Chapter 75: He died of poisoning, not an accident
In the corridor, there was panic.
Many people heard the screams and hurried out to check the situation. Some people were frightened and ran around.
The madam whom I had just met in the hall also heard the noise and hurriedly ran upstairs with a few servants.
Without asking, Li Xiuran could guess that the few people must have run at the place where the incident happened, and he followed quickly and came to a door of a room.
There were already many people around the door, and the door was wide open. A woman with a beautiful appearance and attractive figure was wearing only a slut, revealing a large area of spring light, but she ignored her completely and sat on the ground with a gloomy face.
"What's wrong, what's wrong? What's wrong?"
The madam squeezed away the crowd and broke into the room, looking at the woman on the ground and asked repeatedly.
Seeing the madam coming, the woman seemed to have found her backbone. She quickly got up and grabbed her with one hand, pointing her with the other hand and said:
"Mom, Lord Lu is dead!"
The women in brothels are usually matched by the madam and the daughter.
On the bed and under the curtains on both sides, a man with his upper body could lie on it without moving.
The madam glanced at her and immediately changed her face: "It's so good, how could she die?"
"I don't know. I just finished it. Lord Lu said he was a little tired and wanted to rest for a while, so he lay on the bed and fell asleep. I didn't care. Unexpectedly, Lord Lu had no movement when he slept. I felt something was wrong, so I called him twice, but there was no reaction. I looked into his breath again, and then I realized that Lord Lu was already exhausted."
The woman cried with the rain, and after saying that, she grabbed the madam tightly: "Mr. Lu's death really has nothing to do with me. I don't know why he died suddenly. I beg my mother to save me."
"Don't be anxious first. The cause of death has not been found out. Don't scare yourself. If it weren't for your actions, the government would definitely not be wronged."
The madam comforted the woman for a moment, then said to the servant: "Go and report to the official immediately, ask the government office to send someone to check why Lord Lu died."
"yes."
The servant agreed and immediately squeezed out of the crowd to report the case.
Lord Lu... It seems that the deceased is still an official, he is a little tired after doing things. How long has it been done? He died after sleeping. He wouldn't be an old man who is too unlucky and will just die suddenly...
Li Xiuran secretly guessed, and while thinking, he squeezed into the room, preparing to go forward to check the deceased.
"Stop, what do you want to do? No one is allowed to approach the body before the government office sends people." The madam immediately scolded.
You also know the protection scene, you know a lot... Li Xiuran looked at her, took out his waist sign and said, "I am the devil's guard. I just heard you say that the deceased died for no reason. I suspect that there are demons in it, and I want to check the situation."
The madam looked at the waist card and his face calmed down: "It turned out to be the Demon Suppressing Guard. Lord Lu died suddenly. It's really strange. I have to check it out, you go and see it."
Although she did not stop her, the madam was not very polite. She must have a background to open such a big brothel in the capital, and Li Xiuran was just a side guard, so she naturally would not pretend to be disgusted with him.
Li Xiuran didn't care either. He put away his waist sign and went to the bed, lifted the curtain, and carefully checked the body.
The deceased was a middle-aged man, about forty years old, with a strong body and bronze skin. He obviously experienced many wind and sun exposure, his face was a little purple and his expression was a little painful. He seemed to have sweated a lot before his death, and the bed was a little soaked.
It looks a bit exhausted, but the deceased is strong and is obviously a monk. His physique is much stronger than that of ordinary people. Can he be so easily slaughtered?
Li Xiuran was puzzled and looked at the madam and said, "Who is the deceased?"
"City Gate Captain, Lord Lu Hui and Lord Lu." The madam looked at him and frowned, "Do you see anything?"
He is indeed a warrior!
And he is also a lieutenant, a sixth-rank military general who can be promoted to this level. At least his cultivation should be in the realm of Shenzang. After opening up the body, his physique has long been transformed. How could such a person die of self-destruction just because he came to the brothel to find a fun place?
Li Xiuran was even more confused and shook his head and said, "The cause of death is not clear, but the deceased has no evil spirit or obvious external injuries. It is not like the cause of a demon."
Without hearing the answer he was expecting, a hint of disappointment flashed across the madam's face and ignored him.
"Get out of the way!"
A shout suddenly came from outside the door, and several yamen runners in blue uniforms watched the crowd at the door walked in. They should be the constable of the government office, and rushed over after receiving the report.
I should know the madam, and when I saw the person in charge, he said hello first: "Madam Xu, I heard from the servant you sent, is someone dead here?"
"Captain Huang, you're here. Lord Lu suddenly died just now. Go and see what's the reason." The madam was happy and pointed to the bed immediately.
"Let me check it out first." Captain Huang nodded, walked to the bed, looked at Li Xiuran next to him, and a little doubt flashed in his eyes, but without asking much, he looked at the body on the bed and checked it carefully.
After a while, he raised his head and looked at the woman beside the madam and said, "Mr. Lu has had sex with you just now?"
Regarding whether she would be implicated, the woman was not shy at all and nodded repeatedly: "After all, Lord Lu is very interested today."
"That's right. The deceased had a weak face, dry blood and qi, and had a lot of night sweats before his death. It should be because of excessive ovulation, which led to accidental loss of yang and death." Captain Huang stood up and said.
"Diet after getting rid of the sun?" The madam looked happy: "In other words, Lord Lu's death was an accident and it had nothing to do with Ruyan?"
"There is still a relationship. If it weren't for Ruyan, Lord Lu would not have died of yang. However, this kind of thing did not violate the law after all, and Miss Ruyan didn't have to worry." Captain Huang smiled.
"Thank you, Captain Huang, for your clarity, and you will be clear about Ruyan." Ruyan burst into tears of joy and bowed to Captain Huang.
The madam also breathed a sigh of relief. After all, the man died here, and he was a court official. If he was murdered, she would be implicated. Now that it was proved that she died by accident, she would not have such concerns.
It's a bit hasty to draw a conclusion so rashly... Li Xiuran frowned slightly. Although the results he had just found were similar to those of this yellow captain, it was also the deceased who had signs of exhaustion, and there was indeed a possibility of sudden death in collapse.
But there are obviously doubts here that cannot be explained. How could the deceased die so easily as a monk?
It would be a bit too hasty to draw conclusions if you don’t understand this.
Li Xiuran frowned and looked at the corpse again. He couldn't help but go forward to check again. He opened his eyelids. The whites of his eyes were normal, his eyes were not prominent, there was no sign of poisoning, no blood stasis on his mouth and nose, and corpse spots...
Um?
Li Xiuran looked at the corpse spots condensed on the surface of the corpse, and suddenly his eyelids twitched.
"Since the cause of death has been found out, Lord Lu just died by accident, and it was not him who killed me, then I will go back to the government office to report my life first." Captain Huang bowed to the madam, and said that, and was about to leave.
"etc."
