Contract Prince

Chapter 104 Evidence

Xiao Muxue and Gu Yunjing have been lingering for many times, and Shou Gongsha is naturally gone.But the queen's question is really difficult for her to answer.If she said that Shou Gong Sha was still there, it meant that the son-in-law had no illness, which contradicted the previous reply.

If she lied and said that she was there, the empress would definitely ask Zhou Taiyi to heal the son-in-law. With this pulse, the identity of the son-in-law would definitely be exposed.Reminiscent of the nightmare she had that day, Xiao Muxue's palms felt a little cold, no matter what, she must not let others discover her consort's identity as a woman.

Compared with the latter answer, the former answer brings more benefits to the son-in-law.Xiao Muxue pursed her lips, and said slowly: "After returning to my mother, she is no longer here."

The queen was stunned for a moment, and then said pleasantly: "Since Shou Gongsha is not here, the son-in-law should have no hidden illnesses. From this point of view, you have already performed the ceremony of Duke Zhou."

Xiao Muxue blushed, and said: "Yes. It's not that the son-in-law is inhumane, but that she was too weak to have intercourse before. Under the care of senior Shangguanlan, her body has gradually recovered."

"Thank God, Bodhisattva bless you!" Empress Zhao took Xiao Muxue's hand and said with a smile, "In this way, my wish is finally fulfilled. Xue'er, you and your son-in-law must hurry up and create a villain."

Having a child is a wish that may never come true in a lifetime.Xiao Muxue sighed inwardly.Because she hadn't been with the queen for a long time, she was not in a hurry to go back to the Hou's mansion.Chatted with the queen in the palace, and didn't return to the mansion until after the banquet in the middle of the moon.

When Xiao Muxue returned to the Hou Mansion, she met a person who made her a little embarrassed, and this person was Han Jun.Han Jun followed Jiang Shitang to report the news to Gu Yunjing. Of course, he also had another purpose, which was to visit His Highness the Princess.

Han Jun was a little excited when he saw Xiao Muxue approaching slowly.But Xiao Muxue is married to a wife, so Han Jun can't be like before, he's just asking about his health when he comes up.He clenched his fist lightly, suppressing his excitement.

Like Jiang Shitang, he saluted Xiao Muxue.After the ceremony, he stood on one side with a heavy heart, and quietly cast his gaze on Xiao Muxue.

Jiang Shitang was working in the Habayashi Army, and he was the one who brought people back to capture the elope Han Jun and Her Royal Highness, so he also knew about the past between the two.Jiang Shitang didn't want to bring Han Jun to the Hou's mansion, but he couldn't resist his repeated pleading, and finally his heart softened.

Gu Yunjing broke the embarrassing atmosphere, she smiled and said, "Xue'er, Han Jun is concerned about your injury and has come to visit you specially."

Xiao Muxue smiled at Han Jun with a somewhat unnatural expression.Although she has nothing to do with Han Jun, the original owner of the body has a deep relationship with the scholar.

Gu Yunjing raised his hand and said gratefully to Han Jun: "When Xue'er and I were assassinated, thanks to your desperate rescue, I will always remember this kindness. Today you come to the house, take advantage of this opportunity, and I have to take advantage of it. Thank you very much."

Han Jun was flattered and said: "Don't dare to be, the son-in-law is too serious."

Gu Yunjing smiled, "Severe words? How can you be so serious? You are my life-saving grace."

Although Han Jun didn't directly block the sword for Gu Yunjing, he fought the killer desperately, buying time for the timely arrival of the Habayashi Army.

Gu Yunjing's laughter and words eased the awkward atmosphere.

Jiang Shitang said in a respectful voice: "My son-in-law, I came to the house to cause trouble this time. I have important clues to report to you and Her Royal Highness. It is very important to solve the assassin case."

Gu Yunjing's eyes brightened, and said: "Master Jiang, but what did you find out?"

"I didn't find out, it's mainly Han Jun's credit." Jiang Shitang glanced at Han Jun, and said in a tone of admiration, "Han Jun spared no effort to find clues. Those assassins who were poisoned were beyond recognition. The body is also rotten, and nothing can be found out. But the fact is unexpected, not only found things, but also surprised people."

Gu Yunjing said with great interest: "If there is anything surprising, you might as well tell it."

"Han Jun found out this clue," Jiang Shitang gave Han Jun a look, "You can tell the son-in-law."

Han Jun nodded, and said slowly: "I am afraid that the assassination case is closely related to Lu Zhong, the son of Ningguo."

The result of this investigation is indeed surprising, but the expression of the princess son-in-law is exceptionally calm, like a calm lake without any waves.The abnormal performance of the two made Jiang Shitang a little puzzled, he wondered and asked, "Aren't you surprised?"

Gu Yunjing smiled lightly: "Not surprised, it's expected."

This time it was Jiang Shitang's turn to be dumbfounded, the son-in-law had already expected the truth of the case.He knew that the son-in-law was resourceful, but this was too exaggerated.Jiang Shitang, a rough man, said that he really couldn't understand Gu Yunjing's IQ.

Looking at Jiang Shitang's overly surprised expression, which didn't take a long time to recover, Gu Yunjing said lightly: "Although I analyzed this way before, there was not enough evidence. You and Han Jun helped me a lot this time. Lu Zhong has a thousand mouths and can't speak clearly, and Lu Lin can't help Lu Zhong with all his strength."

Jiang Shitang snorted and said, "I never thought that Lu Zhong would be such a vicious villain, that he even dared to assassinate the princess consort. If His Majesty finds out, Long Yan will definitely be furious! Father and son of the Lu family cannot escape the blame!" "

It was true that the emperor was angry, and it was true that he would blame Lu Zhong, but he alone would not question Lu Lin.Gu Yunjing turned to look at Han Jun, and said, "Han Jun, I really want to hear, how did you find out? You continue to talk."

"Okay." Han Jun began to talk about his investigation process, "After the assassin committed suicide with poison, the Habayashi Army searched them all over the body, but they still couldn't find any clues. I was not reconciled, so I continued to investigate. The eyes are not only Put it on the murderer's body, but check it from the whole scene."

"Heaven has eyes," Han Jun suddenly felt happy and enmity, "I found an account book in a dark bush, and the account book recorded shocking transactions."

"It turns out that these people are all people from the Jianghu. They have been doing illegal activities. They help their employers kill people and get paid for it." Han Jun said while handing out a thick book, "Every business, Every date, and every employer, is clearly written on the project. In addition, there are signatures of those employers on the ledger."

"They know that murder is a dangerous thing, and they may not succeed every time. Why do they still carry the account books with them? Once such important evidence is taken away, wouldn't the bottom line be revealed?"

Han Jundao: "I have no way of knowing that."

Gu Yunjing took the account book from Han Jun with a serious expression. She flipped through it very carefully, her eyes fixed on every word on it, for fear of missing any clues.This account book looks very concise and clear, and each page records a business.

After a long time, she slowly closed the account book and said, "The page number of this account book is wrong, and page 35 is obviously missing. It seems that the missing page number should record the employer Lu Zhong."

Jiang Shitang admired the son-in-law once again.Gu Yunjing's ability to see the clues in the account book so easily is enough to show that her observation skills are terrifyingly meticulous.

Han Jun's heart was also filled with a lot of shock. He spent several days trying his best to check the account books.But the son-in-law came to an accurate conclusion so quickly. He secretly lamented that Her Royal Highness had a unique vision in choosing Gu Yunjing as her husband-in-law.He said: "The concubine's conjecture is very accurate. What is recorded on the missing page is the transaction between Lu Zhong and these killers."

Han Jundao: "I found it very strange when I saw the page number was missing. I analyzed it myself based on the scene at the time. When the assassin fled, the Habayashi Army was chasing after him. They probably knew that they could not escape, so they did it. Want to throw away the ledger."

"Assassination of the princess is a serious crime. The Habayashi Army will definitely conduct a carpet search to investigate the case. They are afraid that one of the most important guests on the account book will be discovered, so when they are about to be arrested, a person carrying the account book secretly puts 35 pages were torn out."

"I observed carefully, and there is no trace of scraps of paper for miles around. If so, the missing page number must still be on the assassin." Han Jun is also very smart, although compared to Gu Yunjing, he is still a bit inferior , but it is much better than ordinary people.

"The place where the note can be hidden, besides various parts of the body, there is another place that is most easily overlooked, and that is the mouth. The murderer's whole body is festered, and even the operatives kept their mouths closed and looked disgusted when they checked. .As a result, very few people would want to have their mouths checked."

"With the determination to give it a try, I finally touched the confetti in the mouth of an assassin. There was only a little bit left, and most of it was swallowed by the assassin." Recalling the time before and after the investigation, Han Jun gushed out A very exciting feeling, "I immediately swung the long sword, opened its belly, and finally found the wrinkled page number that had been swallowed."

When Han Jun said these words, Gu Yunjing admired the scholar from the bottom of his heart.Han Junwen's military strategy and broad-mindedness are far beyond what ordinary poor scholars who can only talk about things can compare with.Now it seems that apart from the above advantages, Han Jun also has a great talent, that is reasoning and analysis.

The derelict prince Xiao Zhan is now insignificant, the trees are down and the monkeys are scattered, the people who flattered him in the past saw him in a state of desperation, and all of them ran away without a trace. They were either busy flattering Xiao Cong, or they were busy flattering Xiao Yang.There are very few people who are really willing to help Xiao Zhan with their lives.

Gu Yunjing suddenly felt that pulling Han Jun into Xiao Zhan's team was a very good choice.Of course, this is something to say, the most important thing is this case.

"If you do many unrighteous deeds, you will die. Even the heavens will help us." Gu Yunjing narrowed his eyes and said, "There is Lu Zhong's signature on the page number, which is very favorable evidence. , has been pinched to death by us."

"Tomorrow is the day for Lu Zhong's trial. This evidence is really timely. Lu Zhong will be punished for several crimes, and he will definitely die!"
