The person in front of him made Xu Qinghuan feel slightly dazed.
In her previous life, Huang Qinghe finally married Hong Guixia, and the two supported each other and were very loving after marriage. Therefore, after Huang Qinghe passed away, Hong Guixia soon followed him. At that time, she felt both sad and envious.
I wonder if the two of them can renew their relationship in this life. If so, I hope they won't have any more twists and turns and can hold hands and grow old together.
Thinking of this, Xu Qinghuan found it funny again. She actually had a bit of a matchmaker mentality, but she still believed that lovers would eventually get married. If no one could let go of enemies, she didn't have to do those unnecessary things.
…
Huang Qinghe braved the wind and rain to get here all the way, his official uniform tightly wrapped around his body, and his face looked particularly pale under the wash of the rain.
This time he was deceived by the murderer, and not only did he return without success, but he also lost his life. I am afraid that he will be blamed by the court after returning this time, but since he has not taken off his official uniform for a day, he still has to do his best.
I can continue to investigate.
Huang Qinghe cheered up and asked everyone about the case.
"Miss," Uncle Lei stepped forward and said, "I have checked around and found no other suspicious people."
In other words, it is very likely that there is only one murderer who came to kill.
Based on this inference of the case, the murderer met a Taoist priest at the foot of the mountain, killed the Taoist priest, then came to the Taoist temple, and finally committed the murder against Mrs. Sun Er and Sun Runan.
Why did he have to kill the Taoist priest in a hurry? Unless it was because the Taoist priest saw his suspicious whereabouts and came to interrogate him, he was afraid that the incident would be discovered by others, and his success would fall short this time.
If you reason like this, it would be even more strange. Although this place is a bit remote, it is common for people to go up the mountain to collect firewood. It is also unreasonable for a Taoist priest to feel suspicious when he sees a stranger.
Xu Qinghuan just wanted to ask her brother to invite the temple owner. For the time being, she could not alarm Mrs. Sun Er for the time being. She would first invite the temple owner to inquire, and perhaps more doubts would be discovered.
Before Xu Qinghuan could speak, he saw Master Zhang rushing over with an old Taoist priest with a gray beard. Seeing these two people, Xu Qinghuan raised his head and looked for Song Chengxuan in the crowd.
I saw Song Chengxuan talking to Sun Runan. Maybe he noticed her gaze. Song Chengxuan raised his head, his eyes met and his gaze stayed for a moment. Although he didn't say anything, there was a bit more certainty in his eyes.
When Mrs. Sun Er and Sun Runan were attacked just now, Song Chengxuan was only a little suspicious of Mrs. Sun II. Now I am afraid that he has found clues, which have further confirmed his suspicion.
"Master Huang." The visitor's voice interrupted Xu Qinghuan's thoughts.
The master of the temple walked up to Huang Qinghe and saluted: "Everyone in the temple is already in the main hall. If Mr. Huang wants to inquire, just move over."
Xu Qingan wanted to speak, but was stopped by Xu Qinghuan.
Huang Qinghe had his own considerations when deciding the case, and in this case, there was no need for them to remind him. Huang Qinghe should have thought of checking the body of the dead Taoist priest first.
Huang Qinghe said as expected: "What was the name of the Taoist who died? What kind of grievances did he have with people on weekdays?"
Even if a murderer appears in the Taoist temple, it seems that the death of the Taoist priest is related to the murderer, but the two cases cannot be easily combined without investigation.
Cases must be settled rigorously, and Huang Qinghe has always followed this approach. If the yamen could do this, many unjust cases would be avoided.
Huang Qinghe was like this in his previous life, so any case that Huang Qinghe handled would make people more trustworthy. Xu Qinghuan turned to look at the viewer.
The master of the temple said: "This is my young disciple Xuancheng. He has been attending the Taoist temple since he was eight years old. He is the most gentle person and has never had an argument with anyone. He is also the most attentive disciple in the temple, and he will not make enemies with anyone."
At this point, the viewer's eyes were slightly red, and a somewhat sad look appeared on his face.
Huang Qinghe said: "Why is Xuancheng not in the temple today?"
The temple master said: "Xuan Cheng likes medicine. He would go to the surrounding mountains to collect medicines on weekdays. Xuancheng takes care of the disciples on the mountain when they are sick." When he said this, the temple master seemed to think of something and couldn't help but pause.
Huang Qinghe waited patiently.
The temple owner pursed his lips and said: "Yesterday morning when Xuancheng left the Taoist temple to collect herbs, he told me that he had collected a lot of medicinal materials in the past few days and the temple might not be able to use them all. He will keep them for the next few days.
Process the medicinal materials in the temple, and if there is any excess, distribute it to the people who have no money to buy medicine. Logically speaking, he should not go out today."
Huang Qinghe frowned slightly, so what was the reason that made Xuancheng change his mind.
"There were no medicine baskets or utensils used for gathering medicine where Xuancheng's body was found."
The woman's voice sounded, and Huang Qinghe turned around and saw Xu Qinghuan. It was no accident that Miss Xu appeared here. Although Huang Qinghe had many things to ask, now was not the time.
Miss Xu seemed to understand what he was thinking, and immediately said: "Sir Huang, we discovered Xuancheng's body, so we must make it clear about this matter. In addition, there are some inside stories about this case, and we will tell you the truth.
Report."
Huang Qinghe's face got hot when he called him an adult because he was so careless that he lost Jingzhou. How could he be worthy of this title?
Huang Qinghe nodded and looked at the owner of the temple: "Whoever is closer to Xuancheng in the temple, call him for questioning."
The viewer looked at the people around him and asked, "Where is Xuanjing?"
Within a moment, a Taoist priest with red and swollen eyes from crying came over and saluted Huang Qinghe: "Xuanjing met senior brother Xuancheng early this morning and asked him where he was going. Brother said he wanted to go and take a look around the Taoist temple. I didn't have it at the time.
I thought that Senior Brother Xuancheng went to collect medicine again, but later I remembered that Senior Brother Xuancheng didn't seem to be carrying a medicine basket."
When Xuanjing said this, another Taoist priest said: "Senior brother Xuancheng asked me yesterday when he returned to the Taoist temple if something happened in the Taoist temple and if anyone unusual came to the temple.
In the past two days, the Taoist temple has been building a golden body for Empress Xuannv. Everyone has their own duties. We didn't notice anything unusual in the Tao. I replied to the senior brother and didn't ask him what he meant."
now it's right.
Huang Qinghe also had the answer in his mind. Xuancheng often collects medicines around here. If there is any abnormality, he will definitely notice it first. He asked his senior brother if he found someone suspicious, so he hurried down the mountain to check today.
, and as expected, he was poisoned.
All this shows one thing: the murderer had already planned to kill here, so he came to Guanzhong one day in advance to check the situation in order to take action.
But early this morning, he ordered someone to pretend to be Mrs. Sun Er and go out to offer incense. Then Mrs. Sun Er suddenly changed her mind and came to this Taoist temple. How could the murderer have expected in advance that Mrs. Sun Er would come and made preparations in advance.
Unless someone has made an appointment with the murderer in advance, the murderer will wait here.
Huang Qinghe looked at where Mrs. Sun Er and Sun Runan were.
"Master," Xu Qinghuan said, "Is this Xuannv Empress Hall built recently?"
"Yes," the viewer said, "Actually, the golden body of Empress Xuannv has not yet been molded."
Xu Qinghuan nodded: "Then there shouldn't be many people who know that Empress Xuannv has been enshrined in the temple? No wonder there was no one else in the hall when Mrs. Sun Er came here to offer lamps."
Watch the Lord’s jaw.
Huang Qinghe's eyes lit up. Not long after Mrs. Sun entered the capital, how did she know that the Taoist temple had newly enshrined Empress Xuannv? As long as he asked, Mrs. Sun's fault would be revealed.
Thinking of this, Huang Qinghe quickly walked to the house next to him.
Mrs. Sun Er still looked in shock. When she saw Huang Qinghe, she immediately said: "Sir Huang, didn't you go to catch the murderer? Why did you let the murderer follow us here? I failed to trust you, sir, and I almost lost my life because of it."
"Second Madam," Huang Qinghe said, "how did you come here to burn incense? And how did you know that the Taoist Temple Xuan Nu Empress is very efficacious?"
Mrs. Sun Er said in shock: "What's wrong with this... Naturally, I came here after being asked. I just ask for the blessing of Empress Xuannv so that the Yamen can catch the murderer as soon as possible."
