Chapter 67 Four and incense 07(1/2)
Bo Ruoyou walked up to salute, "Greetings to the Marquis."
Huo Weilou said "hmm" in the carriage, "Come up."
Bo Ruoyou glanced at Eunuch Fu, Eunuch Fu nodded to her, and kept raising her hand to make her go up soon. Bo Ruoyou thought for a moment and turned around and told Uncle Liang to get on the carriage. Zheng Liang knew about Huo Weilou's identity, and seeing that Bo Ruoyou trusted Huo Weilou very much, he returned home as he did the day before yesterday.
Bo Ruoyou got on the carriage and sat down at the corner of the door, and asked again: "Why did the Marquis come?"
After all, I just saw it last night, and Bo Ruoyou didn't expect Huo Weilou to appear again tonight.
Outside, Eunuch Fu didn't come in and just sat on the shaft of the carriage. Soon the carriage slowly moved.
Huo Wei Lou said: "The deceased was found again in the government office today."
It turned out to be here to ask the case! Bo Ruoyou's expression was slightly upright, "Yes, the deceased is also a woman, and it is quite similar to the deceased who was examined by the civilian woman yesterday. She was wearing a red dress and was also skinned. The civilian woman speculated that it might be that the murderer was not the same person."
"Same skinned?" Huo Weilou frowned.
"Yes, the female corpse I tested yesterday was peeled off on the back and vest. The dead person who was tested today was peeled off the heart. Yesterday's female corpse died for a long time and the wound was rotten seriously. It was impossible to tell which sharp weapon was used. But today I found that the one who used should be thinned knives, and the murderer was very good at cutting flesh. The wounds found today were in the shape of a round fan, with neat cuts and circular arcs, and the shape of the circular arc was extremely regular. The murderer was not only good at using the knife, but also good at very delicate and meticulous knife skills."
After Bo Ruoyou finished speaking, Huo Weilou subconsciously glanced at her chest when he heard her description. After a while, he looked into her eyes again, "Do you know the identity of the deceased today?"
Bo Ruoyoucai was bored because of this, "I know, he is the second lady from Zhongqin's mansion."
Huo Weilou nodded, "Zhongqin Bo Mansion started his career with military merits. Lao Zhongqin Bo died in the battlefield twenty years ago. The new Zhongqin Bo is now guarding the northwest border defense. It can be said that the whole family is loyal and wise. This time the deceased is his youngest daughter. Mrs. Zhongqin Bo Mansion has a straight temperament and is the only one in the Bo Mansion. She does not want Jingzhao Mansion to manage the case. She entered the palace in the afternoon and met the queen mother."
Bo Ruoyou's eyes lit up slightly, "So the Marquis wants to take over this case?"
Huo Weilou looked at her for a moment, but said, "It's not decided yet."
In the afternoon, Sun Zhao followed him to Bo Mansion. First, he was to appease him, and second, he wanted to ask about the second lady Wei Ling's recent situation to find clues to solve the case. The old lady understood what Sun Zhao meant and said that the case was unwilling to be handed over to the Jingzhao Prefecture Office. Jingzhao Prefecture Office went to the neighborhoods who stole chickens and dogs and argued, and went to the capital of Jingzhao Prefecture to be under jurisdiction. Moreover, there were many civil servants in the yamen. This case was given to Jingzhao Prefecture, which was to be known to everyone. Even if it was to guard against it, it would be spread in the capital sooner or later.
The old lady didn't want her granddaughter to be stigmatized, so she naturally didn't want to compromise. But Sun Zhao tried to persuade her, saying that since this case was a murder case, the government must investigate it clearly, and more than one person might be killed this time. If the murderer was delayed, more innocent women would be killed. The old lady was moved in grief and wanted to find the murderer who killed her granddaughter. She thought about it and felt that instead of handing over the case to Jingzhao Mansion, it would be better to ask for an order to ask the embroidered envoy to take over the case.
The embroidered garment envoy was the direct envoy of the emperor, and usually walked as a palace guard. In and outside the court, many cases were handed over to the embroidered garment envoy. Not only was it extremely efficient, but it was also not leaked. It was handed over to Jingzhao Mansion, and there was also a murderer that could not be found in half a month or several months.
The old lady must have thought of entering the palace. When she met the queen mother, the queen mother gave her intentions to Emperor Jianhe. Huo Weilou only learned that the lady Zhongqin Mansion was killed in the case. However, Emperor Jianhe did not issue an order for him to take over.
The embroidered garment inspected all officials on behalf of the emperor. Although the murder of the powerful and powerful daughter made ordinary officials very nervous, it was not considered a major case in the embroidered garment. Emperor Jianhe could not let the embroidered garment be in charge of these ordinary cases at will.
Even Huo Weilou felt that this case was enough to make Jingzhao Mansion focus on investigation.
But he saw the light in Bo Ruoyou's eyes fade, so he raised his eyebrows slightly, "Do you want me to take over this case?"
Bo Ruoyou was indeed a little excited just now. She had seen how He Cheng was constrained, and how Huo Weilou was so resolute. This time, it was implicated by Huo Weilou. Of course, Huo Weilou came to take over the case, but since the decision had not been made, there was something wrong with her. She hesitated for a moment: "The female girl knew that the Marquis was extremely efficient in handling the case, so she naturally felt that if the Marquis took over the case, she would definitely achieve twice the result with half the effort. However, the court had a court layout, and the female girl only dared to think about it."
Huo Weilou laughed when he heard this, saying very restrainedly, but the meaning was clear. The carriage slowly moved and soon arrived at the downtown area. The sky became dark, and the lamps of the painted buildings lit up in the orders. The dim halo shone in through the gaps of the curtains, reflecting a flowing mottled spot on the thin and dark side.
His phoenix eyes were half narrow, "The dead were all women, and they were all stripped of their flesh, which was a bit strange."
The light in Bo Ruoyou's eyes surged out, the curtains rose and fell, and the light falling on her face also swayed. The light in her eyes flashed with stars. "The young woman has been a coroner for several years and has seen many strange cases, but the murderer likes to peel away the woman's flesh, but the young woman has never seen it. The murderer seems to have any strange purpose."
Seeing Huo Weilou looking at him with concentration, Bo Ruoyou couldn't help but want to say more: "If you love a woman's appearance, you also have evil thoughts for sex, but these two dead people showed no signs of being violated. Not only that, although they were bruised, they were all treated violently, not traces of intimacy. From this, it can be seen that the murderer was plotting against them for other reasons."
"Because of the peeled flesh?" Huo Weilou suddenly said.
Huo Weilou said this ordinary, but Bo Ruoyou felt cold when her back heard it. She couldn't help but shrink her shoulders. "The two dead were cut off from the place where they were cut off, either in the vest or on their chest. How can ordinary people see this place?"
Thinking of this, Bo Ruoyou thought about what he saw during the autopsy. Although the first corpse was so bad, there were no other rough traces in the surface of the corpse except for the spot marks. Moreover, she was born in a wealthy family and thought she was spoiled. Today, Miss Wei's body was flawless. Although she was no longer alive when she saw it, it was not difficult to imagine that if a person was still alive, her skin would be as flawless as jade.
A strange feeling hit Bo Ruoyou's heart, "Or, the murderer chose to take action when he looked at the flawless skin, and then choose to peel off the flesh somewhere?"
As a woman, she was so excited about herself.
These beautiful little girls are innocent and charming, and they are the most charming. If they are just targeted by the murderer because of their charming appearance and skin as snow, and the murderer's method of murder is so cruel, it is really chilling.
Huo Weilou saw Bo Ruoyou's nervousness, and his brows frowned slightly, "It's not impossible. Five years ago, this marquis saw a case. The case occurred in Xuzhou. The murderer liked women's sex. After he violated the woman and killed her, he liked to cut off the woman's ink hair as a souvenir. Later, when he was caught, he found that there was half a basket of women's hair hidden in his home."
His voice sank, "This time the murderer peeled off the woman's flesh, perhaps because he left a souvenir to murder the woman, or perhaps because of his strange preferences, there are too many evil people in the world, and some things that have not been seen with his own eyes or even unimaginable that they will actually happen."
Bo Ruoyou has also seen many cruel cases. The tragedy in Qingzhou was eventually born because of seeking revenge. However, she has never seen such a strange murderer as Ruoweilou mentioned. Ordinary people have ways to discuss things, and there are too many demons and monsters in this world, and sometimes it is difficult to understand their motives for harming people.
Bo Ruoyou waved the terror in his heart and continued: "The two female victims who were killed were skinned differently. If the murderer had any strange obsession, he should not be obsessed with somewhere."
One was on the back and the other was on the heart. Huo Weilou looked at Bo Ruoyou and suddenly asked, "Where is the most charming thing about a woman's skin?"
It was clearly asking about the case, but Bo Ruoyou's expression changed slightly when he heard it, and his shoulders tightened again, "This... how did this folk girl know? Even if she knows it, she only knows that she doesn't know others, and how can people be the same as others..."
As she spoke, her voice was low, and her face was slightly hot. Fortunately, the light in the car was dim, so it was impossible to see that she was shy. However, Huo Weilou knew what she was thinking when she heard her talk. His throat moved and his mouth was serious. "Since that's the case, maybe it's the murderer who is based on his own preference."
Bo Ruoyou didn't want to continue talking about this, so he quickly turned his mind and said, "The most important thing is that two people have been killed now. If they were really the same murderer, they might continue to harm people."
Huo Weilou naturally understood, "Time is tight, so it is necessary to find out the murderer earlier. However, recently, this marquis has something else at hand, and His Majesty does not think that this case should be handed over to the embroidered envoy."
Bo Ruoyou knew that Huo Weilou could not control the case. She sighed in her heart, but she didn't show anything on her face. She just said, "The girl understands that the girl is very concerned about the case. Lord Sun will not be careless, she must do her best."
Huo Weilou frowned, "Brother Wu? You are so sweet."
Bo Ruoyou was a little pitiful, "Captain Wu is much older than the young woman. Although he was a little fierce and vicious at the beginning, he was quite heroic. Later, he was also a kind person, so the young woman..."
Huo Weilou pursed his lips slightly, "You are the one recommended by me. In their opinion, you trust me, but you like to demote yourself." This tone was quite disagreeable, as if he had lost his face so much.
Bo Ruoyou didn't expect Huo Weilou to look arrogant, but he had to pay attention to such trivial matters. He didn't look like a person who cared about face like that...
Thinking so in his heart, but he didn't dare to say it openly. Bo Ruoyou had to say, "Okay, that folk girl won't call you anymore."
Huo Weilou was only satisfied. Bo Ruoyou lifted the curtain and looked out, but saw that the road was actually going to Changxingfang. Although he had just circled around the Imperial Street, he was not going to the Marquis' Mansion. She blinked, "Is the Marquis going to send the daughter home?"
Huo Weilou said "Yes", "I won't take you home if I have something to do today."
I don't know how he heard Bo Ruoyou's heart heated, as if Huo Weilou had regarded her as someone who could enter and exit Wu Zhaohou's Mansion at will. In her opinion, only Huo Qinghong and Ming Guilan were his own people who were his own people to visit him. Does Huo Weilou feel that he really treated her as his own people now?
Bo Ruoyou turned his eyes to Huo Weilou. At this time, the curtains were lifted higher by her, and more dim light poured in, which made Huo Weilou's eyebrows clearer. Bo Ruoyou saw the tired look between Huo Weilou's eyebrows and eyes at first glance.
I don’t know what Huo Weilou did today, but the fatigue is obvious. Although I knew about this case, I came to ask it out, but it seemed that it was not necessary. Bo Ruoyou said, “Is the Marquis very busy? In fact, I just want to send someone to ask about the case.”
Huo Weilou glanced at her, "I'm afraid I can't ask clearly if someone else asks."
Bo Ruoyou thought that he had control over everything, so he didn't think much. At this time, Huo Weilou pinched his eyebrows a little tired. She put down the curtain and said softly: "Although the Marquis is busy, he should have rested."
Huo Weilou's hand fell down, and his voice was a little hoarse, "I can't care about it-"
Bo Ruoyou couldn't help but say again: "The Marquis is so ignorant of hard work, and now he doesn't realize anything. He will suffer in the future."
Her eyes were clearly black and white, and Huo Weilou couldn't help but feel a little jealous. Seeing that there were still two streets away from her house, he waved, "Somewhat a headache, may you use the method of pushing acupoints to slow down this hou?"
Huo Weilou did feel a little tired, but now he is strong and not as strong as he needs to see the doctor. Bo Ruoyou couldn't help but get closer, and after thinking about it, he said, "The Marquis turned sideways."
On the side of Huo Weilou, Bo Ruoyou sat next to him. Because he couldn't reach it, he got up and half-kneeled on the couch, raised his hand to rub his temples. There was a layer of thin calluses on her fingertips. When it fell on the corner of Huo Weilou's forehead, Huo Weilou closed his phoenix eyes and the carriage was shaking. His back was occasionally touched by her, but Bo Ruoyou was sighing.
Huo Weilou closed his eyes and said, "Where is it that makes you dissatisfied?"
Now that Huo Weilou is facing her back, Bo Ruoyou shook his head and said, "The Marquis is the busiest person a folk girl has ever seen. Her father-in-law also said that the Marquis is shallow. If he continues for so many years, the Marquis will really not be able to bear it."
Huo Weilou's lips bent silently, "It's nothing to get used to it."
Bo Ruoyou curled his lips gently and moved his hand from his temple to Fengchi point. Fengchi point was in the depression of the veins at the back of the neck. As soon as Bo Ruoyou's hand fell, Huo Weilou felt a numbness rushing through his back. In order to exert force, she half-set her hand on the side of his neck, rubbing and rubbing on his neck while rubbing. Soon, Huo Weilou's back felt a little stiff.
This is not relaxing, it is simply torture.
Huo Weilou couldn't help but lean forward, Bo Ruoyou's hands were empty, "Is the civilian woman heavy?"
For him, how could her hand be heavy? Huo Weilou frowned and turned around, moving his neck, "It's not that his hand is heavy, it's you who are going to get it-"
After the words were finished, the carriage slowed down. Bo Ruoyou lifted the curtain at the window and saw that the door of the house was approaching. She turned around and said, "If the Marquis feels uncomfortable, the method of pushing acupoints is indeed very effective. There are many acupoints that can relieve fatigue. It is difficult for the folk girl to say all of them. However, Master Ming must know that, Master Ming can ask Master Ming to draw a picture for you."
Huo Weilou was still hot. Seeing that she was worried a lot, she felt relieved and irritable. When the carriage stopped, she said, "Okay, I know, let's go home."
When he arrived at the door of the house, Bo Ruoyou felt very happy. He responded and turned around and lifted the curtain and walked down. Huo Weilou heard her and Eunuch Fu say goodbye after the curtains. He heard her and Eunuch Fu come in. When her voice disappeared, Eunuch Fu lifted the curtain and came in. He rolled his eyes in the dark and said sarcastically: "Dare you ask the marquis, do you want Mr. Ming to come over to draw pictures?"
Huo Weilou leaned against the wall of the car, waiting for the numbness on his back to pass by. His face was hidden in the dim light without discerning emotions, and he said with a heavy feeling: "You are talking too much."
Eunuch Fu muttered softly, unable to hear what it was, but Huo Weilou was too lazy to pay attention. His phoenix eyes were slightly closed, and waves of craze surged up. For the first time in his life, he felt that he didn't want to endure it.
When Bo Ruoyou returned to his house, Cheng Yunzhi knew that Wu Zhaohou had come to see her again. He couldn't help but ask a few more questions. Bo Ruoyou told him about the new case today. Cheng Yunzhi was also an old coroner. He thought that why Wu Zhaohou came to find his daughter for several days. When he heard that it was related to the case, he didn't realize that something was wrong. He even said: "This murderer is probably a person with distorted mind. Now he died in less than half a month. Perhaps he would have to commit a crime, and it is more likely... Before these two people, someone had been killed, but the family had not reported to the official position and everyone didn't know."
When Bo Ruoyou heard this, he immediately thought of the half basket of women who were talking about Huo Weilou, not seeking revenge or robbing money. If such a distorted mind would not only murder one person. Thinking of this, she felt that the case was extraordinary urgency.
Perhaps he had inferred many possibilities with Huo Weilou on the carriage. Ye Bo Ruoyou had a terrible dream. The bloody human skin in the dream was peeled off, and the bloody flesh under the skin was bleeding. The man was still alive, and the ink hair was black and rolled towards her like a rope.
Bo Ruoyou was almost awakened. Before the sky was dawn, she took a moment to get up. After breakfast, she went to the yamen without delay. When she arrived at the yamen, she met Wu Xiang and was about to leave. Seeing that she was coming, Wu Xiang stopped.
"What are you doing so early every day? You don't have to have a autopsy today, so go back and rest."
Once she trusted her, Wu Xiang really had the care of her brother in her words. Bo Ruoyou held her lips, "Wu... Captain Wu doesn't have to be polite to me--"
As the headmaster came to the headmaster, it seemed a little less friendly, but Huo Weilou was not happy, and she didn't dare to disobey, so she continued: "I thought about it yesterday, but I felt that the murderer of this case was quite strange. I was afraid that he would not stop, so I felt a little worried. Where are you going now? Did you ask about the clues from the Wei family?"
Wu Xiang was rough and straightforward, and didn't mind calling him anything. Seeing that Bo Ruoyou was a little girl who was trying her best to be slutty about the case, she liked her very much, "I'm worried about this matter. Yesterday, the old lady of Bo's mansion entered the palace and wanted His Majesty to give him mercy and handed over the case to the embroidered clothing envoy, but how could the embroidered clothing envoy take over such a small case? The old lady didn't believe in evil, but she was in a stalemate. We all don't give us any face. Last night, the yamen would not let go to the mansion, let alone inquiring about it."
Wu Xiang sighed, "I know that the murderer you said will not stop, but now only the Feng family is willing to cooperate, so I thought about going to Feng family for a moment. After reporting to the official position the last time, her father came a few times. I heard that her mother had fallen ill long ago. These days, she only sent servants to inquire every day, and wanted to take the body back to the funeral."
"I want to ask the details of that day, and ask the Feng family girl what social relationship she has on weekdays, and see if she can find anything. This Feng family girl is a business girl, but she is not as good as the lady of Bofu. But the murderer actually killed her two of them, so his identity is quite strange. Or, it may not be possible that the girl of Feng family and Bofu have any interaction."
Wu Xiang's words made Bo Ruoyou feel excited. Indeed, let's not talk about how cruel and distorted the murderer was, but how did he choose these two girls with some different status to commit murder? If they had some interactions between them, they might also find some clues.
"May I go with you?" Bo Ruoyou couldn't help asking.
Wu Xiang frowned, "You are not a yamen officer, why run around and suffer?"
Bo Ruoyou smiled bitterly, "I won't have a body exam today, so it's okay for me to stay in the yamen. Although I'm going with me, I will never cause trouble. If you think I'm in the way, just ask me to go home..."
Speaking of this, Wu Xiang was a little amused and shaking his head and said, "This is what you want to go, not what I have to take you there-"
Bo Ruoyou responded quickly, and the group went to Feng's house.
To be continued...
