The key to Chu Xuehai's case is the vendor.
Because he found the red dot on the back of his head, he knew that he had been poisoned by Rouge ink, pointing out that the murderer depended on the vendor. Whoever goes to the chicken vendor and sheep vendor every day to buy fresh chicken inner gold and black sheep armour is the murderer.
If Wu Yiyi also died of Chinese Rouge ink, these two drug introductions must also be used during the medication. Therefore, the key is these two witnesses.
Even they guessed. Naturally, the emperor, Princess peace and others would guess. So we will send someone to threaten the two witnesses.
Chu yunpan went out this time just to get close to the two people.
Chu yunpan took Yu Han and Yu Yang out of Chu's house and got on a pony. Chu yunpan said, "where is it?"
"Heihu Lane in the west of the city." Yu Yang, who was driving outside, said. He gently threw the reins and the carriage drove out.
The weather is not very good these two days. Whether it is day or night, the clouds in the sky are dark and cover the moon.
The little carriage looked lonely as it walked along the street, except that the wind lights on the other side went out clearly in the wind.
The car walked for a full quarter of an hour and finally stopped.
This is the west of the poorest city in the capital. The yard in this area is small and broken. Because of poverty, in order to save light oil, I turned off the light and went to sleep early.
Naturally, this is not Heihu lane, but an alley not far from Heihu lane.
Chu yunpan got out of the car, went out with Yu Yang, and quietly came to Heihu lane. Far away, he saw that there were no lights in rows of small courtyards, but only the one in the middle was still lit.
Chu yunpan's eyes narrowed slightly. You don't have to think about it. It's here.
As soon as he hooked the corner of his lip, he jumped onto the wall and gently stepped on the tile roof with the light on. At last, there was a man lying on the floor of the room with the light on.
"Is it all here?" Chu yunpan whispered.
"Yes." The man turned back, but Chu Feiyang.
Chu yunpan narrowed his eyes and fell down with him. They moved away a tile and saw that it was the main room of the yard, with an eight immortals table in the middle, on which three men were sitting.
In the middle was an old man in grey in his sixties, with two men in coarse cloth in their forties, one thin and one fat on both sides.
Fat Han Yuan stared at them: "you guys and big brother, do you also......" he gave them a timid look.
The old man and the thin man looked at each other and nodded.
The fat man didn't know whether they were the same as himself. In the evening, two mysterious people suddenly came. Shengsheng caught him and finally brought him to the yard.
Then came the old man and the thin man.
The fat man said, "I'm a chicken vendor in the city."
The thin man said, "I'm selling sheep."
The old man nodded: "me, me too..."
The three looked at each other, and then their faces changed.
They are the people who live at the bottom. On weekdays, they either do small business or eat wine and chat with their neighbors. Who doesn't talk about the wonders and anecdotes in the capital.
I don't know how many times they have talked about Princess gran.
Yesterday, there was another big news that her servant girl poisoned the little childe of the Chu family with a strange poison that even the doctor didn't understand. Finally, she was diagnosed by chance. But to convict people, it was two chicken vendors and sheep vendors who provided true confessions. Finally, they found poison from the servant girl's house and disguised it as makeup powder.
At that time, many vendors were called into the house. When they returned, they publicized it everywhere as a special experience.
But when they heard about it, their faces changed.
Because they remembered that before that, there was such a beautiful servant girl running to look for chicken gold or black sheep armour.
Before they could react, Mrs. Wu went to make trouble early this morning.
On weekdays, they didn't say less. I didn't expect that today these legendary anecdotes were actually involved in them.
The fat man frowned and said, "needless to say, the princess must have murdered her husband. Hey..."
"Shh, shh." The thin man quickly put his middle finger on his lips. The old man was frightened and changed his face: "stop talking."
That's the princess! Moreover, they have been brought here. It must be
At this time, there was a sound of footsteps outside, and the three people in the room were surprised. Then, with a "squeak", the door was opened, and a dignified old man in his 60s came in.
The old man is holding a dust brush. His face is white without need. He is quite feminine. Seeing his clothes and bearing, he knows that he is not an ordinary person.
He followed a small eunuch behind him and looked at them and shouted, "I'm not happy to kowtow and salute when I see Grandpa CAI."
The three words "Duke Cai" sounded in their ears. Living in the capital, these three words were like thunder. Father Cai is a first-class celebrity around the emperor!
"Ah..." the three shook their bodies, softened with fear, and knelt down with a plop. The old man was the oldest and had more courage: "see... See father-in-law... Father-in-law is a thousand years old."
The remaining two were so frightened that they couldn't even make a sound.
CAI Jie was very satisfied with their frightened response. He gently shook the dust and stepped forward: "can you guess what happened when the miscellaneous family came today?"
They are all trembling. They are people who appear in public and do business. They are smart. They can know the reason at a guess, but they are too frightened to speak. If they are wrong, what should they do?
CAI Jie snorted softly, "did you hear about the little childe of the Chu family yesterday? Have you heard of Mrs. Wu's trouble with the Chu family today? "
The three men's faces were iron and white. They only nodded tremblingly. The old man in Gray said, "yes."
"Very good." CAI Jie raised her eyelids slightly and looked down at them, "but the emperor believes in the princess and feels that the princess can't teach such a vicious servant girl, don't you think?"
The word "emperor" frightened the three people. They didn't dare to deny it. They trembled in a hurry: "yes..."
Cai nodal point nodded and sighed: "the princess grew up in a mixed family. She is so gentle and kind. This is something everyone knows. Among the grandchildren, the emperor also loves the princess most. If anyone dares to wrong the princess, the emperor will kill that person's head. "
The three people trembled and nodded like mashing garlic.
CAI Jie looked down at their reaction and was amused: "so, half a month ago, someone asked you to buy some messy things for a long time?"
"No! No! " The three shook their heads desperately. Speaking of this, even fools know the purpose of CAI Jie's trip - that is to let them make false testimony for Princess gran.
As the most crucial witnesses in this case, they will be summoned to court. As long as they deny that they have bought chicken inner gold and black sheep armor, they are innocent and Princess Gran can restore their reputation.
CAI Jie knew that the three did not dare to talk any more. He smiled: "sure enough, they are honest people. The emperor is very happy to have people like you. Let's stop here tonight. We'll go to court early tomorrow morning. Then the Yamen will pick you up. "
"Yes..." the three trembled.
CAI Jie turned and left. The three were paralyzed by fear.
After a long time, they came back to their senses. The thin man said with a pale face, "I knew it was so."
The old man in grey nodded: "let's be honest. Just don't talk nonsense." They are ordinary people. They dare not compete with the imperial power.
At this time, the door squeaked again and was pushed open. The three people got up with a grunt of fear and were about to kneel upright.
Don't want to, but come in is a young man in coarse cloth, holding several quilts in his hand and throwing them: "you'll make do here tonight."
Then he took out a food box and opened it. There was a box of exquisite flower shaped snacks, three chicken legs and a pot of wine. He put it on the table and said, "your father-in-law surprised you. Eat, drink and sleep well. Cheer up tomorrow."
Then he turned and went out, "bang", and the carved wooden door was thrown up.
The three people were frightened. They didn't have any appetite, but the snacks on the table were fragrant and made into a very exquisite rose shape. They were all rough people. They had never seen such exquisite snacks.
And there was wine on the table. The three were really scared. They all went over and ate and drank something to be surprised.
The thin man poured the wine, but the fat man took a piece of dessert and put it in his mouth: "delicious! Delicious! "
The old man in grey took the chicken leg, but stuffed the dessert into his pocket and prepared to save it for his grandson.
After eating and drinking, they spread their bedding on the ground and slept next to each other.
The three slept in a daze. I don't know what time it was. Suddenly, a spirit aroused and the fat man woke up.
It's dark. Although there is no moonlight tonight, there are yard lights outside the yard, so I can see something vaguely.
The roaring wind outside changed the fat man's face, didn't he——
He didn't dare to think about it. He just closed his eyes tightly and hurriedly pulled up the quilt to cover himself, but the quilt was too short to cover his face and show his feet.
With a "pa", there was a sudden sound outside.
The fat man opened his eyes, but saw a white ghost with scattered hair standing at the outer door, clapping his hands on the carved pane, turning over the dead fish and looking at him.
"EH -" the fat man opened his eyes wide and finally couldn't hold it. He screamed, "here we go again! Again! There's a ghost! There's a ghost! My God -- "
When the fat man howled, the thin man and the old man couldn't hold their eyes. When they saw the ghost outside, they were so scared that they turned blue: "ah, ah --"
While roaring, they got up with one bone and one bone.
"I didi Mom -" the fat man sniveled and wept.
But the room was small, surrounded by walls, and there was nowhere to hide
"Don't come here -" the thin man and the old man were so frightened that they pushed the fat man out and shrank behind the fat man.
Fat man wants to die. This ghost, he didn't see him for the first time. He looked for him every night seven or eight days ago.
Hell, he was about to pee. These two were even more wicked than him. They pushed him in front, and they shrank behind him! Although he is fat enough to block them... He shouldn't bully fat people like this!
