Tang Dynasty detective

Chapter 610

Li Yu hoped that what he had learned would be useful, but he did not encounter a murder case.

Whether it was the murder of the Dongying princess on Penglai Island or the serial murders of the Zhang family in Zailai Town, he was not personally involved.

This time he finally came across a weird murder case, so he wanted to try it himself.

Regarding the death of the King of Silla, he also conducted an investigation, but the conclusion he reached was to curse the murderer!
Now, when Li Canghai said that he had found a clue, his curiosity was aroused immediately, so he couldn't wait to know what Li Canghai had discovered.

When the third prince came with a pot of good tea, he happened to meet Li Canghai and the others who were about to leave.

He said in surprise: "Uncle Wang, I brewed Biluochun, the best of the Tang Dynasty that my father rewarded me, won't Uncle Wang taste it?"

Li Canghai waved his hand and said, "Xizhen, the lord and I already know your intentions. I suddenly thought of something related to your father's death. Now I'm going to the Buddhist hall to test my guess. This tea is still waiting for you to succeed to the throne." Let's drink again!"

"In that case, let my nephew keep it for Uncle Wang!" Xi Zhen handed the tray in her hand to the maid beside her, and then said, "Uncle Wang, it is related to the cause of my father's death. My nephew will also go with Uncle Wang."

Li Canghai nodded, and then led a few people to the Buddhist hall.

When they came to the Buddhist hall, Li Canghai asked Li Yu to push him, and the others stayed outside the Buddhist hall, and then walked into the Buddhist hall to observe.

"Sir, what did you find? Why didn't I find anything?" Li Yu looked around the Buddhist hall and asked inexplicably.

Li Canghai didn't answer him, but let him push himself to the altar, and then walked around the altar.

However, there is nothing out of place around the altar.

Li Canghai frowned, and asked Li Yu to push him around a few more times, but strangely, he still didn't find anything.

"Am I thinking wrong? The truth of the movement of the Buddha statue is the state of Xitai's madness last night? How is this possible? How can there be such things as cursing and killing people in the world?" Li Canghai's eyes rolled around, and new ideas flashed through his mind quickly. The picture of King Luo's death and the picture of the eldest prince going crazy.

The more he thought about it, the more confused his thoughts became, his whole head seemed to explode, which gave him a headache.

"What's going on? What's going on with all this?" Li Canghai suddenly held his head and yelled frantically.

Li Yu was taken aback by this, and he said in surprise, "Sir, what's wrong with you? Are you okay?"

However, Li Canghai did not hear Li Yu's question. Images of King Silla's death kept flashing before his eyes, but his head hurt more and more.

Beside him was Liang Zhu, with prayer flags wrapped around the beam, Li Canghai suddenly bumped his head against the beam.

With two muffled bangs, Li Canghai's head was smashed and his blood flowed, and Li Yu who was at the side was completely stunned.

It took him a while to realize, and he uttered a cry of surprise, telling the third prince to go find the doctor.

Seeing that Li Canghai's head was bleeding, the third prince immediately took a deep breath, turned around and left without saying a word, and went to find the imperial doctor.

And when Li Canghai hit his head against a pillar and committed self-mutilation, the dust floating down from the pillar caught Li Canghai's attention.

He didn't care about the injury on his forehead at all, he raised his head subconsciously and looked up.

Seeing this, he made a new discovery.

It turns out that there are pillars and beams on the left and right sides of the Buddhist hall, and between the two pillars and beams is the center of the house, that is, on the same central axis as the gate.

However, the pillars and beams on the left and right sides are supported by triangles. On the left and right sides of the altar, there is just a triangular pillar and beam bracket. What caught Li Canghai's attention was the one on the pillar that was horizontally placed in it. , connecting the left and right columns and beams, used to hang the beams of prayer flags.

Li Yu was busy wiping Li Canghai's blood, but Li Canghai suddenly whispered something in his ear.

Li Yu was slightly taken aback, and then let Qi Yunhe walk in.

"Yunhe, go up and see if the beam can move." Li Yu said.

Qi Yunhe nodded, and then jumped straight onto the beam of the house.

Li Canghai and Li Yu were below, watching Qi Yunhe shake the beam vigorously, but the beam did not move at all.

Qi Yunhe jumped down from the beam and said: "Go back to your lord, this beam is nailed to the beam and it is impossible to move."

"Sir, this beam is used to hang the prayer flags, shouldn't it be difficult to move?" Li Yu touched his nose and said.

Li Canghai wiped the blood from his forehead casually, and said in a deep voice, "Tear off the prayer flags."

Qi Yunhe nodded slightly, and then tore off all the prayer flags hanging from the beam.

Li Canghai looked up at the beam, not letting go of the beam, when his eyes moved to the middle of the beam, the circle of marks in the middle of the beam immediately caught Li Canghai's attention.

His eyeballs rolled a few times, as if he understood something, but also as if he hadn't figured anything out.

After pondering for a while, he asked Qi Yunhe to put the prayer flags on the beam again.

After a while, the third prince Xizhen hurried over with the imperial doctor.

Seeing this, the imperial doctor immediately treated Li Canghai's wound.

"Uncle Wang, what's wrong with you? Why did you suddenly hurt yourself?" Xizhen asked in astonishment.

Li Canghai shook his head and said, "It's okay, I just had a sudden headache and I couldn't hold it back for a while. This little injury is nothing to worry about."

After a pause, Li Canghai said to the third prince: "By the way, Xizhen, your father died between Yinshi and Maoshi. Where were you during this period?"

"Back to Uncle Wang, I was with Brother Second Brother at that time's residence." Xizhen said.

"Why did you seek Xiyuan?" Li Canghai asked.

"Oh, it's like this. I got a lonely copy of an ancient book, but that thing is useless to me. Thinking that Brother Er Wang likes to collect books, I gave the lonely copy to Brother Er Wang. Uncle Wang, why are you Suddenly asking this?" Xizhen asked a little blankly.

Li Canghai thought for a while and asked, "Do you know what your elder brother was doing at that time?"

"Brother Wang always gets up early at Yinshi every day to go to the palace school to practice martial arts. This is known to all." Xizhen replied.

Li Canghai lowered his head in thought, and said after a while: "Xizhen, go and ask all the princes, princesses, and concubines. I want to know what everyone who is acquainted with Brother Wang was doing at that time."

"Uncle Wang, do you think that the murderer who killed the king is among us?" Xizhen asked in surprise.

"I don't know. But if your father didn't commit suicide, the person who can kill him must be his closest person." Li Canghai said.

Hearing this, the third prince Xizhen's face instantly became serious. He bowed to Li Canghai in salute, and then immediately turned and left the Buddhist hall.
