Chapter 541: Visiting Mrs. Hou
The news was so shocking that even if Yan Du expected it, he was still speechless for a while.
The place where the broken arm was found was in a forest deep in the Cloud Mountain, and the person who found the broken arm was a nearby villager who had gone up the mountain to hunt.
"This broken arm is buried shallowly, and it was dug out by the hunting dogs brought by the villagers." Da Hei wiped his sweat and pointed to the east again, "That is where the body of the maidservant girl of the Dingyuan Marquis Mansion was found, not far from here." The official messenger of Jingzhao Mansion said that they searched three times in the vicinity, and did not find the severed arm, and then found that section in the lotus pond of the Dingyuan Marquis Mansion, because the weather was too hot, the body of the maidservant had already been handed over to her family for burial, and there was no comparison, and the severed arm was directly handed over to the family for burial. ”
After hearing this, Yan Du looked at the rotten severed arm on the ground, and sighed, "So this severed arm belongs to the servant girl." ”
"It's been re-compared, and this is it."
Now the question arises, whose truncated arm was found in the lotus pond earlier?
"Since the officials of Jingzhao Mansion have searched around here, they have not found it, which means that this amputated arm may have been buried here later." Yan Du said.
"It should be." After Da Hei finished speaking, he looked puzzled again, "But why did the murderer do this?" It doesn't make sense! ”
"It wasn't necessarily the murderer's doing, but now this amputated arm tells us that there was actually another woman who had an accident on the night the maid was killed."
Da Hei went down and said: "The two people may die in the same way, and the murderer is also the same." ”
Yan Du sighed, "There is only one severed arm right now, and the owner of the severed arm may not be dead." ”
Da Hei nodded: "So what do we do next?" ”
"Find someone first."
"Our people searched the neighborhood again and found no clues."
Yan Du looked up the hill and muttered for a moment and said, "The scene of the corpse crushing case was in the Zhuangzi of the Dingyuan Marquis Mansion, and then the murderer transferred the body here to bury it, and was later found by the nearby villagers. ”
"Yes."
"Let's start with this Zhuangzi in the Dingyuan Marquis Mansion to see if there are any missing people on the Zhuangzi."
At dinner, Yan Dui came back from outside, and his face was extremely bad.
Liu Yunxiang asked him to eat first, and when he saw the food, he retched first, and hurriedly turned around and ran out.
"Mother, is Daddy sick?" Xingyi asked with a frown.
"Let's get a doctor for my father, and let Aunt Qu treat him." Yan'er was also worried.
Liu Yunxiang said with a smile: "Daddy is not sick, you eat first, and my mother will go to see him." ”
Liu Yunxiang asked Jinyan to look at the two children, she came out of the hall, looked around, and saw Yan Du sitting on the verandah on the west side, holding on to the railing, retching again and again.
She frowned, went back and poured another cup of tea, and brought it over.
"Take a sip of tea first."
When Yan Twilight saw the orange tea, she couldn't help but vomit again.
Seeing this, Liu Yunxiang hurriedly put the tea aside and patted him on the back, "What's wrong with you?" ”
Yan Du sat back on the verandah, slowed down for a while, and then said, "Didn't I find another broken arm in Yunxia Mountain today?" ”
"But the handmaiden?"
"Yes."
"The one that was found in the lotus pond of the Dingyuan Marquis Mansion before was someone else's."
Yan Du nodded, "We don't have a clue, so we want to check the handmaid's body again to see if we can find a clue." ”
As she spoke, Yan Dui retched again.
Liu Yunxiang's face changed, "Don't say it, I know." ”
In this summer, the corpse buried in the soil must have decomposed, and the parts were still disconnected, thinking about the scene after the coffin was opened, she was about to vomit if she didn't see it.
"Damn, this murderer is so perverted!"
"Indeed, he must have been a man of extreme darkness in his heart."
"When I catch someone, Lao Tzu will stomp on his arms and legs first!"
Liu Yunxiang smiled, "You haven't seen any big scenes in King Zhenbei, and you have been scared like this one day." ”
Yan Du leaned against the wooden pillar behind him, looked up at the bright moon in the sky, and exhaled a long breath, "Da Hei took people to the Dingyuan Marquis Mansion Zhuangzi to check again, but they were turned away, and asked them if there was anyone missing in the Zhuangzi, and they said that no one was missing." ”
Liu Yunxiang frowned, "The Criminal Department investigates the case, and they should cooperate." ”
Besides, the scene where the maid was mutilated and dismembered was in their Zhuangzi, and now another corpse has been found, and it is reasonable to go to their Zhuangzi to investigate again.
"In the end, it is where Mrs. Dingyuan Marquis lives, she won't let me investigate, and we can't break in."
Liu Yunxiang thought for a while, "In this way, tomorrow I will visit Mrs. Dingyuan Marquis, and you will go with me." ”
"The housekeeper said that their wife is sick, so even if you are the princess of Zhenbei, she may not see you."
"Let's try first."
Early the next morning, Liu Yunxiang carefully dressed up Yan Dui, looked at the people in the mirror, was absolutely beautiful, dressed up in women's clothes, beautiful and beautiful.
It's just that he has a dark face, staring at her through the mirror, looking like he might pick a child at any time.
Liu Yunxiang covered his mouth and smiled, and said, "Not for anything else, as a servant of the Criminal Department, you have to be worthy of the black gauze hat on your head." One or two lives, you have to find out and give an explanation to their families. ”
Because of these words, Yan Du let out a sigh of relief.
"I can pretend to be a little girl."
"Mrs. Dingyuan Marquis lives alone in Zhuangzi, and the little maid is afraid that she can't go into the backyard.
Yan Du snorted, "You obviously did it on purpose!" ”
Liu Yunxiang held back a smile, bent down and leaned over, and the faces of the two of them were reflected in the mirror.
"Tsk, you're more beautiful than me!"
Along the way, Yan Dusk ignored her.
Came to the Dingyuan Marquis Mansion in front of the Zhuangzi located in Yunxia Mountain, Zijin went up and knocked on the door, and a small servant came to open the door.
"Our lady is sick and doesn't see any strangers."
"You just have to report it, our princess is waiting outside."
In the end, it was the princess of Zhenbei, and the little girl didn't dare to send it away at will, so she could only run in to report it.
Liu Yunxiang saw Yan Du standing in front of the carriage and looking into the distance, she walked over and looked at him, and saw that there was a Taoist temple on another hill not far from here.
In the clouds and mist, under the cover of the jungle, you can only see the roofs of glazed tiles and the rising cigarettes.
"That's the Yunxia Mountain Taoist Temple, right?"
"Hmm."
"The Taoist temple of Hongxuan Taoist people entering the Tao."
Yan Duan turned his head to look at Liu Yunxiang, "Do you know Hongxuan Daoist?" ”
Liu Yunxiang nodded, "At least there is no one in Shengjing who doesn't know Hongxuandao people, he often goes down the mountain to Hongdao, helps the poor people, and overtakes the poor people who die of suffering." He has a very deep Taoism, and it is also rumored among the people that he has the ability to know the heavens and the earth, and he is a saint who has attained the Tao. ”
"The emperor is obsessed with Taoism, and when I entered the palace a few days ago, I met Hongxuan, and he asked me if I wanted to ask him to calculate a hexagram."
"Fortune telling?"
Yan Du squinted, "I don't believe this, so I say it's a deception." ”
"He said he had the ability to get to the sky."
"I said let me see what you are capable of first, and he said I could steal the sky above your head."
"Huh?"
Yan Du fell into confusion, "That day is also like this day, the sun is hanging high, a thousand miles at a glance, and then in an instant, it is dark in front of my eyes, and there is no light. ”
