Concubine

Chapter 254 Manhunt
Let Yun Leng be interrogated first to clarify this issue. If necessary, another autopsy and even skull restoration will be carried out.

Yang Qiuchi ordered Yun Leng to be brought to the lobby.

Yun Leng has definitely been wronged, and he will be acquitted after the ruling of his superiors.Therefore, Yang Qiuchi has ordered that all the shackles of Yun Leng be removed, and change the cell to be with his father.Living conditions have also been particularly improved.

Yun Leng went to the lobby, knelt down and kowtowed to Yang Qiuchi gratefully.

Yang Qiuchi asked: "Yun Leng, did you know if your wife and her younger brother disappeared after entering the city that day, did you find them later?"

Speaking of this question, Yun Leng suddenly felt sad, lowered his head and said in a low voice: "I heard from the folks who visited the prison that they haven't been found. My father and I are still talking today. When we go out, we will send people around to look for it." try to find."

Yang Qiuchi's heart sank, and he carefully asked about the physical characteristics of his wife and younger brother, especially when Yun Leng said that when he married his wife, he specially inlaid a gold tooth on his wife's upper left front tooth; When I was young, I fell off a horse, and the little finger of my left hand was trampled off by a horse. These two points are completely consistent with the male and female corpses found in the autopsy. Yang Qiuchi has already confirmed that the two corpses belonged to Yun Leng's wife and his wife who disappeared at that time. younger brother.

These two characteristics can already determine the identity of the bones, and there is no need for skull restoration, because if this technology is used in modern society, generally not many people will be surprised, but in ancient times, it was possible to demobilize a skeleton into a human body with seven or eight bones. People who are divided into images, this must be very shocking, and Yang Qiuchi does not want to use this method unless it is a last resort.

In addition, if Wang Dianshi and his concubine Aunt Zhao are captured, it will further confirm whether the identities of the two corpses are Yun Leng's wife and her brother.To catch them, the only way is to catch them at sea.

Yang Qiuchi turned his head and ordered Chang Fu, his follower, to find a painter and draw a portrait of Aunt Zhao based on the description of the person who knew Zhao in the yamen. He wanted to use this portrait to let Yun Leng identify him. If he was sure it was the woman who attacked him, Then you can carry out sea arrests and arrest Wang Dianshi and Aunt Zhao.

After hearing this, Chang Fu thought for a while, and said, "Master, there is no need for a painter to paint. Last time, there was a fire in Dianshi's inner office, and some items were rescued. The villain remembers that there seem to be some portraits. I don't know if there is Aunt Zhao."

"Oh? Hurry up and check it out, and bring it as soon as possible!" After a pause, he added: "Find a few more portraits of different women to confuse them."

Yang Qiuchi was very excited. It would be even better if there were ready-made ones. After all, the portraits drawn directly from real people are much more realistic.It seems that Wang Dianshi and Aunt Zhao arranged such an elaborate situation for the golden cicada to escape its shell, but they did not expect the portrait to be rescued from the flames.

Chang Fu found Aunt Zhao's portrait, and took several other portraits of other women to the lobby. Yang Qiuchi handed it to Yun Leng for identification.Yun Leng looked at it carefully.Pointing to one of them, he shouted, "That's the woman! That's right, she was the one who tricked me into the alley behind the Yamen and beat me unconscious that day!"

Yang Qiuchi looked at his follower Chang Fu, who nodded, "Master, this portrait is the portrait of Wang Dianshi's concubine Aunt Zhao."

"Okay!" Yang Qiuchi was overjoyed, and ordered Master Jin to arrange other arrangements to re-open the coffin for autopsy, make a new corpse, and let Yun Leng and Yun Tianqing identify the bones.

The appearance of those two corpses had been burnt, and they were already highly corrupted, most of them were bones. However, the old broken joint of the left little finger of the male corpse and the gold tooth inlaid on the upper left front tooth of the female corpse still made Yun Leng and Yun Tianqing affirmed. , the two corpses were Yun Leng's beautiful lady and her younger brother who disappeared that day.Can't help crying loudly.

Yang Qiuchi comforted them for a while, and started to prepare the case report.

This case was reported to the emperor by the Ministry of Criminal Justice and Dali Temple for approval, so it must be reported to the emperor layer by layer before it can be finally revoked. He ordered Master Jin to immediately extract the relevant witness testimony, and then draft an official document from the government, attaching relevant evidence, requesting the revocation of Yun Leng's death sentence Yun Tianqing was sentenced and given a lighter punishment. At the same time, Aunt Zhao and Wang Dianshi were ordered to be arrested at sea across the country.Use four hundred miles to report urgently.

The material was reported to the prefecture, and through the feedback, Yang Qiuchi learned that before Wang Dianshi disappeared, the imperial envoy stationed in Huguang in charge of inspecting local officials and inspecting money and food was investigating Wang Dianshi's bribery and fraudulent practices in collecting taxes. Things, in the Ming Dynasty, this was a capital offense.It was only then that Yang Qiuchi realized that Wang Dianshi's butt must have been dirty, and he killed Yun Leng's wife and brother-in-law, so he went out of his way to get the golden cicada out of its shell and absconded.

If this case is to be finally closed, Wang Dianshi and Aunt Zhao must be caught.

Where will they go?Yang Qiuchi didn't want to wait for the result of the sea arrest, he wanted to find a way as much as possible, so he thought carefully.

One possibility is to run back to live in their hometown.The possibility of this is very small. Wang Dianshi created a fake situation that he and his aunt were killed. The news will reach his hometown sooner or later, so they can't openly show up in front of people.In addition, I told Ban Changfu that Wang Dianshi's hometown is far away, and the bones were transported back to his hometown after the beginning of spring. The family members who came to transport the bones probably didn't know that Wang Dianshi was not dead, and Wang Dianshi couldn't be in his hometown. There is a leak.

The second possibility is to escape to other towns and live incognito.However, this possibility is weakened for two reasons:

First, the ancient household registration system was very strict, and the management of migrant population was very strict, and ordinary people could not migrate at will.Therefore, it is not easy for Wang Dianshi to remain anonymous;

Second, the Procuratorate is investigating his corruption, perversion of the law, and malpractice for personal gain, and he will not let him go easily. He should consider that once the golden cicada fails to escape, he will be arrested by the sea. If he settles in another town and is an immigrant, Will catch him right away.

Therefore, if he is smart, he should not appear in other towns, at least he should not appear in other towns until the dust settles and his plan to escape the shell finally succeeds.

After ruling out these two relatively small possibilities, there is the last one, which is the most likely one: hiding in an inaccessible place or hiding in a town without showing your face, or else using human skin Makeovers like masks to hide in seclusion.

If you live in a town, under the strict household registration management system, this kind of concealment is easy to leak, because it is not hidden for a day or two. Of course, there are also precedents for successful concealment, such as the theft of the bank of the Yunnan Provincial Criminal Police Department. Hua Gang (played by Wu Yangjun), the Yudang of China Jianwen, has been very successful in hiding.

If Wang Dianshi and Aunt Zhao changed their disguises and hid in other towns, they could only rely on the national sea arrest and careful search to find them.The national sea arrest must be made by the Ministry of Punishment.

Of course, if Yang Qiuchi wants to use the power of Jin Yiwei's command envoy to link Wang Dianshi and Jianwen, he can also use this as an excuse to immediately issue a national sea arrest order.However, Yang Qiuchi didn't intend to do this. It would be a bit of a fuss. After all, Jin Yiwei was not used to investigate such ordinary criminal cases. To use modern vocabulary, it is called a waste of judicial resources.Let's take it slowly according to the rules, anyway, there is no rush, he has learned to deal with problems cautiously now.

However, Yang Qiuchi didn't want to wait for the news slowly. He liked to take the initiative and look for possibilities.

According to the analysis just now, apart from the situation of hiding in other towns with anonymity, there is another possibility, that is, hiding in remote mountains, old forests and wild places with few people.

In terms of hiding in uninhabited places, during the Ming Dynasty, there was probably no more suitable place to hide in the wilderness of the country than the hundreds of miles of mountains near Huguang Town and Yuanzhou.There are high mountains and deep valleys, sparsely populated, and virgin forests everywhere.Moreover, Wang Dianshi often went to the countryside to collect grain, and he was very familiar with the surrounding environment in this area, and he knew which places were suitable for hiding.Therefore, he is probably hiding in the deep mountains and old forests nearby.

Isn't there a saying that the most dangerous place is the safest?Wang Dianshibu's game is so delicate and bold, which shows that he is very smart and even a bit conceited. He may choose to hide around this dangerous move. He killed Yun Leng's wife and brother-in-law, but instead he hid here. Firstly, there are primeval forests and caves suitable for hiding everywhere, and secondly, no one would have thought that he would hide here, so the search for this area has been relaxed instead.Wait until the weather is calm and everything has settled, then go down the mountain and escape far away, find a town to change its appearance and settle down.

Having figured out this joint, Yang Qiuchi decided to search the mountains hundreds of miles away by himself while waiting for the news that the Ministry of Punishment approved the national sea arrest.Both hands must be grasped, and both hands must be hard.

There are ready-made people who can use it to carry out this search work-Yun Tianqing, the master of the Miao Village.

Judging from the performance of thousands of Miao people in the morning, although Yun Tianqing is short in stature, he has a high prestige in the Miao villages in the four miles and eight townships. The Miao people have lived in these mountains for generations and are very familiar with the mountain conditions. , as long as he ordered to search the mountain, if Wang Dianshi was hiding nearby, the possibility of finding him would be very high.

Yang Qiuchi ordered Yun Tianqing to be brought to the conservatory specially for receiving distinguished guests. Since Yun Leng's case was a wrong one, there was a reason why Yun Tianqing led the Miao people to attack the dignitaries in the Yamen. The imperial court will definitely deal with him leniently, so Yang Qiuchi also treats him with courtesy.
