Chapter 135: Important Information
The next day, in the prison of Wuchang Mansion, in the wing room where Li Hongyu and Li Renhe saw Li Hongyi last time.
Li Hongyi sat at the wine table and devoured the sumptuous dishes on the table, and Li Hongyu sat opposite with a frown, looking thoughtful, as if thinking about something.
"Second brother, are you sure that Xu Tao said that you kicked him before he hit you?" After a deep groan, Li Hongyu raised his head and asked Li Hongyi, whose mouth was full of food.
"Hongyu, I recalled it carefully these days, and Xu Tao said before he moved, 'Dare to kick me in the back and find death!' ”
Li Hongyi nodded when he heard this, chewed the food in his mouth a few times, and swallowed it into his stomach before saying, "The situation was chaotic at that time, I didn't pay attention to his words before, and I accidentally thought of this detail. ”
"Could it be that someone from your side kicked him?" Li Hongyu's brows furrowed slightly, and he asked quietly.
"Probably not."
Li Hongyi thought about it carefully and shook his head, "Although everyone was entangled together at that time, the position where I was standing was closest to Xu Tao, and it was behind him, and the others were either on either his side or far away from him, if the people on our side kicked him, he should find people on both sides to settle accounts." ”
"In that case, this kick was kicked by their own people." Li Hongyu bowed slightly when he heard this, and said thoughtfully, this is an extremely important piece of information.
"It should have been kicked by their people, and the people who stood behind Xu Tao to persuade him to fight were from their side." Li Hongyi thought about it carefully, affirmed Li Hongyu's statement, and then asked with a concerned expression, "Hongyu, is this related to the person who framed me?" ”
"Persuasion?" Li Hongyu was stunned for a moment when he heard this, he didn't know about this matter before, so he asked curiously, "Who did Xu Tao have a conflict with?" ”
"Chen Morui!" A depressed look flashed on Li Hongyi's face, "The two had a conflict before, and this time they drank again, so they quarreled very fiercely after meeting, if it weren't for the situation on the scene between the two of them, it wouldn't have become chaotic." ”
"Do you remember how many people were standing behind him?" Li Hongyu bowed slightly when he heard this, and then asked in a deep voice, although the fuse of the conflict in Mingyue Pavilion was Li Hongyi and Xu Tao, but what intensified the matter was the contradiction between Xu Tao and Chen Morui.
"It's not clear, the situation was too chaotic." Li Hongyi shook his head, his expression was a little depressed, he ignored such an important detail, otherwise he might be able to find the black hand who framed him.
"Second brother, do you have any clue about the sachet?" Li Hongyu smiled when he saw this, Li Hongyi had already provided a very important piece of information, and then asked.
"I took a closer look and was eighty percent sure that the sachet was on me before I went to bed." Li Hongyi pondered for a moment and replied solemnly, of course he didn't dare to joke about this matter related to his fate.
"Second brother, let me tell you a happy event, my mother was named a seven-grade widow by the emperor and became the wife of the imperial court." Li Hongyu saw that the atmosphere at the scene was a little dull and depressing, so he smiled and said to Li Hongyi, "With this relationship, it will be much easier to turn over the case in the future." ”
"Seven Rank Ruren!" Li Hongyi was taken aback, this was a great honor, and then he remembered something and asked repeatedly, "Is it because of that money?" ”
"I got a sum of money in exchange for a holy decree from the emperor, this business is really cost-effective." Li Hongyu couldn't help but smile, and didn't hide his purpose in front of Li Hongyi.
"I thought you were ......" Li Hongyi's face changed when he heard this, he thought Li Hongyu was crazy before, but now it seems that he was wrong, Li Hongyu's vision is much longer than his.
"Second brother, money is something outside the body, the eldest husband can't be without power for a day, money is nothing compared to power, it's just a pedal to a higher level of power." Li Hongyu smiled, not only Li Hongyi, but many people thought he was crazy and an out-and-out loser.
Li Hongyi was stunned when he heard this, and looked at the high-spirited Li Hongyu with a look of disbelief, never imagined that Li Hongyu would say such utilitarian words, compared with before, it was like two people, which made him feel an inexplicable fear in his heart.
"Second brother, don't worry, you will be fine, I will definitely find out the person who framed you." Li Hongyu noticed Li Hongyi's surprised look, smiled slightly and said.
He wanted to make Li Hongyi realize that he was not as weak as he seemed before, and then caused a panic and suspicion in his heart, which was a punishment for Li Hongyi who bullied him before.
What is especially important is that Li Hongyu wants Li Hongyi to know who the real master of the Li family is, and he wants to take this opportunity to convince Li Hongyi in one fell swoop, so that there will be a lot less unnecessary trouble, and he doesn't want to spend unnecessary energy for the internal affairs of the Li family in the future.
In fact, the information provided by Li Hongyi was very important in Li Hongyu's opinion, which made Li Hongyi narrow down the scope of the murderer to the Changsha Mansion students who participated in the Mingyue Pavilion conflict that day, and the number of these people was not large, only five.
Therefore, Li Hongyu must go to see Fang Yun, if he wants to know the situation at the scene of the conflict that day, he can only ask Fang Yun for help, otherwise he will definitely startle the snake, this is not the result that Li Hongyu wants.
In the evening, in the private room of a restaurant, Li Hongyu and Fang Yun sat opposite each other and drank, the two of them were staggered, talking and laughing, and the atmosphere was very relaxed.
"Brother Fang, there's something I want to ask Brother Fang for help." After three rounds of wine and five flavors of food, Li Hongyu changed his mind and said quietly, "I don't know what Brother Fang thinks of the matter of Mingyue Pavilion. ”
"If both parties hadn't drunk so much, such a tragedy wouldn't have happened." Fang Yun felt a little surprised, shook his head and replied regretfully.
"Brother Fang, don't you think that the things in this case are too strange?" Li Hongyu put down the wine glass in his hand, looked at Fang Yun solemnly and said, "At that time, it was close to the township test, how could my second brother kill Xu Shengren because of a slap?" And he left the sachet at the scene and drew a snake to bring back the murder weapon? ”
"If my second brother is really drunk and killing, then he must be drunk to lose his mind, but then he can't walk normally."
Saying that, Li Hongyu's tone became heavy, "The case of Mingyue Pavilion is full of suspicions, and I have decided to investigate this case to see if it is really my second brother's doing, and give Xu Shengren justice!" ”
"What do you want me to do?" Fang Yun groaned for a moment when he heard this, and looked up at Li Hongyu, he had already realized that there was something about the Mingyue Pavilion case, but because the township test was imminent, he had to give up his doubts about the case, and he didn't think that Li Hongyu would bring up the old matter again.
Fang Yun fully understood Li Hongyu's approach, after all, Li Hongyi was Li Hongyu's cousin, and he should investigate this suspicious case both in public and private.
"Brother Fang, I want to know if there are any private grievances between Xu Shengyuan and the few Changsha Mansion students who had a conflict with my second brother and others at that time." Li Hongyu pondered for a moment, looked at Fang Yun solemnly and said.
"Do you suspect that our people from Changsha Mansion did this case?"
Fang Yun was stunned for a moment, with a look of surprise on his face, because the Mingyue Pavilion case had unreasonable suspicions, the murderer he suspected before was Chen Morui, who had a gap with Xu Tao, and he didn't think about his own people at all.
"There is one thing that Brother Fang may not know, according to my second brother's recollection, Xu Shengyuan seemed to have been kicked from behind before he slapped him, and my second brother, who was behind Xu Shengyuan at the time, said that he cared about the township test so he didn't do it, and he didn't want to stir up trouble, otherwise he would definitely fight with Xu Shengyuan."
Li Hongyu knew that this matter was a bit unbelievable, and he also suspected that the case was related to Chen Morui, after all, Li Hongyi was called by Chen Morui, so he explained in a deep voice, "Except for my second brother, the person standing behind Xu Shengyuan is your Changsha Mansion, so the person who kicked Xu Shengyuan is undoubtedly your person, I don't think he will kick the wrong person in such a short distance!" ”
"Is there such a thing?" It was the first time Fang Yun heard about this matter, and he couldn't help but show a surprised look on his face, if things were really as Li Hongyu said, then the person who kicked Xu Tao must have ill intentions and deliberately intensified the contradiction.
"Brother Fang, if you want to verify the authenticity of this matter, it is very simple, you can ask the people who were present at the time, if Xu Shengyuan is kicked, he will definitely slap the footprints on his body." Li Hongyu said in an orderly manner when he heard this, "But this matter must be carried out in secret, so as not to startle the snake." ”
"There's someone you can trust." Fang Yun knew what Li Hongyu meant, but he didn't want this matter to alarm the possible murderer, so after thinking about it, he said, "One of Xu Tao's sworn brothers was also at the scene at the time, the two were friends in the family, they grew up since childhood, and they had a deep relationship, and Xu Tao wanted to marry his sister after the township test, so he would never murder Xu Tao." ”
"Who is this person?" Li Hongyu's eyes suddenly lit up when he heard this, and the person Fang Yun said was undoubtedly a breakthrough.
"His name is Wang Hongyun, and he is Xu Tao's future brother-in-law." Hearing this, Fang Yun replied in an orderly manner, "It is precisely because of this that when Brother Zhao came to discuss going to Wuchangwei, he was troubled by him, but he was not Brother Zhao's opponent, and he was quickly defeated. ”
"Brother Fang, can you ask Wang Hongyun out tomorrow, there are some things I want to ask him." Hearing that Wang Hongyun was "repaired" by Zhao Xin, Li Hongyu couldn't help but bow slightly, and then asked.
In Li Hongyu's opinion, the suspicion that Wang Hongyun who failed miserably under Zhao Xin can basically be cleared, because with Wang Hongyun's IQ, he should not have designed such a precise layout of Mingyue Pavilion.
"Okay." Fang Yun nodded when he heard this, and said, "Tomorrow night, it's still this private room, and I'll bring Wang Hongyun here." ”
"There's Brother Laofang!" Li Hongyu picked up his wine glass and saluted Fang Yun.
"Brother Li is polite, I also want to investigate this case and give Xu Tao justice." Fang Yun smiled, touched the wine glass with Li Hongyu, and then the two of them drank it all.
