Chapter 122 Chang Yicheng Involved in the Case

"There is some truth to what you said, but it doesn't clear your suspicion, unless you can tell me who else has been in the kitchen in the past two days besides you?" Su Xuan immediately thought about it, and then continued.

Mahaney and Simawaq almost supervised each other. If one of the two did this, the other would definitely be able to detect it, unless the two were the murderers in this case and they were in front of each other. Cover each other when questioning.

But this probability is relatively small, but it is not impossible, so Su Xuan agrees with Simavag's statement on the surface, but does not clearly indicate that the suspicion of the two of them is ruled out, so Su Xuan has the next question, asking what is in the kitchen Suspicious characters appear.

"Speaking of people who enter the kitchen, they are all from the post house or our own people. The people who have entered the kitchen in the past two days, apart from the servants of Her Royal Highness, are the post house's Chang Yicheng. He entered the post house princess kitchen yesterday. He said he wanted to pay attention to the food quality of our princess, and he was afraid that Da Zhou would blame him for his poor hospitality." Simawage immediately mentioned a person to Su Xuan, and this person was Chang Yicheng, the head of the posthouse.

"You mean that Chang Yicheng has been to the small kitchen?" Su Xuan immediately asked Simawag after hearing this. He needs to get an affirmative answer from Simawage. Only when she gets an affirmative answer can she change OK to investigate further.

"That's right, it was him. When the special envoy saw him, he was quite surprised, because the people in the post house usually would not enter the small kitchen. This is the condition that our special envoy asked to give the princess safety consideration. When I was in the post house, I made an agreement with Chang Yicheng.

But just last night, when the special envoy was arranging hand-picked meals for Her Royal Highness, Chang Yicheng entered the small kitchen before us, but we hadn't started preparing meals for Her Royal Highness at that time, so we didn't think there was anything wrong at first. Mahani and I didn't take anything unusual, and continued to do our own work after Chang Yicheng left. "Simawag said with certainty.

At that time, he didn't think there was anything wrong. Now it seems that the inexplicable poison in the princess's hand must be related to this person. He also doesn't care whether those speculations that can't be verified are based on. Anyway, he can rule it out. Just suspect.

So he explained this detail in front of Su Xuan in as much detail as possible, not daring to miss any details.

"Captain Lu, bring Chang Yicheng over here!" Su Xuan immediately had doubts when she heard this. He had to understand the situation first. There was no suspect identity, so she immediately ordered Lu Butou to lead someone.

Lu Butou was about to respond to the call to bring someone, but he didn't want someone to speak loudly at the door at this time: "No need, the next official is here!"

At this time, everyone's eyes turned to the person at the door, and only then did they realize that an old man wearing a seventh-rank official robe of the Great Zhou Dynasty, with his hands slightly leaning on his back, with a straight waist but a vicissitudes of life, appeared in front of everyone.

"He is Chang Yi Cheng?" Everyone murmured, knowing that they had been in the post house for so long and hadn't seen the master in charge here, and seeing a vicissitudes old man, naturally aroused a lot of discussion.

Chang Yicheng, you safely ignored everyone's surprise, came in front of Su Xuan, and immediately said to King Liang and Su Xuan: "His Royal Highness Liang Wang, please push me, and I will greet you two, Chang Ping!"

"Old Yicheng, please get up!" Liang Wang saw Chang Yicheng bowing to him and Su Xuan, and immediately said to Chang Yicheng, asking Chang Yicheng to get up first.

Chang Yicheng then slowly got up and looked at King Liang and Su Xuan.

"Master Yi Cheng, Master Simawag said that you came to Princess Yilya's kitchen last night, is there such a thing?" Su Xuan saw the old Yi Cheng coming, so he immediately asked Chang Yi Cheng.

After all, she didn't want to listen to one side of the story, and she had to listen to both sides to make a fair judgment, so she gave Chang Yicheng a chance to defend himself.

"That's right, Xiaguan did go to the small kitchen, but Xiaguan took care of the special envoys of foreign guests according to the regulations of the Great Zhou. He was afraid that the poor greeting would slow them down, so he chose that time to go to the kitchen to see how the special envoys were eating. had reached a certain quality.

It's just that Xiaguan didn't expect Princess Yilya's meal to be a problem, and the matter of Xiaguan going to the small kitchen would also become the object of doubting adults! "Chang Yicheng said to Su Xuan immediately.

It seems that he still feels aggrieved. You must know that he has been in the position of Yicheng for decades, and he has been walking on eggshells. How can he accept this in his heart?
So when he heard that Su Xuan was going to send someone out to arrest him, his last stubbornness actually made him walk up to Su Xuan himself, and defend himself in front of Su Xuan.

"In this case, shouldn't you go when they are cooking? Why did you go to the small kitchen before them?" Su Xuan asked Chang Yicheng immediately after hearing this.

She is also unwilling to believe that Chang Yicheng is the murderer, because this matter is no small matter. Once it is confirmed, it will be beheaded and the nine clans will be killed. Therefore, she must carefully ask Chang Yicheng, hoping that Chang Yicheng can use the This is an opportunity to clarify myself, and stop being considered by these foreigners as the ones who murdered their Highness the Princess.

"Yesterday, when I went there, it was the evening cooking time. Smoke was rising from the post house and restaurants in the nearby streets, but when I arrived there, Lord Simawag and Mahaney hadn't started cooking. Her Royal Highness cooks.

The lower official once asked Sir Simawag why the meal hadn't been prepared for Her Royal Highness at this point, but Lord Simawag said that they were busy with some things and delayed the time.

At that time, the lower officials couldn't understand that Her Royal Highness was the most important thing in their mission, so how could they neglect the princess to such an extent? "Chang Yicheng said to Su Xuan at this time, obviously at that time he also felt that there was something unreasonable.

It's just because these are all internal affairs of the mission. As the postman of the posthouse in the capital of the Great Zhou Dynasty, it is naturally inconvenient to ask more questions, so he doesn't take it to heart. Now that Princess Yilya has died of poisoning, he also I feel that things are very strange.

Just now he was outside the room listening to Su Xuan and the others deduce the case, and just heard that Su Xuan wanted to find him, so he appeared in the room by himself, came in front of Su Xuan, and talked about this immediately matter.
