Chapter 263 The Nunnery Murder Case
A few days later, he received a document from the Ministry of Personnel of the court, correcting Yang Qiuchi in time to avoid unjust cases, and successfully resolving the conflict between Han and Miao. Yang Qiuchi was specially appointed as the Tongzhi of Yuanzhou, Huguang Town, and was a sixth rank. At the same time, he continued to serve as the magistrate of Qingxi County.
Yang Qiuchi understood that if he made a contribution, he would definitely be rewarded. He was promoted to another level, which was quite good. He continued to serve as the magistrate of Qingxi County. It should be because of the Ming Chengzu suspected that Jianwen was still hidden in this primeval forest and allowed him to continue to detect it.
On this day, Yang Qiuchi went to the hall and returned to the inner yard. Mrs. Bai and Bai Sumei were waiting for him in the living room. Mrs. Bai asked Yang Qiuchi to take Bai Sumei to the small garden building where Yang Qiuchi, Wuchang Mansion, to live.
Yang Qiuchi immediately understood what they meant. Bai Sumei lived at Yang Qiuchi's house before she even passed the door. She would gossip forever. She was filial to her father now, and this gossip was not nice to say.
Although Yang Qiuchi couldn't bear to leave Bai Sumei, he understood their ideas. He called Qin Zhihui and Tang Qing to make up his plans and felt that Mrs. Bai and the others had to consider them. Everyone felt it was reasonable, so Yang Qiuchi had to agree. There were Yang's mother, Feng Xiaoxue and others in Wuchang Mansion, and they took care of each other.
Since she was going to send Mrs. Bai and the others to Wuchang, Yang Qiuchi decided to send Qin Zhihui together. Qingxi County was too poor and nothing to do. If she was with Yang's mother and the others in Wuchang Prefecture, Qin Zhihui would be well taken care of and also make Yang's mother happy.
As soon as Yang Qiuchi proposed this idea, everyone thought it was good. Although Qin Zhihui was reluctant to leave Yang Qiuchi, she also knew the importance of the children in her belly to her. For the sake of the children, she had to separate from her husband temporarily. Yuechan went to Qin Zhihui's personal maid, of course she had to go back with her.
After the decision was made, Yang Qiuchi asked Xia Ping to leave five female guards to protect Song Qing, and the rest were Xia Ping to escort Mrs. Bai Sumei and Qin Zhihui to Wuchang. However, Yang Qiuchi was still worried and appointed Nangong Xiong to escort with twenty male guards, and wrote a letter to Luo Qianhu himself, asking him to send additional Jinyiwei to protect the small garden building where Mrs. Bai Sumei and others lived.
Qin Zhihui and Bai Sumei were worried that so many guards would leave, and Yang Qiuchi would be in danger. Yang Qiuchi said that with Song Yuner's master Liu Ruobing, she would not be in danger. Only then did they feel relieved.
Yiyi reluctantly sent them away, and the inner yard became much cleaner all of a sudden. Yang Qiuchi was a little uncomfortable, so he asked Ke'er and the seven Yang's singing and dancing troupes to play music, sing and dance, and Shuang'er and Xue'er and two sisters dance Miao dances, which became lively again.
Now only Song Qing and Hong Ling are serving in bed, mainly Song Qing, who are only serving in bed during menstruation. After all, Hong Ling is just a maid who is a wife and cannot take turns.
On this day, all the constables sent by Yang Qiuchi to neighboring prefectures and counties came back, but they did not bring any good news. In recent years, there have been several murders and corpses, including heads, limbs, hands and feet, and breasts. However, a long time has passed, the scene has been destroyed long ago, and the body has been buried. Blood clothes and other valuable items have also been burned with the burial.
The files of similar cases have been copied back. After Yang Qiuchi finished reading them, these cases have one thing in common: the deceased are all adult women in their twenties and thirties, both rich and poor, and they are all married. There are no traces of fighting on the scene and their joints are twisted and dislocated.
However, the corpse pattern is written too simply and vaguely, so there is not much useful information.
Judging from the copied information, it is at least proved that Yang Qiuchi's judgment is correct. The murderer should have an antisocial personality and is a series of serial murder cases, and he will continue to be killed in the future.
Yang Qiuchi told Master Jin about his judgment and asked him to draft official documents to report to the Huguang Censorate, requiring that these cases be solved together and be responsible for the occurrence of similar cases throughout the province at any time. Once they occur, they should immediately notify him to go to the investigation, in order to find clues as soon as possible.
The Huguang Censor Shi, the Censor of the Censor, was certainly obeyed Yang Qiuchi's suggestion. After the official documents were reported, he was quickly approved. The Censor of the Censor had reported the whole province to the whole province and handed over the cases of these dismemberment cases to be solved by Yang Qiuchi, the magistrate of Qingxi County. If similar cases are found, report them directly to Yang Qiuchi and protect the scene.
More than a month has passed, but there is no news. Yun Tianqing, the leader of the Miao village, often comes to Yang Qiuchi's yamen to find Yang Qiuchi to drink. He had already sent someone to search the primeval forest that was hundreds of miles apart. However, the primeval forest is too large to hide anywhere, and it is difficult to find it. Besides, Jianwen has been missing for so many years and has been hiding for a long time. Where can I find it by searching?
Song Qing and Hongling have never been pregnant. Both of them are very depressed, and Yang Qiuchi is even more depressed. They are still young and are only sixteen years old. Take your time.
Song Yun'er had arrived at Ningguo Mansion safely and wrote a letter to be taken back by a female guard to Yang Qiuchi, saying that her mother was very ill and she wanted to accompany her mother for a while and could not come back yet.
After Song Yun'er left, Liu Ruobing kept a distance from Yang Qiuchi. Nothing happened at all and she would not let Yang Qiuchi enter her room. Yang Qiuchi wanted to use this opportunity to increase the relationship between the two, but unexpectedly it was the result, and she was even more depressed.
Nangong Xiong and Xia Ping brought the guards to protect Mrs. Bai Sumei, Qin Zhihui and the little maid Yuechan have returned after they arrived at Wuchang Mansion safely. They brought back a letter from Feng Xiaoxue and reported that Mrs. Bai Sumei and Bai Sumei lived in the garden building. Luo Qianhu sent a team of female Jinyiwei to protect her.
After Yang's mother and Feng Xiaoxue knew that Qin Zhihui was pregnant, she was very happy and took care of Qin Zhihui and the giant pandas in the national treasure. Yang's mother and Feng Xiaoxue already knew about getting engaged with Bai Sumei. The two families often walked around and took care of each other. The business was in charge of the shopkeepers from all over the country, and the accounts were very clear. Yang Qiuchi was relieved.
It is already June, Qingxi County is in a mountain valley, and the weather is humid and stuffy. This is the first summer when Yang Qiuchi travels to the Ming Dynasty. Without air conditioning fans, I really don’t know how to spend the summer.
At noon that day, it was so hot that Hongling put a bamboo lounge chair for Yang Qiuchi on the underside of a large locust tree in the inner court. Yang Qiuchi only wore a coat and shorts (made by Yang Qiuchi taught Hongling) and lay on the lounge chair to cool off. Hongling slapped him a big palm fan behind him, which was very comfortable.
At this time, I heard the drums in the yamen lobby ringing loudly, and someone complained. Today, there will be no complaints. However, urgent cases such as murder cases are not subject to the date of complaints. You can report to the county master at any time to accept the case.
Yang Qiuchi was shocked. Could it be that a murder occurred?
After a while, the doorman Zhang Ma hurriedly ran in and reported that a nun from a nunnery on a nearby mountain came to report that a murder occurred in the nunnery.
Yang Qiuchi smiled bitterly, why did even have a murder in a nun? What kind of world is this? When he heard Zhang Ma say that the nun's breasts were cut off by someone, he was shocked. Could it be that the serial killer who killed people and corpses finally took action again?
Although it is very stuffy, you still have to wear official robes when you appear.
Under Hongling's service, Yang Qiuchi wore an official robe, took a forensic physical evidence investigation box, took the follower, the division and the yamen offenders. He set off in an official sedan chair surrounded by the guards and the yamen runners.
Liu Ruobing was wearing a white dress and rode his own red horse next to Yang Qiuchi's official sedan chair. On weekdays, Liu Ruobing rarely talks to Yang Qiuchi and does not meet Yang Qiuchi. Now there is a rare opportunity. Yang Qiuchi picked up the curtain of the sedan chair and chatted with Liu Ruobing, but Yang Qiuchi often said ten words, and Liu Ruobing could say one, and his tone was faint, which made Yang Qiuchi very uncomfortable and had to shut up.
This nunnery is on a downhill mountain in Qingxi County. The mountain is called Yizhifeng Peak. The nunnery is near the top of the peak. When he arrived at the foot of the mountain, Yang Qiuchi looked up and saw that no wonder the mountain is called Yizhifeng Peak. It really pointed directly into the sky like a finger. The mountain was very steep.
It is impossible to ride a horse and sit in a sedan chair, so you can only walk up the mountain.
It took two hours to climb from the foot of the mountain to the nunnery on the top of the mountain. Yang Qiuchi was so tired that he was sweating profusely and panting.
Even the guards such as Nangong Xiong were panting like a cow and sweating like rain, but Liu Ruobing's face did not change and his heart was not beating, and there was nothing wrong with it.
The abbot of the nunnery, Faming Jingci, is over 60 years old and has a little fat. He is kind and kind. He heard that the county magistrate has come to investigate the case, so he quickly came out. But Yang Qiuchi didn't have time to pay attention to her and sat on the stone steps in front of the main hall of the nunnery, panting like a bellows.
Seeing Yang Qiuchi's appearance, Liu Ruobing smiled faintly: "You really should practice some martial arts. It's not for anything else. It's convenient to go out to handle cases in the future."
Yang Qiuchi panted and said, "Yes, senior, I told you to teach me martial arts last time, but after Yun'er left, you ignored me. I wouldn't teach you even if I want to learn from you."
Liu Ruobing said in a faint voice like a silver bell: "Wait until Yun'er comes back, let her teach you." #039;
Yang Qiuchi gasped for a few breaths, shook his head and said, "I won't do it. Yun'er is your apprentice. If she teaches me again, then I won't become your apprentice? I won't do it!"
"What kind of disciples are you? I just asked her to give you some methods to strengthen your body. It's not that you accept you as your disciple. If you want to accept your disciple, she is not qualified."
Yang Qiuchi was fooling around: "I don't want her to teach, I want you to teach, senior, if you teach me yourself, I will definitely learn well." He smiled and blinked, "If you personally guide your martial arts, I will study hard, and I may be better than the blue!"
"My martial arts skills are not suitable for men to learn, and you have to practice hard since childhood. You have only practiced them now, and you no longer expect to become grand."
