Of course, coroner can't find anything.

Even if I found out, Ma Zhiyuan would not really tell the emperor.

Otherwise, wouldn't you be dealing with yourself?

In the afternoon, the emperor received the autopsy report handed over by someone from Chen Qu.

The conclusion given above is that everyone was burned to death by the fire.

Even though the emperor was very angry, he had no choice.

In the face of the plague, manpower is limited.

Whenever there is a plague in any city, the best solution is to deal with the plague from the source.

For example, directly burn the entire village to completely isolate the possibility of plague spread.

But this means that many people who have hope of surviving are also abandoned in the plague.

"Father, judging from the results given by the coroner, these people should have been killed during their lifetime." Li Ke suddenly said something like this with the autopsy report in his hand.

"Why do you say that?" The emperor looked up and looked at Li Ke with some confusion.

"The father doesn't know that the son-in-law encountered a similar case on the first day he went to the emperor's side."

"The emperor asked the son to check the deceased's throat, and then compared it with two pigs."

"I found that people who were burned to death while alive would have a lot of smoke and dust in their throats."

"And those who are burned after death have their throats clean."

"Father, look at the autopsy report again. It is clearly stated on it. The deceased's throat is clean."

"So my son suspects that they were actually burned after death." Li Ke said.

He also remembers the scene when he first met Zhao Chen.

After all, I was too naughty at that time, so I pressed Zhao Chen down three times the first day.

Now that I think about it, I feel inexplicably happy.

The emperor frowned.

He believed in Li Ke and Zhao Chen even more.

Since Zhao Chen had already verified it, these so-called burned people must have been burned before they died.

"Is there any other explanation in the coroner's report, such as whether there was any trauma in the body?" the emperor spoke with a gloomy face.

The emperor was wondering in the morning whether Ma Zhiyuan and the others deliberately set fire to the village.

Otherwise, why didn’t I hear any plague before?

The emperor even speculated whether there was a secret that Ma Zhiyuan and others had in the village.

That's why they are so desperate.

"No." Li Ke shook his head and whispered: "Father, my son-in-law suspect that they were people who were intentionally killed."

"And, there is no plague at all."

"They are lying."

Nearly a hundred lives!

If Ma Zhiyuan and the others were really lying, they killed nearly a hundred people.

When the emperor thought about it, a burst of anger broke out in his heart.

"Father, although we are suspicious now, we can't find anything. Even this autopsy report cannot show any doubt."

"Otherwise, they will erase all this evidence." Li Ke said to the emperor.

I have to say that Li Ke is much more stable than before.

In the past, when he was by Zhao Chen's side, this kid liked to rush around with a stubborn mind and had almost never thought about it like this.

Li Ke himself also knew that in the past, Zhao Chen was by his side, and Zhao Chen would provide him with any guarantee for whatever he did.

But now, he needs to rely on his own abilities.

The emperor nodded. Even though he wanted to find out the truth about this matter, at this moment, they could only pretend that they didn't know anything.

"Leave the autopsy report here, and wait until boy Chen arrives and let him investigate the matter thoroughly."

"If Ninggu County is as dark as I thought, then I would rather destroy her completely." The emperor waved his hand and said to Li Ke.

...

Ma Zhiyuan is in a good mood.

After returning from Chengnan Village, I still drank two glasses of wine at my own place.

When Chen Qu came, Ma Zhiyuan was listening to the little song, and his fingers kept beating the rhythm.

"Governor Ma." Chen Qu and Ma Zhiyuan bowed and bowed.

Ma Zhiyuan looked over, pointed to the chair beside him, and signaled Chen Qu to sit down.

Chen Qu sat down and wanted to speak to Ma Zhiyuan.

But he saw Ma Zhiyuan wave to him: "List the song first."

Chen Qu swallowed again when he said something to his mouth.

Listening to the little song singed by the actor in front of him, Chen Qu closed his eyes and pretended to sleep.

After a while, the song was finished.

Chen Qu's eyes spread wide and he looked at Ma Zhiyuan.

"What's the matter? Tell me." Ma Zhiyuan said with a smile.

"Governor Ma, the news came from the restaurant just now that the emperor decided to leave Ninggu County tomorrow and go to the next place." Chen Qu and Ma Zhiyuan said.

He came here for this matter.

The emperor's departure from Ninggu County was a great thing for him, Chen Qu.

He didn't have to be as careful as ever as ever before.

At the same time, Chen Qu was also worried whether the next place was ready to welcome the emperor.

If the emperor goes, what will be found?

Then they are all finished.

"Don't worry, the entire Qizhou is ready to welcome the emperor."

"No matter where the emperor goes, what he sees will always be what we hope he sees."

"Don't worry." Ma Zhiyuan seemed to see through Chen Qu's worries, and then explained to him with a smile.

Chen Qu nodded.

Since Ma Zhiyuan is ready.

Then he doesn't have to worry.

Besides, he can only take care of his Ninggu County, and he can't get involved in other places.

"Then the officials will not disturb Governor Ma's interest, say goodbye." Chen Qu stood up, finished speaking with Ma Zhiyuan, and was about to leave.

"Wait a minute." Ma Zhiyuan called Chen Qu.

Chen Qu turned around and looked at Ma Zhiyuan in confusion.

"If the emperor leaves Ninggu County tomorrow, we cannot completely relax."

"I am worried that the emperor will arrange a backup plan in Ninggu County."

"You must keep an eye on the number of people in the Emperor's Guards change. If someone suddenly disappears, be careful."

"Don't be careless." Ma Zhiyuan and Chen Qu explained.

Ma Zhiyuan was also worried that the emperor did not fully trust them.

When I leave, I will leave a secret chess and continue to investigate the situation here.

If they have no precautions at this time, they may be found out.

"Yes, the official remembers it." Chen Qu nodded.

The next morning, the emperor stood up and set out for the next place.

Chen Qu followed Ma Zhiyuan and carefully observed the people around the emperor.

Seeing that he had no fewer familiar faces, Chen Qu was relieved a lot.

"Mr. Chen, do your best. I look forward to seeing you in Chang'an." The emperor suddenly turned around and said to Chen Qu.

Chen Qu was stunned for a moment, and then his face showed a look of joy.

"I will definitely live up to Your Majesty's trust." Chen Qu immediately bowed to the emperor.

If it were normal circumstances, a county magistrate would have been so excited that he would have been at a loss when he heard the emperor's praise.

How could it be like Chen Qu?

But Chen Qu couldn't do it, he couldn't go to Chang'an.

If you go, it means something happens to him.

Ninggu County, this is the place he will stay in this life.

The emperor nodded, and then waved to the crowd of people who saw him off.
