Everyone ate and found out that it was still early, so Zhanzhao wanted to go to Cao Jian's house in the south of the city to see the situation, and he asked Zhang Long and Zhao Hu to take people to help find the lost maid in Bai Yutang's house.
Everyone was idle anyway, so they walked to the south of the city together as if they were eating.
Zhanzhao's popularity can be seen from the number of people who greeted him, he inquired all the way, and really heard a lot of comments about that "Cao Jian".
Everyone summed up slightly, Cao Jian is a small talent, his family background is not good, and he has no future.
Originally, it was unclear with a certain maid.,People look good and romantic.,It's good to provoke the girl's family.。
But recently, I climbed into a good family, and after becoming a son-in-law, I was reborn, looking at a horse tone, and I was arrogant.
Cao Jian happened last night, it is said that the house suddenly caught fire, and Cao Jian didn't know why he was trapped in the study and didn't come out, and he ended up dead without a body.
Zhanzhao Baiyutang and they arrived at the door of the house that was on fire, the Yellow Gate in the south of the city, and the owner of the house was Huang Yuanwai, who opened the cloth workshop.
There are a lot of wealthy families in Kaifeng Mansion, and Huang Yuanwai is not particularly rich, but the house is still very decent, but it is sad and bleak at this time, and he is preparing for a funeral.
The most sad thing is that his daughter became a widow when she got married, she passed out last night and has not woken up yet, and she doesn't know how to live in the future, and the old couple is only left with sighs and tears. was worried, and the housekeeper came in and said, "Master, someone from Kaifeng Mansion has come." ” Huang Yuanwai was slightly stunned, "Who is coming from Kaifeng Mansion?"
"Zhan-sama."
Huang Yuanwai was shocked, "Zhanzhao" "yes."
The housekeeper nodded, "I said I wanted to ask my uncle about it." ” Huang Yuanwai slapped the table and stood up, startling his wife.
"Master" Mrs.
Huang was puzzled.
"I just think how can Hao Duanduan catch fire, don't ask, someone is worried about my son-in-law, don't someone murder him" Huang Yuanwai said to the housekeeper, "Hurry up and invite Lord Zhan in" The butler nodded, thought for a moment, and added, "He also brought a lot of people." ” "It's the yacha of Kaifeng Mansion" Huang Yuanwai felt that it was not unusual, Zhanzhao was a four-grade official, Kaifeng Mansion was also a magnificent yamen, where was there a reason for someone to come out to handle the case.
"It doesn't look like it."
The housekeeper arrived, "Well, a boy in white clothes, handsome, and a very handsome scholar, still holding a child, and a man in black clothes, looking a little scary, and another with fiery red hair" Huang Yuanwai was preoccupied, and was annoyed by the housekeeper, so he stomped his feet, "Oh, you don't care who he is, as long as it is brought by Zhanzhao, please come in" "Yes," the butler hurriedly ran.
After Zhan Zhao and the others entered the Huang Mansion, they sat down in the living room to drink tea, and Huang Yuan came out to greet him, first making amends to Zhan Zhao, saying that there was a funeral at home and he couldn't go out to greet him Zhanzhao waved his hand, so that he was not polite, he came for business.
Huang Yuanwai asked Zhanzhao what was the matter.
Zhan Zhao thought about it, and didn't say much about the maid in Baifu, not that he deliberately concealed or favored anyone, but now the situation is unclear, in case the matter spreads, it is estimated that it will make people panic in Kaifeng Mansion.
"I was just eating when I heard someone mention that there was a fire in the house outside the staff for no reason."
Zhan Zhao said, "I feel a little strange, so I want to take a look at the burning house and Cao Gongzi's corpse, I don't know if it's convenient or not." ” "Convenient" Huang Yuanwai nodded, "I also think that my son-in-law died strangely, Lord Zhan is willing to take a look, I am also so relieved, if it is a natural disaster, then I will admit it, but if someone plots to kill my son-in-law and make my daughter widowed, Lord Zhan, you want to help me get justice, I must go to Kaifeng Mansion to complain about my grievances." ” Zhanzhao nodded, and Huang Yuanwai stood up and led the way.
What caught fire was the study of the Huang Mansion, which was almost burned to the ground, the beams of the house were burned to charcoal, and the entire house collapsed.
Ouyang Shaozheng squatted down and knocked on the charcoal that was as hard as a stone, looked around, and saw that everything else was intact except for the study.
Ouyang raised his head and glanced at Zhao Pu, Zhao Pu looked at Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang, everyone knew that this kind of weather was not dry and windy, how could a good one burn so thoroughly, unless it was poured with fire oil "Can I take a look at the corpse?"
Gongsun asked Huang Yuanwai "Okay, in the mourning hall in front."
Huang Yuanwai wanted to lead the way, and glanced at the little fourth son with some concern, as if he was puzzled that the child would also enter the mourning hall to see the corpse Gongsun remembered that although the fourth son was not afraid of corpses, there was no need to look at them more, so he took the opportunity to hand it over to others to help hug it.
Zhao Pu stretched out his hand, "Come, little fourth." ” Usually, Gongsun is not available, and the first one to pounce on the fourth son must be Zhao Pu.
It's the same this time, when Zhao Pu just opened his hand, Xiao Sizi also opened his hand, smiling as if he was about to pounce, but as soon as he was halfway through, Xiao Sizi suddenly seemed to think of something, pouted, turned around closely, and pounced on Bai Yutang.
Bai Yutang was slightly stunned, instinctively reached out to catch it, dragged the little fourth son, and the two looked at each other.
The little fourth son puffed out his cheeks and stared at Bai Yutang, which means that he wants you to hug him Bai Yutang looked at the little fourth son, and then at Zhao Pu Zhao Pu covered his heart and felt sad, the little fourth son hated him Zhan Zhao was also a little puzzled, and touched Zhao Pu lightly, what does that mean to him Zhao Pu was wronged, his head shook like a rattle in June, Lao Tzu took him as his own son Ouyang touched his chin, "Could it be that the fourth son of the little one has seen through the rogue physique of the prince, and thinks that the one who is close to the ink is black and the one who is close to Zhu is red, and the child has a future."
Zhan Zhao looked at him speechlessly, and Ouyang smiled evilly.
Gongsun followed Master Wang into the mourning hall, and he was also looking at the situation behind him, and he was a little puzzled if the little fourth son didn't claim to like Zhao Pu the most, and he talked about it all night in a carriage last night, and he didn't know what Zhao Pu could talk about when he was big and small, and he could chat with a four-and-a-half-year-old group for one night, why did the little fourth son suddenly ignore him today However, Gongsun didn't have time to think about it, so he went into the mourning hall with Huang Yuanwai, and after putting on the incense, he said "rudeness" and went to check Cao Jian's body in the coffin.
Outside the courtyard, Zhan Zhao followed him in because of his official business, Zhao Pu went to the corner of the station to treat his heartache, and Ouyang patted him on the shoulder to comfort him. left Bai Yutang to stand in the courtyard with the little fourth son in his arms and look at him.
Xiao Sizi twisted twice, feeling very uncomfortable being held.
Bai Yutang was also uncomfortable hugging, and couldn't help but ask the little fourth son, "What's wrong?"
The little fourth son pouted and muttered in a low voice.
Xiao Sizi's voice was really soft, but Bai Yutang heard it, as if he was talking about something, "Jiujiu said that no one can look down on it" Bai Yutang frowned, "No one can look down on anything" The fourth son muttered and said that Zhao Pu's mother asked him to marry, but he said that no one looked down on him.
Bai Yutang was curious, "So what?"
Xiao Sizi pouted, "Daddy is so good, he can't even look down on him." ” Bai Yutang raised his eyebrows, crying and laughing, seeing that Zhao Pu was still secretly looking here in the distance, he seemed to care very much about why the little fourth son ignored him.
Bai Yutang leaned into Xiao Sizi's ear and whispered, "You misunderstood, Zhao Pu said that the one who can't look down on is a woman." ” The little fourth son was stunned, "woman" "Your dad is a man."
Bai Yutang said, raised his head to help the fourth son and asked Zhao Pu, "Do you like Gongsun?"
Zhao Pu was inexplicable when he heard it, and nodded without pondering Bai Yutang's words.
Bai Yutang raised his eyebrows at the little fourth son, which means that no one can look down on it, so he can look down on your father Xiao Sizi's originally calm face turned upward, and a smile came out Bai Yutang secretly sighed, the dumplings with a sad face and the dumplings with smiling eyebrows looked really different.

After thinking about it, Bai Yutang walked over and put the little fourth son into Zhao Pu's hand.
Zhao Pu took it stupidly.
The little fourth son hugged his neck and called out sweetly, "Ninety-nine" Zhao Pu was stunned, but quickly responded, "Alas." ” The little fourth son said happily, "Ninety-nine, it's the best" Zhao Pu's heart is comfortable, and at the same time, it is strange at the same time, is this ball stuck by the balls when he was eating just now, and the emotional ups and downs are a little big, it is estimated that this is like his father, oops, he is not biological, and he is also exposed to it, don't be like his father in the future, from time to time off the line, a temper is so big, you have to pay attention to it, and you have to guide it correctly On the side, Ouyang Shaozheng touched his chin and looked at Bai Yutang, and then at the little fourth son, thinking about it interestingly.
Bai Yutang turned around and entered the mourning hall, and at this time, Gongsun was already checking the corpse.
Originally, Huang Yuanwai asked a geologist to repair Cao Jian's body, at least when he was buried, he looked like a person, not like a piece of coke, but the geoworker was scared away when he saw it, saying that it couldn't be repaired at all.
Gongsun carefully looked at the situation of the corpse, took out a pair of black gloves made of silk from his waist bag, put them on, took out a knife, and cut the flesh between the corpse's neck.
Cut all the way to the chest.
Huang Yuan was a little disgusted when he saw it, and he couldn't bear to look at it, so he hurriedly ran outside to breathe.
Zhanzhao didn't know what Gongsun was going to do.
As soon as Bai Yutang stepped into the mourning hall, he saw Gongsun break open the chest cavity of the charred corpse, reach in, and take out a lung Bai Yutang silently turned around and went out again.
Gongsun held his lungs and looked at them for a while, then put them back, and then reached out and took out his side liver for a while.
The corners of Zhanzhao's mouth twitched, although he knew that it was normal for him to conduct an autopsy, but Gongsun's action of digging out his internal organs was as natural as the little fourth son reaching out to his purse to take out candy, he felt that his throat and eyes were a little tight, and he couldn't look good.
Huang Yuan wiped his sweat outside, and said in his heart that this beautiful scholar who was weak and couldn't help the wind was so hard-handed, it was terrible.
Gongsun cut off a piece of liver, found a small bowl, put some potion he brought with him, put the liver in, and after a while, Zhanzhao saw that the original colorless potion turned dark green, and frowned, he knows that there must be a way.
Gongsun went out of the mourning hall, went to the well in the courtyard, fetched a bucket of water, poured in some medicinal powder, took off his gloves, dipped them in a bucket, washed them carefully, and put them away.
Then they thought that his hands were clean, and that the gloves were waterproof.
Later, Gongsun fetched water again and carefully washed his hands with soap.
Zhao Pu wondered and asked the fourth son, "What kind of gloves does your father have?"
The fourth son replied, "Daddy specially asked the best female worker in his hometown to weave it, two layers of silk, and a layer of oiled paper in between." ” Zhao Pu understood and nodded, "I see, your father is really smart enough." ” Xiao Sizi's smile immediately widened.
Zhao Pu found a trick, it turned out that he wanted to make this group happy, and he just praised his father.
Gongsun washed his hands and said to Zhanzhao, "Cao Jian was poisoned to death, and he was already dead when he caught fire."
There was no smoke in his lungs, indicating that he had lost his breath when he caught fire, and there was a residue of poison in his liver, which may have been drunk into his stomach through wine, which should be Hedinghong. ” "Oops" Huang Yuanwai jumped three feet high, "My son-in-law likes to drink two glasses, especially when he reads things at night, who harms my son-in-law" Zhanzhao asked him, "Who poured him the wine?"
Huang Yuanwai hurriedly called the housekeeper.
The housekeeper was innocent and said that his uncle liked to carve flowers at night, and he usually brought it back from the winery on the corner when he went out.
"The owner of the winery is a deaf and dumb old man."
The housekeeper explained, "We've all bought wine from him for decades, and the neighborhood drinks from him, and nothing has ever happened." ” Zhan Zhao knew that it was not about the winery, he looked at Bai Yutang and saw that she might not be able to get rid of the girl, she had a motive, and she might have absconded after doing it.
Bai Yutang nodded in understanding.
Zhan Zhao turned around and asked Huang Yuanwai, "Outside the staff, does Cao Jian have any enemies?"
"Yes" Without waiting for Huang Yuanwai to speak, he heard a woman's voice sound.
Everyone looked at the gate of the courtyard, and a maid helped a pale, plain woman to walk out.
"Ruiyun."
Huang Yuanwai hurriedly went over to help, "Why did you run out, be careful of catching a cold." ” Everyone probably guessed that this was the daughter-in-law of Cao Jian's family, Huang Ruiyun.
"I know that my father-in-law has an enemy who hates him to the core."
Huang Ruiyun said, "That's a woman, a maid, I don't know her full name, but I know that her name is Xing'er, and she is a maid from a rich family, but I don't know whose family." ” Everyone didn't speak, and they sighed in their hearts, it's really called Apricot.
Zhan Zhao asked, "Miss Huang thinks it was Xing'er who killed Cao Jian" "She killed my father-in-law, she hates my father-in-law" Huang Ruiyun wiped his tears and said, "He is my father-in-law's fellow countryman, and he is infatuated with my father-in-law, but his father-in-law has no feelings for her."
After marrying me, the woman was even more entangled, fair and simple, and couldn't bear to hurt her, so she tolerated everywhere, but she became even worse.
We met her a month ago, and she cursed my husband for not dying well, and that there would be no corpse, and that she would not let my husband go if she died."
Huang Yuanwai stomped his feet when he heard it, "Oh, Ruiyun, why don't you say such a big thing" Huang Ruiyun was helpless, "Daddy, Xianggong is afraid that you will be worried, so let me not say it." ” Everyone silently glanced at each other that this Miss Huang was simple enough, no wonder she was deceived by Cao Jian, it is estimated that Cao Jian was afraid that Master Huang would be suspicious and find out his past romantic history.
Huang Yuanwai frowned, and asked Huang Ruiyun to rest, he will deal with it here.
Huang Ruiyun was still crying when she left, saying that her father-in-law died unjustly, and asked everyone to help him get justice.
Huang Yuanwai asked Zhan Zhao with a calm face, "Lord Zhan, although I don't dare to say that Xing'er is the murderer, she is indeed suspicious."
Zhan Zhao nodded, "Don't worry about it, I will find out, in addition, since it has been proved to be a murder, please also ask Master Huang to write a good case and go to Kaifeng Mansion to complain, so that we can investigate the case." ” "Yes, yes" Huang Yuanwai nodded hurriedly and ordered someone to find a lawyer to write the petition.
Everyone said goodbye to Huang Yuanwai and went back to Kaifeng Mansion, but they were full of doubts in their hearts, how could this be Zhanzhao asked Gongsun, "Sir, are there any other clues on the corpse?"
"Yes."
Gongsun nodded.

"What clues" everyone looked at Gongsun.
Gongsun took the little fourth son, and said lightly or heavily, "It was a woman who died." ” "Hah" The crowd was silent for a long time and exclaimed.
Even Bai Yutang, who had always been paralyzed and expressionless, showed a look of surprise.
Xiao Sizi shook his head, "Daddy, how can you gasp for breath" Everyone nodded their heads Zhan Zhao asked Gongsun in confusion, "You didn't say it just now."
Gongsun smiled and asked the little fourth son, "Little fourth son, did you see that Miss Huang just now?"
"Yes."
The little fourth son nodded.
"Is she in good health?"
asked Gongsun.
Xiao Sizi thought for a moment and nodded, "Okay." ” "She didn't look like she had been stimulated, she was physically and mentally exhausted, and she fainted all night," Gongsun asked.
Xiao Sizi scratched the back of her head and tilted her head, "It's not like it, her face is a little white, but there is no bloodshot in her eyes, although her body is crooked, her steps are not vain, and there is also, her color is normal in her middle and Yintang, and her face is not gloomy, isn't it, Daddy looks very good." ” Gongsun nodded, expressing satisfaction with the little fourth son's answer.
How clever are those present.
Bai Yutang frowned, "Pretended" "That young lady is pretending, not like a member."
Zhao Pu muttered to himself.
"Indeed," Gongsun nodded, "Huang Yuanwai is obviously exhausted. ” "It's a woman who died, so Cao Jian didn't die."
Ouyang Shaozheng frowned, "Apricot is gone" Everyone looked at each other, and it seemed that the seemingly innocent Miss Huang was not innocent at all:
