The duke of the governor's family is leaving again

Chapter 200 Four Two Golden Locks
"Master, brother, get up, I'll remember." Chen Yuan stepped forward to help Zeng Chi get up.

Zeng Shuisheng also came over to support his grandfather and patted the dust off his body. He didn't forget to complain, "Grandpa, why don't you let me lie on the ground, you won't be cold if you lie on the bed."

"When you are a grandfather, you don't know that the ground is dirty? How can your grandfather have your waist?" Zeng Chi had no choice but to give in and gave his grandson a hard look.

Shui Sheng soon understood, with a look of shame on her face.

And Chen Yuan has already taken out the drawing board, silently wrote down the posture of the two corpses, and handed it to Zeng Chi for a look, "Master, do you think so?"

It would still be different for a living person to act as a burnt corpse, but on Chen Yuan’s drawing paper, coupled with her understanding of the burnt corpse, the poses played by the two of them were supplemented, the degree of curling of the limbs was strengthened, and I also drew the twisted fingers.

Zeng Yuzuo nodded again and again, feeling in his heart that Chen Yuan was born to eat this bowl of rice, and his talent is really incomparable in the world.

The lifelike corpse looked as terrifying and ferocious as a burnt ghost escaped from the underworld. Zeng Shuisheng was so frightened that he rolled his eyes and fell to the ground on the spot.

I didn't expect him to be stimulated even when he looked at a painting.

Chen Yuan and Zeng Chi hurriedly supported the big man and moved him to the bed to lie down.

Chen Yuan couldn't absolve himself of the blame for scaring the senior brother, "Master, I didn't intend to scare the senior brother on purpose."

Zeng Chi looked at Shui Sheng's eyes, and shook his head without looking, "This kid is tall and big, but he is timid, so I don't blame you."

There are countless distressed words.

But Chen Yuan still couldn't help blaming herself, it seems that in the future, drawing corpses will have to avoid the elder brother.

"He's been like this all the time, he'll be fine after a while, let's leave him alone."

Zeng Chi covered Shui Sheng with a thin quilt, walked to the table, took a gulp from the jug, "It's just that he's unconscious, no one cares about me drinking anymore."

Everyone in the yamen knew that Shui Sheng was afraid of corpses, but the corpse he painted was too vivid. What Chen Yuan could do was to be nicer to the elder brother in the future.

Putting down the big stone in her heart, Chen Yuan picked up the cardboard and asked, "Master, where was the door of this room at that time?"

"When the corpse on the bed straightened up, the right arm was pointing in that direction. The one lying on the bed was Sheng Dongyue. She should have been calling for help." Over the past few decades, Zeng Yuzuo has seen too many corpses, and talking about it doesn't affect him. He eats meat.

Added the position of the door on the paper.

The door, maid Miaoyun, and Sheng Dongyue on the bed are all vivid on the paper.

Strangely, the three are not on the same straight line.

Miaoyun paid homage to her parents and caused a fire. She was afraid that people would be punished if they found out, so she wanted to put out the fire by herself, but the fire was getting bigger and bigger, so she ran into the house to wake up the eldest lady.

In this race against time, she should have gone straight for the eldest lady after entering the room, there was no reason for her to deliberately turn a corner.

"Is there a screen in Missy's room?"

Zeng Chi understood what Chen Yuan was suspicious of. "There is no screen in the ancestral house. Maybe Miao Yun appeared here because she fell to the ground after entering the house, and because of the pain of the fire, she rolled on the ground."

This scenario is also possible.

But Chen Yuan still felt it was weird, seeing Sheng Dongyue's personal maid Miao Yun coming in to save her, she should reach out to her for help, but she pointed in the direction of the door.

According to the records in the file, when the servant girl of the ancestral house found out that the house was on fire, they were blocked by the raging fire and could not enter the eldest lady's yard to fight the fire.

According to the intensity of the fire, when the servant girl came to rescue her, Sheng Dongyue was already in a coma or died. Why was she struggling to point in the direction of the door? Did she have a dying hallucination, thinking that someone outside the door was coming to rescue her?
But this is not scientific at all, even if someone outside the door wants to save her, her body cannot be bent and straight to the front, unless her flexor and extensor muscles are damaged, which will not bend when she is burned.

But Sheng Dongyue is the eldest lady, and she doesn't need to work, so how could she suffer from muscle rupture.

"At that time, how did you prove the identity of the corpse?"

"The corpse on the bed had a longevity lock on its neck. The golden lock was made by Mrs. Sheng at Zhouji Gold Shop when Sheng Dongyue was born. Mrs. Sheng, the old lady, and Steward Sheng all recognized it, as could the owner and craftsmen of Zhouji Gold Shop. have to."

Zeng Chi added, "And Miao Yun's body also has an identity badge."

From this point of view, the identity of the corpse seems to be a certainty.

Chen Yuan still felt that something was wrong. In ancient times, girls were generally not given longevity locks, because they were not worth it.

However, Mrs. Sheng loves her only daughter very much, and the family is not short of money, so it is understandable to prepare her with a longevity lock.

"How much is the Longevity Lock? How big is it?"

"Four liang, the size of fried dumplings."

That is weighing 200 grams.

Children generally wear longevity locks of less than 20 grams so as not to cause damage to the neck.

The four taels of longevity lock should just give a better meaning, who would wear such a heavy thing around his neck every day.

"A woman who got married and gave birth to a child, took off her clothes and hairpins at night, but she slept alone wearing a four-two-fold longevity lock." Chen Yuan asked hesitantly, "Master, don't you think it's strange?"

"You suspect that this female corpse is not Sheng Dongyue." Zeng Chi used to be only in charge of the autopsy, and no officials approached him to discuss the case, but it didn't mean he couldn't think.

Not surprised by his tone, Chen Yuan asked, "Master also doubted at that time?"

Zeng Chi nodded, "Just one thought crossed my mind. Seeing that everyone is sure that this is Sheng Dongyue's body, I don't even have a chance to speak for a little work."

Chen Yuan could understand Zeng Wuzuo's meaning. In ancient times, Wuzuo was equivalent to the coroner's shooter and had no say in the case.

If she hadn't helped clear up Wang Qi's grievances, and contributed a few more methods, and Guanzhi County had just arrived and needed help, Chen Yuan would not have had a say in these cases.

"Master, can you draw the appearance of the longevity lock?"

Zeng Chi took Chen Yuan's cardboard and wicker charcoal pens. He was used to using brushes, but he was not used to hard charcoal pens. The lines drawn by Changshou Lock were crooked, but the shape was roughly drawn.

Chen Yuan noticed the auspicious cloud patterns painted by Zeng Yu on the edge of the Changshou lock, which looked familiar.

After taking the drawing board, she turned a few pages forward and found the incomplete auspicious cloud pattern that was silently written after Yu Shouqian's autopsy.

The rest of the auspicious cloud pattern is on the right gluteus medius of Mr. Yu. At that time, the aunt of the Yu family said that Mr. Yu explained that it was branded on by the woman in the brothel with the eternal knot concentric lock.

Because the scar was so old, the yamen didn't pay much attention to it, and didn't send anyone to confirm this statement.

But looking at it now, Zeng Chi's painting of Sheng Dongyue's longevity lock auspicious cloud pattern is eighty-tenths like the residual pattern on Master Yu's buttocks.

Is this a coincidence?
Could the brand on Master Yu's buttocks be branded by the longevity lock worn by Sheng Dongyue after high temperature?

Just right, Sheng Dongyue died in the sea of ​​fire again.

However, when Sheng Dongyue died in the ancestral house in the countryside of Shengfu, Yu Shouqian had an alibi. Not only his business partners, but also the waiter in the restaurant could prove that he was having a party when the fire broke out that day.

When the mourners went to find him, they happened to meet Yu Shouqian who had left the restaurant and got into a carriage to drive to his ancestral home.

　Everyone is not telling the truth, Chen Yuan can only peel off the cocoons, I don't know if the writing will be messy, but the following clues are combined, and now it looks confused.

　　But it shouldn't be out of normal logic, right?
