Chapter 125 The Big Fool Is a "Fear of Internal Affairs" (1)
Zhuo Yun nodded slightly and said: "Last night, I found out in the Liu Mansion that the current Mrs. Liu seems not to be Mrs. Liu's original wife, but a remarriage. And Liu Mei, the eldest lady of the Liu Mansion, was brought by the current Mrs. Liu to marry. When Liu Mei burned incense for her parents in the mourning hall last night, I felt something strange...it didn't seem very sad."

Yao Shanbao shook his head: "Impossible, maybe she has a motive to kill, but there is no time. She is a weak woman, it is impossible for her to rush from Lianshui Village to Liu Mansion overnight, and then drive from Liu Mansion after killing someone. Go back to Lianshui Village without anyone noticing. Besides, even if these are possible, she can't kill her own mother, right?"

Jiang Rong still had no expression on his face and said: "What is impossible? You women have the most vicious hearts. For money and lust, what can't you do?"

"Captain Jiang seems to be very emotional." Facing the ridicule, Yao Shanbao just smiled slightly, "Then Captain Zhuo, tell me, what do you think?"

Jiang Rong looked at Zhuo Yun and said: "Brother Zhuo, I was not here just now, but I went to the Liu Mansion secretly to inquire again. I heard the maid of the Liu Mansion tell a secret..." Suddenly he stopped and looked at Yao Shanbao With a glance, he seemed hesitant to speak, not knowing whether to continue or not.

Zhuo Yun said: "Sanmei Yao is not an outsider, so tell me what you found out."

"Yes." Jiang Rong stopped wasting time and continued, "I heard from the maid in Liu's mansion that a few months ago, oh, that is, when Liu Mei was just divorced by her husband's family, she actually went back secretly. Go through the Liu Mansion. From what the servant girls of the Liu Mansion said, it seems that Master Liu had done something wrong to Liu Mei at that time, and Mrs. Liu did not help her daughter, so Liu Mei did not stay in the Liu Mansion any longer."

"Ah! Beast!" Yao Shanbao was so angry that he slapped the table hard, "It's really useless to be a father!"

Jiang Rong defended in a low voice: "Master Liu is not her biological father."

Yao Shanbao continued to pat the table: "It's not her own, so she must have been raised since she was a child, right? Besides, even if this Liu Mei is a servant girl of the Liu family, as long as she doesn't sell herself, he can't do that!" squinting her eyes. Looking at Jiang Rong, "How do you feel that Captain Jiang thinks that Master Liu's actions are right?"

"I didn't say that!" Jiang Rong felt that Yao Shanbao was simply making trouble out of no reason, so he ignored her and continued to report the situation to Zhuo Yun, "Brother Zhuo, I even went to Lianshui Village to inquire about it. Miss Yao, do you have someone in Lianshui Village?" A small river, right?"

Yao Shanbao nodded: "Yes."

Jiang Rong: "The small river actually leads all the way to the outside of the city. Liu Mei has little time to walk the dirt road, but more than enough time to walk by water."

Yao Shanbao tried his best to open his eyes wide, looked at Jiang Rong, and said half-paid: "So you think, that night, it is very likely that Liu Mei ran back to Liu Mansion by water to kill someone, and then immediately returned to Lianshui Village by water? Seeing Jiang Rong nodded slightly, Yao Shanbao said, "Impossible! Regarding the cause of Mrs. Liu's death, my second brother has already calculated that the murderer used the ice cubes in the ice room of Liu's Mansion to kill people. Liu Mei is a weak woman." , Excuse me, where does she have the strength to move the ice?"

"Besides, no matter what, Mrs. Liu is also Liu Mei's mother. She is a person, so she wouldn't kill her own parents, would she?"

"It's not impossible at all." Zhuo Yun interrupted Yao Shanbao and said, "We may have been misled by the ice and only locked the murderer as a strong man. Actually, you still remember the murderer in Mrs. Liu's room?" Those hemp ropes? I also thought at the beginning that the hemp ropes were used by the murderer to fix the ice cubes on the beams. But now that I think about it in reverse, the hemp ropes may have more than one effect.”

Yao Shanbao was stunned: "What else?"

Zhuo Yun said: "The scratch marks on the beams of the Liufu ancestral hall were indeed made by the hemp rope left behind. What I thought at the time was that someone took the ice cubes out of the ice room, and then moved the ice cubes with the help of a stool. to the beam of the house, and then fastened to the beam with hemp rope. But now that I think about it, since the murderer used hemp rope, why didn’t he just pull the ice up with the help of hemp rope? I also checked, and the room There is actually a deeper mark on the beam, and I think it was left by the murderer when he used hemp rope to pull the ice onto the beam."

A rope was looped around the beams, with ice cubes tied on one side and people pulling on the other.This way of using tools, according to mechanics, can indeed save a lot of effort.

Yao Shanbao squinted her eyes slightly, and the scene automatically appeared in her head. She thought, if according to Zhuo Yun's words, then the previous inference that the murderer was a young and strong warrior... may not be valid.In this way, the scope of the murderer is expanded, which is even more difficult.

Both Jiang Rong and Yao Shanbao are quick-witted people, Zhuo Yun only clicked, and they suddenly realized.

Yao Shanbao touched his chin with his fingers, his little head was spinning rapidly, and suddenly thought of something, he asked: "Second brother, do you still remember that when Aunt Jin came out of the ice room that day, she said that she found a jade pendant in the ice room? Looking at Mr. Liu's appearance, it seems that only the master of the Liu family can have such a jade pendant. That jade pendant is either Master Liu Er, or Young Master Liu Er? Why did you ignore this point?"

Zhuo Yun smiled slightly and said, "The jade pendant was brought over by Jin Mudan, the grandmother of the Liu family, and she found it in the ice room, but did the murderer leave it there, or did someone else deliberately do it in order to frame her up? No one knows this."

Yao Shanbao was slightly startled, looked sideways at Zhuo Yun, and opened his mouth slightly: "So, even Aunt Jin is also suspected?"

Zhuo Yun nodded: "Well! You see, first of all, this Jin Mudan has lived in the Liu Mansion for more than 20 years, and she is no stranger to the Liu Mansion than any other master. Secondly, the statement about the return of Grandma Liu's ghost is also the same one she said in the court at that time. It was the first to say this. She said that the woman Xiulian saw that night was not you, Sanmei, but the dead Grandma Liu. After Xiulian heard this, she immediately went crazy. Said that he saw Grandma Liu, and they all died in the end. These dead maids, after autopsy by Uncle Qi, found that they were all poisoned by a kind of poison called Yexihua pollen."

Yao Shanbao continued: "So, in fact, they didn't really see Grandma Liu, but because they were poisoned, so they had a slight hallucination? Then... Zhenniang of Wanhualou, oh, that is, Liu's Mansion The servant girl Nenya who has been serving Grandma Liu before. When the people from the Liu residence grabbed Nengya, she was dressed in a terrifying white dress, and she even disguised herself as Grandma Liu."

Zhuo Yun lowered his eyes and thought for a while, then shook his head suddenly: "This young bud may know some secrets about three years ago, but due to some pressure, she has not been able to tell them for three years. And once a person finds out that he is about to die When you are young, you will want to fulfill your unfulfilled wish. Third sister, you know medical skills. If I guessed correctly, then Nianya must think that she has some incurable disease, so she wants to use Grandma Liu Infiltrated into the Liu residence with his appearance, and said what he had always wanted to say."
