Wei was a little sad when she heard the news, Qiu Xiang married Wu Liang was her consent, if Wu Liang was really Qiu Xiang's victim, she would also feel uneasy. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

He Linwan saw what Wei was thinking, and said: "Mother doesn't have to take the blame on herself, Wu Liang may not have been killed by Qiu Xiang." ”

Wei thought that He Linwan wanted to comfort himself, so he shook his head and said, "I heard your father say that although Wu Liang doesn't like to talk and looks a little wooden, he treats people generously and never makes enemies with others. Who would kill such a man for no reason?"

He Lin said later: "I heard the news from Chunxiao that Wu Liang was cut by someone, and this kind of neat killing method is by no means something that a weak woman like Qiu Xiang can do." ”

Wei thought for a while: "Maybe Qiu Xiang dizzed Wu Liang with medicine before starting?"

He Linwan shook his head: "Chunxiao said that there was blood everywhere in the house, and Wu Liang definitely didn't lie motionless on the bed and had his throat cut." And the force of the person who attacked him must be above him, so he chose such a relatively difficult way to commit murder when Wu Liang was sober. ”

Wei pondered for a moment and felt that what He Linwan said was very reasonable.

The results proved that what He Linwan said was indeed correct.

In the evening, He Guanglie came back and brought back the news: Chunxiang had been found.

After visiting the scene of the murder, he sent someone to find Haruka's whereabouts, but found her in an inn in the city, where she was sleeping in bed.

Chunxiang was stunned when she heard the news of Wu Liang's killing, and seemed to be a little unconvinced, until after sending her back, Chunxiang was so frightened that she fainted on the spot when she saw the blood all over the room.

He Guanglie said: "There are traces of a fight at the scene, Wu Liang was not killed by Qiu Xiang." ”

He Linwan asked, "Why is Qiu Xiang in the inn?"

He Guanglie frowned when he heard this, he thought of Qiu Xiang's expression when he asked Qiu Xiang this question.

Although He Guanglie was puzzled, he didn't say it, shook his head and said, "I don't know, she didn't say it." ”

He Linwan glanced at He Guanglie: "Where is Qiu Xiang now?"

He Guanglie said: "Although it was preliminarily judged that Chunxiang was not the murderer according to the traces present, her behavior was suspicious, and she may have something to do with this murder, so she was finally taken away by the people of the Yamen." ”

He Linwan frowned, and confirmed to He Guanglie, "She was taken away by Xue Xingyi's people?"

He Guanglie bowed: "He is the parent official of Penglai County, and if there is a murder, he is naturally responsible for the interrogation." This Lord Xue has solved several difficult cases in recent years, and he may be able to find the real culprit soon. ”

He Linwan pursed her lips and said in a low voice: "I always feel that things are not so simple. ”

He Linwan felt that this case was handed over to Xue Xingyi, maybe it would make waves on the ground!

He Linwan's speculation was confirmed again, and early the next morning, someone from the yamen asked He Guanglie to go for questioning.

He Guanglie looked at the two officers in official uniforms and was very puzzled: "What are you asking me to ask?

The messenger said: "Lord He, last night Lord Xue interrogated overnight, and asked some things from the mouth of the woman named Chunxiang, because these things are somewhat involved with Lord He, so Lord Xue asked us to invite Lord He to go to the yamen." ”

He Guanglie was a little inexplicable: "Is it involving me? What is it that involves me? This Chunxiang used to be the maid in my house, didn't I make it clear yesterday?"

"This ...... The specific situation is not clear to the small ones, why don't you take a trip with the small ones and ask Lord Xue in person?"

Although He Guanglie felt strange, Wu Liang was his subordinate after all, and now that he had died unexplained, he also wanted to solve the case as soon as possible. If he can help with anything, he will naturally not refuse.

He Guanglie went out with the two servants.

He Guanglie was taken to the Penglai County Mansion, he sat in the lobby for a long time and no one came out, He Guanglie was waiting a little impatiently when an errand officer appeared.

"Please come with the little one. ”

He Guanglie flicked his robe and didn't get up: "Where are you going?"

The messenger said, "Our lord invites Lord He to go to the prison to see a prisoner. ”

"Isn't the murderer caught yet?" He Guanglie frowned.

The messenger made a gesture of please: "Please come with the little one, the adult is already waiting for you." ”

He Guanglie thought about it, but got up and followed the errand officer.

The big prison of the county government is built under the government office, it is a dungeon, He Guanglie felt a little breathless as soon as he walked in, and the damp and impermeable space was filled with the smell of sweat, blood, urine and some strange and indistinguishable smells, even He Guanglie, who stayed in the barracks all year round, was a little unbearable.

The cells here are cramped, with more than a dozen people in each cell. The messenger did not stop in front of any of the cells, but took He Guanglie directly to the execution cell.

The room was full of all kinds of tools, He Guanglie glanced at it and sneered: "What does this mean?"

At this time, a voice said: "Lord He, don't be angry, I invited you here today just to investigate the case." ”

He Guanglie looked back and saw that it was Yang Jing who came in from Donglin Mansion. Behind Yang Jing were two errand guards holding a prisoner in prison uniform. The prisoner had already been tortured, his exposed hands and feet were bloody, and his prison clothes were also soaked in blood, and he seemed to be unconscious at the moment, with his head bowed, and his face could not be seen clearly with his long hair covered his face.

He Guanglie bowed his hand: "I thought it was Xue County Commander who invited me here, but it turned out to be Lord Yang! Hasn't Lord Yang always only been in charge of the affairs of the state capital? How could he come to the county government to inquire about a murder case?"

Yang Jing waved his hand, and the two servants threw the prisoner in their hands to the ground, and the prisoner let out a faint moan.

"The same is the same thing of loyalty, and it is the same everywhere. Does Lord He recognize this person?" Yang Jing sat down on the only Taishi chair in the torture room, pointed to the prisoner on the ground and asked.

The officer stepped forward and ruffled the prisoner's hair, revealing a face that looked dying.

He Guanglie couldn't help but be stunned when he saw the face of the prisoner clearly: "This is ...... Autumn fragrance?"

It must be a good girl who can be picked by Mrs. He and sent all the way to He Guanglie as a room, but where can Qiu Xiang still see a little beautiful appearance at this moment?

Qiu Xiang groaned and opened her eyes, and when she saw He Guanglie clearly, her already dull and gray eyes suddenly burst into bright light, and she raised her hand to grab the hem of He Guanglie's clothes: "Master...... Have you come to my rescue?"

Yang Jing looked at the reactions of the two and smiled slightly: "It seems that Lord He and the prisoner are indeed acquainted, so the official can rest assured." ”

He Guanglie ignored Qiu Xiang, he looked at Yang Jing, who was sitting there with something to say, and his face turned cold: "What does Lord Yang mean by this? She was originally my family's maid, and I confessed when I handed her over to you! Moreover, the evidence at the scene at that time had already shown that the person who killed Wu Liang was not Qiu Xiang, why did you call her a criminal and use torture!"

Yang Jing said: "This official naturally has a reason to torture her! Although Wu Liang was not killed by her, she is an accomplice!"

He Guanglie sneered: "Oh, where is the real murderer?"

Yang Jing glanced at He Guanglie meaningfully: "Who is the real murderer, it will soon be revealed!"

He Guanglie sneered: "Is your method of investigating the case to extort confessions by torture? I have opened my eyes today!"

Yang Jing waved his hand: "The method of interrogation is not important, as long as the facts of the case can be clarified." What's more, this Wu Tang has already confessed, and the reason why she sent her mother-in-law at home that day and went to the inn was to make an appointment with her concubine for a private meeting. ”

A bad premonition surged in He Guanglie's heart: "Who is her concubine?"

Yang Jing looked at He Guanglie and said leisurely: "It's you." ”

He Guanglie laughed angrily when he heard this: "Lord Yang, you didn't get kicked in the head by a donkey, did you?"

Yang Jing squinted his eyes slightly, and snorted coldly: "Lord He, is it true that this Wu Tang clan used to be your roommate before marrying Wu Liang?"

He Guanglie said coldly: "The elders don't dare to resign, I haven't touched her." ”

Yang Jing continued: "Then after the Wu Tang clan and Wu Liang got married, do you still have anything to do with it?"

He Guanglie rolled his eyes: "I really want to have something to do with it, why should I marry her to my subordinates!"

Yang Jing touched his short beard and smiled: "It's not uncommon for some people to have strange preferences. You said that you had nothing to do with her and Wu Liang after they got married, but someone saw you pulling and pulling on the street, does Lord He want my heir card?"

He Guanglie suddenly remembered the last time Qiu Xiang was a street fence and his horse, and he couldn't help but scold his mother in his heart.

Yang Jing looked at He Guanglie's face, and looked confident: "Does Lord He still want to quibble?"

He Guanglie said impatiently: "Don't talk about those unwarranted things! Just tell me your intentions, Lord Yang! You are such a big Buddha today to be in this small county office, I'm afraid it is for me, right? What kind of crime do you want to put on me? Colluding with the Wu Tang clan to kill me?"

......

He Guanglie walked like this for a day, and he didn't come back at night, Wei was so worried that he didn't sleep all night, and the next morning, Wei sent someone to the yamen to inquire about the news, but he didn't inquire about anything. In the end, it took a lot of money to learn from a servant that the general judge was personally interrogated yesterday, but no one knew why He Guanglie didn't come out.

Seeing that the Wei family was so anxious that he couldn't even eat, He Linwan thought for a while and said, "Mother, don't worry, the people we sent may not understand the doorway in the yamen." In this way, I will go to the people of the Zhao family to help, the Zhao family has a foundation in the east, and businessmen usually have to deal with the yamen, so they are very familiar with the things in the yamen. ”

When Wei heard this, he immediately said, "Then you can go, but is Zhao Jiaken willing to help with this?" )
