The Delicate Lady Coroner

When Huo Weilou came out of the Chongzheng Hall, he saw Sun Zhao exiting from the duty room next to the hall. When he saw him, Sun Zhao immediately came up to salute, “Meeting Lord Hou——”

Huo Weilou raised his eyebrows slightly, “You haven’t left the palace yet?”

Sun Zhao smiled and followed Huo Weilou to the outside of the palace, “Such only finished the discussion, and saw that Lord Hou was still in the hall, so he paused for a while. The recommended book sent by Lord Hou earlier had seen it, but these two days The person recommended by Lord Hou is in the future, and I don’t know what the arrangement is.”

While talking, Sun Zhao observed Huo Weilou without a trace. However, Huo Weilou was very happy and angry, and there was no extra expression on his face, and he said quietly, “You are also worth waiting for such a small matter. Where?”

Sun Zhao curled his waist slightly, “Master Hou recommends less people, so the lower officials paid more attention to this girl.”

Sun Zhao is not confused in his new year, but he is well maintained. Now he does not seem to be too old. He is ordinary on his face, but the word “girl” is just a word. Nobody in the Manchu dynasty knows that Wu Zhaohou is not close to a woman. He is his age. It is not small that he still has no intention of marrying a wife, that is, Jianhe Emperor is anxious for him, and although he holds heavy powers, many people seem to walk his way into officialdom, and Wu Zhaohou may see it in his eyes. It is really very few. , And now, Wu Zhaohou actually recommended a girl.

Although he doesn’t provide appointment documents, Jing Zhao Yin Yamen is in charge of the Gyeonggi Penal Prison. This position is not serious. Sun Zhao has never seen a woman work for him. But now, this person The girl was recommended by Wu Zhaohou.

After Sun Zhao saw the document, he was quite frightened. What is the relationship between this person and Wu Zhaohou? If it is someone close to Wu Zhaohou, I have never seen anyone who would let someone around him do the work, but if not, why did this person get Wu Zhaohou’s approval as a woman?

Huo Weilou did not show his expression, but how could he fail to understand Sun Zhao’s meaning. Sun Zhao was born in a family, and his official career can be said to be smooth. Some talents are good at it. He is even more adept at the art of imperial court in the officialdom, so he sits. After securing the position of Jing Zhaoyin, in another two years, he must enter the sixth department as a talent.

Huo Weilou said quietly: “Even though she is a woman, she is good at doing things. If she is a man, she must keep it. But she knows that she can’t be an official. I recommend it with you.”

Sun Zhao smiled and said, “So, the people recommended by Lord Hou are naturally outstanding.”

Seeing Huo Weilou’s expression faint, Sun Zhao was a little uncertain for a moment, so he frowned and said: “In the past few days, the government has encountered a difficult case. When the official was in the yamen, he was waiting for her to come to the yamen. , But I have been waiting for the future for a long time, and I don’t know why.”

Huo Weilou frowned slightly. With his thin temperament, he wouldn’t delay his efforts in this matter, but this is the fourth day of returning to Beijing. Could it be that he has encountered any difficulties?

This thought passed away in a flash, but Huo Weilou frowned and said, “Maybe I will go today.”

When Sun Zhao heard this, he felt that Huo Wei Building might indeed not know the reason for the period. This was enough to show that the relationship between the two was not as close as he thought. He breathed a sigh of relief. Wasn’t it offering a big Buddha in the Yamen?

Sun Zhao said: “The official has not yet returned to the yamen today, and we will know if anyone has come or not when we arrive at the yamen later.”

It was already sunset, and Huo Wei Tower glanced towards the sky, only to feel a little itchy in his heart. After working for a few days, he copied Wang Qingfu’s house and made a decision on the case. It was so difficult to endure, but now when I meet Sun Zhao, I feel a little stupid.

With a thought in his heart, Huo Weilou asked: “Last year, how many provinces and counties in Gyeonggi have reported the tax returns with you?”

Now it’s February, the last year’s tax items reported from various places have been collected, and after they have been sent to the Ministry of Households, they have to be transferred to the State Treasury. This is not something that Huo Wei Building normally manages. I am nervous. This year’s military pay is expected to be three points more than last year. However, today the Minister of War said that the Jiangnan harvest will be good last year, and the Lancang River will also be abundant in all the prefectures and counties in Gyeonggi.

Sun Zhao said hurriedly: “I am here, in the yamen, and the court is still discussing this morning. I only waited for the newspapers from all over the east coast to come up, and they were sent to the household department.” It will be sent to the Hou Mansion later.”

Huo Weilou said indifferently: “No, I can go to your yamen to see it.”

Sun Zhao was slightly taken aback, and the heart he had just let go of came up again.

After leaving the palace gate, Sun Zhao and Huo Weilou both got on the carriage. The carriage went east along the Royal Street and arrived at the government office within a short time. The government official didn’t expect Wu Zhaohou to follow along. They were all a little hurried. He immediately welcomed the Huo Wei Building to the main hall, and then told the official, “Fetch the tax report from the previous year, and Master Hou wants to read it.”

The literary official walked away, and quickly got a thick stack of books. Sun Zhao personally poured tea for Huo Weilou, and then brought the essay to the Huo Weilou. However, when Huo Weilou saw the pile of books Frowned.

He is actually the most impatient to read these tax report pamphlets.

But he reached out for a copy, and looked around the hall again. Sun Zhao didn’t dare to express himself with his eyes and nose. He carefully savored the look of Pinhuowei Building, and asked the faculty who was guarding outside. “Can someone visit today?”

The ya chap was about to shake his head, but suddenly thought of Bo Ruoyou, so he said in a good tone: “The adults will forget about the villains. There are indeed people visiting. It sounds a little funny.”

Sun Zhao raised his eyebrows, “Who?”

Yachai smiled and said: “A girl, she said she would come to the government office to do a job, and said that the adults, you know, you are not here, so the little people let her wait in the teahouse all afternoon–“

Huo Weilou looked up from the booklet, and Sun Zhao instantly stiffened his back, “A girl? But the last name?”

Yachai didn’t realize the seriousness of the matter, and still a little bit dumbfounded: “This villain doesn’t know, anyway, she is a pretty girl who looks like a young lady from a family, but she doesn’t seem to be able to do it anyway. People, when Angkor came back, he felt she was fooling around, so he scolded him, but the girl was not convinced.”

Sun Zhao’s face was blue and white, “Heh…huh? You…how do I teach you on weekdays to be more friendly to the common people, and don’t put on the air of a lieutenant’s office tolerance! You’re good… that’s it. Where’s the girl? Could it be that Wu Xiang was scolded and left?”

Yacha narrowed his neck, “No… the girl was not convinced, and Angkor took her directly to the Yizhuang. Whether it was a fake or not, you can try it. I’m afraid that I will be in the Yizhuang now. “

It was raining, Sun Zhaohan raised his hand and lit the ya chai fiercely, but he did not know how to complete the field. After a while, he ordered: “You, go to Yizhuang immediately and call people back for me, no… please come back, let me Wu Xiang is back too!”

The ya chap realized that something was wrong, and the laughter on his face closed, and he responded repeatedly.

“Hold on–“

Sun Zhao shook, pulled out a two-point smile and turned around. Sure enough, the tax report booklet was put down, Huo Weilou had already stood up, and Sun Zhao said with a guilty conscience: “Hou Ye, the head catcher of our government office. He is a vulgar person, and I blame the lower officials for not telling him…”

Huo Weilou didn’t see any anger, and said quietly: “Although it was recommended by this lord, it is reasonable for people in the government to question her. You don’t need to call someone back. You go to Yizhuang with this lord to have a look. That’s it.”

Where did Sun Zhao dare to say anything, he immediately ordered the people to prepare the carts and horses.

Huo Weilou came to the mansion and said that he was reading the tax report, but the tax report booklet hadn’t turned two pages, and he left before sitting on the stool. Sun Zhao didn’t know what he meant, but he was sure of this girl. In Huo Weilou’s heart, his status is definitely not low.

Huo Wei Building’s carriage was in front, Sun Zhao’s carriage was behind, and it took two sticks of fragrant time to get outside of Yizhuang. It was the beginning of night at this time. Huo Wei Building’s carriage with double bridles in front was faster than Sun Zhao. After a lot of rides, seeing that the carriage in front had stopped, Sun Zhao kept urging the coachman, but before he arrived, Huo Weilou got out of the carriage and entered the Yizhuang.

Huo Weilou was very impatient. He knew even more that Bo Ruoyou suddenly came to the government office, which would be more or less questionable. He thought it was his recommendation, and Sun Zhao is a wise man who can make everything go smoothly for her, but he never expected it. When she came, she ran into Sun Zhao’s absence, and was brought directly to Yizhuang by a rough head-catcher.

It was nothing to let her do an autopsy, he was afraid that she would be unnecessarily bullied because of her inexperience in officialdom.

But he did not expect that before entering the door, he first heard her call someone else “Big Brother”, just crossed the threshold, and heard her say “I have nothing to do with Wu Zhaohou”, Huo Weilou only felt a rush in his heart. The cold wind is really sour and cold.

Bo Ruoyou didn’t expect to see Huo Weilou at this time anyway, she broke her words and couldn’t help but uttered, “Master Hou——”

Wu Xiang turned his back to the door, seeing her cut off, and then asked, “Why, Lord Hou? You have nothing to do with him, then what does he recommend you to do? I heard that Wu Zhaohou doesn’t even have a maidservant beside him…”

Bo Ruoyou couldn’t understand what Wu Xiang was talking about, and just asked, “Why is Lord Hou here?”

Wu Xiang raised his brows, and turned around and said, “How come–“

“Meeting” Wu Xiang shut up only halfway through. Huo Weilou had been to the government office, and he had seen him twice, so Wu Xiang recognized it at a glance. The others froze, thinking of what Shi Cai said , I just wanted to bite off my tongue, but it wasn’t a stunned kid, and he immediately stepped back and bowed his hand, “pay respect to Lord Hou.”

Uncle Kun and the other two yamen behind were also stunned. At this time, Sun Zhao ran in from behind, sweating profusely, “Hou’s carriage is really fast, and the lower officials can’t keep up—”

Speaking of seeing many people standing in the atrium, he naturally saw Bo Ruoyou at a glance.

Before seeing Bo Ruoyou, Sun Zhao was still a little bit uncertain about Huo Weilou’s intention to treat Bo Ruoyou, but now that he saw the real person, the uncertainty in Sun Zhao’s heart disappeared. He dared to bet on his official destiny. To say that Huo Weilou has no intention of this thin girl is really a ghost!

Huo Weilou looked at Bo Ruoyou, then glanced at Wu Xiang, and then said: “This is Master Jing Zhao Yin Sun.”

This was naturally addressed to Bo Ruoyou. She took a step forward and blessed her body, “My lord.”

Sun Zhao immediately raised his hand and gave a false support. “Girl, please. I’ve been waiting for the girl, but I didn’t expect that the girl would come when I was not in Yamen today.” He glared at Wu Xiang and gave Bo Ruo amiably. Said quietly: “In fact, there is no need to come to the post-mortem, Hou Ye recommended, I am naturally at ease with the girl, in the future the girl will help in the yamen, it is really good, but our government does not have many cases, the girl usually only depends on her own mind. .”

Bo Ruo nodded quietly, looked at Sun Zhao, then at Huo Wei Tower, and wondered: “How come Lord Hou and the adults come together, but there are tolerances?”

Huo Weilou squinted his eyes. When Sun Zhao saw this scene, he felt a little suspicious in his heart. He quickly said: “Master Hou heard that you are doing an autopsy here, so he plans to come and see, how, the autopsy is over?”

Wu Xiang heard the words and said: “After the examination, Miss Bo is really good at autopsy.”

Sun Zhao also didn’t know whether Wu Xiang’s words were true or false, but in front of Huo Weilou, he only needed the word “peng”, “Look, the person recommended by Lord Hou is naturally very good at it, so today is really hard work. It’s too late at this moment, I don’t know the Lord Hou——”

Sun Zhao’s diligence was seen in the eyes, and Bo Ruoyou realized that Huo Weilou came to see her. She was a little happy in her heart, so she listened to Huo Wei’s corridor: “It’s really late, it’s all gone. bought.”

Huo Weilou took another look at Bo Ruoyou, then turned and walked out. Bo Ruoyou was stunned. Sun Zhao couldn’t help saying, “Hurry up, Hou Ye is here to see you.”

Bo Ruoyoufu blessed his body, and then he left the gate of Yizhuang. When he went outside, he saw that Huo Weilou was already in the carriage. At this moment, he opened the curtain to look at her, “You come up–“

Bo Ruoyou walked to the front of the carriage and glanced at Zheng Liang somewhat helplessly. Zheng Liang was sad, and he didn’t know what Wu Zhaohou meant. The falling curtain was lifted again, and Huo Wei said in the corridor: “You go back to the house, a little while. Later Benhou will send her back.”

Bo Ruoyou frowned for a while, then confessed to Zheng Liang, “Then Liangshu will go back first.”

Zheng Liang wanted to say something but stopped, but this is Wu Zhaohou, how dare he defy, so he saluted, got into his own carriage and left.

Inside Yizhuang, he smiled and watched Bo Ruoyou leave. When the footsteps were a little farther away, Sun Zhao smiled, turned and changed his face, and said angrily, “Well, Wu Xiang, you know you almost broke me. This is a big event! If it weren’t for seeing you with me for many years, I would really like to revoke your position!”

Wu Xiang knew that what Bo Ruoyou said was true, so he said with a bitter expression: “This… the grown-up hasn’t explained it. I saw a little girl coming to do a job in a humble job. I thought this was a trouble, right? I brought it here to try it out.”

Sun Zhao snorted, “Fortunately, you are clever, and you know how to do it better, otherwise it will save the face of Lord Hou, and I really want to save you, but I can’t save you.”

At this time, Wu Xiang looked straight, “My lord… what the humble job said just now is not a flattery. This little girl really does an autopsy. It is said that there is one aspect of this case that we have ignored. If the adults are not in a hurry, let’s go in. Look at the corpse?”

Sun Zhao raised his eyebrows, thinking that it was all coming, but after all he would follow Wu Xiang to the back hall.

…

Bo Ruoyou climbed into the carriage and got into the carriage shortly. At a glance, she saw the Huoweilou Buddha sitting in it. She looked around the corner and sat down, and then asked, “Why did Lord Hou come here?”

Huo Weilou looked at Bo Ruoyou, his phoenix eyes deep: “Why did you come to the Yamen today?”

He didn’t answer the question, Bo Ruoyou didn’t feel anything, and said, “I helped buy something in the house these past two days. I didn’t think it was in a hurry, so I came today.”

Thinking that Sun Zhao would come with Huo Weilou, Bo Ruo faintly said, “Ah, because of the delay for a few days, Master Sun found Lord Hou?”

Huo Weilou said, “Yeah”, and Bo Ruoyou was a little embarrassed, “It’s really hectic just after moving back home. I didn’t expect Master Sun to find Master Hou, but did he ever delay Master Hou’s official duties?”

Huo Weilou looked at Bo Ruoyou in a weird way. He took the time to come, and no matter who it was, he felt that he treated her differently, except that she could not see anything, she was only afraid of delaying his official duties.

“The beneficiaries who delay and do not delay have come.” His tone was a little unkind, as if he was really delayed in business and a little dissatisfied.

Bo Ruoyou felt even more ashamed for a while, “The people’s daughter did not expect to cause trouble to Master Hou.”

Huo Weilou looked at her coldly for a moment, and then sighed, “No matter, you are recommended by Ben Hou, Sun Zhao is naturally more concerned. If you have any questions, naturally you are looking for Ben Hou.”

Bo Ruoyou beautifully twisted, Huo Weilou smiled coldly at the moment, “When you say that you have nothing to do with the lord, others really think you have nothing to do with the lord?”

Bo Ruoyou was at a loss for a while, and asked, “What about the folk girl?”

Huo Weilou looked at her like this, so he couldn’t beat her anger, “What should I do? The recommendation letter has been delivered to Sun Zhao. Apart from working hard, you don’t want to lose your face, what else do you want?”

Bo Ruoyou had never thought that a letter of recommendation was so important, but he thought that Huo Weilou would not recommend people often, but he also understood a little bit, “Don’t worry, the people’s daughters must be serious about the errands.”

The two were talking in the carriage, the embroidered clothes urging the horse did not know where to drive the carriage, so they drove to the direction of the Hou Mansion. When the carriage left from the desolate place around Yizhuang, it drove into the bustling city in a blink of an eye. Yudao.

Bo Ruoyou opened the curtain to look out, and he was a little suspicious, “Where is this going?”

“Back to Hou Mansion.” Huo Weilou fell three words.

Bo Ruoyou couldn’t help but widened his eyes, and just got into the carriage, and when Huo Weilou had any instructions, should he go to the Hou Mansion at this moment, should she also go with him?

“Master Hou is going back to the Hou Mansion, that girl…”

“Fu’an wants to see you.” Huo Weilou broke her words.

Fu’an hides the public name of Fu’s father, and Bo Ruoyou is surprised, “The people and women also miss the father-in-law very much. How many days are the father-in-law?”

It’s only a few days apart. What is good or bad, and why don’t you ask him if he is good?

Huo Weilou didn’t want to talk for a while. Bo Ruoyou saw him like this, and didn’t know where to offend him, so he sat in a proper manner, with some anxiety between his eyebrows. Huo Weilou sighed, “What can be wrong with him in the Hou Mansion?” “

Bo Ruoyou replied, seeing some unpleasant expressions between his eyebrows, he didn’t know what to say for a while, Huo Weilou looked at her, and then asked, “What is the case in the Yamen lately? Even Sun Zhao said it was difficult.”

Speaking of the case, Bo Ruoyou came to her spirits, and her back stretched, “It was a girl who was strangled to death. The corpse was found in the alley behind the Chenghuang Temple. There is no sign of being violated. The hairpins and rings on her body are all there. What was the reason for the murder, but the post-mortem on the girl found something weird. A piece of skin on the girl’s back was cut away.”

If it was an ordinary case, it would be fine, Bo Ruoyou said so far, and the quoted Huo Weilou raised two doubts, “Pi was cut away?”

Bo Ruoyou nodded, “The corpse is badly decayed, and I can’t see what sharp weapon it is, but the boundary is clear. It is intentional at first glance. But the girl’s clothes are good. When she is strangled to death, take off her clothes. Then peel it off.”

This weird behavior is shuddering, and Huo Wei also has a dull color on the floor. “Has no other clue been found by the Yamen?”

Bo Ruoyou shook his head.

Huo Weilou sighed, “It’s nothing for you to work in Jingzhao Mansion, but there is a mixture of fish and dragons in the capital. From now on, it is best to return home before dark to avoid problems.”

Bo Ruoyou was flattered for a while.

Speaking of this, Huo Weilou asked again, “Have you ever been to Bo’s?”

Bo Ruoyou shook his head, “I haven’t been there yet.” Seeing Huo Weilou’s gaze, Bo Ruoyou smiled: “It’s not in a hurry.”

Huo Weilou’s brows wrinkled slightly, he is not in a hurry for this moment, but he always wants to go back. If he wants to go back, or Bo Ruoyou’s adoptive father intends to tell the story of the year, then Bo Ruoyou will know the door. Marriage, what if she thinks that the marriage with Lin is the intention of her parents, and she wants to win it back?

“Do you remember Lin Zhao?” Huo Weilou asked suddenly.

Bo Ruoyou frowned slightly, “Lin Zhao? Who is Lin Zhao?”

Her reaction caused Huo Weilou’s eyes to loosen, and the corners of her lips smiled, “Lin Shilang’s son.”

Bo Ruo faintly said, “Oh, Young Master Lin, I remember it.”

Huo Weilou looked at her, “What do you think of this person?”

Bo Ruoyou was a little inexplicable, thinking about it, and then said: “Young Master Lin looks quite refined and gentle, and he is also a little handsome. It’s just that the people’s daughter has only a few bonds with him, so it’s really hard to judge.”

Huo Weilou rubbed his finger on the black jade, “If you are married to a family like him, would you like it?”

Bo Ruo shrank back in shock, “What does Hou Ye mean?”

Huo Weilou raised his sword eyebrows slightly, “Looking at what you look like, Ben Hou Ben Hou will treat you as unwilling.”

Bo Ruoyou smiled bitterly, “Hou Ye suddenly said this, which really shocked the people’s women. The people’s daughter has just returned to the capital. How can I think about these things? ?”

The carriage slowed down, and before arriving at the Hou Mansion, Huo Weilou sneered, “It’s too beautiful to think.”

After finishing speaking, he got up to get out of the carriage first. He walked towards the door shortly with his shoulders almost rubbing the tip of Bo Ruoyou’s nose. Between the rise and fall of the curtain, the person had disappeared at the door of the carriage, Bo Ruoyou touched the tip of his nose. The breath of Huo Weilou’s body made her feel a little hot. However, thinking of Huo Weilou’s specious remarks, she felt baffled. She was stunned before stepping out of the carriage. This was the first time she came to Wuzhaohou Mansion. .

Huo Wei Building had already entered the door. At this moment, she was standing inside the door waiting for her. Bo Ruoyou picked up her skirt and picked up the steps. When she entered the door, she felt a strange feeling in her heart. How could she enter Wu Zhaohou mansion like this? NS?
