Chapter 145 I'm really an acquaintance

I saw Cui Xizuo feeling around for a long time, and finally found a finely crafted jade button and handed it to Song Qingyou and said: "I didn't come back in time for the wedding. This jade button is my token. If anything happens in the future, I can keep it." This thing goes to Jingzhong Mansion."

It's a bit strange to give buttons when we meet. Song Qingyou was about to refuse, but Xiao Qishu said: "Take it, this is the token we exchanged when we were sworn brothers. It can beat the soldiers of Cui Mansion. Maybe it can be used in the future." Get on."

Song Qingyou didn't refuse after hearing the words.

Originally Cui Xizuo was still acting like an imperial envoy, but when he saw his old friend, he immediately showed his true colors and returned to his military self. He said whatever came to his mind, "What's going on with you?"

Xiao Qishu sighed, "It's a long story."

Cui Xizhuo slapped the table, "Let's make a long story short! With your personality, and with your Xiao family's whole family dying, you can't even kill me and collude with the enemy and treason!"

Song Qingyou couldn't help but laugh, this man is interesting.

Xiao Qishu was already used to this. Cui Xizuo was originally a free-spirited person, but because he needed to establish prestige in the army, he acted like he would not let strangers in.

In fact, Xiao Qishu had already noticed that something was wrong ever since the order to confiscate the house arrived at the Xiao Mansion. However, everything happened too suddenly. The lives of the entire family almost rested on his shoulders, so he could only save his life first.

After that, he was wandering all the way, without giving him a chance to sort it out in detail. Now that he thought about it, there were a lot of loopholes in this matter. Just when he was about to speak, Zhan Wei came back.

An outsider in Cui Xizuo returned to the policy of not allowing strangers in, and asked, "Is there any harvest?"

Zhan Wei waved his hand, and Cui Xizuo's personal soldiers came in carrying a stretcher. Suddenly, a stench filled the air. Some Kushui County government officials who were on duty at the government office immediately couldn't help but vomited out, leaving only Cui Xizuo's relatives. Bing was dedicated to his duties, but his expression was also very exciting.

I didn't see Fang Cheng and the others who went together. I don't know if they fainted from the smell of corpses or because of other reasons.

Under the watchful eyes of everyone, Song Qingyou couldn't take out the mask from the space, so he could only cover his mouth and nose and slow down his breathing as much as possible.

Worthy of being the first arrester of the Gyeonggi Division, Zhanwei didn't seem to smell it at all, and reported: "I found a corpse in the grass five miles outside the city, but it's a pity that it's already corrupted and hard to identify, and a professional autopsy is needed. .”

Need help?Isn’t this an opportunity?

Song Qingyou immediately volunteered, "Kushui County is remote and there is no professional operation, but I know some medical skills, so I should be able to cope with it."

"Wu Zuo is different from ordinary doctors." Zhan Wei frowned.

Song Qingyou nodded in agreement, then spread his hands, "Then do you have a better way?"

Zhan Wei was speechless and looked at Cui Xizuo.

Cui Xizuo pondered for a moment and said, "The top priority is to solve the case. Let Madam-in-law give it a try."

Even though Song Qingyou was mentally prepared, she couldn't help but take a step back when the white cloth covering the body was actually lifted. Seeing the Giant View in real life was much more shocking than reading it in a book.

Although he already knew the cause of death, he still had to do the superficial work. Song Qingyou endured the stench and inspected the surface of the body and said: "The deceased was five feet three inches tall, which is consistent with the height of the county magistrate. At the same time, the clothes on his body are also made of special materials used in official uniforms of this dynasty. , we can basically judge that the deceased should be the county magistrate."

After seeing that Song Qingyou was able to examine the corpse without changing his face, Zhanwei put away his initial disdain, and asked seriously: "I can only see that the death was caused by trauma to the neck, can you see other details?"

With Zhanwei's suggestion, Song Qingyou looked at the chest area, and then said smoothly: "You can clearly see that the blade is long and flat, wide at the front and narrow at the back. The blurred flesh and blood at the wound should be caused by the blood groove on the blade. , and as far as I know, the only weapon that can cause such wounds is the official knife."

"what!"

Everyone was taken aback.

Zhan Wei looked at the wound again without believing in evil, and took out an official knife. After careful comparison, he confirmed that Song Qingyou's judgment was correct and put the white cloth back. Cui Xizuo's face became more solemn when he heard this.

At a young age, he could become a mighty general by relying on military merit, and military merit was not just about going to the battlefield to fight, but also relying on some cleverness. This shows that Cui Xixi was not simple either.

Although Zhanwei was fully responsible for the investigation, the final decision was still in the hands of Cui Xizhuo, so he immediately asked for instructions: "Should we tell the military households in Kushui County about this?"

Cui Xizhuo shook his head and said: "The official knife is specially made by the government, and the blood tank on it is impossible for ordinary blacksmiths to imitate. Therefore, the murderer must be a servant in the government office. Tell the military household that it is likely to scare the snake." Then he ordered loudly: "Today's matter is a secret, and anyone who spreads it will be dealt with by military law!"

"Yes!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Fang Cheng led someone in, followed by Xiao Ningning and Xiao Yiran, "It is said that the body of the county magistrate was found?"

"Isn't this it?" Song Qingyou was caught off guard and lifted the white cloth.

"what!"

Xiao Ningning, who was pampered and pampered, hadn't even seen a chicken killed a few times, let alone such a severely corrupted corpse, and immediately collapsed in Fang Cheng's arms in fright.

In fact, Fang Cheng and Xiao Yiran were not much better, they were just trying to save their face.

Cui Xizhuo has a good relationship with Xiao Qishu, so he naturally recognizes the Xiao family, so when he saw Xiao Ningning and brother and sister, he raised his eyebrows with interest, "What advice does Master Fang have?"

Fang Cheng swallowed his saliva, suppressed his nausea and replied: "Kushui County is poor, and there is no special office in the government office. How do you know that this corpse is the county magistrate?"

Song Qingyou clicked his tongue, "Master Fang, do you just look down on me so much?"

Her medical skills were obvious to all the people in Kushui County, and Fang Cheng could not refute her.

Cui Xizuo knew that he couldn't eat hot tofu in a hurry. Even if he had a suspicion in his mind, the judgment of the case should be based on actual evidence. Otherwise, it would be difficult to convince the public with empty words, and he could only let the murderer leak the truth, so he said: "The county magistrate died of a knife wound. I don't know." Is there a blacksmith shop in the county?”

Fang Cheng thought for a while, and replied: "There is a blacksmith shop, but they only make some farm tools, and there are no weapons."

"Lord Fang!" Xiao Yiran said suddenly, "Didn't the common people report that there were bandits outside the county town to rob the road a few days ago?"

So I was waiting here!Song Qingyou folded his arms and watched their performance quietly.

Fang Cheng immediately picked up and said, "You mean the death of the county magistrate is related to that group of bandits?"

Cui Xizhuo also wanted to see what kind of medicine was sold in the gourd in Fangcheng, and said: "It's just a bandit, as long as you arrest him for a trial, don't you know?"
