Chapter 229 Master, Please Don't Interfere with Women's Work
"What is "The Complete Guide to Autopsy"? She probably heard it from a play." Shangguan Ming complained to the Minister of Personnel, "It's impossible that the fairy boy told her."
The Minister of Personnel recalled that his wife had been acting mysterious these days, leaving early and returning late, bathing and burning incense at night, as if waiting for something to enter her dreams, so he didn't dare to cater to Shangguan Ming.
"Prime Minister, who knows?"
"Since the fairy boy can enter our dreams and make us dream of the same warning. Who knows, he may have entered our wife's dream as well."
Shangguan Ming's long beard twitched. Of course he knew there was such a possibility.
But now he felt that it would never happen. "It is possible that the fairy boy entered her dream, but the fairy boy told my wife the fairy book and not me?"
"Cheng Liao, how can it be possible?"
"Doesn't the fairy boy know that my wife only likes to talk about family matters after dinner? If you ask her what happened in which family, she knows everything. But if you ask her to distinguish right from wrong, she knows nothing and can't even recognize a few words."
Yuan Mu also believes in "women without talent are virtuous".
So Shangguan Ming doesn't look down on his wife, but she really hasn't read much.
The fairy boy gave her the fairy book, can she understand it?
The fairy boy knows everything about the world, doesn't it count that his wife is illiterate?
Shangguan Ming waved his hand, "Forget it, never mind. It's probably because I belittled her with my words, and she got angry and deliberately contradicted me and got angry with me."
"It's more important to do business. I wrote a secret letter last night."
The cause of death of several queens is being investigated secretly.
But not long after, Shangguan Ming found that wherever the ministers in their dream investigated, someone else had already investigated it.
"Prime Minister, your wife also came to ask about it."
"I just told the Minister of the Ministry of Revenue about this the day before, your wife."
"Huh? The wife of the censor came to me and said something similar a few days ago."
Several men were stunned.
...
The gossip-eating group gathered by Mrs. Shangguan gradually approached the truth.
From the original curiosity and fresh mentality, it slowly turned into fear, anger and solemnity.
Especially today, Mrs. Shangguan and Mrs. Yushi, with a group of sisters, came to the farmland on the outskirts of the city under the pretext of burning incense, and their expressions became solemn.
"Do you really want to dig her up?" Mrs. Yushi was a little nervous, looking at Mrs. Shangguan, hesitant in her eyes.
Mrs. Shangguan nodded, "Well, it's a serious matter, so we have to do it."
"What if it really involves the emperor..." Someone said nervously, and stopped the voice in time.
Madam Shangguan waved her hands, looking calm, "I just bought this place and asked a Feng Shui master to look at the land. The master advised me to move the grave here, so I came to dig the grave recently."
"What does it have to do with the palace?"
Madam Shangguan looked determined, which made the women around her feel relieved.
Soon someone agreed, "Yes, even if this person is the nanny beside the former queen, her family also agreed to move the location. The hexagram is calculated. This move will not only benefit your Shangguan family, but also her descendants."
Madam Shangguan nodded, "Yes, it will benefit all directions, so I came to do this."
As they discussed, Taoist priests soon performed rituals and chanted scriptures, and then men came to dig the soil and carry the coffin.
Madam Shangguan clenched her hands nervously.
With the fairy child guiding her in her dream, she was not afraid.
As the fairy child said, she should be the spokesperson of the fairy child in the world and give justice to these victims!
Let the evildoers be punished!
If not, these dead and buried people will never rest in peace.
Mrs. Shangguan thought about it and had the courage.
Even though the coffin had a rotten smell, she suppressed her panic and fear.
‘After stringing the skeleton together with hemp rope, put it in a hot earth pit and fumigate it with wine and vinegar. After two to four hours, take out the skeleton and cover it with a red oil umbrella to examine it in the sun. ’
‘If there are places where the bones are hit, a light red blood shadow will appear. ’
‘If the bones are broken, there will be traces of blood shadows at the joints of the two ends of the break...’
Mrs. Shangguan muttered to herself and quickly told the nanny's family what to do.
Soon, not only Mrs. Shangguan was stunned, but even the family of the deceased was speechless.
The bones really showed a light red color, especially a circle of red marks on the neck, and the cervical vertebra was broken!
In addition, there were several obvious irregular blood shadows on the limbs.
"My mother was really murdered?!" The son of the nanny was so angry that his eyes were about to burst, and he was terrified. "After the death of the previous queen, my mother was rewarded with a carriage by the Yuan King and came out of the palace..."
The wife of the censor and a group of female relatives were awakened from their shock, but they still had reason.
"If the carriage overturned into the river and drowned, there shouldn't be so many fractures on her body..."
But now the skeleton has obvious bloodstains behind the neck, and even the limbs have traces of injuries.
Mrs. Shangguan took a deep breath, "Yes, if she died of drowning, it's such a coincidence that the neck bone was broken, and there shouldn't be bloodstains on all four limbs at the same time."
"It seems...she struggled before she died, but was restrained by a strong person, resulting in scars on her limbs."
The son of the nanny was pale, "At that time, my mother's carriage fell into the river, and it took two days to fish it out. She was soaked and unrecognizable."
Relatives couldn't bear to look closely, so the fracture of the neck was ignored.
"Is it possible that the damage occurred when she was fished out of the river?" The Censor's wife's logic was surprisingly clear.
Madam Shangguan took a deep breath and shook her head. The fairy book given by the fairy boy had already told her.
"This is a scar before death."
"Take this kind of blood-stained bone to a sunny place to look at it. If the color is ruddy, it can be confirmed that it was beaten before death. If there is no blood on the bone, even if it is damaged or broken, it is a scar caused after death."
"The former queen's nanny was sent to the carriage. Before leaving the palace, she may have died." Madam Shangguan looked at everyone.
All the female relatives were panicked.
This... doesn't it mean that the former queen did die strangely!
What should we do?
Should we open the queen's coffin for an autopsy?
Prince Yuan must kill them!
Impossible!
"This matter is no longer something we can solve by ourselves." Madam Yushi said, "I will go back now and tell my husband!"
Madam Shangguan nodded and said, "That's right, only by gathering the power of all officials and the voices of the people, and asking the emperor for consent, can we verify the cause of death of the former queen!"
Even if the other party is a king, so what?
Shouldn't he investigate whether his late wife was murdered?
"The former queen may have been murdered by the imperial concubine, the queen mother, or the maids and eunuchs around her."
If Prince Yuan does not agree to an autopsy, it means he is guilty!
Madam Shangguan gritted her teeth and asked someone to pack up the bones and return to the city.
But before getting on the carriage, she saw the master Shangguan Ming and several other ministers who came hurriedly.
"What are you doing? What are you doing?" Shangguan Ming was so scared when he saw the bones being carried out.
"Is this something you should be in charge of?"
Madam Shangguan narrowed her eyes and looked at him, "If I don't care, who will!"
Who let the fairy boy enter her dream!
She was the one chosen by the fairy boy!
The fairy boy thought she was capable and intelligent, and he praised her and rewarded her with the fairy book!
Madam Shangguan felt that she had never been so proud in front of her husband Shangguan Ming.
"Master, please stop making trouble and stop interfering with our women's work."
"???"
"We have already found out the truth about the death of the former queen's nanny, and are about to send the remains to the Ministry of Justice for the review of the Minister of Justice."
"???!"
"By the way, Master, you said we are not good enough, what did you find out?"
"......!"
