Chapter 136: Why the Drum

Zhou Ning walked from the public hall to the back office, and Lu Qing prepared a bath bucket for Zhou Ning to take a bath before going to sleep. Pen, Fun, Pavilion www.biquge.info Zhou Ning was refreshed after taking a bath, but he washed away his sleepiness.

He was wearing a moon-white middle coat lying on the bed tossing and turning and couldn't sleep, Lu Qing listened to Zhou Ning tossing and turning outside and couldn't sleep peacefully, he got up and cleaned the incense burner, and gently put the incense to help sleep on the head of Zhou Ning's bed.

"Do you think Wang Qing died of illness or did he kill him?" Zhou Ning looked at Lu Qing sideways, Lu Qing didn't have much experience in autopsy, but he was very unique, after all, he had superb medical skills, and a lot of knowledge in this was the same.

Lu Qing's opinion can affect Zhou Ning's judgment to a certain extent, Lu Qing blindly admires Zhou Ning's talent, and Zhou Ning doesn't blindly trust Lu Qing's medical skills.

"Childe, don't think about it, get some sleep." Lu Qing couldn't tell how Wang Qing died, and there were no external injuries from his corpse, only bleeding eyelids and gums caused by suffocation.

Suffocation can be homicide or death, and many diseases eventually cause suffocation and death.

Instead of listening to Lu Qing's words and sleeping well, Zhou Ning sat up, and he raised his hand to hang the bed curtain on the curtain hook. looked at Lu Qing with a blank eyebrow: "If it's you, what method do you have to kill Wang Qing and still can't detect the injury?" ”

Lu Qing thought for a moment and said: "The best way to kill people invisibly is to use chronic poison to make his body weaken day by day, and die of consumption. ”

Zhou Ning gave him a fierce look: "Do you see the statue of Wang Qing?" ”

Lu Qing shook his head: "It's not." ”

Wang Qing's body is not the kind of thin and withered type, and he is not a weak person at first glance. Lu Qing also examined his corpse with a silver needle, and there was no sign of poisoning from the skin to the internal organs.

"Could it be suffocated with quilts, pillows, etc.?" Zhou Ning deduced from 'suffocation' that he should have covered his mouth and nose with something.

Lu Qing shook his head again: "It's unlikely, the strength of a person's struggle when she is dying is quite large, and she is afraid that she is a weak woman who does not have so much strength." ”

"Wang Qing was drunk early in the morning, if she was tied up hand and foot, she should still be able to do it."

"It's easy to tie her hands and feet, but if she uses something to suffocate Wang Qing, Wang Qing will definitely struggle desperately, and may bite her lip and tongue, at least her neck and the back of her head will be left with friction. Scraped scars. ”

"Hmm." Zhou Ning nodded lightly, what Lu Qing said made sense. There was no external injury on the corpse at all, if he was really killed by Pan, how could he struggle before he died, and the neighbors did not hear the movement or Wang Qing's shouting.

"Is it really that I'm thinking too much?" Zhou Ning began to reflect on whether his nerves had been too tense recently, and he was very sensitive to a little thing. Feel.

"Do you think Pan Shiliang was wronged? How can a good prison go out of the water? Zhou Ning thought of Pan Yufeng's life experience again, her life was really bitter.

A good official lady, because her father died of dereliction of duty, she was sold as a prostitute by the official, and was sold from the capital to Yunjiang County, and was ransomed by Wang Qing, thinking that she would jump out of the fire pit from then on.

She followed Wang Qing wholeheartedly to live a good life, who would have thought that since Wang Qing's son died of illness, Wang Qing would become her living king of Hades.

Lu Qing pulled out a smirk with difficulty, he really couldn't keep up with the rhythm of his son-in-law, and his thinking was too jumpy. From Pan's to her father at once.

It has been 17 years since the prison water case, and the place where the crime occurred is in the capital, Zhou Ning can't manage it even if he wants to, why is it wrong to manage the things that can't be managed?

"Childe, go to bed early, it's not too early." Although Lu Qing is not particularly sleepy, he really doesn't want to talk with Zhou Ning anymore, and if the chat is bright again, the son will not have to sleep.

"Okay." Zhou Ning pulled the quilt and fell, Lu Qing put down the bed curtain, turned around and was about to leave, when he suddenly heard the sound of the drum.

Zhou Ning played it all at once, the beating of the drum in the middle of the night must have been a big incident, he grabbed his coat and put it on his body.

"Childe, don't be busy." Lu Qing was startled, and suddenly remembered that the two officials guarding the yamen today had asked for leave. "There is no one to guard the office today, maybe it is an idler who is making trouble."

Zhou Ning heard the same, no one guarded the office today and did not order the drum to be brought in, presumably someone who walked at night was either curious or drunk and stepped forward to pat it twice.

He sat on the bed and pricked up his ears to listen, first with a single note clapped with one hand, and then with the drums rattling like his hands were clearly thrashing with his hands.

Lu Qing was not annoyed when he heard it, did he not let his son sleep?

"It's such a big dog's guts, and he dares to move even when he hears the drum." Lu Qing saw that Zhou Ning was still listening to the drums, and he persuaded: "Son, you can sleep peacefully, I'll go out and have a look, if there is something, I will come to report, if there is nothing to do, I will reward him with a meal first." ”

After saying that, Lu Qing turned around and walked out, Zhou Ning was restless, and he couldn't sleep well anyway, so he simply got up and put on his coat, kicked on his shoes and chased him out in three steps and two steps.

The master and the master at the entrance of the yamen were arguing with the person who was beating the drum, and suddenly heard the sound of footsteps in the hall, Lu Ming glanced inward, and saw that it was Lu Qing who came over with someone, and he smiled: "Master Lu is here." ”

Although Lu Ming has only been in the county government for a long time, he knows a big secret, that is, when Zhou Ning is not present, Lu Qing is called 'Lu Ye' up and down in the yali, and he must not scream in front of Zhou Ning.

Hearing that Lu Qing was coming, the courage of the master bookkeeper immediately became stronger, it was impossible for Lu Qing to come out alone, usually Lu Qing was also very pompous, not to mention that in the middle of the night, someone was beating the drum of injustice, how could he come out alone?

"Dare to make a fool of the people!" The master bookkeeper pointed to the person who came and shouted: "Mess with the royal law of the master's family, don't you want to die?" ”

"I'm here to report the incident, you hurry up and report it, you can't afford to delay the big thing." When the man heard someone coming out inside, he did not flee in a panic, but moved forward in more and more urgency.

The main book is straight. Blocked him: "Presumptuous! Stand down! ”

The man scolded him hatefully: "Dog minion." ”

"You dare to scold me?" The master raised his fist to smash him, but Lu Qing had already stepped out and shouted in a low voice: "Stop!" ”

The master bookkeeper withdrew his fist and retreated behind Lu Qing, and sure enough, he looked like a dog slave with a smiling face: "Master Lu, why did you come out in person?" ”

"What's going on?" Lu Qing asked.

The chief bookkeeper pointed to the man and replied, "He beats the drum indiscriminately." ”

"Nonsense! I just listened to the drums, and I asked you what he was doing. ”

"I don't know."

"You haven't even asked anything for so long?" Lu Qing glared at him fiercely, turned his head and asked the man, "Why are you beating the drum in the middle of the night?" ”
