At least Zhao Yuannan came from the palace. He had seen a lot of things, so he was not that surprised. Therefore, when he saw Wen Yufeng who looked like a sausage hanging under the beams of the room, Zhao Yuannan stood dumbly on the spot with his hands shaking uncontrollably inside his sleeves, not showing much emotion.
The waiter was accompanying Zhao Yuannan. He was about to shout, but Zhao Yuannan quickly covered his nose and mouth with his hands. Zhao Yuannan yelled with a cold expression, "Don't scream!" The waiter stared at him in confusion.
Zhao Yuannan's face was pale and his breathing quickened, but he still held onto the nose of the waiter. His voice finally started to quiver, "Listen, everyone in the lobby is a scientist today, and there are also some promising people in the capital. When you shouted, Full Moon Guild was destroyed, do you understand? "
As long as the waiter called out, the news of Full Moon Residence's death would spread out with all sorts of rumors. At that time, it would spread out and become unbearable to the ears. The Full Moon Residence could also be considered to have a small reputation in the capital. If its reputation was tarnished because of this, then the Full Moon Residence would no longer be able to do business in the future. Thinking of this, the waiter nodded his head like a chick pecking rice.
"Are you sure?" Zhao Yuannan asked.
The waiter nodded again. Zhao Yuannan then removed his hand, his face was pale, but his mind was a lot more relaxed, "Now go find someone to keep watch here and don't let anyone near. He put Prince Wen's body down and protected everything here. He was not allowed to move a table or a chair. I will have the following matters dealt with by someone else. If this is not the case, then you Full Moon Guild will have no future. Do you understand? "
"Yes, yes, yes!" The waiter immediately wiped the cold sweat from his forehead.
Zhao Yuannan glanced at the stool Wen Yufeng kicked down, and carefully helped it up. He was aware of this, but … The stool and foot were in the right position, and there was a pair of footprints on the stool. Zhao Yuannan measured it with his finger and was shocked. Wen Yufeng's shoes were exactly the same size as this footprint, so … Zhao Yuannan straightened his body, "I'm afraid Young Master has a headache!"
The waiter carefully removed Wen Yufeng's corpse from the rope and, according to Zhao Yuannan's instructions, sent people to guard this place from inside and outside, not allowing anyone to come close and not daring to divulge even the slightest bit of information.
Zhao Yuannan quickly left and immediately went to find Zhao Jing. After such a big incident had occurred, Zhao Yuannan didn't dare to be alone.
Zhao Jing had long been bored sitting on the main platform. Although these students looked like they were full of poems and books, there were even some who were stubborn like a donkey. This so-called scholar's arrogance was actually similar to a rock in a latrine, smelly and hard! If the imperial court were officials who were muttering to themselves, then what was the difference between them and the current group of stubborn old men?
Wei Shuge had been waiting for Zhao Yuannan's news the whole time. She looked around. When she saw the peculiar expression on Zhao Yuannan's face, Wei Shuge started to panic a little. Zhao Yuannan left in a hurry. Wei Shuge could tell from his footsteps that something must have happened! After some thought, Wei Shuge whispered into Zhao Jing's ear, "Young master, there's something wrong with his expression."
As he spoke, Zhao Yuannan had already approached Zhao Jing. He bowed and called out, "Young Noble!" He then moved closer to Zhao Jing's ear. "When this servant arrived, Wen Yufeng died. His corpse was in the basement room." "This servant has already ordered people to keep an eye out. Young master, look at this …"
Zhao Jing's expression darkened. Fortunately, she was wearing a mask, so no one could see the emotions on her face. She slowly stood up and leaned forward slightly. Her hands pressed on the table, while her fair fingertips lightly knocked on the table as if she was thinking about something. She walked over to Wang Si's side and said a few words to him. Wang Si nodded repeatedly, respectfully sending Zhao Jing off.
It was a good thing that everyone's eyes were focused on the debate at the poetry meet. Zhao Jing didn't reveal his identity, so no one paid too much attention to her departure. If there really was one, it would be as gentle as a blade.
"Young Master?" The scenery bowed, "Do you want me to …"
Wen Rusheng cast a meaningful glance at him and the scenery immediately nodded before quietly following Zhao Jing.
Dongfang Wenming slightly narrowed his eyes. "Why did this girl suddenly leave?" It looked like something had happened in such a hurry! After thinking for a while, Dongfang Wenming got up and walked out. Zhou Zhizhong followed him immediately. When the two of them were halfway through, they happened to see the scenery behind Zhao Jing and the rest. Without saying a word, Zhou Zhisuo immediately knocked the scenery over, then quickly dragged it to the side and tossed it aside.
"Master?" Zhou Zhiqian put down the scenery, and a dark guard immediately appeared.
"Just watch him carefully, there's no need to see blood." Dongfang Wenming continued to walk forward. After all, this person didn't see anything. If he just killed him like this, it would bring about some unnecessary trouble, so it was better to keep him alive.
"Yes sir!" The dark guard nodded and dragged the scenery to the backyard and threw it away.
Dongfang Wenming felt a bit uneasy. Even though he was wearing the mask, he could feel the panic coming from Zhao Jing. His footsteps were hurried, not because something big had happened. After all … That person was currently staying in a remote corner of the capital. It was unknown when he would come out! Dongfang Wenming was standing at the end of the corridor. He watched as Zhao Jing made a turn and entered the room. Outside of the 'Earth Room', there were quite a few guards of the Full Moon Restaurant. It seemed that something had indeed happened.
The moment Zhao Jing stepped into the room, his gaze fell upon Wen Yufeng's corpse on the bed. Her body trembled slightly as she slowly took off the silver mask on her face. Her eyes were ice-cold. He vaguely remembered the first time he'd met her in that run-down temple. Even though his clothes were tattered, his appearance was refined and refined. Before he left, he even gave his rations to Zhao Jing … Now, only a corpse remained.
"When this servant came, I was hanging on the beam." Zhao Yuannan pointed at the white cloth on the beam. "I helped myself to the stool and …" This servant compared the distance between them and found that it was rather fitting. Moreover, this servant has also measured the size of the footprints on the stool, and they are exactly the same size as Prince Wen's shoes. " The meaning behind his words was that Wen Yufeng had climbed onto the stool and hanged himself.
However, Zhao Jing refused to believe him. "A drought in the North and a harsh environment like this are keeping him alive. Now that the Autumn Festival is about to begin, how could he possibly hang his neck at the feet of the Son of Heaven?" If it was you guys, would you guys die? You failed to realize your ambition and your ambition has not been fulfilled, so you are now looking for Yama Minamiya? "
"This servant doesn't believe it either!" Wei Shuge slowly stepped forward and carefully examined Wen Yufeng's neck. "However, this corpse doesn't seem to have any abnormalities. There's only one strangling mark on the neck. It doesn't look like it was hung up after death."
If he didn't hang himself after death, would he have really climbed up the stool and killed himself?
Zhao Jing snorted and looked at the white cloth on the beam before staring at Wen Yufeng's corpse, "Have Commander Li secretly make a trip to the Jing Zhao Estate. No one is allowed to talk about this matter, no one is allowed to talk about it. Tomorrow is the Autumn Festival, I don't want to make all these teachers nervous, do you understand? "
"Yes sir!" Zhao Yuannan turned around and walked out the door.
When a case of human life occurred, they naturally had to go to the yamen. Although Zhao Jing was the emperor, the emperor could not interfere in the execution of the case. Unless the case was extremely serious, it was impossible for it to land in Zhao Jing's hands. With so many people dying in this world, the Emperor could not possibly be bowing to everyone. Besides, she had a Kobold, Prime Minister Ko!
A sound came from outside. When Zhao Jing came back to his senses, he saw that the east side of the door was not clear. When he thought back to what had happened last night, Zhao Jing became somewhat agitated. Fortunately, she quickly suppressed his emotions.
Zhao Jing coughed lightly. "Why is Father Zhong here?"
"If I hadn't come, how would I have been able to see your depressed expression? "Normally, you would be too proud, but it's rare for me to make a fool of myself by meeting you." Dongfang Wenming walked into the room and directly walked in front of the bed. He glanced at Wen Yufeng on the bed and gave him a meaningful glance.
Zhou Zhizi understood, and immediately put down the sword in his hand, extending his hand to lightly press down on Wen Yufeng's corpse, "The bones in my body are still intact, there are no signs of broken bones." He reached his hand out and touched Wen Yu Feng's throat, "But the hyoid bone is abnormal..." Was this hanging? "
"Do you even know how to perform an autopsy?" Zhao Jing teased.
Dongfang Wenming waved his sleeve and smiled meaningfully, "The more I kill, the more I see, the more deaths there are. Naturally, I know a little too." You'll understand these tricks in the future as well! "
Zhou Zhizhi lifted Wen Yufeng's arm and discovered that the corpse was extremely stiff, "The corpse has already been stiff for a long time, so you can see that it has been dead for at least six to six hours. In other words, the person might have died last night! "
Then, Dongfang Wenming looked at the candle flame on the table, "Full Moon Restaurant has a rule: every morning when you clean the room for the guests, you will take away the burned candle and put in a new candle. Therefore, the candles in the Full Moon Restaurant were custom-made so that they could burn for an entire night. However, the candle in front of him had only burned a little bit. It was obvious that this person had already encountered trouble the moment he had lit the candle. If there was any light in the room, the shadow would betray everything, so in order to kill someone, one had to put out the candle. Find out when this person came back and roughly when he died. "
Zhao Jing agreed. He then continued, "The marks on the neck of the corpse have some wrinkles. They should be caused by this cloth belt." His five fingers are curled and struggling, and there are some scratches on the legs of the corpse, which fits all the features of a person who hanged himself. "
Wei Shuge focused on Wen Yufeng's pants. There were some long streaks of blood on his pants, as well as some blood on the broken nails. It was caused by him scratching his thigh, and the marks were very consistent with his injuries. There was only a single scar on his neck, and there was no sign of a struggle in the room. This series of traces indicated that Wen Yufeng had indeed committed suicide!
The situation had suddenly become somewhat strange. No one knew what had happened before Wen Yufeng died. How could a person who had endured the hardships of Jiangbei suddenly kill himself before becoming famous?
"Young master!" Wei Shuge suddenly shouted.
Zhao Jing suddenly turned his head and saw something in the voice of Wei Shu.
It was a small cluster of colorful feathers, and there were even some extremely gorgeous colours in the dim light. Zhao Yuannan was a bit anxious when he pushed the door open, so he blew the item under the table and attached it to the cloth, making it hard to detect. It was fortunate that Wei Shuge was sharp enough to find such a small item.
When he first looked at this tiny strand of fur, Zhao Jing felt a sense of familiarity. He felt as if he had seen it somewhere before, but no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't remember where. When she saw the stunned expression on Zhou Zhizhong's face, Zhao Jing suddenly came to a realization.
That's right, she had seen this before. This was …
