Chapter 021: A Deadly Letter.
Ye Bingyin followed Lei Batian and them to the Li Mansion again, but when they came to the Li Mansion, Li Yuanwai looked very nervous, as if he didn't want to see Lei Batian and them again.
Li Yuanwai's abnormality was quickly noticed by Ye Xing and Lei Batian, but they didn't say it.
"Li Yuanwai, I don't know what is unusual in your house recently?"
Li Yuanwai looked depressed and said: "What is abnormal about me here, that is, the murderer has not been caught for a day, and I am uneasy." ”
Lei Batian smiled secretly in his heart, but he didn't know how to lead Li Yuanwai to tell the real situation he encountered, but Ye Xing was smart, and he said to Li Yuanwai: "Actually, no matter who the murderer is, I think we should arrest Li Xian, the housekeeper of the Li Mansion, but what is the matter, I think he must not be able to get out of it." ”
But who knew that after Ye Xing said this, Li Yuanwai's face immediately changed, after Ye Xing saw it, he knew that he had guessed too much, when he went to save Sun Xi that day, he found that the two monks asked Li Xian to draw a charge, Ye Xing didn't pay much attention to it at that time, but then Ye Xing thought about it, and felt that there was something strange in it, and the two monks said that if they made this ticket, they would send it, and then they could enjoy it, then they must be trying to blackmail.
And it was blackmailing Li Yuanwai, what did they use to blackmail Li Yuanwai, this Ye Xing also thought of it, according to what Sun Xi told them, at that time, Li Xian said about himself and the second lady above the Buddha Hall, and the two monks must have heard it, after they heard it, they had that kind of thought, kidnapped Li Xian, and then asked him to sign and draw the detention, and then went to tell Li Yuanwai that they only got the ugly things of his second wife and the housekeeper, if Li Yuanwai didn't want the scandal to be exposed, he would obediently give them money.
Although Ye Xing thought so, but he didn't have any documents, Li Yuanwai looked embarrassed after listening to Ye Xing's words, and then said: "How can this Li Xian say that he is also the housekeeper of my house, although he is very suspicious, but we can't arrest him without evidence." ”
Ye Xing didn't expect that Li Yuanwai was still protecting his housekeeper Li Xian at this time, if Li Yuanwai knew that his housekeeper Li Xian was cheating with his second wife, what would he think, Ye Xing smiled after thinking about it.
But at this time, suddenly a little guy hurriedly came over, and then said to Lei Batian and them: "No...... No...... Oh no, the housekeeper Li Xian is dead. ”
"What, Li Xian is dead, how can he die?" Li Yuanwai asked in some surprise.
Lei Batian hurriedly stabilized them and said, "Don't panic first, let's go and see the scene." ”
The little guy led Lei Batian and Li Yuanwai to Li Xian's room, at this time Li Xian was lying on a table, and in front of him was a wine glass and wine jug, the wine glass had been poured and was not far from his hand.
After Lei Batian saw the scene, he could know with certainty that Li Xian died because of the glass of wine in his hand, Lei Batian took out a silver needle to test for poison and found that the pot of wine was really poisonous.
"Poisoned to death!"
Lei Batian said while examining the corpse, and at this time, Lei Batian suddenly took out something from Li Xian's arms, which was a letter, a letter that had not yet been opened.
For a while, the people in the whole room didn't dare to gasp, Lei Batian took a long breath, and then opened the letter, Lei Batian was taken aback after reading the letter.
Lei Batian put the letter on the table, and then everyone else squeezed forward to read it, the letter didn't have much to say, but it was absolutely shocking.
The beginning of the letter was very shocking: "The second lady was poisoned to death by me, that night, the lord asked me to get some snacks for the second lady, I finally found an opportunity, because I have always hated the second lady, I am a housekeeper, but the second lady just treats me as a dog to watch the house, I am also a human being, I also have dignity, I don't want to be bullied by a woman, and she is still a **." ”
The letter is short, but it makes everything clear.
The second lady turned out to be killed by the housekeeper, Li Yuanwai was immediately angry, and he was even a little crazy, he kicked Li Xian off the chair, and he also scolded: "You brute, the second lady looks up to you by treating you as a dog, and you don't know how to kill people......"
Li Yuanwai's scolding was very unpleasant, his second wife died, and the second lady still had his own child in her belly, how could this not make him hate.
It was already obvious to this place, Li Xian killed the second lady, but after that, he was scared and guilty, so he committed suicide in fear of sin.
But is that the truth of the matter? Of course not, because Ye Xing and they already knew that Li Xian had an affair with the second lady, so how could Li Xian leave such a letter, obviously, Li Xian was framed by someone, and he also committed suicide in fear of crime.
But how did that murderer do this, he killed the second lady silently, and then killed Li Xian here.
Lei Batian finished examining Li Xian's body, but the results of the examination were beyond their expectations, Li Xian died not long ago, that is, as soon as Li Xian died, that little guy came to call them.
This is very strange, as if the task of that little guy is to wait for Li Xian to die.
The little guy was standing there, he was very scared, and after Lei Batian called him over, he asked, "How did you find Li Xian's body?" ”
The little guy replied cautiously: "But I want to go to the account room with Steward Li to see a batch of goods, but when I was leaving, Steward Li said that he forgot something, so he asked me to wait at the door, but when I waited for a long time, I didn't see Steward Li come out, I was very worried, so I broke down the door and broke in, and found out about this situation, and then I immediately went to call you." ”
After the little guy finished speaking, Lei Batian and they were all confused, if this is the case, how did the murderer sneak in and kill people, at that time, Li Yuanwai was with them to discuss things, and this little guy was standing outside the door, if someone went in, he couldn't see it, could someone be invisible?
Ye Xing smiled when he thought of this, in the twenty-first century, science and technology are so developed, they have not been able to invent things that can make people invisible, how can there be invisible people in this Ming Dynasty, but there are no invisible people, Ye Xing is also anxious, because they really don't know how Li Xian was killed, although they know that Li Xian was poisoned, but who gave this poison?
