Detective Di Renjie: The Mysterious Dynasty

Chapter 374 Where does the faith come from?

Jinniang hanged herself, and although she was rescued in time by Zhao Ji, she fell into a coma.

Ruyan's eyes were filled with tears as she anxiously called out to Di Renjie, "Uncle, please come and see Jinniang!"

"Help her sit up straight!" Li Yuanfang ordered decisively.

Ruyan quickly followed instructions and straightened Jinniang's body. Li Yuanfang quickly came behind her, put his palms together, and struck her hard.

"Ah!" Jinniang screamed and woke up from her coma.

Ruyan hugged her tightly in her arms and cried with joy: "She's awake, awake! Yuanfang, she's awake!"

Zhao Ji and Di Renjie both breathed a sigh of relief when they saw Jinniang wake up.

Li Yuanfang nodded with relief: "Hurry up and carry her to the couch to rest."

Ruyan hurriedly picked up Jinniang and gently placed her on the couch. Jinniang had her eyes closed and kept coughing, looking extremely weak.

"Silly girl, why are you doing this!" Ruyan sobbed, her eyes blurred with tears.

Jinniang slowly opened her eyes, her gaze was blank, pure as before, and her eyes were as clean as a child's.

Ruyan was about to talk to Jinniang, but Jinniang turned her head and suddenly screamed in fear: "Ah, you, you are a ghost, a ghost!"

She was so scared that she kept backing away, her eyes filled with fear.

Ruyan was suddenly at a loss and looked at Di Renjie pleadingly.

Di Renjie was also a little surprised. He walked over slowly and said with a soothing smile, "Jinniang, can you give me your wrist?"

Jinniang stared at him blankly, and after a long time, she slowly stretched out her hand.

Di Renjie placed his fingers lightly on Jinniang's wrist pulse and diagnosed her carefully.

After a long while, he sighed: "The three meridians are scattered, this is a symptom of insanity."

Ruyan heard this and her eyes widened in shock: "What, she, she's crazy?"

Di Renjie nodded silently, feeling heavy in his heart.

Ruyan grabbed Di Renjie's hand and burst into tears again: "Uncle, you must think of a way! She, she is only nineteen years old!"

Di Renjie felt sad and nodded reluctantly: "Okay, I'll think of a way!"

With Zhao Ji and Li Yuanfang by his side, he also felt very heavy in his heart. Even Wen Kai no longer mentioned the secret letter and frowned.

How can we not feel sad and regretful when a woman in her prime chose to commit suicide in despair. Although she was rescued, she fell into madness again?
Soon, Di Renjie prescribed a calming prescription for Jinniang. Jinniang was really exhausted, and she fell asleep peacefully after taking the medicine.

Ruyan's eyes were swollen from crying. She looked at the sleeping Jinniang and blamed herself, "It's all my fault. Jinniang's mental state has been wrong for a long time. I didn't take good care of her..."

Li Yuanfang could only step forward to comfort her: "Don't say that, you have tried your best, sir, you have a magic hand, there will be a way."

Wen Kai frowned, and asked in confusion: "Xue Qinglin is obviously dead, and this girl's revenge has been avenged. Why is she so upset now?"

Ruyan raised her head with tears in her eyes, thinking of Jinniang's experience. In the end, she decided not to tell everyone about Jinniang's unfortunate experience. She kept shaking her head and cried even harder.

Now that Zhao knew the whole story, he sighed silently and felt full of sympathy for Jinniang's experience.

Di Renjie had seen a lot of things in the world, so he could roughly guess what Jinniang had gone through in the Marquis' Mansion. He understood her thoughts better and felt equally sad.

"Let's go." Zhao Ji said softly.

So, Di Renjie, Zhao Ji and Wen Kai left the room, leaving Jinniang with a quiet space.

Ruyan had already decided not to leave Jinniang, so she stayed. Li Yuanfang was worried about Ruyan, so he also stayed.

On the winding path in the back garden, Di Renjie, Zhao Ji and Wen Kai paced slowly, each with a heavy heart. For a moment, no one spoke.

Finally, Di Renjie broke the silence: "Xue Qinglin, Feng Wanchun and six others all died. Wu Si died tragically, the servants of the Marquis' Mansion suffered, and now Jinniang has become a madman."

"And there is that crucial secret letter. If this case is not solved, how many people will not have peace? For Jinniang and the victims of this case, we must find out the real culprit!" His tone was filled with unquestionable determination and courage.

Wen Kai nodded heavily upon hearing this, and suddenly looked at Zhao Ji: "Hey, didn't His Highness just say that there was a clue about the culprit?"

Zhao Ji sighed. After this incident, he no longer wanted to show off. He said bluntly, "The culprit is related to Jinniang and Zhang Yi. Zhang Yi's background is still unclear, but Jinniang is from Xiaopu Village. This may be a breakthrough for our investigation!"

When Wen Kai heard this, a gleam flashed in his eyes, and he clapped his hands excitedly: “Yes, why didn’t I think of it!”

Di Renjie shook his head slightly: "Jinniang's biological father Wu Si is nearly sixty years old, and Jinniang is only nineteen years old. Judging from their ages, they are not really suitable as father and daughter. I suspect they are not biological father and daughter."

"Besides, Ruyan once told me that when she and Jinniang were arranging the funeral for Wu Si, they discovered that Wu Si had no relatives in Xiaopu Village. In this case, how easy is it to track him down?"

Zhao Ji smiled and retorted: "In the words of adults, this is also unusual! Whether it works or not, why not give it a try? Maybe we will make some discoveries, Wen Kai!"

Wen Kai immediately understood what he meant and immediately bowed and said, "I will go there myself!"

Speed ​​is of the essence in war, so he didn't want to waste a moment and went there directly.

Zhao Ji looked at Di Renjie and continued, "Besides, the secret letter was so secret that even the emperor was very secretive about it. He specifically asked the inner guards to act cautiously and take it out secretly. Apart from Xue Qinglin himself, who else could know its existence?"

Di Renjie pondered for a moment and then spoke slowly: "Zhang Yi is a legal advisor, hiding in the Marquis's mansion. He must have heard about the secret letter."

Zhao Ji shook his head slightly and retorted: "Otherwise, do you still remember Zhang Yi's confession when he was interrogated earlier? He inadvertently mentioned that he would send a letter to the capital, saying that if the emperor saw this letter, he would confiscate Xue Qinglin's family and exterminate his entire family!"

"This proves that Zhang Yi not only knows the existence of this letter, but he is also very familiar with the contents of this letter and knows that this letter can put Xue Qinglin to death!"

Di Renjie was finally surprised. He frowned and said, "Yes, yes! That's right! But who are Zhang Yi and his gang? How can they know the contents of this letter?"

Zhao Ji took a deep breath and continued to analyze in depth: "The secrets of this letter involve the emperor. Ordinary people have no chance to see its true appearance."

"I'm afraid there are only two people who have read this letter! There are only two people who wrote it and one who received it!"

When Di Renjie heard this, he couldn't help but feel his scalp tingling.

His heart seemed to be touched, and some vague ideas were circling in his mind, but they were like a flash in the pan, difficult to capture.

"Letter, letter... What kind of letter is this?" Di Renjie looked up at the moon and couldn't help muttering to himself.
