After the divorce, the queen mother was pampered by powerful ministers

Chapter 20 The Man Behind
Brilliant Pavilion.

The agate curtains fluttered slightly, and Su Wunian leaned on the soft pillow with one hand on the soft couch made of huanghuali wood by the vermilion round carved window, and with the other hand moved the dark blue soft pillow embroidered with manzhu and sahua patterns.

"After the coachman returned to his hometown, he spent a lot of money. Even if he was asked to pay 50 taels of silver today, he readily agreed to it?"

"Yes."

"When he saw the handkerchief that Sui Qing had used in my hand today, his eyes were wrong."

"Miss suspects that he killed Sui Qing?" Bi Yingdan lifted her phoenix eyes slightly, and was adding freshly made incense powder to the gilded auspicious beast incense burner.

"The remaining incense ashes in the incense burner contain soul-breaking incense powder. A small amount of that thing can help people fall asleep, but too much will cause people to sleep forever, killing people invisible and silently." Su Wunian changed to a soft pillow position.

"And on my current carriage, there is no soul-severing incense in the incense burner."

And when she was reborn and woke up, Sui Qing was extremely nervous, "I prepared an incense burner exactly like the one on the carriage in advance, and the incense burner in the carriage has been added with soul-breaking incense."

After Shen Shengge inhaled the broken soul incense unknowingly, fell asleep ignorantly, and died quietly in his sleep, then he took out the good incense burner prepared in advance from the food box and exchanged it with the incense burner on the carriage.

After Sui Qing had done all this, she thought that Shen Shengge was dead, so she was frightened when she saw herself waking up.

The plan failed, so she borrowed the space of the carriage from a silk shop, and hid the food box containing the incense burner in the hay of the carriage house, waiting for time to retrieve it, and then disposed of the incense burner inside.

But unexpectedly, an accident happened, Shen Shengge was robbed halfway, and she died.That's why the food box was discovered by the waiter of the silk shop and pawned it.

"Miss guess, it is Sui Qing who wants to assassinate you?" Bi Ying analyzed softly, "But Sui Qing is just a maid, unable to find the gilt incense burner that looks exactly like the one on your carriage, so someone must have ordered it."

"Just after you were kidnapped, Sui Qing was killed, the coachman ran away and disappeared, and suddenly got a lot of money. The person who gave the coachman money behind his back may be the same person who ordered Suiqing to assassinate you."

"If it was the coachman who killed Sui Qing, then what caused the coachman to have murderous intentions at that time?"

"There are two situations, the person who kidnapped me that night knocked the coachman and Sui Qing unconscious, but the coachman woke up first and found Sui Qing who was unconscious, I had already been kidnapped at that time, my life and death were uncertain, Shen's residence didn't know about it yet. For some reason, he took out Sui Qing's handkerchief and smothered Sui Qing to death." Su Wunian used her fingernails to pick at the silver-embroidered Manzhushahua on the soft pillow, and analyzed it carefully.

"In another case, the coachman and Sui Qing were not knocked out at the time, and something happened between them, causing the coachman to smother Suiqing to death with a handkerchief, and then ran away."

"But why must it be Sui Qing's handkerchief?" Su Wunian seemed to be talking to herself, sorting out clues in her mind, "It seems that the handkerchief is the key."

"But the handkerchief is gone, even if the coachman smothers Sui Qing to death with the handkerchief, there is no need to take the handkerchief away, unless there is an ulterior secret in the handkerchief." Bi Ying also helped analyze, "There will be something ulterior secret?"

"There is a special fragrance on the handkerchief, which can prevent you from inhaling the incense and dying." Su Wunian put down the soft pillow in his hand, "At that time, Sui Qing was also in the carriage, and the space was small and airtight. She had to avoid inhaling too much incense and dying. Death, only after I fell asleep, covered her mouth and nose with a handkerchief soaked in a special fragrance in advance."

"After the driver killed Sui Qing, he took the handkerchief away on purpose to destroy the evidence." Su Wunian said firmly.

"I see."

"If Sui Qing's goal is to kill me, then after I was taken away, would she want to hide it and delay the time to ask the Shen family for help?"

"Maybe." Bi Ying put herself into Sui Qing's perspective, "But I heard that Sui Qing is timid and cowardly, maybe he will be at a loss after being frightened."

"So, what is the coachman doing at this time?" Su Wunian asked.

"The coachman got the money after killing Sui Qing, which means that he, like Sui Qing, has long been bribed to work for others."

"They may all know that each other works for the same person, so after I was taken into captivity, they would definitely discuss what to do." Su Wunian paused, "And during this discussion, some kind of conflict arose, which led to The driver killed Sui Qing."

The next day.

"Miss, the other party is very cautious and cannot find clues about the source of the money." Bi Ying said respectfully.

"However, after some inquiring in Shen's residence, I found out that Sui Qing actually had a lover all along. Some time ago, she privately mentioned with her close sister that the lover wanted to redeem her body and marry her."

"Go to Suiqing's room and check carefully. Be sure to find out who her lover is?" Su Wunian had a hunch that this lover was the reason why she took the risk of poisoning Shen Shengge.

"Yes."

midnight.

In the remote small room closest to the carriage house, Wu Zhang, the coachman, was lying on the bed, drowsy.But even though the bruised buttocks had been medicated, it still hurt like a vicious dog biting the buttocks.

Unable to turn over, his hands were already numb from lying on his stomach, the dim yellow flames flickered, maybe it was his eyes dazzled, but he saw a black shadow flying past the window.

"Kang Dang——" The window was blown open by the cold wind, and suddenly a gust of cold wind poured into the room, the flames were extinguished, and the room became pitch black, which made the room that had no charcoal fire for heating even colder.

The cold wind poured into his neck, he shivered and opened his eyes, and his consciousness suddenly became clear.If you don't look at it, it's nothing to look at.

The back of a woman appeared in front of her, wearing Sui Qing's favorite light blue long jacket, this!Isn't this what she was wearing on the day she died? !

I was so frightened that I couldn't sleep at all, and I almost couldn't even move my tongue.

"Why did you kill me?" The figure turned around slowly, her face was covered by blue hair, she couldn't see her face at all, she just approached slowly step by step, her deep voice seemed to come from hell, it was creepy, "Give me back my life ..."

"Don't...don't come here!" Wu Zhang wanted to escape, but his buttocks were blooming and he couldn't move, so he had to hold his head in his hands and bury it in the quilt, trembling like a frightened rabbit, "I, I don't want to kill you either."

"It was you, you forced me. If it wasn't for your unscrupulous words, worrying about the failure of your poisoning the young lady, I eloped with you in the middle of the night and yelled loudly, I would not have killed you by mistake. "

"I, I regret it too, I love you."

"You didn't do the thing, of course you are not afraid of it being exposed. But if the thing didn't work out, she actually gave you money!"

"You, you know, Second Aunt loves me so much that she gave me a sum of money when the matter failed and her fiancée died."

Under the blue hair of the "female ghost", she raised her thin lips lightly, and stretched out her hand to give Wu Zhang in the quilt a hard blow, and Wu Zhang in the quilt finally stopped shaking.

On the second day, Wu Zhang woke up suddenly, the windows and doors were closed, and the flame on the oil lamp was still burning.

Could it be?Was everything last night a dream?
