"Virgin?" Wang Xu looked at Ling Wanqing in disbelief, looking left and right, how to look at it and feel unbelievable. Huan Jie, who was next to him, was also full of incredulity, but he didn't dare to stare at Ling Wanqing like Wang Xu, glanced at it, and quickly turned his head away.

However, Ling Wanqing didn't please her, she didn't expect that Liu Yi was already an old man, and she could see her details at a glance. Feeling the embarrassing atmosphere in the hall, her face turned red as soon as she swooped, and she quietly turned her head slightly sideways, not wanting people to see her appearance at the moment. This demon girl, who makes all civil officials and military generals in Jingnan jealous, shows the appearance of a little daughter at this moment, which is even more moving. Of course, no one will believe it.

Fortunately, Liu Yi was very embarrassed to see her, and he couldn't bear it, so he changed the topic with a smile: "General Wang, in fact, as far as this case is concerned, the modus operandi is already obvious. ”

As he spoke, Wang Xu and Huan Jie's attention was quickly pulled back, Ling Wanqing was not an ordinary woman after all, she took this opportunity to adjust her mentality in an instant, the red tide on her face slowly faded, and she quickly recovered.

"I don't know how?" Huan Jie couldn't help the eagerness in his heart and asked.

"First of all, the clerk will be transferred around in the hands of high-level officials because of the office, and I am afraid that few people can know where it was at that time. So first of all, it is certain that it is not an ordinary official, a guard, or a servant. Liu Yi said with a smile.

Huan Jie immediately nodded and agreed: "Hmm! Indeed, I'm afraid that even I need to ask before I know where I am at that moment. ”

Hearing this, Liu Yiruo glanced at Huan Jie, and then smiled slightly: "Yes, in this case, how can the thief kill one and the other accurately, and just happen to be able to pounce on the right place?" Needless to say, the guards are on duty during the day, and it is difficult to move freely, and if you wander around, you will inevitably be found suspicious. As for the servants. Although they will deliver meals to officials. But how do you know which official the document is? Is it hard to go in one by one and try it? Or is it that the entire servants of the Taishou Mansion are in a gang? This is clearly unlikely. ”

"As for the officials, they have to be looked at separately. Ordinary officials are not involved at all, and they do not dare to ask, so they can be ruled out. And high-ranking officials, I would like to ask, after the first incident, the whole government is vigilant. Who dares to ask whose hands the paperwork is when they don't need it? That's a hot potato! There are really thieves mixed in, in that kind of situation where everyone is in danger, isn't it self-reporting? I'm afraid it will immediately arouse the suspicion of my colleagues and then report it. ”

Speaking of this, Liu Yi paused, and looked at Wang Xu and Huan Jie, who were frowning and thinking, for a moment. Only then did he smile and continued: "Therefore, it is impossible for this thief to use his real identity to commit the crime." As for the speculative disguise, it makes a lot of sense. However, the officials are not ordinary people, and there are generally few disguise techniques that can hide from them, let alone in the case of high vigilance and mutual suspicion, so it seems that the conditions are not enough. ”

Listened to so much. Wang Xu couldn't help but wonder: "Then let's say so." Wouldn't it have eliminated everyone? If it's a thief, the number of people in the house has already been tapped. Also search closely, it's impossible to hide! ”

"Huh! It is not said below that there is an external thief, it should be an internal thief, the key is the method chosen by this person. Speaking of this, Liu Yi smiled incomprehensibly, and then continued: "General Wang, think about it, in the Taishou Mansion, in that situation. Who can easily know where the document is, and whoever is asked by it will know everything and say everything? Who can enter and exit the Taishou Mansion completely freely. Who else, even if some officials have doubts in their hearts, but they dare not speak out because the government is blocked? ”

Wang Xu is not stupid, when he heard this, his eyes were aimed at Huan Jie.

Of course, Huan Jie's own understanding was already understood, and he trembled all over, and said stupidly: "It seems that it's just me!" ”

As soon as the words fell, he reacted instantly, and with a pop, he knelt on the ground, and said hurriedly: "Lord, heaven and earth can be learned, the minister has really never done such a thing!" The lord has the grace of knowing and promoting me, and he treats the ministers well, and he is a rare master in the world, how can the ministers turn their backs on me and do such disloyal things? Although the minister is incompetent, he has also read the books of the sages, and he also knows that the loyal ministers do not care about the two masters, and they are willing to prove their innocence by death. ”

After speaking, Huan Jie suddenly pulled out the sword at his waist and wiped it on his neck with a wave of his hand.

"Huh! Wait. Wang Xu was just about to stop it, but Liu Yi, who was a little closer, was faster, his body moved, he had already reached out and grabbed Huan Jie's wrist, and said hurriedly: "Don't worry, Huan Taishou will finish speaking, and I don't mean what Huan Taishou did." ”

In fact, between the lightning and flint just now, Wang Xu had already realized something, and at this moment he hurriedly said: "Bo Xu, why are you in such a hurry." I know your character, and listen to Liu Zhonglang's words! How can you swing your sword and kill yourself when you don't know a lot? ”

As soon as the two of them said this, Huan Jie gradually calmed down, became wise in a hurry, frowned for a moment, and realized instantly. exclaimed: "Your Excellency is saying that the other party has changed into my appearance?" ”

"Hehe, exactly!" With a slight smile, Liu Yi helped Huan Jie up from the ground before he spoke: "This thief is so proud because he is disguised as you." As long as he can understand the location of Huan Taishou, he can calmly change into your appearance and appear in another place, Taishou Mansion is so big, how can he touch it lightly? ”

"No matter what he wants to know, it's very easy, just grab an official and ask him, and then kill people and take things. Even if a few officials saw you from a distance and found that the time you entered and exited the house was about the same time as the time of the deceased's death, and therefore suspected, the Taishou Mansion had been sealed off, and they mistakenly thought that Your Excellency had done it, so they would dare to speak up. The timid and the cowardly are afraid of death, and the loyal and bold dare not speak out, hoping to protect themselves, and wait for the Taishou Mansion to be unsealed before going to the court. In this way, it happened to be exploited by thieves. Everyone is in danger, they don't dare to confront each other honestly, and Huan Taishou is in the middle of the situation, so it is naturally difficult to find out. ”

Hearing this, Huan Jie's anger was really angry, and he didn't expect that he was completely used. For a person like him who values honor, this is really worse than killing him, holding the sword in his hand tightly, and roaring angrily: "I swear not to stand with this thief!" ”

Everyone knew that he was uncomfortable, but they did not dissuade him, and waited quietly for him to calm down.

Huan Jie is also worthy of being a famous historical minister, although he was ashamed and angry in his heart, he quickly calmed down, thought for a moment, and asked strangely: "But the officials are not stupid people, why can't they distinguish the truth from the false?" ”

"It's not easy. It's just a moment anyway. If you pretend to be angry. What will happen to the other party? Liu Yi said with a smile.

"Bow down." Huan Jie said without hesitation.

"That's not right." Liu Yi said with a smile: "The officials who stand far away can't see clearly, and the officials who stand close don't dare to look up, who dares to look carefully, and when they enter the official's room with the paperwork, it's too late for the other party to find out, as long as this person's martial arts are high enough, when he is frightened." Isn't it easy to kill with one move? Then he walked out generously and pretended to be angry and left. On the first day, everyone was unprepared, and it was impossible to pay much attention to wait for someone to go in and see it. I didn't think of that much at all. Later, the door of the mansion was blocked, and some careful people began to recall and doubt, but they did not dare to say any more. ”

In fact, Wang Xu had already understood just now, and when he heard this, he couldn't help but look back at Ling Wanqing and said, "Wanqing, you didn't want to say it before, but you want to check it out on the spot?" ”

"Hmm." Ling Wanqing was a little restrained at this time because of what had just happened. Whispered, "Exactly." Because this matter is related to Huan Tai's honor and disgrace, his subordinates want to go to the field to investigate first. Look at the wounds of the deceased and the expression on the verge of death. Because Huan Taishou said that everyone is a fatal move. Therefore, if the deceased was dying with anger, fear, hatred, etc., it means that the matter has yet to be investigated, and if there is shock, it will make sense. ”

"There is shock, the faces of the five people are very complicated, and the only thing in common is surprise!" Huan Jie's words took over affirmatively. "At first, I didn't understand why the deceased had a shocked look on his face, because even if he was an acquaintance in the house, it would be anger at most, and it could not be all shocked. Before he died, he was amazed, and he must have seen something unbelievable. ”

Seeing that the matter was almost confirmed, Wang Xu was also relieved, and said with a slight smile: "Since the modus operandi has been understood, how can we find out this thief?" Bo Xu has already checked and tapped the entire mansion to make sure that no one has mixed in, so it must be a thief, who will it be? ”

Ling Wanqing said, "Back to the lord, according to the opinion of his subordinates, it is impossible for the guards. They are more strictly restrained, and they have strict discipline when they are on duty in the palace, so it is naturally impossible to pretend to be Huan Taishou, so they should be excluded. And the officials can't do it, the officials can't know whether Huan Taishou is currently in the back or the front house, what he is doing, and where he is going to go, so he will worry that there will be a time to meet. ”

"A servant?" Huan Jie frowned.

"Yes, it's the servant. They themselves are in the back house, and it is normal for servants to inquire about each other's masters. So he can clearly know where Huan Taishou is, and he can even find an opportunity to observe what Huan Taishou is doing. When he was sure that Huan Taishou would not move around, he quickly rushed to the front yard with a disguise. Ling Wan said.

As soon as the words fell, Huan Jie was already nodding again and again. "I said how coincidentally, I went around the house all day to investigate the case, but when the accident happened two days later, I always happened to be in the backyard, either eating or resting, no wonder! No wonder! ”

Ling Wanqing smiled slightly, didn't say anything more, and instead said, "Since this is the case, you only need to gather all the servants and investigate them one by one." The servants can also find proof among each other, and the one who has not seen anyone during the time of the crime for three consecutive days is the sinner. Even if two or three happened to be on this list in the end, the scope was much smaller at that time, and it was possible to investigate from other aspects, such as the disguise tool, the location of the paperwork, etc., and even verify them one by one based on his own account of where he had gone at that time. Results are estimated in two to three days. ”

Hearing this, Wang Xu was heart-opening and said with a smile: "Hehe, what a Ling Wanqing, he is worthy of being a person who is good at this way, just do as you say!" You are given three days. ”

Liu Yi suddenly interjected: "Wait, General Wang, listen to me, how about it?" ”

"Oh?" Wang Xu glanced at Liu Yi suspiciously, and then said curiously: "Could it be that Liu Zhonglang still has a clever plan?" ”

"I can't say anything, I just have an idea." Liu Yi smiled, did not hesitate, frowned: "Actually, the sooner this kind of case can be solved, the better, and it is very time-consuming to investigate a matter." Because time always has a lot of unexpected coincidences, and sometimes it is difficult to discern. What's more, this will surprise the other party, give him time to prepare, even if he finds out, he may commit suicide on the spot, so that I am caught off guard and unable to know the mastermind behind him, and it will become a mystery. Even with the slightest negligence, the other party may risk death to send the documents out of the Taishou Mansion. So, in the current situation, it's better to lure it and catch it. ”

Hearing this, Wang Xu became interested and immediately asked, "What kind of temptation?" (To be continued, if you want to know what happens, please log on to http://www.biquge.info.)
