Seeing He Lianheng's expression calm and expressionless, Du Suxi sat down, picked up a piece of shredded meat with chopsticks and was about to put it into his mouth, but was stopped by He Lianheng.
"What's wrong?" Du Suxi was surprised and looked at He Lianheng in surprise. There was a dark piece of meat on the chopsticks, which looked very...
He Lianheng looked at Du Suxi's doubtful gaze towards him, a suspicious blush flashed across his face, but he immediately recovered and looked at Du Suxi seriously. "Before that, should you explain to me where you went with Helian Kuang so late at night?"
Du Suxi was stunned, put down his chopsticks, smiled awkwardly, and began to explain. He Lianheng watched Du Suxi put down his chopsticks from the corner of his eye, and then secretly breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, and listened carefully to what Du Suxi said. .
Du Suxi told the truth except that He Liankuang was poisoned by corpse poison, she cut his pulse for artificial respiration and how to reach an agreement with Helian Kuang. Du Suxi told the truth. He Lianheng asked a few more questions. Du Suxi told the truth. Su Xi was prevaricating vaguely, and He Lianheng was a little absent-minded, so it was considered a blur.
"After you have examined Prince Wang's body, what conclusions have you reached?" He Lianheng asked. There are currently too few clues that can prove Du Suxi's innocence, and it is difficult to bring it to light. The only way is to seize the real clues. Only the murderer could clear Du Suxi's suspicion.
Du Suxi smiled bitterly and shook her head. In fact, she had already guessed that there was an 80% chance that she might return without success. After all, in the past three days, the clothes Wang Ergou was wearing when he was killed were not only changed After three days of natural decay, even if there was evidence, nothing could be found under natural conditions and without the help of any high technology. However, she still gave it a try with a 20% hope. Hope to find some valuable clues. But the result disappointed her.
The people from Prince Junyuan's Mansion not only took off all of Wang Ergou's clothes, but also beautified Wang Ergou's body to the greatest extent. Although the face he saw at that time was naturally decayed, it looked so dignified that it was impossible to see it. Judging from the expression before death, it can be said that entering Junyuan Hou's mansion at night was completely in vain.
Sighing, Du Suxi looked at He Lianheng's worried eyes looking at her, shook his head and said. "Although the body of Second Young Master Wang is well preserved, there is nothing I want to see."
The whole thing has hit its first bottleneck. He Lianheng's eyes showed a bit of disappointment, but he quickly covered it up so that Du Suxi wouldn't see it.
Fortunately, Du Suxi was also thinking about everything she saw in the coffin and did not notice anything strange about He Lianheng.
After taking a few calm breaths, Du Suxi raised her head, looked at He Lianheng, forced a smile, and asked. "What about you? How's the matter with that shoe going? Is there any progress?"
He Lianheng slowly shook his head, looked at Du Suxi's eyes, and said. "The situation is not optimistic. According to the conditions you provided, there are dozens of boudoir ladies in this capital who are suspected of this. Moreover, the forces hidden in the dark cannot be calculated at all. If you want to make a conservative estimate, at least There are hundreds of people, and it may not be easy to find the murderer among these hundreds of people."
Having said this, He Lianheng shook his head helplessly, looking somewhat depressed.
Du Suxi looked happy. In fact, she was originally
She also didn't have much hope in deriving clues from the footprints, so she didn't have much expectation for the result. After all, she wasn't a young girl with nothing to do but daydreams. Naturally, she knew that based on her vague speculations, Looking for it among this vast population is like looking for a needle in a haystack. Even if you really want to look for it, I'm afraid it will be time-consuming and labor-intensive.
But he didn't expect that in such a short period of time, He Lianheng would achieve some results. Although the final result was still uncertain, this result was beyond Du Suxi's expectation and was very important to Du Suxi. Surprised.
At the same time, Du Suxi also had a preliminary understanding of He Lianheng's true strength. Although their relationship was good, Du Suxi felt a sense of distance. She was still far from being exposed to Dao He Lianheng's true strength. Thinking of this, Du Suxi couldn't help but feel a little helpless. After all, she still underestimated He Lianheng.
After getting the list of dozens of suspects from He Lianheng, Du Suxi couldn't help but be surprised when she saw the first name.
"Shangguan Xuanying?"
Raising her eyebrows slightly, Du Suxi looked at He Lianheng and asked with a half-smile. "You have thought about it, she is your fiancée, and if she is the murderer, the negative consequences for you will make your reputation plummet.
He Lianheng's face turned red and he actually spoke in embarrassment. "I have no way to make the final decision regarding marriage, the orders of my parents and the words of the matchmaker, but I will do my best to change this situation."
Looking at He Lianheng's determined eyes, Du Suxi's heart suddenly sank. To a certain extent, He Lianheng's ruthlessness was far inferior to that of He Lian Kuang. Perhaps it was because he had been a genius since he was a child. He Lianheng has lived a carefree life since he was a child. He has been a handsome young man since he was a child, so he doesn't know what resistance is and what growth is. All this is because He Lianheng has too many setbacks in his life.
At this point, He Lian Kuang seemed to be much stronger than him. Du Suxi, inexplicably, suddenly ignored the hatred she had towards He Lian Kuang in such a hazy sky, and suddenly felt that He Lian Kuang was very good.
The sky gradually became brighter, and the outline of the sun gradually rose from the sea level in the east. The entire sky was in a chaotic state of half darkness and half dawn.
He Lianheng stood up at this time and took Du Suxi's hand without any explanation. Du Suxi looked at the slender fingers with distinct joints and was extremely beautiful. He was stunned for a moment, but He Lianheng still held it. His hands passively followed He Lianheng's footsteps.
He Lianheng stood there, exhaled slightly, pointed to the sun on the other side and said to Du Suxi.
"Du Suxi, look, the light is gradually swallowing up the darkness. In this world, evil cannot defeat good after all."
Du Suxi followed He Lianheng's instructions and raised her head, looking at the hazy sky. In her eyes, the darkness was swallowed up by the dawn in an overwhelming way. Gradually the darkness became lighter and lighter, and was assimilated into light, illuminating the surroundings with a bright and clear light. There were only one outline of flowers all around. , blooming with the beauty she should have.
It seems that the Qingming Festival is already very beautiful. Du Suxi tilted her head, looked at He Lianheng's obsessed look, and smiled reluctantly as a response.
But she didn't tell He Lianheng. In fact, what she liked was darkness. Darkness could hide everything she had, while light made all sins disappear.
Escaped form.
In fact, she has never been a kind person.
"Du Suxi, do you know?" He Lianheng looked at Chu Yang and suddenly spoke.
"Now I wish I could sit on the throne as soon as possible and give you an identity so that you don't have to hide in Tibet. I can openly admit your identity instead of using a fake name of Dusha to deceive others."
He said it seriously and solemnly. Du Suxi was slightly shocked and looked at He Lianheng with her mouth open. She didn't expect that He Lianheng would give her such a promise. Just when she was about to explain, He Lianheng smiled at her and placed a kiss on her forehead. After pressing a kiss, he used Qinggong and left directly.
But I’m really afraid that they come and go without a trace. Du Suxi looked at it in a daze, at a loss, a little confused and couldn't sort out the clues. He only had the list left in his hand by He Lianheng, telling Du Suxi that all this happened in real life and was not a dream.
After taking a look at the slowly rising sun, Du Suxi felt a little sleepy, so she opened her door directly, locked it carefully, lay down on her bed, closed her eyes and fell asleep.
Her current condition is getting worse and worse, and she is getting more and more lethargic. She always feels weak and extremely tired, but she has never told anyone, not even Taohua.
She drank the soup sent to her every day as usual, but only she knew that her condition was getting worse and worse, and she would even feel dizzy in her mind from time to time.
One sleep passed another day, and when she woke up, the lights were dim, and Zhong Lingxi banged the door outside with a loud bang. She usually woke up at the slightest sound, but now she was awakened by such a loud noise.
Although this face and body are only 28 years old and youthful, the inside is already rotten. It seems that a decrepit old man lives there, without any vitality or breath.
Looking at her pale face and lips, Du Suxi picked up the rouge and gouache on the dressing table and applied some makeup on herself. Looking at her "rosy" complexion, she walked forward and opened the door, looking at an anxious face. Qingzhuang and Zhong Lingxi asked calmly. "What's wrong? What happened?"
She likes peace and quiet. Except for a very limited number of people in Moshang Xiangfang, who can freely enter and leave her courtyard, no one else can. At this time, both Zhong Lingxi and Qingzhuang came, so there must be something going on.
Qingzhuang spoke immediately. "Miss, the eldest lady is here. She is in the front hall and wants to see you."
"Du Yunxi? Does she have the guts to come?" Du Suxi raised her eyebrows slightly, a little surprised, but looking at Qingzhuang's face, it didn't look like she was talking nonsense.
However, since she dared to come, she had no reason to hide away. Thinking of this, Du Suxi raised a smile on her lips and waved to Zhong Lingxi. Zhong Lingxi came over understandingly, and Du Suxi whispered a few words, Zhong Lingxi's eyes flashed with fierceness.
"Girl, is there anything wrong with doing this?"
A sarcastic smile appeared on Du Suxi's lips, and she asked disapprovingly. "What's wrong? As the old saying goes, coming uninvited is a thief. If you don't give face to the Du family, such people will be beaten out. If she is dissatisfied, just tell her what I said directly."
Zhong Lingxi was startled and nodded immediately. "That's a good plan, girl. However, His Highness Seventh Prince is here today and is waiting for the girl in the side hall."
"Oh? He's here too?" Du Suxi was a little surprised and nodded immediately. "You came just in time, I just have something to ask him about."
