The first update is here!!! The second update is around 7 pm!!!

————————————————

The murder of Concubine Li has been around for more than a month, but there are still no clear signs of being solved. It has to be said that the case does seem to be full of fog. Although Zhengyao has searched and investigated and reasoned, a series of normal cases have been handled.

After the procedure, he also gained some in-depth understanding and understanding of this case, but Zhengyao could only identify the initial suspect Chen Fei and Lan Fei. As for who they were, it is still unknown.

The reason why Zhengyao fixed the two as the targets of suspicion is actually very simple. Concubine Chen and Concubine Lan both have motives for murder, and at the same time, they also pointed out that the other party was suspicious, which makes people feel that something is strange.

After asking about some things found on the surface and Zhengyao, it seems that Concubine Lan is more suspicious.

Of course, what Zhengyao said just now was problematic in Lan Fei’s right hand, which further confirmed her suspiciousness.

Ning An seemed to have guessed something, but she still couldn't fully understand what Zhengyao meant, so she asked: "You just said that there were problems with Concubine Lan's right back and index finger on her right hand. So this is because of Concubine Li's case.

What is the connection?”

Not only did Ning An not figure it out, but Xiaoxi and others couldn't figure it out. Even Mo Maochao, who seemed to have a tacit understanding with Zhengyao, said that the fragrance of rouge box was the fragrance of orchids, was also confused at this moment.

Zhengyao’s favorite thing is to keep a secret, which is self-evident for everyone. So after asking, everyone focused their attention on Zhengyao again, trying to know what was going on.

Zhengyao immediately became serious. Then he took out something from his left sleeve, then looked at Ning An and said, "What do you think this is?"

At this time, Zhengyao took out a black ring from his sleeve, which was as if burned by fire. The ring size was just the size of a normal little finger, and goodbye to the place that was not burned, it can be clearly

Seeing that this ring is dark green, it looks like a piece of jade.

If you guess correctly, this should be a ring worn on your hand. The ring is usually made of small rings made of metal or gems, which are approximately on your fingers and are used as an ornament or token. Now it is called a ring.

The ring, an object that is regarded as an ornament today, is different from the ancient definition. Especially in the palace, most of the ornaments of concubines and palace maids wearing rings were actually forbidden. At that time, the emperor's three palaces were the three palaces.

Six courtyards, seventy-two concubines. The one who was favored by the emperor in the harem. The eunuch recorded the period when she accompanied the king and wore a silver ring on her right hand as a mark. When the concubine was pregnant, she told the eunuch, she would give it to her.

Wear a gold ring on your left hand to show your ring body.

However, after all, there are still a few people who wear it out of their appreciation or want to decorate themselves, so as to attract the attention of others and satisfy their private interests.

When Ning An saw this ring for the first time, he was stunned for a moment, and then said excitedly: "I seem to have seen this ring! It seems..."

As he spoke, Ning An seemed to have forgotten where he had seen it again. So his voice fell down again.

From the surface of the ring, it was pitch black and there was nothing obvious. The only thing was burned by fire. However, the texture of this ring was a little different. It was a good jadeite, and it was not burned by fire.

Burn and melt or deform. Of course, it can also be inferred from this that this thing must not be owned by ordinary people, and must be worn by wealthy and powerful people.

However, where did this ring come from? Who is it? It remains to be discussed.

Zhengyao said: "Actually, this ring was broken out from Xiao Tao's burnt hand when I was examining Xiao Tao's corpse. Judging from the strength of Xiao Tao's finger tightening, it should be after an argument with someone.

, picked it off and held it tightly in the palm of your hand. So the ring still had not been burned by the fire."

"What you mean is that when you were entangled with Xiaotao, the person wearing this ring accidentally lost the ring and didn't know that, but this person killed Xiaotao. Then he set fire to the house, but in the end, Xiaotao did not let it go.

Take out or throw away the ring. Therefore, the person wearing this ring is likely to be the murderer who killed Xiao Tao?" Ning An opened his eyes wide and looked at Zhengyao in confusion and said.

Obviously, Ning An’s guess is reliable. After all, only by explaining this way can Xiao Tao’s death make sense. Just imagine, if the person wearing this ring leaves, will Xiao Tao keep holding the ring in his hand? It’s obvious

No, even if I don’t give it to Concubine Chen, I wouldn’t just hold it in my hand if I hide it in private.

After Ning An's suspicion, Mo Maoqia Xiaoxi and others had a trace of eyebrows and their eyes were no longer as blurred as before.

"Well, so, the key to everything lies on this ring." As he said that, Zhengyao couldn't help but look at the dark jade ring in his hand again, and then said, "I just specially led Lan Fei to the flower bed to talk about orchid planting.

The method is not actually trying to teach her to plant flowers. It’s just that I always think it’s a bit weird that she hides her right hand.

"Later, she was led to the flower bed and deliberately said what kind of orchids should be planted. She touched the leaves and soil, but in fact she wanted her to stretch out her right hand. Sure enough, she finally mentioned orchids and put them all.

I forgot everything. So I found that there were three fine lines on the back of her right hand. Although it was very thin, her skin was too tender and smooth, so it could still be clearly visible. In addition, I also paid special attention to her index finger

, and found that there was indeed a very obvious ring mark on it. If you guessed correctly, the ring is probably from Concubine Lan!”

Zhengyao did not pause at all and said all his discoveries in one breath, and it sounded like this really happened.

First, Zhengyao was a persistent person. If the case was not solved, he would never do trivial matters that were not related to the case, especially when investigating the case; second, Zhengyao has always been unhappy with the people in the palace, even if

He was a concubine, a concubine, or even a princess like Ning'an, and he was very disdainful. He had no reason and talked to Concubine Lan for no reason about how to plant orchids. Third, Concubine Chen insisted on it.

It was Lan Fei who set fire. The so-called groundlessness may not be without cause. Naturally, Zhengyao also suspected Lan Fei, and it happened that Lan Fei was hiding his right hand, which made Zhengyao even more suspicious.

"According to what you say, there must be something wrong with Concubine Lan. Even if Concubine Li’s case has nothing to do with her, Xiao Tao’s death must also be related to her! Let’s go and argue with her!"

Impulse will always be Ning An's representative. After she finished speaking, she immediately prepared to turn around and go back to settle the score with Concubine Lan.

Zhengyao caught Ning An again, shook his head and said helplessly: "Why are you always so impulsive? What's the use of going to find her now? Let's not tell whether it can prove that she and Concubine Li

The case is related to the fire in the palace of Chenfei and the murder of Xiaotao may not necessarily be related to her. Don’t forget that we just found a ring and did not prove that this ring belongs to Lanfei.

What if it is really a coincidence? What if Concubine Lan insists that the back of her hand was scratched by someone else or Concubine Chen? You know, she had an argument with Concubine Chen before, and she was stolen while

It’s not surprising to catch a few scratches!”

Although Ning An often has her own opinions, her own unique opinions, and has done a lot of things, the only thing is that she is more impulsive and easier to act emotionally. In fact, this is for solving cases and even handling other relationships.

Nothing related is a good thing.

Perhaps this is Ning An's original origin. It is precisely because of this that Zhengyao felt that at some point this unruly princess also had a cute side, at least she was genuine and not fake.

Ning An looked at Zhengyao with dissatisfaction, and then said with resentment: "You said that Concubine Lan has a problem, and then you found so many excuses for her and said so much. If there may be no problem, then what are you doing

What you think? Is there any problem with Concubine Lan? How should I deal with this matter?"

After Zhengyao said this, Ning An would collapse. It is indeed the case. Zhengyao's words seem to be contradictory. However, if you look carefully, it is not difficult to see that this is actually Zhengyao's cautious work.

Show that you can tell everything that you may foresee or that others cannot foresee but you foresee, so that you can think of a perfect solution to deal with it.

Otherwise, if you come forward and argue rashly like Ning An, it will not only not help solve the case, but will also backfire and alert the enemy, which will not be worth the loss.

Zhengyao calmed down and said, "The only thing you can do now is to see if there are any clues on King Jing. You can also check it privately in the palace, but remember not to extend it, and you must ensure that you do not alert the enemy. Mingri,

Mingri I think I can have a solution!"

It was almost noon now, and the warm sunshine shone on the ground was so comfortable. Through the layers of white clouds, you saw not the sun, but it seemed like a hope guiding the direction.

Ning An was also helpless, and perhaps realized that he was indeed impulsive, so he said lightly and stopped talking.

"Princess, it's almost noon. The emperor probably is waiting for you and the prince to have dinner at this time. Please ask the princess to go immediately, otherwise the emperor will be angry, which will be difficult." Feng Bao saw that everyone was almost talking to him.

, so he immediately came to Ning'an and said.

Ning An nodded, then looked at Zhengyao and said softly: "Since it's lunch time, it's better to leave after lunch first. I believe my father won't say anything."

As soon as this move was made Feng Bao, who was standing aside, wondering, thinking that Lord Li was indeed amazing, the princess actually invited him to have lunch so tenderly. It was really incredible.

However, Zhengyao was not grateful and just said, "No, I decided to go to a place first and then go to find King Jing after finishing. As for lunch, I will talk about it later!"

After saying that, Zhengyao gently patted Ning An's shoulder, then touched the tip of his nose, shrugged, and headed towards the direction of leaving the palace.

This scene really made Feng Bao amazed Zhengyao again, and even refused to share lunch with the emperor. I really couldn't figure out what it was for.
