The ghost sent the gods, Xiao Qinglang reached out and pulled up her hanging hair. Between the dazzling and dazzling light and shadow, the gentle and skillful appearance surprised the Huang County Commander who was frowning.

But when he thought of the uncle's cold eyes, he could only shrink his neck and take a step back to sit in the corner, but he sighed in his heart that he was afraid that his own little abacus would not work, and he would not dare to rob him of the playboy's best friend even if he loved it.

Xu Chu's face turned red from this sudden closeness, but there was no disgust or rejection on his always cold face. Only a pair of bright eyes with shyness didn't know where to put it, and finally could only touch his hair dryly and reluctantly: "Thank you, son." ”

Xiao Qinglang's face did not change, he only looked at her and chuckled, and then let the two of them overlap under the sunlight faintly cast from outside the curtain.

The light and shadow are staggered, and the rendered car has a slight temperature, which also outlines Xiao Qinglang's hard and upright facial features. He has an excellent appearance, and at this time, he has a light smile on his veins, and he looks more and more handsome.

Along the way, the two didn't say more, but Huang Xianling hesitated and asked, "You two, I don't know what progress has been made in this case?" ”

His words broke the silence in the car, and Xu Chu pursed his lips and said, "It's quite rewarding." After that, she briefly recounted what Yu Jia asked before, and of course, the suspicions found in Zhang's accident room.

However, she said lightly, but she was confused by Huang County's order. Although I also feel that something is wrong, I always feel that there is no difference, is it possible that the harvest is Liu Jiaxing?

"But I don't know if Liu Jiaxing is dead or alive! Could it really be that he was the one who made Zhang's pregnancy in the first place, and now he came back and killed Zhang's just to avenge Zhang's abortion that day? "This is too unbelievable, even if there is a grudge, the root of the fault is because of him. That kind of unmarried pregnancy is always a woman's loss.

Besides, eight years have passed, and if it goes well, it is estimated that Liu Jiaxing should also marry a wife and have children.

Xu Chu shook his head, thought for a moment, and said, "Not to mention when Liu Jiaxing suddenly appeared after eight years. just said that if it was really him, then how did Liu Jiaxing enter Yu's house to commit murder, even if Xiaocui helped, it is estimated that a foreign man will not be able to escape the eyes of those aunts and subordinates in the house. ”

Xiao Qinglang nodded, frowned and added: "If what Xiaocui said is true, then who did Liu Jiaxing rely on to get in touch with the Zhang family?" There is also the tablet burned by the Zhang family, who is it, I don't think it is the unborn child. If my guess is correct, it should be Liu Jiaxing's, which means that in Zhang's heart, she has always thought that Liu Jiaxing is no longer alive. Also, where did the copper kettle for boiling water in Zhang's room go? ”

"Xiao Cui got up after hearing Yu Fugui arguing with Zhang's family, and stayed in Zhang's room but never saw any trace of Yu Fugui." Xu Chu was full of suspicions, and some strange hands simply compared the layout of the main courtyard on the carriage table, "Yu Fugui once said that he ate wine and was drunk and hazy, so even if he was angry, he shouldn't disappear in an instant." But Xiaocui just turned a corner from behind the wing, and it was only a few breaths, why didn't she see him? ”

"Then what if what Xiao Cui said is false?" Huang Xianling touched his head and questioned in a low voice.

However, Xiao Qinglang and Xu Chuju shook their heads and said in unison: "What she said was not fake. ”

Since what she said is not false, something must have gone wrong.

Fortunately, it only took two days for them to take over this case, and it is not a clueless and difficult case.

"Have you ever had someone find out what I wiped off that copper plate?" Xu Chu always felt that it should be extremely crucial evidence, but she could only guess that it could be embalmed, and it was not ordinary mercury and mercury, but she couldn't decide what it was.

Huang Xianling said with a sad face: "I looked for a lot of people, but I don't know what it is, after all, it's too little and it's just a thin layer, and it's not enough for people to check." ”

"That thing can be embalmed, maybe it will react with the copper plate, you might as well ask the master of the medical hall who concocted medicinal materials." Xu Chu hesitated for a moment, and then added, "Or send someone to secretly go to the place where bronze can be made and ask......

"Okay, I'll send someone later." With the direction left and right, he is motivated enough.

After returning to the county office, Xu Chu was worried about the case that had not been smoothed, and he saw that the table full of fat mountain treasures had no appetite at all, so he hastily moved his chopsticks a few times and stopped eating. Sure enough, he was used to eating delicate and delicate food with Xiao Qinglang, and now he felt that it was not in his taste when there were delicacies from the mountains and seas.

You must know that when she was at home in the past, she and her father were willing to buy a table for such a sumptuous meal during the Chinese New Year.

As soon as he thought of himself, he was afraid that it would be difficult to quit his appetite, so Xu Chu looked at Xiao Qinglang with a lot of grievances. That look, as much resentment as there is resentment, Xiao Qinglang was a little sluggish for a while, and he didn't even know where to use the hand holding the teacup.

After simply filling his stomach, Xiao Qinglang took out the tea cup that he had ordered Wei Guang to bring back, as well as the tea that was not too much.

"In addition to the foreign object on the copper plate, you also need to ask a doctor to identify what is in this tea." Xiao Qinglang and Xu Chu don't believe in any colorless and tasteless drugs, they need to know that the so-called drugs must be extracted from something, and they will inevitably have some original taste. And now even Ouchi has never had a drug that people can't detect, let alone a small Yu family.

"Hey, hey, this official will let people go to find the doctor of the Ping An Medical Center."

After all, it is the county order of the head of a county, and if he orders it, the people below will naturally not dare to discount it, so they can only follow it cautiously. Within half an hour, someone talked back and forth, saying that there was a presence in the teacup.

"Roll or not?" Xu Chu frowned and didn't know much.

Xiao Qinglang on the side explained: "It is said that the reed can make people light up and see ghosts, and it has been recorded in the "Compendium of Materia Medica" of the medical saint Li Shizhen that this thing laughs and drinks wine to make people laugh, and dance to drink wine makes people dance. To put it simply, this is what people call sweat medicine. ”

Although he said it lightly, he had already doubts in his heart. Although it can be psychedelic, it is not everything in this dynasty.

"This product is produced in the Western Regions, it is very poisonous, it can be hypnotized and anesthetized, and there are rumors that it can bring the dead back to life. When several countries in the Western Regions came to worship, they also paid tribute, but after being studied by the imperial doctor, it was listed as a forbidden drug, and even because of its medicinal properties, it was once called ghost ginseng. "Maybe Xiao Qinglang is not proficient in medical science, but when it comes to royal affairs, he knows it very well. However, since he was cultivated by the royal family since he was a child, of course, it is impossible to just act with the majesty of the prince, although he may not read all the books in the world, but he also knows a little about eight or nine times out of ten. And some of everyone's works are even more readily available, "Zhou Mi's "Sequel to the Miscellaneous Knowledge of Guixin - Charge Bu Lu" records: Thousands of miles west of the return to China, the production of a thing is extremely poisonous, all kinds of human form, if the form of ginseng, its chief name is called 'Charge Bu Lu'. The soil is several feet deep, and if a person touches it by mistake, he will die with its poisonous gas. Buried in the ridge, after the years and then take out and expose to dry, do not use other medicine to make it, every time a little grinding wine and drinking people, then the whole body is paralyzed and died, although the knife and axe do not know also. ”

In other words, the tea that Zhang asked Xiaocui to drink would make people unconscious and even hallucinate. What about Zhang's own? If she was killed without movement or pain, is it also because she misused it?

Xu Chu's brows became more and more furrowed when he heard this, that is to say, in addition to the forbidden medicine in the palace that appeared before, there was another drug that blindly involved the palace at this time. Was it just a coincidence, or was she looking in the wrong direction from the beginning?

If this case only inadvertently involved a fake copper plate, it would be a minor homicide. But if the Zhang family was killed by the people behind the scenes, then the matter would not be simple.

Seeing that Xiao Qinglang and Xu Chu looked solemn, Huang Xian Ling couldn't help but poke his head and spat at the mouth and continued: "The solid that Xu Chu scraped off from the copper plate should be a fake gold formed by the reaction of mercury and copper under a certain environment. In the past, there were many warlocks who deceived people by saying that they would turn stones into gold, and then deceived ignorant people. In addition, it is the method used by jewelry stores to plate gold and silver on the surface of some jewelry. ”

As soon as these words came out, Xu Chu sat up straight, and the thing attached to the copper plate was made of mercury.

There are no more than four places where mercury is used in the modern era. Where the Taoist priest heats the dansha, the tomb is used to embalm the corpse. There is also the mercury ointment used to treat rheumatic moss. Then there are the items that are commonly used in jewelry stores that can be gilded with silver and brass.

Speaking of which, the biggest suspect is still Yu Fugui.

However, not to mention Xu Chu, even Xiao Qinglang frowned and couldn't figure it out. If the case is really so simple, how can the doubts that appeared in Xiaocui's mouth be explained? And did Yu Fugui really use boiling water to burn his wounds, and how did he do it?

Can such a huge project be completed in an instant, moving people from the bed to the living room in a matter of breaths, and then faking the scene?

"It's so weird."

"What's more, everything is just our speculation, and the mercury on the copper plate alone does not convict anyone." Xiao Qinglang's expression was slightly relaxed, and he sighed and shook his head, "The prison is not as good as the things on the side, and there is nothing wrong with it." ”

There was silence in the room, and no one spoke for a long time. Xiao Qinglang saw that Huang County's order had not found anything else, so he ordered: "In addition to Xiao Cui, Lord Haolao will carefully check the rough mother-in-law Zhang Ma and her son Zhang Yuanheng in the kitchen of the Yu family. ”

Although according to the housekeeper Yu, the deed of sale and other contracts are complete, but Xu Chu is still a little uneasy. If you can find out the origin of the roots of the two people, it will naturally be the best.
