Forensic drug concubine

Chapter 278

The subordinate's body couldn't help shaking, and he responded with a feeling and walked outside. As soon as he went out, Yu Kun hurried in from the outside, holding a handkerchief, and said anxiously: "My lord, this is the subordinate who is here. Found near a flowerbed outside the city."

Chu Zhiyan took it over, saw the lines on it clearly, frowned even more, Zhao Zhong beside him also looked a little dark, this case became more and more weird, they couldn't find any clues at all, but people kept having accidents, Just this morning, two servants in the government office were poisoned again. They were in exactly the same state as the poisoned servant yesterday. They all had black faces and bleeding from their noses. Zhao Zhong asked someone to investigate the entire government office, but But no trace of the murderer's poisoning was found.

This is strange.

"My son, Miss Mu San once said that these cases seem to have some connection with the flower garden outside the city, why don't we go and investigate." Zhao Zhong said.

Chu Zhiyan's eyes were filled with cold air, he clenched the handkerchief in his hand, and said the word 'go' coldly, and he had already strode out.

He hurried to the flower garden outside the city. There were two carriages parked outside the flower garden. The carriages looked very delicately decorated. They should be the wife and young lady of that rich family.

Chu Zhiyan and Zhao Zhong got off their horses and walked to the door. Before they could go in, they heard the sound of hoofbeats from behind. They turned their heads and saw Gong Yichen coming on horseback. His expression seemed a little anxious.

"Your Majesty." Gong Yichen got off his horse, and cupped his hands at Chu Zhiyan as a greeting.

Chu Zhiyan hummed, not intending to greet him, and quickly walked into the courtyard gate.

The sound of conversation came from the yard, and when they walked inside, Chu Zhiyan and Zhao Zhong realized that it was Mrs. Gong who was inside, and the owner of the flower garden was introducing the incomparably brilliant flowers blooming in the flower garden.

"The flowers here grow so beautifully that people feel so much love when they see them." Mrs. Gong said with a smile, looking at the flowers in the flower garden, her face was full of satisfaction.

In fact, there are many well-cultivated flower gardens in the capital, but there are really few that bloom so brightly like this.

The flower servant who led the old lady Gong to look at the flowers said with a smile: "The old lady likes it, that is the blessing of these flowers, but there are no peonies in the near future, the old lady might as well choose some other ones."

Mrs. Gong nodded, very satisfied. She carefully looked at the flowers in the flower garden and couldn't help admiring. The flower servant followed behind and introduced the same thing. The flower servant said to the old lady Gong: "If the old lady likes it, I will send some plum blossoms to you recently. At that time, I will send someone to the house for the old lady to appreciate."

Mrs. Gong's face was a bit surprised after hearing this, and said: "Aren't plum blossoms winter flowers? How can you cultivate them in this season?"

The flower servant nodded with a smile, and said, "Don't worry, old lady, there are many types of plum blossoms, and those that are easy to bloom are easy to cultivate."

"Then I have to open my eyes and see." Mrs. Gong said with a smile.

Surprise flashed across the faces of Zhao Zhong and Gong Yichen. They had never heard of plum blossoms that bloomed in winter in summer.

Ziyun found Gong Yichen and Chu Zhiyan over there, and whispered something in the old lady Gong's ear. Looking at them, he said, "Yichen and Zhiyan are here to see flowers?"

"Old lady, you are well." Chu Zhiyan spit out a few words, glanced at the flower servant, and then at the garden full of flowers, always feeling that something was wrong.

"Taijun." Gong Yichen stepped forward, intending to ask about Pazi, but now was not a good time, so he kept the words in his heart, thinking that he would wait until Chu Zhiyan and the others left.

However, he did not expect that Chu Zhiyan would take out a handkerchief, hand it to the old matriarch Gong, and said, "Madam, this is a gift from the old matriarch to Mu San when Miss Mu San was invited to appreciate flowers in Gong's mansion. Miss's handkerchief?"

Mrs. Gong frowned, and Ziyun took it from the side, and said, "This handkerchief was indeed given to Ms. Mu during the flower viewing last time, but Ms. Mu was not the only one who came to Gong's mansion that day. Every young lady has this veil."

Chu Zhiyan closed his dark eyes, and continued: "Miss Mu San disappeared last night, our people found this veil not far from this flower garden, old lady, I don't know if this veil is How did it come about, and who mentioned the above poems?"

Mrs. Gong's face showed a bit of displeasure. After all, she is not very happy to be interrogated as a suspect like this!

"Hmph, why, does the prince think my old lady is a murderer?" Old Madam Gong said displeased.

Seeing this, Zhao Zhong smoothed things over and said: "The old lady misunderstood, but this case involved several lives, and the emperor urged us to solve the case as soon as possible, so I was a little anxious and looked around for clues."

The old lady Gong didn't appreciate it, she still had that dissatisfied expression on her face, and said in a cool tone: "Just relying on a handkerchief to lock your eyes on me, an old lady, your ability to solve cases may not be too good. It's ridiculous."

Chu Zhiyan's eyes were slightly cold, and his tone was sharp, he said, "Every deceased person wore a handkerchief from the Gong family. Isn't this enough to be regarded as strange?"

Mrs. Gong's complexion changed, she looked at Chu Zhiyan coldly, and said, "Chu Zhiyan, you are too presumptuous, even if your father, King Jin, sees me, he has to respectfully call aunt, you Is this how this junior talks to elders?"

The expression on Chu Zhiyan's face remained unchanged: "The prince violated the law and the common people are equally guilty, and Princess Duanrui is no exception. The old lady, this matter is of great importance. In order to avoid being difficult to explain on the other side, the old lady should cooperate to avoid This matter is brought up in front of the emperor, and everyone will not look good." Chu Zhiyan is really about to run out of patience at this moment.

Mrs. Gong's face was even colder, and her eyes were filled with anger. Just as she was about to speak, Gong Yichen said hurriedly: "Grandmother, there have been three or four murder cases in the capital. If the cases are not solved, people will be panicked. When the emperor blames it, no one can bear it. Besides, with so many innocent lives, the murderer can't let the murderer do it behind his back. Grandma eats vegetarian food, recites Buddha and Bodhisattva on weekdays, and certainly doesn't want so many innocent women to continue. were murdered."

Gong Yichen's words were half compliments and half comforting, which made the old lady Gong calm down a bit, snorted, and said: "To say that the Gong family is a murderer is also a big joke in the world, these veils are indeed The Gong family gave away a lot, but it has something to do with human life, it’s just a few handkerchiefs, my wife, I gave away quite a few, can every one of them cause death?”
