The Delicate Lady Coroner - Chapter 200
Bo Ruo hurriedly arrived at Wu Zhaohou Mansion.
Father Fu came out to greet him, “Youyou, Lord Hou has not yet returned to the palace after entering the palace, are you in a hurry?”
Bo Ruoyou looked anxious, and she nodded, “If Lord Hou is not here, where is the son now? The father-in-law may find the son. I have something to ask the son.”
Duke Fu never expected that the person Bo Ruoyou was anxious to find was Huo Qinghong. He thought about it for a while, “Either the old man is at the Taichang Temple Yamen or at the Guogong Mansion. Don’t worry, I’ll find someone to ask. “
Bo Ruo faintly nodded, and Lord Fu went to order the servants of the Hou Mansion. Fortunately, the guards were familiar with Huo Qinghong’s whereabouts and acted smoothly. After only half an hour, Huo Qinghong appeared in the Hou Mansion with a look of doubt.
“Youyou, are you looking for me?” Huo Qinghong entered the hall door, took off his cloak, and hurriedly took the hot tea from Father Fu to warm his hands.
Bo Ruo said quietly, “Before the Buddha’s birthday in Xiangguo Temple, the elder son used to make a dojo to pray for rain in the south of the city, right?”
Huo Qinghong took a sip of hot tea, but Bo Ruoyou asked about this, “Yes.”
“I remember the elder son mentioned that the Taoist temple was the presence of Taichang Temple and united the lord’s families. The elder son might say, who were there on that day?”
Huo Qinghong was a little inexplicable, but Bo Ruoyou looked serious, and he was also very cooperative, “That day…there were the eldest son of the Changning Hou family, the second master of the Zhongqin family, the third son of the Yongning Hou family, and the Zhongyong family. , Uncle Zhongyi——”
“Is there still Liu Yan, the third son of the Liu family?”
Huo Qinghong’s eyes lit up, “How do you know? There is indeed him!”
It was not Liu Yan that Bo Ruoyou wanted to ask, “I was doing things for my parents in Xiangguo Temple a few days ago, and I met Gongzi Liu. He said that you were in Chengnan Daochang and mentioned that I solved the case in Yamen. The eldest son can remember What did you say that day?”
Huo Qinghong’s complexion changed slightly. The tea cup in his hand was a little hot. He quickly put the tea cup down and sat down a bit more straight. , I… I seem to have mentioned the old case of Guilan’s family, maybe you will also solve it.”
Huo Qinghong’s face was slightly pale, and Bo Ruoyou asked him yesterday, but he only remembers that Bo Ruoyou asked the case in front of him and Ming Guilan, and completely forgot about the dojo, “Those clan relatives We know that you and your eldest brother are married, and they both came up to inquire, and heard that you were helping in the yamen. There were many doubts in your words. I heard that it was not good, so I just said a few more words, plus you asked Guilan that day. The old case, I want to say that you solve the case like a god, maybe even those who have returned to the river can catch…”
The more he talked, the more guilty he was, “Is this a bad thing?”
Bo Ruoyou couldn’t be sure now, and he only said euphemistically: “Li Shen committed the crime very suddenly. The murderer must have known the possibility of the murder back then, so he arranged this one.”
Huo Qinghong froze, “I…”
“You needn’t think too much about this. The murderer has a guilty conscience and will definitely pay attention to the yamen’s movements. Anyone who knows that the yamen has doubts about the kidnapping of Ming son will probably do something. It’s just a matter of time.”
This remark comforted Huo Qinghong by two points, his eyes rolled, “So… the murderer is most likely the person who was in the dojo that day?”
Bo Ruoyou nodded, “I’d better write a list.”
Huo Qinghong’s expression was serious and he didn’t dare to be sloppy, so he hurriedly asked Father Fu to find paper and pen. Two months have passed since the dojo. He was afraid of mistakes and omissions. He thought very carefully. Bo Ruoyou stood by and watched him write ten. With multiple names, suddenly, when she saw a certain name appear, her pupils shrank slightly.
Her complexion was serious and she was pacing back and forth in the hall, and Huo Qinghong stopped writing soon, “I have finished writing, you see—”
Bo Ruoyou took the list and read it carefully from beginning to end, and then asked: “My son still remembers that when they listened to you that day, who asked you specifically?”
Huo Qinghong thought for a while, and shook his head, “No, I was just gagging their mouths at the time. Later, they felt that they couldn’t hang on their faces, and they didn’t dare to criticize you clearly, so naturally they didn’t dare to say anything.”
Bo Ruoyou pressed the corners of his lips and did not answer any more, Huo Qinghong couldn’t help but feel a little nervous, “What’s the matter? But it’s different from your guess?”
Bo Ruoyou shook his head, and said with relief: “You don’t have to worry about the world. You don’t need to worry about the next thing. I’ll wait for Master Hou to come back.”
Huo Qinghong let out a cry, still a little unsure, the two waited in the hall for another half an hour before Huo Weilou returned to the Hou Mansion with a chill.
As soon as he entered the door, he listened to the attendant’s report that Bo Ruoyou had arrived at the mansion, and he couldn’t help but move faster.
When I entered the main hall, I saw Bo Ruoyou and Huo Qinghong both frowning, and I was even more surprised, “What happened?”
Bo Ruoyou got up to greet him, and said: “Hou Ye, did we not know why the murderer asked Li Shen to come out and commit the crime at that time?” She handed over the list of hands, “After returning home, I remembered one thing, It’s confirmed that Shi Cai will find the next generation son.”
Huo Weilou took the list, and Bo Ruoyou told the story of his encounter with Liu Yan that day, and said, “Just now, he asked the elder son. He did mention that I might be able to solve the case of the son, and dozens of people were present. It was because I heard this that I felt a sense of crisis. This dojo was in mid-October, and Li Shen was murdered on the twelfth of the winter moon. Nearly January, the murderer only found Li Shen for the crime, but Li Shen could not find it. A child born with Sanyang, that’s why he had such an omission.”
Bo Ruoyou finished speaking in one breath, Huo Weilou’s expression became serious, and Huo Qinghong became more and more nervous, “Big Brother, I–“
Huo Weilou waved his hand, “I don’t blame you this time.”
Huo Qinghong finally breathed a sigh of relief. Huo Wei Tower went to the main seat and said while reading the list: “Tell the situation that day carefully. Don’t miss anything.”
Huo Qinghong took a deep breath. Speaking of the initial greetings at the dojo on that day, he looked more cautious than ever before. After a while, he almost restored the scene of that day. When Huo Weilou heard the doubts of the yin and yang from several old clans. Ruoyou wrinkled her brows abruptly, and hurriedly looked at Bo Ruoyou’s expression. Bo Ruoyou smiled at him and didn’t care.
It took half a cup of tea before Huo Qinghong finished repeating, “That’s it. After I finished speaking, they also knew that Youyou was the county head pro-appointed by your majesty. They were probably afraid that the eldest brother would know about it, so they didn’t dare to criticize it. So he talked about other things angrily.”
Bo Ruoyou looked at Huo Weilou, “Just listen to the question, it seems that no one is deliberately inquiring, and no one can hear anything abnormal.”
Huo Weilou groaned: “At that time, there were so many people, the murderer must have been hidden in the crowd inconspicuously. If you say it more, you will be wrong. With the murderer’s heart, you will never be the one who is quick to speak.”
He looked at the list again, “Not all the people in it are involved in Feiyun Guan, and there are only those with a false name.”
He stood up and took Bo Ruoyou to the study. Huo Qinghong looked at and followed silently.
Back to the study, Huo Weilou took out the list of Feiyun Temple pilgrims that had been investigated by the Yamen. These pilgrims had been worshipping at Feiyun Temple for at least two years. He did a little comparison, and soon his sight fell on three. Above people.
“It’s not surprising that Mr. Zhongyi was also in the dojo on that day. Besides, there were two people who had been worshipped in Feiyun Temple, not to mention that they had a lot to do with Feiyun Temple.”
Bo Ruoyou walked to Huo Weilou’s side, and his fingertips clicked on the list.
She was not familiar with the royal family members in the capital, but she knew the two people named by Huo Weilou.
“Changning Hou Caoyan, Wei Huan, the third master of Zhongqin Bofu?”
Changning Hou Cao Yan is the uncle of the second highness of the present. He was involved in the gold cream case earlier. After the case was cleared, the Cao family was reprimanded by his majesty, and his family members were demoted to common people.
Bo Ruoyou is even more familiar with Bo Ruoyou. The deceased in the previous serial skinning murders, Wei Ling, came from the Bo Ruoyou.
“Changning Hou Caoyan once enshrined his mother’s longevity tablet in Feiyunguan for five years, but Zhongqin Bofu helped Feiyunguan build the Sanqing Palace?”
After Bo Ruoyou said this, Huo Qinghong couldn’t help but said, “I followed Wu Xiang to ask these two families the day before. The Cao family believed before the old lady passed away, and then went after the old lady passed away. Feiyun Temple worships memorial tablets, and Zhongqin Bofu is an old lady who believes in Buddhism, but these three masters also like to practice Taoism and alchemy, so they donated large sums of money to Taoism outside the city, Taoism Taoism, statues of gods, and they have a lot of time to practice outside each year. .”
Bo Ruoyou’s gaze fell on the names of these two people, and the rescue never looked away, “These two people, one is the brother of the noble concubine, who is in the hands of the glory and wealth, the other is behind the gate, and now they are the wealthy idlers. If the murderer is them, the motive is what is it then?”
“It’s the elder brother of the noble concubine. He has some glory and wealth in his hands, but he has no real power. He can ask for power, and the second majesty is now vying for the reserve. Maybe it is because of this. His elder brother holds real power. He himself is just an idler. They can ask for money and power to live forever as a reason, or they have unknown arrogance.” Huo Weilou glanced across the list, “Except for these two people. There is something weird about Uncle Zhongyi–“
Bo Ruoyou didn’t pay attention to Uncle Zhongyi. “Uncle Zhongyi? But it was him who directed us to Feiyun Tower.”
Huo Weilou said slowly: “This uncle loyal and righteous married Princess Anyang, the daughter of the late prince loyal. She was in the capital when she was young. She was very much loved by His Majesty and the Queen Mother, so Fuyin’s entire mansion, and The Zhao Qianshan and Yuanjie I mentioned earlier are both from Huai’an. This Huai’an is the former fief of Prince Zhong.”
Bo Ruoyou is a joke, “It means that Wang Qingfu was an official in the court, maybe it was Uncle Zhongyi who helped behind the scenes? It was the relationship of the loyal prince?”
Huo Weilou nodded, but he glanced at the list again, “As far as the background is concerned, the Cao family also has the power to help them promote in the dynasty, and the old students of the Wei family are also all over the army. I have sent people to Huai’an. I asked Zhao Qianshan for an inquiry. There will be news in a few days. Now that there are more Cao and Wei families, it is also necessary for people to verify.”
“However, even if it proves that one of them helped Wang Qingfu in the first place, it cannot prove that they are related to the murder. If this case is to be solved, one must find the whereabouts of Buddha Bao directly or find direct evidence related to several murders. Otherwise, they were found following Wang Qingfu’s line, and they could deny it categorically.”
