142 The Seventh Lady 12

"Entertainment Father, I'm going to go to Hanwen Library." Bo Ruoyou said anxiously, and looked at Eunuch Fu again, "My father-in-law, may you please send the attendants of the Marquis's Mansion to send my adoptive father home?"

Eunuch Fu nodded naturally and Cheng Yunzhi said: "But I figured out the joints of the case."

Bo Ruoyou nodded, "I figured out one thing, and my daughter will go to the yamen later-"

Cheng Yunzhi didn't ask much. Huo Qinghong looked at Bo Ruoyou curiously, but his eyes were filled with a little bit of aroused, "Where have you figured out? What are you doing in the library?"

Bo Ruoyou was anxious to go to the library, too lazy to talk to Huo Qinghong. Seeing that she was about to leave, Huo Qinghong also stood up, "I want to go and see it too-"

Eunuch Fu was a little helpless, "What are the princess going to do?"

Huo Qinghong said pitifully for a moment: "I haven't left the gate of the Marquis' Mansion for half a year."

This is the truth. Bo Ruoyou's heart moved slightly when he heard this, and he said, "It's nothing to go with the prince, but I don't care about the prince."

Huo Qinghong grabbed his head, "I want you to care?"

Bo Ruoyou didn't say much and went straight out of the mansion. Huo Qinghong ordered people to prepare horses. When Eunuch Fu saw that he was in a state of mind, he hurriedly ordered the attendants of the Hou Mansion to follow him. Soon, the group separated outside the mansion.

Bo Ruoyou took a carriage to Hanwen Library. The library was not far from Lanzhengfang. On the way, Bo Ruoyou was muttering something, as if he was calculating something. When the carriage stopped in front of the library, Bo Ruoyou got off the carriage and entered the library.

She came to the shopkeeper and asked only the book "The Book of Searching Chai". What the shopkeeper said was indeed the same as the servant of the Feng family. Bo Ruoyou hurriedly asked: "Then are many people coming to buy this book these days?"

The shopkeeper smiled, "Of course there are many. This story is the latest story. There are two restaurants who want to compose music rules for the book and sing. The girl is here to buy the story book."

Bo Ruoyou shook his head naturally, "Do you remember who came to buy it thirteen days ago?"

The shopkeeper frowned for a moment, "After so many days, I can't remember it anymore, but there were not many people buying it in the first two days, but we don't specifically remember the appearance of customers. Moreover, the library is in and out of the whole day, so I really can't remember it..."

Bo Ruoyou was a little disappointed, Huo Qinghong looked around, "What, are you wrong?"

Bo Ruoyou shook his head, turned around and left the library and headed straight towards the yamen. Huo Qinghong was a little confused for a moment, but hurriedly followed. When he arrived at the yamen, he happened to meet Wu Xianggang coming back from outside.

Seeing Bo Ruoyou, Wu Xiang said with a depressed look on his face and found nothing. Seeing Huo Qinghong coming, he was very surprised. But Bo Ruoyou said, "Catcher, I know why Liu Yao looks dead in the secret room-"

"Do you know?" Wu Xiang's eyes lit up first, but soon he grabbed the point, "How do you seem to die in a secret room?"

Bo Ruoyou said with a serious expression: "Because this secret room was not arranged by the murderer, but Liu Yao locked the door from the inside, which caused the illusion that the murderer had murdered her in the secret room and then escaped."

Wu Xiang was stunned. He had thought about many mechanisms and clever ideas, but no matter what, he did not expect Bo Ruoyou to have such a simple inference, "This... she was seriously injured at that time, could she still come to close the door..."

Bo Ruoyou said: "She did not die suddenly when she touched the pillar. The autopsy and blood on the bed were available. She was seriously injured and then died of excessive blood loss. After the murderer committed the murder that day, he saw that she was bleeding profusely, most of them were afraid and wanted to leave the house immediately. After he left, Liu Yao woke up and then she closed the door."

"The blood behind the door panel is the best proof. We have never figured out before how there will be blood behind the door panel. If the murderer is left behind, most people will hold the handle behind the door when they open and close the door, and will not touch the door panel. The captain should remember that the blood behind the door is on my shoulder. I guess it was after Liu Yao closed the door and was dizzy and weak, and when his body leaned against the door panel, he rubbed the blood on his body on it."

Wu Xiangben also found this inference incredible, but when Bo Ruoyou said this, he felt it was reasonable. The theory of secret rooms was indeed preconceived. In addition to his previous experience in handling cases, his first reaction was that the murderer deliberately arranged it into a secret room, so that the deceased committed suicide. However, the nuns also said that many items fell on the floor in the room, and it seemed that they had a dispute. If the murderer wanted to mislead them, how could he not clean up the scene when setting up the secret room?

"What you said makes sense, is that we thought about this matter too complicatedly before."

Bo Ruoyou said again: "In addition, there may be two reasons for Liu Yao closing the door. First, she was afraid that the murderer would return, and second, she wanted to stop the murderer from coming back to take away the physical evidence he left behind."

"Physical evidence?" Wu Xiang frowned.

"Does the captain still remember that there are many booklets on Liu Yao's desk?"

"Of course I remember, but we have read those books, but there is nothing abnormal."

Bo Ruoyou shook her head, "The story on the story is indeed ordinary, and there is no evidence of just a few words. But the abnormality is that the storybooks were sold on the market. There are many words on her desk, and they look quite new on the surface. But today I accidentally learned that one of the stories was sold half a month ago."

As soon as this statement was made, Wu Xiang immediately understood, "The book that started selling just half a month ago appeared in the temple, which means that someone bought it and sent it to her when it was sold!"

He quickly recalled, "According to the confessions of everyone before, no one in the Liu family mentioned that they went to see Liu Yao half a month ago, and the nuns said that there was no one in the temple on the fifth and sixth day of the day, so the murderer must have been to the temple in those two days!"

Bo Ruoyou nodded, "Yes, someone in the Liu family is lying. Now you only need to find out who bought the storybook and who concealed the fact that he went to the temple to find out the murderer!"

Wu Xiang grabbed the sword beside him, raised his thick eyebrows and his eyes were shiny. The dullness and decay that had been a moment ago was wiped out, and he wished he could step into Liu's mansion and get someone, "Which story book is it?"

"The name is "The Legend of the Chaichair". I have seen it several times in Liu Yao's boxing, and the Liu family will definitely find it now."

After Bo Ruoyou finished answering, Wu Xiang immediately ordered the yamen to prepare the frame and asked her again, "Do you want to go with her?"

Bo Ruoyou nodded immediately. At this time, she looked back at Huo Qinghong as if she remembered something, but saw Huo Qinghong also staring at her with bright eyes. Seeing her looking over, she immediately said, "Then I want to go too."

Bo Ruoyou frowned, "What are you going to do with the prince? It's hard for the prince to go with him."

Huo Qinghong was a little dissatisfied at first, but when he met Bo Ruoyou's gaze, he said as if he was angry: "Then what if I'm waiting outside?"

Bo Ruoyou was a little helpless and looked at Wu Xiang. Wu Xiang hurriedly said, "If you don't enter the mansion, the Liu family will not feel anything. If the prince is willing to follow me, please follow me."

Bo Ruoyou sighed and looked at Huo Qinghong up and down. He didn't see what Huo Qinghong was thinking for a while. Soon, the carriages and horses were ready. The group went to the Liu family. On the way, Wu Xiang carefully calculated and remembered the confession of the fourth son of the Liu family, "Do you still remember that the fourth son of the Liu family said that on the sixth day of the lunar month he had gone out of the city to burn incense, and was carried in due to illness on the way back."

Bo Ruoyou naturally remembered that Wu Xiang said again: "It was just that day that he interrogated the two servants who followed him. The two servants also said that there was a coachman testifying. Our people also went to Xiangguo Temple to investigate. The monk in the temple still remembered him, saying that he had arrived at the temple at noon and stayed in the temple for two hours. According to the journey, it was dark when he returned to Beijing. Later, I felt a little uncomfortable on the way. When I arrived at the door of my house, I asked someone to carry a sedan chair out and carry him in."

Bo Ruoyou thought about the location of Xiangguo Temple, "Two hours are enough to go back and forth from Xiangguo Temple to Shuiyue Temple..."

Wu Xiang said: "This has also asked the monks in the temple. He wanted to have a vegetarian meal in the temple. The monk who sent the vegetarian meal saw him kneeling in front of the Bodhisattva statue and recite scriptures."

Bo Ruoyou thought, "The testimony of monks and the testimony of servants will be somewhat unbelievable."

Wu Xiang nodded in agreement. When the carriage arrived at Liu's mansion, Bo Ruoyou ordered Huo Qinghong to wait on the carriage, and then followed Wu Xiang into the gate of the Marquis' mansion. Huo Qinghong lay on the window and looked at the door of the Liu's mansion, and was stunned for a moment, not knowing what he was thinking.

Liu Yan came to pick him up again in the Liu Mansion. When he heard that Wu Xiang was going to Liu Yao's house, Liu Yan immediately said: "Fortunately, you are here today. If you are one day later, we will take away the relics of the seventh sister."

Liu Yan led the way, and several people arrived at this remote courtyard again and opened the door. Bo Ruoyou saw the box cage in the house that was not moved. Although the box cage had not moved, she saw that the items stacked in the box had changed at first sight.

She stepped forward quickly, "Has anyone been here in the past two days?"

Liu Yan was slightly surprised, "No, the keys are now in the hands of the manager. I want to tell me the door to open. I didn't listen to anyone entering the house."

Bo Ruoyou went to search while listening to him. Last time she stayed in the house and read the book and the words she had written for a long time. She knew exactly which book was placed where the book was placed. However, when she searched through the entire box and even searched for the book case in the house, the book "The Book of Searching for Hair" was really gone. Seeing her expression, Wu Xiang stepped forward and asked, "What's wrong? I can't find it."

Bo Ruoyou nodded, "I disappeared, but I only disappeared in the book "The Book of the Hairpin Search".

Wu Xiang looked at Liu Yan with deep eyes. Liu Yan felt strange when he heard this, and immediately ordered the servant to call the manager. Soon, the manager of the Liu family came quickly, and Liu Yan shook the key in his hand, "Where have the keys placed in these days? Did someone go to ask you for the key?"

When the manager heard this, he immediately said, "The second young master came last night to ask for the key."

"What? Second brother came to ask for the key?" Liu Yan was very surprised.

The manager nodded and said in a panic: "The second young master said he wanted to come and see the relics of Miss Seventh."
