Chapter 296: Finding a Clue
Early in the morning, before Li Chen got up, Yingyue's claws quietly stretched out towards Li Chen's ears. Ying Yue had just gone out for a walk, and now even the children playing in the fields were discussing the matter of Meng Tian's illegitimate daughter. Which broken mouth spread this thing, Ying Yue could guess with her toes.
"Whoa, whoa, whoa."
"Daughter-in-law, baby, dear, it hurts, it hurts." Ying Yue tugged at Li Chen's ear, and Li Chen's ear moved with Ying Yue's hand.
Ying Yue put one hand on her waist, and the other hand slipped Li Chen's ear, and said with a disgusted face: "Tell me about your dignified Marquis of Qin, your mouth is not broken, and now the matter of Uncle Meng's illegitimate daughter is unknown to everyone in Xianyang City." ”
"That's not what I said, I told Wang Li. When he left, I told me that I must not tell anyone about this matter. After that, he also promised me? Li Chen's ears had just escaped from Ying Yue's clutches, and he rubbed his ears and said angrily.
"How did Wang Li promise you?" Ying Yue glanced at Li Chen and asked.
"How did he promise me, yes, he said his mouth was the same as the belt of his trousers."
"Smack."
"Oh,. This kid's mouth is the same as the belt of his trousers, so how fucking loose. Li Chen slapped his thigh violently and suddenly realized.
Li Chen sneakily leaned towards Ying Yue and said, "Daughter-in-law, I also did a good thing, after all, it is General Meng's blood and bones, what's the matter if it's outside." Now that the news has spread, it can be regarded as helping her recognize her ancestors and return to her ancestors. ”
Ying Yue looked at Li Chen, this thing is really shameless, it is clear that he has a broken mouth, and he has to pull a little truth to prove that he is right to break his mouth.
In a courtyard in Lijiazhuang, the people who are now guarding the convoy are being guarded in this courtyard. After preliminary interrogation, Zhao Que has roughly determined that there should be no problem with these people, but even if there is no problem, they cannot be released until the case is clear.
Zhao Que has been eating and living in the courtyard these days, and he communicated with these people one by one, asked all the details of that day clearly, and then checked them little by little. The emperor lived up to his wishes, and the delicate Zhao Que finally found a clue.
"You mean that you are all guarding the periphery of the convoy on weekdays, only General Meng Tian's daughter Meng Lu usually sits in the last carriage, but Meng Lu happened to leave the carriage before the accident, and naturally happened to avoid the scope of the explosion." Zhao Que's gaze swept over the soldier in front of him, and he could be sure that this person should be telling the truth.
Before Meng Yi left, he had already explained that Meng Tian's soldiers fully cooperated with Zhao Que in investigating the case, so these soldiers naturally cooperated a lot, and tried to recall some details.
After getting this clue, Zhao Que seemed to find the thread in a thread group. Meng Lu left the carriage, and then the carriage drove into the bridge, which exploded and the carriage fell into the Jing River. All this is a bit too coincidental, Zhao Que has never believed in coincidences, and there will inevitably be a mastermind behind excessive coincidences.
Zhao Que found a clue and ordered someone to find Meng Lu. If you want to sort out the clues of the matter, you have to find out what the reason for Meng Lu left the carriage that day.
Meng Yi led his niece Meng Lu to Lijiazhuang, and today's Meng Lu was wearing a woman's dress. The fact that she is Meng Tian's illegitimate daughter has spread in Xianyang, so naturally there is no need to be taboo. Meng Lu is not the blood of Meng Tian, even if he is wearing women's clothes, there is a hardness in his eyebrows.
"Master Hou, your mouth is really broken." When Meng Yi saw Li Chen, he immediately said angrily.
"Don't talk nonsense, it's not me, it's Wang Li." Li Chen naturally didn't admit it, and then sold Wang Li without hesitation.
"Investigate the case, investigate the case." Seeing what Meng Yi was going to say, Li Chen hurriedly opened the topic.
Zhao Que handed the file to Meng Lu, and then asked softly: "When you left the carriage that day, and then it happened that the bridge exploded, do you remember why you left the carriage that day?" ”
Meng Lu looked at the dossier in his hand, and his heroic eyebrows were tightly wrinkled. Zhao Que noticed Menglu's abnormality, and Zhao Que seemed to be very entangled in her heart.
Under the gaze of several people, Meng Lu's hands were tightly clenched into fists, Meng Lu bit the bright red side lip, and then said slowly: "It's General Zhang Changye, I was sitting in the last carriage that day, General Zhang said that he had colic in his abdomen and then I just left, and the bridge exploded." ”
Zhang Chang is also Meng Tian's confidant, and when he conquered the Xiongnu from Meng Tian's north, he followed Meng Tian's side to fight in the north and south, and made great contributions to Daqin. He is also Menglu's old boss, and after many years of military career, Menglu doesn't believe that Zhang Chang will have problems.
Meng Yi frowned, as if he was a little incredulous, he opened his mouth and said, "Could Master Hou be mistaken, Zhang Chang shouldn't have a problem." ”
Zhao Que glanced at Meng Yi, and said with a serious face: "Everyone has their own life, gold and silver, women, wives, children, etc. As long as he hits the point he cares about, everyone has the possibility of betrayal. Master Hou, I dare to conclude that this Zhang Chang also has a problem. ”
"If there is a problem, check it, Lao Tzu wants to see if it is the thing that does not have long eyes and dares to hack Lao Tzu's silver." Li Chen said indignantly.
Meng Lu clenched his fists and said, "Master Hou, I also want to join in this case." ”
At this time, Meng Yi also turned his head and said to Li Chen: "My niece will stay in Xianyang in the future, and I want to help her find an errand here for Master Hou." Although my niece is a daughter, she likes to dance knives and guns since she was a child, and her archery skills can be called a hundred steps through Yang. ”
"I like to play with guns, and I can shoot and shoot arrows. It's a pity that I'm a single-minded man. Li Chen thought so.
Li Chen's current status in Daqin's officialdom can be called the first person, and Daqin's movements over the years have also been made by Li Chen, but under Li Chen's actions, Daqin has become more and more prosperous. If it is said that the three families of Wang, Meng, and Li (Li Si) could control the Great Qin Dynasty in the past, but now Li Chen's energy alone is not inferior to these three families.
"It's all my own people, and my Li Jiazhuang is inclusive." Li Chen happily agreed.
Meng Lu is also a vigorous and resolute female man, and this person seems to be quite capable, as soon as he joined the case, it only took a few days for Meng Lu to bring good news to Li Chen.
"General Zhang may really have a problem, General Zhang, I understand, this person is not greedy for money and not lustful. But he was a man who loved his children very much, so I sent a message to my brothers in the army. General Zhang's parents died young, and his wife and children settled in Yuecheng. The brothers in the army sent a message that General Zhang's wife and children were missing. According to the memories of the surrounding neighbors, the two men had disappeared for a long time and should have disappeared before the accident. Meng Li's voice was low, with a hint of unspeakable emotion, she couldn't imagine that the problem really was with the big brother in the army.
"Check this Zhang Changye, he must still be alive." Li Chen said.
