Chapter 45 Progress
Su Dawei looked up and saw the tall tiger in front of him covered in dust and sweating, and nodded, "Thank you for your hard work, what have you found?"
"Nan Jiulang and I went to Jinghe and found the territory that Gui Lao said, and then Jiulang discovered this."
Gao Dahu said, taking out a box made of glass from his arms, opening the lid, and seeing many green leaves inside, as small as beans.
Su Dawei's heart suddenly moved after a glance.
“Same.”
"Yes, it's the same thing that you found in Princess Gaoyang."
Gao Dahu thought about it and said, "But I have found a coroner who is good at on-site investigation and repeatedly confirmed that Princess Gao Yang and Cui Huan found the body, there were no traces of movement. It is certain that they were killed at home."
Su Dawei's eyes fell into the box in Gao Dahu's hands, staring at the green duckweed.
The atmosphere solidified for a moment.
The things and behind this case are terrifying to think about.
Princess Gaoyang was killed at home, but her lungs were drowning, and there were duckweed in the Jing River outside Chang'an City in her nose.
This is really hard to explain with common sense.
Cui Huan died at home, his whole body was charred, but he did not make any calls, nor did he find any signs of struggle, nor any signs of fire at the scene.
Everything seemed normal except himself.
This is normal, the biggest abnormality.
"By the way, Master of Temple, Jiulang and I were searching for the Jinghe River and even caught this, but we didn't understand what it is for, so we specially took it back to Master of Temple."
Gao Dahu said, and then took out a cloth bag from his sleeve, which usually contains some debris.
But there were some wet marks in his cloth bag, and only one thing was contained.
When he opened it and placed it on Su Dawei's table, Su Dawei was stunned for a moment.
This is a well-crafted doll.
The clothes, hair and facial features are all lifelike.
Its exquisiteness is even better than that of the dolls in later generations.
Su Dawei said: "Is this discovered in the river?"
"Yes, I was searching the river with people to see if there was anything like what Gui Lao said. Jiulang was sharp-eyed and saw the doll floating on the river at first glance. It was strange that this doll was spinning in the river, as if it was being sucked by an undercurrent.
We found a long rod and finally got it up.
These plants were found on the doll's hair."
Um?
Su Dawei frowned, feeling a little strange.
He looked down at the doll's hair.
It is as dark as a waterfall, with texture like real human hair.
This is rare.
There are also shops selling dolls in West Chang'an. They usually use horse's mane or wool as doll hair. The texture is still somewhat different from that of human hair.
Su Dawei looked at him a few more times, and the more he looked, the more strange he felt.
The doll's eyes seemed to move, and no matter from any angle, their pupils seemed to be staring at people.
and……
Su Dawei felt a stern, and he reached out to try the doll's hair, and gently twisted it: "This is not animal hair, but human hair."
"Human?"
Gao Dahu was also surprised.
Since ancient times, my body and skin have been received by my parents.
What kind of person will use their own hair to make hair for this kind of doll?
unless……
"Witchcraft?"
When Gao Dahu said these three words, he felt his voice trembling.
He understood the importance of it.
"Dahu, do you think this doll..."
Su Dawei hesitated for a moment and said, "I look a little like Princess Gaoyang."
“Yes, it’s a little bit.”
Gao Dahu licked his lips: "But I didn't dare to think about it."
Su Dawei stood up, reached out to pick up the doll, and put it in Gao Dahu's cloth bag: "You are bringing a few people now, taking the coroner, and follow me to Princess Gaoyang's mansion immediately."
"What are you doing? Haven't you tested it?"
"I suspect that this hair is on Princess Gaoyang's head, so I need to verify it again. If this is true, this case will not be handled by us. We must go out to the Secret Pavilion."
What is mysterious and strange will naturally be left to professionals.
If the ball can be kicked to Li Chunfeng, the pressure on Su Dawei would be slightly less.
You can concentrate on dealing with secret hands from Li Yiye and Guo Xingzhen.
As for whether Li Chunfeng would curse because of this, that is another question.
It is not within Su Dawei's consideration for the time being.
"Okay, I'll gather people now."
Gao Dahu wiped the sweat from his head. This time it was not because he was on the road, but because he was scared to sweat.
The dignified Princess of the Tang Dynasty, the pearl in Taizong's hand, was killed by someone, and it has been a big case.
If there is still something about witchcraft, I am afraid that countless heads will fall to the ground and blood will flow into a river.
"By the way, the temple minister."
Gao Dahu turned around and suddenly remembered something and said to Su Dawei: "The Eighth Master said that there might be something in the gray area, so he transferred Jiulang to help."
"Is Cui Huan's case yesterday?"
Su Dawei nodded: "I understand."
Nan Jiuro is now a bad guy, has reliable work and has extraordinary eyes, which is his advantage.
Gao Dahu mentioned this and told Su Dawei that Jiulang could not bring him to Gaoyang later.
...
Su Dawei took Shen Yuan, Gao Dahu and a group of agents from Ducha Temple. He also informed the Dali Temple owner Bo Chengdaozhitong, and brought the coroner from Dali Temple to go to Princess Gaoyang's mansion.
Originally, he didn't have to take him to Dali Temple every time to investigate the case, but at the first glance, he and the princess case were somewhat suspicious. After all, he had met Princess Gaoyang in the end.
Although it was at the invitation of Princess Gaoyang to send "The Record of the Western Regions of the Tang Dynasty" to the princess, it was a bit suspicious after all.
Solving a case is also a suspicion of self-sweeping.
Therefore, people from Dali Temple must be led to their actions together to prove their innocence.
On the way, Su Dawei gave a detailed explanation to Cheng Daozhi about his latest discovery.
Cheng Daozhi was also shocked.
If it is true as Su Dawei said, this matter is a witch curse princess, it will be even more serious.
How can you know that you can't curse others?
Will it threaten His Majesty?
These are all things that need no mention.
When Cheng Daozhi thought of this, his face turned dark.
"Su Shaoqing, we have a very miserable life this time. How can we encounter such a bizarre case? It would be fine if it was an ordinary murder. This case involves both a princess and a witch... Alas, the fortune this year is so difficult."
Cheng Daozhi sighed there, frowning.
Finally, he arrived at the princess's mansion and looked up. Su Dawei, Gao Dahu, Cheng Dazhi and others were immediately surprised.
The princess's mansion was originally tightly guarded, and there were at least two teams guarding Jinwu, but now only two people were watching the portal.
And the seal on the door has been torn off.
The previous seal was posted by Dali Temple. After Su Dawei and the others saw it last time, they resealed it with the Dali Temple seal.
Except for Dali Temple, idlers are not allowed to enter.
But now, the seal on the door is gone.
Cheng Daozhi hurried forward and said, "Who has uncovered the seal?"
"It is the temple minister of Zongzheng Temple, Li Pixuan."
Zhi Jinwu, who was guarding the gate, said: "The people from Zongzheng Temple are ordered by the temple minister to come and arrange the princess' funeral."
"What?!"
Cheng Daozhi was startled: "Princess... Where is the princess's remains?"
"I have been carried away by the people from Zongzheng Temple. I said that it would be smelly if I release it again. I must arrange a memorial service and be buried in peace."
"Absurd, Dali Temple is still investigating this case. The murderer has not been found yet, so how can we arrange the funeral?"
"This is what Zongzheng Temple means. They are royal relatives, how dare we stop us?"
Zhi Jinwu whispered.
Cheng Daozhi was so angry that he almost coughed up blood.
He turned around and looked at Su Dawei and said in almost despair: "Shaoqing, look..."
"Go to the sect and authenticity."
Su Dawei did not hesitate and immediately said: "Go to find someone from Zongzheng Temple."
Strictly speaking, it should be a corpse.
A struggle appeared on Cheng Daozhi's face: "But... Zongzheng Temple, Li Bixuan..."
Zongzheng Temple is equivalent to the residence of the clan people in later generations.
This yamen is full of members of the royal family, and the royal family is the leader, who is highly respected by virtue and is specialized in handling all matters within the royal family.
Including the funerals of the princes and princes.
"Let's talk about it when you go."
Su Dawei didn't hold it in his heart.
But after finding out the case, you can't let it go.
He had a military order for Li Zhi to be with him for a half month.
Before finding enough evidence to blame Li Chunfeng, I really couldn't relax for a moment.
It was noon, and the entire group of people who solved the case had not yet entered the water for most of the day.
Hungry inside.
Su Dawei had to take everyone to buy some shiba cakes in the Lujian shop to make do with everyone.
Eat while rushing.
Zongzheng Temple has now moved to the Daming Palace, and this matter must be alarmed by Li Zhi.
While looking for someone from Zongzheng Temple, I had to ask someone to pass on a message to the palace.
But who should I find?
While walking and thinking, he suddenly thought again.
Li Yifu’s intention to find the Wang family.
Does Li Yifu really need the power of the Wang family?
The Wang family no longer occupied the central power in the court, and they were all Qing officials, such as the counselors.
It's okay to make a sound, but nothing else can do.
What is the constitution for Li Yifu to find the Wang family to deal with him?
Perhaps, he knew that he had been to the Wang family before and was kicked out by Wang Shao and Wang Maoshu.
But he didn't know that he still had the relationship between Luo Binwang and Wang Bo.
Li Yifu probably judged the gentleman with the heart of a villain, thinking that the Wang family would never leak this matter.
But I didn't expect that the Wang family was not a little white rabbit. They could have their own way of survival since the Qin Dynasty and became a huge family.
Li Yi’s mansion was really smooth and was a little drifty.
If you want to enter the palace, Gao Dahu and others will not be able to enter, so you can only wait outside the door.
Su Dawei has a goldfish talisman, and Cheng Daozhi has a silverfish talisman, so he can go in without any obstacles.
He asked the eunuch who was guarding the gate and Jinwu Guard for a while, and asked another eunuch to lead the way. Su Dawei dragged Cheng Daozhi, who was crying and went straight to Zongzheng Temple.
Cheng Daozhi felt ten thousand unwilling to go to meet Li Pixuan from Zongzheng Temple.
This person is the elder of the Li clan.
The seniority is one generation higher than Li Zhi. That is the one whom Emperor Taizong would call him uncle when he saw him.
Su Dawei and Cheng Daozhi were afraid that they were not qualified to speak in front of others.
Isn’t this a shame for oneself?
Although he was unwilling to do so, Su Dawei grabbed him, but he could not refuse.
At this time, it was revealed that Su Dawei asked Li Zhi for the benefit of the official position of Dali Temple.
