Attack Jade (攻玉) - Chapter 59
[Chapter 39 (1)]
Teng Yuyi’s heart suddenly jumped to his throat, if he couldn’t move, he would have rushed to the side of the Absolute Saint to find out.
Lin Chengyou stared closely at the Absolute Saint: “Who is it talking about?”
The Absolute Saint was extremely anxious, Tian Yunde lost his hands, and with such a comparison as a broken wrist, the scope was inevitably too large.
He poked a certain name furiously: “Boss Tian, are you talking about this person?”
Tian Yunde shook his head desperately, trembling and sending the broken wrist forward, just at this moment, Qi’s ghost suddenly shook violently like a piece of paper, regardless of the red rope tied around his waist, screaming to jump out of the formation.
Lin Chengyou did not guard against Qi’s sudden attack, his right hand stabilized the red rope, and the other hand flew out a spell, but before he could restrain Qi Shi, he poofed, and the seven oil lamps were extinguished in unison.
The small Buddha Hall was suddenly pitch black, Lin Chengyou knew that it was not good, and the flying charm lit the candle on the incense case behind him, and the flame trembled, and his eyes once again opened up.
The rope was quietly entrusted to the ground, and the ghosts of the Tian couple had long since disappeared.
Lin Chengyou ripped off the red rope on his finger and stood up: “Who is Tian Yunde just talking about?” The
Jedi drew a circle on the roster: “This piece of broken wrist is about mo finger.” Lin Chengyou stared
at it, and there were six names in the circle, Wo Ji, Calyx, Ge Jian, He Mingsheng, Bao Zhu, and Roll Pear.
Obviously, it is only one step away from knowing who it is. Lin Chengyou snorted coldly: “No problem, it’s a big deal to do it again.” He turned
back to re-start the formation, and the people rushed over to stop him: “Oh, I can’t do it, this is a magic trick, Shizi beware of bad cultivation.”
Lin Chengyou squatted down and lit the oil lamp: “There are still many things that I have not figured out at the moment, since I know that the murderer has something to do with the Tian couple, I just need to understand it at once.”
Seeing the heavens, he shook his head: “You and I should not have been contaminated with evil arts, even if we did it once in order to investigate the case, there is absolutely no reason to start the battle again and again.”
Lin Chengyou heard the word “contaminated”, and suddenly a spirit was excited, what was wrong with him? Knowing that there is a great harm, but insisting on starting the battle, only to be full of thoughts about how to find out the name of the murderer, others can not stop it, so obsessed, is not it infected with evil nature and do not know it? Strange Dao Master Zun said, “All the techniques that go against the heavens and the paradox are all hidden in danger”, he was already defensive enough, or he was almost caught.
Lin Chengyou fixed his mind, blew out the candle in his hand, stood up, and smiled: “The senior reminded me correctly, fang is that I am confused.”
Teng Yuyi did not understand why he could not start the battle again, seeing that the Dao was so nervous, thinking that it was related to the taboo in the Dao, she looked down at the names on the roster and pondered: “Twelve paintings – only one person’s surname here is twelve paintings.” Zhi
Zhi said excitedly, “I’ll take a look.” Suddenly
dumbfounded: “Yu.” Calyx? The Absolute Saint couldn’t
believe it: “How could it be her?”
Seeing Xi sighed, “I really can’t see it, this Calyx has always been sleek and pleasing, and behind her back, she is so vicious, looking at her daily words and deeds, she really can’t see that she has a special skill.” Seeing Le’s
shoulders on his head, he said, “Xi Xi, your words are not right, the more people with deep internal strength, the more they know how to hide.” I only wondered how she had formed a vendetta against the Tian couple, and why did she want to harm the Yao Huang sisters?
“Don’t forget that Calyx is a senior prostitute in PingkangFang, and she lived here when cai shukhang was still alive.” Seeing Xian Yue said, the brighter his eyes became, “All of this is right, Calyx Ji knows both the Tian couple and the false mother of Cai Feng Lou, and the two dead couples before and after her are all related to her!”
Teng Yuyi coughed twice: “But as far as I know, prostitutes often use pseudonyms, and it is estimated that false mothers are no exception.”
Lin Chengyou was studying the broken red rope, listened to this and thought about it, Teng Yuyi knew a lot, he grew so big, in addition to investigating cases and catching demons, she almost did not step on the door of Pingkang Fang, she was good, as soon as she came, she generously raised rolled pears and hugging beads, not to mention, these twists and turns of the prostitutes, it seems to know a lot.
But she was right, Calyx may not be surnamed Calyx, what is her real name, you still have to look at the deed.
He picked up the silver nails scattered on the ground, and although the formation was defeated in the middle, the harvest was not small.
Absolute Saint and Renunciation: “Brother Master, do you want to go back to the front building?”
“I went to check what the Tian and his wife had done before they were alive.” You two put away everything on the ground, and don’t lose my bamboo basket for me. Although the
two servants had not turned back before, they were not lightly frightened, and Lin Chengyou walked over to the two of them, took out an Shen Dan from his arms and gave them a smile, “There is no need to take care of this place anymore, you go down and have a good rest.” Shocked
, ya gong nodded and left.
Teng Yuyi was full of “practicing swords”, the array took more than half an hour, if it was changed to sword training, it was enough for her to learn a move and a half, Lin Chengyou’s front foot just left, and her back foot pulled out the sword out of the sheath: “Gentlemen, take advantage of the wine and food to return to the future, let’s practice a few moves first.” The
people wanted to take a break, but seeing that Teng Yuyi’s eyes were shining brightly, they knew that they could not rest, they pouted with dissatisfaction and walked slowly to the front of the case.
Teng Yuyi was a fierce spirit, an old Daoist pouted that she could endure, and five old Daoists pouted in unison, which was simply a spectacle.
Fortunately, she could turn around under the pretext of practicing her sword, and she didn’t have to be forced to watch this scene.
Lin Chengyou had just walked to the door and was greeted by a servant: “Shizi, there is a prostitute who wants to see you.”
“Who?”
“A lady named Baozhu.”
She? Lin Chengyou nodded, “Bring her here.” After
a while, she hugged the pearl under the guidance of The Servant and entered the Buddhist hall, she seemed to be dressed up tonight, her cheeks were coated with a little rouge, and her lips were more tender than the day, she looked down at the corner of her skirt, each step was full of style, and when she came in, she suddenly found that the room was full of people, and she was frightened to stop her steps, and when she saw Teng Yuyi, her expression became more and more uncomfortable.
She panicked, “I have seen His Highness Shizi.”
Teng Yuyi glanced at The Pearl strangely, she should not have thought that Lin Chengyou was here alone.
“What are you going to pray about?”
The bead bites and loosens its lips, and the lip color instantly becomes rosy and full.
Lin Chengyou furrowed his brows impatiently: “Is there something or is it okay?” She
shrank down, but still didn’t open her mouth.
“It looks like it’s all right.” Lin Chengyou nodded with a smile and said with a deep face, “Come, send this person to the Dali Temple, disturb the officials’ handling of the case without reason, according to the law, you can fight twenty, first beat her twenty boards, and then punish her separately if you are not honest.”
Baozhu was shocked, and knelt on the ground on both knees: “The slave family and the slave family really have important things to say, I didn’t think about how to say it, I definitely didn’t mean to tease Shizi, and askEd Your Highness to open up.”
She said while prostrating her head vigorously, obviously frightened, Wu Dao listened to the sound of “bang bang bang”, her heart was quite unbearable, this little beauty specially dressed up, most of them had other thoughts, but so what, so stunning, moving some crooked brains is harmless, Lin Chengyou This stinky boy has a good skin bag, and he doesn’t know how to pity Xiang Xiyu at all.
Lin Chengyou looked down at Baozhu and said, “You’d better know each other, if you dare to pull things around again.” “The
slave family will never dare to speak in vain.” Baozhu was dizzy, weakly pressed his forehead to the ground, originally had some thoughts in his heart, this time he was completely afraid, “In the afternoon, Shizi went to the slave family to ask a few questions, and after returning to the room, the slave family remembered a very strange thing, Shizi asked Xiaofotang and the idle person today, in fact, The scroll pear had seen the side of the idle person last month, and I don’t know if the scroll pear has mentioned this to the shizi. Lin Chengyou’s
eyes rippled, last month? The idle people did not appear again half a year ago, and it turned out that they had returned to Chang’an in the middle of the way.
“Where did she see the runaways?”
BaoZhu did not dare to look up, and said 1510.
That day was the eighth day of the first month, Calyx Ji Te allowed Baozhu and Curly Pear to go to the Bodhi Temple to incense, but unfortunately Hugging Zhu’s body was not happy, Curly Pear had to go out with other little ladies, and when she returned, she quietly said to Baozhu: “The Lord’s family sends people to Luoyang every day to arrest the idle people, who knows that the Daoist priest is hiding in Chang’an.” Baozhu
asked what was wrong.
Curly Pear said: “The sisters came out of the temple after burning incense, and stopped by the liquor store to buy green ant wine to drink, I went to the opposite shop to buy peach for you, and when I came out, I saw a Taoist priest hurrying past, and I thought to myself that this is not the idle person.”
BaoZhu was shocked to hear it, when she came to Cai Feng Lou, she had seen it, born with a red face and hair, with a long sword hanging from her waist, unlike an ordinary Taoist, but a bit of a ranger’s style, his appearance was so unusual, no wonder The scroll pear could recognize it at a glance.
“Isn’t this man a liar, and what is he doing?”
Curly Pear said: “He seems to be tracking someone, but unfortunately the people on the street are crowded, and they pass in a flash.”
Baozhu hurriedly said, “Doesn’t the Lord’s family hate this Daoist priest to death, so tell the Lord’s family about this.”
Curly Pear hesitated and said, “This Daoist priest doesn’t look like a bad person, maybe he is just wandering around, not deliberately deceiving people of money, if he really wants to be caught by the lord’s family, he will inevitably be imprisoned, or he will forget it.” The
two were discussing, Qingzhi Xizi passed by the door, today many people went out to hang out, Qingzhi is no exception, she still holds a large bag of food in her arms, it seems that she has gained a lot. She seemed to have heard the conversation between Baozhu and Curly Pear, but did not come in to ask.
As soon as Qingzhi left, Calyx came in. Curly Pear whispered to Baozhu, “I don’t know if they heard what we said.”
Baozhu said, “If Lady Calyx hears this, she will definitely ask us in person.” Qingzhi may not be, only our voice is not small, I guess she heard a few words, this girl’s mouth is very broken, the quasi-guarantee will ask the lord’s family for merit.
As a result, after several days, He Mingsheng’s side did not move, and Baozhu and Roll Pear speculated that either Qingzhi did not pay attention to what they were saying that day, or Qingzhi had not yet had time to tell the main family. After
Saying this, Baozhu looked up timidly at Lin Chengyou.
Lin Chengyou twisted his eyebrows and pondered, this clue is crucial, why did The Curl Pear never mention it.
Baozhu seemed to guess what Lin Chengyou was thinking, and said with trepidation: “Don’t hide from Shizi, since the curly pear was abducted by the male demon once, her mental head has been a lot worse, and a person who originally loved to talk has always been in a daze lately, and the slave family sometimes chats with her, and she often can’t even think of our business.” The slave family estimated that she did not mean to hide, but really forgot, and asked Shizi to see that her illness was not cured, and not to blame her.
Teng Yuyi heard that, and couldn’t help but be frightened, strange Dao Er Pear has always been stupid in recent days, it turned out that he was frightened by the gold-clad prince, which is not surprising, who encounters such a big demon is not afraid, in exchange for a timid, it is possible to be frightened on the spot.
Abandoning zhi’s soft heart, he couldn’t help but interject: “Niangzi don’t have to worry, the curly pear is that her soul has been disturbed, and the other is that she has strayed into the illusion, and originally needed to be quietly raised, but unfortunately there have been frequent accidents in recent days, she is called lost in recuperation, and we will send her some soup to calm the spirit and nourish the qi, and it will be good to raise more days.” Baozhu was
grateful: “Thank you so much Chief Xiaodao.”
Lin Chengyou looked at Baozhu and said, “Did anyone mention this matter in front of you after that day?” “Nothing
.” Baozhu shook his head, “If it weren’t for the afternoon Shizi inquiring about the idle people, the slave family might not have remembered it, thinking that it might be related to the arrest of the murderer, but they were worried that The curly pear had forgotten, so they had to dare to come to the court.”
Lin Chengyou sighed for a moment and then asked, “In addition to the curly pear, but has anyone else seen that idle person in Chang’an?” “Nothing
.” Baozhu added, “At least neither of us has heard of it.” ***
After holding the beads and leaving, Lin Chengyou also went to the front building.
Teng Yuyi learned a few tricks, and gradually realized that the robe on his body was greasy and heavy, sweating too much, and he had to go back to his room to change his clothes, so he told Wu Dao that he was on leave, planning to take Cheng Bo and Huo Qiu back to Yi CuiXuan.
Absolute Saint and Ren Zhi chased out: “Prince, we will accompany you.”
Teng Yuyi knew that they were worried about the corpse evil breaking in, and as he walked forward, he smiled and said, “I still have some snacks there, just give them to you to eat.” The
two of them nodded their heads, and the Absolute Saint counted his fingers: “Renunciation of Wisdom, has the prince learned a total of twelve moves?”
“Thirteen moves.” Ren Zhi sighed lightly, “There are still twenty-three moves left to practice.”
Teng Yuyi smiled and looked at them, not expecting that they were still quite concerned about her learning martial arts, according to her current progress, it was expected to be completed before dark tomorrow, and she only hoped that there would be no more mistakes in the middle, otherwise she would suffer in vain.
Soon we arrived at Yi Cui Xuan, quietly in the four corners, and there were two servants patrolling the corridor, and the prostitutes and false mothers were trapped in their respective rooms.
Cheng Bo went to the neighboring room to wait, Teng Yuyi went straight back to the room to change clothes, she simply freshened up, found a few packs of vegetarian points that the absolute saint and abandoned wisdom love to eat came out, thinking that the five ways were still in the small Buddha Hall, and the meat points such as fish and so on were also put into the tray.
After packing up and looking around, I found that there was still a plate of cherry on the case, Teng Yuyi was stunned, this thing was still put out when the beads and rolls of pears came that day, it should have been put away earlier, and then somehow forgot.
She walked through the room and opened the door by herself, but she always felt that something was wrong in her heart, Cheng Bo and the others heard the movement, and Teng Yuyi said to Huo Qiu absently, “Bring these foods to the Little Buddha Hall.”
Absolute Saint and Ren zhi took the lead in rushing into the room: “Don’t bother Big Brother Huo, let’s come.”
Huo Qiu was a straight man, smiling and about to open his mouth, when he accidentally saw Teng Yuyi’s face and was surprised: “Gongzi, what’s wrong with you?”
Teng Yuyi took a step, turned his head and walked to the other side of the corridor: “I have to go to the front building.”
Cheng Bo looked at each other and walked quickly to keep up with them in surprise.
As soon as Teng Yuyi arrived at the front building, he looked left and right: “What about Lin Chengyou?”
Ya Gong didn’t know Teng Yuyi’s identity, he only felt that this little Lang Jun was a little strange.
“Commenter Lin is on the second floor,Is there anything wrong with this man? “Under
the surname Wang, please ask the two to pass on a word for me, saying that Wang has something important to tell him.”
After Shizi and YanJizhi brought back a few case files from Dali Temple, they ordered them to wait downstairs for Wannian County Fa Cao to join the army, while they stayed on the second floor to check things, and they kindly bought hu cakes and hot soup, and as a result, they ate a closed door soup.
“Lin May not be willing to see you.” The servant spoke, “You wait here, I’ll go up and ask.”
***
Lin Chengyou stood with his back against the moon cave window, but his eyes looked at the portrait in his hand, although He Mingsheng was born as a businessman, the painter was not bad, and the description of the idle person in this painting was almost the same as that of Baozhu, tall and strong, thick eyebrows and beard, wearing a tunic and stepping shoes, which at first glance looked quite narrow.
He Mingsheng painted a total of four paintings, one of which was in the hands of Jin Wuwei and The Rider at the moment, and the other two were sent to two city gates, and within an hour, a net of heaven and earth would be laid outside the city, and as long as this Daoist priest appeared, he would be arrested immediately.
“I don’t know if I don’t check.” Yan Jizhi smiled bitterly at the desk under the lamp, “It turns out that three of the six people have the surname of ‘Twelve Paintings’, the real name of the curly pear is Qiong Qianwa, the real name of Calyx Ji is Qin, and the real name of Ge Jian is Dong.”
Lin Chengyou took over the conversation: “There is also Baozhu, she was an orphan when she was picked up, and she had no name before she was bought.” Yan Jizhi added Baozhu’s
name seriously, and conveniently crossed out He Mingsheng’s name: “It seems that this matter has nothing to do with Boss He.”
Lin Chengyou said, “Slowly.” Yan
Ji was shocked: “What’s wrong?” Could it be that He Mingsheng also used a pseudonym?
Lin Chengyou frowned: “Earlier, I already asked people to go to Luoyang to check his details, his grandfather is a luoyang giant, and there is no problem with his identity background.” But after all, he was the master of this building, whether it was a long time in the small Buddha Hall or hiding evidence after killing people, it was much more convenient for him to do things than other people in the building.
Yan Ji pointed out Ge Towel’s name directly: “After Ge Towel is disfigured, he always recuperates in the room, and there is no possibility of killing people in theory.”
Lin Chengyou pondered this: “But she has a motive to kill.”
“Motive?” Yan Ji was surprised, “She didn’t even know that she was harmed by Qingzhi and Yao Huang, how-”
Suddenly she was secretly shocked, this was only a side of Ge Jian’s words, maybe she already knew who harmed herself, but that night she deliberately made such a scene in public, which is not impossible, after all, no one in Cai Feng Lou hates Yao Huang sisters more than she does.
Yan Ji was stunned and uncertain: “That… It seems that only the curly pear and the beads are the least suspicious.
Lin Chengyou said, “Don’t you think that the curly pear is a little demented?” “Do
you suspect she’s pretending?” Yan Ji glanced straight at the portrait of the idle person, “Yes, tonight’s words of holding the pearl also prove that The scroll pear has been hiding important clues, but she is a Hu person, how can she be related to the peach branch embroidery workshop in Yuezhou?”
Lin Chengyou thought about it back and forth, walked to the low bed and lay down on his back, he didn’t close his eyes for two nights, he was really tired and panicked: “I don’t want to think about it first, Heng Vertical Hong’s joining the army has not yet come, I will squint for a while.”
As soon as I closed my eyes, there was a knock at the door outside.
Lin Chengyou did not open his eyes: “What? “Some
people asked to see Lin and said that there were important things to be said.”
Lin Chengyou thought of hugging zhu, and his heart was twisted, what is the matter? Where are so many important things.
“No, let her roll.”
“The man said his surname was Wang, and he looked very anxious.”
Lin Chengyou rolled over and stayed: “Bring her up.” The
servant took the order and returned after a moment: “Lin Comment, the people are coming.” Lin Chengyou opened
the door and went out, and saw Teng Yuyi waiting in the corridor, the robe on her body was newly changed, her head was still wearing a decent head, her forehead was full of small beads of crystal sweat, and the strange smell was very fragrant.
He didn’t smell what it was, and glanced at her, “What’s the matter with me?”
Teng Yuyi decided to make a long story short: “I don’t think it’s quite right to hold the pearl.”
“Oh? What a wrong law. “On
the day of Qingzhi’s accident, I asked her and Curly Pear to sing in my room. I was curious about the cause of Qingzhi’s death, so I asked them about Qingzhi. At that time, there was a plate of cherry dried cherries in my room, and the beads were originally said to be good, but when I suddenly saw the cherry breasts, my look suddenly changed. I asked her what was wrong, and she said she saw cherry breasts and remembered something. I asked her what was going on, and she said she had bumped into Qingzhi stealing jewelry in a cherry.
“This is reasonable, I did not have any doubts, after holding the pearl left, I and the Absolute Saint Renzhi went to the Little Buddha Hall to find the Five Paths, catching up with the return of the Shizi, the Five Dao asked you about the case, I think what the Baozhu said is an important clue, I deliberately mentioned it in front of you, the Shizi does not seem to be surprised at all, it can be seen that you already know about this matter.” Dare to ask Your Highness the Prince of Shizi, when did Baozhu talk about this matter in front of you? Lin Chengyou vaguely guessed
what Teng Yuyi was wondering, and as soon as he found out that Qingzhi’s corpse was wrong that day, he and Yan Sizhi called the people in the building one by one to interrogate them, that is, that time, he heard about the cherry from the mouth of the bead.
He said: “She told me the morning that Qingzhi’s body was found.
Teng Yuyi said, “This is what I wondered, she told you about this in the morning, why did she lose her mind when she saw that plate of cherry breasts in the afternoon?” That’s
kind of interesting. Lin Chengyou pondered for a moment: “In the morning, she not only said it to me, but also described it in great detail, and if she saw a plate of cherry preserved cherries, it would not be shocking at first, unless…”
“Unless something else makes her lose her attitude.” Teng Yu was clear in her chest, “She deliberately used cherry and Qingzhi as a disguise to hide the real reason for her gaffe.”
Lin Chengyou was interested: “So what was Baozhu doing in your room at that time?” Is there anyone else in the room?
“Besides me, there are two trail chiefs.” When the cherry was presented, the words were almost finished, and I asked the rolling pear and the baozhu to play a “lotus picking song” for me, but the curly pear just got up, and the hugging bead was like seeing a ghost, that is, I repeatedly asked about it, and then I had the following words. To tell the truth, these words were seamless, and if I hadn’t happened to know that she had said something about Qingzhi in detail before, I wouldn’t have been suspicious at all. ”
The Lotus Picking Song”… Lin Chengyou groaned, this song was played by Teng Yuyi, and the beads began to play, and the gaffe should not be for this.
“What about outside the hallway?” He asked again, “Did anyone happen to pass by or talk loudly?”
Teng Yuyi shook his head: “I don’t remember exactly.” At that time, the two trail chiefs were also there, or should I go back and ask them again?
When he finished, he didn’t say a word.
Lin Chengyou waited for a while, seeing that Teng Yuyi did not say anything, he said, “Gone? ”
Teng Yuyi smiled and said, “Gone.”
But she had no intention of leaving, Lin Chengyou smiled secretly in her heart, and she knew that Teng Yuyi had nothing to do without ascending to the Three Treasures Hall.
Pretending not to know, he turned around and pushed the door: “Okay, I know this, the prince please come back.” As soon as his
hand reached the door frame, he heard Teng Yuyi smile and groan, “Shizi please stay.”
Lin Chengyou pretended to be surprised and looked back: “What else is the matter with the prince?” “Shizi
also saw it.” Teng Yuyi and Yan Yuexi, “I have dealt with the false mothers and prostitutes in the building a lot, and there are some things they may not be willing to tell you, but they will tell me frankly.” In the case of rolled pears and beads, I don’t even know how many scars there are on their bodies. Sometimes a sentence that they don’t have in mind is often an important clue.
Lin Chengyou pretended to listen carefully: “Go on.” “These
days, I have also listened to a lot of small talk, but somehow, some words are obviously in front of me, but I can’t remember it, the reasoning is not bad for my memory, I think about it, it can only be because I drank the fire jade linggen soup, the true qi is running around in the body, and the brain is also chaotic.”
“It makes sense.” Lin Chengyou nodded solemnly, “What is the prince going to do?” “If
Shizi has a prescription for Kehua, tell me quickly.”
He didn’t want to tell her that he was going into the palace to get Yu Yan Dan, and deliberately said, “Prescription? What prescription? Teng Yuyiqi
said, “Naturally it is the prescription for kehua fire jade linggen soup, and I have dealt with these people who are the most suspicious at present.” If I had turned the fire jade linggen soup earlier, I would have been able to think of important clues earlier.
Lin Chengyou smiled lowly, “Teng Yuyi, there is really yours, it is difficult for you to go around such a big bend, it was still for this.”
Teng Yuyi smiled brightly: “This is good for you and me, the murderer is cunning and abnormal, the prostitutes are pregnant with ghost fetuses, Shizi has been investigating for many days, still has no clue, if an outsider thinks of some key clues, maybe the truth can surface.” I just remembered that there was something wrong with the beads, which is one example.
Lin Chengyou jumped on his forehead.
Checked for a long time? Still clueless?
What did Teng Yuyi mean by this, did Ming Huang write “contempt” on his face?
Joke, why did she look down on him, the clues have been almost sorted out, the truth is nearly late, at the latest tomorrow morning he will catch the murderer out.
“I told you the method of kehua a long time ago.” He muttered, “Believe it or not. Instead of using some crooked brains, Teng Niangzi should calculate how many hours are left, it doesn’t matter if she practices or not, it is not good to have hot sores. At
this point, he turned around and pushed open the door, turned his head and looked at her again, “The prince is not leaving?” Teng Yuyi’s
teeth ached, and he turned around and went down the stairs.
These days, everyone is anxious to find the murderer, she is also involved in it, originally wanted to move to understand the reason, even if Lin Chengyou is stubborn.
In fact, she did not have to take shortcuts, but was worried that the two monsters would break in at any time, and she always suspected that Lin Chengyou had a better way to hide and not to say, so she asked this question. If there is really a medicinal soup, there is no need to worry about not being able to practice.
At this point, I was completely dead-hearted, and it seemed that I could only practice endlessly.
She smiled coldly in her heart: This vendetta is not a gentleman, Lin Chengyou, let’s walk and see.
As soon as Lin Chengyou returned to the house, he went straight to the desk, opened a certain volume, and brushed it up.
Yan Ji said in a warm voice, “Chengyou, didn’t you just say you were going to take a break?” “It’s
not over.” Lin Chengyou looked attentive, turned over one volume and picked up the next.
Yan Jizhi was a little confused, why did he suddenly refuse to rest?
He looked at the door curiously: “What did the prince come to you just now?” Lin
Chengyou had nothing to do to open his mouth, and the servant outside rushed up and knocked on the door: “Lin Comment, I have caught those Hu merchants who sell rotten heart grass.”
Lin Chengyou threw down something to open the door: “Did anyone bring it?”
“For the time being, they are all detained at Dali Temple.” Ya Gong wiped his sweat, “There are other cases on these people, Si Qing said that he was afraid that there would be chaos on the road, and he would not let him be escorted to Cai Feng Lou, but Si Qing had already interrogated several Hu merchants on behalf of Lin, just half a month ago, Cai Feng Lou did have someone buy rotten heart grass from Hu Shang, but at that time, Hu Shang did not have enough medicine powder in his hands, and finally failed to deal.”
Lin Chengyou: “Who?” Ya
Gong said, “Lady Ge Jian.”
Yan Ji was shocked: “Is it really her?”
“Ge Tuo’er was already disfigured at that time, and she did not come forward, only to Pingkangfang, a pippi named Tuotuo’er, who helped to pull the thread, Tuotuo’er did not buy the medicine powder, and then entrusted someone to send a message to Ge Jian Niangzi, and Ge Jian Niang only said that she knew, and did not say that she wanted to buy it again.”
Yan Ji was stunned for a long time, and slowly nodded, “Well, we have all been tricked by this Ge Towel.” Chengyou, just like you said, no one wants to kill Yao Huang sisters more than Ge Jian, and she deliberately made the scene where she misunderstood Wei Zi, just to clear her suspicions in public. Now that we have found out that she has deliberately bought rotten heart grass, can we arrest people?
Lin Chengyou took two thoughtful steps, it was true to say so, but with the murderer’s city government, would it buy rotten heart grass with great fanfare? Moreover, even if Ge Jian had a motive to kill Yao Huang’s sisters, what happened to the Tian couple?
Compared with the Yao Huang sisters, the Tian couple is the beginning of the murderer’s evil deeds, and only by understanding the murderer’s relationship with the Tian couple can we explain the evil Seven Man’s Guiding Seal.
He touched his chin and thought about opening his mouth, and another servant came up downstairs: “Hong joined the army.” Lin Chengyou’s
eyes lit up: “Please ask him to come up.” Hong Joinjun
is the Fa Cao military in Wannian County, who is responsible for the prison and trial of cases (Note), and the large and small cases in the county must first go through his hands, and all cases that cannot be broken in the county will be reported by him step by step. Although the official position is not high, it is quite famous in the community.
Hong Joinjun was born with a large waist and a round waist, walking with a tiger and a tiger, the hair on his face was like an upturned iron hook, and his teeth were white and shiny.
After he entered the house, he smiled and gave a gift: “The cases of the Tian couple and the Rong family are all investigated and handled by the lowly officials, this is the record at that time, one is the Rong family, the other is the Tian couple, Lin Comment and Yan Ji zhi want to hear which one first?”
Lin Chengyou invited him to sit down: “Let’s start with The Rong Clan first.” Hong joined
the army and sat down: “Rong Shi died on the second night of the first two days of October the previous year, no one reported the case that night, and the next morning Qi Shi sent someone to inform Li Zheng.” Beizhi had long heard that the Qi clan often abused the Rong family, suspecting that the death of the Rong family was related to her, but after checking it, the guys and neighbors said that they did not hear the Rong family’s cry for help on the night of the incident, and after the autopsy, they also found that the cause of Rong’s death was drowning. In addition, some people testified that yung had been in the days before his deathThe Son always wept to Yuzu, as if he had already saved his will to die.
Beizhi could not judge whether Rong Shi had committed suicide or was killed, so he had to report the matter to Dong Mingfu, who said that The Qi clan was not suspected enough, and Tian Yunde had no intention of pursuing it, plus the Rong clan had no relatives in Yuezhou, and there was no point in investigating it again. The lowly post had to close the case.
Yan Ji was surprised: “Tian Yunde did not pursue? The concubine suddenly disappeared, did this person not even react at all, where was he when Rong Shi died?
Hong Said: “Tian Yunde went to Yuezhou, and when he returned, he heard the news of Rong’s death, and he fell ill that night, perhaps because he was too ill and never pursued Rong’s death, but later Qi took some silver money and ordered his men to bury the body leader of rong’s body.”
“Yuezhou—” Lin Chengyou and Yan Ji were shocked.
Hong was stunned: “What’s wrong?”
Lin Chengyou asked with bated breath, “What did Tian Yunde do when he went to Yuezhou?”
“Go buy Aya.” I heard that in his early years, his family was poor and started by selling color. Although the business has become bigger and bigger in recent years, I still personally go to Yuezhou every year to select fabrics. It turned
out that Tian Yunde had been in contact with Yuezhou!
“Tian Yunde originally had a head wind, and after he fell ill, the medical workers said that it was caused by excessive sadness, and some medical workers said that they were scared of the disease, in short, the illness together was menacing.” Hong Junjun slowly recalled, “I don’t know what Tian Yunde is afraid of, day and night nightmares, according to the guys in the shop, Tian Yunde once fell ill and confused, suddenly opened his eyes and said that there was a ghost wandering in the courtyard, everyone listened, that is not Rong’s family, since then the haunted thing of the colorful parade has spread.” Lin Chengyou’s
expression changed slightly: “Wait, the haunted thing came out after Tian Yunde fell ill?”
“Yes, it was precisely because Tian Yunde was ill and always said that there were ghosts in the courtyard, Qi Shi specially ran to the well and scolded him several times, saying that ‘before he was born, he was charming and harmful, and after he died, he dared to make waves’, and then somehow, even Qi Clan was scared, and one day he ran to the nearby Qingguo Temple and asked for a charm to be pasted in the courtyard.”
Lin Chengyou seemed to be stunned, looking at the case file on the table motionlessly, thinking that the haunted was first, and Tian Yunde fell ill after, it seemed that it was all reversed.
Since the rumors of the haunting only spread after Tian Yunde returned, everything had to be covered from scratch.
First, Tian Yunde went to Yuezhou, and when he returned, he fell ill, just in time for the concubine’s accident, everyone thought that he was too sad, but Tian Yunde had no intention of pursuing the cause of Rong’s death, and even rong’s burial was ignored.
Will they all think wrong, Tian Yunde’s serious illness has nothing to do with Rong’s family, but with the trip to Yuezhou.
“How many days did Tian Yunde stay in Yuezhou before returning?”
Hong was stunned, and did not seem to expect Lin Chengyou to ask such a question. He was busy flipping through the records with his thick and short fingers, fortunately, he had verified Tian Yunde’s whereabouts.
“Oh, he left on August 27 and came back on the seventh day of October.”
Lin Chengyou narrowed his eyes, “It’s only been forty days.” From Chang’an to Yuezhou, it takes twenty days of work on the road, and since Tian Yunde wants to buy silk, how can he return just after arriving in Yuezhou? How long did it take him to go to Yuezhou in previous years, and did Hong join the army ever check it?
“This…” A hint of indifference appeared on Hong’s military face, “Humble and foolish, I didn’t inquire about Tian Yunde’s going to Yuezhou in previous years.”
“But…” he pondered, “when I went down to the shop for questioning, I heard a guy in the shop say, ‘Rong Shi died in the backyard like this, it was really going to scare people to death, fortunately, the main family came back early, otherwise the business in the store would not have been done.'” From this, it can be seen that Tian Yunde returned earlier than in previous years.
Lin Chengyou knocked on the table carelessly, Rong Shi died in the second year of the first year, Tian Yunde returned in the seventh grade, the news of death could not reach Tian Yunde’s ears so quickly, and his early return could only be for other reasons.
Did Tian Yunde encounter anything in Yuezhou, or who did he meet? This accident not only made him terminate his plan to buy cloth, but also made him sick after returning to Chang’an.
To make a prime-age man afraid to such an extent, that thing/that person must be no small feat.
Hong Joinjun added: “Tian Yunde died after two months of illness, the cause of death was aggravated by the head wind, and there have been two famous medical workers who have taken turns to diagnose him, and both of them can testify.” After the post-mortem examination, the county magistrate also said that the cause of Tian Yunde’s death was not suspicious. “What
about the Qi clan?”
“She hanged herself on the night of the third day after Tian Yunde’s death.” Hong’s look was slightly different, “I also wrote a strange letter before hanging myself.” “Where is
the letter?”
Hong was busy pulling out a piece of paper from underneath.
Yan Ji moved the candle straight to the front, only to see the cold hair on the back of the neck erect, the paper was densely packed with words, and every line was the same: I am a dog, not worthy of work; I’m a dog, I don’t deserve to live…
Lin Chengyou stared at the words on the letter: “Have you checked the handwriting?” “After
checking it, it is indeed Qi’s handwriting.”
Lin Chengyou turned over to see the back of the letter again, and as a person of the Qi family, he wanted to make her wake up and write such a letter, I am afraid that it is even more difficult than ascending to the heavens.
But if one can do magic, that’s a different story.
Lin Chengyou raised his eyes: “Hong joined the army to save this letter.”
