Thanks to the "celadon seal cinnabar" and "sea monster" for the reward~

"This is Gaha, we just put the stage up, this is not allowed to sing Yin, and we have to dismantle it again, is this a joke for us?" A big man with a beard on his face shouted in dissatisfaction.
An older middle-aged man beside the big man hurriedly looked around, and found that he hadn't paid attention to them, so he breathed a sigh of relief and said to the big man: "Be quiet, don't look at this place, can you be wild?" ”
"Don't you let Silver say it?" The big man muttered two sentences in dissatisfaction, but his voice was much quieter.
"Shut up your stinky mouth, the old marquis has given us a lot of silver, and we don't have to perform, isn't this a good thing, you talk a lot, help me carry these things to the car." The middle-aged man stood up and said.
Wen Jing hurriedly glanced at the two of them, and noticed that the slightly older leg seemed to be lame, and the accent should not be from the capital, these troupes ran around the country, just to make ends meet, but I didn't expect to finally take on a big job, and encounter this kind of thing again, otherwise if you are lucky, you can play until the end of the little marquis's marriage, and you can earn more money for several days.
"A servant died, I have ordered people to guard the exits of the Hou Mansion, the child has just disappeared, and it will not be an hour, and it may still be in the mansion." Ji Changge walked as he walked.
While talking, the two had already walked to the scene of the crime, the old marquis and Gu Liansheng were asking a maidservant, Wen Qiran was also standing aside, and there was a man he didn't know next to him.
"Qi Niang, long time no see, how are you lately?"
A familiar voice. Wen Jing followed the prestige, it turned out to be Dongsheng, no, it should be said that it was the crown prince Yunze, he actually came.
"See His Royal Highness the Crown Prince." Wen Jing saluted.
"No courtesy, this is not in the palace, there is no need to be polite." Zhao Yunze smiled.
Wen Jing got up, she didn't want to be polite, with so many people, she couldn't seem too rude.
"That's Qi Wang Yunye." Ji Changge whispered.
Wen Jing looked at the man in the blue robe next to the prince. It seems to be a little older than the crown prince.
"See His Royal Highness King Qi."
"No courtesy. I heard that there is a female officer in the Criminal Department, but I didn't expect it to be so young, Lord Wen is really a good goddaughter. King Qi smiled.
"The prince laughed." Wen Qiran was embarrassed, he didn't teach anything. He himself didn't know why Lu Dao's daughter became a master of autopsy and solving cases overnight.
Wen Jing turned his gaze to the corpse on the ground. Walked briskly past. Examinations of the bodies began.
"Young master, it's all because the slave maid didn't look down on the little young master." After the servant girl finished speaking, she shone on her face with a few loud slaps.
"Stop fighting, just say it. What's going on. Gu Liansheng frowned.
Mrs. Wen and others also rushed over and stood beside Wen Qiran.
"Two days ago, the little master didn't know who said that the young master was going to marry a bride and enter the door, and after coming back, he kept losing his temper, throwing things, not eating or drinking, the master and the young master were very busy, and the slaves and maids thought that the little master would lose his temper and forget it, so he didn't go to report to the master and the young master, they were all ...... It's all to blame on the slave maid,......," the maid trembled.
Gu Liansheng's face was a little ugly, he didn't know that Lu Dao's son would react so much to his renewal, originally his mother was not the only one in the house, but also a concubine, when he took a concubine, he didn't object, but he was still young at that time, and his mother didn't die.
"Go on."
"Today, the slave and Xiao Tang have been with the little master, the little master has not gone out, just now the little master said that he was hungry, the slave and the maid let Xiao Tang accompany the young master, the slave and the maid went to get some food, went to the time of two pillars of incense, when I came back, I found that the little young master and Xiao Tang were gone, the slave thought that the little young master couldn't wait, and he and Xiao Tang went out to find food, so they went out to look for them, and they didn't see the figure of the little master for a long time, and when they came back, they found ...... Don Jr. was found dead in the yard. After speaking, the maid looked at Gu Liansheng in horror.
"How long did you get out of your room?" Wen Jing asked.
"About half an hour ago." The handmaid replied.
Wen Jing nodded, and probed the temperature of Xiao Tang's corpse with his hand, because it was winter, the temperature of the corpse would drop faster than usual, but the temperature of Xiao Tang's corpse had not dropped too much, and the corpse mortis had not yet formed, indicating that it was not too long to be dead, which was consistent with what the maid said, it seems that after the maid left, Xiao Tang was poisoned, and the child should have been taken away at that time.
"The time of death is no more than two quarters (half an hour)." Wen Jing said while inspecting.
Mrs. Wen and Wen Jiuniang saw Wen Jing's autopsy for the first time, and they couldn't help but turn pale with fright, blood flowed all over the ground, and the bloody corpse lying in a pool of blood made them feel extremely frightened and disgusting, and they unconsciously moved a few steps back, and then saw Wen Jing actually touched it with his hand for a long time, where is there still a little bit of everyone's beautiful appearance, which made them feel very shocked.
Cutting open the burlap clothes on Xiao Tang's body with both hands, Wen Jing began to carefully examine the wounds all over his body, there were more than a dozen wounds on his body, of different depths and sizes, and the most fatal should be the wound on his heart.
Seeing Xiao Tang's corpse stripped naked by Wen Jing three times and two times, the female dependents turned their faces away, although it was a dead man, but after all, it was a man, Zhao Yunze glanced at the little ladies, and said in his heart, this is the reaction that a normal little lady should have, and then look at Wen Jing, there is no shyness at all.
"There are a total of thirteen wounds on the deceased's body, the fatal wound is the heart, the wound is about a finger wide, about a foot deep, the wounds all over the body are disorderly, the angle and strength are not the same, the murderer should be stabbed indiscriminately in a hurry, there happened to be a knife pierced into Xiao Tang's heart, if it weren't for this knife, Xiao Tang would not have died."
After Wen Jing finished speaking, he pointed to the bloodstains on the ground and said: "Judging from the bloodstains, Xiao Tang crawled a few steps before he died, probably to call someone to stop the murderer, but at that time, everyone was busy for the banquet, and no one saw him at all, so the little young master was finally taken away." ”
Gu Liansheng hurriedly said: "The murderer and Hongwen must not have gone far yet, Feiran, you quickly send someone to chase after you." ”
"Brother Gu, don't worry, I have already sent someone to watch the exits, there are many people, it is not easy to leave with a twelve-year-old child, if the child is still in the mansion, he will definitely be able to find it, you now send someone to search the entire mansion carefully, and don't let go of every corner." Ji Changge said to Gu Liansheng.
After listening to Ji Changge's words, Gu Liansheng hurriedly called the housekeeper and arranged for all the maids to search for Gu Hongwen.
Looking at the old couple next to him who remembered that they were about to cry, Wen Qiran stepped forward and comforted: "Don't worry, in-laws, with Lord Ji here, Hongwen will definitely have nothing to do." ”
The old marquis nodded, he never thought that a happy event would become a disaster, and he knew that he would rather not congratulate him on his fiftieth birthday.
Wen Jing walked into the room, lowered his head and looked carefully on the ground, as if looking for something.
"Qi Niang, what are you looking for?"
"Look for flour." Wen Jing didn't reply.
King Qi was stunned for a moment, looking for flour at the murder scene, what kind of case-solving rule is this?
"Second brother, you have to get used to it, Qi Niang always has some unexpected ways to solve the case." Prince Zhao Yunze said with a smile.
Zhao Yunye smiled and said, "It seems that the third brother knows Qi Niang very well. ”
Looking at the faint smile on the second brother's face, Zhao Yunze was stunned for a moment, and his face suddenly became a little unnatural: "I don't know much about it, but I often hear Feiran talk about it." ”
The smile on the face of Qi King Zhao Yunye deepened a little.
"Found it!" Wen Jing said happily, and when she looked up, she found that King Qi was looking at her with a smile, and she was suddenly a little embarrassed.
"Found flour?" King Qi smiled, his face warm.
"Yes, my lord, please see, these white powders are it." Wen Jing put the flour in his hand in front of King Qi.
"There is really flour, Lord Wen is really like a god." King Qi was incredulous and exclaimed.
Looking at King Qi's appearance, it doesn't look like a sycophant, and he is a dignified prince, why should he pat her on the back? Wen Jing sighed with emotion, the arrogant Xuan Wang Yuntuo and the narcissistic prince Yun Ze, this King of Qi is much more pleasing to the eye, his speech is gentle and elegant, his behavior is modest and cautious, but he really has the bearing of a king.
Ji Changge also walked over and looked at the flour in Wen Jing's hand: "It seems that it is very likely that it is the same person who captured He Yiqin." ”
"Yes, there is still a suspicion, the murder weapon, Lord Ji takes a closer look at this wound, this knife is narrower than an ordinary dagger, and wider than an awl, what is this?" Wen Jing pointed to Xiao Tang's wound and said.
Ji Changge carefully inspected Xiao Tang's wounds, this kind of wound he had never seen: "It doesn't look like a common knife or dagger or other sharp weapon, it should be some kind of special tool, the murderer carries it with him, his purpose is obviously a child, not a killing, when he was about to kidnap the child, Xiao Tang happened to appear, so he had to kill Xiao Tang, it can be seen from these wounds that he is not good at killing, just stabbing at random." ”
"Has there ever been a rapist or a prisoner who molested women and children in the area under his jurisdiction?" Wen Jing asked suddenly.
Ji Changge was stunned for a moment, and he didn't know why Wen Jing suddenly asked this question, what does the disappearance of the child have to do with raping a woman?
"Yes, but I have to go back and check the case record, what is indecency?"
"It's the act of molesting women and children, touching the body, and so on." Wen Jing explained.
Ji Changge had an epiphany, but he still felt unrelated.
After waiting anxiously for two hours, the entire Hou Mansion was almost turned over, but there was still no Gu Hongwen, and the guards at the door also said that they had not seen any suspicious people come out, the child was so big, it was not an object that could be hidden on the body, and it was not easy to take it out.
"Has the troupe checked?" Wen Jing said suddenly.
"I've checked everything, and I've opened all the boxes."
It seems that he is too worried, and the only thing that can hide the next twelve-year-old child is the big wooden box, it seems that the murderer and the child are no longer in the house, what method did the murderer use to take the child out of the Hou Mansion? (To be continued......)
PS: The second is estimated to be around eleven o'clock~
