Yu Wenzhe opened the envelope and looked at the handwriting on the letterhead, his brows furrowed deeper and deeper.
The handwriting on the letter paper was neat, and there were still a few drops of water on it, like teardrops.
Yu Wenzhe took the letter and fell silent.
I don't know how long later, with a "creak", the door was opened a crack, a cool wind blew, the candles shook, and the room became even darker.
"Young master, I found it, there was no special treatment in Dali Temple, the body was stored in Yizhuang, no one took care of it, and there was no autopsy" Lin Ping entered the house, dressed in a night suit, like a messenger of the night.
"Okay, Uncle Lin, since there is no one to perform the autopsy, then we will conduct the autopsy ourselves" Yu Wenzhe stood up, and on his bed, he also folded a dark night suit.
"Young master, you really think this matter is strange, we have only been in Chang'an for a few days, it is really aimed at us, will it really be just a coincidence of this suicide note?"
"There are coincidences in this world, but so many coincidences come together, it must be man-made, this suicide note is a perfect explanation of what happened in the Prince's Mansion, but the people behind it didn't expect that you and I would find someone following, I'm afraid it's because I drank that cup of poisonous wine and nothing happened, which led to the denial of the existence of the poisonous wine, which broke some people's plans, so Wang Shanggong committed suicide, because Wang Shanggong is the most critical person, and most of the key people will be sealed" Yu Wenzhe said, handed the suicide note to Lin Ping's eyes, Lin Ping took the suicide note, and looked at it carefully, "Niangniang brought back a maid, the grace is good, the old slave has been conscientious for more than 20 years, but every night he is worried that he will be replaced by the position of the Shang Palace, and he is carried away by fear, not only did he not follow the will of the mother to take care of her, but arranged her to the East Palace, signaled the prince to kill her, and was panicked every day. ” "This whole thing is too satisfying, and there are reasonable explanations for everything, but the more this is the case, the more uneasy I feel in my heart, who has such great ability, can affect the harem, dominate people's life and death, we must find out this group of forces, otherwise it will be too terrible" When Lin Ping went to find out the location of Wang Shanggong's body, Yu Wenzhe kept thinking about what he knew in the history of the Zhenguan period, who could do this, during the Zhenguan period, it was indeed a large number of wealthy families, and the prestige of the wealthy families in their own places was even higher than that of Li Tang, but Li Tang was orthodox after all, and he was the largest wealthy family, and there was really no force that could act like this in the harem, at least Yu Wenzhe thought about it, and he couldn't think of any records in history.
Therefore, Dali Temple believes that Wang Shanggong is a suicide, and others will take it for granted, if this suicide note is published to the public, it will provide more motivation for Wang Shanggong's suicide.
"What the young master said is that such a force is hidden in the shadows, like a cold poisonous snake, no matter what we do in the future, we will be like a fish in the throat, but young master, is there anything strange on the corpse of Wang Shanggong" Lin Ping thought for a while and said.
"She hanged herself, and when she died, her tongue came out, and I found a little scrap of paper in her mouth, and when she cut her body, maybe there would be the answer we wanted."
Yu Wenzhe put on his night clothes, blew out the candles on the table, and the bedroom suddenly fell into darkness.
Although there will be a curfew in the Tang Dynasty, the frequency of military patrols is not very high, and Yu Wenzhe and Lin Ping evaded the patrol and came to Yizhuang where the corpses were stored in Dali Temple was simply easy.
There are not many corpses stored in Yizhuang, only a limited number of them, and now it has entered the early stage of Zhenguan's rule, and the crime rate of the entire Tang Dynasty has weakened to the lowest in history, and Dali Temple generally handles the cases of the bureaucracy, so as soon as you enter Yizhuang, you can see the location of Wang Shanggong at a glance.
Yu Wenzhe looked around, carefully opened the door of Yizhuang, and Lin Ping entered inside, Wang Shanggong's body was in the center of Yizhuang.
Yu Wenzhe walked over to the corpse and lifted the white cloth covering the corpse.
Wang Shanggong's corpse had already become stiff, and his skin was oozing with the color of iron blue, which was due to the fact that the blood had already coagulated.
Yu Wenzhe took out the dagger, cut open Wang Shanggong's shirt, pressed his hands on it, and found the location of his stomach.
At the same time, Lin Ping's body shook, as if he had discovered something, he stepped to the door in a few steps, looked outside through the window paper, and there were several figures flickering outside, "Young Master, someone is coming" Yu Wenzhe didn't pay attention to it, just frowned, held the dagger steadily in his right hand, without the slightest trembling, and swiped downward, the skin and flesh were separated, and only some black and slimy blood seeped out.
In the next moment, there was a sound like rain outside the door, Lin Ping stood inside the door, sniffed his nose, and his face suddenly became ugly.
"Young master, it's tung oil, these people want to burn Yizhuang, we should go" Lin Ping just finished speaking, and those people outside had already put down the wooden barrel in their hands, took out a fire fold in their arms, the fire fold was ignited, and suddenly threw it towards the door of Yizhuang.
"Waiting" Yu Wenzhe held a jet-black thing in his hand, then slashed it with a dagger, rummaged through it carefully, and said without raising his head.
As time passed, the fire ignited violently, and the wooden door stained with tung oil was extremely flammable, and in just a few breaths, the entire Yizhuang was enveloped in fire.
The fire quickly attracted attention, Yizhuang was originally guarded, and the soldiers patrolling the streets were nearby at this time, so it was discovered at the moment when the fire ignited.
"Young master, go, otherwise it will be too late" Because of the impact of the fire, Lin Ping couldn't stand behind the door, and retreated behind Yu Wenzhe, and the people outside were boiling, and they were about to overpower the sound of the flames burning.
"Okay, I found it" Yu Wenzhe's face was flushed from the fire, but his expression was very excited, and some scraps of paper soaked in black blood appeared on his hands.
"Okay, let's go" Lin Ping nodded, and the two of them slammed through the flames and slammed over the window.
The fire became more and more intense, and the whole scene became more and more chaotic, and Yu Wenzhe and Lin Ping easily mixed up.
"Uncle Lin, I'll go back to Cao's Mansion first, after your palace, you must not let people follow me, and by the way, check the traces of those who set fire just now" After the two left Yizhuang for a distance, Yu Wenzhe stopped and said to Lin Ping.
"That's what I mean, young master, then let's separate here" Lin Ping nodded, stopped, and looked at the back of the two of them all the way.
After Yu Wenzhe returned to Cao's Mansion, he went directly to his room, the scope of Cao's Mansion was huge, but there were few people, and the only subordinates were all arranged to take care of Mrs.
Cao in the inner courtyard, so they were not afraid of being touched at all.
A basin of water was placed on the table, Yu Wenzhe washed the scraps of paper in the water in his hand, and then put them on the table, and carefully observed them in the dim candlelight.
The paper had become crumbling and blurry from the acid and blood of the stomach, and only some handwriting could be faintly discerned.
Yu Wenzhe fiddled with it for a long time, and could only see the word "Li" on the fragments that looked like the corners of the paper, and it seemed that the person who wrote the word "Li" at the beginning subconsciously used his wrist to write the word "Li" very hard.
It wasn't until the second half of the night that Lin Ping rushed back, and after Lin Ping came back, he came directly to Yu Wenzhe's bedroom.
Yu Wenzhe sat at the table, squinting slightly, the shredded paper on the table had become dry over time, and after being soaked in gastric juice, blood, and water, he finally couldn't see the pen and ink on it completely clearly.
"Young master, the fire has been extinguished, but all the corpses in Yizhuang have been burned to the bones, and as for the black-clothed people who set the fire, they are all gone, and we are still a little late to go out.
What have you found on these shredded papers?"
"That's fine, at least we don't have to cover up the matter of going to the autopsy, since the other party has done this matter so satisfactorily, then it is unlikely that we can find out, after all, we have just come to Chang'an, there is no background, as long as we have some precautions in our hearts, now our attention is still focused on the use of troops against the Turks, this Manchu military general is not easy to deal with, the forward army, I don't know how many people are staring at this position" Yu Wenzhe didn't say a word to Lin Ping, a word couldn't explain anything at all, let alone find a breakthrough, at most it only confirmed the speculation that there was indeed a force in Chang'an, and the claws of this force were stretched out.
"Then young master, you can rest first."
Lin Ping glanced at Yu Wenzhe deeply, didn't say anything, turned around and walked towards the door.
Yu Wenzhe has an obsession in his heart, that is, the Turks who are far away in the grassland, before they capture Jieli back to Chang'an, Yu Wenzhe will subconsciously avoid anything, even if this matter has threatened his safety, maybe only by destroying the Turks, Yu Wenzhe can completely return to his original state, and now Yuwen Zhe is flawed in his heart.
"Uncle Lin, three days later is the birthday of General Li's wife, General Li will also return in the barracks to prepare a gift, since he came to Chang'an, he has been taken care of so much by General Li, and he should pay a formal visit, by the way, and the four adults who came to congratulate him on the renovation of the mansion that night should also return the gift."
As soon as Lin Ping opened the door of the house, he heard Yu Wenzhe's voice coming, his body shook, and he turned around again.

"The young master is going to visit General Li, but he has eyebrows" "That's right, the position of the general of the forward army has been half reached, and it is time to bring Uncle Tiger back, and there are some things that General Li must know, I need to figure it out" Lin Ping nodded, his eyes showing a hint of joy, "Don't worry, I'll be ready otntforiitfreeti0." t1706231537:
