The Tang Dynasty’s Female Forensic Doctor - Chapter 182
[Chapter 183 Yingluo (three)]
“Xiao Shilang, please take a seat. Su Luan ordered a table to be placed on the left of the three-legged table.
Xiao Song sat down on the table, glanced at the surrounding environment at will, and commented, “A very elegant place.”
Not only is it elegant, but ordinary merchants will not build such a stage at all.
When Xiao Song was seated, Su Luan gently threw off his wide sleeves, sat down opposite, and sighed, “This small pavilion and stage were built by me, Aye, for my aunt, but it’s a pity that they are now different.”
Xiao Song raised his eyebrows slightly. If it wasn’t necessary, he wouldn’t have the patience to listen to people’s stories of the past and sigh about the past and the present, but right now he didn’t make it clear immediately, “Ling Ci must be very good at dancing.”
Su Luan’s mother is Hu Ji, and this stage should be used for her performance.
“Yeah.” Su Luan’s elegant face burst into an unusually bright smile, staring at the opposite table, and said, “I used to sit in the small pavilion with Aye when I was young, watching my mother dance. The beautiful person, the snow-skinned red skirt, dances, the huge skirt is like a blooming hibiscus flower, such a passionate dance, I have never seen it in my life.”
Xiao Song picked up the teacup and swiped at the end of the tea, but didn’t drink it, just to find something to do and wait for her to finish her words.
“I thought that Hu Wu was different from the Central Plains dance, and I made a special trip to Chang’an to see it, but… it’s nothing more than that.” Su Luan said slowly.
Xiao Song put down the teacup and said indifferently, “Perhaps because dancing for the person you like is the most moving.”
Su Luan was stunned for a while, then burst into tears while looking at the stage opposite.
Her father would do everything for her mother, even giving her life at any time, but in the end she could not get a trace of warmth from her mother. It turned out that her mother also had affection for her father in her heart.
Su Luan took out his handkerchief and wiped his tears, and said apologetically, “I’m really rude.”
“It doesn’t matter.” Xiao Song glanced at her and said nothing. He took out a piece of white folded cloth from his sleeve and placed it on the table, and opened it gently.
As Xiao Song’s slender hands lifted the cover, revealing what was inside – a bright red bead.
It was as red as a drop of blood on the white handkerchief.
“This coral bead is rare, Mrs. Su, don’t you think so? Xiao Song suddenly looked at Su Luan, with a smile of insight on his handsome face.
Su Luan’s eyes changed slightly, but it only took a moment before returning to normal, “Indeed, coral beads that are as red as blood are really rare.”
“Guess Mrs. Su, where did I get this bead?” Xiao Song asked with a smile, looking at Su Luan who was looking as usual, without waiting for her answer, he continued, “When I found this bead, how many were there on it? The residual silk thread is red ice silk…”
Under Xiao Song’s sharp gaze, Su Luan’s face changed slightly. She had already heard of Xiao Song’s reputation. He handles more than 60% of the cases in the Ministry of Punishment every year. .
Legend has it that the ice silkworm is produced in the wild and wild of the North, and its leaves are eaten. The silk is extremely tough, and the sword cannot be broken.
In reality, ice silk is naturally not so magical, but because of its excellent toughness, softness and comfort, it is one of the tributes. The annual output is very small, and ordinary people naturally do not have it.
In the entire Jushui County, I am afraid that only the rope used for stringing the pendant around Su Luan’s neck is made of ice silk.
“Xiao Shilang really lives up to his reputation. I guessed that you would come, but I didn’t expect it so soon.” Su Luan sighed.
I don’t know what will happen to her. She hasn’t had time to tell Min’er what happened, and she hasn’t had time to find a good husband for Min’er…
Thinking of the end, Su Luan couldn’t help closing his eyes.
“Come on,” Xiao Song said loudly.
Soon, County Lieutenant Song rushed up with someone.
Xiao Song glanced at the clerk next to him and said, “Prepare to record.” After that, he turned to Su Luan and said, “There is someone to intercede for you, although it is not convenient for me to be selfish, I can give you some dignity. If you are not guilty If you die, I will order Wei Song County not to imprison you for the time being, and wait for the criminal case to be reviewed at home.”
Su Luan’s expression was slightly stunned. That person had such a big face that he could make Shi Lang, who has always been disciplined like iron, treat her so leniently.
( )
“Many thanks to Shi Lang Xiao, and also to that noble person.” Su Luan bowed his head and made a decision in his heart.
“No need to be more polite, just explain the case.” Xiao Song was very satisfied with Su Luan’s cooperation. Seeing her slightly relieved appearance, she also guessed that the murder and mutilation might not have been done by her alone.
“Ten years ago, Qilang of the Mu family joined my Su mansion.” Su Luan saw that no one prevented her from mentioning such a long-term affair, so he continued, “My husband is a direct descendant from the Mu family, and after he came into the marriage, he was very repelled by others. Pointing and making irresponsible remarks, I was busy with business and seldom cared about his feelings, which is why he was drinking heavily all day.”
Su Luan’s voice was slightly choked, and he continued, “One day, he said he was going to go home. I couldn’t get away, so I prepared a gift to accompany him back home. Maybe I heard some gossip at home. , I became more and more drunk after I came back. I used to be only in the mansion, but later I liked to go to the restaurant alone, and was carried back to the mansion by the second in the evening. At first, I was worried, but after a long time, it became a habit, and I rarely asked him about it. The thing, finally one night, he didn’t return all night, waited for two days, but still no one was seen.”
The Mu family’s dignified son-in-law came to Su’s house, although it was because the two families were friends, but for Mu Qilang personally, it was a big blow.
Maybe he had a glimmer of good fantasies before he came in, but facing a lady like Su Luan who was better than him in every way, it became more and more apparent that he was a slacker who was idle all day long, and had no idea about a man who still had ambitions in his chest. For you, it’s torture.
“I originally planned to let Qilang gradually get in touch with the Su family’s business a year later, but I didn’t want to cause such irreversible consequences.” Speaking of this, Su Luan didn’t have much regret.
She supported the Su family by herself when she was a teenager, and devoted all her energy to take care of the Su family. At that time, Mu Qilang was just a stranger to her. As a wise businessman, she would never let her An outsider suddenly intervenes in the Su family’s business.
Even if it is to recruit the shopkeeper, it will take some time to observe, not to mention the person who will jointly own the business of the Su family with her in the future.
Now Su Luan is just guilty of not caring enough for Mu Qilang at that time.
However, even if he was given another chance, Su Luan could not guarantee that he would be able to recover.
She was exhausted just by taking care of the Su family’s business. She couldn’t devote more energy to other things. She also had difficulties.
“Three days after Qilang’s disappearance, I sent people to find them everywhere, so I reported it to the official. But at that time, the official searched for half a month, but there was still no clue.” Su Luan said here, his voice suddenly sharpened, and she was always the same as her. The elegance is very different.
Lieutenant Song County hurriedly said to Xiao Song, “It’s only been two years since I was appointed as an official.”
The implication is that the yamen was not good at doing things back then, but it had nothing to do with me.
After Song Xianwei finished speaking, he felt that it was unnecessary. Although Xiao Song did not serve in the Ministry of Personnel, he knew all about the officials of various places. Even if a person from the Ministry of Personnel was arrested now, he might not know more than he did.
Su Luan took a sip of tea and then said, “I privately communicated with the Mu family and went to the door to apologize in person. Because I didn’t know Qilang’s whereabouts at the time, the Mu family couldn’t blame me. After searching for another half month, they still couldn’t live. If there is no dead body, I will discuss with the Mu family and hold a funeral for Qilang in the name of passing away.”
Mu Qilang has always been out in Jushui County, and he has never offended anyone. Jushui County also rarely has murders. Therefore, a big man suddenly disappeared, and most people thought that he might have run away with some lady.
Combined with Mu Qilang’s yin and yang attitude when he returned home, even the Mu family thought so.
If that was the case, it would be like a loud slap on Su Luan’s face. They felt sorry for Su Luan, so they agreed to her request.
“In the third month after Qilang’s tomb was erected, a student from Zhou Xue, named Liu Wen, suddenly came to find me in secret and told me… He saw with his own eyes that several prison guards would use my husband’s corpse to make bandits with them. Deal.” Su Luan took a deep breath and said with a steady trembling voice, “He said he found a place to bury the corpse. So he took Butler Mu and me to the woods in the west of the city in the middle of the night. . . . half a corpse.”
At that moment, even Su Luan, who was used to seeing various scenes, collapsed instantly.
“So you planned for ten years, and only recently broke their corpses to avenge?” Song Xianwei couldn’t help but interjected.
“I didn’t,” Su Luan denied with a stern voice.
Seeing that Su Luan still dared to talk to him at this moment, Song Xianwei suddenly couldn’t hold back his old face and asked, “Then you dare to say that this coral bead is not left by the loose necklace on your neck?”
“Why do I hate those inhumane jailers, but there are people who hate me more than me, Min’er, and the Su family, how can I kill people?” Su Luan said coldly.
She is a businessman, and she is the best at calculating gains and losses, so she doesn’t take advantage of great opportunities. Why would she kill herself?
“So, you will do your best to cultivate that person, teach him martial arts, make him depressed, stimulate his greater hatred, and help him create every opportunity to kill…” Xiao Song said slowly.
Su Luan tried his best to maintain his usual elegance and dignity, pursed his lips and glanced at Xiao Song, and said, “Yes. Because the government seems to be very interested in this case, Liu Wen has already lived enough, but he doesn’t want to kill him at the end. A person was caught before, so I helped her make a suspended animation.”
Su Luan knew Xiao Song’s power well, the more she thought about it, the more dangerous she felt, so she took the risk and rushed to stop it. It was suspicious that she didn’t change into her night clothes, but went in her usual clothes, even if she was discovered, You can also make excuses.
But I didn’t expect to go a step late, Liu Wen has already entered Xiao Song’s trap.
After Su Luan found out, he had a plan and immediately went to look for Luo Ling, but found that a guard was following Luo Ling, so he followed in secret and found an opportunity to sneak up on Bai Yi. She was still struggling to throw a knife in the direction she was hiding, but Su Luan couldn’t dodge, and the necklace on her neck was cut off.
…
In this way, it can be said.
