Chapter 214 The truth! Biluo's death!
Lin Shian didn't know what Lin Zhiqing was thinking, so he asked another question following the previous poem: "Zhiqing, you know that Dasheng has always been strict with women."
Hearing this, Lin Zhiqing came back to her senses and raised her eyebrows.
How could my cousin say such a thing?
"Cousin, just say whatever you want to say." Lin Zhiqing didn't like beating around the bush.
Lin Shian sighed softly: "Prince Jiang is your fiancé with a formal marriage certificate. You were a bit too rude yesterday."
Hearing this, Lin Zhiqing stopped and stared at Lin Shian.
Lin Shian's heart skipped a beat when he was stared at like that: "Zhiqing, why are you looking at me?"
Lin Zhiqing turned his head and said, "Nothing. I thought I was mistaken because it was too early today. I thought my uncle was standing in front of me."
As soon as these words were spoken, Lin Shian instantly understood that Lin Zhiqing was mocking him for being too pedantic and conservative.
His face was serious: "Zhiqing, this is a very serious matter. If anyone is blind enough to gossip about it, your reputation will be ruined."
"This is easy to handle. Just kill whoever is gossiping about you." Lin Zhiqing shrugged disapprovingly.
"This is too cruel. Besides, can you kill so many people?" Lin Shi'an's face was full of worry, but when he saw Lin Zhiqing laughing, he knew that what she said just now was just a joke.
Lin Shian was a little annoyed: "Why have you been making jokes all day long?"
"Cousin, let me ask you a question first." Lin Zhiqing said seriously:
"Do you also think that Prince Jiang is a good match?"
"Of course." Lin Shian nodded:
"His family background and appearance are beyond reproach. He used to visit you often under the pretext of sparring with me. These days, I've observed that he has a kind personality and is obedient to you. There's no one better than him."
Having said that, he couldn't help but mention it a little more:
"Although I've had a pleasant conversation with Lu Huai these days, and I know that he's both good-looking and has a good character, he's a man with his own ideas, and I'm afraid you can't control him."
"Cousin, has anyone ever praised you for your excellent taste before?" Lin Zhiqing asked Lin Shian with a smile.
Lin Shian frowned slightly, then felt that Lin Zhiqing was praising him, and immediately laughed:
"That's natural."
Lin Zhiqing smiled and said nothing more: "I understand."
Lin Shian breathed a sigh of relief.
As a brother, I just hope that my sister can live a better life in the future.
As long as Lin Zhiqing knows that her fiancé is Jiang Liuyun, she will just keep her distance from Lu Huai.
Just as he was thinking about this, Lin Zhiqing started to ask another question:
"Cousin, when you and Prince Jiang were interrogating Biluo, how did Biluo die?"
"Why do you suddenly ask this?" Lin Shian followed into the house.
Lin Zhiqing turned around and closed the door. "I've been thinking about it these days, and I always feel that my cousin being poisoned is a bit strange. Maybe it has something to do with Liu Mang."
"Liu Mang?" Hearing this name, Lin Shian did not look happy:
"This person's ghost is still lingering around. It's really abominable."
Liu Mang was indeed hateful, but Lin Zhiqing told a little lie. She asked about the old story of Biluo's death because she actually wanted to confirm the relationship between this matter and Jiang Liuyun, and to find evidence by the way.
But now she didn't want to reveal her purpose. The more people knew about it, the more likely it would alert the enemy.
In addition, he was already very cautious and very good at controlling his facial expressions, but Jiang Liuyun still noticed something was wrong.
In this situation, if other people knew this news, they would definitely not be able to control their expressions and would easily be seen by Jiang Liuyun.
If Jiang Liuyun found out that he was exposed, there was no telling what the Zhenyuan Marquis Mansion would do.
Therefore, she could not reveal this matter to anyone else and could only find evidence on her own.
Lin Shian didn't know the inside story, so he roughly recounted what happened before:
"When I went to the prison with Prince Jiang, before I could even ask any questions, Biluo started insulting the Lin family, especially you."
Hearing this, Lin Zhiqing raised his eyebrows. Biluo was indeed very hostile to him.
Lin Shian pinched his chin and said, "Biluo kept saying that he wanted to drag the Lin family to be buried with him, and then he bit the poisonous smoke in his mouth."
"It's my fault, actually. I removed Biluo's jaw myself, but I didn't find the poison in her mouth. Perhaps the poison was hidden too deep."
"This person is quite scheming. Prince Jiang and I almost fell into his trap. It was extremely dangerous."
Lin Zhiqing stood at the table and thought: "Did you see her bite through the poison with your own eyes?"
Lin Shian looked to the upper left, thought for a while, and then shook his head:
"She kept talking at the time, but I didn't see the details."
"But after the poisonous smoke dissipated, I went in to examine Biluo's body. Blood was coming out of all seven orifices, with the most bleeding coming from her mouth and nose. So it's possible that she hid the poison in her mouth."
"And after the poison was bitten, the poisonous smoke coating was likely absorbed into her body, so there was no trace left."
Lin Zhiqing nodded: "Before you and Prince Jiang, has anyone else come into contact with Biluo?"
"No, I was worried about my elder sister at that time, afraid that you would do something to Biluo..." Having said this, Lin Shian paused:
"Except for the time I spent communicating with everyone the next day, I stayed in the dark cell the entire time."
"So, since Biluo was taken to the dark prison, only you and Prince Jiang have been in there?" Lin Zhiqing frowned.
"That's right." Lin Shian was very sure.
Lin Zhiqing sat down:
"Then tell me the whole story of how the two of you went in. I'll analyze whether it's possible that someone took advantage of your absence to do this."
"Remember, every detail must be clearly stated."
Lin Shian didn't think much about it. After thinking for a moment, he spoke: "That day, after Jiang Shizi and I entered the dark prison, Biluo became very crazy and started cursing as soon as he opened his mouth."
"Did she start cursing as soon as you entered, or was there a gap in between?" Lin Zhiqing asked.
Lin Shian frowned slightly, as if recalling:
"She was on the gallows. When we got to the door, she took a look and for a moment...her eyes widened. Yes, they widened."
"Once we were in the cell, she started swearing."
His eyes widened in an instant... Lin Zhiqing frowned and thought.
This expression can be interpreted in many ways, such as surprise, fear, and delight, etc. The specific emotion still needs to be determined based on other facial expressions.
You shouldn't be able to tell anything from here alone.
The more Lin Shian spoke, the clearer the scene of that day became in his mind:
"I was so angry that I replied to her, but Prince Jiang didn't say anything."
"However, before he could continue cursing, Biluo's voice became quieter and quieter."
"I thought she had scolded me enough and was about to ask about the relevant matters, but I smelled the smell of poisonous smoke."
Recalling the scene at that time, Lin Shian was a little scared:
"I've been working in the Ministry of Personnel for so long that I'm somewhat sensitive to the smell of that poisonous smoke. After I realized something was wrong, I quickly pulled Prince Jiang out."
"But Prince Jiang reacted faster than me. He took two steps back and then quickly stepped forward, wanting to bring Biluo out."
"But after he checked Biluo's breath, he found that Biluo was dead, so we..."
After hearing this, Lin Zhiqing already understood the truth of the matter.
After going over the whole process in her mind, she gradually clenched her hands.
Jiang Liuyun is indeed the murderer who killed Biluo!
