Thinking of this, Han Changdu's heart jumped and asked, "Is Qiao Fang a native of Xiupingfang?" ”

Qiao Yanda said: "The villain has lived in Xiupingfang since he was a child, and he has been doing it for thirty years. ”

Han Changdu's heart sank, how did the murderer know about a deserted mansion that even people who had lived in Xiupingfang for thirty years didn't know?

Yao Qi quietly walked to Han Changdu's side and said in a low voice: "My lord, it seems that this murderer is very familiar with the Li Fang of Chang'an City, at least he is very familiar with these remote Li Fang, the last time he committed the crime was in Jinchang Fang, this time he was in Xiuping Fang, and they all chose the ownerless deserted house, how could it be so coincidental?" ”

"There's no such thing as a simple coincidence." Han Changdui pondered: "The case in Jinchangfang, judging from the traces of the scene, there is more than one person who committed the crime, after the disappearance of Lord Rong, Fuxiang also disappeared together, although it cannot be determined that she must be one of the murderers, but one of the perpetrators must be proficient in medical skills, Fuxiang is naturally proficient in medical skills, but she is not from Chang'an." ”

"It's too easy to find someone in Chang'an City who is familiar with the house." Yao Qi said calmly: "Don't say anything else, the tooth people in the tooth shop know everything about the houses in Chang'an City, but this kind of deserted house is not easy to buy and sell, but I am afraid that the tooth people are not as familiar as the beggars." ”

Han Changwan nodded thoughtfully, looked up and asked Qiao Yanda, who was leading the way, "Are there many beggars in Xiupingfang?" ”

Hearing this, Qiao Yanda was really stunned for a moment, how could he accept this, in a poor and remote neighborhood like Xiupingfang, can there be fewer beggars?

Not only are there beggars, but also homeless people who have fled the wilderness, and idle little bastards, all of whom are many of these southern neighborhoods.

It's just that during the day, these beggars are all gathered in a few rich and wealthy workshops to make a living, and the Xiuping workshop is only a place for them to come back and sleep at night.

However, beggars are also formed into gangs, and the beggars who are numerous occupy the spacious and complete deserted houses, while the beggars who are left alone can only pick up the leftovers.

There are many beggars, the homeless people are prosperous, and ordinary people are only a little better than beggars, this is originally the most common thing in the southernmost few lanes of Chang'an City, but when Han Changdui asked like this, Qiao Yanda didn't know how to answer.

There are often officials walking around the workshop, asking some headless words, and finally with a bang, a big crime smashed on the head, Fang Zheng can't do it, the matter is small, and it is wronged to lose his life!

His face was embarrassed, and his words were vague: "Beggars, too, there are. ”

Han Changdui was very clear about Qiao Yanda's taboos, his expression remained unchanged, and he asked lightly: "Where do they usually gather, Qiao Fang knows it, right?" ”

Qiao Yanda was a little trembling: "Villain, villain knows, knows." ”

Han Changdui raised his head and looked up at the night, in the middle of the night, if the beggars were called over, it would be too loud and easy to cause panic, but as soon as the door opened, these beggars would definitely swarm away, and they couldn't find it.

The lesser of two evils, he quickly had an idea.

The deep winding alley is getting narrower and narrower, and there is no road on the right side at the end, and turning to the left, there is a narrow alley sandwiched between two walls, allowing only one person to pass.

This narrow alley is often walked, and the large area of damp moss under the walls is rubbed and messy, and the newly grown moss hides the mottled traces of rubbing, and the dark blue and dark gray of the ruined walls look very messy.

Yao Ji walked through the narrow alley with the lamp, and the road ahead was dark, with only two dim and faint lights shaking in front of him.

The dim lights flickered on the wall, and a trail of drag that scurled into the depths of darkness was particularly conspicuous.

Yao Qi paused, approached with a lantern, and looked up along the drag marks with a slightly solemn expression.

On both sides is the rammed wall, more than ten years ago the war burned almost the entire Chang'an City, Xiupingfang was not spared, the war left a scorched and damaged mark on the wall, the two walls became pitted, mud splashed on the wall.

This place is shady, there is no sunlight all year round, everywhere is damp, the earth rammed wall can even drip water, dark moss grows from the root of the wall to half a wall high, from this narrow alley to a trip, the clothes are dirty can not be seen.

(This chapter is not finished!) )

Chapter 586 The same way to die

Yao Ji carried the hem of the clothes that were covered with moss and dirty and couldn't be washed at all, and pursed her lips in disgust, knowing that it was such a place, she should have come out in a narrow night suit.

She lowered the hem of her dress and looked up again.

Just like the hem of her clothes that is so dirty that she can't see people, most of the places where the moss is rubbed off on this wall are located at the root of the wall, which is the trace left by the hem of the clothes and shoes when people walk, and the higher place is the buttocks rubbed, but the position of the drag mark in front of her is very high, Yao Ji compared, this drag mark is just about the same height as her shoulder.

She raised her hand and gestured over her shoulder, as if a person had carried something heavy on her shoulder, walked through this narrow alley, and then the weight rubbed against the wall, leaving traces.

Han Changdui stopped when he heard the footsteps behind him, turned around and saw Yao Qi's appearance, and asked suspiciously, "What's wrong?" ”

Yao Qi pointed to the drag mark and said, "My lord, this trace was just left, and it was carried over with something." ”

Han Changdui took a closer look, and also found that something was wrong, and nodded: "Indeed, look where this trace leads." He glanced at Yao Qi: "The person who left this trace should not be tall, at least shorter than you." ”

Yao Qi's mind moved, and he lowered his voice and said, "Humble remember, Fu Xiang is half a head shorter than humble position. ”

There was no evidence of anything, it was just a guess on the part of the two, and the two of them said that, and continued to walk forward with the lantern.

The alley was very deep, and the trail left on the wall was all the way to the end of the alley.

At the end of the narrow alley, a few low-rise houses came into view, the black windows seemed to be a deep whirlpool that could swallow people's hearts, and the tattered window paper rose and fell with the wind, making a soft noise.

A few pieces of broken roof tiles fell from the ground, and it can be vaguely seen that they are green tiles, so it seems that these houses were very good houses decades ago, but they have been deserted for a long time, uninhabited and uncared for, and slowly become like this.

It is estimated that in another ten years, these buildings will collapse into ruins.

Therefore, no matter how magnificent the mansion is, it must be popular.

Han Changdui turned his head and saw that the strange drag mark on the wall had disappeared here.

The footprints in the mud were stacked on top of each other, and it was impossible to tell who had walked through them.

A serious question came from the tattered window, it was Leng Linjiang who was asking something, but after he finished asking, he didn't hear anyone answer.

Han Changdui and Yao Qi glanced at each other, and hurriedly walked over, but before they reached the door, the thick bloody gas made people breathe sluggishly.

Han Changdui chuckled in his heart, and suddenly felt ominous.

Half of the door was hanging on the door frame and crumbling, and the other half of the door fell to the ground, with a thick layer of dust on it.

The night breeze traveled through the unsheltered room, blowing up a thin layer of dust that hung in mid-air and rose and fell.

Fortunately, it was already summer at this time, and if it was colder, I was afraid that this house would freeze to death.

Han Changdui walked in a little anxiously, and saw the woman lying in a pool of blood at a glance.

The woman looked very similar to Lord Rong when she died, a bright red dress soaked in blood, her face was cut by a knife, and she couldn't see her original appearance at all, and the corners of her mouth on both sides were open to the root of her ears, as if she showed a weird smile.

His heart suddenly fell to the bottom, the last trace of illusion was shattered, and the anger in his heart was uncontrollable.

It's that guy, it's that guy again!

The death is the same as the death of Lord Rong, and it is no surprise that the dilapidated wall is also painted with blood donation and the same pattern as the place where Lord Rong died, which looks like runes.

It's just that these runes are too weird, Bao Cheng racked his brains and couldn't unlock them, and the master of Qimen was in retreat at this time, not to mention outsiders, even if it was a doorman, he couldn't see it.

In this provincial test, Bao Cheng won a ranking that is not up or down, and in the palace test, I don't know whether Emperor Yong'an intends to release water to promote, or Bao Cheng has used his life's luck, and he has ordered the second and forty-third places, although the ranking is not high, but it is already justifiable (this chapter is not finished!). )

Chapter 586 The same way to die

The body of the Jinshi.

The rest of the days are waiting for the official to be awarded, and the Jinshi is ordered, and the place to go is nothing more than to go to the Hanlin Academy to boil up the qualifications, step by step to the six departments, the ultimate goal is to squeeze into the cabinet, or release the county order to do some practical deeds, and then transfer back to the capital to be a Beijing official, and be a feudal official in various provinces.

But Bao Cheng will neither go to the Hanlin Academy, nor will he be released, his entry into the Internal Guard Division is already a certainty, and there is no change, and unraveling these runes is the first serious errand he did when he entered the Internal Guard Division, if he messes up, he is afraid that he will be ridiculed as a charred straw bag.

He worked hard, even if he didn't ask for help, he had to do this errand beautifully, and he had begun to close the door for the past few days.

Leng Linjiang heard the footsteps, turned his head and saw Han Changdui and Yao Qi, the serious look on his face dissipated in an instant, he breathed a sigh of relief, and pounced as if he had seen a life-saving straw: "Ouch, you are here, you are all in a hurry to kill me." ”

He pounced halfway, saw Han Changwan and Yao Qi quietly take a step back, and saw Qiao Yanda following behind the two, Qiao Yanda was slightly open, looking at him in astonishment, he couldn't help but stiffen his face, and made up dryly: "It's not easy to walk on the road." ”

Han Changwan was even more embarrassed than Leng Linjiang, pursed his lips, and said "um".

Yao Ji carried the hem of his clothes, walked over in three steps and two steps, and raised his eyebrows unrelentingly: "Lord Shaoyin, you have to compensate for the skirt of the humble position!" ”

In one sentence, the embarrassing situation in front of him was resolved, and Leng Linjiang nodded again and again: "Compensation, compensation, go back and compensate you for your two skirts." ”

It had been some time since the body was discovered, and the night wind blew into the house in bursts, and the bloody smell in the room not only did not dissipate at all, but became heavier than before.

Han Changdui glanced at the corpse, and his face sank unconsciously: "Yungui, how is it?" ”

Leng Linjiang had seen the tragic situation of Lord Rong when he died, and sighed: "Like that of Jin Changfang, the death of the deceased is also the same as that of Lord Rong." He paused slightly: "It should be said that the way to die is the same as that of Lord Rong." ”

"So, is that her?" Han Changdui hesitated.

Leng Linjiang knew who Han Changdui was asking, shook his head, and his face was full of bitterness: "The face is spent, I really can't see it, and this woman's belly," he said tactfully: "The belly is empty, and the Jingzhao Mansion has not found out how many months this woman is pregnant." ”

Han Changdui breathed a shallow sigh and said to Leng Linjiang: "Let your people go with Qiao Fang, go and call the beggars in this fang, I see that there are still empty houses next to it, ask them first, have anyone inquired about the abandoned houses in Chang'an City recently." ”

Leng Linjiang hurriedly called He Denglou, explained, and asked him to bring all the people and go out with Qiao Yanda.

When Han Changdui and Leng Linjiang were talking, Yao Qi had already roughly inspected the body, stood aside, and took a handkerchief to wipe the blood stains on his hands.

Leng Linjiang looked at the blood-soaked handkerchief and sighed: "Go back and wash it with mugwort leaf water, it looks weird and disgusting." ”

Yao Qi glanced at Leng Linjiang and sighed: "It's as if you touch less." ”

Leng Linjiang pouted and smiled: "Less than you." ”

The servant of Jingzhao Mansion stood beside the corpse, holding the examination booklet in one hand, writing frantically with a pen in the other, and muttering something in his mouth.

It sounds like I'm scared and talking nonsense.

Yao Ji tiptoed over and patted him on the shoulder with a "snap".

The man jumped up in fright, turned his head and saw Yao Qi, and immediately breathed a sigh of relief, his face was pale, his mouth trembled, and he was about to cry: "Yao, Yao joined the army, people are scared to death!" ”

Yao Qi smiled narrowly: "Zhang Qizuo, why are you here, your master?" ”

Zhang Youli wrote the inspection booklet, and said without raising his head: "Master said that I have also studied for several years, let me come out to practice and experience by myself." ”

Yao Qi looked at Zhang Youli's still green face, and then looked at the corpse, the unreliable master in his thirties was lazy, forcing a fifteen or sixteen-year-old boy who had not yet left the school to face such a terrifying scene, really, thinking about it, it was worth gloating three laughs.

She pursed her lips and shook her head with a smile: "Poor yo, the first time I did my own autopsy, I ran into (this chapter is not finished!) )

Chapter 586 The same way to die

It's so scary, Zhang Chengzuo, you'd better go to the Recommending Fu Temple. ”

Zhang Youli was stunned for a moment: "Why are you going to recommend Fu Temple?" ”

Yao Qi pouted at the corpse: "You, aren't you afraid of nightmares?" ”

Zhang Youli shuddered, afraid, how not afraid, he was about to cry in fright, since he entered the business of pretending, he has never seen such a miserable corpse.

But how could he admit that he was afraid in front of the girl, once such a thing as face fell to the ground, it would be broken and couldn't be picked up!

Zhang Youli's heart was about to jump out of his mouth suddenly, his face was tense and numb, his smile was stiff, and he still shook his head with his head held high: "What are you afraid of, I am avenging the deceased, which is a great merit." ”

Yao Qi patted Zhang Youli on the shoulder appreciatively: "Good boy, I have a good tranquilizer, remember to go to me to get it." ”

"Oh, yes!" Zhang Youli subconsciously responded, suddenly felt that something was wrong, and stared at a pair of black grape-like eyes: "Who is the child, you are just a few years older than me!" ”

"You're a kid when you're older!" Yao Qi waved his hand, walked to Han Changdui's side, changed his face, and no longer had the cunning style when he joked about Zhang Youli, but with a serious face: "My lord, the deceased is wearing Shu brocade and embroidered pomegranate blossoms." ”

Han Changdui looked at Yao Qi and teased Zhang Youli, and unconsciously brought a smile on his face, but at this time, when he saw Yao Qi with a straight face, he suddenly felt bored, and said with a thin expression: "Shu brocade is expensive, and idlers can't afford it, and the pattern of pomegranate blossoms means that there are many sons and many blessings, and it is appropriate to wear it on her body." ”

Yao Qi heard that Han Changdu's cold words were mixed with a hint of anger, and she was puzzled, she didn't know how she provoked him, and she couldn't think of things she couldn't understand, so she simply didn't want to, and turned her head to look at Zhang Youli's inspection booklet.

Leng Linjiang heard the word "Shu brocade", his heart was already heavy, Shu brocade is known as expensive as gold, it is no longer a simple ordinary people can not afford it, Shu brocade clothing, as if it has become a symbol of status, rich and noble people have flocked to it.

As the princess of the Marquis of Anning, there are naturally a lot of clothes made by Shu brocade.

Han Changdui saw that Leng Linjiang's face was not good, and sighed slightly, although the body was ruined and not so easy to identify, but since the wife of the prince of the Anning Marquis Mansion had been missing for three days, even if the body was not her, she was probably in a bad situation at this time.

He raised his hand and patted Leng Linjiang's shoulder: "I'm not very familiar with her, you tell me in detail what's going on." ”

Leng Linjiang thought about it: "Sheng Siyuan, the son of the Marquis of Anning, is the second son of the Marquis of Anning, his elder brother Sheng Sijian died of illness four years ago, and he was made the son, twenty-three years old this year, and the wife of the prince is the son of the Marquis of Anchang, An Jinyu, who is seventeen years old this year, and she married into the Marquis of Anning a year ago. ”

"Marquis Anchang's Mansion?" Han Changwan was stunned for a moment: "Is it the Anchang Marquis Mansion that Princess Rongzhen married?" ”

"Yes." Leng Linjiang nodded and said: "An Jinyu is the eldest princess of Rongzhen and An Changhou's concubine, the eldest princess of Rongzhen died of childbirth when she gave birth to An Jinyu, and An Jinyu also has two brothers, four sisters and a younger brother. Among them, the eldest daughters An Jinyue and An Jinyu were born by Princess Rongzhen, and the other children were born from An Changhou's concubine. ”

The affairs of the Marquis of Anchang Mansion are not hidden in the capital, and Yao Qi has also heard of it, and he sighs every time he hears it.

But Han Changdui also knew the situation of the Marquis of Anchang's Mansion, and when he was in Jiannan Road, he planted many eyes and ears in the capital, and collected the secrets of the various mansions that he inquired about into a book, and he would return them every three months.

But he can't show that he knows all these things, after all, he has been far away from the capital, he only entered the capital this year, and in just one year, he can know the secrets of the various prefectures, which is not a normal thing, and it will arouse suspicion.

He was stunned and dazed: "This, eldest princess Rongzhen, can you tolerate it?" ”

Hearing this, Yao Qi glanced at Han Changwan in astonishment, as far as she knew, King Han had accepted countless beautiful concubines and gave birth to a bunch of concubines and concubines, many of which he couldn't even recognize, she always thought that under the influence of her ears and eyes, Han Changwan also recognized such a thing as taking concubines.

After all, it is the ancients, and the ancients paid attention to spreading their branches and leaves.

But listening to Han Changdu's words, he didn't seem to agree with this approach.

(This chapter is not finished!) )

Chapter 586 The same way to die

Leng Linjiang didn't think about it so much, and sighed helplessly: "The eldest princess Rongzhen has not been pregnant in the past four years since she got married. ”

He said that and looked at Han Changdui and Yao Qi.

The wife has not been pregnant for four years, as long as An Changhou is willing, such a thing as taking a concubine, even if Princess Rongzhen is the sister of Emperor Yong'an, she has no reason to stop it.

However, An Jinyu's disappearance should have nothing to do with the many complicated wives and concubines in the Marquis of Anchang's mansion, and the concubines and concubines have little to do with it.

Han Changwan glanced at the corpse, put aside the matter of An Changhou's Mansion for the time being, and continued to ask, "What is the relationship between An Jinyu and Sheng Siyuan?" ”

Leng Linjiang was embarrassed: "I don't have much contact with them, but this time she disappeared, and I heard from Shizi that she was more than eight months pregnant." ”

Han Changwan nodded, although this kind of thing is not easy to speculate, but An Jinyu has only been married for a year, and she has been pregnant for more than eight months, thinking that the relationship between husband and wife should not be bad, he looked up at Zhang Youli.

Leng Linjiang hurriedly called Zhang Youli: "Zhang Chengzuo, can the inspection booklet be memorized?" ”

Zhang Youli let out an "ah" and said in a panic: "Remember, remember." ”

Leng Linjiang said helplessly: "Then tell me, what has been inspected?" ”

Zhang Youli broke out in a cold sweat inexplicably, flustered and helpless, and only held back the word "yes" for a while, facing Han Changdui, let alone reply, he didn't even dare to breathe.

Yao Qi walked over slowly, looked down at the trembling inspection booklet in Zhang Youli's hand, as if he had seen his words for the first time, and exclaimed: "Ouch, Zhang Chengzuo, your writing is so good, and the inspection record is so detailed, I can read it down." ”

Hearing this, Zhang Youli's nervous mind suddenly relaxed, lowered his head and looked at the examination booklet, and stumbled: "Back to Lord Shaoyin, the words of the envoy, villain, villain found out that the deceased was a woman, about 15 to 18 years old, died, lost too much blood, the time of death was from the beginning of the year to the beginning of the child, the deceased died pregnant, but the fetus was taken away, the villain, the villain could not tell how long the deceased was pregnant." ”

He stumbled at the beginning, and as he spoke, his mind relaxed completely, and the more he spoke, the more fluent he became, he walked in front of the deceased, pointed to the deceased's ruined face and said: "My lord, please look, although the deceased's face has been ruined, but there is no painful look on his face," he picked up the deceased's hand, pointed to the fingers and said: "The deceased has no traces of struggle, the nails are clean, and her limbs have no traces of being tied, the villain feels puzzled, she has not struggled in such a painful way to die, this is unreasonable, Maybe it's some *** analgesia, but the villain didn't find this kind of thing in this house. He pointed to a pool of blood that came out from under the corpse, and said in a deep voice: "The deceased has not been moved, this is where the crime occurred." ”
