Chapter 134: The slave commits suicide
Books?
Li Canghai's eyes suddenly lit up, this is a good entry point, as long as you find the account book, you can't worry about Wang Buquan?
"You might find out where he put the ledger?"
Chang Feng scratched his head a little embarrassed, "I've only heard about this matter, whether it's or not is another matter." ”
"My brother still settles accounts, Zuo Hongji, as a businessman, will definitely have a record." Li Canghai pondered.
"My lord, there's one more thing that I think is very strange." Chang Feng hesitated for a moment, but decided to speak.
"What?" Li Canghai supported his chin with his hand.
"I just heard Zuo Hongji say that he was robbed by bandits two years ago, and I remembered something. Back then, when we went to clear out the bandits, there were only a few minions in the entire cottage, and we easily broke through it. Later, the ropes that bound the people were found in the cottage dungeon, but the people who were tied up were nowhere to be found. Now that I think about it, could the person who was tied up be Zuo Hongji? Chang Feng wondered.
Hearing this, Li Canghai suddenly felt that he seemed to have grasped some key points.
He combed through what the two said, and the time and place were extremely consistent, but the two did not meet, which was a little strange.
Zuo Hongji said that he was saved by Wang Buquan, which is certain.
Chang Feng said that the king did not let them kill the thieves, but he hid behind, which is also certain.
So the question is, if Zuo Hongji was saved by Wang Buquan, then why did Wang Buquan hide it from everyone?
"Who came up with the Bandits?" Li Canghai pondered for a moment and asked.
"Wang Buquan."
Li Canghai chuckled lightly and immediately guessed the approximate situation.
"What are you laughing at, sir?" Chang Feng looked puzzled.
"If my guess is correct, this should be a good play directed and acted by Wang Buquan. He colluded with the bandits, arrested Zuo Hongji, and then proposed to exterminate the bandits, and while you went to suppress the thieves, he secretly rescued Zuo Hongji. Li Canghai squinted his eyes and said.
Chang Feng's eyes widened, "But what is the purpose of him doing this?" ”
"When you see their relationship now, you should guess his purpose."
"But he didn't know Zuo Hongji at that time!" Chang Feng is incomprehensible.
Li Canghai smiled indifferently and said, "I haven't seen it, but I've heard of it." You also said that the Zuo family has been a businessman for generations, and they are quite wealthy, and they are a well-known rich gentry in Zhengyang City. ”
Chang Feng suddenly realized that Wang Buquan did this, not only to eliminate the bandits, but also to make Zuo Hongji fall a great favor.
"Damn, this guy is also treacherous." As soon as Chang Feng thought of being used as a gunman, he had no karmic fire in his stomach.
"Wang Buquan has gone around such a big circle, I'm afraid it's not just to win over Zuo Hongji. If you want to get rid of Wang Buquan completely, you must have conclusive evidence. Li Canghai thought of the servant being kicked and stunned by him, and felt that this matter was by no means as simple as it seemed on the surface.
"Don't worry, my lord, I will try my best to collect evidence." Chang Feng clenched his fists with both hands and said solemnly.
"Chang Feng, you go to the prison and ask the domestic servant again, I think he has something to say yet." Li Canghai groaned.
Chang Feng nodded, and then left the left house.
At this point, it's late at night.
Li Canghai paced back and forth in the pavilion, thinking about how to divide Wang Buquan and Zuo Hongji.
Wang Buquan is scheming, and Zuo Hongji trusts him, without conclusive evidence, Zuo Hongji will definitely not believe what he says.
After thinking about it for half an hour in the gazebo, just as he was about to go back to the house to sleep, Chang Feng suddenly ran over in a hurry.
"My lord, something happened, the servant died."
Li Canghai stopped and hurriedly asked, "What's the matter?" ”
"I don't know what happened, but when I arrived at the prison, the servant was already dead of rage." Chang Feng wiped the sweat from his forehead and said.
"Where is the corpse now?"
"Still in prison."
A ray of light flashed in Li Canghai's eyes, and he said in a deep voice: "Let's go, let's go and have a look." ”
Zhengyang County Prison.
Li Canghai covered his face and followed Chang Feng in.
"Brother Chang, what about the work?" A jailer rubbed his hands together and asked eagerly.
Chang Feng pointed to Li Canghai behind him and said, "Ah, this is the new man." ”
"Why is he covering his face?" The jailer asked, confused.
"I've been feeling cold lately, and I'm afraid I'm going to infect you, so I'm covering my face. Pls where is the body, I'm going to have an autopsy. Li Canghai coughed deliberately a few times and said in a hoarse voice.
The prisoner died suddenly in prison, and if this was traced, the jailer would inevitably be punished, and he was not interested in who he was, he only asked him to prove that the jailer's death had nothing to do with him, so he let him be Amitabha.
The jailer hurriedly led the two to the innermost felon's cell, pointed to the corpse lying in the cell, and said, "This is the corpse." ”
Li Canghai raised his feet and walked in, the previous servant had been dead for a long time at this time, his eyes were wide open, his expression was painful and hideous, and a lot of blood flowed from his mouth.
Squatting in front of the corpse and observing it carefully, he said in a deep voice: "The deceased's body temperature is still there, and the time of death should not exceed two hours." ”
Breaking open the corpse's mouth with his hand, Li Canghai's brows suddenly furrowed.
"What did you find?" Chang Feng saw that his brows were tightly locked, and he hurriedly leaned his head over, but when he saw it, he gasped: "Why is his tongue broken?" ”
"The base of his tongue is broken, and it seems that this is the cause of his death." Li Canghai looked at the half of his tongue in his mouth and said.
Chang Feng resisted the urge to vomit, he swallowed hard and said, "In this way, he killed himself by biting his tongue." ”
Li Canghai didn't speak, he took out tweezers from his cloth bag, pinched out half of the tongue in the deceased's mouth, put it in front of his eyes and looked at it for a while, and shook his head involuntarily.
Seeing him pull out his tongue from the corpse, the corners of Chang Feng's mouth twitched violently a few times, and the jailer couldn't help but run to the corner and vomit.
"What are you doing, sir?" Chang Feng saw him take out his tongue and put it in a cloth bag, which was a little strange.
"Extract evidence for examination." Li Canghai put away the cloth bag and said in a deep voice.
"My lord, since it is certain that he committed suicide, is it still necessary to test?" Chang Feng was a little puzzled and asked in a low voice.
"How do you know he's committing suicide and not being killed?" Li Canghai rolled the deceased's eyelids with his hand and asked rhetorically without raising his head.
Chang Feng scratched his head and said, "Isn't it obvious that you committed suicide by biting your tongue?" ”
Li Canghai smiled slightly: "What you see with your own eyes may not be true, you go and ask the jailer what abnormal behavior the deceased had before he died." ”
Chang Feng stood up and asked the jailer, "Winter melon, let me ask you, did the deceased behave abnormally before he died?" ”
