In Penglai, Di Renjie found a male corpse just as he reached the boundary of Penglai, so he took the corpse with him and arrived just when the city gate was about to close. The soldiers guarding the city thought that the time had come and refused to allow entry. Qiao Tai tried to argue with him, but people surrounded him.After getting up, Di Renjie immediately identified himself and entered the city smoothly.Ma Rong bought cakes on the street, and Di Renjie found that the prices here were much lower than those in Chang'an and the order was very orderly. Although the previous county magistrate was imprisoned for three months for smuggling, Di Renjie was amazed that the county town was still orderly.At this time, Ma Rong noticed that the woman was applying powder on her face, and she couldn't help but be curious. She quickly asked the store to find out, and unexpectedly learned that it was for beauty, and she couldn't help but remember it in her heart.

Teng Kan's poem was the leader of this session. Unexpectedly, he also came to Penglai. Di Renjie was very excited to see his old friend in a foreign land. He was invited to attend Teng Kan's banquet. When he saw Cao An, he felt very friendly. He didn't want to hear Cao An singing again later.In Bingzhou Minor, Di Renjie became suspicious and left the banquet in the middle of the banquet. He originally wanted to ask about the four-painted screen he heard at the banquet, but Tengkan refused to mention it more because of family matters.Di Renjie noticed that Tengkan wanted to vomit and stepped forward to pat his back, but Tengkan would not let anyone touch his body, and Tengkan's wife Anemone also retreated into the house in panic after seeing a sneaky and ugly man.Di Renjie became suspicious.Hong Liang took the man's body back for inspection. When Di Renjie returned, he judged the situation at the time based on the deceased's injuries and accurately calculated that the deceased had been stabbed seven times and died, and that the deceased was also a patient who had been cured of leprosy.Ma Rong hired a painter to paint a portrait of the deceased. The painter refused to do it when he saw that it was a dead person, but Hong Liang did not give him a chance to refuse. He directly asked the painter to polish the ink and watched the painter start working. Soon the portrait of the deceased was posted, but because the deceased had passedLeprosy disfigured his face, and no one recognized him for a while.

Cao An sat in the room and looked in the mirror, listening to the lightning and thunder outside and the pouring rain. He recalled that when he was young, he was almost humiliated when he was chased by others. It was Master Heiyan from the Penghai Gang who saved her.Di Renjie always felt that Cao An seemed familiar, so he asked Hong Liang whether Di Zhisun had interacted with an official named Cao before, and learned that Cao Hean was killed for secretly minting private coins.Hong Liang knew that Di Renjie would never do useless work, so he asked Di Renjie about the reason for this, but Di Renjie kept silent.Ma Rong saw someone on the street mocking Di Renjie for posting a portrait to find out the identity of the deceased. He was so angry that he deliberately stepped on the corner of the man's clothes to make him fall. Seeing that he was about to harm the girl standing next to him, Ma Rong took action to kill the girl.He rescued him and took away the man's money bag at the same time, hoping to teach him a lesson.

Ma Rong brought the newly bought boots back home to look for Di Renjie. He was very disappointed when he saw that Di Renjie was not in the house. He did not want Di Renjie to sit in the pavilion. Di Renjie heard that Ma Rong had guessed that the rain would fall in an hour, so he said it would be half an hour.Later, he also made a bet with Ma Rong. If he won, Ma Rong would be arrested for theft. At the same time, he reminded Ma Rong, who was wearing powder on his face, that those people on the street who were wearing powder on their faces were all because of leprosy.Ma Rong was so frightened that she quickly wiped her face and quietly returned the money bag to the man. However, as soon as she stepped off the wall, she was beaten with a black stick and put in a sack.Ma Rong immediately struck back. The people who came to arrest him were very frightened when they saw that they were in trouble, but they still stated that everyone must abide by the rules of the Ba Zong.Ma Rong thought of Penglai County, which had no backlog of cases, and immediately cooperated to have her tied up in Ba Zong. Seeing that Ma Rong was just a little girl, the head of Ba Zong asked people to loosen her bonds. He learned that Ma Rong was Di Renjie's person.Let Ma Rong leave, but it is easier to ask the gods than to give them away. Ma Rong wanted to get back the power of the county magistrate for Di Renjie. This move made the overlord of the sect sneer, and he insisted that things should be done according to the rules of the world, so he and Ma Rong drank together, but they didn'tThinking of a group of people being stunned by Ma Rong, they drank him down.

In Teng's mansion, Yinlian was concentrating on writing. There was a man with ten sharp nails lying on the window peeping. He suddenly entered and attacked Yinlian. Yinlian was stabbed several times and fell in a pool of blood. Tengkan's white clothes were stained with blood and fell to the ground. The housekeeperHearing the screams and realizing something was wrong, he quickly called someone to check and found that Tengkan was still breathing. He asked someone to save Tengkan first, and at the same time ordered the ladies to guard the study and prevent anyone from entering.After Tengkan woke up, he recalled the tragedy and felt that he had killed Anemone, so he came to surrender. Di Renjie immediately went to the scene to investigate and judged the circumstances of the murder through clues. He found that Anemone also died from seven stab wounds, andThere were traces left by the screen, so he asked the housekeeper about the whereabouts of the screen, and saw that the screen in the warehouse that was supposed to be a couple embracing each other turned into a picture of the murder of his wife. Combined with Tengkan's sudden madness and the footprints at the murder scene, he determined that the silver screen had been killed.There is another person in Lian.
