shaobo dating?”

In ancient times, there were no watches, and Liu Qiao could not clearly determine the time. She speculated based on the position of the sun in the sky: “It should be around five o’clock in the evening. At that time, the sun hadn’t set, and there was a smell from the kitchen. They were preparing dinner.”

Xiao Lou rubbed his chin and analyzed: “The time of Missy’s death is six o’clock. The time of Master Lin’s appearance in the backyard is five o’clock, and the time of leaving the banquet is eight o’clock. Doesn’t it match Missy’s death time?”

Yu Hanjiang said: “There is a possibility that if the eldest lady was murdered because she witnessed the rape/affair between her fiancé and her younger sister, then Master Lin and Miss Fourth could collude and poison her diet in advance. Miss six o’clock. When I was eating snacks in the room, I accidentally ate toxins and was poisoned to death. At about 8 o’clock, Master Lin again excused to leave the table, went back to the backyard and hung her from a tree, disguising her as if she had committed suicide by hanging. It fits perfectly.”

Lin Shaobo has time and motivation to commit the crime.

If the private meeting between him and Miss Si was discovered by the eldest lady, he did have the motive to kill others and disguise the scene of the crime as suicide. Can be refunded. At this time, Lin Shaobo could find a way to let the prince marry the fourth young lady to him.

In ancient times, older sisters could not think of committing suicide, and it was not uncommon for younger sisters to marry on their behalf.

This is the best of both worlds.

After listening to Yu Hanjiang’s analysis, everyone felt that it was very likely that Lin Shaobo and Miss Si would join hands to kill Miss Miss.

However, the secret room of Hearts often reverses, and pure reasoning cannot be finalized. Yu Hanjiang will not easily conclude until he finds definite evidence-this is only a possibility, and there may be other possibilities.

Yu Hanjiang looked at Liu Qiao: “You have been very close to Miss Fourth these days. From your perspective, what kind of person is Miss Fourth?”

Liu Qiao said: “The fourth Miss Qi Yiwei has a personality similar to that of her mother, Mrs. Han. They are both gentle and considerate. They speak softly and love to laugh. I have never seen her angry.”

Xiao Lou thought for a while, and said, “She knows how to heal, so she can naturally dispense medicines that are enough to poison people to death, right?”

Liu Qiao suddenly thought of something and said: “By the way, she invited me to the palace today because she was unwell recently. She asked me to bring some medicinal materials for her nursing care. Among them, there are several medicines. According to the records in Master’s medical books, Excessive doses can become fatal and highly toxic.”

Xiao Lou said, “Perhaps, she secretly added these medicines to the lady’s diet or tea?”

At present, all the evidence points to Miss Si and Master Lin.

Yu Hanjiang said straightforwardly: “Liu Qiao, you first go to the prefectural prison to meet with President Shao. I will ask someone to ask Miss Fourth for an interview later.”

Liu Qiao nodded, went out through the back door, and soon disappeared into the night.

Long Sen went out and took a look. The three girls in the hall next to him had already summoned everyone in the palace in accordance with the instructions of the prince.

Madam Qing has been cleaning up in the yard this afternoon. Several of her servants can testify to this.

Mrs. Qing said bluntly: “My family accidentally cut a tree just like yesterday when practicing martial arts, and it made a mess in the yard, with mud and leaves everywhere. I have been staring at the maids to clean up my ears this afternoon. Fengge, until dinner time, the prince sent someone to spread the word, and I changed my clothes and went to the banquet.”

Throughout the banquet, she stayed with the prince and did not leave.

The young man who passed the message also confirmed what Mrs. Qing said, saying that when he went to listen to the wind pavilion, a group of people were indeed cleaning the yard.

Yu Hanjiang called the most favored Madam Han over again

Mrs. Han said softly: “I have been resting in Hongmeiyuan in the afternoon. Recently, I was weak and sleepy in the afternoon. I slept until the front yard came to talk to me and then I woke up to wash, change my clothes and go to the Prince’s birthday dinner.”

Yu Hanjiang said, “Can anyone prove that the lady slept in the room all afternoon?”

Madam Han frowned for a while and said, “I slept in the inner room, because I was drowsy when I slept, and I often wake up and want to drink water, so my two maids, Xiaoxue and Xiaoshuang, have been in the outhouse all the time. Waiting, they can prove that I haven’t been out all afternoon.”

Yu Hanjiang called the two maids to ask separately.

Xiaoxue said that Madam was unwell recently and she would go to bed every afternoon. Today is no exception. After lunch, she rested and woke up three times in a daze. It was not until dinner time that someone in the front yard sent a message, and she woke Madam and gave it to Madam Dress up.

Xiaoshuang’s testimony was consistent with that of her companions. She added that her wife has always had no appetite recently. She only ate a small bowl of porridge for a meal. When she woke up today, she looked pale and sweated constantly on her forehead. You can’t let the guests attend the dinner party. Seeing that she was ill, the two maids also applied a lot of rouge on her purposely, drawing her eyebrows and grooming carefully to improve her complexion.

Both ladies have perfect alibi.

In comparison, Mrs. Qing’s testimony is more credible, because the tree in her yard was indeed cut down by the third lady, and other maids passing by can hear the movement of cleaning the yard, and the servant who passed the message saw her with his own eyes. Sit in the yard and direct.

Madam Han, only the maid testified.

This Xiaoxue and Xiaoshuang saw that they were personal servants who followed her marriage to the palace. These ancient servants were usually extremely loyal to their masters. Some servants were even willing to die for their masters. Therefore, perjury at the request of the master was also Very common.

Madam Han’s testimony cannot be 100% certain, but her body cannot deceive anyone.

Xiao Lou is a medical student, and he can always tell if he is really sick or pretending to be sick. Madam Han’s illness is quite serious. Even with makeup on her face and improved complexion, she still looks very depressed. Xiao Lou observed her nails carefully, and the half-moon shape at the roots of her fingernails had almost faded away. The maid said that she had only eaten a bowl of porridge for each meal recently, which was obviously caused by weak intestines and stomach and long-term malnutrition.

She may have a gastrointestinal disease and severely decreased appetite. With her current physical condition, it is impossible to have the strength to hug the eldest lady to a tree and hang herself…Looking at her fragile appearance, she has some difficulty even hanging a white silk on the tree.

Xiao Lou told Yu Hanjiang of his conclusion: “Mrs. Han is not pretending to be sick, she is indeed in poor health.”

Yu Hanjiang stroked his chin: “It seems that the focus is still on the young ladies.”

At this moment, there was a knock on the door, and Long Sen whispered to report: “It’s the Ninth Princess.”

Yu Hanjiang raised her eyebrows: “What is she doing here?”

Xiao Lou smiled and said, “Let her come in. I remember she said that she had passed a letter with Missy before, maybe she would have a clue.”

Seeing that Xiao Lou didn’t mind, Yu Hanjiang relaxed and motioned for Long Sen to open the door.

The nine princesses were dressed in men’s clothes and brought Qu Wanyue into the house together. She said straightforwardly: “I know who the murderer is!”

Yu Hanjiang was quite surprised: “Oh? What did the princess say?”

The nine princesses looked angrily: “It must be Qi Yiwei who did it! Ayao passed a letter with me before and mentioned one thing in the letter. You can see for yourself, Master Yu!”

She took out a letter from her arms and handed it to Yu Hanjiang.

Yu Hanjiang took the letter and walked to Xiao Lou’s side. Xiao Lou also leaned his head and looked at it together. The lady’s hand-painted calligraphy was written squarely and squarely, as if it were printed, and the letter said–

“Nine Princesses:

See Xin An good.

My wedding date with Young Master Lin’s family is scheduled for the fifteenth of next month.

Rumor has it that the young master of the Lin family spends all day drinking and drinking in the brothel, and befriends many brothel women in Jiangzhou. His mother said that three wives and four concubines are very common for men. After marriage, he can change his past mistakes, and I don’t mind his temporary indulgence. Moreover, I can only obey the orders of my parents and the words of the matchmaker in matters of marriage.

Of course, a few days ago, I went outside the city to offer incense, and accidentally ran into Master Lin and his younger sister in the mountains. The little girl gave a blue handkerchief embroidered by herself to Master Lin, who looked gentle and said to the little girl that she was his love in this life, and the person he wanted to marry was Yiwei, not Yiyao.

In recent days, I have been tortured inside and I don’t know how to deal with it.

I want to tell my mother about this, but my mother and Mrs. Han have always been at odds, and once the matter becomes serious, I am afraid it will not end.

The nine princesses and I have known each other since I was a child, and they are my father’s favorite imperial sister. If you come forward, things may turn for the better.

I have only met Master Lin twice and have no feelings at all. Since he is so obsessed with the four sisters, I want to fulfill them. However, Jiangzhou has already rumored that I have a marriage contract with Young Master Lin, and it is difficult for the fourth sister to marry directly to Lin Mansion.

In order to get the best of both worlds, I decided to become a monk.

As long as I am a nun, the marriage contract between the Lin family and the palace does not need to be terminated, and the fourth sister can replace me and marry the Lin family in a fair way.

I grew up in Qingyou Ancient Temple since I was a child. It is better to stay with the ancient Buddha of the blue lantern for the end of his life.

My father would not agree with me to become a monk, and I hope the nine princesses can persuade me to help me realize this wish.

Yi Yao autographed. ”

******

【Chapter 165, Beacon 15】

After reading the letter, Xiao Lou was in a mixed mood.

Sure enough, his first feeling was correct. This eldest lady was indeed indifferent and indifferent to the world. She had already seen through the world and decided to become a monk, so she was indifferent to the young master Lin’s lingering in the brothel, and she was indifferent to the father’s birthday party.

This afternoon, she was still knocking on wooden fish and chanting scriptures in the Buddhist hall. Probably in her opinion, the companionship of the ancient Buddha with a green lantern for a lifetime is her best destination. It’s a pity that she didn’t achieve her wish-she intended to fulfill others, but others might not have this kindness.

After reading the letter, Yu Hanjiang frowned, “Princess Nine, how is your relationship with Miss Yi Yao?”

The nine princesses said: “I am her imperial aunt in terms of generation, but I am only four years older than her. She has been in poor health since she was a child and fell ill again after she was taken home at the age of ten. She was sent to Kyoto for treatment for a while. She lived in my princess mansion that year, so she was familiar with me, but it was the first time she wrote to me.”

The princess paused, and then said: “I rushed to Jiangzhou this time because of this incident.” At this point, she couldn’t help but look away.

There were countless prisoners that Yu Hanjiang had interrogated, and it was natural to see that her expression was abnormal. This princess not only has terrible acting skills, but also dressed up badly when she pretends to be a man. A discerning person sees that she is a woman, and she can’t compare with Qu Wanyue’s menswear.

Yu Hanjiang then asked: “After the princess came to the palace, did you ever meet the eldest lady?”

The nine princess shook her head: “No, I went straight to the side hall to wait for the dinner to begin. I didn’t expect that Yi Yao would be murdered.” She frowned and said angrily: “Miss Fourth must have done it! She and Young Master Lin did it. Her personal affair was revealed, maybe she wanted to kill A Yao to kill her!”

Seeing the princess’ emotions, Yu Hanjiang immediately interrupted her: “There is no direct evidence that Miss No. 4 is the murderer. The princess should please come back first. We will definitely investigate this case.”

The nine princesses seriously urged: “You must catch the murderer, and you can’t let A Yao die in vain!”

Yu Hanjiang said: “Don’t worry.”

When the nine princesses turned to leave, Yu Hanjiang suddenly said, “The maid next to the princess, please stay. I have something to ask her.”

The Ninth Princess asked in confusion: “Ask her what to do?! Didn’t I give you all the letters? Can I still lie?”

Yu Hanjiang said indifferently: “Question to the maid and the guard, this is a necessary step for investigating the case, and the princess is also requested to cooperate.”

The Ninth Princess nodded, leaned to Qu Wanyue’s ear, and lowered her voice: “Don’t say anything that shouldn’t be said.”

Qu Wanyue smiled: “Princess rest assured.” I will definitely say.

The nine princesses left without worry.

Long Sen closed the door, looked at his wife dressed in menswear with a complicated expression, and whispered: “You look handsome when you are dressed as a man?”

Qu Wanyue looked at him with a smile, and said jokingly: “Then I will always dress up as a man, and how about wearing a suit for the wedding?”

Long Sen rubbed his nose in a whisper: “I don’t want it anymore…”

Qu Wanyue walked in front of Yu Hanjiang and Xiao Lou, and said seriously: “Team Yu, the nine princesses are lying.”

Yu Hanjiang nodded: “I can see that she came to Jiangzhou this time not just because of Missy’s business, right?”

Qu Wanyue said: “She ran away from Kyoto in a hurry, actually because the emperor wanted her to marry her.”

Xiao Lou said with interest: “Oh? What’s the specific situation?”

Qu Wanyue explained in detail: “The nine princesses are the youngest daughter of the first emperor. The first emperor came to get a daughter. She was extremely fond of her and developed her arrogant and arrogant character. The first emperor once referred her to marriage. Master Yu should be clear. Later, the emperor died and the new emperor took the throne. Today, your majesty has a headache for this little aunt and wants her to marry early. This time, she has found a general for her. Before your Majesty spoke, he took me and ran away.”

Yu Hanjiang said clearly: “It seems that she escaped from marriage to Jiangzhou?”

Qu Wanyue nodded: “By the way, deal with the eldest lady’s affairs.”

Xiao Lou pondered for a moment, and then asked: “Teacher Qu, have you got any clues in the princess mansion?”

Qu Wanyue said: “The princess talked to me about the gossip in the palace every day. It is said that the queen who was the first emperor’s favorite was poisoned to death by Concubine Shu, and later, Concubine Ming killed Concubine Shu and the women in the harem. Fighting and fighting, when the first emperor died, he issued the imperial decree to let them be buried together. In the end, the princess said that she did not want to be born in the royal family in the next life. Pick a husband-in-law.”

Listening to Qu Wanyue’s description, Xiao Lou had a slight change in the nine princesses. She actually had no feelings for Yu Hanjiang, but the emperor pointed out the marriage first, and Yu Hanjiang declined, so she couldn’t make ends meet.

The letter brought by Qu Wanyue and the Nine Princesses pointed the finger at Miss Si and Lin Shaobo.

After careful analysis, Yu Hanjiang called the servants of the palace over for questioning.

The maid, the servant, the back kitchen, none of them were missed.

Yu Hanjiang asked in detail, and Xiao Lou’s transcript beside him was also very detailed.

Master Yu and his wife cooperated tacitly to handle the case together, which greatly opened the eyes of the people in the palace. After going out, they all talked: “I have never seen a woman handle a case with her husband!” “This Madam Yu is not easy. A post-mortem will be done!” “She is not afraid of corpses at all, she is a strange woman, no wonder Master Yu spoils her so much.”

Hearing the gossip of the people, Long Sen was really dumbfounded.

Our Professor Xiao’s major is forensic medicine. What is a corpse? He is not afraid of putting up a morgue.

Inside the house, Xiao Lou gave the compiled transcripts to Yu Hanjiang for analysis.

The following people mentioned two points:

First, Mrs. Qing, Mrs. Han, and Mrs. Yun are at odds with each other. Due to the vacancy of the concubine, the three of them usually fought openly and secretly.

Mrs. Yun has the oldest qualifications in the palace, and she also gave birth to the young master Qi Fenghua and the eldest miss Qi Yiyao, who is the most likely candidate to become the princess. Madam Qing and Madam Han have been unconvinced. Madam Qing was quick to talk and clashed with Madam Yun many times in the backyard. Madam Han also often fought for favor in front of the prince. Recently, she has only stopped getting sick.

Second, the eldest lady is very quiet, and she usually stays in the Buddhist hall, and has never had any conflicts with anyone in the palace.

From this point of view, both Madams Qing and Han have alibi to prove that although they have a deep grudge with Madam Yun, they are not at odds with Miss Yun. If it is for the position of the princess, it is necessary to kill Madam Yun instead of Miss Yun. , The suspicion of the two ladies should be eliminated.

Miss Two, Miss Three, and Miss Four have not yet interrogated.

Yu Hanjiang invited the second lady over first.

Qi Yi’an, a daughter of the royal palace, Shu’an princess canonized by the emperor himself.

Among the four girls, she was the only one who could be regarded as the four characters “Everybody’s Lady”. When Xiao Lou saw her for the first time, he felt that this girl had bright eyes and white teeth, a dignified appearance, an elegant manner, and a full aura. Referencing a princess like her to Zhao Guo can indeed hold up the scene.

Qi Yi’an was very polite to Yu Hanjiang. She said: “My marriage with the second prince Zhao Guo is set at the end of the year. Today is the birthday of my father. In order to show his sincerity, the prince Zhao sent an emissary to celebrate his father’s birthday. Zhao Guo returned one. An official from the Ministry of Etiquette explained to me some customs that need to be paid attention to on the day of the wedding banquet. I followed them in the post house where they were received, and only returned to the palace at some time.”

She paused and said: “After returning to the house, I took up a pen to write a letter. Before the letter was finished, I heard someone screaming outside. The third sister ran to me and told me that there was something wrong with my eldest sister. Let me pass.”

Yu Hanjiang looked at Long Sen: “Any messenger from the State of Zhao is visiting today?”

Long Sen nodded: “Yes, I came here in the afternoon to send a gift to the prince, but they were not convenient to attend the dinner. The second lady did follow them to the post house dedicated to the guests of Zhao Guo.”

The second lady is the princess canonized by the emperor himself. The customs of Zhao and Qi are different. She wants to marry to Zhao. There are many details that need to be paid attention to. She said that when she was at about 20 o’clock, she returned to the palace. If she was the murderer, time Too late. Moreover, she and the eldest lady did not have any grudges, and she was about to marry the second prince of Zhao Guo as the prince concubine, and she did not have any motives for committing the crime.

Yu Hanjiang said: “Princess, do you have a lot of contact with Missy?”

Qi Yi’an smiled slightly and said, “My sister often stays in the Buddhist hall to copy scriptures. I don’t like going out. I usually like to practice piano at Xiushuixuan. I don’t see her a few times a month.”

Yu Hanjiang then asked: “How is the relationship between the eldest lady and the other sisters, do you know?”

Qi Yi’an shook his head: “I don’t know. I don’t have much contact with the third and fourth sisters. The third sister is good at martial arts. She wears a sword every day and likes to run out of the palace to play. She is not close to me. The fourth sister always says Baisha hides her face, and every time she sees me, she will only call the princess and be very polite and alienated to me.” She paused, and said lightly: “I don’t know how the three of them are related, nor are they interested in knowing.”

She is the one who will be sent to Zhao Guo and her relatives. In the future, she will probably never have the chance to return to her hometown. In addition, several sisters are not born to the same mother, and these sisters are unnecessary for her.

As a prostitute, she just needs to take care of herself. It is the smartest way not to blend in with the fights of the wives of the palace.

The second lady couldn’t ask anything here, but the third lady gave Yu Hanjiang a clue——

Qi Yiru said: “When I went to the toilet in the evening, I saw Simei hurriedly passing by the rockery and turned to the direction of Hongmeiyuan. I ran to ask her what was wrong. Go back and take medicine.”

Yu Hanjiang said, “Do you have a good relationship with Miss Fourth?”

Qi Yiru nodded: “Yes, the eldest sisters in the palace hide in the Buddhist hall and knock on wooden fish, and the second sister sits in the attic of Xiushuixuan every day and plays the piano. I have no conversation with them. I usually like to practice martial arts and I accidentally fall down. , Bruises, it would be too troublesome to go to the medical clinic, the fourth sister knows medical skills, so I will look to her, and she will help me bandage the wound.”

She paused and added: “The murderer can’t be the fourth sister! She is usually weak and weak, how can she have the courage to kill?! I think she might have seen the murderer, so she ran away from the rockery in a hurry! ”

Yu Hanjiang called the key suspect Qi Yiwei over.

She still covered her face with white gauze, and she lowered her eyes timidly, not daring to look at them.

Yu Hanjiang asked directly: “Miss Si, has your eldest sister known about your affair with Young Master Lin?”

Qi Yiwei: “………………”

Xiao Lou looked helplessly at Team Yu beside him.

This straight-ball habit has not changed, and the four girls probably didn’t expect the other party to ask such a question, and their whole bodies shook with fright.

A layer of cold sweat immediately oozes out of her uncovered forehead, her fingers on her side gripped tightly, and said: “I, I don’t know what Master Yu is talking about, please don’t slander a woman’s innocence.”

Yu Hanjiang simply handed her the letter from the Ninth Princess: “Miss Si, please take a look at this.”

Qi Yiwei’s eyes widened, and after seeing the paragraph “I want to fulfill them and become a nun”, her eyes suddenly became red.

She covered her face, crying, and intermittently said: “Sister… She used to want to fulfill us… I’m sorry for her…uuuu… I’m sorry sister…”

Seeing that she couldn’t stop crying, Xiao Lou said warmly: “Miss Si, why do you use white gauze to cover your face?”

Qi Yiwei was silent for a long time before gently taking off her veil.

Her face, on the right, looks beautiful and refined, with fair and smooth skin, she is definitely a beautiful woman. However, there was a long birthmark the size of a thumb on the left cheek, destroying her appearance.

It was like a crystal clear jade with obvious cracks, which made people feel sorry.

Qi Yiwei trembled and put on a veil, and said, “My face is born like this. I don’t want to be talked about by others, so I use a white veil to cover my face. Actually, I didn’t have an affair with Young Master Lin. We knew each other before we signed a marriage contract with my sister…”

Xiao Lou took down this key with his notes, and then said: “You and Young Master Lin have promised each other for a lifetime?”

Qi Yiwei nodded: “One year ago, on the mountain outside Jiangzhou City, Young Master Lin accidentally broke his leg. I happened to save him when I was passing by. He saw me, he didn’t mind my ugliness and said he wanted to marry me… …He treats me sincerely, and I am also in love with him at first sight. We… often excuse to go outside the city and meet in private.”

“A few months later, the Lin family carried the betrothal gift as a matchmaker. I was happy at the time and thought he was here to propose a marriage with me. As a result, the final decision was actually his marriage to the eldest sister!”

Speaking of this, Qi Yiwei’s nails could not help but pierce deeply into her palm, and the shock and grievance at the time were beyond words.

Yu Hanjiang said coldly: “After you signed the marriage contract, you didn’t dare to resist your parents’ orders, so you kept meeting in private meetings? You secretly met in the backyard today. Didn’t you happen to be bumped into by the lady?”

Qi Yiwei’s body trembled slightly, and there was no reply. It was obviously said by Yu Hanjiang.

Yu Hanjiang’s sharp gaze swept straight at the piece of jade on her waist: “The jade pendant, is it from Young Master Lin?”

Qi Yiwei didn’t expect even this matter to be said, she was stunned, her face instantly became extremely pale.

Yu Hanjiang said lightly: “Let’s talk about it, how did you and Young Master Lin conspired to kill the eldest lady?”

Qi Yiwei widened her eyes and hurriedly shook her head: “It’s not me…I didn’t kill the big sister! After being seen by the big sister, I ran away in a hurry. I really don’t know what happened to her!”

Yu Hanjiang asked sharply: “You ran away in a hurry, what about Master Lin?”

“Master Lin?” Qi Yiwei stunned suddenly. Obviously, she hurriedly fled back to Hongmeiyuan and ran into Miss San on the road. She said that she was in poor health and wanted to go back to take medicine. She didn’t know where Master Lin had gone.

Yu Hanjiang asked Long Sen: “Have you found Master Lin?”

Long Sen shook his head: “I asked all the guards. No trace of Master Lin was found in the courtyard of the palace, nor was he found among the guests who went out from the front door of the palace. It was at the back door that some tiles on the wall were broken. He might I slipped through the back door and climbed the wall.”

Yu Hanjiang said coldly, “Get Lin Shaobo immediately!”

※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※

I have received a lot of birthday wishes, and the local tyrants who threw mines, thank you all, yeah, love you!

This case is not that simple. Continue tomorrow!
