Before reaching the south courtyard, the panicked shouts of the little eunuchs who got up to sweep in the morning filled the entire courtyard, louder than louder.
Chu Yunyao and Yun Jiu looked at each other in blank dismay, and the three of them quickened their pace together.
I saw that the entrances of the two rooms next to each other were full of people, when Feng Baizhe walked over, the crowd automatically separated to the two sides, leaving a path for Feng Baizhe and the three to pass through.
Standing at the door, Chu Yunyao felt a little uncomfortable smelling the strong smell of blood coming out of the guest room.
Whispering voices are endless:
"It's a terrible death, and the throat was sealed with a knife."
"It can't be a ghost again."
"Who knows, I haven't seen these things come out after living here for several years. When some people come, bad things come one after another."
…
As soon as the words fell, the eyes of those people were all glued to Chu Yunyao and Yun Jiu.
Yun Jiu said angrily: "What are you looking at, don't do anything wrong, and don't be afraid of ghosts knocking on the door in the middle of the night. Our young master discussed the peace talks with Master Feng all night, and we haven't had time to go back to the room to rest. As soon as we came back, we heard that dead.
Why push this on us? "
Someone said: "Because only you and the two of them have a festival, and we have no festival with them."
Yun Jiu: "What's the holiday?"
"Yesterday in the backyard, I clearly saw that you two seemed to be arguing."
Only then did Chu Yunyao become vigilant: "Who is the dead person?"
"Who else could it be? The second and fourth misses of the Chu family who quarreled with you yesterday..."
Hearing this, Chu Yunyao strode into the door of the guest room, walked to the edge of the bed, and saw Chu Yunyan lying quietly on the bed, with criss-crossing scars on her face, her face was as pale as snow, her lips were black and blue, and she was covered with blankets. Strictly, there is a wound on the neck that has been scratched by a sharp knife. The edge of the wound is black and has traces of corrosion.
The throat was sealed with a knife, and the death was exactly the same as those servants whose necks were wiped in front of the deserted courtyard the night before.
If she hadn't been mentally clear, Chu Yunyao would have suspected that those servants died at her own hands, and that the two sisters of the Chu family were really killed by herself.
Feng Baizhe was interrogating the little eunuch who first discovered the situation, and the little eunuch replied tremblingly: "Miss Chu and Second Miss Chu said that Miss Chu and Second Young Master Gong will come over today, so I asked the servant to wake them up according to the time. When we were sweeping, when we saw that it was time, we started knocking on the door.
I knocked on the door for a long time, but there was no movement inside, and I smelled blood, so I opened the door and found, found..."
Chu Yunyao took Yun Jiu to Chu Yunlan's guest room. Chu Yunlan's death was exactly the same as Chu Yunyan's. It was probably wiped on his neck in his sleep, and corrosive potion was sprinkled on the wound. The specific characteristics of the murder weapon.
If Feng Baizhe hadn't been forced to stay here to discuss the peace talks last night, I'm afraid she would be the biggest suspect.
Chu Yunyao frowned, and didn't bother to care about this nosy business, so she said goodbye to Feng Baizhe and went back to her guest room.
After closing the door, Yun Jiu couldn't hold back the doubts suppressed in his heart: "Master, could it be that Fangzhu secretly..."
Chu Yunyao shook her head: "Since he wasn't responsible for the people who died by the dry well last time, the deaths of these two people should have nothing to do with him."
Yun Jiu became more and more puzzled: "Then besides us, who else in this mansion has a grudge against the two of them? Could it be that the murderer intentionally killed the two of them, and then framed the killing on us to make the Feng family guard against us?" ?”
Chu Yunyao pondered for a moment, "The murderer didn't want to harm us, maybe he wanted to help us."
"Help us?"
