Detective in the Red Chamber

Zhou Changshi leaned on one side, staggered back a few steps, and looked at the actress inexplicably in amazement, seeing that she was lying on the ground trembling, she really didn't look like a cruel murderer, so he couldn't help questioning, "" Mr. Sun is not talking nonsense, is he? How could it be such a coincidence that Zhou just kicked the real murderer with a random kick?"

"Master Zhou, don't be humble."

Sun Shaozong said solemnly, "Actually, I really didn't suspect her until she was kicked to the ground by Zhou Changshi..."

As he said that, Sun Shaozong suddenly stepped forward and clasped the woman's wrist, then pressed her left palm upwards, and slowly pressed it on the ground, explaining in his mouth, "I suddenly found that she made a strange reaction, and she was It was this reaction that gradually opened my eyes!"

While speaking, I saw that the actress's face was full of fear first, and then her facial features tightened suddenly, as if she felt something extremely painful, and with a desperate struggle with her left hand, she escaped from Sun Shaozong's oppression.

"Yes, that's the reaction!"

Sun Shaozong straightened up, stared at the woman with a sneer and said, "At that time, you got kicked in the lower abdomen, but the back of your left hand just hit the ground lightly and lightly. If you were an ordinary person, your first reaction would naturally be to protect your lower abdomen, but But you immediately raised your left hand high, and only then did you think of the pain in your lower abdomen."

"That is to say, for you, the pain caused by that light knock is even more powerful than Zhou Changshi's kick."

"This is really unreasonable!"

"So I carefully observed the back of your hand, and found that it was just a little strange rosy, which should be left by friction or scratching. Other than that, I found no signs of swelling, fractures, or trauma."

"In that case, where did your severe pain come from?"

"At that time, a flash of inspiration flashed in my mind, and I suddenly connected the clues I found before!"

"Inside the deceased's mouth, there are traces of someone covering his mouth, and there are traces of violent friction on the wall behind him, but the back of his head, which is close to the wall, is a bit too clean."

"At first, I always wondered how and why did the scratches on the wall get there?"

"It wasn't until I matched the wound on the back of your hand with the scratch that I realized it!"

"You should have offered a kiss to Zhu Er after calling to open the toilet door, and sealed Zhu Er's mouth with your own."

"Before committing the crime, because you were worried that Zhu Er would break free from the entanglement of teeth, you put your left hand on the back of Zhu Er's neck -- so Zhu Er was stabbed in the heart by a sharp weapon, and when he began to struggle desperately, he was pressed against the wall It is the back of your left hand that is rubbing!"

"And after the paint leather on the wall was rubbed off, many small burrs were exposed. Under the fierce struggle and friction, some of them pierced into your flesh. It should be a logical inference, right?"

"And this is exactly the source of your inexplicable pain!"

Speaking of this, Sun Shaozong stared at the woman with burning eyes and asked, "But I don't know, is what I said right or not?"

Before the female actress could respond, Jiang Yuhan was the first to be unable to hold back, and stepped forward to grab the female actress' left hand, and began to knead the back of her hand!

"Ah~!"

Before she exerted much strength, the woman's facial features shifted in pain, and she screamed, "Leader, please forgive me! I... I did have a wooden splinter on the back of my hand, but it was somewhere... somewhere else!"

How can Jiang Yuhan believe it?

Not only didn't stop, but added a little bit of strength, and the delicate face was full of smirks, "You maid! Now, do you still want to quibble? If it's really a wooden thorn that was planted elsewhere, then it will be the result of being caught by the grandson." Why didn't you say it before the adults pointed it out?!"

"Wrong, wrong!"

There was obviously more than one wooden thorn on the back of the woman's hand. She was rubbed so hard that her painful facial features were distorted, but she still screamed, "Master Sun didn't ask about it just now, slave... how did slave know, this The wooden thorn is actually related to Zhu Er's murder?!"

Although what she said was not completely unreasonable, but now, how could Jiang Yuhan be willing to listen?

Just as she was about to make her suffer more, Zhou Changshi at the side suddenly sneered and said, "Team leader Jiang is so impatient, is it because he wants to beat him into a trick?"

After speaking, he questioned Sun Shaozong again, "Master Sun, just because of the few wooden thorns on the back of her hand, I'm afraid she can't be convicted of a felony murder?"

Sun Shaozong smiled slightly, and said confidently, "If it's an ordinary wood thorn, it won't work - but the wooden boards in the toilet are all painted, if you pick out the wood thorns from the back of her hand, you can see the same paint." Isn't the color and wood the proofs like a mountain?!"

Jiang Yuhan was overjoyed when she heard this, and hurriedly shouted, "Quick, hurry up and get a few needles too, I want to see if this lowly servant girl dares to complain in front of the ironclad evidence!"

As soon as this order was issued, several opera singers rushed to find the sewing kits.

Jiang Yuhan took a sewing needle and was about to pierce the thorn out of the flesh herself, but the female actress's psychological defense had already collapsed, and she covered her face and said sadly, "He forced me, he forced me!"

"I... I'm just... I just want to play a 'corner'. Zhu Er clearly promised to recommend me to the class leader, but that bastard... that bastard lied to me, but let that bitch Jin Bao Get the benefits!"

Speaking of this, she suddenly put her hand down, and her bloodshot pupils searched back and forth among the crowd, and said through gritted teeth, "It's fine if it's someone else, but everyone in the troupe knows that Jin Bao and I are the most indifferent Deal with it! Since he's playing tricks on me like this, no wonder I'm cruel!"

While speaking, her gaze fixed on a slim woman, and said bitterly, "It's a pity that I killed that adulterer, but I failed to kill you, a rich woman!"

The female actress called 'Jin Bao' was covered with hairs standing on end when she looked at her, and when she saw the eyes of others looking over, she also showed some disdain, and hurriedly said, "Jinfeng! You don't want to spout blood, I and that wish The two have never had any contact, how could it be...how could it be..."

"I bother!"

Jin Feng spat disdainfully, and said contemptuously, "I've even admitted the murder, but you're still covering it up here, I really think I'm stupid..."

"I'm afraid you've made a mistake."

Jiang Yuhan suddenly sighed faintly, "In retrospect, Zhu Er was indeed in front of me, beating around the bush and boasting that you have studied hard recently, and your singing skills have improved a bit--but I have been observing secretly for a long time, and I still think that Jin Bao is more suitable to play Nage Aunt Fu."

The resentment on Jin Feng's face immediately froze, and after a long while, he said in a trembling voice, "So, he... he didn't lie to me?!"

Jiang Yuhan nodded silently.

That Jinfeng's complexion changed, and suddenly he screamed again, "No, I don't believe it! Then Zhu Er is your confidant. If he said good things for me, why would you still praise Jin Bao? He must have lied to you. I, he must have lied to me!"

"cough."

Seeing her hysterical appearance, Sun Shaozong cleared his throat, and said unkindly, "Whether he lied to you or not, I don't know—but the paint leather is all peeling off in pieces, and the wooden thorns are actually not Too likely to leave paint stains."

As he said that, Sun Shaozong spread his hands, "So if you just insisted that it was a wooden splinter rubbed elsewhere, this case is really hard to solve."

"you you you!"

The golden phoenix jumped up from the ground when he heard the words, pointed at Sun Shaozong and said "you" three times, then suddenly rolled his eyes and fell down like a wooden stake.

Chapter 390 Wine Pond Meat Forest

It really is 'poor people, there must be hateful things'!

Seeing the woman fainted by his words, Sun Shaozong couldn't help but sighed secretly, and then ordered, "Su County Chancellor, please take this woman into custody in Daxing County, and re-admit her after she wakes up." Confession."

Su Xingfang was admiring his method of solving the case, but when he heard this, he quickly declined, "How can this be done? Since the case was solved by the Lord himself, how can I, Daxing County..."

"No need to say much, just do it."

Sun Shaozong waved his hand, signaling to Su Xingfang that there is no need to give way, then turned his head and bowed to Zhou Changshi and said, "Since I detained the criminal, if Mr. Zhou was blamed by the prince, Sun would feel really sorry, why don't you accompany him?" How about master Zhou to report to the prince together?"

Zhou Changshi's gaining power in Prince Zhongshun's mansion was naturally not that short-sighted. After thinking about it for a while, he guessed that he was probably afraid of telling stories in front of the prince, so he wanted to explain it himself.

But Sun Shaozong's words are not only high-sounding, he really wants to follow him to the palace, and he can indeed share the blame for him.

Therefore, although Zhou Changshi secretly scolded 'cunning' in his heart, he kept saying 'I wish for it' a few times.

So Su Xingfang called his servants and escorted away the murderous Jin Feng; Jiang Yuhan and Zhou Changshi urged the actors to pack up their bags quickly—since there were murders, today's play must not be sung After going down, as for whether to sing in the future, it depends on King Zhongshun's will.

As for Sun Shaozong, he first went upstairs with Big Brother Cheap and Jia She, explaining the cause and effect, then called out Ruan Rong to explain a few words, and told her not to forget to have Second Sister You sent home.

"Since the master has already experienced it."

But Ruan Rong said with a smile that was not a smile, "It's better to just take him back to our mansion, and save the worry of going back and forth."

tsk~

This Second Sister You is indeed a careless person, and with just a little more work, even this matter has been tricked out.

Sun Shaozong didn't hide it, he just smiled shyly, "I'm just greedy for her body. Now that I've got it, what else is there to worry about? Should I carry it back today, or later? You will take it back for me." It's up to you."

"Bah~"

Ruan Rong spat, "If people listen to Master's words, I'm afraid I'm going to be so sad!"

He said he wanted to defend Second Sister You, but he couldn't help showing a little joy on the lotus powder.

Women these days basically don't dare to expect their husbands to dote on them alone, so as long as they get more favors than other wives and concubines, they will be satisfied.

Sun Shaozong saw her little look of open anger and secret joy, he couldn't help holding her in his arms for a few mouthfuls, and made an appointment to light up the lights at night to fight at night, so Shi Shiran went downstairs.

When I got downstairs, I saw those actors, together with the powerful slaves of the palace, packed a lot of belongings in big and small bags, but how could they leave in time?

But now that the murderer has been taken down, Zhou Changshi has no reason to use them to stand up again, so he simply got on the horse by himself, and invited Sun Shaozong to ride with him.

Although Jiang Yuhan is still busy in the back, but Sun Shaozong has just found out the real culprit, and it is considered as the utmost benevolence. At this time, he might as well appear a little distant, so as not to be involved in Zhou Changshi's internal struggle with him.

So Sun Shaozong obeyed his orders happily, and also took off the rein and got on his horse, and started to chat with Zhou Chang Shixin, who was free from the rein.

To say that Zhou Changshi was born as a serious literati and also used to be the "chief executive of the royal family" who is used to serving others, his words are quite witty - it's just that he unintentionally reveals his unruly nature, but it really makes Sun Shaozong very close to him stand up.

While chatting about interesting things about the capital, Sun Shaozong had a whim in his mind and asked, "I don't know if Mr. Zhou has ever heard of 'Tao Zhu Jin Bei'?"

Seeing that Zhou Changshi's expression froze suddenly, he faltered for a while, and then he laughed and said, "This 'Tao Zhu Jinbei' has been rumored recently, how could Zhou not know about it?"

This expression...

Really let yourself be blindfolded!

Just now, Sun Shaozong suddenly realized that there are people who are capable of making the 'Tao Zhu Jinbei' popular in the capital and are extremely greedy for money. It is hard to count how many people there are, but King Zhongshun must be one of them.

That's why he suddenly opened his mouth to probe, but he didn't expect it to be a hit!

Just confirming that King Zhongshun was the mastermind behind the scenes, Sun Shaozong didn't know whether he should be lucky or depressed.

If someone else set up a trap, they only need to report the danger to the court, and then take it down.

But since King Zhongshun did this...

Even if it is reported to the Ming court, the unlucky one may not be King Zhongshun!

"Master Sun, Master Sun!"

Seeing Sun Shaozong's sudden silence, Zhou Changshi asked suspiciously, "Could it be that there is something strange about this 'Tao Zhu Jinbei'? Otherwise, why would Mr. Sun be so out of his mind when he mentioned it?"

"This……"

Sun Shaozong weighed in his mind for a while, and finally said bluntly, "To be honest, Sun always feels that this thing suddenly rises up, and it seems to contain some kind of conspiracy. If it harms the people because of it, then..."

"Master Sun is too worrying?"

Before Sun Shaozong finished speaking, Zhou Changshi said disapprovingly, "It's just playthings, and now they are only used in casinos. How can they harm the people?"

got~

This time I didn't run away!

As Zhou Changshi, he definitely wouldn't go to a gambling shop that waits for others to have fun, but he told the purpose of Jin Bei. If he didn't participate in this matter, Sun Shaozong would definitely not believe it.

However, it is useless to argue with him about this matter. It is reasonable to wait for an opportunity to discuss it before King Zhongshun.

Therefore, Sun Shaozong just smiled and did not continue to dwell on this topic.

The book does not go into details.

But it was said that the two rushed to the Zhongshun Palace first, and the slave at the gate immediately stepped forward, respectfully fell on the ground, and acted as a dismounting stone for Zhou Changshi.

Another slave also walked up to Sun Shaozong's horse, ready to do the same, but seeing Sun Shaozong's mighty and majestic body clearly, he slowed down involuntarily.

Sun Shaozong was also afraid that he would be trampled on, so he hurriedly dismounted from his horse, slipped the rein into the slave's hand, and followed Zhou Changshi into the gate of the mansion as if nothing had happened.

Sun Shaozong had visited this Zhongshun Prince's Mansion several times, the pavilions and pavilions were as old as before, and even the house servants and maidservants there seemed to be much less than before.

Seeing his intentions, Zhou Changshi explained, "Since we learned that His Majesty wanted to investigate the servants of each family, our lord set an example by first screening the family and dismissing all those whose origins are unclear. "

Although King Zhongshun is known for his unscrupulous actions, he has always obeyed Emperor Guangde's will-this is probably the foundation of his life.

The two were walking forward when someone suddenly called out from the side, "Zhou Mo."

Zhou Changshi stopped and followed the prestige, immediately lowered his body, and said respectfully, "I have seen Mrs. Lu."

But I saw a noble lady walking out of the corridor, huddled in front of her, and before she got close, she asked impatiently, "Where is Qiguan now? Have you ever made things difficult for him?!"

Sun Shaozong was about to salute at first, but he couldn't help but look weird when he heard the shouting and questioning. A few days ago, in order to warn Jia Baoyu, he specially found out the old case of the confidant maid of the prince's side concubine being killed by Jiang Yuhan.

And this Mrs. Lu is one of the heroines in that old case!

But seeing her anxious appearance, she clearly cared for Jiang Yuhan, lest he suffer some grievance, does that look like she has an enmity with Jiang Yuhan?

Could it be that my original inference was wrong?

Or……

Mrs. Lu has been in love with Jiang Yuhan for a long time?

Just thinking about some nasty thoughts, he listened to Zhou Mo's report, "I also ask my wife to learn from you, how dare I make things difficult for the leader Jiang?"

He probably also knew that Mrs. Lu might not believe what he said, so he gestured to Sun Shaozong and introduced, "This is Sun Zhizhong from Shuntian Mansion. When the officer arrived, he had already found out the real culprit. Now Troupe Leader Jiang is rushing back with the troupe up and down, and the officials are afraid that the prince will be impatient, so they will bring Master Sun back to report."

At this time, Sun Shaozong also came back to his senses, and hurriedly bowed and said, "Your Majesty Sun Shaozong, I have seen my wife."

This 'wife' is not the other 'wife', but a third-rank edict granted by the imperial court. In addition to the honor of being the wife of an important official in the court, it is also often given to the prince's side concubine to distinguish it from ordinary concubines.

When Mrs. Lu heard that Sun Shaozong was in person, she immediately covered her mouth and exclaimed, "You are that Sun Shenduan?! Qi Guan often praises you..."

In the middle of saying this, she suddenly closed her mouth tightly, her face flushed like coals of suffocation.
