The Brocaded Tale of The Girl Si

After listening to Yu Jin's analysis, everyone suddenly felt hairy.

The murderer is so meticulous and bold, it is beyond expectations.

This is a royal family banquet. The most noble people in the world are here. Who is so bold?

King Yan said that the real culprit was among the people in the hall... Thinking of this, many people couldn't help but fight a cold war.

There seems to be too many ice basins in the main hall.

Yu Jin clenched his fists at Emperor Jing Ming: "Father, there are many people in the palace, so we should start with this maid, and first determine whether she was instructed to poison her or was carelessly exploited."

Emperor Jing Ming nodded and said lightly, "Pan Hai, pry open the mouth of this maid."

Pan Hai responded immediately, and with a wave of his hand, two servants came up and dragged the palace maid down.

The two servants belonged to Dongchang.

Everyone's color changed, only to feel that the atmosphere in the hall was dignified and depressed, and they couldn't breathe well.

Yu Jin looked around and said loudly: "Until there is no news, please don't walk around, let alone let one person leave the hall."

The atmosphere became heavier.

After a long wait, Pan Hai finally came back: "Your Majesty, after the interrogation, the palace maid really didn't know about it."

The maid did not appear again.

Of course, it is impossible to ask questions only by mouth, but to use punishment, and those who have used Xing describe it as terrifying, and there is no special order not to bring it in to disturb the nobles.

Emperor Jing Ming looked at Yu Jin.

With so many people in the hall, the possibility that the maid was instructed by others was ruled out. To find out who was poisoned was like looking for a needle in a haystack. He was very curious as to what else this son could do.

Yu Jin's face calmly swept over the crowd: "Today is a family banquet, although the male and female guests are not separated by screens, etc., but the princesses are all girls' homes, if a man walks over, it will definitely attract attention, so I think it can be ruled out that the murderer is the culprit. The possibility of men, I wonder if you have any opinions?"

Everyone nodded secretly.

At the beginning of the banquet, the seats are all carefully selected. There is a table for the concubines on the women’s side, a table for the princesses who have not left the court, another table for the princesses who have left the court, plus the concubines, princesses, and so on.

And those who walk in this area are all palace maids, and there are no inner servants.

In this case, King Yan's analysis is very reasonable, and the murderer must be a woman.

Seeing that everyone agreed with his words, Yu Jin glanced over the wine tables and said, "There are nine tables in total. If you want to find the murderer, the method just now is enough."

The way just now?

The crowd did not respond for a while.

Jiang Shi looked at the man who was talking eloquently, his eyes were soft.

This is how Ajin is. He looks bohemian and does whatever he wants on weekdays. He is always reliable when he really encounters things.

Yu Jin rolled his eyes and looked at Jiang Si for a moment, then continued, "From the first table, everyone should recall who left their seats before the incident."

Concubine Xian and the others sat at the first table, and immediately there was a concubine who said, "I was chatting with my sisters at the time, where should I pay attention to who left their seats?"

Yu Jin smiled and said, "It's easy to do, Niang Niang just needs to recall whether anyone left at that time."

Everyone was stunned.

This method is really good.

It is easy to distract attention in lively occasions, and few people will always pay attention to the movements of the people at the table. It is much easier if they just remember what the people on the left and right are doing.

This method also has an advantage, because everyone is sitting around, so everyone is on the right of the person on the left and the left of the person on the right, and can be noticed by two people. In this way, even if one person does not pay attention, it is not harmful. .

With Emperor Jingming present, no matter how reluctant they were in their hearts, the dozen or so concubines still cooperated with Yu Jin to recall,

When it was Concubine Xian's turn to speak, she took a deep look at Yu Jin and said calmly, "Bengong didn't know what the two of them were doing at the time, because Bengong went out at that time."

Everyone's expressions suddenly became subtle.

Unexpectedly, the first person who was sure to leave the seat at that time was King Yan's mother concubine, and Concubine Xian obviously knew that she could not escape using the method of King Yan, and directly admitted it.

Yu Jin's expression didn't change at all, and he asked lightly, "Where did the maiden go?"

"I'm going to change clothes.

"

On this occasion, changing clothes is a euphemism, but in reality it is a gesture of respect.

Yu Jin asked again, "It's just not long after the banquet, why did the empress need to change?"

As soon as he asked this question, everyone suddenly looked strange and exchanged glances with each other.

King Yan is really upright, he is so aggressive and ruthless towards his mother and concubine.

Some people are thinking: From this point of view, it is true that the relationship between King Yan and Concubine Xian is not on good terms.

Concubine Xian felt embarrassed to be asked by her son in full view of the public.

This beast has a face to ask!

Why would she come out? Still not mad at this scumbag.

She watched with cold eyes that the two couples became more and more angry, but she couldn't reveal it at all, she could only keep drinking tea to suppress the fire. After drinking a belly of tea, her stomach became bloated.

"I'm a little unwell." Concubine Xian's face was calm, and her tone was not a little angry, "The maid of this palace and the maid serving in the dressing room can testify."

Concubine Xian's words were quickly confirmed.

"Does King Yan have anything else to ask?" Concubine Xian asked lightly.

Yu Jin smiled and let out a white tooth: "No more. My son asked carefully, and I didn't want others to misunderstand the mother. I believe that the mother won't blame me, right?"

Before waiting for Concubine Xian to speak, Emperor Jing Ming said: "Lao Qi, go ahead and ask, your concubine is a reasonable person, how can you blame you?"

Concubine Xian smiled and echoed Emperor Jing Ming's words: "Your father's words are very true, of course this palace will not blame you."

"That's good." Yu Jin gave a warm reply, and began to ask about the next table.

The second table was Princess Rongyang and other royal relatives of the same generation as Emperor Jing Ming. After the banquet started, Cui Mingyue, who was next to Princess Rongyang, went to her seat.

There was also a person at this table who left before the incident, and that was Princess Rongyang.

Seeing everyone looking over, Princess Rongyang raised her eyebrows and said a little impatiently: "I was toasting the emperor at the time."

Emperor Jing Ming nodded: "Yes, Rongyang was toasting me and the queen at that time."

The reason why he didn't say it in advance was because he understood that only by taking the lead in cooperating with the seventh, the royal family and nobles would be honest.

Princess Rongyang cleared her suspicions, and Heng Yu gave him a sincere look.

Yu Jing ignored it and continued to question the next table.

It didn't take long for the female guests at the eight tables to ask questions, and they asked how many people left their seats at that time, but all of them could confirm what they were doing at that time.

For a while, the investigation seemed to have stalled.

Princess Rongyang said lukewarmly, "Brother Huang, the ministers and sisters saw that King Yan's method was not going to work. So many people asked about it, but they didn't find out why."

Another old prince said, "After all, King Yan is young. Your Majesty, let's order the three judicial divisions to cooperate with the clan's mansion to conduct a thorough investigation."

Emperor Jing Ming fixedly looked at Yu Jin, his tone was slow: "Seventh, what else do you think?"

Yu Jin smiled: "Father, in fact, there are still some people who have not been found."
