Forensic lady champion husband

Chapter 7

As soon as she heard the word Wang Er, Ming Shu understood. She had already realized that this person's death was not simple, but she never thought that the case would be so big that it would all be stabbed to Dali Temple.Generally speaking, any major homicide case should be accepted by the local state government officials. After the criminal and prison department sends someone to conduct an autopsy, the prison department will push it, and the judicial department will make a judgment. In the end, it was handed over to the emperor for a decision, but according to what Yuan Yizhen said, the remains of the deceased were sent to Dali Temple before the case was clarified. The inside story may be far more complicated than imagined.

"How did it become a headless case?" Ming Shu asked.

Yuan Yizhen covered his mouth and said softly: "Wang Er was originally from Shuzhou, and his family learned and started his career. In his generation, he finally produced a seed for reading, but he hanged himself, and his body was thrown into the well, but he couldn't find it. who did it."

"Why did you hang yourself?" Mingshu wanted to hear the details.

Yuan Yizhen pointed to the neck, "It is said that there are strangle marks on the neck, could it be that he was hanged? I just don't understand, who would be so vicious as to throw the corpse into the well, what a hatred."

Suddenly, a pair of hands with long nails moved the shoulders of the two together, and found a gap to sit down. It turned out to be He Hui, the daughter of Dali Temple Minister He Zhongda. The breath of gossip rushed over to join in the fun.

He Hui compared her slender fingers to her lips, and hissed, "The news I heard from my father is only for the two of you."

Both of them listened to each other, and Ming Shu felt a cold sweat in her heart. It turned out that this was how the internal information was leaked.

He Hui said: "Now the people in Dali Temple suspect that it has something to do with the owner of the Didian, and they have already sent people to arrest him for questioning."

Yuan Yi really didn't understand: "Didn't you mean hang yourself? Why is he involved with the owner of the mansion again?"

He Hui said: "The night before the body was found, people who lived near Tianshuijing heard a 'tom', went out and saw a horse-drawn cart, one person was driving, and the other was sitting in the back with his face covered. It was identified that the mansion store was used to transport fodder, the boss and one of the mistresses were very similar to the description of the witnesses, it is very likely that they saw someone dead in the guest room and were worried about getting into trouble, so they moved the body."

Yuan Yizhen sighed and said: "I'm so confused, if I report to the official early, it will be over, why bother to harm other people's bones."

He Hui said: "No matter whose fault it is, Jing Xun is the most pitiful one. He thought he would be reliable for life, but he was short-lived. You said, he has a bright future, and he has just arranged a good marriage, why should he not think about it?"

This is also something Mingshu can't figure out. If it really is suicide, there will be some motives, but Wang Er's motives are too vague. If he has already had thoughts of world-weariness, why bother to go to Beijing and try to agree to the Shen family's marriage contract?
Yuan Yizhen sighed, "People's thoughts are so hard to guess."

"What troubles Miss Yuan?" A soft voice came from behind.

"It's sister Qiulan!" The three of Mingshu turned their heads and saw a woman of seventeen or eighteen, with a graceful figure and neat clothes. She was Mrs. Qu's personal maid, and she entered the mansion together with Chunxiu. She was famously shrewd crisp.

Seeing Qiu Lan, Mingshu's heart skipped a beat, knowing that her mother was looking for her, and if it was the past, she would have been eager to go there, but now Yan Ziqin asked to leave Beijing, Mingshu didn't know how to explain to her old man.

"Sister Qiulan, mother called me?" Mingshu asked tentatively.

Qiu Lan nodded, said goodbye to everyone without talking nonsense, and led the anxious Ming Shu away.

"You don't need to worry, my husband and wife are for your own good anyway." Qiu Lan, who was leading the way, said so, her feet kept moving, her skirt flowing like clouds and flowing water, but she couldn't show her toes.Mrs. Qu Tiao~Teaching people has always had a set of methods, and the girls under her command are all orderly, but the worst result belongs to her own daughter Ming Shu, which can only be regarded as unsatisfactory.

He came to the second gate with drooping eyebrows, only to see a light sedan chair parked in front of the screen wall, the old servant Qu Chang was waiting respectfully by the gate, and Chunxiu brought by Mingshu was also there. , as if she was still unmarried.

"Little lady, let's lift up the sedan chair." As soon as Qu Chang bowed, Chunxiu raised the curtain of the sedan chair, and Mrs. Qu's gloomy face emerged from the sedan chair.

"I...haven't asked Aunt Yuan to resign yet." Mingshu spoke to him from left to right.

Qiu Lan grabbed her wrist, shook her head and said, "Since Madame asked you to come here, I naturally told you."

With no way out, Ming Shu had no choice but to get on the sedan chair, and sat down beside her angry mother, after a long time, Mrs. Qu finally took a breath and frowned, "When did he mention leaving Beijing to you? He is an ignorant young man, are you fooling around with him?"

Right from the start, Ming Shu secretly groaned, he is a young man, and I am also a "girl", okay!
"Three...three days ago?" She became nervous and couldn't count the days.

"Then why didn't you tell the family? Now the government's Zhongzhi is about to come down, and when he is transferred to some poor country, don't cry and regret when you go to suffer the punishment!"

"It's not like a poor mountain..." Ming Shu murmured, thinking that if she could leave her parents, the fact that she and Yan Ziqin were married for more than a month and hadn't consummated the house would not be exposed, and she could continue to lie in the future, when she was older You can't be fooled, and if you give him something he likes to prevaricate, you won't suffer a loss. Besides, apart from Bianliang in Tokyo, there are still many prosperous cities in the Song Dynasty, such as Suzhou, Hangzhou, Yangzhou, Jiankang, and Jifu in the south of the Yangtze River. Luoyang in Luoyang, and even Yinzhou and Quanzhou on the coast are all good places for Wufu and Minfeng.

"Still talking back! Where can it be better than the capital? Can it be better than being around your parents? I'm young and I don't know what's good or bad. I won't tell you. When I get home, I'll let your father teach you a lesson!" After Madam Qu said, she turned her head angrily. , no longer looking at her daughter, obviously extremely angry.

Yuan's Mansion and Qu's Mansion were not far apart, and they arrived in a short time.

Qu Yuan Shikuan sat in the back hall, his face was still the same cloudy look that he had honed in the officialdom for many years, so that his relatives could not guess his thoughts, but she did not expect that Yan Ziqin was there, and Ming Shu trembled Serving tea in a majestic manner, he dared not sit down without his father's permission, and stood at the bottom with Yan Ziqin.

"Sit down." After a long time, he opened his mouth, watched the two children sit down next to the edge of the chair, and then continued: "Yan Langjun and I talked about it, young people have the spirit of young people, and they are determined to forge ahead." It's a good thing, we elders only want you to be safe and sound, if we all rely on us, it may not be a good thing. If he is going, let him go, but when it comes to the place, it's not like being in Beijing, it's a dragon Luo Qianyuan also has to be wary of tigers and leopards, if dad can help, he will naturally help, when the water is far away and the thirst is not quenched, you have to adapt to it, so you can do it yourself."

After finishing speaking, he waved his hand and ordered his daughter and son-in-law to be sent back. Mingshu had mixed feelings in his heart. What his father said was heart-to-heart. It must be difficult for him to leave Bianliang in the future. What path did you choose.

As soon as the curtain was lifted and the front foot stepped over the threshold, Mrs. Qu's dissatisfied voice came from behind. She thought her husband would help her and racked her brains to persuade her to stay, but she "turned his back".

"They have their own way, we will let go sooner or later." Qu Yuanshi's calm voice disappeared behind the curtain, Yan Ziqin and Ming Shu looked at each other, he walked to the carriage thoughtfully and said:
"I'm going to wrong you in the future. I dare not say that I won't let you suffer a little bit, but it's ten percent of the hardship. I'll take seven percent of it. I'll let you swallow the remaining three percent with honey."

Mingshu thought to herself: "It's all suffering, what's the use of honey and sugar, besides, I'm not the kind of little daughter-in-law who is a husband and wife and follows every step. I also have selfish intentions to marry you and leave Beijing with you. Now you In other words, it seems that I have made a great sacrifice in order to fulfill you, and I deserve it, and I deserve it."

The news that the new champions and the second place in the rankings have asked for transfers naturally cannot be stopped. Occasionally, some good people report to Xu Hang. Xun, teach me a few lessons, and vent my anger. Anyway, what kind of official is not a job, and the Qu family can really see their only son-in-law go astray?Since people don't talk much, there must be a reason, and it's not his turn to worry about it like a person outside the officialdom.

Qu Mingshu has a dish that is particularly satisfying. I am ashamed to say that this is the Subang dish "Squirrel Mandarin Fish" that Mingshu learned from her grandmother in modern times. For Mingshu whose cooking level fluctuates around scrambled eggs with tomatoes, The squirrel mandarin fish is the only big dish she can get her hands on. Right now, there is no tomato sauce for seasoning, so she uses sweet and sour, and the index finger of Yan Ziqin, who is addicted to sweetness, is changed. Praising her knife skills, Mingshu did not dare to say that such fast, accurate and ruthless skills were all practiced on dead people.

In a few days, Yan Ziqin's official letter was promulgated, promoting Shuzhou General Judge. The so-called general judge is probably similar to the modern mayor. However, he has the responsibility to supervise the governor of the state capital, and he can directly report to the emperor the achievements and losses of all officials in the jurisdiction.

After Mrs. Qu found out, she was angry and muttered: "Han Qi got the general judgment of Yangzhou. After all, it is the famous capital of Huaizuo. It has been prosperous from the Tang Dynasty to the present. Why did Yan Lang Lord judge Shuzhou? It's a land with seven mountains, one water and two parts. The land is not very rich, and after asking people, I found out that there have been droughts and floods in recent years, and it has not caused people to suffer."

The young emperor entrusted the boundary of Shuzhou to Yan Ziqin obviously because he had high hopes for him. Yan Ziqin knew that he had a heavy responsibility on his shoulders, so he made preparations early, drafted many good policies for governing the people, and asked several famous officials of the court for advice. Of course, Yue Zhang is indispensable. Qu Yuanshi smiled after seeing it, and directly pointed out that his two strategies of returning the land and water control are quite insightful, but when he arrives in any place, he must first open up the joints of the local gentry, otherwise he will be restrained by them everywhere, and Confucius will be reborn It is also impossible to carry out the Dao. I heard that there was a family in Shuzhou, who was the Minister of Jiedu in Guanzhong in Tang Dynasty. Shi Chenliang, the prosperity of power can be seen.

After Yan Ziqin returned home, he thought about this matter carefully, and unknowingly ate most of the candied fruit that Ming Shu had prepared for him, causing her to make fun of him: "You can eat as you please, this is Fushunlou's dessert , there is nowhere to buy it outside of the capital.”

After she finished speaking, she buried her head in sorting out the luggage list. The departure is imminent, and the tasks of taking care of the floods and droughts along the way and daily life are also imminent. Mrs. Qu sent a capable old nanny, Mrs. Chen, to Mingshu, fearing that she would be the head of the household. At a loss.Mingshu originally wanted to beg Qiulan, but Mrs. Qu knew that even though she was talented, she was too high-minded, unlike Chunxiu, who was simple and protective of her master, so she dared not let her follow Mingshu, fearing that her daughter would suffer.

In mid-July, the water in the canal rose, and it was time to set off for work. The Qu couple and Uncle Xu sent the young couple to Bianshuijiaomenzi in the southwest of the city. stopped.

"To send you off for thousands of miles, you have to say goodbye at the end, so please look away." Qu Yuan said.

"Yes, in-laws and mothers, children and grandchildren have their own blessings, and children of the younger generation are benevolent and filial. They will take care of themselves and often send letters back." Xu Hang agreed.

Lan Zhou urged, Yan Ziqin's family was small, and there were not many retinues. There were two male and female boats in total. The pier has become a shadow beyond the Jiangtian line, not to mention the trace of his parents.
