409、I found something (Part 1)

Jing Wen followed the palace maid to the front of the palace and met the servant from Chang'an Mansion. He claimed that he had found some clues about the palace maid, so Jing Wen naturally had to come over immediately. Then, the servant took out a painting and asked Jing Wen to see it.

"Sir, this is a painting on the palace maid. This painting was already swallowed by her, but we asked our master to recover!" said the constable.

When Jing Wen heard that he was swallowed into his stomach, he couldn't help feeling a little disgusted. But since this painting was not the original painting, it was restored by a master, Jing Wen could also take a look.

"Who is this man?" Jing Wen asked.

The painting on the palace maid's belly is a man, about thirty years old. This man is quite handsome, and obviously a handsome man should be able to attract many ignorant girls. Does this palace maid want to elope? However, even if he is not the lover of the palace maid, he should be a very important person, otherwise he would not have painted a painting of him. However, why was he swallowed into his stomach? Is this a little confused? Is it love? Is it hate? I can't tell.

"It seems that we must first find this man!" Jing Wen said.

"The sea of ​​people is vast, where can we find it!" said the officer from Chang'an Mansion.

"Hmm? I seem to have seen this person!" said a eunuch.

"Where have you seen it?" Jing Wen asked excitedly immediately.

This person is the eunuch who is responsible for leading horses to all the officials who come to court. He actually knows this person.

"Isn't this Du Pushe's housekeeper?" he said.

"Du Ruhui's housekeeper? Oh, why didn't I expect it? No! Come with me to Du Ruhui's house!" Jing Wen said.

Jing Wen thought of an important question, that is, it was only less than twenty hours since the incident. It was only two or three hours from the incident to the time when Jing Wen entered the palace to investigate. At that time, Li Shimin asked everyone to keep it confidential, and the prime ministers should know the seriousness of the matter and would not say much. But why was the other party still so fast? The news spread throughout the palace about Empress Changsun poisoning and murdering Du Ruhui? This speed was too fast, almost incredible. Moreover, under extreme confidentiality, the prime ministers would not talk to their families casually.

However, as the person involved, Du Ruhui naturally had to tell his confidants. In addition to his family, he was his housekeeper. The housekeeper can be said to be the person whom Du Ruhui trusted the most, so there is nothing wrong with Du Ruhui telling the housekeeper about his poisoning. However, Du Ruhui probably didn't know at all. This housekeeper is the real mastermind of the matter, that is, he gave Du Ruhui a poison to Du Ruhui and wanted Du Ruhui to overdraw his energy and die. At that time, no one would suspect that he was the murderer.

"Damn it, Infernal Affairs! Come with me quickly. If you go too late, Du Ruhui will be in danger!" Jing Wen said.

Even the butler can be an undercover agent, so it may be much easier to attack Du Ruhui next. Now that the matter has been revealed, it is difficult to guarantee that the other party will not attack directly.

"Baobabababababa..." Jing Wen and Dugu Xin took Qianniuwei to Du Ruhui's house.

"Bang bang bang!" "Open the door!" "Open the door!"

The matter was urgent. Jing Wen didn't care about any etiquette and just slapped the door hard.

"Who! It's so late, who's here? Don't you know that this is Mr. Du's mansion? If you offend Mr. Du, you will be in trouble!" The people who spoke cursed and opened the door.

"I don't have time to talk nonsense to you. We are here to find your housekeeper under the order of the emperor!" Jing Wen said.

"The Emperor's order?" the servant asked in surprise.

"Stop talking nonsense, where is your housekeeper?" Jing Wen asked.

"The housekeeper is serving the prime minister for midnight snack!" said the servant.

"What? Have a midnight snack? Where are your prime minister?" Jing Wen said angrily.

"Just in the bedroom. You will arrive by three walls!" said the servant.

Jing Wen immediately said to Dugu Xin: "Dugu Xin, please stop Du Ruhui quickly and don't let him eat midnight snack. I'm afraid there is something wrong with midnight snack!"

"OK!"

Dugu Xin quickly climbed up the wall with her light martial arts skills, stepping on the raised part of the wall, and then used her skills again to run from the connecting wall on the wall to Du Ruhui's dormitory.

In the dormitory, the housekeeper was preparing to feed Du Ruhui for midnight snacks.

"Zhao Ye, this is a midnight snack every day. You can eat it!" said the butler.

Du Ruhui had no other doubts, but just picked up a small bowl and a spoon to drink it.

"Swoosh!"

A sound of slashing through the air, and a sleeve arrow flew over.

"Bang!" The bowl in Du Ruhui's hand flew out.

Du Ruhui saw the side where the bowl was flying away, and then found that the soup bowl hit a piece of silver paperweight, and the paperweight made of silver turned black.

"Poisonous?" Du Ruhui said.

The butler saw this and immediately knew that he had been discovered.

"Boom!"

Du Ruhui's butler immediately ran away from the window at the other end of the room, and Dugu Xin could not catch him either.

"Damn it, you run so fast!" Dugu Xin cursed inwardly.

Dugu Xin hurried to chase him.

At this time, Jing Wen also took Qianniuwei to Du Ruhui's dormitory.

"Du Xiang, are you okay?" Jing Wen asked.

"It's okay, what's going on?" Du Ruhui asked.

Jing Wen immediately said: "We found out that your butler had a problem, so come here immediately. This time the poisoning was probably the one that your butler did! Look, the bowl of midnight snack just now may contain highly poisonous arsenic!"

Jing Wen’s chemistry knowledge has not been completely returned to the teacher, so he knew that ancient arsenic actually contained sulfur, so when he encountered silver, it would change color. So, there should be arsenic in the soup that night just now.

"My housekeeper? How is this possible? He has been with me for several years, and has followed me since the Xuanwu Gate Incident! He has been loyal over the past few years and has no problem! But he actually wants to poison me?" Du Ruhui said unbelievably.

"Secret Du, you have fallen into the Infernal Affairs! This housekeeper is a traitor!" Jing Wen said.

"Oh, I don't know what I know, so I almost fell into a trap! The girl went to chase that guy just now, I don't know if she has chased me!" Du Ruhui said.

At this time, Dugu Xin came back and said, "I am not familiar with the environment of the Du Xiang Mansion, so I lost it!"

This butler worked in Du Ruhui's house for several years and naturally became familiar with the road. He and Dugu Xin had similar light skills, so Dugu Xin did not have an advantage. Therefore, in this case, the butler who was familiar with the environment naturally had a great advantage.

"Secret Du, can Qianniuwei search here?" Jing Wen asked.
