The Four Great Cases of Wu Zetian

Chapter 3

Kong Wande's autopsy found out that Di Renjie was wrong to sell drugs
But he said that after listening to Hong Liang's words, Mr. Di knew that Hu De did not do it, so he had to wait for the inspection tomorrow, and he had nothing to say all night.Get up early the next morning to freshen up, use up the breakfast, and order someone to wait on the corpse.All those servants had already arrived at the door of Kong's house.After a while, Di Gong stepped out of the mansion and appeared on the stage, and sat down in the public case.First ordered Kong Laoer to be brought up, and said: "Although you don't know the circumstances of this case, you can't stay out of it even if you go out from your apartment. And tell the names of these two people, so that the examination can be conducted according to their names." Kong Laoji said "When these two people went to the store last night, the villain also asked him. One said his surname was Xu, and the other said his surname was Qiu. At that time, because he was unloading the luggage in a hurry, he didn't have time to ask his name." Di Gong nodded and used Zhu Bi approved the four characters "a man surnamed Xu" and ordered Wu to do a pre-examination of the corpse.

I saw that Wu Zuo led Zhu Bian to the scene. On the field, he first carried the body on the left, Zhao San and the servants on duty to the middle, and said to Di Gong, "Is this person surnamed Xu? Please bring Kong Wande here." Take a look." Di Gong immediately asked Kong Laoer to go to the field to watch, although the old man was terrified, he had to walk to the field tremblingly.Immediately saw a bloody human head, implicated on the corpse, the facial features have been stained with blood and mud.After reluctantly looking at it, he said: "This fruit is the guest who stayed last night." After listening to the report, Wu took out six or seven reed mats and spread them on the ground. Check it out carefully.I only listened to the report: "A male corpse with a knife wound on the back of the shoulder, two inches and eight inches in diameter, and four inches in width. There was a bruise on the left rib, five inches deep, and five inches in width. Three inches to one cent, six cents to the width, and the depth to the diameter, it is life-saving." After the report was completed, the death cell was filled out and submitted to the case.Duke Di looked at it for a while, and then got off the public seat. He looked at the corpse for a week, and found that it was no different from what was reported.

Fu sat down again, and marked Qiu's surname with a Chinese ink pen.Wu Zuo continued to do the same thing as last time, took the lead, lifted the second body up, and told Kong Laoer to look at it.When Kong Laoer arrived on the field, he lowered his head to look, he couldn't help somersaulting, and fell to the ground in fright, his eyes were straight up, his mouth was full of feed, and he couldn't speak.

When Di Gong saw this up there, he knew there was something wrong, so he hurriedly ordered Hong Liang to help him up, and waited for him to wake up and explain.Above the corpse yard, everyone was silent, looking at Old Kong and waiting for him to wake up, what was going on.At this time, Hong Liang helped him sit on the ground, and hurriedly asked his wife to fetch a cup of sugar tea.Surrounded by many idlers, they wanted to finish the inspection immediately so that they could go back to the city. When they suddenly saw Mr. Kong fell to the ground, they were suspicious when they saw it.

After a while, he managed to regain his breath, and only said: "No, no, it's not good! Wrong, wrong!" Hong Liang hurriedly asked: "Old man, you must be careful, the grandfather is now on the top When you tell me, who is wrong?" The old man said, "This corpse is wrong.

The man surnamed Qiu last night was a young man. He already had a beard. How could he be a guest staying at the hotel?This person is obviously wrong, hurry up and ask the grandfather to avenge him. " Hearing this, Wu Zuotong Hong Liang was so frightened that he became suspicious, and then he went back to Duke Di. Duke Di said: "What's the matter!These two corpses were already here yesterday, why didn't he identify them, and they were replaced suddenly during the inspection at this time, isn't it just nonsense for him to prevaricate! "As he spoke, he brought Kong Laoer to the case, and questioned him angrily. Kong Laoer kowtowed and cried loudly, and said: "The villain himself was kidnapped by Hood, and when he saw two corpses, they moved them at the door. Extremely anxious, he hurriedly went to the city to report the crime, how could he dare to look at the corpse again.Moreover, this person fell under the person surnamed Xu. Seeing that the surname Xu was good, he thought he was also good, but this suspicious case came out unexpectedly.The villain is really innocent, and he always begs for the grace of the uncle. "

When Di Gong saw what he said, he thought to himself: "I came to see the corpse yesterday, but I fell up and down in front of this place. Since he said something wrong, it is reasonable, but this matter is difficult. And bring Hood came to ask." At that time, he greeted Dadijia.When Hood heard that he was passed on, he came forward with Mrs. Qiao with his torture wounds.Di Gongdao: "You dog head, you moved the corpses to frame you. Since you said that these two people were killed by Kong Wande and moved from the town gate yesterday, you must have seen the face of the corpses. What are these two people like? Hurry up and confess." Come!" At this time Hood had heard it and said it was a mistake, and now that Duke Di asked him this, he was afraid that he would find the murderer on himself, so he hurriedly said: "The villain went out from his shop, and he was close to the hurricane. Therefore, it is said that he killed him. As far as the body is indeed a young man, that one already has a beard. Because Kong Wande refused to obey the villain and parked the two of them, he hurried into the city and even got together. As for whether it was wrong, the villain did not know the night before. When we meet, don’t dare to talk nonsense.” At that time, Duke Di beat Hu De a hundred times, saying that he did not report the case clearly and instead involved the people.Immediately, the three guests were sent to inquire, and they all said that the two of them were young men the night before.Di Gongdao: "Since this is the case, the county has understood it." Then he sent it back to Wu for the opening test.I had to follow the law, wash away the blood, and report to the public: "A corpse of an unknown man, with a wound on his left hand, two inches and eight inches in width. A place on the back, three inches in diameter and five inches in width and one inch in width. Help me One knife wound, one inch and three inches in diameter, five inches and six inches in diameter, and two inches and two inches in depth, will be fatal. After death, one knife wound on the chest, two inches and eight inches in width and diameter each." After the report, the torture room was filled with corpses grid.Di Gongdao: "This coffin is placed here. The family members of this person may not be far away. The county will seal it up first and show the confession. After the murderer is caught, the case will be finalized. Kong Wande is released on bail. Before the case is confronted, Hood will be banned first."

After finishing the order, he left Liulidun and went all the way to the city. First, he went to the county temple to burn incense, then returned to the Yamen, was promoted to the public seat, and after the standby line was finished, he retreated to the back hall.On the one hand, he issued an official document, recorded the size and image of the original case's body, and transferred it to Huzhou, asking him to visit his family, and then asked a neighbor to seal the seizure.After all these official affairs were completed, Mrs. Qiao and Ma Rong passed on a message: "This case has already been established in this county, and it must be the work of this surname Qiu. This person must be arrested, so that the case can be solved. You two Immediately go to visit, and once captured, report back quickly." The two took orders to go.Then he called Hong Liang again and said, "The nameless corpse may belong to the local family. You should go to the four townships to investigate. And I'm afraid that the murderer may not be far away and hide in the countryside. When the wind dies down, then I don’t know if I escaped.” After Hong Liang took the order to go, he couldn’t visit him for several days.Di Gong said anxiously: "Since I took office in this county, many suspicious cases have been concluded. This matter is clearly in the foreground. Is it so difficult to solve it? Let's wait for the county to visit and make a decision." After thinking about it, after a while overnight.

Early the next morning, he changed into Weixing's clothes, pretended to be a medicine seller, and left the government office with a lot of herbs.First, I went to the big towns and cities along Guanlu, Nanxiang, and walked for half a day, but no one asked questions.I thought to myself: "Let me find a wide shop and put this medicinal herb to see if anyone comes." Thinking about it, I came to a market town in front of me. .I saw a memorial arch in the northeast corner with the words "Huanghua Town" written on it.Walking into the archway, there is a big high wall opposite the door, and a gate tower appears in the middle. There is a square sign in front of the door with the word "Dai Dang" written on it.Di Gongdao: "It turned out to be a pawn. I think this place is very wide. I opened the medicine bag to see if someone came to treat it." After thinking about it, he stood against the high wall, took out the herbs, and spread the cloth bag on the ground first. Then put all the medicines on top, stood still, and sang loudly: "Go south and north, rest and rest, only know joy but not sorrow. There is no magic in the world, and diseases are not free when they come. My surname is Ren, and my name is Xia Jie. , a native of Taiyuan, Shanxi Province, has picked up strange books since childhood, and has been pursuing medical principles. Although he is not the reincarnation of Hua Tuo, he also has the legacy of Bian Que. Regardless of men and women, prescriptions, internal and external subjects, and difficult and miscellaneous diseases, as long as they are in front of the following, they can be seen. As you know, the right medicine is prescribed. The mild ones will be effective in person, and the severe ones will be cured within three days. Today, a group of visiting friends is here to save the world and become famous. Anyone who has a sickness, come to ask for advice." After shouting for a while, they were already embraced A group of idlers formed a circle.Di Gong took a closer look, and found that they were all rural households, talking and discussing there.There was a middle-aged woman, who bent her waist and squeezed into the crowd, looked at Mr. Di after finishing speaking, stepped forward and asked, "Sir, if you say so, all old diseases must be cured." Di Gong said: "Of course If you don't have such means, how can you run around and speak such big words? What's wrong with you, you can tell me clearly and heal you." The woman said: "Mr. Inside, I don’t know if Mr. can be cured?”

Di Gongdao. "Why can't you? You have a heart disease, and I have medicine for your heart. Turn your face around and let me take a closer look." The woman turned her face to the outside as she spoke.Because he is a woman and he is an official after all, for the sake of investigating the case, he looked awkward among the crowd, so he immediately took a look and said, "I know about your illness. I see your face." Dry yellow, blue veins exposed, this is a sign of liver deficiency. In the past, I suffered from depression, which caused liver qi to be aroused for a long time, diet is not balanced, and heartache often occurs. Do you have heartache?" Seeing him mention the cause of the disease, the woman hurriedly said: "Sir, you are a god. I have been sick for three or four years, and no one has ever seen the cause. Since you know, do you know if there is a cure?"

Seeing that she already believed her, Di Gong wanted to find out about it.I don't know what the woman said, let's see the breakdown in the next chapter.
