Chapter 784: Reconsider

Chapter 784 Reconsidered.

Naturally, everyone would not believe Ye Xing's words, but they still had questions.

Di Xiaojie saw Ye Xing say this, so he immediately asked, "How can Brother Ye confirm that these two adults were killed by someone who broke their necks, and that child was suffocated to death?" ”

Ye Xing smiled slightly, came to the corpse, and said: "There are obviously broken bones on the necks of the two adults, it is very likely that when the fire started, they were smashed by something on the beam, but it is not ruled out that they were twisted off their necks, so let's take a look at the mouths of these two adults, if they die of suffocation, then they will definitely open their mouths wide to breathe, in this way, their mouths will definitely be blackened by black smoke, but the mouths of these two adults are very clean, which shows that when they are angry, They have been killed, and if their mouths are closed, they will naturally not leave anything, but this child's mouth is different. ”

Everyone looked at the child's mouth, and it turned out that the child's mouth was very dark, and after seeing these two completely different situations, everyone already understood what was going on.

After a long time, Ye Xing spoke: "Judging from these corpses, we can know that this is a murderer who wants to kill people, so the person who killed Geng Jia cannot be Song Chengju, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites." ”

"But Feng Ma is very likely to be killed by Song Chengju?" Xu Ruoxuan hurriedly said.

Ye Xing shook his head: "Feng Ma is just a small subordinate of the Horse Mansion, how can he know Song Chengju, and the murderer wants to kill Feng Ma, it must be because Feng Ma knows what the murderer has done, or Feng Ma does something for the murderer, and then the murderer kills people for this matter." ”

"Who will be the murderer who can let Feng Ma, the subordinate of the Horse Mansion, do things for him?" Di Xiaojie said to himself.

At this time, Hua Zhimeng said: "The only ones who can make Feng Ma dare not disobey are Princess Yong'an and the concubine Yuan Rong, of course, the housekeeper Meng San is also very likely, but what did Meng San do when he killed Geng Jia?" ”

Because of the appearance of Feng Ma's corpse, everyone didn't know what to do for a while, and everyone was already sure that Song Chengju was the murderer, but now they don't even have a suspect.

Things and cases have to be reconsidered.

After examining the corpse, Ye Xing asked the corpse to be transported away, so in early summer, the temperature continued to rise, and it was really inappropriate to leave a few corpses in the Zhongshan Palace.

After the body was transported away, Ye Xing said to everyone: "Let's go to Feng Ma's house and have another look, and see if we can find some clues about the murderer." ”

"But where has it been in ruins, burned out?" Di Xiaojie asked with some puzzlement.

Ye Xing shrugged helplessly and said, "There is no way, who let us have no clues at all now, so we can only go to the scene to check it." ”

They really had no choice, so on this relatively hot afternoon, their group went to the countryside.

The environment in the countryside is much better than that of the capital, and the trees are shady, and the birds are singing and the flowers are fragrant.

When they arrived at Feng Ma's burned home, there was still smoke in that place, and the people nearby stood aside and sighed, sighing for what happened to Feng Ma.

Ye Xing looked at the burned house, and he was very sad in his heart, but the person was dead, and it was useless for him to be sad, the only thing he could do now was to find the murderer and avenge them.

Ye Xing sent a few people to pick up the ashes piece by piece, and he hoped to find some clues from the ashes.

It's a very time-consuming thing, but they have no other way, and even if it takes time, they have to do it.

Until dusk, they hadn't finished picking, but they were still picking, and at this time, a servant was very surprised and said: "King Daming, I found this!" ”

Everyone followed the prestige, only to see that there was a jade ring in the hand of that person, the ring was burned very black, when the layer of black was erased, it can be seen that it is a very valuable ring, like Feng Ma, I am afraid that it is impossible to afford such a ring in his life.

Ye Xing took the ring and looked at it, and said, "It is very likely that this ring was accidentally dropped here by the murderer, let's look for it again and see if there are any other things." ”

They searched the ruins, but nothing else.

Seeing this, Ye Xing and the others had no choice but to take the ring back, which was already a harvest for them, and the harvest was not small.

When they returned to the Zhongshan Palace, it was getting late, and several of them were tired, so after taking a bath, they went to bed separately.

The moonlight is good tonight, and when the wind blows, it is cool and very helpful for sleep.

The next day, Ye Xing got up early, they had to know who the ring they found yesterday was, it was a troublesome and very likely inconclusive thing to find someone according to the ring, but even so, they still had to look for it.

The workmanship of this ring is very good, and there are not many jade stores in the entire capital that buy such rings, so it is not difficult to find some clues.

Ye Xing and the others found several shops in the capital that did jade business, but the results they got were very disappointing, and the people in the shops did not remember that they had ever sold such rings.

There seems to be no hope for anything.

They ordered some food at an inn, and they decided to go back after dinner.

While eating, Ye Xing inadvertently held the ring in a daze, and at this time, an innkeeper said in surprise: "This ring is so familiar!" ”

Ye Xing heard this inn guy say that he had seen this ring, so he hurriedly asked, "Have you seen this ring, on whose hand did you see it?" ”

The innkeeper looked at the ring for a moment, scratched his head, and said, "It seems to be Meng San, the housekeeper of the Horse Mansion, I remember that he brought this with him when he came to eat with us a few days ago." ”

After listening to the innkeeper's words, Ye Xing and the others suddenly had an irrepressible excitement, and their appetite increased greatly because they learned the owner of the ring, so they ordered a few more good dishes.

After lunch, Ye Xing and the others walked on the street, Di Xiaojie asked excitedly: "Brother Ye, now we know that this ring belongs to Meng San, the housekeeper of the Horse Mansion, he must be the one who set fire to Feng Ma the night before, should we go and arrest him?" ”

Ye Xing has been silent, he is also thinking about whether to arrest Meng San, but killing Feng Ma is to kill people and extinguish his mouth, if it was Meng San who set the fire the night before, then why did Meng San kill Geng Jia?

For Meng San, he had no motive to kill Geng Jia at all!
