Chapter 181 Nine Ileum 13
There is only one Bo family with three ministers.
The Bo family only has one pair of siblings, and only one young master died.
When Bao Ruoyou left Zhao He's house, his steps were hurried. Hu Changqing saw something was wrong and knew that Bao Ruoyou was the daughter of the Bo family. He followed her with a hesitant look on his face, "Miss Bo." ,this matter..."
Bao Ruoyou stood still in front of the carriage, "You go back to the Yamen first. If Mr. Wu comes back, tell him about this and I will go home."
Bao Ruoyou's face was pale and his pupils were dull. When he spoke, he spoke quickly but neatly, which was particularly intimidating. Hu Changqing nodded nervously, but before he responded, Bao Ruoyou suddenly turned around and got on the carriage.
Uncle Liang drove the car very fast, and the carriage was bumpy during the speeding. Bao Ruoyou leaned on the cold side of the carriage, her heart about to jump out of her heart.
I heard that the child was only four years old, and he was still the young master of a high-ranking official's family.
They started out as a lost brother and sister.
My sister showed up on her own the next day, but her brother didn't come back.
Bao Ruoyou took a deep breath, trying to suppress her panicked heartbeat, but the influx of cold air only brought a dense tingling pain. Her body tensed up, and she clasped her hands together and pinched them on her fingertips. I didn’t even notice the red marks from my debut.
Zhao He was talking about no one else, but her and her brother Bao Lanzhou.
Her younger brother was born unexpectedly on the Lantern Festival in the 18th year of Jianhe's reign. This was the only image left in her mind. She had not returned to the capital for many years, and her deceased parents and younger brother gradually became blurred. Her half-father and half-mother completed her story. Due to the lack of family affection, I only occasionally wonder what kind of accident happened to my dearest brother and died.
She suddenly understood why Cheng Yunzhi did not allow her to investigate the case.
The carriage stopped at the door of Cheng's house. When Bao Ruoyou got out of the carriage, his hands and feet were weak. After entering the house, he went straight to the study to find Cheng Yunzhi. Cheng Yunzhi was drawing up a new recipe for the eldest princess. When he raised his eyes, his expression changed. Gentle, but when he saw Bao Ruoyou's expression, he knew something was wrong, "What's going on?"
Bao Ruoyou stepped forward and stood in front of the case, "My adoptive father didn't allow me to investigate this case at first, but because this case is very similar to the death of my younger brother many years ago?"
Cheng Yunzhi sat up straight and hesitated for a moment before saying, "Why do you ask?"
With Cheng Yunzhi's answer, Bo Ruoyou was extremely sure that what she had expected was right. She frowned tightly and recalled it carefully in her mind, "So when my brother had an accident, I and I disappeared together. Later, I came back by myself, but my brother never came back. Seven or eight days later, only...only my brother's body was found?"
Bo Ruoyou's heart throbbed as he asked this question, but he couldn't search for any scene in his mind. On the contrary, the more he thought about it, the more he felt a pain in his heart and a sudden pain in his temples. Cheng Yunzhi saw that her expression was wrong and stood up. He came over and grabbed her wrist, "Don't worry. Although this case reminds me of Lan Zhou's accident back then, what happened back then has long since passed..."
Cheng Yunzhi asked her to sit down, and Bo Ruoyou looked at him and said, "No, foster father, my brother's death was most likely not an accident."
Cheng Yunzhi was about to pour her a cup of warm tea, but when he heard this, he stopped and looked at Bo Ruoyou. Bo Ruoyou tensed his back and said: "The yamen has been checking old files these days. I want to find these Are there any similar cases in recent years? Although we couldn't find the file on my brother's case, we found another case. We asked an old government official from that time and he remembered his brother's case."
Cheng Yunzhi understood, "He said that Lan Zhou was harmed by others?"
Bo Ruoyou shook his head, "He mentioned the doubts about the case back then. The riverbank where his brother was found was two miles away from the place where he disappeared. There were a lot of dark rocks on that riverbed, and the adoptive father was also an adulterer. When we knew that the body was floating downstream, It's impossible not to leave traces on the body, but there are only some small wounds on the body of my brother, and there are no blood stains on the body. This is wrong."
Cheng Yunzhi put down the tea cup heavily, and when he sat down opposite Bo Ruoyou, his figure was a little stooped. There was a bright light in his eyes, and he looked at Bo Ruoyou with great pity, as if he was hesitating for something.
Bo Ruoyou asked decisively: "I was young at the time and had an illness, so I can't remember many things before I was five years old. When my brother had an accident, I only have a vague memory. Over the years, My adoptive father has always avoided mentioning the death of my younger brother and my father and mother. I always thought that my adoptive father was afraid that I would suffer, but in fact, what happened back then was more than that, right?"
There was mist in Bo Ruoyou's eyes, and there was a slight tremor in his voice. No matter how much Cheng Yunzhi couldn't bear it, he knew he couldn't hide it anymore. He sighed deeply, "Don't be anxious, listen carefully to your adoptive father and you." Say."
Bo Ruoyou still looked at Cheng Yunzhi intently, and Cheng Yunzhi spoke in a deep voice about what happened that year, "On the Lantern Festival that year, your father and mother took you two siblings to the Luohe River to see the lantern market. You You and your brother were lost at that time. There were a lot of people at that time. After you and your brother were lost, your father and mother immediately called many people to look for you. As long as you didn't leave the market, you would be found. But you disappeared in the end - —"
"I didn't know about this news until the second day. Your father and mother reported it to the government on the second day. Because something happened to the young master of the Bo family, the government was pretty neat and sent many yamen to investigate. That day In the afternoon, you collapsed on the roadside all dirty and dirty, and were discovered by servants at a nearby village. Soon the government officials found you."
"There was a thunderstorm that night, and you were soaked all over. You fell ill as soon as you came back. You had a high fever that wouldn't go away for five days. During the period, you woke up and just talked nonsense, as if you were sick or scared. Yes, your mother stayed at home to take care of you, and your father was running around outside the city. After seven days, Lan Zhou's body was found."
"There was an autopsy conducted at that time. The result of the autopsy was that they accidentally fell into the river. The body had been in the water for too long, and many of the traces left by the murderer were covered up. Even if your father and mother didn't want to believe it, they couldn't find any fatal injuries. Without any clues found along the Luo River, the case can only be dropped."
"Because it was deemed an accident, the case was not recorded in the official records. Your father and mother were devastated, and you were seriously ill. In the next six months, they held a funeral for Lan Zhou, and then devoted themselves to your treatment. Sickness."
Bao Ruoyou tried his best to recall the situation back then, but only some vague fragments flashed by, "How could I be sick for so long?"
Cheng Yunzhi recalled that year with even more unbearable eyes, "You are only a five-year-old child. You would be scared to leave your family normally, let alone being lost for a day and a night. You were too frightened. In addition, you contracted typhoid and high fever for several days that night. , any situation may happen."
Bo Ruoyou's fingertips were trembling, "I can't remember what happened that night, nor why my father and mother met with an accident."
Cheng Yunzhi said: "It is undoubtedly an accident for your father and mother. You were ill for half a year at that time. When your father and mother were desperate, they began to look for famous doctors and folk remedies. In the winter of that year, they went to Luozhou to seek medical treatment and returned to Beijing. At that time, there was heavy snowfall in Luochuan Mountain north of Luozhou, and their carriage and horse were in danger on the mountain and fell into the mountain stream, and they were killed."
Bo Ruoyou's eyes shrank violently, "He went to seek medical treatment for me..."
"They are your biological parents. They should seek medical treatment for you, but no one could have imagined that it had nothing to do with you." Cheng Yunzhi seemed to know what she would think, and quickly stopped her sternly, "You You were very ill at that time, and your father and mother lost your brother. It is absolutely impossible for them to watch you continue to be ill."
Bo Ruoyou looked at Cheng Yunzhi, "Did I hurt my head after being seriously ill with a high fever? Why can't I remember what happened that day and night at all? Am I the only one who knows what happened that day and night?"
Cheng Yunzhi hesitated, "It is possible to have bad memory after a serious illness. It is true that no one knows what happened that night, but you were only five years old at the time. Even if you were abducted by gangsters together, there was nothing you could do. , for your father and mother, it is a blessing that you are back, or maybe your siblings are also separated, and you have no idea how Lan Zhou was in danger."
Bo Ruoyou's heartbeat hit her eardrums again and again, "Has your adoptive father seen your brother's body?"
Cheng Yunzhi nodded, "I've seen it before. When I saw it, the government had already determined Lan Zhou's identity. Lan Zhou was taken back to the house and the coffin had been put in it. I was the imperial doctor at that time and had no intention of doing an autopsy. I just ordered you to My condolences to my father on Mother’s Day.”
"Then the adoptive father couldn't cure my disease at that time?"
Cheng Yunzhi shook his head, "Almost all the imperial doctors had treated you at that time, including my father."
A sadness suddenly welled up in Bao Ruoyou's heart. The tip of her nose was sore, and a mixed smell spread in her chest. She couldn't tell whether it was guilt or powerless self-loathing. It had been a long time, and the five-year-old She missed the best opportunity to find out the truth due to illness. Thirteen years later, will she still have a chance?
Her thoughts were confused and confused, and a thread in her mind was tightly stretched. At the moment when it was about to break, she raised her eyes and looked at Cheng Yunzhi, "Father, I want to re-investigate my brother's case."
Cheng Yunzhi hesitated for a moment, "It has been thirteen years, and the case was not finalized back then. How can we be sure now that Lan Zhou was harmed by someone else?"
Bo Ruoyou said firmly: "Because the old yamen said, the death of my brother was not right."
In fact, she still had some uneasy intuition in her heart, and she had an intuition that something must have happened that night, but she was a liar, and all she could believe were clues and evidence. She stood up, the panic in her eyes was suppressed, as if she was again Recovering his earlier calmness and determination, "I want to go and see the river beach where my brother was found."
The river beach was outside the city. Cheng Yunzhi took a look at the sky and quickly advised him, "There is no rush to go and see it. At this moment, don't be in a hurry."
Bao Ruoyou clenched her fists in her sleeves, feeling that she couldn't wait any longer. Just when she was hesitating, there was a knock on Cheng's house door, and soon Zhou Liang took Hou Yang away. Come in.
The two of them walked outside the door and said, "Master, Miss, Captain Wu has sent someone."
Bo Ruoyou and Cheng Yunzhi walked out together, and when they fixed their eyes, they saw Hou Yang with bright eyes. Hou Yang said happily when he saw Bo Ruoyou: "County Lord, we have found Li Shen's home. He is The murderer who killed Wen Jin!"
Bo Ruoyou's heart skipped a beat, and Hou Yang continued: "He ran away, and the policeman sent someone to arrest him. His home seems to be the place where the crime occurred. The policeman wants you to go and have a look."
Bao Ruoyou didn't expect Wu Xiang to move so quickly. Thinking that Li Shen was most likely the one who murdered her brother, she even felt a little unreal. As long as the murderer could be caught and interrogated strictly, whether her brother had been murdered Why worry about the truth about the murder?
