Chapter 154: Reversal
Li Rizhi opened the back door of the Chu family's garden, the small door is not big or high, it is exactly one person tall and one person wide, if it is a slightly fatter person who wants to enter this back door, I am afraid that he will have to use the method of squeezing.
Li Rizhi looked out of the door and saw that there was a small alley outside the door, this small alley was not too narrow, about six or seven steps wide, not too long, it was the length of the Chu family's courtyard, and on the opposite side of the alley, there was also a wall, and there was also a small gate on the wall, which was about the same height and width as the small door of the Chu family, and it was repaired face to face!
It can be said that when you come out of the back door of the Chu family's garden, you only need to walk a few steps and open the small door on the opposite side to enter another house, but you don't know whose house is on the opposite side.
Li Rizhi walked out of the back door, stood in the alley, looked left and right, it was an ordinary alley, but it smelled a little stinky, presumably someone had defecated in this alley.
Li Rizhi frowned, entered the garden again, and beckoned to the old man of the Chu family, who came over and asked, "This son, what do you command?" ”
Pointing to the small alley outside, Li Rizhi said loudly: "Are there often idle people waiting here to come over to defecate, this is not very safe, was it like this before?" ”
He spoke loudly and slowly, and the old man of the Chu family could hear what he was saying. The old man shook his head and said, "It used to be like this, there were always people running into this alley to excrete......"
Fu Guibao and others nodded together and excreted, this word is used well, it is too vivid!
The old man said: "My wife is a person who loves cleanliness, the smell here is too strong, and the smell enters the garden, so Mrs. found someone to write a line on the wall, and the animals excrete here, my lord said that this belongs to the category of notices, so I want to write literary language, but my wife said that those who come here to excrete are vulgar people, and I must not understand the literary language, so it is best to write in the vernacular!" ”
Everyone nodded together, they were already scolding so badly, the beasts excreted here, and no one should come!
The old man continued: "However, there are people who lead donkeys and horses, and even bring pigs and dogs here to excrete, and the lady is half angry!" ”
Li Rizhi sighed and said, "Why, how can someone lead a donkey and a horse...... Ah, got it! He understood the meaning of this, and immediately cried and laughed.
Fu Guibao and Cheng Zizi also understood, and they all laughed, the beasts defecate here, those people must have misunderstood the meaning of these words, thinking that this small alley is a place for donkeys, horses, pigs, dogs and other animals to urinate!
Li Rizhi also smiled, and he said: "Then what about later, how did this matter be solved later!" ”
The old man said: "Later, my lord said to the county magistrate of this county, and the county magistrate sent people to arrest a few people who came here to defecate, and beat the board, and no one dared to come in the future, it was clean for a while, and now there are people here to defecate, it's too unusual." ”
Li Ri knew: "It seems that scolding is useless, you still have to beat." Who lives in the house opposite, the house is not small, it seems that it is also an official eunuch's family, right? ”
Then he said this faster, and his voice was not too loud, and the old man did not hear it clearly, so he had to repeat it again.
The old man sighed, shook his head and said: "It's not an official, it's a businessman, surnamed Jin, very rich, Mrs. Jin and my wife have a good relationship, and they often move around, and they go through this back door." ”
Li Rizhiqi said: "Isn't this back door always closed, and someone usually uses it?" ”
The old man nodded, isn't the door just for people, even if it's the back door, it's also to be used!
Li Rizhi looked carefully at the small door opposite, thought about it, and did not knock on the door, but closed the back door of the Lin family, and he began to stop and go in the back garden.
After looking for a long time, Li Rizhi didn't find anything suspicious, he focused on looking at the fence of the garden, hoping to see on the fence, such as shoe prints, such clues, generally speaking, this kind of clues are very useful. However, the fence is quite clean, and there are no footprints or other traces.
Just when he felt that he couldn't find anything, Chen Yingying suddenly said: "Come and see, there is a dog hole here, it's quite big!" ”
Li Rizhi hurriedly went over, and saw a small hole under a rockery against the wall, which looked like a dog hole, and looked carefully, this small hole seemed to have existed for many years, and it was not newly dug, and there was a small amount of moss growing at the entrance of the hole.
After Li Rizhi saw the dog hole, he called the old man again and asked him to see the dog hole, the old man was surprised, and it was obvious that he didn't know that there was such a hole in the back garden, if he knew, it would have been plugged a long time ago!
After finding this dog hole, he didn't find any other clues, Li Rizhi had no choice but to say goodbye and took everyone out of the Chu family, but he told the old man that he might come back in a few days, the old man didn't care, he was idle, anyway, Chu Qiangyuan let him see, then let Li Rizhi see it, he didn't know that he was deceived.
After leaving the Chu family, she didn't go far, and Aunt Shang followed, looked at Li Rizhi with a blank eye, and asked, "Master Li, have you found anything that can prove that the murderer is not my son?" ”
Li Rizhi shook his head and said: "Not yet, how can it be so easy, however, I think your son is not telling the truth to you, he may be hiding something, so tomorrow, I want to go and see him again and ask things more clearly!" ”
Aunt Shang was stunned for a moment, she said: "How, how is it possible, Wen Bin and he have been sentenced to death, how can you not tell the truth!" ”
Li Ri knew: "Sometimes, if you don't tell the truth, you can overturn the case, for example, now, if you tell the truth, it may be difficult to overturn the case, but it's not necessarily, let's go to prison tomorrow morning, you just wait for us at the door of the inn, you don't have to wear this kind of clothes to pretend to be pitiful, it's meaningless!" ”
He waved his hand at Mrs. Shang, and the group went back to the inn, Mrs. Shang stood on the street alone for a long time, then sighed and went back to her own home.
After returning to the inn, Li Rizhi called Fu Guibao into his room and said: "I think Shang Wenbin may not be the murderer, but he may also think that he is wrong, I feel that he seems to be hiding something, we had better find out, but because this case has already been decided, so if we help Aunt Shang, then it is equivalent to going against the county order of this county, you think about it, do you want to investigate this case?" ”
The meaning of Li Rizhi's words is obvious, even if he knows that this case may be a miscarriage of justice, it is not very certain, and whether this case can be overturned or not, he will eventually offend the county order.
If the case is not overturned, a group of scholars who went to Beijing to take the exam question the government affairs of the magistrates, and they also questioned the mistakes, not only will the magistrates repair them, but when the news spreads to Beijing, it will also cause disgust among other officials, which will be greatly detrimental to the future of the scholars!
Among these people, Chen Yingying doesn't care, she doesn't participate in the scientific examination, and it doesn't matter if she is free, even if he is not an official, he can go back to Xingyang to study medicine with Li Zhengchun, Fu Guibao is a little worried, but he also knows that he is worried in vain, because he still doesn't know his level, unless he hits the luck just happens, if he wants to pass the exam, then it can only be in a dream!
But the whole beam is different, he is not related to Aunt Shang, why should he help Aunt Shang? Of course, it was him who was troubled at the time, he was enthusiastic, he didn't wash his ass clean, anyway, he regrets it now, he feels that it is not worth taking such a big risk to help Aunt Shang, because even if he helps Aunt Shang, what benefit can he get?
After Li Rizhi finished speaking, Quan Shufang lowered his head and was silent for a long time, and when he raised his head again, he saw that everyone was looking at him, he sighed and said, "You, what do you think about this?" ”
Li Ri knew: "Since it's managed, then, let's continue to manage!" ”
Fu Guibao and the others also nodded, this matter has come to this point, just take care of it!
Quan Shufang glanced at Li Rizhi and thought: "You were recommended to Beijing by the state, and you caught up with Gao Zhi'er, of course you are not afraid, and your good friends, I don't call you big brother, I call you senior brother, and there is a daughter-in-law who has so much money that she doesn't know how much she doesn't know, they don't care about the scientific examination, so you don't have back pain when you stand and talk, I am very likely to be admitted, and my family and I also very much hope that I will pass the examination in this subject, so I can't play with you!" ”
Quan Shu said: "I really want to help Mrs. Shang investigate this case, but the time to go to Beijing is very urgent, I'm afraid of delaying my studies, after all, I went to Chang'an to catch the exam, it's better to wait for the exam, let's come to Huayin again and help Mrs. Shang investigate the case?" ”
Fu Guibao said: "You must have not washed your buttocks, so your brain is not clear, after going to Chang'an to finish the exam, and then waiting for the results, then Shang Wenbin has already been cut off, you can have a fart to use again!" ”
Quan Shufang shook his head and said, "That's not as good as this, I'll go ask other classmates and see what they mean!" ”
He can get the first place in the Zhengzhou exam, of course he is not a fool, he doesn't want to help with this, but let him say it himself, there is always a way to lose chivalry, not to mention that this matter was provoked by him, he himself is not easy to say, so if other classmates say it together, then it will be no problem, there are many people, and there is always a reasonable reason to shirk this matter.
After Quan Shufang finished speaking, he immediately walked out of Li Rizhi's house, he felt a little ashamed, but then he thought, who knows if Shang Wenbin was wronged, if not, then why waste so much effort for no reason, if it really affects which classmate's exam, wouldn't it be a big sin!
Fu Guibao sneered in the back and said, "This guy who doesn't wash his ass even went to find a helper!" ”
Li Rizhi shook his head and said: "Don't say that, in fact, I am not sure to overturn the case for Shang Wenbin, and looking at Aunt Shang's appearance, she doesn't look like a person who will be grateful, helping the mother and son of the Shang family is not necessarily beneficial, but whether it is success or failure, there will definitely be disadvantages, all the classmates are wise to protect themselves, and it can't be said that he is wrong!" ”
Fu Guibao said with a smile: "I know that you are really good-tempered, if it were me, this surnamed Quan would go back on his word, and he would be able to make trouble but he couldn't afford it, I had to taunt him, this guy who doesn't wash his ass!" ”
Suddenly, Li Rizhi remembered that many years ago, when Fu Guibao had just entered Shangyang Academy, he had defecated under the shadow wall at the gate of the academy, and he sighed, why did Fu Guibao always have trouble with things related to his ass!
Li Ri knew: "Don't talk about it yet, let's go to the front first, and when they all refuse, let's do it ourselves!" Seeing Hunting Xinxi, I'm interested in this case, but let's just go and investigate it secretly, and we don't have to make a big fuss! ”
Fu Guibao nodded and said, "Big brother is right!" ”
They went to the front together, in the dining hall, Quan Shuwen had already told the matter, none of the scholars were stunned, what kind of consequences would there be when they encountered this kind of thing, how could they not be clear, and besides, they originally thought that Quan Shuwen was troublesome, and now that Quan Shuwen has shrunk by himself, of course they have to watch the excitement.
Contrary to the intention of the whole text, the scholars unanimously agreed that this case should be investigated!
