Chapter 73

If you insist on sticking to his bullshit beliefs, you will ruin your own future.Fortunately, I'm not as stupid as him, and I changed my family in time to be where I am today. "

Jia Le clenched his fists angrily: "You are not allowed to insult Master."

"With his pig head, he is worthy of being a master. Only you fool can take his words as holy words. I won't give up until I drive you fool away." He Qingdong uttered evil words and twisted arrogantly Turn your head away, don't want to talk to him anymore.

Jia Le was furious, and lifted a big stone by his feet.

When he came to his senses, he saw He Qingdong lying down powerlessly and motionless, with blood all over his head.

"I killed someone." With this thought in his mind, Jia Le was stunned, and after a while he woke up, covering his head and running away desperately.

57. Quickly solve the case

The sky was twilight, breakfast was prepared in the imperial dining room, and the eunuchs carried the food boxes on their shoulders and handed them to the emperor's bedroom. The emperor saw that the person who delivered the meals was a young eunuch, and the chief and deputy chiefs were not there, which was very unruly.Asked strangely: "Where is the head of the dining room? Why don't you come to serve and send some little eunuchs instead?"

He Qingdong's proud disciple Xiao Shun was the one who took the lead in delivering the meal, and said with a smile, "Where is the Chief Manager going? Deputy Manager He is not on duty today..."

Just as he was talking, Jia Le ran over out of breath, and quickly knelt down to pay his respects.

The emperor said: "Every time you eat, you will deliver it yourself, and you will tell me allusions about food. I am still waiting to hear your story. Why are you being lazy today?"

"Yes, this servant is looking for good food stories every day to tell the emperor." Jia Le wiped the sweat from his head, and couldn't help scratching his wrist.

It is impolite to tickle in front of the emperor. The emperor noticed it and asked, "What's wrong with you? Did you cut the yam?"

"Oh... ah, yes." Jiale responded in a timely manner. Peeling and deboning are usually done by small handymen. He doesn't do such things as peeling yams, but he doesn't know why his wrists itch. , Hearing what the emperor said, he reacted accordingly.

After breakfast, Xiao Shun led the food delivery team to go back to the imperial dining room. As soon as he went out of the palace, he saw Bao Qi summoned to meet the king. Seeing Xiao Shun, Bao Qi said: "Your master seems to be suffering from heat, Xisan is resting, go to the pharmacy and get a bowl of fenugreek drink."

Jia Le's expression changed drastically.

Baoqi said: "I met him at Jingyunmen, he was not feeling well and asked me to tell you, I want you to go there quickly."

Xiao Shun hurried to the pharmacy and brought a bowl of fennel to drink.

There is a quiet room in the West No. [-] House, with dense shade, surrounded by a small house, which blocks the sunlight and is very shady.

Xiao Shun brought the medicine and knocked on the door: "Master, Lord Bao said that you have some heatstroke, so I brought the medicine here."

The people in the room said in a muffled voice, "Bring it in."

Xiao Shun brought the medicine in, because there were several sycamore trees in front of the house, and a frame of vines in the back, which blocked the sunlight and made the room look a bit dark, only someone was lying on his side facing the wall.

"Put the medicine on the table, you go out." The person on the bed said in a muffled voice.

Xiao Shun didn't dare to ask more questions, and retreated lightly.

Jia Le told stories with the emperor as usual, and then urged the inheritor of the imperial dining room to prepare lunch.

At three o'clock in the morning, a scream came out from the Garden of Compassionate Ning, which immediately alarmed the whole palace. The scream was fine, but the problem was that a corpse was found in the garden, and this corpse was He Qingdong, the deputy head of the imperial dining room.

The emperor was furious. Someone actually committed murder in the palace garden, which is not bad, and immediately ordered a thorough investigation of the case.After receiving the order, the subordinate officials immediately sent the most powerful people to investigate the case.

The person in charge of this case is Di Qiu, the most famous detective in the country. It is said that this person is a descendant of Di Renjie, a Tang Dynasty detective.That's why there is a nickname called Detective Qisha, and the perpetrators are all terrified and frightened when they hear his name, and Jiale is no exception, feeling uneasy.

Di Qiu checked the scene first, asked the first person who found the body, and then asked: "Who was the last person who saw the deputy director?"

Xiao Shun stood up tremblingly: "Master felt unwell today and asked me to take medicine. I saw him at that time."

"When?"

"About the first quarter of the morning."

"Has he met anyone before?"

"Master said that someone made an appointment with him before Maoshi."

"Do you know who asked him to meet?"

Xiao Shun replied again: "He didn't say who it was, I think his attitude should be someone with similar status to him."

"So is there anything wrong with him?"

"Master is very kind to everyone. If there is someone who is not right with him, it is the newly appointed chief executive, He Jiale. The two often fight openly and covertly, and sometimes quarrel."

Di Qiu got this important information and directly questioned Jia Le: "Where are you at Maochu today?"

Jia Le lowered his head: "I entered the palace at the right time, and entered the imperial dining room to prepare the emperor's meal."

"Is there any evidence?"

"The servants in these imperial dining rooms are all witnesses."

Di Qiu asked the other guards: "You all saw him working in the imperial dining room, didn't you ever leave?"

All the officers in the dining room nodded: "Yes, I only left for one meal in the middle."

Di Qiu nodded, and then looked at Jia Le: "The imperial dining room is only a wall away from the Ci Ning Garden, so there is enough time to commit crimes during this period."

Jia Le blushed: "You can't suspect me as a murderer just because you heard that I was at odds with Vice President He. I left for a while, but I just felt too bored, so I went out for a walk."

"So you haven't been to the Garden of Compassion this morning?"

"Of course." Jia Le replied decisively, and couldn't help scratching his wrist.

The emperor anxiously waited for the news, and when he heard Di Qiu's request to see him, he sent him to see him immediately.

"Did you ask me to find the murderer?"

"Exactly, the minister has already solved the case." Di Qiu replied confidently. Everyone was shocked when they heard it. It took less than two hours from the discovery of the case to the solution of the case. He is indeed a world-renowned master of crime solving.

The emperor was overjoyed when he heard this: "Quickly tell me, which guy is so bold that he dares to commit murder in the palace?"

Di Qiu glanced at the relevant personnel and pointed at them: "You are the murderer."

Everyone followed his fingers and saw him pointing at Jia Le, everyone was shocked. Jia Le had a kind temper and kind heart, and his appearance was cute and cute. No matter how he looked at it, he didn't look like a murderer.

The emperor didn't believe it either: "What's going on? Tell me clearly."

Bao Qi jumped out first: "You are talking nonsense, Jia Le has been telling stories to the emperor since the beginning of the morning, and then prepared imperial meals in the dining room, many people are watching."

Di Qiu smiled slightly, not caring about his fire-breathing eyes, and said confidently: "Because the time of killing was not at Chenshi, the deceased was killed at Maochu."

Xiao Shun was surprised: "How is it possible? I obviously delivered medicine to Master at the beginning of the morning."

Di Qiu didn't answer first, and said: "Why do you say that He Qingdong was killed at Maoshi? Because there were traces of dew on his trousers, and the dew dried up before Chenshi, so he was killed at Maochu. Let's look at him again. There are also leaves of delphinium that are unique to the Cining Garden on the shoe, and there is no trace of dragging at the scene, which shows that he was killed in the Cining Garden. He was killed by that person hitting the back of the head with a stone."

Xiao Shun couldn't figure it out: "But at Chenshi, I delivered medicine to Master, and he asked me to put the medicine on the table and let me go out."

Di Qiu asked: "That room is shaded by trees and vines at the front and back, and the room is very dark. You saw someone lying on the bed, but are you sure it's your master?"

"That man was lying facing the wall, I didn't see his face..." Xiao Shun stammered in fright, "Could it be...couldn't that man be Master?"

"I think, you didn't hear that He Qingdong asked you to bring the medicine, did someone tell you?" Di Qiu asked again.

Xiao Shun trembled in fright: "I haven't seen the master himself, it was the little prince Pingnan who said he met the master at Jingyun Gate and asked me to bring the medicine to the master."

Baoqi was angry: "What do you mean? You mean I lied?"

Di Qiu still said calmly: "He Qingdong was killed when he was Mao, but the young prince claimed to have seen him at Chenchu. He wanted to delay He Qingdong's murder so that he could create an alibi for the murderer?"

Bao Qi waved her teeth and fists: "You keep saying that Jia Le is the murderer, all this is just your speculation, where is the evidence? Where is the evidence?"

"My lord, it doesn't mean that you can obliterate everything you have done if you have a loud voice. The evidence is in the hands of the murderer." Di Qiu walked over leisurely, and suddenly stretched out his hand to pinch Jia Le's wrist. "Look."

Everyone looked at Jiale's wrist, and saw that there were some small red rashes the size of rice grains on his wrist and the back of his hand, but there was nothing unusual about the rest.

"Can you tell me how you got those rashes on your wrists and back of your hands?"

Jiale's teeth chattered: "How do I know, maybe it was made by peeling yams."

"The cut yam will itch on the back of your hands, but it won't cause a rash." Di Qiu looked carefully at the rash on Jiale's hands, "These rashes on your hands are caused by accidentally getting Agrimony pollen, And Agrimony only blooms around Maoshi, so you must have come into contact with Agrimony around Maoshi. And there is only one place in the palace where there is Agrimony."

Di Qiu paused for a while and didn't continue. He glanced at the eunuch Zhang De'an, and Zhang De'an suddenly understood: "A while ago, the Queen Mother's birthday, the governor of Yunnan presented several pots of Agrimony, because the Queen Mother likes it, so he planted it in the corner of the Cining Garden Under the brook pavilion."

Di Qiu turned to Jia Le again: "You said you didn't go to the Garden of Compassion this morning, so what's the matter with the rash on your hands that only Agrimony can cause?"

Jia Le was covered in cold sweat, and Di Qiu continued to ask: "So
