There is no moon tonight, and the stars in the sky don't know where they went, but they didn't show up.The whole sky seemed to be soaked in ink, it was boundless black.

"Knock-knock-knock-"

At the gate of a house on the outskirts of Mobei, a thin man was wearing a veiled hat, so his face could not be seen clearly.He walked up the steps, turned around and looked around, then raised his hand and knocked the door bolt rhythmically.

The door creaked and was pulled open, and the people inside immediately exclaimed in a low voice: "My lord, you are finally here!"

The man didn't answer, and walked into the inner courtyard without even stopping.

There were only a few candles burning in the main room, and the dim light outlined the man's exquisite facial features. There was no trace of blood on his pale skin, and with the moon-white gown on his body, he looked like an ice sculpture in the snow.

The person who opened the door just now was dressed in black and vertical brown, it was Han Xi.He brewed hot tea and brought it to him. It was a green and white glazed lotus flower teacup with very thin gold threads on the mouth. If you look closely, you can see the emperor's seal in red on the bottom of the cup and the saucer.

When he was in the palace, he was Yin Shu's biggest confidant and Mo Yuan's leader, and this time Yin Shu secretly went to Mo Bei and sent him alone to follow him secretly.He bought this small house on the outskirts of the city early in order to meet Yin Shu in time.

At this moment, Han Xi knelt down in front of the desk and put the teacup down, only then did he notice that the man sitting on the table still seemed to have trouble with his right wrist: "Sir, do you need to take care of your hand again?"

Yin Shu took off the veiled hat, covered his injured wrist with his sleeve, ignored the other party's words, and said indifferently, "Do something for me."

"Yes, my lord." Han Xi didn't say much, but replied respectfully.

"Help me find a reason to release that Buddha cultivator." Yin Shu picked up the teacup with one hand, and slowly brushed the sash with the tip of the other finger. The candlelight was reflected in his eyes, but it seemed too dark to see the light.

Han Xi raised his head slightly: "Why bother." He said and scratched his neck with his palm: "Why don't you?"

Yin Shu's hand holding the teacup paused, a cold light flashed in his eyes, and he saw a piece of dark green tea in the cup, which slowly opened in the hot water, and then slowly sank into the bottom of the cup: "First Keep it."

Han Xi wanted to say something, but Yin Shu glanced over: "What's going on in the capital?"

"Our people have already released the news, and now it's all about what happened 13 years ago, and people in the palace are panicking."

"Oh?" Yin Shu finally had a playful expression on his face, and the corners of his lips curled up, as if he was very interested in this topic, "What did you say?"

"Everything is according to your lord's orders. Now there is a lot of rumors about the injustice of the emperor's position in the government and the public. In order to calm the storm, your majesty ordered to arrest a few people who took the lead in making trouble, but they were all irrelevant. It is said that your majesty can't sleep or eat now. Ann, I have been declared the imperial physician several times."

Yin Shu sneered: "It's not enough, it's not enough. What about Deng?"

"No news yet." Han Xi didn't dare to say anything more, but knelt down and waited for Yin Shu's order. .

"I want to muddy the water a little more." Yin Shu shook the teacup in his hand, and the piece of tea rose from the bottom of the cup again, swimming in the vortex, splashing a few drops of tea.He said quietly, "There is a saying that 'falling flowers have intentions, flowing water is ruthless'."

Suddenly, there was a crackling sound, and Yin Shu flew out the teacup with one hand, and smashed it hard on the window lattice, startling the two crows that were parked there.

"My lord!" The kneeling man gasped and said tremblingly, "That is a gift from His Majesty on your birthday."

But Yin Shu snorted coldly, and then laughed slowly. The laughter was sharp and arrogant, piercing the sky.

In the dark corner, the tea cup that was broken into powder could never be restored to its original shape, and the seal on the porcelain was blinking red, but no one held it in his hand anymore.

***

The autopsy room run by Jiang Yu was in the cellar below the county government office.

Although there were several ice mirrors around, and the temperature was much lower than outside, Yin Shugang coughed a few times when he approached, choked by the smell of rotting corpses.

When Jiang Yu saw that it was Yin Shulai, he was stunned for a while.

Yin Shu's eyes fell directly on the wine jars in front of him, and he went straight in with a blank expression: "But there is something about the wine?"

Jiang Wu didn't answer.When Xu Liangyin finally entrusted Yin Shu with full authority to investigate the case, in fact, the main reason was that Yigui acted as a guarantor for him.Now that Yigui has been reduced to a prisoner, Yin Shu's identity has naturally become embarrassing.

"What?" Yin Shu showed a mocking expression, "Xu Liangyin didn't say anything, even though Yigui went in, I'm still investigating the case."

Jiang Wu Zuo Hei had an ugly expression on his face.

"Say it quickly." Yin Shu's tone became a little impatient, "I don't have time to talk to you like this." He moved very quickly as he spoke, and before Jiang Wu could react, he picked up the small knife used for dissecting corpses on the table in front of him, In an instant, it was on his neck, "I'll count to three!"

"What are you doing!" Jiang Yuzuo turned pale with shock, "I called someone!"

"Shout!" Yin Shu's tone was light, "You died long ago before people came."

Jiang Wu stiffened his neck and didn't dare to move. Seeing that Yin Shu didn't intend to let go, he said, "It's not that I don't say anything! It's just that the old man and some of his subordinates have searched all over Mobei recently, and have tasted all the ingredients available on the market. Of all the wines I bought, none of them could match what Wang Yun had in mind..."

Yin Shu didn't let go, and said in a calm tone, "What else?"

"What's more... this old man is ignorant and ignorant of alcohol." He suddenly felt a tingling pain in his neck, and said immediately, "Xiao Wu! His ancestors lived in Southern Yunnan. According to his Tell me, this taste seems to be very similar to the Yungu wine his grandfather drank. You can ask him!"

Yin Shu frowned slightly, "Where is Xiao Wuren?"

"He...he's on duty today." Jiang Wu made a trembling voice, "I can find someone to call him!"

After touching a cup of tea, Xiao Wu was called back and saw Yin Shu sitting in the middle of the cellar, playing with a small knife in his hand, with a rather cynical expression.Standing beside him was Jiang Wuzuo with a bitter face, not knowing what was going on.

"He said you know where the wine came from?" Yin Shu raised his eyebrows and asked directly.

"Yes, yes..." Xiao Wu was stunned by the question, but seeing that his master didn't interrupt him, he continued: "My grandfather was a merchant in southern Yunnan. When he came to Mobei decades ago, he met my grandmother. So he stayed. But he has never been used to drinking the wine here in Mobei, and he thinks it tastes too strong. Ever since I was a child, I have always seen him drinking Yungu wine."

As he said that, Xiao Wu went to the shelf next to him and took down a jug of wine: "Here, this is it, I brought it here for Master and the others to smell it."

Yin Shu glanced at Jiang Wuzuo.Just now Jiang Yuzuo was thinking that he could hide a little bit, but he didn't expect to be sold out by his apprentice so soon, and he would stand aside dejectedly, not daring to look at Yin Shu.

Xiao Wu didn't notice anything wrong at all, so he said in a calm and unhurried manner: "My lord, why don't you smell it?" He opened the lid of the altar, and then lifted the red cloth covering it.

For a while, the slight aroma of fermented soybeans wafted out along with the smell of wine, diluting the stinking smell of rotting corpses a bit, and even Jiang Wuzuo couldn't help sniffling his nose.

"Well, it's really good wine." Yin Shu sniffed it closer, and pulled the corner of his mouth, as if he liked the taste of the wine very much.

Yin Shu has always been a good wine drinker and has an amazing memory, so he is very sure when he smells it at this time, it is undoubtedly the taste in the two cups in Wang Yun's house, which means that Wang Yun was still drinking with others before his death. Cloud valley wine.

"You said your grandfather was from southern Yunnan." Yin Shu closed the wine jar and asked Xiao Wu, "Then where does he usually buy wine?"

"This..." Xiao Wu thought for a while and said, "As far as I know, there is no place that sells Yungu wine in Mobei, so he can't buy it directly here."

"Oh?" Yin Shu raised his eyebrows, it seems that this matter is indeed getting more and more interesting.

Xiao Wu continued: "So every time there is a caravan from Southern Yunnan, my grandfather will let them bring some." Xiao Wu looked at Yin Shu.

Yin Shu took the jar of wine and looked at it carefully for a while: "Then can you keep this jar for me?"

"Of course! You can take it!" Xiao Wu was startled, not knowing what Yin Shu meant, "If you like it, there are many in my grandfather's house!"

Yin Shu stopped answering, staring at the wine jar, thinking about the ins and outs of the whole thing.

That night, someone went to Wang Yun with Yungu wine. The two had a pleasant conversation at first, and then for some reason, this person took advantage of his unpreparedness and added a life that could not kill people into Wang Yun's wine. Shouwu, but it was precisely this glass of Yungu wine mixed with raw Shouwu that made Wang Yun's liver disease worse that night, and finally killed Wang Yun.

After Wang Yun's death, someone tried to pretend that he had hanged himself and hung his body from a beam.

It is now known that one of the suspects is Li Laosan. After taking the money, he did appear at the scene of the crime on the night of the [-]th, so is he the one who went to find Wang Yun with wine?

Yin Shu continued to think, recalling every word that Widow Fan had said.

She said that when she was at the gate of the palace, she heard the commotion.This proves that Wang Yun is definitely not the only one in the house.At that time, Li Laosan was seen by Widow Fan standing at the door, which meant that he was not the one in the room.

At the very beginning, the authors said that Wang Yun, who was hanging from the beam of the house, needed at least two people to hold him down.

A flash of lightning flashed through his mind, Yin Shu Gujie tapped on the wine jar, he was sure that Li Laosan must have been there at the time.But the question now is, if he wasn't the only one there, then who was the one drinking with Wang Yun in the house?

That person never leaked any clues from beginning to end.

Originally, the appearance of Li Laosan had confirmed all Yin Shu's previous guesses and plans.The snake had already come out of the hole, but it was not Li Laosan, but the murderer who had to kill Li Laosan in order to protect himself.It was this murderer in the shadows who was watching what they were doing all the time, so that he could strike at any time, which made the whole thing confusing.

But since there were two people, why did Widow Fan only bump into one person, and why did the night watchman say that she didn't see anyone else coming out of the palace?

Thinking of this, Yin Shu rushed to Jiang Yuzuo who shrank aside and said, "Hey, let me borrow it from your apprentice." After saying that, he couldn't help but say, regardless of whether the black-faced old man agreed or not, he waved to Xiao Wu, and the round-faced little Wuzuo immediately turned his back. After a while.

The two came to Wang Yun's mansion not long after.

This was the first time Yin Shu came here since Heyi came back to check that day. He took out the courtyard key that Master Li had left for him from his waist.

No one visited for a few days, and the courtyard looked rundown and depressed.

Yin Shu went directly to the main room, went in and picked up the upturned bench on the ground, put it under the beam, stood there and looked carefully again.

Xiao Wu was at a loss and had no idea what Yin Shu was doing.Yin Shu didn't say a word, and after a while, he fought back and forth several times inside and outside the house, and now he stood in the courtyard.

Finally, Xiao Wu couldn't help shouting: "My lord, what are you looking for?"
