Chapter 160
Li Tianxiao stood up and walked towards her. As he approached, Chu Qing's body froze obviously: Talk as soon as you talk, what is he doing here?
Li Tianxiao stood still in front of her, but then he raised his hand, and quickly straightened the hat of the personal guard on her head, and then walked back as if nothing had happened.

Chu Qing blinked slowly, her head was in a mess, and finally she shook her head violently before regaining some sanity, and touched her hat uncomfortably, did she wear it crookedly?
She couldn't help but blushed, and coughed softly: "Your Majesty..."

Li Tianxiao said: "I know you are just worried about letting the murderer go, tomorrow is the sixth day, right?"

Chu Qing nodded: "Yes. On the sixth day, if Xuyun is not the murderer, if it is the fourth victim..."

Li Tianxiao: "I asked a few people from the Tianyi area to go out and take strict precautions around the time. However, I am afraid that the effect will be minimal. Before that, if you can find strong evidence, I will reject the opinion of Zhen Qing's family and send this matter to the public. The case continues to be examined."

Chu Qing's eyes lit up: "Okay! I'll continue to investigate."

Although the effect may not be certain, but there is still some time before tomorrow, and there may be something that can be found from the three victims.

Chu Qing came out of the palace and went to the Ministry of Punishment.

Mr. Zhen breathed a sigh of relief because he finally solved the case. He was very happy to see Chu Qing: "Brother Yu, didn't you go back?"

Chu Qing said: "I want to go to the autopsy room again."

Master Zhen was surprised: "You are..."

Chu Qing: "Isn't the case still pending? I want to go and have a look."

Although Lord Zhen felt that Chu Qing was thinking too much, he was still moved by the other party's serious attitude: "Brother Yu, there are really not many people who are as cautious as you."

Chu Qing smiled and went to the autopsy room.

Because it has been a long time, although the weather is not hot, it is not cold.

Because the case has not yet been finalized, the bodies of the three victims have not been buried, but in order not to corrupt the bodies.

So the body was placed in the ice cellar of the Ministry of Punishment.

After Chu Qing took the key from the Yatou, she carried the autopsy box and went to the only underground ice cellar alone.

The door of the ice cellar is the kind of extremely thick wooden door, but it is better for freezing.

The wooden door was half a meter behind, and when it was closed, it was extremely tight.

After Chu Qing went in, she put the key next to the autopsy box and stayed next to the first corpse.

It was Tianxiang's body.

Because she had seen Tianxiang's body in Manchunyuan before, and because there was nothing unusual, she didn't look at it again.

She took the autopsy sheet from the side and read it again.

The autopsies in the Ministry of Criminal Justice were all veterans, and there were no problems.

She went to see the second body, which was Ding Enshu's body. Because she died in a coma, her eyes were closed.

All over the body, except for the wound on the neck and the wound of being raped, there is nothing else.

Chu Qing checked again carefully, but still found nothing.

The third body was still the same.

She rubbed the sore brows, sat aside, and the surrounding ice made her rub her arms.

The time she can stay in the ice cellar cannot be too long.

Otherwise, the cold air enters the body and it is very easy to get sick.

It's just that they have no clue, could it be... Xu Yun is really the murderer?

But as a monk, Xuyun was so infatuated with Tianxiang back then, how could he have the heart to kill Tianxiang?
Chu Qing returned to Tianxiang's body, and she looked at Tianxiang's frozen body.

Lifted the white cloth.

From the fatal wound on her neck, it continued down, and gradually landed on her chest, lower abdomen...

Ok?
Chu Qing's brows suddenly frowned.

Finally noticed something weird.

She spread her palm out and touched Tianxiang's lower abdomen lightly. I don't know if it was because of her innermost feelings, but she always felt that Tianxiang's lower abdomen was slightly raised.

She suddenly thought of something, and suddenly opened her eyes wide!

No way?
She continued to open her eyes in surprise, and quickly took the autopsy box.

After thinking about it, Tianxiang has no relatives anymore, but her only uncle and aunt sold her.

Having such relatives is equivalent to not having them.

If they were asked to agree to an autopsy, they probably would not agree at all.

She gritted her teeth and simply started to dissect the corpse.

She regretted that she didn't remember it, but because everyone said that Tianxiang was Qingwan, and she died of rape and murder, Chu Qing never thought that the other party might be pregnant.

So who the child belongs to is naturally self-evident.

When Chu Qing finally confirmed her thoughts, she looked at the unformed baby.

Take a breath.

She is almost certain now that Xu Yun is absolutely impossible to be the murderer.

No matter how much Xuyun hated Tianxiang, he would not be able to kill him together with his own child.

What's more, he wouldn't hate Tianxiang, in his heart, Tianxiang might be more important than his own life, right?
Chu Qing's carefully stitched body was finished again, and she breathed a sigh of relief.

She will never let the murderer go unpunished!
She picked up the Langhao pen and added another item on the autopsy report: she was three months pregnant.

Just halfway through writing, he suddenly looked at the Langhao pen in his hand.

Chu Qing's brows twitched suddenly, she finally realized what she always felt was weird in Xu Yun's room before.

Xu Yun wrote the confession letter.

But... there is no pen, ink, paper or inkstone in his room!
So, what did he write it in?
Unless... that letter was already in his hands!
He was forced to commit suicide!
Chu Qing was so excited that she slammed the autopsy box shut, but just as she stood up, suddenly, there was a dull "boom" in front of her.

Chu Qing's heart skipped a beat, and she ran towards the heavy wooden door of the ice cellar.

But when she got close, she yanked the buckle of the wooden door.

It was found that the wooden door that had left a gap when she came in was completely closed at this moment.

And apparently the lock fell from the outside.

Her pupils moved, unbelievable...

She slammed on the wooden door and called out, "Is anyone there?"

It was just the coldness in the ice cellar that answered her.

The wooden door is thick and thick, here is an ice cellar, closed everywhere, and it is located underground in the Ministry of Criminal Justice.

Unless there is a corpse coming, very few people will come in.

Chu Qing was shrouded in a chill: Impossible... It is impossible for the murderer to appear in the Ministry of Punishment.

How could a stranger appear suddenly without being noticed?

Besides, how could he know that he would come to the ice cellar?

This time, it was just a spur-of-the-moment idea.

Chu Qing started to shout again, but the answer was still dead silence.

And she also clearly felt that the surrounding area was getting colder and colder.

Chu Qing couldn't help rubbing her arms, the clothes on her body were soaked with a thin layer of ice, she was so cold that she couldn't help but sneezed.

She gritted her teeth and pressed her ear against the wooden door, but she couldn't hear anything at all.

Unless someone outside took the initiative to open the door.

Otherwise, even if she yelled out her throat, it would be impossible for anyone to hear her voice.

Chu Qing gritted her teeth, instead of waiting for others to save her, it is better to save herself.

The only thing she was thankful for was that she brought a suitcase in with her.

There are a few handy knives inside.

Chu Qing gritted her teeth, tore off a piece of cloth from the hem of her robe, and wrapped her hands around it.

Otherwise, it is very likely that she has not been frozen to death because of cutting her finger with the blade.

Instead, he died of excessive blood loss.

Chu Qing was a good protector, so she began to plan the wooden door in front of her with a knife.

It's a pity that she couldn't resist the colder and colder.

She felt her limbs becoming more and more stiff, and the small wounds on her hands looked a little scary, and a small hole was dug under the wooden door, but because the wooden door was really too thick, when Chu Qing pulled all the strength out of her body, she couldn't help it. But it was a third cut.

……

In the imperial palace, in the royal study.

Li Tianxiao was correcting the memorial when suddenly the Langhao brush slipped in his hand.

It turned out to be a fork.

A bright red mark was left on the memorial.

Li Tianxiao frowned, and the steward who was accompanying him hurriedly ouched, and took a clean handkerchief to help Li Tianxiao clean up the marks on his hands.

Li Tianxiao waved his hand, and put the Langhao brush in his hand into the brush washer.

After wiping his hands clean, the new Langhao pen handed over by the head of the imperial court was stained with Zhu Dan, and he continued to mark.

It's just that my heart has been in a trance, and I can't stand it at all.

In the end, he simply put down his pen and rubbed his eyebrows: "What time is it?"

The imperial steward: "It's already ten minutes for dinner. Does the emperor want to eat?"

Li Tianxiao looked out at the sky: I don't know what's going on with Chu Qing?

He thought for a while: "Let's arrange it."

After the manager went out, he raised his hand and summoned his personal guards: "Go to the Ministry of Punishments and see, Master Yu has gone back?"

The personal guard took the order and left quickly, but the personal guard still didn't come back after Li Tianxiao had eaten his dinner.

Just when Li Tianxiao couldn't sit still, the personal guard finally came back: "Your Majesty, I don't know where Master Yu went, and I can't find anyone anywhere."

"Huh? Where's the Ministry of Criminal Justice?" He remembered that he was going to the Ministry of Criminal Justice to continue investigating the corpse.

Qin Wei said: "Master Zhen from the Ministry of Punishment said that Master Yu was indeed here before, but he should have gone back later. The subordinate went to Beizhen Fusi and asked Zhong Baihu, saying that he did not see him..."

Li Tianxiao frowned even tighter: "He didn't tell Lord Zhen where he went?"

The personal guard shook his head and said: "Someone in the Ministry of Criminal Justice beat drums to appeal for grievances. Mr. Zhen is handling the case. His subordinates dare not reveal their identities rashly. They only say that they are from Zhong Baihu. Mr. Zhen said that the young master was going to have an autopsy earlier, so Mr. Zhen asked the yatou to take the case." The key was given to him, and the door of the autopsy room was locked later, it is estimated that Master Yu should have left, maybe he went to investigate the case."

Li Tianxiao waved his hand, but after sitting in the palace for a while, he couldn't calm down.

He frowned, thinking of Chu Qing's worry, the cunning murderer hiding in the dark, in case she finds something to investigate... If the murderer finds out...kill her...

Thinking of those two words, Li Tianxiao couldn't sit still anymore, his heart was beating thumpingly.

Worrying.

"Come on!" Li Tianxiao growled.

"emperor!"

"Follow me out of the palace." Since you can't sit still, go and look for it.
