The punishment of the female imperial court

Chapter 61 Where Did The Mud Come From? [It's the third watch, please book first! 】

The rain outside the window was a little weaker, but the wind did not diminish the heroic posture.

The white window paper was blown out into a full diamond shape and pressed into the room, making people feel the momentary pressure.

"Don't be crazy," Yu Qiansi patted Zhang Yilun's head, as if to appease the little beast.

"Furthermore, even if a silk thread can scratch a finger, it is impossible to cut off the head anyway."

But she also had a problem, what the hell is this.

Boyi on the side looked at the pane, as if he was dazzled by the gust of wind that hadn't yet blown in.

He thought of a possibility, and immediately denied himself, muttering: "This is impossible."

Sensing Yu Qian's probing gaze, he hesitated for a moment.

But after thinking about it, for so long, Yu Qiansi had already guessed [-]% of where he came from.What's more, even Mrs. Lin mentioned "Martial Arts" tonight.

So he stopped hiding his secrets and told him frankly, "Do you still remember the small country in the west that was annexed by the Geer tribe in Northern Qi seven years ago?"

Yu Qiansi looked bewildered.

"Dan country?" It was Zhang Yilun who reacted first.

"That's right." Mentioning this name, Boyi's expression was serious.

In the northwest region outside Fengyang Pass, there are mostly nomadic peoples.These scattered small tribes originally lived a comfortable life living along the water.But after the Northern Qi became stronger, these small tribes were gradually pushed westward many times in order to compete for water sources and fertile pastures.Later, under the call of a hero, these small clans united and established a country named "Dan", which means the rising sun at birth.

"Have you ever seen a lasso?"

"Sometimes herders, in order to control the horses and sheep, will put a rope around the head horse or sheep and order it to change direction."

"It is said that in Dan Kingdom, three of the most valiant warriors possess a special weapon. It is like a metal noose. Or more precisely, a noose. It is rumored that the silk noose is abnormal. Sharp. They attach a metal ball to the end of the wire, and it has a lot of weight when thrown."

"Relying on these three threads, they were invincible in the initial battle against Bei Qi."

It's a pity that this weapon disappeared after Dan was destroyed.

In Boyi's eyes, there are still some afterimages of memories that have not completely dissipated: "This is the only weapon I can think of that may match the wound in front of me. It's just... I don't know whether it is a complete silk thread or a Like this wound, there is a small knot in the middle that suddenly becomes thicker."

After all, at that time, their vitality was seriously injured, and they could only watch the tigers fight from a distance.Most of the time, I just hear specious battlefield rumors.

Zhang Yilun at the side heard this weapon, touched another candy and chewed it.

His eyes glowed, he was very happy, and he completely lost the fear just now: "Silk thread kills people? It really looks like a storybook!"

Yu Qiansi raised her head and looked at Liu Xiaoxing, who was hidden in the darkness and placed on the leftmost side of a row of corpses.

She still remembered what Shang Fu said, that Princess Jianwen, who inherited Feng Wuxiu, went to Dan country with her relatives.

She looked at her fingertips, as if recalling the feeling of being cut by silk threads.

Metal like silk?
Can someone really have such a smelting skill?This not only needs to be thin enough to be lethal, but also requires the metal to be flexible.Otherwise, I'm afraid it will break into several pieces if it bends slightly.

She lowered her head slightly to stare at the flickering candle, closed her eyes, and the outline of the fire still remained in the darkness of the void.

From the tip of the right finger resting on the edge of the table, there was the sound of Lingling in Yuli Qiankun again.

Boyi raised his beautiful eyebrows, already seeing the strangeness, and asked, "What did you think of?"

Yu Qiansi clenched his right hand into a fist and did not answer.

Bypassing Boyi, he reminded: "It's getting late, there are still two corpses here that haven't been checked."

She walked to the end, and quickly lifted off the straw mat that covered the corpse. The mutilated corpses of the Liu family's mother and daughter captured every corner of the house unreservedly with a heavy, earthy smell of decay.

The poor and white mother and daughter died one after another. The kind people in the alley managed to scrape together two thin coffin boards, found a place to bury them shallowly, and settled the funeral.

But Yu Qiansi's attention stopped on the young Liu Xiaoxing.

I heard before that she was dressed in a strange way that day, but now that I saw it with my own eyes, I realized how strange it was.

The clothes were generally made of light-colored coarse cloth, but they had been re-cut to properly reveal the graceful figure of the young woman with bumps and convexities.Not only that, but the cuffs, neckline, joints of the shoulders, and many irregularities in the lower skirt were all replaced with beautiful silk pieces.

The joints between the coarse cloth and the satin are also carefully embroidered with beautiful embroidery patterns.It perfectly blends a variety of completely different materials together, and it is natural.When the candlelight danced lightly, there was still a faint feeling of embroidery patterns flowing.

However, some kind of gray stain was stained on the clothes, which spread out in large irregular shapes, and after the stain dried, the edges were outlined with black streaks.

The uniqueness and indescribable beauty of this dress, even after being buried in the ground for more than ten days and covered by a large number of unknown stains, it still catches people's attention.

Although the corpse had begun to rot now, she could still see Liu Xiaoxing's figure in front of her, and suddenly remembered the phrase that Shang Fu often said "beauty is in the bones but not in the skin".

Like this, it's a beauty bone.
No wonder, he almost won that day.

The embroidery skills on the clothes are so superb, naturally no one would doubt the phoenix dance embroidery on the sachet.

Zhang Yilun clasped his hands together, murmured something, and then started to do it.

On the other hand, Boyi helped Yu Qiansi check the details.

The three of them cooperated tacitly, and after a while, the inspection of Liu's mother and daughter was over.

Zhang Yilun breathed a sigh of relief, the workload tonight is really a bit heavy.

Stretching for a long time, she said, "Sister Yu, I've finished the investigation. Liu Xiaoxing should have hanged herself, and her mother also died of natural causes."

There is no problem with the time of death, which is consistent with the interrogation and the statements of eyewitnesses.

Yuqiansi was immersed in checking the wounds on Liu Xiaoxing's body. Hearing this, he moved his shoulders, leaned half against the wall, turned the Yuli Qiankun in his hand, and sorted out all the clues so far.

There is no doubt about Liu Xiaoxing's point.

She also has scratches on her body, and these scars, like Zhao Zhaodi, have also been cleaned and taken care of.

But her scars appeared on her hands and cheeks.

That's where it gets weird.

Not only were there scratches on the palms and backs of the hands, but also on the cheeks, but not on the nose.

If you fell to the ground and hurt your cheeks, how could your nose be intact.not to mention
She looked at the scratches on the back of Liu Xiaoxing's hands and sighed, and roughly guessed what was going on.

In addition to that, in addition to the many dried black stains on the clothes, there was a thick layer of black mud on the soles of the feet.

She scraped some black mud with a small spatula and examined it carefully by candlelight.

This is a sandy soil mixed with black mud.

"Could it be that he fell while walking? That's why there's so much mud on his feet." Seeing Yu Qiansi fighting with a pile of black mud, Bo Yi came over to watch the excitement.But after thinking about it for a long time, this is the only reason, or it can reasonably explain the strange abrasions and mud on the soles of the feet.

Yu Qiansi shook her head, pointed to the black mud on the soles of her feet, and stared at him.

He said firmly: "No, it is absolutely impossible because she is in the capital."
