Chapter 007: Hot Potato

"Mu Shaoqing, Lord Fuzun, what do you mean by this? What the hell is going on? Shen Lingxi asked in a panic.

Governor Zhao saluted Mu Huai'an, snorted coldly at Shen Lingxi with a dark face, and went to the main hall with his sleeves.

Mu Huai'an walked up to her and lowered her voice: "Little girl, the official still underestimated you before. is not very old, but there are a lot of means, this time the play is quite big, the holy family is long, and you have ruined your official career overnight, you are very capable. ”

"What Mu Shaoqing said, why can't I understand it?"

He was the only one there, and Shen Lingxi didn't continue to pretend to be ignorant, "Li Tanhua can have today, isn't it all his own doing?" What does it have to do with me? Mu Shaoqing has always been jealous and hateful, is it possible that he still wants to overturn the case for Li Tanhua? ”

"Whether it has anything to do or not, you will know right away." Mu Huai'an sneered, intent on scaring her, "This official consulted the classics, there is a secret technique in Yunjiang called the Silk Puppet Technique, if it is found out, you have done something on the corpse, you and none of your three comrades want to escape." ”

He mentioned the "three" comrades, and he must have had insight into their movements last night.

Shen Lingxi lowered his eyes, and his pink lips turned white.

The white beaded flower on his head trembled slightly, and his shoulders looked fragile and helpless.

She pleaded in a low voice: "Please also ask Mu Shaoqing's subordinates to be merciful." ”

"Don't pretend." Mu Huai'an stood up straight, his eyes full of ruthlessness, "If you are willing to promise to do things for me in the future and be on call, I will still consider saving you this time." Otherwise, just wait for your newly recognized father to go to the prison of Dali Temple to catch you. You just beat the servant and maid he sent, and stabbed him out of such a big basket, and with his temper, I don't know if you will be left to fend for yourself in prison. ”

Shen Lingxi sighed slightly in his heart, he still heard it in the end.

"As soon as Lingxi returns to the Hou Mansion, she is a deep boudoir woman who can't get out, how can she do things for Shaoqing again...... It's not that Lingxi doesn't want to agree, but he can't help himself. ”

She presented the booklet in her hand to Mu Huai'an, and said earnestly: "This is the list of corpses stored in Fu'an Hall by Dali Temple before, please accept it from Mu Shaoqing." When I return to the Hou Mansion, there will be someone in the Xuanping Hou Mansion who will not tolerate the Fu'an Hall, no matter whether I can survive this catastrophe today, I will ask Mu Shaoqing to take care of the Fu'an Hall in the name of Dali Temple, so that this place will not be poisoned by the Hou Mansion. ”

The dignified Hou Mansion is really a daughter, and a righteous village has been opened, if it is spread out, where will the face of the Xuanping Hou Mansion go.

Razing it to the ground was nothing more than a word from her halfway father.

Only by being sheltered by Dali Temple can we survive the disaster.

As long as Fu'an Hall can be saved, Shen's coffin shop will be safe and sound.

Mu Huai'an frowned, naturally understanding what she meant.

This Fu'an Hall was of some use to him, but he didn't take Qiao anymore and reached out to take the roster.

However, he is not a person who can be prevaricated in just a few words, and his tone is a little impatient, "Shen Lingxi, you and I have dealt with each other so much, with your ability, if you are willing, you will live in the deep palace, and you will have a way to do things for me." Don't try to fool me, I'll put my words here today, if you don't agree to me, just wait and suffer. ”

With these words aside, he walked towards the main hall.

Shen Lingxi looked at his back, his eyes flashed slightly, and the corners of his lips were slightly hooked.

In the main hall of Fu'an Hall, because Dali Temple has not yet taken over the case, Zhao Zhifu sat on the head, and Mu Huaian sat on the bottom to listen.

The yacha carried Yao Niang's body out of the ice cellar and placed it on the desk in the middle of the desk, where the autopsy was conducted.

At this time, Yao Niang was wearing plain clothes, except for the makeup on her face, which was still delicate and lifelike, and she couldn't see the slightest hint of Li Anlin's wedding on her body.

The three of them examined the limbs and joints of Yao Niang's body, and after the examination, they looked at each other, and their eyes were full of doubts.

"How?" Governor Zhao made a straight face and asked directly: "Can someone place a mechanism in the joints of the corpse?" ”

Among the three, the eldest man stepped forward to report: "Back to Fuzun, the skin and joints of the corpse are intact, only embalming has been done, and there is nothing else unusual." ”

Governor Zhao frowned.

Could it be that on the Li family's wedding banquet, it is really a ghost?

Today's saints hate "witchcraft" and "ghosts and gods" the most.

This case is now in an uproar in the capital, even if it is really a ghost, it cannot be closed with this, otherwise, the black veil on his head will not be guaranteed.

Governor Zhao asked in embarrassment: "Mu Shaoqing thinks, how should this case be handled?" ”

Mu Huai'an stood up, walked to the corpse, took a clean long needle from the wooden box he had made, and personally examined the knee joint of Yao Niang's corpse.

confirmed that what he said was the truth, and it was hard to hide his surprise in his eyes.

Yunjiang's wire puppet technique is to transform the joints of the human body into a bracket, and then use tough filaments to manipulate the corpse to make the corpse walk like a living person.

But the joints of this corpse are intact, and there are no signs of incision of the skin.

It means that at last night's wedding banquet, the corpse that walked freely was not controlled by the wire puppet technique.

Mu Huai'an, as the Shaoqing of Dali Temple, has handled countless cases, so he naturally does not believe that there are really powerful ghosts in this world.

This Shen Ling must have a way that he doesn't know, to control the corpse.

Thinking like this, Mu Huaian was even more determined to take Shen Lingxi for his own use.

He casually threw the long needle back into the wooden box, walked up to Shen Lingxi, and said two words in a voice that only the two of them could hear, "Please." ”

Shen Lingxi lowered his head and silently took half a step back.

The meaning of rejection is clear.

She wished that the dog officer would arrest her in prison, how could she beg someone for this matter.

Seeing that she was unwilling to bow her head, Mu Huai'an's eyes were slightly cold, he turned around and walked back, and said officially: "Although this corpse has not been tampered with, it is not excluded that some people pretend to be ghosts and bewitch the public in the name of the corpse." Dali Temple only took over the case of Li Tanhua's murder of his wife, and the matter of Yao Niang's corpse fraud was handled separately, and the government was responsible for it. ”

Governor Zhao secretly scolded in his heart for being a "treacherous fox cub", daring to take away the case that was easy to try, leaving a hot potato, and let the government carry the pot.

Since he can't really use "ghosts" to close the case, what can he do?

For the sake of the official reputation and the black yarn on his head, he can only find a living person to bear the blame.

The orphan girl in front of her, who has neither identity background nor relatives in the world, is the most suitable.

He thought that this little girl had some friendship with this fox cub, so he came to take this trip in person.

Now, it seems that it is possible to act freely.

"What Mu Shaoqing said is extremely true." Governor Zhao turned his head to the yacha and ordered: "Arrest this demon girl who dares to pretend to be a ghost in front of the public, and bring it back to the government for careful trial!" ”
