Chapter 412: The missing person

After listening to Yu Jin's analysis, everyone was suddenly covered in fur.
The murderer is so meticulous and bold, it is beyond expectations.
This is a royal family banquet. The most noble people in the world are here. Who is so bold and bold?
King Yan said that the real culprit was among these people in the palace... Thinking of this, many people couldn't help but fought a cold war.
There seemed to be too many ice basins in the hall.
Yu Jin held a fist against Emperor Jingming: "Father, there are many people in the temple, so we still have to start with this maidservant to determine whether she was instigated by someone to poison her or was accidentally exploited."
Emperor Jingming nodded and said lightly: "Pan Hai, pry me open the mouth of this maidservant."
Pan Hai immediately responded, and with a wave of his hand, the two maidservants dragged the maidservant down.
The two servants belonged to Dongchang people.
Everyone's discoloration changed, only to feel that the atmosphere in the hall was dignified and depressed, and breathing was not smooth.
Yu Jin looked around and said loudly: "Until there is no news, please don't walk around, let alone leave the hall alone."
The atmosphere is getting heavier.
After a long wait, Pan Hai finally returned: "The emperor, after interrogation, the maidservant did not know."
The maidservant did not appear again.
Of course, it is impossible to just use the mouth to interrogate. It is tortured. Those who have used Xing describe it as terrible, and they cannot be brought in to disturb the nobles without special instructions.
Emperor Jingming looked at Yu Jin.
With so many people in the palace, the possibility of the maidservant being instigated by others was ruled out. To find the poisoner was like finding a needle in a haystack. He was very curious about what the son could do.
Yu Jin looked calmly across the crowd: "Today is a family dinner. Although the male and female guests are not separated by screens, the princesses are girls. If a man walks over, it will attract attention, so I think it can be ruled out that the murderer is The possibility of a man, do you have any comments?"
Everyone nodded secretly.
At the beginning of the banquet, the seats are all exquisite. There is a table for the concubine of the woman, a table for the princess who has not been out of the pavilion, and another table for the princess who is out of the pavilion, plus all the princesses and princesses.
And those who walked in this area were all palace servants, and no servants.
In this case, King Yan's analysis is very reasonable, and the murderer must be a woman.
Seeing everyone approving of his words, Yu Jin glanced over the wine tables one by one, and said without hesitation: "There are nine tables in all. If you want to find the murderer, the practical method just now is enough."
The way just now?
Everyone didn't react for a while.
Jiang Si looked at the talking man, her eyes soft.
This is the case with A Jin, who looks bohemian and does whatever he wants, and is always reliable when he really encounters things.
Yu Jin's eyes rolled, and Jiang Si met for a moment, and then continued: "From the first table, you can recall who left the seat before the incident."
At the first table, there was Concubine Xian and others, and there was an empress who immediately said, "I was chatting with my sisters around me at the time. Where should I notice who left my seat?"
Yu Jin smiled and said, "This is easy to handle. You only need to remember that there was no one left."
Everyone was stunned.
This method is indeed excellent.
At a lively occasion, attention is easily distracted. Few people will always pay attention to the movements of a table of people. It is much easier to remember what the people around you are doing.
There is another advantage of this method. Because everyone sits in a circle, then each person is on the right side of the person on the left and the left side of the person on the right, and can be noticed by two people. In this way, even if one person is not paying attention, it will not hurt. .
With Emperor Jingming present, no matter how unwilling in their hearts, the dozens of concubines still cooperated with Yu Jin to recall,
When it was Concubine Xian's turn to speak, she took a deep look at Yu Jin, and said calmly: "At that time, the two people on the left and right were doing nothing in the palace because the palace was out at that time."
Everyone's expressions were suddenly subtle.
Unexpectedly, the first person to be sure to leave the seat at that time turned out to be King Yan's mother and concubine, and Concubine Xian clearly knew that King Yan could not hide it, so she admitted directly.
Yu Jin's complexion didn't change at all, and asked faintly: "Where did the empress go?"
"My palace is going to change clothes."
In this case, changing clothes is a euphemism, but it is actually a show of respect.
Yu Jin asked again: "Why does the empress need to change clothes not long after the banquet?"
When he asked this, everyone looked strange and exchanged their eyes.
King Yan is really upright, so aggressive towards his mother and concubine, and shows no mercy.
Some people are thinking: From this point of view, it is true that the relationship between King Yan and Concubine Xian is not harmonious.
The concubine Xian was embarrassed when asked by her son in full view.
This beast still has the face to ask!
Why does she show respect? It's not because of this crooked animal.
She watched coldly at the two mouths getting hotter and hotter, but she couldn't show it at all. She could only keep drinking tea to suppress the fire. After drinking tea, her belly swelled, of course she wanted to show respect.
"There is some discomfort in the body." Concubine Xian's face was calm and her tone was not half-fired. "The maidservant in the palace and the servant at the dressing office can testify."
Concubine Xian's words were quickly confirmed.
"Does King Yan still have to ask?" Concubine Xian asked lightly.
Yu Jin smiled with a white tooth: "Nothing. My son asked carefully, but he didn't want others to misunderstand the empress. I believe the empress will not blame me?"
Before the concubine Xian could speak, Emperor Jingming said: "Old Qi, you can continue to ask, your mother and concubine is a reasonable person, why can you blame you?"
Concubine Xian smiled and echoed the words of Emperor Jingming: "Your father's words are extremely true, of course this palace will not blame you."
"That's good." Yu Jin replied tepidly and began to inquire about the next table.
The second table was Princess Rongyang and other relatives of the emperor who was in the same age as Emperor Jingming. After the banquet began, Cui Mingyue, who was next to Princess Rongyang, went to her seat.
One person at this table also left before the incident, that is Princess Rongyang.
Seeing everyone looking over, Princess Rongyang raised her eyebrows, and said with a slight impatient: "I was toasting to the emperor."
Emperor Jingming nodded: "Yes, Rong Yang was toasting me and the queen at that time."
The reason why he didn't say it in advance was because he understood that only by taking the lead in cooperating with the old seven, those imperial family members would be honest.
Princess Rongyang cleared the suspicion, Heng Yu gave a glance.
If Yu Jinshi didn't see him, he continued to question the next table.
It didn't take long for the eight-table female guests to ask, and then asked how many people left the seat at that time, but there were people who could confirm what they were doing at that time.
For a while, the investigation seemed to have reached a deadlock.
Princess Rongyang said coldly and enthusiastically: "Brother Emperor, the ministers and sisters are looking at King Yan, this method does not work, so many people have asked me about it, but they didn't find out why."
Another old prince said: "King Yan is young after all. The emperor, let's order the Three Laws Division to cooperate with the clan palace to conduct a thorough investigation."
Emperor Jingming fixedly looked at Yu Jin, his tone was slow: "Old Qi, what do you think?"
Yu Jin smiled: "Father, there are actually some people who haven't been found."
