The next day, when Lu Chensheng woke up, Xiaoyu ran in happily.

"Uncle, do you know who the murderer of his wife is?"

Xiao Yu looked at Lu Chensheng, who was still lying on the bed, and only asked Lu Chensheng stunned for a moment.

He had just woken up, and his mind was still a little confused.

"What's wrong?"

Lu Chensheng came back to his senses and looked at this little jade in wonder.

"The yamen sent a notice over there, saying that if anyone can help solve the case, a reward of two taels of silver!"

Two two?

Lu Chensheng's eyes suddenly lit up, and he hurriedly got up, "Help my uncle and me get dressed, let's go get the money!" ”

When Xiaoyu heard this, she suddenly came to her senses, and hurriedly helped Lu Chensheng get dressed, brought hot water, and helped her aunt wash up, and the two of them hurriedly went out.

After a while, the two came to the yamen, and after making their intentions clear, the yasmen took them in.

"It's the two of you, saying you can find the murderer?"

The county commander looked at the two people in front of him, his brows furrowed, and his tone was a little suspicious.

I probably didn't believe it very much, so Lu Chensheng could find out the murderer.

"Okay, don't you want to let me try it, don't you know?"

When the county magistrate heard this, he thought about it, too.

This case gave him a headache when he thought about it, and he originally wanted to judge the case directly, but this was killing his wife.

It's just that the certification was issued later, and then many people followed and shouted injustice, but he didn't dare to directly decide the case.

It's just that this case dragged on like this, which greatly damaged his majesty, so he came up with such a way.

"So, how do you solve the case?"

Lu Chensheng arched his hand when he heard this, "Please also ask your lord to find all the carpenters in the city who make longevity materials." ”

The county magistrate frowned, he didn't know what kind of medicine Lu Chensheng was selling, but he also waved his hand and asked the official to find everyone.

A few moments later, a dozen or so people were found.

Lu Chensheng was not polite when he saw it, and asked directly, "In the days after Liu's death, was there a funeral for that family?" Want a coffin? ”

When the carpenters heard this, they looked at each other, thought for a moment and said, "There is a family, but the Ding family members asked for a coffin, saying that the maid of the family was sick and died."

Strange to say, this person died, but the coffin was very light on the day of the funeral. ”

The old carpenter had some memories of this incident, and replied directly.

Lu Chensheng immediately knew in his heart, knowing that what he was thinking was right.

"My lord, please send someone to check the corpse in this coffin immediately, and arrest this Ding member, if the adult investigates more in this person's house, I think there will be another harvest in the future."

The county commander frowned, and after thinking about it, he did so.

A moment later, the Ding family was caught in the yamen, and to everyone's surprise, the Liu family was actually brought back.

"What's going on?"

At this moment, even the county magistrate above looked stunned, and looked at this scene with a little mushy mind.

And then, the official who went to open the coffin also ran back, saying that there was only one head in the coffin!

Hearing this, Xiao Yu couldn't help but tighten slightly beside Lu Chensheng, and grabbed the corner of Lu Chensheng's clothes.

"What the hell is going on?"

The county commander couldn't help but speak, it stands to reason that this Liu family is dead?

Lu Chensheng smiled when he heard this, "It's very simple, the Liu family didn't die at all, it was actually the maid in Ding Yuanwai's house who wanted to die, and the two of them just did some tricks." ”

Ding Yuanwai on the side was also a little pale at the moment, and he trembled and explained everything he had done.

It turned out that he had an affair with Liu, and then gradually fell in love with each other, and then after thinking about it, he killed one of his maids and replaced Liu's body with the maid's body.

When I first saw my wife dead, I didn't check it as a husband, I just thought it was my wife, and then hurriedly reported the case.

After that, everyone thought that he actually killed his wife.

And the head left behind was directly pulled out of the coffin and buried, and no one would know about it.

This was a clever plan that Ding Yuanwai thought, but he didn't expect to be recognized by Lu Chensheng.

Hearing this, the county magistrate's eyes widened, and he looked at Lu Chensheng on the side in a bit of incredulity.

The other party only heard about the case, how could it be cracked so quickly?

Lu Chensheng didn't pay attention to it so much, just stretched out his hand, "My lord, where is the silver?" ”

The corner of the county commander's mouth twitched, "Give him a tael of silver." ”

As he spoke, he waved his hand and asked Lu Chensheng to leave quickly.

Lu Chensheng frowned, this is a good two taels of silver, how did it become a tael?

Seeing this, the master on the side was suddenly shocked, and hurriedly stepped forward and whispered, "My lord, although this scholar looks a little raw, but the maid next to him is a person from the White Mansion, this money..."

The county magistrate frowned when he heard this, the people of Baifu? That can't be messed with.

"The official remembered wrong, it was two taels of silver."

This time, the tone was much more polite, and the official on the side immediately took two taels of silver and sent them to Xiaoyu.

Xiao Yu saw the two taels of silver in her hand, and smiled happily, not to mention how happy she was.

Seeing this, Lu Chensheng also smiled slightly, and led Xiaoyu to turn around and leave, as for how the other party would judge that member next, it was not his business.

After leaving the yamen, Xiaoyu's face was still red, "Uncle is amazing!" How did you know about the murderer? ”

"Use your brain to think about everything, why is the head of the deceased missing? The most likely reason for taking a head is that they don't want people to identify the deceased's original face.

Why do you want to do this, think about it carefully, and then think about where the head went, for normal people, it is impossible to bury it in their own yard, and the only safer way to send it out of the city is to use a coffin to transport it. ”

The ancients were relatively taboo, so it was naturally impossible to sell this kind of thing in their own yard or something, and it was easy for people to find out if they buried it in someone else's place.

But if you use a coffin to transport it out, it is much easier and safer.

With this reasoning, the matter is much simpler.

Xiao Yu was stunned when she heard this, and finally glanced at her aunt, "That uncle, I heard that my uncle was going to run away from marriage before, why was he arrested for being so smart?" ”

The corners of Lu Chensheng's mouth twitched, and he suddenly felt so piercing.

Yes, being so smart was calculated.

Lu Chensheng can basically conclude at this time that the previous Li Junfang is definitely calculating himself.

But Lu Chensheng was fooled.
