Vol 2 Chapter 15: Huang Xiaorou

Chapter 246: Huang Xiaorou
"Female corpse?"
The waited at the gate of the palace anxiously, there must be something urgent. The only intersection between Xu Qi'an and him is the Fufei case. Then the female corpse must be related to the Fufei case.
Xu Qi'an squinted and moved in his heart: "Is it the missing palace lady in the Fufei case?"
The little was taken aback for a moment, and was sincerely convinced: "The grown-ups are really clever calculations, and the slaves admire them."
This sentence is not only a compliment but also from the heart. After two consecutive days of supervision, the little father-in-law discovered that Xu Qi'an was a famous arrester who looked exaggerated but was too intelligent.
This is not a magical calculation, it is a very simple reasoning... Xu Qi'an nodded and said: "Take me to see the corpse."
The hurriedly led the way.
"Which well was the body found?"
"Crab Pavilion's backyard."
"Crab Pavilion?"
Xu Qi'an said something bad name.
"The crab pavilion is where the palace ladies live." The replied.
The palace ladies are also divided into three or six or nine grades. The high-status palace ladies are called female officials, and even those with rank and titles, such as Jieyu, Beauty, Talent, Imperial Girl, Chosen Girl and so on.
This kind of palace lady hopes to be lucky by the emperor, and it is an instant success. Of course, during the reign of Emperor Yuan Jing, none of them should think of making a splash.
The next best thing is the maid waiting next to her concubine.
The lowest class is the handyman who lives in the big dormitory.
Crab Pavilion is a dormitory for palace ladies.
As he walked, he soon came to the morgue in the palace, in a secluded courtyard to the south, where the corpses that were executed, died of illness, and accidentally died in the palace were parked.
On the rudimentary bed, a slightly bloated corpse was lying on it.
"Go and get the knife. I want to dissect the corpse." Xu Qi'an ordered.
He was a little bit happy. When he was a errand in the Yamen in his previous life, he was often sent to observe the forensic anatomy and act as an assistant. Accumulated a lot of professional knowledge and experience.
From the initial panic and vomiting to the slow acceptance, and then the sluggish attack, Xu Qi'an vaguely found that he liked anatomy.
After coming to this world, I encountered many cases, but not many opportunities for anatomy.
"Fu Concubine is the old emperor's woman, I can't touch it, this little palace lady can always break my stomach...If it can be fresher."
While thinking, he untied the court lady's clothes.
"Dog minion, dog minion, why don't you send someone to notify me when you enter the palace..."
Princess Lin'an's cheerful voice came from outside, and then, a red shadow flew and stopped at the door.
"what are you doing?"
Lin'an watched Xu Qi'an holding the female corpse's belly in his hand, and the bright smile on his face solidified suddenly.
Behind him, Huai Qing in a fluttering white skirt followed the threshold of entry, glanced at Xu Qi'an, and then his gaze fell on his belly.
It's a bit embarrassing... Xu Qi'an didn't change his face: "Examine the corpse and plan to dissect it."
"Don't touch such disgusting things."
After mounting and stomping, she glanced at the naked upper body of the female corpse, and then immediately retracted her eyes.
In this regard, Princess Huaiqing took the same view and gave suggestions: "Why not let Wu Zuo do it?"
Because I like to do this.... Xu Qi'an shook his head solemnly and explained seriously: "Your Majesty, you know that you must be hands-on in your humble ministry, be meticulous, and if you can do it yourself, you won’t be able to fake it. In the eyes of others, this It is a good quality of diligence, but in the eyes of a humble position, it is really not a common thing to mention."
Mounting admires Xu Qi'an's work attitude very much. Huai Qing was expressionless, as if he did not believe his nonsense.
"Your Highnesses will go back to drink tea first, wait a while, don't stay here." Xu Qi'an wanted to drive people.
Huaiqing didn't leave after hearing this, but Lianbu walked up to the female corpse instead.
"The body was salvaged last night. After recognizing it was Huang Xiaorou, he was taken away by Father Chang." Huaiqing said:
"I want to stay and have a look, maybe there will be clues in the body."
Huaiqing seems to be very interested in brainstorming, playing chess, revising history, and now solving crimes... Xu Qi'an turned his head and silently looked at the bright and beautiful eyes of the princess.
Huaiqing condensed his eyes slightly, and stared at him, his voice had the texture of ice crashing, which was extremely pleasing to the ear: "Huh?"
A simple "um" implies: brother, do you have an opinion?
Xu Qi'an retracted his gaze, no longer looking at the flawless face of the eldest princess, turned his head and said, "Your Royal Highness."
Biaobi glanced at Huaiqing, and said hesitatingly, "I will stay here too."
"Ok!"
Xu Qi'an stripped the female body happily.
The mounting face turned red, then white, hiding her face and leaving.
"Your Highness, won't you stay here to see it?" Xu Qi'an called.
Miao Miao covered her face, and said, "Go, go..."
Huaiqing glanced at the female corpse. Although it was well hidden, Xu Qi'an could still see the embarrassment in those cold and clear eyes.
This kind of embarrassment is like when Xu Qi'an was watching TV with his parents before, and it happened to be broadcasted to the hero and heroine in bed.
With a perfect appearance and top configuration, the kernel is very powerful, that is, the number of kilometers is almost zero... Xu Qi'an made an evaluation in his heart.
If you compare Huaiqing to a top sports car, just out of the factory.
Then the mounting is a model car, the appearance is not plausible, the core...it's hard to say.
But for men, it's probably that women who are coquettish, charming, and not too smart are more popular.
"what is this?"
Huaiqing found a piece of pale yellow silk from the underclothes of the court lady Huang Xiaorou, embroidered with a red lotus flower, and a line of small characters:
The 31st year of Yuanjing Spring.
"Before she died, she kept it personally, which shows that it is extremely important to her."
Huaiqing looked at Xu Qi'an and seemed to be seeking confirmation, and said, "What do you think of Master Xu?"
Xu Qi'an let out an "um".
The corners of Huaiqing's mouth were slightly raised.
"His Royal Highness is so smart, why not come and see this female corpse, what can you see?"
Huai Qing couldn't help but glance at him, Xu Qi'an was about to test her posture, could not help but constrict the arc of the corner of his mouth, and an emotion of reluctance surged.
"According to the degree of whiteness and swelling of the corpse, she did not plunge into the well after the incident." Huaiqing made a judgment.
"Within two days." Xu Qi'an gave a more accurate reply.
"There is no obvious trauma on her body, so she should have died by drowning. Maybe she was knocked out." After speaking, the beautiful and refined princess looked at Xu Qi'an subconsciously.
Seeing him expressionless and not replying, Her Royal Highness felt a little unhappy. When she lowered her head, she gently curled her mouth.
"Anything else?" Xu Qi'an asked.
Huai Qing thought for a while and shook his head slightly.
"You are missing the most important step. Usually when examining female corpses, even if there are obvious signs of death, never forget to check..."
Xu Qi'an raised his eyebrows towards Huaiqing, showing a hehe smile.
Huai Qing was stunned for a moment, and then, seeing Xu Qi'an's gaze falling on the taboo, as smart as her, he immediately understood.
Huh.....
The fair face immediately turned red, and the eldest princess Liu's eyebrows were erect, and she gritted her teeth: "Xu Ningyan, you dare to molest the palace!"
Xu Qi'an admitted his mistake with a sincere attitude: "The humble duty has no intention of offending, the princess forgive the sin."
Huai Qing turned to his side and said that he would not accept his apology, and was very angry.
To molest the proud and cold princess is much more fulfilling than to molest the Lin'an....... Huaiqing's amorous feelings when he was angry... Xu Qi'an coughed and said:
"It's true that she was drowning, but she didn't drown in a well. She was held in the water to death."
"Why can you see it?" Huai Qing asked in disbelief and turned his head.
Well, as long as she discusses academic issues, she will not be angry for the time being.... Female academic bully also has the weakness of female academic bully... Xu Qi'an silently noted it down, calmly on the surface, and explained:
"Look at her face is purple-red, and it is pale and swollen in a normal drowning person. Her face will become congested only if she is pressed in the water and her posture is head down, and the blood flows back to her head when she dies."
Huaiqing frowned, thinking.
"One more thing," Xu Qi'an grabbed the female corpse's wrist, "Look at her hand, clenched into a fist, which is in line with the characteristics of drowning. But if you look closely, there is no sand or moss in her nails."
Huaiqing looked at it intently, and the nails were really clean.
"This shows that she did drown, but not in the well?" she asked.
"His Royal Highness is so smart. Compared with you, His Royal Highness Lin'an is just a younger sister." Xu Qi'an arched his hands and expressed admiration.
Although he knew he was complimenting himself, Huai Qing still felt comfortable.
People love to listen to good things, and saints are no exception. What's more, Princess Huaiqing is always proud. On the surface, she will dismiss flattery, but she will be secretly refreshed.
Huai Qing gave a reserved "um".
"So, she was silenced." Her Royal Highness Princess added later.
Xu Qi'an nodded, and at the same time heard the faint footsteps, he looked up at the door, and saw the from a distance holding the knife for dissecting the corpse.
The rush of footsteps rushed to the threshold. The eunuch's first reaction when seeing the female corpse was a sharp cry: Ah~
"My little father-in-law hasn't seen a woman, come here, this officer will give you a physiology lesson." Xu Qi'an teased like an old bastard.
The little ignored him, a little embarrassed, lowered his head, and placed the knife on the long table.
There are six knives of different sizes and thicknesses, wrapped in thick linen.
Xu Qi'an wanted to lick his lips to express his inner expectation. He also felt that this posture was too horrible to show up in front of Huaiqing, so he had to bear it.
Really, when I am doing some fun hobbies, I don't like people watching... He chose a single-edged sharp knife the size of a dagger, and the tip of the knife touched the female corpse's throat and cut open the throat.
A stream of slightly muddy water came out.
"vomit......."
The tender red flesh was exposed, and the little covered his mouth and couldn't help but retching.
Xu Qi'an then changed a big knife, opened his chest, and opened his lungs...
"Oh..." the escaped.
Can't hold it anymore? Sure enough, giving a physiology class to the is nothing but pure talk.
Huaiqing's jade-like face showed a vivid expression-horror and disgust. Eyelashes trembled and glanced away.
"There was also water in the lungs. The cause of death can be confirmed. It was drowning." Xu Qi'an put down the knife.
Huai Qing nodded and said, "Is there anything else to check?"
"No, let's leave, Your Highness." Xu Qi'an said, suddenly "Huh".
Huaiqing, who had turned his head and was about to leave, looked back, and suddenly Liu eyebrows were erected: "What are you doing?"
Xu Qi'an was playing with the ru room on the left of the female corpse, at least in Huaiqing's opinion.
"She was injured." Xu Qi'an frowned, and when he spoke, he turned the room up with force so that Huaiqing could see the situation under the breast.
Huai Qing was stunned.
The maid named Huang Xiaorou had a deep scar under her left breast, which was facing the heart.
She suddenly knew that she was wrong to blame Xu Qi'an, and she also understood his doubts:
How could a palace lady suffer such a dangerous injury? The strange thing is that he still survived?
Xu Qi'an spread out the burlap again, holding the largest knife, and cutting open the female corpse's chest along the scar.
Huaiqing looked like he wanted to see but was afraid of being hot.
Xu Qi'an took off the heart, squinted for a moment, and said thoughtfully: "From the scar, the wound is deep, and the weapon should be scissors or other sharp objects. She should have died of a lot of blood loss after touching the heart."
Huaiqing nodded, looked out the door, and analyzed: "The medicine that can heal this kind of wound can only be used by the queen mother and the concubine of the imperial concubine.
"If the rest of the people need a pill to save their lives, they have to get permission from the mother, or they have been rewarded by the emperor, and they don't need to use them from the warehouse."
Of the "other people" she said, the princes and princes were naturally not included.
The two left the morgue. There was a well in the yard. Xu Qi'an poured a bucket of water and washed his hands carefully.
Then, he scrubbed the piece of yellow silk found on the female body a few times and spread it out to dry by the well.
"You tell one of the errands who are in charge of the morgue. The corpse in it is still useful to the officer. Send it to the ice cellar." Xu Qi'an sent the away.
"Xu Ningyan, help the palace with a bucket of water." Princess Huaiqing stood alive.
According to her name, Xu Qi'an judged that she was in a good mood at the moment, and when she was polite and unfamiliar, she called Master Xu. When he was angry, he called Xu Ningyan.
At this moment, Huaiqing's tone is definitely not angry, so this Xu Ningyan sounds a bit like calling a friend.
Xu Qi'an brought her a bucket of water, Huaiqing squatted down, raised her long sleeves, and dipped her white hands in the water, with slender and well-proportioned fingers.
The little hands are so beautiful... he said heartily.
After Huaiqing soaked his hands, he took out the Jinpa to wipe off the water stains, and said, "My palace will take you to the Imperial Pharmacy."
Xu Qi'an was about to nod his head. At this moment, a thought suddenly came to him, why would he throw his body into the crab pavilion?
Among the imperial palaces, there are less to say, but there are more hidden ones, such as in the cold palace, such as the well in the morgue.
"Let's go to the crab pavilion first."
Lin'an in the distance saw the two come out, greeted them with brisk steps, and said, "What's there to find?"
"It did have some gains." Xu Qi'an told her about the findings of the autopsy. Lin'an nodded her head while listening, her small face was very focused, but after Xu Qi'an finished speaking, her attention immediately shifted, obviously the left ear went in and out of the right ear.
Lin'an pointed to the light yellow silk hanging beside the well, and said in surprise: "Dog minion, does the lotus on this look like you..."
Before he finished his words, Xu Qi'an suddenly screamed, clutching his head and rolling all over the floor.
Biaobi and Huaiqing were taken aback, and said eagerly, "What's the matter with you?"
"Head, my head hurts..." Xu Qi'an hugged his head in pain, letting his mink cap fall, revealing his bald head, showing that he really had a splitting headache.
"You wait, the palace will go to the imperial doctor immediately." Hiao Biao stomped anxiously. Turning around, twisting the water snake's waist and ran away.
When Princess Huaiqing saw that her annoying sister was gone, she didn't put on airs, and squatted down beside him, holding her pulse: "My palace is a little familiar with medicine..."
As soon as I touched the pulse, it was indeed beating very fast, and Xu Tongluo's heartbeat must have intensified at this moment.
"His Royal Highness..." Xu Qi'an held Huaiqing's tenderness and said painfully: "Since the humble position stepped into the realm of refining the gods, I have headaches from time to time. Wei Gong said it was the cause of the agitation of the soul, maybe when , The soul was separated and died."
Huai Qing was taken aback. She didn't even know about it, so she didn't immediately withdraw her little hand.
When Biaoxiang ordered the guards to go to the hospital and returned to the yard, he found Xu Qi'an patted the dust on his body unchanged.
The disgusting Huai Qing squatted by the barrel to wash his hands.
"Are you okay?" Biaozhu said in amazement.
"It's okay, it's a pain, it will be fine in a while." Xu Qi'an waved his hand with a tired expression.
Phew... Almost overturned the car, but fortunately I was quick to respond. Otherwise, if I let the sisters know that I wrote them the same love letter and gave them the same lotus petals, Huaiqing can't bear it, and the mounting can't bear it....The goodwill will definitely fall to the bottom... ...Xu Qi'an did a beautiful job, not only holding the steering wheel, but also holding Huaiqing's little hand...He cheered for himself in his heart.
Huaiqing lowered his head and did not speak, his small hands were pinched red, as if the temperature of Xu Qi'an still remained.
Biaobian looked at him suspiciously.
.........
The Crab Pavilion is on the west side of the palace, far away from the palace garden where the concubines gather. It is a large courtyard.
At this hour, the maids had already left the crab pavilion and went to work everywhere in the palace. There is only one maternal in charge, lying on a big chair basking in the early spring morning sun.
The age spots on her face are clear in the sun, her body is out of shape, her hair is gray, and a hosta is simply inserted.
"Mother Rong, Mother Rong..."
The little yelled a few times, and the old mother woke up quietly.
Mother Rong? !
Xu Qi'an's childhood memories were recalled, and a famous line appeared involuntarily in his mind:
The emperor, do you remember Mother Rong by the Daming Lake?
"The two are down." The said.
Mother Rong took a closer look, and she found that the two most beautiful princesses in the palace came together.
She got up at an agile speed that was not suitable for her age, and while saluting, she shouted: "The old slave has seen two highnesses."
Huaiqing looked at her and said, "My palace accompanied Mrs. Xu to investigate the case. It is about the female corpse retrieved from the well today. Say what you know."
Mother Rong nodded.
Upon seeing this, Xu Qi'an was no longer silent and asked: "Who caught the body and when was it discovered?"
"It was Xiaoyu who discovered it. She went to the well to fetch water this morning and noticed that the bucket fell into the water. It was a bit dull. She lay on the well and watched for a long time. Hey, it turned out to be a corpse." The old mother looked very excited.
Xu Qi'an pointed to the stone well under the locust tree: "Is that one?"
"Yes."
He walked to the side of the well and looked inside. The shaft was deep, his sight dim, and the well water was like a mirror.
With the eyes of ordinary people, it really takes a long time to distinguish a body in such a dark well.
"No one found out yesterday?" Xu Qi'an frowned.
The corpse of palace lady Huang Xiaorou was absolutely in water for more than 24 hours.
"When I talk about it, I get angry. I found dead people in the well this morning. Those dead girls said, it's no wonder the sound was weird when the water was fetched the day before yesterday..." The old mother was angry when she mentioned it. Scolded:
"None of them pulled out their eyeballs and put them in quietly, causing the old slave to drink the dead water for two days."
Mount mounted looked disgusted.
The corner of Xu Qi'an's mouth twitched: "Mother, do you know that Huang Xiaorou?"
The old mother was taken aback for a moment: "Huang what?"
Xu Qi'an said, "Huang Xiaorou~EbookFREE.me~ Grandma's eyes widened: "What Xiaorou? "
Xu Qi'an said angrily: "I'm not asking you Ma Dongmei, you don't need to answer me like this."
The mother thought for a long time, and she suddenly realized: "The old slave just reconfirmed. Huang Xiaorou, the old slave recognizes, recognizes."
Huaiqing's eyes lit up and she understood the reason why Xu Qi'an wanted to come to Xie Pavilion.
What kind of brain is this little gong? It turns so fast.
"You know her?" Xu Qi'an reminded: "She is the court lady next to Fu Fei, how can you know her."
