In the courtyard, Lu Pheasant had already figured out his thoughts and decided to find a way to help Ling Shi catch the murderer as soon as possible, so that Lu Gong could return as soon as possible. It's just that seeing that Ling Shi still has to ask Lu Ze to help herself, she looked at Lu Ze, who was worried, and took a few steps forward and pulled his sleeve and said, "Brother, come with me." ”

The two walked to a secluded place, and Lu Pheasant spoke: "Brother, now that Father is in the county prison, we shouldn't sit and wait, Brother Ask Ling Shi next door to come over, I have some ideas to let him find out the real culprit earlier." ”

Lu Ze took a deep look at his sister, and then walked quickly outside to find the pavilion chief who took someone to inspect the hostel, the pavilion chief saw that the eldest son of the suspect's family was a little strange, and when he heard Lu Ze's request, he thought about it for a while and sent someone to invite Ling Shi next door.

After Lu Ze left, Lu Pheasant was thinking about some of the cases he encountered when Liu Ji was the pavilion chief before, if Ling Shi couldn't enforce the law impartially, then she could only take out the Wei State Credential and announce the identity of the envoy. However, this small setback is not worth revealing his identity at all, and it shouldn't take much time to catch a thief with such shoddy means.

Outside the courtyard, Lu Ze led a solemn Ling Shi in, who was about forty or fifty years old, with gray hair and a deep sunken scar on his face, probably left by his early years in the army. Although he was a little old, he kept his back straight. He was followed by a scribe.

"This Ling Shi, I often hear that Qin Law asks for sealing, diagnosis, and formula. Now that Ling Shi must have gotten enough information, I have some humble opinions I want to tell Ling Shi, I wonder if Ling Shi is interested? Lu Pheasant stared at the aged Ling Shi and said with a chuckle on his face.

The girl was not surprised by his appearance, which made Ling Shi very surprised. However, if Ling Shi knew that the girl in front of him had cut people into sticks, I am afraid he would not be surprised. He glanced at the pen and motioned for him to write it down: "But it doesn't hurt to speak." ”

"Qin Guo came quickly and the law is strict, there will be no outsiders in the inn during the curfew, and the old Sheren will definitely die from last night to this morning. Although Lao Sheren is not young, he must be very healthy when he is busy with the hostel all day. There should be some resistance before dying, which may leave a scar on the gangster.

The most important point is that there are many people in the hostel, and if most of the suspects can be eliminated, the real culprit will be found faster. If anyone can prove that he did not enter or leave the house during the night, it is unlikely that he is the real murderer.

In the end, the discoverer of the murder may also be the murderer, and I hope that Shi can bring the real murderer to justice as soon as possible. ”

Ling Shi listened to her clear and coherent words, and couldn't help but nod approvingly, some of which he didn't expect. He looked back and saw that the pen clerk had finished recording, and then looked at Lu Pheasant and squeezed out a smile and said: "As a Lingshi, I must enforce the law impartially, if your father is really innocent, he will be acquitted, don't worry." ”

After Ling Shi left, Lu Ze and Lu Pheasant were a little hesitant on the way back to the room, and finally said suspiciously: "Ah Mei really thinks that entering Qin is a good decision?" ”

Lu Pheasant stopped and looked at Lu Ze, who was a little sullen, and asked, "Where are we under our feet?" ”

"Qin Di." Lu Ze replied a little sullenly.

"No, this is just the Korean land before, and now it is very different from the Korean land. Even if we live as a single father, one day we will have to live under the Qin law. If this is the case, it is better to enter Qin as soon as possible, and then there will be a chance to change. Moreover, you can also see that although the Qin law is strict, the Qin officials pursue justice under the strict law. Isn't it much better than the land of Han Wei? Have you ever encountered thieves since entering Qin? ”

Lu Ze finally nodded and admitted: "It's me who wants to fork, let's go, my mother is still waiting for us." ”

Ling Shi rushed back to the county government with the pavilion chief, and the yamen Ling Shi asked the pavilion chief who had found the body. The pavilion chief hurried to block the scene when he heard the news from his subordinates, and he called the thief to inquire.

The thief is just a title just passed down from his deceased father, and he has very little experience, and he is even more nervous when he is asked by Ling Shi, and he can recognize it by saying goodbye.

Ling Shi took the pavilion chief and his men to the prison and said to the people in custody: "There are many suspects, but there must not be many murderers. Anyone who can prove to each other last night that he has not left the house may be acquitted. ”

Many testified to each other, and when they went out, they were asked to take off their clothes and be checked for injuries before they were released completely. There are fewer and fewer people in prison, and Lu Gong thought that he and his wife were asleep last night and raised his hand to signal that there was a witness, and he was taken out for examination without scars but was left behind.

Only a few people in prison claimed to have gone out at night, on the same grounds that they had gone to the latrines. Ling Shi sent people to strip off the people one by one and examine them, and finally found scratches on a somewhat thin middle-aged man. The thief also shouted, saying that this man was the one who found the body.

Lu Gong was a little at a loss when he was brought to the hall by Ling Shi, obviously it was not his suspicion that was cleared, why didn't he let him leave. The suspect on one side was a little trembling, afraid to realize that things were not going the way he expected.

Ling Shi looked at the suspect and asked him to tell him about the discovery of the body. He said hesitantly: "My name is Dahe, last night when I was eating in the lobby, I saw this person's family having an argument with Lao Sheren, and when I went to find Lao Sheren this morning, I found that he had been killed in the courtyard, so I hurriedly reported it to the thief." ”

Ling Shi asked again: "Dahe, do you think it was this Lao She who killed?" ”

"Yes, that's right, it must have been the old man he killed. They had a dispute with the Lao Sheren and were unwilling to be examined. ”

Ling Shi laughed twice: "I don't know where the scratches on your chest come from?" Although it is not cold in spring, there are no mosquito bites. ”

Dahe's forehead was sweating like pulp, and the two trembled, Ling Shi's stern scrutiny made his fragile psychology collapse directly, and he knelt on the ground and shouted: "The villain was blinded by lard, and it was the villain who saw that they were generous and greedy, so he wanted to kill Lao Sheren and blame him. ”

The official of the order Shi Rang recorded that the sentence was pronounced: "Dahe killed people out of jealousy, and blamed others, and was punished for both crimes, and sat on death." Lu Wen's daughter is quick and thoughtful, and she is meritorious in providing clues, and she is rewarded with 100 yuan. ”

The scribe recorded the trial book, put the bamboo slips into the treasury, and on the other hand, Ling Shi asked Shi to take a hundred yuan from the treasury and hand it to Lu's father, announcing that he was acquitted and could go back. Lu Gong was holding a string of money in his hand, and he couldn't cry or laugh, he didn't forget to thank Ling Shi: "Thank you Ling Shi for proving my innocence." ”

Ling Shi waved his hand and said, "Ling Ai reminded me so that you can get away with it quickly, otherwise I'm afraid you will have to wait a little longer." ”

Lu Gong went out of the mansion and saw that Guosheng was waiting at the door, so he stretched out his hand and handed him a copper coin in his hand. ”

Lu Gong waved his hand and said to him, "Madame is afraid that she is frightened, go back quickly." ”

In the hostel, Lu Pheasant saw his own soldiers and servants coming back in twos and threes more than half an hour ago, and guessed that Ling Shi must have used his own method to quickly lock up the suspect, and his heart was settled.

After waiting for nearly half an hour, Lu's father and Guosheng also returned to the hotel, and the family was very happy, and the fun also presided over the obscurity removal ceremony.

Father Lu told the motive of that person's killing, and Lu Shizhi inevitably sneered: "Yesterday, that old man hated it so much, I thought it was just for us, but I didn't expect that there were many people who didn't like him." Now that he's been killed, he must be able to change to a gentler here, right? ”

"Brother Zhong, although Lao Sheren is more obedient, he still arranged us in an orderly manner, and the murderer is just trying to shirk the charge, how can you say such things?" Lu Pheasant said with a frown.

Although she is not a kind woman, she also has revenge and kindness, and the slightest disrespect in words is not enough to make her angry. She was just a little worried that Lu Shizhi would become cold-hearted and cold-hearted prematurely.

Lu Gong also thought that what Lu Pheasant said was right, and taught Lu Shizhi a lesson: "Pheasant's words are reasonable, ah yes, Ling Shi will reward you with 100 yuan, I don't know what you plan?" ”

"If it is not given to Lao Sheren's family, he will also die because of us." The trace of compassion on Lu Pheasant's face was a little fleeting, but it made Lu Gong think that he had seen it wrong.

After Duke Lu took his family on the road again, Qin Wangzheng in Xianyang City had already arranged a chariot and was ready to go to Yongcheng to worship the ancestors and prepare for the crown ceremony.

The specifications of the king's chariot are naturally not an ordinary style, and in the spring and autumn period, the emperor has six horses, and the princes have five horses. After the Warring States period, the princes trampled on the outdated etiquette system at will, depending on how much the monarch wanted to fight.

This time, Qin Zheng was driven to Yongcheng by 16 black horses with a huge frame, and the main road of the city was lined with pious subjects, believing that the new pro-government Qin king would definitely lead the Qin state to become stronger.

Lu Xiang's car rode behind the frame of King Qin, listening to his subjects chanting "King, King, King", but his face was not very good. When the day finally came, he had some gains and losses, and his authority was so tempting that no one could give it up easily.

Yongcheng left the palace, holding the brocade quilt naked Zhao Ji is warming, Zhao Ji is chattering and asking him to take the two children out of the palace and place them outside the palace for a period of time, and then bring the children back after Qin Zheng returns to Xianyang after adding the crown.

Chang Yu didn't want her to say anything else at this time, so she stepped forward and stabbed her again. Zhao Jijiao snorted and indulged in it again. The flowers trembled in the wind, and more nectar flowed from the stamens. The two came a few more times, and Chang Yu only held Zhao Ji, who was exhausted and fell asleep, to think about countermeasures.

When King Qin killed the rebellious Chang'an Jun before, he didn't see any forgiveness from him, and if his own affairs were discovered by him, he would definitely die. Even if he is powerful in Yongcheng, he is still vulnerable in front of the King of Qin, so it is better to assassinate him while the King of Qin comes to salute.

In the afternoon, the king of Qin came to Yongcheng, and all the civil and military officials came to attend the ceremony, so the scale was grand. King Qin Zheng remembered that he had not seen his mother for many years, so he prepared to visit his mother first, and then go to bathe and burn incense, preparing to worship his ancestors the next day.
