Zhu Zhen liked to watch Mr. He play Song Ci very much. Thanks to him, Lao Liu also knew a way to tell whether the deceased had hanged himself--look at whether the rope marks were incompatible with each other.
The so-called "eight characters do not intersect" refers to a person who hanged himself. The rope traces left by hanging look like "eight" characters, but they do not intersect at the back of the head.
If there are traces of intersecting rope traces, then the deceased did not hang himself, but was probably strangled first and then disguised as hanging.
The brothers followed what Lao Liu said and took a closer look at Eunuch Huang's neck and found two strangulation marks.
A line circled around the neck and crossed at the back of the head. This should be the mark left when someone strangled him to death.
The other one is "Bazi Buzhi", it should be that he was strangled and then hung up, pretending to be the scars left by self-hanging.
Moreover, when checking the "Bazi Doujia", Lao Wu also found signs of fractures on the back of Eunuch Huang's head.
When he was a wandering doctor, he often saw injuries caused by falls and injuries to people and animals, so he could detect blunt force injuries by just touching them.
So I can reconstruct the situation of Eunuch Huang’s murder...
"He was attacked from behind by the murderer first." This time it was the third child's turn to take revenge on the fourth child. He slapped him on the back of the head. "After taking a sap, he should have fainted."
"Then the murderer put the cloth around his neck," the third child put a rope on the fourth child and said, "preparing to disguise him as hanging. But at this time, Eunuch Huang woke up and started struggling violently."
The fourth child grabbed the rope and struggled to free himself, while the third child exerted all his strength with his hands, as if he wanted to really strangle him to death.
"How strong can the old eunuch be? In the end, he was strangled to death by the murderer and pretended to hang himself." After Zhu Zhen finished speaking, he said: "Third brother, let go quickly, you are going to strangle fourth brother to death again."
"Hehe..." The third child let go of the rope without feeling satisfied.
Looking at the marks on the necks of the third and fourth children, Lin Mi was secretly speechless. How much hatred do these two brothers have? How does it feel like it's real?
~~
After the officers and soldiers close the coffin boards again, the coffin can be sealed and the final conclusion can be made.
"Eunuch Huang was killed by someone, and then he pretended to hang himself." Zhu Zhen said solemnly: "In fact, after the deceased was killed just now, there are more signs that can be judged that he did not hang himself. Even if it is Goryeo's
Even if you work alone, you can make correct judgments."
"That's right..." Lao San nodded and said, "We laymen can find it, how can it be possible that Zuo can't find it?"
"What did you find? It was all discovered by the sixth child." The fourth child rubbed his neck disdainfully.
"We are brothers, and what he discovers is what I discover." The third child said with a cheeky smile, "right, the sixth child?"
"Ah, yes, yes." Lao Liu sighed indifferently: "Now we are in big trouble, brothers."
"Yes." The third child also suppressed his smile and said: "The person who died was my envoy of the Ming Dynasty. The Korean officials cannot be careless. If they have no evil intentions, they will definitely send the most capable widowers to conduct an autopsy, and they will definitely find out.
The death of Eunuch Huang is not simple."
"But they hanged themselves and buried Eunuch Huang hastily. Apparently they had something evil in mind." The fourth child frowned and said, "So, Eunuch Huang's entourage is already in danger."
"That's for sure." Lao Liu nodded and said: "Eunuch Huang struggled violently before his death. He must have been injured on his body and there will be traces in the room. It is impossible that his followers could not see the strangeness of his death."
"So he was killed and silenced?" Lin Mi's face was very ugly. "It's so heartbreaking!"
"Who could have done this?!" The second child was so angry that he stopped stuttering.
"Who else could it be? The King of Korea or the Prime Minister of Dotang." Lao San said coldly: "If it were anyone else, even if they were so bold, the King of Goryeo and the Prime Minister of Dotang would not risk the destruction of the country to protect the murderer.
! Of course, if the only prince did it, he might also cover it up."
"How is it possible? The King of Korea's only son is only ten years old. So only the King of Korea and the prime minister of the capital have this possibility!" Lao Si struck with both fists and said angrily:
"Fucking hell, even a mere Goryeo dares to kill my messenger from the Celestial Empire?!"
"The Korean people are not honest." Lao Liu still remained calm and said: "This is consistent with our impression of them. It seems that they are only respectful on the surface, but in fact they harbor evil intentions."
"Gentlemen, let's talk about what to do now, shall we?" Lin Mi smiled bitterly and said: "The kings and ministers of Goryeo definitely don't want this secret to spread to our Ming Dynasty. Now we carry the coffin back with great fanfare. They have guilty consciences and must have guessed that,
We're going to do an autopsy."
"Well, judging from Jin Tao's reaction yesterday, he must have something up his sleeve." Cai Bin nodded.
"Now even if we deny it, they will rather believe that it is true than that it is not true." Lin Mi lowered his voice with a solemn expression: "Do you think they will stop doing one thing and not stop doing the other? Get rid of us too.
.”
"It's very possible." Cai Bin nodded in agreement: "Anyway, the sky is high here and the emperor is far away, and it is still their territory. So what if they are killed?"
As he said this, he panicked and said, "What should I do?!"
Cai Bin has experienced hundreds of battles and is ready to die, but he is worried about the safety of these brothers. If there is any trouble, the nine tribes will meet him under the spring.
"Cai Qianhu, I know you are panicking, but don't panic yet." Zhu Zhen comforted him and said, "We have five hundred elites after all. It will not be easy for them to eat us."
"What Lao Liu said is right." Lao Si nodded and said: "If the Koreans want to force themselves, they must mobilize a large army to encircle and suppress them. Then the movement will be bigger. It won't be as simple as killing Eunuch Huang and his dozen or so followers.
.”
"There is no fire contained in paper. Unless the kings and ministers of Goryeo are tired of life, they will not dare to take risks." Lao Liu praised the fourth brother.
"Then let's leave quickly." Cai Bin suggested: "Report this to the emperor and ask the emperor to decide how to deal with Korea."
"I'm afraid I won't be able to leave easily." Lao Liu shook his head and said, "How dare they let us send back the news that Eunuch Huang and his party were killed?"
There is a precedent of "North Korea kills Han envoys and immediately executes them". How could the Goryeo monarchs and ministers take this risk? The secret must be kept to the end...
"What if we insist on leaving?" the second brother asked angrily.
"Then they will stop me forcefully." Lao Si raised his eyebrows and said, "But we haven't found out who the murderer is yet, and I don't plan to go back!"
"That's right, if we escape in such a hurry, we will bring great embarrassment to Ming Dynasty!" When it comes to getting down to business, the third child will mostly agree with the fourth child:
"These Korean people's actions are so abnormal. We must find out what happened!"
But they are unfamiliar with the place in Kaijing, and their only contact person has become a victim. Moreover, with their superior physiques and their inability to speak Korean, even if they want to go out to inquire for information, they can't do it...
"Jin Tao must know a lot of things." Lao Liu said solemnly: "We still have to pry his mouth open."
ps. The boss has a cold again, so I will update this point today. Sorry.
