After listening to Cao Liang's advice, Xiahou Xuan stopped his grief.

In fact, Xiahou Xuan is also a more rational person, this time to Wen County, all the affairs are arranged in an orderly manner, in order to avoid the eyes and ears of the Sima family, he used the means of day and night, quietly came to Wen County, and in the early hours of the morning, unknowingly entered the ancestral cemetery of the Sima family, from the beginning to the present, the plan is going very smoothly.

At first sight of his sister's grave, Xiahou Xuan couldn't control it for a while, and cried sadly, but he quickly restrained his emotions, calmed down, and ordered his subordinates to start digging.

The tools for digging the grave have long been prepared, and they are hidden in the carriage, Xiahou Xuan gave an order, and those subordinates are naturally very hard-working, but after a few pillars of incense, they dug up a thin willow coffin, and after a few years, the coffin body was already rotten.

Xiahou Xuan couldn't help but be furious, although it was said that people in this era pursued thin burials, but it was also a burial without gold and silver utensils, according to the status of the Sima family, the wife of the main room died, at least a good coffin had to be used, but the burial of Xiahou Hui was actually an ordinary willow coffin, which showed the ruthlessness and coldness of Sima Shi.

Cao Liang dissuaded Xiahou Xuan, now is not the time to care, if you want to find out whether Xiahou Hui was poisoned, you must open the coffin and see the corpse in order to check it clearly.

Xiahou Xuan scolded Sima Shi angrily, and then ordered the coffin to be opened.

The corpse of Xiahou Hui in the coffin had already decomposed, and only Sensen's white bones remained, which made people feel cold.

Seeing this, Xiahou Xuan couldn't help but shed tears again.

This time, Cao Liang didn't care about comforting him, so he directly called him over and asked him to go to the tomb to check it out.

Naturally, there were a lot of dead bodies and skeletons he had seen, so he didn't have any fear, so he jumped into the tomb and examined them carefully.

After a long time, Yu Zuo stood up, shook his head at Xiahou Xuan and Cao Liang, and said, "Two masters of Qiqi, there is no problem with the examination of the bones, it is not poisoned." ”

Xiahou Xuan and Cao Liang were stunned, this time they came with complete confidence, they believed that as long as the coffin was opened for autopsy, they would definitely be able to get evidence that Sima Shi had poisoned Xiahou Hui, and they would definitely be able to cure Sima Shi's capital crime and avenge Xiahou Hui.

But when they reported this result, they were immediately disheartened, if Xiahou Hui hadn't been poisoned and died, then everything they had done would have become useless, but if the matter was leaked, they would have borne countless infamy.

Xiahou Xuan and Sima Shi have broken up for many years, and the feud is as deep as the sea, if Xiahou Hui is really not poisoned by Sima Shi, then it is equivalent to Xiahou Xuan wronging Sima Shi for so many years for no reason.

And Cao Liang was even more confused, this open coffin autopsy was his last chance to bring down Sima Shi, if Xiahou Hui was not poisoned and died, then Cao Liang would have lost the opportunity to prevent Yang Huiyu from marrying Sima Shi, everything was in vain, this blow was also extremely heavy for Cao Liang.

Xiahou Xuan's face stiffened, he took a deep breath, and said, "Are you sure you have read it carefully and there are no mistakes?" ”

He said: "Master, the villain has been performing an autopsy for many years, and he will never be mistaken, even if the corpse has decomposed, but once the poison enters the bone, the bone will turn blue, even if it is a few decades, the poison of the bone will not disappear." ”

Xiahou Xuan's expression was gloomy, and he looked up to the sky and sighed, could it be that for so many years, he had really wronged Sima Shi?

Cao Liang was pondering, Sima Shi poisoned Xiahou Hui, that is recorded in the history books, who wrote the Book of Jin?

The Book of Jin is an official history book, written in the Tang Dynasty, the author is as many as 21 people, among which the famous representatives are Fang Xuanling, Chu Suiliang, Xu Jingzong, etc., and the presiding over the compilation is Tang Taizong Li Shimin, it should be said that this is a relatively rigorous history book, how can there be such a major mistake?

Although it is said that the time when the Jin Dynasty was written was relatively long before the fall of the Jin Dynasty, the events in the history books were all concluded under the condition that the evidence was relatively clear, if Sima Shi did not poison Xiahou Hui or was in doubt, Fang Xuanling and others would not have written this paragraph into the history books so grandly.

So what's wrong?

Cao Liang quickly came to a bold inference, that is, the body in this tomb may not be Xiahou Hui's at all, with Sima Yi's treacherous and suspicious character, he may be worried that the people of Xiahou's family will open the coffin for autopsy, so it is not impossible to simply drop the bag of Xiahou Hui's body and come to a flower graft.

But inferences are inferences after all, and without real evidence, Cao Liang is not sure that this skeleton must not be Xiahou Hui's.

After all, there is no means of DNA testing now, and no matter how experienced you are, you can at most judge whether it is a man or a woman based on the bones, what is the approximate height, and the rest, I'm afraid it will not be possible to judge.

If it was really Sima's family who dropped the bag, it could only mean that Sima Yi was really an old treacherous and slippery to the extreme, not even letting go of a corpse, and not even leaving them a chance to turn the tables.

Cao Liang looked at He Wu, the tomb keeper who was escorted not far away, he was hunched up, as if he was frightened by the actions of these people, his expression was sad, and he didn't dare to take a breath.

There is no physical evidence, and it seems that the only way to find a way is to find a way on the human evidence.

Cao Liang walked up to He Wu, waved his hand, and motioned to the subordinate who was holding the knife on He Wu's neck to step back for the time being, Cao Liang said to He Wu with a pleasant face: "How long has the old man been in this cemetery?" ”

He Wuzhan said tremblingly: "It's been more than 20 years. ”

"When Mrs. Xiahou was buried six years ago, did you see it with your own eyes?"

"I saw it."

"Then are you sure that the one buried in the tomb is Mrs. Xiahou?"

"Yes, it's buried there, it's Mrs. Xiahou."

Cao Liang put away his smile, his eyes became sharp, and he shouted: "Lie!" It's not Mrs. Xiahou buried in it at all, you'd better tell me the truth, otherwise you'll let your head fall to the ground now! ”

He Wu was frightened, knelt on the ground with a plop, and kowtowed again and again: "Son, spare your life, what the villain said is true, and I dare not deceive half of it." ”

Cao Liang took out a cloth bag from his bosom as if he was juggling, shook it in front of He Wu, and then lifted the bag and dumped it on the ground in front of He Wu.

Rolling out of the cloth bag were more than a dozen gold nuggets of the same size, each about an inch in size, about a catty, a dozen pieces of gold, that is, a dozen catties.

For Cao Liang, this is just a drop in the bucket, but for He Wuer, it is something he has never seen in his life, his eyes are staring at these golds, and they are a little straight.
