Just as he said this, Chu Xia, who was checking the situation outside through the gap behind the door, said anxiously: "It's not good! Leng Yi is coming this way!"

Princess Lu trembled and said, "I'll give you your guard robe, please leave quickly!"

"It's too late!" Long Jiong grabbed the soft rope, climbed up to the roof in a blink of an eye, then put the rafters in place and quickly laid the tiles.

He moved very quickly. As soon as he laid the paving, Leng Yi was already at the door.

When Long Jiong came up, Princess Lu had already swept the fallen snow on the ground under the bed with her feet.

Seeing Leng Yi coming outside, Chu Xia had no choice but to open the door. Just then Princess Lu turned around, saw Leng Yi, and forced a smile.

Leng Yi also smiled slightly and said: "The eldest princess knew that the minister was coming, so she opened the door to welcome him? This minister would not dare to accept it."

Princess Lu turned around, walked to the bed and sat down, and said coldly: "Didn't your Excellency already inquire about it? What else do you want to ask?"

Leng Yi stepped in, glanced at the little fallen snow left on the ground, and said: "It turns out that the princess is playing in the snow in the house. The princess has become a monk and a wife, but she still has a childlike innocence. It is really rare."

"I don't have time to listen to your nonsense. If you have something to say, please tell me quickly."

"Yes! Wei Chen has made a new discovery, so he came here to ask the eldest princess again. By the way, after thinking about it this morning, does the princess have anything to say to Wei Chen?"

"Telling you? Why am I telling you? I told you, if you have any questions, please ask me. I am very upset and want to sleep!"

"Sleeping?" Leng Yi looked up and down the neat dress of the eldest princess of the Lu Kingdom, and said: "The eldest princess is wearing this. Aren't you going to pay homage to the eldest princess's father, the late emperor?"

Princess Lu was shocked, as if she had seen a ghost. She stared at Leng Yi: "You! What did you say?"

Leng Yi did not answer. He glanced at Chu Xia, the maid next to him, and said, "Go out and ask the people on guard at the door to go away. I want to talk to the eldest princess!"

Chu Xia hurriedly agreed, saluted, and left. She closed the door, told the maids and eunuchs at the door, and walked away.

Leng Yi then said to the eldest princess of Lu: "Okay. Let's not play charades and let's get straight to the point. I know that the person who killed the beautiful lady Daji is you, the eldest princess! Isn't that right?"

Princess Lu smiled coldly and said, "What evidence do you have?"

Leng Yi took out two broken door bolts from his sleeves like a magic trick, and said: "This is the door bolt of Daji Beauty's Zen Room. Wei Chen was initially deceived by your and Dai Qin's words, thinking that it was really broken by the door.

, However, after Wei Chen thought about it and carefully inspected the door latch again, he made a major discovery. If the door was knocked open, then the broken front half of the door latch should have scratch marks on the door! The same reason. On the door

The edge corresponding to the door latch should also have traces of wear and tear after the door latch was scratched! However, after careful observation, Weichen found that the two places where traces should have been left were completely empty. So,

Wei Chen then understood that the door latch was not broken when the door was hit, but the door leaf was taken off and smashed with external force!"

The sneer on Princess Lu's face disappeared, and she looked at him with a somewhat hollow look in her eyes.

Leng Yi then said: "Wei Chen continued to observe the door bolt and discovered another very interesting phenomenon. I guess the eldest princess herself didn't notice it." Leng Yi pointed to the back half of the broken door bolt, with a small hole in it.

There was a thread tied to the hole, which was used to hang the door bolt next to the door latch frame so that it could be removed and inserted at any time. Leng Yi said, "Did you see it? This thread is relatively thin, but the hole in the door bolt is very thin.

It was relatively large. Wei Chen felt that such a big hole and the use of such a thin rope were indeed unnecessary. Since he had nothing to do, Wei Chen went to the next room to compare and found that it was different! The door latch in the next room was different.

The hole at the end of the door was obviously smaller than the door latch! However, the ropes were the same. I was surprised and looked at a few more rooms, and found that in the row of Buddhist rooms of Daji Beauty and the others, the holes in the door latch were all the same, and they were all smaller than the one on the door latch.

This little broken one went to the eldest princess's wing to check, and found that the holes in the door bolts were larger than those on the other side, and they were the same. Does the eldest princess know why?"

Princess Lu did not answer. There was fear in her eyes, as if Leng Yi's words were very scary.

Leng Yi seemed to be talking to himself: "Wei Chen asked the silly girl in the temple with this question, and then he realized that the two wings were built at different times and had different craftsmen, so the structure of the door latch was also different.

There are slight differences. However, Weichen is curious, why is the door latch of Daji Beauty Empress’ Zen Room different from the ones in the same row? Could it be that someone changed a certain door latch in your row to Daji Beauty’s Zen Room?

In any case, the door latches all look similar in appearance, and you can’t tell them apart without looking carefully. Wei Chen is very curious, whose door bolt has been replaced? Could it be the eldest princess’s room? Let Wei Chen take a look.

!”

After saying that, Leng Yi walked over with half of the door bolt, compared it with the door bolt of the meditation room, and exclaimed: "It's true, Princess, the hole in the door bolt of your meditation room is very small, it should be the wing over there.

Yes! The door latch of Daji Beauty’s Zen Room belongs to your room!”

Princess Lu finally spoke: "So what? Can it prove that this princess committed murder?"

Leng Yi smiled: "Evidences are like pearls. When strung together, they can prove the crime. Princess, don't worry, listen to Wei Chen slowly." Leng Yi slowly searched the room with his eyes.

, finally, her eyes fell on the quilt on Princess Lu's Zen bed. He walked over, picked up the quilt, shook it open, looked at the four corners, couldn't help but smile, picked up a corner, and pointed towards Princess Lu

As soon as it lit up, the despair in Princess Lu's eyes became even stronger. Her body began to tremble slightly.

Leng Yi knelt down, took a look under the bed, smiled again, reached in and took out a small axe. He said: "Just now, after Wei Chen discovered the mystery on the door latch, he wondered why the door latch should be changed? This answer is very interesting.

It's easy to get. If you really have to knock on the door late at night, there is no guarantee that the people next door will not be alerted. When the screen was knocked down, didn't it wake up Princess Wei's maid Lianqiu? The secret was almost exposed. So, you must be careful, if

In his room, he took off the door latch, covered it with a quilt, and then gave it a sharp chop with an axe. The door latch broke immediately. Not only was there no sound, but there were no sharp cuts on the door latch. A quick look revealed that it was indeed

Like something broken."

Leng Yi picked up the corner of the quilt and said: "The marks on it and the small ax under the bed are proof. Wei Chen discovered this secret by coincidence. Wei Chen went to ask Dasha girl about the wing room.

When the situation happened, she said something by the way, asking Wei Chen to bring a message to the eldest princess and return the ax she borrowed yesterday to her as soon as possible because she wanted to chop firewood for cooking. So Wei Chen wondered why the eldest princess borrowed the ax for

? In this way, we understand the purpose. This link is connected in a logical manner. However, the latter link has really troubled Wei Chen for a long time. The eldest princess must know what link it is? Because it is composed of the entire secret room.

The essential!"

Leng Yi looked at Princess Lu, but she lowered her eyes.

Leng Yi then said to himself: "This step is to close the door! Beauty Daji must close the door when she sleeps. Princess Lu wants to enter. But she can't really open the door, so she can only open the door through the window.

Think of a way. Although there is a door bolt outside the Zen room, there is no lock. Therefore, the Zen room is almost always open. Princess, it is easy for you to enter Daji Beauty's room, and it will not even arouse suspicion. Everyone is walking around in the temple.

When you are wandering around, there is no one in the wing. If you go in and unbolt the window, no one will notice. At night, you just wear the uniform of a guard, open a window that has been unbolted in advance, and climb in through the window.

The scene that Lianqiu saw appeared. You were tall and roughly similar to Long Zong in the dark. Naturally, Lianqiu was frightened and could not identify you in detail. He even mistook you for Long Zong. Thinking of his

He was so vicious that he was scared half to death. At that time, Wei Chen was very curious, why did the eldest princess wear Long Jiong's guard uniform?"

Princess Lu bit her lip gently, with no color on her face and no reply.

Leng Yi said: "We will come back to this question later, and continue with the analysis just now. After you entered Beauty Daji's room, you pressed her into a pile of clothes and suffocated her to death. Then, you used a very clever method to forge a

The Chamber of Secrets! That’s it!”

Leng Yi pointed to the round table in the Zen room, where there were two teapots!

Leng Yi said: "If Wei Chen is right, one of these two teapots is actually from Daji's beauty's Zen room! Take it out, close the door, pick up the snow on the ground and pour it in

After the crack in the door below is filled, you pour the cold tea in the teapot into the snow in the crack in the door below. In this way, the snow in the crack in the door below will quickly freeze into ice, and the bottom of the door will be covered with ice.

The threshold is tightly solidified and cannot be pushed open without strong force, which makes people mistakenly think that the door is locked from the inside!"

Princess Lu's lips had been bitten with two white marks. She lowered her head and her delicate body trembled like chaff.

Leng Yi did not stop and continued: "Princess, you are waiting here neatly before dawn just to wait for Daji Beauty's maid Dai Qin to knock on the door and call Daji Beauty. Then you go out immediately and pretend to help her take pictures.

The door, when Princess Wei and others came out to look, you slammed the door open in front of everyone. Those who entered saw the broken door latch on the ground and thought that the door was bolted from the inside and that you had knocked it open.

It's open. In fact, only you know that the door was just frozen by you watering it into ice! Wei Chen originally thought that the snow from the blizzard fell into the crack of the door below and was frozen.

But this inference is very problematic, because it is difficult for Luoxue to freeze the door. When Weichen discovered that there was no teapot on the table in Daji Beauty's room, Weichen thought of this possibility and observed it carefully again.

The ice frozen on the threshold was found to have a faint yellow color, which proves Wei Chen's inference that it was poured with tea."

After Leng Yi finished speaking, he looked at the eldest princess of Lu State calmly: "The eldest princess, do you have any excuses?"

Princess Lu smoothed her hair and said, "None of your so-called evidence touches the key point that I killed the beautiful Daji. How can you prove it?"

"How could Wei Chen not look for evidence for such a crucial plot? By the way, Wei Chen heard from the fifth prince that the eldest princess raised all kinds of bugs here, such as big green worms and so on. Can you open Wei Chen's eyes?

?”

Upon hearing this, Princess Lu felt as if she had been struck by lightning. She knew that Leng Yi would not look at these insects for no reason. Cold sweat broke out on her forehead, and she subconsciously glanced at a wooden cabinet in the corner of the room.

Leng Yi followed her gaze and couldn't help but smile: "By the way, this is it!" He went over to open the wooden box and saw that there were many small cages made of rattan and bamboo inside. There were also some ceramic jars inside.

There are grasshoppers, green caterpillars, caterpillars, four-legged snakes, dung beetles and other small bugs, which are creepy to look at.

Leng Yi glanced at it, reached in, opened the small ceramic jars and checked, and found that two of them were empty. He took them out, put them on the ground, and opened the lids.

Then, like a magic trick, he took out a porcelain vase from his sleeve and said to the eldest princess of Lu: "The contents of this porcelain vase were found by Wei Chen in the quilt that was scattered on Daji's beauty's bed.

At that time, Wei Chen slowly opened the quilt and saw these two things under the quilt. He looked at Wei Chen in awe. Wei Chen covered it with a tea cup and asked someone to find a porcelain bottle and put it in it to show to the eldest princess.

.Because, if Wei Chen's guess is correct, after Wei Chen opens it, if they are really raised by the eldest princess, they should crawl back to their nests!"

After saying that, Leng Yi carefully placed the porcelain bottle in his hand on the ground and opened the lid.

Two thumb-sized scorpions slowly crawled out from inside! The back part with scissor tails was curved and raised, and they looked around intimidatingly. After turning around a few times, they slowly crawled back.

Leng Yi smiled: "Princess, you took advantage of the eldest princess of Lu State to enter her room through the window while she was sleeping, and put these two poisonous scorpions into the quilt of beauty Daji. Then you climbed out of the window. In

Waiting outside, hoping that Beauty Daji will die from the scorpion stings. However, unexpectedly, the two scorpions were discovered by Beauty Daji before they stung her. She is the most afraid of bugs, and she found something on her body.

Climb, scaring her so much that she ran away from the bed, then turned around to see what was going on. In the panic, she lost her footing and fell backwards. The back of her head hit the blue brick floor, and she fainted immediately. You were worried, so you climbed through the window to check.

You found that beauty Daji was not dead, but just unconscious. You had expected this result, and you were ready to kill her yourself. You turned her over, face down, pressed her to her clothes, and killed her alive.

She suffocated to death! Then, you tied the window, went out of the room, threw half of the broken door latch that you had prepared in your own room on the ground, put the other half on the door frame, took away her door latch, and used it again.
Chapter completed!
