The Delicate Lady Coroner

Chapter 27 - An inch of gold 27



Zheng Yunni’s strange smile on his face was not diminished, and the tail of his eyes was raised, and he looked at Bo Ruoyou provocatively. Although he did not speak, the meaning of the period was clear. Bo Ruoyou’s eyes were slightly cold, “You were afraid of light at first. Huo, but soon discovered that this is the life of ordinary people, so you start to be afraid, afraid that they will find that you are fake, so you go back to the dark room and ruin her face.”

After a slight pause, everything the manager had said that day came to her mind, and Bo Ruoyou said: “You used kerosene to start a fire, just to practice your hands. You want to see if you can burn people to death if you use kerosene to start a fire, so your father asked later. Why did you light a fire in your own house, you asked him if the fire could burn people to death—”

When the steward replied that day, both Huo Weilou and Father Fu listened. At that time, only Zheng Yunni, who was hysterical, was acting innocent. Only now did he realize that his words and deeds were malicious.

Zheng Yunni listened to what Bo Ruoyou said, only clutching his injured wrist with a weird smile, as if knowing that he was gone, Zheng Wenan just recovered from the shock at this moment, look at Zheng Yunni, and then look at the rescued by the embroidered clothes ambassador. The woman’s voice was extremely difficult, “Yun Ni…Is what the Bo girl said is true or not?”

Zheng Yunni’s eyes suddenly turned red when she heard this. She looked at Zheng Wen’an, her face mixed with anger and mockery, “Is it true or false… Uncle Wu, why don’t you ask yourself, grandmother, and father? …”

Zheng Wenan’s complexion changed a little. At this time, the lady who had just been rescued by the embroiderer coughed a few times and woke up suddenly. She was struggling to get to the ground. The embroiderer put her down, but where is she? He stood up and fell to the ground immediately.

Her magnificent outer garment was now dusty, and her back was burnt and black and ragged, and the blood of the burn was faintly visible, and the weak and boneless hands were also burned with blood blisters at this moment, but she As if unable to detect the pain, his eyes swept around in a panic, and he saw the real Zheng Yunni who came out from behind and was held by the embroidered clothes ambassador.

The real Zheng Yunni is different from the old lady who was burned. She only has black and gray stains on her face. Apart from the many cracks in her robes, she has no other injuries. She has just been out of the fire It was a violent cough, and when the embroidered clothes let go, she also coughed and fell to the ground.

The eldest lady crawled all the way towards her like this, and then cautiously wanted to pull her hand.

However, she shrank for a while, and hurriedly backed away. If it were not for the fire behind her, she would have to turn around and escape into the forest. When she saw that there were so many people here, she shrank her shoulders rather uncomfortably. , And the moment she saw Zheng Wenrong, her gaze was a little stagnant, but in the next instant, a heavy guard appeared in the bottom of her eyes, and her whole body was tense. The crowd was staring at the gap between the ink and hair on her face. This angle made her eyes whiter than the pupils, making her look cold and terrifying.

The eldest lady burst into tears. She always laughed habitually with madness. Although she was crying at the moment, her voice was hoarse, and it sounded indistinguishable from crying and laughing. Only the person standing by her side could see the big one. Large tears fell from her face, and she looked at Zheng Yunni eagerly, her lips twitched, she clearly wanted to say something, but she couldn’t say a word, her expression was sorrowful for a while, and then at a loss, as if she was distraught at the previous moment. , But even forgot why he cried a moment later.

“Master Hou, when the subordinates found them, the lady was holding her behind a stone tablet with an inscription in the forest. The doctor was burned for protecting her.”

Huo Weilou looked at the three mothers and daughters on the ground, and a few waves appeared in his eyes, “Please doctor.”

He Cheng hurriedly sent the office to invite the doctor, and when he turned around, he saw Huo Weilou’s gaze on the real Zheng Yunni.

She was obviously full of guard against everyone, but she looked fierce, and she moved slowly backwards, as if she really planned to return to the fire scene instead of being rescued in the next moment. Huo Weilou glanced at the two embroidered ambassadors. The two approached her a few steps and blocked her only escape route. By this time, she seemed to realize that she had no way to escape.

But except for her face, she was still not afraid of it.

He Cheng sighed, “She…does she still recognize someone? Can she talk?”

Bo Ruoyou said: “Recognize, Minnu guessed that she first came out of the culvert two years ago. In the past two years, I want to come out and walk around the house more often, speaking… I’m afraid it will be difficult.”

A six-year-old child has been locked up in an underground dark room for almost ten years. Even if he has never gone mad, it is impossible to talk and think like an ordinary 16-year-old, but looking at her appearance, I am afraid that she is also different from ordinary people. .

He Cheng glanced at Huo Weilou, “Then Lord Hou, are you taking it away directly? She looks like this, even if it’s hard to be tried.”

Huo Weilou frowned slightly as he was about to speak, and suddenly heard a noise from behind him. He looked back, but he saw the silly aunt standing not far away with red eyes. She wanted to come here, but was stopped by the embroiderer. Down, the tears are hazy at the moment.

Huo Wei said in the corridor: “Let her in.”

Silly Aunt is most afraid of people on weekdays, but at this moment, she actually has some courage. She shrinks her shoulders, her expression is still cowardly, but when she sees the embroidered dress agent let go, she straightens towards the real Zheng Yunni. Go, and the moment the real Zheng Yunni saw the fool, the fierce expression on his face seemed to freeze slightly.

Silly Aunt ran to her and just squatted down, she tremblingly took out a chestnut cake from her sleeve that was crushed and only half of it was left, and carefully handed it to Zheng Yunni.

She hesitated for a moment, raised her hand to take it, and ate it in small bites under such a situation where it was impossible to escape.

The half of the sky reflected by the fire is blood red, so two young girls who are equally thin and have the same scars are close together like real twin sisters. After eating the chestnut cake, Zheng Yunni really shrinks and looks guarded. Looking at the crowd, the silly aunt turned around, looking at a loss and panic.

They didn’t seem to know the outcome of killing people, but felt that the battle before them was too terrifying. Huo Weilou frowned and said, “Take her two away.”

The embroidered clothes envoy stepped forward to take people. In an instant, the real Zheng Yunni smelled like a dangerous little beast. His petite and thin stature suddenly rose from the ground and turned around to flee. He took the human embroidered clothes to see her. She was so agile, she was so agile, she was stunned for a moment before she rushed forward, and she was blocked by the fire. Soon, an embroidered dress made a palm instead of a fist on her shoulder, and a heavy blow made her body collapse. , Another **** cut her arm back behind her back.

The pain made her suffocate her teeth, and her face was even more severe. Her eyes stared at the people around her, as if she was about to jump up and bite people at any time. No.

The silly aunt panicked, and got up in shock and fear, but did not dare to come forward. She stood helplessly and shed tears silently. The eldest lady also struggled to get up. She looked at the silly girl, and then at the real Zheng Yunni. It seemed that there was a daughter with scars in surprise, but he hesitated for a moment, or stepped forward to stop him, Zheng Wenrong stepped forward and pulled the eldest lady in a hurry, “Sister-in-law…she…she killed a lot of lives…”

Zheng Wenrong was still immersed in the horror that this talent was Zheng Yunni, looking at this ugly face, and thinking about how he taught Zheng Yunni to write and paint ten years ago, my heart was sad for a while, and the corners of his lips moved, but he didn’t know what to say to her. What kind of words, and the greater the lady’s struggle, the louder the cry in her mouth, which makes people feel moved when they look at it.

“what-“

At this moment, Zheng Yunni who fell to the ground suddenly gave a short and sharp smile, as if she had seen some joke, she fixedly looked at the back of the lady, her eyes were shining with fire, and she seemed to contain blood and tears.

Huo Weilou frowned, “Take her away.”

Zheng Yunni’s expression changed, and he said sharply: “Why? I’m even going to kill someone, but is she dead?! She is alive and well, because she killed three days of life, what to do with me…”

He Cheng couldn’t help saying: “You attempted to set fire to someone, and you almost hurt your mother. In this way, you can be arrested. Back then, you locked up the real eldest lady and hurt her face. These are all guilt- “

Zheng Yunni smiled exaggeratedly, and suddenly she raised her finger to Zheng Wen’an, “What about him? Is he not guilty? What about the dead two uncles and three uncles? And grandmother! Are they not guilty! I…I didn’t have to do this. …Who made me like this?!”

Tears gushed out, as if at this moment, it was her real crying, “What about the real? What about the fake? From the moment I was born, everything was wrong. Grandma could have not been with the second majesty. Their marriage, they…they could have kept their grandmother and father from hiding one…but they didn’t…no one had spoken for me…”

“Just because I’m the little one, should I be sent to that dark place?!”

Zheng Yunni’s tears fell like beads, but the corners of her lips burst into a stern smile. She suddenly looked at the real Zheng Yunni, “I and she are twin sisters, but why should I not see it in my life, and she is golden and honorable and glorious for half a lifetime. Even God can’t stand it, so I let her go into the culvert. The moment I saw her, I knew something was wrong. She was exactly the same as the one I gave birth to, but she was born with Ling Luo, she was the real human Looks like, and I…I’m just a monster…”

Zheng Yunni suddenly couldn’t laugh, as if thinking of the distant dark memory, her brows and eyes were filled with resentment and sadness. With this look, she and the real Zheng Yunni became more and more like sisters.

She pulled her lips, her voice suddenly became cold, “You turn me into a monster, don’t blame the monster for being ruthless, I…I just want to live like a person, what if I change her?”

“She has gone through six years of ease and prosperity, and it’s my turn…”

Zheng Yunni looked at the real Zheng Yunni with an obsessive and mad look, “I…at first didn’t think about keeping her underground forever, but…but it’s so good to be loved by someone, and it’s so good to see the light. “Zheng Yunni let go of his injured wrist, raised his hand to his eyebrows, his eyes narrowed slightly, as if blocking the non-existent sunlight.

“I don’t want to go back, I don’t want to go back anymore. Since I have to keep one underground, why can’t it be her?!” She suddenly let go, her face mockingly and coldly, “It’s ridiculous that these self-sufficient pets Her people can’t tell who is the real her. She is nothing more than an artifact for the Hou Mansion to seek glory and wealth…”

At this point, Zheng Yunni suddenly looked at the lady with a sarcasm, “Even my mother, she can’t tell, she treats me as the original one, and treats me so much. Even though she is crazy, she still knows that I am lost. One night, she…not only did she not recognize it, but even…” As if thinking of something ridiculous, Zheng Yunni suddenly laughed weirdly, “Even when she followed me back to the culvert and saw me setting fire, I don’t even know that the one who was burned is the original daughter…”

“So, it was ridiculous that she watched her rolling on the ground…”

Zheng Yunni laughed tears well again, and everyone’s expressions changed drastically. Bo Ruoyou, who was speechless for a long time, was also shocked. She turned to look at the lady, and the questions that had been in her heart for many days were finally solved at this moment.

The crazy mother saw her second daughter set fire with her own eyes. Even if she didn’t understand what was going on right now, she still left in her heart the image of another daughter with scars on her face. It burned years ago and has been burning to this day. The entire Anqing Hou’s family was burnt to death, and all of this began on the day when the twin daughters were born, or, as early as the day when the eldest lady rescued the second Royal Highness, the tragedy would have been Already have a foreshadowing.

Zheng Yunni said that she laughed wildly about what happened back then, but the real Zheng Yunni, the victim of this incident, did not see any waves on her face. She stood by and listened, with indifference and hatred between her eyebrows from beginning to end. It seemed that the cold and dark darkness in the culvert had melted into her musculoskeletal blood.

“Is this after your house caught fire?” Bo Ruoyou asked.

Zheng Yunni seemed to know what Bo Ruoyou wanted to ask, so she laughed: “I didn’t expect my mother to follow me into the culvert that night, and then I took her out. Fortunately, she was frightened, as if she didn’t remember anything. Like, but I still don’t worry. I don’t know if she died in it. So, I had a fight and my father filled the lotus pond.”

“At that time, I thought that was the only entrance.”

When saying this, Zheng Yunni’s tone was particularly understatement, but the more so, the more it revealed her determination to keep her sister underground forever, which was chilling for a while.

Seeing Zheng Yunni’s sorrowful mockery on his face, Bo Ruoyou finally said: “Perhaps, your mother did not separate you, but she also recognized you. You were sent away that year and she became ill. No matter which daughter is by your side, she loves her equally. It’s just that you have this knot in your heart over the years, and how much do you really respect and love her?”

Zheng Yunni’s complexion changed slightly, as if he had never thought of this possibility. She was stunned for a moment, and Bo Ruoyou looked at the lady, “Look at her. I haven’t seen your sister in so many years, but he still subconsciously protects her. She, how do you know that all her love for you over the years is to treat you as your sister?”

Zheng Yunni’s face was stunned, her eyebrows twitched, as if she didn’t want to believe in this possibility, “So…what about that? Now the Hou Mansion’s disaster is buried by their older generations. It is not me who deceives the king, and it is not me that the Hou Mansion harms others. , What if I set fire, I…”

“None of you can escape.” Huo Weilou was silent for a long time and finally opened his mouth. “Except for Zheng Wenrong and the eldest wife, everyone else is taken to the state prison. There are many years of twists and turns in this case, and it needs to be interrogated and reported to the Criminal Department clearly. .”

He Cheng hurriedly responded. Zheng Yunni heard that Zheng Wen’an and others were also being held, his face was a bit less angry, and he actually said: “Look at the laws of this big week, what can convict me! “

Seeing that the ya chap was about to arrest her, the eldest lady changed her expression and ran towards her. Holding her hand, the old lady looked at Yacha in horror, her mouth opened and closed, but there was only a sound of “Ahhhh”, but tears continued.

Zheng Yunni was furious all night, either resented, or decisively decisive. At this moment, seeing the old lady full of blood blisters but still wanting to keep her without pain, her face finally flashed and she couldn’t bear it, her lips were tight. She squeezed her tightly, but she pushed away the eldest lady’s hand, adjusted her dress again, and walked out with her chin raised.

The eldest lady wanted to keep up in a daze, and was stopped by Zheng Wenrong. When she turned her head, she saw that the real Zheng Yunni and the idiot were also taken by the embroidered clothes ambassador and walked out. She struggling to stop with a double “Ah ah” Zheng Wenrong couldn’t pull it for a while, so she broke free and chased him forward, but just after two steps, the lady tripped on the skirt and fell to the ground feebly.

Zheng Yunni, who was restrained from walking outwards, took a meal and turned her head back stiffly. She fixedly looked at the eldest lady, seeing how sad the elder lady was crying, as if thinking of a very long-lasting thing for a moment. A soft color floated from the bottom of her eyes, and she uttered two words in a strange and difficult way, but she had a hoarse voice and aphasia. Even if the two words were difficult to say, it was the nearest embroiderer. Did not hear what she was talking about.

In the end, three people were killed. The Embroidery Envoy treated her with no pity. Seeing her standing still, she pushed a hand. She seemed to wake up, and when she turned around, the soft color between her eyebrows and eyes quickly dispersed and dried. net.

Zheng Wen’an was also surrounded by government officials. The change of the night made him feel uncomfortable. Now Wu Zhaohou finds out the old things of the year, and there is no possibility to cover them for them. It is conceivable that the Anqing Houfu can not only protect the marriage between the eldest lady and the second highness. I was afraid of being punished for a felony, thinking of the death of his mother and the tragic death of his elder brother, and he could not even keep the honor of the Hou Mansion. He was also mourned for a while. Seeing Zheng Wenrong pulling the lady to comfort him, he had no choice but to mutely say: “Four Brother, I will leave it to you.”

Zheng Wenrong was sent out of the Hou Mansion since he was a child. He was originally someone that the Hou Mansion did not want to recognize, but now he is the only one who can preside over the overall situation. Zheng Wenrong nodded solemnly, and Zheng Wenan was taken away with a dejected face.

The fire was still not contained, and no one at the scene had thought that the misty and unpredictable case would have been solved in this way. Zheng Yunni’s clever fire not only exposed his secrets, but also caused the murderer to be arrested. Even though the culvert was discovered, the murderer Getting caught is sooner or later, but many old things will be revealed tonight, and outsiders like He Cheng find it hard to calm down.

Zheng Wenrong was still pacifying the eldest lady. Seeing that it was really impossible, he asked the maids to forcibly send the eldest lady back. Here, Bo Ruoyou was startled looking at the direction where Zheng Yunni was really leaving.

Tonight, Zheng Yunni was acting or crying, and the grievances and anger in his heart were all in front of others, but the real Zheng Yunni never uttered a word. Xu Shi could not say, Xu Shi did not want to say, and perhaps he was used to living. In the darkness and loneliness, her body was full of guard and coldness. Only when the idiot gave her chestnut cakes, there was a trace of human life, and when Shi Cai turned around, Bo Ruoyou only looked at her opening her mouth. , But it’s hard to tell what she is talking about…

“She called out’mother’.” Huo Weilou walked to Bo Ruoyou’s side at some unknown time.

Bo Ruoyou came back to his senses, suppressed the thoughts in his heart, and said quietly, “She has three lives, according to the law…”

“Be cut according to the law.” Huo Weilou did not hesitate.

Bo Ruoyou sighed, and without further words, Father Fu stepped forward and said, “The fake eldest lady has not made a mistake. Everyone in the Hou Mansion is guilty this time. The child is indeed pitiful, but no matter how pitiful he is, he can’t be in vain. The law hurts lives personally.”

Bo Ruoyou smiled bitterly, “Father-in-law, don’t worry, people and women know these truths. If you ignore the law and lynch them, the world will be in chaos.”

He Cheng walked over and said respectfully: “Master Hou, you have all the orders. You must go to the office to interrogate you overnight. Be sure to submit the dossier to Master Hou for review.”

Huo Weilou waved his hand: “You don’t have to look at this case. The case is now fully handed over to you for trial, and the subsequent files can be submitted to the Criminal Department as usual.”

He Cheng’s expression changed slightly, “Master Hou is leaving Qingzhou?”

Fu Gonggong smiled and said, “Master Hou originally went to Luozhou with a tolerance. He came to you because he was entrusted by the old Xinyang Hou. Now the case is over. He can do the rest. good.”

He Cheng said hurriedly: “Thanks to Lord Hou for coming here, if not, I really don’t know what to do with the official.”

Huo Weilou was too lazy to listen to his compliments, only instructed: “This Hou will write to Hou Xinyang and His Highness II to explain that you must be fair in hearing this case without any worries.”

The most worrying thing in He Cheng’s heart is how much Jingcheng has views on the case. Hearing this arrangement made by Huo Weilou at this moment, he felt relieved at the moment, “Yes, yes, the government must be fair and strict, thank you Lord Hou.”

The murderer has been arrested, and Huo Weilou is in a high position, so he doesn’t have to worry about other trivial matters anymore. He Cheng asked: “Where is Hou Ye going to come out of the city? Hou Ye is here in Qingzhou, and he hasn’t fulfilled his fellowship as a landlord.

Huo Weilou stared at him, “You will leave tomorrow, you don’t need to spend these efforts.”

He Cheng didn’t expect Huo Weilou to be so anxious, so he would say it again, but he thought that Huo Weilou was vigorous and resolute. He most hated the flattery in the officialdom. He didn’t dare to stay anymore. Next, tomorrow will be an official to send Hou Ye out of the city.”

Huo Weilou was noncommittal. He glanced at the fire scene and saw that Zheng Wenrong was gathering servants to fight the fire, so he didn’t need to bother, so he turned and left here, walked a few steps and looked back, and saw Bo Ruoyou standing beside He Cheng and talking, Huo Guanglie Lie, it reflects her slender figure, and her brows are quite pleasing to the eye.

He withdrew his gaze, and suddenly realized that there was still something in his hand. When he looked down, it was the eardrop of the right person. So he threw it at the father-in-law Fu. He didn’t know what to do, and when he caught it, he was slightly surprised, “This is not Are Miss Zheng’s earrings?”

Huo Weilou suddenly chuckled, “Although it is her eardrop, it is not the one she dropped today.”

When Father Fu heard this, his eyes widened, “Ah… Lord Hou ordered the embroidered clothes ambassador to leave, not to search the treasury at all, but to find the earrings… Before that, Lord Hou whispered to the thin girl for a long time, could it be… “

Huo Weilou’s lips smiled deeper, “She saw Zheng Yunni drop her earrings, and came up with such an idea, she was a clever one.”

Although Zheng Yunni was lying at the time, he was very calm. He was prepared for several rhetoric. Bo Ruoyou was so close. He saw her eardrops fall, but did not rush to ask questions, but looked closely. See There was indeed a suspicion of arson on her body, and she asked Huo Weilou to take a step to speak, and then offered advice, sang and played a good show with Huo Weilou.

Father Fu suddenly realized, “After talking about it for so long, the fake eldest lady was a little flustered. After the Lord Hou asked, she was confused. Finally, the eardrop appeared again as an ironclad evidence, so she could only admit it, so wonderful. How to do it!”

The Shicai case was solved, Huo Weilou’s mood was still a little suspicious, but at this moment, his eyebrows were relaxed by three points. Suddenly he thought of something and he seemed to ask Mr. Fu, “Is there a reply to the news that you sent to the capital?”

Mr. Fu hurriedly said: “The stuff is on the way. Now, looking at the situation, should it be sent directly to Luozhou?”

They will leave Qingzhou tomorrow, and the people in Qingzhou are no longer there. Naturally, they should be diverted to Luozhou.

Huo Weilou should have spoken in denial immediately, but he suddenly felt that Father Fu’s idea was very good, but he didn’t make a decision right away, and only went back to the guest house first.

As soon as he entered the study, Huo Weilou saw two newly arrived official documents on the table, one of which was from Luozhou. He first picked up the official document from Luozhou and opened it. He only looked halfway and frowned. He wrinkled, and when he finished reading it all, his expression was already condensed.

After thinking for a while, Huo Weilou ordered: “Summon Bo Ruoyou—”
