I have an altar of luck

Page 459

Then I looked at the dossier first.

At this point, Chen Yuan understood some ins and outs.

This concubine Shu is twenty-six this year, and she was brought into the harem by Jingtai a few years ago, but because Jingtai was busy practicing, she was rarely favored.

Later, Concubine Shu often admired the moon in the attic due to her longing, but this time she accidentally fell from a high place and drowned on the spot...

This is the general situation given in the dossier.

Even if it is just a simple scan, as long as you are not stupid, you will be able to see something strange, for example... Does this Concubine Shu go to the attic to enjoy the moon once in a while, or every once in a while?

For example, why didn't the concubine Shu concubine accompany her in the palace when she was admiring the moon?

For example, when this concubine Shu fell into the water, why didn't she call out for help? Are the people around her deaf?

To be honest, just by looking at it for the first time, he can be very sure that [-]% of the death of Concubine Shu is the result of an assassin, and the people from the Criminal Department should come.

This Jingtai... what kind of attention is he hitting?

"Eunuch Zhao, is there anyone you suspect?" Chen Yuan put down the file in his hand and asked in a deep voice.

"The two maids serving by the concubine Shu's side."

"What about motivation?"

"What motive?"

Chen Yuan paused, and then said: "Why do they want to kill Concubine Shu?"

"It hasn't been judged yet..."

Chen Yuan narrowed his eyes and glanced at him.

Is this treating people as fools?

Even if it is interrogated, isn't it a torture?

"Take me to the attic where Concubine Shu fell into the water." After pondering for a moment, Chen Yuan whispered.

"Commander Chen, come with me."

The old eunuch nodded, and led Chen Yuan all the way through the harem, passing through a large area of ​​palace buildings, before finally arriving at the destination.

"Concubine Shu accidentally fell into the water in the attic here." The old eunuch pointed to an attic directly in front of him and said.

Chen Yuan nodded, then stepped out, and climbed into the attic in an instant. The attic here is actually not high, and it is not very eye-catching. It is not a good place to enjoy the moon.

Squinting his eyes, Chen Yuan looked around, and finally fixed on a somewhat broken fence. There was a hole in it, and it seemed that someone subconsciously grabbed it when he fell down in a hurry.

And below, there is a quiet deep pool...

Staring at the deep pool, Chen Yuan seemed to see a pair of eyes staring at him inside, and then looked carefully, it was Chen Yuan's reflection, his fingers slowly slid across the nearby pillars, and raised his head to wait and see nearby scenes.

It was not far from the Chunhua Palace that he had been to before, other than that, there was nothing unusual to be found.

Without taking the stairs, Chen Yuan came down the same way he went up, looked at the old eunuch in front of him and said:

"Three things. First, I want to interrogate the two court ladies who were arrested by you next to Concubine Shu. Second, let these people under Mr. Chen go to search Concubine Shu's bedroom. The third thing... I I want to see Concubine Shu's body."

"This..." The old eunuch had some reasons:

"Concubine Shu's bedroom and body can't be seen casually, it's against..."

Before he finished speaking, Chen Yuan directly raised his hand to stop him from continuing:

"I don't care about this. Your majesty's royal badge is here. If the father-in-law has any questions, you can just ask your majesty. But the request must be satisfied now.

Otherwise, I can't find the trace and can't solve the case. This crime... the father-in-law will bear it? "

Eunuch Zhao's tone froze for a moment, then took a deep breath, stared at Chen Yuan and said:

"Okay, this old servant will definitely satisfy Lord Chen's request, as long as he doesn't desecrate Concubine Shu's body."

After finishing speaking, he ordered two eunuchs to pick up the two personal maids who were imprisoned, and ordered two more eunuchs to follow Wang Teng and the two brought by Chen Yuan to check Concubine Shu's bedroom.

But they are not good at this kind of thing. Fortunately, Chen Yuan didn't demand too much, but just let them check to see if there is anything suspicious.

The real clue is probably still on the corpses of the two maids and concubine Shu.

After finishing the order, Chen Yuan didn't stay idle, and was ready to really start to implement his purpose, and check the harem well.

The purpose of his trip was not just to find out the cause of Concubine Shu's death, he always felt that Jingtai just threw this matter to him casually, and didn't have much meaning to delve into it.

Otherwise, you should find a professional criminal department expert to check this thing.

He is a member of the Sky Survey Division, and the Sky Survey Division specializes in killing people...

He is also not good at solving cases, he just reasoned from some small details, and his own ability in this area is actually not great.

So instinctively doubted Jingtai's purpose, but he still complied.

As for the purpose, it is also very simple. It is to take this opportunity to search the harem and find the place where the dragon veins suppressed Senior Mo Luo. Among the several places given by Jiang He, only this place has not been explored.

Chen Yuan walked aimlessly in the harem, which made the old eunuch who followed him a little puzzled, isn't he investigating the case?What does it mean to hang out in the harem all the time?

This place is far away from the place where Concubine Shu died.

But Chen Yuan's answer was...need time to think about it.

While observing the harem, Chen Yuan also found that today's harem is indeed not as lively as it was the last time he came here. After asking the old eunuch, he found out that before Chen Yuan came, the empress and the imperial concubine had issued a verbal order, and nothing happened in the past two days Avoid walking around in the harem, especially away from Concubine Shu's Hall.

It seems that they don't want to get involved in the case.

This time, with the convenience of his status, Chen Yuan can move around the harem unscrupulously, and the speed is also very fast. It doesn't seem like he is thinking about something at all, but there is no way to do it.

The harem is too big, if the speed is too slow, it will not be able to finish in a day.

He passed by the empress' bedroom, the imperial concubine's bedroom of the eldest prince's birth mother, and the palaces of some princesses who still lived in the palace without leaving the court.

There was something wrong with the old eunuch looking at him.

I feel that Chen Yuan's purpose is not so simple.

"What is this place?"

Suddenly, Chen Yuan paused, stopped in place, pointed to the front and asked.

The old eunuch thought for a while and said:

"This is the cold palace."

"Lenggong?"

Chen Yuan raised his brows. He never thought that the place where Senior Mo Luo was suppressed was in this cold palace. It was really...unexpected!

Yes, Chen Yuan has found the place of suppression of that senior Mo Luo.

Just now, the heavenly book and strange treasure in his sleeve finally reacted.

This is the method given to him by several Taoist masters before. As long as he keeps opening the heavenly book, he can perceive the changes of another piece of heavenly book fragments within a certain range.

Naturally, it can also be used to judge whether another Taoist master is nearby...

Before Chen Yuan walked through the places that Jiang He had deduced, but there was no movement in Tianshu once, this time... finally.

It's not easy...

The name Lenggong is very cold, and this place is also the place where some concubines who made mistakes were put under house arrest. Chen Yuan's eyes flickered for a moment, hesitating whether to go in and have a look.

The old eunuch on the side said casually:

"Why, Commander Chen doesn't know about Leng Gong?"

"I know, I've heard of it."

"Here...is..."

"Okay, let's go and see the body of Concubine Shu."

After thinking about it, Chen Yuan still didn't enter the Leng Palace in the end. Entering the Leng Palace with his identity is really a bit of a violation, and it has nothing to do with the case of Concubine Shu. If someone stabbed him in front of Jingtai.

I'm afraid it might be easy to guess some of Chen Yuan's goals.

Anyway, the place has been found, and there is no rush, and now is not the best time to meet that senior Mo Luo, Chen Yuan can infer some information from the mouths of several other Taoist masters.

That senior Mo Luo might have an enmity with the Dajin royal family, otherwise he wouldn't be suppressed in the dragon's veins, and as the emperor, how could he not know the existence of this senior Mo Luo?

Again, be careful in everything.

When Chen Yuan came to Concubine Shu's Hall, Wang Teng and others had already searched. Chen Yuan glanced around at the two of them, and asked casually, "Did you find anything unusual?"

Wang Teng walked to Chen Yuan thoughtfully and said in a low voice:

"I only found a white jade lotus root, which is a bit unusual..."

4Chapter 17 Concubine, you don't want this either...

"White jade lotus root?"

Hearing Wang Teng talking about this thing, Chen Yuan suddenly frowned, as if he didn't quite understand it, what's so different about a mere white jade lotus root?

But after Wang Teng took it out, Chen Yuan understood.

I saw that the white jade lotus root was placed in a jade box, the whole body was white and flawless, with three sections, the baby's arms were thick, and there were some holes in it.

Obviously, this white jade lotus root is imitated, and even has the function of drainage.

Looking at the 'Mr. Lotus root' in the jade box, Chen Yuan squinted his eyes. Now, he understood, and at the same time, he was surprised by the power of Concubine Shu.

The means are indeed unfathomable...

But it's normal to think about it, Jingtai has not been close to women for several years, and these harem concubines naturally have to find ways to solve their problems.

"My lord... this thing..."

Wang Teng said hesitantly.

"Put it up first." Chen Yuan waved his hand.

To be honest, when he saw this Mr. Ou, he had already faintly thought of something in his heart, and the answer was ready to come out, but it is not yet conclusive.

Otherwise, it will inevitably be suspected of insulting Concubine Shu.

The old eunuch surnamed Zhao, squinting his eyes, walked forward slowly and said:

"Commander Chen, what did you find out?"

Chen Yuan glanced at him calmly:

"Why, I have to report everything to Eunuch Zhao in detail?"

Eunuch Zhao: "This old slave is just asking."

"Have you brought the two maids beside Concubine Shu?" Chen Yuan ignored him, but asked the two people outside the door.

"My lord, the prisoner has been brought."

A sky patrol guard bowed.

"Bring it in."

As soon as Chen Yuan gave an order, the two court ladies outside were immediately arrested and brought into Concubine Shu's Hall. It can be seen that they were tortured a bit miserably, with ragged clothes, loose long hair, and even dull pupils.

"Is this how you interrogate prisoners?"

Chen Yuan frowned and asked.

This is totally a trick of torture.

The policemen beside Eunuch Zhao smiled awkwardly, but they didn't dare to answer, and bowed and stood behind him.

Chen Yuan walked forward slowly, stared at the two court ladies, and said in a deep voice:

"I am ordered to investigate the cause of Concubine Shu's death. You two are the most suspect. If you want to survive, don't delay at all, otherwise... not only you will die, but your family members will also die."

Listening to the words in their ears, the two sluggish maids gradually came back to their senses, and one of them cried out quickly:

"My lord, please find out the truth. Sister Xiu'er and I were really wronged."

"Then don't hide it."

"Don't hide it, don't hide it, just ask, my lord."

The maid who spoke nodded repeatedly.

God knows what kind of torture they have suffered from last night to today. Now that they see a ray of hope, they naturally don't want to let it go, but the maid named Xiu'er is still a little dazed.
