The Tang Dynasty’s Female Forensic Doctor - Chapter 169
[Chapter 170: Your Majesty Don’t Be Willful]
Gradually, Xiao Song began to show some clues – the heaven and earth net that had been quietly laid out from the beginning of the chess game, the sudden cruelty, the sinister and despicable yin*, all of which were jaw-dropping.

And Sang Chen was not at a disadvantage, the offense and defense were appropriate, and the battle on the chessboard was extremely lively.
This game of chess was played for a long time, from morning until noon, during which Ran Yan ate porridge twice, and the battle went up and down, and there was always no final result.
“You may not.” Xiao Song suddenly turned to Ran Yan, with a faint smile in his eyes, “Sang Suiyuan and I have both played chess.”
Serving chess is also equivalent to a chess servant edict, generally speaking, it is a chess player who accompanies the emperor to play chess in his spare time.
It is said that Taizong loved playing chess. Whenever he loses, not only will he not be unhappy, but he will become more courageous after repeated defeats, so he will pull the players to continue playing until he wins the opponent.
“Sang Suiyuan is the only one who made His Majesty dare not ask him to play chess.” Xiao Song glanced at Sang Chen, who “doesn’t hear anything outside the window”, his tone was complicated, seeming to be envious and contemptuous.
Li Shimin did not dare to ask Sang Chen to play chess, not because of his superb chess skills, but because once Sang Chen was immersed in the world of Go, he would never be distracted. He never failed, and he never felt tired. Taizong was willing to accompany him as long as he wanted.
This not only caused Taizong’s self-esteem to be greatly frustrated, but also tested his endurance.
Taizong was dealing with all kinds of opportunities. Playing chess was all about having fun. Playing chess with Sang Chen was like holding back in one breath. Send it out, it seems that there is no measure.
So after the third game for a night, Taizong finally couldn’t help throwing Go, and said in anger: “Can’t you just lose and coax me?”
At that time, Sang Chen was still immersed in the chess game and did not pull it out. He quickly put the chess game as it was based on memory, and said in a daze: Don’t be self-willed, Your Majesty, let’s finish this game.
The result can be imagined, Taizong roared aloud, you return me to be His Majesty and then walked away, grabbing Fang Xuanling and throwing fire to complain: Willful?
I am willful?
No one has ever said that I’m capricious in decades
Xiao Song’s vivid and vivid speech made people immersive, and Ran Yan was out of breath after listening to the smile.
At that time, Sang Chen was only fifteen or sixteen years old. Think of a teenager who said “don’t be self-willed” to someone in his forties. What kind of scene was that?
And the other party is still a generation of holy masters sitting in the world.
In fact, if Fang Xuanling hadn’t been in the middle of that time, Sang Chen would have been in a different place.
When Taizong and Fang Xuanling complained about the fire, they said angrily: “Xuanling, go and pull him out to me and chop him up.”
Fang Xuanling asked calmly: Does His Majesty want to be convicted?
The news of his victory over His Majesty at chess would damage His Majesty’s prestige, and the matter of His Majesty being “willful” would have to be covered up and angered by Shengyan… Sang Suiyuan, a young genius, was astonished and brilliant. The great Confucians of Yu Shinan will definitely try their best to intercede. His Majesty will not kill him at that time, why not give him a collaborator and treason?
Taizong occasionally vents his anger, but he is not a foolish ruler. After hearing these words, he calmed down a little: Well, I am not someone who can’t afford to lose.
Fang Xuanling hurriedly held up a high hat: Your Majesty has a broad mind, and your servants are far behind…
After some praise, a disaster was avoided, but since then Taizong never played chess with Sang Chen again.
“What about you?” Ran Yan almost forgot that Xiao Song was still playing chess.
Xiao Song dropped a child seemingly at random, and continued, “Sang Suiyuan wins easily, but I lose hard. Your Majesty is very good at chess, and it takes a lot of effort to lose if you want to lose. For fame and fortune, or for the burden on their shoulders, no one can rush forward as stupidly as Sang Chen. I am not one of them.”
Ran Yan said that, there were too many famous officials in the Tang Dynasty, and even though Xiao Song was outstanding, he was not the most dazzling one among them.
Ran Yan could see that Xiao Song occasionally showed a longing look when he was talking about Sang Chen.
“Why?” Ran Yan wondered why he chose to be trapped since he longed to be free and uninhibited.
Xiao Song looked at the situation on the chess game, while waiting for Sang Chen to make a move,
He said, “If Sang Suiyuan’s family hadn’t changed, and he had always been the sixth son of the Cui family, he would be like me now. ()”
The glory of a family is made up of how many bones are piled up. Everyone knows that the Xiao family had 30 prime ministers during the Southern Dynasty, but who they are, I am afraid they can only remember the most clearly from the genealogy.
In fact, Sang Chen lost his father and mother since he was a child, and it was both unfortunate and fortunate for his situation.
About the end of the time, Xiao Song put down the chess and sighed, “I lost.”
Sang Chen was not happy to win, “You didn’t do your best.”
“I’ve tried my best.” Xiao Song tapped the chessboard with his slender fingers and said, “Actually, I’m not a fiasco. I sometimes lose, but you sometimes win.”
As soon as he finished speaking, an unfamiliar voice came from the gate of the courtyard, “Xiao Shilang.”
Ran Yan was slightly surprised, to this extent, is it too perverted or just a coincidence?
Before she could think about it, she followed the voice and looked around. There was a middle-aged man in his forties standing in the inner doorway. He was born with a big shoulder and a round waist. If it wasn’t for the green round neck official uniform, he looked like a murderer. Pigs make a living.
The man’s eyebrows were thick and dark, several times wider than the eyes below. From a distance, he could see that his eyebrows were invisible, and his lips were thicker than ordinary people. On one face, only the nose was tall and straight, which saved a bit of color.
“The nature of the lower official does not disgrace the mission…” The man saw the situation on the corridor clearly, his eyes wandered between Xiao Song and Sang Chen for two breaths, and finally bowed to Xiao Song, “Xiao Shilang, you ordered the lower official to investigate. The matter is checked.”
If Ran Yan hadn’t guessed, Xiao Song might have just asked his subordinates to order things before, and he had never met this person at all. Sang Chen and Xiao Song were both outstanding, but he recognized the master after just two breaths. good eyesight.
“Feng County magistrate doesn’t need to be more polite, please sit down.” Xiao Song sat up straight, and instantly lost his previous lazy appearance, naturally with a compelling aura.
Feng county magistrate quickly lowered his head, took off his sandals under the corridor, climbed up the corridor, and sat down not far away.
Ge Lan and Wan Lu retreated to make tea. Sang Chen didn’t leave, but Xiao Song didn’t care, and said to Feng County magistrate, “Let’s talk.”
“Yes, the lower official found out that there were five other people who left the lowly career together with Zhang Xuan and Feng Zhao. It is said that they made a fortune from doing business together, and then changed careers. One died a month ago, and his name was Yu. Chuande, this person is a gambling man and owes a large amount of debt to the casino, so he committed suicide by taking poison for fear of being arrested for labor.” Feng county magistrate was a little shocked by Xiao Song’s calmness and momentum, and he heard about it before he came. Xiao Song had some things, but he always felt that he was just a young man in his twenties, and I am afraid the rumors were false.
But being famous is worse than meeting him. When he saw him today, Magistrate Feng didn’t even dare to lift his head, for fear that his sharp eyes would pierce his heart.
“Continue.” Xiao Song took the tea from Ge Lan, glanced at the foam on it, frowned slightly, and put it down without drinking it.
Ran Yan called Ge Lan and whispered a few words to her.
Feng county magistrate said quickly, “Yes, eight days ago, Zhang Xuan died in the lobby of the Yuelai Inn. After Dr. Liu’s autopsy… This is the test report…”
County magistrate Feng took out a thin piece of paper from the cuff, handed it over, and continued, “The other is Feng Zhao, who was hacked to death in the woods in the west of the city the night before six days ago… The others are Yu Zhi, Wang Si, Liu Fang, and Ze Pingzhi, among these people, only Ze Pingzhi stayed in the county, and the other three are now settled in Luoyang.”
Ge Lan put another cup of tea in front of Xiao Song. He lowered his eyes and glanced at the tea, and couldn’t help but be slightly startled, and then looked at Ran Yan, with a hint of tenderness looming in his black eyes.
Xiao Song didn’t like drinking tea with spices, so Ran Yan asked Ge Lan to change a cup.
This is a very small thing, but Xiao Song’s heart is about to overflow with happiness. He takes a sip of tea, and even his aura softens a bit, “Tell me about this Ze Pingzhi first.”
“Ze Pingzhi, known as Ze San, is the owner of Yuelai Inn.” Feng County magistrate said.
Xiao Song held the tea in his hand for a moment, and did not ask any further questions, but explained, “You write down all the information you found out and send it to me. Also, the life experience of the beggar Liu Wen and the bandits who were in prison at that time. Tou Zhuangyin’s case files are also sent here.”
“It’s a subordinate officer, let’s do it.” Feng county magistrate didn’t even dare to eat a sip of tea, so he left in a hurry.
“Ze San…” Xiao Song pondered, and immediately began to taste the tea carefully.
After listening to Feng’s narration, Sang Chen fell into the world again, stood up, and drifted back to the room like a ghost.
“Does the lady want to enter the house?” Xiao Song turned his head and asked with a smile.
Ran Yan’s heart trembled. Usually, she was numb when she heard the word “Niangzi”. For some reason, Xiao Song’s magnetic voice made her think of the name between husband and wife in an unknown dynasty.
Maybe it’s because his naturally charming voice is too easy to miss?
Ran Yan thought so.
She was thinking about it, but Xiao Song was still looking at her, her cheeks were hot, and she lowered her eyes and said, “Go in…” Immediately, she thought of letting him hold it in, and immediately said, “Don’t go in.”
Xiao Song laughed dumbly and instructed Wan Ludao, “Go and get a cloak for your lady.”
“Don’t you want to solve the case?” Ran Yan euphemistically gave the order to evict the guest.
Xiao Song saw her embarrassment, and was slightly overjoyed, so he followed her meaning, “Well, there are some things to deal with. Ran Shilang went to Luoyang to get medicine, and he will be there in about two minutes.”
Ran Yan looked at his tall and straight back, and suddenly said, “Thank you.”
Xiao Song stopped and turned around, with a slight smile on his lips, and said warmly, “If you’re boring, there’s a case.”
Ran Yan was stunned, and vaguely understood that what Xiao Song did today was to help her amuse herself. If he handled the case in private, it would be faster.
Thinking of this, Ran Yan couldn’t help laughing. People don’t keep their names for good deeds. He’s better, but he was afraid that people would be too slow, so he reminded him.
