Ruan Zhi leaned against the railing under the porch, hanging his shoulders, without the slightest image of an official, and the whole person looked tired and depressed.

Huo Huaiding and Li Zhifu came from the other end, and Ruan Zhi raised his head when he heard the footsteps.

What kind of expression appeared on his face was inappropriate, he simply wiped his face and sighed: "I'm not afraid of the jokes of the two adults, I've been an official for many years, I've experienced a lot of big and small cases, and I've seen corpses, even if I encountered white bones or burned charcoal before, I haven't been so flustered as I am now."

When I think it's Uchiko, I can't stand it......"

Huo Huaiding said: "Lord Ruan mourns. ”

Governor Li agreed, but his eyes glanced at Wen Zifu.

Wen Ruan's family is still in-laws, Wen Zifu had to come, but he didn't interfere at all, as if he didn't want to tell the truth.

It's just that this is the same thing......

Li Zhifu glanced at Wen Ci and Wen Kite again.

The appearance of these two people was also expected, but why didn't he see Wen Yan?

These days, Wen Yan often appears in the yamen, and it is surprising that he suddenly does not come these days.

Just thinking about it, Governor Li saw Huo Yixiao coming out of the Moon Cave Gate, followed by Wen Yan.

He secretly thought that he was here, but as soon as the people came, they went to talk to Lord Huo's nephew.

He searched around Wen Yan carefully, but he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief when he didn't find the black cat.

You can still deal with people, and you can get along with the beasts who have become fine......

He can't do it anyway.

Ruan Zhi also saw Wen Yuan and said, "Cheng's daughter-in-law is here." ”

Before Wen Yuan could speak, Ruan Mengcheng had already entered the courtyard from the other end.

He stared at Wen Yuan viciously and said, "Forcing your mother to commit suicide by throwing herself into the water, do you still have the face to come?" ”

Wen Yuan frowned, and wrote the rejection of Ruan Mengcheng on her face.

Mama Huang whispered to her: "Auntie, before coming, the old lady explained very much, let's come here, just to complete the rules and etiquette, no need to make a fuss, let alone interfere in the yamen to judge the case, you don't have to worry." With so many people here, he can't hurt you, and the more he speaks majesticly, the more inferior he becomes. ”

Mama Hu also nodded: "Mama Huang is right!" ”

Wen Yuan bowed his head, took a deep breath, and said, "I was very surprised that she threw herself into the water." ”

This is what Wen Yan taught her.

The same meaning can be expressed in several ways.

If you bluntly say "I don't believe she will commit suicide", it sounds like unless there is an accident, otherwise Ruan Chen will die by homicide.

In the middle of the night, in the back house of the officials, the murderer sneaked in and stuffed Ruan Chen's into the pool without knowing it?

This is tantamount to saying, does the Ruan family have internal ghosts?

Such a statement now not only shows the attitude, but also does not be too sharp.

The current situation does not require her to stand out.

Ruan Mengcheng wanted to say something, Ruan Zhi waved his hand at him and said, "What are you shouting at your daughter-in-law!"

You, you, if you are polite to your daughter-in-law on weekdays, you get along with your mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, and don't talk about bastards, she won't be unable to live and want to leave.

If there is no separation, how can there be today's affairs?

Hey, don't you say a word. ”

Ruan Mengcheng was angry, but he didn't dare to contradict his father, shook Wen Yuan a few times, and stopped talking.

Wen Kite's brows became tighter and tighter.

She had seen Mrs. Gui talking to An's family, and the old lady never said that her daughter-in-law was wrong, but the soft nails were all buried in it.

Ruan Zhi said these few words, a road number.

It sounds like blaming his son, to put it bluntly, the cause of Ruan Chen's death is pressed to death by Wen Yuan's insistence and departure.

Wen Yan naturally heard it, stepped forward and grabbed Wen Kite's hand, and winked at her.

Wen Kite's mind was settled.

That's right, there are so many people in her own family, as long as she is stable and doesn't go wrong, it's enough.

"What happened to her and her mother-in-law yesterday?" Wen Yuan asked.

"Blame me, blame me!" Ruan Zhi sighed, "Last night before going to bed, she was in a trance, not only did I not comfort her in time, she got up and left in the middle of the night, I didn't notice it in my sleep, if I slept more lightly, I found out that she was gone earlier......"

Governor Li answered: "We came here just now, and we didn't have time to ask in detail, so we just took this opportunity to ask a few questions." Brother Ruan, who kept vigil yesterday? Why did my brother and sister go out and no one knows? ”

"There is no one to keep vigil," Ruan Zhi said, "Neizi feels shallow, and if there is a little sound at the vigil, she will not be able to sleep soundly, for this reason, I am not afraid of your jokes, I have been driven to the study, so there has always been no one in the house to keep vigil." ”

"Is there a night patrol in the house?" Governor Li asked again.

Ruan Zhi said: "I asked in the morning, and I patrolled it in the middle of the night before the rain, but I didn't find the situation until the people got up...... Maybe something happened in the middle, or maybe it was before the rain, but it was too dark to see. ”

Governor Li asked a lot of questions, and Ruan Zhi answered them one by one, and said to Wen Yuan: "Daughter-in-law, don't listen to what that bastard just said."

If something like this happens at home, there are few people inside and outside who have to take care of it, and you can build a mourning hall for a while, and you can get an idea about the affairs of the inner courtyard.

Is there anything to do when your mother-in-law is out of seven, and then discuss it? ”

Speaking of which, there are people from the yamen, and if Wen Yuan refuses, it seems extremely unkind.

But it really took care of Ruan Chen's aftermath, and it dragged on for forty-nine days, who knows what the situation was.

Wen Yan pondered to answer, Wen Yan stepped forward and grabbed her arm, and said in a low voice, "Let's go to the house to see the situation first." ”

"I've been married for a short time, and the trivial things in the family are all handled by my mother-in-law, and you suddenly asked me to do this, I really don't know what to do," Wen Yuan and Ruan Zhi said, "Mother-in-law is still in it, right?" I'll go see if I can help. ”

Wen Kite led Wen Yan in.

Nguyen Chen's body was lying on the couch, and the mother-in-law had already cleaned it up for her.

Wen Yuan glanced at it, subconsciously moved away, and forced herself to take another look.

Wen Yan was also watching.

There are five rooms on the left and right of the main house, and all she can see is the east room where Ming Room and Ruan Chen's are located, and in other places, she is not good at trespassing.

"She loves cleanliness?" Wen Yan asked Wen Kite softly.

Wen Kite nodded: "Ask for spotless." ”

"I see." Wen Yan said.

In these two rooms, things are neat and regular, and there is no clue for a while, so Wen Yan has to go out.

Wait a minute......

Only then did she walk to the bright room, and Wen Yan retreated to the second room, looking at the position she had just glimpsed in the afterglow.

In the corner of the floor cover, there is a mud mark.

The seal is too small, and the color is close to the hood, which is difficult to notice, but with Nguyen Chen's character, it is very abrupt.

Unless, this is what she got after the accident.

This morning, some people came in and out of the house, but there were no mud footprints on the ground, which showed that the marks had nothing to do with them.

It only made sense when it rained in the middle of the night and stepped on the wet mud.

The only person in this room can do it.

Ruan Zhi threw Ruan Chen into the water in the night rain, and when he returned to the room, even if he lit the lamp, he could only close it very darkly, and with that little glimmer of light, he tried to wipe the floor as much as possible, and he missed such a place.

Thinking of this, Wen Yan walked to the door and beckoned to Huo Yixiao.

Huo Yixiao came in: "What's wrong?" ”

Wen Yan pointed to the mud mark, whispered his thoughts, and said: "This seal can only be inferred, not a coffin, Xiao Ye, you have to go out." ”

Huo Yixiao snorted and laughed.

The little fox was quite clever and knew that it was useless for her to shout.

If you want to shout, he will shout.

Huo Yixiao called Governor Li's mansion in, raised his chin, and motioned him to look at the seal: "Lord Li, the imperial history patrol has come to the mansion, and you have been here for so many days, your performance is really not outstanding."

Shunping Bofu you can't be even, the prefect who is half a grade lower than you, you can always handle it, right?

Don't say I didn't give you a chance, the case is closed, and your assessment can be more beautiful. ”

Governor Li didn't understand it for a while, stared at the seal for a while, and then heard Wen Yan say that Ruan Chen's family loved cleanliness very much, and his mouth suddenly opened.

What kind of bad luck has he been doing lately, and he has been involved in these cases one after another!

What Hou Mansion, Bo Mansion, Prefect's Mansion, this Mansion and that Mansion, can't they stop?

I was wailing in my heart, but I had to laugh dryly twice on my face, and Governor Li said, "I thank you two." ”
