Chapter 44 Two Color Lotus 16
Why did a person who had fainted suddenly scream?
Bao Ruoyou was frightened by the voice, and Mr. Fu said impartially: "If the person does not die, the Marquis will give him a chance to talk properly. Now that the person cannot survive, the Marquis will naturally try to find ways to ask him questions. Order something."
Bo Ruoyou felt a little sad in his heart, but he also knew that with Huo Weilou's temperament, it was impossible to miss any opportunity to ask for a confession.
One scream was not subsided, and another scream was heard again. Soon, Lu Ke's low voice of questioning came from the room, but Wang Qingfu's voice was inaudible. After a while, the door opened and an embroiderer came out. Come to the door, "Mr. Ming, do you have any life-sustaining medicine with you?"
Ming Guilan hurriedly called to his attendants, "Go get the medicine."
Ming Guilan is a young miracle doctor, and this time he is traveling far away, so he always has medicine around him, but Bo Ruoyou knows that Wang Qingfu in the house may not be able to survive, and Huo Weilou wants to give him medicine to continue the torture.
It's a bit cruel, but the target is Wang Qingfu, so he doesn't deserve sympathy.
But Eunuch Fu was still worried about Bo Ruoyou, coughed slightly and said, "Youyou Ruoyou is scared, why don't you go back and rest?"
Bo Ruoyou laughed a little, "Don't worry, father-in-law, the women of the people are not afraid. The women also want to know where Wang Qingfu hid the relics." After a pause, Bo Ruoyou said again: "He is a smart man. Knowing that he was being suspected, and having been in the capital all year round, he knew the Marquis' methods, so he simply ended it on his own."
Bo Ruoyou frowned, "It's not like he's afraid of suffering, but it's like he's afraid of being exposed."
Lin Huai said from the side: "If he was escorted back to Beijing, the Marquis wanted to ask something but couldn't. He also thought about it, so he committed suicide, as if he wanted to hide a bigger secret."
A bigger secret?
Bo Ruoyou looked hesitant, wondering for a moment whether this bigger secret was related to the relics. Since Wang Qingfu was in the capital, was this secret related to other nobles in the capital?
She has been away from the capital for too long, her childhood memories have long been blurred, and she knows very little about the government affairs in the capital. Once she thinks about it more deeply, she feels that her thoughts are a little blocked.
Thinking of this, Bo Ruoyou raised his eyes and looked into the room, hoping that Wang Qingfu could reveal a few secrets before he died.
The life-extending medicine brought by the attendant was brought into the room. Soon, the sound started again. It could be heard that Wang Qingfu gradually lost the strength to even scream. The sun was already setting in the west, and when the sunset filled the sky, At this time, the door that had been closed for a long time opened.
Huo Weilou came out with a gloomy look. Facing everyone's gaze, he strode out of the yard without anyone looking at him. Lu Ke quickly followed from behind, and Eunuch Fu grabbed him and said, "How? ”
Lu Ke sighed, "I'm dying."
Eunuch Fu was shocked, "It's so fast. Didn't you also give me medicine?"
Lu Ke shook his head, "He is a tough guy, and he still wants to die. If we have more time, there is a way. With this little effort, people have fainted several times, and it is really hard to find out anything." He said a little helplessly, " The Marquis will be angry this time."
At this time, an embroiderer strode in from outside, "The Marquis wants to interrogate Yue Mingquan."
Lu Ke's expression perked up and he hurriedly walked out, followed by Lin Huai.
Eunuch Fu sighed as he looked at it, "I'm very busy tonight. The prince and Mr. Ming should go back and rest."
Huo Qinghong frowned, "This case is about to be solved..."
This case is a murder case, and the whereabouts of the relics also need to be traced. Although we now know who the perpetrator was, the whereabouts of the relics were lost as soon as Wang Qingfu died. How could Huo Weilou be willing to do so?
Eunuch Fu said some more words of comfort before watching the two of them go back. When he turned around, he saw several embroiderers carrying Wang Qingfu's body out.
Bao Ruoyou glanced over and saw that Wang Qingfu's hair was still on his temples and his green shirt was loose and full of blood, as if his organs had been injured. However, there were no traces of wounds on his head, face, chest exposed by the collar, etc. , when Eunuch Fu saw how intently she was looking, he whispered: "There are many ways to embroider clothes without leaving any scars."
Bao Ruoyou took one last look at Wang Qingfu's silent face with his eyes closed, and followed Eunuch Fu back to the yard.
All the embroiderers in the courtyard were silent. Eunuch Fu and Bo Ruoyou walked to the door of the main hall and saw Huo Weilou sitting on the main seat and Yue Mingquan kneeling in the hall, with shock on his face.
"...The criminal didn't know why he was so determined, but...he died like this..."
Huo Weilou's eyes were cold and clear, "If you think about it carefully, he never mentioned any use of the stolen relics back then?"
Yue Mingquan frowned, and after a while he said anxiously: "No, I didn't mention it, because the guilty minister also asked him many times, but he was strictly guarded -"
Speaking of this, Yue Mingquan suddenly stared, "He said at that time that knowing about it would do no good to the guilty minister. His tone seemed as if the guilty minister would be killed if he knew about it."
Huo Weilou's eyes narrowed slightly, and Yue Mingquan continued, "At that time, the guilty minister was thinking that he, a small minister of Taichang Temple, didn't know what he was doing after stealing the relics. Maybe... maybe there was something else behind him. Big shot, the guilty minister only wanted glory and wealth, so why did he need to know so much? So the guilty minister never asked again."
The sky was getting dark, Huo Weilou leaned back in his chair, his handsome features were dimmed in the dim light, and he could not distinguish his emotions for a moment, but a chilling pressure poured out of him, and he knelt down Yue Mingquan in the hall couldn't help but feel horrified.
As if to dispel his fear, Yue Mingquan continued to think hard: "Yes, this is the feeling. Although his official position was not high at the time, he always had a sense of being in control and everything was arranged. The guilty minister was in Luozhou , just like a subordinate working for him. Even now, the guilty minister is still wondering to whose hands the relic went."
"When I got the relics, the young man who knew Rougu Kung was sent away by the guilty minister overnight, but the guilty minister personally handed the relics to him. I don't know how he sent the relics away. After several days of asking questions in a secluded place, he still kept silent and told me to distance myself from him in front of outsiders. After that, the guilty minister never had the chance to ask him again."
Huo Weilou ordered people to summon Wu Yu after hearing this. Wu Yu also knew about Wang Qingfu's death. When he came in, his legs and feet were weak. When Huo Weilou asked about what happened back then, Wu Yu recalled: "That year I never noticed anything unusual. After staying in the temple for a month, Xiaguan returned to the capital with him. We took the water route and had a few days of leisure along the way."
Lin Huai hesitated and asked: "Master Hou, do you think he has been hiding the relics secretly on his body?"
Huo Weilou's eyes were cold, "Such a perfect person should not hand over something as important as the relic to others, and at that time there was martial law inside and outside the temple, so he did not leave it to him to **** the relic down the mountain. For Yue Mingquan, it is probably impossible to arrange for someone to send it away by himself. Once something goes wrong, all the previous efforts will be wasted. And at that time, how could anyone think that he stole the relic and hid it with him."
Lin Huai felt justified, "The most dangerous place is also the safest place. But now I don't know what he did for stealing the relics, and I don't know if he brought the relics back to the capital."
"You will know when you go back to the capital and search your house." Huo Weilou's eyes were dark, "There is no need to stay here any longer. You quickly find Fan and others to record evidence and confessions, and then take all the evidence with you and return to the capital as soon as possible. ."
If Wang Qingfu really brought the relics back to his house in the capital, even though ten years had passed, there might still be clues in the house, and his wives and concubines might also know a lot of old things, and they would have to interrogate them one by one. Huo Wei Lou has a resolute nature, and the case could have been solved, but it happened at such a juncture, which really annoyed him.
At this point, Huo Weilou thought for a moment and said: "Lin Zhao is also here. Ask him to help you. Prepare all the evidence to be presented in court tomorrow, and you can set off the day after tomorrow."
After hearing this, Eunuch Fu came in and said, "Master Hou, when we return to Beijing this time, shall we take the land route or the water route?"
The land route is fast, but very tiring, and the water route is slow, but more leisurely. They took the land route when going south. Therefore, although Eunuch Fu asked this question, he already had the answer in his heart. In his opinion, Huo Wei Tower must be the place to go. One hundred thousand fire rushed back to the capital.
Huo Weilou frowned, and suddenly he caught sight of Bo Ruoyou standing outside the door. Due to a strange combination of circumstances, he did not answer this question, but simply said: "Both Feng Lun and Wang Qingfu's bodies have to be brought back to the capital, and there is some inconvenience on the way."
Eunuch Fu was also a little worried, so Huo Weilou ordered Wu Yu and Yue Mingquan to retreat and called Bo Ruoyou in.
Looking at Bo Ruoyou, Huo Weilou asked, "Do you want to go back to Qingzhou?"
Unexpectedly, Bo Ruoyou shook his head and said, "The daughter of the common people is going to meet up with her stepfather and then go to the capital."
Eunuch Fu was surprised, "Youyou are going to the capital?"
The corners of Bo Ruoyou's lips curved, "Yes, a civilian girl was born in the capital, and this time she is back to her old place."
Eunuch Fu glanced at Huo Weilou, then looked at Bo Ruoyou and asked: "Then what you said you asked the Marquis to do..."
"I want to ask the Marquis to recommend women to work as widowers in the Yamen of Jingzhao Mansion."
Eunuch Fu took a breath, and then he looked overjoyed, "Oh my God, I thought that after this case was concluded, we parted ways. I didn't expect that you are from the capital. In the future, when you are in the capital, we will There’s a chance to see you again!”
Eunuch Fu's tone was joyful and his expression was full of pity. As big as Bo Ruoyou was, few elders treated her so kindly. He felt quite moved for a moment, "Yes, there is a chance to meet again."
Eunuch Fu thought of Huo Weilou’s expression last night. After thinking about it deeply, he realized something profound and said, “Since you are going to the capital, how are you going to get there?”
"The adoptive father is waiting at Xiling Ferry. The daughter of the people can go there to find the adoptive father." Having said this, Bo Ruoyou turned around and said, "Since Lord Marquis is going to leave the day after tomorrow, the daughter of the people will also go there the day after. Go to Xiling Ferry early in the morning."
Xiling Ferry is in Xiling County to the east of Luozhou. If you want to go north by water, you can take a boat from there. Huo Weilou's expression did not move after hearing her words, but Eunuch Fu was a little anxious, "Since you have to go back to the capital, , why not join us?"
Bo Ruoyou was a little embarrassed, "My foster father has limited legs and feet. The only way to make this trip safer is by water. Besides, the Marquis is in a hurry to run errands, and the daughter of the people does not dare to drag everyone down."
Eunuch Fu understood, and was feeling a little regretful when he heard Huo Weilou say: "The autopsy and bone examination report will be written tomorrow. In addition, I will examine Wang Qingfu tomorrow and issue a copy of the examination report."
Bo Ruoyou responded hurriedly and respectfully. Huo Weilou glanced at her and said, "Just step back."
When Bo Ruoyou left Fu, Eunuch Fu coughed lightly, "Master Marquis, my body and bones are a little overwhelmed..."
"Oh?" Huo Weilou stood up and walked to the left compartment, "Then you are really old. You don't have to follow me next time you go out."
Eunuch Fu almost lost his breath and glared at Huo Weilou's back before saying: "They say they are in a hurry to return to Beijing to do errands, but in fact they are just some rough work of searching the house. Why does the Marquis have to go back to Beijing to deal with it himself? Let Lu Ke or Lin The minister is taking the land route back to Beijing, so we can take the water route without delaying the business at all."
Huo Weilou was reading two brochures sent from the capital. Hearing these words, his face remained motionless. Eunuch Fu said helplessly: "Youyou herself is not yet eighteen years old, and her adoptive father has bad legs and feet." It’s inconvenient. It’s really worrying for two people to go on the road. It takes more than ten days to travel by water just by boat. I don’t know when we arrived in the capital.”
Huo Weilou raised his eyes from the book, "Beijing..." He murmured, then asked Eunuch Fu: "When will the investigation be settled?"
Eunuch Fu was stunned, "Master Hou, are you talking about checking Youyou's life experience?"
Huo Weilou nodded, and Eunuch Fu said: "Master Hou, are you still worried about Youyou? He sent people to Qingshan County, passing through Qingzhou City, and visited there for two days before coming to Luozhou. How many nights will it take? Let’s see if people can come back tomorrow, otherwise I’m afraid I’ll have to get the news on the way back to Beijing.”
Huo Weilou's eyes fell on the fold again, "It's not that I'm worried, but I never thought that she was from the capital."
Eunuch Fu smiled and said, "This must be fate, but it is indeed a bit strange for Youyou and her adoptive father and stepmother to go from the capital to a small place like Qingshan County."
Huo Weilou didn't say much. The case has been decided. Although he felt that there might be another opportunity to use Bo Ruoyou in the future, she was a young woman with a clear temperament, which would not hinder tolerance, and it was even less likely that he would use his wife. It makes no difference whether you pay more attention to her or find out tomorrow or on the way back.
Before resting, Eunuch Fu asked Huo Weilou again, "Master Marquis, are we really going to return by dry road?"
Huo Weilou pondered for a moment, "We will discuss it tomorrow."
……
Bao Ruoyou had a good night's sleep. Although there were still relics that had not been recovered in this case, it was beyond her control, so she felt relieved. When she thought that Huo Weilou would write a letter of recommendation for her, she I feel more satisfied.
Early on the next morning, Bo Ruoyou went to the morgue to do a rough inspection of Wang Qingfu's body, and wrote three more autopsy reports. At noon, he planned to hand it over to Huo Weilou. However, when he returned to the monastery, Huo Wei The dangerous building is not there.
"Miss Bo, Mr. Hou and Lin Shilang went to the Sutra Library."
After listening to the words of the embroidered clothes envoy, Bo Ruoyou went to the Buddhist scripture building. As soon as he walked to the Buddhist scripture building, he heard someone talking in the courtyard. Bo Ruoyou entered the courtyard in confusion and saw three people in the courtyard. The young people in Feng Jiyue were talking and laughing.
Huo Qinghong changed into a blue shirt today. He looked calmer. A smile appeared at the end of his slender eyes, and his phoenix eyes similar to Huo Weilou looked quite sentimental. Next to him, Lin Zhao had handsome features and elegant character. His gestures and gestures were full of the nobility of a noble family in the capital. Although Ming Guilan was a little shorter than them in the wheelchair, his expression was peaceful and his eyes were compassionate. There is a sense of transcendence, and his style is not inferior to the other two.
Hearing the movement, the three of them turned to look at her, and they were slightly startled almost at the same time.
Bo Ruoyou stood quietly in the moon cave door with gray tiles and white walls. She was wearing a moon-white dress and was not decorated with pink, gold or jade, but she was like the green bamboos in the corner, soft, graceful and graceful. Outstanding.
"Tsk, Youyou is coming——"
Huo Qinghong's words were the most like Meng Lang's. Thinking of that day when he failed to coax Bo Ruoyou, he felt annoyed in his heart. He also felt that Bo Ruoyou was a bit interesting. Lin Zhao and Ming Guilan disapproved of the way he called her affectionate. He looked at him, fearing that Bao Ruoyou would be embarrassed and upset, but he saw that she was calmly blessing her body, not taking it seriously at all, as if she didn't take the majestic prince into consideration.
Bo Ruoyou was thinking about business, "Can the Marquis be here?"
Huo Qinghong didn't answer, but came forward and looked at her hand to examine the shape, "What is this?"
"It is an autopsy document recording the details of the autopsy."
Huo Qinghong was curious and wanted to come up and get it, but Ming Guilan said helplessly: "Your Majesty, Miss Bo is looking for the Marquis."
Lin Zhaomeifeng moved slightly and came forward, "Girl, the Marquis and my father are discussing matters inside. Please come with me..."
Bao Ruoyou thanked her and followed Lin Zhao. Huo Qinghong said angrily: "You two will protect this little girl!"
Ming Guilan laughed and shook his head. Lin Zhao, who was walking in front, suddenly turned around and asked, "Is the girl's surname Bo?"
Bo Ruoyou nodded, "Exactly."
Lin Zhao smiled and seemed to find it interesting. Bo Ruoyou was a little confused. Lin Zhao saw him being so casual and said: "The surname Bo is rare, but I am destined to have the surname Bo."
These words seemed to have some profound meaning, as if he knew other people with the surname Bo, but Bo Ruoyou was not familiar with him, so he would not ask again.
Huo Weilou and Lin Huai were talking in the tea room. Although Lin Huai was co-organizer of the case, it now involved two fourth-rank court officials. Huo Weilou wanted to hand it over to the Ministry of Justice to present it to the court. They were talking inside, and the three outside were talking. People's chatter and laughter would come into the tea room from time to time, but Lin Huai was fine. Huo Weilou had practiced martial arts since he was a child, and he had a sharp ear and eyesight. He was aware of Huo Qinghong's noise outside, but suddenly he heard that the three people's voices had stopped. , Huo Qinghong's "Youyou is coming" sounded harshly.
Huo Weilou almost immediately turned to look at the window lattice. Lin Huai noticed it and said with a smile: "Miss Wu Zuo is here."
Huo Weilou remained silent, and Lin Huai continued what he had just said, "Your Majesty respects Master Jingming very much, and Famen Temple is also a royal temple. As the official wishes, it is better to extract Master Jingming from his past events." Come out..."
Lin Huai spoke in a deep voice, but he could not block the whispers of Bo Ruoyou outside. When Lin Zhao led Bo Ruoyou to the tea room, he could even hear the footsteps of the two of them clearly. Chu.
So before the two entered the door, Huo Weilou asked Lin Huai, "Is Lin Zhao engaged?"
Lin Huai didn't know why he asked this, so he smiled and said: "Yes, it was decided many years ago that the wedding date will be next year."
Huo Weilou nodded, and the next moment, Lin Zhao walked in with Bo Ruoyou, "Master Marquis, father, Miss Bo is here..."
Lin Huai didn't have any reaction when he heard this sound. Bo Ruoyou bowed and came forward to hand over the examination form, "The examination form is complete. Please check it with the Marquis. If there are no mistakes or omissions, the daughter of the people will be on her errand." That’s it.”
Huo Weilou took it and flipped through it casually. Bo Ruoyou's handwriting was as elegant as a human being's and she should have written the test report many times. The preparations were clear and clear. He pressed down the test report and only wrote two words. , "Not bad."
Bo Ruoyou keenly realized that Huo Weilou was dissatisfied again. She didn't know where she had made a mistake. After thinking about it, she explained: "The daughter of the people did not say much about the death of Mr. Wang. She only said that he died by swallowing gold. ."
She would never write that Huo Weilou tortured Wang Qingfu. However, after she finished speaking, Huo Weilou only responded lightly and talked to Lin Huai about how to transport the body tomorrow. Bo Ruoyou said to you, Marquis Wu Zhao. It was not clear that she could retire as soon as she made no mistakes, so she bowed and left.
Lin Zhao followed closely behind, "The Marquis is quite strict in terms of tolerance, so Miss Bo doesn't need to worry about it."
Bo Ruoyou smiled, "This is how it should be for business reasons. Thank you very much, sir."
Lin Zhao felt that it must be very difficult for a young girl named Bo Ruoyou to run errands for Huo Weilou, but he did not expect that she was very transparent. When he looked closely, he saw that the smile was still on Bo Ruoyou's face. The warm sun was shining brightly, and Lin Zhao felt that the light was dazzling in front of his eyes, and he was stunned.
Bo Ruoyou walked to the atrium, blessed the three young masters and left the courtyard. Huo Qinghong snorted, "This little girl doesn't take my son seriously."
Ming Guilan laughed out loud, "You finally know, do you think that all the little girls in the world will be as respectful and flattering to you as the one you met in the capital?"
After Ming Guilan finished speaking, he turned around and saw Lin Zhao still standing under the eaves, as if he had lost his soul. He couldn't help but call out. Lin Zhao came to his senses and walked toward them with his fresh energy restored.
In the tea room, Huo Weilou talked to Lin Huai for half an hour before he came out. The three people outside did not know where they had gone. But thinking of the scene just now, Huo Weilou felt a cold feeling in his heart. He gave it to Lin Huai, but his fingertips seemed to still be as warm as when he took it just now.
Huo Weilou frowned and went straight to the abbot's room. Jingming was still locked up in the abbot's room. Now that he was leaving, he needed to give instructions on what kind of regulations were in the temple. He might as well wait until he returned to the capital. Face Saint.
However, before reaching the abbot's room, he saw Eunuch Fu and two embroiderers walking quickly from the direction of the Main Hall. Eunuch Fu walked in a hurry and looked a little hurried. Huo Weilou stopped and waited, not knowing what was going on. What happened.
"Master Hou, the people who went to Qingshan County have returned. Miss Bo's life experience has been temporarily found out."
Huo Weilou raised his eyebrows slightly, but Eunuch Fu looked around and said, "Master Hou, it's not appropriate to talk here. Let's change places."
Huo Weilou was a little surprised. If Bo Ruoyou had an ordinary life experience, it could be said in a few words, why change places?
When he was thinking this, he had already changed direction and headed towards the monastery. When he returned to the yard, he saw that the door of Bo Ruoyou's wing was closed. Not knowing what he was doing, he went straight into the upper room and sat down, "You said - —"
Eunuch Fu swallowed and said, "Master Hou, Youyou is really from the capital. Ten years ago, she bought a house in Qingshan County with her adoptive father and stepmother to live in. The locals thought she came from a wealthy family. , but I didn’t expect them to leave as soon as they moved in. Youyou’s adopted father’s name is Cheng Yunzhi, and your adoptive mother’s surname is Fang. At first, everyone thought they were a family of three, but later they got acquainted with the neighbors and realized that they were not related.
"Later they opened a medical clinic in the county town. Youyou's adoptive mother was seen by the doctor, but her adoptive father went to have a marriage. Later, her adoptive mother got sick, and the medical clinic was closed. Three years ago, her adoptive mother After she died of illness and her adoptive father was also in poor health, Youyou officially began to help with autopsies at the county government office, and everyone around her knew how good she was."
"At first, everyone only knew that they were from the capital. Later, as time went by, people close to them also knew that Youyou was from the Bo family in the capital." Eunuch Fu pursed his lips, "Master Hou, although it is not 100% It's definitely the Bo we know."
Huo Weilou frowned, "In the capital, I only know the Bo family of 'one sect and three ministers'."
Mr. Fu said fairly: "It's this Bo family. Not only that, there is something else that the old slave never expected. It seems that Youyou has already been engaged, and you can't imagine who she will be engaged to." !"
Huo Weilou looked at Eunuch Fu calmly, and Eunuch Fu said incredulously: "It's Lin Zhao, the son of Lin Shilang's family. What a coincidence!"
