The Delicate Lady Coroner

After the lock was fastened, Huo Weilou let her go, glanced at her injured hand, handed her only one handguard, and said solemnly, "This thing is a tribute of Xiliang country. Woven with copper wire and silver wire, it is soft and fits in hand, but also can block water and heat. You can wear this thing for post-mortem examinations, and you will be less susceptible to corpse poisoning."

Bo Ruoyou naturally saw this thing as a handguard at first glance, but she had never seen a precious thing. She followed Cheng Yunzhi's autopsy since she was a child. In a small place like Qingshan County, even leather handguards are rare. Cheng Yunzhi didn't care about these things. She didn't care about these details, but occasionally there were too rotten corpses, and she always had to suffer some pain on her hands.

Bo Ruoyou wears one hand and holds the other, and looks a little dazed. This thing has cold tentacles, but it is extremely soft and not like a copper and silver woven fabric, and it is lined with a layer of soft but extremely resilient fur. The five fingers are distinct and light. The lining is really better than the deerskin handguards that I brought for Ming Guilan the day before.

But she didn't expect that Huo Weilou would reward this thing, it was a tribute.

"Master Hou—"

Huo Weilou had already expected her to look like this. How could she have seen such a good thing when she grew up in Qingshan County? So the brows raised, and the tone was unquestionable: "Since I have given you it, just keep it." After a pause, he said: "Although the prince is strict, he has never been rewarded by his merits. You are not the first to receive the prince's reward. man of."

Bo Ruoyou hesitated for a moment, "Given by Lord Hou, I dare not give it, but this thing is a tribute, and it is not worthy of this thing because of the merit of the people's daughter..."

Huo Weilou stared, "This case will definitely be solved."

Bo Ruoyou's lips pressed slightly, and he whispered softly, "Even if the case is solved, there won't be any tribute to the people."

Huo Weilou looked at her disapprovingly for two moments, but moved his gaze away and said lightly, "You know your identity." After that, "After this case, you might still be useful to you, if you feel that This thing is not appropriate, it will always be useful to you in the future."

Seeing that Bo Ruoyou seemed to have something to say, Huo Weilou narrowed his eyes, and his voice became dangerous.

Bo Ruo narrowed his eyes and quickly made a choice, "Thank you, Lord Hou."

Huo Weilou was satisfied. Seeing that although her eyebrows were pleasing to the eye, her eyebrows were frowning, as if she was reluctant to be rewarded by him, so he waved his hand impatiently, "Get down."

Bo Ruoyou Fushen turned around and went out. As soon as he left the door, he saw Father Fu guarding the door, and seeing her holding a handguard in her hand, there was a smile between her eyebrows and eyes, "Don't be afraid of you, Lord Hou will always reward you. Just hold it. If our family and the following embroidered clothes ambassadors have merit, Lord Hou will also reward one or two, gold, silver, jade, and precious weapons.

I see…

Bo Ruoyou's heart relaxed, "It's like this, even if it's so, the people's daughter will do her best to do the errands for Lord Hou."

Father Fu couldn't help laughing when he heard the words. At this moment, Huo Qinghong and Ming Guilan were too late to arrive, and they both saw the handguard in Bo Ruoyou's hand. Huo Qinghong said, "Hey...this thing. Looks familiar."

Ming Guilan was very knowledgeable and "is a tribute to the Xiliang Kingdom."

Huo Qinghong raised his eyebrows, and the look in Bo Ruoyou's eyes grew a little deeper, and Bo Ruoyou's heart was frizzy with his eyes, and after retiring, he returned to his house.

Huo Qinghong pushed Ming Guilan into the upper room and said as soon as he entered the door: "Brother, why do you give her the tribute of Xiliang Country?"

Father Fu smiled and said, "Youyou have done so badly. It is not surprising that Master Hou has given him something. The elder son didn't see it. Youyou's hands were so cold earlier that they were red and swollen when they were stained with corpse water."

With that said, Father Fu suddenly raised his brows, "Speaking of which, although Lord Hou gave generously in the past, he has not been so caring, Lord Hou, you wouldn't be..."

Huo Weilou hadn't spoken yet, Huo Qinghong said, "Father-in-law, where did you think about it? If my elder brother wants to be a beautiful woman, does he still need to use this way? He gave an order, who doesn't want to be the person next to him? I feel that this little girl is quite scheming."

Father Fu laughed, "What does the elder son say?"

Huo Qinghong squinted her eyes and said righteously: "I was wondering how the elder brother was so good and suddenly chose a woman to take with him, but now it seems that she has quite a means. Trying to pretend to pretend that you are only doing errands for your eldest brother, and finally, another beauty trick will make your eldest brother treat her differently!"

Huo Qinghong sighed, "Wonderful, my elder brother hates flattering greeters the most, she has taken a different approach, wonderful!"

Huo Weilou looked at it narrowly, "Now that you can figure it out, how about I recommend you to Dali Temple?"

Huo Qinghong's unpredictable expression changed, and he immediately laughed, "No wonder big brother, she is really a delicate and tender little beauty, but she has done a good job, and followed her to Luozhou for the trial. It is really weird, I want to come. If I want to go, I think she’s just trying to conspiracy against Big Brother..."

Huo Weilou slapped, "There are so many people in the world who have shown me, how can she rely on it?"

Huo Weilou has the right to go into the field, some people try his power, some people seek his power, men and women want to follow him up, but if he talks so well, there will be no nickname for the jade-faced hell.

Huo Qinghong said: "Reliance? Isn't that obvious? Of course she relies on her face. Doesn't the eldest brother think she is beautiful?"

Huo Weilou frowned, "Where is she beautiful?"

The people in the room were taken aback for a moment, but did not expect him to ask this. Ming Guilan laughed out loudly, "Hou Ye, it turns out that you are blessed with other things, but only Jianmei is a little bit more obvious... Some are unique."

Huo Qinghong smiled, "Big Brother, although you don't think she is beautiful, you must not underestimate a woman. Women in this world really have too many tricks. Those with low ranks show their weakness, those with high ranks. Pretending to be unintentional to you, but inadvertently teasing you into the invisible, when you are moved to her, but she is still very innocent as if she doesn't know anything. If you are really hooked, you will be convinced by her. At this point, You can offer whatever she wants, and in the end there is no scum left to be deceived."

Huo Qinghong sighed as if through the vicissitudes of life, "My brother, I have a deep understanding of this. Most of my money was defrauded by those little fairies last year. I regret it. I regret it now."

Huo Weilou squinted his eyes, "You have been fooling around in the brothel all year ago?"

Huo Qinghong's expression changed, and he coughed: "No, no, I'm just giving an example... In short, don't take it lightly, Big Brother!"

Father Fu couldn't laugh or cry, "My son, the old slaves also thought about it earlier, thinking that it is really impossible for a little girl to come to Luozhou alone with us. Maybe she really has a plan for our Lord Hou, but then Youyou was willing to come. The old slave doesn't think like that anymore. She wants to come over with Lord Hou this time."

Huo Qinghong stared, "Look! See what I said, she said clearly that she wanted something. If she finishes the case, what will she do with her eldest brother in the future? Or, she simply said What should I do if I want to be the person next to my eldest brother?" At this point, Huo Qinghong stood up straight, "She doesn't want to be Mrs. Wu Zhaohou?!"

Huo Weilou had a headache, "She is not as bold as she is, look at what you have been thinking all day?"

Huo Qinghong sat down again, and said nerdy: "This...Isn't this to be vigilant for the eldest brother, because the eldest brother has a high position, he is worthy, and it should be the daughter of the family to the family..."

"You shut up." Huo Weilou was already impatient to listen to his nonsense. "After returning to Beijing this time, it's time for you to enter the dynasty for a while."

Huo Qinghong suddenly narrowed his mouth, "Big Brother..."

As soon as Huo Weilou raised his hand, Huo Qinghong had to hum and swallow the begging for mercy. Ming Guilan hurriedly turned his head when he saw it, "I heard that Miss Bo was looking for something in the Buddhist scripture building?"

Speaking of the case, Huo Weilou looked upright, "I was looking for records related to the relics, but by mistake, I discovered that a Buddhist scripture containing the five-fold treasure letters was lost. Now it has been found that someone bought it ten years ago. The Buddhist scriptures may be related to the theft of the relics."

Ming Guilan said: "I read two books about the secret medicine of Buddhism, but they mentioned the relics. It is said that after death, if a person can mouth the relics, he will not be corrupted for a thousand years. In addition, the folks The relics are still circulated, such as eliminating all diseases and prolonging life. The most exaggerated is that the relics can bring back to life, but these have no evidence."

Ming Guilan was originally a doctor, and he naturally heard a lot of these rumors. Huo Weilou pondered for a moment: "It is extremely difficult to investigate the murderer's stolen relics. Right now, I can only start with Jingkong and Feng Lun's death. After walking through the Buddhist scriptures, I went to find the officials who were left for investigation. But one night later, the clear space disappeared, and the few people left never mentioned that someone bought the Buddhist scriptures. In this way, it was confirmed that there were some of them and the clear space. Death is related."

Ming Guilan thought for a while, "Feng Lun is dead this time, did he find the murderer of the year, or is he also one of the insiders?"

What Ming Guilan said was something that Huo Weilou had not thought about before. If the insider was not one person, but two or more people, then the matter was covered up, and now the insider's infighting caused Feng Lun to be murdered. possible.

Huo Weilou is also difficult to conclude, "This may still need to be verified. Feng Lun is the chief official and is familiar with Jingkong. It was true that Jingkong was most likely to find him back then. If he was one of the insiders, he would have explained it well. "

It's just that, there may be too many, and the case becomes more complicated and confusing.

Huo Weilou took out the painting again to look at it, and then sent Father Fu to the front, "You were there back then, please take a look and see what anomalies might be recalled."

Father Fu unfolded the drawing, "Jing Ming painted meticulously, and the old slave can't remember it. After reading this picture, I immediately recalled it, but if the three adults said that it was only raining that day, the scene was a bit chaotic. At other times, everyone has hardly moved their positions, but when it rains, there are guards from the imperial forest guards in the corridors around the ceremony platform, and it is impossible to disappear in full view."

"At that time, I was preparing for the ceremony. Feng Lun and Yue Mingquan were originally in Luozhou. They were the first to arrive, followed by Wu Yu. Both Wu Yu and Wang Qingfu are officials of the capital. Although Wu Yu is a civil official, he has some talents."

Huo Weilou looked at the painting outlined by the ink line and muttered, and said: "The night Feng Lun died, Wu Yu and Wang Qingfu could testify to each other, but Yue Mingquan had no one to testify."

Ming Guilan said: "Ms. Bo once said that Master Feng had many bruises on her body, and she had fought with her in life."

Huo Weilou nodded, "The person who killed Feng Lun did have some skill, and the tactics of being frightened and murdered were cruel. If the murderer was the same person, that person would not only have good skills, but also had a lot of knowledge about human bones, and had a very strong aspiration. "

After ordinary people murdered, most of them were flustered, and those who could murder the empty space not only mutilated them, but also hid the corpse inside the Buddha statue. Huo Weilou frowned, "Is there no news from Jizhou?"

Fu Gong said: "Counting that our people have just arrived just two days ago, I am afraid it will take some time to find the craftsmen of the year."

Huo Weilou's expression was dim.

Father Fu was busy.

As the night fell, because it rained during the day, it was extremely cold at night, and Bo Ruoyou stayed in the wing before he was called. The case was found here. The cause of Feng Lun’s death, the place where he was killed, and the murder weapon have all been ascertained. Although there is a conclusion about the killing of Clearance, the cause of death and the murder weapon are still difficult to determine. The murderous manual machine may be related to the theft of the relic, but how the relic was stolen in the first place has not been solved yet, and the thoughts in his heart are confused. , I saw that rare handguard in a blink of an eye.

The swelling on the back of her hand has disappeared, and only a black green remains, so she carefully put on the handguard that she hadn't worn in the afternoon, moved her knuckles, and her upset suddenly disappeared.

Putting away his handguards, Bo Ruoyou went on the couch and rested, and soon his breathing began to grow.

The next morning, when Huo Weilou got up, Bo Ruoyou was waiting outside. Seeing her so early every day, Huo Weilou gave birth to two points of Gu Xi for no reason, "Neither need an autopsy, why are you so early?"

Bo Ruoyou said: "The girl wants to use the method of steaming bones to re-examine the body of Master Jingkong."

"The method of steaming bones?" Huo Weilou raised his eyebrows.

Bo Ruoyou nodded: "This method was taught by the adoptive father, not to hide it from the Lord Hou. Before this, the daughter of the people only used it by the adoptive father, and he has not tried it."

Huo Weilou looked at Bo Ruoyou for a moment, "Just try it."

Bo Ruoyou felt a little loose in his heart. Soon, Huo Weilou took a group of people to the morgue's yard. When they arrived in front of the yard, they saw that Wu Yu and Wang Qingfu had arrived.

Wu Yu said: "The two officials were afraid that Lord Hou would be called, so they came here early today to wait for each other."

Huo Weilou glanced at the two of them, but saw that there were wet marks on the bottom of Wang Qingfu's clothes. Wang Qingfu smiled bitterly: "The official hasn't done laundry for a few days. Yesterday, I found that the clothes were dirty when I was exposed to the rain and changed clothes. Then I hurriedly washed two of them. Today, Brother Wu is in a hurry, so the next official had to wear wet clothes..."

Wu Yu laughed: "Brother Wang has a lot of servants in the capital. This time, your Majesty has made us sloppy, so I'm not used to it anymore."

Wang Qingfu sighed, "I shouldn't be lazy when I watched Brother Wu wash clothes that day."

The two are very familiar, and the few words are quite homely, but Bo Ruoyou frowned slightly at hearing, "When did Master Wu wash the laundry?"

Wu Yu said: "I can do laundry every day in the past few days, so I'm used to it."

Bo Ruoyou didn't ask too much, Huo Wei said in the corridor: "Wizuo wants to examine the corpse again. There is no question for the time being, you can go back and rest."

Wu Yu didn't leave, "Then we will wait here."

Huo Wei Building entered the courtyard, and said thinly, "The girl washes the bones first. Please send someone to dig a cellar outside the temple. The cellar should be five feet long, three feet wide, and two feet deep, and then use charcoal and firewood. Burn in it until the inner wall of the cellar is burnt red."

Although Bo Ruoyou’s method is not known, Huo Weilou sent someone to dig the cellar. In the courtyard, Bo Ruoyou washed the bones first, and then he was brought to the cellar with two liters of wine and five liters of vinegar. go.

The cellar excavated by the embroiderer is on the **** by the white birch forest. At this moment, the open fire in the cellar has burned the red radiance of the cellar. The embroiderer took out the charcoal and other objects and poured vinegar and wine on it. Inside, taking advantage of the heat, the bones of the clear space were put in, and the cellar was sealed again.

"It takes two hours to steam the bones." After finishing speaking, Bo Ruoyou raised his eyes to look at the sky, "The weather is sunny today, I don't think it will rain."

Fu Gong said, "This is not necessarily true. I saw that the weather was good yesterday, and then it suddenly rained."

Bo Ruoyou had to sigh, "I just want it to rain."

Wu Yu and Wang Qingfu also followed all the way. Seeing Bo Ruoyou's weird method, they both showed a suspicion. Bo Ruoyou stood aside and leaned to touch the cellar mouth. Seeing that the touch was hot, they used the wet soil on the side. The entrance of the cave was sealed tightly, "When the temperature in the cellar has dissipated, the skeleton can be taken out. The time is quite long, and Lord Hou and the two adults can go back to the temple and wait."

Huo Weilou nodded, the embroidered clothes ambassador put away the wine jars and other things on the side, leaving Father Fu and the two embroidered clothes ambassadors to accompany Bo Ruoyou, and the others went back to the yard together.

Bo Ruoyou didn't know if this method was useful, and a heart was always hanging. After waiting for two hours, he asked the embroiderer to open the cellar. The red cellar was completely warm at this moment, leaving only some residual warmth. She and the two embroiderers took out the bones and placed them on the felt blanket, and ordered the embroiderers to return to the temple to fetch the umbrellas.

When the embroiderer came back, he saw Huo Weilou following along with Ming Guilan and Huo Qinghong. Both of them were afraid that this method was unheard of. They were both quite curious. Huo Qinghong just came here. Asked, "Can this method be useful? Where did you learn it?"

Huo Weilou only felt he was noisy, "Shut up."

Huo Qinghong touched his nose, stepped back and stopped speaking.

Bo Ruoyou held an umbrella and hit the bones, while still explaining: "It was taught by the righteous father. Whether it is useful or not, it remains to be tested—"

Just after saying this, Bo Ruoyou frowned. Once she concentrated on the autopsy, her expression was quite condensed. Huo Qinghong still had a lot of questions, but he didn't dare to ask more, only to see Bo Ruoyou kneeling. On the felt blanket, he took a piece of cotton wool in his hand and wiped it lightly on the bones. The candles made of fleshy flesh fell off after being baked. Soon, Bo Ruoyou noticed a few traces of faintness that had penetrated into the bones. Blood shade.

Not long after, Bo Ruoyou straightened up and said, "Dare to ask Lord Hou, if a person has practiced martial arts for years, is there a martial arts routine? When attacking an opponent, the opponent's injuries are roughly similar?"

Huo Weilou knew that Bo Ruoyou had discovered something, and his voice sank, "Naturally, there are many changes in martial arts in the world. It is Buddhism. There are also many ways. One is limited by the number of martial arts. Your own habit naturally also has a habitual style of play when attacking opponents."

The style of play is similar, and the wounds left by them are naturally quite similar. Bo Ruoyou's eyes light up slightly, "Master Hou, although Master Jingkong has been killed for ten years, there are still many stab wounds on his bones except here. Bruises after suffering a heavy injury. This heavy injury left a slight bone crack on his bones. These bone cracks are no longer visible after many years, but after this steaming, the signs of aging are exposed. After coming out, Minnu found that the blood halo on Master Jingkong's bones was consistent with the wounds left on Master Feng. The murderer ten years ago and the murderer who killed Master Feng were mostly the same."

The case was much clearer when the fog was lifted away. However, Bo Ruoyou said: "But—the murderer first fisted together, and finally used a sharp weapon. This is a bit strange. Just like Master Feng’s death, if the murderer brought a sharp weapon to do it The murder weapon, why do you have to fight against it..."

If you want to kill, naturally seek a quick fight, entangled with fists and feet, and it is easy to produce variables. If you have a weapon, why not directly attack with a sharp weapon. Huo Weilou narrowly said, "What if there were two people back then?"

"One person fights with fists and feet, one kills it with a sharp weapon, or, after the clearance is controlled, it kills it with a sharp weapon."

Bo Ruoyou's eyes gleamed slightly, "It is indeed possible."

"If there were two murderers back then, and Master Feng was one of them, then Master Feng could only be the one who made a weapon among them. After many years, the old thing suddenly happened in the east, and the two were in conflict, or the other person could not rest assured, so he killed him. But if Master Feng has nothing to do with this matter, then there are two others at large."

Huo Weilou instructed: "Send Yue Mingquan and the three of them, and the prince will interrogate them one by one."

The place of interrogation was still in the morgue's yard, and the empty corpse was also moved back, with two remains in front of them. If the murderer was really in it, I'm afraid it would be two more shocking.

Huo Weilou had only routine inquiry earlier, but this time it was a separate interrogation. Wu Yu is now a veteran. Seeing this, Huo Weilou has obtained new clues, and the three of him are even more suspicious.

The first person to be called in was Yue Mingquan. Wu Yu and Wang Qingfu stayed outside. Ming Guilan and Huo Qinghong also stood aside bored. After Bo Ruoyou placed the corpse, they were also waiting outside.

Huo Qinghong thought of the words yesterday, and suddenly wanted to try Bo Ruoyou, not afraid of death, he came forward with a smile, and shouted in a self-confessed affectionate voice: "Youyou—"

Bo Ruoyou raised his eyebrows, his beautiful eyes opened slightly, and he looked at Huo Qinghong incomprehensibly.

Huo Qinghong stepped forward, "Guess what I'm thinking in my heart?"

Bo Ruoyou was a little helpless, "The girl doesn't know it."

Huo Qinghong glanced at the paper money rune placed aside in the house, "It seems that I have to show the Buddha to the Buddha so that you can understand my intentions—"

I saw Huo Qinghong enter the door, first lit the joss sticks with everyone on his back, then took a piece of scripture rune paper left over from the memorial clearance and burned it, and then grabbed the remaining ashes in his palms with both hands. He Shi, he bowed in the direction of the Great Hall of Great Heroes, and said: "Buddha Buddha, please show your spirit, let Youyou see my heart, I fell in love with her at first sight."

Bo Ruoyou looked at Huo Qinghong with a strange expression on his face, but Huo Qinghong smiled and walked up to Bo Ruoyou, and saw that he spread out his hands holding the paper ash, and then gently blew the ashes.

Bo Ruoyou had never taken it seriously, but at this moment, something strange happened. In Huo Qinghong's clean palm, the word "you" appeared somehow, one on his left hand and one on his right. her name!

Bo Ruoyou looked at Huo Qinghong in surprise, and Huo Qinghong smiled and said, "Youyou, do you believe me?"

Bo Ruoyou's color of surprise was written brightly on his face, Huo Qinghong was very proud, but Bo Ruoyou was surprised, "I didn't expect the world to do such a simple trick. NS."

The corners of Huo Qinghong's lips twitched, and his smile seemed to cry.
