Jun Qinglan half-narrowed her eyes and looked at Jiang Yufan, the person's face was full of urgency to please. She thought about what she had just said, and it seemed that what she had said from beginning to end was me, and she didn't mean to invite at all.

So, what's going on with us?

"How?" Jiang Yufan hugged his shoulder: "I'm such a powerful assistant, don't you still plan to leave me?" Don't forget, the emperor handed over this case to the two of us to investigate together. We're grasshoppers on a rope now. I can't jump on you, and I can't run away from me! ”

"Then let's go." Jun Qinglan turned her head and turned over on her horse. He gestured to Rong Han, who was waiting under the tree, and rode out of the city.

Jiang Yu Fan never expected Jun Qinglan to be so easy to speak, and the tirade in his mind had not been used, and the man left. He was stunned for a moment, then quickly got on his horse and hurried after him.

Along the way, Jun Qinglan's complexion was tense, as if she was preoccupied. Jiang Yufan glanced at her and closed his mouth obediently, as long as he could follow her, why didn't he know the truth?

Rong Han ran at the forefront, and everyone rode out of Beicheng and walked three miles. After that, he turned onto a small road to the east, and when he walked for nearly a mile, Rong Han suddenly reined in his horse.

He raised his hand and pointed to one of the forks in the road in front of him with his horsewhip: "The ancestral tomb of the Su family is over there." ”

Jun Qinglan nodded and stepped forward. After walking a short distance, I saw Shi Weng Zhong standing on both sides of the road, and behind Shi Weng Zhong was a large stretch of tombs. Jun Qinglan dismounted and walked slowly in the cemetery. Although the cemetery group of the Marquis of Changxing occupies a large area, thinking that no one has taken care of it for so many years, it is quite dilapidated and messy, and most of the graves have grown extremely long weeds. If it weren't for the stone-carved walls surrounding the tombs, these tombs would not look much different from those of ordinary people.

"Are you looking for Su San's grave?" Jiang Yufan suddenly had a flash of inspiration in his mind, and he suddenly thought of Jun Qinglan's purpose for coming here. He raised his eyes and looked at the dense graves and frowned: "There are so many graves, and many of the tombstones in front of the graves have collapsed and decayed, but how can I find them?" ”

Jun Qinglan hooked the corners of her lips: "It's easy." ”

Jun Qinglan slowly walked on the outermost part of the cemetery, walking only one round and forth around the overgrown road. pointed to a low tomb and said, "Su San, it's inside." ”

"Huh?"

Jiang Yufan raised his eyes and saw that the tomb in front of him was very small. The soil from the grave is not high, and I don't know if there is not much in the first place, or if it has been eroded by rain and wind over the years. So much so that the mound in front of me was completely covered with weeds, and from a distance, it looked like a bulging ball of grass. Jiang Yufan glanced at Jun Qinglan, which eye did you see that this is Su San's tomb?

"Isn't it...... Got it wrong? Jiang Yufan asked cautiously.

"You can't be wrong." Jun Qinglan said: "Although the marriage with the Heavenly Sect is prevalent, the persecuted Changxing Hou has to accept it. But in fact, the Marquis of Changxing never really accepted and belonged to the Ying Tianjiao. He was just under pressure and had to bury Su San in the ancestral grave. ”

Jun Qinglan glanced at the low grave and sighed faintly: "In the heart of the Marquis of Changxing, he should hate Su San, the daughter who is not angry. According to the ancestral system, men and women who have never been married cannot be buried in the ancestral grave, not to mention that Su San is a woman who died horizontally. Although the Marquis of Changxing was forced to agree to bury Su San, how could he really be willing to let her enter the place where the ancestors of the Su family rested. He will definitely bury Su San in the outermost part of the ancestral tomb, and he will definitely not erect a monument for her. Perhaps, in the mind of Changxinghou, such an act would be equivalent to rejecting Su San from the Su ancestor. ”

"I see." Jiang Yufan let out a long sigh: "No wonder you only stare at those graves with defective tombstones." ”

"Ronghan, let's do it."

"I'm here to help, too."

Jiang Yufan rubbed his hands, took the shovel handed by Rong Han, and the two dug up the small grave in front of them together.

The size of this tomb is not large, and there is not much earth. Although it has been a full seven years of wind and rain, it is not difficult to dig up. It didn't take much effort to remove all the soil covering the coffin.

"Tsk." Jiang Yufan stared at the coffin and sighed: "In the end, she is also the young lady in the Hou Mansion, and she only got such an ordinary elm coffin after her death?" ”

Su San's tomb has never been taken seriously, and with the thin filling, the grave has accumulated extremely deep water. The muddy water soaked the surrounding soil into a wet mud, and the elm coffin was full of rotten and dilapidated mold.

Jiang Yufan frowned in disgust: "It's so dirty!" ”

Rong Han was about to jump off the grave, but asked Jun Qinglan to catch him. Immediately, a palm-sized coarse sand wine jug was stuffed into the palm of his hand.

"It's glutinous rice wine, you all drink some before you go down. Then apply the wine juice to the face and hands, and be sure to apply glutinous rice juice to every inch of exposed skin. ”

"Why is that?" Jiang Yufan also took the wine jug from Jun Qinglan's hand and asked casually.

"Su San has been dead for a long time, and her body and graveyard have not been properly disposed of. I'm afraid that there will be corpse poison, so it's always good to take some precautions in advance. ”

"Makes sense."

The three of them were dealt with according to Jun Qinglan's instructions, and Rong Han jumped into the grave. After tying the coffin, he and Jiang Yufan worked together to carry out the elm coffin.

"It's so heavy." Jiang Yufan rubbed his shoulder: "I thought that this coffin board was not very thick, and it would be very light." ”

"It's supposed that there is water in the coffin as well." Jun Qinglan said calmly, and stabbed something under the coffin. When it was pulled out, a flat hole was cut into the coffin.

She surrounded the coffin and made a few more holes before pushing it away. But she saw a foul-smelling liquid rushing out of the hole she had just dug out.

Jiang Yufan looked at the cold, and only felt uncomfortable in his stomach. Jun Qinglan calmly handed him a piece of ginger: "I didn't bring sesame oil with me when I went out today, only this." If you take it in your mouth, you can avoid some of the corpse stench. ”

Jiang Yufan glanced at the two people beside him, each standing like a pine, where was he willing to pick up Jun Qinglan's ginger: "Don't use this." You can all bear it, what can't I bear, master? ”

Jun Qinglan glanced at him and silently put away the ginger, with a bit of banter in his eyes that you must not regret it later.

The water in the coffin was flowing more and more slowly, and it was gradually lost sight. Rong Han stepped forward, glanced at the coffin, and frowned.

"What's wrong?" Jiang Yufan also leaned up: "Is it that the nails are rusted by water bubbles, and it is not easy to pull them out?" ”

"Huh?" He glanced at the coffin, and his face changed: "This coffin is actually ...... Not nailed at all? ”

Su San's elm pavilion was indeed not sealed with long nails, and when he was first buried, he only applied some beeswax and glue to the edge of the coffin, and hastily filled the gaps.

Jiang Yufan pouted: "Marquis Changxing really doesn't care about this daughter at all." ”

Rong Han didn't answer, poured the internal force into the palm of his hand, and slapped it towards the coffin lid. With a muffled sound, the lid of the coffin was violently shaken open by him. The glue that was smeared on the edge of the coffin had long been eroded and rotted by the rain over the years, and it could not play the role of sealing the museum at all. It only takes a little force to open the lid of the coffin.

Jiang Yufan stepped forward to help, and together with Rong Han, he pushed the coffin lid open.

A strange stench rushed out of the coffin with a fishy smell, Jiang Yufan spent a lot of energy, was gasping for breath, and immediately inhaled the sour smell into his mouth. In this way, he could no longer bear the overturning of the river and the sea in his abdomen, and quickly rushed to the side, holding the trunk of the tree and vomiting in the dark.

Jun Qinglan glanced at his back, handed the ginger to Rong Han, and motioned for him to take it to Jiang Yufan. He stood by the coffin and looked into the coffin.

The stagnant water in the coffin had almost flowed, and although the bottom of the coffin was still a little wet, it did not affect the situation in the coffin.

Jun Qinglan squinted, there were actually two corpses lying in the coffin?! Did the Marquis of Changxing bury Su San and Xiaoliu together?

It seems that at the request of the Heavenly Sect, everyone must unconditionally accept the marriage of the Heavenly Marriage, which is really deeply rooted in the hearts of the people in Yanjing City. The two who died in marriage are naturally husband and wife, and it stands to reason that they are indeed to be buried together. But by putting the two bones into the same coffin in this way, Changxinghou seemed to be expressing his anger and dissatisfaction.

There was no burial in the coffin, not even a brocade quilt to wrap the body. The two bodies lay bare on the hardwood coffin board. After seven years of baptism, their clothes and flesh were rotten and clean, and only two bones remained. Fortunately, the bones were still intact.

"Master Jiang, please come over as soon as possible." Jun Qinglan beckoned to Jiang Yufan.

Jiang Yufan looked at her with a pale face, and there was clearly ten thousand reluctance in his eyes. However, where can Rong Han allow him to refuse? The scabbard passed under his armpit, and only slightly lifted up, Jiang Yufan's body immediately lost its strength, and he involuntarily lifted his feet off the ground, so he had to follow him.

"You let go of me!" Jiang Yufan shouted angrily: "Master, don't go and look at that disgusting thing!" I command you, let me go at once! ”

Jun Qinglan stared at him with interest: "Didn't you have to follow me?" Since you have come, you can't come in vain. You've got to see what's inside the coffin and go back and draw it for me. ”

"Jun Qinglan, I'm your boss!" Jiang Yufan glared. Was she giving an order just now? Have you figured out the identities of the two people?

"You can do it too." Jun Qinglan shrugged unconcernedly: "Anyway, when we go to explain this case to the emperor in the future, we don't necessarily go at the same time." ”

"How can I ......." Jiang Yufan's breath condensed: "Why do you have such a subordinate!" ”

He resigned himself to his fate, and this time he didn't refuse the ginger prepared by Jun Qinglan, and honestly held it in his mouth and approached her. Jun Qinglan in front of the coffin looked focused, her face was full of seriousness, and she didn't seem to be affected by the stench in the coffin.

Jiang Yu Fanqi said: "Don't you think it stinks? ”

"Get used to it." Jun Qinglan only replied lightly, but her eyes never left the coffin for a moment.

"How can there be two people?" Jiang Yufan frowned fiercely: "Who can know which one is Su San?" It can't be a fake tomb. ”

"Nature is true." Jun Qinglan raised her hand and nodded at one of the corpses: "That is Su San!" ”
