Wang Yun lived in the government office not far away.
After Fengxiang's case was rushed to the Ministry of Criminal Justice, Wang Yun guessed that the emperor would call him to Beijing.
After doing the math, the documents should be delivered to him soon.
Su Huai was acquitted, and he would naturally return to Fengxiang Officer to resume his post. He didn't know where he would be sent again, no matter where he went, it was a new beginning.
Wang Yun put down the file in his hand.
"My lord," the steward took off his boots for Wang Yun, "Others will take advantage of the opportunity of being transferred to travel around the mountains and rivers, but you always rush to the official office without stopping. This is all right. Madam and Miss have not yet arrived in Fengxiang. We have to go back the same way.¡±
Wang Yun smiled slightly and let the steward continue nagging.
"My lordsomething happened." The guard knocked on the door.
The steward was taken aback and accidentally pinched the old wound on Wang Yun's foot.
Wang Yun frowned in pain, and the steward quickly apologized: "My lord, I'm sorry, it's all because of my carelessness."
The back of Wang Yun's instep is full of uneven scars, and all ten toes are twisted weirdly. At first glance, it is really scary. These are all tortured when he was imprisoned in Dogans. Although the wounds have healed now, the touch Sometimes I still feel pain, especially after running around every day, it's like stepping on the edge of a knife.
"It's okay, don't worry about it." Wang Yun comforted the steward very tolerantly.
The guard came in and reported: "Someone entered the inn to assassinate Mr. Song."
Wang Yun was startled: "Have you caught the assassin?" Then he took the socks and put them on, and the steward helped him put on his boots.
The guard said: "If you catch him, you will be sure of your identity. They are beggars in the city. They help in the market on weekdays, and they also go up the mountain to cut firewood for sale. At night, they will stay in Taoist temples outside the city."
Wang Yun couldn't help frowning: "Why would a beggar assassinate Song Chengxuan?"
The guard didn't know too much inside information: "The beggar only said that his brother was killed by Song Chengxuan, and now his brother's body is in the forest not far from the inn."
"Bring your assistant, let's check the corpse first."
Under the light of the torch.
A corpse knelt beside the rock, with its head hanging limply on its chest, and its movements looked very strange.
The boy couldn't suppress his sadness, tears kept falling, and the violent twitching caused the wound on his neck to open again, and the blood soaked the cloth outside.
Wu Zuo has carefully examined the body: "The cause of death was beheading with a sharp knife."
Everyone looked at the guards of the Song family, all of them were wearing sabers without exception.
The boy nodded: "I sewed up my brother's head, I can't let him go like this."
Sun Chong said: "Where was the body first found?"
The young man tried his best to support his frail body: "II will take you there."
The forest seemed very quiet, and the mountain wind was blowing a bone-chilling chill. I didn't know what was hiding in the darkness.
Xu Qing'an walked to his sister and said in a low voice: "There are not many people in the yamen, let's walk slowly, and we can deal with it if something happens."
Song Chengxuan's guards were all murderous, which made people feel uneasy.
"Master Wang Yun is the magistrate, and his elder brother is the eldest son of the Anyi Marquis. Next to him is Zhao Erye from the Guangping Marquis. Unless Song Chengxuan intends to rebel, he will not kill us all here."
Although what my sister said made sense, Xu Qing'an still felt uneasy.
"It's always good for you to walk behind me." Xu Qing'an didn't understand when the girl who was usually locked in the inner house was so courageous, not only able to see the corpse, but also so indifferent.
Xu Qinghuan thought for a moment, then looked around: "I forgot one thing, our lives are indeed in danger, if that person is more cruel, maybe he will kill us all."
Xu Qingan almost pulled out the sword from his waist, but was held down by Xu Qinghuan's arm.
"This kind of thing won't happen today, brother, don't worry."
Xu Qing'an's eyes widened. It won't happen today. His sister's words really tested his strong heart.
There was a layer of leaves on the ground in the woods, and at night, the light from the torches was not as bright as the sun, so it was impossible to find complete footprints, which showed that these people were very cautious in their actions.
It is possible to kill a person and still leave some clues.
Especially those who are being hunted down feel fear and panic in their hearts. Although he knows that the chance of escaping is very slim, heHe didn't want to give up, he thought he was not afraid of death, but when death came, he regretted it so much.
In a protracted hunt, the prey will always fall first.
Finally he couldn't run anymore, and the people behind him chased him up without haste.
He wanted to beg for mercy but it didn't make any sense. All he saw were pairs of cold eyes. He was so familiar with this kind of gaze, so he barely struggled, and he knelt on the ground in obedience to their wishes, and was pressed down head.
When the knife came down, blood gushed out, and a head fell to the ground.
Beheaded for public display.
Finally they buried him in a shallow pit.
After these people left, his younger brother, who was concerned about him, found it here. He found a dagger that his elder brother often used, which was very small, and it was hidden in a crack in the rock not far away. This was a clue he left to his younger brother.
"After a person dies, it will take half an hour for the body to slowly stiffen," Mrs. Chang said, "That is to say, if you want to put him in a kneeling position, the murderer must stay here for about an hour."
Sun Chong frowned: "After killing someone, the murderer will bury the body as soon as possible and escape. Why should he stay here at the risk of death?"
Everyone fell into silence.
"Because I want to serve as an example to others." Xu Qinghuan's voice broke the silence.
To serve as a warning to others.
Wang Yun seemed to understand a little bit.
Without waiting for others to speak, Xu Qinghuan looked at Song Chengxuan: "Master Song has been in the army for many years, so he should know why the military law is stricter than the law, right?"
Song Chengxuan turned his head to meet the girl's clear eyes. At this moment, it seemed that she didn't know him. With an aggressive tone, she wanted to ask the secret hidden in his heart.
At this moment, she completely regarded him as a suspect.
As if I forgot what I said in the woods that day: "It's better to investigate this case together." Those words.
Song Chengxuan narrowed his eyes slightly: "If the military law is lax, it will be difficult to gain prestige, let alone control and command the army."
Xu Qinghuan said: "So the strict military law is to deter other people, so that they will not make the same mistakes again, and the same is true for this corpse. Kneeling to obey the law, beheading the public, not only to kill him, but also to warn other people."
Sun Chong seemed to have thought of something: "Miss means that the person who killed him is his companion."
Xu Qinghuan nodded: "Your Excellency, you can compare this person with the spies we caught before to see if they have similarities."
"What spy?" The young man's voice became sharp when he heard this, "My brother is not a spy, he is nothe just wanted us to live better and sold himself."
A pair of hands rested on the boy's shoulders.
Li Xu said: "If you want to catch the murderer of your brother, you have to tell Lord Wang Yun and that Miss Xu what you know. They helped solve an unsolved case and affirmed the injustice for the deceased. Don't you Don't want to catch the murderer who killed your brother?"
"Think," the young man looked at Song Chengxuan angrily, "my brother has already told me who the murderer is, he is Mr. Song, my brother was deceived by them back then, and when he left, he said that as long as he followed them, he would win future."
"I've always wondered, just relying on Xu San and Mrs. Guangping Hou, how can such dead soldiers and spies be raised, and their age is only about twenty years old, where do these people come from," Xu Qinghuan looked at Xiang Song Chengxuan, "When I was in Fengxiang, I met a kid named Junsheng. On the day Xu San was arrested, Junsheng left Fengxiang with a few beggars. He also said he was going to beg for a living. Coincidentally."
Her gaze collided with his, and under the light of the torch she was radiant: "My lord, I think that as long as I order people to look for Junsheng, and ask a little bit, they will know where they are going and who they want to go to. Generally the same, then we should have caught the murderer by the tail." (Remember this website URL: www.hlnovel.com
