Chapter 96 Who is smarter than who?
But now, Princess Qi Yang is dead, and all the guards around her are dead too. How is he going to explain this to the Princess and the Emperor?
I'm afraid you will have to go to Beijing even if you don't want to.
Suddenly, Lu Yunyang had a bold idea.
"Could it be Jiang Jiu who killed Princess Qi Yang? Look at the wounds on Qi Yang, could it be caused by the treasure she found? If it was Jiang Jiu who beat her to death, why did she put the blame on me?"
When Lu Ming heard this, he was stunned.
"That's impossible. Miss Jiang is a kind person. How could she kill someone?"
"Besides, Princess Qi Yang has no grudge against her..."
No, Princess Qi Yang had imprisoned her and beaten her until her body was covered with bruises.
"Master, if Princess Qiyang made things difficult for Miss Jiang because of the treasure she wanted, would she kill Miss Jiang because she found the treasure and refused to give it to Princess Qiyang?"
Sure enough, even Lu Ming figured it out, so how could Lu Yunyang not figure it out?
And there are only a few people in the villa tonight.
The only person who could kill all of Princess Qi Yang’s maids and guards was Ye Guzhou.
This woman is so brave. I want to see what she is going to do.
Lu Yunyang waved his hand and said, "Bring me a pot of good wine. I will not leave until my wife and I are drunk."
In Jiang Jiu's room, she was still sitting at the desk, playing with the gun in her hands, skillfully taking it apart and putting it back together, taking it apart again and putting it back together again.
We also combined the drawings left by Jiang Yao and conducted a careful study.
Unlike Jiang Yao, Jiang Jiu is just an ordinary office clerk and usually has no chance to come into contact with guns.
However, she had the opportunity to dismantle a gun during military training in college.
The pistols were made very small and easy to hide. Among the drawings left by Jiang Yao, there were pistols, sniper rifles, and AKs.
Jiang Jiu felt that Jiang Yao seemed to want to do it, but for some reason, he didn't do it.
Ye Guzhou stood by and watched.
"The prince is coming." Ye Guzhou judged when he heard the footsteps.
Jiang Jiu reassembled the pistol and put it back into the ceremony.
She stood up and went to the balcony. She knew very well the purpose of Lu Yunyang's visit.
"Now that I have figured out the murderer, do you think he will kill me?"
Ye Guzhou had no expression on his face and spoke indifferently: "If he dares to touch you, I will kill him first."
Jiang Jiu smiled: "If he had ambition, he wouldn't kill me, and he might even let me help him."
Ye Guzhou remained silent.
Jiang Jiu suddenly muttered to himself: "How did Jiang Yao die? If she lived another 20 years, this world might not be hers."
After a long while, Ye Guzhou finally said slowly, "She is sick, her body is very cold, corpse spots have grown on a living person's body, the doctor said she has been dead for a long time..."
Jiang Jiu was slightly startled and an immature idea came to his mind.
Could it be that the body that Jiang Yao's soul entered was incompatible with her soul?
"After she died, was she burned to ashes and scattered into the sea?"
Well, a hint of sadness flashed across Ye Guzhou's indifferent expression.
Jiang Jiu thought carefully about the strange dream. It seemed like a dream but also not. It was so real as if it was her personal experience at work.
"I dreamed about her. She died here, but maybe she was revived over there."
Sudden death may mean the intersection of time and space.
Jiang Jiu could only think so. After all, modern medicine is still very advanced.
It is also possible that Jiang Yao came here for a trip while being treated in the hospital. She was almost recovered there, but passed away here.
Ye Guzhou didn't understand what Jiang Jiu meant, but he didn't pursue it.
The reason why he was willing to follow Jiang Jiu was simply because Jiang Jiu was too similar to Jiang Yao.
They don't look alike, but they have the same confident aura and the aura that seems everyone is equal, but will take revenge if there is a grudge, will complain if there is a grudge, and will fight if you are not satisfied. They are too similar.
Including the way she shot Princess Qi Yang just now, it reminded him of the way Jiang Yao shot the third prince, exactly the same.
Lu Yunyang was carrying a jug of wine, and Shanshan arrived late.
"Xiao Jiuer, let's have a drink together..."
After spending his time eating, drinking and having fun, Lu Yunyang returned to his lazy and dissolute self.
Ye Guzhou did not stop him this time, but just stopped Lu Ming outside the door.
Lu Yunyang and Jiang Jiu were the only two people left in the room.
In addition to the heating pipes under the floor, the room also has a wall-mounted stove.
The fire inside is silver bone charcoal, there is no smoke and it is very warm.
The wall-mounted stove also has a chimney that leads directly to the roof.
There was a concubine couch in front of the stove. Jiang Yao should often lie on it to rest, but Jiang Jiu felt it was too hot, so he moved the concubine couch aside.
There were several dishes placed in front of the stove. Seeing Lu Yunyang took a pot of wine, he looked a little disgusted.
"I have some excellent wine here, the peach blossom wine brewed by my grandmother. I've heated it up. Have a drink."
Seeing that Jiang Jiu had already set up the banquet, Lu Yunyang didn't say anything and sat on the cushion as the host wished.
Jiang Jiu poured him a glass of wine and also poured himself a glass.
"What do you want from me so late?"
Faced with such a smart woman like Jiang Jiu, Lu Yunyang didn't need to beat around the bush and went straight to the point.
"Did you find the treasure your grandmother left behind?"
Jiang Jiu remained silent, poured himself another glass of wine and drank it all in one gulp.
Lu Yunyang then asked: "You killed Qi Yang, why did you frame him for me?"
Jiang Jiu raised his gentle willow-shaped eyebrows and smiled.
"You figured it out so quickly, you're pretty smart."
She actually admitted it like that. Lu Yunyang suddenly felt a lump of air stuck in his chest, feeling suffocated and panicked.
"Why?" Lu Yunyang stared at Jiang Jiu with his beautiful peach blossom eyes, full of confusion but not sadness.
Jiang Jiu smiled and drank another glass of wine: "Guess..."
Lu Yunyang said bluntly: "I don't want to guess, I want you to say..."
Jiang Jiu tilted his cute head and thought for a while and said, "If you use my money, you have to ask for some interest. I am not the kind of person who likes to suffer losses..."
Lu Yunyang has been recruiting soldiers and horses on a big scale recently. Now that he has money and confidence, he can do whatever he wants.
But he never expected that Jiang Jiu would ask for interest.
"If the emperor knew that you killed Princess Qiyang, your entire clan would be exterminated."
Jiang Jiu blinked innocently: "That's why I put the blame on you. Could it be that the emperor can exterminate your entire clan?"
Lu Yunyang choked and was once again surprised by Jiang Jiu's logic.
Jiang Jiu drank another glass of wine leisurely: "Anyway, the news has spread all over Sucheng. I believe it will reach the capital in a few days. Maybe we will go to the capital together. Lu Yun... Oh, no, Your Highness Prince Qi, we will be in danger on the way to the capital. Let's keep each other warm."
Lu Yunyang didn't know what to say.
"Why do we have to go to the capital? I'm not ready yet."
Jiang Jiu smiled sarcastically: "What are you preparing for? It's been fifteen years. You have been preparing for fifteen years. Are you preparing to let the queen kill you, or are you preparing to kill the emperor and take back the throne..."
"How dare you say such outrageous words." Lu Yunyang was forced into such a situation, but he still did not think of resisting.
Jiang Jiu smiled: "You are too sentimental. Seeing him as your brother, who has watched you grow up, you are reluctant to kill him. But he is willing to kill you. You are lucky to have escaped once or twice. You can't escape every time."
