Dafeng's Night Squad

cause of death: a sharp blade pierced through the heart (old injury)

autopsy results: the flesh and internal organs are black-purple. Corpse Gu was used in the flesh and blood to prevent the body from rotting. [ the time of death is more than a year. ]

[ deceased: nameless corpse ]

[ height: five feet and four inches, female, bones and bones are well-proportioned, no fractures, no signs of poisoning, finger bones are well-proportioned, not good at labor ... ]

In the Yamen, Xu Qi ‘an finished reading the autopsy report and handed it over to the coroner. He turned around and went to the front hall next to the autopsy room.

The ten golden gongs were gathered together. Wei Yuan sat at the head of the table, drinking tea with a solemn expression.

Xu Qi ‘an walked behind Wei Yuan in silence, listening to the discussions about the female corpse’s true body, Princess Ping Yang, and the Sangbo case.

The ping Yang County Princess case was considered to be initially closed. I probably can’t interfere in the follow-up investigation ... This involves the murder of a Princess, and it’s not something that a copper Gong like me can participate in.

However, the Sang Bo case was still not solved ... I don’t know if my contribution in the case of Princess Ping Yang can offset my crime of being cut in half ... If it doesn’t work, I’ll kill Emperor yuanjing’s uncle.

Just as he was cursing in his heart, an official stood at the door and said, “”Duke of Wei, my Lords, King Yu has arrived.”

King Yu had come ... The Golden gongs exchanged glances and looked at Wei Yuan.

The green-robed eunuch with white sideburns finished his last sip of tea and looked at the clerk. He said gently, “”King Yu, please go to the autopsy room.”

With that, he put down the cup, sighed, and went to the autopsy room first, followed by the people in the side hall.

When they arrived at the autopsy room, the Golden gongs didn’t go in. Instead, they lined up on both sides of the door, and only Wei Yuan entered.

King Yu had arrived. This sickly man walked over expressionlessly. His face was clearly expressionless, but it seemed to have all the expressions gathered on it.

His footsteps were neither fast nor slow, but it was as if there was an evil ghost chasing after him ...

When he reached the door of the autopsy room, he paused for a few seconds before he stepped over the threshold.

The light in the autopsy room was excellent. The bright sunlight passed through the lattice windows and left even spots of light on the ground.

King Yu saw the skeleton on the wooden bed with a single glance. At that moment, he actually had the urge to escape from this place.

However, his father’s obsession made him walk over slowly.

Wei Yuan was the only one in the autopsy room. He took out a golden hairpin from his sleeve and said softly, ” I found this on her body, and she used it to commit suicide. Take a look and see if you know her.

King Yu’s gaze froze, and so did his expression. He was like a statue that was slowly being weathered.

“It’s hers.” King Yu said bitterly.

The empty room fell into a dead silence. The two middle-aged men did not speak again.

After a long, long time, King Yu lowered his head to look at the golden hairpin and asked in a hoarse voice, “”Who did this?”

“Only three people were found. Count Ping Yuan, Minister of War Zhang Feng, and the Ministry of Revenue are all in the middle of investigation.” Wei Yuan stared at him, his deep eyes containing the vicissitudes of life washed by time.

“The three people’s initial plan should have been to trick her out of the capital, but their young master was lustful and never thought of letting the junzhu, who had left the sight of Prince Yu’s residence, return alive.”

“She was insulted?” King Yu’s voice was terrifyingly calm.

“She committed suicide by swallowing a hairpin,” Wei Yuan shook his head and looked deeply into King Yu’s eyes.”But we still can’t be sure that she’s a Princess. A golden hairpin doesn’t mean anything.

“I think you know what to do.”

King Yu left. Other than the one glance he had when he stepped into the autopsy room, he had not seen the corpse again, not even once. It was as if it was something terrifying.

Xu Qi ‘an didn’t know if it was an illusion, but looking at his back, Xu Qi’ an felt that King Yu had aged a lot in an instant. His back actually had the desolation of an old man.

On this day, King Yu entered the palace with a blood letter.

.....

After King Yu left, Xu Qi ‘an, who had originally planned to silently wait for the case of Princess Ping Yang to end so that he could obtain important clues about the Sang Bo case, received an invitation from the eldest Princess.

The messenger was a delicate-looking officer, a small eunuch.

“Why is the eldest Princess looking for me?” Xu Qi ‘an asked.

“I don’t know,” The young eunuch was a man of few words, but he was well-versed in the ways of survival in the palace. His mouth was tightly shut.

..... Xu Qi ‘an guessed that it was most likely because of Princess Ping Yang.

They rushed to the Imperial City and entered the palace. The young eunuch led them straight to Princess huaiqing’s elegant garden.

In the pavilion in the garden, Xu Qi ‘an saw Princess huaiqing and the second Princess, the Crown Prince, who was Princess huaiqing’s brother, the fourth prince.

“Your humble servant greets your Majesties.” Xu Qi ‘an stood outside the pavilion and cupped his fists.

Princess Lin an waved her hand and called out happily,”Dog slave, come in and sit.”

When did dog slave become my pet name? Xu Qi ‘an was a little confused. He looked at the Crown Prince and Princess huaiqing. The latter’s voice was cold.”There’s no need to be so formal, please give Lord Xu a seat.”

The palace maid moved a chair over and set it opposite the princes.

The eldest Princess huaiqing looked at him and said, “”Today, King Yu brought a blood letter into the palace. After Imperial father summoned him, he did not come out. I remember that you were investigating the case of Princess Ping Yang. Did you make any progress?”

His Highness the Crown Prince, the fourth prince, and Princess Lin an were all staring at him, waiting for his answer.

Princess Ping Yang was their cousin. They had grown up together and had a close relationship.

Princess Ping Yang ... Xu Qi ‘an took a deep breath and began to explain.

It was a simple and plain love story, but it was destined to be extraordinary, because the heroine of the story was a noble Princess. She should never have fallen in love with a monk.

But the taste of love was so wonderful that she was willing to abandon everything, wealth, and her identity as a member of the imperial family to leave the capital with him and spend the rest of her life together.

However, not all love had an ending. In novels, talented people and beautiful women would always be able to get married because that was a novel. There were too many unpredictable changes in reality.

...

In the end, they became the victims of a political struggle. Perhaps before the arrival of misfortune, this pair of little lovers were still fantasizing about the future of their relationship.

Xu Qi ‘an told the story calmly. She remembered a song she had heard many years ago:

Mandarin Ducks and Butterflies fly together, the spring scenery in the garden is intoxicating.

I’ll quietly ask the Holy monk if I’m beautiful. Is I beautiful? ”

“What royal power, what wealth, what law and order are you afraid of.”

“I only wish to be with the person I love forever.”

He had never seen Princess Ping Yang before, but he seemed to see a bright and beautiful girl with a pair of smiling eyes standing beside the handsome monk.

She stuck a wildflower in her hair and asked him,”is the flower prettier or am I prettier?”

Xu Qi ‘an let out a breath of air and stood up.”That’s what happened. I still have other matters to attend to, so I’ll take my leave first.”

Princess huaiqing nodded silently.

Xu Qi ‘an left quickly. He could vaguely hear the cry of the princess of Lin’ an behind him.

...

It was not until he had left the Imperial City that he broke free from that depressed mood.

......

A horse carriage galloped over and stopped at the bottom of the stargazing tower. Eunuch Liu, whose face was pale and beardless but already had some crow’s feet, jumped off the horse carriage in a panic without waiting for the attendant to bring over the small ladder.

Eunuch Liu rushed into the stargazing tower and raised the Imperial edict in his hand. “His Majesty has ordered the eunuch to enter the palace immediately.”

He shouted three times.

In order to prevent the Directorate of Celestials from colluding with officials, the Imperial court has ordered that the aura-gazing technique is ineffective on officials of the fourth rank and above.

But there was one exception, the supervisor!

“Don’t make a fuss, teacher has already gone to the palace.”

Eunuch Liu turned his head abruptly to find a white-robed yang qianhuan standing with her hands behind her back and her back facing him.

“Yang qianhuan, when did you return to the capital?” Eunuch Liu was shocked.

“When the capital needed me, I came back.” Yang qianhuan’s tone was steady.

“You’re so mysterious all day long, can’t you speak properly?” Eunuch Liu spat at him unhappily before turning around and leaving.

“....”Yang qianhuan.

....

The night watchman was at the Yamen.

In the quiet room, Xu Qi ‘an, who was sitting cross-legged and meditating, suddenly felt his heart palpitate. It was the kind of palpitations that one would feel when they heard QQ beeping after staying up all night.

This was the ” message prompt ” unique to the fragments of the nether world Book. He stopped his visualization and took out the small Jade Mirror.

[ No. 9: we’ve found No. 6. He’s currently at the Yamen on night duty. You can rest assured. ]

Xu Qi ‘an frowned when he saw this. He thought to himself,’aren’t you saying plainly:Are there any spies from the heaven and earth Association in the Yamen?

[ 5: found number six? [ however, it’s more dangerous for the Yamen to be the night watchman on the sixth. I heard that the night watchmen in Da Feng are all evil and ruthless. ]

[ No. 1: you can’t always believe in rumors. Taoist priest, did you find No. 6? ]

[ number nine: as expected, number six has indeed been sealed. The person who sealed him is a strong man in a black robe. He exudes a dangerous aura, so I didn’t dare to act rashly. I then revealed this matter to the Yamen on duty. ]

Taoist priest’s explanation is good. This way, my source of information can be explained. If number one holds a high position in the Imperial court, he must have already known about Princess Ping Yang’s case.

‘If I were to go against my logic, I, the gong that discovered henghui’s tracks, would become very suspicious ...’ What the Taoist priest said was like patching me up.

If anyone asks, I can say that I’m a warm-hearted citizen reporting it.

I’ll be able to draw a clear line between number three and me.

[ No. 1: I’ve received news that the Sang Bo case is linked to the disappearance of Princess Ping Yang a year ago. Soon, there will be a big storm in the capital. ]

[ 4: what’s the situation? ]

Number four jumped out to enjoy the show.

No. 1 briefly explained the princess Ping Yang case to the members of the Tiandi society. With just a few words, he outlined a political and political situation in everyone’s hearts without any bloodshed.

It gave everyone enough room for imagination.

[ 5: this, this ... ] Are you guys black-hearted? [ he’s actually so despicable. ]

[ 4: who found out about this case? ]

Seeing this question, Xu Qi ‘an raised his eyebrows and entered the information.[ I heard that it’s a Gong from the Yamen. His name is Xu Qi ‘an. ]

[ 4: Xu Qi ‘an? [ why does it sound so familiar? ]

[ 3: when No. 1 was investigating cloud deer Institute’s pure energy soaring to the heavens, he had mentioned this person. [ I’ve been paying attention to him, observing him, and I’ve come to a terrifying conclusion. ]

[ a scary conclusion? ] Several members of the Heaven and Earth Society asked similar questions one after another.

[ 3: this person is extremely intelligent and has unparalleled talent. He is definitely not an ordinary person. ]

To be able to receive such praise from number three, this copper Gong named Xu Qi ‘an must be an extremely powerful character ... Everyone silently remembered this name.

Daoist priest Golden Lotus was a little embarrassed and did not say anything.

At this time, number two appeared and said, [ number three, I found Zhou chixiong’s traces. ]

Number one, who didn’t respond to Xu Qi ‘an’s self-praise, immediately jumped out. [ where is he? ]

[ two: one of my brothers saw him in a village. That village happens to be the one I’m going to exterminate soon. Wait for me. After I exterminate the village, I’ll send him back to the capital. ]

DID number two really find Zhou chixiong? Yunzhou was so big, and bandits were a disaster. Even if she had some power in Yunzhou, she couldn’t have found Zhou chixiong so quickly ... ‘It’s either a coincidence or I’ve underestimated number two’s ability ...’ Xu Qi ‘an clapped his hands excitedly.

After capturing Zhou chixiong, they would be able to find out who the mastermind behind the collusion with the demon race was.

[ 3: thank you. ]

[ 2: it’s a small matter. My friends from all over the world are willing to give me face. [ finding someone is nothing to me. ]

‘Your reputation is not ordinary ...’ Everyone thought.

After ending the internal exchange of the Heaven and Earth Society, Xu Qian felt much more at ease. Zhou chixiong was his other insurance. If he caught this person, he would not panic even if he could not be exonerated from the ping Yang Princess case.

Now, all they had to do was wait for the case to be solved.

There was still another chapter at night.
