Chapter 0022: Dry Well Twin Corpses
It seems that this is another big case, and Gu Feng immediately assigned the task. Master Liu and Zhang Zhutou led a few arresters to investigate the nearby villages and towns, and strive to find out the identity of the deceased. Gu Feng led Liu Qing, Yuni, Yuhu and the four guards to the scene directly for an autopsy. Walking on the road, Yuni asked Gu Feng, her brother and sister-in-law, Zhou Yushan and Hong Xuelian, and asked the master if there was any specific task to be handed over to them.
Gu Feng thought for a while and said: "Let them rest for a few days first, and then I will assign them to take people and silver to the original Qi City to open the antique trading market again, and prevent no more people from doing human trafficking business, the purpose is not to make money, but to find out some information about the rivers and lakes." ”
When he arrived at the scene, he immediately stunned Gu Fengkan, no matter how he looked at it, he felt that he knew the man who was killed. He really felt familiar with that face, but he couldn't remember it.
The two victims, a man and a woman, were both killed by the "punishment of dirt", that is, when the victim was unconscious or bound and unable to move, he was forcibly poured sand into his mouth, causing him to suffocate to death. The martial arts of both of them are not weak, I don't know what the relationship is. Before he died, he had gone through a fight, and the man's hamstrings had been broken. Gu Feng asked Yuni if she had any impression of this person, and Yuni looked at it and shook her head and said no.
But when Gu Feng later examined the corpse, he saw the black lotus tattoo on the tip of the right arm of the man's corpse, which finally made me think that this person was "Old Eagle Qiu Qi", Gu Feng's hometown Gumu Fort, the head of the martial arts of Gumu Villa, Qiu Qi and his younger brother "Vulture Qiu Ba" followed Guzhen Mountain and Gu Bashan brothers to do bad things.
Gu Feng told Liu Qing and Yuni about his judgment of the male corpse, and only the two of them might still have a little impression of Qiu Qi and Qiu Ba, and Yuhu should not know. However, Liu Qing and Yuni didn't believe it when they looked left and right, not to mention that Qiu Qi's original bald head was now long, just that he used to have a fat face and a white face, and his head and neck were almost as thick, but now he was black and thin. In fact, the ancient style is also mainly judged from his tattoos, and his figure and face shape are auxiliary evidence.
Gu Feng looked at the woman, and she seemed to be familiar. In fact, the woman is a maid next to the grandmother of the ancient family, she is not ugly, and she is also strong in martial arts, how can she not know the ancient style? It's just that I can't remember it for a while.
Why did Qiu Qi grow his hair and run here from Yongzhou? Who killed him?
As soon as the deceased's body was flipped over, the coat was unbuttoned, and a faint fragrance of flowers wafted out.
"This is the pollen fragrance of 'Poisonous Mist Black Lotus'!" Gu Feng is very familiar with this floral fragrance, no matter where he is, as long as he smells a little, he can accurately judge it.
"It's 'Poisonous Mist Black Lotus' again...... "Gu Feng's mother's family was killed by this poisonous lotus, and the real murderer has not yet been found. Gu Feng was a little puzzled this time, it is said that Qiu Qi is not associated with the poisonous lotus, the problem lies in Qiu Qi's death. According to his speculation, the person who killed Qiu Qi should be a servant in the government, a catcher, or a person from the two factories, otherwise, it is unlikely that he would have used such cruel methods such as "soil bag punishment" and "water torture" to interrogate prisoners.
It is inconceivable that the government or the people of the government are associated with the poisonous lotus. What was Qiu Qi interrogated? Before he was executed, he said he didn't tell the secret he knew? Gu Feng wanted to know the answers to this series of questions, but it was impossible to get them easily, he had to deduce them carefully.
Just when he was waiting for the person who went to investigate the identity of the deceased to report the results, Gu Feng couldn't help but recall the past when he solved the "Poisonous Mist Black Lotus" case and exterminated the dark forces of Gujiabao but escaped Qiu Qi, Gu Qian, Gu Wan and a maid beside the grandmother of the Gu family.
It was the fourth year of Jingtai, the palace test lost the champion, but was appointed as the ancient style of Lingzhou Zhizhou of Yongzhou Linzhao Mansion, and went to the Ministry to receive the official seal, official uniforms and other things that should be necessary for the officials, and waited for the Ministry of Officials to notify them to set off on a certain day. Gu Feng and his sister Gu Yun, who was later his eldest wife, discussed, and the first thing to be carried out when he returned to his hometown was to pursue the murderer and revenge plan.
On this day, it was suddenly announced that the champion Sun Hyun was engaged to the granddaughter of Youzai, and Tanhualang Luokan was engaged to the youngest daughter of Tobe Shiro. Although the ancient style does not care about these, it has always been the case that officials are connected and officials protect each other. But it reminded him of a good marriage, King Tian's youngest daughter Jing'er is now widowed at home due to an accident, and Jing'er, as the county lord, should be able to remarry. Can you say that you are married to Gao Cai, Gao Cai was born in a poor family, she is lonely, she looks very handsome, and her temperament is also kind, if you can climb up to the prince's mansion, it will also be a step to the sky, and Gao Cai and his ancient style, these two good brothers will be very beneficial to the future officials in the court.
"I don't know if the talented brother is willing to marry a widow county lord", in fact, the newly widowed Jing'er is not disgraced and wronged. Gu Feng revealed this meaning to Gao Cai when he drank wine and chatted, Gao Cai and Gu Feng are almost inseparable these days, although Gao Cai is not a little older than Gu Feng, but what is shown is that Gu Feng is the boss of Gao Cai, and at the same time, Gu Feng has also become a dependence on Gao Cai, or in other words, he Gao Cai is just a little brother of Gu Feng, and he listens to Gu Feng in everything.
Of course, Gu Feng and Gao Cai made it clear that if he agreed to this family matter, Gu Feng would go to help him Zhang Luo go to the palace to ask for relatives, if he was not happy, he would treat Gu Feng as if he had not said anything about it, and it would pass. Gao Cai pondered for a while, expressed his willingness to Gu Feng, and said: "I am willing to obey Brother Gu's arrangement, I am happy to this marriage, but I just want to bother Brother Gu to propose, protect the media, preside, and handle it for me, because I have no relatives at home, and Brother Gu is my only relative in this world, I don't know if Brother Gu can promise me?" ”
Gu Feng thought to himself: "I...... I'm younger than you, and I know you have a brother at home! You always think you have no relatives...... But how can I say that I can't ask you? He had no choice but to say, "This is natural!" As long as you are willing, there will be a foolish brother to handle it from beginning to end, and you must not wronged the senior brother! ”
This matter is indeed nosy in the ancient style, in fact, he is bitter in his heart! Not only do you have to work hard, but you also have to pay money to the top.
"Good! Deal! Just work hard, brother, go and do it for me! ”
Gu Feng was also happy in his heart, if nothing else, he did something busy before he set off, alas-who made him an idle person!
First handed over the post to Tian Wangfu to ask for relatives, when the ancient style euphemistically proposed the marriage of the county lord of Jing'er, I didn't expect that the Tian Wang family was all happy, it turned out that the prince and his family of three all had a little impression of Gao Cai, although they didn't know each other, but they have all seen it, of course, especially the prince, he knows Gao Cai, and the new Sanhe County Order is inseparable.
As soon as he heard that Gu Feng had come to ask for his brother Gao Cai, the county lord of Jing'er was also full of joy. Tianwang's mansion was originally very happy about the visit of Gu Feng, and at this time, he added another joy, which was really joyful. Prince Tian was so happy that he couldn't close his mouth, and took Gu Feng's hand and urged vigorously to handle the marriage of the princess and Gao Cai before they left Beijing to take office, and then let Gao Cai take the county lord's wife to take office.
That's great! It's heavenly. What Gu Feng is worried about is that the high-talented Sanhe County magistrate is not good, and personal safety is a problem, if there is a county lord accompanying him, then the guards in the palace will definitely follow a lot, and even these spies in the East Factory, or those royal gendarmes in the West Factory, who are active in the Sanhe area, can also be used by the talents. This is too easy to do, and it is definitely not as difficult as the common people to do happy events for poor families, because there is no shortage of money in the palace. Gu Feng and Gao Cai only need to move their mouths to agree, and then come up with someone, it's all right.
All the expenses and arrangements are handled by the palace, King Tian and the emperor said that the county lord is married, how can there be a reason not to agree not to share the gift money? is so lively and lively, the guests of Tianwangfu are like clouds, and the guests are full. Gu Feng, a big matchmaker, took his people to eat in the palace for several days, which was called a sea meal of delicacies from the mountains and seas, and ate the "four pilgrims" such as Yuni, Yuhu and Sun Ji until the corners of their mouths were shiny all day long, and they kept burping.
"Oops! O my brother! Now you are much richer and more noble than I am. If you want money, you want people, and life is not comfortable! Gu Feng patted Gao Cai's shoulder from time to time and sighed.
Every time, Gao Cai turned around and took Gu Feng's hand and said: "Brother Gu is so sad, in the future, in terms of money, mine is yours; In terms of official position and power, Brother Gu, you will always be my talented boss, and I am my assistant and subordinate. ”
"Hahaha...... Brother Gao can retire and mention these again! We're still good brothers forever, that's all that matters, isn't it? ”
"Yes, yes! This is the main thing. But prioritizing priorities is also the most important thing in my heart. When he said these words, Gao Cai's eyes always flickered and his teeth clenched, of course, no one noticed this detail, and neither did Gu Feng, what the reason was only Gao Cai himself understood.
"Brother Gao is talking nonsense again! What is the primary priority? ”
"Brother Gu is the main brother, and I am the auxiliary."
Seeing Gao Cai's sonorous tone and solemn expression, it was not easy to say anything more in this situation.
The county lord Jing'er is very gentle and virtuous, without a shelf, and soon became familiar with Gu Yun, Zhou Yuni and Jade Fox. You are the lord of the county, but you can be amiable and approachable, which is really rare. What's even more rare is that in addition to the county lord bringing out a team of nearly thirty guards from the palace, the four maids around her, Chun'er, Xia'er, Dong'er, and Qiu'er, are all martial arts masters, all of whom are extraordinary. Fighting alone with Yuni, of course, can't, but the two of them can have a tie together. The four of them went together, and they could almost have a tie with the jade fox. This is already remarkable, I think that after Gao Cai took office in Sanhe County, the martial arts of the head catcher in the three classes of officials were only as good as any of the four maids. This is a great thing to protect the county lord while protecting the county lord in the inner perimeter, and also to protect the talents.
When he was about to leave the capital, the Tianwang Mansion sent the captain of the guard Hong Guang, who was protected by the county lord of Jing'er, and talked about the assassination of King Tian when chatting with Zhao Long, one of the chief banners of the Jinyi Guard, and the fire of the thieves and bandits in the inn, and the killing of the painter who painted the portraits of the princes in the palace. Recently, there have been a series of murder cases in Beijing, and these three major events, the East Factory, the West Factory, and the Jingshi Local Government have all sent people to investigate, but in the end there is no clear investigation result, I am afraid that it will become an unsolved case like other major cases, and it will not be resolved.
"Could it be a thief shouting to catch a thief? The occurrence of these major cases is inextricably linked with the East Factory and the West Factory. ”
