Zhen Shiyuan sat in the chair, holding an old document in his hand and fanning it in front of his face, it was obviously a snowy winter, but he was sweating on his face, and he was fanning even more in his hand.

"What's the matter?" Looking at Xu Hexiu who walked in from the door, Zhen Shi walked away.

Xu Hexiu went to Zhoukou Post Station to investigate the cause of the little guy's death, and found out that the flying pigeon passed the book to him that night, and revealed to him that the knife that kills people is very important, but who uses this knife is more important.

Compared with the unobstructed and almost undisguised murder methods, it is obvious that finding out the reason for the murder is the most important thing, and the biggest suspect at the moment is locked up in the Dali Temple prison.

It's just that at the moment, just one confession, and the confession of a dead witness, is not enough to confirm the suspicion of the son of the Xie family. Everyone thinks that it is one thing to be suspicious, and it is another thing to have no definite evidence.

Undocumented crimes are often difficult to truly convict.

At the moment, the two cases in his hands are really a bloody case caused by a small guy, one next to Lord Zhao, what is the name, he hasn't even remembered the name, and the other is Kunzhi who died in Lishan.

These two little guys were ordinary before they died, Xu passed in front of everyone, and everyone might not take a second look, but these two ordinary little guys attracted the attention of the entire Chang'an City when they died.

Now that the wind and snow are so heavy, most people are too lazy to stay at home, to put it mildly, it is the time when they are full and have nothing to do. In the past few days, the officials of Dali Temple have heard the "stories" told by several teahouse storytellers.

The three of them became tigers, and let them continue to talk about the chaotic criminals, I am afraid that they will all alarm His Majesty.

It was when he was so busy that Xu Hexiu came back, of course he didn't hate Xu Hexiu's return, and he even liked this offspring. However, there was no surprise that he would return, after all, the outcome of the matter was already known.

What really made him fan with the paperwork in the winter was the words of Xu Hexiu in front of the door.

"Shanxi Road ......"

Shanxi Road! Hearing these three words, Zhen Shiyuan's heart jumped: My God, won't she take care of them and colleagues who stayed in the capital again at this time?

The girl who was about to eat on Shanxi Road sneezed, looked around inexplicably, and there was no second sneeze, Xu just choked, so she continued to eat.

Xu Hexiu, who walked in with a smile, didn't notice that the three words in his mouth made Zhen Shiyuan sweat in winter, and only smiled: "I heard that the people sent by the capital are going to Shanxi Road today, and they are going to bring Miss Yuan back to the capital overnight. ”

It turned out to be this thing, Zhen Shiyuan stopped with the hand that fanned the paperwork, and the person couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, and at the end, he threw the paperwork on the table, only to give him a roll of the eyes, and said, "What kind of mess is this?" After all, it's not such a thing as investigating a case, cats and dogs can give it a try, there is no threshold? If you look at the kind of treatment, you don't need to clear the scene, and others don't dare to set foot at will. ”

After all, if you don't have Dali Temple or been called by His Majesty to do something, then the reasoning is wrong, and it's just a joke, but you can cure the disease and cure the dead, that is to pay for your life.

Looking at her calm and old appearance on weekdays, she didn't expect to encounter such a thing, but she was still a child, and she even played the game of clearing the scene.

However, even if she clears the scene like a child, it is not easy to persuade Her Majesty to listen to her.

This person, as a subordinate, he likes it very much, if he doesn't like to "take care" of them, the superiors of the same yamen, plus colleagues, it would be even better.

Xu Hexiu laughed when he said this, but he didn't care, and just sat down on the chair opposite him.

Looking at these more and more casual subordinates, Zhen Shiyuan frowned: ...... Forget it, it's better to be an individual and compassionate to your subordinates!

"There is no objection to the death of that little guy." Xu and monasticism.

Although the matter is very simple, and the flying pigeon biography can explain it clearly, it is still essential to talk about this kind of thing in person.

"The crux of this case is who is going to kill him."

Zhen Shiyuan raised his eyebrows: "I think that this little guy can be released by her from Shanxi Road, he must have already asked all his confessions, and it stands to reason that it shouldn't matter if he can't extinguish his mouth." ”

"But the man is still dead." The playful expression on Xu Hexiu's face gradually faded, and his expression froze, "Everything that should be said has already been said, why do you want to kill people?" Don't...... Itchy hands? ”

As soon as these words came out, it was not surprising that Zhen Shiyuan got another white eye.

"If that's the case, it's really idle." Zhen Shiyuan said, "Even if that person is alive, Xie Yi wants to get rid of the crime, and he can completely prove that this little guy had a holiday with him and deliberately framed him, in this matter, Xie Yi ...... There seems to be no need to do so. ”

Xu Hexiu nodded: "I've been thinking about it on the way back, and I always feel a little strange." However, based on my many years of experience in acquaintance with the eldest son of the Xie family, this eldest son of the Xie family is not a good person. ”

If it was really a good one, Taiwei Xie would have mentioned him to the rank a long time ago.

Zhen Shiyuan didn't even raise his eyelids when he heard this: "You mean that this Xie Yi is not a good person, so it is possible to kill people?" ”

"I didn't say that, don't misinterpret me." Xu Hexiu hurriedly shook his head and denied it, then coughed and said, "We still have to pay attention to evidence in handling cases." ”

Just because this person is not a good person does not mean that he killed someone.

Zhen Shiyuan snorted and said lightly: "It's good that you understand, this case is in your hands, you don't want to decide because of your friendship with the Xie family and your likes and dislikes for this Xie Yi, like some people, you have no selfish intentions in handling the case......"

"The six relatives don't recognize it?" Xu Hexiu laughed and said, "My lord, some of you said that some people are talking about Lord Qiao!" ”

"It's not that the six relatives don't recognize it, it's just and selfless." Zhen Shiyuan changed his words to correct his wording, but did not deny the "some people" in his mouth.

These words made Xu Hexiu laugh even more happily, the case is confused at the moment, it is really not a time to be happy, but when it comes to Lord Qiao, I don't know why I always feel funny, especially when Zhen Shiyuan in front of him mentions that girl, his tangled and complicated expression is even more unbearable.

Just smiling, Tang Zhongyuan walked in from outside, gave a salute, and said to Zhen Shiyuan: "My lord, the bridge has been repaired." ”

It has been almost a month now, and the craftsman supervisor has been working on the bridge day and night, and the bridge has finally been repaired.

Zhen Shiyuan and Xu Hexiu's eyes lit up at the same time when they heard this, and they got up excitedly.

"Really?"

This sentence was asked almost in unison.

For the excitement of the two people in front of him, Tang Zhongyuan's expression was a little subtle, he opened his mouth, and stopped talking.

Such a strangeness seemed to be poured down with a basin of cold water, and the two suddenly had a bad premonition.

"But what happened?" Zhen Shiyuan immediately walked around the table and walked over.

Tang Zhongyuan nodded and said, "...... in the building"

He only said three words, but fell silent again.

Tang Zhongyuan is not a person who talks a lot, but he will not be silent when he should speak, and the hearts of the two people who have been silent again and again today are beating wildly.

"Okay, don't say it, the official has to go and see it for himself." Zhen Shiyuan said that, he picked up the cloak on the screen on the side and prepared to go out.

Xu Hexiu also hurriedly followed.

Tang Zhongyuan looked at him and spoke again: "Lord Xu, Your Majesty has an order, except for Lord Zhen, no one else has His Majesty's holy order, and no one is allowed to approach the Que Tower." ”

Xu Hexiu, who said this, immediately turned pale: "Did something happen?" ”

There is no need for Tang Zhongyuan to answer, the answer is almost yes.

The bridge was opened, but I didn't hear any news about the people in the building, but His Majesty issued a ban not to approach, and it must be a very shocking thing that happened in the building.

"Is something wrong with the people in the building?" After a pause, Xu Hexiu blurted out.

There is no need for Tang Zhongyuan to answer, the answer is also yes.

"What the hell is going on?"

In response to Shang Xu and Xiu's questioning, Tang Zhongyuan shook his head and said, "We don't know. ”

The bridge was repaired at dawn, and only two craftsmen with tools to repair the bridge were seen, except for the officials who were on duty at night.

"But although there were two of them at the time, there was only one person who really went in," Tang Zhongyuan said, "It's Eunuch Dong." ”

After many born magnates who were trapped in the bridge, the children of the clan were trapped in the building for a month, and naturally there was no pressure from the magnates.

Therefore, Dong Dajian often does it himself in order to grab time.

The same goes for this last step.

However, he was lucky enough to be the only one who saw the situation of Que Lou.

At that time, many officials and craftsmen also saw it with their own eyes.

The craftsmen who stayed outside stood by the bridge and waited, and Eunuch Dong went in personally, and then only heard an exclamation, and it didn't take long for Eunuch Dong to run out in embarrassment, looking flustered.

The master of the craftsman's prison, who was usually famous for his craft but had a short temper, almost ran out in a posture that no one had ever seen before, so the people outside didn't know what was going on inside.

When the craftsmen who stayed outside stepped forward to support Eunuch Dong, Eunuch Dong exclaimed and rushed to the bridge with him, and then rushed all the way back to the snow viewing platform.

After rushing back to the snow viewing platform, everyone naturally stepped forward to help and comfort Dong Dajian who was so panicked, and when Dong Dajian finally calmed down, his face became solemn, and then solemnly said that he would enter the palace to meet His Majesty, and no one was allowed to approach the snow viewing platform at will.

At that time, there were not only craftsmen who worked as supervisors, but also officials from various ministries and yamen.

Originally, everyone came from the same yamen, and when Eunuch Dong hurriedly entered the palace to face the saint and left, there might be someone to take a look, but at that time, the people from the various yamen were staring, lest someone would take a trick.

His words really stopped everyone, and no one went in.

It wasn't until Eunuch Dong went and returned after facing the saint that he was still ...... brought a team of palace guards, as well as a palace painter.

The bridge was repaired, but no one was allowed to approach.

Tang Zhongyuan came back to pass the word, and His Majesty's order was only different for one person, that is, Zhen Shiyuan, the Qing of Dali Temple.

When it comes to "Dali Temple" and then thinks of Dong Dajian's previous situation, almost everyone guessed that something had happened in the Que Tower, but what happened was unknown.

The only thing that is certain is that what happened in the Que Tower scared Eunuch Dong like that, and it must be very terrifying.

Zhen Shiyuan's cloak hand trembled suddenly, and a bad feeling arose.

Looking back at Xu Hexiu, who wanted to go but couldn't go, and could only do it in a hurry, Zhen Shiyuan gave him a slightly calm look, turned his head and followed Tang Zhongyuan out of the door.

Going straight all the way, when passing by the lobby of Dali Temple, several officials in the hall were eagerly discussing the matter of the little guy who was killed in Zhoukou Station, and some people pulled their hair and shouted "inexplicable" and "confused" Yunyun's words, Zhen Shiyuan subconsciously tilted his head and ignored it. These rabbit cubs don't know about Lishan yet!

Walking outside the door, the carriage was already waiting outside the yamen, Zhen Shiyuan stepped on, and before he could pull the curtain of the carriage, he saw that the curtain was opened by one hand, and then the excited face appeared in his sight.

"Your Excellency, you're here, quick, quick!"

Fast? Zhen Shiyuan's lips trembled, he raised his hand and pointed at Feng Chengzuo's face, and put it down weakly.

It is almost an indisputable fact that something happened to the people in the Que Tower, but he still had a sense of powerlessness in front of Feng Yanzuo's face that could almost confirm that "someone is dead and there are corpses".

Where there are corpses, there are seals.

The seals are here...... I don't know what the tragic situation is in the building.

Zhen Shiyuan leaned against the wall of the car and sighed heavily.

Tang Zhongyuan got into the carriage, waved the whip, rolled the wheels, and drove forward.

……

Xu Hexiu didn't know how he walked back to the lobby, and the eager chatter in the lobby made him a little dazed, as if there was an invisible barrier separating him from everyone for a while.

"Hey!" Someone tugged at his sleeve.

Xu Hexiu sighed at this time, turned his head to look at the person who pulled his sleeve, and said in a trance: "What's the matter?" ”

What's up? The officer who pulled him stretched out his hand and shook it in front of him, and said, "Why is a person standing here?" Didn't you take over the killing of this little guy yourself? You should be the most familiar with it, so tell us about it! ”

Xu He said: "It's just an ordinary murder, and you still have to check from that little guy, Xie Yi and Lord Zhao." ”

"Two of the three you said died, and now there is only one Xie Yi left." The official knocked on his forehead and said, "Don't stand stupidly," and then turned to the official who was having a lively discussion.

"Who has a way to get Xie Yi to speak?"

"What can Xie Yi do if he doesn't cooperate at all?"

"Do you want to ask Xie Chengze to try it?"

"Don't talk nonsense, Lord Xie can't interfere in this matter."

"Alas! So what to do? ”

……

The lively discussion in the lobby was endless, Xu Hexiu had no intention of participating at this time, silently walked to his seat and sat down, and then opened the document in front of him.

I don't know if Lord Zhen can reveal one or two when he comes back after seeing Que Lou, and what happened to his second cousin, the family ...... You know?
