Finally, after finding the housekeeper.
The two of them were arranged to the living room.
Lin Cheng looked at the indifferent Princess Yunyao and asked curiously: "The princess doesn't seem to be in any discomfort?"
This is her grandfather's mansion.
So many people died in the house, but she didn't feel any grief at all.
"You do not understand."
Yunyao shook her head, but did not explain.
The two waited for a while.
Several middle-aged people walked towards an old man, holding a tiger-headed cane in his hand and walking very eagerly.
After waiting for someone to come in.
After taking a closer look at Yunyao, the old man suddenly knelt down and said, "Duan Yaomin, please pay homage to the princess and wish her long happiness!"
Duan Yao?
Lin Cheng was startled when he heard this name. This man was the imperial concubine's biological father.
Grandpa knelt down to his niece, which was an eye-opener.
Lin Cheng looked at this scene, although he was a little disgusted, it was understandable.
No royal relatives!
The middle-aged people behind did not kneel down, but just performed a warrior salute.
Zhaoyan built his country by force and was relatively tolerant of warriors.
"Everyone, get up."
Princess Yunyao sat and stretched out her hands to ask a few people to get up.
After everyone got up, she stood up and saluted the old man: "My niece has met my grandfather and several uncles."
After the pleasantries.
Everyone was silent, but looked at Lin Cheng.
Lin Cheng stood up and got straight to the point: "Your Majesty specially asked me to come here to investigate this matter and kill the culprit. I wonder if you can let me see the body?"
"good."
The old man nodded and immediately took the lead.
Not long.
In the funeral hall, Lin Cheng saw more than a dozen corpses.
Among them, there are men and women.
Duan Yu, who had disappeared before, was kneeling in front of a corpse and crying bitterly.
Lin Cheng stepped forward to check, and he found that these corpses were all warriors, but their wounds were extremely smooth, as if they had been killed with one blow without any resistance.
Coming to this conclusion, Lin Cheng frowned.
Even the lowest martial artist will at least resist when facing a master, even if he cannot defeat him.
Therefore, it is not easy to kill with one blow.
There are two possibilities.
First, these warriors on the ground are willing to be killed in one blow. Secondly, the person who took action was extremely skilled in martial arts and could kill the person with one blow without waiting for them to react.
Obviously, the first one is probably ridiculous.
Lin Cheng looked at the Duan family behind him and asked, "What level of realm were they in when they were alive? Where did they die?"
"My eldest brother is in the first-rate realm, and the others are second-rate and third-rate respectively."
A middle-aged man with a long beard wearing a green shirt and a white gauze stood up. He seemed to recall for a moment before saying, "They all died in the east courtyard."
As soon as these words came out.
As if everyone was reminded of the scene at that time, they burst into tears again.
Lin Cheng felt something was not right.
According to what the other party said, these people died in a concentrated manner, and they were fatal in one blow.
This is not like the tactics of the Eighteen Pingyun Thieves.
If the Eighteen Thieves had taken action, the family in this section would have been destroyed long ago. How could only the people from the east courtyard be killed?
Think of this.
Lin Cheng secretly used the Purple Qi Donglai Gong and injected a ray of true energy into the corpse.
Then, he inspected all the bodies in turn.
Poison!
Purple Qi Donglai Zhenqi can also be regarded as superior Zhenqi. Even if it is a corpse, you can check all the meridians in its body.
And the dead bodies on the ground all have a strange poison in their bodies.
Thinking of this, Lin Cheng took out a silver needle from his sleeve and quickly pricked the body several times. Under the gaze of everyone, the silver needle turned pitch black.
"Poisoned?"
Princess Yunyao frowned when she saw this.
"This is impossible!"
When Mr. Duan saw this scene, he felt as if he had seen a ghost. He pointed at the silver needle and said, "How could my eldest son be poisoned? They were obviously killed."

After the system prompts, Lin Cheng stood up and explained: "Uncle Duan is a first-class master. If he wants to kill with one blow, the murderer must be at least first-class. But if he is really first-class, why does he need to poison?"
As soon as this statement came out.
Everyone suddenly came over.
Lin Cheng continued to ask: "Did the Duan family lose any important treasures?"
"No."
Old Master Duan shook his head, he was in charge of all the important treasures in the house.
"That's weird."
Lin Cheng touched his nose and asked doubtfully: "Since the other party is not interested in making money, why did he deliberately plan to poison and kill people? Isn't he a lunatic?"
Immediately afterwards.
Lin Cheng remembered the system prompts and found the spy.
This shows that the tragedy in Duan Mansion must have been a result of internal and external cooperation. The spies secretly poisoned the house, and then outsiders broke into the east courtyard to kill people.
How could such a calculation be done by a madman?
"Find all the living people in the east courtyard." Lin Cheng ordered the old man, and explained: "Since it was poisoning and the poison poisoned so many people, there must be a mole cooperating."
"Quick, find someone."
The old man gave an order.
Not long after, eight servants were brought over by the nurse.
"Most of the people in the east courtyard are dead, and only eight of them are still alive." The middle-aged man in blue shirt pointed at a few people, "I wonder if there is a mole among them?"
Lin Cheng walked up to a few people.
"But you poisoned me?"
He asked each one one by one.
"no."
"no."
When Lin Cheng came to a young woman, he still asked: "But was it the poison you administered?"
"not me!"
The young woman denied it to everyone in front of her.
[Mission completed, reward 100 destiny coins]
The system rang.
Lin Cheng looked at the young woman in front of him, but did not reveal anything. After he finished asking questions one by one, he said, "There is no spy inside. I just guessed wrong."
The Duan family shook their heads and said nothing.
In their opinion, the young man in front of them was only stronger. As for reasoning and solving crimes, how could he be better than a professional police officer?
Now that I know someone poisoned me.
The Duan family will naturally invite top-notch head catchers to track down all the moles and spies.
Lin Cheng stood aside and analyzed quickly in his mind.
Why didn't this female spy leave? If such a big thing happened, shouldn't he take the money and run away? Why stay here?
Could it be that... they didn't find what they wanted?
Thinking of this, Lin Cheng felt confident.
Since the thing has not been found, the crime will inevitably be committed.
He only needs to keep an eye on the young woman, and when she commits another crime, he can catch the real person behind the scenes, but it must be inseparable from the Hepingyun Shiba Thief.
Only by finding the person behind the scenes can he find the hiding place of the Eighteen Thieves.
Before everyone could slow down.
A servant hurried over and shouted: "Someone is coming from the palace, someone is coming from the palace, they have arrested the real culprit."
Hear the words.
Lin Cheng was startled, then looked at Yunyao.
Both of them looked confused.
"Walk!"
Hearing that the real murderer had been apprehended, Mr. Duan quickly took people out.
Lin Cheng and the other two slowly followed behind.
"Why did they come so fast?" Yun Yao was a little puzzled. She and Lin Cheng came all the way. They had just rested when the imperial guards and imperial guards sent by the palace captured the real culprit.
This is ridiculous.
