White Bone Monkey King

Jin An and the old Taoist priests came forward to inspect the body.

Last confirmation.

The two men had indeed died violently.

The heartbeat and neck pulse were gone.

"Could it be that...the two of them were seriously injured by Mr. Jin'an before, and their spleens were severely ruptured, so we can't see..."

"So he died suddenly without treatment?"

Li Yanchu looked at the two corpses at his feet, frowned and guessed.

But Jin An disagreed with Li Yanchu's statement.

"Don't you think that the timing of these two deaths is a bit strange?"

"You were about to confess, but you died suddenly?"

Jin An pondered: "Perhaps during their autopsies, unexpected findings may be found on them."

However, Jin An and the old Taoist priest conducted a rough autopsy on the two bodies and found nothing unusual.

If not found on the body surface.

Is that inside the body?

When it comes to such bloody things as anatomy, it requires an operator with more professional knowledge.

In the end, Li Yanchu could only be asked to take the body back first.

Before leaving, Jin An asked Li Yanchu to remember to inform him as soon as the autopsy results were available or if there was any progress in the case.

After Li Yanchu left with the people and the body, the old Taoist priest stood in the yard and sighed.

"Little brother, based on my experience in running around in the world for so many years, the death of those two people is not simple. I'm afraid there is someone behind the scenes."

The old Taoist priest spoke solemnly.

Jin An naturally understood the reason.

Now the only thing we can do is to block it with soldiers, and the water will cover us with the earth.

He could only place his hope on the efficiency of the government and hoped that the government could find out the specific identities of the two people as soon as possible.

Only then can he plan for the future.

But obviously, Jin An still underestimated the nervousness of the local government in Chang County and the importance they attached to this matter because of the approaching temple fair.

The second half of the night is not over yet, and the sky is still dark.

Li Yanchu came to the door again with several fellow government officials, but Li Yanchu came with injuries.

"Brother Li, what are you..." Jin An was startled.

Li Yanchu broke the bad news: "Master Jin An, the body is missing..."

"To be more precise, the body should have been robbed."

Li Yanchu had a bitter smile on his face. The injuries on his body were caused by the conflict with the opponent.

When Li Yanchu talked about this corpse robbery, he still had lingering fears.

If they hadn't had military crossbows, the other party would have just robbed the corpses and not wanted to fight. It's unclear whether those who escorted the corpses would have survived.

Li Yanchu clasped his fists and continued: "Mr. Jin An, the body has been taken away. Feng Baotou begged Mr. Jin An if he could go to the Yamen. He said it was a long-term plan and he hoped to find some useful clues from Mr. Jin An."

"Because the temple fair is approaching, Capt. Zhao is stationed at the Wenwu Temple, and Capt. Feng needs to be stationed at the Yamen, responsible for arranging the security of Chang County and protecting the officials in the Yamen. Capt. Feng is really inseparable and cannot go to the door to invite Mr. Jin An in person. Feng Capt. The arrester asked me to apologize on my behalf, and I also hope that Mr. Jin'an will pay tribute."

Jin An is not a small-minded person.

He didn't care about these details. What he cared about was the meaning behind this corpse robbery...

So Jin An nodded and agreed to go to the Yamen with Li Yanchu to meet Feng Baotou.

The old Taoist priest couldn't sleep at this time. He was shameless and clamored to join in the fun, saying that he might be able to offer some advice.

Jin An thought it made sense, so he also brought the old Taoist priest with him.

Of course, it is also to avoid leaving the old Taoist priest alone and being taken advantage of by the other party.

The other party even dared to rob the corpses escorted by the government.

It shows that in order not to reveal their identity and to hide the conspiracy, these people have begun to jump over the wall and do anything they can.

When the group of people arrived at the Yamen, because Feng Baotou had already greeted them in advance, they had an unimpeded journey deep into the Yamen.

The group of people actually came directly to Magistrate Zhang's study.

At this time, the lights in Magistrate Zhang's study were brightly lit and the candles were burning.

"Why did Capt. Feng arrange to meet him in Magistrate Zhang's study?"

Jin An's eyes were thoughtful.

When he walked into the study and saw that Capt. Feng and Magistrate Zhang were both in the study, and they seemed to be discussing something with serious expressions on their faces, Jin An had no surprised expression on his face.

This is Magistrate Zhang’s study.

It is natural for Magistrate Zhang to appear here.

It seems that the matter to be discussed tonight is very important, right?

Even Magistrate Zhang, the largest local official in Chang County, stayed up all night, specially waiting for him and the old Taoist priest... Jin An's eyes were full of thought.

Because there was a temple fair after dawn and time was tight, we skipped a lot of red tape etiquette and got straight to the point.

After County Magistrate Zhang retired from the other government officials and only he, Feng Baotou, Jin An, and the old Taoist priest were left in the study, he began to ask Feng Baotou, who was still injured and bandaged, to introduce the situation.

This is not the first time that Jin An and Magistrate Zhang have met, but for some reason, sitting together with Magistrate Zhang this time makes him more nervous than the first time?

Is it because of Miss Zhang Lingyun?

Or is it because of Shopkeeper Zhang’s relationship?

After all, this Magistrate Zhang seems to be a cautious and brave person. Now that he knows the relationship between Zhang Lingyun, Shopkeeper Zhang and Magistrate Zhang, will he kill someone and silence them?

For example, is this a Hongmen Banquet?

The more Jin An thought about it, the more he thought it was possible.

Thinking of Zhang Lingyun, Jin An realized at this moment that he was obsessed with martial arts practice and had not seen Miss Zhang Lingyun for a long time...

Speaking of Zhang Lingyun, huh?

When Jin An sat down next to Magistrate Zhang, he was secretly surprised.

Magistrate Zhang smells good.

This aroma is so familiar...

It smells a bit like the powdery scent of Red Moon Rouge?

The reason why Jin An is so sensitive to the scent of Red Moon Rouge is because he once bought a box of the most expensive rouge for Zhang Lingyun——

Red Moon Rouge!

This is the rouge exclusively used by the nobles of the northern capital!

"It seems that County Magistrate Zhang is also a maniac who dotes on his wife."

"I am willing to give the county magistrate's wife Red Moon Rouge."

"And the reason why County Magistrate Zhang still has the scent of red moon rouge on his body is because he has just gotten out of bed with the county magistrate's wife..."

Jin An, who sat down at the desk, secretly speculated in his heart.

When several people sat down, Magistrate Zhang nodded to Feng Baotou, and then Feng Baotou began to solemnly introduce the details.

"It is not difficult to investigate the identities of Wang De and Sun Yuanliang. Although someone robbed the bodies along the way...but the Yamen servants in the Yamen often deal with gangsters. According to the oral characteristics of the brothers who came back, we quickly investigated Understand the specific identities of those two people."

As soon as Feng Baotou opened his mouth, Jin An and the old Taoist priest were surprised.

Feng Captou apologized to Jin An: "Because there was a corpse robbery incident, in order to protect the safety of Li Yanchu and others, this matter was investigated in secret."

"I hope Mr. Jin'an won't blame Li Yanchu, because even Li Yanchu doesn't know about this yet."

"In order to keep it confidential to the greatest extent possible and prevent the other party from jumping over the wall again, this matter is currently only known to me, Magistrate Zhang, and a few trustworthy people."

"Feng Mou and County Magistrate Zhang have discussed that the temple fair will be held after dawn, which will inevitably lead to a long night and many dreams. In order to find out what these people are plotting as soon as possible, they plan to mobilize troops and horses overnight to attack directly at the door, so as not to let these people harbor in Chang The rioters in the county were left with a chance to react.”

"But because Feng was injured and had not recovered, and Capt. Zhao had to keep an eye on the safety of the Wenwu Temple at all times, the Yamen really couldn't deploy other experts... Therefore, Feng recommended Jin'an to County Magistrate Zhang Young Master, Feng shamelessly implores Young Master Jin An to lend a helping hand to the Yamen and work with the Yamen brothers to encircle and attack the Qingshui Gang's chief helmsman."

"If Mr. Jin An is the master of suppressing the formation and Feng is confident, this matter will definitely be accomplished!"

At this time, Magistrate Zhang, the parent official of Chang County, no longer remained silent, stood up and bowed: "I hope Mr. Jin'an can take action again to save the people of Chang County from dire straits."

"To be honest, after discussions with Capt. Feng, as well as various clues, I feel that what these thieves are plotting this time may be related to the case of Li Dashan's private possession of gunpowder...Tomorrow will be the busiest event of the year. It’s a temple fair, maybe this is the target of those thieves.”

Magistrate Zhang's words were astonishing.
