Chapter 98 Stewed Eggs
On the side, Tangyuan, who was eating fried rice with a bowl in his arms, said: "Slap fried rice."
Liu Yuan said "Oh" and muttered, "The name is a little weird." Then he looked at the golden fried rice on the table with distinct grains.
The salty aroma in the air was so strong and alluring that Liu Yuan and several of the servants couldn't wait to get a portion of slap-fried rice and stewed eggs and found a table to sit down at.
Being interrupted by Liu Yuan, Tangyuan put the spoonful of stewed eggs into his mouth. The soft and tender stewed eggs were like tofu. With a slight force on the tip of his tongue, they broke into pieces and slid from the tip of the tongue into the depth of the throat.
The aroma of egg filled the whole mouth, and I couldn't help but squint my eyes while eating the glutinous rice balls.
Liu Yuan and others in that compartment were also looking at the bowl of almost "perfect" stewed eggs in front of them. The egg surface was as flat and smooth as a mirror, with a circle of sauce and sesame oil poured on top, and two or three sprinkles in the middle.
If you order chopped green onion, your index finger will move.
"This stewed egg is good," Liu Yuan couldn't help but sigh when he saw it. "It's better than my mother's stew! My mother's stewed egg has watery soup and holes in the egg noodles."
Wen Mingtang said: "This stewed egg looks simple, but there are instructions on how much water to add, warm water, hot water or boiling water, skimming, and how long to simmer."
"It turns out that no matter how simple it is, it's so difficult to make it well!" Liu Yuan took a spoonful of slap fried rice and said "good", then looked at the dumplings who were eating the fried rice seriously and looked at Wen Mingtang.
He winked.
Wen Mingtang received Liu Yuan's look and shook his head at him.
Liu Yuan was extremely disappointed: Is the confession of this little girl Tangyuan still so outrageous?
Thinking about it like this, I could only sigh helplessly, and then started chatting with a few guards while eating.
"The person's identity must be confirmed. Look at his slender fingers. He has not done any heavy work. The calluses left by menial work mean that even if he is not born into a wealthy family, he should be considered a person who does not do menial work." Liu Yuan said to several servants.
Wen Mingtang was idle on the side, listening to them talking about the case behind the counter: Are they talking about the "painted-skinned monster" at the entrance of the alley? It seemed that the ghost-like makeup on the face had been wiped off.
"The person must have fought with someone before he died. There were scratch marks on his arms and large bruises on his chest. The person who fought with him must not be a weakling, someone who would hit him directly with his fists. He would not
She is a woman, and she is a man, and she is a man who is stronger than him..." As several officers were talking, Tangyuan beside them suddenly interrupted them, "Why can't it be a man who can directly hit you with his fists?
woman?"
The interrupted officer said casually: "Have you ever seen a woman fight with her fists? Don't they usually pull their hair or something?"
Tangyuan choked at the officer's words. When Wen Mingtang saw this, he said: "Not necessarily! Liang, the female general of Ganzhiwei, uses her fists."
Liu Yuantong, the policeman: "..."
Wen Mingtang added: "And General Liang is extremely skilled. She can defeat four or five cadres and guards!"
Liu Yuantong, the policeman: "..."
Is General Liang an ordinary woman?
After successfully silencing the officer Liu Yuantong, Tangyuan happily glanced at Wen Mingtang who had "revenged her exit". Wen Mingtang reached out and touched Tangyuan's hair and smiled. Just as he was about to speak, he heard a voice from outside.
"In a moment, someone will ask General Liang what she was doing when this person died." Lin Fei walked in, followed by Zhao You who couldn't help but nod.
Glancing at Wen Mingtang who paused for a moment, Lin Fei added, "It sounds like she is quite suspicious."
Wen Mingtang: "..."
Zhao You, who followed Lin Fei in, sighed: "I can't guarantee it! After all, when this man died, there was a woman present, and General Liang was a woman."
That ghost face makeup does not require any makeup skills. Naturally, it cannot be proven whether the person who painted the makeup is a man or a woman.
But...how did Lin Shaoqing know that a woman was present when the man died?
Lin Fei walked to the stage, took fried rice and stewed eggs, walked over to Liu Yuan and others and sat down.
It's rare to be so "approachable" on the mountain peak. It can be seen with the naked eye that the expressions of the few guards froze, and even their eating movements became rigid.
Lin Fei was eating, and before performing the ritual of "eating without saying a word", he said again: "When he fights with others, he pretends not to have any hair on his body."
No trace! When everyone heard this, they immediately looked at each other, and their expressions became subtle: That is so exciting!
After Lin Fei said this, he continued to eat with his head down. Liu Yuan, who did not have the "eat without speaking" eating ritual, heard this, but couldn't help but said: "So, I have thought of a very possible guess."
One of the guards thought for a moment and said, "Then he had a good life. Could it be that he was spending time with some woman who shouldn't be touched, so he didn't wear any clothes, and then the woman's husband or lover rushed in and beat him up or something?"
"
This guess is quite reasonable, and even the fist scars on the deceased's body can be explained.
Can……
"Why did Lin Shaoqing conclude that the man was naked?" Liu Yuan looked at Lin Fei who was eating in confusion.
Lin Fei glanced at him but said nothing. It seemed that he was going to practice the "eating ritual" to the end, but his eyes flicked to Wen Mingtang, who was sitting behind the counter and watching the fun, nodding his head.
After Liu Yuan caught this glance, he immediately understood. He quickly turned to Wen Mingtang, who was nodding, and asked eagerly: "Why is Master Wen nodding? Do you know why that man is naked?"
Wen Mingtang glanced at Lin Fei, who was lowering his head to eat, and then looked at Liu Yuan, who was looking at him. He was silent and said, "I think what Brother Chai speculated is very likely to be true." The girl said and raised her hand.
He pointed at his arm and said, "The scratch on the arm you mentioned is irrefutable evidence that he was naked at that time."
"Why?" Liu Yuan didn't understand, so he continued to ask.
Wen Mingtang glanced at Liu Yuan and saw Tang Yuan getting up after eating, so he waved to Tang Yuan and motioned for her to come over.
Tangyuan said "Oh" and walked towards Wen Mingtang. When he arrived in front of Wen Mingtang, he saw Wen Mingtang suddenly reached out and grabbed her by the skirt of her clothes, grabbing her in front of him.
"If I wanted to hit someone, I would have subconsciously grabbed her by the skirt of her clothes and brought her to me." Wen Mingtang let go of Tang Yuan's clothes, rubbed his hands and said, "It's easier this way!"
"It would be a bit inconvenient to grab the arm without grabbing the lapel. However, if the person was not wearing clothes at the time and had no lapel to grab, he would have no choice but to grab the arm." Wen Mingtang said.
After hearing this sentence, everyone suddenly came back to their senses. One of them even slapped his forehead and said: "No wonder there is a footprint wound on this man's back. I guess the attacker rushed in and kicked this man in the back with his first kick."
, kicked the man to the ground, and then without waiting for the man to react, he reached out and grabbed the man's arm to pull him up, and then punched him in the chest. This can also explain why the man's back
There is only one footprint, but the chest is full of punch wounds."
From this point of view, everything makes sense.
"So, it was most likely that there was a woman present at that time?" Liu Yuan rubbed his chin and said, "Look up what this person's name is. Maybe you will gain something from the emotional entanglement in the past."
