After the luck of rebirth was taken away, the true and false daughters teamed up

Chapter 272
Posthouses on official roads were generally built by the imperial court. They obeyed the imperial court's orders and were considered official.

The letters sent from the post office were naturally checked by the local government before being sent out.

Song Shiyun knew how powerful it was, and she checked the information on it carefully.

After seeing the content clearly, Song Shiyun frowned fiercely.

The letter stated that all 18 people in Jing Yuanyi's party died on the road from Xiping Official Road to Nanxi Official Road.

This section of the road is relatively remote.

There are mountains and forests.

The people at the post house went to check it out early the next morning when they saw blood and... stumps all over the ground while patrolling the official road.

It was discovered that Jing Yuanyi and his party, who had just been beaten by them the night before, all died on the official road.

Everyone died, no one survived.

Not only that, everyone's death was very tragic, as if they had been attacked and eaten by wild beasts. The wounds were rough and huge, and the fractures were uneven, with obvious teeth marks of wild beasts.

In addition, everyone's corpses were incomplete, and some parts seemed to have been eaten.

The whole description, what stands out is one word, miserable.

Song Shiyun frowned when she saw these contents. She raised her head and looked at Xie Rugu, "So, the local officials said it was a wild beast attack?"

Xie Ru nodded.

After the post office discovered all this, it reported it to the nearby government.

The local officials took Zuo Zuo to the scene. After careful inspection, they were very sure that it was an attack by a wild beast.

Song Shiyun's brows did not relax. She put the letter back on the desk, "But I remember that there are no deep mountains near the Xiping Official Road, only a low hillside. How could there be any beast hidden there?"

When Song Shiyun was Princess Shiyu, she had read the Chronicles of Mountains and Rivers.

It records the range of mountains and rivers in Daqing, as well as the characteristics of mountains and rivers in various places.

Song Shiyun used to like to look through it when he had nothing to do.

She clearly remembered that the Xiping Official Road was well maintained and there were no high mountains and dangerous peaks. In the Mountains and Rivers Chronicles, there was only one sentence that recorded that the Xiping Official Road only had a short hillside and was not suitable for use.

In other words, there are no natural or earthly treasures on the short hillside, and naturally there are no ferocious beasts.

How did the beast suddenly appear?
"This is really strange." Jingzhao Prefecture Yin stroked his beard, "I have never heard of this kind of thing happening in Xiping Official Road before. The letter sent by the post house also said that they used to come from I’ve never seen a wild beast appear before, maybe this is really an accident?”

When Song Shiyun and Xie Rugu heard this, they looked at each other subconsciously.

Obviously, they didn't think it was a simple accident.

"Will the corpse be returned to the capital?" Song Shiyun thought about this and asked the governor of Jingzhao.

The governor of Jingzhao nodded: "Yes, the magistrate of Yuyang County near Xiping Official Road has sent people to bring the body back. Xiping Official Road is very close to the capital. Tomorrow morning at the latest, Lord Jingyuan Yijing and his entourage will be sent back." The body will be returned to the capital."

Song Shiyun asked again: "Will it be sent directly to Jing's family or to Jingzhao's house?"

Jingzhao Prefect: "Logically speaking, this is an accident, and it should be sent directly to Jing's family."

Song Shiyun frowned and said, "But how can you be sure, sir, that this is an accident?"

After hearing this, Jingzhao Mansion paused, looked at Song Shiyun solemnly, and said in a deep tone, "Don't you think the second lady thinks this is not an accident?"

Song Shiyun asked back: "Do you think it's an accident, sir?"

The governor of Jingzhao hesitated and said: "When I heard it at first, it was indeed a bit suspicious. However, Wu Zuo has already examined the body. Since it is said to be the work of a ferocious beast, there should be no problem, right?"

There has indeed never been such an attack by a ferocious beast in Xiping Guandao before.

But it is also possible that the beast ran from other places and was not discovered by the patrollers at the first time.

It's not impossible either.

Jingzhao Prefecture Yin felt that this matter was not so suspicious.

When Song Shiyun heard this, he looked at Xie Rugu, "What do you think, Master Shizi?"

Xie Rugu looked into Song Shiyun's eyes and said, "I have doubts."

Song Shiyun nodded, "I think so too, I have doubts."

Jingzhao Fuyin's eyes flickered back and forth between the two of them, a little confused, "What do you two mean?"

Song Shiyun said directly: "Can you please ask Jingzhao Mansion to take the body back to Jingzhao Mansion, let us see it first, and then send it back to Jing's family?"

The governor of Jingzhao was a little embarrassed, "Jing Yuanyi is a court official after all. If there is no doubt about the cause of death, I have no right to intercept the bones..."

"However, Yuyang County is just a small place, and their work may not be reliable. Since Jing Yuanyi is a court official, the Jingzhao Mansion must pay attention to his death. It should be justified to re-examine the autopsy, right?" Song Shiyun hinted. road.Jingzhao Governor: "..."

Where does it come from?

It's far-fetched to say that.

Although it was a reluctant solution, Jingzhao Fuyin still hesitated.

After all, the current thoughts of Song Shiyun and Xie Rugu are just speculations without any evidence.

He had no reason to believe in Song Shiyun and Xie Rugu unconditionally.

Song Shiyun saw the hesitation of Jingzhao Prefecture Yin, and reminded: "Sir, we have helped Jingzhao Prefecture and Tiansi Bureau handle many cases in recent days, right? If there is any doubt about this case, please inform me in advance Isn’t it a great achievement to discover and solve it?”

Hearing this, the governor of Jingzhao looked at Song Shiyun.

Song Shiyun's words can be divided into two steps.

At the beginning, he said that he had helped Jingzhao Mansion handle many cases. The implication was that it was time for Jingzhao Mansion to repay them.

The second part is the inducement.

Although the excuse Song Shiyun just put forward was reluctant, it could still be used.

Even if nothing fishy was found in the end, the Jing family couldn't say anything about him.

But if it is found out, the cause of Jing Yuanyi's death will indeed be suspicious.

That was indeed a great achievement for Jingzhao Prefecture Yin.

The Yin of Jingzhao Prefecture was obviously a little shaken when he thought about this.

Song Shiyun took in his expression and added: "My lord, you have been sitting in this position for so many years. Don't you want to be promoted to a higher position?"

The governor of Jingzhao looked stunned.

The governor of Jingzhao in this dynasty is not as prosperous as the previous dynasty.

In the previous dynasty, those who could sit in the position of Jingzhao Fuyin were usually members of the royal family, or were members of the Kaifu Yitong Sansi, who worked part-time as Jingzhao Fuyin.

However, the status of the Jingzhao Governor of this dynasty has been greatly reduced. His current official position is only the third rank.

Although it is not low, he has stayed in this position for nearly seven years.

Now that he is getting older, he naturally wants to move up a level.

The governor of Jingzhao looked at Song Shiyun.

Song Shiyun's eyes were clear and he looked at him firmly and forcefully.

Jingzhao Prefecture Yin was infected by her look. Thinking of his own future, he decided to give it a try.

He gritted his teeth and said: "Since the Second Miss has said this, I will be disrespectful. After all, Jingzhao Mansion has indeed received help from the Second Miss many times. Now that the Second Miss has spoken, the Jingzhao Mansion naturally cannot refuse. Later, I will I will go to the Jing family in person to explain this situation to the Jing family, and at the same time I will go to the Ministry of Punishment and ask the Langguan from the Ministry of Punishment to assist."

Hearing this, Song Shiyun had a smile on his face, "Then I'll leave it to you, sir."

Seeing the speed of her change of expression, the governor of Jingzhao sighed inwardly, but did not dare to show any expression on his face. He smiled dryly and said: "This is what we should do..."

"Then I will wait for the good news from your lord." Song Shiyun saluted Yin Fu of Jingzhao Mansion and said goodbye.

Now we can only wait for news from Jingzhao Prefecture.

It was meaningless for her to continue to stay in Jingzhao Mansion.

After hearing this, Xie Rugu also said hello to Jingzhao Mansion, and left Jingzhao Mansion with Song Shiyun.

After coming out of Jingzhao Mansion, the smile on Song Shiyun's face disappeared without a trace in an instant, replaced by a deep look of deep thought.

Xie Rugu looked at her and said warmly: "Still thinking about Xiping official road?"

Song Shiyun glanced at him, "Don't you think about this matter, Prince?"

Xie Rugu smiled lightly, "I'm thinking about it, but it's useless now."

He was telling the truth.

There's not much they can do now.

When Song Shiyun heard this, he paused for two seconds, suddenly turned around, and bowed to Xie Ru.

Xie Rugu subconsciously held her arm, dragged her up, and said unhappily: "Second sister, are you too polite to me?"
