Dali Temple has his Lord Luo

Chapter 33 The head appears
Lu Shuangxue put the ingredients in her hands into the basket and walked out of the market quickly.

Aunt Xiang, who sells eggs, saw her and hurriedly said, "Miss Lu, would you like some eggs?"

Lu Shuangxue smiled and shook her head: "I won't buy it today, thank you, Auntie."

Aunt Xiang waved her hand: "Tsk, tsk, you are so handsome. That boy from the Han family is very lucky. Look at her face, she is a prosperous girl."

Anyone would be embarrassed to say this, and Lu Shuangxue was the same. She lowered her head and said shyly: "Thank you Aunt Xiang, I will buy it next time."

Xiangshen looked at her back and couldn't help but sigh, what a good girl!
Back at the house, Lu Shuangxue took out the ingredients she bought. After a short time, four dishes and one soup were put on the table.

After a while, Han Ming walked in.

"Come back?" Lu Shuangxue was smiling.

"Well, today is so rich!" Han Ming took the handkerchief and wiped his hands, and couldn't help but praise, this is the feeling of happiness.

Lu Shuangxue pointed to the food on the table: "It's all what you like to eat."

"Shuangxue, thank you for coming back to me." Han Ming pulled Lu Shuangxue over and confessed again.

Lu Shuangxue leaned into Han Ming's arms: "You don't blame me?"

"How could I blame you?"

"I'm afraid that one day these will all be false."

"No, the past is in the past. We will never be separated again, and you should never leave me again! Okay?"

Lu Shuangxue nodded: "Han Ming, thank you!"

But not even a moment after Wen Cun, Lu Shuangxue couldn't control her coughing. In the past few days, her chest had become more and more sad. Lu Shuangxue thought: I'm afraid she doesn't have much time left.

Han Ming looked at her nervously and asked eagerly: "How are you doing? Are you okay? Have you taken all the medicine?"

Lu Shuangxue nodded and held back her cough: "Come to eat, I have nothing to do!"

The two people sat side by side, and the room was quiet.

Where is Luo Ning?What is she doing these days?
She is currently being watched by Qin Zhao, practicing riding a horse.

Qin Zhao kept his word. In order to prevent Luo Ning from getting romantically involved with other men, as soon as Zhang Qiu's case was over, Mr. Qin used all his skills to watch Luo Ning every day and teach her to ride horses.

He actually didn't know that Luo Ning would never ride a horse with a second person again, but Lord Qin was not confident.

The more contact he had with Luo Ning, the more he felt that Luo Ning was valuable. He lamented that in the past 19 years, no one had recognized Luo Ning's kindness and let her stay in the boudoir. Fortunately, he and Luo Ning met, and the two of them are becoming more and more familiar and close. !

While thinking wildly, Luo Ning grabbed his arm and was about to get on the horse. Now she can climb on the horse's back, yes, that's right, climbing, and only with Qin Zhao helping her.

Luo Ning wanted to give up several times, but Qin Zhao refused. In fact, she tried very hard, but Ma'er just didn't cooperate with her.

Luo Ning climbed on the horse's back and started yelling again. Even the horse was impatient and looked disgusted.

Helpless, Qin Zhao had no choice but to get on his horse to protect her.

It was like this every time. As long as Luo Ning climbed on the horse, Qin Zhao would be the one to compromise in the end.

On the one hand, he was worried about her, but on the other hand, he couldn't bear to see her scared. Luo Ning was on horseback, as if the sky was about to fall, and those who looked at her couldn't bear to look at her.

Learning came and went. In the past few days, Qin Zhao took Luo Ning for a few laps at the racecourse. Finally, Luo Ning complained that he was tired and stopped studying.

At this time, Mr. Qin was speechless and helpless.

Seeing that it was almost time for today, Luo Ning discussed: "Master Qin, let's stop here today!"

After saying that, he raised his little face and looked at Qin Zhao pitifully. Qin Zhao agreed in his heart, but seeing Luo Ning's appearance, he liked it very much. Suddenly he became playful and pinched the horse's belly, and the horse accelerated and rushed out.

This frightened Luo Ning. He yelled, turned around and hugged Qin Zhao, shrank into his arms, and pressed his cheek against Qin Zhao's chest. Qin Zhao felt that Luo Ning was like a cat, and his heart almost melted.

The horse sped up and ran three laps. Qin Zhao was satisfied. Luo Ning curled up in his arms and refused to move. The two of them just cuddled up to each other silently. One horse and two people became the most beautiful scenery in the racecourse.

Dali Temple has been relaxing and leisurely these past few days. Several directors gathered together and chatted while sorting out the files. Song Zhuer did the same, flipping through the files and studying previous cases with Luo Ning.

Song Zhuer noticed that Sir has become more and more beautiful recently: "Sir, is Sir Qin good to you?"

Luo Ning was startled when Song Zhuer suddenly said, "Is Qin Zhao good to her?"I am very sure of that.

Luo Ning held her chin in her hands and drew circles with her brush. Is this love?My heart is always restless, always thinking about seeing him.

When I see him, I don't want to separate. Every word he says is pleasant to the ear, and every look on his face is remembered in my heart. What about him?I like teasing her and watching her laugh.

Well, the taste of love is so sweet.

The air was filled with happiness, and Song Zhuer pursed her lips and snickered.

The quiet moment was soon broken, and the officials from the Jingzhao Mansion rushed into Dali Temple: "Is Lord Luo there? Wei Sizhi..."

Everyone was welcomed out, needless to say, there was a case.

"Something happened?" Yao Sizhi has a straightforward personality. Although he knew that he knew what he was asking, he still spoke first.

The yamen servant nodded: "There is a branch road out of the city in the south of the city. This morning, some woodcutter came back from collecting firewood and found something in the river. They went over boldly and saw that it was a package. When they opened it, they found... a human head... …”

The yamen servant was still in fear, and his voice became smaller and smaller.

"What? A head?" Meng Xiao has been working as a secretary in Dali Temple for almost 20 years, and has been exposed to all major and serious cases in Zhao State. This is the first time he encountered a head case, and he was shocked.

Song Zhuer thought to herself: Human head?That's a human head, how cruel is it?Last time Zhang Qiu’s case made everyone unable to bear to look at the corpse, what about this time?How many people can accept it?

Luo Ning rubbed his eyebrows with both hands, what happened recently?They are all serious crimes. Looking up at the blue sky, it is still cloudless. Why are there so many demons in the world?
"The head is in Jingzhao Mansion?" No matter how much he couldn't bear it, the case would have to be faced eventually. Luo Ning asked the yamen officer: "Has Dong Wuzuo seen it?"

"Master Song sent another government official to look for him, and sent me to find him!"

"Then let's go!"

Luo Ning and his party arrived at Jingzhao Mansion. Dong Wuzuo had already taken care of the heads and was talking to Mr. Song. Seeing Luo Ning coming, they both frowned at the same time.

"Master Dong, is it very difficult?" Luo Ning looked at Dong Mingfeng's expression. Under normal circumstances, he is calm and calm. It seems that this murder case also gave him a headache.

"Well, the case is a bit tricky. There are no clues. The sheet wrapped around the head is an extremely ordinary cloth that can be found everywhere." Dong Mingfeng replied.

"The head was soaked not long ago. It should be a recent murder." Song Qingsong stroked his beard: "But why didn't we receive any reports?"

"The incision on the neck was very neat, and the knife skills were surprisingly good, so there was less bleeding on the body. The murderer should be... engaged in this kind of business."

"Butcher or woodcutter?"

Dong Mingfeng shook his head cautiously: "Not only in these two aspects, as long as you are engaged in related businesses, practice will make you perfect."

"Master Dong, who is the deceased? Can you issue a notice and offer a reward?" Luo Ning asked.

"I'm discussing with Master Song. Mobilizing the people to report is still the fastest way to provide clues, so I'm going to ask the emperor for instructions, and in the future grant us the privilege of investigating cases all the year round!"

"This is a good privilege. I will report back to the emperor tomorrow and hand over this tiring benefit to Jingzhao Mansion." Qin Zhao walked in as he spoke, and the atmosphere immediately became different.

Song Qingsong laughed. Mr. Qin was protecting his shortcomings, was he afraid that Mr. Luo would be tired?

"Okay, as long as the emperor allows it, the privilege of investigating the case will be given to Jingzhao Mansion." Song Qingsong promised Qin Zhao: "I will not trouble Mr. Luo."

Qin Zhao protected himself, Luo Ning smiled, listening to Song Qingsong's teasing, everything was so beautiful.

"Why are you here?" Luo Ning was curious.

"Master Song informed the Criminal Department that there was a very serious case. I happened to have something to do in the Criminal Department. When I thought you must be here, I came over."

"Have you heard about the case?" Luo Ning wanted Qin Zhao to stay and investigate the case together.

"A little bit, please say it again."

"A human head was found in the east of the city. The identity is still unclear. The autopsy results indicate that it should be a recent murder!"

"Only the head? Where are the other parts?" Qin Zhao once again heard something unheard of.

Head?I can't help feeling sad.

Song Qingsong shook his head: "Only the head was found. I have sent the yamen servants to search in the south of the city, hoping to find other clues nearby."

"Did the reporter say anything?" Luo Ning asked Song Qingsong.

"The four of them are common people from the south of the city. They often go to the mountains to chop firewood together. This time they also found the package accidentally."

"There are only these clues. Just draw a picture and post it. I hope I can find some clues." Luo Ning said to Yao Sizhi, "Go ahead and I'll check the package list."

Among these people, Yao Sizhi was the best painter, and he was usually in charge of this aspect of affairs. The yamen servant took him to the morgue, and Luo Ning followed Dong Mingfeng to look at the wrapping slip that wrapped the head.

Qin Zhao and Song Zhuer were the followers. At this time, they followed Luo Ning one after another to the material room, where things related to the corpse were stored. Generally, when the murder case was over, the family members would take away the relevant evidence.

Luo Ning saw that the parcel sheet was gray and made of linen. It was indeed a common fabric for ordinary people at home, but it was surrounded by sewing stitches.

Luo Ning was confused: Was the killing a spur-of-the-moment move or was it premeditated?

"What did you find?"

"What's the matter, my lord?"

Seeing Song Zhuer and Qin Zhao with question marks on their faces, Luo Ning smiled and replied: "This package is just regular and [-]% new. Looking at the size and specifications, I can't figure out what to do with it?"

"You suspect it was premeditated?" Qin Zhao asked.

"That's not true, but if it was premeditated, at least the place where the body was abandoned would have been planned in advance. Then the separation of the head and the body would have another purpose!"

Qin Zhao understood that there was no need to separate the body on a temporary basis. It would be very troublesome to deal with the head and body separately. Besides, the murder process was very cruel.

"I'll take this piece of wrapping cloth and ask my second uncle, who is the imperial merchant of textiles in the Kingdom of Zhao, to see if we can start from this aspect!"
