When Ye Xun looked through the case file, he found the case file of 'Li Xiaocui's death for no reason', he pulled it out and said to Wen Du, "I just mentioned this case to me this afternoon, and I said that it was very strange. This Xiaocui made a concubine for the family and died for no reason. Her father went around complaining to ask for an explanation for his daughter, and many officials tried it, but they didn't find out what the reason was. Why is the case file in my hands tonight? It's amazing! ”

"Interested in looking it up?" Wendu asked.

"There are so many people who can't find out why, so we can find out? We can explore it, maybe we can find the flaws? Ye Xun said cautiously.

"Why are you so concerned about what Miss Wu said? How good are you looking for a few simple cases to investigate, and what do you have to call these unsolved cases? ”

"Since Qiu Tong remembers it so clearly, there must be something unique about this case. Let's check it out. ”

In the evening, Ye Xun and Wen Du studied Xiaocui's case overnight, but they had no clue......

After returning to the room, Ye Xun lay on the bed and tossed and turned, unable to sleep for a long time. It was late at night, and there was silence all around. Suddenly, a gust of wind blew, and the door creaked open. Ye Xun 'landed on the ground' and sat up, because he had a habit of slamming the door at night, how could the door be blown open by the wind so easily?

"Who?" Ye Xun shouted vigilantly, but no one responded to him. By the moonlight, Ye Xun saw a shadow dressed in white with long hair covering his face appear at the door, and slowly floated towards him. Ye Xun felt his blood rush upward, and his hairs stood up.

"You...... Who is it? Don't come here! ”

"Wronged! Wronged! "The voice came from afar.

Ye Xun tried to calm himself, "You ...... first Tell the officer, who are you? ”

The light white gauze dress and waist-length hair were blown away by the wind, and Ye Xun couldn't see her face clearly. A distant and ethereal voice came, "The folk girl is Li Xiaocui......"

Ye Xun felt his scalp tingle, "Li ...... Emily? The deceased in the case? ”

"Exactly. My lord, the people's daughter is wronged, please avenge the people's daughter. ”

Ye Xun suddenly felt a stream of heat flowing in his body, it was a bubbling righteousness of the arrogant and dry clouds, he didn't feel so scared anymore, "Li Xiaocui, tell the official the cause of your death, if there is really a grievance, the official will definitely give you justice." ”

"My lord! The folk girl was pierced to death by a golden needle. ”

"Golden needles? What holes? ”

"You just have to open the coffin again and do the autopsy, and you will find out. It's inconvenient for the little girl to stay for a long time, and the adults must avenge me......"

Ye Xun still had to ask, but the woman had already drifted away......

Ye Xun turned over and woke up, his middle coat was already wet, it turned out to be a dream! He felt a little cold and looked at the door, the door was still well inserted, and it didn't open, but the window didn't know when it was blown open by the wind. Ye Xun got out of bed and wanted to close the window, walked to the window and saw the night outside, and was stunned: This dream just now was too realistic, could it really be that there is a ghost avenging? Ye Xun looked around, his heart was a little hairy, and he hurriedly closed the window. Ye Xun sat down, poured himself a cup of tea and drank it, and his heart slowly calmed down. He began to think that if there really were ghosts, then it would prove that there were real grievances...... Ye Xun climbed back into bed, but he couldn't sleep anymore, and tossed and turned on the bed until dawn......

Early in the morning, Ye Xun called Wendu and asked him to gather people to prepare for the opening of the coffin for autopsy. Wendu was confused by him, "Why did you suddenly wake up and suddenly have an autopsy?" Could it be that you met a ghost last night? ”

"Huh, how do you know?"

"Now is not the time for jokes! You say that the autopsy is the autopsy? Didn't we study the post-mortem report in detail? Isn't that a problem? What's more, there must be new evidence before you can apply for an autopsy, do you have one? ”

"Nope." Ye Xun told the truth.

"Then you still have to open the coffin for an autopsy?" Wen Du felt that he was simply unreasonable, so he persuaded him in a deep voice, "Don't be impulsive. I know you're eager to solve the case, but you can't be so hasty! If the coffin is opened and nothing is found, how do you plan to end it? Aren't you telling the truth by doing so? This case has been tried by so many officials, even your future Lord Taishan Wu has been tried! The bodies have been examined seven or eight times, what do you mean by the autopsy again? What will they think? After all, we haven't been here for long......"

Ye Xun knew that Wen Du's words were very pertinent, and he couldn't tell him that he had a dream last night that he was going to do an autopsy early in the morning. If he really didn't find anything, he would have to make Wendu laugh for the rest of his life, so he had to pat Wendu on the shoulder and say, "Don't talk about it!" I know you're looking out for me, too. But this time it's up to me, go ahead and arrange it! ”

At the post-mortem site, the officials lined up, and Wen Du and Li Laohan stood on both sides of Ye Xun. Ye Xun instructed and conducted a thorough investigation of the deceased's acupuncture points. He had a serious face, and on the surface he looked confident, but in his heart he was very bottomless, and even a little panicked. This is his decision to go his own way under tremendous pressure! If nothing is found, the consequences are ...... Ye Xun didn't dare to think about it.

Ye Xun poked his neck, forcibly endured his nausea, and stared intently at the knife in the coroner's hand, not letting himself miss a detail......

The coroner in front of him had examined this corpse more than once, and he didn't believe that he could find anything famous this time, and complained in his heart: This old man and new official took office three times, and on a whim, our gang will not have a good life! It's a hard life! His boss reluctantly examined the body again, and then spread his hands out, "My lord, there is nothing!" ”

"How is that possible?" Ye Xun's heart suddenly hung up, and he pretended to be calm on the surface. He began to hate himself, how could he believe in a dream? At this point, he had no choice but to hold on, "Test it again!" This time, be careful, and don't let go of every bone seam. ”

"In the cracks of the bones?" The coroner's face grimaced.

Wen Du touched Ye Xun and whispered in his ear, "Don't make trouble, it's almost over." ”

Ye Xun let out a breath and pretended to be relaxed, "Just do as I say." ”

The coroner received the order and proceeded with the examination. Ye Xun saw that a corpse was becoming more and more disgraceful, and cold sweat kept flowing down.

At this moment, Li Laohan next to him suddenly knelt on the ground, Ye Xun was startled, "Old man, what are you doing here?" Get up! ”

"My lord, the little people don't tell me. Please don't test again! Let's leave the little girl with a whole corpse! Li Laohan burst into tears.

Ye Xun felt very guilty about the old man, but there was no way out, "I can understand your feelings, but it is the responsibility of our government to arrest the real murderer, and we can't let your daughter die in vain!" ”

"But, my lord, ......"

"Old man, don't worry, after the examination is completed, I will definitely order someone to stitch up the wounds of the deceased and restore them to their original appearance as much as possible." What else did Li Laohan say, Ye Xun didn't give him a chance, "Old man, you can stand here for a long time, you must be tired." Wendu, you take the old man down to rest for a while. ”

"Yes." Wen Du stepped forward to support Li Laohan.

Li Laohan looked at Ye Xun begging with a pair of cloudy eyes, and stopped talking. Ye Xun nodded affirmatively at him. Then, Chong Wendu raised his hand. Li Laohan had to leave unwillingly.

It was getting dark, and they began to perform autopsies around noon, and before they knew it, they had been experiencing it for most of the day. The hope in Ye Xun's heart became more and more faint. He didn't dare to tell anyone that he wanted an autopsy on a whim because of a dream last night, wouldn't he be a joke? He's a fool!

At this time, the coroner suddenly said cautiously, "My lord, forgive me for my blunt words. The light at this time is really not suitable for an autopsy. Besides, the little one has already examined the corpse several times according to the instructions of the adults, so it is better to ......"

What is not as good as what? It's better to check it out here and make it final. Tell everyone, it's just a farce, I, Ye Xun, just have nothing to do when I'm full. Ye Xun looked at him fixedly for a while, and said with an unusually resolute expression, "No, palm lamp!" Then check! ”

Seeing that Ye Xun's expression was getting more and more serious, Wen Du just shook his head and didn't dare to interject.

The torch was lit, and beads of sweat the size of beans oozed from the coroner's head, and he complained in his heart: This master is really not easy to fool. With a horizontal heart, I decided to put the corpse **......

Ye Xun watched the body being dismantled and torn apart, and he felt unbearable and uneasy. He silently said in his heart: You are the one who avenged me in a dream! Don't blame me! Alas, what if nothing can be found again? How does it end?

"Your Excellency!" Wen Du suddenly said behind Ye Xun, "Don't take it too seriously, after all, the idea that you want to do something is still good." As for the results...... It's not that important either. ”

Ye Xun turned his face to glare at him impatiently, "What are you talking about?" What should you do, what should you do! ”

"I want to help you! Don't bite Lu Dong Binha, see how you deal with the aftermath? Wen Du also glared back at him.

At this moment, Ye Xun really wanted to come up and ask, what good way do you have to solve the situation in front of you? But he really couldn't open his mouth, so he had to pretend to be tough and say, "Less nonsense!" Get to work! He thought: If I can't finish the field, I will resign from the emperor and find a place to farm. I may not have been born with this piece of material, and I deserve to be looked down upon!

At this time, the coroner was hungry and tired, but he dared not speak out. He rubbed his tired eyes, and suddenly felt a flash in front of him, and he screamed, "My lord! Look! ”

Ye Xun hurriedly stepped up, only to see a shiny thing in the white bones and blurred flesh, "This...... What is it? Ye Xun was so excited that his voice trembled.

"It should be a golden needle."

"Golden Needle?!" Ye Xun's eyes widened and he breathed a sigh of relief from the bottom of his heart.

"Yes, sir. You see that the position of this golden needle can make people die slowly under anesthesia without any pain, and the technique is exquisite. ”

Ye Xun smiled with relief, "This means that the murderer must be proficient in medical skills?" ”

The coroner nodded, "It must be an acupuncture master." ”

"Great. You put away the golden needle and let the dead ......" Ye Xun glanced at the already fragmented corpse, and couldn't help but bend over and retch.

"My lord, what's wrong with you?" Wen Du hurriedly stepped forward to help him.

"It's fine. Please stitch the body together and let her be buried as soon as possible. Then everyone can disperse and go home. After Ye Xun finished speaking, he forcibly left the crowd with nausea, found a secluded place and began to vomit.

Wen Du silently followed him and helped him beat his back, "Is it better?" ”

"Good...... Wow......" Ye Xun was just about to speak, but he began to vomit again. Wendu watched him vomit helplessly.

After vomiting for a while, Ye Xun began to squat on the ground and gasp for breath, Wen Du handed him a handkerchief and quipped, "We didn't eat much today, why did you vomit so much?" To be honest, did you steal it? ”

"you!" Ye Xun wiped his mouth with a handkerchief, and then breathed a deep sigh of relief, "I'm too tired today, let's rest here for a while." As he spoke, he closed his eyes and prepared to recuperate. What happened today was so tragic that he needed to calm down.

I don't know how long it took for a while, Ye Xun raised his head and asked Wendu, "When is it?" Has everyone withdrawn? ”

"It's all gone, right?" Wen Du looked around, not sure.

"Ah, it's so dark! Everyone's gone, what are we still doing in this place? Weird! ”

"I'd like to go back sooner, would you like to be here by yourself?"

"How dare you leave me here. Pull me up, my legs are numb. ”

Wen Du stretched out his hand and pulled Ye Xun up, "You are too godly today!" I had to go to the autopsy, and the result was really for you to find. How do you know if there's a golden needle in the crack of a bone? Is it really possible to pass through ghosts and gods? ”

"You!" Ye Xun hurriedly peeked around, and then said angrily, "What are you talking nonsense?" This kind of place, are you still a ghost, a god? Let's go, get out of here. ”

Wen Du held back a smile as he walked, "Ye Xun, you won't really be afraid of ghosts, right?" ”

"Shhhh Let's go, don't talk nonsense! Ye Xun walked forward, his eyes kept scanning the surroundings, which was in stark contrast to the gentleman's demeanor that usually did not squint, and his appearance looked a little funny. Suddenly, his feet slipped, he couldn't help but close his eyes and scream, turned around and crashed into Wendu's arms, holding him dead......

Wen Du was startled at first, and then laughed. Patted him on the back and said, "Hahaha...... You're still a martial artist. ”

Ye Xun hurriedly let go of Wen Du, his face was red, and he was a little embarrassed and said, "Have you laughed enough?" I'm kidding you. Are you serious? ”

"Are you kidding? Hmph......" Wen Du smiled contemptuously, expressing disbelief.

Ye Xun had to admit, "When I was a child, my nurse always told me ghost stories, which scared me so much that I didn't dare to go to the toilet alone at night. ”

"Really? Haha......"

"I'm not really afraid, but sometimes in certain situations, my heart will be a little hairy. Actually, there's nothing to be afraid of if you want to open it. You are not allowed to tell anyone, do you hear? You swear ......"

"Okay, I promise not." Wen Du covered his mouth and smiled.

"Come, let's talk about the case. When it comes to serious things, you won't be cranky. Wendu, you ...... like this tomorrow"

Ye Xun sat in the public hall, and the officials under the hall stood on both sides with water and fire sticks in their hands. Mrs. Wang listened to Xuan and went to the court, and first saluted Ye Xun, "The people's woman Wang knocked to see the prefect." ”

"Flat." Ye Xun looked down at the hall, this Mrs. Wang was really knowledgeable, generous, and very beautiful.

"Someone! Arrange a seat for Madame Wang. ”

"Master Xie." Mrs. Wang sat down and bowed slightly. "I don't know what happened when the adults announced that the women went to court?"

"Actually...... It's not important. Everyone in the hall was stunned, what do you mean that there is nothing important? Are you okay?

Mrs. Wang was still calm, "My lord, I'm really joking. The woman heard that the adult was planning to overturn the case for the woman's sister Xiaocui, presumably to understand the cause and effect of the case, right? ”

"Exactly! Precisely! ”

"Where to start?" Mrs. Wang asked tentatively.

"Madame Labor, tell me everything you know."

Madame Wang smiled gently, and then she began to speak slowly and logically to the usual family. Ye Xun seemed to have something in his heart, and he didn't have the heart to listen to what she had to say. Mrs. Wang saw that Ye Xun didn't intend to interrupt her, and she didn't have the intention of asking questions, so she took care of herself and married Xiaocui to the general manager of the Wang family with whom she got along, talked about Xiaocui's death for no reason, and then talked about Li Laohan's complaints everywhere, which officials had tried the case, and talked about it vividly, mixed with a few sorrows from time to time according to the needs of the plot. Although the lecture was quite wonderful, because the time was too long, and most of them were short and trivial matters in the family, many officials in the hall, especially the clerk, were almost asleep.

Finally, Mrs. Wang really didn't have anything to say, she looked up at Ye Xun, "My lord, that's all the people know." ”

"Huh? That's it. Well, or not...... Say a little more. Ye Xun said incoherently.

"This ...... All that the women know has been said. I wonder what other adults want to know? ”

"That's it." Ye Xun suddenly thought, "You might as well talk about the medical skills you are good at." I've heard that Madame is from a medical family. ”

"Since the adults are interested, the women might as well talk about it." Mrs. Wang began to talk about medicine and pharmacology without humility or arrogance, which was what she was interested in and what she was worth showing off, so she talked about it with great interest for a long time......

Wendu finally came back, Ye Xun wiped the sweat on his forehead and breathed a deep sigh of relief. It turned out that Ye Xun deliberately dragged Mrs. Wang in the court, and sent Wendu to take someone to her residence to collect evidence. Wendu finally lived up to his expectations, and after a lot of twists and turns, he finally found the golden needle that was exactly the same as the murder weapon. Mrs. Wang thought that what she did was seamless, but she never imagined that she would be recognized by the so-called prefect in front of her......

It turned out that Mrs. Wang had no intention of taking a concubine for her husband, although she had no descendants for many years, she always wanted to pass on her brother's son to the Wang family to raise. Because of pressure from various quarters, she offered to take a concubine for her husband, just to show her deep understanding of righteousness and virtuousness. She didn't expect her husband to say yes. When he married her, he swore that he would never take a concubine! Although Mrs. Wang was reluctant, she still personally married Li Xiaocui into the family. Since then, her husband has stayed in Xiaocui's room all night and left her out in the cold. Xiaocui became more and more arrogant because she was favored, and she didn't even take her as a decent lady in her eyes. Mrs. Wang is still generous on the surface, but in private she gritted her teeth with hatred, and began to slowly brew this conspiracy in her heart......

An unsolved case was finally solved, and the entire city of Hangzhou was shaken. Ye Xun became famous overnight......
