Da Song Private Investigator

It was late at night, and the moonlight shone through the window lattice into a wing room.

There was a person lying on the bed in the wing room, and the moonlight shining on her face could vaguely tell that she was a woman.

But apart from that, blood was oozing from the corner of the woman's mouth. The blood seemed to be still flowing, falling drop by drop, and the head of the bed had turned blood red.

There is a farmhouse not far from Jinchan Temple, and the rooster crows at dawn. The monks in the temple got up in a hurry when they heard the rooster crowing. For myself, and for the pilgrims in the monastery.

When the day was getting brighter, the pilgrims in the monastery had already woken up one after another, and the meals had already been prepared, but when they were having breakfast at the pilgrim gate, there was a sudden exclamation from one of the wing rooms, If you listen carefully, you can faintly hear the cries of dead people.

When the sound rang, Hwarang was still recuperating on the bed, but when he heard the sound, he knew what happened here, so he didn't care about going back to sleep, got dressed and rushed out.

When Hwarang rushed out, the guards of Baxian King had already served Baxian King and walked towards the place where the sound was made. Baxian King saw Hualang and said, "You are awake too, so come along!"

The courtyard where the sound came from was very close to Hwarang’s and the others’ courtyard, and they were within a few steps. When they walked in, there were several monks and some crying women standing inside. Needless to say, those who had the accident must be those A relative of a woman.

Those monks guarded the door of the room where the accident happened, not allowing anyone to enter, and said that they had sent people to the city to report the incident, and people from the government would come soon. At this time, Hua Langruo showed the emperor's token , or if the Eighth Sage King said a word, they could go in to investigate immediately, but the Eighth Sage King seemed to want to see the efficiency of the court officials, so he didn't speak, and just waited in the small courtyard.

Hwarang is a little anxious about the current situation. He is used to handling cases and knows the importance of entering the scene of the crime early. If he enters late, he may lose some important clues. But now the Baxian King is unwilling to speak. , it is not good for him to investigate first, otherwise the Eight Sage Kings will think that he is a person who likes to show off!

It was only Chen Shi, the sun had just risen from the east, and the sun was very warm and soft. There were a few young saplings planted in the courtyard, and it was not long before new buds sprouted. Hua Lang looked at the saplings that were not crisp, I feel more and more bored.

Hwarang felt bored, so he couldn't help but pay attention to those crying women. There were four crying women at this time, two of them were dressed in gorgeous clothes and wept the most. , although crying, it can give people a very fake feeling, and one of the women in red is even a little secretly happy.

Hwarang felt that the deceased must be an annoying person, otherwise how could her servant girl be happy when she died. Of course, other possibilities are not ruled out.

While Hwarang was observing the women, the abbot of Jinchan Temple hurried over with some people. After he arrived, he didn't go to see the Baxian King and others. He went directly to the monks and asked : "Have you sent someone to report to the officials?"

The monk nodded again and again: "I have sent people there!"

Although he got an affirmative answer, the abbot still looked worried. Hwarang glanced at the abbot. He should be in his 40s, with a round face, giving off a benign and friendly look. There is no feeling of a master.

According to Hwarang's understanding, monks should have nothing to do with all things, and they should be very open about birth, old age, sickness, death, fame, wealth, vanity, etc., but the abbot in front of him made Hwarang not feel this way.

They waited for about half an hour, and half an hour later, Ouyang Xiu and Bao Zheng hurried over. Ouyang Xiu is the governor of the capital, so he was naturally coming. So it is also possible to come, but it is a bit strange that the two of them rushed here together.

But Ouyang Xiu and Bao Zheng were also very surprised to see Hwarang and the Eight Wise Kings here together. They thought it was unbelievable. Shu talked about finding Nanqing Palace, and then about staying overnight here, and after finishing speaking, he asked, "Why did Brother Bao come here with Master Ouyang?"

Bao Zheng smiled and said: "Last night I reviewed the prison lawsuits in the prison and found a case that was very suspicious, so I discussed it with Master Ouyang. As soon as I entered Kaifeng Mansion, I met a monk who reported the case. I think As the supervisory censor, I am also responsible for the investigation of the murder case, so I followed Mr. Ouyang."

At this time, Ouyang Xiu said with a smile: "Master Bao has settled many cases in Tianchang County and Duanzhou. I thought that Master Bao might be able to help."

Bao Zheng hurriedly said modestly, "There is Hwarang here, and the one who can help the most is Hwarang. Lord Ouyang can't let him go."

Ouyang Xiu repeatedly said yes, and after explaining the situation to the Baxian King, he brought Bao Zheng and Hua Lang to the scene of the murder. As soon as they entered the room, they saw a woman in her 40s lying on the bed. The woman was not covered with a quilt, her face was facing the door, and there was blood on her mouth, she looked very scary.

The bed looked a little messy, and it could be seen that the deceased had struggled strongly before being killed.

Ouyang Xiu came to the bed to have a look, and found that the blood in the mouth of the deceased was black, so he thought that he died of poisoning. Hwarang and Bao Zheng also made the same determination, but after Ouyang Xiu said those words, Hwarang asked Pull out the clothes of the deceased and examine them. As the prefect of Kaifeng, Ouyang Xiu is very taboo about such things that Hua Lang said, so he said: "Otherwise, find a woman to come."

Hwarang seemed a little indifferent, and said: "Whoever examines a woman, you must avoid suspicion, otherwise you will ignore many clues. Since Mr. Ouyang thinks it is against the etiquette to do so, let me do it." Hwarang said Then, he took off the clothes of the woman on the bed, and then carefully inspected the whole body of the deceased. No trauma was found on the body of the deceased, but some liquid left by men and women after having sex was found on the body of the deceased. Of course, the liquid was dry at this time, but judging from the situation, it can still be concluded that it was left by the deceased and the man Huanhao last night.

After hearing Hua Lang's words, everyone was very surprised. They couldn't understand how could a woman be happy with a man in this holy place of Buddhism?
