Chapter 13: Homicide
Xuan Mo's heart moved: "You know? ”
Changshu's tone was not shocked: "There is such a big thing happened to a general in Fengyang City, how could I not know that after the Guo family's accident, Fengyang City was under martial law for a while, and everyone in the village knew about it." ”
Xuan Mo fell silent.
Changshu said lightly: "In the past, when the border was still guarded by General Wen, the Guo family was quite respected by the people, and after the Wen family's accident, the Guo family has become more and more out of order in recent years, and there are not a few children in the family who bully men and women, so it is not surprising that there is such an end." ”
"Miss Changshu seems to be quite clear about the affairs of the imperial court."
Changshu's eyes drooped slightly, and her tone was flat: "I have saved a few officials before." ”
Xuan Mo nodded.
He didn't realize what Changshu's words meant at this time, and only thought that Changshu was just seeing a few court officials, so he didn't mean to ask more at all.
After all, this girl is a doctor, and her medical skills seem to be very good, and it is not surprising that she has treated several patients with more valuable status.
Changshu packed the medicinal herbs and threw them to Xuan Mo, and said lightly: "Cook each dose twice, fry three bowls of water into one bowl, take it once in the morning and evening, and it will be good in three days." ”
Xuan Mo looked at the three packets of medicinal herbs in front of him and was silent: "I'll come by myself?" ”
Changshu was surprised and asked, "Otherwise?" ”
"Do you want me to eat me and live in mine, and you still want me to serve you?"
Without waiting for him to speak, Changshu rolled her eyes and said as a matter of course: "If you are really sick and can't get up, for the sake of the four words of benevolence of the doctor, I don't mind serving you with tea and water, but aren't you jumping around here." ”
Xuan Mo glanced at her silently: "I know." ”
Changshu shook his hand and threw a bottle of medicine to him: "This is for external use, to remove saprophytic muscle, which can promote wound healing." ”
Xuan Mo accurately raised his hand to catch it, looked down at the bottle of medicine, and smiled dumbly for a while.
By the evening, Changshu's yard was already full of all kinds of flower petals, and she and Xuan Mo both tacitly agreed that they did not continue to talk about the Guo family or the daughter of the county lord of Qingping, whether they were not interested or deliberately avoided talking about it, in short, the two of them reached a consensus on this issue.
Xuan Mo was quite interested in what Changshu said about extracting the flower dew, and he was idle sideways, so he cooperated with Changshu to toss all kinds of utensils made of transparent glass or gold, silver and jade in her pharmacy for most of the day.
Watching Changshu put the freshly picked flowers into the steamer, and then add water to cover the petals, the steam in the steamer condensed into water droplets through a long pipe and fell into a specially-shaped bottle, Xuanmo squatted in front of these bottles and jars, and asked curiously: "Is this okay?" ”
"Nope."
Changshu's face was serious, and he carefully controlled the heat under the steamer: "This is just the first step." ”
Xuan Mo nodded and did not speak.
Changshu was actually not very satisfied with these rough utensils, after all, these things were opaque, and she couldn't see what was going on inside, but if she wanted to build a transparent steamer...... Something made of glass will explode if she's not careful, and she doesn't have that much glass for her to toss.
When the first drop of water fell into the bottle, the rich floral fragrance began to spread in this small courtyard, Changshu frowned and thought about it, and without hesitation, she found a stopper and plugged the mouth of the bottle.
To do this, you need to have a lot of patience.
I finally collected a bottle, and there were already many discarded petals piled up under the two pear blossom trees in Changshu's yard.
Xuan Mo felt distressed when he looked at it.
It's also a waste.
"Miss Changshu, what are you going to do next?"
Changshu cautiously picked up the bottle of shoddy flower dew and walked towards the pharmacy, hearing him ask, he waved his hand very casually: "You don't have to worry about the rest, you go back to the room to rest, I will clean up these things myself." ”
She couldn't get anything from these flowers alone, and she had to add a few herbs to it.
Of course, more importantly, she didn't intend to let Xuan Mo know what she was going to get.
"Miss Changshu."
Xuan Mo wanted to ask a few more questions, but suddenly he felt a gust of wind blowing through his ears.
Changshu looked over consciously.
Xuan Mo met the light in her eyes, paused, and responded: "Okay, then I'll go back first, if there is anything you need my help with, Miss Changshu can call me." ”
Changshu looked at him with a frown.
Xuan Mo's face did not change and said: "What else is the matter with the girl?" ”
Changshu turned her head and said in a calm tone: "It's okay." ”
Xuan Mo finally breathed a sigh of relief in his heart.
Back in his room, Xuan Mo closed the door unhurriedly, looking no different from usual, but after the door was completely closed, he lowered his voice and looked at Qingcuo who appeared in front of him: "What's wrong?" ”
Qing Cuo didn't understand why his master was in a posture of planning to stay here, and he had to lower his voice to secretly act like a thief when he said a word: "We...... The body of Guo Yan, the eldest son of the Guo family, was found. ”
Xuan Mo stood up violently, and his face turned cold when he looked at it: "What's the matter?" ”
Aren't the people of the Guo family already dead?
Qing Cuo said: "To be exact, it was not we who found it, but someone threw his body to the Dadu Protector in Zhennan. ”
"Most of the people in Zhennan live in an independent courtyard of the Wutong Inn, and Guo Yan's body was found behind the rockery in his yard, and no one knows when or who threw it there."
Xuan Mo's eyes narrowed slightly, and his expression was cold: "What about the specifics?" ”
Knowing what he wanted to hear, Qingcuo said: "Guo Yan was covered with bruises, and after an examination, it was found that he was imprisoned and tortured before his death, and there were countless wounds all over his body, but there were no traces of Chinese medicine on his body. ”
"Between his death and when his body is found, it won't take more than four hours."
"What is Shu Zhao's reaction?"
"Dadu Hu is furious, and he has ordered someone to summon Gongzi Xie."
"The murder case has not been solved for a long time, and Dadu Hu seems to want to cure Gongzi Xie for dereliction of duty."
Xuan Mo disagreed: "He is not Xie Yu's peak, and he doesn't have the ability to put his hand on the head of the Xie family." ”
Qing Cuo glanced at him: "Dadu Hu suspects that the Shu family's murder was done by the master, and the purpose is to deal with him, and by the way, the master can also kill chickens and monkeys and eliminate dissidents." ”
Before Xuan Mo could speak, he heard Qing Cuo continue: "Dadu Hu wants you to give him an explanation, otherwise he will go to the book to read a copy of the master, because he went to the military camp to find the master, but the master left his post without permission and was not in the military camp. ”
Xuan Mo: "!! ”
What about the face?
