Cai Haoyang hung his head and did not speak.

Zhao Yi instructed the catcher at the door: "Call his wife and concubine." ”

"Don't, don't." Cai Haoyang kowtowed, "My lord, I said!" ”

Cai Haoyang wiped his sweat with his sleeve and whispered: "The person who scratched and scratched my arm is, it's Cai Mengshi." ”

Song Ning and Zhao Yi looked at each other, and Song Ning asked, "Zhao Zhutou, do you believe it?" ”

Zhao Zhutou smiled sarcastically: "I don't believe it." ”

"It's true, I ask you two to believe me." After Cai Haoyang finished speaking, Song Ning glanced at the door, and went to find Cai Mengshi next door.

Cai Mengshi straightened his back and came in.

Song Ning asked bluntly: "He said that you had an adulterous affair with him, and the wound on his arm was scratched by you?" ”

Cai Mengshi shook his head: "No, absolutely not." My lord Mingjian, how can I have a relationship with him. ”

"Big brother, you, don't spew blood."

Cai Haoyang looked at Cai Mengshi and shouted: "You actually don't admit it?" ”

"You didn't scratch the wound on this arm?"

Cai Mengshi shook his head: "I didn't, I have been talking to my sister-in-law in the room at noon, and I haven't seen you at all." Besides, you're my big brother, how can I have anything to do with you? ”

"Your Excellency." Cai Mengshi said to Song Ning, "What the women said on the road, please discern it." ”

Cai Haoyang pointed at Cai Mengshi and scolded: "You stinky bitch, didn't you kill the second child?" ”

"Why should I kill him? Even if he doesn't live with me, but if he doesn't die for a day, I will be the second wife of Caifu, and in the days of fine clothes and food, where can I find such a place again? ”

"I'm a widow when he's dead, am I better than I am now?"

I have to say that what Cai Mengshi said is very reasonable.

Cai Haoyang was angry, pointed at Cai Mengshi and said to Song Ning: "My lord, she framed me. ”

"Would you like to borrow a horn?" Zhao Yi said coldly, "It's useful to shout, what else do you want us to do?" ”

Cai Haoyang closed his voice in fright.

"You said she tickled you, had an affair with you, and spoke with evidence."

Cai Haoyang looked at Cai Mengshi and suddenly said, "She, she has a big mole on her chest." ”

Cai Meng's face turned pale, and he knelt down at Song Ning and Zhao Yi: "Two adults, please lock up the people's women, people...... The women wanted to stay in prison until the killer was found. ”

"So as not to be taken advantage of by those who have evil intentions and are ruthless."

Cai Haoyang questioned her: "Who is ruthless?" ”

"You!" Cai Mengshi said, "You killed the second child and the third child, and now you want to kill me, an insider." ”

Cai Haoyang asked, "Am I harming them?" ”

Cai Mengshi did not speak.

"Why did I harm them? You're spewing blood. Cai Haoyang said.

Song Ning knocked on the table to silence them.

Outside the door, Cai Haoyang's eldest son, Cai Jun, came in with a box with twelve grids, each of which was covered with flannel.

Inside the box were eleven pairs of walnuts.

"One less pair?" Zhao Yi motioned to show it to Cai Haoyang.

Cai Haoyang collapsed on the ground: "Impossible, twelve pairs of walnuts are clearly placed inside." ”

"When was it less?"

Zhao Yi slapped the table: "Your lie is simply clumsy, it's a real trick!" ”

"I—I really didn't, my lord, I really didn't kill my two younger brothers." Cai Haoyang shouted in fright.

"The two adults are discerning."

Song Ning asked people to bring them down and bring the rest of the Cai Mansion to them.

The women and children of the Cai family were brought over, Song Ning looked at the people, his eyes fell on Wu Yong, and asked, "Steward Wu, why didn't you come just now?" ”

"Why didn't Mr. Cui come?"

"Mr. Cui, I don't know, but the villain was beaten and unwell, and he has been lying in the room." Wu Yong said.

A seven or eight-year-old boy over there said, "Sir is here, waiting outside." ”

"Sir is giving us a lesson in the afternoon."

Song Ning motioned for Cui Chu to come in.

Cui Chu returned to his afternoon class, and by the way, he confirmed the alibi of Cai Haoyang's eldest son, Cai Jun.

Song Ning bowed slightly, and didn't ask him again: "So who saw when Cai Yun left the mansion?" ”

Cui Chu replied: "The third master was in the study in the morning, and I saw him when I went to the study to get the book." Before lunch, he said that the third master had made an appointment with a friend and went out. ”

Ask again, everyone doesn't know what friends Cai Yun has dated.

"What do you think if someone is deliberately trying to take revenge on your family?" Song Ning paused as he spoke, "For example, who does your family have an enmity with?" ”

Everyone shook their heads, saying that although there were not many people they had made friends with, there would definitely be no people who wanted the Cai family to be destroyed.

Song Ning let them all go.

He also instructed Wang Xiao to verify everyone's alibi.

In the entire Cai Mansion, except for Wu Yong, the other alibi proofs are very clear.

Song Ning and Zhao Yi sat opposite each other, agreeing with the case.

Assuming that Cai Haoyang did both cases, why did he bother to kill his two younger brothers so much...... The point is, why would he do it himself?

"Do you think the murderer's method of killing is very strange?" Song Ning asked.

Zhao Yi bowed: "It's like a set goal, a plan to achieve it, instead of killing people to settle the grudge." ”

"Yes!" Song Ning nodded, "He killed Cai Erye, if you want to destroy the corpse, you can tie a stone and sink the deceased to the bottom of the lake, but you can put the deceased at the bottom of the boat and float, as if he is also waiting, when Cai Erye's body will float up." ”

"Cai Yun's death is even more strange, he strangled Cai Yun to death when he injured him so badly."

The real torture should be to put the seriously injured and painful enemy in a place that no one knows, and let him slowly die in pain, hunger, cold and terror.

But the killer didn't.

She thought it was weird, but she couldn't think of anything weird for a while.

There is a sense of déjà vu.

"I suspect Wu Yong, but I think that although Cai Haoyang has a motive, there is no need to bother so much." Zhao Yi and Song Ning said, "Wu Yong, as the manager of the first house, he shouldn't be so aggressive even if he is arrogant, and I asked the people around him, he was not like this in the past. ”

Wu Yong was deliberately provoking them.

Song Ning was very surprised, she didn't know that Zhao Yi had thought so much, she bowed her head and said: "I also doubt him, he has time today, but ...... On the night of the ninth day of the new year, the little maid in the house saw him at home. ”

"That's what I don't understand." Zhao Yi said, "Could it be that Cai Mengshi and Wu Yong conspired to do it?" ”

Song Ning said in a low voice: "Both cases require the corpse to be moved, it is not easy to be a woman, if they conspire and Wu Yong covers her, this arrangement is unreasonable." ”

"Moreover, on the afternoon of the ninth day of the new year, their family had dinner together, and no one saw her go out of the city at the city gate in the evening."

Wang Xiao and Zhang Zhifeng listened on the side, looking at each other, Zhang Zhifeng asked, "Don't you two suspect Cai Haoyang?" ”

"Didn't you lock up Cai Haoyang?"

Zhao Yi said: "He just killed people and robbed his family property, so he didn't have to bother so much." ”

"But, but his suspicion is very big, and the clues are all focused on him." Zhang Zhifeng said.

All the line data was concentrated on Cai Haoyang, which made Song Ning stunned, looked at Zhang Zhifeng and raised his eyebrows, Zhao Yi obviously thought of it.

"Lord Wang, let's go!" She stood up.

Zhao Yi shouted: "Okay! ”

The two walked side by side.

Leaving Zhang Zhifeng and Wang Xiao facing each other with a confused expression, Zhang Zhifeng asked, "Is there anything wrong with what I said just now?" ”

"No, sir."

Zhang Zhifeng scratched his ears and cheeks, and muttered: "I didn't think there was anything wrong with our investigation before, and I didn't think I was stupid." ”

"Yes, sir."

"I have been following the prince and Lord Song for the past two days, and I feel like a fool, what they are saying and doing, the villain doesn't understand it at all."

As soon as you figured out what was in front of you, people had already jumped a few steps in a row and thought of the end.

"I can't think clearly, I don't want to, just follow the errand."

Zhang Zhifeng was also frustrated, no wonder he was still a county magistrate for so many years, and then looked at Song Tuiguan, such a smart and exquisite person must have a bright future in the future.

Alas, people are more popular than dead people.

The two left here, and as soon as they arrived at the door, their subordinates replied: "My lord, Wang Zhutou, the prince and Lord Song have returned to Jinan." ”

"Huh?" Zhang Zhifeng and Wang Xiao were completely stupid, "They said to go, yes...... Is it really gone? ”

Wang Xiao scratched his head and said, "No, no, I can't." ”

Zhang Zhifeng smacked his lips and asked the catcher who was talking back and forth: "Didn't leave anything to say?" ”

"Stay," he replied, "the prince said when he left, don't do anything superfluous." ”

Zhang Zhifeng understood, nodded and said, "Okay, then don't do anything." ”

"That'll do, scare the hell out of me." After Wang Xiao finished speaking, he suddenly thought of something, "Uncle Cai and Cai Mengshi are still in prison?" Don't you doubt Cai Haoyang? ”

Zhang Zhifeng nodded: "I understand this time, the adults are protecting Cai Haoyang." ”

"The murderer intends to destroy the Cai family?" Wang Xiao asked.

Zhang Zhifeng thinks so.

"That, Lord Song said, let Wang Zhutou list everyone's whereabouts, time, alibi, and Cai Haoyang's three million taels of deception to find out the cause and effect."

"Oh, then I'll do it."

Zhao Yi and Song Ning left the county government and went out of the city, many people saw it, and someone asked, "Are the two adults from other places gone?" ”

"Looks like it's gone. The case hasn't been investigated, has it? ”

"After the investigation, isn't there evidence to prove that it is the uncle of the Cai family, who killed his two younger brothers and swallowed the family property alone."

Someone chimed in: "Yes, I heard that there was a walnut on the boat that killed Second Master Cai, and the walnut was Uncle Cai's. ”

"So, that's the case?"

"Nine times out of ten, the case has been decided, everyone has been imprisoned, and he and Mrs. Cai's second wife have an adulterous affair to murder Cai Erye, and then kill Cai Sanye."

"The motive for the murder is sufficient."

"Tut, the Cai family is really messy, killing each other for the sake of Brother Qian."

Everyone sighed.

For three days in a row, Yangxin City was discussing the Cai family's case, waiting for Zhang Zhifeng to ascend to the court to adjudicate the case.

At this moment, Cai's mansion is turning upside down.
