After crossing over, I am popular with both men and women

"Stop it. What was this woman doing in the backyard of Wanhua Tower?" Su Qinchao raised his hand to stop the two people who were arguing with each other, his face slightly gloomy.

"She seemed to be talking to the madam about something. I was upstairs at the time and didn't hear clearly what they were talking about." Seeing Su Qinchao's face darken, Yuan Ji honestly told him what he saw at that time.

"Are you sure the person she was talking to was the madam of Wanhua Tower?"

"Sure! Although there are many women in Wanhua Tower, the madam is the only one who is so fat." So Yuan Ji was very sure that the person he saw was the madam.

"Wanhua Tower, brothel owner, Tangut women, Taoist temple..." Su Qinchao slowly repeated these names, as if something was about to come out of his mind, but he couldn't grasp it for a moment.

"You two, find a way to transport the female corpse back to the county government office and find a coroner to perform an autopsy. The rest of you follow me up."

If you can't think of it, just forget about it. Su Qinchao simply instructed two people to arrange the female corpse and prepared to continue taking people to the Taoist temple to investigate the case.

"Yes!"

...

The architectural style of the fourth Taoist temple is somewhat different from the others. Su Qinchao stood at the entrance of the temple and carefully looked at this Taoist temple that looked exceptionally magnificent.

The ground was paved with white jade, the courtyard walls were vermilion, and even the tiles on the roof were green glazed tiles. The county mansion bestowed by the emperor on Li Yi was not as luxurious as this one.

A Taoist temple would definitely not look like it does now, unless the master of the temple is of great importance or has the support of powerful people behind it.

Just like the three we checked earlier, they are at most simple and solemn, and use the most common building materials.

"General, how come you are walking so fast!" The soldiers who finally caught up with him all held their knees and gasped for breath.

"What do you think is different about this Taoist temple?" Su Qinchao gestured for them to take a closer look at the Taoist temple in front of them.

"Ah, it's more gorgeous than usual!" Yuan Ji spoke first.

"You have been in the Jinwu Guard for so long, have you heard of any dignitaries who often have contact with the Taoist temple?"

"There are many dignitaries who have dealings with the Taoist temple!"

"Yes, I heard from my father that when the late emperor was alive, he liked to invite Yun Miaozi from Qingyun Temple in Xishan to the palace to preach, so many dignitaries of the older generation also started to have dealings with these Taoist temples." The palace soldier who was familiar with Su Qinchao also said.

"Yes, especially Prince Xiang. He will recuperate in the Taoist temple for two months in June and July every year. However, it is not this Taoist temple, but the second one to the east." Another palace soldier also interjected.

"So is Father-in-law Su!"

"..." Listening to the people below talking at once, Su Qinchao sighed. There were so many of them. He had hoped to find some clues among them.

"Okay, everyone has calmed down, Yuan Ji, go knock on the door!" Su Qin looked at the Taoist temple with the door closed and pointed at Yuan Ji to knock on the door.

"Yes!" Yuan Ji took the order and immediately stepped forward and knocked on the door of the temple.

"Who is it?" After knocking three times, a boy about ten years old poked his head out from the slightly opened door.

"Jinwu Guards are investigating a case, open the door!" Yuan Ji directly revealed his identity and planned to push the door open and go in.

"Wait, let me go ask the abbot first!" Seeing this, the little boy shrank his head inside and planned to close the door.

"Huh?" Yuan Ji quickly reached out to stop him. As a Jinwu Guard, he had never met anyone who dared to stop them.
