The punishment of the female imperial court

Chapter 11 Suspicion of Murder Sign (Revised Edition)

Yu Anning eats soft but not hard, seeing Yu Qiansi's gentle words of persuasion, her eyebrows and eyes are full of delicate beauty.He made up his mind, after the matter was over, he must find out the person who had the notoriety of "Jade Rakshasa" and give him a good beating, so that he could think of a nice new name that fits Yuqiansi's beauty.

What's more, let everyone know Yu Qiansi's beauty.

If I can make friends with her, then Ruanxiang will be by my side, and I will definitely be envious of those gangsters who have a heart but no guts.

Suifeng obeyed his orders and sent Yu Anning to Yuqiansi's temporary residence in the Criminal Division.

Seeing the peace around, Yuqiansi took a long breath, sat down at the table, looked at the newly engraved stack of bamboo plaques, took out a few bundles of silk threads, and sorted out the murder signatures one by one.

In October last year, Wunian Temple, one of the three famous temples in the south of the Yangtze River, held a grand ceremony.After the Dharma Assembly, the deceased holding the lottery made by the new system of the Dharma Assembly appeared one after another in the Jingsi Hall of the temple.

None of the deceased were connected, but after investigation by the government, it was found that all the deceased had a past, and the order of death was based on the Five Precepts of Buddhism. It was urgent to wait until last month, including Qingwu who died unexpectedly before the ceremony, and eight people had died.

The dead all died in a miserable state. Those who committed theft were cut off with their hands, and those who committed false speech were pulled out of their tongues. They corresponded one by one to the punishments in Avii Hell painted on the wall in the Jingsi Hall, and they were all the same.

The strange thing is that there is no window in the Jingsi Hall of Wunian Temple, and only one key is kept by monk Saosa. Before the incident, monk Saosa meditated with other monks all night.After the incident, the monk lived day and night under the supervision of monks from other temples, and it was absolutely impossible for him to act alone.These dead people seem to appear in the temple out of thin air, which is generally reverie.

Because the new lottery made by the Fahui is black, which means unlucky, so this case is also known as the case of murderous lottery.

Yuqiansi strung together the bamboo plaques engraved with the abbot of Wunian Temple, Qingwu, the first deceased, and Qingyuan, the murderer, together with white silk threads.

Qingwu, who died unexpectedly, was the teaching monk of Wunian Temple before his death. He was young and promising, and he was in charge of rewarding and punishing the merits and demerits of all the monks in the temple.

The place where the body was found was the Siguo Hall of Wunian Temple.

It is said that this Buddhist hall was originally a Ksitigarbha Hall where pilgrims pledged donations. The Buddhist altar has been repaired in the center of the room, and many clay statues of Rakshatians have been moved in and piled up randomly on both sides of the main hall.But for some reason, the pilgrims withdrew their donations, and the hall was vacant.

Therefore, Qing Wu, who was in charge of the precepts in the temple, used this place as a Siguo hall to punish monks who made mistakes.

And he himself is good at calligraphy and painting, and he painted hell tortures on the walls on both sides, coupled with the high Buddhist altar and strange Rakshasa statues on both sides, the punished monks were too scared to sleep at night.

I don't know who started it, the monks who were punished here began to write scriptures on the wall, one after another, originally for the purpose of eliminating evil and fear, but it also made this small hall even more mysterious and treacherous.

Before the Dafa meeting, Qingwu fell and fell to his death with the painting on the beam, and soon after, rumors spread everywhere.

They all said: Qingwu committed killing after becoming a monk.After death, he cannot be reborn, so his soul can only wander in the Wunian Temple, and occasionally enters his dreams, frequently preaching to the monks who have made mistakes.

The rumors started out of nowhere, and became more and more intense after the Dafa Conference.Immediately afterwards, the body of the first deceased was thrown in the Jingsi Hall. Since then, the murder case has been rumored to be the work of Qing Wu's resentful soul.

Then, according to the Five Precepts of Buddhism, the murderer counted Qing Wu as No. people.

Dasheng respects Buddha, and the soldiers are full of murderous spirit. Wunian Temple is a famous mountain and ancient temple admired by everyone. It is absolutely impossible to send people to garrison it.So monks from other monasteries were sent to keep an eye on the only young monk with the key.

But the bodies were found one after another.

After being killed elsewhere, they were dragged into the Hall of Thoughts, where they cut off the corresponding parts according to the Five Precepts of Buddhism, and then threw black around them to make a lottery.

Although Yuqiansi has just arrived, this secret room is indeed impeccable.The only young novice who had the key was surrounded by monks from the outer courtyard at night, and the next day he opened the door to sweep and found the body behind the Buddhist altar.

She never believed in ghosts and gods. Since the room was fine, the problem must be with the person.

After she carefully observed the situation in the temple and examined the corpses, she noticed some broken mud clods scattered among the stacked Rakshatian statues, and occasionally mud clods were found in the hair of the dead.

At this point, she already knew the murderer's modus operandi.

The murderer hid himself and the deceased in the mud shell in advance, and began to arrange the scene after the little novice locked the door at night.When the mud shell of a Tibetan is closed, it becomes a Rakshasa statue, which is not much different from other Rakshasa statues piled in the corner.When everything is arranged, just wait for someone to open the door and clean it in the morning.

There is a high platform in the middle of this room, and there are clay sculptures on both sides. It is easiest to hide people when the sky is about to shine.After the body was found and there was a commotion, he pretended to be attracted by the sound and appeared at the door.

So, next, you just need to find the perpetrator who meets the conditions.

Therefore, she gathered the monks who appeared at the scene of the crime every time following the little monk, and asked them one by one for their alibi.Naturally, he discovered Qing Yuan who made mistakes one after another in those few days, was punished by the host for copying scriptures every night, and had an impeccable alibi.

But the so-called scriptures copied by hand in the presiding room every night, at first glance, there is no problem.

The handwriting matches the records Qing Yuan wrote in the temple in the past, and the ink is new and old, just like the copying in those few days, it seems to be impeccable.

It's a pity that she still noticed something was wrong.This gesture is frustrating, which is obviously a trace of pillow bowl calligraphy, but observing Qing Yuan's right hand and wrist, there are no brush cocoons and ink marks that should be there.Even on all his monk robes, there is no ink stain.This is by no means a person who has used the pillow-wrist method to write for many years.Guan Qingyuan's brush cocoon is more like a person who is used to hanging wrist calligraphy.On the contrary, it was Qing Yuan's alibi provider—Chief Lian Ran—that was consistent with the transcribed scriptures.

But the youngest abbot of Wunian Temple, the famous monk, knew why he would lie for a young monk?The error in this handwriting is consistent with other places in the temple. Could it be that Qing Yuan was Qing Yuan's ghostwriter from the beginning?Perhaps because he was worried that his handwriting would be noticed by others, Lian Ran also replaced all the places where Qing Yuan needed to write?

At this point, she withdrew Qing Yuan on the grounds of "lecturing the scriptures".But that night, another case happened.

The host understood that it was the ninth deceased.

Qing Ming, the youngest presiding master of Wunian Temple in the past, died of the crime of "speech".The method of death was the same as before, but he had his tongue pulled out while he was still alive, and died in the Siguo Hall with a murder lot beside him.

The truth about knowing clearly also comes just in time.

It turned out that this eminent monk who attained enlightenment at a young age made such achievements in Buddhism at a young age because he falsely claimed that he had been taught by Master Jikong's precepts and deeds.

In this way, Qing Yuan, who seemed to be suspected by her, really had an alibi.

But she could tell at a glance that it was suicide.

The case is very simple, but the matter has come to this point, and the strong anxiety and concern in her heart make it impossible for her to ignore the incredible contradiction of the matter itself.

She was very puzzled, but she knew that since the very beginning, she asked Qing Yuan to write for her, and portrayed herself as an eminent monk who achieved success and fame.But why did he not hesitate to ruin his own reputation at this moment and take his own life in such a painful way?Is it just to forge the scene of signing the case for the murder, in an attempt to make Qing Wu's ghost kill someone and help Qing Yuan get rid of the crime?
What's more, he is still a monk. If he really believes in it, why would he commit the great crime of suicide and go to hell instead?But if you don't believe in the life before and after death, and commit suicide without fear, why escape into Buddhism?
More importantly, he deliberately left a letter before his death, pointing out that the past with Master Jikong was all false.He also specifically mentioned that Qing Yuan had also been taught by Master Ji Kong, so he had a lot of favor with him, and hoped that he would let Qing Yuan go.

Recalling this, Yu Qiansi groaned silently, gently moving the universe in Yuli, sorting out his thoughts.

Knowing this move, is there no silver here or a divorce?Is it just to make him doubt Master Jikong?
After entering Beijing, Qing Yuan ended his own life in a ceremonial and equally cruel way, which constituted the last link of the murder signing case-"killing life", what exactly did he intend to do?

I have never been good at guessing people's hearts.Therefore, the selection of the sufferer in the Yuli Pavilion was handed over to Master Jikong.

She naturally believed in Master Jikong.

But people's words are scary, and now the dilemma is over.

No matter whether he explained everything to Master Jikong or not, if the content of the clear posthumous note is spread, it will cause a lot of unnecessary trouble anyway.Today she was also worried about this point, so she wanted to ask the young master what to do.But still did not expect that Qing Yuan committed suicide at this moment.It exacerbated the crisis.

Turning his gaze to the bamboo plaques of the Marquis of Guang'an on the other side, Yuqian flipped to the back of the bamboo plaques, picked up a pen to write and draw, and wrote the details and clues about each person on the back of the name, listening to Yuli Qiankun. With a lingling sound, he suddenly made up his mind.

If you want Boyi to speak up, the matter of the Marquis of Guang'an is the key.

After Suifeng came back, he saw that Yuqiansi had finished writing two letters and handed them to Suifeng: "These two official documents about the Marquis of Guang'an are in duplicate. One will be sent to the palace tomorrow morning, and the other will be delivered to the palace. To Dali Temple."

Sui Feng took the letter, a little puzzled: "Are you really planning to intervene in this matter?"

The Marquis of Guang'an is not easy to get along with, not to mention that the old lady is also a dignitary with a high status.Anyone who looks at it knows the affairs of the Hou Mansion, and the water is very deep.

What's more, the person is already dead, except for a savage little girl, everyone keeps silent, so why bother?
Yu Qiansi felt a little soft-hearted when she thought of the innocent face full of tears just now.

"Eat the emperor's salary, loyal to the emperor's business"

Thinking of Xiao Zhang's panic, she mused, "Besides, strange things happen frequently in the Marquis of Guang'an. Maybe there is something suspicious about the old lady's death. If you can do your part to let the truth be revealed to the public, it would be a good thing." Bar."

Sui Feng understood this truth, but Sui Feng looked at the other petition in his hand, "Then why do you want to copy a copy to Dali Temple?"

"Looking at the appearance of the princess, I will not give up easily. If I inform them in advance, it will also reflect our open-mindedness and justice. What's more, I just took over the Dali Temple Prison today. If I skip them and take it directly The case will surely lead to more enmity."

Yu Qian spoke righteously, as if she had thought it through.

Suifeng has one head and two big heads.I don't know if she meant what she said, or if she meant it with sarcasm.Mr. Si Yin is as intelligent as he is intelligent, why is he always unreliable than himself every time he encounters such a thing, it really is really worrying.

As she said, today not only was the Dali Temple jailed, but the Dali Temple Shaoqing was also mercilessly locked up.Now that this petition is handed over, any normal person would think it was provocation rather than peace, right?It's no wonder that Si Qing was so angry.

But when he opened his mouth, he felt that it would be useless to talk too much.Let Yaoguang deal with it.

Yu Qiansi didn't know about Suifeng's slander.She stared at the blank space of the book case, and finally made up her mind to write the case statement of the murder case.

She has always been blessed with few relatives, only a few or two friends.In this life, there are not many people I can protect.Master Jikong, please don't get involved because of yourself.

Master Jikong once wondered that he behaved like a precarious beggar.

Others must think that this is not a good word, but she thinks it is very appropriate.

Wasn't entering the Judiciary just to hold power tightly in his own hands, protect relatives and friends, and seek the truth?
She is not a saint, nor is she an impartial and unparalleled figure in the scriptures.Ordinary people have seven emotions and six desires.Now that she has solved the case and caught the murderer, that is enough.

The long night is long, dancing and dancing like bean lights, and the woman under the lights is lonely and independent.
