Chapter 0209 [Destroying the Gate]
Early in the morning, Duan Fei came to He Sheng's room with a panda eye, followed by Su Rong, who was casual, and Shi Bin, who wanted to laugh but didn't dare to laugh.
He Sheng had already gotten up, looked at Duan Fei and asked in surprise, "My lord, ...... your eyes?"
Duan Fei smiled bitterly: "When I went back to the house last night, I fell and my eyes just touched the threshold...... Don't mention this trouble, Brother He, Shi Bin I brought it, you are all old acquaintances, you have something to say, just tell this kid if you need anything. ”
"Brother He, Yuqi, Yulin, we meet again!" Shi Bin greeted them with a smile.
"Hmph......" Yue Yuqi snorted, looking at Shi Bin with an unkind expression, and even Yue Yulin, who had always been more honest, came to Shi Bin's back with a calm face.
"You talk slowly, Wang Tang asked me to go out to play, maybe it's already here, I'll go first." Duan Fei turned around and left very unrighteously, only to hear Shi Bin's screams from behind him, as well as Yue Yuqi and Yue Yulin's angry roars: "Let you take the opportunity to bully us, let you make fun of me......"
Duan Fei and Su Rong looked at each other and smiled, and continued to walk forward.
Wang Tang soon came to the door in person to invite, Duan Fei happily left with him, played for a few days, Wang Tang's vigilance against Duan Fei was almost completely relaxed, and the officials also returned the official letter, Zhou An's case upheld Duan Fei's original verdict, and finally reached a conclusion, Zhou An was acquitted, Zhou and Miss Liu were freed, although the Suzhou officials were negligent, but the big things turned into small things, and the past was not to blame, since ancient officialdom, the interests of the small people will not be defended.
Another envoy, Yang Shen, also hurried to Suzhou after a few days of busy entertaining in Yingtian, and he was very puzzled when he saw the scene of Duan Fei and Wang Tang getting along in harmony, and he had the intention to question but there was no excuse.
Zhou An's case Duan Fei was handled solidly, and there were many eyewitnesses when Shenshui tested the bloodstains, so Yang Shen could only put his suspicions in his stomach.
In private, he also talked to Duan Fei, Duan Fei did not answer his questions directly, but only said to him: "Lord Yang does not need to be suspicious, he is worthy of the heavens, earth, ghosts and gods, and worthy of the emperor's love, my friendship with Wang Tang is just a retreat as a strategy, Lord Yang wait and see." ”
There are two Lord Qincha sitting in Suzhou, Suzhou up and down are much more honest, they just hope to survive this time, wait for Lord Qincha to leave, but I didn't expect that when this song and dance was extremely harmonious, a sudden bloody case broke the rare peace.
On this day, when Duan Fei was drinking morning tea with Wang Tang in the Lion Tower, a servant ran up sweating profusely and bowed to Duan Fei: "Report...... Lord Qincha, the prefect of Lord Wu sent me to report urgently, there was a tragedy in Changshu County, Changshu County ordered no clues after the preliminary investigation, he admired the prestige of Lord Qincha Duan, and knew that Lord Qincha was in Suzhou, so he sent someone to report urgently, hoping that Lord Qincha could go to Changshu to investigate the case, Lord Wu ordered me to forward the urgent letter written by Hu Qing of Changshu County to Lord Qincha Duan, please make a decision! ”
Duan Fei opened the letter and looked at it, and said, "What a cruel murderer, Wang Gonggong, it seems that I have to go on a trip myself......"
Duan Fei said to go, and began to prepare after informing Yang Shen, looking like he was keen on business, Yang Shen thought about it for a while, or decided to stay in Suzhou, Duan Fei's Qin Errand should be relaxed, there are no suspicious cases or big cases, he can play leisurely and freely, Yang Shen doesn't have so much free time, he feels that there are many problems under the rule of Suzhou Mansion, Suzhou Mansion treats him from top to bottom, and he, the Qin Messenger who is responsible for restricting Duan Fei, is not as good as Duan Fei after coming to Suzhou, which is really a great irony.
Duan Fei had talked to him privately, so Yang Shen didn't interfere much with Duan Fei's actions, but now it's better, Duan Fei went directly to Changshu County, but he couldn't get out, and he couldn't manage it if he wanted to.
Duan Fei's team this time was vast, and it was not the same as when he came to Suzhou, the Qincha honor guard brought a full set, the escort team increased to 1,000 people, and the Jinyi guard masters led by Hua Ming also increased by five, reaching the number of ten, these people were all personally selected by Zhengde to let Hua Ming in the Jinyi Guard, with first-class martial arts and no problem in loyalty.
Attracted countless onlookers along the way, the Qincha guard of honor arrived in Changshu County smoothly in the evening, the county commander took the county officials and other civil officials and the three classes of officials out of the city to pick up, Duan Fei did not stop much after entering the Changshu County Ya, washed his face and drank a cup of tea and went straight to the scene of the crime.
The scene of the crime is located at the foot of Yushan Mountain in the north of Changshu County, and there are more than a dozen mud houses standing alone in the large farmland, this is Yushan Village.
The village chief and Li Jia had been waiting at the end of the road for a long time, and after a period of worship, Duan Fei said to the old village chief surnamed Xu: "Village Chief Liu, what is the specific case?" Did anyone hear or see anything unusual last night? ”
The young Lijia beside Village Chief Liu hurriedly replied: "The dog in the village barked all night last night, and I came out to check several times but didn't find it, until dawn this morning, I heard the screaming of the second child of the Zhang family, so I found that there was a tragedy in their house......"
"Huh? Didn't you say that the tragedy of the destruction of the door? How is there still one alive? Shi Bin interjected and asked.
Village Chief Liu sighed and said, "The second child of the Zhang family is not dead, but ...... He was already a little stupid, but after being scared last night, he is now completely stupid, and he can't even recognize people, and he hasn't eaten a bite of food until now, and it's no different from death. ”
Changshu County Commander Hu Qing scolded: "If you don't die, you can't be called to destroy the door, you old man, you dare to deceive the official, deceive the adult, it's really damned, I'll settle accounts with you when I turn back!" ”
Duan Fei glanced at Hu Qing indifferently, his letter also said that the scene had been investigated, it seemed that it was just a mouthful of lies, why didn't the officials of Suzhou Mansion see a slightly more normal one from top to bottom?
Duan Fei's faint glance frightened Hu Qing, and a layer of fine sweat suddenly broke out all over his body, Duan Fei didn't know that his gaze had such an effect, he retracted his gaze and said, "Please take the village chief to the scene of the Jiang family's murder, Rong'er, you go with Lijia to find the one who is not dead, fool?" The best thing this official is a fool. ”
Hearing his old words repeated, Su Rong glared at him angrily, if it was another Demon Sect disciple, Su Rong would have stabbed it with a sword, but this Duan Fei ...... I've been with him for three months, and I can't do it......
Su Rong followed that Lijia, and Duan Fei and the others came to the door of the Jiang family.
Duan Fei did not walk directly into the courtyard where the Jiang family opened the gate, but stood in front of the door and looked around, only to see that the location of the Jiang family was located in the most remote part of Yushan Village, a certain distance from the houses of other villagers in Yushan Village.
The Jiang family raised a big black dog, and after being pulled away by the villagers, he was still barking at Duan Fei and them, Duan Fei looked at the big dog suspiciously, and said, "Shi Bin, go over and take a look, is there any scar on that dog?" ”
Shi Bin went around the dog and said, "My lord, there are no injuries on this dog. ”
Duan Fei turned around and asked Village Chief Liu, "Old Village Chief, are you familiar with the Jiang family?" Do they usually tie dogs at night? ”
Village Chief Liu said: "Back to the adult, we raise dogs to prevent thieves, how can there be a reason to still be tethered, everyone is not bolted, today the adults came to investigate the case, we are afraid of frightening the adults, so the dogs are bolted." ”
"Oh, no...... I think the Jiang family's dog is very fierce, last night the murderer broke into the house, it should have rushed up to bite it as soon as possible, and the murderer had to dispose of it before he could hurt anyone, why was it unharmed? Village Chief Liu, tell me honestly, did the dog bark all night last night? Why did you leave the Jiang family alone when you got up to inspect? ”
Village Chief Liu squeaked for a while, and Hu Xianling shouted: "Village Chief Liu, do you know the origin of Lord Qincha in front of you?" He is a celestial Qu Xing, and he has solved countless cases since he became an official, you still have to be honest, as long as you didn't kill people, what do you have to hide? ”
Village Chief Liu shuddered and shouted, "I didn't kill anyone, did I...... It was Xiao Lizi who made me say that the dog barked all night. ”
"Little plum?" Duan Fei asked.
"It's the Lijia just now, his surname is Li, so everyone calls him Xiao Lizi." Xu Zhutou from Changshu County said.
Duan Fei said solemnly: "Quickly send two people to arrest him and interrogate him, if the dog doesn't bark, it is likely that the thief committed the crime, why did this little plum hide and deceive the official?" This person must be a serious suspect. ”
"My lord, Xiao Lizi has already taken Jiang Lao Er with him...... The master with the adults is here. Xu Zhutou whispered.
Everyone could see that no matter whether the master was male or female, the relationship with Master Duan was very ambiguous, and when he heard Xu Zhutou's words, Duan Fei's old face did not blush at all, and he looked in the direction of his finger, only to see Su Rong and the young Lijia walking over with a thin, weak, cowering teenage boy.
Seeing the boy's appearance, Duan Fei's heart moved, and he shouted: "Rong'er, grab the armor for me, don't let him run away!" ”
Although Su Rong didn't know what she meant, she didn't hesitate to reach out and press it on Na Jia's shoulder, and replied, "Don't worry, my lord, he can't run." ”
Xiao Lizi only felt that half of his body was numb, where could he break free, and he was pushed in front of Duan Fei with grinning teeth, Duan Fei glared at him and shouted: "Bold dog, dare to deceive this official, you are guilty!" ”
Xiao Lizi was so frightened that he couldn't possess his body, and hurriedly said: "My lord, the villain has always obeyed the law, but I really don't know what crime he has committed, please be aware of it!" ”
Duan Fei shouted: "You still dare to quibble? You didn't do anything wrong, why did you deceive the official that the dog barked all night last night? You are making up a lie in order to cover up the fact that you committed murder! ”
Xiao Lizi was so frightened that he almost lost his soul, he prostrate on the ground and kowtowed again and again, shouting: "My lord, wronged, my lord, I just drank a little wine last night, fell into the ridge and slept for a night, did not patrol the night as usual, this morning I heard that there was a murder in the Jiang family, so I lied and wanted to hide it, my lord, the villain just stole a little lazy, and really didn't kill anyone!" ”
Duan Fei sneered and said, "It's good if you admit to lying to me, who killed the person will have to wait until I see the scene......
Duan Fei's gaze moved away from Xiao Li Zi and fell on the boy who was standing on the side.
Judging from his thin figure, he was about twelve or thirteen years old, his face was dull, expressionless, his hands pinched the corner of his clothes, and he stood there very restrainedly, looking really stupid, but looking at him Duan Fei always felt that something was not quite right.
Duan Fei looked at him seriously a few times and asked, "Village Chief Liu, what is this child's full name?" Is he really scared silly? What about him? ”
Village Chief Liu replied: "If you go back to the adult, his full name is Jiang Liang, he was stupid before the accident, he often sat on the edge of the ridge in a daze, asked him anything, he didn't speak, and he fought twice with the children in the village not long after he came, so everyone didn't like him very much." ”
"Oh? Did the Jiang family move in recently? Why did Jiang Liang fight with the children? Duan Fei asked.
Village Chief Liu replied: "It's not close, their family moved here two years ago, and the rest of the Jiang family is also a rule, this Jiang Liang...... I can't tell why they're fighting, kids......"
Xiao Lizi hurriedly replied: "My lord, this Jiang Liang did bad things in my eldest brother's field last time, kicked and stepped on the neatly tied rice stalks, making a mess and mess, and my eldest nephew found out before he started a fight with him, he couldn't beat my eldest nephew, and actually bit my eldest nephew with his mouth!" If it weren't for his father, Mr. Jiang, I would never spare him! ”
Village Chief Liu explained: "My lord, Jiang Liang's father is a showman, he only moved here the year before last, and set up a school in the village to teach the children in the village to read and read for free, so everyone is very grateful to him, their family is a good person except for this Jiang Liang, poor ......."
Jiang Liang's gaze seemed to freeze without focus, and when others said him to his face, he didn't pay attention to it at all, as if he was really stupid, Duan Fei snorted, glanced at Jiang Liang again, and said, "Okay, I understand, let's go in and see the scene......"
After entering the Jiang family's courtyard, he suddenly smelled a smell of blood, Duan Fei took out a white handkerchief from his arms, handed it to Su Rong and said, "Rong'er, this is specially prepared for you, you can use it." ”
Su Rong shrugged her nose slightly, smelling a scent of orchids, she casually took the handkerchief to cover her nose, and took the lead in the house.
Duan Fei smiled slightly, took out another handkerchief from his arms, covered his nose and walked into the house, the blood in the room was so thick that it was disgusting, only to see an adult female corpse lying on the threshold leading from the bedroom to the hall, there were three deep knife wounds on her back, but obviously the fatal injuries did not come from these three knives, because her hands were still covering her neck when she was dying, and the blood spilling from her fingers had spread a pool of blood on the ground with a radius of one meter......
