With a numb old face, the old hospital is reporting to His Majesty: "Your Majesty, the locust flowers are blooming in May, and the fragrance of the flowers is filling the garden. Mr. Taichangqing's physique may not be stimulated by locust flower pollen, and he will have some instinctive rejection. Reaction. Now asleep."
The old emperor: "..."
A sudden thunder from the sky and a small rejection reaction destroyed her "God-given Holy Picture" and almost caused her to go on a killing spree.
In the end, she thought too much.
But the joke has been made.
The old emperor didn't want to see the piece of jade again, let alone Wu Chengsi, so she ordered people to carry them out and find a place to put them.
At the same time, an order was issued: Wu Chengsi was dismissed from the post of prime minister and ordered to stay at home and reflect on his mistakes.
There was also Di Ying, whom the old emperor did not want to see for the time being. After all, he was told that he would not have to attend the morning court in March.
Di Ying happily accepted the order.
Get ready to go to Ping'an County.
Ping'an County is under the jurisdiction of Qizhou. The county seat is thirty miles away from the capital city.
The county is surrounded by mountains, with high mountains and dangerous cliffs.
Among the backlog of cases taken over by Di Ying, some occurred in Ping'an County.
One of them is in a valley in Ping'an County.
It was the second day of October last year.
Victim: Han Lixing, male, 25 years old at the time, tall and fit, and made a living by herding sheep.
On the second day of the Lunar New Year, Han Lixing drove his sheep to graze in that valley as usual.
died suddenly.
The shepherd dog sensed something was wrong with its owner and returned home to report the news. When his family and their dogs arrived in the valley, the sheep were still grazing leisurely, and Han Lixing was no longer alive.
The family then reported it to the official.
After an autopsy, the Ping'an County Sheriff determined that Han Lixing died of murder.
Died by being hit on the head with a heavy object. Died at noon.
Ran: No clues about the murderer were found.
Everything in the valley was normal, and there were no traces left by the murderer. Even the two shepherd dogs with a keen sense of smell and alertness showed no signs of pursuing the murderer.
The case was designated as an unresolved case by Pingan County Magistrate Zhang Jian and submitted to the Ministry of Punishment.
The Ministry of Punishment also found no clues and handed it over to Dali Temple.
It fell into Di Ying's hands.
After reading the dossier, Di Ying didn't believe this evil.
He always believes that if you do something, it will leave traces.
Whether you can find out: first, it depends on the ability; second, it depends on the means; third, it depends on how much effort the law enforcer is willing to spend.
Only a few miles out of the west city gate, Di Ying and his party met Song Wen.
From the look on Song Wen's face, it seemed that he had waited here on purpose and for a long time.
Di Ying asked him: "When you took office as a new official, you suddenly jumped from a fourth-rank official to a second-rank official. You just ran out. What do you think?"
Song Wen's state gave Di Ying every reason to believe that this guy just wanted to follow him to solve the case.
The reason why I waited here in advance was just to avoid being noticed.
"What do you have in mind?"
Song Wen turned his horse's head and walked side by side with Di Ying.
While saying: "I used to be a 'good old guy' and had a good relationship with everyone. Now that I have been promoted, everyone is waiting for me to treat them. What's the business?"
It has been a month, and I have been socializing frequently all day long. I am so exhausted that I am still defensive and wary, which is very annoying.
It would be better to follow you around to investigate cases and conduct autopsies, that would make people feel relaxed and happy. "
Di Ying: "...Are you interested in autopsies?"
"Yes, yes,"
Song Wen nodded vigorously, "As expected of Mr. Di Yingdi, I guessed it right! You have to teach me well. I will definitely study harder than when I took the imperial examination."
At the end, he added: "I will work hard to learn, you believe me."
Di Ying: "...You first teach Peng Liang and his team of guards to draw portraits. You need to draw the appearance of those children to help find their families."
The veterans in the "Passepartout" carriage house came from all over the world, and their comrades-in-arms were everywhere.
If a parent really loves their child, after the child is accidentally lost, they will find someone to draw a portrait of the child and plaster it all over the streets.
With the portraits of the children, they are then sent to comrades in various places by carriage and horse. By comparing them two by two, we can find the way home for the children as soon as possible.
Now those children have more or less psychological and mental problems because of the abuse and stimulation.
Di Ying asked some disabled veterans to take care of the children in the cave.
You can take the children to exercise, teach them to play, and also teach them to read and write.
Only when the children's condition improves and can they be sent home can they have peace and happiness.
Whether it's for the children themselves, their parents, or their families. All have talents.
"Okay, this is a simple matter, leave it to me."
Song Wen nodded vigorously again and chased Di Ying again: "You can't hide your secrets without delay."
Di Ying glanced at him, and the old man said: "You want to learn, but you are afraid of revealing your secret in front of His Majesty. In fact, this is not difficult, just memorize a few copies of the autopsy records I kept, and you can fool me."
Song Wen: "...Do you look down on me or your own craftsmanship?"
After saying that, he said with a fascination: "You don't know how amazing you are.
Those charred, sticky, foul-smelling, terrifying corpses, but everything about their lives is revealed one by one between your fingers.
It's like... still alive.
For people to be able to see them and hear them...it's really, really amazing.
You don’t know that when I recited those autopsy records in the Jinluan Palace, it seemed as if they were being materialized before my eyes.
You have the feeling: You really have touched, seen, smelled and tested it yourself.
This gives me confidence.
To be honest, I didn't just regain myself at that time, but it was like my whole being was completely transformed.
Amazing.
Only if I truly learn it can I become a good official. I am absolutely certain of this.
So, you can't refuse me. "
When Di Ying heard this, his expression became serious.
He solemnly promised: "The art of writing is for the rights of the living and to speak for the dead. There must be no mistakes or omissions. I am not magical, I am just doing my duty. Don't regard it as a magical art." "
After finishing speaking, he thought for a moment and then said: "It does not happen overnight. After the case in Ping'an County is completed, you have to go back to the Yamen. That is your duty."
"I will obey your orders!"
At this time, Song Wen, who had a higher official position than Di Ying, was on horseback and bowed seriously to Di Ying with his fists clasped.
Mr. Di, Song Wen is willing to follow you all your life.
…
May 23, late at night.
The heat of the day has completely dissipated, and the cool wind passes through the valley, making the leaves rustle.
The moon disappeared, there were only a few stars, and the earth was shrouded in darkness.
On both sides of the valley and above the steep cliffs, there were leaves blown down by the wind. They fluttered for a long time before falling to the bottom of the cliff and into the valley.
Nocturnal animals in the valley were disturbed.
Wolves are out and about.
