Song Dynasty female artist

Chapter 718 It’s better to have clues than no clues

Chun Hong raised her eyes and looked at Lu Gongchuo: "Sir, you didn't ask me this before!"

"Even if I didn't ask these questions, why didn't you take the initiative to tell me? You must know that these are important clues. You are not reporting the information."

Lu Gongchuo asked sternly, Chun Hong's body started to tremble in fear.

"Sir, I really didn't mean to hide it. Everyone in the backyard knows what I just said."

Lu Gongchuo still refused to give up.

Su Yixin: "..."

Su Yixin didn't know Lu Gongchuo's other abilities, but he was very good at shirking the blame.

Just a maid who serves people.

As long as you have not undergone special training, when you are asked by adults, you will answer whatever you ask.

How much do you want them to know?

He, a dignified governor, doesn't have any responsibility at all, yet he still wants to pass the blame like this.

Gu Qingjue looked at Lu Gongchuo: "Master Lu, now that this maid has confessed these things, do you have any ideas for solving the case?"

"I still need to take a closer look."

Gu Qingjue's tone was cold and hard: "Master Lu, let's hold it together first."

In terms of rank, Gu Qingjue and Lu Gongchuo were both third-grade officials, but Gu Qingjue also had a title, so Gu Qingjue spoke to him in such an impolite tone, and Lu Gongchuo had to shut his mouth obediently.

Gu Qingjue looked at Chunhong again: "I want to ask you, have there been any changes to the flowers in the yard after Princess Qi's death?"

"flower?"

Chunhong looked towards the yard behind her without knowing why: "I haven't paid attention to the flowers and plants in the yard these days, so I don't know."

Gu Qingjue looked at Mr. Bao, who understood and nodded at Lou Qing. Lou Qing, wearing a police officer's uniform, stood up and took Chunhong to see all the flowers and plants in the yard.

During this period, Gu Qingjue came to Princess Qi's bedroom to check.

When King Qi went to the concubine's yard to report the death of Princess Qi that night in Chun Ya, he rushed to the yard as soon as possible and sealed off everything in the yard, especially this room. Except for the body of Princess Qi that had been taken away, it was still the body of Princess Qi that night. look.

The Dali Kingdom admires the color white. Princess Qi married into the Song Dynasty. She knew that white was unlucky in the Song Dynasty, but she still couldn't help but decorate her room in a white color.

What if King Qi didn't feel unlucky because of this?

I guess there are some.

Who likes to sleep in a room with white silk floating everywhere, even the curtain is white.

It's just that he didn't rest in Princess Qi's bedroom twice, so it didn't matter.

After Su Yixin entered the house, she did a brief inspection and found that there was a problem with the furnishings of the house. Although the problem was not major, if people lived here for a long time, people would easily develop illusions and pessimism.

"Chunhong, are all the decorations of this bedroom made by your princess?"

Chunhong nodded: "Yes. It was all the princess's own idea. We were just helping to guard it."

As Chun Hong said, Duan Daorong didn't understand the Five Elements Feng Shui at all, otherwise he wouldn't have placed the bedside in the middle of the room, with no obstructions on all sides.

In the Five Elements Feng Shui, the head of the bed must be against a wall or a physical object, and there must be no gap. This is called a "backer" in Feng Shui. There is no such "backer" at the head of the bed, which is extremely taboo in the eyes of practitioners who understand mysticism.

She has lived here for a year and must have been affected.

But it wasn't enough to make her fatal.

After looking around, except that Su Yixin saw some problems with the entire layout of the room from a Feng Shui perspective, even Gu Qingjue found nothing unusual.

Mr. Bao can be famous throughout the ages, so there is no need to doubt his ability.

After they came out of the dormitory, Lou Qing and Chunhong came back. Lou Qing looked happy and reported to Bao Zheng: "Sir, we just checked around and Chunhong told us that one of the flowers and plants has been replaced." This can be regarded as Princess Qi. The most powerful clues were obtained after death.

Several people followed the place where they found the flowers and plants, which was behind Princess Qi's bedroom, close to the window on the back wall.

Chunhong pointed to the replaced flowers and plants and said, "This is it."

The flowers and plants planted are indeed somewhat different from those of others, but the soil at the roots of the flowers and plants is almost the same as the soil next to them.

There has been no sun in Kaifeng these days. Although it has not rained, it is very cold. If it is certain that these flowers and plants have been replaced, then the soil is no different from the ones next to it. It was definitely not replaced in the past two days, and it must have been earlier.

Su Yixin remembered that Pan Gong said that when he came to this yard, he smelled a strange floral fragrance.

Now that the fragrance of flowers has disappeared, the time to replace flowers and plants should be after the second day of the first lunar month and before yesterday.

There is an interval of five days in between.

If you need to use flowers and plants to harm people, you shouldn't be a powerful magician, or just an ordinary person.

Of course, this is just a guess based on current clues.

It's better to have a clue than no clue.

Bao Zheng immediately went to Prince Qi's Mansion to find out who had entered Princess Qi's yard in the past five days.

Fortunately, when Mr. Bao took away Princess Qi's body, he left Chao Chao and Dong Ping guarding the courtyard. King Qi also sent people to strengthen the care here.

The entry and exit of the yard in the past few days have been recorded.

When Dynasty brought over the list, several people fell silent.

"Because in the past few days, only Mama Wan from the old princess's side, Mama Rong from the queen's side, and people from the Dali Embassy have entered Princess Qi's yard."

They are now at Prince Qi's Mansion.

The old princess had never been in good health, so King Qi made an excuse and asked Wan's mother to come to the front hall alone.

Don't wait for Master Bao to ask.

Lu Gongchuo was the first to speak again: "Mother Wan, I want to ask you, what did you do in Princess Qi's yard on the afternoon of the second day of the Lunar New Year?"

Mother Wan is not Chunhong.

She had been serving the old princess for forty or fifty years, and she had never seen any kind of official. Lu Gongchuo could not scare her.

After bowing calmly and saluting, he said: "The old slave is following the order of the old princess to go to the courtyard to take care of the princess's funeral."

Princess Qi is dead.

Whether it is suicide or homicide, you must always be prepared.

Concubine Gao was taken away, and there was no one in the entire Prince Qi's palace who could take charge. The old princess had to send this confidant to take care of it.

This explanation is reasonable and not inappropriate at all.

"Then have you ever been there..."

Just when Lu Gongchuo was about to ask Wan's mother if she had been to the back of the bedroom, he was immediately interrupted by Mr. Bao.

"Mother Wan, where did you walk around in the princess's yard that day?"

"Sir Huibao, because the prince has an order not to touch anything in the courtyard at will, so the old slave only took a look at the princess's door, and then ordered these young men to hang up the white sails in the courtyard, that's it."

"During this period, you watched every move of the boys who were admitted to the hospital with you and didn't go anywhere else?"

Mother Wan recalled for a moment, then nodded: "Yes, they just hung up the white sails and left with the old slave." (End of Chapter)
