Ji Changge carefully flipped through the file, his face became more and more heavy, he still had reservations about Wen Jing's opinion before, but after reading the file, he suddenly felt that the three cases had a lot in common, maybe it was really done by one person, and suddenly, he found that a few pages in the file had been torn off.
"Qi Niang, when you look at it, is it the same?" Ji Changge pointed to the few remaining pieces of paper.
Wen Jing took the file, the traces were still very new, and she clearly remembered that the last time she looked at it, there were no traces of being torn off.
"It was torn off not too long ago, and it's still there the last time I watched it." Wen Jing said.
"And what do you remember writing on those pages?" Ji Changge then asked.
Wen Jing looked at the contents before and after, thought for a while, and shook his head: "The files of these two cases are very thick, and I can't remember what is written on these pieces of paper for a while. ”
"Only Uncle Nian has the key in the archives, and others can't enter and leave it at will, so they can call Uncle Nian." Ji Changge said to the guards beside him.
"Yes, sir."
"My lord, what is the matter with the villain?" Nian Bo still has the same wooden expression for thousands of years.
"Who has been in and out of the archives these days?" Ji Changge asked directly.
"Lord Hui, there are only Wen Pingshi and Ding Guard." Nian Bodao.
Ji Changge glanced at Nian Bo suspiciously: "There is no one else?" ”
Nian Bo shook his head: "No, the villain has never left the archives. The lock is also not broken. ”
"Alright, you go down." Ji Chang sang.
As soon as Nian Bo left, Ding Wu hurriedly walked in: "My lord, good news, we have caught that poor scholar and brought his parents with us." ”
Ji Changge's eyes lit up: "Bring them in quickly." ”
A guard brought in a young man with a disheveled hair from outside the door, followed by a middle-aged couple.
All three knelt on the ground at the same time.
"No, Cheng Shi knocked to see the adult." The sloppy man combed his loose hair, but there was no trace of panic in his eyes, and the old couple behind him turned pale with fright in comparison.
"Grass people, Cheng Dawu, knock to see your lord." Cheng Dawu stumbled. The expression on his face was very confused......
"The folk woman Cheng Li knocked to see the adult." Li Yue'e then said.
"Cheng Shi, where did you go on the thirteenth day of this month? What was done? Ji Ge stared at Cheng Shidao.
Cheng Shi's complexion changed, his face suddenly turned red, and he said, "I've been playing for a few days." ”
"Play? With whom? Can there be witnesses? ”
"Nope. In the next person to go. Cheng Shi looked away and said.
"Where have you been playing for so many days? Did you go treasure hunting in a cave? Ji Changge said with a smile. His eyes were firmly locked on Cheng Shi.
Cheng Shi hesitated twice. I can't seem to say why.
"You brute! Say it quickly! What do you say? ”
Cheng Shi's father suddenly rushed up and gave Cheng Shi a few slaps, and the two guards hurriedly pulled him away.
Cheng Shi held his head and still didn't say a word.
"You made an appointment with Miss He Yunxiu. Yes and no? Wen Jing looked at Cheng Shidao.
Cheng Shi looked at Wen Jing with a little consternation, his face was cloudy, and he seemed to be unable to guess how many hole cards Wen Jing had.
"She doesn't want to marry the husband her father arranged for her, what she likes has always been you, so you made an appointment to go together, go to a place where no one knows you, leave everything behind the past, and live like an ordinary couple, she sews and cooks, you write poems and paintings for her, and then you have a lovely child, and you also name him" Wen Jing said softly, looking at Cheng Shi's increasingly pale face.
Everyone was silent, there was silence in the public hall, only Wen Jing said this slowly, word by word, crisp as a big bead and a small bead falling on a jade plate, and the sound stirred people's hearts.
Cheng Shi suddenly laughed, laughed, and cried again: "Yes, we have fantasized about this picture many times, but unfortunately, she still didn't come to the appointment at the end, and she should already be Mrs. Lu at this moment." ”
"She's dead." Wen Jing looked at Cheng Shidao.
"What nonsense are you talking about?!" Cheng Shi was stunned for a moment, and suddenly pounced on Wen Jing, but was knocked to the ground by Ji Changge's palm, and after rolling on the ground twice, Cheng Shi got up again, and was immediately held down by two guards.
"Don't lie to me, Yunxiu is happy now, how can she die in front of me?!" Cheng Shi said with a hideous face.
Cheng Dawu and his wife looked at Cheng Shi with blood-red eyes in amazement, they had never seen such a son, and since He Yunxiu's disappearance, the rice shop was controlled by the people of the He family, they didn't know the news that He Yunxiu was dead, and they only heard Wen Jing say that they knew the reason why their family was arrested in Dali Temple.
"Miss Yunxiu is really dead?" Cheng Li muttered to herself, she had seen that girl, she never dared to expect this girl to be her daughter-in-law, she had always persuaded her son that they could not afford to climb the He family, and Master He would not agree to this family business, but she never thought that it would be such an ending
"Since Miss He didn't go to the appointment, where have you been these days?" Ji Changge continued to ask.
Cheng Shimuran raised his head, his eyes were a little sloppy: "I remembered Yunxiu in my heart, and as I walked, I got lost in the mountains and forests, until I met a hunter, and I was led out, and as soon as I arrived at the door, I was arrested by you." ”
Wen Jing was speechless, if He Yunxiu really left with this nerd, he would definitely be more than lucky, and the most useless thing was a literati, probably a scholar like Cheng Shi who could only study to death and had a negative ability to live.
"And such coincidences? When the dead are missing, you are missing, and when the dead are dead, you appear. ”
"Hehe, since you suspect me of being a murderer, then kill me too." Cheng Shi smiled, but it was more ugly than crying.
Cheng Dawu and his wife burst into tears: "Son, tell me honestly, did you kill the person?" ”
"Dad, mother, son is not filial," Cheng Shi said and suddenly hit the ground.
Ji Changge was shocked, and just wanted to reach out to grab him, but found that when he was still two fingers wide from the ground, he stopped again, and suddenly the corners of his mouth twitched twice.
"Bang Bang!"
Cheng Shi slapped himself four or five times in a row, and then cried loudly: "I'm really useless, I don't even dare to die, Xiu'er, I hurt you." ”
Wen Jing couldn't cry or laugh for a while, I don't know whether Lu Dao should sympathize with this Cheng Shi or be angry with him, the poor person must have something to hate, no wonder Lord He doesn't like this "son-in-law".
"Put him in the dungeon first." Ji Changge said to the two guards next to him.
"Yes, sir." The two guards carried Cheng Shi away like a chicken.
Ji Changge looked at Cheng Dawu and said, "Two old men, Ling Lang and Miss He Yunxiu discussed elopement?" Can you two know about it? ”
Cheng Dawu and his wife glanced at each other, and both nodded at the same time.
"Although Cheng Shi didn't tell us, but he has a habit of talking in his dreams, once he was heard by the grass people, the grass people and the child together, there is definitely no hope for the Ming media to marry, Master He has already sent someone to warn once, but" Cheng Dawu sighed and motioned to his wife to continue.
Cheng Li nodded: "Our old couple is just this one son, how can we bear to see that he doesn't have Miss Yunxiu, Shi'er will really die, so we pretended not to know the way, thinking that if they can go somewhere else to start over, they will also have a good marriage, but I didn't expect it."
The two old men kept wiping their tears, they naturally liked He Yunxiu very much, and they were also very sorry in their hearts, maybe they were not so selfish, Miss Yunxiu would not have to die, and her son would not have to be in prison
"On the thirteenth day, that is, the day Cheng Shi made an appointment with the deceased to elope, is there anything abnormal about Cheng Shi?" Ji Changge asked, and added: "Don't think about deceiving the official, maybe one sentence can save your son, and the same sentence can also hurt him." ”
Cheng Dawu nodded and said: "Shi Er looked very happy that day, packed up all the things, and went to the street to buy one of Yunxiu girl's favorite pastries, looking at him holding back a smile, we still didn't open our mouths in the end, just didn't see it, and let him go." ”
"Since the thirteenth, have you seen the process?"
Cheng Dawu and his wife both shook their heads.
"You go back and wait for the news first, and if you think of something, come to Dali Temple to find me." Ji Chang sang.
After Cheng Dawu and his wife left, Ji Changge glanced at Wen Jing: "Qi Niang, do you think this Cheng Shi is suspicious?" ”
Wen Jing shook his head: "It can be seen that he likes the dead very much, but this does not mean that he will not kill, he is not a fool, he is a genius, maybe both." ”
There may be only a thin line between a lover and a murderer, one thought is love, one thought is hate, if He Yunxiu didn't go to the appointment, or when she went to the appointment, she just told Cheng Shi that she couldn't go with him, when Cheng Shi was heartbroken, he made any outrageous moves, I'm afraid it's not impossible, those actions just now may just be that he disguised himself too well, Ji Changge thought in his heart, the most taboo thing to solve the case is to have a preconceived idea, the murderer is a very cunning person, just relying on Cheng Shi and Cheng Dawu's confessions.
"Ding Wu, go and check if the Orion that Cheng Shi said is indeed someone." Ji Changge faced Ding Wudao.
"Yes, sir." Ding Wu took the order and went out.
Looking at the sky, Wen Jing said to Ji Changge: "My lord, if there is nothing to do, I will take the first step." ”
Ji Changge nodded and asked casually, "Leave so early, but there is something at home?" ”
"It's okay, go to the Wang University Scholar's Mansion." After Wen Jing finished speaking, she turned around and walked towards the door, she could almost imagine Ji Changge's frozen expression, which made you laugh so happily just now.
Ji Changge smiled bitterly, is this a revenge for Fang Cai? (To be continued......)
