From Qin Xiaoyan's investigation, it is almost certain that the deceased were all favored concubines of officials and wealthy merchants. Gu Qiancheng has been like this all the way, and even among the dozen or so corpses, one of them is pregnant with Liujia, and her fetus has also become a dry and hard piece, which will remain in her body forever.

However, in this pile of favored concubines, Gu Qiancheng found the corpse of a young girl. Although the clothes on the girl's body are not rotten, because they have been too long, they have long been turned into wisps of rags, and the material cannot be seen, but from the faded color, it can be guessed that the color of this dress is bright and bright.

There is nothing on the girl that can prove her identity, and she can only be determined from the five views that the girl was a beauty before her death, with a deficiency disease, and she looks thinner than the average person.

"How can there be a girl's bones here?" Gu Qiancheng squatted in front of the deceased and didn't get up for a long time.

She examined all the bones, and only this one was a cardamom girl, and the others were young women of about twenty years old, or women who had already had men.

"Draw her portrait." Qin Xiaoyan faintly had a guess, and Gu Qiancheng also had it, so she was so shocked.

This girl, if there is no accident, is very likely to be the daughter of Prince Gongyuan who committed suicide by jumping into the tower, the county lord of Wuyang.

Gu Qiancheng immediately picked up the pen and paper, everyone was silent, and only the "rustle" sound of the tip of the pen touching the paper was heard in the room, and soon the sound disappeared.

"It's done." Gu Qiancheng tore off the painting and handed it to Qin Shanyan, Qin Xiaoyan only glanced at it and nodded, "This king has seen the archives in the palace, and he is indeed the lord of Wuyang." ”

"She is the county lord of Wuyang, who is the person who jumped the tower and died?" Gu Qiancheng turned his head to look at Qin Xiaoyan.

"If you want to know who it is, you can open the coffin." Since it is not the county lord of Wuyang who is buried in the soil, it is not difficult to open the coffin for an autopsy.

"Yes, as long as the coffin is opened, I just don't know if the bones of the county lord of Wuyang are still there after so many years?" The case of the Goddess Tower is obviously not something that can be done by one person, and there is definitely a gang behind it. If it was really a gang, then it would be difficult to say whether there were bones in the coffin.

"Let's go see first." Qin Xiaoyan didn't delay, asked Gu Qiancheng to clean up here, and the two of them went out.

"The soldiers are divided into two ways, you take the king's token, take people to check the bones of the county lord of Wuyang, and the king enters the palace." It is a matter of whether the royal lord is true or not, and Qin Shiyan needs to say hello to the old emperor.

"Okay," Gu Qiancheng took two guards and rode to the cemetery of the county lord of Wuyang.

The lord of Wuyang died without marriage, and after his death, he could not be buried in the royal cemetery, nor in the cemetery of his husband's family, but he could only choose a borderless place with beautiful mountains and rivers to be buried.

It was much easier to dig up the grave without any care, and the tomb keepers knew that it was an official errand who did not dare to stop it, and even brought shovels to help.

Gu Qiancheng was still very afraid of digging up the graves of the dead, and she also knew that the two guards were not willing to do such a thing, so she did not skimp on the incense money, bought a bunch of paper money and incense, respectfully paid the incense, and sprinkled the paper money before letting the guards do it.

The coffin was not buried deeply, and it was quickly dug out, and before opening the coffin, Gu Qiancheng sprinkled some paper money and put a few firecrackers, although it was not very formal, but it was good to have a heart.

The guards are coarse, and they don't know what to do when they open the coffin, so they feel that it's okay to take care of Qiancheng's affairs, and they bow to the coffin, and the guards hand over the coffin to open, but everyone is dumbfounded when it opens!

There was no one in the coffin at all, only a large stone, not even a burial goods.

"This, this ......," the grave keeper sat down on the ground in fright, "I, I didn't move." ”

"No one said you moved," Gu Qiancheng had already prepared, and motioned for the guards to come up and bury the soil back.

"Miss Gu, that's it?" The two guards held the shovels and did not move for a long time.

Just one stone, and they will bury it back.

"What do you want to do? The bones of the county lord of Wuyang are under the goddess tower, and it is normal to bury a stone here. Gu Qiancheng spilled all the remaining paper money in his hand, "Let's go, go back and give life to His Royal Highness King Qin." ”

She has checked everything she should have checked, and the rest is Qin Xiaoyan's matter, she can't let her be a forensic doctor and do the work of criminal investigation, she is not good at these.

"Oh, oh." The guards followed Gu Qiancheng back to the city in a daze, and as soon as they arrived at the gate of the city, they met Yan Tian, and Yan Tian's eyes softened a little when he saw Gu Qiancheng, "The emperor sent you into the palace." ”

"Thank you, General Yan." Gu Qiancheng surrendered to the words, didn't say anything, and entered the palace with the people sent by the palace.

After talking and stopping, seeing Gu Qiancheng's calm face, he knew that she would be fine, but just stood in place and watched Gu Qiancheng leave.

The teeth of the pro-soldiers watching from the side were sore, and General Yan was really, he liked people and didn't say it, what does it mean to be so silently guarded?

Gu Qiancheng was taken directly into the imperial study by the palace people, there were only the old emperor and Qin Xiaoyan in the study, Gu Qiancheng knelt down and saluted as soon as she entered, the emperor did not mean to call her up, only said: "I already know about the county lord of Wuyang, Gu Qiancheng, I order you to find out as much as possible, who used a stone to pretend to be the bones of the county lord of Wuyang"

After Gu Qiancheng entered the city, he didn't tell anyone about the county lord of Wuyang, and even Qin Xiaoyan didn't know that there was a stone in the coffin of the county lord of Wuyang, which showed how powerful the spies in the hands of the old emperor were

Gu Qiancheng was terrified, extremely glad that he hadn't done anything excessive, otherwise he wouldn't know how he would have died.

"The courtiers obey." Gu Qiancheng didn't want to do it, even if she didn't know how to investigate the case at all.

"Well," the old emperor replied with satisfaction, "I don't want outsiders to know about this, you should know what to do?" ”

It was a matter of the clan lord, and the old imperial city didn't want to make a noise, so he would leave Gu Qiancheng behind.

"The courtiers understand." Gu Qiancheng didn't raise his head in response, and the old emperor waved his hand with satisfaction, "Stand down." ”

From coming in to going out, Gu Qiancheng went out without even seeing the figure clearly, and she couldn't stay longer after she went out, and the palace people immediately stepped forward to invite her out of the palace.

In the imperial study, there were only two left, the old emperor and Qin Xiaoyan, the two emperors got up, walked to the low couch and sat down, and beckoned to Qin Xiaoyan, "You haven't played chess with me for a long time, come, accompany me in the next game." ”

"Grandpa Huang......" Qin Shiyan shouted helplessly, he didn't want to play chess at all, the case of the Goddess Tower had just made progress, and he was thinking about going back to the six doors to arrange the work, hoping to solve the case as much as possible.

"It's still early, and you can't turn around without the six doors, didn't I hand over this case to Gu Qiancheng? You don't care. The old emperor sank his face, and Qin Shiyan stepped forward, "Grandpa Huang, you look up to Gu Qiancheng too much, she doesn't have that ability." ”

"Really? Even the supply of food and grass for the 200,000 army, and the consumption of armaments can be calculated, what else will she not have? The old emperor snorted, expressing dissatisfaction.

"Grandpa Huang, you obviously know that it wasn't her." Qin Xiaoyan sat down opposite the old emperor, and the black chess fell first, and the old emperor fell without hurrying and falling a piece that was not worth it, and he couldn't hear the joy and anger: "You are really good to her." ”

"Grandpa Huang, whoever is good to me, I will be good to him." Qin Xiaoyan fell again, seemingly serious, but in fact he didn't put too much effort into the chess game.

His chess skills, the imperial grandfather has known for a long time......
