Chapter 46 Exploring the Cold Corpse at Night
After a heavy autumn rain, a brilliant rainbow leaps into the sky. Mu Yun worked hard in the mountains for two days and two nights until the black candle flowers bloomed on a moonlit night.
Candle purple-brown thin leaves, lanceolate, peduncle short, corolla white, filaments slender, disc densely hairy. Mu Yun carefully removed the filaments and grinded them into the medicine.
When Li Shuci heard about it, he hurriedly looked at what the situation was, Helian Tao took the antidote pill concocted by Mu Yun, and his face was much better.
Mu Shan and Mu Yun have been practicing martial arts since they were children and can stand it, but He Quan inhaled two tubes of snot, obviously suffering from the wind and cold. "These two days have not been in vain, and if it is one day late, it will be difficult to protect the noble life of the prince. ”
"It's easy to say if you live, so we don't have to say it clearly. Mu Shan was much more silent than Qingge, and being able to say such a long sentence was obviously haunted by Helian Tao's head being chiseled by him that day and pretending to be dizzy.
Mu Yun handed a bowl of freshly boiled soup to He Quan, poured two bowls of ginger soup and drank it with Mu Shan, and asked Xiang Jiu: "His Royal Highness the dignified prince has been lost for several days, and no one is looking for it?"
Xiang Jiu finally managed to get a few people back, and he was sleepy, and when he heard this, he suddenly came to his senses, and they were all lively and not afraid of turning the sky upside down. "Why is no one looking for it, I heard that her sister turned the five watch alleys upside down! I have never seen such a pungent little lady! Hey, this is not the right answer to that nonsense! Where there are women, there are rivers and lakes!"
Li Shuci said: "The general's wife is not early, Helian Taoli is a careless person, and there is only a girl in the huge general's mansion supported by Helian Yu, thinking about it, I know that it is not weak and bulliful." Helian Yu has been practicing martial arts since he was a child, and he is not inferior to men. made a big fuss in Wuchang Alley, I'm afraid it's Mingli's actions. Secretly, I'm only afraid of ......"
Li Shuci did not continue, everyone understood.
"I'll call someone to inquire, guess what?" He Quan finally poured a bowl of bitter medicine into his throat and grinned.
"Said that our Royal Highness, the prince, is romantic, I don't know how many beauties have brought pear blossom crowns, but there is no one who carries home to warm the quilt. He never stayed overnight, no matter how many hours he had, and he always had to go back to his house to sleep. is the closest to the Xue Qian girl of the Qingyu Building and the dust girl of the Ukiyo Building, and she is stuck in the red fragrant and warm jade all day long, and she talks mostly with her hands, and there are no bells and whistles. ”
"This person really can't be hearsay, the real person is in front of him, and he knows what to believe. He Quan peeled a pomegranate, spit out one by one, and forcibly suppressed the medicinal taste in his mouth.
After a little while, Helian Tao finally woke up, his face was gloomy, and when he opened his eyes and recognized the person, he shouted: "Hurry......! Hungry!"
The crowd dispersed, this man!
It was still Qingge's good-tempered cooking porridge, Helian Tao ate two bowls before exhaling comfortably, and finally had time to thank everyone.
glanced at the various people in the room who were staring at him, and scolded this girl in his heart for not being good at embroidering in the yard, what does it mean to have such a thug, his face was silent, and he licked his face and said to Li Shuci: "It's me who is careless." I thought I had got rid of those people, and I just took advantage of the situation when I got into your carriage, but I didn't expect it to affect you. ”
Li Shuci sneered: "It's good that the prince knows." ”
Helian Tao's face gradually improved: "If Miss Li needs help with something, she will spare no effort." ”
"If I could, I hope I don't have anything to do with the prince in the future. ”
No matter how thick-skinned Ren Heliantao is, he can't hang it up. laughed twice, "Can you help me send a message to my sister?"
"Just now you took the antidote, and I let people go. Li Shuci asked again, "Since the prince is ...... There are also people around you who are protected by high-ranking people, what's the matter?"
Helian Tao felt more and more that this girl was very transparent, and she had already thought of the depths, no wonder she was always in a hurry to break off the relationship with him, "I was entangled by some people at that time. Presumably they were well prepared this time. ”
"This poison in the world, called the Ice Lantern Ghost, is extremely rare. Chongnan is afraid that few people can know this. The son of the world should know it in his heart. Li Shuci paused, "I heard that the prince received the post of Sizhi, I want to take someone to see the bodies of the dead in the three bloody cases in Shangjing, I don't know if it's okay?"
Helian Tao was stunned, he had forgotten that he had received an idle position, and the general case could be closed by the government office, but a murder case like this must be tried by the Dali Temple Mansion Cheng himself, and when the case is complicated and needs to be investigated repeatedly, the Si Zhi is responsible for investigating the case, and then it will be handed over to the Fu Cheng. After thinking about it, he said: "Naturally, there is nothing wrong with this, but I am also very curious about the cause of death of those three people." But why is Miss Li so interested in this matter, you ...... Not afraid?"
Helian Tao didn't have to hide that the assassination was aimed at him, Li Shuci had actually determined in her heart that these murders should have nothing to do with Helian Tao, but she had to think of a way to eliminate the doubts in Helian Tao's heart. "Mrs. Liyang...... Do you remember?"
Helian Tao was stunned for a while, "Mrs. Liyang...... Are you talking about the female Fa Zheng appointed by the first emperor, the daughter of Lu Dianzheng, the servant of the Criminal Department who judges cases like a god?"
Li Shuci smiled: "Exactly." ”
Li Shuci rarely showed a smile to Helian Tao, she was dressed very plainly, and her eyes were more and more like ink fountains, like stars and seas, Helian Tao couldn't help but look a little stunned, only to hear Li Shuci continue: "Mrs. Liyang is a stunning genius, it is said that when Lu Dianzheng served as a waiter in the criminal department, many suspicious cases were solved by her for Lord Lu, and the first emperor personally praised and corrected her position. ”
Helian Tao came back to his senses from Li Shuci's eyes and said, "Do you want to emulate Mrs. Liyang to be a famous woman?"
Li Shuci said with a smile: "I just admire Mrs. Liyang's talent and am also interested in these cases, and I don't dare to hope to leave a reputation like her." ”
Helian Tao said with interest: "It's just that you are a deep lady, and you can't often show your head outside, and this is not the time to compare with Mrs. Liyang." ”
Li Shuci said: "I naturally know this, and I don't want to be as famous as Mrs. Liyang, I just want to do something I want to do." Besides, why does the daughter's family have to hide in the backyard and wait to get married and have children? If people can't live freely and freely, no matter how they follow the rules, they are just walking dead. ”
After Helian Tao woke up, he found that he was in a private house, needless to say, this house was naturally run by Li Shuci outside, a weak girl in the back house, not only in the private house outside, but also the girl around her is not simple. He was full of curiosity about Li Shuci, but he didn't want to ask any more questions, nodded and agreed: "It's a trivial matter." ”
Li Shuci observed the look on Helian Tao's face and knew that it was impossible for him to completely dispel the doubts in his heart, but there was no other way at this time. smiled slightly, "Then thank you Shizi for your help." ”
In the dead of night, only half of Yue'er's face was revealed in the sky, and there were a few people standing faintly outside the wall of the Fuxing Division.
Li Shuci guessed correctly, those corpses were indeed not placed in Yizhuang with ordinary corpses, but were specially parked in the special serious case morgue in the government criminal department.
Mu Yun followed behind Li Shuci, looking excited. Coming to see the corpse in the middle of the night, her girl can do it, and said to Jiu: "You're not afraid?"
Li Shuci glanced at Xiang Jiu, who was not dressed in white, and said viciously: "You are dressed so conspicuously, and the corpse also arrested you first." ”
Xiang Jiu was shocked by what she said, pulled his placket and rolled his eyes: "What do you know, I'm a killer with a temperament, how can I be the same as you." Why hasn't that ghost come yet?"
As soon as he finished speaking, he saw two figures flying from the alley. When Helian Tao saw the three of them, he glanced at Xiang Jiu in white robe strangely, and said to Li Shuci: "I'm sorry to be late, my sister has to follow." ”
The figure on the side, who was also wearing a tight night suit, flickered, stood in front of Helian Tao, pulled down the face towel covering his face, and vaguely saw a face that looked five or six points similar to Helian Tao in the moonlight, a heroic beauty. Glancing around, he arched his hand towards Li Shuci with a smile, "I came here below." ”
Li Shuci was amused in her heart, and the people who were not afraid of things had gathered! She also bowed her hand to Helian Yu and said, "Fortunately." ”
The two had met once at the flower party, and they both had a good impression of each other. I heard that my eldest brother and her had this relationship, and suddenly jumped to follow along, and when we met, her eyes were shining, and she slapped Li Shuci on the shoulder, "Sure enough, he is a fellow believer!"
Li Shuci was defenseless, and was slapped back by her, but fortunately, Mu Yun helped him behind.
Helian Tao's face darkened, and he said speechlessly: "Miss Li doesn't know martial arts!"
Helian Yu smiled embarrassedly: "I'm sorry, I'm sorry!"
The morgue is located in the most remote place in the corner of the southwest corner of the government and criminal department, after all, it is different from the usual, there is a special small alley leading to the morgue, walk along the alley, and see four bright white lanterns hanging on the gate from a distance, with a layman on it, emitting a miserable white light.
Mu Yun shuddered, Li Shuci was already a person who had died once, and he was better. The wooden door of the morgue was larger than the normal corner door, and it should be easier to carry the corpse, so he gently pushed it forward to Jiu and said softly, "Locked." ”
Helian Yu stepped forward to take a look, pulled off the thin hairpin on his head, and gently flicked the latch through the gap in the old and rough wooden door
, The door latch slowly slid to the side, and several people gave her a thumbs up and walked in one after another.
The two officials of the night vigil were already dozing off, and they were effortlessly put down by Mu Yun's medicinal powder. There was nothing in the morgue's courtyard except for the extraordinary silence, not even the yellow and decaying grass to be seen, except for a row of three houses on the west side that were lower than normal. There were miserable white lanterns hanging at the door, but this time there were a few bright yellow charms on each lantern.
Xiang Jiu and Helian Tao were bold, taking advantage of the hazy light, looking inside from the window, Helian Tao came over and said to Li Shuci: "There is nothing in the first room, there is a corpse in the second room, and three bodies are placed in the third room, it should be this one." ”
