Volume 1: The Husband Chapter 38 A String of Grasshoppers (I)

Everyone listened to her restoration of the case, and couldn't help but be amazed.

Lan Zhou asked, "Then how could the corpse of the Qin family appear in the Zhao family's well again?" Could it be that the Qin clan deceived the corpse and went back to take revenge? ”

"It's a corpse!" Qing Ruxu showed a perceptive smile: "After the Qin clan was hit hard by the yellow bird, he didn't die, he just fainted and closed his breath. Huang Sanyuan took her home and placed her in Huang Ying's courtyard, and locked up all his subordinates. So the Qin family woke up in the middle of the night and jumped out of the coffin and no one found out, so they managed to escape from the Huang family. ”

Bai Jingze was a little surprised by Qing Ruxu's clear thinking, and couldn't help but show a look of appreciation: "There is a routine curfew in the capital, and the city gate is opened at three o'clock on the fifth watch, and the Qin family rushed to the city gate, and as soon as the city gate opens, they will go out of the city to Changping County, but she and Huang Ligu died in the early morning, and they should have rented a carriage, otherwise, there is no way for her to rush back to Changping County before dawn." ”

"Well, this point, we can check with the people who guarded the city that day after we return to Beijing."

Bai Jingze nodded and said: "When I return to the capital later, I will go to the soldiers who guarded the city that day to inquire as soon as possible, and then go to the carriage and horse shop to ask if any coachmen have carried the Qin family." ”

Xiong Yishan looked at the tacit interaction between Qing Ruxu and Bai Jingze, and couldn't help but bump Liang Chen with his elbow, "It's over......"

Liang Chen's face turned dark, and he secretly looked at Jiang Rin's face with his spare eyes, but saw that his son-in-law was smiling, but his eyes were cold, and his heart couldn't help but twitch, is the son-in-law jealous? Impossible, right?

Xiong Yishan looked at Bai Jingze, then at Qing Ruxu, and quietly asked Liang Chen with his eyes: "What should I do?" ”

Liang Chen touched his nose and gave him a "shut up" look, he didn't want to add another five hundred prostrate steps......

Qing Ruxu didn't notice the strange appearance of Jiang Rin's master and servant, and continued: "The Qin clan is very familiar with everything in the Zhao family, and they easily entered the courtyard. She probably didn't want to kill the oriole at first, but just wanted to go back and vent. But when she returned to Zhao's tofu shop in the early morning, she found that Huang Li was the only one there. At that time, she probably didn't think that Zhao Qian was dead, but thought that Zhao Qian was not at home. She suddenly thought that if there was no Huang Li, she would be able to live with Zhao Qian. Otherwise, her man died, and she was still pregnant with Zhao Qian's child in her belly, how should she live in the future? ”

So, she didn't stop doing anything, and strangled her while the frightened Huang Li, who had not slept all night, and then hung her on the beams of the house, disguised as self-hanging, and planned to leave with Zhao Qian afterwards.

But she didn't expect that Zhao Qian was already dead. Perhaps because he wanted to drink saliva or wash his face, Qin saw Zhao Qian's body in the well. Her husband died, her concubine also died, she had just killed someone, and she still had an unknown child in her belly, and for a while she only felt that the sky was dark and there was no way to live. I couldn't think of jumping into the well to accompany Zhao Qianzuo. ”

Everyone sighed when they heard this, the death of these three people can be said to be caused by many days of grudges and coincidence.

Bai Jingze pinched the stones that Jiang Rin gave him and said, "Huang Sanyuan found that the body was missing the next day, so in order to hide people's eyes, he made up a lie and told the people in the government that he just put some stones in the coffin and carried them back. However, there are traces of the source of such things as stones, and he can't find them from the capital, so he has to ask people to send some stones from the Zhao family to the house to prove his lie. ”

Xiong Yishan smoothed out the cause and effect in his heart: "So, the five people who died before and after are actually two cases!" ”

"Two cases?" Shizhou exclaimed.

Qing Ruxu agreed: "That's right, the death of Zhao Qian's husband and wife and the Qin family was because Liu Dabao's death caused an imbalance in the relationship between several people, and because of various coincidences, they died one after another, and there is no direct connection with Huang Ying's death before. ”

"In other words, Huang Ying's death is not sure whether it was Liu Dabao or Du Wenxian."

"Liu Dabao is dead, so I can only try my best to find Du Wenxian and ask clearly."

The time was not early, Qing Ruxu had to go back to Lord Liu's house to find her grandmother, she didn't want Bai Jingze to know her true identity, so she excused herself to have something to do, and took Lan Zhou and Shizhou back to Liu's house, saying that she would contact her after returning to the capital.

Xiong Yishan saw Bai Jingze's "affectionate" eyes and saw Qing Ruxu leave, and kept scratching his head and rubbing his hands, Jiang Rin glared at him, "You have lice on your body?" ”

"Huh? No, there is no ......."

Bai Jingze sent away his "Little Brother Song" and said to Jiang Rin with a smile: "I just thought that Little Brother Song was a good person, but I didn't expect him to be so smart, but after asking a few people, I told the whole case to the truth!" It seems that it is necessary for me to communicate more with Brother Song in the future! ”

Jiang Rin said lightly: "Yes." ”

The corners of Liang Chen's mouth twitched, Childe is jealous, right? Right?

Bai Jingze didn't realize it, and praised Qingru as a rare one in the sky and unparalleled on the earth, as if he was praising himself. Only then did he remember and ask: "By the way, Brother Jiang, will we ask when the Qing family will go back in a while, and you will still accompany you to protect it, right?" ”

Jiang Rin ignored it and only said, "If you have something, you can go back first." ”

"It's okay, it's okay, I'll go wherever Brother Jiang goes!"

Jiang Rin was noncommittal, but Xiong Yishan stared at Bai Jingze's smiling eyes unhappily, eager to pick out his eyeballs, so that he could no longer stare at Gongzi's future daughter-in-law in the future!

………………

When Qing Ruxu returned to Liu's house, the old lady took a nap at Liu's house and just got up, after all, she was old and couldn't bother like a young man, when she heard that Qing Ruxu was back, she hurriedly asked her to ask: "Where is Jiang Rin?" ”

"I guess he's going to be busy."

The old lady looked awkward at her, smiled and patted her hand, and didn't ask any more questions. As soon as the matter was over, he took Qingru to say goodbye to the master's family, and prepared to go to the small temple that he passed by to the Bodhisattva to make a vow.

The group got into the carriage and settled down, when they saw Jiang Rin riding over. The old lady lifted the curtain, "Your business has been done?" ”

Jiang Rin dismounted and saluted: "Yes, the affairs of the juniors have been dealt with, and it is just right to return to the capital with you." ”

The old lady was even more satisfied: "Okay, then let's go!" ”

Not mentioning the matter of worshipping the Bodhisattva in the temple, everyone just returned to the capital and the pedestrians talked about it.

"Have you heard, the murderer of the murder case has been caught!"

"Huh? When was this? Is it the one named Du Wenxian? ”

"That's right, it's him, someone found his traces this morning and reported to the official, Lord Jingzhao Yin Qin immediately sent someone to search for his traces and catch him!"

"He killed all five of these lives?"

"I don't know, but there are rumors that Du Wenxian has revenge on the Huang family because of Huang Sanyuan's repentance......"

Bai Jingze was riding on a horse, and was shocked when he heard these words: "Du Wenxian was caught?" ”

Jiang Rin's face also changed slightly, Qin Siyuan was not a soft-hearted person.

I don't know how many years it has been since there has been such a major case in the capital. Five people died at one time, which made the people panic, and even the emperor was alarmed, and ordered the government to find out the case within ten days, so Qin Siyuan and other subordinates have been busy recently, and they are bent on Du Wenxian's tracking and arrest.

This time, Du Wenxian finally fell into the hands of these people, and it was inevitable that he would be tortured to extract a confession, in order to close the case in the fastest time.

Bai Jingze obviously also knew something about Qin Siyuan's personality, and said hurriedly: "Brother Jiang, what should I do?" Although Du Wenxian is still suspicious, he may not be the murderer of Huang Ying, tomorrow is the ten-day period, Qin Siyuan will definitely interrogate him overnight, he will have to shed his skin if he doesn't die, and it is possible to beat him into a trick. ”

Jiang Rin pondered for a moment and said: "For today's plan, I first have to find Du Wenxian to ask about the cause and effect, presumably you can talk to Jing Zhaoyin, it is better to quickly find a way to meet Du Wenxian and ask him where he has gone during this time, but someone can prove that he was not in Changping County in the days when the crime occurred." ”

"Brother Jiang is right, without further ado, I'll go."

Bai Jingze went to find Qin Siyuan like a burning buttocks, Qing Ruxu heard the sound of talking outside in the carriage, and couldn't help but say to his grandmother: "Grandmother, I remember that there is something I want to say to Jiang Gongzi, grandmother might as well go back first, I will go to Songhe Hall to greet you when I go home later." ”

Originally, after tossing for a long time, the old lady was worried that she couldn't stand it and didn't want her to get out of the car, but thinking that she and Jiang Rin could finally talk, this is the capital, and nothing will happen, so she said: "Then you go, let Lan Zhou and Shizhou take care of you." ”

"I know Grandmother!"

Qingru Xu got out of the carriage and asked Bai Zhu and Mo Shan in the carriage behind to accompany her grandmother back to the house first, and asked Jiang Rin, "What are you going to do?" ”

Jiang Rin took the horse aside, raised his eyebrows slightly and asked, "The sons of the family who were injured in your hands before, if not ten, but also eight." I didn't expect you to be a bodhisattva? ”

The corners of Qing Ruxu's mouth couldn't help twitching, wasn't it because of you that they were beaten? "It's they who find the beating...... Du Wenxian is different, since he knows that he may not be a murderer, he can't watch him fall into prison at a young age and ruin his life. "She knows too much about the preciousness of life.

Jiang Rin smiled when she heard her say this: "Don't worry, I will find a way to save him." ”

Qingru Xu was stunned, looked around and looked at other places, and didn't look at Jiang Rin's face, as if talking to the air: "Didn't you tell Bai Jingze that you just arrived at the Imperial City Division, shouldn't you be in the limelight?" ”

Although Bai Jingze's identity is not low, he has no official position or position, and it is okay to find out the news, but if he wants to meddle in that case, he is afraid that it is not good. And you, are you going to show your face in front of the Three Law Divisions? ”

"I ...... Of course I can't ......."

"So, you can rest assured to go back, and I will take care of this matter."

Qing Ruxu listened to the meaning of this, how could she feel that Jiang Rin seemed to be standing up for her, she pursed her lips, and her drooping eyes finally raised and looked at Jiang Rin.

At this time, he stood in the afterglow of the setting sun against the light, and the thin clouds only depicted his outline, but it was impossible to distinguish his expression at this time. The long wind traced back between the two of them through the towering towers, rolling up their sleeves and making a hunt.

This scene reminded Qing Ruxu that before she died, the light projected from the sky firmly enveloped Jiang Rin, she wanted to see him for the last time, but she could never see his face clearly, whether she was sad or expressionless, or, glad that she died......

She was unwilling to fall into the void, the darkness, which ruthlessly separated her from him.

Qing Ruxu didn't notice that tears were already welling up in her eyes, and Lan Zhou's exclamation and Jiang Rin's stunned inquiry came from her ears, she turned around abruptly and walked away quickly......
