When Li Kuan returned to his residence, Wu Meiniang had been waiting silently in the hall for a long time.

Li Kuan didn't take Qing'er out with him, what would a few men do?

Wu Meiniang Bingxue is smart, how could she not think of it?

"Lord Wang, you're back."

Although there were all kinds of dissatisfaction in her heart, but when she said it, Wu Meiniang returned to her former elegance.

"Mei Niang, you haven't slept yet, what's the matter, are you still thinking about that Gu girl?"

Although Li Kuan went to Qunfang Courtyard today, he didn't even touch the girl's little hand, so he naturally didn't feel weak, but gloated very much about Wu Meiniang's joke.

"Which pot is not opened, which pot is not opened, Lord Wang, if you are like this again, Mei Niang will not go to Jiangdu County tomorrow to try the case, I might as well wait here for you to come back."

"Don't, but I look at that Gu girl, but she has an extraordinary attachment, I guess you will have trouble in the future."

"Hmph, it's a big deal, let me tell her that I'm also a daughter."

Wu Meiniang glared at Li Kuan with disgust.

I dressed as a man, not to help Li Kuan, but now this guy is actually watching jokes on the side.

"What if people like you as a daughter?"

Wu Meiniang: ......

"Ahem." Wang Xuance felt that he was not suitable to stay in the hall, "Lord Wang, then I'll go back to the room first." ”

As for Xi Junmai and Wang Xuanwu, they have already developed the ability to listen to the right ear with their left ear.

Otherwise, how could Li Kuan let the two of them protect him at any time?

"Mei Niang has only heard that some Lang Jun in Chang'an City is as good as Longyang, and she has never heard of women like this."

"Men can do it, but why can't women?"

Li Kuan thought of so many lala in later generations, and he didn't feel that Wu Meiniang's question made any sense at all.

"Lord, it's not early, it's time to rest, I'll go back to my room."

Wu Meiniang was in no mood to talk to Li Kuan anymore.

This guy is really annoying today.

Of course, she was also a little worried about whether what Li Kuan said would be true.

It stands to reason that there are still a lot of flaws in my female dress as a man, and if you look closely at it, you can still see something.

However, I'm afraid that Gu Panpan has clearly seen it, and it's still ......

It's scary!

I, Wu Meiniang, am not afraid of anything, but I really haven't encountered this kind of thing.

The little heart can't stand it, can't stand it!

……

The next day, Li Kuan took Wu Meiniang and Wang Xuance to Jiangdu County as usual.

"His Royal Highness the King of Chu, the recent backlog of cases in this county government has basically been tried, and the lower officials really want to thank His Highness for the people of Jiangdu, and thank Wu Langjun and Wang Steward."

In the hall of the county government, after Wu Meiniang broke two trivial cases again, Gu Lian breathed a sigh of relief and talked to Li Kuan.

"Gu County Order, something is wrong, Majiazhuang is a big thing."

Without waiting for Li Kuan to say a few polite words to Gu Lian, a servant hurriedly came in from outside.

"In the public court, how can you break in in so panic?"

Gu Lian reprimanded unhappily, "What's wrong?" ”

"That Majiazhuang, there was a big case of destroying the door, and someone just came to the county government to report the case."

"A big case?"

When Gu Lian heard this, his face turned pale.

I haven't been able to encounter this kind of case for a few years, so why did I let myself run into it?

The point is that this dethroned His Royal Highness the King of Chu was by his side, and such a bad case happened under his rule.

What will this make His Royal Highness the King of Chu think?

I'm afraid I'll have to get an inferior grade in my performance appraisal this year, right?

"Gu County Order, let's go, let's go to the scene together."

Li Kuan's mood at this time was a little complicated.

On the one hand, there are many cases, which is definitely good for his points.

But he was also worried that if he really let the bloody case that should not have happened because of his butterfly, then his sin would be great.

Forget it, after solving this case, I left Yangzhou.

Majiazhuang is not very far from Jiangdu County, and it didn't take long for the group to come to Majiazhuang.

"Wu Zhao, you wait at the door first."

Since it is a murder case, the scene inside will definitely not be very beautiful.

After leaving and thinking about it, I still let Wu Meiniang wait outside.

Although in this era, both men and women, young and old, seem to see life and death more thoroughly, Li Kuan still feels that female compatriots are not suitable for entering.

"That'...... Then I'll go to Zhuangzi and ask to see if there is any other news. ”

Wu Meiniang did not act recklessly, but in order not to make herself look so strange, she chose to go to Zhuangzi to find out the news.

"His Royal Highness the King of Chu, this is Ma Laohan's home, shall we go in?"

Gu Lian didn't think it was strange when he saw Wu Meiniang go to Zhuangzi with two guards to ask the villagers.

Perhaps, this is Wu Langjun's own unique case-solving skills.

"Let's go, let's go and have a look first, but try not to destroy the scene, otherwise it will not be conducive to the detection of the case."

Although Li Kuan doesn't know how to solve the case, he still knows the basic things of protecting the crime scene after watching too many TV movies and movies.

"Lord be careful."

Seeing Li Kuan taking the lead, Wang Xuanwu and Xi Junmai hurriedly followed.

Li Kuan is also a person who came down from the battlefield, and he is also used to some bloody scenes.

Therefore, when I entered Ma Laohan's house, I saw a person lying in a pool of blood, and I didn't feel any discomfort.

"His Royal Highness the King of Chu, Gu County Order, this old man was obviously killed with a sharp weapon, and there is a deep knife mark on his neck."

The county lieutenant of Jiangdu County, with a few officials and servants, stepped forward to take a brief look and came to a conclusion.

Along the way, everyone also listened to some of the situation of today's case, although the information told by the reporter was very fragmentary, but several people died in Ma Laohan's family, and this matter was still made clear.

Ma Laohan's house is not very big, but it is not small, and the courtyard with two entrances is also a mansion in Majiazhuang in Jiangdu County.

Under the leadership of Li Zheng, Li Kuan and his party came to the bedroom, where two more bodies were found.

"This one is Ma Laohan's daughter-in-law."

After a few glances at it, he said with certainty.

"His Royal Highness the King of Chu, Gu County Order, Ma Laohan's daughter-in-law has no scars all over her body, but her face is purple and her eyes are bulging, but there is a clearly visible mark on her neck, which was obviously suffocated by someone with a rope."

The county lieutenant of Jiangdu County also has a few brushes.

Without waiting for an autopsy, he had his own judgment.

"Is this male corpse the son of Ma Laohan? Not really. ”

Li Kuan couldn't help but be puzzled.

Ma Laohan's family is all farming, and his son is a farmer, so normally he should be rude.

But the corpse in front of him turned out to be like a white-faced scholar, with fine skin and tender flesh.

And the scholar didn't have the slightest scar all over his body, but his face was a little red, and there were faint traces of blood in his ears, nose and throat.

"This ...... I haven't seen this little old man before. ”

Li Zheng circled around the male corpse several times, but still didn't recognize who he was.

"His Royal Highness the King of Chu, Gu County's order, another male corpse was found in the kitchen."

At this moment, other officials trotted over to report the new situation.

"Let's go, let's go over and have a look!"

Li Kuan couldn't help but be a little curious about this case.

What is the situation that the murderer actually wants to do such a cruel thing?

Vendetta?

Love killing?

I don't have a clue at the moment.

"This is Ma Laohan's son, and I saw him go to the countryside to buy things a few days ago."

This time, Li Zheng recognized it at a glance.

"The son of this old man was stabbed five times in the abdomen with a sharp weapon, one of which hit the heart! This should be the cause of death. ”

After a brief inspection, the county lieutenant came to a conclusion again.

Ma Laohan's family of three is now dead in their own home, and there is an unknown corpse here.

This case reveals a strange feeling.

"Gu County Order, you arrange for a good autopsy to see if there are any other findings. Let's go around the Zhuangzi and see if we can find out anything. ”

Professional things are left to professional people to do.

Although Li Kuan has seen a lot of the cruel scenes on the battlefield, it does not mean that he likes to watch such pictures.

"You can introduce the situation of Ma Laohan's family again."

Out of the gate, Li Kuan said to Li Zheng on the side.

"His Royal Highness the King of Chu, the old man of the Ma family is named Ma Sanfu, and his son is called Ma Dabao. Ma Sanfu's mother-in-law died relatively early, and the Ma family originally only had a father and son. However, at the end of last year, Ma Laohan set a marriage for his son Dabao and married back a bride, whose name was Su Xiaoshuang, the daughter of Su Jin, a small landowner in Sujiazhuang next door......"

The situation of Ma Laohan's family is not that complicated, and Li Zheng explained the situation in a few words.

"Lord Wang, this case, for a while, it is estimated that there will be no conclusion, or go back today, and wait for the results of the autopsy to come out tomorrow, and then we will see what to do?"

Seeing that the sun had already descended on the distant mountain, Wang Xuance suggested that everyone go back to the city first.

At this time, Wu Meiniang also came back from a circle in Majiazhuang.

"Lord Wang, there is a situation, I heard that on the first day of Ma Laohan's murder, his in-laws once came to look for Ma Laohan in a menacing manner, and he also brought his five sons with him."

Wu Meiniang's circle did not wander around in vain.

Really asked for a useful piece of information.

"Gu County order, send someone to arrest that Su Jin, and consider it tomorrow."

Although Su Jin has no reason to kill his daughter, as far as the current situation is concerned, he is still the biggest suspect.

……

By the time Li Kuan and his party returned to Jiangdu County, the sky had already begun to darken.

"Lord Wang, are you still going to Qunfang Courtyard today?"

Wang Xuance struggled for a while, but still asked this question.

If such a big case happens, under normal circumstances, no one must have the heart to go to the Qinglou.

However, there was such a scene yesterday, wasn't it just to lure the snake out of the hole and make that Chen Lei faint?

If Li Kuan doesn't go to Qunfang Building, Chen Lei may not be able to find Li Kuan for a while.

"Go, why not?"

Li Kuan took a deep breath and suppressed all the pictures he saw today.

There are some things that should be put down, otherwise you will add a psychological burden to yourself out of thin air.

"Steward Wang, why are you like this?"

Wu Meiniang was not happy to listen to it next to her.

When did you instigate the prince to go to the Qinglou?

This king is in charge, and he is usually not such an unreliable person.

"Miss Wu, listen to my explanation, the matter is ......"

Wu Meiniang's identity is special, Wang Xuance didn't want her to have any misunderstanding about herself, so she quickly explained the situation briefly in a few words.

"So, the business of our Chu Wangfu is about to start working in Jiangnan?"

Wu Meiniang listened to Wang Xuance's explanation, and her brows immediately relaxed.

If this is true, Li Kuan would rather go to the Qinglou to find those fireworks women, and they all put himself and Qing'er aside......

Your self-confidence must not be shattered?

"The commercial center of Datang will inevitably slowly move to Jiangnan, and operating Jiangnan is a problem that everyone needs to face."

"Lord Wang, this topic is a bit big, I'll go back and think about it and then discuss it with you, by the way, you remember to bring a few more guards in a while, these salt merchants, I heard that their subordinates have raised a group of ruthless people."

Although Wu Meiniang knew that Xi Junmai and Wang Xuanwu were very good, sometimes, two fists were hard to beat four hands.

If the boat capsizes in the gutter, it won't be good.

"Don't worry, the person who can hurt me hasn't been born yet."

After Li Kuan finished speaking, he went to change his clothes, and then went to Qunfang Building with Wang Xuance.

Of course, Wang Xuanwu had already arranged for a group of personnel from the Intelligence Investigation Bureau to guard near Qunfang Tower, and there were also people who kept an eye on the movements of the Chen family.

……

An inn next to Qunfang Road has been chartered today.

"Lang Jun, don't worry, as long as that Li Jian dares to show up, his subordinates will definitely capture him."

In front of a window on the second floor, Chen Lei and several subordinates stood there, watching the situation on the street at any time.

"Hmph, remember, I want to live, not die. Yesterday he dared to humiliate me like that, and today I don't go back with double humiliation, how can I relieve the hatred in my heart? ”

Chen Lei touched his cheeks, which were still a little swollen, and his face was cloudy.

Yesterday was a big shame!

Although it was forced by the situation, no one was there to laugh at themselves.

But who is he Chen Lei?

Since childhood, where have you ever been wronged like this?

When he returned that night, he gathered a group of subordinates and began to arrange today's affairs.

"Lang Jun, don't worry, we brought more than 50 people over today, and a few good players in the family have also come over. Even if that Li Jian has three heads and six arms, as long as he dares to show up today, I can bring him over. ”

In the eyes of these thugs of the Chen family, Li Jian was just a businessman from Dengzhou.

Even if you bring guards, it won't be too much.

Besides, the Chen family, as the head snake of Yangzhou, where would they be afraid that there are fewer people than others?

If they really need to, they can just bring a few hundred people with them.

However, in this way, the movement is a bit too big, and it is difficult not to alarm the government.

Chen Lei didn't have the idea of solving this matter through the government, so naturally he didn't want to alarm the government.

Even if there are people in their Chen family in various yamen in Yangzhou.

"Everyone, pay attention, that Li Jian has appeared!"

Just when Chen Lei was worried about whether his enemy would come, on the street not far away, several familiar figures came into view.

O fearless to the ignorant!

I really came over, and I really didn't take myself seriously.

Chen Lei's face became a little more gloomy.
