At this time, all Chu Jiao's thoughts were about the situation on Qin Shao's side.

And Qin Shao did not rush to the Jiang family, but thoroughly investigated the situation of the Jiang family before going to participate.

The Jiang family has been engaged in buying and selling tea for generations, and the family was not very popular in the past, but it only began to develop from this dead Jiang master.

There is only one main house in the house.

Mrs. Jiang gave birth to a son and a daughter, Ming Jiang Yunyan and Jiang Yunchi, two people.

Before that, I heard that the family atmosphere between them was very good and harmonious, and it stands to reason that there should be no mistakes, how could this be?

Chu Jiao waited left and right and didn't wait for the reduction to come back, she was stunned to go out to have a look, but saw Qin Shao at her door, and the two of them happened to bump into each other.

Chu Jiao felt a little embarrassed in her heart, so she asked about the situation, Qin Shao said truthfully, and Chu Jiao's situation was even more relieved in her heart.

"If you're not at ease, come with me, isn't it safe for me to stay here alone.

Always let me know how things are, and with you by my side, I'll be fine, what do you say? ”

Under Chu Jiao's soft grinding and hard bubbles, Qin Shao still took Chu Jiao to Jiang's house together, of course, Qin Shao didn't want to be so public, he only said that he was the official of the prefect's mansion, and Chu Jiao disguised herself as a man and followed Qin Shao to check the situation together.

When the family heard that it was the prefect's house, they didn't say anything, and reported it truthfully, and Chu Jiao and Qin Shao were quickly invited in.

"It turned out to be the prefect's side of the pusher, and I was disappointed before, and I hope to forgive me."

Chu Jiao raised her eyes and saw the woman in front of her, almost forty years old, wearing a cyan gown, wearing a gown with auspicious clouds, combing the woman's hair bun, and carrying a few gold and silver hairpins on her head.

only listen to her talk, talk eloquently, polite and dignified, you can see everyone's style.

"Come on, watch the tea!"

"Madame doesn't have to be so polite, we came here this time because we want to investigate something, and I hope Madame can cooperate with us." Qin Shao said.

When the lady nodded, she looked at the two people in front of her seriously and asked, "I don't know if there is anything I need help with, I will definitely do my best." ”

"According to our investigation, some time ago, we found a male corpse in the river, and after careful investigation, we found out that it was Master Jiang from your mansion."

At this time, I saw a woman holding a teacup in her hand, and after hearing Qin Shao's words, the teacup in her hand shattered, and the hot tea splashed on the woman's hand, but she didn't realize it.

I saw that the woman was wearing a lilac pleated skirt, revealing her slender waist, and after hearing the news, she became discolored: "You are talking nonsense, how can my father die?" ”

Seeing that the family didn't know the situation, Qin Shao hurriedly settled them down.

"Don't worry, everyone, we are here to investigate this matter, and we hope to investigate this matter clearly."

"Our lord followed the caravan on the third day of the sixth month, and at that time my grandfather talked about a big deal and followed the caravan, but the leader of the caravan said that this big deal took a long time, and he couldn't make a lot of money.

After thinking about it carefully, he still agreed to the deal, and said that he would not be able to return until two or three months later, but he didn't expect that now half a month has passed, and the master will have an accident! ”

Mrs. Jiang's face was sad, and Jiang Yunyan also became sad.

"Then he hasn't contacted his family once in the past half a month?"

Mrs. Jiang was stunned for a moment, and then she turned around and went to the inner room, but in a moment, she came out with a box, only to watch Mrs. Jiang open the box, and there were several small notes neatly inside.

"Because I miss my lord who is out, and my lord also misses me and the children at home, he will send a note every ten days, or fly pigeons to pass on the book, or send his people back, the two ways are different.

It was the 10th day since the last letter was delivered, so I wasn't worried about it in the days before. ”

"I don't know what's in this letter, can we take a look?"

Mrs. Jiang looked calm, and handed over the box: "If adults need to investigate the case, even if the investigation is not too much. ”

"Then I'll take this note back first, if there are other things, you will come to Mrs. Jiang again, by the way, Master Jiang's body is still in the Yaotai Mansion, you can't take it away before the case is over, but you can take a few looks first."

Madame Jiang nodded.

After Chu Jiao and Qin Shao went back, they carefully checked the font note, because this note was the only clue now, and the time of the master's death was best at the time of this second letter.

"You go and sneak into the rivers and lakes, and bring me all the handwriting of Master Jiang's usual letters, I want to take a closer look." Qin Shao said.

"Okay, I see."

After a while, Xiuying came back with Master Jiang's handwriting, and Chu Jiao and Qin Shao checked it for themselves.

The handwriting is all right, which makes it even stranger.

Looking at the content and handwriting on this note, it doesn't seem to stabilize after encountering an accident, and the writing seems to be very comfortable and relaxed, and the penmanship can be seen at will, so why is this?

"Looking at the Jiang family's mother and daughter as if they didn't know anything, could it be that this matter was done by the previous caravan leader, even if it wasn't him, he couldn't get rid of him, let's start with the investigation here."

After Chu Jiao finished speaking, Xiuying went to investigate.

On the other side, Zheng Siyuan made some mistakes, I heard that when he was drunk in the middle of the night, he beat a person to death, but this matter was quickly suppressed by Zheng Siyuan.

This matter is really serious, but according to the investigation of the people under Qin Shao, it is said that it was a few taels of silver that sent the family's family to shut up.

Chu Jiao couldn't help but get angry after knowing about this incident, and it was an unforgivable crime to disregard human life in prison, and to hurt innocent people.

"This dog officer...... I don't think it's a ......."

Before Chu Jiao's words could finish Xiuying, he came back and found out the matter, it turned out that the leader of the tea merchant's caravan was Zheng Siyuan's men.

Chu Jiao snorted coldly, it really didn't take any effort to get it, it turned out that the real murderer was in front of him.

At this time, she must get definite evidence to convince this dog official's death.

Send him to the guillotine......

Looking at Chu Jiao's appearance of gritting her teeth like this, Qin Shao inexplicably felt that there was a bit of cuteness in it.

"Don't be so angry, get angry and hurt your body, if it's for that mess and make you unhappy, then it's not worth it."

"How can I not be angry? I want to see what this Zheng Siyuan wants to do, where is the tea merchant's caravan now? ”

"There are a total of eighteen people in the subordinate investigation caravan, and more than a dozen carriages have all been hidden by Zheng Siyuan privately, and the whereabouts have not been traced yet, but the subordinates must be as soon as possible."

Chu Jiao waved her hand, and Xiuying went down, she held her temples, only to feel that things had become more complicated.

"Why are you here to decide the case now? I told you to leave it to me, but if you don't believe it or listen to it, is it possible to question your husband's ability? ”

As soon as the two of them mentioned the word husband, Chu Jiao was full of resistance.

There was also a change in her expression, and Qin Shao also saw her change obviously, and he didn't know what to say for a while to save the situation he had just caused.

"I think our relationship should also have a clear ......"

"You don't need to say that you will give me a while longer, I believe that you will make a difference, I know that it was my mistake to apologize to you in the past, and I can't undo what happened before, I just want to be better for you from now on."

Qin Shao is a prince, he is decisive on the battlefield, and he is even more unreasonable in the court, and when he has to speak for her, he will be so low.

Her heart is not made of stone, but because of this, she has no way to forgive him, and she has no way to forgive herself, this matter has always been a knot in her heart, and it is like a nightmare in her heart, she can only keep using various things or going out to play, or investigating cases to fill these blank times, so that she can try not to think about those unbearable memories.

"No, I think it's time too, and I still have to be honest with you when I think about it.

In fact, I have seen a lot of things before, but I am afraid that this hurdle in my heart will not be able to pass, so please don't waste your efforts on me. ”

"Don't talk about this kind of thing anymore, you better investigate the case carefully, if you think about these things, don't be too energetic."

Chu Jiao nodded, he didn't want to be so sad.

"I see that you are in a bad mood, so if you are not angry, it is better to go to see Zheng Siyuan, just let you vent the anger in your heart."

The two looked at each other and smiled, as if they had some kind of tacit understanding.

When the two of them arrived at Zheng Siyuan again, Zheng Siyuan was hindered by Qin Shao's identity, so he didn't dare to slack off.

"I wonder if you two came here today, do you have any advice?"

"Master Zheng has a lot of great achievements, where is it the turn of the two of us to advise, what about you?"

"What do you mean by that?" Zheng Siyuan's expression became nervous, and his face was gloomy.

"I heard that a few days ago, Master Zheng drank some wine and walked at night."

It turned out that he killed someone in the middle of the night, and Zheng Siyuan settled down inexplicably.

Chu Jiao stared at the changes before and after, knowing that what she had just said was right, he didn't want Mrs. Jiang's family to be in danger, they still had to pretend not to know about this matter, of course, this is also on the one hand, on the other hand, it is necessary to avoid startling the snake.
