103. Behind the scenes (4)

Gu Xiaojia finally couldn't help laughing out loud.

Tao Mo looked at him blankly.

There was no movement in the carriage.

Gu Xiaojia said: "You really miss my young master and think crazy."

Tao Mo's face turned red.

Gu Xiaojia opened the curtain and said, "Look, where is my son?"

Tao Mo didn't dare to look at it at first, but later he heard that there was really no movement inside, so he looked inside tentatively.

Sure enough, no one was there.

"Shenzhi didn't come?" He felt disappointed in his heart.

Gu Xiaojia said, "Although the person didn't come, but..." He compared his fingers.

Tao Mo leaned into her body and saw a long silver satin cover, which should have a scroll inside.

Gu Xiaojia reached out and took it out and handed it to him.

Tao Mo took it, took off the cover, and slowly unfolded the scroll-

A cold and arrogant Gu She appeared on the paper. He stood under the old pineapple, half-sided, and looked here, lifelike.

Tao Mo felt in a trance that he seemed to have really lived from the painting, staring at him upright.

"Cough, young master." Old Tao gently hit him with his elbow.

Tao Mo came back to his senses, and then raised his eyes to see Gu Xiaojia laughing desperately. "He, what else has he said?"

Gu Xiaojia spread his hands and said, "It's gone."

Tao Mo touched the scroll with love.

Gu Xiaojia muttered, "I really don't understand. I'm going to get married in one day. Why are you sending a painting for?"

Tao Mo said: "With painting, this day will not be so long."

Gu Xiaojia shook his shoulders, "I'm going back. Do you have any paintings to say?"

Of course there are. And it's thousands of words. But when he's talking, he can't even say another word.

Seeing his hesitant look, Gu Xiaojia shook his head and said, "If not, I will leave."

"Oh." Tao Mo said anxiously, "Just say, I, I, look forward to that day."

"Which day?" Gu Xiaojia blinked in disbelief.

Lao Tao said behind Tao Mo: "If you don't understand, it doesn't mean that Mr. Gu doesn't understand."

Gu Xiaojia curled his lips and drove away in the carriage.

Tao Mo looked at the painting several times before he reluctantly put it away.

Lao Tao suddenly said, "Cui Jiong is here."

Tao Mo looked up and saw Cui Jiong walking over hurriedly, with a disgusting stench on his body, "Report to Lord, Miss Wu's body has been found."

Tao Mo and Lao Tao looked at each other and followed him quickly back to the yamen.

After experiencing the blame from the prefect of Qincheng, Tao Mo knew that the coroner had to be there, so he went straight to the mortar room.

The coroner was afraid of causing him to smoke, so he started soapy cerevisia early, and handed him a piece of ginger and stuffed it into his mouth.

Even so, the stinking corpse still rushed into Tao Mo's nose one after another, making him almost disgusted.

The coroner looked at Tao Mo and said, "Mr. Tao, can you start?"

Tao Mo nodded.

The coroner walked to the corpse and slowly placed his hands on the corpse.

Because the room was dark, Tao Mo was not very clear about each of their actions, and could only guess the results from the length of his actions.

It took a long time.

The coroner said, "I'll take off her clothes first."

Tao Mo was shocked and Han Jiang said, "She is a woman."

The coroner said: "In my eyes, she is just a corpse with a grievance."

Tao Mo knew that he had made up his words and shut his mouth and dared not speak again.

"Sir." Cui Jiong suddenly stood outside and shouted.

"What's the matter?" Tao Mo stood up.

Cui Jiong said: "The Wu couple is coming to watch."

Tao Mo said: "Is it possible?"

Cui Jiong said: "It should be approved."

Tao Mo said: "Take them in."

"Yes." Cui Jiong took the order and left.

The coroner suddenly said, "Don't you think it's strange?"

Tao Mo said: "What's strange?"

The coroner said: "I heard that Wu Youcai and Lord Cui were walking around the mass grave for a long time before they found the body. Since the Wu couple loved their daughter so much, they were so painful that they could not help but fight against the nephew of Grandmaster Shi, how could they throw her away at the mass grave?"

Tao Mo said: "Maybe they... are too poor?"

The coroner said: "What's the difficulty of finding Zhang Broken Mat to wrap it?"

Tao Mo was asked.

The coroner said: "There are frostbite on the feet of this corpse."

Tao Mo said: "Winter just passed, and it is not surprising that there are frostbite."

The coroner suddenly picked up the oil lamp from the table and walked into the corpse.

Tao Mo said: "What's wrong?"

The coroner said: "It's no surprise that frostbite, what about... kiss marks?"

Tao Mo was stunned.

It happened that the Wu couple entered the door.

Wu Guo said loudly: "It must be that beast that forced her, so that she fell down this trace!"

The coroner covered the body with his clothes, turned to look at the Wu couple and said, "Is this really Miss Wu?"

Takeyukaku: "Of course. Will I admit my mistakes to my daughter?"

The coroner said: "This is exactly what makes me strange. Why did the two daughters who kept shouting suddenly become... sons?"

Wu Youcai and Wu Guo's body shook suddenly, and their faces turned pale.

The coroner said: "You can't even tell whether you are a child or a woman, right?"

The Wu couple's body was trembling like a sieve and they didn't dare to look up.

Tao Mo came over, covered his nose and said, "You mean he is..."

The coroner lifted up the sermon covering the body, "Please see, sir."

Tao Mo took a look and was able to confirm that the body belonged to a male. "Two, how do you explain this?"

Wu Guo looked at Wu Youcai in fear.

Takeyuca grabbed her arm and said calmly: "She, she has died for too long, and I admit my mistake for a moment."

The coroner said: "Even his daughter can admit her mistakes, it's really a strange story."

Although Tao Mo really wanted to talk about the case, he definitely didn't want to talk about the case here. So he thanked the coroner and asked the yamen runners to see the two of them bring them to court.

It was a two-dimensional state of mind when I started again.

Last time he was promoted to the court, Tao Mo felt sorry for the two old men who were sent to the black-haired man and suffered such a disaster for no reason. But now, he couldn't help but believe Shi Qianshan's words. If they hadn't framed them intentionally, how could they admit their mistakes even if their daughter is a man or a woman?

"Wu Youcai. You haven't come to the real trick?" Tao Mo picked up the gavel and patted it heavily on the table.

Takeu Youcai's body shook and crawled on the ground, "Everything I said is true, sir, please tell me."

"It's true?" Tao Mo said, "Do you still think the body you found is your daughter?"

Wu Youcai said: "Sir, I know. I was confused after losing my daughter and recognized the wrong person. Please forgive me."

Tao Mo asked Wu Guo, "You are wrong as well?"

Wu Guo looked at Wu Youcai, lowered his head and said, "The civilian woman doesn't know, but the woman doesn't know anything."

Tao Mo said: "Since you are seeking justice for your daughter, why don't you tell the truth? Or, as Shi Qianshan said, all this is just a carefully planned trap?"

Wu Youcai said: "It was Shi Qianshan who killed my daughter! It was Shi Qianshan who killed my daughter!"

"Where is Miss Wu's body?" Tao Mo asked.

Takeyuca hurriedly got up and said, "I'll go find it. I'll go find it now."

"Wait." Tao Mo hurriedly patted the table with a gavel and said, "I haven't finished asking yet."

Takeucai knelt down again.

Seeing that someone who was enough to be his father kneeled in front of him like this, Tao Mo couldn't bear it and said slowly: "As long as you come here in truth, I will definitely seek justice for you."

Takeyuka lowered his head and didn't speak.

Wu Guo did not raise his head from beginning to end.

Tao Mo couldn't help but think of the benefits of Master Jin. If Master was here, he would definitely mention how he did it.

Just as he was thinking, he saw Master Jin walking in from outside.
