"Why?"
"Because this coffin contains ginger powder, which can effectively preserve the body from moisture." Ji Yunshu replied.
Scenery unknown.
"Of all the coffins dug up from Linshan, it seems that only this skeleton has ginger powder in it. Could it be that someone put it in deliberately?"
Ji Yunshu shook his head, "Last time when all the coffins were opened for screening, I smelled the ginger powder, and I didn't think much of it at the time, thinking that it was because the coffins were buried in different places, which caused the bones in this coffin to be more corrupted. Slow, but the more I think about it, the more wrong it is, among all the coffins, only this skeleton has the smell of ginger powder, and this smell comes from the clothes the skeleton is wearing."
After listening, Jing Rong took another serious look inside the coffin.
The little bit of clothing was tightly glued to the skeleton's ribs.
Jingrong Yingmei pressed her eyebrows tightly, thinking, "The fire in the Duke Yuguo's mansion, even if the clothes are still left, they should be burnt black, but this clothes doesn't seem to have been burned, it doesn't look like it was burned to death at all. , Besides, the deceased was a servant of Duke Yuguo's mansion, so why was he wearing silk? Something was wrong."
In Ji Yunshu's sharp eyes, a subtle light slowly gathered.
She touched the edge of the coffin with her fingers, and an idea came to her mind.
"Some of them moved their hands and feet after this coffin was buried."
"Yep?"
"If my guess is correct, the only explanation is that after this coffin was buried, someone reopened the coffin, changed the deceased into clean satin clothes, and sprinkled ginger powder to preserve the body."
Someone reopened the coffin
Jing Rong was surprised!
Ji Yunshu continued: "That person just changed the person in the coffin into clean clothes, which shows that he has a great relationship with this person, so he dug the coffin again after the deceased was buried, changed his clothes, and scattered the ginger. Fan, and that person is not aboveboard, it seems that he doesn't want to be known at all."
Analysis is over!
It's not like making assumptions out of thin air.
Jing Rong asked, "Has the portrait of the deceased come out?"
"Not yet." She sighed lightly and continued, "Forget it, draw a portrait of this person for now, and then check the matter, maybe the person who came to change the clothes of the deceased and sprinkle ginger powder is the one The one who escaped the fire."
"If that's the case, it's easy to handle."
"As long as this portrait comes out, I believe that the "Linjing Case" should make progress."
Jing Rong nodded in approval.
Ji Yunshu wiped his hands, turned around, and gestured to the two servants who had been beside him, and asked them to carry the coffin into the room, and also carried the skeleton out of the coffin, placing it directly on the lid of the coffin, covering it with a white cloth. .
This time, the sky is getting dark!
Jingrong did not tell Ji Yunshu about the disaster relief in Yufu County.
Seeing that it was getting late, Ji Yunshu left Jing Rong to eat together.
There were four side dishes on the table, no meat.
Green vegetables!
coriander!
Tofu!
Winter melon!
All in all, it looks like there is no appetite.
Jing Rong felt distressed when she saw it. This woman lives here and eats this every day. How can she keep her body up
then-
"You still have to eat better and nourish your body."
As he said that, he planned to let people remove all the things on the table, while instructing, "Go and get some nutritious things, have a pot of chicken, and a little bird's nest, hurry up."
"Yes!" The girls hurriedly planned to remove the things.
However, Ji Yunshu stopped the cabbage before she brought it back. She brought back all the cabbage that she had just evacuated.
He said, "Although these dishes are not as delicious and sweet as those of big fish and meat, they are also nutritious. On the contrary, those big fish and big meat are greasy and bad for the body, not to mention the big night, which is bad for the stomach. , easy to get sick."
ill!
Eat this tonight!
The corners of Jing Rong's mouth twitched, choking.
The four side dishes were put back again, and Ji Yunshu slowly picked up his chopsticks and ate it.
Jing Rong looked speechless!
"Don't eat?" she asked, raising her eyes.
Jing Rong swallowed a few times before taking the chopsticks and preparing to eat.
at this time-
The girl said at the door, "Mr. Ji, Miss Ji is here."
Ji Wanxin
Just after finishing these words, Ji Wanxin walked to the door with soft steps, her gentle eyes raised slightly, and her curved eyes first cast on Jing Rong's body, showing a slight anger.
She was a little shy, and she quickly moved it away, her hand in the front of her shirt couldn't help tightening.
And this inadvertent scene she collected very well!
Neither Ji Yunshu nor Jing Rong noticed.
Seeing Ji Wanxin coming over, Ji Yunshu quickly got up, walked to the door and held her hand,
"Why are you here so late?"
She lowered her head, the corners of her lips raised slightly, and said, "I just wanted to see you."
"Come in, it's cold outside."
Ji Yunshu hurriedly ushered her in, and the girls took off her cloak.
"have you eaten?"
Ji Wanxin shook her head.
Ji Yunshu pulled her down and sat down, ordering someone to take a pair of bowls and chopsticks.
From the beginning to the end, Jing Rong didn't even look at Ji Wanxin at all, she was holding a piece of winter melon in her mouth, chewed it a few times, and raised her eyebrows.
Mmm, it really tastes good!
Ji Wanxin glanced at him secretly and asked cautiously, "Why is your lord here today?"
Jing Rong didn't seem to hear.
On the contrary, Ji Yunshu threw a word, "He's here to eat food today."
rubbing rice
What is rubbing rice!
Ji Wanxin also understood the approximate meaning.
But she felt a loss in her heart, and she still looked at Jingrong from time to time, bit her lip, and always kept a faint smile.
Ji Yunshu glanced at Jing Rong, the boy was eating in big mouthfuls, and he was also eating the so-called "no nutrition" dishes in the bowl with relish.
It looks delicious!
Ji Yunshu couldn't help kicking him under the table.
what-
Jing Rong let out a slight pain.
He raised his head and glared at Ji Yunshu before asking, "What? Do you hate me for finishing your food?"
"no!"
"Then what's wrong with you, itchy feet?"
"… "
"Then eat well."
After that, he started to eat again.
Ji Yunshu's mouth twitched, ashamed.
Brother, it's my sister who is here, you have to say something, anyway, you have to say something.
Simply—
Ji Yunshu had no choice but to pull Ji Wanxin and say, "Eat more, these winter melons are good for you."
As she said that, she put a piece of winter melon in her bowl.
"Yun Shu, you don't have to take care of me."
The two exchanged greetings and regarded Jing Rong as a transparent person.
"By the way, I have prepared some medicinal materials, and you will bring them back later." Ji Yunshu said.
"Medicine?"
"You are weak, but there is a medicinal herb in this yard. It is Qingjie. It is good for your body. You remember to soak it in the water for a few more days. After mashing it, make it with dew and drink a cup a day."
Qing Jie, it's a medicine to keep out the cold!
