Chapter 42: Confidants in the Sea

"I'm not guilty."

Zhou Niangzi bit her lip and said with a sad face: "I came in to see Lang Jun lying on the ground, I didn't do it, I'm a woman, why do I want to kill my husband?" Besides, I don't have the ability to do that. ”

"So how do you explain my problem? How do you see inside this dimly lit room? ”

"I[fo]......"

Zhou Niangzi's body was shaky, she took two steps back, and leaned against the door panel with her back.

"I'm going to think about it, I'm a little messed up."

"Don't worry, you can think slowly, just tell me the answer before we finish the test."

Su Dawei didn't slow down, and nodded at her: "It's all for the investigation of the case, if there is any offense, please forgive me." ”

The woman in front of her was just an ordinary person, so naturally she couldn't have done it.

When Fang just observed the corpse, Su Dawei could see it.

This is not your ordinary flame burning, but more like some kind of Inhuman spell.

But the surrounding environment, without a trace of burning, is a little puzzling.

Although Zhou Niangzi does not have the ability to commit crimes, if she can't answer that question, it at least means that she has concealed the facts of the case, and her motives are suspicious.

"I, I'm up, I'm remembering."

Zhou Niangzi covered her chest, her face was slightly excited: "When I came in, the fire was still bright, and I saw it at first sight, and I saw Lang Jun lying by the fireplace." ”

"Oh?"

Su Dawei frowned.

Qian Bazhi had already walked up, stretched out his hand and touched the furnace: "There is a little warmth, it seems that she is not lying." ”

"Eighth master, please take out all the ashes in the furnace and see what is burning, can you say what you can find."

"Raise your hands in prison, what's the trouble."

Qian Bazhi grinned.

Su Dawei said: "You are now a bad deputy marshal, under me, you are still used as a small soldier, this is Qu Cai." ”

"Qu a fart, Ami, if you are hypocritical with me again, believe it or not, I won't do it tomorrow, and I will retire."

"Okay, I won't say it, I won't say it, just get to work."

Su Dawei couldn't cry or laugh.

Qian Bazhi laughed at this time, took out a folded gray cloth from his arms, and shook it to a foot square.

Spread on the ground, then reached into the furnace and began to pluck the ashes in the furnace.

"Eighth master, be careful, don't get hot."

"It's not enough to warm your hands, it's a hot fart...... I'm the ancestor of playing with hidden weapons, if there's anything in it, I'll definitely know, don't worry. ”

Qian Bazhi muttered in his mouth.

Su Dawei glanced at Zhou Niangzi, hesitated for a moment and said, "Zhou Langjun's corpse ......"

"What are you going to say?"

"I would like to ask if I can have an autopsy be done."

The body is skinned, and it is received by its parents.

Even if it is a Datang with complete criminal investigation and investigation and forensic methods, when it encounters a murder, it is to examine the body surface.

Without the consent of the family, or if the words are spoken, the autopsy must not be taken lightly.

Otherwise, it is an insult to the deceased.

It is difficult for ordinary family members to agree to this request.

Before Su Dawei entered the palace, he also asked for an autopsy at the risk of Li Zhi's anger, which was precisely for this reason.

In many cases, it is difficult to find the real cause of death just by examining the appearance of the deceased.

Like the corpse of Princess Gaoyang before.

Without opening the chest cavity and examining the edema of both lungs, it is not possible to determine whether the death was due to a broken neck or drowning.

When Zhou Niangzi heard Su Dawei's request, the whole person seemed to be stunned on the spot.

She lived for thirty years and had never heard of such a request.

When she came back to her senses, she immediately objected fiercely: "Never! Lang Jun is already like this, how can I poke his corpse again, a hundred years later, how can I have the face to see Lang Jun, by no means! ”

Well, it doesn't seem like a good idea to do an autopsy.

Su Dawei is not easy to force.

I can only nod: "In this case, we can only do a survey based on the existing conditions." ”

The entire on-site investigation, including the physical examination of the corpse, ended in a total of one hour.

The conclusion is not complicated.

There is no trace of outsiders coming to the courtyard of the Cui family.

Everything in the house is normal.

The only thing that wasn't normal, the only thing that was not normal, was the stove, the burning thing.

What exactly the deceased was burning before his death may be a clue.

Qian Bazhi squatted there for a long time and took out the stove, but there was still a harvest.

In the pile of black ash, some fragments of unburned pages were found.

However, it is all black paste, and it has to be taken back to the yamen through some technical means to see if it can be restored.

In addition, it is Cui Lian's corpse.

First of all, it is necessary to make sure that the deceased is the person and not someone else's fake.

The corpse was charred on the outside, but it was still possible to examine the teeth.

Identifying through his teeth, it was Cui Zhuo who was unmistakable.

In addition, as for the method of death, because it is not possible to do an autopsy, if you only look at the body surface, the deceased has the obvious characteristics of being burned to death.

As for why there was no struggle, and there were no traces of fire at the scene, it is another question.

After showing the recorded things to Zhou Niangzi, let her draw a charge on the file, and a record of the case was completed.

"Let's go back to the yamen first, and later there will be people from the Yue Wangfu to help collect the funeral, if there is anything, you can go to the Yamen of Chang'an County to find me, if there is any progress in the case, we will notify you again."

"Yes."

……

Su Dawei did not go back to Chang'an County with Qian Bazhi, but explained to him and went to Dali Temple.

In Dali Temple, he did not look for Pei Lian, the temple secretary, but found Cheng Daozhi, explained today's case to him in detail, and asked him to put the files of the two cases together to see if there were any similar clues.

At present, they are all hated at home.

There is no sign of outsiders entering.

The deaths are all very strange.

One is drowning.

One looks like it was burned to death.

There were no traces of fire and water at the scene.

In Cui Lian's case, we have to determine again whether the house is the first scene, or whether it was burned outside and transported in, and what is burned in the furnace.

These will take time to verify.

As for Princess Gaoyang's case, Nan Jiulang has already gone to Jinghe outside the city to check to see if the plant found in Princess Gaoyang's nose is a duckweed plant in the river.

If this is confirmed, it is necessary to verify the problem at the scene of the crime.

If it's really the first scene in the house.

Su Dawei had to carefully consider the matter of the "witch Gu" mentioned by Li Xianzong.

Of course, these are still later words, first check the preliminary work according to the procedure, and collect as many clues as possible before we can talk about the future.

Here in Dali Temple, he didn't stay long.

After explaining the case, he immediately went out of Dali Temple and transferred to the Ducha Temple on the side.

When he came out, he saw many servants and officials busy going in and out.

Not on official business, but on moving.

Many dossiers were packed, and the whole vehicle was neatly equipped.

These are official documents and case files over the years, as well as many information documents.

are valuable documents.

They must be sorted and put away and transported to Daming Palace by carriage.

Li Zhi has already said that the things here will be moved over next month.

There are not many opportunities to work here.

The yamen of Chang'an County and Wannian County remained unchanged.

There are only three provinces and six ministries to be moved.

The newly built Daming Palace will become the heart of the Tang Empire in the future.

There will be 17 Tang emperors to deal with the government here.

It lasted more than 200 years.

Su Dawei was thinking about something, and a young man ran out of a side hall unexpectedly.

ran in front of Su Dawei, looked at it again and again, and asked tentatively: "Are you Su Dawei, Su Langjun?" ”

Su Dawei looked at the other party.

He looks like he's still a half-old child, around fourteen or fifteen years old.

He is about six feet tall, dressed in a wide Confucian robe, and wears a crown on his head.

The skin on his face is fair, his cheeks are thin, and his eyes are dark and swarthy.

With his hands folded, he was saluting him with a crossed hand.

The fingers are white and slender, like a woman's.

"You are?"

"I'm Wang Zi'an."

"Wang Zi'an?"

Su Dawei frowned and said, "I don't know, are you mistaken?" ”

"Hey, it won't be wrong, you went to our house that day, I saw it, I'm Zi'an, hey, I'm Wang Bo."

The last two words suddenly stopped Su Dawei's steps of wanting to leave.

He turned around in surprise and once again looked seriously at the young man in front of him.

"Are you Wang Bo? Wang Tong's grandson? ”

"It's like a fake."

Wang Bo puffed up his chest and looked serious.

Su Dawei didn't know what to say for a while.

Wang Bo, Wang Bo of the Four Masters of the Early Tang Dynasty.

When I saw him, I knew all the four heroes of the early Tang Dynasty, and completed the task card of "Collecting the Four Heroes of the Early Tang Dynasty".

The earliest Luo Bing King.

Then through Luo Binwang, Yang Jiong and Lu Zhaolin were introduced.

Although these two have not met each other, they have exchanged letters with Su Dawei.

Not to mention the big-mouthed Luo Bing Wang.

Every time he writes a letter, the writing is brilliant, and the arrangement is arranged, which makes Su Dawei feel a little embarrassed.

His reply can only be half in vain.

Su Dawei was at Wang's house, asked about Wang Bo, and even took the initiative to ask Uncle Wang Mao about Wang Bo.

It's just because the memory of later generations is too vivid.

Who can forget that "Fuji King Pavilion Poem".

King Teng's high pavilion is in Jiangzhu, and Pei Yuming Luan sings and dances.

There is also the song "Send Du Shaofu to Shuzhou".

There is a confidant in the sea, and the end of the world is like a neighbor.

Thinking in his heart, Su Dawei couldn't help but read it out in his mouth: "Confidant ...... in the sea"

"Huh? What are you talking about? This sentence is quite spiritual. ”

Wang Bo's young heart is still relatively jumpy.

Hearing this, his eyes lit up.

"That's a good sentence, I'll write it down and use it in my poems in the future."

"Ahem~"

Su Dawei couldn't help coughing loudly.

Embarrassing, embarrassing thief.

It's copied to someone's owner.

"What, what are you looking for me for?"

Su Dawei rubbed the corners of his eyes.

There are really some people who can't associate the beautiful scenery and vigorous young man in front of him with the great poet in his impression.

In particular, know the future of Wang Bo.

At the age of twenty-six, he crossed the sea and drowned.

By the way, Li Bai also drowned.

Are these genius poets jealous of them and prevent them from dying?

"It's King Luo Bing."

Wang Bo seemed to remember what was going on, holding his hands behind his back and puffing up his chest like an adult.

However, his size is really far from Su Dawei.

According to Su Dawei, according to later generations, he is at least 1.98 meters tall.

Wang Bo, one meter and seven tops of the sky.

I had to look up at Su Dawei.

is obviously a half-grown teenager, but he wants to pretend to be a young man.

"King Luo Bin wrote to me, mentioning that you are a good person, and there are many astonishing words, and I saw you today and understood it."

He arched his hand and said, "By the way, I still have something to look for you." ”
