Chapter 404 What he wants is not anyone’s life(1/2)
Lin Yunyan took a breath.
Indeed it is.
There are many dangers in the fire scene. If that person wants to kill Li Shao, he just needs to put him next to the fire.
A tragedy occurred in a main hall, and Li Shao died in the secondary room. Even if the position was strange, it would be judged as a child who panicked and fell.
But nothing happened to Li Shao.
"If you don't want Li Shao's life, do you just want to attack the late empress?" Lin Yunyan questioned. As soon as the words came out, she shook her head, "If I were him and had the drug that knocked out Eunuch Cai, I would kill Li Shao as well.
I fainted, then went into the east room and lit a fire to make sure everything was safe... Huh?"
At this point, she felt something was wrong even more.
"If he wants to kill the late queen, he has to ensure that the people in the east room will not be awakened by the fire." Lin Yunyan frowned and said what she thought of. This way she could organize her thoughts and give Xu Jian some inspiration. "
Could it be that he knew that sleeping incense was burned inside? He first stunned the people in Dongshoujian, and then came out to attack the people in Dongjijian?
Don't let Li Shao scream because you don't want my mother to hear?
Then he should go to Dongshao to light a fire instead of causing Li Shao to knock over the oil lamp..."
This is very strange.
The more I thought about it, the more I felt something didn't make sense.
Is it because they haven't grasped the true nature of the matter, or is it because the monkey-faced eunuch is not particular about his behavior and sets fires as he pleases? On the contrary, they are deeply disturbed by it and have to find a reasonable way of thinking for the other party here?
Thinking of this, Lin Yunyan couldn't help but shook her head in confusion.
If they think too much in the end, that's really...
"Can it be considered a kind of 'a scholar meets a soldier'?" Lin Yunyan laughed at herself, "We treat him as a scholar, but in fact the monkey-faced eunuch is a soldier?"
After saying that, she heard Xu Jian next to her also laugh.
Somewhat helpless and powerless, after laughing, the two of them started sorting things out again.
I'm looking for answers to old things. I'm not afraid of thinking too much, but I'm afraid of not thinking thoroughly enough.
Xu Jian picked up the teapot and gave Lin Yunyan more tea, gesturing for her to moisten her throat.
He himself took a sip, the warm tea went down his throat, his eyebrows were lowered, looking calm and peaceful under the oil lamp.
Lin Yunyan held the tea cup with both hands and looked at Xu Jian intently.
She couldn't move her eyes away, and she knew very well that it was Xu Jian's stability that kept her eyes fixed on him for a moment.
After getting along for a long time, Lin Yunyan also knew Xu Jian's temperament.
This person is really cold when he is cold, and when he is angry and angry, the whole Jinluan Palace wants to laugh but dare not laugh, holding it in for life, but aside from those external appearances, Xu Jian's mind is calm and upright.
It comes from the many years of teachings of the old master Guo, and also from the hardships he has endured day after day while practicing martial arts since he was a child.
The perseverance deep in his heart enables Xu Jian to quickly put away his panic and get on the right track when encountering unexpected events.
This perseverance not only created Xu Jian, but also deeply influenced Lin Yunyan, making her involuntarily believe that no matter how many hardships and mist they faced, as long as they were together with Xu Jian, the two of them could overcome obstacles.
With Xu Jian by his side, tonight's so many unexpected and puzzling news seemed less confusing.
"What we are thinking about now is not only what we will think about, but also my father-in-law and the Holy Father will think about it in the future." Xu Jian put down the tea cup slowly and spoke in a calm tone, "I was in the imperial study room just now. Time was still too tight. I had some ideas, but I didn't
comprehensive.
Your Majesty, when you have free time, you will naturally think of these things. If you listen more and discuss more, even the three cobblers can gain a lot.
The Holy Father and his father-in-law didn't think of this before. They didn't know that the fire started in Dongci Room. They thought it started in Dongshi Room. People were fainted by the smoke in their sleep. Until mother-in-law came over, they could only hold Nian in his arms.
Young Li Shao..."
Lin Yunyan nodded.
How else to say that the clues are important?
Even the tiniest clue may change the final answer, let alone such critical information as the origin of the fire.
Originally, it would not be so difficult to determine the location of the fire in a fire, but the problem was that there were two barrels of lamp oil stored in the ear room. Although they did not explode, the fire burned more and more fiercely, and the scene was a mess.
It was also because of the two barrels of oil that whether the father accepted it as an accident or the Holy Master believed it was a murder, they all determined that the fire started in Dongshaojian.
Until tonight, this point was overturned by Li Shao's testimony.
Many previous judgments will also be changed accordingly.
"Judging from previous judgments," Lin Yunyan dipped her finger in some water and drew a few strokes on the table, only distinguishing the middle room, the east room, and the east room. "Mother went all the way east, passing through the second room.
A little later.
The fire started a little while ago, and this is the most dangerous place.
She picked up the unconscious Li Shao, took advantage of the fire not blocking the way, and returned the same way, from the east room to the middle room, then out of the palace door, put him down and returned to the fire scene.
But this time, the fire inside was even greater, and Grandma Liao chose to open the window, but she failed, and my mother and the late Empress also missed the opportunity to escape."
Xu Jian looked at the table and said, "My father-in-law mentioned something to me, but he didn't go into detail. I won't know the details until I read the case file tomorrow, but it sounds like your idea makes sense."
Lin Yunyan responded softly and put aside the speculation based on the fire in Dongchao Room: "Now, it's time to think about what my mother did when there was a fire in Dongchao Room."
In other words, Li Shao's exact location when his mother rescued him.
She thought so and asked Xu Jian this way.
Xu Jian thought for a moment and said: "The middle room or the east room."
Lin Yunyan listened to his explanation carefully.
"The Holy One mentioned that the novice guarding Li Shao said that the windows were closed, and the mother-in-law rushed out of the palace door with Li Shao in her arms, and then went back." Xu Jian pointed her finger on the table and said, "In the middle room
If you find someone, just take them out. There is no question about doing so.
In the Toji Room where the fire broke out, it burned first and the fire was the strongest. It makes sense that the mother-in-law picked up Li Shao and turned around and ran out through the middle room, which was still safe.
When in danger, it is human nature to choose the nearest exit.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! If she had made the opposite choice and rushed into the East Room and saw the dazed Queen and the nuns inside, would she still
Shall we turn around again and go through Tojima?"
"No," Lin Yunyan said immediately, immersing herself in that situation, the answer was not difficult to come up with, "If I were her, I would just open the window and throw Li Shao out, and then drag the others.
At that time, running out from the Toji Room, where the fire was the strongest, was simply to seek the distance instead of the near.
In the same way, the place where mother found Li Shao would not be Dongshao Room.
Only when Li Shao was in the East Room or the Middle Room, would his mother choose to carry him out through the door for the first time."
Xu Jian strongly agreed: "For the first time, my mother-in-law had never entered Dongshao Room. She discovered Li Shao first and rescued him in a hurry.
When she returned, she passed through the Dongci Room in the fire. She may have called out to Eunuch Cai, or she may not have cared about it and entered the later room, which was filled with smoke.
Perhaps it was the sleeping incense, perhaps the smoke was inhaled, or the two overlapped. The late empress and the others were either in a coma or in confusion, and the mother-in-law tried her best to wake them up. Mother-in-law went to open the window, and the mother-in-law held the late empress..."
The images of that night became more vivid in my mind.
The thick smoke seemed to have passed through time and swept in, making Lin Yunyan subconsciously cover her mouth and nose with her hands.
Seeing this, Xu Jian moved his chair, leaned closer, and put his arms around Lin Yunyan's shoulders.
This is the pain.
No matter how many jokes or distractions you use, they can only ease that moment. When your thoughts focus on this again, the wound will still be in unbearable pain.
If you have a weak temperament, you will probably not want to think about it. Try to let it go and leave it to someone who is competent and trustworthy to find the answer, so as not to collapse before the truth is revealed.
This kind of "giving up" is also a good choice.
But Xu Jian would not persuade Lin Yunyan like this, nor would he do everything for her, because she could bear it and was more willing to bear it.
The little princess looks soft, but is actually tough.
If the wound wants to heal completely, the carrion must be cut away and reborn.
"I wanted to tell you just now in the imperial study room," Xu Jian's voice was still calm, like a whisper, not intense, but able to calm people's hearts, "The sleeping incense was an 'accident'. We didn't expect that the Holy Spirit would
Uehara didn't think about it either.
Thinking of this today, his guilt for the late empress will be even deeper, and this emotion will continue to spread to Li Shao.
It doesn't seem to be beneficial to us, but we can still risk our lives and survive.
Only by clarifying all the truth and settling the good and the bad can the victims truly move forward.
You are like this, and so is the Holy One."
While talking, Xu Jian held Lin Yunyan's hand and stroked the back of her hand, not letting her block her breathing.
"I'm okay," Lin Yunyan smiled at Xu Jian, "Now that I've thought about the situation that night, I can continue to make judgments. The actions of the monkey-faced eunuch didn't seem to kill Li Shao, nor did they
It’s like wanting to kill the queen first.”
In the former case, Li Shao would not have to go all out, but in the latter case, he should set fire in the east.
The questions were swirling in their minds, and the two of them didn't speak for a long time, racking their brains to find some clues or a glimmer of light among the known clues.
To be continued...
