Chapter 170: New Clues
Man Jiangyan poured Gong Yunrui full of wine, with an incomprehensible smile on her face.
She was already beautiful, and when she laughed like this, she actually had a sense of charm, Gong Yunrui's brows frowned unconsciously, Man Jiangyan didn't smile before, and had a cold face, just like all killers.
But now she is smiling so much that people can't figure it out, so he can't figure it out, such a Man Jiangyan makes Gong Yunrui feel strange.
"The subordinates knew that this matter was reckless, but it was Gongzi's repeated tolerance of Luoxia Yuan that made them so arrogant.
I heard the blood fox say that this time the wooden fang suffered heavy losses, all thanks to Luoxia Yuan, and his subordinates did this to make him angry. β
"You think such an excuse can be justified?" Gong Yunrui roared: "Do you know how serious the consequences of this matter are?
Thirty-one lives, this matter has now reached the ears of the emperor, guess what will happen next, if Jing Zhaoyin can't successfully close the case, the emperor will let the military department try the case.
The military department Shangshu Quanzhi is notoriously not allowed to enter the oil and salt, if he finds out you and Qingfeng Building, my father and I have worked hard for so many years, but it will be completely ruined. β
The more Gong Yunrui spoke, the more angry he became, he slapped the table and glared at him, knocking over the wine glass on the table.
Man Jiangyan was indifferent, her expression didn't even move for half a minute, she got up, picked up the cup on the ground, poured another cup for Gong Yunrui, and said softly: "Why is the son so angry, and listen to what his subordinates say."
Although the subordinates want to be angry for the son, how can the subordinates not know the key point. Since his subordinates dare to do it, they have thought of a countermeasure to retreat. And it can also make the Ling family unable to eat and walk around. β
Gong Yunrui looked at her suspiciously: "What is your idea?" β
"Don't worry, Childe, this matter will be handed over to his subordinates, and Quanzhi said that it sounds like iron-faced selflessness. To say that it is difficult to hear is that he does not know how to be flexible, as long as he recognizes it, that is, the emperor will not move him.
If the murderer falls into his hands, he will never be able to escape; As for Wei Zheng, it is easier to deal with. β
Gong Yunrui's expression was cold: "You have to remember that this murderer is none other than you." β
Man Jiangyan was innocent and puzzled: "How can it be a subordinate." The subordinates were all in Qingfeng Building all night last night, and everyone here can testify; Master Wei can also testify, but his subordinates served him all night. β
Gong Yunrui's face turned cold. "What did you say?"
Man Jiangyan picked up the flute at hand, "In order to let the son eat to the fullest, my subordinates will play a song for the son." β
The distant and cold sound of the flute came out of the private room, and the sound rose all the way to the first floor.
Gong Yunrui looked at Man Jiangyan. The more doubts I have in my heart. This person seems to be no different from the Man Jiangyan he knows, but it is different everywhere.
For some reason, although the current Man Jiangyan satisfied him, he suddenly missed the cold-faced Man Jiangyan in the past.
"Didn't you say you wouldn't give a?" He asked lightly, picked up his chopsticks and took a bite of the dish.
Man Jiang smiled: "That was in the past, and my subordinates feel it now." Only Xiao Sheng is the most worthy of his subordinates. Only subordinates are worthy of it. β
Gong Yunrui didn't say anything more, ate two bites casually, got up and said, "It's best that things can go as you wish, otherwise you know the consequences." β
The smile on Man Jiangyan's face was momentarily moved, and he muttered: "My subordinates understand that life is better than death." β
Gong Yunrui left Qingfeng Building with an expressionless face.

Wei Zheng took Liangqi to the office, asked some basic questions according to the custom, and did not come up with any useful information, so he asked him to go back first.
After Liang Yi left, the official messenger stepped forward to report: "My lord, I found the husband who played last night, do you want to bring it to the front hall?" β
Wei Zheng immediately walked out: "Bring it over immediately." β
The husband was a thin young man, and he was brought to Wei Zheng by the official with a collar, and he was very frightened.
Wei Zheng patted the table and asked sharply, "You were in charge of the shift on Changye Street last night?" β
The husband knelt on the ground and shivered, and stammered: "Yesβit's a villain." β
"Did you hear or see any suspicious people?"
The husband became more and more frightened, and hurriedly shook his head in denial: "The villain didn't hear anything, saw nothing, and didn't know anything." β
"Presumptuous-" Wei Zheng slapped the table again, and said, "So many people died in Luoxia Yuan overnight, you actually said you didn't see it?"
If no one broke in, how did those people die?
They must have shouted for help before they died, and you didn't hear anything? Are you fooled when you are an official?
Say, why do you harbor the murderer, are you an accomplice of the murderer, or are these people killed by you at all? β
Where has the husband seen such a scene that makes him tremble, and he was so frightened that he lay on the ground and kowtowed and shouted injustice: "The adult is wronged, the villain is just a watchman, and Luoxiayuan has no grievances, why does the villain want to kill people."
What's more, with such a thin figure as a villain, I'm afraid that before I go in, I will be blasted out first. β
Wei Zheng was just scaring him, he knew that this husband was innocent, but he was afraid that he would see something and didn't dare to say it.
"I ask again, did you really see or hear anything?
If you cooperate with the official, the official will be rewarded, but if you don't say anything, and in the end let the official find out that this matter is related to you, then the official can only take you to prison for harboring criminals. β
The husband cried in fright, "My lord, the villain really didn't see anything, the rain was so heavy at that time, and the little one wore a hat again, and he stared at his feet all the way."
The villain only remembered that after dark, the villain went to Changshou Street to make a watch, and saw the good steward of Luoxia Yuan running out of the Ling Mansion, and it seemed that he had something urgent to do.
Except for this, everything was normal that night, begging the adults to be clear, what the small ones said was all the truth, and there was no half to hide. β
Good boils?! Wei Zheng pondered.
The person next to him reminded softly: "A month ago, the maid of the Ling Mansion had a dispute with Liang Yan. β
Wei Zheng's thoughts quickly turned, and he asked the husband to take him down first, and he got up and walked out.
The attendant followed and asked, "Where are you going?" β
Wei Zheng glared at him angrily: "Didn't you say that the Ling Mansion had a holiday with Luoxia Garden, where else can I go?" β
The entourage nodded again and again, and hurriedly walked forward to lead the horse for Wei Zheng.
After Liang Kai returned from the office, he went directly to the country of Bayin, thinking that he could see Ling Yi, but when he asked, he learned that the latter had gone out.
He knew that Ling Yi must have returned to the Ling Mansion, and he couldn't go back to Luoxia Garden, so he could only stop in the Eight Sound Kingdom.
Zou Quan knew that he was a little maid next to Tsuji Niang, and he didn't feel embarrassed, so he let him rest in the small house for the time being.
Ling Yi was thinking about whether to go back to the country of Eight Sounds as Tsuji Niang first, after all, she also knew that Liang Kai would go there to find herself when she came back, and besides, she was an excuse to come out to relax, and she couldn't disappear for too long.
But just as she was about to go out, the maid outside the second gate hurried to her yard.
"Miss, the official is here."
Ling Yi's heart moved, Wei Zheng came over at this time, he must have found something, or he thought he had found something.
Wei Zheng didn't know that she was Tsuji Niang, so why did she find Ling Mansion when something happened to Luoxia Yuan?
The only thing Ling Yi could think of was that he had a holiday with "Tsuji Niang", and that incident was very lively at the time, because Miss Ling Fu also donated 400 acres of land because of this, and became a living Bodhisattva like Tsuji Niang.
Ori Yu also thought of this, and her face turned slightly pale: "Miss-"
"Don't worry, don't panic, the soldiers will come to cover the water. Go, go out and meet him. β
Before Weaving Fan could react, he asked Weaving Yu in confusion, "How did Jing Zhaoyin find here?" β
Zhi Yu's heart was in turmoil, and he explained simply, seeing that Weaving Fan was worried, he hurriedly calmed her emotions: "Everything is with the eldest lady, don't mess up yourself."
Later, we will act as if we don't know anything, and we slaves and maids will talk less and listen to the eldest lady. β
The weaving fan nodded again and again, keeping up with Ling Yi's footsteps.
Jing Zhaoyin personally came to the door, and Ling Shandao and the Lan family naturally came out to meet each other.
Ling Shandao politely brought Wei Zheng to the living room and let people serve tea and snacks.
Wei Zheng hadn't eaten for a day, his stomach was hungry, and he was not restrained, while eating tea and snacks, he talked about the tragedy of Luoxiayuan.
"I really didn't expect that there would be someone at the feet of the Son of Heaven who would dare to commit such a blatant murder, which is simply not taking the Son of Heaven in his eyes."
Ling Shandao also sighed and shook his head: "There are unforeseen circumstances in the sky, people have misfortunes and blessings, and this catastrophe in Luoxia Garden is really shocking." β
Wei Zheng glanced around the people in the house, and said strangely: "Why didn't you see Mrs. Ling?" β
"Madame, she is pregnant, and this kind of occasion is not suitable for coming out."
Wei Zheng nodded: "Yes, such a bloody thing, you have to stop the mouths of the subordinates, don't frighten Madame." β
He asked again: "The eldest lady hasn't seen it either, I'm afraid I'm too scared to go out." β
Ling Yi walked into the living room with a smile, "Hearing Lord Wei say this, it seems that I shouldn't have come out, I should have hid in the house." β
Wei Zheng looked back and said happily: "Hey, Miss Ling, I thought I was the housewife when I looked at it, this housewife's demeanor is already full, and the Ling Mansion is really well educated." β
Ling Yi stepped forward and said with a humble smile: "Lord Wei, don't make fun of me, my little girl's family knows everything, it is my grandmother who supervises and manages it." β
Seeing that there was not much left to eat in front of Wei Zheng, he ordered someone to serve another plate.
Wei Zheng was a little embarrassed, "I haven't eaten all day, it's rude." β
Ling Yi bowed slightly, and came to sit down next to Lan.
Lan Shi smiled at Ling Yi before asking Wei Zheng, "Jing Zhaoyin come here, it shouldn't be as simple as eating a few pieces of dim sum and chilling it." β
Wei Zheng put down the unfinished snack in his hand and arched his hand: "The old lady is very smart, in fact, Wei Zheng has learned some clues and wants to come to Shunteng to check it." β
Lan's smile was faint: "The investigation of the case found that our Ling Mansion is here, presumably this clue is also related to our Ling Mansion." β
Wei Zheng smiled coldly and looked at Ling Yi: "Xia Guan heard that a month ago, Miss Ling's slave and maid had a quarrel with the steward of Luoxia Garden, I don't know if this matter is true?" (To be continued......)
