King of Song

Chapter 15 Where Does Pregnancy Come From?

Looking at Lin Zhaoyuan's back, Meng Ruoying burst into tears again. When she was most desperate, he brought hope.She believed that Lin Zhao would find out the truth, rescue herself from the prison, and avenge her brother.In the tearful eyes of the mother-in-law, Lin Zhao's firm footsteps gradually walked into the girl's heart...

Lin Zhao came here to inquire about the circumstances of the crime, but more importantly, to comfort Meng Ruoying and make her feel at ease!He was really worried that Miss Meng would not be able to bear the pain of prison, and would suffer too much depression and despair.

In the prison, Lin Zhao told the female prison guard to take good care of Meng Ruoying, and Gu Yuelun would deliver the food directly after cooking.Because the magistrate came with him, the cell chief and jailer naturally didn't dare to disobey, and agreed with a nod and bow.

Even so, the prison was dark, damp, and filthy, and it was not a place for people to stay at all.Lin Zhao has already made up his mind that he must rescue Meng Ruoying as quickly as possible.

After Meng Ruoying was settled, Lin Zhao, accompanied by Wang Yu, went straight to the county government office to meet the county magistrate Shao Wenquan.What needs to be known now is the results of the autopsy and on-site investigation.

Shao Wenquan was very surprised, why did the magistrate bring a book boy from the Meng family to the door, and asked about the details of the investigation!Although he was puzzled, he didn't dare to say no. He finally submitted this hot potato to the government office. If he failed to cooperate, it would be troublesome if Wang Zhifu blamed him.What's more, there is still a little book boy who can speak eloquently, he doesn't want to be Zhu Xueli's second!

The officers at the work and inspection site received the summons and rushed over quickly. They thought it was the pusher from the government office who came to inquire.What I didn't want to see was a young man in coarse linen, everyone was full of doubts.

Shao Wenquan, the magistrate, said: "Brother Lin was appointed by the magistrate to participate in the investigation of the murder of Mr. Meng. You must answer his questions truthfully!"

Lin Zhao didn't talk nonsense, and directly stepped forward and said, "Are you a co-author? What's the result of the autopsy?"

Wu Zuo said: "It has been checked, and Mr. Meng was killed by a sharp object piercing a blood vessel in his neck. After comparison, the murder weapon was the candlestick at the scene."

Lin Zhao nodded and asked, "Well! What is the direction and angle of the wound?"

"angle?"

"Uh..." Lin Zhao said, "That is to say, is the murder weapon a flat stab, or an upward thrust from bottom to top? Or a downward thrust from top to bottom?"

"This... is in a hurry, and I haven't had time to check it out in detail!"

"So sloppy?" Lin Zhao was quite dissatisfied, and continued to ask: "Is there any other scars on the body, any other clues?"

"Uh... no..."

Seeing Wu Zuo's flustered expression, Lin Zhao shouted, "Is it not, or is there no inspection at all? Answer truthfully!"

Wu Zuo was shocked, and said in a low voice: "The Meng family is a big family, and they are already preparing to collect the remains. It is inconvenient to check carefully in front of the Meng family, otherwise they will be said to be disrespectful to the deceased."

"Dereliction of duty! Hastily ignored the clues, how to help the deceased to get justice? This is the greatest disrespect to the deceased!" Lin Zhao was furious.If she hadn't intervened, Meng Ruoying would have been wronged with the attitude of the Jiangning County guards in handling the case!

The performance of his subordinates made Shao Wenquan feel a little uneasy. At the same time, he secretly rejoiced that it was right to hand over the case, otherwise these people would be able to find out the ass!At the same time, I was also a little worried, whether Wang Yu who was present would tell his father?Will the prefect Wang blame him?
He didn't know that Wang Yu was also secretly rejoicing, it seemed that he was right to choose Lin Zhao, and he was indeed much better than his servants.His father and son hope that the case will be concluded as soon as possible under the premise of a good sentence and no grievances. Now it seems that it is not difficult.

Lin Zhao asked again: "Then what's the result of the on-site investigation?"

"No abnormalities were found!"

Is it because there are no clues, or are these gangs of drunkards negligent in their duties?Lin Zhao had no intention of interfering with the matter. Fortunately, the scene had been sealed, and further investigations could be carried out. It's just that the autopsy...

Lin Zhao asked, "Wu Zuo, can you examine the corpse carefully again?"

"I'm afraid it won't work!" Wu Zuo quickly waved his hand and said, "Before I left, the Meng Manor had already collected the corpse and buried it. The deceased was a big one. I'm afraid it would be inconvenient to check again. Relatives' consent is required..."

Lin Zhao suddenly had black lines all over his head, and now it's a bit troublesome. Can Mrs. Meng agree to another autopsy?Presumably that bitch Li Shi will do everything possible to obstruct her.Wu Zuo's sloppy autopsy has ended, and it is reasonable for the family members to disagree.In ancient times, the dead are the most important, even the government has nothing to do!

A detective once said: Corpses don't lie!Lin Zhao believes that there must be clues on Meng Ruogu's body, and it is also the most direct evidence, which is indispensable.

Now how to do?Unless Mrs. Meng is persuaded first, is this possible?

It was getting late, Lin Zhao had no choice but to say goodbye to Wang Yu and go home.My heart is full of worries, wondering how Meng Ruoying will sleep peacefully in the prison tonight?The autopsy must find evidence as soon as possible.However, in the Meng Mansion, the old lady used to have a lot of words, but now Li Shi has a golden belly, and her right to speak has been greatly improved. If she pours some ecstasy soup to the old lady Meng, there will be great resistance!

Meng Ruogu didn't go home for more than a month, and Li's pregnancy probably wasn't from the Meng family, but was regarded as a treasure by the whole family, it's really ironic...

Hey, a flash of inspiration came to Lin Zhao's mind. If Mrs. Li's stomach is not from the blood of the Meng family, will Mrs. Meng's attitude change?Li's testimony is not credible, this is the crux of the problem!How did you ignore it before?

While Lin Zhao blamed himself, he was also thinking about clues and evidence. What exactly were those medicinal residues collected last time?Can it come in handy?Another one is Meng Ruogu's itinerary...

After sleeping in a daze all night, Lin Zhao got up early in the morning and went straight to the pharmacy with the dregs of the medicine in his arms.The doctor sitting in the hall looked at the young man in front of him curiously, didn't he know what the medicine he took was?Without further explanation, Lin Zhao took out ten copper coins and said, "Mr. please help me to see what kind of medicinal materials are these medicines? What are their effects?"

"Okay!" Seeing that Qian's eyes were open, the doctor smiled and opened the small cloth bag Lin Zhao brought, and identified them one by one: "Parbor, comfrey, silkworm cloth, Peilan, Huanhuacao, borneol..." As he spoke, Mulu asked suspiciously: "May I ask who took this medicine?"

Well!Is there anything wrong?Lin Zhaodao: "Don't ask about this, just tell me the effect of this medicine!"

The doctor sitting in the hall said: "This is a contraceptive pill..."

"Birth control pills?"

Seeing Lin Zhao's stunned expression, the doctor said with a knowing expression, "Yes, women who take this medicine after intercourse will not be able to conceive."

I see!Lin Zhao suddenly became enlightened and understood many things, and immediately left with the important evidence of medicinal dregs.Behind him, the doctor became suspicious. Could it be that the little lady took the medicine secretly and refused to conceive and have children for him?Poor lad!
Lin Zhao returned to Meng Mansion full of joy, and went straight to Meng Ruogu's study to find another clue.Unexpectedly, on the way, he happened to meet that bitch of the Li family, dressed in the filial attire of a survivor, and was going to cry for Meng Ruogu.

"Lin Zhao? Where are you going? Are you really going to avenge that lowly girl who murdered her brother?" Meng Ruoying asked for help that day, everyone could hear clearly, let alone her old enemy, so Li was very unhappy.

Lin Zhao smiled and said, "That's right, investigate this case to the bottom, find out the real culprit, avenge the eldest lady, and avenge the young master!"

Mrs. Li snorted coldly and said: "Don't waste your time, it is an indisputable fact that that bitch murdered her own brother. Are you the one who talks nonsense? Don't forget, you...your whole family belongs to the Meng family. Servant... you have to be careful, don't worry about it, otherwise you will suffer in the future..." He seemed to say to Xiaotao who was accompanying him: "My husband is gone, so naturally I don't need a book boy. I heard that the front yard seems to be missing A handyman delivering dung buckets..."

Nima!Lin Zhao sneered and said, "Threatening me? Hehe, I forgot to tell the young lady that the magistrate Wang has appointed me to participate in the investigation. Before the case comes to light, young lady, you can't control me, hehe!"

"You..." Mrs. Li didn't expect Lin Zhao to be so capable. She climbed up to the magistrate, and couldn't help being anxious and angry!
Lin Zhao continued: "I have already obtained some evidence, and some people will be domineering for a few days, so young madam can do it for herself!" After speaking, she walked away and went straight to the study...

Xiao Tao couldn't help panicking: "Ma'am, could it be that he really found something?"

Mrs. Li was also a little frightened and worried, breathing quickly and said, "Measuring him as a little book boy can't find anything? But be careful, inform Chen Xuan of the news and let him find a way..."

Lin Zhao trotted all the way to Meng Ruogu's residence, which has now been locked down and guarded by Jiangning County guards.The guards were greeted by the county magistrate Shao Wenquan in advance, and Lin Zhao was naturally unimpeded.

Entering the house, the blood is still there, shocking.Thinking of Meng Ruogu's tragic death, Lin Zhao felt very bad. For now, the only plan is to find out the truth and bring the murderer to justice to avenge him.

Lin Zhao first searched the area, but did not find any useful clues. It seems that the guards were not lying.Lin Zhao went into the study, flipping through Meng Ruogu's manuscripts, hoping to find clues...

Hard work pays off, Lin Zhao found a letter from a Xuanzhou scholar to Meng Ruogu, saying that after the Shangyuan Festival, he would invite some close friends to study in Jiangning.In the surviving memory, Meng Ruogu seemed to have been out for more than ten days, accompanied a few scholars and friends to watch the scenery, recite poems and compose poems, and there was a collection of poems written by several people on the table for Meng Ruogu to write a preface to!
Later, Meng Ruogu stayed at the state school to write articles for Wang Anshi.Thinking about it carefully in the past two months, Meng Ruogu only returned home once, and it was the day when he was framed to time travel!

Could it be that night?Lin Zhao shook his head, he was very impressed at the beginning of time travel.He clearly remembered that when he came that morning, Meng Ruogu lit the lamp to read at night, stayed up all night, and was still lying on the desk.

That being the case, where did Li's pregnancy come from?
