Chapter 142: The coffin is opened, the autopsy is carried out, and the master's family dies

Although it seems that King Qi's reaction is indeed a bit contrived.

The prince with such a noble identity actually showed such a sad expression on the death of a subordinate, and it was no wonder that Wang Su speculated on King Qi with a sinister heart.

If it weren't for the fact that he often heard that King Qi was kind-hearted, Wang Su would dare to conclude that King Qi was faking mercy.

can not stand the King of Qi for many years, the fame is far and wide, and the good deeds are one after another, plus he already loves poetry and songs, close to Confucianism, and those Confucian celebrities are naturally happy to help him promote his literary name.

Wang Su secretly slandered himself: I don't know if this Qi prince is really stupid or pretending to be stupid, don't you know the truth of Taoguang and self-defilement?

Although the king of Qi enjoys full dignity because of his status as the saint's brother, he can rely on blessings and misfortunes.

Do you know that this identity is not a double-edged sword?

The king of Qi is now about to become a saint, although now the saint is at the peak of the Spring and Autumn Period, and he reigns over the world.

But if there is a ......

Or a hundred years after the saint, King Qi is still in the prime of life, and now the prince is still young, how can he beat this King of Qi?

Even if the King of Qi is loyal, he can't stand the greed of there are always people in the court, greedy for the so-called dragon merit, and consciously gather around the King of Qi.

Even if the saint loves this brother so much, how can he not be wary of him?

Wang Su shook his head, that's it, these are all family affairs, and I am a grass people, so I am really worrying.

"My lord, I've found it all."

Wang Su and Deng Qing came out of the apricot orchard, and suddenly an embroidered man dressed as a scholar came up and said, "It's been sorted out and placed in the department." ”

Deng Qing nodded and looked at Wang Su.

Wang Su immediately understood what he meant, smiled, and said, "I haven't slept all night, I'm a little sleepy, I'll go back and rest first." Call me if you have something, you know where I am anyway. ”

Wang Su also deliberately yawned, indicating that he was indeed a little sleepy.

Deng Qing also smiled and said, "Okay, as soon as there is news, I will send someone to inform you." ”

Wang Su turned around, waved his hand and left.

He also understood what Deng Qing meant.

After all, Wang Su is no longer a member of the Embroidery Division, and it is already a violation of the rules of the Embroidery Division to let him follow the case, but fortunately, he does not have any contact with secrets, so it is not a big problem.

Besides, there is still Lao Guan's endorsement behind the two of them, what are you afraid of?

But if Wang Su is allowed to enter the embroidery department, it will be different, there are not only secret whistles and meticulous works coming and going in the embroidery department, but also many confidential files and files, and there are many people.

It's not that he can't believe Wang Su, worried that he "accidentally" saw something secret and told it, but that this is the rule.

Outsiders are not allowed to enter the embroidery department, this is a dead rule.

Wang Su had not made an exception at the beginning, and he would not do it now.

These are what Wang Su knows, but what he doesn't know is that Deng Qing is more afraid of what Wang Su saw than what Wang Su "accidentally" saw.

The matter over there in Yongzhou is about to settle, but I don't dare to ask Wang Su to go to Yongzhou at this time to ruin the good things of the capital.

The two said goodbye, and Deng Qing asked the embroidered man, "What is the result?" ”

The embroidered man said: "There are three reports of sneaky entry into the body, evil upper body, etc., waiting for you to open the coffin for autopsy." However, one of them was cremated. ”

"Cremated?" Deng Qing muttered silently.

He didn't think much about it, although most of the Tang Dynasty now advocate burial and pay attention to a burial for peace, but in fact, Tianjing is expensive, and the living can't afford to live in a house, how can there be a place for the dead?

Therefore, some families who have no money, and when someone dies in the family, they can only bury the person in a mass grave, or cremate them to ashes, put them in a small boxy box, and then bury them in the soil......

It's kind of a burial ground, isn't it......

Deng Qing made a quick decision, went back to the department to get the documents, took people, put on shovels, and went straight to the cemetery.

The cemetery keeper wanted to stop it, but when he saw Deng Qingliang come out of the waist card of the embroidered clothes division, and then saw that these embroidered clothes were all fierce and vicious, and those with thin arms and legs did not dare to stop it, so they let it go directly.

According to the list, Deng Qing and others quickly found the two graves, and after Deng Qing dispersed the few people who came to pay respects around, he gave an order, and his subordinates immediately excavated, carried out the coffin, and opened the coffin for autopsy.

As soon as the coffin board was lifted, a burst of rotten smell of corpses poured out, fortunately, it was not the first time that everyone had done this kind of thing, and they had already prepared, and took out the prepared wipes to cover their mouths and noses, so that they were not choked by this pungent smell.

Deng Qing walked in and took a look, his eyes widened, his pupils did not shrink, and sure enough, the corpses in these two coffins were also sucked until only one bone and skin remained.

And because the families of the two deceased were very poor and could not afford to buy good coffins and burial utensils, some insects were already slowly gnawing on the few remaining flesh and skin on the bones.

Ordinary people were afraid that they would vomit on the spot when they saw it, and everyone in the embroidery division twitched their eyelids slightly when they saw it, and then they got used to it.

Rare and strange, more often less strange.

"Let's do the autopsy."

Deng Qing said to the embroidery division.

"Whoa."

As soon as he took out the tools, he began to fiddle with the two bones, and after a while, the results were there.

"Lord Hui, these two people, the cause of death is exactly the same as the three found in the past few days, it can basically be concluded that it was the same murderer......

Deng Qing's face was gloomy, and his right hand clenched into a fist, exposing the green tendons.

Eventually, he exhaled and commanded, "You guys stay and settle the dead and bury them again." The rest of the people will go back with me and continue the investigation! Be sure to catch this thief! ”

"Whoa!"

-------------------------------------

After Wang Su and Deng Qing said goodbye, they turned a few corners in the endless crowd of people and incomplicated streets in Tianjing, and arrived at a no-man's corner, and after confirming that there was no tail behind him or someone else, he took out a note from his sleeve and confirmed the address, and then the true qi in his body was shocked, and the note was immediately shattered into countless "snowflakes".

Tightly dressed, he disappeared into the sea of people again.

"Oh-t!"

The little servant Wang Wu poured the foot-washing water in front of the door, looked at the somewhat dark foot-washing water, felt a little disgusting, and spit out a mouthful of phlegm on the ground.

He is not very old, and he can't afford to pay for him to study in the year, but fortunately, he doesn't want to read either, which can be regarded as the best of both worlds.

But he didn't have a book to read, so he could only inherit his father's business, and also go to those rich families to do long-term work and be a small servant.

Before he came, he thought it was a good thing.

First of all, being a small servant at least has some personal freedom, at least there is no need to be like those who are nominally subordinates, but in fact slaves, and their lives are all tied to the thoughts of the master's family.

And he has been working beside his father since he was a child, the main family is an official master, I don't know how much money he is greedy, he is quite generous, as long as he is happy to serve others, the silver is a lot of rewards.

This is how his father saved money to marry his daughter-in-law, and later he became the fifth king.

But later, the official went in, and I heard that he was caught by the embroidery department, and the whole family was copied away.

He didn't look at it at the time, but his father saw it and went home with a shocked face, saying that he had never seen so much money in his life.

It's a pity that he Wang Wu is not as good as his father, and he has just been introduced by someone to come to this helper.

I never thought that this master was neither an official nor a wealthy businessman, but an old man with a perverse personality.

And listening to the accent, they are not from Tianjing, looking at the way they search, they look like they are from the countryside.

It is said that his son is a wealthy businessman, but Wang Wu feels that most of them are bluffing.

Wang Wu can occasionally see those rich businessmen with heads and faces on the street, and the pomp and circumstance are not as good as those of the royal relatives and nobles, or those officials and lords wearing various official uniforms, but they can be regarded as luxurious.

Sometimes, when he passed by the Jiaofang Division (Note 1) and other places, he saw those rich businessmen holding their beautiful sisters one by one, and they were all envious.

What about this old man?

swishing all day long, not only did he not have the reward he originally hoped for, but even made it difficult in every possible way, trying to pick bones in the eggs, in order to deduct wages.

If his father hadn't told him that this was his first job, if he messed up, it would be difficult for others to introduce him to work in some people's houses in the future, and he would really be like a burden and quit.

Fortunately, I heard that this old man only lived for a few months, and Wang Wu thought that he would be happy after surviving these few months.

Life finally has some hope.

"Wang Wu!"

Someone shouted from inside the house.

"Huh!"

Wang Wu sighed, held back the unhappiness in his heart, and walked in quickly.

"Master, what do you command?"

The old man was lying on a wicker chair, dressed in brocade, with an arrogant expression, and ordered: "I am a little hungry tonight, and I want to eat a leg of mutton, you go and buy one and come back, and inform the kitchen to do it." ”

"Yes."

Because this old man is slamming the door, there are few small people in the house, all of them are Wang Wu who has just come out to do long-term work, and he has a lot of strength, and the price is cheap.

Although there are some disadvantages in doing things, and there is a lack of heat in all aspects, it is better to be cheap.

So these different chores, many times the same person is in charge.

Unfortunately, it was Wang Wu who washed his feet, and it was Wang Wu who bought vegetables.

Wang Wu went to the account office to ask for money, so he went to the West Market to buy a leg of mutton.

After buying the leg of mutton, looking at the freshly skinned leg of mutton, Wang Wu could even imagine the aroma of the leg of mutton after cooking, and his mouth watered.

"Ouch."

Wang Wu was greedy, didn't pay attention when he walked, and accidentally bumped into someone, only to feel like he had hit an iron plate, and fell backwards.

"Are you alright?"

The man who knocked him down stretched out his hand.

Wang Wu looked at him, dressed in black, with a sword hanging from his waist, his facial features were middle and upper, and the most noticeable thing was the pair of eyes, which actually felt a little sharp.

Wang Wu patted the ash on his buttocks, took the other party's hand and stood up, and said, "I'm sorry, thank you......"

The man smiled slightly and said, "It's okay, be careful on the road." ”

Anyway, he didn't care how Wang Wu answered, he poured directly into the crowd, and he couldn't see it anymore.

Most of them are another ...... who runs the rivers and lakes

Wang Wu muttered two words in a low voice that no one could hear clearly, and continued to go back to the house with a leg of mutton.

As soon as I walked back to the street, I saw a few catchers guarding the door.

Wang Wu stepped forward with some confusion, but a catcher stopped him and asked, "Who are you?" ”

Wang Wu put down the leg of mutton and arched his hand and said: "If you go back to the master, the little one's name is Wang Wu, and he is the little servant of the Zhao family." ”

Little guy?

Yu Kuai exchanged glances with his colleagues, softened his tone, and said, "The master of the Zhao family has just been assassinated, you can go in and take a look." Since you are a little guy in this family, please cooperate with us to make a written statement later. ”

Wang Wu was dumbfounded, he had only been out for so long, why was this master's house gone?

It was the first time he had seen such a scene.
