Zhang Fuling hurriedly got out of the way and smiled at the man:

"Father-in-law Fang, please."

Yes, this white-haired eunuch is Fang Jizhong, although this case is handled by Zhang Fuling, but the emperor still sent him over, after all, the deceased is a harem concubine, and he still has to have the face he wants.

Fang Jizhong came up at this time and sniffed the hair carefully, for a person who has been in the harem all the year round, he knew what it smelled like after a little discrimination.

After smelling it, he quickly turned his face away, covered his mouth and nose again, and said:

"It's just ordinary osmanthus head oil, just this hair can have such a heavy smell, how much has this person smeared?"

Zhou Yi'an's eyes rolled, "Two possibilities, the first is not to touch this thing often, and if you use it secretly, you will naturally use it more; The second is to mask the greasy taste on the head, so use it more. ”

Zhang Fuling looked at Fang Jizhong, obviously he had the most say in this here.

Fang Jizhong thought about it according to Zhou Yi'an's inference, "It makes sense, our family thinks that the first one may be greater, after all, there is no smell of sweat on this hair." ”

Zhang Fuling looked at Fang Jizhong, and his voice was lowered.

"Father-in-law Fang, whether this case is investigated by the factory guards, or now I will take the lead, and the two of us will co-organize, no matter how it is not done, Your Majesty will not be able to explain it, there is no more information at the moment, why not dissect the body?"

Fang Jizhong thought for a while and nodded, "Your Majesty agreed to the request of the Zhou court, and asked Zhang Shaoqing to invite this servant to come, thinking that he also agreed to investigate the case like this, it is important to catch the real murderer at this moment, okay, you let go of your hands and feet, you guys go out, don't be an eyesore here." ”

Fang Jizhong waved his sleeves, and several little eunuchs and two guards all walked out quickly.

In an instant, Zhang Fuling, Fang Jizhong, Zhou Yi'an and Zhang Wanxun were left in the room, Zhang Wanxun glanced at the horse lamp in his hand, and his face was a little embarrassed.

"Why don't I turn my back?"

Zhang Fuling shook his head, "Just close your eyes, so as not to blaspheme the dead, Zhou Yi'an will start to do it." ”

Zhou Yi'an got the order, put down the tweezers and saucer in his hand, and quickly knelt down.

"The small one below will dissect the corpse, if the adults and Father-in-law Fang feel unwell, they can wait next door, after the autopsy is completed here, the small one will try to explain, after all, this scene is very bloody."

Fang Jizhong was a little embarrassed, his face turned cold, was this disgusted with himself?

"If you want to do it, you can do it, where do you get so many words."

Zhou Yi'an hurriedly got up, lowered his head and walked to the side of the corpse, bowed three times, and said a bunch of words, what to catch the real murderer and ascend to Bliss.

Then he quickly removed the clothes of the deceased with his hands and feet, covered the lower part of the corpse with the white cloth that had just covered the corpse, and blocked it with two oilcloths on both sides, and began the autopsy.

After a short time, all the internal organs were taken out, and Zhou Yi'an covered all the deceased with an oilcloth, found a long board, and began to clean the deceased's stomach and esophagus.

The more he looked at him, the more convinced he was in his initial judgment, but when he cut open his stomach, Zhou Yi settled down, there was no gastric juice here, no chyme, only some broken light-colored knitted fabric.

Seeing Zhou Yi'an's movements, Fang Jizhong's miserable face turned around, and he asked impatiently:

"Just say what you think, don't hesitate, what's wrong?"

Zhou Yi'an nodded, took out all these things with tweezers, and put them on the table.

"The wine found in the deceased's mouth just now was only in the throat, and the poisonous wine did not flow into the esophagus, which proves that the deceased was poured into the poisonous wine after death, but to the surprise of the little one, the deceased's stomach was empty, there was no chyme and no gastric juice, only these fragments."

"Isn't it normal to have no chyme?"

Fang Jizhong asked the key, and Zhou Yi'an said:

"Yes, even if you are on an empty stomach for three hours, there are food residues or gastric juice in this stomach, and if you can achieve such a thing, this person will be hungry for at least a day."

As he spoke, he unfolded the pieces of knitted fabric, which were strips of cloth, white silk that had been soaked, but there were black ink stains on it, and it was obvious that something had been written on them.

After fighting for a while, it was finally unfolded, and a half-arm-square silk handkerchief appeared in front of him, all the ink on it was unrecognizable, but the corner of the silk handkerchief was embroidered with a golden chrysanthemum that was particularly conspicuous.

Fang Jizhong's eyes narrowed, chrysanthemum?

Zhang Fuling naturally saw it, and seeing Fang Jizhong's thoughtful appearance, it was obvious that he knew what this mark meant.

"What did Grandpa Fang think?"

Fang Jizhong didn't say anything, and looked at Zhou Yi'an.

"But what else have you found?"

Zhou Yi'an pointed to the other side of the board, on which there was a pot-shaped purple tissue, which was also cut at the moment, and there was a thickened bulge on it, about the size of a fist.

"This person has been pregnant for more than three months, and the fetus has been formed. In addition, there was congestion in the lungs, and there was a small amount of discharge inside, which also proves that the deceased was suffocated by covering his mouth and nose, and then poured into wine, and his hair and clothes were replaced. ”

Seeing that Fang Jizhong had doubts on his face, Zhou Yi'an unfolded his shirt.

"When the clothes were just removed, the dirty clothes were reversed, and the inner clothes were not fully extended, and the sleeves were hoarded on the upper arms, so it can be seen that the deceased was lying on the ground and was put on the clothes from top to bottom, and this is all the information that can be known from the autopsy."

After Zhou Yi'an finished speaking, he knelt down and waited for orders.

"I don't know if the organs of the deceased were sutured in situ, and at least on the surface after such disposal, it is still a complete body."

Fang Jizhong nodded, "Then try to ensure that the body is intact, this is also a poor person." ”

After speaking, he and Zhang Fuling left the East Courtyard and returned directly to Zhang Fuling's room.

After closing the door, Zhang Fuling poured a cup of tea for Fang Jizhong, raised his eyes to look at Fang Jizhong, who was preoccupied, and asked:

"This Sun Zhaoyi, has he been favored recently?"

Fang Jizhong shook his head, sighed and said:

"This is what our family is most worried about, I don't know how to make it clear to Your Majesty, this Sun Zhaoyi has been in the palace for a few years, two days ago, our family went to the Internal Affairs Office to check the records, she has been favored once or twice a year, and this year there is no at all."

Zhang Fuling was also stunned, a harem concubine, no pet turned out to be pregnant, how big is this?

If the emperor knew, it would be thunderous and angry.

"If you don't report it truthfully, I'm afraid this matter will be more involved, and there is also that Jinpa, I don't know that the concubine in the palace likes to embroider golden chrysanthemums?"

Zhang Fuling looked at Fang Jizhong, he knew that this Fang Gonggong seemed to guess more, but he didn't know how to say it.

Fang Jizhong sighed, took a sip of tea, and then raised his eyes to look at Zhang Fuling.

"Concubine Xian's birthday in September, has always been a chrysanthemum metaphor, all accessories must be embroidered with chrysanthemums, the flower garden in the palace, perennial for Concubine Xian to cultivate all kinds of chrysanthemums, after the three princes were named the virtuous king, it is in the beam to collect chrysanthemums around to Concubine Xian, everyone in the palace knows."

Fang Jizhong paused and continued:

"Sun Zhaoyi is not favored, and he is also an indisputable master, he can have Zhaoyi's position in the palace, mainly attached to the queen's side, and Na Su'e was sent out in the queen's palace, and now there are more clues, but the more you check, the more frightening it is."

Zhang Fuling nodded, he understood what Fang Jizhong was worried about, but since this case had reached this point, it must be investigated.

"The skin on the face and neck of the injured person that Zhou Yi'an said just now is damaged, and this can be traced."

Fang Jizhong nodded, "Ask that Zhou Yi'an to draw the shape of the skin lesion, and our family can send someone to the palaces to find it, this is the only way to work at this moment." ”

"Father-in-law Fang, don't disturb, the case has to be investigated, but it's better for fewer people to know about the process of this inquiry, so Su'e interrogated all night last night, I don't know if I confessed?"

Father-in-law Fang covered his mouth and nose, with a fierce face.

"This little hoof is a ruthless person, and the factory guards have good means, so they can carry it down, so it can be seen that she must have a handle to be controlled."

Zhang Fuling went to call Zhou Yi'an over, at this moment he had already dragged the apron, wore a regular clothes, and hurriedly knelt down to meet him.

"Zhou Yi'an, you draw the skin lesions found in the deceased's nails, and we will send someone to find them according to the form."

Zhou Yi'an took out a piece of paper from his cuff and held it high above his head.

"The small one has been drawn, according to the state of the skin, I have roughly guessed a few locations, if you look for it tomorrow, you can mainly observe these places, and Yi'an has a guess I don't know if to talk about it?"
