The Crown Prince is Actually a Princess!

Chapter 166: : The case repeats itself

With that said, Murongci and Shen Zhiyan came to the door of Li's house, but saw that the door was hidden and the seal was lifted.

They looked at each other and someone went in!

Shen Zhiyan gently pushed the door open and looked inside warily.

Murongci walked in while gesturing, and saw a woman sneaking around in the room in the atrium.

The woman turned her back to them, and the light in the room was not clear, and they could not see her face clearly.

They were about to take a look from the window sill, but they saw the woman coming out--

"what……"

The woman was so frightened that she screamed, her body shook, and she instinctively backed away.

Shen Zhiyan and Murongci were shocked by her screams, she looked at the sky speechlessly, "What's your name?"

It turned out that this woman was Princess Murong Shi, the head of Duanrou County. Seeing the person clearly, she came out with a pat on her chest, and said with lingering fear: "His Royal Highness, Lord Shen, why are you? I was scared to death by you."

Murongci rolled his eyes, "My palace was scared to death by you. What is your okay name?"

"This is a murderous house. You suddenly came out without a sound. I came out and saw people suddenly. Of course, I was shocked."

"What does the princess do here? Are you alone?" Shen Zhiyan asked with a frown.

"Of course I'm afraid, but I want to help you solve the case. Thinking about this, I boldly came in." Murong Shi smiled cheerfully, "Your Highness, are you also looking for clues?"

"You didn't destroy the environment at the scene." His handsome face turned into bitter gourd-like.

"No no, I'll take a look." She waved her hand again and again.

"Really?" Murong Ci asked coldly.

"His Royal Highness, really not." Murong Shi shook his head firmly.

"Then what did you find?"

"I only came here for a while and didn't find..." Murong Shi lowered his head and muttered with a guilty conscience, the more he spoke, the lower his voice.

"The murder scene is hostile and the murderer may come. The princess is too risky to come here alone, so the princess should go back." Shen Zhiyan persuaded with all his heart.

"Aren't you and Your Highness here? I'm not in danger anymore, I won't go." She pressed her lips firmly, and her small face was full of "Never yield."

"The scene of the murder is too dangerous, it's not where you should be, go back!" Murong was stern, very unhappy, "My palace is here to handle the case, not to play. You are here, it will only hinder us."

"I'm not here to play either... How could I hinder you, I can help you..." Murong Shi mumbled softly, not listening clearly.

"Princess, you don't know anything about investigating the case. You may have already destroyed the scene when you came. Some clues have been destroyed by you, so we can't investigate." He persuaded him earnestly, "Princess, you still Let's go back."

"I was very careful, I didn't touch anything, let alone damage..."

"You can't tell which clues are important and which are not important. How do you know that there is no damage?"

"His Royal Highness, it's just this time, let's not take it as an example, okay?" Murong Shi begged with tears, his facial features all wrinkled together.

"This time I want you to follow, but you are not allowed to go and bump, you have to listen to my house obediently, you know?" Murongci reluctantly compromised.

Murong Shi was excited and surprised, clapping and cheering: "Great!"

Shen Zhiyan was quite speechless, "The princess, at the scene of the murder, you can't be so bluffing."

She calmed down immediately and acted obediently, "Oh."

Murong Ci gave him a wink and asked him to look at her a little bit, then walked inside and began to survey.

They focused on the inspection of the master of Li's bedroom. In Miss Li's bedroom, Murongci suddenly had an inspiration, and said, "I know, let's play it."

"Deduction? What do you mean?" Shen Zhiyan asked in confusion.

"That's what we imagined and speculated about when Miss Li was killed."

"That's a good idea. Let's start now."

"Great! I want to speculate together." Murong Shi said excitedly.

"You stand aside and don't move. If necessary, the palace will let you help." Murong resigned.

"Oh." Murong Shi pursed her lips in disappointment.

Shen Zhiyan pointed to the place where there was a pool of dark red dried blood four feet in front of the bed, "Miss Li was lying on her side, lying on her side."

Murong nodded, "After four shifts that night, she should have heard the sound in her sleep and felt unusual, so she got up to see if a thief had broken in." She walked to the side of Miss Li's corpse. "The bedroom is very dark and there are no lights. She can't see clearly and feels more frightened. She slowly walked here and looked around... Suddenly, she saw a black shadow appearing in front of her, frightened and screamed instinctively... …"

He continued: "Perhaps she didn't have time to scream, and the murderer pierced her heart with a sword."

She nodded approvingly, "She was killed by the murderer before she could see what the murderer looked like. Next, we will play it again."

Murong Shi listened to their restoration on the night of the crime, and was at the scene of the murder again. He saw such a large pool of dark red blood. After thinking about it, his scalp numb, and he swallowed hard.

But seeing Murong resigned from the bed and walked in small steps, watching the dark bedroom with fear and alertness, acting vividly, as if he was really in the dead of night, and his heart trembled.

Suddenly, the murderer appeared.

Shen Zhiyan appeared ghostly holding a long sword, like a ghost of hell.

She was shocked all over, so scared that she was so scared, her eyes widened, she was about to shout, the long sword had been pierced and passed through her chest.

Raise the sword in his hand, swift and fierce, without hesitation.

After that, he pulled it out abruptly.

She stared wide-eyed and watched the murderer slowly fall, as if a beautifully blooming delicate flower was broken by the ground of life and left in a pool of blood.

The blood gushed out like spring water, dyed her moon-white bedclothes red, and ran all over the place...

At the last moment before Qi Jue died, she saw a pair of black boots leave silently.

Bang bang bang!

Murong Shi clapped his hands and exclaimed, "It's great! Your Majesty, you played so well! Just like a real murder case."

Murongci stood up and patted the dust on his body, "Zhiyan, do you think something is wrong?"

Shen Zhiyan shook his head and touched his chin, thinking: "The murderer must act very quickly, as fast as an electric shock, in order to kill the dead before the dead screams."

She agreed, "That fat lady only heard a scream, which means that only one of the forty members of the Li family can scream. Can you do it with your martial arts?"

"Ashamed, I can't do it."

"Try it in this palace."

They changed their identities and she played the role of the murderer. When Shen Zhiyan saw her, she immediately took action.

Fast as a shock, as fast as a ghost.

When the tip of the sword hit his chest, he shouted.

Murong Shi guessed: "The murderer's martial arts is very strong. Could it be to buy the murder to kill everyone in the Li family?"

Murong Ci's eyes were dark. If the murderer has high martial arts, and if he is buying a murderer, it will be more difficult to solve the case.

After that, they inspected the Li's house and found no traces of the murderer.

After coming out of Li's house, she gave Shen Zhiyan a wink. He understood, and said to Murong Poetry: "Princess, you go back first, and your Highness and I will go elsewhere."

Just after seeing their interpretation of the murder case at the crime scene, Murong Shi became more and more interested in solving the case, and said coquettishly: "I want to go too."

"The princess just said it, not as an example. Did you forget?"

"but……"

"There are still important things to do in the palace, but it has nothing to do with the massacre of the Li family." Murong Ci was very unhappy.

Seeing that His Highness was angry, Murong Shi had to leave reluctantly.

They made sure that she didn't follow her secretly and went to Gao's house.

I asked those aunts about the addresses of the Gao's and Wang's houses before, and they decided to go to the nearby Gao's first.

The Gao family's mansion was similar to that of the Li family. The butler learned that they were officials of Dali Temple and quickly invited them in.

Mrs. Gao is not here, only Mrs. Gao is there. She received them in the lobby. She was polite, kind and well-educated. "The two adults came for the Li family tragedy? The Zhu family was so miserable that they were wiped out overnight... Well, how could this happen? It's too tragic."

As she said, she sighed sadly, her eyes turned red immediately, and a stream of tears rolled in her eyes.

It can be seen that her feelings of sadness and grief are real, and it is a far cry from Madam Zhu's hypocrisy.

"Ms. Gao's sorrow, when was the last time you saw Mrs. Li?" Murong Ci asked lightly.

"I think about it... it should be half a month ago." Madam Gao wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes with a silk paw and said sadly, "The Mid-Autumn Festival is coming soon. Sister Zhu is about to make new clothes for her children, and she met me on the street. We went to the silk and satin shop to see silk and satin together, and then went to cut new clothes. After that, I never saw it again. But a few days ago, the dog went to Li's house and gave him the Mid-Autumn Festival."

"I heard that you and Madam Li are sisters, and Madam Li wants to betroth the eldest daughter to Linglang."

"Yes. Although I and Sister Zhu are not sisters, the sisterhood relationship for decades is even closer than that of relatives. Sister Zhu's eldest daughter is knowledgeable and well-rounded. I like it very much and always want her to be our Gao family. His daughter-in-law. It’s just that Master Li doesn’t approve, and the marriage hasn’t been settled.”

"Ms. Li was suffering from this misfortune, presumably Ling Lang was very sad." Shen Zhiyan suddenly said.

"That's natural. Inuzi really likes Miss Li. On the Mid-Autumn Festival, I learned of the misfortune of Li's family. Our family was very sad and didn't eat much dinner. Inuzi locked himself in the room without eating or drinking. If you don't sleep, anyone knocks on the door and doesn't open it, and no one tries to persuade him. He didn't open the door until today and lost a lot of weight." Madam Gao sullenly wiped her tears and sniffed.

He and Murongci looked at each other, and the same question circulated in his mind: Since the tall man likes Miss Li so much, why not go to Dali Temple to see her for the last time? Why didn't Mrs. Gao go to Dali Temple to meet her boudoir sisters?

She asked again: "Is Linglang in the mansion?"

Mrs. Gao replied: "He had some food, and I let him go out to relax. I'm worried that he won't want to do stupid things..."
