Cheng Luoyan looked at him, followed half a step, and still clinged to him: "If you don't say it, I also know that she thinks you have changed your mind and fallen in love with my sister." Plus I'm seriously ill, so I don't want to drag you down, right? - You can reassure her, because my sister said that it is impossible for her to marry you, including being your concubine. Since Madame cares about her and almost has an accident, she feels that she can't be intimate with you again in the future, otherwise, if Madame has three longs and two shorts, she will feel guilty for the rest of her life. I hope you understand her distress. Slowly fade into oblivion. Good for both sides! ”

Leng Yi was gloomy in his heart, and nodded silently, this is good, the two women he loves the most, Zhuo Qiaoniang and Cheng Luojie, are estranged from him, and in the end, they have to leave. When I came to the Great Song Dynasty, the three women who had the reality of husband and wife with me all left me, and they really didn't have to worry about coming and going.

Cheng Luoyan looked at him and said in a low voice: "I know you feel uncomfortable, in fact, my sister is not feeling well, but there is no way." This is the creation of people. With that, he turned and walked into the night.

Leng Yi stayed under the porch for a long time, and it was estimated that Zhuo Qiaoniang in the house had already finished taking a bath. Then he stepped into the house.

Sure enough, Zhuo Qiaoniang had already laid down on the bed. Cao Sui came to serve Leng Yi to wash his clothes. Leng Yi lay down on the soft collapse next to the bed, and Cao Sui went out with the lantern.

Leng Yi's curtain on the bed had been put down, it was quiet inside, Leng Yi was not at ease, got up and walked carefully to the bed, lifted the curtain and took a look, only to see Zhuo Qiaoniang lying face in, already asleep, then put down the curtain and returned to the soft collapse.

The next day, Leng Yi got up and checked Zhuo Qiaoniang again. Zhuo Qiaoniang heard the sound, slowly opened her eyes, looked at him, smiled reluctantly, and said, "Let Caosui help me dress." ”

Yesterday I already said that today I am going to find the grave of Zhuo Qiaoniang's real husband. Leng Yi hurriedly whispered: "You have a good rest first, I'll go check it out, and then go together." ”

Zhuo Qiaoniang shook her head and said, "I'm going with you!" ”

Leng Yi said: "Don't worry, I'll let you do everything you need to do first, and we'll go back then." ”

Zhuo Qiaoniang also felt that she couldn't be anxious. He nodded in agreement.

Leng Yi came out and ordered the servants to go and call the servants of the yamen.

The work soon came, and there were several of them, bowing down to salute.

Leng Yi asked the madman who hanged himself in the alley behind the Yinling Inn last year, where he was buried, and who was buried. Next to a large tree in the underworld. Leng Yi asked them to rush to the car first, find the grave, dig it out, and buy a good coffin to collect, and at the same time, immediately buy the best cemetery to be reburied. Report as soon as you're ready. Then he took the money and gave it to them.

A few servants hurriedly agreed and said goodbye.

At noon, after lunch, the servants came, and reported that everything had been arranged according to the instructions of the chief judge.

Leng Yi ordered to prepare a carriage and told Cheng Luojie that he was going to move a person's grave. So, the guards followed back and forth, strengthened their vigilance all the way, and came to the underworld.

The bones had been dug up from the grave, and they had been hastily collected in the cheapest coffin. Because they were buried the day after they died, they were buried in the shade, especially in the cold winter, so that most of the corpses had not yet decomposed. The bones had been transferred to the best coffin he had bought, without a lid.

Cheng Luojie and they were all on guard all around, Leng Yi asked Cao Sui and the others to wait in the distance, and there were only Zhuo Qiaoniang and him Leng Yi at the scene.

Zhuo Qiaoniang slowly walked to the side of the coffin, knelt down, held the coffin, looked at the bones inside, tears rained down, cried mournfully, and finally, sobbed and said: "Husband, you can go with peace of mind, the concubine may come to accompany you without saying anything......

Leng Yi looked at the bones in the coffin and said in a low voice: "Brother, I swear to take care of your family, now that your wife is seriously ill, the emperor's imperial doctor can cure her illness, I will definitely find a way to cure her illness, and I hope that you can be blessed by the spirit of heaven!" ”

Zhuo Qiaoniang glanced at him with teary eyes, and said to the bones: "He is very good to me, he has done everything he should do, I hope you will bless him with prosperous official fortune, and also honor the ancestors of the Leng family." ”

When Leng Yi heard this, what Zhuo Qiaoniang meant was that she would continue to impersonate herself in the future, so would she still let herself be her husband? But she didn't.

Zhuo Qiaoniang prostrate beside the coffin and kowtowed a few times, and then she collected her tears.

Leng Yi asked him to come over and nail the coffin. Because the cemetery is to be selected according to the specific person, this requires Mr. Yin and Yang to inspect the feng shui before it can be finalized. At the same time, the burial is also particular, and you have to find an auspicious one. This could not be done in a day, so the coffin containing the body was transported back to the yamen mortuary for temporary parking in a horse-drawn carriage.

Back at the yamen, the wife of the shopkeeper of the coffin shop who had the murder case was waiting at the yamen, and first sent the coffin to the yamen mortuary, and accompanied Zhuo Qiaoniang to tears. Then he whispered to Leng Yi: "Thank you for buying this coffin in our coffin shop, the women are selling it, but they don't dare to make a penny." In addition, the women have a small suggestion, I don't know whether to talk about it or not. ”

Leng Yi then knew that he asked Qi Zuo to buy a coffin, and the one he went to was the coffin shop where Guan Zuo went. This Luo sold the coffin at cost price, and now he came to the door again, accompanied by tears, and said that he had any suggestions, probably to please himself and for the murder of her family's coffin shop.

Leng Yi said: "You can say it." ”

"Yes," Luo Shifu said, "The husband of the folk woman has an ancestral secret recipe that can ensure that the corpse will not decay for thousands of years!" Even if most of it is already decomposed, it can be turned into a dried corpse and preserved. I don't know if the eldest lord is interested in using this medicine. ”

Leng Yi sighed and said, "There is such a miraculous medicine." Okay! Then deserve to come to me! ”

"Yes, yes!" Luo said: "However, how to use this medicine must be done by the women themselves to be effective, otherwise it will have no effect." ”

"Okay, then it's hard work."

"Okay, the woman will go back to dispensing medicine immediately, and come back immediately."

Luo Shi left, Leng Yi waited for the coffin to be placed, and asked Cao Sui and Cheng Luoyan to escort Zhuo Qiaoniang back first, and she had to handle some official business.

Soon, Roche was back, with a guy with a large bag of medicine and a toolbox. Leng Yi took them into the convergence room and watched them work, it took about an hour to complete.

Leng Yi nodded with satisfaction and paid Roche.

Luo hurriedly waved his hand and said: "The women don't dare to ask for the old man's money, this is a gesture." I only hope that the eldest master can properly review the murder case in our coffin shop and catch the murderer as soon as possible, so that my husband and I can clear our grievances. ”

Leng Yi smiled and said, "This official will definitely catch the real murderer as soon as possible!" - By the way, is anyone else aware of this secret recipe besides you and your husband? ”

"No more! This is the ancestral secret recipe of the husband of the woman, he is the only son in the family, and both parents have died, so only the two of us know. ”

"Well, that's a good idea. If it really works. ”

"It really works! Folk women can be guaranteed! "Roche, hurry.

The next day, the shopkeeper Guan was arrested and was about to come back. However, the arrest also brought back a bad news, that is, the shopkeeper who left two days before the case has not left Juzhou, and he went to Juzhou to buy goods, and there are several businessmen who can help him testify, and at the same time, the shopkeeper and the guy of the inn where he ate and stayed who came to investigate all proved that he had been in Juzhou and had not left.

That is to say, Guan Shopkeeper has no time to commit crimes!

The biggest suspect couldn't have committed a crime!

The case is about to hit a dead end all of a sudden? They all looked at Leng Yi worriedly.

Leng Yi smiled slightly, and ordered the arraignment of the shopkeeper.

Guan shopkeeper looked very confused and kept his head down. Leng Yi said: "Listen to your buddy, Wu Qi, who was also the first to find the body, said that you have a relationship with that dead little daughter-in-law, right?" ”

Shopkeeper Guan nodded heavily.

Leng Yi said: "You tell me what happened, and tell me more about it." ”

The shopkeeper Guan said what happened, which was consistent with what Wu Qi said.

Leng Yi didn't interject and listened quietly. In the end, after the shopkeeper finished speaking, Leng Yi said: "Now, tell me again how you strangled the little daughter-in-law and how you did things on the corpse!" ”

As soon as these words came out, not only the shopkeeper was shocked, but even Cheng Luojie and others, who were listening to the trial, were also taken aback. Could it be that Leng Yi is bluffing?

The shopkeeper quickly knelt down and kowtowed: "Master, the grass people are wronged!" The grass people didn't kill her, and before she died, the grass people had already left Bazhou and went to buy goods. ”

Leng Yi said: "You really don't cry when you don't see the coffin, then okay, I'll let you see the coffin!" ”

Leng Yi instructed Wu Zhutou and others to take the shopkeeper to the room where the little daughter-in-law was stored in the mortuary, took a pair of scissors, inserted them into the stomach of the corpse, clicked the scissors, and cut the belly!

There was no blood, just a strange scent that permeated the room.

Guan Shopkeeper's face changed immediately.

Leng Yi sneered, raised his hand, slowly probed into the stomach of the deceased, grabbed a handful, took it out, and put it on the table, everyone looked at it, but it was a handful of medicinal herbs!

Leng Yi looked at the shopkeeper Guan and said, "These medicinal materials in the stomach of the deceased should be the same as the medicine of your family's ancestral secret recipe for preserving the corpse." You must be weird, right? How did I know that the corpse had medicine in its stomach. By chance, I have a friend who died, and I bought a coffin in your coffin shop, and your lady offered to give me this medicinal herb that can preserve the corpse for my friend's corpse. I saw firsthand how they put herbs into the corpses. It's peculiar. - Starting from the navel, mouth and anus of the deceased, hollow out all the internal organs of the corpse, including the brain. Then stuff your antiseptic herbs into these three places, and finally stitch them up. No wonder when I entered the house, I smelled blood and medicine. Am I right? ”

Cheng Luojie and the others all showed surprised eyes. The shopkeeper lowered his head.

Leng Yi continued: "I don't know if this method can really preserve the corpse for thousands of years, but I know that this method can greatly slow down the occurrence of corpses [***]. And judging the time of death, in many cases, is based on the progress of the corpse, because your method slows down the corpse's [***], causing me to make a mistake in judgment and mistakenly think that the deceased died within a day, in fact, he died three days ago, and that day was exactly the day before you left Bazhou! ”

The shopkeeper began to tremble all over his body and collapsed to the ground.

Leng Yi continued: "This prescription is your ancestral secret recipe, and only you and your lady know. Your lady was helping out at Aunt Liu's house next door to you that day, and she didn't have time to commit the crime, so she was the only one left. There is only the time to commit the crime, and there is also the motive for committing the crime. You want to change the time of death in this way so that you can get rid of suspicion. However, Skynet is magnificent but not leaky, what else do you have to say? ”

The shopkeeper Guan trembled and said, "I recruited her, I strangled her." That night, she came, and it just so happened that I wasn't feeling well that day and didn't want to do it. She scolded me for being incompetent, and said that if I don't have the ability, I shouldn't learn from others to cheat. I'm angry. Then she asked me to give her another hundred taels of silver, because she wanted her husband to do his own business. I said that I gave her all the money I had saved up from my wife. There is no more penny. She didn't listen, saying that she was innocent of a woman, and she was harmed by me like this, so she gave me a little money that was not enough, so she forced me to give it, and said that if she didn't give it, she would go to my wife to ask for it. I gave her so much money, if she was looking for a Qinglou, a hundred would be enough, but she was too little. I repented of what I said at the beginning, and she still persecuted me like this, plus she said I was incompetent just now, so I was already angry. All of a sudden, his head fainted, and he strangled her to death. ”

"How did you come up with the idea of drugged her instead of throwing her into the river?"

"I was weak in my hands and feet, and I didn't have the strength to carry her to the river and throw her. Moreover, I was afraid that someone outside would see me, so I didn't dare to move the body out. I sat in the house, afraid that the yamen would arrest me. I have heard from the yamen before, and I can tell when he died from some signs of a corpse. I sat and thought about it for a while, and decided to make her a medicine man. Because the medicine man's corpse doesn't decay, in this way, it may not be found that I killed her. It just so happened that the man who was keeping vigil in my coffin shop went out again that night, and I was the only one in the coffin shop. I took out my tools, hollowed out the internal organs of her body, and put them in an oiled paper bag. Then fill the corpse with medicinal herbs. I have all these herbs in my coffin shop. I put the body away and left, throwing the entrails into the river. And went home. The next day, I said that I was going to buy the goods, and I also told the two guys that before Wu Qi came back, there was no need to be on duty all night. I know they won't come into my back room during the day. ”

The case was successfully solved, and Leng Yi ordered the shopkeeper to be imprisoned.

Cheng Luojie and others were full of praise for Leng Yi's ability to solve the case.

Leng Yi didn't wait to speak, he heard footsteps panic, and the grass spike rushed in, and the whole person was already discolored: "It's not good!" Brother-in-law! Last time, the bad woman, Mother Song, who pretended to be cleaning the yard, and the old king of the gardener kidnapped her sister and the old lady! ”
