"It's getting hotter, and the ice is in short supply, and if you come quickly, you can save me a lot of money." Wang Ren slowly stood up, pointed to Xiao Liu who was standing on the side and said, "Oh, take Xiao Qi down for a walk, I haven't come back for a few days." ”

Xiaoliu lowered his eyes.

Xiao Qi didn't say anything, just looked at Xie Shuning, and saw her bow slightly, so she turned around and followed Xiao Liu.

Wang Ren watched this scene under the porch, and his heart was satisfied. If you follow the new master, you should always put the old master first, such a subordinate, it is better not to. He has always been very proud of his vision of distinguishing people, and this time Xiao Qi's style shows that he did not pick the wrong person at the beginning.

The corners of his mouth couldn't help but hook slightly, revealing a faint smile, and he was about to take Xie Shuning down in person, but when he saw her frowning and her face sank like water, he couldn't help frowning, and said, "It's not rotten yet, what are you frowning." ”

As soon as he said this, he couldn't help but feel remorseful.

Obviously, what I want to say in my heart is that people cannot be resurrected after death, and they mourn ...... How did it become like this as soon as it came to the mouth.

Wang Ren felt a little embarrassed in his heart, turned his face and coughed lightly twice, slowed down his voice and said to Xie Shuning: "That's it, just take a look." After a pause, he then added, "It's very ugly, and if you see too much, you will inevitably have trouble sleeping at night and nightmares." ”

He knew that he couldn't hide this from Xie Shuning, and she would know it sooner or later. At the beginning, he deliberately wanted to harm Yan Huai, but now that Yan Huai is dead, he doesn't have to do it anymore, and God thinks that these two people are not suitable. When Wang Ren received the news and saw the corpse, he couldn't help but smile on his face......

But this time he met Xie Shuning. There is still some worry looming in my heart.

What if she cried out loud in front of her?

He wanted to say a few words of comfort, but as soon as the words came to his lips, the taste changed.

The words "nightmare" fell, and Xie Shuning's face darkened. He saw it clearly. secretly said something was not good, immediately closed his mouth, silenced, and only silently took Xie Shuning to the bottom.

The day is getting hotter, and if the corpse is placed in an ordinary room, and there is ice on the side, it will inevitably rot. Fortunately, there is still a layer under the ground of the East Factory. The stone prison was cold, and the room where the autopsy was conducted was also placed below.

The stone steps are long and narrow, and Wang Ren walks in front. Xie Shuning, who followed behind him, remained silent. Except for the first salute and the sound of the seal duke, he didn't even say a word.

Wang Ren felt a little uncomfortable in his heart, and wanted to ask the Song family how these days were good, and the things going south were all ready again. But seeing Xie Shuning, this is what he looks like. He didn't find it easy to ask questions. He was ready to go south later, and he just had to pack up these trivial things before setting off. He was tired of the people in the palace, and he was tired of the fun. Xiao Runzi is his one-handed tune. has been taught, and now he can be on his own, and it doesn't hurt to throw all the power in his hands to Xiao Runzi.

After so many years, to this day, he just wants to find a small house with two entrances to live. Isn't it beautiful to bask in the sun and grow flowers when you have nothing to do?

He walked down the stone steps. Thinking about what flowers to plant and how many fish to raise, Xie Shuning suddenly spoke, and he took a pause.

"That corpse had already fallen badly, and even if it was sent back to Kyoto all the way, it would have been many days in a row, and even if it was held with ice, I am afraid it would have rotted and could not be distinguished."

Wang Ren was stunned when he heard this, and slowly turned his head to look at her, the girl standing condescendingly on the stone steps behind him had a face like frost and snow, and her tone was calm and strange.

He waited for her to cry......

"The work of the East Factory, the art of contouring." He turned around and continued to walk slowly, "It's not lifelike, but barely recernible." ”

Xie Shuning's voice suddenly became softer, echoing faintly in the tunnel, "Really? ”

Wang Ren froze, handed her a piece of ginger with his backhand, and said, "If you don't even have this ability, what do you want him to do?" Dongchang does not raise people who eat white rice. Hold the ginger slices under your tongue. ”

The smell of the corpse's decay could still be heard even through layers of fabric. Therefore, it is inevitable to smoke mugwort first, and then remove the smell with ginger and other substances. Xie Shuning's finger that took the ginger slice couldn't help but tremble slightly, revealing the trepidation and worry hidden under her calm face.

She had seen dead people, but it was the first time she had seen corpses that had begun to decompose.

What's more, the one she is about to see is very likely to be Yan Huai.

She stuffed the ginger slices into her mouth, took them under her tongue, and then gritted her teeth tightly and began to follow Wang Renwang.

Wang Ren stood at the door, but seemed to hesitate.

He has always loved cleanliness, and even touches the wall with his hands and has to go back and wash it more than a dozen times, but this will have to go to the morgue......

However, after hesitating for only a moment, he took a step ahead of Xie Shuning, stepped into the door, and then looked sideways at her, and said, "It's still too late to stop now." ”

It's not a treasure, you can't look at it.

Wang Ren whispered in his heart, but the movements of his hands did not stop, and with a soft click, he lit the lamp.

Xie Shuning curtsied and said in a deep voice, "Thank you Yin Gong." ”

I don't know if it's to thank him for his concern, or to thank him for letting her in.

After all, he thanked him, and Wang Ren felt useful when he heard it, and staggered two steps to let her in.

Bright lights were lit in all corners of the morgue, illuminating the room as bright as day, only the silence was terrifying, and the pins could be heard.

Xie Shuning held her breath, frowned, and walked quickly to the corpse covered with a white cloth in the middle of the room. Bright light hit her face, casting deep shadows.

Wang Ren stood far away, and when he saw her approaching quickly, he couldn't help but be stunned, and then looked around and sent everyone around him away. In the end, he was still afraid that Xie Shuning would cry loudly, the girl's family would inevitably be thinner-skinned, and if others saw it, they would be embarrassed if they couldn't keep it in the future.

"Take a look and go." He didn't dare to breathe heavily, so he spoke in a very soft, almost whispering voice.

She nodded, and reached out to gently lift the corner of the white cloth.

For a long time, she stood there motionless.

Seeing this, Wang Ren frowned and said, "It's time to go." ”

Xie Shuning seemed to freeze before moving, and as soon as his hand was released, the corner of the white cloth fell. She turned around and said in a daze, "It's a bit like him." ”

I heard that the face of the corpse was very badly damaged because it had fallen on the rock. Dongchang's work knows the art of cosmetic retouching, but he is not a god, so he only repaired it a little, so as not to make that face too terrifying.

Some look like him, but they don't seem to be him.

Xie Shuning was confused and short of breath.

Wang Ren shook his head, stepped forward helplessly, carefully carried the willow leaf knife and pulled away the white cloth, pointed to a peach blossom-like tattoo on the shoulder of the corpse and said: "Yan Moshi was born with a birthmark on his shoulder, and then he was covered by this peach blossom tattoo, and few people know about it. ”

When Yan Huai returned to Beijing, it was also with this mark that Xiao Wan decided that he was "Yan Huai".

Wang Ren said again: "The age, shape, clothing, and birthmarks are all right. He flicked the corpse's hand again and spread it out to show Xie Shuning, "He has practiced archery since he was a child, and the calluses on his hands are also right." After he finished speaking, he threw the willow leaf knife in his hand to the side, took out a handkerchief to wipe his fingers, and said: "I know you don't want to believe it, but the world is impermanent, and the king of Hades wants him to die three times, who can stop him." ”

Xie Shuning's eyes gradually returned to clarity, the corners of his mouth tightened, and he said half-loudly: "Duke Yin has already affirmed that this person is the Duke of Chengguo?" ”

Wang Ren said slowly: "The emperor has already received the news, and the funeral should be done in two days." ”

"Really?" Xie Shuning's expression was serious and dignified, but his tone was trembling.

Wang Ren bowed: "Naturally, it's true." ”

Xie Shuning's eyes turned red suddenly, but no tears fell after all.

She suddenly said: "Dingguo was almost convicted, but at the last moment, the salted fish turned over, can the Duke of India know?" ”

Wang Ren can climb all the way from the lowest little eunuch in the palace to the position of the chief eunuch of the master of ceremonies, what kind of people say what kind of words, what kind of words are mixed in, he knows as soon as he hears it. This will Xie Shuning suddenly asked about Wandao, and even if he heard the meaning of the words, he immediately sank his face.

He sneered, stood there with his hands tied, and his voice was still gentle: "You suspect that Yan Moshi's death has something to do with this seat?" ”

Xie Shuning shook his head: "Aman doesn't want to doubt you." ”

Unwillingly, that is to say, she already doubts!

"I'm afraid you've already started to be suspicious." Wang Ren's voice became more and more gentle, like a patient elder, and he said earnestly, "In your opinion, does this seat look like it is meddling in this matter?" ”

Xie Shuning lowered her eyes and sighed: "Like ......"

"......" Wang Ren was so angry that he had a headache, and he couldn't speak with a cold face.

However, when he suddenly heard Xie Shuning mention the matter of Wandao, he was indeed a little weak and lacked confidence.

The two were at a stalemate, and Wang Ren said indifferently: "What if this seat interferes? ”

Without waiting for Xie Shuning to speak, he threw away his sleeves suddenly, strode out half a foot away, and then raised his voice: "It's meddler, you have to prepare the meal for this seat the day after tomorrow!" After speaking, he stopped suddenly, turned his head to look at her, and said with a calm face: "Don't forget, green onions, ginger and leeks are not allowed to be put in the dishes!" ”

Before the words fell, he said angrily: "It's not easy to get rid of the smell of clothes, remember to burn them." ”

Xie Shuning was already familiar with him, and when he saw him like this, the doubt in his heart suddenly disappeared, and he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

Wang Ren didn't look at her, turned around and left, leaving her alone in the morgue.

Xie Shuning was alone, standing in front of the corpse and watching, standing for a long time without feeling that her legs were numb, so she simply squatted down.

After seeing the corpse, she became more and more disbelieving that Yan Huai was no longer alive.

But what was going on, she was still confused.

She crouched there, her eyes closed and pondering.

Wang Ren waited for a long time and didn't see her go up, and couldn't help but turn back and hide in the corner to look quietly, and when he saw her squatting like a piece of wood, he couldn't help but sigh secretly. (To be continued......)
