Yang Qiuchi sighed: "Although this Chunhong girl was born in the dust, her surname is very strong. The Seventh Master shouldn't have succeeded, right? ”

Peng Laoqi was a little surprised, how could this Yang Jue know everything, it seemed that nothing could be hidden from him, and nodded honestly: "Yes, so in a fit of anger, I asked the old bustard to bring Su Ma San to pour it into her, and then the effect of the medicine attacked, and Su Ma fell asleep, so I succeeded." ”

Yang Qiuchi snorted, thinking to himself, if it weren't for the crisp and numb you ordered, how could the murderer be so easy to get it! From this point of view, Chunhong's death, you old boy, can't get out of it, of course, if you kill Chunhong girl yourself, then you can't run away!

As for Peng Laoqi's behavior of using crisp hemp to confuse Chunhong to annihilate silver, if it is placed in modern times, it is a 100% crime of forcible annihilation. Because the two of them have not yet married, there is no question of whether marital annihilation does not constitute a crime.

However, now it is the Ming Dynasty, because concubines are not like the Ming media being married, there is no legal ceremony, since there is no ceremony, it is difficult to judge whether this kind of forcible annihilation is within marriage or outside marriage. Judging from the fact that Peng Laoqi and Chunhong have already said that they have redeemed Chunhong for the Spring Festival, and everyone in the town knows that Chunhong is his future concubine of Peng Laoqi, it can be regarded as a de facto marriage. It is more appropriate for this kind of behavior to be defined as an act of forcible annihilation in marriage, so Peng Laoqi's behavior cannot be regarded as a crime of forcible annihilation.

Yang Qiuchi didn't want to delve into this kind of legal game, what he wanted to find out now was who killed Chunhong Girl and brought the murderer to justice.

Yang Qiuchi asked Peng Laoqi: "What about after you succeed?" ”

"I wanted to stay by her side and take care of her, but my brother strictly forbade me to stay in the Qinglou, so I confessed to my mother and went back."

"When are you leaving?"

"Four more, nearly five more."

Yang Qiuchi's heart moved, this time is also very close to his estimation of the time of death of the deceased, because it is very vague to speculate on the time of death according to the phenomenon of the corpse, and the error within one or two hours is very normal, and the longer the time of death, the greater the error, and the error will be calculated in days or even months. Therefore, it is entirely possible that the deceased Chunhong died when Peng Laoqi left the fourth watch and was close to the fifth watch. In other words, Peng Laoqi is also suspected of a major crime!

Yang Qiuchi said: "Who saw it when you left?" ”

"Mom knows, and the old man who guards the door also sees it. He opened the door for me. ”

Yang Qiuchi stared at Peng Laoqi, and suddenly asked, "When you left, was Miss Chunhong still alive?" ”

Peng Lao Qiteng stood up and opened his eyes wide: "Sir, you can't wronged people at will!" ”

Yang Qiuchi beckoned to him and motioned for him to sit down, before he said, "It's not that the official has wronged you, it's just that you have to prove that you are not the murderer." ”

"Why?" When Peng Laoqi heard that he was labeled as a possible murderer, he suddenly became anxious and asked recklessly.

"Because you're the last person to see Chunhong! After you left, Chunhong was found to have been killed, tell me if you were suspicious? ”

This sentence hit Peng Laoqi's heart directly like a steel knife, and suddenly cold sweat came down, of course, anyone would doubt it, Peng Laoqi straightened his neck and shouted: "But when I leave, the Chunhong girl is still fine!" ”

"Who can prove it?"

"Proof ......?" Peng Laoqi was a little flustered, "The people in the garden should be able to prove it." ”

"Who's in the garden?"

"Then how do I know, I was already gone at that time, but they always have someone to bring water to Chunhong or something, by the way, ask those maid servants, they must have someone go in to see."

"Nope! The first person to go in was Wu Qisan, the turtle who found the body when it was almost noon today. ”

Speaking of this, Yang Qiuchi's heart moved, yes, the last person to see her before Chunhong's death was Peng Laoqi, Peng Laoqi was suspected of committing a crime, what about Wu Qisan, who was the first to find the body? Isn't there a suspicion? Could it be that he is a thief shouting to catch a thief? Besides, Wu Qisan happens to be surnamed Wu, and his surname starts with oral characters, which coincides with the box prompt that Chunhong drew with her fingers! I'll interrogate him later.

Yang Qiuchi's sentence was based on Song Yuner's investigation, of course, it is not excluded that someone will lie, such as Xie Deshun just now.

Peng Laoqi saw Yang Qiuchi staring at him strangely, and became even more anxious: "I really didn't kill Chunhong, why should I kill her?" She's my concubine who hasn't been through the door. ”

"You must have a reason to kill him, such as killing her on impulse during your argument."

"She fell asleep after taking the medicine."

"Who gave her the medicine?" Yang Qiuchi estimated that it must have been poured by this Peng Laoqi, because Chunhong is the Oiran of Lichun Garden, the cash cow of the old bustard, and more importantly, Chunhong is the daughter-in-law of Peng Laoqi, the younger brother of Peng Hexi, the biggest rich man in the town, and her old bustard will not offend her.

Sure enough, Peng Laoqi said honestly: "I asked my mother to bring the medicine, and I forcibly fed her by myself." He couldn't talk nonsense about this, because as soon as he asked the bustard, he knew if he was lying.

"When you fed her the medicine, was there anyone around?"

It's not easy to lie about this question, if you want to say that there is, as soon as people ask who it is, they will go through the gangs. So Peng Laoqi thought about it, and still replied honestly: "No, my mother closed the door and left after bringing it to Sumasan, and I forcibly fed her myself." ”

"Hey, how do you feed it alone?"

"She was drunk, and the strength to resist was not very strong, so I pressed her down, broke her mouth and forcibly poured it down."

Peng Laoqi's words can be confirmed by the pressure marks on the mouth and nose of the Chunhong girl, especially the bleeding of the lining of the lips and gums.

Yang Qiuchi said: "After pouring the medicine, how long does it take for the effect to occur?" ”

"Generally about a stick of incense."

"Hehe, the seventh master seems to be very familiar with this medicine, right?" Yang Qiuchi stared at Peng Laoqi and saw that his hair was straight.

Peng Laoqi sneered: "I...... I've heard from others, too. ”

Yang Qiuchi didn't continue to ask this question, still holding on to Peng Laoqi's suspicion of crime, and said, "Seventh Master, what are you doing during this time of incense?" ”

"I ...... I didn't do anything, just sat and begged Miss Chunhong until she had a seizure, and then I did it with her and left. ”

Yang Qiuchi couldn't find the flaw in his words, thought about it, and said, "I need to extract a little of your blood." After that, he took out the blood collection blade and pierced Peng Laoqi's fingers and extracted a blood sample.

Peng Laoqi couldn't understand what Yang Qiuchi was doing with his blood. I didn't dare to ask more, I just hoped that it would help me clear my grievances.

After extracting the blood, Yang Qiuchi said: "Seventh Master, whether what you said is true or not, I need to understand, and I may have something to ask you for a while." You go down first. With that, Xiang Nangong Xiong gave him a look.

Nangong Xiong understood and summoned two guards to stand behind Peng Laoqi.

Peng Laoqi drew a charge on the confession recorded by Song Yun'er, and was about to leave, when he found that the two guards behind him were slightly stunned, he was with Peng Hexi before he came up just now, and no one was guarding him, how did he ask how to ask, it seemed that he had become a criminal and was taken into custody, and turned his head to look at Yang Qiuchi.

Yang Qiuchi sighed: "Seventh Master, you are the last person to see the deceased, she has fight scars on her body, and you also admit that you have had a fight with her, it cannot be ruled out that you were angry, and suddenly killed her by mistake." Therefore, you are suspected of a major crime, and before we find out the truth of the matter, I can only put you in custody first. Excuse me. ”

Peng Laoqi's face turned pale, and he knelt on the ground with a grunt: "Sir, please be aware of it, I really didn't kill Miss Chunhong." I care so much about her, how could I kill her? ”

"Do you care about her? If you really care about her, you won't beat her, you won't overlord the bow, and you won't use such indiscriminate methods as filling and dispersing on her! Yang Qiuchi said hatefully, "Besides, there are many things that are born of love and hatred, quarrels between lovers, and murder in a moment of anger and impulsiveness, and this official has not encountered it." The last sentence Yang Qiuchi said about what happened when he was a modern forensic doctor.

Peng Laoqi looked at Yang Qiuchi helplessly, not knowing what to say.

Yang Qiuchi said: "Seventh Master, you don't have to worry, this official will definitely find out about this case, if it is really not done by you, what do you have to worry about." ”

Peng Laoqi kowtowed: "Thank you, sir!" I beg the Lord to hang the mirror high. Then he got up and went down with the two guards.

Song Yun'er took the confession and asked, "Brother, I'm a little confused now, is it this Peng Laoqi who killed Chunhong impulsively, or is it that Xie Deshun secretly annihilated and killed people?" ”

Yang Qiuchi said: "I am going to do a test now, and according to the test results, I may be able to prove whether what they said is true." ”

"Detection? What kind of test? ”

"You don't understand, so let's interrogate the bustard and compare it with the confession of Peng Laoqi. I'll be in the piano room, and I can hear your questions. ”

"Okay!" Song Yun'er exclaimed happily, although this was not a real lobby, it was enough for her to be satisfied.

Yang Qiuchi carried the forensic evidence investigation box into the piano room and closed the door.

Song Yun'er ordered to bring the bustard.

After the bustard was brought up, she saw that behind the big table was the little girl who had just come to investigate and ask questions, she already knew that this was the younger sister of the lord, and this bustard was the best at observing words and feelings, so she didn't dare to slack off, and knelt down and kowtowed: "The people women visit the lord." ”

Song Yun'er was happy in her heart, hehe, this sentence sounds cool. Song Yun'er said: "Master Ben has a few questions to ask you, you have to answer truthfully, don't deceive, do you understand?" ”

"Yes, the women must report according to the truth." The old bustard replied respectfully.
