Chapter 21: Ota is restless & turmoil continues
Waiting for a group of thousands of noble lords to finish the Yutian, and then get the land that looked obviously not done well, the group of eunuchs guarding the Yutian and the manor couldn't straighten their waists, and there was no one next to them, hunched over and half-supported to the dam.
"Cheer up! What do they look like one by one! ”
"If it's because you've touched your head today, think about how many lives you have!"
"That's you! He's dying, pull him up! ”
The leading eunuch does not often walk around the manor on weekdays, and as soon as he finished his work, he saw this group of people looking bitter haha, looking at the loss of people, walking over quickly, and scolding a few words in a low voice, but a little eunuch didn't know what was going on, and suddenly didn't stand firm, and actually rolled down from the three-foot-wide dam, and the people next to him didn't even pull him, and rolled a foot away in the imperial field.
"If you don't hurry up, come and pull him, hurry up!" The leading eunuch shouted, and a group of people rushed to help buy, and from a distance, it looked like a group of ants blocked together.
The five-foot-high dam is taller than half a person, it stands to reason that the little eunuch who rolled down was tired before, and now he was stunned, and when he saw someone coming to pull him, he slowly eased up, rubbed his waist, hurriedly got up, ran to the dam, and fell a big heel in less than three steps.
"There is no one here here, or everyone will suffer! Hurry up, little bunny! The leading eunuch was anxious, looked around, there were already many guards looking this way, the dragon raised his head and ploughed it was the same as a sacrifice, nothing was fine, if there was anything, as long as it was different from usual, then none of them could run away!
After falling twice in succession, the little eunuch, who was already young, had nothing to do, and quickly got up again, but he was quickly stunned and stepped on the ground at his feet, "Lord Steward!" There's something here! ”
The leading eunuch was impatient, and was about to urge it again, but who knew that the palace man who was rolling down suddenly came to say this, and he was stunned for a moment.
Also stunned were the guards who came to inspect, and the two guards reacted quickly, one pressed the hilt of the knife without saying a word, and the other quickly asked, "What is it?" It is a capital offense to cheat in this place! ”
"My lord, it's true!" The little eunuch swallowed his saliva, obviously afraid, and said with a stiff neck: "My lord, if you look at it for yourself, you are the slave who stumbles on this thing!" ”
The two guards looked at the ground near the little eunuch's feet, glanced at each other, and quickly made a decision, "You come up first." ”
The little eunuch was a little cowering, and was pulled up by the eldest brother of the guard, and before he could say how strong the other party was, he was cut off his hands and pressed to the ground.
"Adult ......"
"Look at him, a few of you, if anyone dares to move, don't blame us for being polite!" The other guard patted the knife on his body meaningfully, patted the shoulder of the leading eunuch, turned around and turned down the Tianba, the tattered strips of cloth on his body flew, replaced the hoe with the scabbard, and dug out a small piece of something in a moment, it was black, and you could see what it was immediately, but the guard didn't dig it, stood up, raised his hand, and the other guards who were not far away from this side soon came over.
The place where the two of them were guarded is now only one person.
The guard who turned over and went down to the field seemed to be half of the leader, looking at the guards who were gradually gathering over, and ordered: "Take them away, keep them under strict supervision, inform the Shanggong Bureau, invite Lord An to come over, strictly guard everywhere, and strictly prohibit anyone from entering or leaving." ”
"Yes!"
Yan Kuan frowned, staring at the black thing, and suddenly said, "Hurry up and invite Lord Zhou of Dali Temple." ”
A few people left in a hurry to give the order, Yan Kuan thought twice, and picked up some more soil, until the black thing revealed the whole picture, it was a shoe, shoes worn on human feet, ordinary black cloth shoes, at least hundreds of people today are wearing this kind of black cloth shoes, the skin is stained with mud, cold, and a few small spots are faintly visible.
……
When the new Dali Temple Zheng Zhou Ziming hurried over, Shanggong Lord An Yuan also arrived, and met each other, and several people hurried to Yan Kuan.
"Lord Yan."
"Lord Zhou, Lord Shanggong, Lord Xue." Yan Kuan hurriedly saluted and went straight to the point, "Please." ”
The crowd had dispersed all around, and in the dirt where Yan Kuan had moved away, a black cloth shoe was firmly worn on a person's foot, and the person, in the soil, at least below the calf, was buried in the soil.
The three people who came in a hurry suddenly had their hearts jumping, and they knew that it would not be a good thing when they were told that it would not be a good thing, so except for Xue Ziyi, the newly promoted Shaoqing who happened to be in one place, Zhou Ziming, the secretary of Dali Temple, and An Yuan, the lord of Shanggong, half of them didn't bring them, and after seeing this thing in the soil, I can't tell whether I should be glad that I didn't bring anyone or what to do.
There were still people turning over the soil in Yutian yesterday, just to ensure that there were no big clods and stones in Yutian, it stands to reason that there would not be even small pebbles, after all, the emperor and the East Palace would go to the ground, and there could be no mistakes.
And there have been people on duty here since half a month ago, not to mention today, this field has been turned over and sown today, which means that the explanation, it goes without saying.
"Dig, be careful." Zhou Ziming felt a headache and gave a point, the most ugly face was Shang Gong Lord An Yuan, followed by Yan Kuan, the deputy commander of the guards who temporarily supervised Yutian.
Although the guards haven't done a few pit digging jobs, they are surprisingly agile, and they may be soft enough here.
A short time later, a fresh female corpse was dug up.
It doesn't look very old, there are slight corpse spots, the time of death is within these two hours, and the weather is still relatively cold, no more than six hours, that is, it is very likely that this person should have been killed today and buried here.
It's just that today's clothes are almost the same, almost tattered, almost ugly, almost shoddy, and the identity is not easy to distinguish, the key is that they don't have much time.
This matter cannot be publicized, and the time for the royal driver to return to the palace cannot be delayed, that is to say, they still have two hours at most, and among them, there is still a finishing ceremony to go.
The faces of several people are not ordinarily ugly, Yan Kuan can't see why, he can judge the living, and the dead, he really only has a fur.
"Lord Zhou." Yan Kuan looked at Zhou Ziming and had high hopes.
Dali Temple investigates the case of officials and the second case of murder, and this kind of thing has to rely on them.
Zhou Ziming didn't shirk for half a minute, stepped forward to check, and suddenly beckoned, "Ziyi." ”
Xue Ziyi's face was as pale as paper, standing next to An Yuan as if he was whiter than An Yuan, looking listless, when he heard Zhou Ziming call him, he jumped directly off Tianba, passed in a few steps, and looked at the female corpse.
"It's time to check the wife." After watching silently for a while, Xue Ziyi looked at Zhou Ziming's eyes and said softly, "Hehe goose pear fragrance, this kind of fragrance, sweet but not greasy, has a long aftertaste, a penny of spices is worth ten gold, only a woman can use it, but her fingers are thick, her complexion is yellow, her skin is saggy, and she will not be a person who can afford this kind of thing before she is alive." Her knees were red, she was injured before her death, and someone punished her. ”
After speaking, Xue Ziyi coughed so badly that Yan Kuan, a big man, couldn't look at it, and made a gesture to help him, but he was not appreciated.
"Yes, this is not the scene of the crime, and we have to re-examine it. Lord Shanggong, I'm tired of you, we will investigate the cause of death. Lord Yan, the rest ......" Zhou Ziming said half of his words.
"The guards won't drop the chain, don't worry!" Yan Kuan said that his face hurt, and they didn't know anything about how the corpse came in, let alone who got it in......
An Yuan had a cold face, "The little eunuch involved will soon be sent to the adult, and we will verify the identity immediately." ”
After assigning the focus, several people looked at the cafeteria again, and the two guards had already prepared black cloth and were ready to take the body away, just waiting for Zhou Ziming to speak.
"Let's move." Zhou Ziming watched silently, and suddenly muttered, "It's like this again......"
The rest of the people's faces turned pale, especially Yan Kuan, An Yuan frowned tightly, and his already cold face seemed to be frozen.
Also, I don't know how many people still know that this is not the first time that Ota has had an accident, nor is it the first corpse that has been dug up in Ota , let alone the first time that a dead woman has been involved......
