Chapter 129 Key evidence

He did not plead guilty, but he did not defend himself. He just kept repeating that he did not kill anyone, as if he was crazy.

Chi Shi looked at it, and finally there was a hint of interest in her eyes. She raised her head and looked at Princess Duanhui, "Is the green robe worn by the princess, special? Otherwise, just the same clothes are not considered a proof."

The aunts who were good neighbors didn't even see the face, but saw a man's back, just dressed. As soon as they walked on the street, there were many people wearing the same robe.

Princess Duanhui was stunned. She had a noble status. Whoever talked to her was not just bent and smiling, but Chi Shi crossed his legs and looked stern, as if he was interrogating a prisoner.

"You speak very uncomfortable." Princess Duanhui said bluntly.

"If you feel comfortable speaking, you will investigate the case. You can go to Chufeng Hall to find a young man, who is suitable for investigating your case. I see, you rely on your power and have no evidence to overturn the case, so you force someone to overturn the case, which is also very uncomfortable."

"Well, I wish I could take off my shoes and throw them on your face. But I am a person who has virtue and is considerate of others, so I didn't say it. Now, I'll ask you."

Princess Duanhui's hand holding the teacup tightened. What did you mean that you didn't say it? Didn't you say it all?

"The cloth that made that dress is Suzhou's tribute satin. It is blue and blue, with faint weaving patterns of misty rain in the south of the Yangtze River. When the sun shines, it seems like you see water vapor, which is very special. It is just rewarded by the palace before the Dragon Boat Festival."

"I was young and energetic at that time, and I wanted my son-in-law to win the title of the leader in everything. Even my clothes wanted him to wear the first one, and I was the embroiderer in the mansion, who was working hard. He was the only one in the capital."

Princess Duanhui said, looking a little dazed. Every time she sewed clothes for Qi Yun for so many years, she thought that if she hadn't asked the prince-consort to wear that dress back then, he would have been not a person who likes to show off.

Chi Shi was speechless. How stupid is the prince consort?

Wearing unique clothes and using unique weapons to kill people? It's like he's afraid that others won't know, he's the murderer.

Either he did it impulse or he was framed.

"Where is the dagger? Before that, was the prince consort's dagger missing?"

Princess Duanhui shook her head, "We don't know. After he won the top scorer, he went to the Censorate to be the Censor. The Censor relied on his pen to make a living, and often had to go to the palace and could not carry a sharp weapon with him. Therefore, he had never used it after I gave him a dagger."

"It may not be necessary to be stolen!" Princess Duanhui's voice raised a little, but she lowered her head, "But I have no evidence. The prosecutors who investigated the case have asked these questions before."

It is because this case is too clear at a glance that makes people have nothing to ask.

"The prince consort was in the Censorate at that time. What was he investigating?" Chi Shi asked again.

"What do you ask about this? I don't know, the prince-consort has never been different from me. But, I know who knows, the old censor Liu knew that the old censor Liu was his peak at that time, and what he did, the old censor Liu knew, you can ask him."

Chi Shi was stunned and knocked his fingers on the table. Is Old Censor Liu?

Just before coming here, he had just heard of an old censor named Liu, whose son was beheaded.

Chi Shi's eyes moved slightly, "Why did you say that the prince consort did not kill people? Apart from your intuition? After all, the identity of Jiang and Qi Yun was not exposed at that time. If they died, he would make a huge profit."

"As you said, clothes are the only one in the world, that morning, the prince-consort really went to find Jiang. He had no evidence of his absence. As soon as he left, Jiang was killed."

Princess Duanhui lowered her head and raised her head suddenly, "The prince consort is very smart. Even if he kills people, he will not be in such a hurry. He will leave so much evidence. People next to him will panic, but he will not."

"Once a hunting trip, I accidentally fell into a hole, and there was a big snake inside. The prince consort killed the snake, killed it with one knife, and rescued me without any panic. Although he was a humble person, he was decisive in his work."

"and……"

Princess Duanhui paused, thought for a long time, and finally said, "And, on the day Jiang died, I was nearby and halfway up the carriage of the prince-consort. There is no wall in the world that is not leaking. Madam Liao next to me discovered the existence of Jiang."

"He was very calm at that time, without any panic. I slapped him in the face and left angrily. When I saw him, he had already been put into prison. He didn't look like he had killed anyone at all."

Chi Shi frowned, picked up the file and flipped it out, "You haven't said this before."

Princess Duanhui shook her head, "When I went to prison to see him, he told me not to say anything. If I say something, I will involve me, which will make people suspicious. I discovered the existence of Jiang and killed them, mother and son in anger."

"And the prince consort was just taking the blame for me, so he didn't say a word of excuse."

"I went to prison to ask him what was going on, and he didn't say anything. He was going to be beheaded, so what else can't be said? I can't figure it out. I have been thinking about it for more than ten years, and Qi Yun has gone from a child to an adult, but I still haven't figured it out."

Princess Duanhui said, and anxiously grabbed Chi Shi's hand, "But I really didn't kill anyone. When I overturned the case for the first time, I actually said it. But they said this could not be used as evidence of the innocence of the prince-consort, but instead proved that the prince-consort really went to Jinyin Lane that morning."

Chi Shi nodded, "Well, the prince consort was proven to be the murderer, thanks to the princess' hammer."

"I will investigate the case, but the princess should not come to the Chu Prince's Mansion during this period," Chi Shi said, and suddenly turned to Qi Yun, "You were five years old at that time. You were not dead, so you saw the murderer."

Qi Yun lowered his head sadly and shook his head.

Princess Duanhui immediately explained as soon as she saw it, "He was frightened and remembered nothing. Don't ask him."

Chi Shi glanced at Qi Yun deeply, "Is that right?"

Qi Yun didn't say anything, but still shook his head.

Chi Shi stopped asking, but stood up and walked towards the yard, "Jiule, let's go out."

This case seems simple, but not simple.

The murderer is probably not a prince consort, and he has no relationship with the princess' intuition.

The problem lies in that unique dress.

The prince consort wears clothes and daggers that can show his identity and kill people. Unless he dies stupidly, he can only kill people passionately before he dies. Otherwise, he can buy murderers and quietly let the Jiang family mother and daughter disappear in the capital, but he has not.

If he was indeed the murderer and killed someone before death, then his noble and unique robe should have blood. After all, there was a dagger inserted in Jiang's chest... It would be impossible for him to stomp down so hard that he would not be without blood.

Jiang's identity was not revealed at the beginning. It was because of his death that Jingzhao Mansion found the head of the prince-consort. After such a long period of time, he did not change his bloody clothes.

According to the documentary, the prince-consort was wearing the blue robe when he was arrested.

If he wasn't the murderer, why didn't he explain? Who was he defending?
