Distressed wife

Chapter 418 A Major Turning Point (5)
Since she is Lady Lu's younger sister, the ability to perform an autopsy here is not small. On the sixth day after Mu Ziyan entered Jingzhao Yin's office, a murder case occurred in the capital. Now is the time for Mu Ziyan to show her talents. It's time to make her famous.

Therefore, Mu Ziyan followed Zhang Zong to the murder scene.

And this is a big case, and it involves a lot of things. Mu Ziyan remembered that in his previous life, Zhong Xuan intervened to solve this case, and it was even more sensational, and Zhong Xuan also won the reputation of being a godsend.

In this life, Mu Ziyan took this title first, but now Miss Mu was sent to the imperial mausoleum by the queen mother because of the death of the fifth prince, so if Zhang Zong failed to crack the case, Zhong Xuan would intervene again , then Zhong Xuan will easily take down Mu Ziyan's previous reputation of divine judgment, and then Zhong Xuan will start a series of actions to establish his reputation until Mu Ziyan comes out of the imperial mausoleum three years later. The Zhong Xuan at that time is no longer what it used to be. Like the previous life, she has become a model for women, a goddess descending to earth.

Mu Ziyan thought of Zhong Xuan in her previous life. When she came out of her own temple, Zhong Xuan was already well-known, but at that time, she was notorious. There is such a big difference, but in this life, she will definitely let her Zhong Xuan had a good taste.

Zhang Zong stepped into the scene and looked at the female corpses lying here and there, all naked and miserable, he frowned, turned to look at Mu Ziyan, "It's up to you."

Mu Ziyan slightly raised her eyebrows, "My lord, it's your lord's responsibility to settle the case, and the maids just do the autopsy."

"The post-mortem is up to your eldest sister, you must follow the judge to decide the case." Zhang Zong retorted logically.

Mu Ziyan said in a low voice, "Yes."

Zhang Zong nodded in satisfaction, then stepped out of the room to search for beneficial clues.

Mu Ziyan thought carefully about the legends about this case in her previous life, but they were not very detailed. After all, 1000 years had passed, and she had never participated in it, so it was just hearsay. It will also be described as miraculous, which does not match the facts.

After careful inspection, Mrs. Lu raised her eyes to look at Mu Ziyan, "What do you think?"

"Sister Lu, look, have you seen this person before?" Mu Ziyan carefully looked at these corpses, and then pointed to a woman lying in the corner. The appearance is good.

"It's a little familiar." Mrs. Lu sized her up carefully, and then said, "By the way, I remember seeing this girl in Muhou's Mansion."

"Muhou's Mansion?" Mu Ziyan narrowed her eyes slightly, thinking carefully according to her memory, a faint light flashed in her eyes, "This is the girl in front of the old lady of Pingxi County."

"Old lady of Pingxi County?" Madam Lu looked at Mu Ziyan, "There are a total of eight female corpses here, all of whom were tortured to death, and this person's methods are extremely cruel, but he knows how to measure, so he won't kill people immediately. It was slowly tortured to death."

"Anyone who has such a hobby must be a high-ranking official in the capital." Mu Ziyan nodded in response, leaving aside the memories of her previous life, she wanted to use her own methods to detect it.

"There are a lot of nobles in the capital, so we can't check them one by one." Mrs. Lu continued.

"That's not the case." Mu Ziyan looked at her, "Since this girl is the girl in front of the old lady of Pingxi County, I have to ask."

"Are you going?" Mrs. Lu looked at Mu Ziyan and asked.

"En." Mu Ziyan nodded in response, "Eldest sister, don't worry, I have my own measure."

"Okay." Mrs. Lu nodded in response, and the two left the room immediately.

Zhang Zong walked around outside but did not find any useful clues. At this moment, his brows were furrowed, and when he saw Mu Ziyan coming out, he immediately stepped forward, "How?"

"There is a girl who is the maidservant of the old lady of Pingxi County." Mu Ziyan looked at Zhang Zong and said.

"So, I'm going to ask." Zhang Zong saw Mu Ziyan's purpose, so he nodded in response, and immediately went to the house bought by the old lady of Pingxi County in a sedan chair.

Mu Ziyan got off the sedan chair, raised her eyes to look at the house, with an imperceptible sneer on the corner of her mouth, and followed Zhang Zong inside.

After walking to the main hall, after a while, I saw the old lady of Pingxi County come out, but after two months, the old lady of Pingxi County's complexion was not the same as before, her face was ashen, and her spirit was not good.

She raised her eyes and glanced at Zhang Zong, and when she glanced past Mu Ziyan, she just glanced over lightly, and then looked at Zhang Zong, "Why is Master Zhang here?"

"Eight female corpses were found in a house in the west of the city. After identification, one of the female corpses was the maid in front of the old lady." Zhang Zong looked at the old lady in Pingxi County and said.

"Oh?" When the old lady of Pingxi County heard this, her heart sank, and she raised her eyes to look at Zhang Zong, "This... There is no girl lost in my house."

"The official has brought the corpse, I hope the old lady will confirm it." After Zhang Zong said, the yamen servant brought it in.

The old lady frowned, her heart was already upset, she didn't expect that Zhang Zong would carry him in like this, it was really a bit unlucky, her complexion sank, she turned her eyes and gave the old mother a look.

The old mama responded, and immediately stepped forward. When she saw the dead body, her eyes flashed with surprise, and then stood aside respectfully, "Madam, this girl is indeed from the family."

"Oh?" The old lady's eyes were condensed, and she looked at the old nanny coldly, apparently not expecting the old nanny to admit it.

"It's just that you thought her hands and feet were unclean, so you kicked her out early in the morning." The old mother said calmly.

"I do remember." The old lady of Pingxi County looked better and nodded slowly.

Mu Ziyan saw that the old lady of Pingxi County seemed to be dodging on purpose, she twitched her mouth, turned her eyes to look around, and said, "Old lady, your house is very dark."

"Where did you come from without manners?" the old lady of Pingxi County snapped.

Mu Ziyan lowered her head and replied, "The name of the civilian girl is Lu Erniang, she is Miss Lu's younger sister."

"Even so, why are you talking nonsense here?" The old lady of Pingxi County lowered her eyes and said in a low voice.

"The folk girl dare not." Mu Ziyan quickly responded, "The folk girl is just telling the truth."

Zhang Zong turned his eyes and glanced at Mu Ziyan, "Stop talking nonsense."

"Yes, my lord." Mu Ziyan followed suit and stopped talking.

But listening to the panting sound of the old lady of Pingxi County, one could tell the pain that stabbed her. It seemed that she had suffered a lot these days.

Mu Zi hooked the corner of her mouthpiece, and Zhang Zong left the house with her.

"Why did she deny it?" Zhang Zong asked suspiciously.

"My lord doesn't know, this house is a haunted house." Mu Ziyan approached and whispered.

"Haha." Zhang Zong was taken aback when he heard it, then smiled, and turned to look at Mu Ziyan, "Could it be your masterpiece?"

"But that girl's death doesn't concern me, and I think someone took advantage of it." Mu Ziyan continued, "Master, why don't you go back to the government office first?"

"Let's go back." Zhang Zong nodded in response, and then sat in the sedan chair again, and the group returned to Jingzhao Yin's mansion.

After Zhang Zong left, the old lady of Pingxi County was trembling with anger, she turned to look at the old mother, "How could that girl?"

When she saw the tragic death just now, she was a little puzzled for a while.

The old mother said in a low voice, "Madam, it seems that this house is really unlivable."

"Yes, yes, hurry up and find another house, and you must find out clearly this time." The old lady quickly replied, people have been in a state of panic for the past two months, but she has been tossed about for two months, so how can she think about it now? to think about other things.

"Old servant, let's go now." The old mama replied, and then retreated.

Zhu Yue limped in, and when he saw the haggard look of the old lady in Pingxi County, he whispered, "Grandma, why don't you go back to Pingxi?"

The old lady of Pingxi County said, "Now is not the time. I heard that the master of the Miracle Doctor Sect has superb medical skills and has the ability to bring the dead back to life. He has a close relationship with the master of Lin'an County. I want to find a chance to meet Princess Yuehua, so I can invite him , there is hope for your legs and appearance."

Zhu Yue has given up hope now, but seeing the old lady of Pingxi County say so, hope is ignited again in his heart.

"Grandmother, I'm afraid I can't live in this house anymore." Zhu Yue was terrified when he remembered what happened last night.

"I've ordered someone to find a new house." The old lady of Pingxi County said.

"Grandmother, granddaughter remembers that the third lady of Namu's family seems to be recuperating in the house facing the street. Why don't you move to her place first?" Zhu Yue looked at the old lady of Pingxi County and asked.

"Her?" The old lady of Pingxi County was silent for a moment, "She is alone now, but it is fine, I will go and see later."

"En." Zhu Yue nodded in response.

When the old mother came back, she said that there was no vacant house in this season, so it was hard to find, and she had to wait another month.

When Zhu Yue heard this, he became more and more anxious. He said that he would move out, so he begged the old lady of Pingxi County to go to Mu Zijing's place.

Mu Zijing is living very comfortably these days, not to mention that she doesn't need to be looked down upon by others, but now she is guarding the dowry left by the Cui family, and she also pays more attention to it. She went to the government to have it notarized, so she was relieved.

As for Mu Ziyan being sent to the Imperial Mausoleum to guard the spirit, she applauded again and again when she heard about it, and almost set off firecrackers to celebrate. When a girl outside reported that it was the old lady of Pingxi County who had come, Mu Ziyan's eyes frowned slightly, unavoidably. I feel a little puzzled.

"What is she here for?" Mu Zijing didn't like the old lady of Pingxi County. She knew that this aunt and the old lady were the same way, they were both cannibals, so it was better not to provoke them.

"Today, a homicide happened in the west of the city. I heard that there was a corpse inside which was the girl in front of the old lady of Pingxi County, and the house that the old lady of Pingxi County bought was said to be a haunted house. She came here today, probably [-]% I want to borrow it." Shuang'er analyzed in a low voice.

"If that's the case, then I won't be able to see each other anymore. I don't want to make myself unhappy." Mu Zijing managed to live a few days of purity, and she didn't want others to disturb her purity.

She looked at Shuang'er, "You said that I'm not feeling well, I need to rest, and it's not suitable for seeing guests."

"Yes." Shuang'er replied, stepped out of the room.

The old lady of Pingxi County was sitting in the hall, and she didn't see Mu Zijing coming, but she only let a girl come to pass on the message, she was immediately angry, she thought that all the girls in Mu's family were white-eyed and black-hearted.
