Erosion of bones and pets, forensic mad concubine

Chapter 700 Someone is making a sacrifice in a special way!
Chapter 700 Someone is making a sacrifice in a special way!
Rong Leng didn't speak, Liu Wei waited for him to speak.

After waiting for a long time, seeing the man still staring at the scroll, Liu Wei finally couldn't bear it and asked, "What's wrong?"

Rong Leng came back to his senses, raised his hand and pressed the center of his eyebrows, closed his eyes and said: "It's nothing."

Liu Wei frowned and asked, "What's wrong with this painting?"

Rong Leng shook his head, stretched out his hand to put away the scroll, and said, "I will be here when this painting is finished."

Liu Wei was taken aback: "You looked at this painting drawn by Concubine Min?"

Rong Leng lowered his eyes, as a default.

Liu Wei pointed to the little eunuch in the painting: "This person was there at that time?"

"There is no him in the painting." Rong Leng looked at the extra person in the painting, his tone was very calm, but also very cold.

Liu Wei didn't quite understand what Rong Leng meant.

Rong Leng simply explained the words one by one.

Liu Wei was a little surprised when she heard this: "You mean, when this painting was finished, there was only Concubine Min on it? But afterward, someone added someone next to it? Who added it? Concubine Min? Or..."

"I don't know." It was because he didn't know, so after many years, Rong Leng saw this painting again, and saw that there was an inexplicable extra person on it, so he felt strange.

In fact, from Rong Leng's point of view, this person might really have been added by Concubine Min after the fact.

I remember that day when he left school from the imperial study and went to Changyang Palace, he happened to see Xiang Yi leaving at the gate of the palace.

Rong Leng didn't know why Xiang Yi left Concubine Min in the first place, but Rong Leng knew that Concubine Min was extremely tolerant towards Xiang Yi, and behind the scenes, she did many things for Xiang Yi.

Slightly clenching fingers into the palm of his hand, Rong Leng's breathing became heavy when he thought of Concubine Min's death, and his eyes became extremely cold.

Liu Wei stared at the painting, thoughtful.

After a while, Liu Wei added a few words to the part about Xiang Yi on the rice paper, and then said: "Today I have to enter the palace, how about you?"

Rong Leng said: "It's still not finished yet."

Liu Wei knew that Rong Leng was busy recently, but fortunately, from this statement, it should be almost finished.

Liu Wei nodded and said, "Princess Qinyang's case is not that complicated. If I pressed harder, the murderer would be caught soon, but you and I both know that breaking this case is just the beginning. The mystery of the mystery is still hidden very deep, you..."

Liu Wei spoke very cautiously, looking at Rong Leng's expression, she didn't know how to proceed.

Rong Leng looked at Liu Wei, and stretched out his hand to embrace Liu Wei.

Liu Wei took advantage of the situation and hugged Rong Leng, burying his side face in his strong chest.

"Nothing." After a while, Rong Leng said firmly.

Liu Wei nodded, Concubine Min is very important to Rong Leng, if this matter is dug up again, it will be like reopening the scars on Rong Leng that were almost healed in the past.

Liu Wei doesn't want Rong Leng to feel uncomfortable, but Liu Wei doesn't know how to make Rong Leng feel better, maybe let him do his own thing quietly, busy with the joints of the King of Power, don't bother with this case, don't bother with her How to investigate the case is the best.

……

After lunch, Liu Wei entered the palace again.

Yesterday at the House of Internal Affairs, Eunuch Hang gave Liu Wei a token to enter the palace, so no one needs to pick her up today, she holds the token and can come in and out freely.

After entering the palace, Liu Wei walked quietly towards the House of Internal Affairs following the same route as yesterday.

Just after passing the imperial garden, I heard the voice of a palace maid from behind a certain rockery: "Is it true? Someone died at Princess Xinluo's place too?"

"Is this still fake? It just happened this morning! Princess Xinluo, you know, she was only eight years old, and the nurse next to her reported to Empress Li, and Empress Li said, keep quiet and send the maid's body to the police station. Just bury it, and don't disturb the palaces, let alone hear it in the emperor's ears!"

"But, how did the palace lady die? Is it the same as the previous ones? It's inexplicable..."

"Yes, it's exactly the same, the seven orifices bleed, and the death is horrific."

"Then why is Concubine Li still hiding it? You see, there were several cases of this kind with Shang Palace before, and what happened in the end? In the end, Princess Qinyang died! If Concubine Li is really good for Princess Xinluo, It is time to publicize this matter, just to ask the empress to make the decision, and ask the eminent monk to exorcise evil spirits from the palace of Princess Xinluo..."

"Bah, bah, stop talking nonsense, you're just bewitched. Let me tell you, Concubine Li also wants to do good for Princess Xinluo, but she's lowly in status, and she's not sure that she can ask the empress to make decisions for her. I'm afraid that when the time comes, the palace will be eager to find a solution to this matter, so they will use Princess Xinluo as the scapegoat."

"What do you mean by that?"

"What do you mean, people die every day in the palace, there is a lot of trouble, and the murderer can't be caught, and ghosts and gods are spread all over the harem. Is it too peaceful? When the time comes, the emperor will be the master again and send the disaster star to the temple to live permanently, won't everything be wiped out?"

"You mean, Princess Xinluo is the disaster..."

"Concubine Li's status is not high, and Princess Xinluo is shy and introverted. Now it happens that someone died at their place again. Isn't this just the best candidate to take the blame? You have been in the palace for a long time. Could it be that you still can't see it?" See through this? The Empress Li didn't want to cause trouble, so she sent someone to bury the body, pretending nothing happened, but it was obviously leaked, otherwise I wouldn't talk about it with you, look, even I know I'm afraid the empress has already heard about the matter! Hey, let's see, after all, people die every day in this palace, and I don't know when it will be your turn."

"Go, go, no bad luck, it's none of my business, forget it, let's stop talking, I'll go back first..."

The maid seemed to be really frightened, and left in a hurry.

Seeing the two figures leaving quietly one after the other, Liu Wei stood behind the rockery with a thoughtful expression on his face.

I was delayed on the road, and when I arrived at the House of Internal Affairs, it was a long time late.

Eunuch Hang had obviously been waiting for Liu Wei for a long time, and when he saw Liu Wei coming, he immediately greeted him, and said earnestly, "Master Liu, you have come, yesterday you ordered the miscellaneous family to take Princess Yuping, and all the records of the deaths of the palace people Find out, the miscellaneous family has already made a list, counting the maid who died in Mengxiang Palace of Princess Xinluo last night, there are a total of 19 people, their names, ages, and dates of death are all here."

As Eunuch Hang said, he took out a piece of rice paper from his sleeve and handed it to Liu Wei.

Liu Wei took it, unfolded it, browsed up and down, and asked, "Does your father-in-law have the architectural drawings of the palace?"

"Ah?" Eunuch Hang was stunned for a moment, and asked in puzzlement, "What do you want the royal palace drawings for?"

"I have my own use."

Eunuch Hang was a little hesitant. It stands to reason that although palace drawings related to the structure of the imperial city have always been archived in the House of Internal Affairs, they have never been leaked.

After all, this involves the safety of the imperial city. If the blueprints are obtained by people with malicious intentions, it may cause a catastrophe for the palace.

But the Master Liu in front of him doesn't look like someone with evil intentions, besides, he is a person specially appointed by the emperor, so there should be an exception...

After thinking about it again and again, Eunuch Hang finally gritted his teeth, turned around and walked inside.

Seeing him leave, Liu Wei didn't say much, just stood there looking at the list in her hand.

So Liu Wei looked at the ten lines of words back and forth for a long time.

Until Eunuch Hang came back and invited them into the study together.

Liu Wei entered the study room, and Eunuch Hang sent people to guard the door strictly, and then unfolded the blueprint of the imperial city that had just been taken out of the warehouse, and spread it in front of Liu Wei.

Liu Wei immediately looked down.

Eunuch Hang did not forget to remind: "Master Liu, it is against the rules for Zajia to do this. If you met today, you must not tell other people, otherwise, Zajia's life will really be over."

Liu Wei smiled and said without raising her head: "Eunuch Hang is in charge of the House of Internal Affairs. His status is valuable and he has won the trust of the emperor. Besides, this action of Eunuch is to help me solve the case, so it will never end."

After hearing this, Eunuch Hang knew that this lord would not make a fuss, so he let out a long breath and felt relieved.

Liu Wei was in Eunuch Hang's study, looking at the blueprint of the imperial city, and it took him an hour to see it.

During the period, Eunuch Hang was called out to do some errands, and when he came back, he saw Liu Wei was still watching.

In other words, although the drawing is large and has many details, even if you look at it inch by inch, bit by bit, you won't be able to look at it for so long.

Just when Eunuch Hang thought Liu Wei would see the world grow old and the sea dry up, Liu Wei suddenly moved.

Liu Wei's eyes lit up, and she stood up abruptly. The sudden huge movement made Eunuch Hang tremble and tremble all over.

"My lord?" Eunuch Hang called out.

Liu Wei frowned, looked at several parts of the picture clearly again, and looked at the list of people in the Palace of Death in her hand, and couldn't help snorting: "That's how it is!"

"My lord, what did you find?" Eunuch Hang immediately stepped forward and followed Liu Wei's line of sight to look at the blueprint and list, but he couldn't see anything.

Liu Wei was not in the mood to explain, but suddenly thought of something.

It was a night not long ago, that night, she and Rong Leng entered the palace together, after seeing Rong Fei, they went to Puxiang Palace.

But in Puxiang Palace, I met two maids, one named Xiang'er and the other named Qin'er, they were arguing about Princess Yuping's life, and finally Xiang'er left, but Qin'er stayed behind. After coming down to the palace, Jing took out the incense paper money that had been prepared, and paid homage to Princess Yuping.

This matter itself is nothing, nothing more than a little palace maid commemorating her old master who died young, secretly going back to pay respects, but at that time Liu Wei always felt that she had overlooked something, but she still couldn't grasp the point, and the situation moved to Now, Liu Wei is also gradually forgetting about this matter, but just now, looking at the blueprint and the list, Liu Wei suddenly remembered what it was like to be ignored by herself that day.

He copied a piece of rice paper from the side of the desk, picked up the pen from the pen holder, Liu Wei was about to dip the ink, but when he found that the inkstone was dry, he frowned, and reflexively said: "Grind."

Next to Liu Wei was only Eunuch Hang, and Eunuch Hang naturally knew that this sentence was addressed to him, but as a great eunuch, he was used to being superior, and he was able to be respectful to Liu Wei because the other party was an official of the former court , is deeply ordered by the emperor, and indeed has some skills, and within a long time, he penetrated the fatal wound on Princess Qinyang's body, but his respect for this lord does not mean that he will be commanded by this person.

He is a dignified eunuch, but he doesn't treat everyone like a grandson.

Eunuch Hang frowned and did not move, saying that he was the head of the House of Internal Affairs, not some little palace man who burned incense and studied ink.

But before his protest was over, he suddenly received a stare from the Qingjun man beside him, followed by a coercive sentence from the other side: "Yan Mo!"

Eunuch Hang looked back at Liu Wei's angry and impatient face, swallowed his saliva, picked up the ink stick, poured some tea into the inkstone tray, and stirred it crazily.

When the ink came out, Liu Wei picked up the brush, dipped it in the ink, and danced on the rice paper... and began to draw.

Eunuch Hang didn't know what the lord was drawing, first he saw it was a mess, and then it was a mess. Just when he thought that Master Liu was just scribbling for nothing, he saw that the other party took away the pen, and then reversed the messy painting Coming over, suddenly, the originally strange picture turned into a picture of four images from another angle.

The four images are the theory of Taoism.

Four elephants, yin and yang, heavenly stems and earthly branches, besides the four elephants, there are gossip. Although Eunuch Hang can't understand most of the picture in front of him, he can vaguely see that there are shadows of gossip.

"Sir, this is..."

"Can't see?" Liu Wei put down her pen, glanced at Eunuch Hang, and said, "I didn't expect that this case was really related to ghosts and gods."

When Eunuch Hang heard it, he was frightened: "Your Excellency is saying? Is it really a monster?"

"I don't know if it's a monster, but the other party really wants to do something like a monster." Liu Wei pointed to the position of the Taiyin in the four-element diagram, and said: "The Taiyin is divided into Huoli and Zhenlei. Look, this is where?"

Liu Wei said, and moved his hand to a certain place on the blueprint of the imperial city. Eunuch Hang looked at it, saw the words marked on the blueprint, and said, "Suixiang Palace?"

Liu Wei pointed to another place and said, "The Shaoyin position is given to Zedui and Tiangan. Look, where is this?"

Eunuch Hang found that location again in the four-element map and the blueprint of the imperial city, and said, "Mengxiang Palace?"

"The sun is Naifeng Xun and Shuikan, here."

Eunuch Hang looked over again, this time he had vaguely understood something, his eyes became strange, and he murmured: "Li Xianggong..."

"Shaoyang is located in Naigen Mountain and Kundi..."

This time, before Liu Wei finished speaking, Eunuch Hang had already muttered to himself: "Lengxiang Palace..."

Liu Wei hooked her lips, and finally pointed her finger at the middle of the four palaces, and tapped there, but said nothing.

But Eunuch Hang already understood what Liu Wei meant.

At the place Liu Wei pointed at, there are three big characters that stand out.

Eunuch Hang let out a long breath, endured the creepy feeling, gritted his teeth and said, "Pu...Puxiang Palace..."

Liu Wei said bluntly: "Someone kills people in the image position of the Taiji gossip, and the one surrounded in the middle is the Puxiang Palace. Someone is offering sacrifices to Princess Yuping in a special way. On the list of 19 people you gave me, 12 The people all come from the four surrounding palaces, including Princess Qinyang, and the other seven people should be the result of the murderer's deceit."

"No..." Liu Wei hadn't finished speaking yet, but Eunuch Hang had a pale face, fixed his eyes on the four-image picture, and asked in panic: "The other seven people you mentioned are the last seven on the list?"

Liu Wei glanced at the list and said, "Yes."

Mr. Hang said: "This is what the Zajia wants to tell the adults. The last seven people, why the Zajia are listed together is because these seven people have one thing in common, they... all come from Puxiang Palace... ..."

In other words, these seven people were all people who had served Princess Yuping before.
