Chapter 145 The End

He forced himself to calm down, and then under the influence of nervous nerves, he methodically and carefully processed the scene of the incident.

He took a sack from home when no one was around, packed it, tied it up, and dumped the body in one go.

"The Chen and Gu families were married, and their lives and deaths were closely linked. Mr. Chen did not recognize the perpetrator, and his father bribed the court, and the officials protected each other to avoid disaster."

"On the fifteenth day of the winter lunar month in the seventh year of the Eastern Yuan Dynasty, Chen Nan brutally killed his lover Wu Xiulian in Xiaohe in order to marry Gu Yuan and vowed to take the exam next year. Wu Xiulian was greedy for vanity and had a watery nature. It is intolerable to the laws of heaven!

I have pity on that crazy horse, I sacrificed my baby to heaven! I sacrificed to heaven!"

"Absurd!" Chen Shixi was shaking with anger, slapped the armrest of the wooden chair, and stood up abruptly.

The noisy music suddenly stopped, and the movements of the artists behind the scenes also stopped.

The excited crowd in the audience also became silent at this moment, and the lively atmosphere cooled down instantly.

This loud shout successfully diverted everyone's attention to the shed. Looking at the people whispering and whispering to each other, Chen Shixi felt guilty and deeply angry at the same time.

But because of his physical weakness, and even more because he was unable to get rid of his anger, Chen Shixi's mind felt like it was spinning, and his eyesight turned black and he almost fell down.

Upon seeing this, Duofu quickly stepped forward to support him: "Master!"

Chen Shixi ignored Duofu's concern and rebuked loudly: "Who wrote the script? Dare to wantonly spread rumors about my reputation? Do you know what punishment you will face? Who is it? Stand up for me!"

Artists looked at me and I looked at you, not knowing how to answer Chen Shixi's words, because this script was not written by them at all, but...

"Mr. Chen, please be patient and don't be impatient."

A cool female voice came from behind, and Chen Shixi's pupils suddenly shrank.

He turned around and looked at Xu Ruqing, the hostility in his eyes was particularly obvious: "It's you, Miss Xu, no, you should be called Princess Wei."

"The title Princess Wei is just a dispensable title. Mr. Chen, there is no need to be polite."

"Oh, you said you invited me to watch the show just to watch this? Tell me, what is the real purpose of asking me to come?"

Xu Ruqing sneered, but the smile did not reach her eyes: "I am a member of the female class. I am not familiar with the Thirty-six Strategies, and I have never read Sun Tzu's Art of War. How can I understand those twists and turns? Watching a play is just watching a play, and the purpose is not the same.

It seems that I have many tricks up my sleeve."

Crafty? Fortunately, this woman is somewhat self-aware and knows how to describe herself as crafty.

This word is an understatement, I should say she is sinister and cunning!

"Princess Wei is very eloquent, which makes me admire her with admiration. However, it seems to me that today's drama is not very good. It is really boring. I forgive you for not being able to accompany me, so I take my leave."

Chen Shixi gave Duofu a look, and Duofu understood and helped him walk out of the shed.

But before they even took half a step out of the shed, Xuan Ye pulled out his sword and stood in front of the two of them. There was murderous intent in his eyes, which seemed to say, 'If you dare to take a step forward again, you will die!'

Duofu helped Chen Shixi and couldn't help but take two steps back.

"What do you mean?" Chen Shixi looked at Xu Ruqing warily.

Xu Ruqing looked at him leisurely, the two of them were like a playful cat and a mouse that is afraid of light. "We are leaving now? The play is not over yet. Isn't Mr. Chen curious about what the ending will be?"

"Oh, it's just the conjecture of the dramatist. How can there be a reasonable ending if there is no logic? The key to solving a case is to rely on actual evidence, not imagination. Princess Wei, who is at a high level, should understand this truth better than the people below."

Xu Ruqing nodded in agreement: "Mr. Chen's words make sense."

"Xuan Ye."

"My subordinate is here."

"Master Chen wants evidence, bring it up to him."

"yes."

After a while, two officials from the government carried the body up.

The body was covered with a white cloth, and Xu Ruqing lifted a corner of the head for easy inspection, revealing a blackened face with slight decay.

Chen Shixi was horrified when he saw it, and his stomach couldn't stop churning: "Is this?"

"Have you forgotten Mr. Chen? This is the mother of your child, Wu Xiulian."

"!!!"

"Look at her, she refuses to close her eyes even if she dies. This shows how much she hates her."

When Chen Shixi saw Wu Xiulian's appearance, he was lying when he said he wasn't afraid. When Xu Ruqing said this again, the two of them became trembling.

He forced himself to calm down: "Stop talking nonsense, didn't you say you wanted to show me the evidence? Where is the evidence?!"

Xu Ruqing took out Wu Xiulian's hand unhurriedly and said, "Did you see the blood in her nails? They were left by scratching when she resisted your violence. Judging from the wear and tear of the nails, it can be seen that Wu Xiulian was under the

With enough strength, the injured person's wound will definitely be deep and will not heal as before within seven days."

"If you really didn't do anything to her, how do you explain the scar on your right hand?"

Hearing this, Chen Shixi subconsciously covered his right hand.

Yes, he almost forgot that this injury was left on him by Wu Xiulian that day. How could he be so careless and forget about this injury?

"This doesn't prove anything. The injury on my hand was accidentally scratched by a knife. It was not injured by Wu Xiulian at all. It was a complete coincidence."

Xu Ruqing just smiled indifferently after hearing this.

Dude, I already guessed that you would say this.

"Okay, just assume that what you said is true and that it was just a coincidence."

"Xuan Ye."

Xuan Ye understood and went down to bring up the people he had called in advance.

"A common woman comes to see the princess."

"No gift."

Chen Shixi looked at the woman in front of him and didn't recognize her: "Who is she? I have never seen this person before."

"She is a well-known sitting lady in eight villages in ten miles and eighty miles. She is a person who specializes in the affairs of men and women. It is not surprising that Mr. Chen does not know her."

Xu Ruqing knelt down again and lifted up the white cloth, revealing the corpse's pale thighs. There were purple-black corpse spots at the thighs. In addition, there were some less obvious bruises.

"We examined the deceased's lower body and found a small amount of bodily fluids that did not belong to her. We initially determined that she had had close contact with the opposite sex within half an hour before her death."

"I remember that when I asked you the second question yesterday, you said that you and Wu Xiulian have not seen each other for half a month. If this is true, let Si Po do a test for you two. After the test, we will know whether it is true or false."

Chen Shixi was stunned. He never expected that a woman like Xu Ruqing could have such ability and completely understand all his motives.

He was so heartbroken, it seemed like he couldn't escape today.

Xu Ruqing said to the boy standing behind Zuo Po: "What are you doing standing still? Why don't you ask Mr. Chen to go down and take a physical exam?"

"No need!"
