"Miss and the beggar were poisoned one after another, I immediately decided that the murderer was the two wandering monks in the monastery, but I was a weak woman, there was the opponent of the two monks, so without hesitation, I took away all the money and property that Miss took out from home, and then rushed into the rain, at that time I thought, since Miss is dead, even if I go back to Cao Mansion, it will be difficult for me to live, and I believe that Fang Buyi must still be waiting outside Chang'an City, therefore, I think with this money, Fang Buyi and I could have escaped to a place where no one knew us and lived a peaceful life, but we didn't go far before we were caught by the officials."

After listening to Lu Ping's words, Su Wuming and the others were very surprised, because from her words, Su Wuming found a little different from the clues they investigated before, that is, the two monks of Huizhen Temple, the two monks said that the wind and rain were too loud at that time, and they didn't hear anything, but what could be said from Lu Ping's mouth was the tea that the two monks brought to them.

It seems that the two monks lied to them in order to avoid suspicion.

Su Wuming originally despised those monks, and felt that their beliefs or behaviors were full of hypocrisy, but now comparing them with the behavior of those two monks, Su Wuming hated the monks even more.

Now, they have all obtained the news and clues that they can get from Fang Buyi and Lu Ping, and as for whether what the two of them said is the truth, it needs to be verified.

After putting the two of them in prison, Su Wuming, Pei Xiu and others hurried to Huizhen Temple.

At this time, the pedestrians on the street are thinning, each household is lit with cooking smoke, the evening dusk of this mid-spring is full of poetry, the group came to the Huizhen Temple, immediately surrounded the Huizhen Temple, but when everyone rushed in, they were stunned.

The Huizhen Temple was empty, and the two monks didn't know when, they ran away without a trace, and they knew that their lies would not last long, so when everyone neglected to take precautions against them, they fled in a hurry.

Su Wuming, Pei Xiu and the others regretted it very much, if they had thought of this earlier, these two monks would not have escaped.

However, Pei Xiu was not very angry after seeing the two monks fleeing, but smiled indifferently: "Since they escaped, then send someone to chase it, the two monks are old and can't escape far." ”

The officials were quickly assigned, and at this time, it was already dusk, and after Su Wuming and Pei Xiu separated one after another, they each rushed to their own mansions.

On the way home, Tang Xiong asked, "Brother Su, are the murderers really those two monks?" ”

Su Wuming thought for a while and said, "How is it possible, they have no motive to kill." ”

Tang Xiong nodded, the two wandering monks, whether they were with the beggar or Miss Cao, they didn't know each other, they really didn't have to have any motive to kill people, and if it was for money, but in the end they didn't get the money, Miss Cao's money was all taken away by Luping, if they killed people for money, how could they let Luping escape?

Then the only explanation is that someone coerced or used those monks to poison the beggar and Cao Ying in the water, and after the death, the two monks were afraid in their hearts, so they fled in a hurry.

There is nothing to think about in this matter, all they have to do is to arrest the two monks, and everything will be known as soon as they ask. And the two old monks going out of the city are easy to be discovered and easy to leave an impression, Su Wuming believes that as long as Pei Xiu's subordinates do not procrastinate, they will be able to find the two monks tomorrow.

It's just that if those two monks are not murderers, who is the real murderer, why would he think about killing the beggar and Cao Ying?

Or is it that the murderer wanted to kill only one of the two of them, and the other was just killed by the pond fish.

If you think about it this way, this case is clear, first of all, if the murderer wants to kill the beggar Duan, the suspicious person is someone from Cao Mansion, Cao Fu knows Du An's identity, and knows better how his arrival will affect their Cao Mansion, so in order to allow Cao Ying to marry Chai Yunzhong smoothly, and in order to protect their Cao family's reputation, they are very likely to attack Na Duan.

And if the murderer wants to kill Cao Ying, then that Chai Yunzhong is very suspicious, he is a son with broken sleeves, he likes men rather than women, if he wants to marry Cao Ying, wouldn't he let him suffer alive, and he has no other way to get rid of this family business, the only thing he can do is to kill people.

And with the strength of these two families, it is simply too easy to coerce and lure the two monks.

When he got home, it was getting late, Jiang Ying had already returned, and after he saw Su Wuming, he said: "My lord, what Chai Yunzhong was doing at the time of the murder has been investigated, he was drinking with a few rich sons at the time, and this lowly duty has also been determined, so Chai Yunzhong has an alibi." ”

Su Wuming nodded after hearing this, and if Chai Yunzhong is not the murderer, then the only suspect is Cao Mansion, and if the people of Cao Mansion are really murderers, then they are afraid that this time the behavior will be a little more than worth the loss, because they wanted to kill Du An, but in the end, they even killed the young lady of their own family.

But is it really possible that the people in Cao Mansion are murderers, looking at their appearance, it seems that they want to solve the case as soon as possible, but do they really want to solve the case as soon as possible? Set a time limit for Su Wuming, is it to force Su Wuming to give up this murder case?

Cao's Mansion is a very mysterious place, it is not strange for them to do anything, and there are so many dead soldiers in their mansion, any one of them can complete the task that Cao Man told to get rid of Duan.

Su Wuming kept analyzing all kinds of things in this murder case, and gradually, he found that he had figured it out, but he felt very trance, and Su Wuming spent the night in this kind of understanding and trance.

In the afternoon of the next day, Pei Xiu sent news that he had arrested two monks from the Huizhen Temple, and when they were caught, they looked very embarrassed, and they did not have the calmness and fearlessness that a Buddhist person should have.

Su Wuming took people to the government and interrogated the two monks with Pei Xiu.

The two monks, Huiqing and Huineng, knelt on top of the hall, kowtowing and begging for mercy like ordinary people, their appearance made Su Wuming even more disdainful, and after snorting coldly, he asked: "According to the investigation of this official, the tea that the two deceased drank was brought by you, but is this so?" ”

Huiqing and Huineng originally wanted to die and not admit it, but when Su Wuming mentioned Lu Ping, they had no choice but to nod and admit it, but although they admitted that the tea was served by them, they did not admit that they gave the poison.

"Please be aware that the two of us really didn't poison the tea, that night my brother and I were about to rest, but at this time, the maid called us up and asked us to get her water, we didn't want to do this, but the monks were compassionate, so we brought them a bowl of water, as for how they were poisoned, we really don't know!"

Hearing this, Su Wuming snorted coldly, the monks were compassionate, but they didn't want to do it before, these two old monks still had a little bit of the heart that a monk should have?

And at this time, Su Wuming began to wonder if what the two of them said was true, the poison must be in the water they served, in addition to the fact that they could touch the teapot, there was also Luping, if the poison was not put by the two monks, it was Luping, but after the teapot was brought out, Luping had a chance to poison the tea?

Thinking of this, Su Wuming asked, "After you brought the tea out, you left immediately?" ”

"Yes, after bringing the tea to the donors, we left, and we didn't bother to bother with the quarrel they had later......

"The tea was poured by that maid from Luping?"

"It doesn't seem to be, it was the young lady who poured it herself, and the maid was carrying a package at the time, and she couldn't spare her hand!"

Lu Ping's package Su Wuming has also seen it, it is a package that is not very big with money, how can it not be free? And just when Su Wuming thought like this, he suddenly understood that Cao Ying must have brought a lot of things with her when she ran away from home for the first time, money, daily necessities, and even her favorite gadgets.

If Lu Ping hadn't touched the teapot at all, then the poison must have been given by these two monks.

But the two monks refused to admit it, which was really helpless, and asked the two monks, but they said that there was no one else besides them, so it could not be anyone else who poisoned them.

After escorting the two monks down, Su Wuming said to Pei Xiu: "Obviously, it is already a murder case that is about to be investigated, but in the end, we found that it is still like falling into a cloud and fog, it seems that we still have enough clues." ”

Pei Xiu felt the same way, and just as the two were talking like this, a servant hurriedly came and said that Lu Ping, who was being held in the prison, said that she had something to tell them, and she thought of a clue.

After bringing Lu Ping here, Lu Ping hurriedly said: "Two adults, the slave maid thinks that those two monks are really suspicious, when I went to call them to prepare water for the young lady, I heard a burst of coquettish anger from their room, my lord, do you think the two of them will hide the woman in the Huizhen Temple, that night in order to prevent this secret from being discovered, they ruthlessly wanted to poison us?" ”

There was coquettishness in the house of the two monks, which was indeed very suspicious, and after Pei Xiu bowed slightly, he immediately sent someone to investigate.
