Jiang Wang was silent for a while. He recalled the Marquis who was stripped of his clothes and whipped to the point that he could not even stand properly. He finally digested the news and said, "Sir Wu, you mean … Tian Xili was the one who did it? How dare he? "
Lin Youxie did not answer directly, but explained, "The Ten-Thousand Spirit Freezing Snow is not a naturally occurring poison. It is not even considered a poison. It was first refined because of a Taoist technique called the Triple Nine Cold Cicada. This Taoist technique is powerful and strange. The cultivation process is very difficult. Only one in ten thousand cultivators can master it. But with the help of the Ten-Thousand Spirit Freezing Snow, one can master it very quickly. "
Jiang Wang thought that this was similar to the Art of Immortality.
Lin Youxie continued, "The process of making the Thousand Spirit Freezing Snow is to take the blood from the fingertips of nine babies with different fate, the blood from the forehead of nine little girls with different personalities, the blood from the heart of nine adults with different professions, and the soul of nine different creatures. Finally, they will be melted together with the secret technique of the Triple Nine Cold Cicada … In the end, they will form a snowflake. Because there are more than ten thousand combinations of materials for this object, it is impossible to calculate. That is why it is called Thousand Spirit Freezing Snow.
"Later, someone discovered that even without the cultivation of the Triple Nine Cold Cicada, once the Ten-Thousand Spirit Freezing Snow comes into contact with human blood, the cold poison will enter one's life instantly. There is no cure. Only then did it exist as a poison. Moreover, it is one of the most poisonous substances in the world. Everyone's final product is different. "
"After the Ten-Thousand Spirit Freezing Snow comes into contact with human blood, one can only be saved if the antidote for the Ten-Thousand Spirit Freezing Snow is taken within three breaths. But even if one recognizes the Ten-Thousand Spirit Freezing Snow, who can make the appropriate antidote within three breaths? If one does not know which nine birth charts, which nine personalities, which nine professions, which nine creatures, there is no way to cure this cold poison … Other than the refiner of the Ten-Thousand Spirit Freezing Snow, who would know? "
"Therefore, the Ten-Thousand Spirit Freezing Snow is almost undefeatable. At the same time, every one of it is unique in the world."
"At the moment of life and death, the things that can be left behind are very limited. I think the clue that Grandpa Wu left behind is that he found the Ten-Thousand Spirit Freezing Snow that matches the case of Imperial Concubine Lei from Tian Xili. In other words, he finally found evidence to confirm that Tian Xili was the one who made the Ten Thousand Spirit Freezing Snow. "Lin Youxie said," And this is probably the reason why he died. "
Upon hearing this, Jiang Wang couldn't help but recall the painting of all living beings in the Longevity Palace.
Was the observation of all living beings in the murals also Jiang Wuqi's analysis of the cold poison in his body?
Had the Eleventh Highness been observing all this time? Whose blood was it? Whose blood was it? Whose blood was it? Whose blood was it? Whose blood was it?
Maybe there was no cure for the cold poison, but if it could ease it a little and give him more time, maybe there would be a different result …
Jiang Wang sighed. "Even if there was any evidence of the Ten Thousand Spirit Freezing Snow, it must have been destroyed by now, right?"
"Of course," Lin Youxie said.
Originally, if he had that piece of evidence, he could rely on the unique characteristics of the Ten Thousand Spirit Freezing Snow to pin Tian Xili down. But now, all the evidence was gone, and Uriel was dead …
In such a case, the most difficult part was not the investigation. Only a few people in the world could compare with Uriel in terms of investigation ability. But in this case, the difficult part was the person he had to face. It was the shadow that swallowed everything.
Although he knew that the sun should be shining brightly outside, he still felt that the night was long and endless.
"Things have already turned out this way." Jiang Wang said energetically, "We already know that the assassin back then was related to the Tian Family of Daze. Anyway, we have a clear direction and locked on to the target. We have to investigate slowly. Sooner or later, they will give themselves away. "
"Not really." Lin Youxie shook his head. "The person who entered the palace to assassinate Imperial Concubine Lei was not from the Tian Family of Daze."
"Not from the Tian Family of Daze?" Jiang Wang felt that he was a little confused.
Lin Youxie said seriously, "The Tian Family of Daze should have provided the Ten Thousand Spirit Freezing Snow, but the person who did it had nothing to do with them."
"Wait, do you mean that the assassination of Imperial Concubine Lei was the result of cooperation between several parties?" Jiang Wang said keenly, "Why would they divide into several groups to do such a big thing that could lead to the extermination of the whole family if they were not careful? It doesn't make sense, and it is definitely not a smart choice. "
From the perspective of the assassin, the fewer people involved in such a big thing as the assassination of Imperial Concubine Lei, the better. The simpler the process, the better. One more person would increase the danger of the information being leaked. One more person would increase the possibility of the information being exposed.
"This is also what puzzles me." Lin Youxie said, "But this is the evidence we have. The evidence will not lie."
Jiang Wang pressed his forehead. "No … If the person who entered the palace to assassinate Imperial Concubine Lei had nothing to do with the Tian Family of Daze, then why did Senior Uriel investigate the Tian Family for so many years?"
"Because of my father." Lin Youxie said, "When my father investigated the assassination of Imperial Concubine Lei, he caught a person with his own hands. Later, it was proven that he caught the wrong person, but that person had died in prison. Because of this, the Beiya government suffered great pressure, and then … there was the news that my father 'committed suicide out of fear of punishment'. "
"The person my father caught was called Tian Fen, and he was from the Tian Family of Daze. At that time, he was the deputy general of the North Gate of the Imperial City Guards, and he was in charge of the security of the nine city gates in the north of Linzi. When the assassination of Imperial Concubine Lei happened, he was drinking in the brothel. After later investigation, it was proven that he was not present at all and had nothing to do with the assassination of Imperial Concubine Lei. He was completely innocent … "
How could such an innocent person die in prison?
Jiang Wang said, "Others said that your father caught the wrong person, so he committed suicide out of fear of punishment. But Senior Uriel did not believe that he would commit suicide out of fear of punishment, nor did he believe that he caught the wrong person … So he did not give up investigating the Tian Family for so many years? "
"Now the clue of the Ten-Thousand Spirit Freezing Snow has explained everything." Lin Youxie said seriously, "My father definitely did not catch the wrong person back then, but the evidence was destroyed."
Looking at Lin Youxie's resolute expression, Jiang Wang suddenly recalled that when they were overseas, Lin Youxie had once lost control of his emotions. It was because he had questioned Lin Youxie if he had never caught the wrong person …
It turned out that there was such a story.
In the years when Lin Kuang was denied, she worked hard to solve the case, never caring about the danger, just to rebuild the reputation of the Blue Medal Aristocratic Family … She did not want to "catch the wrong person" again.
"I still don't understand." Jiang Wang said slowly, "Since you are sure that there is a problem with the Tian Family, why do you insist that the assassin has nothing to do with the Tian Family of Daze?"
"After my father died, the case was put on hold. Grandpa Wu wanted to restart the investigation several times, but he was rejected, so he could only resign. During that time, he concealed his identity and visited many places … "
Lin Youxie said, "Grandpa Wu found that the assassin who assassinated Imperial Concubine Lei had appeared in the same restaurant with He Fu before the incident. Of course, no one saw them communicating. But this in itself already constituted a clue. "
"Uncle He?" Jiang Wang said, "So you were sure that the current Empress was the real murderer at that time?"
"No." Lin Youxie shook her head, "You don't know He Fu. This person is mediocre and does not have the ability to operate such a big event. The only time the assassin appeared in front of people was in the same restaurant with He Fu … Obviously, it was a kind of framing. So it was exactly at that time that Grandpa Wu excluded the current Empress from the suspect list. "
"Who would have thought?" Her expression was a little bitter, "Grandpa Wu's first suspect was the current Empress, because there are not many people who can destroy all the clues in the palace. Later, after analysis and verification, he thought that she was not, so she was excluded. Until this time, Feng Gu used suicide to emphasize to us that … the real murderer behind the scenes was the Empress. "
Jiang Wang said in a low voice, "The assassin and He Fu appeared in the same restaurant. Maybe it was the current Empress's trick. She wanted to use He Fu's stupidity to make people think that this matter was a framing, so that the Empress herself could be cleared of suspicion. "
"Now that I think about it, it is possible …" Lin Youxie said, "But Grandpa Wu could only investigate alone at that time …"
"The assassin who killed Imperial Concubine Lei was a nameless person. No one could find out anything about him, and he died on the spot, so there was no way to trace back.
But this is also a kind of clue.
Before making a move, except for that one time in the restaurant, the assassin had no contact with anyone and left no trace in the world.
He is not someone who can be cultivated by an ordinary force.
He must be a man of sacrifice raised by an aristocratic family or a powerful sect.
Of course, there are many forces in the world that can meet this requirement, but if we narrow it down to the Eastern Region or even Qi, there are not many. "
Jiang Wang said, "Of course, the Tian family is one of them."
"So is the Lei family," Lin Youxie said.
Jiang Wang frowned.
"The assassin sneaked in from Wuning Gate, and the palace guards guarding the gate were all killed afterwards. Even if there were any clues, they should have been destroyed. But we found that the leader of the palace guards at that time was surnamed Zhang. He had a two-year-old son who was lost before the incident. "
Lin Youxie said, "We found this boy … He grew up in the Lei family, and now he is the deputy commander of the Lei family guards."
It had to be said that Uriel and Lin Youxie's hard work for so many years was not in vain.
Especially Uriel, who had found so many things alone without the support of the Blue Medal. He was definitely worthy of the title "Famous Detective of the Generation".
But Jiang Wang only felt that he was in chaos again, "The Lei family wanted to kill Imperial Concubine Lei? For what? "
Lin Youxie looked at him and only asked, "What if she is not dead?"
It was like a sudden clap of thunder across the night sky!
What if … Imperial Concubine Lei was not dead?
No one would believe that a pregnant woman would design such a dangerous assassination scene by herself.
So, what if she was not dead?
Then the fact that the assassin and He Fu appeared in the same restaurant was enough to implicate the current Empress.
That year was the 38th year of Yuanfeng.
Three years ago, the dethroned Crown Prince had just been imprisoned in the Green Stone Palace. Jiang Wuliang had completely left the throne, and there was no possibility for him to rise again.
The current Crown Prince was also the official Crown Prince in the second year of the dethroned Crown Prince's imprisonment in the Green Stone Palace, which was the 36th year of Yuanfeng.
In the 38th year of Yuanfeng, when the assassination of Imperial Concubine Lei happened, Jiang Wuhua had only been Crown Prince for two years, and his position in the East Palace was not stable … Not to mention at that time, even until today, Jiang Wuhua's position as Crown Prince was not secure.
Otherwise, how could Huaying Palace, Yangxin Palace, and Changsheng Palace be built later?
So, what if Imperial Concubine Lei was assassinated at this time and survived, and her child was saved?
How angry would the Emperor be?
Dethroning the Empress and the Crown Prince … seemed to be reasonable.
Then, would Imperial Concubine Lei have a chance to be the Empress?
Would Imperial Concubine Lei's child have a chance to be the Crown Prince?
Of course!
If Imperial Concubine Lei planned the assassination herself, then of course, she could erase all the traces, and of course, she could give the assassin a suitable opportunity in the heavily guarded Imperial Palace.
Think about it, what a bold plan it was!
The Emperor was away on an expedition, and Imperial Concubine Lei was pregnant and waiting to give birth. At such a critical moment, the assassination that shook the Eastern Region happened, and the Empress was involved …
Once the assassination failed, two lives would be lost. Once it was discovered, dying without a burial place would be a light punishment.
This was fighting for the Empress's position with her life!
"But Imperial Concubine Lei died in the end …" Jiang Wang said with an inexplicable emotion.
"So, why did Feng Gu believe that the Empress was the real murderer?" Lin Youxie said, "Because the Empress, whom Imperial Concubine Lei wanted to frame, was definitely not someone who could be manipulated at will, let alone someone who Imperial Concubine Lei could scheme against. She used some means to turn Imperial Concubine Lei's fake death into a real death! "
Jiang Wang murmured, "For example, she secretly smeared Ten-Thousand Spirit Frozen Snow on the assassin's knife …"
"And the one who did this was the Tian Family." Lin Youxie said sadly, "I only figured everything out last night."
Yes … Yes!
A large part of Lin Youxie's restoration of the case was based on speculation. In fact, there were very few things that could really be regarded as evidence. Because basically all the evidence had been destroyed.
But Jiang Wang had already believed it.
Because he had a piece of information that Lin Youxie didn't know — that was, Jiang Wuqi had also investigated the old case seventeen years ago. With his identity and resources that were far better than Uriel's, he quickly got the result. But in the end, he chose to keep silent.
Why did he keep silent?
Only Lin Youxie's restoration of the case today could explain it!
Because the whole assassination case was designed by Imperial Concubine Lei herself.
It was Imperial Concubine Lei who was bold enough to design the assassination. But her ability was limited. She met an opponent who was far inferior to her and was beaten at her own game. In the end, it led to her own death and caused the child in her womb to be born with a cold poison!
At the last moment of her life, Imperial Concubine Lei struggled desperately in that winter night and tried her best to save the child in her womb …
Was her mood at that time … despair or guilt?
But in any case, her love for the child in her womb was not fake.
Jiang Wuqi found out the truth, but he didn't want to criticize his stupid mother seventeen years later! Even if this case was opened, it was possible to drag the Empress down and create an opportunity for him to fight for the throne.
When the Emperor mentioned Imperial Concubine Lei later, it was all reminiscence.
If the case was really opened, what would the Emperor think? What would the Emperor say? How would he treat the Lei Family?
So, on the tombstone in the painting of All Living Things, there was only "the dead are gone".
She was already dead. What else could Jiang Wuqi say?
