"Of course I know, Zhu Da eats and drinks all day long...... Gambled. Mi Dalang was very careful, looked at Liansheng out of the corner of his eyes, and swallowed the word prostitution alive.

Yu Shizhao smiled eatingly, Lian Sheng glared at him, and motioned for Mi Dalang to continue.

"He works as a stableman under the dominatrix of the He family, how can he have all those spare money to squander, he usually mingles in various places, can talk little, often brings customers to small shops, and earns a few bucks."

Mi Dalang is very tall, but the face is kind, this Qingyuan County is the intersection of the three provinces, there are many merchants, he opened an inn, pay attention to harmony and wealth to see people smile, for a long time, the corners of the mouth smile lines are profound, it always looks like a smile.

Lian Sheng turned to look at Yu Shizhao and asked respectfully, "The little one is asking on the side, will it disturb the adults' meals?" It's better to go back to the county government first with the small rice shopkeeper. ”

Although Liansheng has only been in the Great Shun Dynasty for six years, the orphanage where he once lived in another world has always received a relatively strict traditional education, and he knows that he does not speak or sleep, not to mention listening to the murder case while eating here.

Yu Shizhao shook his head: "My lord, I can eat the grass when I look at it, you ask." ”

Mi Dalang couldn't help but tremble in his heart: This Lord Jinyiwei is not easy to mess with.

Yu Shizhao seemed to see Mi Dalang's thoughts, smiled hehe, and poured himself a drink: "Mi Dalang, your body is quite strong, and your face looks a little darker, and it is considered firm." This skin is completely removed to make a fan or screen, which is excellent. ”

Mi Dalang raised his arm to wipe his sweat, the corners of Liansheng's mouth were crooked, and he glanced at Yu Shizhao with a smile: This Lord Yu will also attack his heart, not bad, not bad.

"Rice shopkeeper, the commander is the same, but as long as you don't do anything wrong, don't be afraid. All you have to do is answer my questions truthfully. ”

"Yes, yes, yes, the little one understands."

"This Zhu Da was killed, have you heard?"

"When the Lord Jinyi Wei brought the little one here, the little one knew."

"Oh, were you surprised to hear that?"

"That's not the case. This Zhu Da usually does all kinds of mischievous behavior, and nothing happens to such a broken house. ”

"So, you know him well."

"The small inn is a business that comes and goes, and everyone has to come into contact with it."

"You're right, so Zhu Da ate wine in your store yesterday?"

"Don't just eat wine, this guy is a monkey who climbs the pole, brought two decent silk merchants at noon last year, the little one is eating and called him to have a drink together, that Zhu Da finished eating, and went to the hot spring pool in the small store for a long time, don't look at the guy is a splash, he will really enjoy it." Mi Dalang shook his head and sighed: "The little one was busy at the time, and I didn't pay attention to when he left, if I found out earlier, I would have stopped him and didn't call him away." Maybe it could save his life. ”

"This is also a life for everyone, and you can't force it." Liansheng also sighed: "The so-called people have good and bad luck, and the moon is cloudy and sunny, I remember that there was an extremely tragic thing in our county three years ago. ”

When Mi Dalang heard three years ago, his eyes flashed and then returned to calm.

Lian Sheng caught the look in his eyes, put on an extremely sincere look and said, "I remember that it was the autumn of three years ago, and after a few autumn rains, a lot of mushrooms grew in the mountains and forests around our county. ”

Yu Shizhao poured himself a drink, ate very happily, and when he heard Liansheng suddenly tell the story, he put down the wine glass with great interest.

"The lady and son of the shopkeeper, oh, was the child ten or eight years old at the time?"

Mi Dalang replied in a dumb voice: "Eight years old." ”

"The poor lady of the Mi family took the little brother of the Mi family and went to the mountains to pick mushrooms with a basket, and she didn't come back when it was dark, and the shopkeeper of the Mi family reported the case to the yamen at that time."

"Yes. The next day, they found the clumsy bloody clothes in the back mountain, alas, it was also their mother and son's bad fate, how could they have thought that they would be buried in the wolf's belly. Liansheng reminded Mi Dalang of his sad past, he looked sad, raised his hand and wiped the moist corners of his eyes.

Suddenly, a jasper pendant appeared in front of him, and Liansheng asked loudly, "Is this your object?" ”

Mi Dalang was sad at the moment, shook his pendant in front of his eyes, nodded and said: "Exactly, this pendant is our family and has been passed down for generations." ”

"So, where are you yesterday before the time comes?"

"Take account in the backyard of the store."

"There may be witnesses"

Mi Dalang frowned and shook his head: "Since the accident three years ago, I have lived alone in the backyard, and no one can testify. ”

"Where did you go after counting the ledgers?"

"At that time, I was suddenly in a bad mood, so I went straight from the backyard to the forest path in the back mountain for a walk."

"Still no one testifies?"

"I didn't meet anyone else in the mountains and forests."

"It's dinner time, and you don't eat dinner and go out for a walk alone? Can the rice shopkeeper always have such a Yaxing? ”

Mi Dalang smiled bitterly: "Occasionally, there are very few ordinary things, but the weather was too stuffy yesterday, and I didn't find it in my heart." ”

"In this case, why did your Mi family's pendant appear at the scene of Zhu Da's murder?"

"Oh, I think it may have been dropped when passing by, who knows when it fell, and thank the girl for returning the pendant to the little one."

Liansheng stared at Mi Dalang without blinking: "You're lying!" ”

"The villain never lies, everything is true."

"You said that you reconciled accounts in the backyard and went for a walk in the mountains with a calm face and no memory at all. Most people tell what happened, most of them will pause slightly, and look up, showing that they are thinking about it, and your answer is too smooth, too fast, and too calm. These questions, you must have thought about it countless times and simulated it countless times when you were alone at home last night, right? ”

Liansheng stared into Mi Dalang's eyes, and there was a clear flash of panic in the latter's eyes.

"There are too many people who deal with the small inn all day long, and the conversation is natural and smooth when dealing with people, and the villain's memory has always been very good, but it is a matter of one or two days, even a few years ago, it is not difficult for the villain."

"Can you remember what happened a few years ago? Not bad at all? ”

"Not bad at all."

Yu Shizhao listened to Liansheng's little question, and suddenly felt that this little girl seemed to have other plans, she began to ask as if she was rambling, but when the shopkeeper was depressed, she suddenly took out the pendant, which was really interesting.

"Well, you know that my brother is Yang Zhutou."

"Little nature knows."

"My brother was in charge of the case of your mother and son who disappeared three years ago."

"Yes, Yang Zhutou is very gracious, and the small one is still grateful."

"The Yang family is a family of fast catchers, and it is also a hobby of mine to read various case files since I was a child." Liansheng looked at the rice shopkeeper, and his eyes flashed with a cunning light.

"It just so happens that I have also read the records of your report, and you said that you have an excellent memory, and I think my memory is also very good, I remember that you came to report the crime at that time, saying that your son was an eight-year-old childish child, wearing a brown cloth coat, carrying a silver lock plate for a long life and a monkey pendant that was not respectful. Your memory is really good, you can tell your son's appearance, clothing and accessories clearly, my brother found your lady's bloody clothes and a shoe in the back mountain, and found a silver lock with blood stains in the grass, and at that time I thought that I had met a wolf and was eaten clean, so where did this pendant go? Did you find it later in the grass? Or was it pulled out of the wolf's belly? Mi shopkeeper, your good memory, it seems that there is really a problem. ”

Mi Dalang hurriedly nodded: "That's the case, the little one later went to the back mountain, and found it in the grass, this is the ancestral thing of the small family, the little one can't let go of it, and he searched everywhere, and the hard work paid off and was finally found by me." ”

"Smack!" Lian Sheng slapped the table, and Yu Shizhao was taken aback by her.

"Okay, even if you found it later, then let me ask you, why is this pendant in the hands of the Hu family!"

"In hand? Isn't it the place where Zhu Da was killed? ”

"That's me tricking you, this pendant was caught by the Hu family, it was the owner of this pendant who got up to his senses, and took advantage of the lack of people in the Yang family's side courtyard at noon, raped the Hu family, and then killed the Hu family!"

"No, no, I'm not me!" Mi Dalang's green muscles were exposed: "I didn't do it, it's Zhu Da, it's Zhu Da, a shameless villain!" This pair of adulterers and adulteresses! ”

Yu Shizhao stroked his palms and laughed when he heard this.

The brocade guard standing at the door was still expressionless, like a door god.

"Good! It's Zhu Da! Liansheng stretched out his hand and pointed at Mi Dalang and asked, "How do you know it's Zhu Da?" Because you were there, weren't you? You see it! ”

After Liansheng saw the little millet rice character on the pendant, and heard Liu Zhutou say that it was a gadget worn by a child, he suddenly thought of where he had heard of this pendant. Thinking about it carefully, three years ago, the shopkeeper reported the disappearance of his wife and children, and mentioned this pendant when describing the clothing, hairstyle, and accessories of his wife and son at that time. This cleverness made the picky Yu Shizhao can't help but admire: Well done!

The shopkeeper stood there with his back straight.

Just now, Liansheng asked a question, he already seemed very tired and stood loosely, and when it came to the case of Hu's murder at this moment, he suddenly straightened his body, and the corners of his mouth were pursed, showing a full attitude of resistance and non-cooperation.

"You don't want to answer me?"

Liansheng turned around and smiled at Yu Shizhao: "Lord Commander, the current body language of the shopkeeper tells me that he is very resistant and does not want to cooperate, so it seems that only Jinyiwei's prison and torture are more in line with his appetite." ”

The first time Yu Shizhao saw this girl smile, he only felt like a spring breeze, like walking in the peach forest with the bright sunshine, watching the peach blossoms burning, particularly moving, he was slightly stunned, shook his fan and said: "That's nature, how can I let go of this good skin." Adult, I skinned people, but it took a lot of effort, first to give him a good meal, raise white and fat, wash and peel clean, pour a bucket of water on him, and clean up the intestines and stomach. ”

"Why is that, sir?"

Liansheng deliberately sang and harmonized with him.

Although the shopkeeper showed an indifferent look on his face, his eyes were motionless, and he obviously listened carefully.

"This whole person has to be peeled from the top of his head, this person hurts so badly that all the and urine come and he dies. Rinse it first for this reason, the knife goes down, little by little, and in the end it hurts the most to the heart of the foot, and the prisoner keeps struggling, and it is inevitable that the skin will be damaged. My lord, I learned later, before peeling the skin, I first nailed this person's hands, feet, limbs and limbs to the ground, so that he could not move, and finally the whole skin came down, this person was like a blood gourd, still alive, haha. ”

"Have you sprinkled some salt on this blood gourd, it must be good to dry the dried meat."

"Wonderful, wonderful! I didn't expect that the big pile of human flesh was buried directly It's a pity, it's better to dry the meat and give it to the dogs of the adults' families to eat. ”

With a pop, Mi Dalang collapsed to the ground, gasping for breath: "I recruited everything, I didn't kill the people, they were all done by Zhu Da, Zhu Da bragged when he ate wine, saying that there was a good friend, and the little one was afraid that he would hurt a good girl, so he quietly followed him behind, not wanting him to come to Hu's place, the two of them started to do that, the little one just followed and saw it outside the window, and the rest was unknown." ”

"Could it be that Zhu Da killed people in a passion?"

Liansheng muttered to himself.

"Passion? What is it? ”

Yu Shizhao found that once the case was mentioned, the little girl came out of her mouth with fresh words that she had never heard before.
