Chapter 21: Old Things
"Forty years and three, eight feet three inches tall...... Qiao Ran recalled the contents of the autopsy paper, and couldn't help muttering, "This height is really ......" Standing in the crowd, he almost saw it at a glance, and when he walked through the city, he estimated that he would be a head taller than others.
"The side of the body is red and swollen, as if it was caused by a fist injury, which at least shows that someone has attacked Su Xun with his fists, and it is also a random punch, and a man who has heard that he has superb martial arts and is so tall was beaten like this...... It seems to be caused by the lack of resistance to fight back. Qiao Ran looked at the water in the bathtub and was distracted, "There are knife wounds on both arms and legs, the deepest is no more than half an inch, and these skin injuries should be caused by assassins." ”
These are all external injuries, and the real fatal thing is a silver needle from the top of the head from the top down, the silver needle is poisonous, and Su Xun was poisoned to death. This kind of killing method is not something that ordinary people can do, either experienced healers, or people who are also excellent in martial arts, ordinary people simply do not have such strength.
"Miss." Hongdou hurriedly walked in from the outside, and saw that she was still staying in the bathtub, so she hurriedly reached out and wiped the temperature of the water in the bathtub, and her face immediately changed when she tried it, "Miss, get up, this water is cold, don't hurt your body!" ”
After being pulled out of the bathtub by the red beans, Qiao Ran asked her, "How is the inquiry?" ”
Hongdou glanced at her, and then said, "What is important about Miss's body?" As soon as the slave and maid were not there, the young lady would not pay attention to her body, so how could the slave and maid dare to leave in the future? ”
Big girl, you should always worry a little more. Hongdou stuffed Qiao Ran into the quilt and then spoke.
"I inquired clearly, I heard that I went to several people to listen to the news today, and the person sitting in the medical hall didn't wait for me to say what I meant, so he said it in one go."
"It turned out that the master was a doctor in Yuanchuntang, and after grinding for a few years, the old doctor of Yuanchuntang saw that she had some talent, so he taught her some medical skills, among which the master was best at orthopedics. A female doctor who is good at orthopedics is not quite the same as ordinary women, so there were many people who looked at the 'different' of the Madhyamaka to ask to marry the Madhyamaka. However, at that time, the viewer refused one by one, and I heard that he was getting along with a poor scholar studying at Jiangnan Academy. Nuo, it's the dead Su Xunpress, at that time, this person was not called Su Cheng, but Su Ergouzi......" Speaking of this name, Hongdou couldn't help but almost laugh.
"It seems that this Su Xun's family background is not very good." Qiao Ran was thoughtful when she heard this, "What did his parents do?" ”
"This slave also asked, how could the slave and maid who Miss asked not ask?" Hongdou snorted, and there was pride in his tone, "Although the person sitting in the hall didn't know, but let the slave ask around, but from the mouth of the cook lady in Yuanchun Hall, I learned that this Su Xunji was fluent in the northern accent at the beginning, and he also had the talent to learn dialects, and he learned the Jinling dialect fluently in a few months. ”
"In this case, this Su Xun is very likely to be a northerner, there are many academies in this world, and there is not only one good academy in Jiangnan Academy, but the capital is full of talents, why did he come to Jinling from the north?" Qiao Ranqi said.
"I really don't know this," Hongdou spread his hands and said helplessly, "I only know that this Su Xunzhu came to Jinling from another place, and then got along with the Guanzhu, and the Guanzhu helped him study, and took money to help him go to Beijing to take the exam, just waiting for him to come back in the middle of the next year and ask to marry her." ”
"If you really marry the Guan Lord, there will be no matter about the first Mrs. Su." Qiao Ran smiled and shook her head, "Infatuated woman with a bad heart, I've heard a lot of this story." ”
"It's not quite the same!" Hongdou said, "The first Mrs. Su is the daughter of an adult in the Ministry of Ancestors, a serious official lady, I heard that Mrs. Su and a cousin of the birth of Su Xun fell in love at first sight, but Su Xun did not hide that there is also a 'confidante' in Jinling, Nuo, it is our Guanzhu, such a person who values love and righteousness made Mrs. Su greatly moved, moved to take a step back, and agreed to marry Su Xun as a flat wife......
Qiao Ran couldn't help but shake her head: Su Xun, who had just entered the officialdom, was not the current patrol press at that time, but just a hairy boy who was only a jinshi, and when he needed to rely on the father-in-law of Mrs. Su's family, the female doctor from a mediocre background really wanted to go all the way to Beijing to be Su Xun's wife, and it was really a bad day.
"When the news reached Jinling City, many people were praising Su Xun for his affection, but our Guan Zhu refused on the spot, and said, 'Just as if the money was fed to the dog', this matter was just that, and the Guan Zhu continued to be a female doctor and could not hinder Su Xun Press, but Su Xun was too affectionate, and sent people to the medical hall to wait for three days, in short, after a good scene, the Guan Master simply did not go to the female doctor to go to Xuanzhen Guan to become a monk."
That's right! No wonder the viewer was so disgusted when he mentioned Su Xunpress! The monk was also forced by his "love and righteousness", so it seems that at that time, for himself or for his aunt, the viewer was willing to take the initiative to put down his body and find Su Xun, which really made her inherit great love.
With such a big love, how could she Qiao Ran ignore it?
And according to this, the Guan Zhu and Su Xun press are not old feelings, but have a grudge, so the motive is there, and then think of the cause of Su Xun's death, it is not impossible for the Guan Zhu, as a former female doctor, to pierce the poison needle into the top of Su Xun's head. Qiao Ran took a deep breath and frowned: she can think of this, and those adults can also think of it.
If both parties are in a hurry to solve the case, these alone are enough to determine the Lord's sin. Sometimes these adults are not asking for the truth: but an opportunity to overwhelm each other!
Do you hope for the conscience of the other person? Qiao Ran didn't dare to be so big: this was not a joke. Thinking about it like this, how can you still sleep?
"Red Bean, go to the Haley to see if Tongfang has returned?" Qiao Ran turned over and got out of bed, put on her dress and walked out, "This can't wait!" ”
No matter how much you can't wait, you can't come out at this time! Because of Su Xun's accident, the time of curfew in the city was also changed from Hai to Wu.
"Miss, it's almost time." Hongdou was a little scared carrying the lantern, and when the patrol officers and soldiers bumped into them, the two women dangling in the street might not be in prison.
"Human life is at stake!" Qiao Ran sighed with emotion, made a boo gesture at her, and continued to walk forward.
"Yo, where is this little lady?" The smell of wine came to his face, and a hand stretched out from the oblique thorn to grab Qiao Ran.
Azuki let out a short scream before a hand covered her mouth.
"Don't attract patrolling officers and soldiers!" Qiao Ran said this sentence to the red bean before letting go of his hand.
She looked at the drunk man rolling on the ground with her lower body covered in surprise, and then looked up at Qiao Ran blankly: "Miss......"
Qiao Ran had already retracted her feet: fortunately, she had learned a few tricks to prevent wolves, and before the drunken man's hand touched her, she instinctively reacted and kicked her with a flirtatious leg.
"That's amazing!" Seeing Qiao Ran kick the drunk man so that he couldn't get up, Hongdou reacted in hindsight and couldn't help muttering.
"Kick in the right place, even a weak female streamer can put down a man......" Qiao Ran said this, suddenly stopped, pondered for a moment, she looked at Hongdou, "Forget it, let's go!" ”
At that moment, a gong sounded.
Smoke billowed in front of them, and many people in the vicinity ran out of their homes, and some even rushed over with buckets. There were so many people, Hongdou breathed a sigh of relief, and sighed: "Now I'm relieved, I'm not afraid of encountering patrols." ”
Someone passed by them with a bucket of water, and Qiao Ran stopped her: "This little brother, what happened?" ”
"Don't you have eyes? You ......" was in a hurry to fight the fire when he was suddenly blocked by a woman, and anyone was angry, but this anger suddenly disappeared a lot when he saw the appearance of the woman who stopped him, and the guy looked like a man blushed and his voice softened a little, "The coffin shop in front of me is on fire, do you see?" It's the Dong family's coffin shop! ”
