Chapter 19: Murder
Tonight's events can probably only be regarded as hors d'oeuvres, and it is estimated that in a few days, Guo Jin, a bald man, will be the first to attack the Li family.
Li Fengwu couldn't figure it out, Liu Xiang had eaten the gall of an ambitious leopard, and let Zhu Wenxiu open fire if he didn't figure out the situation, wouldn't he be afraid of lifting a stone and hitting himself in the foot, he Liu Xiangzheng was only a fourth-grade Taichangqing, and the first- and second-grade officials above the court were like carp crossing the river, not to mention the cardinal minister Zhang Jun, the left minister Chen Kangbo, the right minister Shi Hao and the like, just take a political affairs or six books, it is not something that he can provoke Liu Xiangzheng, who has failed to leave a thin name in history.
It is not strange to be unknown in the history of officials in the Southern Song Dynasty, after all, there are no capable ministers after Xiaozong of the Southern Song Dynasty.
Li Fengwu stayed awake in bed all night, and gradually sorted out his clues.
Perhaps, Liu Xiangzheng already knew that the Li family's backer in the court was Zhang Jun?
In the thirty-second year of Shaoxing, after Xiaozong ascended the throne, Yue Fei was rehabilitated, Hu Quan's official position was restored, and Zhang Jun was reused as the Jianghuai Xuanfu envoy.
Under this general trend, Zhu Wenxiu's knowledge of Jiankang Mansion is meaningful, and the most important role is to restrain Zhang Jun.
Therefore, it is reasonable for Zhu Wenxiu to give the Li family a horse as soon as he arrives in Jiankang, who calls you a certain lady of the Li family is a relative of Zhang Jun, don't you Zhang Jun want the Northern Expedition, I will do something everywhere to make you unhappy.
Knowing the twists and turns in this, Li Fengwu suddenly put his mind at ease, there is still some time before the failure of the Northern Expedition Zhang Jun's resignation, no matter how much Zhu Wenxiu tosses, he has to be careful, it is estimated that he will only watch Guo Jin and Guo Bald make a move, after all, the identity of the emperor's relatives is even more difficult to parry.
The Li family has been restless this year.
Cold, there is still half a month from the Spring Festival, the first snow of the year, compared to the past this is a late snow, fluttering and fluttering only one night, Jiankang City will be covered in silver, shrouded in a snow-white world.
Li Fengwu woke up very early, wanted to get up early, and took Zhu Zhao'er to enjoy the snow outside the city, but he was knocking on the door of Zhu Zhao'er, but he saw Li Bo stumbling into the west courtyard, sitting in front of Li Fengwu, his face was blue and he shouted: "Something is wrong, something is wrong!" ”
Li Fengwu helped Li Bo up, "What's wrong?" ”
Li Bo couldn't care about the bumps in his body, and said urgently: "The little official is not good, Zhuang Baba is dead." ”
Last night's heavy snow, Li Fengwu estimated that the temperature was below zero, even in the 21st century, freezing to death is not a new thing, and in ancient times when the conditions were backward, there would occasionally be slaves freezing to death in large families, "Frozen to death?" It's okay, you can ask the account office to get more money for Zhuang Bawa's family at that time. ”
Li Bo stumbled and sighed: "It wasn't frozen to death, it was killed, and the body was in the third lady's room!" ”
,!
Li Fengwu's heart sank suddenly, now it is an eventful time, Li Fu can't stand a little toss, not to mention a slave who was killed in Sanniang Zhang Yousu's room, a bad one is going to be in prison.
Hurriedly asked, "What's the matter, you say slowly." ”
Li Bo took a breath and said, "The third lady got up early this morning, saying that she was going to go out of the city with the second lady to enjoy the snow, but after the cuizhu girl waited for the lady to wash, she saw Zhuang Bawa lying in a pool of blood behind the screen. ”
Li Fengwu nodded, "Is the third lady okay?" ”
"The third lady was frightened and rested in the second lady's room, accompanied by the senior official and the two ladies."
Li Fengwu didn't care about Zhu Zhao'er, who opened the door, turned around and walked towards the east courtyard, just two steps, Li Bo asked urgently: "The big official is worried about the third lady, and he has no time to tell the old servant, do you say that we want to report to the official?" ”
"Reporter?" Li Fengwu paused and sneered: "I'm afraid that the official arrest of the government will soon arrive at our house at this time." ”
Sanniang Zhang Yue is well-read, and he will definitely not do such a thing as murder, he can think of it with his feet and knees, this is someone who is making trouble and framing him, and he counts with his fingers in Jiankang City, Zhu Wenxiu and the general judge cannot take the risk of burying his career, only Guo Bald has this suspicion.
Guo Jin's shot is really ruthless.
Now the plan is to try to protect the scene, find some clues as much as possible, and find out the real culprit, otherwise Sanniang will go to prison or even be beheaded, and this may lead to Zhang Jun blaming his father, once it gets to that point, the Li family will not be far from the destruction of the family.
Walking into the east courtyard, there were many maids and servants gathered in the courtyard, pointing at Sanniang's room.
Li Fengwu instructed Li Bo not to let the idlers and others get close to Sanniang's bedroom, and he pushed open the door and walked in, Zhuang Bawa's body was still placed in place, but there was no blood in the room, and there was only a small amount of black blood under the corpse.
Sanniang's room is huge, everything has never been moved, the screen is separated from the bed, if you don't go behind the screen, you really can't find the body, Li Fengwu endured nausea and nausea, squatted down to check the body carefully.
The fatal wound was in the chest, a small round hole, which pierced directly through the heart.
Zhuang Bawa was facing the sky with her back, her face was like white paper, her originally delicate facial features were distorted at this time, looking extremely hideous, and there was a lot of blood stains between her teeth.
Li Fengwu took out the piece of paper and glanced at it, and was suddenly a little surprised, it was actually a poem on the paper, Li Fengwu immediately smiled, what a coincidence, it turned out to be this poem.
Stuffed the paper back into Zhuang Bawa's arms, got up and looked around, found that the window was slightly open, pushed open the window and looked at it, sighed, even if there were footprints, it was covered by heavy snow.
It's a pity that the Southern Song Dynasty did not have Bao Zheng, who was like a god, and there were no four famous arrests in the six doors, so this murder case is not easy to investigate.
There was a rush of footsteps, and a government catcher in his early thirties walked in with four catchers, caught a glimpse of Li Fengwu in the room, and immediately frowned and shouted: "Who are you, don't destroy the crime scene!" ”
Sure enough, someone really reported to the official......
Li Fengwu took two steps back and said, "Don't worry about Wang Zhutou, the scene is intact." ”
Wang Tong, the head of the Jiankang Mansion, Li Fengwu has heard a lot of rumors about him on weekdays, he is a righteous and clean official, he has a reputation in Jiankang, has solved many big cases, and has a unique set of case-handling methods.
This time, if Sanniang wants to clear her grievances, this king is extremely important.
The only thing I am worried about is that this Wang Catcher will be influenced by the new Jiankang Prefect, and he is afraid of losing his position as a headcatcher and is perfunctory, and I only hope that the rumors in the room that he is jealous and hateful are true.
Wang Tong waved his hand, "Don't do your business, stand aside, don't obstruct the public from investigating the case." ”
Li Fengwu lowered his hand and pushed aside, "Wang Zhutou, please." ”
Wang Tong was a little surprised, remembering that there was also a homicide in the home of a certain official in the west of the city last year, and the son of the big official vomited on the ground when he saw the corpse.
