Chapter 159
Everyone continued to move forward. Every time a coffin was opened, Xu Anan made sure there were no mummies left, and then strangled them directly in the cradle with endless water.
Some of them were empty coffins, and they were probably the ones Xu Anan met at the beginning, and they were awakened by the blood of these girls.
The secret passage also has an end, which is a wooden door. A thick and foul-smelling incense can escape from the cracks in the door.
General Zhu covered his nose in disgust: "Damn it, who sprinkled fragrant powder on a dead rat? The smell is disgusting."
He kicked the door open and found a small house. This was the woodshed of the house, and the smell filled the whole yard.
Some of the guards couldn't help but retched. It was so smelly and disgusting.
This was even more torture for Cheng Huai, who had a keen sense of smell. He frowned tightly until a brocade handkerchief with a faint scent of purple kite was handed to him: "Your Majesty, it will be much better if you cover this."
Cheng Huai also met her moist and charming eyes. In her eyes, only his shadow was reflected. The scent of Xu Anan's body was on the brocade handkerchief. Cheng Huai also coughed lightly: "No need, you can do it yourself." Cover it."
So she covered it up unceremoniously. General Zhu found that men's clothes were still hanging in the courtyard, and they were the clothes of Jingzhao Mansion. Xu Anan knew it at a glance: "This is He Min's home in the north of the city. He does not I haven’t moved out yet, I still live here.”
Xu Anan walked towards a closed door. General Zhu opened the door, and Cheng Huai was further away.
The scene inside the house made everyone look stunned. It was filled with all kinds of sachets, and they were all fragrant with osmanthus, which was so strong that it stunk.
There is a barrel in the middle, and the real stench comes from the barrel.
When General Zhu took a closer look, his expression changed drastically. He saw a girl soaking in the bucket. The bucket was full of soaked sachets, which turned black and red.
General Zhu vomited directly: "His grandma, this person is too perverted, hiding a corpse at home and soaking it in a sachet? This person must be sick."
The girl seemed to have been dead for a month or two, and her body was already exuding a stench. Xu Anan walked to the table inside. There was a piece of paper with a list of spices on it. The handwriting was not pretty, and it should have been written by a girl.
"This is He Min's sister, He Han."
General Zhu's eyes widened in disbelief: "He is sick."
"I don't know if he is sick or not, but he does have mental problems. Let's deal with this. The case can be closed tomorrow."
General Zhu looked at her in astonishment: "Mother, is the case closed now?"
"How long will we have to wait?" Xu Anan stuffed the paper into his purse and walked out.
Cheng Huai was also standing at the door breathing fresh air. Because the northern part of the city was empty, no one noticed the peculiar smell of this place.
After Yao Zhuoyu found out the identity of the deceased, he rushed back through the secret passage and saw a large covered barrel in the middle. His face turned pale at the smell.
"Mother...this is..."
"He Han." Xu Anan's pale face and disbelieving eyes continued as she continued, "Is that person from Princess Pingle's house?"
Yao Zhuoyu was surprised: "Empress, how did you find out?"
"This man is Uncle Li, the housekeeper of Princess Pingle's Mansion, but why did he die here?"
Xu Anan raised her eyes and met Cheng Huaiye's eyes. She said slowly: "It's not difficult to guess this matter. Princess Pingle's final goal is Qiao Xiangsi. , and I won’t let Qiao Xiangsi die naturally by letting myself bear the infamy.”
"The fragrance of Rose Fragrance Pavilion's popular sachet comes from He Han. We can assume that if you have this unique fragrance, you will definitely want to keep it for yourself, but if He Han doesn't want to use his secret recipe Selling, and the only way to get this kind of recipe is to kill people and sell goods."
"The eldest princess Pingle chose to kill He Han in the haunted house and take possession of Fang Zi. It was Li Bo who killed He Han. The trouble in the haunted house became more and more serious in the name of ghosts. She also wanted to control Qiao Xiangsi to come in. And Uncle Li is waiting inside." Yao Zhuoyu discovered the crux of the problem: "Then why did he die? Was it He Min who killed him?"
Xu Anan shook his head and smiled: "Didn't I say it? There are two real murderers. Except for the first one who was ordered to kill by Princess Pingle, the others are not."
Yao Zhuoyu was slightly shocked, and felt more and more that Xu Anan was really thoughtful. He, a person who had handled cases from the Ministry of Justice for many years, felt ashamed.
He looked at Xu Anan with unconcealed admiration, and Cheng Huai also noticed that the confident Xu Anan was shining.
What should I do if something is too attractive and I want to hide it?
Yao Zhuoyu continued to ask: "Who is the other murderer?"
Xu Anan smiled lightly: "He has already appeared, let's wait for him to confess."
A murder case implicated the entire Princess Pingle Mansion.
Next, there is no need for Xu Anan to give orders. Yao Zhuoyu will seal the Guixiang Pavilion tomorrow and then interrogate the perfumer. As for Princess Pingle's Mansion, Cheng Huai also ordered the investigation.
The case is finally settled here.
And all of this was a trap set against Qiao Xiangsi, but things were a little out of control, resulting in more people losing their lives accidentally.
On the way back, the two of them walked on the path, with occasional lanterns lighting up the path under their feet.
"My eldest aunt has always been ruthless in her actions. Even if we finally learn of her crime, I'm afraid it will take a lot of trouble to completely suppress her."
Pingle's identity is there, she is the late emperor's sister, and she must be respected by him when he was alive.
"However, I decided to accept her princess title."
Taking away her title is no more uncomfortable than killing Pingle. Her title is her capital to be unscrupulous.
Xu An'an was not interested in Pingle's later stage. Evil people will be punished by evil people, and she will not end well.
The only thing she wants to do now is...
"Your Majesty, I would like to invite you to have a meal. I will have a great time making money tonight."
Cheng Huai also smiled at her and said, "How much money do you have?"
"Stop looking down on people, 30 taels of silver is enough to go to an ordinary restaurant for a meal."
Of course, she wouldn't go to a high-end place like Jingshui Tower to join in the fun because she couldn't afford it.
She pulled Cheng Huai and walked a little faster. There was no curfew in Daqi, and the city was very lively at night. Some of them brought their families with them to take a walk on the main street after dinner.
There are many activities in the evening, and there are even acrobatic performances that are comparable to magic. Cheng Huai has never seen these before. Xu Anan often watched people perform magic tricks in modern times. Xu Anan saw through such bad performances at a glance.
She quietly said to Cheng Huai, "I can do this, and I'm better than him."
And her words were heard by a man who came close to ask for the reward. He said "Hey" unconvinced: "This little lady, we must speak with real evidence, otherwise it will be very embarrassing. Since you said you Yes, then come and try it!”
