The Delicate Lady Coroner

In the next few days, Bo Ruoyou didn't see Huowei Tower. The season had entered the end of April. Amidst the sounds of cicadas, the weather became hotter and hotter. Bo Ruoyou thought that Cheng Yunzhi was not in good health, so he changed the time to go to the Hou Mansion. Early in the morning.

I thought Xu could meet Huo Wei Building early in the morning, and the clinker Huo Wei Building went out of town for an errand, and has not returned for many days. In this way, she has not seen him for almost half a month. The only thing that is fortunate is that Huo Qinghong’s poison The onset of addiction is getting slower and slower.

In the early morning of this day, the father and daughter entered the door of the Hou Mansion under the drizzle of Feifei. Father Fu had been waiting a long time ago. After welcoming the two into the guest house, he said with a sigh, "Mr. Cheng, you don’t know how much. It's easy, Shizi actually slept a full sleep last night. It has been almost a month since he was brought here by Lord Hou. This is the first time."

Father Fu takes care of Huo Qinghong personally every day. He knows where he is good and what is not good. He is naturally more grateful to Cheng Yunzhi. Cheng Yunzhi smiled gently and said: "If you stick to it, it will be better, our next child. It’s been three or four days now, and it’s been normal to read books and calligraphy on weekdays, and look like usual. The poison of the son of the world is deeper and slower."

After entering the warm pavilion, he saw Huo Qinghong leaning on the couch, his eyes looked a little vaguely at the drizzle outside the window. Hearing the movement, his eyelashes trembled, but he did not look at them. For more than ten days, he has always So few words.

When Cheng Yun asked the pulse, Huo Qinghong was very cooperative, but the person was still apathetic and did not speak, Cheng Yunzhi did not mind. After seeing the situation, he began to apply the needle. When the needle was applied, Fu Gong Gong and Bo Ruo were in the hall. Waiting, Father Fu sighed, "Seeing everyone is like this. The father-in-law and his wife came together two days ago and they didn't talk very much. I wonder if the poison of the golden anoint poisoned the brain of the world, Mr. Cheng said. Yes, this poison hurts the brain."

Bo Ruoyou thought for a while, "It's just a little improvement right now. Father-in-law doesn't need to worry. The son has never suffered before, but now it's suffering, some changes in mood are normal, and his body is unwell, so naturally it is difficult for him to take care of other things. I have read the documents recorded by the yamen. Those who have been anointed with gold for more than a month, although they are addicted to drugs, have a clear mind when they are not poisoned, so the father-in-law can rest assured for the time being."

Father-in-law Fu sighed, with deep worries in his eyes, how easy it is to rest assured.

After the acupuncture treatment, Bo Ruoyou accompanied Cheng Yunzhi to leave. When Fu Gonggong sent her off, he said: "Hoye is afraid that he will return tomorrow. This time I went to the old house of Weijia in Qinshui County. This case can be transferred to the Ministry of Criminal Affairs and Dali Temple for review and finalization. There are many people involved this time, and I don't know when the trial will be completed."

Bo Ruoyou only felt that the Huo Wei Building must be very complicated, and it was difficult to ask too many questions. He only remembered that Huo Wei Building was about to return and got on the carriage with Cheng Yun. On the way, Cheng Yunzhi talked about the illness in the city, in the Chengnan sick camp. Although there are regular doctors, the hospital has not yet formulated a detoxification strategy. It is said that the officials in the sick camp are all overwhelmed.

Bo Ruoyou was born with the thought of going to the Yamen for a while. When she reached the door of the house, Cheng Yun got into the carriage, and Zhou Liang drove to the Yamen again. In the past few days, she went to the Yamen for two times, so there is no doubt about the case. I'm not going there every day, but now I want to ask what is the situation in the city, and if Cheng Yunzhi's method is to be told to the hospital, it is quite the same. For one thing, Cheng Yunzhi's fragrant pills vary from person to person. Secondly, There are not many people who can treat illnesses with acupuncture like Cheng Yunzhi.

After half an hour of wandering, the carriage stopped outside the yamen. As soon as Bo Ruoyou entered the yamen gate, he saw Wu Xiang sitting on the steps of the duty room covered in blood. Hou Yang brought a basin of water, and Wu Xiang grinned. Bo Ruoyou was taken aback by washing the blood stains on his body and hands, and hurriedly stepped forward.

Wu Xiang was happy when she saw her, and then he pulled out a wry smile, "It's not that I was injured, but that I rescued someone in the morning. In a family in the south of the city, the eldest son inhaled the golden ointment and hallucinated and regarded his father as his own. In the early years, an old enemy took a knife to cut his father, and then held his father on the bridge. Whoever dared to approach would kill him and jump into the river."

Wu Xiang's hands were washed clean, but the clothes were still full of blood. He sighed, "His father lost too much blood, and when he was rescued, he had died of breath--"

Bo Ruoyou felt a chill in his heart, "Why didn't you send people to the sick camp?"

Wu Xiang sighed again, "Mostly they don’t trust the yamen, and they don’t give up. I always feel that it’s better to stay at home. Then I left something wrong. The troubles in the past two days were all caused by the golden anointing. , The poison went hacking people, jumped off the building, self-harmed and hit the wall, ran wildly everywhere, and lost people. We are really running on their backs. Only a few days ago, additional staff were sent in the sick camp, because those people were poisoned, unless Put on shackles, otherwise things will easily go wrong."

Wu Xiang patted his robe and stood up, "Why did you come here today?"

Bo Ruoyou hurriedly said, "I'll see if there is anyone that can help, and then I want to ask about the detoxification strategies that can be formulated in the sick camp."

Wu Xiang curled his lips and shook his head, and said in a low voice: "What is the detoxification strategy? The hospital is also very stricken, and he is reluctant to go to the sick camp. An ordinary illness, this time the drug addiction caused this, no one dared to say that he could solve it, and then pushed back and forth, a drag formula, heh, now no one dares to take responsibility at all, and one or two people are sent every day I went to ask about the symptoms, and took the pulse case to behave, but still didn't know how to detoxify. Both our adults and General Xu from the patrol camp were a little helpless.

Bo Ruoyou never expected that there would be no improvement in this Chengnan sick camp. There are so many patients, and there are so many cases available for research. It stands to reason that this drug addiction trait can be found, and then the treatment can be formulated. That's it.

Wu Xiang said again: "Only the investigation of the gold paste is very neat. There is Lord Hou with the direct envoy to take the lead, and the subordinates are obliged to do so. In just half a month, the seized gold paste is piled up in a large yard of the patrol camp. There were only a few people in the city who kept the gold anointing privately. No one dared to sell it again. A few days ago, Hou Ye told the Criminal Department to formulate legal policies. Someone is pressing on it, and people underneath don’t dare to neglect, but the doctors can’t think of a way to detoxify, even if the knife rests on the neck."

Bo Ruoyou understood it best. She thought for a while, "Maybe let me see the medical records of the pulse cases sent from the sick camp? I want to copy a copy and take it home. My foster father is also a doctor. I want to make He sees."

Wu Xiang only felt that Bo Ruoyou wanted to do his best to detoxify, but he didn't have much hope, so he didn't ask carefully, and took her straight to the back hall. After entering the back hall, he saw that there were many account books in the hall. Booklet, several clerks are copying documents.

Wu Xiang flipped through the pages, handed her a copy, and mocked: "Look, this was sent the day before, saying that your majesty cares about it. He wants to report the daily progress, but do you guess whether your majesty has seen it? What we worked so hard to write?"

Bo Ruoyou glanced outwards and made a gesture of silence, Wu Xiang hummed: "Don't worry, I'll also talk about it here, but there is nothing useful for getting these vain things all day long. ."

Bo Ruoyou shook his head helplessly, and only went to look through the records. When he saw that there was still something usable, he found a table and copied it. Wu Xiang asked her to be here when she saw it, and went to find a change of clothes on her own.

Bo Ruoyou was copying attentively. The light in front of him was suddenly blocked. Bo Ruoyou assumed that Wu Xiang had returned, and said without raising his head: "I'm just afraid that I will have to copy a few more copies— —"

Someone chuckled, "Second sister is studying the poisonous method of golden ointment?"

Bo Ruoyou paused with the tip of her pen and quickly raised her eyes, and she saw Lin Zhao at a glance. She was a little surprised, "Master Lin?"

Lin Zhao had become accustomed to her stubbornness of not changing her title. She stood up again and blessed the body very politely, "Why did Young Master Lin come to the Yamen?"

Lin Zhao scanned the transcript of the pulse case she wrote, "I am also here for the golden cream. Recently, the household department has been in chaos, and this sick camp needs the household department assistant as needed, so I was temporarily transferred to the household department to help."

The emperor Jinchen who came out of the Hanlin Academy was about to enter the sixth department. Now it is not a big deal for Lin Zhao to enter the household department ahead of time. She also knows the turbulence in the household department, so she is not surprised, just nodded and Wu Xiang went back. Then, seeing Lin Zhao standing in front of Bo Ruoyou, he immediately said, "Master Xiaolin, the documents you want are ready."

After speaking, he led Lin Zhao to the left side of the back hall. Lin Zhao said, "You will take a moment." He walked away quickly, but after a while, he walked out from the inside with a few folders, to the point of thinness. Step forward: "Second sister, the city is not peaceful these days, you and Uncle Cheng are fine"

Bo Ruoyou put away the copied pages, "Thank you for your concern, we are fine."

Lin Zhao said again: "These pulse cases, but are you going to take them back and show them to Uncle Cheng?"

Bo Ruoyou answered, seeing that he was holding the official document, and it seemed that he should leave the government office, he couldn't help but said: "If there is something for the Lord Lin, go and do it, don't delay."

Lin Zhao stopped talking for a moment, "Then I will visit you tomorrow." After saying this, he turned around and went out.

Wu Xiang was watching from the side, and he didn't say much.

Bo Ruoyou continued to copy the pulse case, copying four or five pages, and only then left the yamen and returned home when he saw the sun slanting westward.

When Cheng Yunzhi saw these pulse cases and medication, he shook his head, “It’s nothing more than the pulse case. The medication is too gentle and conservative, and he obviously doesn’t dare to take risks. This golden ointment is so stubbornly toxic, but they dare not use strong medicine. Effectiveness"

Bo Ruoyou's eyes rolled, "The same goes for the head catcher. The doctors in the hospital dare not take the responsibility this time. Pushing around is a dragging trick. If you continue like this, the patients in the city Either there was an accident, or it was hurting one's life, which is really troubling."

Cheng Yunzhi sighed, "Taiwan Hospital has become more utilitarian over the years, and everyone is as timid as a mouse."

Bo Ruoyou whispered softly: "If my grandfather is in power, it must not be the way it is now."

Cheng Yunzhi's expression suffocated, and he sighed for a moment, "Unfortunately, the Cheng family has long ceased to exist. Once the emperor was still a courtier, let alone the small hospital, it only suffered the people who had high hopes for them."

Bo Ruoyou carefully looked at Cheng Yun’s expression and saw that there was a lot of resentment between his eyebrows and eyes, and continued: “Foster father’s method is the only method that can be slowed down at the moment. Has the foster father ever thought of implementing this method? ?"

Cheng Yunzhi was stunned, but turned his gaze to look out the window, "I never hide it privately. Young Master Xiao Ming also knows this method. If he has the heart, tell his father and then make the doctor follow suit."

Bo Ruoyou shook his head, "Master Ming knows, I'm afraid he won't use the method that his adoptive father came up with to fight for credit. In addition, this method may sound unclear to others, because he is not completely sure, so he dare not. Enabling, the righteous father is different."

Cheng Yunyi didn’t say a word for a while, but his eyes were long and faint, as if recalling the old things, Bo Ruoyou said again: “Foster father ever thought that the serious crimes against the Cheng family back then were really wronged. Cheng Jiaqingyu..."

Cheng Yunzhi looked at Bo Ruoyou. She was not involved in court, and she had heard from him what happened back then. How could she dare to open her mouth to vindicate? After hesitating a little, Cheng Yunzhi asked, "Is that what Hou Ye said to you?"

Seeing that he couldn't hide it, Bo Ruoyou had to admit, Cheng Yunzhi sighed, "Why is it so easy?"

Bo Ruoyou’s eyes lit up. Cheng Yunzhi’s tone did not reject him. Obviously he had thought about it, but it was very difficult. Therefore, he never considered it seriously. When the Fa is really useful, everything is very different."

Cheng Yunzhi was startled for a moment, "Let the foster father think about it."

Bo Ruoyou should be fine in a hurry.

...

Lin Zhao returned to the mansion from the Yamen, and when he reached the gate of the mansion, he saw two carriages parked outside the door. He recognized Bo's frame at a glance, and stepped through the door hurriedly. When he arrived at the main courtyard, he saw Bo Yixuan. The father and son and Bo Yixian's mother and daughter were there. When he came back, Hu was quite enthusiastic. When Lin Zhao saw the gift, Lin Huai asked him to take Bo Yixian and his sister to the flower hall. Obviously the elders wanted to talk privately.

When the three of them arrived at the Flower Hall, Bo Yixian's face was haggard, and Bo Yixuan couldn't help asking Lin Zhao, "I can't really save my uncle this time?"

Bo Yixian looked at Lin Zhao with a pale face. Lin Zhao couldn't bear it, "What did my father say?"

Bo Yixuan sighed, "Master Shi Lang said he is not sure."

Lin Zhaobian also said: "Now the case is still in charge. After they have checked it out and determined who can be transferred to the Criminal Ministry and Dali Temple, the details of the case will not be in the hands of my father. Therefore, my father said he did not It must be the truth."

Bo Yixuan frowned, "If you don't even know, can you only go to Wu Zhaohou?"

Lin Zhao shook his head, "You don't have to think about Wu Zhaohou. Lord Hou is always fair. Besides, your Bo clan is not familiar with Wu Zhaohou. He even gives my father's face."

Bo Yixian said at this time: "We do not know Wu Zhaohou, but...my younger sister is very familiar with Wu Zhaohou."

Hearing this, Lin Zhao didn't want to go elsewhere, and frowned, "Are you looking for her? She just helped Master Hou do an autopsy. She doesn't have such great power. If you make Master Hou unhappy, she can't afford it. ."

Bo Yixian smiled bitterly, "I did go to her house once, but she doesn't seem to take my father's matter to heart. Also, she has not been in the capital for these years and has no affection for us, so she really shouldn't be asked to help."

Hearing this, Bo Yixuan stopped talking, but he thought that Wei hadn't said anything before.

Bo Yixian looked at him for a moment, and seemed a little surprised that Bo Yixuan had never helped her, so she continued: "I didn't expect to trouble her, but I saw Master Hou treat her very kindly at Zhongqin Bo's house before, so I thought So, if she speaks, she can ask if she is in danger, but she didn't expect that she was unwilling to help."

If I just mentioned it inadvertently before and wanted to make Lin Zhao think in a different way, then her words now hinted more clearly. Lin Zhao frowned, "Because of her powerful post-mortem, Lord Hou had a bad eye for her. It’s also an appreciation of tolerance.” After a pause, he calmed down: “I met her in Hou’s mansion earlier, so I deliberately asked about it, but Lord Hou is a person with a clear distinction between public and private. She follows Lord Hou as a messenger. It’s right to be more cautious."

Bo Yixian's eyes reddened, "But after all, it's a Bo clan. She doesn't want to help half a bit, which is really chilling."

At the beginning, they said that Bo Ruoyou didn't grow up in Beijing, and they shouldn't be looking for her. But now, the more they talk about it, the more resentful it is. Lin Zhao is a little at a loss for a while, is she strange or not?

However, seeing her red eyes, he had no choice but to say: "There is nothing we can do right now. The civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty are waiting for your majesty and Hou Ye. Even if the uncle will be affected, he will not die."

Bo Yixian's eyes turned redder, "Brother Zhao meant that his father will definitely be deprived of the official position this time?"

Bo Jingqian is the pillar of the Bo family. If he is convicted and thrown away from office, or even goes to jail, wouldn't the Bo family face a big drop in face? How dare he say that he is one of the family in the future? !

At this point, Lin Zhao sighed, "It's possible."

Bo Yixian felt that his eyes were dark, and he was almost unsteady. Lin Zhao sighed again, "This time there are a lot of officials in prison. However, you can rest assured that both my father and me will try to protect Shi Bo, at least not to let unnecessarily dirty water spill on him."

Lin Zhao’s promise was sincere, but Bo Yixian thought that the Bo’s family would fall, and even become a sinner. Her heart felt like fried. She raised her eyes to look at Lin Zhao. Lin Zhao.

"Brother Zhao, are you really out of this way?"

Lin Zhao looked at Bo Yixuan, "If you don't believe me, just ask Yixuan. This matter has already come before your Majesty, not to mention that there is a lot of involvement behind it."

Bo Yixuan is a scholar, more knowledgeable than Bo Yixian. He is not good-looking, but he also knows that this matter is not the Lin Family can turn the tide, "Sister, you must not embarrass Lin Zhao, this matter... really no one can help. ."

Bo Yixian narrowed her eyes and said bitterly: "Those who can help, don't want to help."

Lin Zhao smiled bitterly, "Yixian, my father and I are really concerned about this matter."

"Brother Zhao, I'm not talking about you... I... I mean the second sister." Bo Yixian's eyes flashed, and said very embarrassed: "That day, outside of Zhongqin Bo's House, I saw Master Hou and her She has a very close relationship. She is a little girl, but she can be appreciated by Master Hou. Even though she can do an autopsy, can someone like Wu Zhaohou not find a man who can do an autopsy?"

Bo Yixuan's expression changed when he heard this, he glanced at Lin Zhao, and hurriedly said, "Sister, don't talk nonsense."

Although Bo Yixian had said this to him, Lin Zhao hadn't married her yet, and he was still a foreigner. Telling Lin Zhao about this would also harm the style of the Bo family. He really didn't expect Bo Yixian to open this mouth.

Lin Zhao even tightened his brows, "What do you mean by this? You mean Master Hou has other thoughts about... the second sister?"

At this time, Lin Zhao didn’t know whether he should go back to protect Huowei’s building, or whether he should go back to protect the thin and quiet, and said unhappily: “Master Hou is clear about public and private. It’s not what you think. The second sister’s post-mortem technique is also quite clever. I trust Lord Hou, Lord Hou naturally uses her. I have known Lord Lord Hou for many years, and I have seen my second sister help Lord Hou solve the case in Luozhou. Don't tell them like this."

Bo Yixian also didn't know what she was thinking. She was anxious and desperate in her heart, and realized that Lin Zhao was protecting Bo Ruoyou a little bit, so she wanted to tell Lin Zhao about this matter more and more. However, she did not expect Lin Zhao to be so decisive. She can’t help but feel wronged and said: "But that’s what I saw with my own eyes. I saw with my own eyes Wu Zhaohou helping his second sister get into the carriage. What Jun also saw was not that I slandered them."

Lin Zhao was dumb for a moment, Bo Yixian said so truthfully, and said that Wei Jun had seen it too. It was not like a false statement, but based on his understanding, where is Huo Weilou who would pity and cherish jade? It is said that Huo Qinghong's trip is almost the same.

Does Huo Weilou really have other thoughts about Bo Ruoyou?

Lin Zhao's heart trembled slightly. If so, how did Bo Ruoyou resist?

"It's just a helping hand. They met in Qingzhou, and later returned to Beijing together. They are quite familiar. You can just say it in front of me, but you should not mention it to others." He insisted.

Bo Yixian responded hurriedly, "I know it naturally."

Seeing Lin Zhao's expression, Bo Yixian knew that he had believed what she said. She felt relieved inexplicably, and said bitterly: "This time there is an accident in our house. I am afraid that Uncle Lin and Brother Zhao will be criticized. We have hurt you. If my father is really convicted later, I'm afraid it will affect Uncle Lin's official career... Fortunately, we have not yet set the wedding date."

She looked at Lin Zhao apologetically, and Lin Zhao reacted for a moment before she understood what she meant, "You don't want to say that. The relationship between you and me has been decided long ago, and there will be no changes because of these."

Such an attitude was what Bo Yixian wanted to see, but these words made her quite uneasy, but the words had reached this point, and it was the most direct temptation, and she could not make Lin Zhao make other promises.

When the Bo clan left the Lin Mansion, the Chu clan sighed, "Who would have thought that his hands were really dirty? If he wins, you can still fish him out of this muddy water, but now he can't pick it by himself. Clean, what can we do?"

Lin Huai shook his head helplessly, "It's no wonder that he came to look for me several times soon after the incident in Qinshui County. I was a lot worried. I only thought that he was worried about it, but he didn't want to collect money."

Lin Zhao didn't say anything while listening. The Chu family glanced at him and said helplessly: "I knew this before, we weren't as good as..."

Lin Huai smiled bitterly, but did not answer.

In the afternoon of the second day, Lin Zhao brought gifts to visit Cheng's house.
