Chapter 221
Jiang Miao held Luo Tingye's hand tightly. The sweat in her palms kept pouring out, moistening their hands. Her eyes looked around from time to time but then quickly retracted. She didn't know when her breathing started. He started to slow down, for fear of disturbing the people lying here.

Magistrate Wang asked kindly: "Miss Jiang, do you want to go out first? The face of the corpse is damaged. I'm afraid it will give you nightmares at night."

Jiang Miao swallowed nervously and agreed almost subconsciously, but when she looked at the way in, it was so far!There are also corpses covered with white cloths. Why are there so many corpses in Yidu County? It seems that Magistrate Wang is not trying his best!
Magistrate Wang: Do you blame me?
Jiang Miao thought for a while, but shook her head, "No, I won't go out, I'm not afraid." Her teeth chattered as she said this.

Magistrate Wang couldn't help but smile, feeling that the autopsy room was no longer so spooky.

Luo Tingye was angry and helpless, so he simply covered her with his cloak, "Don't move, we will be out soon."

Jiang Miao was very well-behaved and really motionless.

Magistrate Wang opened the curtain covering the body, and Luo Tingye took a breath of air, "No wonder the old lady of the Yang family fainted from fright. The body was so badly damaged, and the wounds seemed to have been caused by sharp blades."

Magistrate Wang also felt that the wound was too shocking, so he lowered the curtain again and explained: "Wu Zuo can only judge that the chest piece is a sharp blade, but he cannot judge the length and thickness of the chest piece. It can be said to be a dagger or a knife."

No sharp weapons were found at the scene, and Magistrate Wang suspected that he had been taken away.

Luo Tingye opened the white curtain covering the body again and glanced at the lower body of the body, "Are there any other injuries on the body?"

Magistrate Wang spoke, "There are only some minor abrasions on the body. I heard that the deceased had the habit of riding a horse. It must have been caused while riding a horse. However, there is ink on the fingertips of the corpse's right hand, and there is ink on the thumb. There are also red traces, which I guess are ink pads.”

Luo Tingye thought thoughtfully, "There is ink and ink pad. The deceased probably wrote something and put his own fingerprint on it before he died."

He just found out that Mr. Yang also participated in the palace hunt five years ago, and he died immediately afterwards. Is this too much of a coincidence?

Could it be that it was a surprise?

"Susu..."

There was a rustling sound outside the window, and the breeze blew by. Jiang Miao got a layer of goosebumps all over her body. Uh-huh, I'm so scared, I really want to leave!

Why don't you go?

Seeing that she was trembling, Luo Tingye knew that she was afraid, so he held her hand. The coldness from her fingertips shocked him, "Why is it so cold?"

Jiang Miao shook her head, not wanting to say that she was scared.

Luo Tingye: "..."

County Magistrate Wang also saw that Jiang Miao was frightened. He admired her a little. It was the first time she came to the autopsy room and she was not frightened enough to scream. He was also a little brave. When he thought of her asking someone to go outside Yang Ji's dim sum shop Distribute leaflets and feel relieved.

The three of them moved to Magistrate Wang's study.

Magistrate Wang lives in a house not far from the county government office. He rarely lives in the county government office, so there is no one to clean the study.

"The tea is a little cold, so please make do with it, Your Highness, Miss Jiang."

Jiang Miao was still a little frightened. She took a sip from the tea bowl and her heartbeat returned to normal. She didn't even remember how she came out of the autopsy room.Luo Tingye held her hand tightly, feeling a little regretful that he shouldn't have taken her to the autopsy room.

In order to go back as soon as possible, Luo Tingye asked County Magistrate Wang, "Has the murderer been found?"

"At present, we suspect that the boy next to Mr. Yang has some punches and kicks on his body, but he has no motive for killing, so we are still investigating."

Luo Tingye frowned, "Since he is the young man who follows Mr. Yang, he must be loyal to him. If Mr. Yang dies, it will not do him any good. The murderer may not be him, but since it is the young man, Sibi, he should have been nearby when Sanye Yang died. Did he explain anything?"

Magistrate Wang found the boy's confession from the table and said, "Your Highness, please read it."

"The boy explained that Mr. Yang was moved into another courtyard while hiding in a box. Not long after entering the house, he sent all the servants out. He was the only one left in the house. At that time, the boy was guarding at the door."

Luo Tingye asked keenly: "Is the yard very big?"

"It is a two-entry courtyard. It is not very big, but the structure of the courtyard is a bit special. The door is on the side of the house. The boy was standing at the door and could not see the main house. He heard Mr. Yang's words It was only when he screamed that he realized something was wrong. As soon as he entered the room, Mr. Yang fell to the ground. He was already out of breath. He was frightened and hurriedly notified the Yang family."

Luo Tingye knew that Magistrate Wang also believed that servants would not kill people. In fact, there was no benefit to killing people. Moreover, the ink and red mud on the hands of the deceased seemed to confirm this.

Luo Tingye looked through the case file and found nothing suspicious. The only suspicious thing was where the murderer came from and where he left.

However, if it is a killer, it is not difficult to get in and out of the yard, and it is not the key to solving the case.

Magistrate Wang sipped his tea, looked at Luo Tingye from time to time, and suddenly asked, "Does Your Highness have any suspects?"

Luo Tingye blinked and instantly understood Magistrate Wang's guess. He shook his head, "It probably wasn't the third child who did it."

Magistrate Wang raised his eyebrows, his eyes full of interest, "Why did His Highness say that?"

"Master Yang San's status in the Yang family is not low. Now that he is dead, everyone will suspect that it was the third son who did it. If it is really confirmed, the third son will be enmity with the Yang family. Although the people of the Yang family will not kill him No matter what, but if it is done behind the scenes, he will definitely not be able to bear it."

Luo Jingce is not that stupid.

It can be seen from the fact that the first thing he did after moving into the East Palace was to take a concubine. He preferred to balance the left and right and did not want to become enemies with either party.

Magistrate Wang originally suspected Luo Jingce the most. If Mr. Yang died, the crime of murdering the princess could be pinned on him and the Yang family. Then Luo Jingce's situation could be eased.

Not long ago, my mentor wrote to me about the prince's unstable position in the court.

After the incident in Huyang, many senior ministers in the court questioned the prince's character. His Majesty was also ambiguous about the prince. He even asked several young princes to study at the Guozixue, and completely left the East Palace.

Many people in the court speculated that His Majesty was disappointed with Luo Jingce and planned to train a few young princes. Even his mentor felt that the prince's dethronement might not be far away. The reason why he was reluctant to do anything was because the young princes were still unwilling to do anything. If he doesn't grow up, the prince will be deposed and the country will be unstable.

Luo Tingye noticed that Jiang Miao looked a little dazed and felt nervous, "Check who the Yang family has interacted with recently and what grudges they have, especially business cooperation."
