The county magistrate smiled and complimented: "Brother Lu is so arrogant. I admire him. By the way, the county magistrate asked me to go to Nanzhou to find a coroner. Even if it costs a lot of money, I will find the best coroner for Brother Lu!"
Lu Lingfeng was about to hold his fists and thank him again.
Lao Qi ran in and reported: "Report to the county magistrate, a few people came outside to look for you, and the leader said that it was the coroner you invited!"
Lu Lingfeng was confused: "When did I invite a coroner?"
Xue Huan smiled and said, "It's Mr. Su and the others here!"
Zhou Hao and Lu Lingfeng went out together.
Sure enough, Su Wuming and the others arrived.
Su Wuming didn't care about greetings when he came, but just said hello to Zhou Hao and pulled Lu Lingfeng to the ice room for an autopsy.
Pei Xijun dressed in men's clothes and bowed deeply to Zhou Hao and said, "Master!"
Zhou Hao nodded and smiled, "It's good to come!"
At this time, the county magistrate and the county magistrate walked out, and they hugged and clasped their fists.
Su Wuming walked in without even looking at them.
Master Fei Ji looked at the two of you and said, "You should look at your dress and the county magistrate? Do you have any good wine in Ju County?"
When the county magistrate saw that the old man was dressed in a shabby manner, he didn't look like a big man, and he spoke quite a bit.
He suddenly became angry and shouted, "Who are you?"
Master Fei Ji said proudly: "I am a disciple of Sima Su, Nanzhou, who is unknown...."
When the county magistrate and the county magistrate heard what was ahead, they were so scared that they wanted to salute, but when they heard the three words behind, they wanted to hit someone.
But since they are Su Sima's disciples, they really dare not offend them.
Master Fei Ji said dissatisfiedly: "You are too ignorant. Why don't you pay homage to Sima Su when you see him?"
It's really not the two of them. Even though they didn't know which one was Su Sima, they were also polite just now, but Su Wuming ignored them.
The magistrate of Lei County said in surprise: "Sima? The one who just entered was the famous Sima Su? Aren't he said he was a coroner?"
Zhou Hao laughed and said, "Sima Su is proficient in autopsy and travels in a low-key manner just for a strange case!"
The county magistrate asked quickly, "Then what kind of friendship does this Sima Su and County Magistrate Lu have?"
Master Fei Ji was impatient: "Go! I can't explain it to you, don't cry for now, here is a better introduction."
He pointed to Xijun who was standing next to Zhou Hao and introduced: "This is Miss Xijun, the daughter of Minister Pei of the Ministry of Personnel."
Pei Xijun was a little helpless. Master Fei Ji was going to snatch her father's tiger skin and eat and drink again.
She dressed in a man's clothing and didn't want people to know their identity.
But when Master Fei Ji said it, she knew how to hold her fists and salute: "I have met the county magistrate, county magistrate!"
"Don't dare! Don't dare!"
The county magistrate and the county magistrate quickly bent down to return the gift. The Minister of Personnel, the chief of the officials was the promotion of their officials.
Not to mention the minister’s daughter, even the servants of the minister’s family must be polite.
The seventh-rank official in front of the Prime Minister. Although the Minister of Personnel is not the prime minister, as long as he goes further and adds the title "Pingzhan for the Secretariat of the Jung-Shunter", he will be the prime minister of the Tang Dynasty.
Master Fei Ji shouted, "I haven't been preparing wine and food yet, Miss Xijun is hungry all the way!"
“Yes, yes!”
-------------------------------------
Good wine and good dishes served.
The magistrate of Lei County and the county magistrate originally wanted to sit down and have a meal together, but they were bothered to be close to Zhou Hao, but Xijun and the others did not dare to be close to him.
Although it was open to the Tang Dynasty, it was not in line with the etiquette that you were close to an unmarried girl.
However, Zhou Hao sent these two guys away with a sentence of "With a female family here, it is not convenient to drink together."
Xijun felt a little embarrassed and said, "Master, wouldn't this be bad?"
Zhou Hao laughed and said, "These two guys hate it very much. They have repeatedly stumbling to Brother Lu. Before you came just now, they urged Brother Lu to make a promise to solve the case for seven days."
Xue Huan: "Yes, they are not good people."
Xijun said in surprise: "They are too much, how can they force Lu Lingfeng like this!"
Zhou Hao shook his head: "In the officialdom, there are many idiot officials like Lei County Magistrate. They can get promoted by just flattery and manage their connections. There are also people like Su Wuming who are capable and can also observe their words and expressions. At the same time, he also has his own principles. A gentleman does something and does not do anything. If a person like this is appreciated by a wise ruler, he will definitely have a prosperous official career, otherwise he may be mediocre all his life."
Pei Xijun said curiously: "Master, who is Lu Lingfeng, and what will his future prospects be?"
Zhou Hao smiled and said, "The future depends on his own efforts, but Lu Lingfeng is so upright. If there is a wise ruler, he might need such a person to overcome all obstacles for him, but most of the time it is not needed. Lu Lingfeng needs to grow up. If he can learn all the tricks of Su Wuming, he might be a lonely minister!"
A lonely minister may never be valued. At critical moments, he can serve as a shield for the emperor and be brave enough to directly advise him to share his worries.
This road is definitely not easy to walk, but to make people like Lu Lingfeng smooth? It’s better to kill him.
This is also the best result. I am afraid that when Princess Taiping is sentenced to death by Li Longji, he will not be able to face the emperor, and the emperor will not trust him.
By then, the best result is his ability to die well.
Zhou Hao shouldn't be here for the rest of his life, so he can't do anything even if he wants to help him.
Xijun wanted to ask something, Master Fei Ji quickly said, "The food is cold, let's move your chopsticks? Talk while eating!"
Xijun: "Master Ji, don't we wait for the righteous brother and the county magistrate Lu?"
Master Fei Ji said speechlessly: "Xijun, do you want to starve Master Ji to death? Su Wuming and Lu Lingfeng are doing things to keep eating and sleeping. God knows when they will come back!"
Zhou Hao: "Let's have a meal first. It will be difficult for them to eat after the corpse tests."
-------------------------------------
Su Wuming was undergoing an autopsy himself, and Lu Lingfeng had found a woman who had reported missing.
The woman's name is Huiniang.
The missing person was not her family, but one of her lovers.
The pawnshop owner Qian Xiaoyi reported the case.
Hui Niang is his outdoor room.
The so-called outdoor room is a mistress who is raised outside.
Many people are curious that in the Tang Dynasty, there was a system of monogamous and multiple concubines, so why did they still have to keep an outdoor room?
In fact, the officials and nobles were able to take concubines in the Tang Dynasty, and the higher the rank, the more concubines were allowed, the fewer the vices were allowed.
There can only be three places below the fifth rank, so if you travel to the Tang Dynasty, you are a civilian, you cannot hold your arms around.
Civilians are prohibited from taking concubines, and now they can still keep the outdoor room. After Li Longji comes to power, they will also be sentenced to imprisonment.
Lu Lingfeng learned about something from Qian Xiaoyi.
He had a very tough wife, and his father-in-law was a well-known butcher.
The butcher is obviously good at dismantling people. After all, there is no meat grinder in this era, and it is not possible for everyone to destroy corpses without realizing it.
According to Qian Xiaoyi's account, his wife definitely has a motive for murder.
However, after seeing his wife, Lu Lingfeng felt that his wife was less suspicious.
This is a straightforward and irritable woman. Even if she kills, she can't do fine work of cutting it into pieces.
And most importantly, his wife was less than forty years old, and she was not born forty years ago, so it was impossible for her to know the details of the dismemberment case.
