Xuan Ming told the coachman to hurry up and drive the carriage. He held Yun Yige and suppressed the feeling in his body.

Arriving at the palace soon, Xuan Ming took her out of the carriage and walked quickly to the bedroom.

Yun Yige rested her head on his shoulder, not daring to raise her head to look into his lustful eyes. When she arrived at the bedroom, Xuan Ming kicked open the door, and the discerning maids and guards immediately stepped forward to open the doors and windows. Close it.

Before Yun Yige could react, all her clothes had been taken off, leaving only a red and pink bellyband.Her shoulders were as white and tender as snow, the outline of her collarbone was clear and distinct, and her skin was smooth and soft to the touch. Xuan Ming's breath was stagnant: "I don't want you to be pregnant with a child."

If she was pregnant with a child, he would not be able to touch her for four or five months. How could he bear it with such a beautiful wife in his arms?

"What nonsense are you talking about again?"

She lay completely on top of him, and could clearly feel his strong chest and broad arms, and her hands were weakly supporting his chest.

"The doors and windows are closed, are you relieved now?" Xuan Ming couldn't wait to kiss her and press her under him.

Yun Yige's hands hooked around Xuan Ming's neck, closed her eyes, and wrapped around his strong waist.

……

In the morning of the next day, Xuanzheng issued an order to dismiss the chief officer of the Qintian Prison and make Yun Jingzhu the deputy supervisor.

Originally, Qintian Supervisor Zheng could resign on his own, which would make him look better, but Supervisor Zhengxu was old and was stimulated. He fainted after returning yesterday and has not woken up yet. .

Yun Yige and Xuan Ming were previously worried that the prison would be detrimental to Yun Jingzhu, but as he was lying on the hospital bed with his eyes closed, there was no need to worry about him secretly playing tricks in the near future.

After the morning court meeting, Guan Di returned to the Wude Department and Yun Jingsong returned to the Criminal Department. As soon as the two of them entered the main hall and took off their official hats, a subordinate came to report that a female corpse was found in Tongtian River.

Tongtian River is just outside the city, and it is also the only way to come to the capital from Yuze. If the female body is found, it is either from the capital or someone coming to the capital from Yuze.

"Send someone immediately to check if there are any missing people in Yuze and Beijing?" Guan Di ordered.

"Have you asked a widower to do an autopsy?"

Guan Di asked. After drinking the tea in the cup, he put down the tea cup and rushed towards Tongtian River without stopping.

"The autopsy has been done, and the body was put in for analysis in the past two days."

From the Criminal Department, Yun Jingsong also sent people to rush over.

When several people arrived, Wu Zuo had already inspected the body and was packing up the utensils.

"There were no signs of struggle, no wounds on the body, no poison, and a small amount of drugs in the body. He was drugged by an acquaintance and pushed into the river and drowned."

A sack was also fished out from the bottom of the river. It must have been that large rocks were placed in the sack to sink the person.But somehow, the woman's body actually floated up from the sack.

Wu Zuo looked at the woman and said with regret: "It's a pity that she was thrown into the river at such a young age. She was wearing a wedding dress. It seemed that she was sacrificed to the river demon."

"Why sacrifice to the river demon instead of the bride to be married?" Yun Jingsong asked.

"If a bride is getting married, she will wear an all-red wedding dress, and if possible, it will be embroidered with golden thread. However, this woman's wedding dress, the cuffs and skirt are all made of white thread..."

When a few people took a closer look, it was really scary.

Wu Zuo has been doing autopsies everywhere all year round. He has listened a lot and seen a lot. He also knows a lot about the customs of various places. He held up an extremely rare pearl held by tweezers and said: "Please take a look, sir. From her mouth And found this.”

"This person's thoughts are extremely vicious. When I was a child, I heard my great-grandfather say that if a dead person has pearls in his mouth, it means that he is willing to give up the reincarnation. This means that he will not be reincarnated in the next life, will not be able to reincarnate, and will be trapped by the river monster forever. .”

Guan Di and Yun Jingsong nodded, frowning more and more: "But, why was such a young woman sacrificed to the river demon?"

As soon as he finished speaking, thinking of what happened recently, several people speculated whether it might be related to praying for rain.

"Really people from Qintian Prison would do this?!" Yun Jingsong couldn't believe it.

"Send someone to the former prisoner's house to identify the body!" Guan Di ordered someone to deliver the message quickly.

Half an hour later, the eldest lady from the main palace of Qintian Prison came with someone. He opened the white cloth covering the body. The moment the eldest lady saw the face of the corpse, she covered her chest and wailed in grief. Standing up: "Ke'er, how did you become like this?! How could this happen, my daughter, my daughter!"

"Quick, quick, please call the doctor and doctor to come and save my daughter!"

The eldest lady collapsed and knelt on the ground. She was just a daughter, and now she died tragically. Wouldn't it cost her life.

The surface of the Tongtian River was unusually calm, and hearing the eldest lady’s cries was heartbreaking.

"Madam, my condolences."

Guan Di and Yun Jingsong both wanted to ask her if she knew who was responsible for this. It was obvious that she was in grief, so they had to wait until her mood stabilized before talking.

"Take people back first."

Two days later, several people figured out the whole story. It was Jian Zheng who fainted his daughter and gave it to the river demon in order to pray for rain. When the eldest lady found out about this, she didn't sleep all night. The next day, she took away all the money from the house. , go to the temple on the mountain, live in the temple day and night, chant sutras and bully my daughter, and save the souls of the dead.

This matter soon spread to the public, and there was a lot of discussion in teahouses and tea shops.

"It's so cruel. For the sake of official position and power, he would even risk his own daughter's life."

"This man doesn't deserve to be a father at all!"

……

In the Changding Hall, Xuan Yan angrily smashed a pot of orchids on the ground and roared: "A bunch of useless things!"

Mu Feng glanced at the orchid on the ground distressedly. This potted flower was Jiangning's famous species and was hard to find. He ordered people to clean up the debris and soil on the ground. He walked to Xuan Yan and whispered: "Your Majesty, the supervisor is here." Over there, please rest assured, Your Majesty, he is lying unconscious on the bed now and will not say even a single word."

After Jian Zheng lost the game, he originally wanted to kill him, but that would be too obvious. It would be easier to believe that he was so furious that he couldn't accept the sudden change and fell unconscious. Arousing suspicion.

"As for the eldest lady, although she recognized the body and there was talk about it in the streets and alleys, my subordinates sent people to investigate and did not connect the matter with the prince."

"What's more, Jian Zheng will definitely not tell anyone about the prince teaching him to pray for rain before, so the prince can rest assured."

Xuan Yan's expression softened slightly, but Qin Tian Jian now had no one available, which was also troublesome.
