Huo Huaixin's voice was sneering, Wei Yanzhi was as frozen as a statue, before turning around for a while, Huo Huaixin took another step forward, "This letter is the key evidence to determine who is the murderer, Second Young Master Stealing him out, could it be that we want to know who the murderer is first?"
The heat in the room was overwhelming, Wei Yanzhi's face was dripping with sweat, but there was a chill in his feet.
He had thought of it a long time ago, but he hesitated for a whole day and was still fooled, because only he knew that he only had this chance, no matter it was true or false, he had no chance to take the risk, even if he knew nine out of ten He will expose himself, he still has to go, because once the content of that letter is exposed, he will be thrown into the hell that will never be restored.
Wei Yanzhi gritted his teeth, and looked down at the letter in his hand. Wei Yanzhi's pupils constricted for a moment when he saw it. There was not a single word on this wet letter that smelled like medicine. .
He fell for it, it's a game—
Huo Huaixin saw him bowing his head, so he laughed, "Why would Second Young Master think that we will put the real letter in the box?" Huo Huaixin narrowed his eyes slightly, and his tone sounded full of sarcasm, but only Yan Chi who was beside him could hear that every word he said was very cautious.
Sure enough, Wei Yanzhi turned around, and as soon as he turned around, he saw many people standing in his empty room.
Huo Huaixin took the lead, then Yan Chi and Yue Qiong stood side by side, and behind, Qi Lin stood side by side with Yue Qing and Yue Jia, everyone looked at him mockingly and contemptuously.
Wei Yanzhi firmly grasped the Yijin paper in his hand, raised his chin slightly, and sneered, "Master Zhifu really took great pains for me, and even set up such a big game with Miss Nine."
Huo Huaixin snorted, "What else do you have to say now? Miss Nine actually knows that you are the murderer, and she set up this situation just to convince you. Now that the stolen goods have been stolen, you can still talk about Song Rou's death and You have nothing to do?"
Wei Yanzhi took a deep breath and frowned, "Since Miss Nine knows the truth, why bother to go through such a big trouble, she still remembers the lamphouse that almost killed her that night."
As he said that, Wei Yanzhi suddenly threw the gold paper in his hand aside, and he stood by the half-opened window sill, the thin sweat on his face dried up when the cold wind came, and he straightened his back, Wei Yanzhi's heart beat wildly. Gradually he became quiet, his expression was fixed, a cold light appeared in his eyes, Huo Huaixin shook his head when he saw him like this, "Wei Yanzhi, Song Rou has feelings for you, and for you, I put that stigma on your elder brother , your elder brother broke a leg because of her, but you cruelly killed Song Rou, and now, you don't even have any remorse?"
The corners of Wei Yanzhi's lips curved slightly, and a bleak smile appeared in his eyes, "Brother? He is the legitimate son of the Wei family. He is not my eldest brother. He was born with all the honor and favor. For so many years, I have done everything for him. A horse is just a leg, and what he owes me is more than a leg? My mother's life, what will he pay for it?"
At this point, a wet light suddenly flashed in the corner of Wei Yanzhi's eyes.
"I just met my mother. If he hadn't talked too much, Song Jingxi wouldn't have punished her to kneel in winter. If not, how could my mother have contracted cold and died of sudden illness?"
Song Jingxi is the name of the mistress of the Wei family. At this moment, Wei Yanzhi gritted his teeth and said it with a kind of bitter hatred. Huo Huaixin frowned, "You hate Mrs. Wei, but what does it have to do with Song Rou? Your mother's life is fate. , Song Rou's life is not life? What's more, she has a relationship with you and was pregnant with your child, how can you do anything to her?"
Wei Yanzhi didn't know what to think of, his eyes were in a daze for a moment, but then, he gritted his teeth and said with concern, "I don't want to kill her! I never wanted to kill her, but she insisted on forcing me..."
Wei Yan took a step back, his eyes were slightly red, but his voice became stern, "She is also a born noble lady, I don't know what I paid for today, she obviously has such a good marriage, but she is not satisfied, It’s fine if you’re not satisfied, but you also want to drag me into the water, I don’t want her to die, but she insists on—"
Wei Yanzhi spoke with his eyes wide open. Suddenly, he stopped speaking. He glanced at Huo Huaixin with a strange expression, then at Yanchi and the others, and suddenly smiled strangely, "You are lying to me—"
Huo Huaixin frowned, "What did you lie to you?"
Wei Yanzhi stood up straight, slightly relieved, and said firmly, "You don't have that letter."
Huo Huaixin narrowed his eyes, "If you don't have the letter, how can you set up a trap to catch you?"
Wei Yanzhi listened, shaking his head and laughing, "No...you don't have the letter, so you set up a game. If you have the letter, the magistrate will take great pains to invite me into the game. The letter is just a cover. You are trying to trick me into telling the truth that day. That's all."
Wei Yanzhi glanced at the Yijinjian that was thrown on the ground, "After all, you still have no evidence."
Wei Yanzhi raised his jaw proudly. Although he had been tricked, how could Huo Huaixin determine that he was the murderer without evidence? He just stole a letter that never existed...
Huo Huaixin sneered when he heard the words, "What you said just now is evidence, Wei Yanzhi, you hate Wei Qizhi and Mrs. Wei, and urged Song Rou to blame Wei Qizhi for getting married. She may still want to get entangled with you because of the past, and you are afraid that the past will be exposed, so you killed her in a fit of anger!"
Wei Yan raised his jaw, and at this moment, he looked completely unafraid of Huo Huaixin.
"Just speculate, magistrate, but you can't find evidence anyway."
Enraged by Wei Yanzhi's contemptuous attitude, Huo Huaixin waved his hand, "Take him back, let him taste the taste of the prison in the government office, and see if his mouth is as tough as the whip of the prison!"
Qi Lin responded, and stepped forward to grab Wei Yanzhi. Wei Yanzhi stood upright, with a sneer on his face, showing no sign of fear at all. However, Wei Yanzhi looked at him and stretched out his hand actively, but his expression was still fearless.
Qi Lin looked angry, and with a "click", he handcuffed Wei Yanzhi's hand, and pushed him again, "Go!"
Wei Yanzhi was staggered by Qi Lin's push. After standing still, he walked out in front of Huo Huaixin and the others with a calm expression. The charcoal fire was still roaring in the stove outside. Wei Yanzhi walked to the door, and Qi Lin opened it. As soon as the door opened, Wei Yanzhi saw Qin Wan and Yue Ning standing outside, and Princess Taichang was also standing outside the door supported by Jiang Shi.
It seems that everyone came together to set up a situation. Wei Yanzhi glanced at Yue Ning and then at Qin Wan. Their eyes met. There was a deep dark light in Wei Yanzhi's eyes. Qi Lin pushed him again, and Wei Yanzhi looked away. , walked in front of Qin Wan and his group, outside Dongyuan, there was already a government officer waiting, seeing Qi Lin bring someone out, he immediately stepped forward and arrested him.
In the yard, Princess Taichang sighed, "Wanting words harm people!"
As soon as the words fell, Huo Huaixin and the others came out of the house and shouted again, "Search, search for me! I don't believe that nothing can be found—"
Then, pointing to the side room, "Go, take the people inside away."
Qin Wan took two steps forward, because the door was wide open, the heat in the room overflowed, Qin Wan frowned and said, "My lord, look at this stove, Wei Yanzhi has been burning for so many days, it must be weird."
Huo Huaixin nodded when he heard the words, just as Qi Lin walked in outside, Huo Huaixin said, "Look at this stove."
Qi Lin responded, and brought a few yamen servants into the house. On the other side, Wei Yanzhi's bodyguard was grabbed from his sleep, and the two were sent out with a dazed expression. Softened, he was dragged out of Dongyuan without even shouting out his grievances. Huo Huaixin folded his hands in front of him, but sighed.
"If Wei Yanzhi is a stubborn one, I'm afraid it won't be easy to try with torture."
Qin Wan narrowed her eyes, "It's certain that he is the murderer, but now he still needs to explain the murder weapon, Song Rou's head has not been found, and the process of the crime cannot be ignored. trouble."
Huo Huaixin snorted softly, "I still don't believe it..."
Qin Wan and Yue Ning looked at each other, but they didn't speak. They looked at the prison cell. The punishment on Wei Qizhi might not be severe enough for Huo Huaixin. I'm afraid Wei Yanzhi can really bear it.
"My lord, I have searched the stove, and there is nothing unusual except for the charcoal fire!"
Just as he was thinking, Qi Lin came out from the inside. As soon as he said this, Huo Huaixin frowned, and Qin Wan and Yue Ning entered the room immediately. As soon as they entered the room, they saw that the outside was in a mess and the fire had been burned. Putting it out, all the charcoal inside was taken out, the stove was empty, and there was no other foreign matter, and the ashes underneath were also turned over by Qi Lin, and nothing was found, Qin Wan Mo pupils tightened, brows furrowed Twist deeply.
There was something strange about Wei Yanzhi's illness, and then there was a stove in this house. If the stove wasn't weird, what was so weird about it
Qin Wan turned around and went straight into the inner room. There was also a servant in the inner room. Right now, he was inspecting the things in the inner room. Qin Wan glanced around. Suddenly, he looked at the two swords hanging on the wall of the inner room. One is long and the other is short, with special markings on them.
Yue Ning came in from behind, "This is Wei Yanzhi's weapon. When he fought me earlier, he used this long sword. This is a famous sword. Although it is not on the list, it is also from Shuoxi Liang Shi's hand."
"Liang family? The Liang family from the sword-making family?"
Qin Wan reacted very quickly, but Yue Ning didn't expect Qin Wan to know this, so he nodded and said, "Exactly, this sword came from the Liang family. That's it, this sword is called Chengying, it is recorded in Liang's sword manual, Wei Yanzhi once said that this sword was a gift from the Duke's Mansion."
Qin Wan stepped forward, raised her hand and took down the Chengying sword. She pulled out the sword with a "crack", and a cold light made her eyes tremble. Yue Ning came forward, "How? people?"
Qin Wan nodded, and slowly drew out the long sword again. The moment he was drawn out, there was a soft sound of the sword.
Squinting his eyes slightly, Qin Wan glanced at the edge of the sword, and Yue Ning said, "This sword is three inches long. It is a rare blunt sword of the Liang family. The tip of the sword is shaped like a crescent moon. The light in the sword is powerful."
Qin Wan's eyes lit up slightly, "If... the sword edge leaves a wound on a person, you only need to find out the three-inch blunt sword to know which sword it is, right?"
Yue Ning instantly understood what Qin Wan meant, and her eyes couldn't help but light up slightly.
"That's right. Although the Liang family has more than one three-inch blunt-edged sword, there are not many of them handed down in the world today. Chengying is one, and the other swords are all famous swords. Just do a little research. Know who and where the owner is."
The corners of Qin Wan's lips curled up, "So that's Wei Yanzhi's reason..."
As he said, he walked out with the Chengying sword. Huo Huaixin was talking to Yue Qiong outside. When he saw Qin Wan coming out holding the sword, he hurriedly looked over. After Qin Wan finished speaking, Huo Huaixin's eyes lit up, "It is indeed reason!"
Qin Wan handed the sword to Huo Huaixin, "Give this to your lord, unfortunately, no other evidence has been found."
Huo Huaixin took over the Chengying Sword. He knew what Qin Wan said was that Song Rou's head hadn't been settled yet, but tonight had already been considered a great harvest. Although Huo Huaixin was a little anxious, he was still satisfied after all. Now that Wei Yanzhi was affirmed As a murderer, he has a lot of ways to make him speak. In his hands, he has never seen someone who is really not afraid of death and refuses to speak.
"Ninth girl, don't worry, Huo hasn't started the interrogation yet. When the interrogation starts, you don't have to worry about Wei Yanzhi's silence. Tonight's round has confirmed Wei Yanzhi's identity as the murderer. Huo is already at ease. As long as he doesn't catch the wrong person, Huo will let people It is still safe to speak, the hour is over, the nine girls and the princess go back with the Taichang princess, and when there is news, I will let you know."
He said to Princess Taichang and said, "It's late at night, your health is important."
Princess Taichang didn't have to come, but she hasn't experienced such a situation for many years, she still got it on a whim, and now there is a temporary result, Princess Taichang doesn't have to hold on, she nodded immediately and said, "Okay, you and Yue Qiong Take care of the aftermath, I will go back first."
As soon as these words came out, Qin Wan and Yue Ning immediately supported the Taichang Princess. On the other side, Wei Yanzhi went over to thank Yan Chi again, "Thanks to His Highness for sending someone here to watch, if those useless servants in the government office Come on, most likely something will go wrong.”
Qin Wan walked out and looked back. Among the bright lights of Dongyuan, Bai Feng was standing beside Yan Chi. What Yan Chi has done over the past few days, although others are imposing and attract people's attention, they can do things quietly and tightly. For such a person, there is no harm in being his friend, but if he accidentally becomes his enemy, But it was about to suffer.
Walking out of Dongyuan, Princess Taichang sighed, "It's not easy for anyone in a high position. Although the Wei family boy is not a high position, but his background is such that he must be cautious for half his life to be able to get to where he is today." In exchange for flattery, the love with Song Rou may be his means, or it may be his sincerity, it doesn't matter, the important thing is that Song Rou hindered him in the end."
Saying so, Princess Taichang sighed again, "The deepest desire can always arouse the deepest hatred, even if this person was once a close pillow... So, the words of desire harm people."
The word desire harms people. Princess Taichang said this sentence just now, and now she can't help but admire it. People naturally have seven emotions and six desires, but if they are controlled by a certain desire, they will naturally become hideous.
"The Wei family kid's mother was killed by Mrs. Wei. At that time, he knew that in Mrs. Wei's eyes, the lives of those who hindered her were insignificant. When he came to Song Rou, he would either lose his head in anger or harbor hatred In my heart, if Song Rou hindered him, then her life would be insignificant. Usually, people with good fortune are not easy to have evil intentions. It is often those who have suffered more pain in ordinary days and turn to murder others. This is The helplessness of the world."
Princess Taichang said as she walked, the voice of vicissitudes was infected by the coolness of the autumn night, Qin Wan also felt a sense of sadness, everything in the world has a cause and effect, Wei Yanzhi's murder, of course, did not happen overnight.
Qin Wan had seen many cases in the past, but Princess Taichang was not. However, she used her half-life experience to explain the cause and effect of Wei Yanzhi's trip in one word. Qin Wan listened silently, feeling extremely taught.
Yue Ning also turned serious, and asked softly, "But grandma, everyone has a choice..."
Princess Taichang smiled and shook Yue Ning's hand, "Yes, everyone has a choice, if Wei Yanzhi can stand up when Song Rou is found pregnant, maybe the rest of his life will be very miserable, but maybe he will There are other results, or, when he was in Shili Temple, he didn't attack Song Rou, things are always different, the same encounter, but different choices, some people do good, some people do evil, this is deep and complicated Human nature, you guys, no matter what you encounter in the future, you must not lose your good heart."
"Yes, grandma, Ning'er knows."
"Princess Taichang, don't worry, Guan'er understands."
While speaking, she had already arrived in front of the Taichang Princess's courtyard. The Taichang Princess held Qin Wan and Yue Ning's hands and laughed, "I can't be more relieved about you two. Okay, you guys also go back and rest."
Qin Wan and Yue Ning both resigned from Princess Taichang before turning around and walking back.
Qin Wan bent his lips and said, "It's strange that the Anyang Marquis Mansion has survived for generations. The old Marquis who chose the Taichang Princess as his daughter-in-law was a generation of famous ministers who will last forever, and then the Taichang Princess and then the Marquis , the family style of the Hou Mansion is still undefeated."
The corners of Yue Ning's lips raised, "When you say that, I'm going to boast. It was my grandmother's intention to leave the capital. Back then, the Yue family's army had just won a battle, and the limelight was even greater. Grandfather and father have nothing to reward. Going forward, the king is about to be crowned, and at this moment, grandma is leaving the capital to come to Jinzhou, that's how it is, the Holy Majesty has never doubted the Hou's Mansion for so many years."
Having said this, Yue Ning snorted again, "But this marriage, the Holy Majesty, after listening to the concubine Song's words, actually used such a scandal to disgust the Hou's mansion. Grandma will definitely not take this matter lightly!"
Qin Wan nodded, "No matter how poor the family is, as long as there is an upright, intelligent, diligent and unyielding mistress, it will definitely not be completely defeated, not to mention the state of mind of the Taichang princess who is clean-up in the Hou's mansion. The Hou Mansion will naturally prosper for a long time, and in my opinion, the Hou Mansion will only get better and better for at least five generations to come."
Yue Ning laughed, "I borrowed your good words—"
The two walked while talking, and soon arrived at the gate of Yue Ning's courtyard. Before the two of them could enter the door, they saw a little maid hurriedly coming out of it, almost bumping into Qin Wan and Yue Ning. .
"Lvjing, what's the matter with you?!"
Lvqi shouted lightly, and the little girl named Lvjing immediately knelt down on the ground.
"Miss and Ninth Miss, please forgive me, slaves deserve to die."
Yue Ning frowned, "Okay, okay, don't talk about damn it all day, come out in such a hurry, what happened?"
Lvjing stood up, and said with red eyes, "The jade pendant that miss gave to the servant girl last time is gone."
Yue Ning raised her eyebrows, "Did I lose it or was it stolen?"
Lvjing hurriedly said, "I'm afraid that the servant accidentally lost it. The servant took off the jade pendant when changing clothes today. Later, she took the clothes to wash, and when she came back, she found that the jade pendant was gone. The servant thought, very happy." It is possible that it was wrapped in clothes alone and fell by the well, and the servants are going to look for it right now."
Yue Ning couldn't help laughing when she heard that, "Okay, don't be jealous, go look for it first, if you can't find it, I'll give you another one when you come back."
Lvjing was overjoyed, thanked him hurriedly and went to Huanxiyuan.
From this side, Qin Wan said, "It's so nice for the Princess to treat me—"
Yue Ning raised her lips, "They are all daughters' families, and they all left their mothers at a certain age to work in the house. It's pitiful when you think about it. Usually, they are very dedicated in their work in my yard, so naturally I will treat them well."
After the words were settled, Lu Qi said, "Miss Nine, I don't know, the princess is too considerate to the servants, no, it's okay if you can't find Lvjing's jade pendant, the princess is the best slave I have ever seen Master."
After saying this, Fu Ling in the back was unwilling, "It's fine with my young lady, she even taught me to study medicine."
Lu Qi was really surprised when he heard the words, most of the ordinary masters treat their servants well in terms of food, clothing and money, but Qin Wan is different, teaching medicine, to put it lightly, this is a knowledge that can make him independent...
Yue Ning was the first to laugh, "Then I can't compare to your master..."
Fu Ling looked proud, but Qin Wan, who was walking beside her, suddenly stopped with a serious expression.
Yue Ning was taken aback, "What's wrong?"
Qin Wan raised her eyes, "Where did that little girl say she was going to find Yu Pendant just now?"
Yue Ning and Lvqi looked at each other, and Yue Ning said, "Go to the well of Huanxi Yuan..."
Qin Wan narrowed her eyes and murmured, "The jade pendant was wrapped in clothes, and the clothes were washed by the well, and the jade pendant fell by the well..." Saying this, Qin Wan suddenly raised his head, "I knew!"
"Know what?!"
Yue Ning hurriedly asked, but on this side, Qin Wan was already striding towards Dongyuan with her skirt in hand.
"I know why the oddity of the stove has not been found out."
Yue Ning was taken aback, "Why didn't you find out the weirdness of the stove? Didn't you check it just now?"
Qin Wan walked away in a hurry, followed by Yue Ning, Lvqi and Fu Ling also hurriedly followed, but Qin Wan said anxiously, "Because Yu Zhui'er is in the clothes, and the clothes are by the well..."
Yue Ning didn't understand for a moment, she turned her head to look, but saw that Fuling and Lvqi were also confused.
Qin Wan knew that the three of them didn't understand, but she didn't have time to say more. She almost trotted all the way to Dongyuan. From a distance, Qin Wan saw the yamen outside the courtyard walking this way. Huo Huaixin and Yue Qiong , follow the team at the end.
"Master Zhifu, Lord Hou—"
Huo Huaixin was talking to Yue Qiong, when Qin Wan suddenly appeared, Huo Huaixin frowned and said, "Miss Jiu? Didn't you go back and rest? Why are you here again?"
Qin Wan ran up to Huo Huaixin, panting, "Master Zhifu, I know the weirdness of the stove! Hui, go and see Hui..."
Huo Huaixin blinked, "Hui has seen it."
Qin Wan shook her head, "No, look at the ashes outside! In the yard!"
Huo Huaixin was slightly stunned, but Qin Wan was already heading towards the gate of the courtyard. Huo Huaixin hurriedly turned to follow. As soon as he reached the gate of the courtyard, he saw Qin Wan running to the ashes in the corner of the courtyard.
Yue Qiong and Yue Ning followed behind, and they were startled when they saw this scene.
On the other side, Qin Wan rolled up his cuffs. Turning his eyes, he saw a pair of iron tongs thrown beside the ashes. Qin Wan didn't mind the dirt on them. ran in.
"Miss, let the servants do these things..."
Qin Wan shook his head, "Just wait by your side."
Fu Ling looked a little anxious, but Qin Wan made up his mind to do it himself, Huo Huaixin strode forward, "Ninth Miss, you find—"
"found it!"
Before Huo Huaixin finished asking, Qin Wan's calm voice sounded excited again!
When everyone looked at it, they saw a white lump turned out by Qin Wan from the ashes. The white lump was gray in color and the size of half a palm. Yue Ning felt a little uncomfortable looking at it, and asked, " What is this… "
Qin Wan put the white piece aside, and said in a cool voice, "If I'm not mistaken, it was Song Rou's skull at that time."
"What?!" Huo Huaixin opened his eyes wide, "Song Rou's skull?!"
Qin Wan nodded while digging the ashes, "Yes! I always thought there was something wrong with Wei Yanzhi's sudden ignition of the stove. I thought it was strange that I didn't find anything when I turned on the stove just now. Then I realized that it was impossible for Wei Yanzhi to leave the flaw so simple. In the furnace, he must have dealt with it, and then I thought of the ashes in the corner of the yard!"
After a slight pause, Qin Wan said again, "These things will be cleaned up tomorrow morning, and there will be nothing left. Wei Yanzhi will get rid of Song Rou's head without anyone noticing it. At that time, We will never find Song Rou's head."
The corners of Huo Huaixin's lips moved slightly, but he didn't speak. Yue Ning and Yue Qiong beside him also had complicated expressions.
Wei Yanzhi is a smart person, but he didn't expect that Qin Wan would come to dig up the ashes, and Song Rou's head would disappear into the world without a sound.
Huo Huaixin's chest heaved a few times, and suddenly he ordered the servants outside, "What are you doing here in a daze, why don't you dig the ashes!"
After giving an order, Qi Lin immediately brought people forward, Fu Ling hurriedly pulled Qin Wan up, Qin Wan looked at the pile of ashes in front of him and said, "Where will the ashes in this yard be dumped? "
Yue Ning hurriedly said, "Go to the flower garden in the north! The gardeners over there will use ashes to mix the flower soil! The ashes from cooking, boiling water, etc. in the kitchens of all sizes in the house will be sent there..."
Qin Wan looked at Huo Huaixin, "Master Hou, I'm afraid I won't be able to rest tonight."
How much dust do all the kitchens and hot water rooms in the Hou Mansion have in a day? The ashes sent by Dongyuan are only a small part, and Song Rou's skull has been crushed. Turning over the skull in a mountain of ashes is equivalent to finding a needle in a haystack. It is really labor-intensive, but Huo Huaixin can He doesn't dislike the clerks who live too much, even his own wants to go to the ashes!
"Captain Qi, you take people to the flower garden, Lord Hou, I'm afraid you still need help from the people of the Hou Mansion, let's try to find all the bones that should be found tonight..."
Yue Qiong was naturally obliged, and Qin Wan added, "Wei Yanzhi's stove has been burning for nearly six days, and he wants to burn the flesh and bones to pieces. It will take at least three days. We need to find the last three days." gray."
Yue Qiong nodded and hurriedly went out to give instructions to Yang Xi.
There was a lot of commotion tonight, Yue Qing and the others had originally gone back to rest, but when they heard the commotion in the mansion, they got up again, not long after, even Yan Chi arrived at the flower garden, glanced around and saw Qin Wan and Yue Ning Standing at the very edge, not far away in the flower garden, the servants were rummaging through several piles of ashes, while Huo Huaixin stood aside and urged him from time to time!
"Look carefully! Don't let the small pieces go!"
"Don't let other things get mixed in!"
Yan Chi raised his eyebrows and walked towards Qin Wan and the others.
On this side, Yue Qing said rightly, "So, Nine Girls are going to fight later?"
As Yue Qing said, he glanced at the broken bones in the tray beside him, "The bones are all broken like this, how do we put them together?"
If a complete skull were placed in front of everyone, everyone's expressions would turn pale with fright, but now that the whole skull has been calcined and smashed by Wei Yanzhi, and seeing the bones piece by piece, everyone no longer has any fear.
Yan Chi was approaching, and couldn't help slowing down when he heard this question. He also wanted to know how Qin Wan would fight.
Then Qin Wan said, "These bones belong to different parts. If they are too sporadic, they may not be able to be spelled out, but they may still be able to be spelled out." Having said that, Qin Wan looked at Yue Qing and said, "Maybe I will trouble the second son to find some bones. Fish gelatin?"
Yue Ning frowned at first, as if he was in trouble, but soon, his eyes lit up slightly, "Okay, it's almost dawn, I'll go to Baoqinzhai in the city, and within an hour, I will definitely give you the isinglass Take back-"
After Yue Qing finished speaking, he left. Yue Ning looked suspiciously at Yue Qing's disappearing figure, "Isinglass? It seems to be used for carpentry? What is Second Brother doing in Baoqinzhai?"
Qin Wan smiled and said, "Isinglass is made from fish maw. It is very viscous and is not common. It can not only be used as glue, but also has the effect of nourishing lean blood, strengthening the kidney and strengthening the foundation. When making glue, it is not common. It will only be used when making very exquisite furniture. In addition, fish gelatin is the best choice when making musical instruments such as qin, flute, drum and shengge. , Naturally, there will be isinglass.”
Yue Ning looked at Qin Wan in admiration, "How many books have you read, and how do you know so many strange things?"
Qin Wan smiled slightly, but before he could speak, Xiang Yanchi had already stepped forward.
"Nine Girls have read a wide range of books, even Yan Chi has never heard of some books."
As soon as these words came out, Qin Wan's heart skipped a beat, but when she turned her eyes, she met Yan Chi's shining eyes.
It was already late at night, and the dark clouds in the sky cleared away, and a crescent moon hung slantingly in the sky. The moonlight was quiet, although there were no stars, it made the dawn of this autumn night clear and bright, and Yan Chi's eyes, As if dyed by the moonlight, the bright lights around the garden caught his eyes, and at the same time, Qin Wan also entered.
"Qin Wan has only read a few miscellaneous books, so I dare not take His Highness's words." Qin Wan narrowed her eyes, and answered casually. Yan Chi's thoughts were deep, and he didn't know what he meant just now...
Yan Chi bent his lips, but looked at the bones that had been found in the tray. He picked up a piece casually, and he didn't think it was a human bone at all, "You know that every bone in this is from a human. where?"
Qin Wan glanced at the half-saucer-sized bone in Yan Chi's hand, narrowed his eyes slightly, "The one in your Highness's hand is the mandible."
Yan Chi raised his eyebrows, and looked at the bland bone in his hand, because it was smashed and the fractures were uneven, Yan Chi couldn't tell it was a human mandible, and Yue Ning on the side subconsciously touched it. After touching his chin, he felt a little scalp numb at this moment.
Yan Chi put down the bone in his hand, and chuckled, "The nine girls are among the top three Yan Chi has ever seen, regardless of their medical skills or autopsy skills, and the other two are all in their sixtieth year, and none of them At the same time, she has such accomplishments in medical skills and autopsy techniques, Nine Girls are worthy of the name of Immortal Doctor, Yan Chi admires her."
This praise made Qin Wan feel a little doubtful. Is Yan Chi's words a temptation or sincerity
I thought Yan Chi would continue to be in trouble, but after Yan Chi put down the bone, he stood aside, Qin Wan's heart pounded, and he said "I dare not take it" and stopped talking, only an excuse to see everyone find the bone and put it next to the ashes go.
As soon as Qin Wan left, Yue Ning raised her jaw and looked at Yan Chi, "What does Your Highness think of her?"
Yan Chi turned his eyes and glanced at Yue Ning, "What does the Princess want?"
Yue Ning sneered, "In your reply letter to the capital that day, it was written that the date of return was uncertain. Did someone urge His Highness to return to Beijing as soon as possible? His Highness is fine in Jinzhou, and I don't know why he stayed?"
Yan Chi withdrew his gaze, and turned to look at Qin Wan who was not far away, "Of course there is a reason."
Yue Ning looked at Yan Chi, and then at Qin Wan where Yan Chi's gaze was on. She frowned suddenly. She was a little annoyed in her heart. She always felt that Yan Chi was very evil, and she had even more sinister intentions towards Qin Wan. She wanted to say something, but seeing Yan Chi's expression, she couldn't say anything, not to mention their identities, she couldn't say anything about him.
Qin Wan didn't know how clever these two were. He just looked at how many broken bones they found. As the crescent moon sank and lowered and the sky became clearer, the bones in the tray were almost piled up into a hill.
At dawn, Qin Wan counted the bones in the tray and said, "Your Majesty, five teeth are missing, and everything else is pretty much the same. It's too fragmentary and it doesn't matter if you can't find them. Let's go to the front yard."
Huo Huaixin stayed up all night, and now his eyes were black and blue. Hearing this, he nodded hurriedly, first told Qi Lin to stay and continue looking, and then followed Qin Wan and the others to the front yard. A tray of broken bones was taken Qin Wan held it herself, but before she could take a few steps, a big hand stretched out from behind and took her tray over. Qin Wan saw that it was Yan Chi.
Raising his eyebrows, Qin Wan's suspicion rose again.
In the twilight of the morning, the ups and downs of Song Rou's case are about to pass. Everyone wants to know how Qin Wan assembled the broken bones into a human head. After Qin Wan entered the front yard to burn incense, Yue Qing took Isinglass is back!
In the main hall of the front yard, Qin Wan washed the bones on the table and laid them out one by one.
Yue Qing watched from the side, and couldn't help but say, "How does Nine Girls plan to fight?"
"Scratch the brain first, and then the face."
Qin Wan's face was serious, and as she spoke, she had already picked out the two largest bones. She applied fish glue on the sides of the bones, and carefully put the two bones together. The fish glue is very sticky, The bones were tightly joined together. Qin Wan lowered his head to search, and after a while, he picked another one, and put them together one by one. Soon, a dome-shaped skull cap took shape. The eyes of Yan Chi and Yue Qiong were amazed, and Huo Huaixin's eyes widened in amazement. Yue Ning looked at it with admiration...
Putting together the skull cover, and then joining the frontal bone and occipital bone, Qin Wan looked serious and meticulous. Although there were many people in the room, no one dared to disturb her. You could hear the needle dropping quietly. Then, the sphenoid bone, temporal bone, and ethmoid bone were put together one by one. Then, a skull with a basically complete calvaria and cranial cavity showed its rudimentary form. Qin Wan did not relax at all, only distinguishing the small broken bones one by one. After less than half an hour, the skull can basically be seen to be a person looks like...
Qin Wan was not in a hurry, but no one in the room dared to ask and urge him. Qin Wan connected the brain and face, and then patched up the scattered bones left in the tray little by little. After half an hour, there were only a few nail-sized bone fragments left in the tray with nowhere to go. Qin Wan straightened up and exhaled.
"The hyoid bone and the inferior turbinate bone are only half, so I won't put them together for the time being. There are still a few remaining teeth, which are irrelevant to the case..." Qin Wan finished speaking slowly, and carefully glanced at the piece he had put together. a head.
Because of the lack of many broken bones, there are still some small seams on the skull that have not been completed. Others seem to think that the skull is full of scars, but Qin Wan paused and said, "You can see it under the occipital bone on the back of the deceased." A one-inch-long half-moon-shaped wound was probably caused by a sharp weapon with a one-inch-wide blade, and since the wound was in the bone, it can be directly compared with the murder weapon, and it is tentatively speculated that it was injured by Wei Yanzhi's Chengying."
"This injury can cause the deceased to become paralyzed immediately, but it is not fatal." After a slight pause, Qin Wan frowned and said, "That is to say, the murderer attacked the deceased first from behind, and then, when the deceased was still conscious, Time to cut off the dead man's head."
