Wangfu little dumb wife

Chapter 875 Ending (1) Heart Dissection Case
The word "passed away" left Wen Wan's mind blank for a moment, she just wanted to ask about changing her life when the master was gone.

"Is it because the heavenly secret was leaked?" Wen Wan looked at Zhao Xunyin, her voice trembling with fear of the unknown.

Zhao Xunyin held her hand and comforted her softly, "No, the master has completed his cultivation, and when the time comes, it has nothing to do with you and Saburo."

Wen Wan still felt uneasy, "Let's go in and have a look."

At this time, outside Master Xuyun's monastery, all the disciples were sitting on the ground, chanting scriptures in order.

In the Zen room, Master Xuyun was wearing a cassock and was sitting upright, with his hands on his knees, palms overlapping, and two thumbs touching, which is a posture for meditating in meditation.

If he hadn't lost his breath, his sitting posture was no different from normal.

Wen Wan and Zhao Xunyin only looked at it from a distance and couldn't get any closer. Afterwards, they asked the abbot, the abbot said that it was sitting, and when they went to the palace to report the letter, they would start to dispose of the master's body, which would be placed in a sitting tank. Within three years, it was taken out as a statue for him.

Flesh statues.

With Master Xuyun's cultivation realm, he is indeed worthy of such honor.

Wen Wan thought for a while and asked the abbot, "Did Master Xu Yun say anything before he passed away?"

The master abbot shook his head, "No."

Nodding gently, she smiled apologetically, "I'm bothering Master."

The master abbot said Amitabha Buddha.

Going down the mountain and getting into the carriage, Wen Wan always felt empty in her heart.

Although the abbot and other disciples didn't say anything, and Zhao Xunyin tried to reassure her that it had nothing to do with her, Wen Wan still felt guilty about Master Xu Yun's sudden death.

When the carriage was about to enter the city, there was a sudden sound of horseshoes in front of it, and the people were so frightened that they hid aside.

Wen Wan raised the curtain and looked out, and saw a dozen Jinyiwei wearing flying fish uniforms with embroidered spring knives on their waists, each of them had a cold face and stared straight ahead, as if there was something urgent to leave the city, and the speed was very fast, After a while, he ran away and disappeared.

"Is that case still unsolved?" Wen Wan frowned and clenched her fingers slightly.

During the days when Song Qi was sent to the capital, the atmosphere in the capital was already very tense. What the servant of the Chengwang Mansion said that day was not to scare Song Qi. Jin Yiwei was indeed handling the case. There was a case of dissecting children's hearts. The children who were killed ranged from common people to high officials and noble families. The places where the corpses were dumped were irregular.

Wen Wan couldn't think of anyone who would be so frenzied. Before, a corpse was found not far from Changning Hou's Mansion. At that time, many people saw it, but Wen Wan didn't dare to look. cold.

As a mother, you can't hear the news of children being abused or killed, even if it's someone else's child.

Zhao Xunyin said: "This case is very bizarre. The Ministry of Criminal Justice, Dali Temple and the Metropolitan Procuratorate jointly investigated for nearly a month, but there was no clue at all. Later, it was handed over to Jin Yiwei. Still, children were killed every once in a while. It's very deep, His Majesty has already become angry, if there is no way to catch the real culprit, I'm afraid several big yamen will suffer."

Wen Wan fell into deep thought, "Heart-digging, mother, what exactly is the murderer's motive?"

Zhao Xunyin shook his head.

"Can the mother get the files of this case? I want to see."

Zhao Xunyin thought for a while, and said to her: "If you are looking for me, you might as well go to Xie Zheng. Xie Zheng is on duty at the Ministry of Criminal Justice. These days, the Ministry of Criminal Justice is extremely busy. He should know a lot."

……

Because of this case, the Ministry of Criminal Justice even canceled the day of rest, Xie Zheng has been in the Yamen during the day, and Wen Wan only went to Xie's house when it was time for the Yamen.

After a few polite words with Aunt Xie and Yang Shi, Wen Wan pointed out that she came to Xie Zheng.

Guessing that Wen Wan had something serious to say, Xie Zheng invited Wen Wan to his study.

After sitting down, Xie Zheng said: "If you have anything to do with the princess, just say it!"

Wen Wan asked him, "How is the investigation of the case in charge of the criminal department recently?"

Unexpectedly, Wen Wan would ask this question, Xie Zheng was taken aback for a moment, hesitated for a moment, and said, "Recently, there are two cases in charge of the criminal department, I wonder which one the Princess is asking about?"

"Two cases?" Wen Wan was a little puzzled, "Isn't it a child's confession case? Besides this, what else?"

"There is another case, which is the theft of Yun's most precious treasure, Bihai Qingtian."

"You mean that bracelet?" Wen Wan remembered, how could it have been stolen from Xu Jia's wrist all the time?
"At that time, people from the Yun family chased them all the way, and when they reached the capital, they broke the clues." Xie Zheng said: "After all, Patriarch Yun has a job in the Ministry of War, and his status is special. Naturally, it is impossible for His Majesty to ignore it, so the Ministry of Punishment took this by the way." case, but until now, nothing has been found.”

Hearing what Xie Zheng said, Wen Wan suddenly realized something.

The last time Xu Jia sent her something, there was a bottle of medicine in it, Xu Jia said it could relieve her headaches, maybe the bracelet was no longer there at that time, and Xu Jia thought she needed it, so someone secretly stole it After leaving the capital, that's why you specially sent the medicine after him, in case she couldn't hold on to the pain and fainted?
Wen Wan is very sure that she has never let anyone do such a thing.

Yun's bracelet is useless to ordinary people. If it is priceless, there are too many priceless things in the treasury. To put it even worse, among the treasures in Song Wei's collection, several pieces have been taken out. They are more valuable than the blue sea and blue sky. If it is for money, wouldn't it be more cost-effective to steal Song Wei's collection directly?Why did he go all the way from the capital to Suzhou to steal a piece of ice chalcedony?
Seeing the change in Wen Wan's expression, Xie Zheng couldn't help asking: "Princess, what's wrong?"

"It's okay." Wen Wan shook her head, "Tell me about the child's heart-breaking case!"

For this case, Xie Zheng expressed embarrassment, "It's an internal secret, so I can't tell you more."

Wen Wan said: "I just want to see if I can help you."

No matter if she is in the position of a mother or the position of Princess Yufeng, she can't help but watch more children have accidents.

Seeing that Xie Zheng refused to open his mouth, Wen Wan said again: "Tell me first, I will go to the palace tomorrow morning to see His Majesty and ask for assistance in this case. Once he agrees, then you will not be regarded as leaking secrets."

Xie Zheng thought that Wen Wan had obtained His Majesty's permission to enter the court before Wen Wan. Although he was not in the same government office as him, but with Wen Wan's contribution to Beiyan, His Majesty would agree to her request, so he stopped being stubborn and sighed. Said: "I went to review the files with the servant during the day, and concluded that the children who were killed were of different ages, and one of them was even a full moon, but they all had one thing in common, that they were heartbroken."

Children who are only one month old are all attacked, what kind of conscienceless beasts can do this?

Wen Wan's face was ugly, "What else? Did you find anything else?"

"They are all boys. In terms of age, the existing cases are all under ten years old."

"Is there any rule to follow when and where the crime is committed?"

"No." Xie Zheng frowned and shook his head, "It is precisely because we can't find the rules that this case is very difficult to handle."

Jin Yiwei and the Sanfa Division's yamen can't catch the real culprit. Who will be behind the scenes?

Wen Wan pondered for a moment, then looked at Xie Zheng, "If it's convenient for you, go to the yamen tomorrow and copy a list for me. The more detailed the information about those children, their names, ages, and addresses, the better."

Xie Zheng nodded, "I will try my best."

……

On the carriage back to the Marquis of Changning, Wen Wan was still immersed in the case.

She was thinking, if she were the murderer, what would she do if her heart was dug out? Under what circumstances would a child's heart be needed?
However, Wen Wan didn't think of a clue until she got off the carriage.

……

The next day, Wen Wan went to the palace to meet the saint, met with Emperor Xuan Jing, mentioned the matter to him, and said that she would assist the Sanju Department in investigating the case.

Zhao Xi only thought that her predictive ability was still there, so he nodded in agreement and asked her to supervise the Sanju Department to speed up the case handling process.

After Xie Zheng came down to the Yamen, he came directly to the Marquis of Changning and gave her the list that Wen Wan wanted.

Wen Wan took it and glanced at it. Whether it was the name or the address, there were no rules. Some lived in the poor areas of the west city, and some lived in the rich areas of the inner city. One of them was actually from the Yongding Houfu, named Gao Hao .

If Wen Wan remembers correctly, this child is the biological son of Lu Yanbin's younger sister Lu Qiao, who is also the great-grandson of Duke Lu.

The great-grandson of the Lu family dared to move, no wonder His Majesty was so angry.

Wen Wan's hands holding the list trembled, and asked Xie Zheng, "Is Gao Hao dead?"

Xie Zheng was heartbroken, and nodded reluctantly, "Everyone who is on the list has already been dug out."

Hearing this, a chill ran from her back to Wen Wan's head.
