Chapter 680: Someone is afraid

readx;

When a person dies and is buried, but it is found that the body is not in the coffin, what is this not an aggressive thing?

Liu Chengfeng originally just asked casually, but at this time, he couldn't help but be interested, got up and stood up, and couldn't help but say, "Take me to take a look." Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 ļ½‰ļ½Žļ½†ļ½ā€

Chen Hongyu didn't say anything more, took Liu Chengfeng and his people out of the city, came out of Chaoyang Gate, passed a gallop road, and then came down from the gallop road, walked on the sheep intestine path, and then arrived at the cemetery of the Jiang family.

It's very secluded here, almost no people, only a lonely grave standing, and dozens of captains have blocked this place here, and as soon as they saw Liu Chengfeng coming, someone immediately led Liu Chengfeng over.

The grave had been dug up, the coffin full of fresh earth had been lifted, the lid of the coffin had been lifted, and it was empty. ā€

Chen Hongyu followed behind Liu Chengfeng step by step, and hurriedly replied: "Yes, it was nailed when it was dug up, and there was no trace of prying the coffin." ā€

Liu Chengfeng nodded, and then asked, "So, after the burial, no one came." ā€

Chen Hongyu said: "Absolutely no one has moved, if there are traces of groundbreaking, the brothers must be able to see it." ā€

Liu Chengfeng nodded and said, "So when they were buried, they didn't put the corpse in at all. ā€

Chen Hongyu said: "That's probably the case. ā€

Liu Chengfeng went around to the tombstone, and saw that the tombstone was written with a few simple words "The Tomb of the Dead Sister Jiang", generally speaking, women are only accessories in this era, so on the tombstone, women have no name, and this Jiang is a widow, widows are divided into two kinds, one is the dead husband, this kind of person is buried with her husband after death, and the epitaph is mostly from the husband's surname, such as Zhao Qian, Deng Wu and the like.

And this Jiang family is obviously a widow who has been divorced, such a widow is extremely rare, and she is also ashamed to speak, and it is normal to have only a few words on the tombstone.

Liu Chengfeng was stunned to look at the words on the tombstone, it was a strange feeling, Liu Chengfeng also has a lot of research on the way of calligraphy, the words on the epitaph are indeed very good, vigorous and powerful, very bit of the master of calligraphy, Liu Chengfeng has no doubt that the person who writes must be a rare calligrapher in Beijing, and only the best calligrapher can write such a dragon flying phoenix dance words.

So who is the person who writes?

There is a rule in the Ming Dynasty, that is, no matter whether it is a red and white happy event, the person who usually inscribes it can never be his family, and ordinary people will find some gentlemen who sit in the museum or local Xiucai to inscribe. If it is a wealthy official family, there are many colleagues, relatives and friends, or teachers and bosses with high status. This is a kind of etiquette, so the higher the official does, the higher the chance of giving someone an inscription, and the more opportunities there are to leave ink treasures.

But widows are different, as I said before, widows are ashamed to tell people, even when they are buried, they have to sneak around, they have to find a wilderness, how can they still find someone else to write an epitaph? So generally, this kind of thing is done by your own family.

And the Jiang family can write such a good character, who else can there be besides Jiang Bing, that is to say, this character was written by Jiang Bing.

This is where Liu Chengfeng is most confused, because although this word is written well, if you are careful, you will find that there is a problem with these words, under normal circumstances, most of the people who write will know, writing will also be affected by the mood, when people are irritable, the font will also become irritable, when the heart is weak and cheerful, the book will also be a little frivolous, so all the people who write and paint, very particular about the state of mind, the so-called meditation and cultivation of qi is so, this is almost every book everyone first to learn a kung fu.

The strangest thing about Liu Chengfeng is that in these six simple words, I actually saw some fonts obviously have many traces of ink, the general line of calligraphy, pay attention to it in one go, only those who are new to writing, for various reasons, will be inked many times, a stroke, if it is not well written, then add another stroke to cover up the original bad place, which is a common thing for beginners.

But the person who wrote this epitaph is obviously the top calligrapher in the world, how can such a person repeat the ink, and say something ugly, any talent will never make such the simplest mistake, let alone a Jinshi and the first Shujishi?

This illustrates...... Liu Chengfeng's eyes couldn't help narrowing, which showed that Jiang Bing was so emotionally affected when he was writing that it was a little difficult to even write, so he had to repeat the ink. It stands to reason that Jiang Bing lost his sister, and the whole person was in grief and pain, and it was inevitable that his emotions would be affected, but with Liu Chengfeng's own experience in writing, he denied this, and simple sorrow would only affect the aura contained in the glyphs, but not this. Could it be ...... Could it be that when Jiang Bing wrote these words at that time, he was not sad at all, but afraid and afraid?

Only when people are afraid, will they lose their minds, and will make a person who has been accustomed to writing for a long time suddenly unable to control the power of the pen, and grief will not have this effect, at least the effect will not be so obvious. So, what is Jiang Bing afraid of?

What are you afraid of?

Liu Chengfeng was even more puzzled, always feeling that this matter was getting more and more complicated, first the buried widow suddenly disappeared from the body, and then found that the widow's brother was actually afraid, Liu Chengfeng guessed down, did even Jiang Bing have decided that Jiang was killed by a ghost, so he was afraid and uneasy?

This reason makes sense, but then again, Liu Chengfeng vaguely remembered that Chen Hongyu had gone to investigate, saying that Jiang Bing had repeatedly gone to Shuntianfu to let Shuntianfu thoroughly investigate the case, and when someone thought that it was a ghost who harmed people, Jiang Bing also said to people that there are no ghosts in the world at all, and the so-called gods and ghosts are simply absurd and uninhibited.

Isn't this sentence contradicting the fear in Jiang Bing's heart, or is it that Jiang Bing is deceiving himself, he is afraid of ghosts and gods in his heart, but he deliberately released this remark to show that he is not afraid of ghosts and gods.

The more he pondered, the more Liu Chengfeng felt that his reasoning was full of loopholes, and he couldn't stand scrutiny at all, but it made Liu Chengfeng fall into a situation where it was difficult to justify himself.

Liu Chengfeng couldn't help but smile bitterly, and then said to Chen Hongyu: "Extend the words on this tombstone and archive it." He paused, and then said, "Where is Jiang Bing's hometown?" Immediately send someone to check the details, by the way, there is also the details of the Jiang family. ā€

Chen Hongyu said: "I understand, what else do you have to say." ā€

Liu Chengfeng said: "Remove everyone, ask someone to release the news, and say that the Jiang family's grave has been stolen." ā€

"Ah......" Chen Hongyu couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, and said to Liu Chengfeng: "Didn't we steal this tomb?" This matter spreads, and Shuntianfu touches the melons and finds out on our heads......"

Digging people's graves is a rotten thing, if this kind of thing spreads, even Jinyiwei's side can't withstand the pressure, and everyone will talk about it at that time, this Jinyiwei's already smelly reputation, I'm afraid it will be even more stinky. Coupled with those who are afraid that the world will not be chaotic, things will be very passive.

Of course, another factor is that this tomb is the tomb of the Shujishi family, and under normal circumstances, the Shujishi are considered to be the leaders of the Qing Dynasty, and these people control public opinion and have a high weight in the court. The commander actually asked people to release the news, isn't this shooting himself in the foot?

Liu Chengfeng smiled slightly, and said: "I just want to let Shuntianfu come to investigate, this check, you will find that there is no corpse in the tomb, what about us, just use Shuntianfu to spy on the Jiang family's reaction, and see how Jiang Bing justifies himself, but Jinyiwei can't come forward, once Jinyiwei comes forward, it will inevitably arouse the vigilance of others, just do it, and spread the news." ā€

After hearing this, Chen Hongyu could only nod helplessly and said, "I know." ā€

Liu Chengfeng turned over on the horse and took everyone back to the city, along the way, Liu Chengfeng looked very uneasy, and the extraordinary party had not said anything, but now he was hitting the horse to the side of Liu Chengfeng, and said: "My lord has something on his mind?" ā€

Liu Chengfeng glanced at this Xi Chaofan, and couldn't help laughing, for this Xi Chaofan, Liu Chengfeng was a little grateful, plus this person had also read books, so he didn't shy away from him, he nodded, and said: "There is indeed something on his mind, do you know, if Jiang Bing is not accidental, I am afraid that he will be a concubine, but this case is too strange, and it may even involve the future concubine master, you tell me, what should this official do?" ā€

Xi Chaofan said angrily: "Naturally, I will inform the palace of this matter as soon as possible, and after this case is settled, let the palace consider the matter of the princess's marriage." ā€

Liu Chengfeng shook his head with a wry smile: "I'm afraid it won't work." ā€

Liu Chengfeng knows his own hardships that the matter between him and the princess has long been known by the emperor and the queen, and the emperor is seriously ill, and Queen Zhang is afraid of long nights and dreams, so these are the two important reasons for the princess to marry early. If at this time, Liu Chengfeng ran to say that Jiang Bing had a problem, not to mention the emperor, what would Empress Zhang think? Empress Zhang will definitely think that Liu Chengfeng has no old love for the princess, so she makes a hindrance and wants to deliberately sabotage the marriage between the princess and Jiang Bing.

So the most important thing for him now is to investigate the case to the bottom of the matter, otherwise once the raw rice is cooked and cooked, then things will only be more troublesome.
