When Han Min heard that she was Qin Wenyuan's first, her eyes immediately lit up.

He chuckled and said, "I am so honored, my official."

Qin Wenyuan said: "You feel honored? But I don't think this is a good thing. After all, if you are the first to find me, there will definitely be troublesome things to do."

"Aren't you the most afraid of trouble? Now you still think it's an honor?"

Han Min patted his heart and said, "I'm afraid of my own troubles, but I'm never afraid of Lord Qin's troubles. As long as I'm with Lord Qin, no matter how troublesome things are, they can be solved!"

Qin Wenyuan smiled, put down his teacup, and said, "Have you guessed the reason why I came back secretly?"

Han Min blinked, sat opposite Qin Wenyuan, and said, "But for Mr. Bai?"

Qin Wenyuan nodded.

He didn't hide anything and went straight to the point: "Normally, when a case occurs in Chang'an City, you Jing Zhaoyin will be the first to take action. Later, due to the circumstances of the case, it will be handed over to the Ministry of Punishment or Dali Temple."

"This case is the same, right?"

Han Min nodded: "Yes, when I heard something happened to an official, I was the first to arrive."

Qin Wenyuan directly expressed his intention: "Tell me about the situation at the scene when you arrived."

Han Min did not answer Qin Wenyuan immediately, but after thinking carefully for a moment, he looked at Qin Wenyuan and spoke.

"In the evening, I heard that someone came to Jingzhao Yin Yamen to report that their master had been killed. I asked who their master was, and then I found out that something happened to Zhou Qin, the Minister of Rites."

"Because the accident happened to an official of the imperial court and the impact was very great, the official did not hesitate and immediately took people to Zhou Qin's residence."

"When the official arrived at Zhou Qin's residence, it was around three quarters of You hour."

Qin Wenyuan nodded slightly.

It's three quarters of the hour, which is around 5:45 pm.

He said nothing and continued to listen to Han Min's words.

Han Min continued: "After entering Zhou Qin's mansion, the official was led by his servants to the main hall."

"And there are two people lying in the main hall."

"One of them was Zhou Qin. Zhou Qin was lying on his back with a dagger stuck in his heart. He was bleeding a lot. His clothes were covered with dust and there were signs of fighting."

"And not far away from him, near the door, is Mr. Bai lying on his stomach."

"Master Bai's clothes also have wrinkles, which are obvious signs of fighting. When the official arrived, Master Bai was unconscious."

"The lower official immediately asked the imperial physician to treat Mr. Bai."

"As for the lower official, he asked Wu Zuo to conduct an autopsy and at the same time ask the servants of the Zhou family."

Qin Wenyuan held the teacup and tapped his fingers lightly on the teacup.

He said: "What did the servant say?"

Han Min tried not to explain in his own words, but repeated the servant's original words.

He was worried that he had overlooked something important and might mislead Qin Wenyuan.

So he tried his best to use the original words. In this way, maybe Qin Wenyuan's cleverness could find out the problem.

Han Min said: "At that time, there was a man pruning flowers and plants in the garden near the main hall. He told me that during the process of pruning the flowers and plants, he did not find anyone entering or leaving the main hall through the main entrance."

"I also asked the concierge. The concierge said that no one from them has entered or exited the gate since Mr. Bai entered. This shows that during that period, absolutely no one outside the Zhou Mansion entered or left the Zhou Mansion."

"Later, I asked the housekeeper whether Zhou Qin had behaved strangely before meeting Mr. Xiao. The housekeeper did not find anything strange about Zhou Qin. He was exactly the same as before."

"From this, it can be determined that no outsiders were present when Zhou Qin met Master Bai, and Zhou Qin was in a very normal mood before meeting Master Zhou, so the conflict should have occurred suddenly between the two.

"

"In the end, the conflict led to a scuffle between the two."

"And then……"

Han Min did not continue.

But Qin Wenyuan understood that based on normal inference, Xiao Yu accidentally killed Zhou Qin unintentionally.

This is an accident.

But no matter how unexpected it is, killing is killing.

You have to take responsibility.

But...is this really the case?

Qin Wenyuan said: "Tell me about the situation at the crime scene."

Han Min said: "When we arrived, the housekeeper had already ordered no one to enter, so the first scene was not destroyed."

"As we entered, we found two stools tipped over to one side."

The table was knocked away two inches.

A decorated vase broke.

He fell not far from the deceased.

And there were some drops of blood between the vase and the deceased.

Other than that, there's nothing else.

The main hall in Zhou's mansion is relatively spacious and originally had little furniture.

…………

The scene of the crime appeared in Qin Wenyuan's mind.

He was like a man from the air, walking through the scene himself.

Then, he carefully observed every detail.

"Two questions!"

At this time, Qin Wenyuan suddenly said: "First, did the servant hear something? Suddenly he rushed over and found that something happened?"

Han Min nodded and said: "The housekeeper said that he heard the sound of a vase breaking and was worried that something had happened. He quickly went over to check and found that something had happened."

"So, it was the sound of the vase that attracted the butler, right?"

Han Min thought for a moment, then nodded and said: "Yes, that's it!"

Qin Wenyuan narrowed his eyes.

He added: "Second question."

He looked at Han Min and said, "Where did the murder weapon come from?"

"Where did the dagger that pierced Zhou Qin come from?"

"I don't think Mr. Xiao would carry a dagger with him when he goes to meet his colleagues. He doesn't have this habit."

"So, where did the murder weapon come from?"

Qin Wenyuan knew Xiao Yu very well.

Unlike Qin Wenyuan, Xiao Yu had offended many people and had many enemies, so he would carry weapons with him to defend himself.

Bai Yanguan is a flexible person. Although he has a bottom line that he insists on, he will never be too stubborn above the bottom line.

Because of this, no one has objected to whether Bai Yanguan became the minister of Dali Temple or the minister of the Ministry of Punishment.

Because they know that unless they really do something beyond the bottom line, Xiao Yu will not show any mercy.

Because of this, Bai Yanguan has almost no enemies.

There is no need to defend yourself.

So, where did the dagger that killed Zhou Qin come from?

Jingzhao Yin Hanmin, as the first official to come into contact with this case, naturally also checked the murder weapon.
