Chapter 147: Limit the date for solving the case
In both cases, the deceased were ordinary people, with no prominent background, no grudges with others, and they couldn't be more plain.
If someone wants to kill a house of people in a house without alarming their neighbors, they need to be cut off or unable to make a sound in an instant.
But the results of the autopsy were that they were cut with blunt knives, and none of the bodies had more than one wound, which was not caused by a sharp weapon at all.
This means that from the first slash to their death, there is enough time to make a sound.
But there is no partiality, if the neighbors live far away, it is just that, the houses in the village are next to each other, lest they lose an inch of land to others.
Moreover, the houses are not large, and there is no exclamation when there is a tragedy between the walls, which is really weird.
The fool said that the other party used a sword, but neither of the two deceased died from sword wounds, it seems that the fool's words are really useless.
Unconsciously, let out a sigh.
Yuan Qingling's hand climbed up his neck, and then soothed his brows, and asked in a daze, "You sighed?" What's wrong? ”
Yu Wenhao hurriedly hugged her, "It's okay, I just hope you get better soon." ”
"Lie!" Yuan Qingling's voice was hoarse, with the sleepiness of when he was about to fall asleep, he moved his body, rested his feet on his legs, and found a more comfortable position that would not suppress the wound, "You have something on your mind, it's a matter of the case, right?" ”
Yu Wenhao reached down and carefully moved her injured leg better, "Why are you so smart?" You know what I'm thinking. ”
"yes, you can't hide it from me." Yuan Qingling opened his eyes and looked at him worriedly, "Tell me, maybe I can help you." ”
Yu Wenhao nodded her lips and said, "There are no clues left in these two cases, and I don't know what weapon the murderer used, but it seems that he casually found a woodcutter and went in to cut people." ”
"Did a madman do it?" Yuan Qingling asked.
"It looks like a madman did it, but it won't be, because there are no clues, murder weapons, eyewitnesses...... Forget it, not to mention eyewitnesses, no one even heard the screams, and the madman couldn't have planned so thoroughly. ”
Yuan Qingling felt very strange, "Are the houses far apart?" If you say that you cut down a lot of people, it is impossible not to make a sound. ”
"This is the strange place, the houses are very close to each other, and the time to cut people is not short, and the victim is stunned and does not make a sound."
"Unless, unless, first, I was stunned." Yuan Qing Ling said.
Yu Wenhao shook his head, "No, because in both cases, there was a baby who did not die, and the baby was awake and had not inhaled any ecstasy." ”
"That's weird." Yuan Qingling thought for a while, "Could it be that the murderer was killed with a knife?" But with so many people, even if they were killed with a single sword, it was impossible to kill a few people in an instant. ”
"There are many wounds on the bodies of the deceased, and it is not a one-stroke killing." Yu Wenhao didn't want to tell her such a cruel thing at night, so he reached out and gently stroked her eyes, "Okay, don't talk about it, go to sleep." ”
"Oh," Yuan Qingling slowly closed his eyes, and suddenly asked again, "Then have you seen the corpse?" ”
"I haven't seen it, but the coroner and the cooner have come to the same conclusion."
Yuan Qingling didn't know how to investigate the case, and when he saw that he didn't help, he didn't ask, lest he be even more unable to sleep.
The men of the last dynasty were the most heroic.
No matter how warm the quilt is, how soft the woman in the quilt is, you have to get up and prepare for the third watch.
Yu Wenhao ordered someone to take his clothes to the next room last night, and after he got up, he went directly to the next door to change his clothes, rinse his mouth and wash his face, etc., so as not to wake up Yuan Qingling.
Yuan Qingling slept very deeply because of the medicine, and he didn't know when he got up and went out.
Before Yu Wenhao went out, he instructed Qiluo, who was waiting, "You let the kitchen stew bird's nest first, and it is most suitable for the princess to eat when she gets up, remember, the goat's milk for stewed bird's nest must be fresh, and the princess doesn't like sweets very much, so put as little sugar as possible." ”
Qiluo smiled slightly, "I know, the prince is really careful." ”
How could she not know that the prince was so careful before?
Yuwen Hao's eyebrows are flying, she can't be careful if she is not careful, she seems to understand everything, but in fact, she is very rough, if he doesn't remember more, she will definitely not be conscious.
After almost losing her pain once, Yu Wenhao especially knows the meaning of cherishing the two words.
Above the imperial court, civil and military officials were lined up.
Emperor Ming Yuan boarded the dragon chair, sat down slowly, and shouted three times at the bottom, he glanced at it majestically, "Get up, there is something to say!" ”
Chu Shoufu stood up first and said: "Your Majesty, the two recent massacres in Beijing have caused the people to discuss, and if the murderer is not ambushed for a day, the people will not be at ease, and for a long time, people will be panicked!" ”
Shoufu spoke, and naturally a group of people below seconded it.
Yu Wenhao's heart sank slightly, sure enough, he had to talk about this case.
Emperor Ming Yuan looked at Yu Wenhao, "What progress has the case made now?" ”
If there is a little progress, it can be perfunctory, but there is no progress at all, so Yu Wenhao can only shake his head and say: "Back to the emperor, there has been no progress in the case so far, there are no murder weapons, witnesses, clues, etc." ”
Emperor Ming Yuan's face capitalized the word displeasure.
Why is this stupid son so sincere?
Chu Shoufu said: "The prince took over Jingzhao Mansion at the beginning, I'm afraid that he is not familiar with handling the case, why don't you transfer this case directly to the Criminal Department?" It is also good to ask the Criminal Department to solve the case as soon as possible and calm the panic of the people. ”
Once the case was transferred to the Criminal Department, it was in the face of Yu Wenhao that he was incompetent and useless.
Moreover, even Emperor Ming Yuan's face was slapped together, this is the Jingzhao Mansion Yin you appointed.
Emperor Ming Yuan was even more unhappy, but he had always been polite to Shoufu and said: "Don't worry, since the King of Chu is not familiar with it, then give him a day to familiarize him with it, and this case is just right for him to use to prove his ability." ”
He looked at Yu Wenhao, "I and Shousuke both have high hopes for you, you can't let Shousuke down." ”
Yu Wenhao said: "The minister will try his best to solve the case." ”
"And as soon as possible!" Chu Shoufu turned to look at Yu Wenhao, "Lord Wang, the impact of this case is too great, if the murderer is not caught as soon as possible, I am afraid that the murderer will attack again and hurt innocent people again, Lord Wang thinks, how many days can this case be solved?" ”
How many days? Yu Wenhao sneered in his heart, it may not be possible for a few months.
"Three days?" Chu Shoufu asked again.
King Ji came out and said: "Father, Chu Lao, this case is too complicated, I'm afraid that it won't be clear in three or five days, why don't you give the fifth brother ten days?" ”
The Criminal Department Shangshu said: "If it is delayed for another ten days, I am afraid that the murderer will be dispatched again, the emperor and the minister suggest that seven days is appropriate, if Jingzhao Mansion is in need, the Criminal Department can help at any time." ”
Yu Wenhao listened to them sing and harmonize, and secretly considered it in his heart.
Now I don't have a clue at all, don't say ten days, even ten more days.
However, when it comes to this, he must also make a commitment.
Thinking of this, he arched his hand and said, "Your Majesty, then seven days!" ”
Emperor Ming Yuan nodded and said, "Okay, within seven days, you must solve this case." ”
Emperor Ming Yuan did not say whether he would cut officials and lose his post after he could not solve the case, but there is no need to say that if the king of Chu could not solve the case, he would lose the hearts of the people in the court or in the people.
