Episode 6: Yang Caiwei suspects Pan Yue is the murderer
Yang Caiwei saw that her body was well preserved in a crystal ice coffin. While she felt sorry for Shangguan Zhi who died for her, she quickly took out the tools to perform an autopsy. After checking it once, she found no wounds. Finally, she found a little wound on the scalp.
Then Yang Caiwei pulled out a silver needle from her brain. Yang Caiwei guessed that Pan Yue might have killed her on the wedding night. Pan Yue returned at this time, and Yang Caiwei quickly put away her things. Pan Yue came here to wait, but he didn’t expect that she would be the one waiting. Yang Caiwei said that she wanted to help investigate the case.
Although Pan Yue repeatedly emphasized that her death was an accident, Yang Caiwei believed that if it was an accident, he would not have wronged herself. There must be something behind it. Yang Caiwei did not tell Pan Yue what she found out, and privately she was also wondering what Pan Yue wanted to do by going to such great lengths to preserve the body.
The princess sent a letter to Pan Yue, and Yang Caiwei became more and more dissatisfied with him. Yang Caiwei paid for everyone’s dinner out of her own pocket, but in fact she was going there to get clues about the murder by the golden needle.
Yang Caiwei found out about a gold shop and dressed up to go there. A Jiang woke up and found that he had the same orchid knot on his arm as Yang Caiwei, so he immediately went to find someone.
Yang Caiwei went to the gold shop to look for clues, but Pan Yue followed her quietly. Yang Caiwei had to pretend to choose jewelry. Pan Yue picked up a unique Begonia hairpin and helped Yang Caiwei put it on her head. This action scared Yang Caiwei and made her sweat.
Pan Yue knew that Yang Caiwei came here to find clues about the gold hairpin, so she had to take out the evidence. Yang Caiwei decided to check all the gold shops in Heyang and asked Pan Yue to wait in the restaurant first. A Jiang found the waiter of the restaurant yesterday and asked who sent him back yesterday. He learned that it was a young lady who came to the capital.
Yang Caiwei issued a notice offering a large reward, and soon the gold shop came to the two with its own top-quality products. They accidentally learned about Liu Lang, the best goldsmith in Heyang. Coincidentally, Liu Lang passed away last month.
Pan Yue and Yang Caiwei went to Yang Liu Lang’s home. There was only a mother-in-law with poor eyesight left in her home. Yang Caiwei helped her repair the lamp left by Liu Lang and asked about the scene on the day of Liu Lang’s death.
Liu Lang died the day before Pan Yue’s wedding. The mother-in-law said that Liu Lang received a large sum of money and never came back after leaving. This matter was too strange. Yang Caiwei and Pan Yue came to Liu Lang’s tomb. The mother-in-law seemed to be somewhat hostile to Pan Yue. Pan Yue went back and forth to find the coroner.
Yang Caiwei silently comforted the sad mother-in-law. The mother-in-law quietly told her that Liu Lang’s new customer had been to the house. Although the mother-in-law had poor eyesight, she could hear clearly, and his voice was exactly the same as Pan Yue’s. Yang Caiwei was shocked and quickly dug up the grave to examine the body.
Pan Yue came back halfway through the excavation. Pan Yue saw the fear that Yang Caiwei showed subconsciously. Yang Caiwei simply made it clear that she suspected Pan Yue was the murderer of his wife! Pan Yue said that if he was the murderer, it would be impossible to preserve her body. He invited a coroner from the capital, but he was poisoned as soon as he arrived in Heyang yesterday.
When Liu Lang’s grave was dug up, a large amount of silver was found in his body during the autopsy. It was speculated that he was forced to swallow the silver and died.
Liu Lang died unwillingly, and before he died, he left evidence pointing to the murderer, which was the bargaining chip of the Life and Death Square.
A Jiang found Yang Caiwei, but how could a young lady from the capital help him, and how could she tie an orchid knot that only Yang Caiwei could do?
