Song Dynasty female artist

Chapter 818 A cultivator intervened

This is natural.

After coming out of the government office, Su Yixin comforted An Lan and asked her to take good care of herself, and then left with Gu Qingjue.

The two of them did not go back to the inn, but went to see the place where He Zhi's accident occurred.

The place is not remote at all.

There are tea shops and restaurants on both sides, and there is a river about one foot wide in the middle. The river is not wide, but nearby residents say the river is very deep and people drown every year.

Each street has a corresponding arch bridge. Su Yixin looked into the distance and counted five arch bridges in total.

The accident that happened to He Zhi was the third arch bridge from left to right, which was the arch bridge to their right.

Magistrate Wang was quite capable. After the accident, he sealed off the bridge and guarded it with two government officials at both ends.

"Someone just died here. You can't go there."

As soon as the two of them approached, a government official reminded them, pointing to the adjacent bridge next to them: "You can go that way."

Gu Qingjue took out a token directly from his sleeve this time. The yamen officer took it, carefully identified it, and then nervously returned the token to Gu Qingjue, knelt down on one knee and saluted: "I don't know if this is the Prince of Bohai County, please." Forgive me."

"Well, let's go up there and take a look."

They didn't reveal their identity when they were in the government office just now, because they didn't want the people gathered in the court to think that they were powerful people who would use their power to suppress others.

But Su Yixin had revealed her identity yesterday when she was at Su Zhai. Now that He Zhi is dead, if the people who gathered around Su Zhai to watch the excitement knew that the deceased was the person who caused trouble yesterday, Yixin's identity would be spread immediately.

Now that the identity is revealed, there will be no obstacles in the investigation and the death of He Zhi can be found out faster.

The two of them got on the bridge. After Su Yixin stood still, she crossed her hands and was about to cast a spell when she was stopped by Gu Qingjue.

"What's wrong, I can trace the origin now. As long as we see clearly what happened to He Zhi at that time, we will know how he died, and maybe we can also see the murderer."

"The method that defies heaven will cause harm to you. If you want to find the murderer, there are many clues, let me do it."

Su Yixin understood that Gu Qingjue was worried about her health.

"If it's an ordinary person, I believe you can find it out. I'm afraid it's a cultivator."

"I'll go first."

Two quarters of an hour later, Gu Qingjue shook his head.

He Zhi died late at night. His body was found early in the morning by a woman who was washing clothes nearby and reported it to the police. At that time, the traffic on the bridge had long destroyed the traces.

"I'll do it, don't worry, I'll do what I can."

Even if they can't find the murderer and she didn't kill the person, even if they want to pin this case on her, they still have to find evidence. If there is, it means that someone framed her, and it will be easier to handle!

Su Yixin curled her middle and index fingers slightly and made quick gestures. This is the first time she has traced the origin of this function since Laozhai broke through to the integration stage.

Tracing the past means tracing back to the place where the deceased lived.

When Su Yixin cast the spell, time seemed to stand still at that moment, and then quickly flowed backwards. Every time she went back, Su Yixin consumed a point of spiritual power until a thin layer of sweat broke out on her forehead.

Su Yixin decisively stopped her hand, raised her lips and said to Gu Qingjue: "Although I can't see clearly, one thing is certain. He Zhi's death was not an accident. It was man-made or a cultivator."

The other party seemed to know that she would trace the source and use secret methods to cover up what happened at that time in advance.

Even if her father came, there would be nothing he could do.

"I can't trace it back. Is it because the other party's cultivation level is higher than yours, or is this secret method irreversible?"

The two of them walked under the bridge as they talked: "Erase the traces, you can do it in the transformation stage."

As a result, there are more people who can commit crimes.

"Let's go back to the county office."

Su Yixin: "You want an autopsy?" "If it was done by a cultivator, even an autopsy won't find many clues. Even the time of drowning that the autopsy revealed might be fake."

Gu Qingjue's guess is very reasonable.

"Then what are we going to do when we go to the county government office now?"

"Look for Magistrate Wang."

"Sir, there is someone looking for you outside the door. It is the couple who went to court today."

"What are they here for?"

"I don't know, I'm already in the front hall. Do you want to receive me, Sir?"

Magistrate Wang nodded: "Go."

She was suspected of He Zhi's death. He came here at this time and wanted to know if they had discovered anything.

However, just as Magistrate Wang was on his way to the front office, which was less than half a quarter of an hour, another government official came to report.

Magistrate Wang looked at the officer in shock: "You said Miss Su is the princess of Ruian County?"

"Yes, I have just learned that when we were at Su's house yesterday, Miss Su, who was not Princess Ruian, revealed her identity. The people who were watching at that time knew it. I only found out when I visited and investigated just now, so hurry up Come back and report to the adults."

"Sir, since she is the princess, it is not easy for her to kill a commoner who has no foundation."

"Snapped!"

The officer who spoke was severely beaten by Magistrate Wang.

"You also said that she is the princess. I'm afraid you haven't heard of the reputation of the princess since you have just been in the government office for a year. If she is the princess, then the death of He Zhi is definitely not her fault."

"The lower official, Wang Yuexin, has met Mr. Gu, the princess of Ruian County."

Gu Qingjue raised his hand: "Get up."

Magistrate Wang ushered the two of them into the upper seat and sat down on the right hand side: "I wonder if you two have come to explain something to me."

"It's not an explanation, it's a suggestion."

Wang Yuexin felt that he still had some brains. He was born in the second year of Qingli. When he was a child, he heard from his parents that since he was born, things had gotten better day by day. The Song Dynasty had strong soldiers and horses, and no longer feared being invaded by foreign enemies.

Finally, his family could afford to send him to a private school. At the age of twenty-one, he won the Jinshi Scholarship for the first time, and he was still in the second grade.

He was the pride of their town.

Wang Yuexin also feels that he has the ability to be a good official for both parents. In the past three years, not only all the cases he has solved have been solved, but he can guarantee that there are no unjust, false or wrong cases.

This relies not only on the brain, but also on the ability to discern people's hearts.

It's just that the skills he was proud of seemed not enough in front of the prestigious Master Gu.

"Master Gu, what do you mean..."

"If you know our identities, you must also know that my wife is a cultivator. We just went to check the place where He Zhi died. Although no clues were found, we still learned something."

Wang Yuexin's mind finally started to change: "Did He Zhi die at the hands of a cultivator?"

"I can't be sure, but there must be cultivators involved."

Wang Yuexin narrowed his eyes: "Xiaoguan has also been investigating He Zhi's interpersonal relationships before his death. It is basically certain that he did not know any cultivators. In this case, the murderer probably came for the princess."

Su Yixin's eyes were condensed: "Since you are coming for me, then your master will arrest me."

Wang Yuexin said quickly: "How can this be done! You didn't kill the person! I have asked people to find the outer room. Maybe there will be other clues." (End of Chapter)
