The little girl from Dali Temple got promoted and made a fortune by solving crimes

Chapter 2 Meeting an old friend in the Pavilion in the Heart of the Lake
Sun Ming!

Jiang Sushang had heard a little about this man. He never failed to attend the poetry and literary gatherings held by Juxian Pavilion, but there was no other name on the list of literary friends.Jiang Sushang also participated in a poetry and essay meeting in Juxian Pavilion and saw Sun Ming's articles. His literary talent was mediocre and unremarkable.

He became the first in the examination, which surprised countless people. They all praised him for restraining his sharp edge and becoming a blockbuster.

He actually died?
And he died in the Ouchi Palace!

There are patrolling guards in Changle Palace, and there are imperial guards patrolling the palace roads at night. If the murderer committed a murder, he would definitely not be able to escape the eyes of the patrolling guards. Should the murderer be another Jinshi in Changle Palace?

The female messenger beside the empress came to Changle Palace with the emperor's instructions. Jiang Sushang watched from a distance. The empress ordered Jiang Wenkang, the minister of Dali Temple, to find out the truth within one day.Tomorrow's palace examination will be postponed to the day after tomorrow.

Everyone has to be investigated. Since there are three people in a room and most of them have witnesses, it is very convenient for investigation.

The people at Dali Temple did not ask, but Jiang Sushang took the lead in telling the situation at that time. The yamen officials knew that Jiang Sushang was Jiang Wenkang's niece and had participated in the Dali Temple case. He was very familiar with the inquiry process of Dali Temple. Unexpectedly, As a result, Jiang Sushang was allowed to leave.

The side hall of Changle Palace was brightly lit, and Jiang Sushang walked straight into it.

Uncle Qian raised his head and asked, "Did the Lord ask you to come?"

Jiang Sushang agreed casually: "Yes! Her Majesty the Empress only gave him one day. I saw him from a distance, his brows furrowed. He must be extremely worried."

Jiang Wenkang, the minister of Dali Temple, is Jiang Sushang's biological uncle. She has lived in her uncle's house since she was a child. Her aunt cooked and asked her to deliver food to her uncle. By chance, she helped Dali Temple several times.In the bloody corpse case three years ago, she even used her body as bait to solve a major case.

"Are you sure you want to see it?"

"nature."

Jiang Sushang has seen people who were poisoned, hacked to death, and thrown to death. She was never afraid of corpses.I still remember that when she was ten years old, she was waiting for her uncle to come home for dinner at Dali Temple. She was bored and played hide-and-seek with the little wolf.

Being competitive, she hid in the morgue. In order to prevent the little wolf from finding her, she opened a shelf without a morgue and lay down on it.

There was actually a corpse there, just a head.

Jiang Sushang lay on it and fell asleep, sleeping with a head for a long time. She slept on one end and the head lay on the other end.

Being a dreamer, she reflexively kicked her head off to the ground.

Only then did the little wolf discover Jiang Sushang. Jiang Sushang was worried that her uncle would blame her, so she pulled the little wolf and the two of them searched everywhere for physical evidence that she had kicked her down.

Uncle Jiang Wenkang heard a movement in the morgue and knew it was his naughty niece. When he opened the door, he saw a bloody human head at his feet. He was so frightened that he fainted on the spot.

The ginger merchant took his time and put the blood-covered and distorted head back to its original place.

Since then, everyone knows that Jiang Wenkang's niece Jiang Sushang is a weirdo who is not afraid of corpses.It was also because of this that after she was born, no matchmaker dared to come to her house to propose marriage. Apart from Lan Shi and Xiao Lang, she had no other friends.

As soon as the daughters of other high-ranking families heard that her hands had touched the corpse, they all avoided her.Even when she was in Chinese studies class, no one sat next to her, probably because those people thought she was unlucky!

Uncle Qian lifted up the white cloth, and Sun Ming's body appeared in front of Jiang Sushang.

There was a writing brush inserted into the eye of the corpse. Only the tip of the brush remained outside. The blood had dried and turned black. Most of the pen barrel was inserted into the eye and penetrated deep into the skull.

"Sun Ming died after being inserted with a writing brush while he was awake. The body was found in the Huxin Pavilion, which is rarely visited by people. That was the location of the first crime. I checked the scene. Except for traces of Sun Ming's actions, there were no traces. The second person seems to be... a water ghost in the lake who kills people."

"Who discovered the body?" Since few people go to Huxin Pavilion, how was the body discovered?
"Fang Changliu discovered it. According to him, today is Zhou Qiyan's Qiqi Day, and he wanted to pay homage to Zhou Qiyan. This is the inner garden of the deep palace. He was probably worried about being discovered, so he went to the Huxin Pavilion. I happened to see the body.”

"Since it was discovered by Fang Changliu, there should be traces of him on it."

"Fang Changliu didn't go to the pavilion in the middle of the lake. When he approached with a awning boat, he saw blood flowing all over the ground. He didn't go ashore, so he turned back and called for help."

"I'll go to Huxin Pavilion to have a look."

There was a awning boat floating on the shore of the lake. Jiang Sushang carried a lantern and got on the awning boat. She hung the lantern on the bow of the boat. She struggled to hold the boat, and crystal sweat dripped down her forehead. She said briefly He paused, wiped the sweat from his forehead, and continued to hold the boat.

Under the moonlight, the lake surface was sparkling, and the fragrance of lotus leaves was carried by the wind into Jiang Sushang's nose. He felt relaxed and happy, relieved from fatigue.Why is Sun Ming going to Huxin Pavilion in a boat alone?
After a while, Jiang Sushang carried a lantern and climbed onto the Huxin Pavilion. The traces on the ground had been destroyed. There were only the footprints of the government servant and the footprints of the deceased Sun Ming. Indeed, as Uncle Qian said, there were no other people's footprints. Mark of.

There is still a lot of blood on the ground in the pavilion, which shows that this is where the crime occurred.

Jiang Sushang squatted down and touched the blood spattered on the ground with his fingers. The blood had not completely dried up and he died less than half a day ago.

There was no problem at the scene. Jiang Sushang thought about it and asked Fang Changliu about the situation. After all, he was the first to see the body.

She stood up, and a tall figure suddenly appeared behind her. The man was motionless, scaring her so much that she quickly backed away.

The figure stretched out his hand to grab her, and Jiang Sushang fell into the visitor's arms like an inertia. Her nose hit the visitor's chest, causing her to burst into tears and the lantern in her hand fell to the ground.

The visitor let go of his hand, and Jiang Sushang hurriedly picked up the lantern again. She shone it at the motionless visitor. Upon closer inspection, she saw that he looked a little familiar, but he was someone she had never seen before.

He was dressed in black and tall, and he looked like a member of the Lian family.The orange candlelight shone on his face, and Jiang Suchhang was stunned for a moment.

He has fair skin, a pair of dazzling black eyes, and an expression as cold as a star.The straight bridge of his nose was as silent and cold as ice.His lips trembled, as if he had something to say.

This man is so good-looking!A bit like Mr. Guannan in her dream...

Thinking of her dream about Mr. Guannan, Jiang Sushang stared at the person in front of her with a smile on her face, forgetting that she was still at the scene of the crime.

"Shang Shang." The visitor called.

With a "click" sound, Jiang Sushang threw away the lantern, rushed into the arms of the visitor, jumped up and jumped on him. She grabbed his waist with her legs and shouted excitedly: "Little wolf, little wolf" Wolf, you are back."

Why did she just say that he gave her a familiar feeling? Isn't he just the little wolf?
Beilu quickly held Jiang Sushang's waist to prevent him from falling to the ground. He returned home impatiently. Hearing that he would only see Jiang Sushang tomorrow, he came in anxiously.

Jiang Sushang was as clingy as ever, acting coquettishly as he did when he was a child, but this gesture made his ears turn red. Fortunately, it was at night, so Jiang Sushang couldn't see anything unusual about him.

In his excitement, Jiang Sushang realized something was wrong. This was inside the palace. How did he get in from Beilu?
"How did you get in?"

"Easy work."

The imperial city is patrolled in an orderly manner, like the stars in summer, airtight. The imperial city is several feet high. No one can fly past it except birds!

But Hokuriku, he wouldn't lie.

Jiang Sushang believed him. After not seeing each other for three years, entering the palace in Beilu felt like entering a deserted land. This was...

"I'll go out after I pass the palace examination. Why do you have to come in all the time?" If you are discovered, you won't be able to eat and walk around.

"Worry."

Jiang Sushang was speechless for a moment. Three years ago, she was kidnapped by the real murderer in order to lure him out of the bloody corpse case.Hokuriku followed the traces left by Jiang Suchhang and found the real murderer's lair. In order to protect Jiang Sushi, Hokuriku was beaten by the real murderer until he vomited blood and was seriously injured.

It happened that Taoist Tianji accepted Beilu as his disciple, and Beilu said that he would come back in three years.

Hokuriku didn't break his promise, he came back.

With Beilu here, Jiang Sushang didn't need to work hard to rock the boat.

Beilu hugged Jiang Sushang's waist, used Qinggong, stepped on the lotus leaves lightly, and reached the shore in a few steps.

It took her a long time to reach the lake pavilion, but Beilu brought her back to the shore in just a few breaths.

Jiang Sushang looked at Hokuriku's profile and wondered if there could be someone like Hokuriku who was highly skilled in martial arts and could kill people without leaving any traces?

But what does the brush mean?
