562 - Twelve Corpses

"How can King Rui let this king's handle fall into other people's hands? Naturally, this king doesn't need to worry about it."

He is also a traitor, and played with King Rui again. Poor King Rui, he thinks he is smart, hehe, in the end he doesn't know who is making the wedding clothes for whom in this throne.

While the two were talking, Shen Mengxi also brought in breakfast.

Qu Tiange pulled Tang Nineteen to sit down: "Eat something, you're hungry."

"It's okay if you don't say it, but it's a little bit better if you say it."

The Wu Zang Temple grunted and protested.

After a bowl of porridge fell down, Tang Shijiu's stomach warmed up, and he was preoccupied with secret affairs. He didn't have much energy to do anything all morning.

The sun rose high, and finally someone came to communicate, saying that the secret passage has been cleared and you can go there.

Tang Nineteen suddenly became interested.

Qu Tiange expressed deep dissatisfaction: "Going to see a dead person is more energetic than facing a living person like this king."

Tang Jiuyu patted his chest earnestly: "Young man, you need to strengthen your charm."

"Why are you so excited to see the corpse?" He was always puzzled.

Tang Nineteen responded indiscriminately: "Because I am righteous."

This was an unconvincing reason, but he also chose to believe it.

He always remembered that when the twelfth brother died, everyone and everything had nothing to do with him, only she sighed and regretted, and put the child who had nothing to do with her in his heart.

Perhaps, he fell in love with her from then on.

Accompanied by Tang Nineteen's return to the Shangguan mansion, Shangguan Ling, the family member, has already returned.

He went to the south of the Yangtze River to do business, and he was already on his way back when he encountered a servant who delivered a letter from the Shangguan Mansion. Knowing that something happened at home, he hurried home without stopping.

He didn't know that there was a secret passage in the house, and the secret passage was full of corpses.

All of a sudden, the family was in chaos. Not only did the first wife and the most beloved and capable third wife have an accident, but the family was also dug out for such unlucky things. , and now it's messed up.

The secret passage was extremely deep, and a total of twelve corpses were dug out, all of which were covered with rotten bones. Ten of them seemed to be very old. From the tattered and corrupt clothes and accessories on their bodies, it can be seen that at least 30 people died. for many years.

The other two have rotted away and only skeletons and hair are left. Compared with the other ten, the clothes on their bodies are relatively new. One of them wears a dagger at his waist, his head and face are covered with a black cloth, and he is dressed in night clothes. .

And the other person, identified by the servants of the Shangguan Mansion, was wearing clothes and a belt badge, and was none other than Xu Yi, the accountant Mr. Shangguan Mansion who disappeared three years ago.

Xu Yi was missing at the time, and the house searched to no avail. Later, several huge amount of IOUs were found under the pillow in Xu Yi's room. Everyone thought that Xu Yi left the capital to avoid debts, and the matter was left alone.

No one expected that Xu Yi strayed into the secret passage, and finally died in the sword needle, with a sword stuck in one of his ribs.

Among these dead people, he also died at the front. He followed Mr. Fu into the secret passage once, and the spot where each corpse was found has been outlined with white lime on the ground.

Except for Xu Yi who died tragically in the first organ, the rest of them broke into the back, and the place where the last body was found was in front of an empty secret room.

Going forward, there is a thick wall, and there is nothing left.

The miasma in the tunnel was thick, and Tang Nineteen walked around clutching a handkerchief soaked in anti-miasma potion, a little panicked.

But after all, it was the person who had been tempered in the "advanced" mortuary of the Criminal Division, and she recovered soon after she came out.

On the other hand, Shangguan Ling, who went in together, turned pale when he vomited out, and he seemed to be in a bad mood.
