Rural Female Detective - Chapter 109 Suspected Objects

Gongsun Xiao had prepared a sedan chair for Song Yao, probably because he was afraid that her injuries had not recovered yet.

When the two of them reached Drunken Fragrance Pavilion, the OP welcomed them at the door. When he saw Song Yao, he immediately said: “Oh, look who’s here, didn’t some people say when they left that they won’t come again?”

The Tower Lord acknowledged as he reached out to support Song Yao and asked with concern, “How’s your waist? Are you better? ”

“You know I have a broken waist?” Song Yao said.

The tower lord clicked his tongue and said, “How can you say that? I already knew when the Marquis came to His Highness for a doctor the other day.”

Song Yao was startled, and her heart suddenly didn’t feel good. She looked up at Gongsun Xiao, who was already on the second floor, and pushed open the door to enter.

Why was he so devoted to himself? This made Song Yao a little flustered. Maybe it was true, she already had no way to escape from their circle, right?

After everyone had sat down, the tower lord said, “Your Highness hasn’t arrived yet, so we might have to wait a bit.”

Gongsun Xiao said: “I have communicated with him through a letter, I think that it will take awhile, you don’t have to worry, go busy yourself.”

“Alright.” Tower Lord responded with a grunt. He turned around and was about to leave, but was stopped by Song Yao, and asked: “Jiu Guniang, do you have any news?”

The Tower Lord stopped and turned around, “There’s no news. I only went to see her once. She told me not to go again, so I didn’t go.”

Song Yao said somewhat dejectedly: “I wonder if she will blame me.”

The Jiu Guniang said she wanted me to thank you for her. If you didn’t wake her up in time, she might not have realized her mistake. ”

Song Yao shook her head. “I … She doesn’t need to thank me. It was her own conscience that saved her life. ”

“Yes.” The tower lord agreed and said, “Then I’ll go back to my work. If you need anything from Master Hou, just call me.”

The tower lord was stunned for a moment before smiling. “Naturally, you have to receive guests in her room. Otherwise, do you think that the lady in my room will be sleeping all day?”

Song Yao replied with an “Oh” and felt a little disappointed: “Go back to your work.”

The tower lord nodded and left with a smile.

Song Yao lied on the table, feeling a little unhappy.

“Why are you always like this? Weren’t you very happy just now? “Why is he like this again?”

“Isn’t temperamental a human trait? What’s so strange about that? “When the day comes when I can’t even cry or laugh, you will miss me.”

“Why are you talking so far away? Weren’t you always laughing heartily? And why can’t you laugh? ”

Song Yao was silent for a moment. “Forget it, let’s quiet down for a while and wait for the hall to descend.”

Song Yao was startled for a few seconds, then said: “Wa, why are you so focused on listening to people talk about walls, you did not even make a sound, luckily I did not say anything excessive.”

Gongsun Xiao stood up and cupped his fists as he bowed: “Your Highness.”

Rong Chu waved his hand, sat down, and asked: “How’s your waist injury?”

Song Yao replied: It still hurts, can I not be courteous?

Rong Chu said: “Since when have I been greeted in private by you? Weren’t you always so impudent? This King is already used to it. ”

He took the tea that Gongsun Xiao had passed to him and asked: “You were looking for me, was it because Li Zhi’s matter has progressed?”

Song Yao nodded his head: “A little, but the most important thing is that I have yet to figure it out, so I came to look for you to learn, and see if you can help me point out some clues.”

“Oh?” Rong Chu was suspicious: “Both of you don’t understand?”

Gongsun Xiao said: “We found out Mingyue’s identity, and she also had a good motive, but looking at all the evidence we have, we simply can’t think of how she managed to poison us.”

“Oh?” Rong Chu was suspicious.

Song Yao said, “That’s right, we did not discover any poison on anything at the scene. In the entire Li Residence, other than Li Zhi who had eaten the arsenic, the only person who was in contact with us was that poisoned cat. However, at the time of the incident, no one noticed that there was a cat at the scene, or something related to cats. ”

Gongsun Xiao nodded his head, “Exactly so. Right now, this cat’s arsenic was bought by a doctor from Li Residence, he used the rest of it to ingest the medicine, but there is a possibility that he was lying.”

Song Yao was startled, then said: “Why do you say that?”

Gongsun Xiao said, “It’s also possible that the remaining arsenic was simply lost or stolen. However, he chose to lie because he was afraid that it would implicate himself.”

Song Yao: “…”

Rong Chu said: “If that’s the case, then it is not an impossibility. It’s just that the timing of his purchase is too coincidental. Buying something that’s clearly prohibited by the Li Residence is a serious matter.

Song Yao nodded: “I suspect that as well. Furthermore, yesterday, I was chatting casually with Zhou Miao, Zhou Miao said that Master Shang Shu had a good friend in the royal family, after that he became the doctor used by the Li Residence, but I haven’t seen him for a long time, I don’t know where he is now.

“Eh? You guys said that yesterday? ” Gongsun Xiao asked.

Song Yao nodded her head: “She said it casually, and I just randomly randomly listened, but I always felt that it might not be related. Didn’t Li Wanji previously say that he had killed five people because of Li Zhi’s life? Since it is someone who knows, how could Li Zhi’s personal doctor not know? ”

“You mean he’s not dead?” Gongsun Xiao asked in surprise, “Is he the doctor for Li Residence?”

Rong Chu said: “I don’t think so. The last time I went to call the doctor from Li Residence to ask, she was only around twenty years old, and the imperial physicians that had dismissed the officials in the palace were not this young.”

Song Yao looked at Gongsun Xiao: “I don’t think so either, after all this is an extremely important matter, Li Wanji would not allow such a loophole to appear.”

Gongsun Xiao: “… The more I think about it, the more I feel that I am not suited to thinking about such things. Forget it, I will not comment on it for the time being.

Rong Chu laughed and said: “Why would Ming Yu say such words? You have merely stayed in the garrison camp for too long, and haven’t thought about it for too long. Speaking of which, if it wasn’t for that incident last time, you would probably still be staying there. ”

Gongsun Xiao said: “There is nothing bad about that place, there is no need to spend so much effort to think about things. Look at me, my hair is turning white from thinking about it.”

Rong Chu laughed.

Gongsun Xiao said: “Then, do you suspect that doctor?”

Song Yao said: “I’m not sure, the main thing I want to do now is to understand how this murderer poisoned him or her.”
