It was a summer morning when the official went to Su Mansion to inform the news, so it was not very hot, but everyone hurried behind Su Wuming, and it didn't take long for them to sweat profusely.

When I entered the Sun Mansion, there was a lot of crying inside, and a few old slaves couldn't cry anymore.

Qian Sheng was already waiting, and at this time, he frowned and looked worried because of the three murders in Qiantang County.

When Qian Sheng saw Su Wuming, he hurriedly greeted him and said, "Master Su, you are finally here, this is ...... What should I do about this, there have been three murders in a row, if it is not solved, this matter will spread to the capital, this ...... I'm afraid that my position as a county magistrate will be lost! ”

Su Wuming's brows furrowed slightly, and he asked as he walked: "Isn't there a government official monitoring here, why did you let the murderer succeed?" ”

Qian Sheng's face was sweating profusely, but he didn't dare to wipe it, and followed Su Wuming and said tremblingly: "That official surveillance, it is impossible to say that he will not leave Sun Si for a moment, not to mention that this Sun Mansion is also a deep mansion compound, and the official can't enter at all, and looking at Sun Si's death, it should also be poisoned and died, this is ...... This is not something that the official could have predicted! ”

After Qian Sheng finished speaking, Su Wuming and others had already entered Sun Si's bedroom, and Sun Si's corpse was lying on the bed, his face was distorted, facing the door, everyone was shocked when they came in, Su Wuming glanced at it, and knew that he was poisoned and died, and Sun Si's body had already appeared corpse spots, indicating that he had been dead for several hours.

After examining the corpse, Su Wuming looked at Qian Sheng and asked, "Who found the corpse first?" ”

Qian Sheng pointed to a maid and said, "It's her!" ”

The maid trembled, Su Wuming glanced at her and comforted: "Don't be afraid, tell me how the body was found!" ”

The maid nodded, and then said: "This morning I came to call the son to get up, but shouted a few times and did not respond, and the door was locked inside, I was a little worried, so I reported to the housekeeper, the housekeeper listened, and immediately the celebrity knocked the door open, after the door opened, we saw the corner of the child's mouth bleeding and his eyes stared at the direction of the door, we were all frightened. ”

After the maid finished speaking, the butler standing aside nodded again and again, saying that this was indeed the case.

Su Wuming frowned and asked, "What did Sun Sidu eat last night?" ”

"Childe doesn't eat much at night, he said that eating at night is not good for his health, so he only drinks a cup of medicinal tea."

"Medicinal tea?"

"Yes, it is our son's ancestral medicinal tea, after drinking it, it can promote sleep and enhance physical fitness, because the materials are very expensive, and we have no chance to taste it."

"Who can touch the medicinal tea?"

"Except for our son-in-law, no one else can, but after the son-in-law is finished, he will order someone to bring him to the house."

"Who served the medicinal tea last night?"

The maid who first discovered the situation looked nervous, and said in a low voice that the slave servant was serving.

Su Wuming glanced at the maid and asked, "Did you meet anyone on the way to serve medicinal tea?" ”

"No, but after the medicinal tea was served to Childe, Childe didn't drink it immediately, he asked me to put the medicinal tea on the stone table in the courtyard in front of the door and let it be cold, he had to wait until it was cold before drinking, and the slave maid put the medicinal tea on the stone table and left!"

Now it is the height of summer, and the medicinal tea is naturally drunk after it is cold, that is to say, on the way to the cold of the medicinal tea on the stone table, someone secretly put poison in the medicinal tea.

But who in Sun Si's mansion would want to kill him, if you want to kill him, why wait until this time?

Thinking of this, Su Wuming immediately instructed Qian Sheng: "Send someone to investigate and see if anyone is missing in the Sun Mansion!" ”

The investigation soon had results, a new medicine slave in the Sun Mansion disappeared, according to the housekeeper of the Sun Mansion, the medicine slave is called Sandezi, about twenty years old, he has just come to the Sun Mansion for three days, so he is only responsible for some relatively basic work, because there are many people in the house, no one pays much attention to him.

After knowing this, Su Wuming immediately painted a famous person, and then sent someone to find that medicine slave Sandezi, it was so strange that he disappeared at this time, even if he was a fool, he knew that he was very suspicious.

After giving this order, Su Wuming and the others left the Sun Mansion.

And just when a few people left Sun's Mansion and walked on the street, they suddenly found that Cheng Yu was leading Uncle Yun to rush out of the city, which made Su Wuming feel very strange, so he asked Wen Wan'er and them to go back first, while he and Tang Xiong quietly followed them.

At this time, the sun was shining, and the whole Qiantang was sultry, Su Wuming and Tang Xiong followed Cheng Yu and Uncle Yun for a long time, and finally saw them come to a cemetery, the two walked around the cemetery, and finally stopped at a grave full of wild grass, after Uncle Yun removed the weeds near the grave, he put down the sacrifices he brought, and after placing the sacrifices, Cheng Yu suddenly knelt down in front of the grave, and then cried hoarsely.

Su Wuming and Tang Xiong were a little far away, so they couldn't hear what Cheng Yu said, but occasionally a few words came into their ears, so after listening intermittently for a while, they understood a little bit.

It turned out that the person buried in the cemetery was Cheng Yu's mother, that is, Cheng Zhi's concubine, she had been dead for several years, today was her death day, Cheng Yu came here to worship, and when Cheng Yu worshipped, he said about the sins and discrimination he suffered in Cheng Mansion, these things are okay not to say, but as soon as he said it, he touched the sadness in his heart, and finally couldn't hold it, so he cried with a whimper.

Cheng Yu cried hoarsely, and Uncle Yun was a little reluctant to watch from the sidelines, so he kept comforting Cheng Yu, and finally persuaded him, and even he sobbed.

The two of them cried for half a pillar of incense, and finally Cheng Yu was supported by Uncle Yun and left, after the two of them left, Su Wuming and Tang Xiong appeared in front of the grave, at this time the paper money in front of the grave had been burned out, and the wind blew up ashes in the sky, and there was no monument on the grave, thinking that Cheng Yu's mother was not valued by Cheng Zhi, so even if she died, she did not make a name for her.

Tang Xiong looked at the tomb for a long time, and finally asked with some puzzlement: "Brother Su, what is there to see about this tomb?" ”

Su Wuming smiled: "Since you don't think there's anything to look at, then let's go back!" ”

When I went back, it was already noon, and not long after everyone finished lunch, Qian Sheng's subordinates came to inform Su Wuming, saying that they had caught that Liu Fei.

This news came a little suddenly, and Wen Wan'er Nangong Yan and the others already felt that this Liu Fei was dispensable.

However, since he was caught, it was better to ask, so Su Wuming and the others went to the county office.

Entering the county office, Qian Sheng greeted him with a smile and said, "Master Su, this Liu Fei was caught by us, is it possible for him to kill someone?" ”

Su Wuming smiled but didn't answer, after seeing Liu Fei, he looked him up and down first, and saw that he was burly, dark-skinned, if you look closely, he is still a little handsome, but at this time, he looked arrogant, and he didn't take Su Wuming in his eyes at all.

Su Wuming smiled lightly, looked at Qian Sheng and asked, "How did you find him?" ”

"Master Su, this guy didn't leave Qiantang County at all, he hid in an abandoned house, causing us to look for it outside the city!"

Su Wuming bowed slightly, then looked at Liu Fei and asked, "You killed Cheng Feng?" ”

Liu Fei looked at Su Wuming coldly, and then said coldly: "No!" ”

"Since you didn't kill Cheng Feng, then what are you running away from?"

Su Wuming couldn't answer Liu Fei's question in one sentence, and after a long time, Su Wuming continued to ask: "Say, what is your relationship with Cheng Die?" ”

"I ...... We have nothing to do with each other, I'm just a buddy in their shop! ”

"Then why did she let you escape?"

"She didn't let me escape, I wanted to run away on my own."

"Why?"

Su Wuming's words stopped Liu Fei again, and he couldn't answer Su Wuming's question at all.

Su Wuming smiled lightly, and then ordered someone to go to Cheng's Mansion to call Cheng Die.

When Cheng Die was taken to the county office, her expression was very calm, as if the kneeling man in front of her was just a guy in her shop.

After Cheng Die came to the county office, Su Wuming didn't say a word to her, but only ordered the officer: "Fight, fight until this Liu Feiken answers the question truthfully!" ”

Su Wuming's words were plain and calm, but they sounded terrifying, and after the officials received the order, they immediately picked up the board and hit Liu Fei.

Liu Fei was beaten all over his body, but he gritted his teeth and refused to scream, and the officials knocked him unconscious twice, but he still refused to say anything.

And when Liu Fei was knocked unconscious for the first time, Cheng Die's expression was already a little flustered, and when Liu Fei was knocked unconscious for the second time, she was already a little unbearable, looking at Su Wuming and said: "I thought that Master Su was a good and honest official who relied on evidence to speak, but I didn't expect that you were also a person who relied on torture to solve the case, which really disappointed the people of Qiantang County." ”

Facing Cheng Die's questioning, Su Wuming smiled slightly: "If Liu Fei is an innocent person, Lord Ben will naturally not treat him like this, but now he is a suspect in killing your eldest brother, and he escaped when we were looking for him, how can you stop without teaching him a lesson?" ”

After Su Wuming said this, he motioned for those officials to continue fighting.

In this way, Liu Fei fainted for the third time, and then, the official brought a basin of cold water to wake him up, and he was about to be whipped again.

But at this time, Cheng Die finally couldn't hold on, she suddenly waved her hand to stop the servant, and then glared at Su Wuming and said, "If you want to know anything, I'll tell you!" ”

Su Wuming smiled lightly: "If Miss Cheng had been like this, then Liu Fei would not have suffered such a big crime, okay, let me ask you, what is your relationship with Liu Fei?" ”

"It doesn't matter, it's just the relationship between the boss and the buddy!"

Su Wuming's brows furrowed slightly, and he suddenly shouted: "Keep fighting!" ”
