The duke of the governor's family is leaving again

Chapter 59
"So what if it's revealed? How do you save it on paper? Are these things slippery? The yamen guards take them around, and if they are accidentally wiped off or broken, how can they be compared with the suspects?" Fingerprints?" Wei Xiancheng was not professional enough. "Or, ask the painter to draw directly with reference to the fingerprint on the object?"

He could think of the powder visualization method, and Wei Xiancheng really didn't realize how peculiar it was, "On these utensils with different shapes, the fingerprints are not necessarily flat, and the fingerprints on the flute are even more so around the body of the column. , If one misreads, you will lose a thousand miles, and what if you catch the wrong person?"

"The iodine fumigation method changes color twice so that everyone sees Li Feigao a little bit. This is also her cleverness. And this method is wonderful because the fingerprints are originally hidden on the paper, but the fingerprints are only visible."

Wei Xiancheng's mouth was dry with scolding, he picked up the teacup to moisten his throat, then pointed at Chen Yuan with a beard and stared and scolded, "Actually, Li Fei, you didn't take fingerprints as you said at the beginning. Let the fingerprints Revealing is not a credit, everyone can think of powdering to reveal fingerprints, it’s just a matter of time, you are just preempting the opportunity to exaggerate to deceive the superior, let us make a trip for you in the middle of the night, and fine you half a year’s salary Too much."

Under the cover of the night, Liu Yanchun cast a cold glance at Wei Xiancheng. Hindsight is not uncommon, and it was the first time he had seen such a high-sounding hindsight that he was not ashamed of.

Even just making the fingerprint visible is a great achievement, Wei Xiancheng actually wanted to use exaggeration to cover up all the credit for the little girl.

What is right and what is wrong, even if it's just the current benefits of fingerprints, Wei Xiancheng really doesn't understand?

He is too understanding.

He doesn't want others to understand.

He wanted to mislead the inexperienced magistrate to think that this was a half-baked idea that was incomplete and not good enough for the emperor to see.

Liu Yanchun turned his head inadvertently, glanced at Guan Zhixian, and found that this time he didn't show disappointment or nervousness following Wei Xiancheng's provocation, but completely ignored Wei Xiancheng's words and concentrated on watching forward.

Squinting his eyes to hide his thousands of thoughts, Liu Yanchun also turned to look at the young senior sister Guan Zhixian was looking at, and slightly curled his lips, he knew that she never spoke big words.

Even if she is dumb and can't speak, she will "talk" and do what she says.

As soon as Wei Xiancheng's criticism of Chen Yuan came to an end, everyone watched the little girl take out a thing as transparent as a cicada's wing and the size of a Pai Gow, and stuck it on the white fingerprint on the inkstone.

Everyone had guesses in their hearts, and they didn't dare to disturb her. They watched patiently as her skillful hands tore it lightly and slowly, and the white fingerprint sticky on the black inkstone was completely removed by the transparent paper.

Surprise filled Guan Zhixian's face, and he shouted, "The fingerprint extraction was successful! Quickly bring it up and let me have a look."

Lieutenant Ge County was also full of anticipation. This transparent thing like cicada's wings is soft and thin, and can stick to powder fingerprints. It immediately dispelled many worries in his heart. He originally thought that he would have to wait for capable people in the long years to come. To solve the fingerprints on more complicated utensils, I didn't expect the little girl to be so thoughtful.

Zeng Chi also stroked his white beard in relief, this apprentice is even better than him, how could he accept such a genius!I don't know if her mind is always full of whimsical ideas, whether she can think of solutions to those old and strange cases...

Chen Yuan couldn't speak to refuse the magistrate's order, Liu Yanchun smiled and cupped his hands, "Please wait a moment, magistrate, and submit it immediately after the second senior sister extracts, marks, and confirms all the fingerprints."

"Okay, okay." Guan Zhixian also saw that Chen Yuan pasted the glued fingerprints on the paper again, and picked up a pen to write something aside, and knew that he was too anxious, "Take your time, don't worry. "

Chen Yuan pressed the extracted fingerprints and pasted them on various colored papers prepared early in the morning.

The white powdered fingerprints are stuck to the black paper.

Fingerprints of black fingerprints, brown, red and other colored powders are pasted on white paper.

And write clearly on the side, which artifact it was extracted from, and how many fingerprints there are on the artifact, and the order of extraction and the upper and lower positions are all marked one by one.

After she successfully extracted and saved all the fingerprints, she handed the final product to Guanzhi County.

Guan Zhixian took the four pages of paper carefully, feeling that he was holding his own future, and even a little force was worried that the paper would be torn.

He scanned the clear and distinct fingerprints on the paper one by one, all kinds of excitement were incomparable to ordinary people.

For such an important verification process, Guan Zhixian has to go through the purpose himself, so how can he rest assured that only others will verify it, "Wei Xiancheng, Ge Xianwei, Xiao Zhu, come, let's verify and verify together."

"Yes!"

Regardless of the county magistrate's orders, Lieutenant Ge will take one by one to verify.

At this moment, Wei Xiancheng already understood that it was useless to say anything else, that dumb girl would never fight an uncertain battle, she was a thoughtful person, and these fingerprints would definitely correspond one by one.She didn't say anything, she just talked about the facts, but instead made his various provocative actions just now look like a clown.

He just wanted to be quiet at the moment, and it would be best if no one noticed him.

There is the enthusiastic Guan Zhixian, and there is also Ge ​​Xianwei who is actively verifying that it is only for the convenience of solving the case in the future.

During the period, Guanzhi County quietly called the yamen servants to give some instructions, and several yamen servants rode back and forth, not knowing what he was going to do.

"Junior Sister, drink tea."

While the adults were verifying the fingerprints in person, Zeng Shuisheng poured a cup of strong tea and handed it to Chen Yuan who was packing up.

This level of staying up late is nothing to Chen Yuan, but she is willing to accept that she can continue her life with strong tea.

In the past, she used to stay up late relying on coffee, but in ancient times, she had no money to buy tea... It's sad to think about it.

Chen Yuan smiled and nodded to Zeng Shuisheng. This innocent and simple boy is very nice, like a brother next door.

I took a sip of the tea. In fact, the tea is not very good, but it is natural and rich, and the taste that is too astringent can also refresh the mind.

Liu Yanchun who didn't know when came over, took the teacup from Chen Yuan's hand, put it under his nose and sniffed it, frowning with disgust, "Senior Brother, why did you give this tea to Senior Sister? Children don't like to drink this kind of bitter and astringent low-quality tea."

Poor quality tea?
Zeng Shuisheng was puzzled and a little embarrassed. Is there any other tea in Yizhuang?
But this is already the best tea that can be produced in Yizhuang. After thinking about it, the younger sister and younger brother used to be young masters and ladies in the capital. They have never drank any good tea. White water, they must not be used to this tea.

So he suppressed the grievance in his heart, but this was also Grandpa's wish. Grandpa saw that his junior sister had worked hard for so long before he asked him to bring it over, but Zeng Shuisheng didn't want to embarrass Grandpa, "Then I will buy good tea tomorrow. Invite junior sister to eat."

Liu Yanchun put the teacup on the table casually, and said nonchalantly, "What good tea can you buy with that little money?"

"..."

Liu Yanchun's speech tonight must have been too unpleasant, so Chen Yuan pushed him to pay more attention to what he said.

Liu Yanchun turned around and glared at her, then walked away, leaving Chen Yuan puzzled.
