[R18] Dali Temple.Qing (Shuangjie solves the case 1v1) – “Dali Temple. Qing (Shuangjie solves the case 1v1)” Chapter 18 Wind Cold [English]

The moonlight was clear and bright, and a few palace lanterns were swaying.

Wei Shu stood in front of the window, looking at a line of faintly flickering firelights in the distance, heading towards Chenghuan Hall.

That is the carriage of the Queen and the Queen Mother.

A quarter of an hour ago, she was taken down from the roof beam, crying and clamoring to commit suicide to prove her innocence.

This incident finally alarmed the Queen Mother.

The last plot failed, of course those people would not just let her go.They want her to find a way to intervene in Su Moyi’s investigation of this case to provide intelligence.

To get close to Su Moyi, besides going through the emperor, it was also through the queen mother.

But no matter how much the queen tried to persuade her, the queen mother was still unwilling to let go of Su Moyi’s matter.

As a last resort, she had no choice but to direct and act in this play.

The longing figure had already walked to the front of the palace. When she heard the voice of the boy watching at the door kneeling down to say goodbye, she immediately lay back on the bed.

The door was opened and the fire in the room went out, revealing Queen Chen’s eyes that were swollen from crying.Although the Queen Mother’s expression was a little displeased, she was more sympathetic.

“Royal Grandmother…” Wei Shu called out in a trembling voice, her eyes immediately turning red.

After all, she is a legitimate granddaughter, and she is still a little girl. It is understandable that she has suffered some crimes and done stupid things.The Queen Mother immediately relented, walked to Wei Shu’s bed, sat down, and touched her pale cheek.

“How could you do such a stupid thing?” The Queen Mother held her delicate hand and said sadly: “If your father knew about it, he would probably say that you are ignorant.”

Wei Shu didn’t answer, her beautiful eyes were filled with mist, which made people feel distressed.

The Queen Mother could only comfort her and said: “The Emperor and Jing Che will make the decision for you in your matter. What do you think you have to cause trouble for?”

When Wei Shu heard this, she couldn’t hold back the tears in her eyes anymore, and they fell down drop by drop, like beads with broken strings.

“It’s Shu’er who is willful. Shu’er shouldn’t make the Queen Mother and Imperial Grandmother worried. But Shu’er is so scared…”

She sobbed, as if she was trying her best to suppress her emotions. Compared to howling unbridled, her fearful and aggrieved appearance was even more heart-wrenching to see.

“When Shu’er closes her eyes every night, she sees those little sisters in her daily life, laughing at Shu’er behind her back, saying that Shu’er has lost her innocence and royal dignity… Shu’er went to the date because she likes her cousin…”

As she spoke, the little girl began to burst into tears again, and soon she was sobbed that she could not speak.

“But what can grandma do about your cousin?” The Queen Mother took out a handkerchief and gently wiped her tears.

Wei Shu immediately hugged the Queen Mother aggrievedly, her tear-stained face buried in her heart, and her whole body was shaking violently.

“Shu’er, Shu’er just wants a chance. If she can spend more time with her cousin, maybe my cousin will like Shu’er…”

The little girl cried more and more and became more and more sad. Queen Chen who was standing beside her began to wipe her tears uncontrollably when she saw her daughter like this.

Both mother and daughter were sobbing, and for a while the Queen Mother was unable to comfort her. She only patted Wei Shu on the shoulder and asked, “So what do you want?”

Wei Shu lay on the Queen Mother’s chest and just cried.

The Queen Mother sighed helplessly.

It seems like the little girl really likes that little bastard.

But with Jing Che’s temper, unless he insisted on it himself, he would probably hurt people even more deeply.

The palms and backs of the hands are all flesh.

Besides, she originally planned to bring the two of them together. Since the little girl is so determined, maybe it’s a good thing.

In this case, the Queen Mother helped Wei Shu up and said, “Perhaps Grandma Huang can help you.”

Dali Temple Villa.

Lin Wanqing had been writing paperwork all morning. After lunch, he lay down for a while when he heard a sneaky knock on the door outside.

Five short and two long, followed by a high-pitched meow.

“…” Lin Wanqing held her forehead, wondering why some people could do things that were justifiable but made them suspicious.

She stood up and opened the door, and she saw Liang Weiping with his waist bent and a food box in his hand.

Without saying a word, he ran towards Lin Wanqing’s room with his head lowered.

“What are you doing?” Lin Wanqing frowned and followed.

Liang Weiping looked around secretly, put his hand on his mouth and whispered: “I will give you medicine.”

Lin Wanqing felt a tightness in her chest, snatched the food box from he’s hand, pulled a stool and pushed him up and said, “So you came in over the wall?”

Liang Weiping was stunned and said proudly: “How could that be possible! I said I was looking for Lin Wanqing to record things, and they brought me here.”

He stood up as he spoke, took a look at Lin Wanqing’s residence, and couldn’t help but admired: “Hey! I said that Dali Temple, which is responsible for the world’s prisons, is pretty good. Look! The beams are thicker than those in Jingzhao Mansion.”

Lin Wanqing drank the medicine while poking out his eyes, “You looked so sly outside just now, I’m afraid you didn’t want people to misunderstand that you came to Dali Temple to rob the prison.”

Liang Weiping choked and defended as if he had been wronged: “Isn’t this the difference between men and women? I am a grown man, and I entered a woman’s boudoir in broad daylight and stayed alone behind closed doors. How should I explain it to others if they see it?”

“…” Lin Wanqing was speechless. She just wanted to drink the medicine in her hand quickly and send Liang Weiping away.

The small wooden door that had been in disrepair was suddenly pushed open, and there was a “squeak” sound, like nails scratching across the smooth stone wall.

The light that penetrated into the room from outside the door was mostly blocked, and Lin Wanqing looked up when he heard the sound.When her hand shook, the medicine she was holding spilled out, and it was so hot that she almost dropped the bowl.

“You, you guys…” She guiltily hid the medicine in her hand behind her back, looked at the visitor and asked, “Didn’t you knock on the door when you came in?”

Ye Qing looked back, rubbed the back of his head and replied: “You didn’t close the door…”

Lin Wanqing didn’t dare to look up, and her eyes immediately fell on the thirteen-piece gold and jade belt of the purple official robe next to her.

This was the first time the two met after the heavy rain that night.

Lin Wanqing blushed imperceptibly.

Because only she knows the strength, speed and duration of this waist-twitching…

She was stunned and quickly shook her head to get rid of those shameful thoughts.

However, Su Moyi on the side was not aware of Lin Wanqing’s little thoughts.A pair of black eyes stared intently at Liang Weiping, his expression revealing an indescribable weirdness.

Liang Weiping is timid again.

Now seeing Su Moyi’s cold face, he was filled with worries. He was so frightened that his legs weakened and he staggered back a few steps.

“What are you doing here?”

Although Su Moyi still had a calm expression on her face, her tone was clearly unkind.

“I…I…” Liang Weiping was speechless with fear.

Lin Wanqing saw this and stood in front of him, “He is here to deliver medicine to me.”

Su Moyi’s sharp eyes moved to the medicine Lin Wanqing was holding, and she asked in a deep voice, “Is Lin Lushi sick?”

As he spoke, he extended his hand to her.

Lin Wanqing was so excited that she immediately raised her head and drank it all, regardless of whether the medicine had just been simmered.

She drank too quickly, and the liquid overflowed her nasal cavity, burning her throat and causing her to cough violently again.

However, Su Moyi’s hand stopped at the scarf around her neck, and she looked at her with puzzled eyes.

“It has been warm for a long time. Why is Lin Lushi still wearing a scarf?”

Lin Wanqing’s face turned pale in an instant, and she hurriedly dropped the bowl and covered her neck.

“I…I caught a cold, and the doctor said I should wear a scarf to keep warm.”

Su Moyi looked at her, her narrow phoenix eyes slightly narrowed.After all, he has been an official for many years and has experienced the ups and downs of the court. The pressure of the superiors on him cannot be resisted.

Now add a little unkind look.

Even Lin Wanqing, who was calm in situations, immediately moved his eyes imperceptibly and looked down at the three feet square under his feet.

Su Moyi took the pen and paper from Ye Qing’s hand and stuffed it into Lin Wanqing’s arms, “Get your things and follow.”

After saying that, he turned around and left.

Lin Wanqing was suddenly stuffed into his arms, and before he could hold the pen firmly in his hand, he heard Su Mo recall: “Another rape and murder case occurred in Baiyuan, south of the city.”

Ye Qing followed cautiously, but when he reached Su Moyi’s side, he pulled him back.

“Does Chief Liang of Jingzhao Mansion have a close relationship with Lin Lu?” Su Moyi asked, with no emotion in his voice.

Ye Qing thought for a while and hesitated: “It should be pretty good… Last time Lin Lushi was whipped, and when his subordinates went to deliver medicine, they saw he taking care of Lin Lushi in his room.”

Su Moyi stopped suddenly and turned around to look back.

Liang Weiping took care of injuries and illnesses. It seems that the relationship between the two is indeed extraordinary.

Somehow, he felt even more unhappy at the moment, as if a huge stone was pressing on his chest, making it difficult to breathe. He could only say to Ye Qing with a cold face: “Let her hurry up. If she is delayed, she can ride a horse by herself.”

Ye Qing came down and suddenly remembered that there was no horse ready for Lin Wanqing in Dali Temple, so he couldn’t help but ask another question.

Mr. Su, who was walking in front, flicked his sleeves, glanced at him coldly and said, “Ride your horse.”

“What about me?”

“What do you do with those long legs?”

Ye Qing: “…”

The wheels rumbled against the ground, running over the bumps and grooves on the bluestone.

Lin Wanqing put down the car curtain she was holding on to, and looked back from the bustling market to the man sitting beside her.

Su Moyi didn’t seem to want to talk to her, and as soon as she got in the car, she put on an air of being distant from others.From beginning to end, he only kept a dark face, leaning against the car wall with his eyes closed to meditate.

In an already small and confined space, the air pressure is frighteningly low.

Lin Wanqing was also worried about this, so she didn’t want to provoke him at this time.

The two of them rode in silence all the way from Dali Temple in the north of Shengjing City to Baiyuan in the south of the city.

As soon as she got off the car, Su Moyi led a group of people into the courtyard without waiting for her.

This is a private residence that was bought by a wealthy businessman a few years ago and turned into an outhouse.

Usually no one lives there, only two maids and a wealthy businessman’s outer room.And wealthy businessmen would only stay overnight when they came to Shengjing to do business.

The deceased was the outsider who was kept in the house by the wealthy businessman.

Her body was discovered by the maid while sweeping after breakfast.

According to the serving maid, this girl Yun Dai was a singing girl in Pingkangfang before she became a foreigner, so she would play the piano and practice her voice every afternoon, and would go to the lobby to eat at lunch time.

But today the maid discovered that she unusually did not go to the lobby during meal time.

The two finally found her in her bedroom, and by that time, she was already dead.

While Lin Wanqing was recording the statements of the two maids, she followed Su Moyi to the bed where the deceased was placed.

With just one glance, Lin Wanqing was startled when he saw the corpse of the deceased, and he retched immediately.

Previously, she was only responsible for transcribing and organizing case files in Jingzhao Mansion, and had never been to the crime scene in person.Of course, I can’t understand the difference between the literal word “abuse” and the reality.

However, Su Moyi, who had always been fastidious, seemed to be used to these scenes. He calmly put on his veil and gloves, burned moi to cleanse himself, and began to carefully examine the body.

But the usual awkwardness is gone at all.

Lin Wanqing didn’t dare to look, so she turned away and asked Ye Qing, “Does Mr. Su always perform autopsies by himself?”

Ye Qing nodded, “Since you first entered Dali Temple, in all the cases you have handled, if you have access to the crime scene, you must have done the autopsy in person.”

Lin Wanqing was a little surprised.

Unexpectedly, a person who has to line up his books and pens in a straight line, and who has to bring his own tea and tea sets when going to a teahouse, can do an autopsy by himself.

She looked at Su Moyi in a daze for a while, until the maid next to her who was also frightened and did not dare to look at the body handed her a cup of hot tea and said, “Girl, drink some water to calm down the shock.”

Lin Wanqing, who was about to take the teapot, shook her hand and turned pale for a moment.

Yes, when the men present saw the corpse, no one reacted.

Only she and the two maids were shivering and didn’t dare to raise their eyes.Besides, she wore a scarf when she went out today, and her Adam’s apple was not obvious. No wonder the maid called her “girl”…

She suddenly felt extremely guilty. Her first reaction was not to refute, but to quietly look at Su Moyi.
