Chapter 53 Shaomai (2)
Lin Fei raised his eyelids and said, "Look!"
Liu Yuan held the storybook and said, "I've read it!"
Lin Fei glanced at him and said, "Then let's take a look!"
Liu Yuan: "..."
When he was in a daze, Lin Fei stopped what he was doing, raised his head, and looked over at him: "The book "The Pavilion of Resurrection" on Li Ruizhi's desk was clearly half-read. After he claimed that he had not finished reading it, I Half of them even saw the bookmark between them, why did he lie?"
Liu Yuan: "..." He really didn't notice this detail.
"There is a circle of obvious white marks on the wrist of his right hand, which seems to have been worn with something on the wrist. Because it is often covered by things and cannot be seen in the sun, these marks are left. Now, the thing has been taken off. But the white mark has not recovered yet, it was obviously removed not long ago, that is, it may have been removed in the past two days or even before meeting us," Lin Fei said.
Liu Yuan: "...Lin Shaoqing is very observant and meticulous, and is not as good as the lower officials."
Lin Fei glanced at him and added: "The trace seems to be a braided hand rope, and the hand rope seems to be tied with a small concentric lock."
Liu Yuan: "..." Shangfeng understands this quite well!
However, although he did not notice the concentric lock on Li Ruizhi's wrist, from the name, he knew that it was an object between lovers. After thinking about this, I remembered that Shangfeng had asked Li Ruizhi one after another about whether he could get married, engaged, and if he had a sweetheart, and then he understood it.
"Then Li Ruizhi has a sweetheart," Liu Yuan thought for a while and said, "But we have never heard of the existence of that sweetheart from people around the Huai'an County Government."
Lin Fei glanced at the book "The Resurrection Pavilion" and said: "A talented man is down and out, and he is proud of his high school career."
Li Ruizhi was certainly a down-and-out talented man. Although he had never graduated from high school, he felt very proud once he was adopted by the Duke of Huai'an.
"When I meet the daughter-in-law who was married back then, the daughter-in-law is not doing well," Lin Fei said.
As for what’s not a good idea…
"The husband that the rich lady's family chose for her is a polite scum who flirts with women outside and beats her inside." Lin Fei reminded Liu Yuan.
When Liu Yuan heard this, he couldn't help but frown: he always felt that the situation described was inexplicably familiar, but for a moment he couldn't remember where he had heard it before.
Lin Fei glanced at Liu Yuan, shook his head, took the storybook out of his hand, and said, "Wait a minute, it's almost over!"
How fast is it?
Just after Youshi arrived, a carriage appeared in front of the Dali Temple.
When he received the news, Liu Yuan was sitting in the public kitchen, eating the public kitchen's dusk food one bite after another. After occasionally looking up at the table, he felt that Master Wang's old face was becoming more and more undesirable.
After finally finishing the food in the bowl, Liu Yuan stood up and left the kitchen.
Before he had taken two steps, he met Bai Zhu, who was walking towards him. When he saw him, he hurriedly called to him and said, "Lin Shaoqing, please let us go over quickly!"
Liu Yuan said "Oh", stepped faster and caught up with Bai Zhu.
When he walked into the hall and saw the woman standing there, Liu Yuan was stunned: "This... this is not..."
The woman who turned around after hearing the voice bowed slightly towards him and spoke, her voice as hoarse as a broken gong and drum: "Liu Sicheng."
Bai Zhu behind him had never seen the woman in front of him before, but he felt a little weird looking at the woman in front of him who was pale and still wrapped in a thick cloak on a hot day, covering her whole body tightly.
Is it because of bad health? still……
Just as he was thinking this, he heard Liu Yuan in front exclaim and named the woman's identity: "Mrs. Yan, why are you here? Didn't you provoke the cold?"
Lin Fei, who had not spoken since they came in, put down the medical book in his hand and said, "The symptoms of wind cold are not like this."
Hearing this, the woman smiled bitterly and admitted: "I did not catch any cold."
Why would you wrap yourself up so tightly in a cloak if you weren't caught by the wind and cold? Bai Zhu was puzzled.
Moreover, looking at the shaky appearance of the woman, she does not look like a healthy person.
The woman coughed twice, paused for a moment, and then spoke again, "I'm here to surrender."
Liu Yuandong and Bai Zhu were shocked by the words.
Lin Fei on the other side looked at her and asked, "To surrender to kill Yan San and others?"
The woman nodded and said, "Yes, I am the mastermind behind the death of Yan Santong and those others."
Lin Fei said "hmm" and nodded. Before Liu Yuan and Bai Zhu could react, he said, "Follow me!"
After that, he strode out the door.
Liu Yuan and Bai Zhu, who didn't realize it at the time, quickly followed.
The group of people followed Lin Fei into the Dali Temple prison, and then walked directly to the door of the cell where Li Ruizhi was imprisoned.
When the jailer opened the cell door and Li Ruizhi, who was imprisoned inside, looked up and saw Mrs. Yan, his expression suddenly changed, and he blurted out in shock: "Qingqing, what are you doing here?"
Mrs. Yan smiled at her, her face was still pale, but her eyes when looking at Li Ruizhi were very soft.
She did not answer Li Ruizhi's words, but followed Lin Fei and walked in. She walked up to Li Ruizhi, looked at him and said, "These are the things I begged him to do for me."
Li Ruizhi frowned after hearing this sentence, and opened his mouth to speak when he heard Mrs. Yan speak again: "Ruizhi, you and I are already like this, why bother implicating others?"
"The person named Lu Qing knew about He Xiaoniang's murder because I revealed it to him. My original intention was to make him the scapegoat." Mrs. Yan said, covering her eyes and smiling bitterly, " I’m not a good person either.”
By the time she put down her hand covering her eyes, Mrs. Yan's eye circles were already red.
Li Ruizhi looked at Mrs. Yan with red eyes and murmured: "Qingqing..."
"The maid of Zhang Zeduan had endured Zhang Zeduan for a long time, and was coerced by me and Li Ruizhi, so she lied. I hope you will be lenient and give me a lenient sentence." Mrs. Yan bowed slightly to Lin Fei.
Lin Fei looked at her and asked, "Why did you kill Yan San and others?"
"Why?" Upon hearing this, Mrs. Yan murmured softly, looked at everyone, took a step back, subconsciously moved further away from everyone, then raised her hand and untied the cloak that wrapped her body airtight.
When the cloak was untied and the summer shirt underneath was revealed, Liu Yuan and Bai Zhu immediately gasped.
However, Mrs. Yan's exposed neck and arms were covered with red rashes, some of which had even festered and turned pus.
"What...what's going on?" The two of them murmured.
Lin Fei, who taught himself medicine, looked at it for a moment, frowned, and said, "It seems to be a flower fistula."
The two of them were even more shocked after hearing this sentence. They looked at the pale Mrs. Yan in disbelief: "She...how could she have flower fistula?"
Isn’t it true that only brothel girls and their clients are most likely to suffer from this symptom?
