Bao Zheng was happy when he heard this, but Kou Zhunze immediately stood up and said with a serious expression: "Go! Go and take a look!

Secondly, I was led by a servant to a corner of the yard. This was an abandoned warehouse and was temporarily used as a mortar room.

When I opened the door and went in, the room was very dark, and there were black felt cloth hanging on the surrounding walls to block the sun.

Yang Daqi's body was placed on the table, with some equipment placed around him, and a tray covered with cloth on a table next to it.

After the coroner gave the ceremony, he opened the cloth and pointed at the body to explain to Bao Zheng and Kou Zhun.

Yang Daqi lay there calmly, or his face was pale, otherwise he would be like he was sleeping.

Coroner pointed to Yang Daqi and explained: "The deceased's body was intact, no trauma, and his expression was calm, not like he died suddenly of sudden illness. At first I suspected that he was poisoned, but no discovery was found. Finally, I checked here..." (

Speaking of this, the coroner pointed his finger at Yang Daqi's head. When he saw the two of them looking over, he stretched out his hands and carefully opened Yang Daqi's loose hair, revealing a thread of scalp. There was a black spot on his scalp, which was the tail of the needle, slightly thinner than the iron nail and thicker than the embroidery needle.

Yu Zuo said: "There are three needles like this on the head of the deceased, arranged in a shape of a font."

While talking, Yu Zuo opened his hair, showed them the other two places, and slowly pulled out one with tweezers.

Bao Zheng looked at the tail of the needle and said to himself with a cold expression: "Did this needle be nailed so deeply? Was it nailed in with a hammer or something?"

The coroner said: "There are three possibilities like this."

Bao Zheng and Kou Zhun looked at him and waited for him to continue talking.

The coroner didn't keep it a secret and immediately said, "From my experience, either, Lord Yang was first controlled by someone or was fascinated by the acupoints, and then smashed the needle into it. Or, he used a mechanism to launch it. The last possibility is that a martial arts master shot out the steel needle with hidden weapons."

Bao Zheng frowned and thought for a while, and asked, "Which type do you think is the biggest?"

The coroner thought for a while and said, "The first possibility can be basically ruled out, because no signs of laxatives or poisoning were found. Even if the acupoints were controlled, Lord Yang should feel pain and would not be so calm. Moreover, if it was smashed in, there should be cracks on Lord Yang's skull."

Seeing that the two of them looked at themselves and didn't speak, the coroner said again: "The third possibility is not very big. First, this kind of martial arts master is rare. Moreover, if someone sneaks into the vital point with a hidden weapon, a needle will be fatal."

"What do you mean is to suspect that he died in the mechanism?" Bao Zheng asked.

The coroner nodded: "At least, judging from the current situation, that's the case."

Bao Zheng looked at Kou Zhun, but Kou Zhun looked at Yang Daqi's calm face and did not speak. He just thought to himself that it was him who killed him!

Bao Zheng sent Kou Zhun outside the Yang Mansion. Kou Zhun reminded Bao Zheng: "Continue to check and tell me if you have any clues in time. If you encounter a difficult place, you can also find me."

Bao Zheng nodded and bowed: "Don't worry, please don't worry, the subordinates will find out the truth."

Kou Zhun patted Bao Zheng with approval, then turned around and left.

Kou Zhun turned around and his face turned gloomy, thinking to himself: "This case depends on Kaifeng Prefecture and Dali Temple, I'm afraid I can't find out..."

Bao Zheng watched Kou Zhun go away, turned around and continued to return to Yang Daqi's mansion to investigate.

...

Beidoushi.

In the tea room, Kou Zhun and Dongming sat opposite each other, Dongming's face was calm, while Kou Zhunzhe had a serious expression.

Dongming poured tea for Kou Zhun with a relaxed expression, and asked curiously: "Why is Kou Gong free to come to Beidoushi today?"

Kou Zhun said seriously: "You won't go to the Three Treasures Hall if you have nothing to do!"

Dongming raised his eyebrows: "Oh? What's the difficulty for Mr. Kou?"

Kou Zhun: "Last night, Yang Daqi, the judge of Duzhi, died in his study."

Dongming's hand pouring tea stopped and asked in confusion: "Self-killing? Stop killing? Such cases should be the responsibility of Dali Temple and Kaifeng Prefecture. Why did Gong Kou come to our Beidou Division?"

Kou Zhun held the teacup and put it down uneasy, saying, "Yang Daqi died strangely. When he died, the doors and windows were bolted from the study, but he was killed by someone using three steel needles to penetrate into his head."

Dongming frowned: "That's what he killed, but this case should not be the responsibility of my Beidou Division. Mr. Kou should know that our Beidou Division..."

Kou Zhun interrupted him: "I know that the Beidou Department is only responsible for the cases assigned by the emperor and the strange and strange things. Although this case is strange, it does not require the Beidou Department to take action."

Tomiya smiled: "Yes, if the case that should be under the charge of the Three Justice Department, if our Beidou Department rashly intervenes, it will cause unnecessary criticism."

Kou Zhun picked up the teacup and took a sip: "This case itself may not be bizarre, but if I make the right judgment, the people involved in it are extraordinary."

Dongming stared at Kou Zhun: "That should not be the responsibility of Beidou Department, the law should not be abolished! Unless... Kou Gong can ask for the imperial edict."

Kou Zhun raised his eyes and stared at Dongming: "What if I say that this case is related to the case of Jingshi Zheng?"

Dongming was stunned and his face became cold: "Zheng Ziwen?"

Kou Zhun nodded: "Not bad! Zheng Jingshi was killed in Tai'an. Do you know what he did in Tai'an?"

Dongming looked at Kou Zhun and didn't say anything.

Kou Zhun continued: "The reason why Zheng Ziwen went to Tai'an was because someone complained that the emperor had fed his own pockets when he went to Mount Tai to Fengshan. Yang Daqi, the judge of the branch, was Kong Mu, who was responsible for the expenses of the Ministry of Works at that time, and was one of the important suspects in this corruption case!"

Dongming was a little surprised when he heard this, pondered for a moment and said, "But... when Zheng Jingshi went to Tai'an to work, he found that De Miao forged auspiciousness and wealth to save people's wealth, so he was killed."

Kou Zhun: "Yes, that was an accident. But, as soon as Demiao was arrested by you, someone recommended Demiao to His Majesty and let her escape. The corruption case of the Ministry of Works also involved him. Do you think these two cases are still unrelated?"

Dongming said and said: "This is him... is Ding Wei and Ding Gong?"

Kou Zhun looked cold and nodded, "He is the prime minister, and the Three Laws may not be able to find out his head, so I can only ask for help from you, Beidou!"

Dongming pondered for a moment and nodded seriously: "Since that's the case, Beidou Shi has no choice but to do so!"

After seeing Kou Zhun away, Dongming came to the main hall and ordered someone to call Yin Guang, Liu Suifeng and others.

Soon, everyone rushed over.

Dongming and Yin Guang looked at each other, nodded slightly, and then said to Liu Suifeng and Yao Guang: "Wenqu, Yao Guang."

Liu Sufeng and Yaoguang came out and stood in the middle.

Dongming looked serious: "Yang Daqi, the judge of Duzhi, died unexpectedly at home last night. The cause of death is bizarre. I will order you and the two of you to help handle the case."

Liu Suifeng and Yaoguang bowed to Dongming: "The subordinates receive the order."
