The Demon Concubine of God

Master Chen should not be dead. If he were dead, he would be in a panic and would not have the time to bother coming to the Waterside Tower to find a maid.

Sure enough, under Shen Wen's questioning, the servant said, "To answer the young lady, Master Chen is not dead, but one of his servants and friends died, and Master Chen himself, although he did not die... he was seriously injured and unconscious."

Ok? !

It's not about the pigpen.

Shen Wen said: "Please explain the situation clearly."

After Shen Wen asked this question, the servant had not yet answered, and a few more men came from a distance, looking aggressive, and headed straight towards Shen Wen.

Is it an official?

Shen Wen saw that those people were dressed in formal attire and the materials were better than those of the servants. Some of them were holding iron chains and shackles in their hands. They were obviously constables who were arresting people.

The leader came closer and asked the servant, "Which criminal is disobedient?"

The servant was confident again this time, pointing at Shen Wen and saying, "It's her, it's this woman who didn't allow us to arrest people, and she is also a suspect, sir, arrest her and Yuexian together."

After hearing what the servant said, the officer waved his hand lightly without asking the reason, and his brothers behind him surrounded Shen Wen.

"Zi Tong has been away with you for so long, what have you been doing?"

When Shen Wen heard this sound, his ears danced.

Right!

Isn't there a guard? Although it's a bit pretentious, it saves a lot of trouble, right?

Shen Wen instantly changed his attitude and went to Chu Yanqiu's side affectionately and obediently.

She gritted her teeth and smiled at him, "Zi Tong is a very easy name to call. You all know who I am, so why are you pretending?" As she said that, she put her arm around his waist and grabbed his waist.

Chu Yanqiu remained calm. He also put his arm around Shen Wen's shoulders, put his left hand on her chin, gave her a warning look, and said softly, "Be good, only good beauties get candy."

Shen Wen wanted to spit at him, but she had to endure it at this moment, so she had to suppress her temper and pretend to be obedient.

When the rest of the people saw Chu Yanqiu, they were all shocked, then lowered their heads and obeyed, like servants.

Chu Yanqiu held Shen Wen in his arms and walked around in front of them, then returned to the spot and asked the chief constable, "Tell me, what happened in this mansion? It actually alarmed you. Who went to the government office to report the murder?"

The head constable bowed his head and said, "Master Bing, it was the groom beside Master Chen who reported the murder..."

Chu Yanqiu said: "Oh, then something really happened, it's just in time for me to go and take a look. It's your master who came in person this time, right?"

The constable said, "Master Bing, my master has come in person. I will take the suspect back to report first."

Chu Yanqiu put his fingers around Shen Wen's shoulders, elegantly rolled up a strand of hair that she had put on her shoulders, and said, "Suspect? Are you talking about my son?"

The constable didn't understand what happened earlier. He turned his head to look at the dumbfounded servant, who lowered his head and replied, "Mr. Bing is not Miss Shen, but the girl Yuexian."

Chu Yanqiu nodded and said, "Yes, that's right. My wife slept with me last night. I know exactly whether she was at the murder scene or not."

The constable bowed his head and saluted, then took Yuexian away from the Waterside Tower, and the servants also left.

Shen Wen released Chu Yanqiu's hand and said, "I heard that you hold a very high position and have reached the point where you can decide life and death on your own."

Chu Yanqiu raised his eyebrows and loosened his arms around her, standing upright like a minister in a temple, not saying a word, looking down on everyone.

The two girls, Chu Yao and Chu Huan, looked at Chu Yanqiu's indifferent attitude, and the little bit of passion in their hearts gradually died down. They could only stand aside as a background.

Shen Wen saw that they were a little afraid of Chu Yanqiu, and with all the murders happening today, the whole mansion must be shaken, so she said to them: "This is none of your business, go back and take care of yourself, don't come out and cause trouble unless necessary."

The two of them had no choice but to go back quietly.

Then she left without waiting for Chu Yanqiu to agree to take her to the crime scene.

Chu Yanqiu was so angry that he blurted out: "You little bitch who doesn't know the rules." Then he turned around and left.

Shen Wen first went to the pigsty in the kitchen, where she saw that there were no victims or the criminals she had killed. She remained calm and went to the yard of Mr. Chen.

When she first entered the courtyard, some of the servants who were waiting outside to receive instructions turned around and looked at her. One of them walked up to her and asked, "Which courtyard are you from? What are you doing here?"

Shen Wen said: "I followed your second son Chu Yanqiu. Your second son is behind and will be here soon. She asked me to come."

When the servant heard the name of the Second Young Master Chu Yanqiu, he did not dare to be negligent and immediately made way for her and let her in.

Shen Wen walked into the yard easily, and saw seven or eight corpses covered with white veils on one side of the yard. They were lined up with their heads covered, and someone was performing an autopsy nearby.

Shen Wen just took a few glances and didn't go up to check the body, then went straight to the backyard.

The backyard was bustling with signs of destruction everywhere. There were bloodstains on some steps, doors and corners. The flowers on the east side were half crushed, and drops of blood appeared on the ground within one meter, extending two meters away, followed by a pool of blood. The steps of the main house were also stained with blood in patches, all the way to the first step and the ground.

There were also bloodstains on the door of the main room that appeared to be scattered and sprayed.

As soon as Shen Wen pushed open a corner of the main room's door, the strong smell of blood swept over him, causing Shen Wen to quickly cover his mouth and nose with his sleeves.

After entering the house, the outer room was fine, because it consisted of three long rooms. Shen Wen first went behind the half-partition wall in the middle room, which was the bedroom. The kang in the bedroom was very lively, with bloodstains everywhere, and messy bedding and sheets, not a single place was smooth.

There was also the bloodstain, which was the largest in one palm-sized spot. When the blanket was pulled back, the bloodstain had seeped into the kang soil. The blood from this spot extended all the way to the kang edge and then dripped onto the ground.

Shen Wen went to the other two rooms, and apart from the messy bedding and other items, there was no bloodstain.

At this moment, an old official who was recording the scene saw her. He immediately scolded Shen Wen, "Hey? Where are you from, girl? How could you be so ignorant of the rules and break in here? This is a serious crime scene. How could someone just come in casually? It's really unlucky."

Shen Wen didn't take it seriously. She came out after she had finished her investigation.

But the old official refused to let her go easily and continued to follow her and scold her.

The two of them went out of the door and ran into someone. The old official looked up and saw that it was his two superiors, Wen Qingyun, the assistant minister of the Ministry of Justice, and Ji Zichu, the doctor of the Ministry of Justice. So she couldn't wait to pass Shen Wen and greet the two masters and said, "You two masters have come at the right time. There is a girl who is disturbing the officials' investigation. She is very suspicious. I just happened to see her coming out of the main bedroom. Please give me some advice."

Ji Zichu then saw Shen Wen, and he quickly called her: "It's you, Miss Shen, why are you here?"

Shen Wen was also surprised to see the little official Zichu and asked, "I was about to ask you, Zichu, why are you here?"

Only then did Shen Wen realize that Zichu, whom he had always believed to be a minor yamen runner, was actually the son of the Ji family, and his official position was not low.

Shen Wen was a little depressed, so he was not active in the subsequent case handling process.

The runners from the Ministry of Justice were quite careful in handling the case, and after a while, they had pretty much figured out the whole story of the case.

It turned out that Master Chen had invited several officials' sons to come to the courtyard to drink and listen to music. After midnight, each of them took their lovers to rest. Among them, Wen Shilang's nephew and his brother-in-law were resting in the east of the main house in the backyard, each with a singer from Master Chen's family.

In the room to the side of the main house, the one who was resting was the boss Ma...

That is, the old official named Ma Xitang and his two relatives. One was his wife's cousin, and the other was his nephew. At the time of the incident, these two people were resting with two of their own servants. After investigation, it was found that these two servants were originally from Master Chen, and later Master Chen gave them to them.

After the incident, all of them died and no one survived.

Also killed was another groom of Uncle Chen. After examination, it was found that his heart was ripped out when he died.

"The maid was the last one to die. She was tied up when we arrived, and she died a short while later," said Captain Zhou, who reported the case. Captain Zhou also said, "We examined the woman's body. From the features on the body and the witnesses at the scene, it was this woman who killed the person. But we still need to verify whether she went crazy and killed the person after taking the drug."

After Wen Qingyun and others heard this, he ordered people to carry the female corpse up.
