Chapter 18, Chapter 18

On the other side of Aunt Qing, when she heard that Jiang Ci had returned unscathed, she was very surprised.

She wondered in her heart, how could Jiang Ci come back unscathed?Although King Yu was the first to be in charge of the third division, she had heard of the iron fist method, not to mention that he and Jiang Ci were a fiancé couple, shouldn't they avoid suspicion?

Soon it was time for dinner, the Jiang family belonged to a relatively traditional mansion, the male master holds the highest power, and the wives, concubines and children under his care are taken care of by him, and he can't talk about the deep father-daughter relationship with these children. Love, the whole family will eat together on the 15th day of the new year, and each of them will open a small kitchen in their own yard for the rest of the time.

Aunt Qing is acting as the mistress in the mansion, but she is not domineering, and she is more respectful to Jiang Ci on weekdays - but the premise is that Jiang Ci will not touch her core interests.

For today's meal, everyone was present except for Jiang Huaisheng, who was studying abroad, and even Jiang Mingxu and Jiang Jinwei, whom Jiang Ci seldom met, were also there.

Jiang Mingxu and Jiang Jinwei are the children of Aunt Wang and Aunt Yang respectively. Jiang Mingxu is tall and tall, while Jiang Jinwei is about the same height and build as Jiang You. The two of them didn't speak after they sat down. Aunt Qing seemed very enthusiastic. Get scared, eat more, and get some sleep tonight."

There was a little more smile in Jiang Houye's eyes, and he said: "Don't bring up the matter of the Chen family in the future. After the trial in Dali Temple is over, your marriage with King Yu will still count."

Jiang Ci held a magnolia slice, and said calmly: "The murderer didn't catch him, how could he pass by?"

Aunt Qing's expression froze slightly.

Jiang Ci looked at Aunt Qing, finished eating the magnolia slices, and then said slowly: "What is Auntie doing in the ice cellar this morning?"

Aunt Qing had already prepared, and said: "It's just a meal, melons and fruits that need to be iced."

"What fruit?"

"Banana..."

Jiang Ci smiled, "The bananas are not easy to store, and they will go bad after a few days. When did this batch of bananas arrive?"

The capital and several nearby prefectures do not produce sweet bananas, which are rare in the capital because they all come from the south as tribute.

Aunt Qing didn't understand why Jiang Ci suddenly became so interested in Ganjiao, but Jiang Ci was the eldest lady in the mansion, she still replied: "About five or six days ago, it was because I didn't eat much, so I put it in the ice cellar Li, I suddenly remembered this morning, so I ordered someone to open it."

Jiang Ci said: "Auntie got up so early?"

Aunt Qing said: "Yes... last night something big happened, so I didn't sleep well."

At this moment, Jiang You interjected: "Eldest sister, what's going on today? It's like a firecracker, you've been involved in the case, and you're holding on to Auntie and won't let you go."

Jiang Ci sneered, "Jiang You, where were you when Chen Rui died last night?"

Aunt Qing looked at Jiang You subconsciously, Jiang You was taken aback for a moment, and stammered: "Elder... elder sister is still in charge of investigating the case now?"

Lord Jiang Hou said lightly: "Eat."

Jiang Ci said, "I didn't have a good night in Prince Yu's mansion... Early this morning, my aunt opened the ice cellar for no reason, and Chen Rui's clothes were found in the cellar. I don't have an alibi, King Yu is the first I suspect it is me for a long time, am I not wronged? Auntie, if you hadn't opened the ice cellar, why would King Yu come to question me?"

"No... no... how can I blame this? I just opened the ice cellar, not to mention, how would we know that Chen Rui's clothes are in the ice cellar?"

Jiang Ci smiled, "Auntie really doesn't know?"

"What do you mean, miss? Could it be that miss wants to say that I deliberately framed you?!" Aunt Qing's eyes were red with anxiety.

"That's not what it means. Auntie, don't worry. I just want to say that King Yu told me something this morning...but I'm eating now, so I won't say anything, so as not to upset my appetite." Ci spoke slowly and jokingly, and the expressions of several people at the dinner table were different.

"Ah Ci, you just came back and got a little frightened. You said something you shouldn't have said. I don't blame you. The meal is almost over, let's go." Jiang Hou stood up, and Aunt Qing also stood up subconsciously. , "Where is Lord Hou resting tonight..."

Lord Jiang Hou said indifferently: "My Madam heard about Ah Ci and was very worried. I'll go and tell her."

After all, he left.

I'm not in the mood to continue eating this meal, Lord Jiang has left, and Aunt Qing was planning to leave, but Jiang Ci suddenly said: "Sit down."

She is the eldest lady in this mansion, my aunt can only be regarded as half of the elders, and the rest are concubines and concubines. Among all the people present, she has the highest status.

Everyone present looked at each other in blank dismay, Jiang Ci said: "Do you want to know what King Yu said to me this morning?"

Without waiting for others to say anything, Jiang Ci spoke first, "Yu Wang said, there are sperm spots on Chen Rui's clothes."

Everyone: "..."

"This thing is obviously left after a man and a woman have sex, but Chen Rui died in the ice cellar, and the footprints at the scene showed that there was more than one person at the scene, so this is a bit strange. Could it be Chen Rui? Who did Ray have sex with in the ice cellar, but there was someone standing next to him?"

Jiang Mingxu stood up and said, "This...it's not convenient for me to listen."

Jiang Mingxu was born by Aunt Wang, she was three years older than her, he was very tall, and he didn't talk much at ordinary times, when Jiang Ci said this, he immediately felt that he shouldn't be here.

"I said, sit down." Jiang Ci emphasized his tone.

"As far as I know, all the children in our mansion are unmarried. Logically speaking, all of them are perfect, but there must be one person who is not—this person, who is it?"

Aunt Qing was stunned, "Miss, what do you mean by this? Could it be that you are going to have a medical examination?!"

This is a great shame!
Of course, it is impossible for Jiang Ci to test her body, her purpose is just to make the pool of water more muddy.

……

A few hours ago, the morgue.

A place like a morgue always has a smell, not a strong stench of decay, nor the aroma of saponins, it's more like a kind of dead meat colliding with dead meat, touching every inch of the wall of the morgue , and the silent taste that has been marinated.

Speaking human words is weird.

Jiang Ci stared at the semen spots on the clothes, and said: "In our mansion, only the master can open the ice cellar. It is impossible for servants to open the ice cellar privately, unless she is sneaky, but if it is true that the servant has an affair with Chen Rui, he should also choose In a place like a grove, not an ice cellar."

Shang Xingchuan nodded slightly, "The man chose the location in the ice cellar, and he wanted to kill him from the beginning, but it's strange how Chen Rui was willing to go in."
