Dress to be a celebrity

Xu Yu, later renamed Xu Youzhen, was the main force behind Jingtai and Zhengtong years who supported the restoration of Yingzong and framed Yu Qian. He was also Zhu Zhishan's grandfather.

This was the first historical celebrity that Song Shi saw with his own eyes. Although he was not a good person, he was quite excited.

After all, because Zheng Taizu changed the course of history and turned the Yuan and Ming dynasties into a butterfly, the current state of affairs is also quite different from what was recorded in history. At that time, I asked someone to inquire about the Sanyang cabinet that was supposed to be in charge of internal affairs in the Ren and Xuan dynasties, but found that Yang Shiqi had been a butterfly, and Yang Pu had also retired as a scholar in the Imperial Academy. It is also far away from entering the cabinet.

As for the young Xu Xuan in front of him, there will be no Ming Yingzong waiting for him to save in the future, and naturally he will not have the chance to become the chief assistant with his meritorious deeds, nor will he have the chance to harm others.This change is a good thing for others, and it is also a good thing for himself-because he was not capable of being the chief assistant, and he was kicked out of power by his fellow gangsters within a few years after killing Yu Qian, and he spent the rest of his life in exile. It's living at home, it's better to be an ordinary person like now.

Song Shi sighed with emotion, and waved his hand to stop him from going to arrest the scholar's yamen servant. He was about to go forward to greet him, but he saw that Xu Yu had some kind of illness, and he fell back straight.

What is wrong with this?

It is impossible for a person who lived until the restoration of Yingzong in history to have chronic diseases at a young age. He must have ridden all the way to find them, and he was tired and fainted from running too fast.

It doesn't matter, he will give first aid!

Song Shidang stepped forward to look at Xu Yan, and saw that his forehead and neck were covered with sweat, his cheeks were flushed with heat, but the edges of his lips were a little yellow, and his lips were blue. It could be concluded that it was caused by high fever and dehydration. of acute shock.

He has seen many first aid techniques on TV and online, and he is proficient in theory, but he has nowhere to use them before. Now that he finally has someone to practice in front of him, he has to turn on the magnifying glass and give him a round of cardiopulmonary resuscitation!He turned around and ordered someone to get the water bag, and when he woke up to fill it, he pressed Xu Caizi's Su-like silk clothes with both hands, pressed a few times, and bowed his head to breathe.

By the way, before breathing out, he had to open his mouth and take out what was blocked inside.

He went to pull Xu Cheng's mouth first, only to find that the color was wrong when he put his hand on it-just now during the autopsy, his hands were covered with minced meat and blood clots, and he forgot to take off his gloves!

Fortunately, Xu Yu hadn't shown any signs of waking up. He got up quickly, untied the rope tied to the gloves, took off the sleeves, and turned the sleeves inside out to help Xu Mingren wipe his mouth.However, after wiping, he still couldn't speak, and he couldn't put his hand on his chest covered in blood and debris...

Cough, let's change his clothes first.

Song Shi reached out to untie Xu Yu's belt, but Senior Brother Huan stopped him from behind and said, "Don't worry, what if he has something important in his clothes? He must be shocked to see us untie his clothes. I think he just rode in a hurry and held his breath, so he doesn't need to press his heart, just prick it with a bamboo stick."

He asked someone to take a dry towel to wipe the minced meat off Xu Yu's clothes, took a Hsinchu stick that was intended to pick up the remaining dirt from the corpse's mouth and nose, and stabbed it down heavily in his flesh.

It didn't take long for Xu Zhen to wake up screaming "uh-uh", and reached out to massage the crimson-colored person.As soon as he opened his eyes, he saw a circle of people around him looking down at him. The closest ones to him were Huan Tongpan and Song Sheren he was looking for.

Both looked at him with concern and asked how he was feeling.

It feels... a little pain in the human body, and the surrounding smell is a bit loud.

Xu Yu sat up and touched the crowd, and was nauseated by the strong smell around him. He suddenly remembered Song Shi's terrifying hands, subconsciously shrank back, and glanced at his cuffs——Song Shi Shi Zheng stretched out his hands to support him, a pair of slender and white hands were shining in the air, neither the blood and flesh stains he saw just now, nor were they shiny and swollen.

He subconsciously asked: "Could it be that I was wrong just now? Brother Song's hand..."

Song Shi looked at the faint blood stains on his chest and his chest, and smiled awkwardly: "Just now, Song was doing an autopsy on Mr. Huan, and the gut gloves he was wearing were stained with blood and flesh, and they were not very clean. After mentioning this matter, Brother Xu just passed out suddenly, thinking that he was out of water, he should drink some water before talking."

Then some servants came to help Xu Yu and brought him a water bag.The two Youtong who came with him were squeezed to the back instead, looking at him eagerly, hoping that he would think of them quickly and let them come forward to serve.

It's a pity that Caizi Xu came here with a big plan, and he just said, "I am entrusted by friends from the Suzhou Mansion, and I am here to invite Brother Song to Suzhou to participate in a lecture conference organized by famous people in the Mansion", and he didn't care about his own smell. I don't even remember that there are people behind me.

While talking, he reached into his bosom to touch the post, but felt that the skirt was a little wet and sticky.He couldn't help but glanced down, and saw an irregular dark red mark that looked like a handprint on the chest of the lake silk gown on his body.

Song Shi's two swollen and bloody hands reappeared in front of his eyes again, and holding the strong smell from his nose, he retched twice, almost wanting to spit it out.

Song Shi hurriedly ordered: "Bring the bucket! Don't let Mr. Xu spit on the ground!"

A few guards quickly moved the buckets, turned to him, and said nervously: "My lord, you must be sure, this land is not far from the place where the corpses were dumped, maybe what you can find if you search carefully in the ground. Footprints, bloodstains, and the like."

Xu Yu made him say that he came here to slow down and hinder others from performing official duties. He was so angry that he didn't want to vomit. He untied his belt, threw his clothes into the bucket, and asked the two molesters who came with him to fetch him new ones. Change clothes.

Fortunately, Huan Tongpan is a good official who is considerate of talents, so he was taken to the back of Tongpan's yamen to take a bath and change clothes, and he was sent to the deceased's wife Ning's house.

The murder weapon, bloodstains, footprints, horseshoe prints, car tracks, rags, broken vegetation, and clods of different colors turned up on the ground... The two of them led the guards to search the evidence carefully, without mentioning that Xu Talented man didn't say half a word, but he was talking about the situation that appeared on the corpse just now.

Song Shi had been in charge of yamen affairs since his father was working in Guangxi, and the Huan family said that he was in charge of litigation, which was not false.There is a special job in the county for criminal names, which is autopsy-in actual county affairs, it is called autopsy, and then filling in the cadaver form, which must be attached to the file when the case is closed. Without these, the case will be in the hands of the superior. Not bad.

Although the county magistrate usually asks Wu to do the autopsy, and the chief officer will do the autopsy, just take the completed form and look at it yourself, but here in Song Dynasty, you have to do it yourself, and you dare not listen to the following--

After all, yamen clerks have no integrity, as long as the money is in place, those clerks dare to conceal the real cause of death, and even create wounds that meet the needs of closing the case.In this era, there are no cameras to preserve evidence, and what is written on the autopsy form is what it is. After a few years, the bones will rot, and there will be no evidence for a bloody case.

The corpse, the murder weapon, the testimony... all have to be complete to solve the case.

In Song Shi's previous life, he was a person who watched one "The Criminal of the Great Song Dynasty", two "Forensic Doctor Song Ci", and three "Shaobao". Autopsy experience is very mellow.Since Huan Ling took office, he mostly dealt with documents sent by various governments. It was the first time to personally investigate the case, and it was also the first time to see a corpse. In fact, he was very uncomfortable.It's just that he was forbearing by nature, and he had a sweetheart in front of him, so he didn't want to show fear, so he tried not to spit it out, and forced himself to follow the corpse.

Fortunately, Song Shi prepared protective equipment such as bamboo charcoal masks, sheep gut gloves, and lambskin sleeves in advance, and put them on for him, which gave him a sense of security and allowed him to survive the first shock without being caught on the spot. Spit it out.

It was not until the corpse was put into the coffin that he could put the scene behind him and concentrate on listening to his junior brother's analysis of the case.

"The weather in Fujian is hot and humid, and the corpse decomposes quickly. Based on the spots on the corpse and the turbidity of the cornea, the corpse should have died within two days. There has not been much rain in the capital of Tingzhou in the past two days. The corpse was thrown at the foot of a barren mountain. Few people pass by, so it is easy to leave evidence. And the place where clues are most likely to be left is by the well where they threw their bodies..."

The corpse had five or six incisions, the wounds were smooth, some stab wounds were as deep as a foot, but narrow in width, from the incisions it looked like a boning knife.There was a knife wound in the throat, which was cut obliquely towards the collarbone. The knife edge was rolled up, and the force was heavy at first and then light.If the corpse was thrown out right after the murder, the ground beside the well must have blood splashes, footprints stepped on the blood stains, or abnormal traces of digging and burying to cover the blood stains.

"But there is nothing on the ground beside the well, so the corpse was thrown here after death?"

Exactly.Therefore, it is necessary to carefully check whether there are traces of footprints and ruts around.

"During the autopsy just now, the back, two buttocks, two arms, and two legs were examined. Didn't they also find corpse spots? Corpse spots are formed when the blood in the body falls to the bottom when a person dies. When a person is thrown into a well, the corpse spots should be concentrated on the upper body near the bottom of the well, but now the corpse spots look like a corpse that has been parked on flat ground for at least a day."

Huan Ling recalled the purple blood on the back of the corpse, several wounds covered with yellow fat and red flesh, and the head and face blurred by the ooze at the bottom of the well... He hurriedly looked at Song Shi, relying on his The profile washes away the horrific sight from memory.

He was still a few years older than Song Shi, and he couldn't help looking at him with disgust. Song Shi was able to follow his assistant to examine the corpse carefully, and deduce the time, place, and murder of the person based on the spots on the corpse and other things. What is his murder weapon...

If he didn't only want to uphold justice for the people, why should he, a county magistrate, do these painful, tiring, useless and cheap jobs?And after his family secretly investigated what Song Shi did from Guangxi, they went back and said that it was called "holding the lawsuit"-how black and white must be upside down to make such a statement?

There was a dark fire in his chest, he hated his family's misbehavior, and felt sorry for Song Shi who knew these things at a young age.He would rather Song Shi still be the same as when he was at his house, just reading every day, playing with the children casually, and spending all his time on the things he loves to do.

For example, making pesticides, holding conferences, compiling music and so on.

When doing these things, his eyes always had a bright and moving brilliance, which shows that he really likes these things.

Then he should be in charge of things like autopsy and case investigation. Song Shi only needs to do what he really likes. Why should he be so busy for him every day?

By the way, speaking of the conference, there is also a talented Suzhou scholar who came to invite Song Shi to attend the seminar in the mansion.Suzhou is the richest and most romantic place in the world, and nothing will happen if you are accompanied by these talented people. Why don't you ask him to go to Suzhou for a visit?

With such a plan in mind, Huan Ling and Song Shi searched around the well platform and took a few footprints that were deeply imprinted in the ground.It was getting late, and the things on the ground were gradually becoming invisible, and the rest had to be investigated, so Huan Ling decided to ask someone to stay and guard the scene, and Song Shi went back to the yamen with him.

Huan Ling arranged for someone to take a bath and change clothes for them, and after having some snacks, he invited the talented Suzhou scholar to the hall.

When Xu Yu was looking for Song in the past few days, he had to look for a broken leg. After finding someone, he was shocked and made a fool of himself. I am here to invite Mr. Song to Suzhou to attend the seminar, and here is the invitation, Mr. Song, please do not refuse."

The pedophile he brought took the post and forwarded it to the past.

Song Shi opened it and took a look. The post was also folded, with his name and the words "Suzhou Lecture Society" printed in flamboyant handwriting on the front, and an article was printed on the inside page describing the whole process of running the Lecture Society, just a few lines The words show the strong self-confidence of Suzhou students in lecturing.

The lecture will be held next month, on the ninth day of September, a traditional holiday for climbing high and admiring chrysanthemums. It will be held in a private garden built by Fushang in Zhenjiang. We will invite poets, talents, masters of essays, and masters of Neo-Confucianism from all over Suzhou to participate, as well as stunning famous courtesans. accompany.

Watching him read his article, Xu Yu finally regained the confidence that Suzhou talents should have, and said with a smile: "This lecture will invite everyone from Jiangnan Confucianism to give lectures, and the participants are all talented scholars from all over the world. I’ve heard that Mr. Song’s essays are magnificent and he is proficient in Neo Confucianism, so he must be a person with real talents and practical learning, so you wouldn’t refuse this invitation, would you?”

Although Song Shi is a student, he should go to the county school on weekdays, but seeing that he can serve as a teacher for Tong San in the mansion, I know that he is not the kind of person who studies in peace, and it is not considered to ask for a leave of absence to go to Suzhou. What.

He had already made up his mind that Song Shi would go, and even thought about how they would use their own knowledge, poetry and prose to embarrass this foreign scholar after Song Shi arrived in Suzhou.Thinking of the joy, even the smell of rotting corpses that lingered in his nose seemed to fade away, his face was radiant again, and he said to the two with a smile: "The student knows that Mr. Tong San cannot leave Fucheng lightly, so I only invite Mr. Song to go. Wait for Mr. Song When returning home, students must also copy two handouts, one for Mr. Song, and one for the adults when they return.”

At that time, let Huan Tong judge see if the quotations selected by their Suzhou talents are better than the Song's engraved edition with only one thin and clear stroke!

But he waited complacently for a long time, only to receive a faint refusal.Song Shi held up the exquisite scarlet gold invitation card, and shook his head with a smile: "Now there is a big robbery case in the mansion, I have to deal with the affairs of the hall with the general judge, and I have no time to get out; besides, next year will be Qiu Wei, and I have little knowledge." , I still have to study with my brother, so I really don’t have time to go to Suzhou to attend lectures.”

Xu Yu's pride turned into frustration, and he asked in disbelief: "Why? There are so many famous people in this conference, isn't it better than you studying behind closed doors at home?"

No comparison.

He has a brother who just passed the top ten exams in the country last year. Can this group of people find a teacher as good as Brother Huan Xiao?

Looking at all the invitations copied from him, he knows that most of the lectures are copied from him, and from the attitude of this Xu, who will not be the chief assistant in the future, it is clear that this group of people did not invite him to come and guide the local government. The work of the lecture conference is to pull him over to have a grand banquet, and to crush him with the academic level of Suzhou, right?

He is not Zhuge Liang, these Confucian scholars want to verbalize him, and he doesn't want to give them this face!
