【two hundred and eighty-seventh chapter】The truth of defending suicide
This sudden bad news made Jiang Chengjia get goose bumps all over her body.
She remembered the farewell words Bai Weimian said to her a few days ago. His solemn separation was deeply engraved in her mind and could not be gone. Jiang Chengjia couldn't believe it. He was escorting fake criminals on the execution ground yesterday, and she saw him in the prefect's house at night. How could he be so suddenly... dead?
Jiang Chengjia didn't have a deep impression of Bai Wei's name and had no deep friendship. Hearing the news of his sudden death, he felt more absurd than shock.
"Qianshan...I want to go to the charity village." Jiang Chengjia was cold all over, and she felt that Bai Weijun's death was very strange.
She was determined and thought she had to go, and her expression was willing to go.
Qianshan knew that she would not be able to persuade her, so she could only lower her eyes, cover up her worries, and replied softly: "That servant packs up and changes the girl's clothes."
Jiang Chengjia nodded and let her go forward to tidy up and change her clothes.
After a stick of incense, the master and servant hurried out from the courtyard and rushed to the charity village on the outskirts of the city.
It was snowing all night in the border town, and the surroundings were covered with silver, and the chill was scattered. The feet of few pedestrians on the way made them tremble and wrap their thick robes tighter.
Something happened at the execution ground at the city entrance yesterday, and today the commander of the military defense of the city was hung on the city wall. The city was in a row of turmoil and everyone was in danger. Walking on the road and looking at the depressed scenery in the city was completely different from the prosperous appearance she had when she first came to this city. Jiang Chengjia felt uncomfortable.
The city gates were already wide open, and the garrison troops were running in and out, and the atmosphere was extremely depressing.
The closer you get to Yizhuang, Jiang Chengjia's heart beats rapidly. This small village has white cloth floating around, almost integrated with silver snow. Bai Weijun's mortal is in a simple and clean house, far away from other houses in the village.
The master and servant took some effort to find the house. However, before the person approached, they could hear the noise of a child crying in the inner room. The sounds of "Uncle! Uncle" circled in the fall of the courtyard, whimpering, like resentment, and shrill and touching.
Just listening to this voice, the master and servant outside the door burst into tears. Even though the people lying in the inner room had no close relationship with them, they were also infected by such a scene, and couldn't help feeling sad and distressed.
A Qian was only four or five years old. Before her life began, she had lost her father and lost her mother in the war. Now the only uncle who cared about him and loved him was gone. How could a child endure these many separations?
When they entered the house, they saw Xiao Sa's subordinates holding A Qian who was crying endlessly, looking helpless. Xiao Sa and Ning Nanyou were waiting for the coroner's autopsy results in the inner room. Listening to the hysterical cry of the children in the outer courtyard, their hearts were also confused.
No one expected that Bai Weimeng would die suddenly.
The two men's faces were ashes and looked dejected, both of whom were frowning at this sudden case.
The generals guarding near the house were all border guards. Seeing Qianshan pushing Jiang Chengjia to this place, they bowed and called out, "Madam Shao." Everyone knew the girl and knew that although she was a woman, she was brave and even stronger, braver than a man, and extremely intelligent. Therefore, the border guards respected her very much.
Without saying much, Jiang Chengjia nodded slightly and went straight to the inner room.
Ning Nanyou heard the movement outside the court and slowly looked out the window. When he saw the girl appearing, he frowned involuntarily.
Qianshan pushed Jiang Chengjia's wooden wheel into the room, and the young man who looked like jade spoke coldly, and his first sentence was: "Why are you here?"
The two young and beautiful girls in front of the door were stunned.
When Jiang Chengjia heard his tone, he felt irritated, so he also replied coldly: "The commander of the Hundred has also fought side by side with me. Now that something happened to him, do you want me to stay in the prefect's house calmly and wait for news?"
When the boys and girls meet, they get tense and the atmosphere is particularly gloomy and awkward.
Xiao Sa hurriedly stepped forward to break the atmosphere: "Mrs. Shao can come naturally...Don't worry, Caozhou Wei, there are guards around the house, which is very safe. There will be no problem." He knew in his heart that Ning Nanyou's reason for not wanting Jiang Chengjia to come was because he was afraid that there would be any more danger in the city and that it would involve her.
But Jiang Chengjia didn't think so. She thought that the young man in front of her was deliberately guarding her, so she refused to let her interfere in these matters. However, in such an occasion, she was unwilling to engage in more entanglements and quarrels. She snorted coldly and gave up the matter.
Seeing that the boy and girl stopped talking, Xiao Sa dared to take a breath.
The coroner who was in the inner hall was released at this time. The man was wearing a coarse linen, with some unwashed blood on his hands and a cold sweat.
Xiao Sa immediately got up and asked, "How is it? Did you find out what? Was this person killed by him?"
The coroner had a deep eyes and a serious expression, and said, "Report to the governor. Although the deceased was hit by a blunt weapon during his lifetime,... he did hang himself and died."
As soon as these words came out, the faces of the two men present changed and they were shocked.
Jiang Chengjia was confused and asked in a daze: "General Bai... was hit by a blunt weapon during his lifetime? How could he die by hang himself? Well, why did he commit suicide?"
The coroner lowered his head and heard the girl's question, he answered truthfully: "The commander had a fierce fight with others before his lifetime. There were bruises left after the fight, but these injuries were not dead. The real cause of death was suffocation."
The girl was confused and confused when she heard it. When she was about to ask, Xiao Sa took the lead and said, "Today, when the city gate defenders changed their defenses... she found Bai Weijun hanging at the battlement of the city wall. Her death was extremely strange. Her neck was almost half broken by a straw rope. Her eyes suddenly opened, and she died with her eyes closed. Her hands were tightly tied to the knot, and her seven orifices were bleeding. She also had scars on her body. She immediately determined that the case was a killing, but the rope that strangled Bai Commander was very strange. Its inner buckle didn't look like a knot that would be tied when she hung the corpse. So she led the coroner to examine the autopsy... The result..."
As a result, no one expected that Bai Weimeng did not kill him, but hang himself.
This made Xiao Sa very puzzled. Bai Weimeng, as the leader of a city, is now very important. Why did he hang himself suddenly? Where did the injuries on his body come from?
Xiao Sa did not have an answer, so the coroner continued: "Mr. Governor, the neck of the commander Bai's commander was not broken...but before he hanged himself, he slashed his throat and neck. The villain had also carefully looked at the scene and found that there was a pile of blood that was not naturally lowered just below the trunk of the commander Bai's commander hanging corpse. The blood-stained striker was a bit like a blade. When the villain was just taking the autopsy, he carefully checked the commander's throat and found that the wound in his throat was caused by the sharp knife, and the wound caused by the blade was inward. If it was stabbed by someone else, the blade would not be in its current shape because it was sideways outward."
Xiao Sa said in surprise: "Has he cut his throat himself before hanging himself?"
The coroner nodded, bent his hands and bowed, "It's true. Except for the bruises on the body of the commander Bai, the other two fatal injuries were caused by heavy blows from others, he was all done by himself."
Ning Nanyou's deep eyes condensed, and a storm appeared in his heart.
What exactly is it that makes Bai defending his title such a desperate move?
Jiang Chengjia's heart skipped a beat, and she felt a cold wave surging around her, making her tremble.
The border town is in a turbulent tide, and many things are trembling.
The truth about what the coroner said made the three of them fall into deep thought, and they all wondered why Bai Weizhang treated him like this?
After a stick of incense, Jiang Chengjia came out of the house, looking melancholy.
The little boy outside the house is still crying endlessly, which is upsetting.
She looked up, looking depressed. The moment she saw Aqian, the irritability in her heart instantly turned into heartache. Jiang Chengjia slowly rolled on the wooden wheel and headed towards the officer holding Aqian. She stared at the child in the officer's arms and whispered: "Aqian... Do you still know your sister?"
The child sobbed and looked at Jiang Chengjia, staring at her blankly with big misty eyes.
There was a moment of calm in the room.
The soldiers around who were troubled by the crying noise finally breathed a sigh of relief and rubbed their dizzy brains.
Unexpectedly, the child stopped for less than two minutes and started crying again. While crying, he shouted: "Sister...my uncle...he doesn't want to see me anymore. My uncle will never want to see me anymore. Aqian will be a child no one wants. Uncle said...my mother left too. He told me to take my mother's jade pendant to find her...but Aqian can't find it. Aqian really can't find it. Sister...I miss my father, I miss my mother, I miss my uncle..."
He cried, and tears that could not be stopped fell.
Jiang Chengjia looked at the child huddled in the officer's arms, crying so hard that his eyes were red, and his heart was burning like oil.
"Aqian...Come here... Is it okay to hug you sister?" She stretched out her hand to the child and opened her arms.
The little boy was stunned again, stopped crying, hesitated for a moment, and opened his arms at her.
The officer hesitated for a moment, and saw the girl nodding at him, he handed the child in his arms out.
A Qian hugged the girl, as if she had grabbed a life-saving straw. Her little hand held her clothes tightly and sobbed, "Sister... can you take me to find my father, mother and uncle? Otherwise, no one would have wanted it."
Jiang Chengjia gently coaxed: "Will A Qian follow her sister in the future?"
Aqian said firmly: "Not good..."
Jiang Chengjia listened to his soft sob and affirmative answer, and asked carefully: "Why doesn't Aqian want to follow her sister? Isn't her sister good?"
