A Mistaken Marriage Match: A Generation of Military Counselor - Chapter 359
They didn’t say anything more. They went out of the silk weaving room together. Gu Yun is silent all the time. Zhuoqing says with a low smile, “do you think of anything?”
Gu Yun shook his head and said, “since the lady has friendship with the queen, why does her close maid attack the queen? Qiu Lian’s death in that year was suspicious, maybe related to this case. Find Hui Jun first, and there should be progress in the first trial. ”
Gu Yun always thinks that there seem to be many clues left in this case, but it’s like a buried line, which leads them to go in one direction. However, Gu Yun is not too confused and fidgety. When investigating a case, he is not afraid of many clues, but afraid of no clues. She can always find a breakthrough.
When they arrived at the prison, it was already evening. When the guard saw two women coming, he immediately stepped forward and said in a bad voice, “who are you? It’s the important place of the prison. No one can get close to you.”
“Unbridled.” The old eunuch sent by Gao Jin stepped forward and shouted, “these two are the wives of general Lou Xianghe su. I’m here to investigate the case. I haven’t asked you to come out yet.”
When the general heard that Lou Xiang and the general’s house were in a low mood, he nodded his head and ran in to report.
Gu Yun and Zhuo Qing have a look at each other. Both of them are quite helpless. As expected, there is no importance of “identity” in this palace.
Just a moment later, a tall man came out of the room. He saw the two of them coming up at once. They were very polite and even courteous. “It turned out that they were two ladies. They were impolite and disrespectful.”
Gu Yun did not exchange greetings with him, saying, “I want to see a female criminal named Hui Jun.”
“Hui Jun?” Zhang Chenyang frowned, hesitated a little, “this…” There are so many prisoners in the prison. He doesn’t remember his name. It’s just Huijun. He really knows. Ten days ago, the concubine Qing came to see the woman once, so he had some impressions. That woman has been locked up for six or seven years. How can so many people think about it?
Seeing the confusion and delay in his eyes, Gu Yun said in a cold voice, “we can’t see this man?”
“No, no, No.” Zhang Chenyang waved her hands repeatedly, not to mention that they were the sisters of the concubine of Qing Dynasty. He could not offend Lou Xianghe and Su generals. Zhang Chenyang quickly laughed, “naturally, she has been crazy since she was locked in. I’m afraid that I will frighten the two ladies.”
After a day’s walk, Zhuoqing was tired and said in a cold voice, “just take us to see you.”
“Yes.” Zhang Chenyang didn’t talk nonsense any more. He took them to a cell deep in the prison and opened the heavy iron door.
Gu Yun pressed Zhuo Qing’s shoulder and said, “I’ll go first.” Just now, hearing what Zhang Chenyang said, Hui Jun may be crazy. It’s better not to let Qing take risks.
Gu Yun goes into the prison and finds that the light in the prison room is very dark. There is only a small window that can transmit light. Now it’s evening outside. The prison room is so dark that he can only barely see things. Gu Yun looks around vigilantly. After he adapts to the darkness, he finds that there is no one in the prison room. He is about to question Zhang Chenyang. He looks up and points to the deep of the prison room. He replies: “Two madams ask in this room, she is in that room, separated by wooden fence, safer.”
Following the direction of Zhang Chenyang’s fingers, Gu Yun found that after the wooden fence, there was indeed a cell, but the cell was too dark and very quiet inside, she did not notice.
Hearing that there was still a wooden fence in the middle, Zhuo Qing also went in and said to Zhang Chenyang, who was standing outside with curiosity in his eyes, “go out first.”
Zhang Chenyang smiled and nodded back, “yes.”
When the man outside left, Gu Yun and Zhuo Qing looked at the prison room which was completely engulfed by the darkness. They stood there like this, but there was no movement in the dark. Zhuo Qing looked at Gu Yun doubtfully and asked silently, is there anyone in it?
Gu Yun nodded, and she heard the breathing in the corner. Pull Zhuo Qing away from the wooden fence. Gu Yuncai approaches in the dark and whispers, “Hui Jun?”
Because of this call, there was a heavy breath in the darkness, I don’t know whether it was because of fear or surprise. But I can only hear the restlessness in the dark, but I can’t see people.
Gu Yun thought about it, took out the silk handkerchief between his sleeves and asked, “have you seen this silk handkerchief?” In order to let the people inside see clearly, Gu Yun went to the place where the light could be reflected in front of the small window.
At the moment when Gu Yun unfolded the silk handkerchief, she expected that people in the dark could not remain indifferent, but she did not expect that the silk handkerchief had just shaken away, and a dark shadow rushed from the dark place immediately. The hand like a reed pole went through the fence, trying to seize the silk handkerchief in her hand.
“Who are you –”
the hoarse voice is as harsh as being run over by the wheel. The woman lying behind the wooden fence has an abnormal pale face, a thin body, and an obviously malnourished appearance. Her hair is dry and scarce. Her bloodshot eyes are staring at Gu Yun’s silk handkerchief, and her eyes seem to crack out.
“Who are you!” The woman was shouting and pawing at Gu Yun.
Although she looks terrible, Gu Yun doesn’t take a step back, but she has a headache now. This person’s eyes are lax, his behavior is manic, and his spirit should be abnormal. It’s not easy to interrogate such a person, but it’s very likely that he or she won’t get much. With a slight weight on her shoulder, Gu Yun looks back. Zhuoeqing blinks at her and says with a smile, “let me come.”
Gu Yun nods, hands the silk handkerchief to Zhuo Qing, makes sure that the position that she stands won’t be caught by that woman, and quietly retreats to one side.
“Hui Jun, calm down, we have no malice, just want to ask you a few questions.” The voice of green maple is still cool, but its tone is soft and its speed is very slow.
The woman is still staring at Zhuoqing’s handkerchief, frantically bumping forward and turning a deaf ear to Zhuoqing’s words.
Zhuoqing frowns slightly, which looks like psychogenic mental disorder. Zhuoqing puts away the silk handkerchief and loses the source of stimulation. Huijun finally turns to Zhuoqing, but the eyes are gloomy and straight. Zhuo Qing seized the opportunity to meet her eyes, and her soothing voice continued faintly: “do you know this silk handkerchief, is it the handkerchief of the lady of the imperial concubine?”
Two people look at each other, Gu Yun can feel that Hui Jun seems calm, but he doesn’t answer Zhuo Qing’s question.
“Do you know Yi Yue?”
Zhuo Qing continued to ask, Hui Jun black hole like eyes are still staring at her, mouth slightly moved, no sound.
The sky is getting darker and darker. No one talks anymore. The prison room is so quiet that you can only hear the breath of Hui Jun. Gu Yun is waiting quietly against the wall.
“What did you look for in the Queen’s palace?” After a long time, Zhuoqing’s voice sounded again. Compared with before, her voice was no longer soft, and there was a controlling force.
“Find a letter…”
The husky voice was pressed very low.
“What letter?”
“Letter…” The light gentleman is murmuring, a thin layer of perspiration oozes on the forehead.
“What does it say?” Zhuo Qing visualized the problem. Huijun had already calmed down. Now he began to be restless again. He hung his hand on his side to form a fist. His pale face was terrified. “No It’s a secret, a secret Say it and die! ”
Another secret? Gu yunhuan slightly tightens in front of his chest, and continues to listen.
Hui Jun’s mood fluctuated so much that Zhuo Qing immediately asked, “did you find the letter?”
“I found it.” Hui Jun answers this question very quickly.
“Where is the letter now?”
“In In… ” Huijun didn’t know what to think of. Youhei’s eyes were dyed with crazy color again, and his voice was as loud as screaming, “blood Lots of blood! Red! Red… Red red! ”
“Hui Jun?” Zhuo Qing wants to say something else. Hui Jun suddenly squats down and curls himself up. He holds his head in his hands and shivers. He says with all his strength, “I don’t know. I don’t know anything. Don’t kill me. Don’t kill me!”
Zhuo Qing suddenly stepped back, and Gu Yun hurriedly helped her. Zhuo Qing looked very tired, shook his head, and said, “she can’t ask anything like this. Let’s go.”
Gu Yun looks at the woman who has shrunk to the corner. She can only nod her head and help Zhuo Qing out of the prison.
It was late outside, and the cool autumn wind was blowing slowly, accompanied by a few strands of flowers that seemed to have no fragrance. Both of them breathed a long sigh of relief and exhaled the stuffy air in their chest. The smelly and dim light in the prison was oppressive.
After a busy day, Zhuoqing was a little out of strength. Gu Yun helped her to go to the palace gate. As she walked, he asked, “can Huijun be cured?”
Zhuo Qing was silent for a while and sighed, “it will take a lot of time. Now in such an environment, she will only become more and more serious.”
Gu Yun carefully recalled and sorted out Huijun’s reaction and words just now, trying to extract clues from them, “how credible is her words in this situation?”
“I tried to hypnotize her just now, but it didn’t work very well. In this case, she will not lie, but there are many logical confusion in her words or things that she imagined, which is easy to mislead you. ”
Gu Yun nodded and said the basic results of the investigation these days, and his own guess, “the death of Yi Yue and the madness of Hui Jun are all due to the” secret “. And it should be all about the queen. The key may be in a letter. ”
“Another secret.” They look at each other and smile.
Zhuo Qing and Gu Yun are out of the palace. Ruyi here has reported to Qingfeng about their movements today. “Niang, madam Lou and young girl went to the Silk Weaving Room in the afternoon, and then to the prison. They came out after half an hour.”
Qingfeng listened quietly and said, “you can quit.”
“Yes.” Ruyi nods and retreats.
Their movements were faster than she expected. Qingfeng gently rubbed the warm jade, but there was no temperature at the bottom of his eyes. Just check it out and don’t let her down.
