79_79301 When she went to Yizhuang for an autopsy that day, Twilight knew that the old man was an accomplice in the case, and she did not expose it at that time, but stayed until this time, so that he could tell the main messenger in public! On the day of the post-mortem in Yizhuang, she was still waiting for the wooden box of Zhenfeng County, the evidence was not complete, even if she exposed the old man on the spot, he would only be taken away by Cao Yamen for interrogation, and then it would be just a number of people who were killed.

She didn't say it that day just to let him live to this day, she judged the case in public, and made the murderer speechless.

Before the old man came back to his senses, Yuan Xiu picked up the person with his clothes, "Say!" Who instructed you? ”

The old man trembled like a leaf in the wind, and he was speechless.

Yuan Xiu was impatient to wait for him to argue, laughed angrily, and went out with the person. The wind is like a knife, the remnant snow is blowing on the face, the old man does not touch the ground, only to feel the sound of the wind in his ears, as if he heard the long hissing of the horse, the winter sun is cold, and the dry treetops shine in the light, and it is like a knife.

At the door of the torture Cao, Yuan Xiu threw the person under the green steps and shouted, "Someone! ”

When the soldiers heard the order, they lined up at the foot of the green steps, carrying a long knife at their waists, and their eyes were fierce.

"This person will kill people and kill people in conjunction with the stolen officials, and it will be difficult to find out the whereabouts of the pension and silver in the army! You will immediately tie up his family and send him to the northwest outside the gate! If you meet Hu people, you can't save each other! Yuan Xiu left the person, turned around and went back.

The old man was stunned, sat down and looked at Yuan Xiu, and saw that the man was wearing a cold sun on his shoulders, the silver armor was dazzling, and his back was resolute.

Yuan Xiu is known as the god of war, he went to the border for ten years, and he was not stained with the habit of being a gentleman. At this time, the sound of the knife was cut off, and the long knife held his head in front and back, left and right, as long as he wiped it together, his head would fly, and blood would be splattered on the long street!

Military orders are not child's play, and this is no joke.

"Hou Hou ......" The old man didn't dare to tremble, for fear that he would wipe the blade of his neck with a shake.

"At the end of the year before last, Wuhu knocked on the pass, and 50,000 soldiers at the border pass died to protect the people of the country's homeland. Yuan Xiu flicked his sleeves and made a decision.

A pro-soldier tugged at the old man's official robe, took a closer look, and sneered: "Torture Cao Gong!" ”

One person looked back and asked the criminal Cao servant: "This person is serving in the criminal Cao, where does his family live?" Lead the way! ”

How dare the criminal Cao Ya serve offend Yuan Xiu's personal soldiers? Mo said that he was sending this old man's family to Guanwai, Yuan Xiu just said that he wanted to send the people of the whole city outside the city to the sword of the Hu people, and no one dared to speak. The officials nodded their heads, smiled, and led the way.

The old man was paralyzed in his legs and feet, and he was set up left and right, and he dragged away!

"Master Hou! Master Hou! "The old soldier howled all the way, kicked off the official boots, the Northwest Army's soldiers killed the enemy outside the pass to suppress bandits, used to have a set of ruthless means to treat the enemy soldiers, two pro-soldiers saw that the old man kicked off the official boots, simply stepped on the official boots together, turned the person over and dragged away, the person's toes dragged on the ground, the bluestone road cut people, only walked half a street, and the toes dragged out the blood!

The old man was in a cold sweat in pain, and he couldn't hold it until he was dragged across the corner, and shouted in a trembling voice: "I said! I say! ”

The soldiers ignored it, dragged the people and turned the corner, the old man turned pale and shouted in fear: "I say! Master Hou! Master Hou—"

"Master Hou has an order, drag people back!" A personal soldier walked at the end, turned the corner and looked at the torture Cao Yamen, and when he saw Yuan Xiu walking out, he gave an order.

The two soldiers dragged the person back again, and when they dragged the person back to the door of the torture Cao, the old man's face was as white as paper, and the blood marks on the bluestone street were dazzling.

A personal soldier put a knife on the old man's neck and asked, "General, will this person's family still be sent out of the border gate?" ”

"And tie it up!" When Yuan Xiu took the hand, he took a deep look at the pro-soldier, the pro-soldier understood, and when he collected the knife, he wiped it along the neck of the old man, and the old man only felt that his neck was cold and hot, he didn't dare to touch it with his hand, only to see the pro-soldier holding the knife in his hand, and the blood beads on the knife fell to the ground, silent, and cold.

The old man shook it, and his body was hot and humid, staining the green steps at the door of the torture Cao.

Yuan Xiu didn't seem to smell the pee, and Ying's eyebrows didn't wrinkle, and he lifted the person up and went back to the lobby.

The people who were fine when they were just taken out came back were soaked in blood in front of their collars and socks, and there was a bad smell in their crotch, and all the officials held their breath and showed disgust.

"Say!" Yuan Xiu said coldly.

"I say! I say! The old man's lips turned white, and he said in a trembling voice, "That man...... That person should be from Lord Hu's house! ”

"Hu?" Yuan Xiu frowned, turned around, and looked at Hu Wenru at a glance!

There are a few people surnamed Hu among the civil and military officials, but Duqing said that there are father's henchmen in the list of corrupt officials, and the Hu who is said will have no one else except Hu Wenru!

Yuan Xiangguo looked back at Hu Wenru, and when the officials saw it, they all looked sideways, Hu Wenru was shocked and reprimanded angrily: "Presumptuous! is just a fool, and he dares to spew blood and slander his own officials! ”

"Which of his sentences slandered Master Hu?" Twilight Qing looked at Hu Wenru and said lightly, "He only said that the person was from Lord Hu's mansion, but he didn't name and say who it was." ”

Hu Wenru's angry face did not go, and his surprise was revealed. Others say that it is him, but he can still deny it, and he has exposed his feet, how can he justify himself?

"What the lower official said is true!" The old man said in a trembling voice, "That person is indeed alive, but when he left, the lower official saw that the purse he used was embroidered with the family crest of Lord Hu's mansion. ”

No one could hear the situation, but Twilight knew it was true. When people recall an event, they will choose the most impressive thing to say, so the listener will often feel that there is no beginning and no end, but this just means that the person is telling the truth, and only the lies made up in advance will be said from the beginning to the end, and every sentence will be missed.

"When did that man find you?" Twilight asked.

The old man thought for a while before he said, "On the tenth day of the first month." ”

"Why do you remember Qing?"

"That evening, when I was on a business trip, the official was going back to his home in the outer city, and when he passed by the West Street wine shop, he was pulled in by a small servant and said that he wanted to invite him to eat and drink. Many people in this Shengjing City are suspicious of bad luck, but if someone invites the lower officials to eat and drink, it must be related to the case. The little guy was fresh-faced, dressed in ordinary clothes, and he couldn't tell which house it was, and when the lower official was pulled into the wine shop, he thought about what case he had recently had, so he remembered the days. ”

"Which liquor store?"

"Drunken Taoxian Restaurant in the west of the city."

"Lobby or private room?"

"Elegant room! Belch...... The easternmost room on the second floor. The old man thought that Twilight was going to ask which room in the next sentence, so he answered them all.

Twilight's expression was indifferent, and she asked, "What did you say?" ”

The old man thought for a while before he said: "It's just chatting, that little guy is talking around, only persuading wine, but not saying what he wants." Xia Guan knew that there was no wine drunk in vain in the world, and this person must have something to say, so he didn't dare to get too drunk, and when he was a little drunk, he said that he couldn't drink anymore, and he would be confused if he drank again. The little guy didn't persuade him again, saying that he had acquaintances in the rivers and lakes, and this person had a good ability to kill people with a flying needle, and he had committed countless crimes, and the government could not find out the cause of death. Xia Guan said that it was a lack of eyesight, and the flying needle entered the body, even if there was a small blood spot, it could be seen if you looked closely. The little guy was a little surprised when he heard it, praised the lower official a few words, took out a lot of silver, and said that he also asked the lower official to make a good move, how could he not detect it, and the lower official said that after the killing, he turned the person over, and the purple spot in front of the person was dead and would cover the blood spot, which was difficult to see. ”

He served in Xingcao for half his life, and he had a lot of dealings with the little guys in the official mansion, most of them were the children of Jingzhong who hurt people, and sent the little guys to ask how to cover up, even the personal girls of the official family also came to ask him secretly, and once a girl came to ask how to get some scars on the body, which looked like they were injured. Those dirty things in the courtyard of the deep house, he has not seen them in his life, so the little guy invited him to eat and drink, and he knew that these things were again, and the little guy bragged that he knew the master of flying needle killing people on the rivers and lakes, and he knew in his heart that the matter he wanted to ask must be related to this matter.

"How much silver did he give you?"

"One hundred taels!"

Although he is an official, his age is low, and he is serving in Xingcao, which is the highest position in Daxing, but his annual salary is only ten taels of silver. Those little servants in the official mansion did a good job, and the master was happy and rewarded more than ten taels of silver. The errand of the servant is already despised by people, and the young man is so meager that his colleagues in the yamen look down on him! Relying on this little bit of silver in Shengjing City, how can you feed a large family? Fortunately, there is no shortage of gentlemen in Shengjing City, and there is no shortage of dirty things in the courtyard of the deep house.

This kind of thing, Twilight Qing often encountered when she was at home in Gushui County, but she and her father were both people who refused to accept this money, and as time went by, it was inevitable that some people felt that their father and daughter did not know how to lift, but because the successive Gushui Zhixian County had to rely on their father and daughter to judge the case and conduct the autopsy to get the official reputation, so although they had offended people in those years, their lives were still peaceful.

Until I encountered the case of the Shen Mansion......

Thinking of Shen's house, Twilight Qing remembered that Shen Wenyu had arrived in Shengjing, and last time I heard those official ladies at the poetry meeting of the Xiangfu Courtyard that Shen Wenyu was sick when she arrived in Shengjing, so she said that she was sick and did not come to the poetry meeting. She doesn't know if she is really sick or false, but with her understanding of this Miss Shen, this person is quite calculating, and with her thoughts, it is more meaningful to say that she is sick and does not come to poetry that day. I heard that when she returned to Beijing, the yen repaired her, which is probably the reason why she avoided it. This Miss Shen is a low-key person, if she doesn't make a sound, she is already a blockbuster, she was like this in the Shen Mansion in Gushui County, everyone outside thinks she is a weak medicine jar, and as soon as she makes a move, it is the life of the Liu family's mother and son, and the internal and external power of the Shen Mansion. This time, as soon as she arrived in Shengjing, she was rescued by Yuan Xiu, I don't know how many official ladies hated this matter, she has become a thorn in the side of Shengjing's daughter who has not left the pavilion, and naturally will avoid the poetry meeting run by Yuan Xiu.

Twilight Qing and Shen Wenyu still have old grievances that have not yet been resolved, but she has been busy recently, not only has three cases to investigate, but also has to find an opportunity to meet An He, the head of Shengjing Palace, to find out her father's case, and she is now dressed as a man, leading the position of Jiangbei Naval Governor, and she will go to the city to train troops in three months, so she has no time to pay attention to Shen Wenyu for the time being.

But Twilight believes that with this Miss Shen's scheming methods, as long as they are in Shengjing together, there will always be a day when they will see each other.

"You just said, you saw the purse he used was embroidered with the family crest of Hu Fu?" Twilight asked the old man again.

The old man nodded, "Exactly!" The little guy was dressed ordinarily, and he couldn't tell which house it was, but when he took out the hundred taels of silver from the purse, the lower official saw that the purse was embroidered with the family crest of Lord Hu's mansion, and a Hu character was embroidered on the corner of the purse. ”

The official eunuchs in Shengjing City, the robes of the girls are embroidered with the family crest of the house, so it is convenient to go out and do things. The shopkeeper of the shop in the city is used to looking at these, and he will speak which family he sees, and as time goes by, as long as it is not an errand to hide people's eyes, the girls will wear the clothes of the house to go out to do errands.

The little guy in Hufu asked about murder, this kind of errand is not seen, he was wearing ordinary clothes that day, but he changed his clothes but forgot to change his purse, he saw the purse, recognized it as a person from Hufu, but he didn't say much.

"Xiaguan...... Xia Guan didn't know that Hu Fu was going to kill the magistrate of Fengxian County, and he was really greedy for money, so he became this accomplice! "The old man said, he didn't lie about this, he just took the money to give people an idea, those secrets of the eunuchs, he never asked much, until the morning of the next day of the Shangyuan Festival, when he went to the prison to conduct an autopsy, he found that the dead person was the magistrate of Fengxian County, at that time he knew that he was on the thief ship of the two embezzlement cases in the army, and he could only help hide it if he didn't want to lose his life, but he didn't expect to be planted on a teenager.

The old man quietly looked at the look of the twilight green, it is difficult to get out of the poor family, and it is even more difficult to make a head, the Tang family has been passed down for more than ten generations, but this young man is young and has real skills! This person's heart is as careful as a hair, and he can uncover a big case in one fell swoop by grasping a small flaw! Where is she? It's even more resistant than the people in the Criminal Division!

It's just that her autopsy method has never been seen before, and judging from the methods of dissecting and sewing corpses, she is not a raw hand! He had heard that the method of autopsy of the Jiangnan Dusk family was different from the tradition, and Dusk Huaishan seemed to have only one daughter, this young man...... Could it be that he is a disciple of Dusk Huai Mountain?

Such a capable person should have heard of the name before, why haven't you heard of it? However, the daughter of Dusk Huaishan heard that there was the name of the judge of the Yin Division.

"You are greedy for money, but I'm afraid it's not temporary, and I usually accept money to cover up crimes for others." Twilight Qing sneered, pulling the old man's thoughts back, the old man was shocked, knowing that he could not escape the death penalty, but he still wanted to beg for mercy, but before he could speak, he heard Twilight turn around and say, "Send someone to send all the little people in the house of the people surnamed Hu in the court to torture Cao and ask them to wear ordinary clothes, not the house!" Then find the purses used by these small people in the house, and send someone to the drunken Taoxian Restaurant in the outer city to call the shopkeeper and Xiao Er! ”

Twilight Qing ordered repeatedly, although she could see that what the old man said was true, but the officials couldn't see it, the trial and conviction were all evidence, and the people and purses were found, and they knew it as soon as they recognized it!

Yuan Xiu didn't wait for Cao Shangshu Lin Meng to speak, then turned around and walked out of the hall, and went to order the officials and personal soldiers to go to the various mansions to get people and things, and then go to the outer city to do business.

Although Du Qing did not sit in the court, she was the chief judge of this case, she said that if she took people, she would take people, and she would try how she said, Yuan Xiu had become a messenger, and hundreds of officials could only wait. I came to the torture hall early today, and the autopsy determined the case, and the hundred officials have been standing for more than an hour, and it seems that there is still a station today, such a big case, maybe it will take a day. It doesn't hurt to break his leg, now everyone just wants to protect themselves, beg this case not to involve themselves, just look at that old man, Yuan Xiu hates the person who embezzled the Northwest Army's pension and silver, and he will be killed if he looks like this!

Shengjing City is big, and it took an hour just to find the little people in various provinces, and in this hour, Hu Wenru was difficult, his complexion changed several times, and he didn't know what he was struggling to measure in his heart. Yuan Xiangguo only saw Hu Wenru at the beginning, and then drank tea, but he looked calm.

Twilight sneered in her heart, she had just finished dissecting the corpse, the corpse was still in the hall, I was afraid that all the officials would not be able to eat these days, Yuan Xiangguo could drink tea, I am afraid that the taste of this tea is not very good, right?

Since she knew that this case was related to Hu Wenru, she didn't believe that Yuan Xiangguo was clean, Hu Wenru was his confidant, and Yuan Xiu was Yuan Xiangguo's son-in-law, and the Yuan family took him very seriously. Hu Wenru is the head of the Hanlin Academy, and he has a lot of protégés, and he still lacks the silver taels that he has come up with filial piety? Even if he was really blinded by the silver, she didn't believe that the Yuan Prime Minister would not know about it all these years, if he was deceived to this point, how could the Yuan family have the current momentum in the court?

Twilight Qing is sure that this case has nothing to do with Yuan Xiangguo, but she also has some confusion, if this case is really related to him, how can he let her investigate this case? Was he sure she didn't understand? But what if she found out? As a father, how can he deal with himself in front of Yuan Xiu?

Twilight can't figure it out, but the case still has to be tried, and the truth will always come, just wait.

Dusk Qing ordered people to bring all the small servants in the house surnamed Hu in the court, and they were not allowed to wear the clothes of the house, but only regular clothes, which was to simulate the scene when the old man saw people that day, and asked him not to look at the clothes, but to recognize people by his face.

When the little ones were brought in, Twilight ordered someone to bring them into the lobby at will, so that the old man could identify them carefully.

The scene of recognizing people was silent, the little servants came in, and saw hundreds of officials in the ranks, corpses on the ground, and the old man had blood on his neck and feet, all of them looked frightened, and the old man looked at the person, and he didn't feel like it, so he just shook his head slowly and didn't speak. As soon as he shook his head, the person was taken out and replaced by another one, and after recognizing thirty or forty people in this way, the hundred officials were all anxious, and a young man in his early twenties in a green shirt was led in.

When the little guy saw the scene in the hall, he was also frightened, but as soon as he saw the old man, he hurriedly lowered his head and avoided his gaze.

The old man sat on the ground, and he could see the little guy with his head down, and he looked at this person for a longer time, and the longer he looked at it, the more the little guy looked at him, and then found that the old man had been looking at him, and couldn't help but look at him secretly.

In the eyes of this little guy, the Hu Mansion is high and powerful, and the children or subordinates of the official eunuchs in the past have committed things, how can any official or subordinate dare to take people? No one dares to recognize even if he takes someone, and this old man will not dare to recognize him today. If he hides it, his family will be sent to Guanwai, those soldiers of the Northwest Army hate the greedy people to the bone, and they almost killed him with a knife at the door of Xingcao, if they let them send his family members to Guanwai, Xu Ren was tortured to death halfway before he arrived outside the Guan, even if he could survive to Guanwai, it was the fate of dying under the knife of Hu Ren.

Who has no family? In order to protect his family, he could only sell Hu Mansion.

"It's him!" The old man pointed at the little guy, "That's right, the lower official must be him!" ”

Originally, he was not sure, but the little guy secretly glared at him and helped him affirm the matter.

The little guy was shocked, and Hu Wenru's face turned pale.

Twilight Qing saw Hu Wenru's expression but didn't see it, and said to the officials outside the hall: "Present the purses of each prefecture." ”

The purses were placed in a tray and laid out with Hu characters on one corner, but the pattern was different. When the purse came to the old man, he looked around and pointed to one of them, "It's like this!" ”

"Are you not mistaken?" Twilight asked.

"That's right!" The old man said, in Shengjing, ordinary people recognize the family crest on the official eunuch's house, and when he goes out, he hides and walks, he has served in Xingcao for half his life, how can he admit his mistake?

"Take out this person's purse!" Twilight commanded again.

Two officials were ordered, one of them grabbed the little servant, and the other found a purse from his waist, which was a pair of purses that the old man recognized, although the color of the cloth was different, but the style was the same, and the family crest was the same.

This pattern is on the Hu Mansion of the head of the Hanlin Academy!

The other court officials surnamed Hu immediately breathed a sigh of relief, but Hu Wenru's face was not human.

Twilight said again: "Pass in the shopkeeper and Xiao Er of the Drunken Peach Fairy Restaurant." ”

After a while, the shopkeeper of the Drunken Taoxian Restaurant took the four juniors into the lobby, and when they saw the situation in the hall, the five of them were not as good as the little servants in various houses, so they were so frightened that they knelt on the ground tremblingly, and they didn't even dare to raise their heads.

"Raise your head and look at these two people, have you been to your restaurant a few days ago?" Twilight Qing ordered the old man to be taken together with the little servants of Nahu Mansion.

The shopkeeper shook like chaff, raised his head and glanced at it, he couldn't recognize the little guy from the Hu Mansion, but he recognized the old man, "This, this official master, I went to the grass people's restaurant a few days ago." ”

"Why do you remember?"

"This official was wearing an official robe that day, and the grass people ...... The grass people saw that it was a mistake, and they still felt unlucky, and after the people left, they ordered Xiao Er to throw away all the things used in the house! ”

When the old man heard this, his face was ugly, and the shopkeeper hurriedly bowed his head.

Twilight Qing's face was as usual, she was used to it, when she and her father were in Gushui County, it was the same when they went to buy a household in a shop in the city, they never touched the things they didn't want, and they would buy what they did, otherwise the shopkeeper would be unlucky.

"Since you threw everything in the house, you must remember which room it was?" Twilight asked again.

"Remember, remember!" The shopkeeper said, "The easternmost room on the second floor!" ”

As soon as these words came out, all the officials looked at Hu Wenru - all the evidence and testimony were correct!

"What else does Master Hu have to say?" Twilight Qing also looked at Hu Wenru.

Hu Wenru had nothing to argue, and Twilight Qing took out something from his arms and said, "It's okay, even if Master Hu has something to say, seeing this, I think you have nothing to say." ”――

Off topic -

After two days of stuck, it finally came out.

In the past few days, I have found that there are a lot of advertisements in the comment area, and they are not only deleted, so I still have to remind the girls here that those advertisements are all deceptive and money-making, don't believe it!

Also, I recently found that the mobile phone party asked about recharging a lot, so let's talk about it here:

The proportion of mobile party recharge with the client is relatively lossy, and the mobile browser is used to log in. The web version of the recharge, the operation is the same as the computer recharge, it is 1:100, Android and Apple operating systems can log in to the web version of the recharge. It's even more convenient to set this URL as a browser navigation. In addition, the upper limit of the number of words for posting book reviews on the web version is 2,000, and the comments will not be divided into several posts if the comments are relatively long.
