Chapter 118 Young Bao Qingtian
Chapter 118 Young Bao Qingtian
Feng Wu lifted the white cloth covering Li Gang's body, revealing the bloody corpse. Feng Wu first saw the wound on Li Gang's body, and then tried his inner abdomen with a silver needle.After checking everything up and down, inside and out, Feng Wu asked Shen Liang to take her to Li Gang's room, which is the scene of the murder, to have a look.
When he arrived at the scene of the murder, Feng Wu ignored the three of Shen Liang and looked around in the room on his own.Gongsun Ce and Bao Zheng glanced at each other, but they couldn't figure out what Feng Wu meant. A ten-year-old girl checked seriously in front of them. It seemed funny and interesting.
Finally, after checking the suspicious points in the room, Feng Wu sat directly on the chair in Li Gang's room.
"Hey, princess! This is the stool at the murder scene, you can't sit on it, it will destroy the scene." Bao Zheng was worried that Feng Wumao's hands and feet would destroy the crime scene, destroying some clues before they found it, so he hurriedly stopped it.
"It's okay, Brother Bao, I heard that your mother inspected Li Gang's body?" Feng Wu ignored Bao Zheng, and instead asked him a question that didn't fit the bill.
Although Bao Zheng was puzzled by what Feng Wuwen was doing, he still replied respectfully, "That's right, my mother is proficient in medical skills and often helps the government examine corpses. This time, my mother also assisted in the autopsy."
"Then what did your mother find out?"
"My mother said that Li Gang had a total of 43 wounds on his body. Before he died, he also fought with others. The wounds on his body were tightened and rolled up as scratches. He died because of excessive blood loss."
"Well, that's not bad, but what I want to tell you is that he didn't die from scratches. I just checked his wounds carefully. On the surface, it seems that the scratches are correct. But in fact, he was first used by someone. The sword killed it first, and then covered it with scratches, so you said earlier that he was bitten to death by some female ghost or wolf girl, it was all wrong." Feng Wujian Bao Zheng and Gongsun Ce both opened their mouths wide, Obviously they were overly frightened, and then they stared at Feng Wu closely, the urgency revealed in their eyes made Feng Wu jump.
Feng Wu didn't play charades, and continued: "And I also saw the scratches made by a sword under this table, which further corroborates my autopsy results, that he really died from a sword wound."
Feng Wuzhi pointed to the table beside him, signaling that Bao Zheng could look for himself if he didn’t believe it. When Bao Zheng, Gongsun Ce, and Shen Liang heard new clues, they quickly squatted on the ground to check, and sure enough they saw the scratches Feng Wu had mentioned.
"The princess is as careful as dust, Bao Zheng admires it! But Bao Zheng dared to ask how the princess saw that the scratches on Li Gang's body were deliberately made by someone?" Seeing that the wound on Li Gang's body was not a scratch but a sword wound, even his mother was deceived by the murderer's tricks.
"To be honest, I have loved studying medical skills since I was a child. I always exchanged ideas with some imperial doctors in the capital, and I learned a little bit over time."
"So that's the case, the princess has such sharp eyesight at such a young age, it's really too modest." It seems that I have to go back and discuss the issue of talent with his mother, what the princess learned at the age of ten can rival his mother for most of her life People who know how to do things are really incomparable.
"Brother Bao, don't always call me Princess, just call me Changle. Don't you think I always call you Brother Bao?"
"Yes, then Bao Zheng has the cheek to agree." Bao Zheng clasped his fists and saluted. So far, he has a good impression of this princess from the capital.
"Okay, let me tell you two, don't hire the elder brother and the princess to go over there. Now that it is confirmed that the prince Li Gang died by the sword instead of being bitten to death. What about Xiao Ai? Even if the clues are broken, hurry up and think about any new doubts.” Gongsun Ce felt that this murder case would blow his head, only five days, and now it’s been a day, if he still can’t find any new If the murderer is caught, the people of Luzhou City will suffer.
"Gongsun Ce is right, what should we do now?" Shen Liang also looked distressed, he was just a policeman with a sharp knife, he was not good at solving cases, and he could only help Bao Zheng and Gongsun Ce. A smart man running errands.
Feng Wu looked at Shen Liang more, this Shen Liang looked stronger than Bao Zheng and Gongsun Ce, and his words and deeds were much rougher than theirs.However, presumably it was because Shen Liang was a martial artist who practiced martial arts diligently as a policeman, while Bao Zheng and Gongsun Ce were frail scholars with no strength to restrain a chicken, so they didn't pay much attention.
Just when everyone was thinking, the yamen servant ran over to report that he had found Xiao Ai's whereabouts. Bao Zheng ran out first, followed by Feng Wu, Gongsun Ce, and Shen Lang.Although the possibility of Xiao Ai's murder has been ruled out, the only way to find a breakthrough is Xiao Ai, the suspect.
Feng Wu and a group of people from the yamen rushed to the place mentioned by the informant. It was a deserted forest, surrounded by some bamboos, and Xiao Ai was lying in an open space, unconscious.
Shen Lang and Xiao Ai are usually the best friend, and there is still a bit of ambiguity between the two of them. At this time, seeing Xiao Ai lying on the ground with unknown life and death, he hurriedly wanted to run over to have a look, but was dragged back by Bao Zheng.
"Brother Shen, wait a minute, there are no footprints around here, how did Xiao Ai get there?"
"Oh! Don't worry about this, it's important to save people." Shen Liang broke away from Bao Zheng's hand holding his arm, and ran to Xiao Ai and embraced her in his arms.
"Xiao Ai...Xiao Ai?!"
Feng Wu walked over and squatted beside Xiao Ai to help her feel her pulse, "She's fine, she just passed out."
Feng Wucong took out a small cloth bag from his arms, opened it to reveal a row of large and small silver needles, took out a silver needle and stuck it in Xiaoai's Shenmen and Shaoshang acupuncture points, gently twisted it twice, and then pulled it out Xiao Ai responded immediately.
"Okay, let's take her back first!"
"Okay, I'll take Xiaoai back to rest now." Shen Liang came back to his senses, nodded at Feng Wu, picked up Xiaoai and ran back.
Feng Wu had to pack the needle bag, so she was the last person to walk. When she left this wasteland, she looked back at the surrounding bamboos and stretched out her hand. The toughness of the bamboos was indeed strong enough.
After returning, Xiao Ai woke up, probably because she was stimulated before she fell into a coma, her mind was a little confused, she didn't let anyone approach her, and she kept muttering that there was a female ghost, and it was the female ghost who saved her.
"I thought that if I found Xiaoai, there would be some new clues, but Xiaoai is like this now..." Gongsun Ce was a little depressed, and the clues he got were gone.
"He broke open the statue of the female ghost, he is so fierce...it is...it is a female ghost, the female ghost has come to look for him! I am so scared..." Xiao Ai hugged her body and curled up at the foot of the bed, her whole body Not to mention trembling, his eyes were glazed.
Feng Wu sat on a chair in a steady state, drank tea, and quietly watched Xiao Ai's performance. His acting skills needed to be improved.
"Don't pretend, you have never seen a female ghost, and there is no such thing as a female ghost in this world. You are safe and sound because someone saved you!"
As soon as Feng Wu finished speaking, Xiao Ai's voice stopped, and everyone turned their heads to look at Feng Wu, wondering why she said this.
"Princess Changle, you are thinking too much! Xiao Ai is so frightened, why do you still say she is faking?" Bao Zheng and Gongsun Ce were frowning and observing Xiao Ai, and it was Bao who said this. Auntie, because she just took Xiao Ai's pulse, and the pulse showed that she was indeed frightened.
"Why, do you admit that I have to expose you a little bit?" Feng Wu ignored Aunt Bao's question, just stared at Xiao Ai and asked, seeing that she still didn't speak, he put the teacup in his hand on the table beside him , Youyou said: "Follow us all the way back here from the bamboo forest outside the city, girl, you must be tired too! Why don't you come in and have a cup of tea with me?"
Feng Wu moved very quickly, and no one noticed that she had already shot a silver needle towards the roof, only to hear a bang, and a heavy object fell on the ground outside.
The yamen servants rushed out to check, and after a while, they escorted a woman in.
"She's a good person, she just wanted to save me, Princess Chuchu didn't kill anyone!" Seeing the girl being brought in, Xiao Ai didn't continue to pretend to be crazy, and ran down from the bed to block the girl she called 'Chuchu' in front of you.
This Chu Chu didn't mean to be afraid at all, and asked Feng Wu with a straight neck: "They didn't find out, how did you find out that I was following you?"
Feng Wu saw that everyone wanted to know, and was happy to help them out: "First, when Xiao Ai was found unconscious, there was no footprints around her. How is it possible for an ordinary girl to have no help? Second, It was also at the place where Xiao Ai was found. I found that some bamboos had broken marks. Obviously, someone sent Xiao Ai to the middle of the open space through the flexibility of the bamboo. Of course, there is the most important point, that is, this sister, you His footsteps and breathing were a bit heavy, unfortunately I heard them."
"I didn't expect that I, Ling Chuchu, would fall on a little girl like you. Since I was caught by you, I have nothing to hide. That's right, I sneaked into Yi Pavilion and rescued Xiao Ai, but I didn't kill that beast , I just can’t see that bullshit prince bullying Xiao Ai. Xiao Ai often brings food to sacrifice to the female ghost, of course it’s for me to eat, so when she was robbed, I followed her to Yige to wait for an opportunity to rescue her leave her."
Ling Chuchu told everyone about her saving lives by pretending to be a female ghost, and the calm expression she had when she spoke didn't seem like she was telling lies.
"Then when you sneaked into Laiyi Pavilion and rescued Xiao Ai, did you find anything suspicious?" Bao Zheng also believed that Li Gang was not killed by Xiao Ai and Ling Chuchu, but Ling Chuchu might be other than the murderer. The last person who saw Li Gang might have seen something that others don't know.
"At that time, time was running out. After I frightened Prince Gao Li, I immediately dragged Xiao Ai out of the window. I didn't find anything special."
Ling Chuchu lowered her head and thought for a long time, but she didn't think there was anything suspicious. Suddenly, Ling Chuchu thought of the strange shadow she saw hiding outside the window, and shouted: "Oh, yes! I saw a cross His shadow hangs on the beam!"
"Cross? Li Gang used his blood to leave a cross on the ground before his death, and you saw another cross on the wall. Is this a coincidence?" Bao Zheng fell into deep thought again and became silent.
According to historical records, Bao Zheng would be fine this time, and Feng Wu didn't worry if he had the bottom line.After working all day, she still hasn't eaten, the most important thing now is to eat, her cheap father must have been served by Gongsun Zhenzhen.
"I'm going to eat, who of you wants to go with me?"
Feng Wu's proposal was strongly approved by everyone. In the end, Feng Wu, Bao Zheng, Gongsun Ce and Ling Chuchu went to a famous restaurant in Luzhou to have dinner together, and Feng Wu treated them.
While waiting for Xiao Er to serve the food, everyone discussed the case while eating snacks.
"In my opinion, the clues to track down the murderer should be focused on three aspects. First, it is the killing cross that does not know what it represents; second, who sent the gang of men in black who assassinated the prince in the street?" ;Third, someone who came to Yi Pavilion that night was lying!!"
Bao Zheng wiped the tea from the tea bowl on the table, scribbled, and analyzed the existing clues and doubts while writing.
"Whether the murder cross is related to the murder case remains to be verified; the group of people who came to Yige have no evidence to prove that there is anything wrong with them, and the ones who can continue to investigate now are the group of people in black." Shen Liang echoed. .
"I heard from you that the men in black who came out of the street were targeting Prince Li Gang. Although they wanted to kill people, I don't think this group of men in black had anything to do with Li Gang's death."
"What's Chang Le's opinion?"
"Before I said it, Brother Gongsun thinks I have a good opinion?"
"Based on what Chang Le did today, we don't dare to underestimate you anymore!" Gongsun Strategy made a slight joke, but his tone was very serious.
"Intuition! Listening to the men in black you describe, I always feel that they are caused by internal power struggles in Goryeo. For example, the seventh prince wants to replace Li Gang as the crown prince. Of course, these are just my guesses. It needs to be confirmed by you two smart people." Feng Wu's fingers clicked back and forth between Bao Zheng and Gongsun Ce, as if relying on you.
In the end, the corpses of men in black and the clues on the poisoned darts that Bao Zheng found in the ruined temple proved that Feng Wu's guess was correct. Those men in black were sent by Li Xi, the Seventh Prince of Goryeo, to assassinate Prince Li Gang. The purpose of the killer is to become the crown prince.
It's just that when everyone rushed to Yi Pavilion to arrest people, they just heard Li Xi's screams. When Feng Wu followed Bao Zheng and others to check, he found that Li Xi died tragically in his room just like Li Gang, with wounds on his body. Exactly the same as Li Gang, a murderous cross was also left on the ground.
"Hmph! It doesn't matter if the prince is dead, now even the seventh prince is dead! Eighth prince, can any of you tell me what's going on?!" Goryeo Cui Shangshu crushed the teacup on the table, angrily Ask the Eight Sage King Xingshi about his crimes.
"You are so angry! There is no need to rush this matter." Feng Wu glanced at his father, as expected, he was the most calm prince in the court, and he was not angry when he was pointed at his nose.
"The two princes are dead, and you still tell me not to worry! According to your statement, the Eighth Prince, don't you want us all to die before you worry!!"
"We are also very anxious when this kind of thing happens. Don't worry, the princess, we will find the murderer as soon as possible and give you an explanation." Feng Wu poured a cup of hot tea and handed it to Princess Gaoli, her hand casually brushed the princess's face wrist.She didn't want to talk too much at first, but the little Koryo Bangziguo dared to show face to her cheap father, which is really a big deal.
"However, the princess wants to ask Cui Shangshu a question, and I hope Cui Shangshu can explain the confusion to the princess." Feng Wu lowered his head and picked a tea stem out of the teacup with his fingernails, but the dirty tea She doesn't know how to drink, so she wipes her nails with an embroidered handkerchief.
"Princess, please tell me." Cui Shangshu's tone was weak, very reluctant.
"I heard Brother Bao say that on the night your prince Li Gang was killed, Cui Shangshu said that he was practicing swords in his room. Is that right?"
"That's right, what's wrong with that."
"Practicing the sword is of course no problem, but I want to know where is Cui Shangshu's sword? I wonder if the princess is lucky enough to see it?" As soon as Feng Wu said this, Cui Guanghao's face changed suddenly, and his face showed a flustered expression. It passed by in a flash, but everyone present saw it.
"That's right! Why didn't I think of it! You talk about practicing swords all day long, but none of us have seen your sword." Bao Zheng also looked suddenly enlightened, and without this reminder from Feng Feng, he finally Knowing what was wrong, no wonder he always felt that someone in Yige was lying.
"For sword practice, any sword will do."
"That's right! But the sword on your waist is very strange." Feng Wuyun lightly worked, and directly approached Cui Guanghao's side, while he was not paying attention, pulled out the soft sword wrapped around his waist, and held it in his hand Play carefully.
Cui Guanghao didn't expect that Feng Wu would attack him in public, nor did he expect that Feng Wu's martial arts were so strong at a young age, and his sword was taken away without realizing it.
"Why do I look at this sword...it looks like the murder weapon that killed Prince Li Gang and Seventh Prince Li Xi." Feng Wu said with a smile that shocked Cui Guanghao.
"Princess, please be careful, even if my sword can cause wounds on the two princes, it does not mean that I killed them." Cui Guanghao flicked his sleeves, sat back on the chair, and glared at Feng Wu, but unfortunately Feng Wu didn't even look at him.
"Oh, you mean your alibi? But the yamen outside the door only said that they saw your shadow practicing swords. This shadow may not be your Cui Shangshu, but maybe the princess who has a close relationship with you."
"Don't talk nonsense!"
"Whether I am talking nonsense or not, Master Cui and the princess must know it best."
"I don't understand what you mean by that."
"Don't you really understand? Forgot to tell Cui Shangshu that the princess is not only highly skilled in martial arts, but also proficient in medical skills. When I was handing tea to the princess just now, I accidentally touched her wrist. Her pulse is not normal. It's slippery." ..."
"Shut up!" Feng Wu's words were interrupted by Cui Guanghao's furious roar. At this time, Cui Guanghao looked at Feng Wu with eyes, wishing he could swallow her alive.
"Are you angry? I just want to tell Cui Shangshu to be careful when he speaks. Once you say this, there is no reason to take it back."
When Feng Wu noticed the relationship between Cui Guanghao and the princess of Gaoli, he had considered whether he was the murderer, but all signs showed that Cui Guanghao was not the murderer, because there were still many mysteries about him that did not make sense.
"Thank you, Princess Changle, for your advice." Cui Guanghao reluctantly bowed his hands to Feng Wu, and bowed to the Baxian King, before helping Princess Gaoli to leave.
"Princess, let's meet up with General Pu. If we live with these Song people, we will die."
