Seeing that Gillian didn't admit her relationship with Mo Qi, Hua Lang took out Mo Qi's portrait and said, "You look carefully and see if you recognize this person?" ”

Gillian glanced at it, and then shook her head again and again and said that she didn't know him, and after making sure that Gillian said she didn't know, Hua Lang smiled coldly: "But some of us have investigated that he often comes to you and is your most frequent guest, but you say that you don't know him, obviously there is a ghost in your heart, this Mo Qi was killed not long ago, I think he was killed by you, right?" ”

Hearing Hualang's words, Gillian suddenly knelt on the ground in fright, and begged for mercy again and again: "Spare your life, spare your life, I didn't kill anyone, I really didn't kill anyone, this Mo Qi...... I recognized Mo Qi, but I didn't kill him."

Hua Lang and the others naturally expected that Gillian was not a murderer, and what they said just now was just to scare her, but now that they saw that she was much more obedient, they continued to ask: "Since he is your guest, he wants to come and know you very well, right?" ”

Gillian glanced up at Hua Lang slightly, and then nodded: "It's quite familiar, he's a thief, and basically doesn't have a home, so if I don't have any guests here, he stays with me." ”

Everyone saw that Gillian actually took in a thief, and they were a little disdainful in their hearts, but if you think about it carefully, they are all hard-working people, and it makes sense to support each other, in any dynasty, this is the case, if two people are really together, their status is often ineffective.

Hua Lang didn't want to ask more about Gillian and Mo Qi, so he directly put the question on Mo Qi and said, "Before Mo Qi was killed, did you give you anything?" ”

Gillian thought for a while and nodded: "He did put something for me before he was killed, but it was a book, I couldn't read, so I didn't care much, so I threw it under the bed casually, I laughed at him at the time, how a thief also learned to read, he said I didn't understand at the time, but I didn't bother to understand." ”

Gillian said, she couldn't help laughing, then slowly came to the bed, took out the book, and after taking it out, said, "Look, it's this book." ”

Hua Lang took the book and opened it and read it all night, and after reading it, he was immediately surprised, it turned out that the book turned out to be the account of the government office, and in this account, there were many loopholes and deficits, and all the deficits pointed to the experience of Chen Jucai in the prefect's yamen.

Experience is the chief of the government experience department, in charge of the government cashier, etc., is the easiest to get in touch with money, Li Jingan is an honest official, although there is not much treasury silver in the government, but Chang'an City is a big city after all, as early as the Tang Dynasty, the population has exceeded one million, as Taiping today, the number is even more, so if Chen Jucai wants to embezzle, it is still very easy.

Through the study of that account book, they found that in addition to Chen Jucai, many people in the government were more or less greedy for ink, including Na Du Shi, as the cook of the government office, he was the closest to the prisoners in the cell, so it was easy to do something unrighteous for money.

After seeing this, Li Jingan was immediately furious and said, "I really didn't expect that under the governance of this official, this kind of thing would happen." ”

Hua Lang frowned slightly, picked up the account book, and said: "Lord Li, now is not the time to talk about this, that Chen Jucai is in the mansion, and he is very well-informed, he must know what happened to us here this time, so he must be thinking about escaping, let's go back quickly." ”

Li Jing'an felt that Hua Lang was reasonable, so he nodded hurriedly and rushed back with people, but halfway through, Hua Lang suddenly stopped: "Slow, let's go to the mansion now, I'm afraid it's too late, Chen Jucai got the news, he must go out of the city, where do we wait at the city gate, and then there is, the place where Du Shi was found, also sent someone to wait, just in case, send a few more people to Chen Jucai's house to see." ”

After this order, everyone went to their respective assigned places, Hua Lang and Li Jingan and others went to the city gate, but after they went to the city gate, they did not meet Chen Jucai, so they waited at the city gate, about half an hour of lanterns, a servant hurriedly ran over, saying that they found a little clue at the entrance of the cave where Du Shi was found, and thought that Chen Jucai had already left the city.

Hearing this, everyone felt that they underestimated Chen Jucai, so without hesitation, Hua Lang asked Yin Wufu to call those friends in the rivers and lakes and go out of the city to hunt down Chen Jucai, and after this order, the official who went to Chen Jucai's house rushed to say that Chen Jucai's house was empty.

It happened suddenly, but fortunately, Hualang and the others were not slow, so before dusk, those friends in the rivers and lakes had already pulled Chen Jucai and all the money he was greedy for ink back to Chang'an City.

This Chen Jucai can be regarded as the biggest tiger in Chang'an City in recent years, so as soon as he heard that Chen Jucai was arrested, the people came to see it, although this matter was disgraceful to the government, but Li Jingan needed to use this to deter others, so he did it in a similar way.

After being promoted, after several inquiries, Chen Jucai confessed all, he first talked about his greed for ink, in fact, his greed for ink is roughly the same as the process of many corrupt officials greedy for money, nothing more than did not withstand the temptation, and then he was out of control, and slowly fell into it.

After saying this, he told the story of the murder, the history of the murder was very bizarre, how many people died, but after calculation, he turned out to be a person who did not kill.

It turned out that after Chen Jucai hid the account books, he thought that he could use this to threaten others, and then make everyone huddle together, but who would have thought that Mo Qi was so bold that he actually stole his home, and after stealing the account books, he even wanted to use the account books to blackmail Chen Jucai, and asked Chen Jucai to meet in the abandoned house in the west of the city.

This is a big deal, but Chen Jucai has no way, he can only go, maybe he hesitated for too long, and after he went to the abandoned house in the west of the city, he found that Mo Qi was dead, but after searching Mo Qi's whole body, he didn't find the account book, thinking that it might have been obtained by the murderer.

At that time, he was very uneasy, thinking that the murderer might blackmail him at any time, and within a few days, Lin Shifei was arrested as a murderer, although Lin Shifei did not confess to him, but he was very afraid, so he let Du Shi poison Lin Shifei's food, and kidnapped Du Shi's family afterwards, so that Du Shi would bear all the crimes.

After listening to Chen Jucai's words, Li Jingan was very angry, in order to prevent this kind of thing from happening again, he punished Chen Jucai severely, of course, all the people involved in this matter could not escape.

Although there are many people, they are all moth-eaten and can't stay.
