It is said that a family's ugliness should not be publicized, not to mention that an unknown female corpse has appeared in the house. Judging by her dress, it is no accident that she is Wanyun's personal maid - Ling'er.
General Chu's daughter disappeared, and his maid died tragically on a rockery in the mansion. There were various opinions for a while.
Of course, the biggest and generally considered most credible theory is: Chu Wanyun, the daughter of the general’s palace, killed her personal maid and fled in fear of the crime!
After all, she is his only apple, how could Chu Zhonglang allow this kind of news to leak out? Yesterday, he tried every means to stop Shen Yingying, just because he was afraid that she would spread the so-called "truth" everywhere!
It's a pity that the top bodyguards of the general's palace were sent to Zhaoxuefang. Instead of arresting him, they were arrested by Xichang! They were also forcibly labeled as "oppressing the people"!
He, Gu Yangjing, didn't want to say that the guards of the General's Mansion were working as a scheming agent. He clearly meant to say that I, Chu Zhonglang, was a weak official who deceived his superiors and deceived his subordinates, and used power for personal gain!
Which one is unbearable? When His Majesty comes back, I will definitely read a copy of this governor of the two factories! Chu Zhonglang thought viciously in his heart.
At that time, a large number of people had gathered in the General's Mansion. They included both members of the General's Mansion and officials from the Three Laws Department.
The first thing Shen Yingying said when she saw the Minister of Justice was, "Hey, Mr. Minister, are the fruits of the Ministry of Justice ready? When will you come to apologize for accidentally arresting me?"
During the previous gunpowder case of the Ministry of Punishment, Shen Yingying made a bet with the Ministry of Punishment: If the real culprit of the gunpowder case could be found within one day, the Minister of Punishment would lead all the officials of the Ministry of Punishment to Zhaoxuefang to apologize.
At that time, under the pressure of the inspector of the East and West Factory, the Minister of Punishment agreed to the matter. Unfortunately, he wanted to cheat after the matter was completed.
I saw the Minister of Justice's eyes wandering around, and he began to speak stumblingly, "I...I don't know what you are talking about! Today, today, someone reported a murder case in the General's Mansion, and I came to the General's Mansion to investigate. That’s all I understand.”
When Chu Zhonglang heard this, his face became more and more gloomy and terrifying.
Who is spreading the news that there is a murder case in his general's mansion! The cause of death of this female corpse is still unclear, so everyone is rushing to label his favorite daughter as a murderer!
In the Jin Dynasty, opening, solving, and closing cases were the evaluation criteria for officials. Whenever there was a murder case, it was common for the three judicial departments to swarm together.
But in the past three months, a murder occurred in Dajinfan, and the final result was just that the three law divisions gathered together and listened to the mysterious detective Yun Feiyan to figure out the cause and effect!
Today is no exception.
"Yingying, please tell me where the princess of this palace has gone." As Chu Wanyun's future husband, Gu Xingchen looked very worried about this matter.
His beautiful eyebrows gathered together, and his face was a little pale, "It was my wishful thinking that harmed Wanyun. If I hadn't fallen in love with Miss Wanyun at first sight at Bingxin Lake that day, and hadn't asked my father for a marriage, wouldn't it be... that we wouldn't be here today?" This kind of result.”
After saying that, he opened the jade fan to cover his face, seemingly trying to block his tears.
The attendant next to him stepped forward to comfort her very considerately, "Your Highness, don't worry. The imperial concubine has her own destiny, and she will be fine."
Shen Yingying rolled her eyes when she saw Gu Xingchen and his servant singing along.
The place where I was rescued from the lake at that time was Bingxin Lake. Gu Xingchen is setting our story on himself and others. He is really a shameless scumbag!
Cherish life and stay away from scumbags. I am once again convinced that I was right to set boundaries with Gu Xingchen a month ago!
Chu Zhonglang pursed his lips, "Xuantan, please tell me clearly the identity of this female corpse and where my Yun'er has gone... This matter concerns my beloved daughter and the future second princess of the Jin Dynasty, as well as
Please, Detective Yunxuan, be careful what you say!"
The implication is: Don't label his daughter as a murderer! Even if it is true, you can communicate in private instead of in front of so many officials from the True Three Laws Department!
The three judicial departments of Dajin are divided into: the Criminal Department, which is responsible for investigation, the Metropolitan Procuratorate, which is responsible for review, and the Dali Temple, which is responsible for trial.
It stands to reason that a case should involve the full cooperation of the three judicial divisions, and the case should be handled in order. However, because the three-case rate is related to the selection of the future prince, gradually, things that exceed the authority of each judicial division often occur.
Many times, there will be disputes over cases.
Such as today.
The three judicial departments all sent personnel over, obviously intending to immediately gain the first priority in arresting the prisoner after Shen Yingying revealed the whereabouts of Chu Wanyun.
Si Zheng of Dali Temple and Shen Yingying were old acquaintances and had a good relationship with each other, so he said, "Detective Yun Xuan, why don't you tell me your opinion? Our Lord, Mr. Shaoqing, is also very concerned about this case."
The Lord Shaoqing that Dali Temple was talking about was the third prince Gu Nantian. However, Gu Nantian did not come today. After all, according to rumors, the murderer was the concubine of his second prince brother.
Does he want to kill his relatives and arrest his sister-in-law personally? It's probably inappropriate.
Shen Yingying twitched her lips, "Before talking about Miss Wanyun, let's first tell you the identity of this female corpse. Before I came here this morning, I had already calculated that this girl's name is Ling'er, and she is the maid of the second imperial concubine."
"The second imperial concubine is a relative of the emperor and has a noble destiny. I couldn't start from the fate of the second imperial concubine, so I asked someone to find out Ling'er's birth date. However, Ling'er has no father or mother, and Ren Yazi doesn't know when she was born.
"
Chu Zhonglang was overjoyed when he heard this. Since he couldn't find Ling'er's birthday, wouldn't Yun Feiyan's so-called fortune telling be of no use! It's best to let this matter go...
Before she was happy for a long time, she heard Shen Yingying say again, "But as for me, I discovered a very strange thing. That is, Ling'er, her location when she died, her clothes, and the way her face was ruined, all looked like an ancient evil.
Technique."
Evil magic?! Everyone was shocked when they heard this.
"This kind of evil magic is detailed in a forbidden book. What a coincidence. Yesterday, Jia Daxian, my senior brother, found it in the second princess's house."
When Jia Daxian came to her yesterday to hand over this book, Shen Yingying thought to herself: This person is not useless.
When Jia Daxian heard what Shen Yingying said, he immediately took out the book from his sleeve and handed it to Shen Yingying.
Yesterday I found this forbidden book on metaphysics from Chu Wanyun's boudoir. I originally planned to keep it privately and study it. Later, I thought about Shen Yingying's level and knew that this book would definitely be more useful if it was handed over to Shen Yingying.
Shen Yingying took the ancient book from Jia Daxian's hands, quickly turned through a few pages, and finally stopped at a page with a strange human figure painted on it, with a few big words written on it: Borrow a corpse to bring back the soul!
Chu Zhonglang could tell at a glance that the layout of the painting, the weird placement of the corpse, and even the twisted appearance of the head were exactly the same as what he saw in the rockery yesterday!
General Chu, who has been on the battlefield for many years and has never been soft on beheading people, suddenly felt his scalp numb. Why did Yun'er hide such evil books...
"Then what do you mean, Chu Wanyun killed this Ling'er in order to resurrect her body?" The Minister of Punishment looked astonished. Go, this is so terrifying, it scares everyone to find their mother.
Gu Xingchen was still "acting", and he frowned, "Yingying, there may be some misunderstanding. I believe Miss Wanyun is definitely not this kind of person."
General Chu also spoke: "Detective Yun Xuan, I admit that you are indeed very capable, and His Majesty also speaks highly of you, but my beloved daughter is not someone who can be slandered by anyone!"
Yun'er turned into a murder suspect overnight, but now she has to turn into a poisonous woman who studies evil arts?! How can he accept this?
"Is it slander? We can ask Ling'er to tell us the truth."
Let Ling'er tell?! But isn't Ling'er already dead...
"Why is this getting weirder and weirder..." The timid and fearful officials of the Ministry of Punishment hugged each other one after another. Among them, the Minister of Punishment even hid in the crowd, allowing seven or eight officials of the Ministry of Punishment to surround him. Protect him!
Shen Yingying randomly picked up a branch from the ground and threw it into the air. With a cold look on her face, she cast a curse: "Where can the wandering souls remain? The three souls have come, the spirit has come, and the soul of such and such has returned. The sky is clear and the earth is clear." The clear yin is turbid and the yang is clear, open my eyes and ears, the yin and yang are clear, the urgency is like a law, open!"
As a burst of purple light suddenly appeared, the branches suddenly floated in the air, and after a while, they slowly flew towards the northwest.
The branch seemed to be still waiting for someone, but when no one followed it, it flew back.
When some of them were brave enough to follow the direction of the branch, the branch continued to "point the way".
Jia Daxian was stunned to see all this. After a while, he rubbed his eyes. When he opened his eyes again and found that the branches were still floating in the air, he simply slapped himself twice.
"Pop!"
I go, it hurts!
It seems like you are not dreaming!
How did I, a 21st century materialist, travel to this metaphysical world!
Just when Jia Daxian was mourning, Shen Yingying's expression darkened.
What makes the branches float in the air is not Ling'er's dead soul at all, but a floating spell. It is to guide everyone to find Chu Wanyun's whereabouts.
I really wanted to summon the soul just now, but I never thought that I couldn't do it! It's probably because Chu Wanyun has already scattered Ling'er's soul!
After death, a person transforms into a soul, and the three souls and six souls can be gathered together to survive. If the soul is scattered, it will be completely removed from the book of life and death, and will not be able to enter the six paths again for eternity! Those who scatter human souls will damage the great yin virtues and are really evil!
If I don't clear up the injustice for Miss Ling'er today, it will be hard for me to swallow this sigh of relief.
Shen Yingying did not take the initiative to find Chu Wanyun's whereabouts, but inferred the whereabouts of the murderer through Ling'er's death and location.
Zhi Zhi is not looking for the princess at all now, but is looking for the real murderer!
The floating branches headed northwest, passed the courtyard of the General's Mansion, exited the back door of the General's Mansion, bypassed two streets, and finally stopped at a mansion that looked very luxurious.
The plaque on the red door reads: Chu Mansion Villa.
This is the side courtyard of the General's Mansion, and it has been abandoned for a long time.
After touching the plaque twice, the branch fell to the ground.
Just when everyone was wondering whether they should go in to see what was going on, a maid opened the door and walked out.
Seeing so many people waiting outside, she was so frightened that she quickly took a step back. In a panic, she wanted to close the door again. Unfortunately, she was stopped by Shen Yingying.
Shen Yingying pressed against the edge of the door, "Where is your lady?"
"Everyone is late. Miss, she..." the maid said, letting go of her hand, "she has already left the capital." This chapter has been completed!
