On the Thousand Postures Reconstructed by the Scumbags.

The place where Du Lingchun hosted the banquet was in a garden on the outskirts of the city.Although it looked ordinary from the outside, when Gongsun Zhuoyu stepped out of the carriage and was led in by the servant girl, he realized that there was something strange about it.

Inside, the flying eaves, waterside pavilions, pavilions, terraces and pavilions are all half-hidden among the flowers and trees.The Chaoshou corridor, which is tens of meters long, is located beside the lotus pond, passes through rockery and flowing water, and finally leads directly to a pavilion in the middle of the lake.

The servant girl who led the way stopped at this point, bowed her knees to Gongsun Zhuoyu and said: "Forgive me, my lord, the company doesn't like others to serve you closely, I can only wait outside."

Gongsun Zhuoyu glanced at the veranda which was only a short distance away, at the end was a gazebo, surrounded by white curtains, a figure could be vaguely seen when it was blown by the wind.Nodded to express understanding: "No problem, I will go by myself."

He was so handsome that the servant girl would blush if she looked at him too much, she covered her lips and smiled back.

Gongsun Zhuoyu went to the Huxin Pavilion, and when he got close, he realized that Du Lingchun was reading a book, a little lost in thought.I thought it would be better not to disturb, so I stopped three steps away and waited quietly.

There is a low table in the middle of the pavilion, which is filled with all kinds of precious melons and fruits, which are not often eaten by ordinary people.The ground is covered with thick velvet blankets, which are worth a million dollars.Gongsun Zhuoyu looked at a plate of grapes, feeling a little greedy.

Because Du Lingchun is in the mansion, he dresses more casually.His dark hair fell loose on his shoulders.A red shirt with wide sleeves made her skin white as snow, and she was feminine to the bone.

Holding the scroll in his hand, he waited until he had finished reading the next poem, then put it aside, raised his eyes to look at Gongsun Zhuoyu, and said with a laugh: "Master Gongsun has the style of a gentleman, I have been waiting for a long time, please take a seat."

In fact, Gongsun Zhuoyu didn't stand for long, he knelt and sat down on the opposite side as he said: "Seeing that the company is absorbed in the book, the officials dare not disturb."

After finishing speaking, he glanced at the collection of poems on the table without a trace, and it happened to be a page of Li Bai's "A Journey with a Guest", and the sentence "Lanling's fine wine and tulips, and the amber light from the jade bowl" came into view.

Seeing him looking at the collection of poems, Du Lingchun raised his eyebrows, and suddenly swept his sleeves aside: "Our company doesn't like reading."

Gongsun Zhuoyu thought to himself that if he doesn't like to watch you, he still looks so enthusiastically, it's really moody, but he said: "It's right not to love, the company is a big man, so naturally there is no need to waste time on these trivial matters."

"Trivia?" Du Lingchun suddenly smiled, "You are the first scholar to say such a thing."

Just as Gongsun Zhuoyu said, most of the poor people are poor in food and clothing, and they can't afford to eat, so where can they have money to study.Du Lingchun didn't like those garrulous things. To him, books were as annoying as the sour and noble spirit of literati.

He lazily got up and walked towards a fishing rod fixed by the fence. He was not wearing boots, and a pair of white and thin feet could be vaguely seen in the crimson clothes as he walked.Du Lingchun took the fishing rod, flicked it casually, and suddenly said: "I thought Master Gongsun would not come to the banquet today."

Gongsun Zhuoyu thought why he didn't come, he had to come, he got up from his seat, and followed Du Lingchun with a serious face: "Why did the company say that?"

Du Lingchun looked at him sideways, and the curve of his lips seemed to be smiling: "Don't you all think that our company is a rootless eunuch, huh?"

It is always quite shameless to mix up with powerful officials and corrupt officials.Anyone who maintains his own reputation will avoid it.

Du Lingchun gave an example: "For example, that... Zhang Jiji Zhang Zhixian?"

Gongsun Zhuoyu's heart skipped a beat when he heard the words, Zhang Jiji's stinky mouth had already told him not to talk nonsense.This is good, the drunken slip of the tongue was directly heard by the Lord, isn't it just asking for trouble.

After all, Gongsun Zhuoyu was quite loyal when he was with friends, and said a little embarrassedly: "Master Zhang didn't mean it, but he made a slip of the tongue when he was drunk. Si Gong Haihan, don't worry about this kind of person."

Seeing the fish mark floating, Du Lingchun raised his fishing rod and took the line back, and there was a lively carp hanging on it: "Really, but others say that one speaks the truth after drinking."

Gongsun Zhuoyu nodded and said: "There are also people who talk nonsense after drinking."

Du Lingchun was just talking casually.He threw the fishing rod into the bucket, looked at Gongsun Zhuoyu with a smile, wiped his hands with a handkerchief, and returned to his seat: "Well, for your sake, our company won't bother with him."

If you change someone else, you will lose your skin if you don't die. After all, few people in high positions in this world can talk about it casually.

Gongsun Zhuoyu felt a little relieved when he heard the words, thinking that Du Lingchun was not as difficult to get along with as rumored, so he went back to his seat: "Is the company not fishing anymore?"

Du Lingchun said: "The group of carp were fattened in the pond. Without vigilance, a bunch of carp can be caught with a single hook. It's not interesting. Besides, today is for a banquet, don't let other things disturb you interest."

After speaking, he pulled the jade bell at his hand, and immediately there were maids and servants filing in, removing the snacks and fruits from the table, and setting out delicacies.Gongsun Zhuoyu quietly moved the plate of grapes to the side, and ate a few of them as if nothing had happened.The servant girl was also very discerning, so she didn't leave.

Du Lingchun noticed it and asked, "Do you like grapes?"

Gongsun Zhuoyu said: "I made the company laugh at me. I have nothing to worry about. Grapes are expensive and you can't often get them."

Du Lingchun felt that he was magnanimous, so he moved the grapes to his side: "Eat as much as you like, if you don't have enough, bring some back home. When you are full, come with me to the other garden of the prefect to see the excitement."

Gongsun Zhuoyu paused: "Huh?"

Du Lingchun just smiled meaningfully: "Our company is very curious, what tricks they can find out."

Thanks to Gongsun Zhuoyu's quick way of smearing oil on the soles of his feet yesterday, the task of investigating the case of the female corpse in Gujing fell on Zhang Jiji.He stayed up all night, interrogated all the maids and servants in Bieyuan, and finally had a one-night discussion with the magistrate, and managed to find out the "truth".

"Reporting to the lord, the officer checked last night. There was a maid named Danqiu in the other garden where the guests were entertained yesterday. She disappeared three days ago and her whereabouts are still unknown. The female corpse in the well may be Danqiu."

Du Lingchun sat at the head of the hall, and the corpse found last night was placed in the lower hall, covered with a white cloth, probably after cleaning, although the smell of corpses still lingers, it is not as direct as last night.Hearing Zhang Jiji's words, he didn't express his opinion: "Oh? How did you know that the corpse was Danqiu?"

Zhang Jiji had been prepared for a long time, and ordered the servant girl to present something, which was the wedding dress worn by the female corpse: "Although the corpse has been soaked in the well water for a long time, the clothes and jewelry are still in good condition. Several maidservants came to identify it, and they all recognized that the embroidery on the wedding dress was made by Dan Qiu, and the hairpin was also often worn by her."

It sounds reasonable.

Gongsun Zhuoyu thought Zhang Jiji was such a pervert that he even took off the clothes of the dead body.

Du Lingchun picked up the teacup, picked up the lid, and skimmed off the foam: "How did that man die? Why was he wearing a wedding dress when he died?"

Hearing this, Zhang Jiji looked at the magistrate without a trace, then quickly withdrew his gaze, bowed and replied: "Danqiu has a marriage contract with Lei Quan, the deputy housekeeper of Bieyuan, and they will get married next month. Before he died, he should be trying on the wedding dress , was later conspired and pushed into the well, that's why it happened."

After he finished speaking, he ordered someone to bring up a maid in pink, bound all over, with something stuffed in her mouth, struggling endlessly, her tears soaked her face.

Zhang Jiji explained eloquently: "This girl's name is Ling Shuang. According to people in the house, she has always admired the deputy housekeeper Lei Quan, but Lei Quan and Dan Qiu are in love with each other, and they never pretend to talk to her. So Ling Shuang was jealous of Dan Qiu, and secretly pushed her out."

"On the eve of Danqiu's last disappearance, some servants of the mansion saw them pushing and shoving. Presumably because of the accumulation of resentment, Ling Shuang was angry for a while, so he pushed Danqiu into the well."

Wonderful, really wonderful.Gongsun Zhuoyu took a sip of tea quietly beside him, thinking that it would be a pity that Zhang Jiji would not tell a story, and at the same time glanced at the corpse without any trace——

Because only half of the bones are rotten, the white cloth is covered on it, and the outline of the body can be vaguely seen.

Gongsun Zhuoyu paused slightly with his fingertips and frowned, as if he had discovered something, but he thought it was none of his business, so he suppressed it for the time being.

Du Lingchun had nothing to do anyway, when he heard this, he looked at the tied maid: "Has she pleaded guilty?"

The magistrate interrupted and said: "This lowly servant girl refuses to confess to death, but you don't have to worry about it. I think it only takes a few days of torture to extract a confession, and then I will confess."

As soon as he said this, Ling Shuang got the strength from nowhere, and rushed forward, spat out the cloth stuffed in her mouth, and cried out in a mournful voice: "My lord! This servant has never harmed Danqiu, Even though we had a few arguments with her that day, we definitely wouldn't kill anyone because of it, please enlighten me! Please enlighten me!"

With her hands tied behind her back, she knelt on the ground and kowtowed vigorously, making a bang bang, blood was seen within a few breaths.Her temples were disheveled, and she was really in a state of embarrassment. She cried like rain: "There is an old mother in the maidservant's house. She has poor legs and feet, so she can only rely on the slaveservant to support her. If I die, how will she live? I beg you to learn from me!"

The servant girl standing next to her couldn't bear it, and the magistrate said angrily: "Could it be that just because your old mother's legs and feet are inconvenient, can she be cleared of her guilt? Come, take this lowly servant girl away quickly!"

Immediately, a yamen servant forcibly dragged her down, Ling Shuang struggled and refused to leave, kowtowed, kowtowed, crying unspeakably: "My lord, my mother is really handicapped, she can't even walk, Please...please..."

There was a splash of blood on the bluestone tile floor, and the head knocked on it with a dull sound, and finally was forcibly dragged out a bloodstain.

Seeing this, Gongsun Zhuoyu looked away unnaturally, and remained silent. Who would have thought that the system would pop out again at some point, hugging his shoulder with its wings and crying: [Wuwuwuwu so pitiful, so pitiful , she is definitely not the murderer] Gongsun Zhuoyu thought that the magistrate made it clear that he was just looking for an excuse to calm the matter, who would care if it was a murderer or not, and pulled the system away with a little disgust: "You graduated from Notre Dame de Paris, every day Pity others, and I don't see you pity me."

The system wiped away tears: [I am a top student who graduated from the Interstellar Scumbag Transformation Academy. 】

Gongsun Zhuoyu: "..."

The system continued to wipe away tears: [As a parent official, if you don't clear up the grievances of the people, you will be a corrupt official]

The faint officials are punished with electric shocks.

Everyone saw Ling Shuang being forcibly dragged down, but at this moment, Gongsun Zhuoyu, who had been silent all this time, suddenly said: "Master Zhifu, I think this case is not that simple."

The prefect was anxious: "Gongsun Zhuoyu, you..."

Du Lingchun raised his hand to stop, turned his head to look at Gongsun Zhuoyu: "Master Gongsun, do you think there is any problem?"

There is a problem for sure, and the truth was found out in a hurry overnight, because everyone knows that there must be grievances.But all the people here are human beings, no one will rashly stand up for a lowly servant girl, and use her meager life to calm Du Lingchun's anger.

Gongsun Zhuoyu bit the bullet and said, "I just have a question."

Du Lingchun's attitude towards him has always been gentle: "But it doesn't matter."

Gongsun Zhuoyu glanced at the magistrate, and then at Zhang Jiji, the coward: "According to Mr. Zhang, Danqiu has only been missing for three days, but the body salvaged from the well is seriously corrupted, and the bones have already appeared. The time of death It will not be less than fifteen days."

Zhang Jiji thought for a moment, "Ji Zhong Sheng Zhi": "The well water is damp, and it is possible to rot quickly."

Gongsun Zhuoyu said: "No, even if the well water can affect the degree of decay of the corpse, it is impossible to rot to this point in just three days, and..."

He measured the height of the skeleton next to him from a distance: "This skeleton is most likely a man, not a woman."

As soon as this statement came out, there was an uproar.
