Chapter 181

Song Shiyun frowned and thought: "Do the previous deceased have anything in common? For example, their horoscopes, or did they do something or have any enmity with anyone?"

Zhang Zhenren sighed and shook his head.

They had also investigated the doubts raised by Song Shiyun.

After all, they are members of the Tiansi Bureau, so it is impossible not to check these things.

But after searching again and again, I couldn't find anything they had in common.

Apart from the fact that they are all women and have quite noble status, there is nothing else.

The horoscopes are different, and none of them are yin, so they are not the type that will be easily targeted by ghosts.

After all, they are all female members of wealthy families, and they usually stay close to home. Naturally, they cannot have any grudges with outsiders.

Even if there is any unhappiness, it is just a matter of a dispute between the sisters at home, or some conflict with a servant.

But he wouldn't commit such a murderous act.

Naturally, they also went to the homes of the deceased to investigate, and there was nothing strange in their homes.

"Originally we thought that this evil spirit was only targeting girls who had not left the court, but now something has happened to famous prostitutes in the brothel. It seems that it is not just targeting girls who have not left the court."

After Song Shiyun heard Zhang Zhenren's words, he flipped through the information on several victims in the booklet.

indeed.

It’s the same as what Zhang Zhenren said.

Although this information is not detailed, the birth dates and identities marked are not completely consistent.

This is very difficult.

It was also the first time for Song Shiyun to see such a situation. After thinking for a moment, she asked Zhenren Zhang: "Did the famous prostitute in the brothel just die?"

Master Zhang nodded, "It only happened the night before yesterday, and it's only been a day and a half."

Song Shiyun closed the book with a snap, stood up and said, "Can you take me over to see the scene?"

Zhang Zhenren hesitated and said: "Of course I want it, but that place is a brothel. I wonder if the second lady would mind?"

Song Shiyun raised his eyebrows, "If I cared, would I still bring up this kind of thing?"

"That's what Second Miss said." Master Zhang smiled, immediately stood up, and made a gesture of invitation, "Second Miss, please come here, I will take you there myself."

Song Shiyun nodded slightly, followed Zhenren Zhang, and walked out together.

Walking to the door of the main hall, Song Shiyun said to Qiu Bai and Chun Xiao who were next to him, "I have something to go out with Master Zhang. Chun Xiao will come with me. Qiu Bai, you stay at home and tell my father and mother for me. "

After finishing speaking, before Qiu Bai could speak, Song Shiyun glanced at Zhenren Zhang and walked forward.

Seeing this, Chunxiao bowed to Qiu Baifu and followed Song Shiyun and Zhang Zhenren step by step.

Qiu Bai sighed helplessly and could only accept his fate to stay and go to the main courtyard to say something to Yang Shiyun for Song Shiyun.

Song Shiyun and Zhang Zhenren came out of Pingninghou Mansion and went straight to the brothel.

In the Daqing Dynasty, there were official prostitutes and private prostitutes.

Private prostitutes are not allowed by the government. Once an official is found to be looking for a private prostitute, he will be punished.

As for the official prostitutes, on the surface, they only perform some singing and dancing performances to cheer up various banquets.

Once an official has an affair with an official prostitute, he will also be punished, but the severity will be much smaller.

Today's official prostitutes are basically young literary talents.

Of course, these are all obvious.

A place like a brothel is a place of scandal at any time, and there are naturally countless scandals in it.

Most women would not go to that kind of place.

Master Zhang looked at Song Shiyun. She was sitting in the carriage, but she didn't mind at all.

In this regard, she is not like an ordinary woman.

Zhang Zhenren paused but didn't say anything.

The carriage swayed and soon arrived at the gate of the brothel.

This brothel is the most famous brothel in the capital, called Meng Hongxiu.

After getting off the carriage, Chunxiao was a little confused when she looked at the huge Hongxiu Tower in front of her, hung with various colorful silks.

She couldn't help but tug on Song Shiyun's sleeve, and asked in a low voice with a blushing face: "Miss, what are we doing here?"

Song Shiyun heard this and joked: "Don't worry, I didn't want to sell you here."

Chunxiao was stunned, and her face turned even redder, "Miss..."

Song Shiyun smiled faintly and said seriously: "We really have something to do. Haven't you noticed that there is no one around here?" Chun Xiao heard this and noticed that there was really no one around here.

At this point, it was already afternoon.

Although it is still daytime, under normal circumstances, the number of customers in a brothel has begun to increase at this point.

But there was no one around the Hongxiu Building in front of me, and not even the doors or windows were open.

Chunxiao used to go out with the young men in the house, and also passed by the brothel, and saw various girls standing at the door, wearing very cool clothes.

Today, they are all gone.

It seems that this huge Hongxiu Building is quite deserted.

Seeing this scene, Chunxiao realized that there seemed to be something wrong with this Hongxiu Tower.

"Let's go in, Miss Second." At this moment, Master Zhang had already greeted the person guarding Meng Hongxiu's gate.

Song Shiyun responded and walked over.

Zhenren Zhang opened the door.

Chunxiao followed Song Shiyun, and when he entered, he found that there were many government officials standing in the lobby, as if they were guarding and checking.

When Chunxiao saw the government officials, she immediately became nervous. She pressed tightly against Song Shiyun's arm and said anxiously: "Miss, did something happen here?"

"Yeah." Song Shiyun said calmly, "He's dead."

Chunxiao's eyes widened suddenly, "Someone is dead?!"

Her jaw almost dropped.

Song Shiyun lifted her chin up and said, "Don't worry, no more people will die now."

Chunxiao swallowed.

Although she almost killed someone before, she was not vicious in nature.

Never saw a murder scene.

She was a little scared when she thought of that bloody scene.

But thinking that Song Shiyun was here, Chunxiao felt relieved, but she didn't dare to leave Song Shiyun for even half a step, so she could only follow Song Shiyun.

The Hongxiu Tower in Meng Hongxiu has three floors in total.

The lobby on the first floor and the second floor are divided into private rooms.

Master Zhang led them up to the second floor, and someone came over.

Song Shiyun took a look and saw that he was an acquaintance again.

This person is Jingzhao Prefecture Yin.

"Zhenren Zhang..." Jingzhao Prefecture Yin heard that Zhenren Zhang was coming, so he came out to greet him. He was about to bow his hands and salute, but he caught a glimpse of the person next to him. He couldn't help being surprised, "Isn't this... the second young lady of Pingninghou Mansion? ?”

He looked at Master Zhang questioningly, obviously asking, why did Master Zhang bring the woman here?
Master Zhang smiled, still looking like an old god, "Second Miss is not an ordinary person. She came here to help us."

The governor of Jingzhao had met Song Shiyun, and he seemed to be quite capable.

only……

The governor of Jingzhao quietly pulled Zhang Zhenren's sleeve and took him two steps to the side, "But this place is not a place where women should come. Why did Zhang Zhenren bring such noble family members? What if he was allowed to do so? Marquis Pingning knows this and is afraid he will be angry."

Zhang Zhenren patted the Jingzhao Prefecture Yin's shoulder comfortingly, "Don't worry, Mr. Sui, I personally brought the second young lady out from Pingninghou's Mansion, and I have already greeted Pingninghou, so don't worry. Second Young Lady If you are capable and you are a woman, you may notice some details that we have not noticed.”

Governor of Jingzhao: "..."

It seems so.

The governor of Jingzhao breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Since I have already greeted Marquis Ping Ning, I won't say anything else."

Master Zhang smiled at him, walked over with him, and said hello to Song Shiyun.

"It's a great honor for us that the second lady is willing to help us." Jingzhao Fu Yin smiled politely and held his hand to Song Shiyun.

Song Shiyun smiled lightly and said, "Your Excellency, it's fine if you don't dislike us for causing trouble."

Jingzhao Prefecture Yin knew that she was referring to the incident where he took away Zhenren Zhang just now. He smiled awkwardly: "How could it be possible? Second Miss, please come here and I will show you the scene."

In the Song Dynasty, Yun Fu gave a gift, "Thank you for your hard work."

The governor of Jingzhao quickly took Zhang Zhenren and Song Shiyun to the crime scene.

The so-called crime scene was the house where the famous prostitute lived.

The person who died was Meng Hongxiu’s most popular courtesan, whose nickname was Haitang.
