Nangong Xue returned to the room.
I thought about it for a while.
She was wondering what had happened to her.
Why did Xue Mu have something red on his mouth? She thought it was rouge.
Even if there is rouge on his lips.
That... that has nothing to do with her.
Yes, it has nothing to do with her.
Nangong Xue is still brainwashing herself.
"He represents the image of the Chief Inspector. If the image is not up to par, it will be a disgrace to the Chief Inspector. Well, yes."
With great difficulty, she finally found a reason to sleep with herself.
While I was thinking about it, there was a knock on the room door.
Nangong Xue asked: "Who?"
Xue Mu answered awkwardly outside the door: "Sister Xue'er, it's me."
Nangong Xue heard his voice.
I felt a little more excited.
But after opening the door, she still asked: "What are you doing here?"
"Sister Xue'er, I want to explain to you that my red lips are from eating the buns made by Mrs. Zheng Qi today." Xue Mu explained pretending to be embarrassed.
Nangong Xue felt happy when she heard him explaining to herself.
But she still pretended to be calm and said: "Why are you explaining to me? If it gets stained, it gets stained."
"I'm afraid that Sister Xue'er will misunderstand, so it's better to explain it better."
After hearing this, Nangong Xue said without changing her expression: "Okay, I understand. It's such a big deal that I have to come here all the way. Go get down to business."
"Yes, sir."
"Well?"
"Yes, Sister Xue'er."
Nangong Xue closed the door calmly.
But after closing it, she couldn't help but chuckle.
at the same time.
Cui He, the Secretary of the Ministry of Punishment, and Lu Jianghe, the commander-in-chief of the capital, were waiting at Fengtian Hall early in the morning.
Qing Emperor Zhao Hongyin was leaning on the dragon bed, with his eyes closed, and asked Cui He and Lu Jianghe in front of him: "Why are you coming to me so early?"
Cui He, the Minister of Punishment, said nervously: "Your Majesty, there was a corpse fraud case in the capital recently."
"When there is a case of corpse fraud, your Criminal Department and Lu Aiqing's Detective Department are just handling it. This kind of thing is going to bother me too?" Zhao Hongyin was obviously a little unhappy.
After all, the national master Qian Dingzhu Wan told him that he needs to rest recently in order to completely digest the pills he took in the past two days and achieve immortality.
However, there are always some people who bother him.
This made Zhao Hongyin very unhappy.
At this time, Lu Jianghe said with some embarrassment: "Your Majesty, this case involves the Ministry of War. If the Department of Criminal Investigation directly intervenes, I'm afraid. Or should we let people from the Ministry of Punishment do it?"
Naturally, Lu Jianghe would not get involved in this muddy water.
Cui He, the Minister of Punishment, became even more nervous when he heard this.
Ministry of War, these are two words that give him a headache.
He's not going to be in jail.
So he quickly said: "Your Majesty, it is really not appropriate for the Criminal Department to handle this case. After all, the Criminal Department and the Ministry of War are at the same level. How about letting Mr. Lu personally lead his men to investigate. After all, the Divine Catcher Department is also under the special supervision of Your Majesty. Your mission."
Emperor Qing Zhao Hongyin thought it was making a fuss out of a molehill. He glanced at Lu Jianghe and then asked, "Lu Aiqing, how about you take over this case?"
Lu Jianghe was obviously a little embarrassed.
But he could not refuse His Majesty.
So he had no choice but to say: "The humble minister accepts the order."
"Then let's do it." Zhao Hongyin waved his hand: "Okay, you guys go down quickly, this case will be handled by the Detective Division."
Lu Jianghe and Cui He also saluted and said, "Wei Chen, please retire."
Just as Lu Jianghe was leaving.
Zhao Hongyin thought of something. He waved to Lu Jianghe and said, "Leave this case to Nangong Xue."
"Nangong Xue?" Lu Jianghe was a little surprised.
"Well." Zhao Hongyin explained: "After all, she is my noble concubine, and everyone in the palace knows it more or less, so there is not much obstruction when she does things, and the interests of all walks of life are not involved. Go in."
Lu Jianghe also nodded: "Your Majesty is considering that I will do it now."
"Well, go ahead and don't come to me if you have nothing to do." Zhao Hongyin said impatiently.
Lu Jianghe left Fengtian Hall.
At this time, Cui Hyuk was waiting at the door.
When he saw Lu Jianghe, he smiled awkwardly and said, "Master Lu."
Lu Jianghe also sighed: "Master Cui, you are pushing me into a pit of fire."
Cui He also replied helplessly: "Master Lu, this Cui doesn't want to be like this. This case concerns the Ministry of War. It has always been about the Ministry of War, so how can we dare to interfere with the other five departments?"
He chuckled and said, "So we can only rely on Master Si Lu to decide this case."
Lu Jianghe could only say: "The matter is now over. Your Majesty has already spoken. This is the only way."
He looked at Cui He: "Master Cui, when I ask you for someone, you can't shirk it."
"Don't worry, if Mr. Lu needs any help, I, Cui, will definitely do my best." Cui He smiled while stroking his short beard on his chin.
But Lu Jianghe knew.
These are all polite words.
Cui Hyuk will definitely not be able to help at this critical moment.
Not long after, he returned to the Shenqi Division and found Nangong Xue.
When Nangong Xue learned that the Detective Division was responsible for the corpse fraud case, she didn't show too much surprise.
Because she knew that this case involved the Ministry of War, there would definitely be some shirk from the Ministry of Punishment.
In this case, it is very likely that the case will be assigned to the Detective Division.
But she didn't expect that Emperor Qing Zhao Hongyin would directly hand over the case to her.
Nangong Xue asked Lu Jianghe: "Master Lu, did your Majesty mention me?"
"Yes." Lu Jianghe nodded: "You are now the niece of Concubine Mu, and many officials know about it, so it is most appropriate for you to investigate this case, and you don't Will be involved in strife between classes.”
"Master Lu, I understand, I will do my best."
"If you can check it, check it. If you can't check it, forget it. I will talk to Your Majesty when the time comes." Lu Jianghe warned.
Nangong Xue nodded: "Don't worry, Mr. Lu."
Before Lu Jianghe left, he thought of something. He turned to Nangong Xue and asked, "Which department are you going to transfer your subordinates to this time?"
Nangong Xue hesitated.
She also knew that Lu Jianghe must have a reason for specifically asking this matter, so she asked, "What does Mr. Lu mean?"
"What I mean is that this case is unusual. Try to choose some people from hundreds of families who are close to you and have handled many cases to help you, such as Pei Renfa or Ma Guang'an." Lu Jianghe reminded.
After hearing this, Nangong Xue nodded.
Then she also asked: "Xue Mu from the Tenth Division"
Before she could finish speaking, Lu Jianghe said: "He solved a salt production case in Beiquhe just after he came in. He is indeed very capable, but I also hope that he can settle down. It is better not to let him get involved in this case. .”
"Yes, sir." Nangong Xue felt that what he said made sense and didn't pay much attention to it.
After Lu Jianghe left, Nangong Xue came to the training backyard of the Divine Catcher Division.
"Everyone, be quiet."
When she said this, all the detectives from one to ten places lined up neatly.
Waiting for orders.
Nangong Xue then looked at everyone and said: "There was a corpse fraud case recently. I believe everyone has heard about it. This case is currently being handled by our Detective Division."
"Really?"
"I said it would definitely be given to us."
"Actually, I'm also quite curious about what the corpse fraud case is about."
The people below also started whispering.
Nangong Xue continued: "This time I will select men from two of the ten departments to handle this case. After solving the case, you will accumulate your salary bonus."
Everyone got excited when they heard it.
Especially the agents from Division 10!
To know.
The last time they investigated the salt production case in Beiquhe, they got half a month more salary.
This is a lot of money.
Now there is this opportunity.
Everyone definitely hopes that Nangong Xue can take them with him.
At this time, Zheng Jun whispered to Xue Mu: "Sir, maybe Master Nangong will bring you with him this time, and then our brothers from the Tenth Division will have a chance."
Xue Mu knew that this case was no small matter.
He felt it was better not to rush into this muddy water.
However, in front of Zheng Jun's brothers, he still had to show a look of expectation: "I also hope that Lord Nangong will take us with him. If we can solve the case, we can also make more money for you."
But at this time, Nangong Xue looked at Pei Renfa and Ma Guangan and said, "Pei Baihu, Ma Baihu, this time your two men are responsible for following me to handle the corpse fraud case."
Pei Renfa and Ma Guangan didn't expect that Nangong Xue would call them both.
After all, Nangong Xue's care for Xue Mu before this was obvious to everyone.
They even secretly discussed whether Nangong Xue and Xue Mu were in love?
But looking at it now, Nangong Xue is still very fair and just.
Every police officer has an opportunity to open a case and solve it.
Xue Mu was not disappointed when he heard that Nangong Xue did not call his name.
Because of this case, Leng Mei also reminded him in advance not to let him participate.
Although Leng Mei is an outsider, Xue Mu believes in her judgment.
But the brothers in the Tenth Division felt a little uncomfortable.
"Oh, why didn't you call us?"
"yes."
"We handled the case so well last time."
"I thought it would be given to us this time too."
"It's okay, let's do it next time." Zheng Jun comforted the other brothers.
He also thought that Xue Mu was feeling lost, so he comforted him: "Brother Xue, it's okay. I guess Master Nangong also wants to give the opportunity to solve the case to other brothers. After all, we have already solved the case once."
"Well, actually this is quite good." Xue Mu felt that this way he could feel relaxed.
Nangong Xue looked at the two police officers and said, "Okay, come with me now."
"Yes, sir."
One afternoon.
Xue Mu was also bored.
He even asked Zhou Fu to read to him the cases from the previous two years.
Only by accumulating more cases in your mind can you quickly find similar cases and make corresponding judgments in the process of handling future cases.
When he got off duty in the afternoon, he met Nangong Xue.
At this time, Nangong Xue had already brought people back from the crime scene.
Originally, Xue Mu thought nothing would happen without him, so he planned to bow and go home to eat dumplings.
Unexpectedly, Nangong Xue stopped him: "Xue Mu, come in."
Xue Mu was a little surprised and walked into the room.
Nangong Xue said to him: "Close the door."
Xue Mu felt a little uneasy, moving up and down.
Don't know what she wants to do.
I saw Nangong Xue explaining: "I went to see the location of today's corpse fraud case. It's a little strange. I'll tell you and you can analyze it."
After hearing this, Xue Mu also sat down and said, "Sister Xue'er, tell me."
"The first place we went to see, the person who swindled the corpse was Pan Youliang. He was a deputy lieutenant in the army. The night before yesterday was the anniversary of his death. When the family was offering incense to him, they suddenly found a corpse. Sitting in the room."
When Xue Mu heard this, he was a little confused: "Sister Xue'er, do you mean a complete corpse sitting in the room? Not a skeleton?"
"Yes, a corpse with flesh and blood." Nangong Xue replied.
This made Xue Mu feel a little strange.
You must know that a year ago, if he was executed on the spot in the desert, how could he still be in the capital thousands of miles away now?
The most important thing is that after a year, the skin and flesh have not rotted.
Leave this as a mummy.
Xue Mu immediately thought there was a big problem here, so he asked: "Is this person sure he is dead?"
"We also invited Wu Zuo and conducted an autopsy on the spot, but Wu Zuo also found it strange." Nangong Xue was confused.
Xue Mu asked: "Why is it so strange?"
"This corpse has no heartbeat and no breathing, but it has no signs of decay or body spots. This is very unusual." Nangong Xue explained.
Xue Mu asked again at this time: "Could it be that the body was coated with antiseptic cream?"
"I thought about your question at the time, but I didn't smell any antiseptic cream."
Nangong Xue looked at him, "That's why I asked you to come in and help analyze it."
Xue Mu didn't have much clue for a while.
He then asked: "What about Pei Baihu and Ma Baihu, do they have any ideas?"
Nangong Xue shook her head: "They don't either."
"My subordinates can't even think of it." Xue Mu said awkwardly.
Seeing that he couldn't help, Nangong Xue had no choice but to say: "Okay, then you go back first, and I'll look through the book to see if I find anything new."
"Okay, then I won't disturb Sister Xue'er." With that said, Xue Mu was about to leave.
Nangong Xue looked at him, hesitated for a while and then asked, "Aren't you curious about this case?"
Xue Mu explained with a smile: "This case involves the Ministry of War. I think it would be better if I was less curious."
"Don't forget, we are all members of the Divine Investigation Department. If something happens, we will all bear the burden together. Now I am ordered to investigate this case. If no results are found by then, your Majesty will still punish us all when he is angry. People." Nangong Xue replied coldly.
When Xue Mu heard this, he sighed and said, "Why are you still sitting together?"
"So you're curious now?"
Xue Mu heard the implication of her words and followed her words and said: "My subordinate is willing to help Sister Xueer to detect this case."
Nangong Xue was happy when she heard this.
She nodded and said, "Okay, then you go back first."
"By the way, Sister Xue'er, I recently bought some supplements and I'll share some with you so you can take them when you have time." As he said that, Xue Mu took out a small box.
After hearing this, Nangong Xue was a little surprised.
She didn't expect that Xue Mu would buy supplements for herself.
Her face was still calm: "Okay, I understand, I don't actually need to make up for it."
Nangong Xue glanced at him: "If you eat more, it might be good for your eyes."
"Everyone eats it, and half of the love will remain together." Xue Mu said cheerfully.
After he left, Nangong Xue held the tonic in her hand and recited the words just now: "One person is half as good as the other, and the relationship will never break up."
After a while, a shy expression appeared on her face.
Xue Mu walked out of the Divine Catching Division.
Just as he was getting ready to go home.
A carriage stopped in front of him again.
Xue Mu thought it was Concubine Mu who wanted to call him again and asked him to enter the palace, so he asked: "Miss Yun'er, why is it so late, the queen still wants me to enter the palace."
I only heard a strange female voice: "Hello, Mr. Xue, I am the maid of Concubine Wan Gui. My name is Xiu'er. My concubine has invited you."
Xue Mu was a little surprised when he heard this.
Concubine Wan Gui?
He suddenly thought of the imperial concubine who appeared in the middle of Penglai Hall two days ago.
Why is she looking for me?
Could it be that she also has a niece to introduce to me?
You want to be my aunt too?
If this continues, he will really look like Yang Guo!
Sorry, I'm late. I treated my hand today and came back in the afternoon. However, it still didn't go well. I guess this ganglion cyst can only be removed. Forget it, I won't bother with it now. After the removal, I won't have time to read this book. I wrote it, and the doctor said there was no need to cut it. He asked me to move my hands less, apply more ointment, and treat it conservatively first.
I’m going to have a meal now, and there will be an update later. Please remember to subscribe.
