Chapter 696 Do You Know What the Name of Eunuch Xiang Is?

No wonder the people from the Ministry of Internal Affairs couldn't find any external injuries on the body. They were hidden in the thick hair. If they hadn't carefully peeled them apart, who would have been able to see them?

Besides, this wound is perfect.

It stands to reason that if a normal person is killed by a sharp instrument inserted into the head, a large amount of blood should flow out.

Not to mention anything else, at least after a night of precipitation, blood clots will solidify on the hair. As long as someone from the Ministry of Internal Affairs reaches out and touches it, it is not difficult to find the wound.

But the body was disposed of very cleanly.

Just now, Liu Wei shaved Princess Qinyang's hair so short that she couldn't see clearly. She had to shave off all her hair to reveal the hideous wound.

Liu Wei therefore came to his own conclusion.

Looking back and still stunned at the moment, Liu Wei looked at the incredible little eunuchs and continued: "We found the wound. Now, let's talk about the murderer."

Several pairs of eyes looked at Liu Wei. Even Xiao Qizi, who had a strong opinion of Liu Wei just now, remained silent now, looking curious.

Liu Wei's tone was calm, but his words were shocking: "The murderer is a close relative of the princess."

As soon as he finished speaking, the surrounding area suddenly became quiet.

Liu Wei pointed to the wound and expressed her observation: "The princess's hair was very clean. After she died from the injury, someone specially washed the princess's hair to wash away the blood that would get stuck on her hair. And those who can do this , there are only people close to the princess. If they are outsiders, they can sneak in and kill people, but if they have to make such a big move in the dormitory and clean a dead person, they will inevitably be discovered. And the other party can do all this with such peace of mind. , firstly, that person is from the palace, and secondly, that person is very sure that no one will disturb you near the bedroom at night."

This guess was logical. Eunuch Hang suddenly realized it and immediately ordered people to find all the eunuchs and maids in Princess Qinyang's palace.

But Liu Wei stopped Eunuch Hang: "Calling people here now will undoubtedly alert the snake. Since the murderer can commit such a bold crime and carefully handle all the evidence after committing the crime, then even if we arrest everyone around the princess, It is still difficult to determine who is the murderer."

"That's not easy, just kill them all!" Eunuch Hang is the eunuch of the Ministry of Internal Affairs. He has executed countless palace people at his hands. Now he is involved in a murder case of a princess. As long as the case can be solved, let alone He doesn't think there is anything wrong with killing some suspects who are already suspected, even if he kills everyone who is possible.

Liu Wei glanced at Eunuch Hang, and after listening to what he said, she thought, if people are so careless about human life, most of the people who become eunuchs are perverts.

"I have a way to find the murderer." Liu Wei stopped him before Eunuch Hang was about to bloodbath the harem.

As expected, Eunuch Hang stopped moving and looked at Liu Wei expectantly.

Liu Wei said: "Let others go out first."

When Liu Wei talked about the others, she looked at Eunuch Xiang, then turned and looked at Xiao Qizi again.

Eunuch Hang knew it, but neither Xiao Qizi nor Eunuch Xiang was someone whom Eunuch Hang could command, so he was a little embarrassed for a while.

After all, Eunuch Xiang was quite easy-going. After hearing the expulsion order, he smiled and said to Liu Wei, "The Za family also hopes that Mr. Liu can give a reasonable answer to the concubine."

Liu Weipi twitched the corners of his mouth with a smile but said nothing.

Xiao Qizi was not embarrassed. After all, Master Liu had really found the wound on the princess's body. This dispelled the theory of "a resentful ghost seeking life" that was widely circulated in the harem, and it would allow him to give some explanation to his master.

After everyone left, the door of the ice room was closed tightly.

Inside, there were only Eunuch Hang and Liu Wei.

The two stayed inside for another quarter of an hour, and finally went out together when Eunuch Hang was shivering from the cold.

After going out, Eunuch Hang bowed respectfully to Liu Wei. His attitude was much better than before: "The Za family will go now."

With that said, Eunuch Hang said to a young eunuch waiting outside: "Take Mr. Liu to Suixiang Palace to have a look. Remember, don't make any noise."

Because of the death of Princess Qinyang, the names of those who originally served in Qinyang Palace were naturally placed on the desk of the House of Internal Affairs, waiting to be assigned to serve in other palaces again.

But now, Princess Qinyang's original palace, Suixiang Palace, has become a deserted palace.

The little eunuch took Liu Wei there, but when he was about to arrive, Liu Wei saw someone moving things in front of Suixiang Palace at the corner of the red brick corridor.

Liu Wei was stunned for a moment, and frowned tightly when she looked at the eunuch who stood tall, with a feminine face and a familiar figure standing under the plaque at the palace gate.

The other party obviously also saw Liu Wei.

The man turned around and nodded in the direction of Liu Wei, with a smile on his face: "Master Liu, what a coincidence."

Liu Wei pursed her lips for a long time before spitting out: "Xiang Gonggong."

Eunuch Xiang asked in a gentle manner: "Have you finished the secret talk with Eunuch Hang? Have you made any regulations on the identity of the murderer?"

Liu Wei glanced at her father-in-law and said with a smile: "Originally, there was, but now..."

Liu Wei pointed at the scene in front of her and asked, "Father-in-law, what are you doing?"

Xiang Gonggong said: "According to the orders of the Dowager Empress, I came here to bring back some of the princess's personal belongings from Suixiang Palace, lest the palace people come and go, some unsighted fish in troubled waters, and desecrate the princess."

Liu Wei lowered her clear eyes: "My father-in-law, you know that Suixiang Palace is the scene of the first crime. I haven't collected evidence yet. My father-in-law's move has destroyed the scene."

Eunuch Xiang was stunned and asked, "Sir, are you saying that the Za family shouldn't touch these things?"

Liu Wei took a deep breath: "Yes!"

"But now that we have moved, what should we do? Besides, this is the order of the concubine, and the Za family would not dare to disobey it."

Liu Wei frowned even more tightly. Looking at Eunuch Xiang, she had to wonder if this man did it on purpose. He had already said that he could not move here, but he had no intention of repenting. He even said it back with confidence. This move was as if he knew there was some evidence and went ahead to destroy it.

"So, father-in-law is going to continue to destroy the scene?"

She showed her embarrassment to the father-in-law, and finally said: "It is really the concubine who has her destiny!"

"Okay." Liu Wei took a deep look at this person, turned around and left without saying anything.

Liu Wei left so happily that Eunuch Xiang was stunned for a moment.

Liu Wei didn't look back as soon as he left. After passing the corner, Liu Wei asked the young eunuch of the Ministry of Internal Affairs next to him: "Do you know what the name of Eunuch Xiang is?"

The young eunuch said: "My lord, my father-in-law Xiang's full name is Xiang Yi. It is said that he has been with the Dowager Empress since twenty years ago. He is the confidant of the Dowager Empress."

The little eunuch said this to remind Liu Wei not to offend Eunuch Xiang. This man was deeply loved by the Dowager Empress, and even if the emperor saw him, he would still give him some respect.

Liu Wei didn't intend to offend this person. Although she didn't know why, it couldn't be without reason that Father-in-law Xiang suddenly opposed her so directly and interfered with her solving the case.

Liu Wei was recalling what she said in the ice room that made Eunuch Xiang suddenly turn against him.
