Chapter 49: Stinky Stones

Luo Yuan asked in one sentence, and Wang Xiao's heart trembled.

Luo Yuan took in his expression, and said, "Heh, it's really you." According to the neighbors, a very handsome young man, fifteen or sixteen years old, dressed in white with his hair tied, embroidered with cloud and thunder patterns on the placket, and tattooed with a picture of a crane and a deer in the same spring. ”

Wang Xiao's coat was only worn yesterday for one day, and he is still wearing it today, and it is pierced at this time, but it is difficult to deny it.

He only thought that the case was over, but he didn't expect it to be turned over and examined.

Luo Yuan said again: "When the neighbor saw you pushing the door into the Tang family's courtyard, he was curious, and climbed to the roof of his house to look, but you entered the house and didn't come out for most of the day." So what's going on? ”

Wang Zhen glanced at Wang Zhu again, and both of them looked a little bad.

Long.

Wang Xiao didn't know how to answer.

Pei Min reacted quickly and shouted: "Lord Luo, if you want to investigate the case, investigate the case, don't ask some irrelevant things!" Have you listened to some one-sided words of long-tongued women, chasing after the wind and shadows, chewing on the rights and wrongs in front of the widow's door, and the appearance of a court official?! ”

Luo Yuan said: "These are the two most important witnesses in this case, how can they be irrelevant?" Wang Xiao, you went to find the Tang family yesterday, and the lonely man and widow stayed in the house, what the hell is going on?! ”

Finally, Wang Xiao said: "I lost the jade pendant I was carrying, and I went to look for it, but I didn't find it." ”

"Lost? Or was it sent out? Luo Yuan's eyes swept in front of his waist, and he said stiffly: "Now this official thinks that both of you are suspected of murder." ”

Pei Min laughed "hehe" and sneered: "Although the imperial historian talks about things, the investigation of the case is different, and the investigation of the case is to talk about evidence!" The murderer in this case is Muzi, this is not made up by anyone, it is the conclusive human and material evidence, so the patrol camp has decided the case. And you suspect and doubt, but there is no evidence at all! ”

"Evidence? Good! Luo Yuan said: "I saw a ladder in the Tang Courtyard this morning, it is very brand new, and it is obviously newly bought in the past few days. If this ladder is erected on the outer wall of the Wang family, it can be used for someone in the Wang family to have a tryst with the Tang family......"

The audience was silent.

This statement is actually easy to refute.

But Wang Zhen and Wang Zhu thought of what their porter said, "The third young master limped back in the middle of the night", and the brothers naturally understood in their hearts.

actually let this erector say it right.

Wang Zhu shook his head.

Pei Min shouted: "The theory of punishing the heart! Lord Luo, watch your words! ”

Bastard, are you fucking afraid that it's not big enough? If this makes you sit down, it means that there is a problem with the character of the newly selected horse, and it will have to implicate the Jianingbo Mansion and the internal officials and supervisors......

And it's a bad thing from Lao Tzu's hands!

On what day did hundreds of people not die in the capital? You mad dog has to hold on to a case that doesn't even have a bitter master, I'll fuck you!

Thinking of this, Pei Min glanced at Luo Yuan again, and said secretly, isn't this mad dog here for this?

But I heard Luo Yuan say: "Regarding this case, this official has a second inference. Wang Xiao had an affair with Tang, and was discovered by Tang's conformist accomplice, who killed the accomplice and left a book on the ground to blame the serial killer. The ladder in Tang's yard is the evidence, and the neighbors who saw the two coming and going are the witnesses. ”

Pei Min said: "You are a dignified imperial history, how can you say such irresponsible discussions." Can't the Tang Clan buy a ladder? Can't it be someone who wants to repair the roof? ”

Luo Yuan said: "So what the official said is 'corroboration' rather than 'evidence', but if you search the Tang family's house, you may be able to find Wang Xiao's so-called 'lost' jade pendant......"

Wang Xiao's eyelids jumped, and there was a chill behind him.

Wang Zhen and Wang Zhu glanced at each other again.

Wang Zhen: There may be personal feelings, but murder will not.

Wang Zhu: Then I'll come.

"I've heard that the imperial history has the privilege of rumors, but when I see it today, it's really powerful." Wang Zhu sneered and said, "However, it's better not to interfere too much in this case." ”

"This official is impartial and truthful, and he dares to talk about the merits." Luo Yuan clenched his fists again and arched his hand to the sky, and said, "What do you mean?" ”

"There are 300 Jinshi today, and there are thousands of sergeants in Beijing, why did the deceased want to steal your name, Lord Luo?" Wang Zhu's expression was light, but there was some sarcasm in his mouth: "Just now I said that the second child of the cloth shop saw a young scribe who fled in a panic, that person may be the murderer, or ...... Lord Luo, you look like a 'young scribe'. ”

"You don't want to spew blood!"

"I'm just speculating, and I dare to argue." Wang Zhu said lightly: "By the way, when it comes to motivation." Maybe it's because Lord Luo has your name stolen, and you are angry, so you go to the deceased to take revenge. ”

Luo Yuan said: "The heart of a villain is the belly of a gentleman." ”

"I said it was just speculation. This case still has to be investigated by Master Pei. Wang Zhu said: "I just don't understand, why are you so anxious, Lord Luo?" A picture of aggressively trying to plant things on someone else. ”

Luo Yuan said: "If it is as you say, I might as well let the Taiping Division close the case on the grounds that the murderer is Muzi......"

Wang Zhu interrupted him, waved his hand, and said, "I'm just offering a possibility." Before the case was decided, Lord Luo and his younger brother were only witnesses, and even said that they were suspicious. I suggest that neither side open their mouths and wait for Master Pei to find out the truth. ”

"Master Pei? Hmph, if he really wants to find out, why should this official be here to ...... in person"

"Lord Luo, before the truth comes out, it's better for you to talk less, so as not to provoke suspicion." Wang Zhu interrupted him again.

Luo Yuan obviously spoke sonorously and powerfully, but Wang Zhu's tone was like a knife, and he could interrupt him with one sentence.

Wang Zhu turned to Pei Baihu again and said, "The contemptible people have some small suggestions. The first is to find out the identity of the deceased, and the second is to find out the relationship between the deceased and Lord Luo. For example, why did he pretend to be Lord Luo? By the way, I also need to find out ......"

Wang Zhu said, paused, then smiled slightly, and said, "...... It is also necessary to find out which is the real one - the current Kejin Shi Luo Yuan. ”

A sentence came into his ears, and Luo Yuan was furious.

Pei Min sneered and laughed.

Wang Zhen also groaned: "There is indeed such a possibility in this case, maybe it is really Luo Yuan who died on the new list, someone killed him, impersonated, and pretended to be the imperial history of the court...... Oops, it's me who has lost my voice. ”

"Ridiculous! Heart-wrenching! Luo Yuanyuan was so angry that his face was as red as a pig's liver, and he said angrily: "This official has been studying hard for twenty-seven years, and he has learned the Jinshi in the examination with his talent in his womb, how did he come to leave?!" ”

Pei Min said: "Then how do you know that the deceased has no talent in his belly?" Xu is that you think you are talented, but you have tried repeatedly, so you are angry and kill. ”

"Ridiculous!" Luo Yuan said: "Whether this official is really Luo Yuan or not, you will know as soon as you ask." ”

Pei Min said: "Okay! I'll send someone to Lord Luo's hometown to ask. ”

Luo Yuan froze, and his fingers trembled with anger. scolded: "This case is a fog, you don't arrest the Tang clan and torture it, but you have to send people all the way to my hometown to investigate, isn't it a delay and perfunctory?" ”

Pei Min put his hands behind his back and said lightly: "I don't want to answer you until Lord Luo's identity is clarified." ”

"This official wants to impeach you!"

Pei Min said: "I am only a hundred households, and I handle cases according to regulations." How? When it comes to you, you're going to impeach me? Could it be that there is a ghost in his heart? ”

Luo Yuan was angry and scolded: "I can see that you merchants, swindlers, fanzi, nobles, and eunuchs are in collusion, using silver money as a bridge and power as goods to deceive the heavenly family." It is you people who are like maggots attached to the bones, and you are making this world worse and worse! Okay, we'll see! ”

With that, he got up and wanted to leave.

The words "Xungui, eunuch" and "blinding the heavenly family" were in their ears, Pei Min and Wang Zhu glanced at each other, and secretly said in their hearts, sure enough.

This Luo Yuan's fox tail is exposed.

Wang Zhen smiled and said: "Master Luo stays, everyone is just discussing the case, don't get excited, don't get excited." ”

Wang Zhu also said: "It is rare for the two adults to come, and my eldest brother has prepared two small gifts for each other. Come, bring it. ”

Luo Yuan was about to brush his sleeves away, but when he heard the words, he stopped.

Pei Min sneered in his heart: "Pretend to be righteous and awe-inspiring, and you can't move your feet when you hear the politeness." Hehe, these civil officials ......"

But he saw two servants coming up with a tray covered with a red cloth.

Unexpectedly, Luo Yuan sneered: "What a bold man, dare to openly bribe in front of the imperial history of the court." Master Pei, I'm afraid you're going to take off your python claw suit. ”

Wang Zhu seemed to be a little impatient, and his mouth "tsk".

Wang Zhen still smiled gently.

Luo Yuan lifted the red cloth and was stunned for a moment.

But I saw that there were books on both trays.

Two copies of "Dongpo Dictionary", with beautiful covers and good paper.

There is also the scent of ink.

Wang Zhen smiled: "This book is a little hard to find in the capital now, these are the two books I keep." Today, the two adults are here, and it is rare to speculate on words, so let's send them to the two. ”

What is a bribe?

"Huh." Pei Min chuckled again, squinting at Luo Yuan, and the sarcasm on his face was even stronger.

"Impossible." Luo Yuan muttered, picked up the book on the tray and flipped through it.

"Don't think that the official doesn't know that you have a silver ticket here......"

Finish a book.

There are no silver tickets.

"Yes, you only plan to bribe this Pei Min alone."

He flipped through another one.

There is still no silver ticket......

Pei Min laughed and sneered: "Lord Luo, don't you want to go crazy with a silver ticket?" ”

Rod was angry: "You guys are playing me!" ”

It's humiliating.

It's like living the belly of a gentleman with the heart of a villain.

Wang Zhu said lightly: "Today, Lord Luo came, I have been taught a lot, but there is one sentence that I also want to encourage Lord Luo - things in the world may not be as I think in my heart, and people are evil, but not everyone is evil." Our generation acts, first introspection, and then the world, this so-called 'gentleman cautious independence'. ”

Luo Yuan's face blushed to the base of his neck.

After Wang Zhu finished speaking, he lowered his head and played with the lid of the teacup, obviously sending off the guests.

Luo Yuan didn't speak, and left angrily.

Pei Min and Wang Zhu glanced at each other, nodded, and left.
