Song Ruilong took his eyes off Zhang Hongli's chest and asked, "Please tell me how that gangster came to your house early this morning and how he committed the murder?"

When Zhang Hongli remembered that scene, her heart trembled, her nose was sore, and tears flowed down her cheeks to the ground.

Song Ruilong couldn't bear to interrogate Zhang Hongli, but he had to know what happened, otherwise, how could he try the case fairly?

Song Ruilong said: "This county knows that it is a little cruel for you to recall that period of time, but in order to hear the case clearly, and in order to give your husband a fair verdict, this county hopes that you can tell what happened."

Zhang Hongli sobbed and nodded, "That's good, the woman said." Early this morning, when the rooster crowed three times, the woman suddenly heard movement in the yard and shouted a few times, but no one answered. The woman didn't pay much attention to it, and thought that her husband was back, so she said in the bedroom, Qingrui, are you back? No one outside agreed. When the woman opened the door to the bedroom, suddenly a man in black put a knife against the woman's neck and said, don't speak, if you dare to shout, I will kill you. The man put a knife against the woman's neck, but the woman did not dare to move, let alone call for help. I could only obey the man's arrangement, obediently lay on the bed, and unbuttoned my pajamas...... And then the man in black ......"

Song Ruilong said: "When the man in black was committing the murder, your husband rushed in from outside the bedroom door and stabbed the man in black in the back of the heart with a dagger, right?"

Zhang Hongli nodded and said, "Hmm! If it hadn't been for the timely arrival of the woman's husband, the woman's chastity would have been lost, and the man would have ...... his clothes at that time."

Song Ruilong interrupted her and said, "Mrs. Liu, please don't be sad and sad anymore. Things are over, and the county just wants to know a little bit about the situation. ”

Song Ruilong got up and said, "Okay, you have a good rest here, the county still has something to do."

Zhang Hongli got up and sent Song Ruilong out of the room and said, "Slow down, adult."

When Song Ruilong came to the living room on the first floor, Liu Qingrui was sitting on a very soft chair in the living room. Seeing Song Ruilong walking down from the second floor, he quickly got up and said to Song Ruilong very respectfully: "Lord Song, Xiaomin's wife, there is no problem, right?"

Song Ruilong said: "She's fine, she's just frightened, as long as she rests, she will recover."

Liu Qingrui's face showed a very pitiful smile and said, "That's good, that's good."

Song Ruilong sat down next to a table, at this time. Wei Bixiao sent over a cup of tea and said, "Brother Song, you have worked hard, drink a cup of tea and moisten your throat!"

Song Ruilong picked up the tea, took a sip with the tea cover, put the teacup on the table, looked at Liu Qingrui, who was standing next to him with his head down, and said, "Liu Qingrui." This county wants to ask you, have you been busy in Qingrui Medicinal Materials last night? ”

Liu Qingrui nodded and said, "Hmm." How could an adult suddenly ask about this? Ah San Ah Liu in Xiaomin's shop, as well as Wang Tai Li Zhong can all testify. Xiaomin has always been very busy in the herb shop. ”

Song Ruilong said: "This county believes what you say. The county asks you again, do you know a woman named Xiao Taohong? ”

Liu Qingrui looked dazed, shook his head and said, "Who is Little Peach?" Xiaomin has never been to a place like Chunyu Tower. Naturally, I don't know any little pink. ”

Song Ruilong pondered: "Then have you ever talked to a person named Du Zhuangwei about the business of medicinal materials?"

Liu Qingrui shook his head and said, "No, Xiaomin never talks about business with anyone. If you want to talk about business, you are also Xiaomin's housekeeper Li Tao. He'll go and contact the major pharmacies, and then we'll just have to ship the goods. ”

"Li Tao?" Song Ruilong repeated Li Tao's name, thoughtfully, and said, "So you haven't seen Du Zhuangwei, the second master of Ping An Pharmacy?"

Liu Qingrui breathed a sigh of relief and said, "This Du Zhuangwei." Xiaomin heard Li Tao mention it, saying that this medicinal herb shop has a very good business, and it will buy thousands of taels of silver from our medicinal herb store every month. Li Tao also told Xiaomin many times that he would give Ping An Pharmacy a lower purchase. ”

"What's lower?" Song Ruilong asked curiously.

Liu Qingrui said: "Lower is five folds." Presumably adults know that in our medicinal materials industry, we can give a five-percent discount to the pharmacy, which is no longer profitable. ”

Song Ruilong said excitedly: "Then did you agree to Li Tao's request?"

Liu Qingrui nodded and said: "That was last night, Li Tao said that he would give Ping An Pharmacy a five-percent discount, Xiaomin was very angry at the time, but after Li Tao finished speaking, Xiaomin agreed, and told him that if you don't take it as an example, Li Tao went to negotiate with the second shopkeeper of Ping An Pharmacy last night." So far, Xiaomin hasn't asked Li Tao how the negotiations were? ”

Song Ruilong said: "You sell the medicinal materials to the Ping An Pharmacy at a 5% discount, and the second shopkeeper of the Ping An Pharmacy is not crazy, as long as you agree here, the business of the medicinal materials will definitely be done." I don't know where this Li Tao is now? ”

Liu Qingrui breathed a sigh of relief and said, "He should be in his own home!"

"Where's his house?"

"No. 18, Kangding Lane, Shunchang Road."

"Good!" Song Ruilong got up and said, "Someone!"

"In!" Outside the door, two officials walked into the living room and said to Song Ruilong.

"Bring Liu Qingrui back to the yamen, and don't let him take a step out of the yamen until this case is clarified."

Liu Qingrui looked at Song Ruilong with some surprise and said, "My lord, Xiaomin is a legitimate defense, and it is the wicked who are killed, so he should not be convicted."

Song Ruilong said: "The county did not convict you, but just brought you back to the yamen to facilitate the county to judge the case, otherwise, the county has thought of something suspicious, do you want to come to your home to invite you?"

Liu Qingrui said: "It's still the adults who are thoughtful, and the little people are willing to go to the yamen with them and cooperate with the adults to figure things out."

After Song Ruilong asked Zhao Zhiliang's body to be carried back to the yamen, he and Wei Bixi went to Zhao Zhiliang's house.

When Wei Bixiao knocked on the door, he smelled the medicinal herbs in Zhao Zhiliang's house.

Wei Bixiao knocked on the door a few times, and there was a woman in her forties with a well-proportioned figure inside the door, who looked at Song Ruilong and Wei Bixiao a little timidly and said, "Are you two going to see a doctor?"

Before Song Ruilong could answer, the woman wanted to close the door and said, "My husband is not at home, if you want to see a doctor, please come back tomorrow!"

The woman was about to close the door, Wei Bixiao pushed her right hand on the side of the door and said, "Auntie, we are the commissioners of the county government, and we want to know a little bit about the situation."

After the woman saw the waist card in Wei Bixi's hand clearly, she opened the door, turned around and said, "Come in with me!" (To be continued......)
