Chaos on the temples: You can't escape if you provoke treacherous ministers

Chapter 543
Mrs. Hou insisted on going to see it by herself, the nurse beside her could only help her to go there, and Liu Yunxiang followed behind.

When he came to the back garden and went to the southwest corner, Liu Yunxiang saw Yan Mu standing there with his back, and several servants surrounded him, holding sticks, kitchen knives, and Brick.

After walking over, Mrs. Hou took a breath first, and then asked: "You... Which family's maid are you?"

Yan Mu was dressed as a maid, but she was tall and had broad shoulders, which made people look awkward.At this time, he was facing the southwest corner, and there was a well in front of him, and he was looking into it.

However, he turned a deaf ear to Mrs. Hou's question, and instead bent down and looked inside.There was a big rock next to it, which should have been on the top of the well, but he removed it.

Although Liu Yunxiang was embarrassed, he had to stand up, "Ma'am, I brought him here."

Madam Hou frowned, "Princess, what do you mean?"

"He's actually..."

"There's a dead body in the well!"

Liu Yunxiang's words were interrupted by Yan Mu, and when he said this, everyone was shocked.

The hand of the servant holding the brick trembled, his expression was ugly, obviously remembering the incident that the maidservant Nian'er was killed in this backyard not long ago.

"This well... this well has been abandoned. It is not used on weekdays. How do you know that there are... corpses underneath?"

"Just now when I came here, I saw a dog barking around here. After I removed the stone, a foul smell rushed up, and the government was looking for another corpse. She was most likely killed in your village, so I guessed There is a human body inside, it may have been torn apart, and an arm is missing." Yan Mu spoke calmly, but the listeners backed away in fright.

Madam Hou was also quite frightened, she leaned limply against the nurse next to her, "This is just your guess..."

"Let someone go down and find out." Yan Mu said and turned around.

Madam Hou saw his face clearly, and was shocked again, "You are... King of Zhenbei!"

Yan Mu nodded, "Ma'am won't let the government enter the house to search, this king is suffering from helplessness, I'm making you laugh."

Madam Hou frowned, then looked at Liu Yunxiang, "Princess, you..."

Liu Yunxiang sighed: "If you want to come to Madam, you also want to return the truth to another victim. Let's find the murderer."

Mrs. Hou took a deep breath, turned her head to the side, and said coldly: "A cat and a dog may have died in the well, but it was definitely not a human corpse. The princess and the prince, both of you, please leave my village quickly. !"

"Mrs. Hou, just ask someone to go down and check..."

"No need!"

Madam Hou used to have a gentle temperament, but at this moment she is firm and indifferent, "Since the two of you refuse to leave, don't blame me for being rude."

After finishing speaking, she winked at the nanny beside her, and the nanny called the servants next to them to drive the two of them out.

Yan Mu put his arms around his shoulders, twitched his mouth, and said, "It's related to two murders, but Madam insists on not letting us investigate. Are you covering up the murderer?"

"You, you don't want to slander Mrs. Ben!"

"Whether it is slander or not, as the servant of the Ministry of Punishments, I have to investigate since I found something suspicious in your village today. If anyone wants to stop me, I will invite her to sit in the prison of the Ministry of Punishment!"

Seeing Yan Mu's attitude, Mrs. Hou's feet softened and her face turned extremely pale.

When he came, Yan Mu told Dahei to tell him. At this time, he took out the flute in his sleeve pocket and blew it hard. Dahei rushed in with the officials.

"My lord, did you find anything?" Dahei asked.

Yan Mu pointed to the dry well in the southwest corner, and said, "Send two people down to check it out."

Dahei ordered the orders of two officials, and the two had to start preparations.

"You trespassed on my village, I...I will go to the palace and sue you!" Mrs. Hou shouted angrily.

Yan Mu sneered, "Madam, go ahead and sue, the king is investigating the case, and feels that he is not wrong."

"you!"

Liu Yunxiang was afraid that Yan Mu would make Mrs. Hou angry, so she hurriedly stepped forward to make amends and said, "Madam, it was our fault, so don't be angry. But the officials are here, so you might as well check it out. It's very windy here, why don't you go back to the house first Bar."

Madam Hou's face turned blue, "You two are very powerful, how dare the minister's wife not accompany you."

Liu Yunxiang breathed a sigh of relief, after losing so many good words, Madam Hou still looked aggressive, and her good temper was also worn away.

At this time, there was movement from below, and an officer shouted: "My lord, there is indeed a female corpse below, missing her left arm. It is exactly what we are looking for."

"The body has begun to rot and has been dead for some time."

Yan Mu looked at Mrs. Hou again, raised her eyebrows and said, "Ma'am, obviously I guessed it right. There are no dead bodies of cats and dogs under here. What do you say next?"

Madam Hou closed her eyes, as if she couldn't breathe.

"The minister's wife dare not do anything."

"Okay, let's carry the body up first!"

Dahei brought a few officials to help, and quickly lifted the corpse up. The corpse had already started to rot, and the stench was strong, and the servants of the Zhuangzi retreated one after another.

Fortunately, this corpse was only missing an arm, and it was not dismembered like the previous one.

Liu Yunxiang also covered his lips and nose with a handkerchief, a little afraid to look over there.

"The corpse is dressed as a maidservant. Everyone in your Zhuangzi comes here to see if they recognize each other." Yan Mu said.

He said, but no one came forward, and they all hid back. He yelled again, and these people bit the bullet and walked forward.

The first one was the butler, and he recognized it immediately, "Isn't this... Isn't this Lanxiang!"

As soon as he said this, other people rushed to look at it, and everyone nodded.

"It's Lan Xiang!"

"Yes, it's her!"

Dahei asked, "Who is Lan Xiang?"

"Lan Xiang is our sixth girl's personal maid!" said the housekeeper.

"Six girls?"

"Yes, we thought she disappeared with Miss Six, why did she die here?"

"Why is Lan Xiang here...Sifu...she..." Mrs. Hou thought of something, her eyes widened, her body trembled, and she suddenly passed out the next moment.

"lady!"

Liu Yunxiang hurriedly asked Zijin to help send Mrs. Hou back to the courtyard, and also told her to go to Qu Moran to show Mrs. Hou a look.

Yan Mu inspected the corpse first, and then circled the well a few times, thinking while turning.

"The officials of the Jingzhao Mansion checked it out. This well is not considered a secret. It should have been checked. That is to say, the body was thrown into the well later, just like the severed arm that was later buried in the forest." Yan Mu analyzed.

Dahei learned two tricks from Wu Zuo, briefly inspected the corpse, and said: "From the perspective of the uniformity of the wound on the severed arm, the arm was cut off after the death of the deceased. The previous skin contracted and the wound opened. The one who was cut before the deceased was a massacre. If it is inferred from this, the circumstances of the two people at that time were not the same, and they may not be the same murderer."

What Dahei said, Yan Mu had already thought of it, and he even thought of who the murderer was.

He looked at Liu Yunxiang, and Liu Yunxiang immediately thought of it after listening to Dahei's analysis. When they looked at each other, they knew that the other party had thought of it too.

The murderer is most likely Red Candle!
"This man must be a Lianjiazi. His swordsmanship is extremely accurate. His sword strikes the vital point, and the victim died quickly without much pain." Dahei said again.

Liu Yunxiang breathed out, it should be the red candle.

It's just that Hong Zhu was seriously injured at the time, and obviously this little maid was incapable of hurting her, so who could it be?

No, there is one person who can hurt her!
Han Sifu, the sixth girl of the Dingyuan Hou Mansion, knows kung fu!
