Xu Mantang's reputation in the academy is still very good, he has a good personality, and people know how to be motivated, if all the doubts were not pointed at him, Xuan Shijing would not have doubted that this academy theft case would be committed by such a person with excellent character and learning.

Qian Dui has already contacted Hu Shang who made a move in Yanlai Lou that day through personal connections, and also showed Xu Mantang's portrait to that Hu Shang, at first Hu Shang was reluctant to reveal the seller, but was bluffed and deceived by Qian Dui and let Hu Shang confess.

In fact, it is not a fraud, that Hu Shang acquired the jade unicorn paperweight, although it is a violation of the law, but the paperweight is a royal gift after all, which can be regarded as participating in the sale of stolen goods, as soon as he heard that the case is now being investigated by a marquis in Chang'an City, then Hu Shang will honestly confess.

The second is the case files placed on the Xuan Shijing case.

I have to say that Bai Ze's efficiency in doing things is really high, and in just two days, Xu Mantang was investigated.

Jin Yang sat opposite Xuan Shijing, holding his chin in one hand, and looking at the file on the bookcase with the other: "To be honest, I have some sympathy for this Xu Mantang now."

"What do you see again?" Xuan Shijing didn't raise his head and asked.

There are a lot of dossiers, so Xuan Shijing and Jin Yang are looked at separately.

"Xu Mantang is young and withdrawn, his family is poor, his father died of a serious illness, and his mother barely raised him by doing some washing work on weekdays, and his life is very tight, in this case, he also tried his best to make Xu Mantang literate and read"

"Xu Mantang stole money this time, also for his mother." Xuan Shijing said: "Bai Ze is ruthless, and even Xu Mantang's family letter has been brought. It said that his mother was seriously ill and in urgent need of money for medical treatment. The first time I stole the copper coins in the treasury of the academy, it was a bit too much to start the jade unicorn paperweight the second time. It's not a theft, it's an addiction. ”

"In this way, if Xu Mantang doesn't go for the second time, our case won't be solved" Jin Yang closed the file in his hand and opened a piece of paper.

"It's not that it can't be broken, Skynet is magnificent and sparse, and there will always be flaws."

"Huh? Brother Jing, look at this! Jin Yang handed the paper in his hand to Xuan Shijing: "I seem to know a little bit why Xu Mantang sneaked into the academy's treasury again." ”

"What's wrong?" Xuan Shijing raised his head and saw Jin Yang handing him a piece of paper, so he took it.

The thing on this piece of paper was written by Gao Jun. The news I got from the money pile said that Xu Mantang often lingered in Yanlai Tower today, and it seemed that he was interested in Qin Bingyue.

"Are you saying that Xu Mantang went to Yanlai Tower to see Qin Bingyue, so he went to steal the Jade Qilin Paperweight?" Xuan Shijing said.

Jin Yang: "Not necessarily, the so-called hero is sad about the beauty, Miss Qin has the appearance of a captivating city, it is not impossible for a young man like Xu Mantang to have ideas about Miss Qin, Xu Mantang is not bad for money like Yu Sheng." is not like Wei Licheng who has connections in Chang'an City, so according to Xu Mantang's background, if he wants to see Qin Bingyue. It's not an easy task, even if they can occasionally follow Yu Sheng and Xu Mantang to Yanlai Tower, but what if they don't go? Gao Junke wrote on it. Almost every rest day, Xu Mantang will appear in Yanlai Building. ”

For a more detailed investigation, Xu Mantang. Even Yu Sheng, Wei Licheng, and Bai Ze also checked.

Wei Licheng occasionally visited his home in Jingzhaoyin's Mansion in Chang'an when he was on his day off at the academy. After all, the two are relatives, and in the realm of Chang'an, Wei Licheng still has to rely on others, and Yu Sheng and Xiu Muri not only eat, drink and have fun in Chang'an City, but also make friends with some powerful people in Chang'an City, which is why he has so much money in his hands when he comes to Chang'an.

"Therefore, Xu Mantang went to Yanlai Building by himself when he was on vacation, which is strange, so Qian Dui is interested in this." Xuan Shijing nodded and said, "Find out if there is a specific destination of this batch of stolen money in these materials." ”

With that, the two of them rummaged through the bookcase.

"This should be it." Jin Yang picked up an excerpt: "Generally, Bai Ze likes to write on things like account books. ”

Sure enough, I turned the fold over, and the word ledger was written on it.

When the fold was opened, there were two sums of money recorded inside, the first one was one thousand guan and the second one was three thousand guan, which happened to match the money that Lushan Academy had lost and Hu Shang had bid to buy the jade unicorn paperweight.

"The first sum of money was brought back to his hometown one after another to treat his mother" Xuan Shijing saw that Xu Mantang did not move the first sum of 1,000 yuan of stolen money, and asked someone to take it back in batches.

The second batch of 3,000 guan is a bit complicated, buying all kinds of sundries, such as clothes and accessories, from the accounts recorded, Xu Mantang bought these are the top products in the time-honored shops in Chang'an City, and the cost is naturally not small.

"Looking at these things he purchased, it is estimated that he is really interesting to Qin Bingyue." Xuan Shijing said with a smile.

"I have always felt that Xu Mantang is quite honest." Jin Yang rubbed his chin and said, "I didn't expect it to be hidden deeply." ”

"People can't be disguised, some people, the more honest they are on the outside, the more complicated they are inside, of course, I'm only talking about a small group of people." Xuan Shijing closed the fold: "Since this case has been found out, it can also be over, it is estimated that Xu Mantang never expected that it was the jade unicorn paperweight that he shot at, but it hurt him." ”

"Even if there is no Jade Qilin paperweight, with Tengu's ability, it is enough to convict Xu Mantang." Jin Yang said.

"That's not necessarily, the case is about evidence, Xu Mantang is a student of Lushan Academy, and his brain is also a very clever person, without evidence, he has a hundred ways to quibble, but we are helpless, to be honest, I think this case is a little incredible, and it was solved in such a short time." Xuan Shijing smiled and began to sort out the things on the table, which will be important evidence in the public hall of Dali Temple in the future.

"I think it's true that the people under my hands are doing things neatly." Jin Yang said: "The same case, Jingzhao Yin Mansion has been investigating for so long, and nothing has been found, look at Bai Ze and Gao Jun, of course, Brother Jing is also very good." "Jinyang is very pertinent and summarizes the case.

"Haha, son, I see that you are very interested in these things, why don't you tell your father and the emperor to withdraw Jing Zhaoyin and replace you!" Xuan Shijing teased with a smile.

"No, that's because by Brother Jing's side, Brother Jing can always guide his son to think in the right place." Jin Yang said: "If there is only one son, it is estimated that it is really inferior to Jingzhao Yin Mansion." ”

Xuan Shijing smiled and said nothing.

Now that the prisoner knows who it is, it's time to close the case. (To be continued.) )
