Yangzi took out his pocket watch and looked at the time, and sighed: "Captain Li is now more than nine o'clock in the morning, according to the normal happy event, as long as I finish painting makeup for Miss Cheng, Miss Cheng can put on a red hijab on the sedan chair, and I can leave after receiving the happy money, I can't hide it, I have a lot of work these days, if there is nothing wrong, can I take a step first!" ”

Li Guolou glanced at him and said, "Tell me what you did last night, make it clear, you can naturally leave!" ”

Yangzi frowned and said: "I went to bed very early last night, and when I woke up, I heard that Miss was killed, I told the truth, Liu Weihuang, Sang Mengge and Li Laohan can all testify for me!" ”

Li Laohan nodded and said, "Yes, when there was an accident in the inner house, we were all in the yard, and no one was running around!" ”

"Then have you guys gone out to listen to the play? Li Guolou turned to look at a few people next to him.

"My master didn't go to the play, we both went to the play together." Zhou Xiaohuan hurriedly said.

Roberts shook his head and said: "Little Lizi, I don't understand your opera, I drank with Liu Weihuang in the room, and then slept separately!" ”

Liu Weihuang nodded and said: "Yes, I drank with Mr. Roberts, and drank until more than nine o'clock in the evening, and then went back to the room to sleep. ”

"Sanmongo, what are you doing at night?" Li Guolou's face was serious, and he looked at Sang Mengge with a straight face.

"I went to the theater." Sam Meng Ge said with his chest protruding.

"I don't see you." "I don't have a housekeeper for you." Zhou Xiaohuan and Jiang Cong said one after the other.

"Handcuffed." Li Guolou shouted.

Ai Hai stepped forward, and the fierce look was about to lock up and lie Sangmengge.

The people of Chengfu also glared at Sang Mengge angrily, and scolded Sang Mengge sharply, believing that he was a murderer.

"Wronged, Captain Li, I just ran to the inner house to peek at the little lady taking a bath, and I didn't run to the daughter's building to kill people." After being handcuffed, Sammenggo hurriedly called out, struggling his arms to break free from the handcuffs.

Cheng Kunyu's face turned pale, and he shouted angrily: "Call me!" ”

Yesterday, a big drama was sung in the outer courtyard, the door of the inner house was not locked, and the wives and concubines ran out to watch the big play, which allowed the murderer to enter the daughter's building through the inner house, which led to the murder of his daughter Cheng Xiaochun.

Sang Mengge was beaten by several family members, knocked over the ground, and cried: "Captain Li, help, I really didn't kill anyone, you save me!" ”

Li Laohan said angrily: "I'll kill you, let you do bad things, I'll kill you······"

Li Laohan's eyes widened angrily, and he also leaned up and kicked Brother Sang Meng with his feet, his movements were flexible and full of strength, and Brother Sang Meng screamed again and again, "Ancestor." "Grandma." Keep calling, hoping that the people of Chengfu will be merciful.

Yelia pulled Li Guolou's sleeve, hoping that Li Guolou would accumulate some virtue and bring Sang Mengge off the brink of death, not just thinking about saving the two maids.

Li Guolou blinked and asked Yelia not to be troublesome, Cheng Kunyu already wanted to kill someone, and it was the right thing to let the people of Chengfu vent.

Aunt Di walked into the courtyard, hugged her fists and said, "Captain Li didn't find out!" ”

"Oh······" Li Guolou's face twitched, as if he was snickering, and hurriedly became serious.

Seeing that Brother Sang Meng was beaten so that he couldn't move, Li Guolou said: "Okay, don't fight the murderer and die of laughter!" ”

Cheng Kunyu pointed his finger at Brother Sang Meng, who was lying on the ground, and roared angrily: "Li Zhutou, if you don't interrogate Brother Sang Meng, you will know that he is not a murderer!" ”

Li Guolou didn't ignore Cheng Kunyu's accusations, but instead asked, "Old man Li, how old are you and what is your name!" ”

Beating people is also hard work, so tired and panting Li Laohan stopped and said, "Captain Li, my name is Li Cheng, and I am just forty-five years old this year!" ”

"Oh······ Li Cheng, you look old, but you're actually young. Li Guolou looked Li Cheng up and down, he already doubted the object in his heart, he looked up at the sky again, no matter what other people thought, Mu Lengleng stood in the yard and left the others aside.

"Captain Lee." Ai Hai shouted softly next to him, and said something important about what he was going to do next.

"Oh······ Deputy Ai team, put away all the undried clothes in the yard, there may be blood stains on them, give me a careful look at the clothes one by one, put them in the dark room, one by one with an oil lamp, the blood stains are not clean, and then get some insects, there is a smell of blood, the insects will climb up. Li Guolou looked at Li Cheng with a smile, and the meaning was self-evident.

"Captain Li, what do you mean?" Li Cheng blinked his eyes and shouted angrily.

"Skynet is magnificent but not leaky, Li Cheng, don't think that someone calls you Li Laohan, you are a good person." Li Guolou squinted at the person, as if he wanted to see through what the other party was thinking.

Everyone was in an uproar, and they couldn't believe that Li Cheng was the murderer, but they all looked at Li Cheng.

Li Guolou turned his head and said, "Lord Shangshu, I heard that someone offered 10,000 taels of silver to buy your red diamond, but you didn't sell it, did you!" ”

Cheng Kunyu nodded and said: "Yes, I am not short of money, what do I want 10,000 taels of silver for, red diamonds are priceless, even if someone bids 100,000 taels, I will not sell it!" ”

Cheng Kunyu just wants to repeat being a real official, it doesn't matter if the official hat is small, he has long had enough of it, he wants to be with Prince Li's relatives and use red diamonds as a dowry, just to return to the political arena.

Li Guolou said: "But the lower officials heard that there are people on the rivers and lakes who offer a reward, and the bounty is 10,000 taels, and as long as you get the red diamond, you are willing to pay, right!" ”

"Hey, there's such a thing, so I'm extra careful, I never take out the red diamond to show it, I didn't expect that people still have to take risks, I really regret that I shouldn't have given the red diamond to my daughter so early." Cheng Kunyu burst into tears, beat his chest and cried.

Li Guolou said: "Lord Shangshu, I can say in charge that this case is done by someone from your house, and it has nothing to do with the troupe and these six people!" ”

"Why, it can't be." The chief steward Chang Shi jumped like thunder, screaming loudly, this is not to splash all the dirty water on his head.

Li Guolou said: "Because of the outsider, even if he succeeds in stealing the red diamond, he has no way to take it out of Chengfu, and Chang is in charge of you to guard this place impenetrable, will those treasures fly out, so the murderer must be from your mansion!" ”

Cheng Kunyu looked at kneeling on the ground to confess Li Cheng, and said suspiciously: "Li Zhutou, then why do you think Li Laohan is a murderer!" ”

Li Guolou spit out word by word: "Lord Shangshu, because only Li Laohan here has the opportunity to become your daughter's friend, he is a flower planter, he looks honest and old, he can enter and exit your inner house and your daughter's building to trim flowers and plants generously, and you can also say a few words to your concubine, you won't mind, right!" ”

Cheng Kunyu's heart sank, and he looked at Li Cheng who was kneeling on the ground in horror, stepped forward with a kick, and said angrily: "Okay, it turned out to be you!" ”

Li Cheng hugged Cheng Kunyu's feet and cried: "The master is wronged, it's not me, it's not me, don't listen to Li Zhutou's nonsense, I have been loyal to my duties for 20 years, and I have never thought about it······"

Li Cheng hissed and shouted with all his might, as if he had a great grievance in his heart.

Li Guolou sneered and said: "Judging from the scene of the crime, the murderer is the deceased Cheng Xiaochun who put himself in the yard, why did Miss Cheng let the murderer into the yard, not because of cheating, Miss Cheng's daughter Lou can't see young men, Miss Cheng usually sees a few older men doing some sundries, such as pruning flowers and plants, Miss Cheng sees people too simply, thinking that everyone around her can be friends, so she and the murderer have long become good friends who can talk, Miss Cheng is going to get married, and she will not be able to see good friends in the future, During the day, the maid watched closely, there was a difference between dignity and inferiority, she didn't have the opportunity to chat with a good friend, so she said to a good friend to come to her attic to talk at night, or a good friend took the initiative to propose, this is possible, but Miss Cheng didn't think that the rivers and lakes were sinister, 10,000 taels of silver bounty, even if she wanted someone to commit suicide, this good friend gave Miss Cheng a fatal knife for a reward of 10,000 taels, Miss Cheng never thought that it was she who brought the sin to herself, and she still held the female red to death, and she didn't look at it! ”

Li Cheng shouted: "Wronged, I didn't kill anyone, how can I get in without the key to my daughter's building!" ”

Li Guolou lowered his head and said with a smile: "Li Cheng, how do you know that the murderer has the key to his daughter's building, could it be that you are on the scene!" ”

"Oh······" Everyone was in an uproar, and they all understood how the murderer entered his daughter's building, only the murderer himself knew.

"I'm me, I'm listening to Mr. Chang." Li Chengyou quibbled with himself, gritted his teeth and refused to admit murder and robbery.

"When did I say that if I didn't find out, would I talk nonsense?" The chief steward Chang Shikuan roared angrily, eager to kill Li Cheng, but was caught and dragged by the next arrest.

Li Guolou took out the bamboo hoop from his leather bag, and the mandarin duck playing in the water on it was about to be completed, leaving only a pair of mandarin ducks with two eyes that were not embroidered, and said with a smile: "Li Cheng, do you remember that Miss Cheng showed you the embroidery picture when she was dying, did you praise a few words, or stabbed the knife directly!" ”

"Li Zhutou, you just talk nonsense." Li Cheng didn't bother to glance at Li Guolou, turned his head to the side, and looked like he would rather die than give in.

Li Guolou smiled and said: "Li Cheng, don't you know that you have to stab your heart to kill someone, so that you can be fatal with a knife, and if you stab you in the stomach with a knife, you won't die immediately!" ”

Without a response, Li Guolou said to himself: "Li Cheng, you stabbed Miss Cheng in the stomach, and Miss Cheng also left you a souvenir, do you know, you can wash the blood, but you still have this gift with you!" ”

"What." Li Cheng asked involuntarily.

Before everyone came to their senses, Yelia interjected and shouted: "Embroidery needle, Miss Cheng inserted the embroidery needle into Li Cheng's braid!" ”

"Ah······h Li Cheng couldn't bear it, and couldn't help but reach out to touch the braid on the back of his head, and the two catchers next to him hurriedly grabbed Li Cheng's hands, and Aihai Li Cheng touched the braid, and sure enough, he found an embroidery needle.

"Li Cheng, what else do you have to say?" Ai Hai asked excitedly.

Li Cheng was paralyzed on the ground and said weakly: "I confess, Miss Cheng was killed by me, I wanted to get rich and wanted to go crazy, count me unlucky, the red diamond was not found, even if you beat me to death, I don't have a red diamond!" ”

Li Guolou raised his hand and pointed upwards and said, "Li Cheng, did you put those stolen treasures into the crow's nest!" ”

"Yes." Li Cheng was powerless to answer, annoyed and remorseful, waiting for him would be torture and death,
