Chapter 17
Next, Gu Xiaoya tested the eighth female corpse found under the gate of the imperial capital two days ago, and this time, she gained even more, and found an important clue in the female's stomach.

After that, she carefully inspected the evidence Tang Li stole from the Prison Officer. In fact, there was nothing special about it. The most important thing was eight handkerchiefs with exactly the same cut, pattern, and color, but the embroidery stitches were slightly different.

Most of the women in the Great Qin Dynasty mainly used their unique Qin embroidery. Although the eight murdered women all learned Qin embroidery, each of them has some small habits or small details that are different from others in embroidery.

And these handkerchiefs have also been verified by the family members of the deceased or the maids and mother-in-law who were familiar with them. The words "Nianhua Yixiao" on the handkerchiefs were indeed embroidered by the deceased.

"An inhumane person who is proficient in embroidery, drinks exquisite food, and can only eat honeydew fruit unique to hot regions at this time, who do you think it could be?" Gu Xiaoya took off her blood-stained gown after the autopsy. Walking to the bonfire in the courtyard that had not been extinguished, he looked at Tang Li and asked easily.

"Honey Wangguo?" Tang Lihe glanced at each other in confusion. Why did Gu Xiaoya suddenly mention Gongguo?

"That's right, the eighth female corpse still has the core of the honeydew fruit in the stomach." Gu Xiaoya replied.

"Master, do you mean that Nianhuayixiao is inhumane and proficient in embroidery, and can also get in touch with foreign tribute fruit Miwangguo? Why do you think so?" Tang Li asked anxiously.

"There is no male bodily fluid in these female corpses, and they have been injured by something similar to a man's lower body. It can be seen that the person who raped the corpse after death is most likely to be inhumane. Everyone knows the case of killing people with a smile. When the women who left were told that they had fallen into the hands of Nianhua Yixiao, how could they embroider obediently and not panic. Of course, the most important thing is the food in the stomachs of these women, especially the eighth corpse." Although it can't be done The most precise autopsy conclusions can be drawn, but with years of experience in practicing medicine and part-time forensic medicine, Gu Xiaoya can't be wrong.

"Could it be that Nianhua Yixiao is someone from the palace?" Based on Gu Xiaoya's autopsy and the conclusions of examining the evidence, Yi also came to his own judgment.

"Perhaps he could be a eunuch?" Tang Li further deduced.

"Now that we have specific clues, it's up to you to investigate and verify the rest!" She has already done what she has to do, and she can't help with the rest if she wants to, after all, she can't fly over the wall.

To Tang Li, having a clue was the best news he had heard in the past three days, so he didn't say too many extra words. He solemnly bowed to Gu Xiaoya and saluted, then turned and left with the evidence.

Yi Yi also wanted to leave, but Gu Xiaoya stopped him and asked him to bring all the eight corpses in the abandoned village back to the prison department, and put seven of them into the prison department's ice cellar, waiting for Tang Li. Rescue my sister, and then "return" the corpses to the grave.

After hesitating for a moment, Yi went in bravely, but after he entered, he found that everything was different from what he had imagined. The female corpses had returned to their clean and tidy appearance, and they were even wearing their original clothes.

If it weren't for the stench and bloody smell in the room, it would be easy to think that Gu Xiaoya's autopsy appearance was imagined out of thin air.

Another two days and one night later, in Gu Xiaoya's study in the backyard of the General's Mansion, Tang Lihe easily told Gu Xiaoya everything he had investigated in the past two days.

Actually, Gu Xiaoya didn't want to hear it at all.She no longer cared so much about the truth of the case, and she believed that with those clues, Tang Li and the others should be able to find Nianhua Yixiao's whereabouts soon. As for whether they can catch him and rescue Tang Juan, that's another matter.

"Master, according to the clues you gave, I went to the palace to check secretly. If there is one person who matches what you said, that is Eunuch An, the adopted son of Pang De, the head of the eunuch. This year, there are very few honey hope fruits from foreign countries. One, the emperor ate two, two for the empress dowager and two for the empress, and the last one for Pound, and Eunuch An, as Pound's adoptive son, is likely to get the fruit of hope. However, I was not in the palace. Find my sister!" There are also many masters in the inner courtyard of the palace. Although Tang Li has high lightness kung fu and good internal energy, he dare not make too much noise, fearing that if Tang Juan fails to find her, it will harm her instead.

"Grandpa An's original name was Anqing. He followed his mother into the palace as an eunuch at the age of eight. His mother was an embroiderer specially recruited by the Imperial Embroidery Workshop. I heard that her embroidery skills are superb, and the embroidery she embroiders is even more exquisite. However, three years after entering the palace, he suddenly fell ill and died. Anqing became Pang De's adoptive son at the age of 16, and later had an affair with Xianglan, a maid of Jinchen Palace. Four months ago, Xianglan was involved in the case of the Zuo family. Being killed by a stick, that is, from that time on, the first woman who was killed by Nianhua Yixiao began to appear in the imperial capital." It is easy to suspect that if An Qing was really Nianhua Yixiao, then Xianglan's death might be because he suddenly became a murderous demon s reason.

"Since you all know who the murderer might be, why don't you go and catch him?" The two people who are so anxious to catch the prisoner don't need to waste their time on her, she can't catch up with Yanhua Xiaoxiao.

"Master, it's already the fifth day. Nianhua Yixiao will probably kill my sister tomorrow or the day after tomorrow. To be honest, neither Master Rong Er nor I can compare to Nianhua Yixiao. If he escapes , we may never be able to catch him again. Master, please help me find a way!" Tang Li said earnestly.

Rescuing the dying and healing the wounded, post-mortem verification is what she can do, but she doesn't like to participate in such things as catching murderers.

"An Qing is an eunuch who lives in the inner courtyard of the palace, how can I help you catch him?" She doesn't know martial arts, so I believe Tang Li and Yi Yi can detect it.

"Master, the empress is going to invite the noble ladies of the imperial capital to a spring banquet in the palace tomorrow. Young Master Rong Er and I will pester An Qing. You just need to take this opportunity to find out the whereabouts of my sister." I don't want Gu Xiaoya to be in danger.

"Miss Gu, this is a post for the Queen's Spring Banquet, and it is the young lady of the Rong family from the General's Mansion!" Yi Yi took out a red and luxurious post from his sleeve, and it looked like a palace thing.

In this era of supremacy of imperial power, if there was no such post, Gu Xiaoya might have rejected it again, but since the mother of a country asked her to go, she had to go, otherwise she would be offended.

In the evening, after Gu Xiaoya finished washing, Xuemei, who hesitated for a long time, finally said, "Miss, I'm afraid I won't be able to accompany you into the palace tomorrow."
