This is the most difficult question to reach a conclusion on
After all, there is no way to identify fragrance except to confirm it by smelling it yourself.
Even if two people really smell the same fragrance, it will be difficult to identify them because they use different words to describe it.
Furthermore, the fragrance is difficult to describe in words.
As for the three kinds of strange fragrances that Chen Yutian just listed, he himself has smelled one of them.
This makes it even more difficult to judge.
Chen Yutian shook his head slightly and decided not to think about this problem for now.
Yuan Lin continued to tell him about the crime scene.
"Compared to His Highness the Second Prince, His Highness the First Prince's death was much more miserable. After all, he fell off a cliff and died, and his body was almost beyond recognition."
Chen Yutian listened carefully.
Although most of this was already written clearly in the dossier, he didn't mind hearing it again.
According to the records, the eldest prince indeed slipped and fell off a cliff and died.
Judging from the contents of the corpse contained in the file, the reaction on the corpse is indeed basically the same as that of a person who fell off a cliff and died.
According to the description of the secret guard who saw him at that time, the eldest prince and the second prince at that time also suddenly rushed towards the steep cliff.
This reaction was exactly the same as that of the second prince.
However, the eldest prince did not have symptoms such as fear of heights, so his behavior was considered normal.
But the two princes suddenly rushed in a certain direction, which always made Chen Yutian a little concerned.
In some ways, their actions appear purposeful.
It was as if he suddenly saw something.
It's still something that attracts their attention.
But what could it be?
Chen Yutian thought to himself, but heard Yuan Lin say: "I just arrived at the scene and smelled another scent."
Chen Yutian's expression changed, "Huh?"
Yuan Lin knew what he was thinking, so he added: "It is exactly the same as the fragrance I smelled at the death scene of the second prince."
Chen Yutian touched his chin, with a meaningful smile on his face.
Both sites have the same scent.
This is very interesting!
Looking at his appearance, Yuan Lin smiled and said, "It seems that Master Chen has also discovered it... But we haven't found out what exactly is emitting this strange smell."
Chen Yutian nodded and said nothing.
Yuan Lin didn't pay attention and continued to describe the situation at the crime scene.
But what he said next was almost the same as what was recorded in the dossier.
Chen Yutian listened to his story quietly and pondered slightly.
"From the records in the file, it seems that there are no traces left by the second person whether it is the murder scene of the eldest prince or the murder scene of the second prince."
Yuan Lin also frowned slightly and said: "I also find this matter quite strange. Judging from the scene, there is indeed no trace left by the second person. From the whole scene, it seems that the two princes really happened. It’s like an accident.”
Chen Yutian raised his eyebrows slightly, "Oh? Doesn't Taigong think this is a real accident?"
Yuan Lin smiled and said: "Master Chen is joking. If I really believe that it was an accident, then I don't need to continue to hold on to these two cases."
"Besides, what if two accidents happen at the same time?"
Chen Yutian was silent.
Although the possibility mentioned by Yuan Lin is indeed very small, it is still possible after all.
However, like Yuan Lin, he didn't believe it was an accident.
Although there were no traces of the murderer at the scene, the autopsy results of the two princes were basically the same as the physical manifestations at the time of the accident. It is certain that they did die due to similar accidents.
But was it an accident or a man-made accident?
It's not certain yet.
Although he still doesn't know what method the murderer used to create this suspected accidental crime scene.
But he believed that as long as it was a technique, there might not be any flaws.
There is no flawless criminal method in this world.
When Chen Yutian returned to the temporary palace in Jiulong Mansion again, he already had two more files in his hands.
Naturally, he brought this back from Yuan Lin.
Time passed slowly.
Chen Yutian sat on a high-backed chair, quietly waiting for Gongsun and Xue Tianhan to read the files.
After a while, Xue Tianhan handed the file in his hand to Ling Miaoyin.
The three girls immediately came together.
Chen Yutian looked at Gongsun and Xue Tianhan and said with a smile, "What do you think of these two cases?"
Gongsun shook his head and said: "As a prisoner, it is difficult for me to make a truly accurate judgment before seeing the body. And according to the records in this file, the biggest doubt is the testimony of the eyewitnesses."
"According to the testimony of eyewitnesses, when the accident happened, the two princes suddenly rushed towards the place where the accident happened. This is very strange."
Xue Tianhan also nodded slightly: "Yes, there is indeed a problem."
Chen Yutian also nodded slightly and said with a smile: "This is indeed a doubtful point, but these are not the only doubtful points. After talking with Tai Gong, I found that there are two more doubtful points in this case."
As he spoke, he told everyone about the drowning of the second prince when he was a child and the discovery of the same fragrance at the two places.
Regarding the matter of the second prince, Chen Yutian made a special trip to visit the Xiang Concubine before returning.
According to the information provided by Concubine Xiang, the second prince almost died when he drowned when he was young, so he had a great psychological shadow on water.
Especially within two months after falling into the water, he almost didn't dare to enter the bathtub.
Gongsun frowned slightly, "It is indeed strange for a person who drowned when he was young to take the initiative to approach the water!"
Xue Tianhan nodded and said: "Indeed, if what the Xiang Concubine said is true, under normal circumstances, it is absolutely impossible for the second prince to take the initiative to approach rivers, lakes and seas."
"This is a bit abnormal." Xuan Xi nodded after reading the file.
Chen Yutian smiled and said: "It's not just abnormal, he is completely different."
Hearing this, Gongsun and Xue Tianhan's eyes lit up! !
The former said: "The meaning behind your words..."
Chen Yutian shook his head slightly and said: "I don't mean anything. This is just a possible speculation I made without any evidence or clues. As you said, before seeing the body, it is true that It’s hard to make an accurate judgment.”
Gongsun smiled and said: "Since then, it seems that the most urgent task is to see the bodies of the two princes first."
Chen Yutian nodded slightly and said, "Yes. After all, those are their last words left in this world."
Xue Tianhan said nothing.
He never liked going to where the bodies were kept.
Even if that place is located inside the Barbarian King's Palace.
…
…
The scorching sun was in the sky, scorching the earth and baking the sky.
The space between heaven and earth is like a steamer, and all living beings are afraid to avoid it.
A figure walked aimlessly in this scorching world, walking on the path in the back garden of the palace.
The scorching sun hit her body directly, making her sweat profusely.
But she didn't realize it.
It was as if the troubles in my heart had already surpassed the torture my body was suffering at the moment.
She needed to relax, otherwise she would have been overwhelmed by the worries in her heart.
So she came here.
But this doesn't seem to have any effect.
Her brows were still furrowed and her worries were still there.
"It seems that when a person is in extreme trouble, even if he wants to divert his attention, it is difficult to do so."
She smiled slowly and bitterly.
She was annoyed.
Because she didn't know what to do next.
I don't know how I should deal with the cunning national master next.
She felt that she was no match for the other party.
After all, she is just a young princess who has not experienced much.
She became more and more frightened.
But she couldn't be afraid.
Because she is the ninth princess of the Man Kingdom and the daughter of Concubine Ling.
"If even I am afraid of facing the Imperial Master, then what else can I do to clear my mother-in-law's name? Prove her innocence?"
She gritted her teeth, her eyes showing determination.
Just then, she heard voices.
The voice was not loud, and the distance seemed far away. She only heard a few brief words, but the speaker's voice made her somewhat familiar.
She seemed to have heard this voice there.
But I can't be sure.
After standing there and pondering for a moment, she decided to go find out.
Following the direction from which the sound came, she quickly came to a rockery. Behind the rockery, the voice came out clearly.
"Don't worry, sir. The brothers in the Leng Palace have already taken care of everything. They are being kept so that those Central Plains people can't find out anything."
Lang Yue's expression changed.
She suddenly remembered that she had heard this sound there.
That was before the fire in the Cold Palace happened, when he pretended to be a chamberlain and entered the Cold Palace.
The guard commander who stopped her halfway was the owner of this voice.
With curiosity and complexity, she quietly took a look at the scene on the other side of the mountain through the hole in the rockery, and sure enough she saw the guard commander who had stopped her at the entrance of Leng Palace.
He was currently facing away from the rockery and talking to someone.
Because his body almost blocked this person's figure. So Lang Yue didn't see clearly the appearance of the person he was talking to.
And... the moment her eyes fell on that person, a cold and stern voice suddenly sounded: "Who is it?"
The next moment, a vast internal force burst out! !
Lang Yue knew that he had been discovered, so he quickly used his inner strength of the spirit fox clan to escape.
The moment her figure left, a dark figure wearing a bamboo hat suddenly appeared.
Lang Yue ran out a long way in one breath.
She stopped when she realized that no one was chasing her.
"What a dangerous situation. Fortunately, I escaped in time..."
She patted her heaving chest gently.
The words of the commander of the guards that were the only words he had just heard were recalled in his mind.
Then she couldn't help but change her expression.
"Could it be that……"
A terrible fact occurred to her.
