Nightwatcher Chapter 15: Huang Xiaorou


Chapter 246 Huang Xiaorou

"Female Corpse?"

The little **** was waiting at the gate of the palace anxiously. There must be something urgent. The only intersection between Xu Qi'an and him is the Fufei case. Then the female corpse must be related to the Fufei case.

Xu Qi'an squinted his eyes and moved in his heart: "Is the missing palace lady in the Fufei case?"

The little **** was taken aback, and was sincerely convinced: "The grown-ups are really clever calculations, and the slaves admire them."

This sentence is both a compliment and a heartfelt message. After two consecutive days of supervision, the little father-in-law discovered that Xu Qi'an was a famous arrester who looked exaggerated but was too intelligent.

This is not a magical calculation, this is a very simple reasoning...Xu Qi'an nodded and said: "Take me to see the corpse."

The **** is busy leading the way.

"Which well was the body found?"

"Crab Pavilion's backyard."

"Crab Pavilion?"

Xu Qi'an said something bad name.

"The crab pavilion is where the palace ladies live." The **** replied.

The court ladies are also divided into three, six or nine grades. The high-status court ladies are called female officials, and they even have ranks and titles, such as Jieyu, Beauty, Talent, Royal Maid, Chosen and so on.

This kind of palace lady has the hope of being lucky by the emperor, and it is an instant success. Of course, during the reign of Emperor Yuan Jing, none of them should think of making a splash.

The second class is the court lady who serves her concubine.

The lowest class is the handyman who lives in the big dormitory.

Xie Ge is a dormitory for court ladies.

As I walked, I quickly came to the morgue in the palace, in a secluded courtyard to the south, where the dead, sick, and accidental corpses in the palace were parked.

On the simple bed, a slightly bloated corpse lay on the bed.

"Go and get the knife. I want to dissect the corpse." Xu Qi'an ordered.

He was a little bit happy about hunting. When he was a errand in the Yamen in his previous life, he was often sent to observe the forensic anatomy and act as an assistant. Accumulated a lot of professional knowledge and experience.

From the initial panic and vomiting to the slow acceptance, and then the sluggish attack, Xu Qi'an vaguely found that he liked anatomy.

When I came to this world, I encountered many cases, but there were not many opportunities for anatomy.

"Fu Concubine is the woman of the old emperor, I can't touch it. I can always break my stomach with this little palace lady...If it can be fresher."

While thinking, he untied the court lady's clothes.

"Dog minion, dog minion, why don't you send someone to notify me when you enter the palace..."

Princess Lin'an’s cheerful voice came from outside, and then, a red shadow rushed and stopped at the door.

"What are you doing?"

Lin'an looked at Xu Qi'an holding the female body's bellyband in his hand, the bright smile on his face solidified.

Behind him, Huai Qing in a fluttering white skirt followed the threshold of entry, glanced at Xu Qi'an, and then his eyes fell on his apron.

It's a bit embarrassing...Xu Qi'an doesn't change his face: "Examine the corpse and plan to dissect it."

"Don't touch such disgusting things."

She stomped her feet again and again. She glanced at the naked upper body of the female corpse, then immediately retracted her eyes.

In this regard, Princess Huaiqing took the same view and gave a suggestion: "Why not let Wu Zuo do it?"

Because I like to do this... Xu Qi'an shook his head solemnly and explained seriously: "Your Majesty, you know that you must be hands-on in humble ministry, be meticulous in doing things by yourself, and you won’t be able to use others. In the eyes of others Here, this is a good quality of diligence, but in the eyes of a humble position, it is really not worth mentioning."

Mounting and mounting admire Xu Qi'an's work attitude very much. Huai Qing was expressionless, as if he did not believe his nonsense.

"Your Highnesses will go back to drink tea first, wait a while, don't stay here." Xu Qi'an wanted to drive people.

Huaiqing didn't leave after hearing this, but Lianbu walked in front of the female corpse instead.

"The body was salvaged last night. After recognizing Huang Xiaorou, he was taken away by Father Chang." Huaiqing said:

"I want to stay and have a look, maybe there will be clues in the body."

Huaiqing seems to be very interested in brainstorming, playing chess, revising history, and now solving crimes... Xu Qi'an turned his head and silently looked at the beautiful eyes of the princess.

Huaiqing's eyes narrowed slightly, and he stared at him. The voice has the texture of ice crashing, which is very pleasant: "Huh?"

A simple "um" implies: little brother, do you have an opinion?

Xu Qi'an retracted his gaze, no longer looking at the princess's flawless face, turned his head and said, "Your Royal Highness."

Biaobi took a look at Huaiqing, hesitated and said: "What's the matter here, I will stay too."

"Okay!"

Xu Qi'an stripped the female body happily.

The mounting face turned red, then white, hiding her face and leaving.

"Your Highness, won't you stay here to see it?" Xu Qi'an called.

Biaobian covered his face, screaming like a mosquito: "Go, go..."

Huaiqing glanced at the female corpse. Although it was hidden well, Xu Qi'an still saw the embarrassment in the clear eyes like a cold pool.

This kind of embarrassment is like when Xu Qi'an was watching TV with his parents before, and it happened to be broadcasted to the hero and heroine in bed

It has a perfect appearance and top-level configuration, and the kernel is very powerful, that is, the number of kilometers is almost zero... Xu Qi'an commented in his heart.

If you compare Huaiqing to a top sports car, just out of the factory.

Then the mounting is a model car, the appearance is not plausible, the core...it is hard to say.

However, for men, women who are coquettish, charming, and not too smart are more popular.

"What is this?"

Huaiqing found a section of pale yellow silk from the underclothes of the court lady Huang Xiaorou, embroidered with a red lotus flower and a line of small characters:

The 31st year of Yuanjing Spring.

"Before she died, she kept it personally, indicating that it was extremely important to her."

Huaiqing looked at Xu Qi'an, seeming to be verifying, and said: "What do you think of Lord Xu?"

Xu Qi'an gave an "um" cry.

The corners of Huaiqing's mouth are slightly tilted.

"His Royal Highness is so smart, why not come and see this female corpse, what can you see?"

Huai Qing couldn't help but glance at him. Xu Qi'an was about to test her posture. He couldn't help converging the arc of his mouth, and an emotion of reluctance surged.

"According to the degree of whiteness and swelling of the body, she didn't plunge into the well after the incident." Huaiqing made a judgment.

"Within two days." Xu Qi'an gave a more accurate reply.

"There was no obvious trauma on her body, so she should have died by drowning. Maybe she was knocked out." After speaking, the elegant and refined princess looked at Xu Qi'an subconsciously.

Seeing that he was expressionless and did not reply, the princess felt a little unhappy. When she lowered her head, she gently curled the corner of her mouth.

"Are there any more?" Xu Qi'an asked.

Huai Qing thought for a while and shook his head slightly.

"You are missing the most important step. Usually when examining female corpses, even if there are obvious signs of death, never forget to check..."

Xu Qi'an raised his eyebrows towards Huaiqing, showing a hey smile.

Huai Qing was stunned for a moment, and then, seeing Xu Qi'an's gaze falling on the taboo, as smart as her, she immediately understood.

Huh....

The fair face immediately turned red, and the eldest princess Liu's eyebrows were erect, and she gritted her teeth: "Xu Ningyan, you dare to molest the palace!"

Xu Qi'an really admitted his mistake with a sincere attitude: "The humble duty has no intention of offending, and the princess forgive me."

Huaiqing turned to his side and said that he would not accept his apology, and was very angry.

To flirt with the proud and cold princess is much more fulfilling than flirting with Lin'an....... Huaiqing's amorous feelings are different........Xu Qi'an coughed and said:

"It's true that she was drowning, but she didn't drown in a well, she was held to death by being held in the water."

"Why do you see it?" Huai Qing asked, not believing, turning his head.

Well, as long as she discusses academic issues, she will not be angry for the time being.... Female academic bullies also have the weaknesses of female academic bullies... Xu Qi’an silently noted it down, without any expression on the surface. Explained:

"Look at her face is purple-red, normal drowning, even pale and swollen. Only when someone is pressed in the water, the posture is upside down, and the blood flows back to the head when she dies, the face will be congested."

Huaiqing frowned and thought.

"One more thing," Xu Qi'an grabbed the female corpse's wrist, "Look at her hand, clenched into a fist, which is consistent with the characteristics of drowning. But look closely, there is no sand or moss in her nails." /

Huaiqing looked at it with concentration, and the nails were really clean.

"This shows that she did drown, but not in a well?" she asked.

"His Royal Highness is so smart. Compared with you, His Royal Highness Lin'an is just a younger sister." Xu Qi'an arched his hands and expressed admiration.

Although he knew he was complimenting himself, Huaiqing still felt comfortable.

People love to listen to good things, and saints are no exception. What's more, Princess Huaiqing is always proud. On the surface, she will dismiss flattery, but she will be secretly refreshed.

Huai Qing made a reserved "um".

"So, she was killed." Her Royal Highness the Princess added later.

Xu Qi'an nodded, and at the same time he heard the faint footsteps, looked up at the door, and saw the **** holding the knife for dissecting the corpse coming from a distance.

Rapid footsteps rushed to the threshold. The eunuch's first reaction when he saw the female corpse was a sharp cry: Ah~

"My little father-in-law hasn't seen a woman, come here, this officer will give you a physiology lesson." Xu Qi'an teased like an old bastard.

The little **** ignored him, a little embarrassed, lowered his head, and put the knife on the long table.

There are six knives of different sizes and thicknesses, wrapped in thick linen.

Xu Qi'an wanted to lick his lips to express his inner expectation, but also felt that this posture was too horrible to show up in front of Huaiqing, so I had to bear it.

Really, when I am doing some fun hobbies, I don’t like people watching... He chose a single-edged sharp knife the size of a dagger, and the tip of the knife touched the female corpse’s throat and opened the throat. .

A stream of slightly turbid water came out.

"Oh..."

The tender red flesh was exposed, and the little **** covered his mouth and couldn't help retching.

Xu Qi'an then changed a big knife, opened his chest, and opened his lungs...

"Oh..." the **** escaped.

This can't hold it anymore? Sure enough, giving a physiology class to the **** is nothing but pure talk.

Huaiqing's jade-like face showed a vivid expression-horror and disgust. Eyelashes trembled and glanced away.

"There was also water in the lungs. The cause of death can be confirmed. It was drowning." Xu Qi'an put down the knife.

Huai Qing nodded and said: "Is there anything else to check?"

"No, let's leave, Your Highness." Xu Qi'an said, suddenly "Hey".

Huaiqing, who had turned his head and was about to leave, looked back and suddenly frowned, "What are you doing?"

Xu Qi'an is playing with the ru room on the left of the female corpse, at least in Huaiqing's opinion.

"She was injured." Xu Qi'an frowned, and when she was speaking, she turned the ru room up so that Huaiqing could see the situation under her breasts.

Huai Qing was stunned.

This palace lady named Huang Xiaorou has a deep scar under her left breast, which is facing the heart.

She immediately knew that she was wrong to blame Xu Qi'an, and she also understood his doubts:

How could a palace lady suffer such a dangerous injury? The strange thing is that he still survived?

Xu Qi'an spread out the burlap again, holding the largest knife, and cutting open the female corpse's chest along the scar.

Huaiqing looks like he wants to see but is afraid of being hot.

Xu Qi'an took off the heart, squinted for a moment, and said thoughtfully: "From the scar, the wound is deep, and the weapon should be scissors or other sharp objects. Having touched the heart, she should have died of a lot of blood loss."

Huaiqing nodded, looked out the door, and analyzed: "The medicine that can heal this kind of wound can only be used by the queen mother and the concubine of the imperial concubine.

"If the rest of the people need a pill to save their lives, they have to get permission from the mother, or they have been rewarded by the emperor, and they don’t need to use them from the warehouse."

Of course, the princes and princes are not included in the "others" she said.

The two left the morgue. There was a well in the yard. Xu Qi'an poured a bucket of clean water and washed his hands carefully.

Then, he scrubbed the piece of yellow silk found on the female body a few times and spread it out to dry by the well.

"Sell one of the servants who took charge of the morgue. The corpse in it is still useful to the officer. Send it to the ice cellar." Xu Qi'an sent the **** away.

"Xu Ningyan, help the palace with a bucket of water." Princess Huaiqing stood alive.

According to her name, Xu Qi'an judged that she was in a good mood at the moment. When she was polite and unfamiliar, she called Lord Xu. When he was angry, he called Xu Ningyan.

At this moment, Huaiqing's tone is definitely not angry, so this Xu Ningyan sound is a bit like calling a friend.

Xu Qi'an brought her a bucket of water, Huaiqing squatted down, raised her long sleeves, and dipped her white hands in the water, with slender and well-proportioned fingers.

The little hands are so beautiful... he said to himself.

After Huaiqing soaked his hands, he took out the Jinpa to wipe off the water stains, and said: "My palace will take you to the imperial pharmacy."

Xu Qi'an was about to nod his head. At this moment, a thought suddenly appeared in his heart, why would he want to throw his body into the crab pavilion?

In the imperial palace, there are less to say but there are counts*, and there are more hidden ones, such as the cold palace, such as this well in the morgue.

"Let's go to the crab court first."

Lin'an in the distance saw the two come out, greeted them with a brisk step, and said: "What have you found?"

"It did have some gains." Xu Qi'an told her the findings of the autopsy. Lin'an nodded while listening, her small face was very focused, but after Xu Qi'an finished speaking, her attention immediately shifted. It was obvious that the left ear went in and out of the right ear.

Lin'an pointed to the light yellow silk hanging by the well, and said in surprise: "Dog minion, does the lotus on this look like you..."

Before speaking, Xu Qi'an suddenly screamed, clutching his head and rolling all over the floor.

Biaobi and Huaiqing were taken aback, and said eagerly: "What's the matter with you?"

"Head, my head hurts..." Xu Qi'an hugged his head in pain, letting his mink cap fall down, revealing his bald head, showing that he was really suffering from a splitting headache.

"You wait, the palace will go to the imperial doctor immediately." Biao Biao stamped his feet anxiously. Turning around, twisting the water snake's waist and ran away.

Princess Huaiqing saw that her disgusting sister was gone, so she didn't put on airs, squatted down beside him, and held her pulse: "My palace is a little familiar with medicine..."

As soon as I touched the pulse, it was indeed beating very quickly, and Xu Tonggong's heartbeat must have intensified at this moment.

"His Royal Highness..." Xu Qi'an held Huaiqing's tenderness and said painfully: "Since the humble position stepped into the realm of refining the gods, I have always had headaches. Wei Gong said that it was the cause of the agitation of the soul. Whenever it is uncertain, the soul will leave the body and die."

Huai Qing was shocked. She didn't even know about it, so she didn't immediately withdraw her little hand.

When Biaoxiang ordered the guards to ask for an imperial doctor and returned to the yard, he found Xu Qi'an patted the dust on his body unchanged.

The disgusting Huai Qing squatted by the barrel to wash his hands.

"Are you okay?" Mounting said in amazement.

"It's okay, it's a pain, it will be fine in a while." Xu Qi'an waved his hand with a tired expression.

Huh... almost overturned, but fortunately I was quick to respond. Otherwise, if I let the sisters know that I wrote them the same love letter and gave them the same lotus petals, Huaiqing can't bear it, and the mounting can't bear it....The goodwill will definitely fall to the bottom... ...Xu Qi'an did a beautiful job, not only holding the steering wheel, but also holding Huaiqing's little hand...He cheered for himself in his heart.

Huaiqing lowered his head and did not speak, his small hands were pinched red, as if the temperature of Xu Qi'an still remained.

Biaobian looked at him suspiciously.

.........

The Crab Pavilion is on the west side of the imperial palace, far away from the palace where the concubines gather. It is a large courtyard.

At this hour, the maids had already left the crab pavilion and went to work everywhere in the palace. There is only one maternal in charge, lying on a big chair basking in the early spring morning sun.

The age spots on her face are clear in the sun, her body is out of shape, her hair is gray, and a hosta is simply inserted.

"Mrs. Rong, Ms. Rong..."

The little **** yelled a few times, and the old mother woke up quietly.

Mrs. Rong? !

Xu Qi'an's childhood memories were recalled, and a famous line appeared involuntarily in his mind:

The emperor, do you remember Mother Rong by the Daming Lake?

"The two are down." The **** said.

Mother Rong took a closer look, and she was indeed the two most beautiful princesses in the palace, coming together.

She got up at an agile speed that was not suitable for her age, and she saluted and shouted: "The old slave has seen the two majesty."

Huaiqing looked at her and said: "My palace accompanied Mrs. Xu to investigate the case. It is about the female corpse caught from the well today. Say what you know."

Mrs. Rong nodded. She should be.

Seeing this, Xu Qi'an was no longer silent, and asked: "Who caught the body and when was it discovered?"

"Xiaoyu discovered it. This morning, she went to the well to fetch water. She noticed that the bucket fell into the water. It was a little dull. She lay down at the mouth of the well for a long time. Hey, it turned out to be a corpse." very excited.

Xu Qi'an pointed to the stone well under the locust tree: "Is that one?"

"Yes."

He walked to the well and looked inside. The shaft was deep, his sight dim, and the well water was like a mirror.

With the eyes of ordinary people, it really takes a long time to distinguish a body in such a dark well.

"No one found out yesterday?" Xu Qi'an frowned.

Huang Xiaorou's body was soaked in water for more than 24 hours.

"When I talk about it, I get angry. I found dead people in the well this morning. Those dead girls said, it's no wonder that the sound was weird when I was fetching water the day before yesterday..." Get angry, scolded:

"None of them pulled out their eyeballs and put them in quietly, causing the old slave to drink the dead water for two days."

Biaobian looked disgusted.

Xu Qi'an's mouth twitched: "Mother, do you know that Huang Xiaorou."

The old mother was taken aback: "Huang what?"

Xu Qi'an said: "Huang Xiaorou~IndoMTL.com~ Grandma's eyes widened: "What Xiaorou? "

Xu Qi'an said angrily: "I'm not asking you Ma Dongmei, you don't need to answer me like this."

The mother thought for a long time, and she suddenly realized: "The old slave just reconfirmed. Huang Xiaorou, the old slave recognizes, recognizes."

Huaiqing's eyes lit up and she realized the reason why Xu Qi'an wanted to come to Xie Pavilion.

What's the brain of this little gong? It turns so fast.

"Do you know her?" Xu Qi'an reminded: "She is the court lady beside Fu Fei, how can you know her."

..........

PS: Thanks to the leader of "Blue Shadow Tea" for the reward.

Change first and then change, help catch bugs, thank you.
