Chapter 696

Xue Ying's family was buried on a mountain twenty miles outside the city. The grave was crowded with people, besides Uncle Xue and his eldest son Xue Ran, there were also some elders from the clan.

An old man with a white beard, leading the crowd, hurriedly knelt down to salute: "Caomin brought the Xue family members to see the princess,"

The old man was quite old and trembling, Rong Jiu hurriedly helped him up, and said with a smile: "Everyone, you don't need to be polite, get up quickly."

"Thank you princess."

Rong Jiudao: "Everyone must have known what happened last night. It is said that Miss Xue was resurrected to seek revenge. Dali Temple was ordered to re-investigate the old case back then, and had to open the coffin for autopsy. Please forgive me."

Generally, after burial, the coffin is rarely opened for autopsy. The common people think that would disturb the dead and be disrespectful to the dead.

Second Uncle Xue's complexion changed, he sighed, and said: "Yingying has been obedient and filial since she was a child. I also asked her about the marriage with the Zhou family boy. She agreed, and the elder brother made an engagement with the Zhou family. We don't believe it. She Because of a marriage that was originally agreed to, the whole family will be poisoned and killed, and I don't know where she has been living all these years, is she doing well?"

When Rong Jiu heard the words, a faint sense of melancholy surged up in his heart, and he heard Xue Ran say, "I hope the princess can find out the truth, and make sister Ying innocent, so that she can return home as soon as possible, so she doesn't have to worry about being frightened and wandering."

Rong Jiu felt even more disappointed, nodded, and said, "Open the coffin."

After the Xue family paid homage to the undead, they began to dig the grave. When the coffin was about to be opened, Uncle Zhu reminded: "There is corpse gas in the coffin, please stand far away."

When everyone heard the words, they all stood far away. When the coffin lid was opened, a foul smell rushed towards their faces, making people sick, and everyone covered their mouths and noses.

When the second coffin lid was opened, the policeman let out an exclamation.

"What's wrong?" Shen Cheng strode to the coffin.

"Look, my lord, there are two corpses in this coffin."

Shen Cheng took a look inside the coffin, and there were indeed two corpses: "Choose the bones, others, continue to open the coffin."

"Yes."

Everyone was stunned when they heard the words, Second Uncle Xue said in shock: "This, how is this possible, how is this possible? I arranged the funeral by myself, and I buried the elder brother's family with my own hands. When the coffin was built, I watched with my own eyes. , There is only one corpse in each coffin, who is the extra corpse?"

A bright light flashed in front of his eyes suddenly, and Rong Jiu had a faint guess in his heart, and said, "Check the coffin, is there any trace of being pried open?"

The policeman responded quickly, and after a careful inspection, he turned around and said, "Princess, this coffin does have signs of being pried open."

Shen Cheng also thought of something, turned his head and looked at Rong Jiu.

Uncle Xue was surprised and angry: "Who pried open my sister-in-law's coffin and threw in an unknown corpse. What did he want to do?"

The bones were picked out one by one, the mountain wind howled, but there was silence on the top of the mountain, and after an unknown amount of time, the two bones had been pieced together.

Looking at the skeleton placed on the white cloth, Rong Jiu couldn't help but ask Uncle Zhu, "The extra corpse is a female corpse?"

Uncle Zhu picked up the pelvis and looked at it: "The pelvis is wide and short, with a large mouth, almost round. It is a woman's pelvis, and it is a female corpse."

Rong Jiu approached, looked at the pile of bones, and said slowly: "From the skull and teeth, when the deceased died, he was between fifteen and sixteen years old, with a length of five feet and four inches, and he had been dead for at least ten years. .”
