The little girl hides her secrets

Niu Xiguang said in a very uncomfortable heart: "But we have no progress now, what should we do?"

"It can't be considered that there is no progress." Gu Yuefei said: "We have found a lot of things. At first glance, these things have nothing to do with each other, but I think we just lack an opportunity. As long as we can find a thread to connect these things, the truth will come naturally. That’s how it came to light.”

Niu Xiguang quite agreed: "You are right, but what should we do?"

Gu Yuefei said: "Search again, there must be some details that we missed."

"This..." Niu Xiguang said hesitantly: "It's been so long, there shouldn't be any useful clues left."

Gu Yuefei laughed lightly and said: "It's not too long, believe me, there is no perfect crime in this world, we must show perseverance."

"Yes." Niu Xiguang replied: "Then search again, hoping to find new discoveries."

At the end of this conversation, the two didn't want to waste a second, and led the brothers to collect evidence everywhere.

Gu Yuefei has always been strict, and his team is clean and tidy. He first took people to the main hall to check it. Although it looked very empty on the surface and there were almost no decorations, Gu Yuefei still searched carefully, not letting anyone go. a corner.

This is the scene of the first crime. On the day of Princess Huikang Jiji, that is, the day of Qianqiu Festival, the emperor sat on the dragon chair and drank tea with a lot of arsenic, and died on the spot. However, the source of arsenic has not been found so far. There is none in it, and there is no circulation of arsenic in the entire imperial capital.

Everyone who touched the tea was checked and found nothing wrong, so what is the problem?

Gu Yuefei gently touched every part of the hall with his hands, trying to find even small things like water stains.He once specifically asked the servants in the palace not to clean the hall, but this matter made the queen displeased. She said that the second prince is now acting as an agent of government affairs, and no one can bear it if he is injured by poisonous objects, so Gu Yuefei did not insist. .

He let out a long sigh, and suddenly saw two young eunuchs passing by the yard not far away, holding an extremely delicate box in their hands.

Gu Yuefei hurried to catch up and asked, "What are you holding?"

The little eunuch was stunned, and said: "This is a gift from Princess Huikang. It is said to be the best Pu'er tea. We are about to send it to the princess' mansion."

Gu Yuefei narrowed his eyes and said, "Princess Huikang's gift should have been delivered long ago, and why didn't I remember that there was Pu'er tea in her gift?"

He checked all the presents that day, and his memory has always been excellent. If there is such a thing, it is impossible for him to forget it, and he will take out some tea leaves to check on the spot.

The little eunuchs were no longer as scared as they were at the beginning. They knew that Gu Yuefei was just fierce-looking, but he was still kind to his servants, so one of the eunuchs said calmly: "Because the emperor likes to drink Pu-erh tea, Princess Huikang has been with her for a long time. We agreed that all Puer tea received will be sent directly to the emperor's bedroom without her consent, and will be guarded by the eunuch in the small warehouse of the emperor's bedroom. But now the emperor has passed away, so we have to return the Puer tea to the emperor. Princess."

"So that's it." Gu Yuefei nodded understandingly, and said, "Can you let me check, if there is no problem, you can leave."

The two little eunuchs nodded and brought the box to Gu Yuefei.

Gu Yuefei slowly opened the two boxes. The first box contained wrapped tea leaves. He took a closer look and squeezed a little with his hands. He found no problems. He did not take it lightly. He went to a small part and asked his subordinates to get it. Too hospital verification.

The tea in the other one seemed to be fine, but Gu Yuefei also took a little of it.

The two young eunuchs actually felt that this was unnecessary. After all, all the things sent to the palace had been inspected, so how could there be any problems? But when they thought that the emperor was indeed poisoned and died, they held back their words and stood helplessly. Stand aside and wait.

About a quarter of an hour later, the subordinate ran back with the tea leaves and said out of breath, "Master Gu, the tea leaves were soaked in blood ganoderma lucidum water before they were stir-fried."

Blood ganoderma?

Gu Yuefei was confused for a moment, then smiled and said: "It's actually blood ganoderma. It grows in extremely cold places, and ordinary people can't get close to it. This thing is rare in a thousand years. I didn't expect someone to find such a valuable thing to dedicate to Huikang." Princess, you really have a heart."

"No, that's not right." The subordinate hurriedly said: "The imperial doctor said that this blood ganoderma is a great tonic, just a little bit, the effect can be said to be resurrection. But the blood ganoderma in Pu'er tea is very strong, the emperor I'm getting old, and my body is seriously deficient, so I can't stand this great tonic. Even if the emperor hadn't been poisoned in the hall, he still wouldn't be able to live long after drinking this Pu'er tea."

The two young eunuchs gasped when they heard the words, they looked at each other, not knowing what to do.

Gu Yuefei turned his head and asked, "Who gave this Pu'er tea?"

The little eunuch said in a very low voice: "It was given by the second prince. We didn't know there was blood ganoderma in it, but I was ordered to give it today."

Knowing that this matter had nothing to do with the two young eunuchs, Gu Yuefei waved his hands and said, "You all go back first, leave the tea leaves, and just go back and report the truth to Princess Huikang."

"Thank you, Mr. Gu." The two young eunuchs left in despair, for fear that Gu Yuefei would regret it.

Gu Yuefei's face was abnormally cold. Holding two boxes of tea leaves, he strode towards the second prince's residence with great strides, and appeared in front of the second prince majestically.

He put two boxes of tea in front of Chen Shiheng and asked, "Is this a gift from the Second Highness to Princess Huikang?"

Chen Shiheng's eyes flashed, and then he looked at Gu Yuefei and said: "Yes, this is a gift from the palace to Sister Huikang, how did it get into your hands?"

Gu Yuefei narrowed his eyes and said, "Do you know about the blood ganoderma in it?"

Chen Shiheng was not afraid of boiling water and said: "Of course this hall knows, it was made by this hall through untold hardships. It can not only prolong life, but also beautify the skin. There is no more thoughtful gift than this."

Gu Yuefei questioned: "There are many ways for you to give blood ganoderma to Princess Huikang, why bother with Pu'er tea, don't you know that the emperor likes to drink Pu'er tea?"

The second prince was questioned, he was speechless for a while, and could only stare at Gu Yuefei.

Gu Yuefei condemned and said: "Do you think you can't find out without poisoning others? Your attempt is so obvious that you think it's perfect. Princess Huikang's filial piety is well-known, and you never revealed that there is blood Ganoderma lucidum in this Pu'er tea. Princess Huikang will naturally dedicate Pu'er tea to the emperor."

"But do you think you'll get away with it? If the emperor died because of your Pu'er tea, no matter if you did it on purpose or not, you will be found out immediately. In the end, you can only die."
