Hearing Ji Wenxu's words, the guard didn't have any expression, he knew Ji Wenxu's identity, and said, "If necessary, we can also get some evidence." ”

"You mean to make false evidence?" Ji Wenxu raised his eyebrows slightly and said, "No, since I took over this case, I won't use false evidence to solve the case, what is fake is fake, and Taiwei Zhai is definitely not a fool." ”

The guard said, "Whatever you want, the eldest lady said, if you need any help, we can help you." ”

Ji Wenxu said: "This time, in addition to asking some details, there is also a question. ”

The guard's gaze looked at Ji Wenxu.

"You said that after Captain Zhai's people killed people and set fires, you went in to check, but did you find any people alive?" asked Ji Wenxu, "If I guessed correctly, it should be a boy about ten years old." ”

The guard listened to Ji Wenxu's words, and did not answer him immediately, but asked, "How do you know?"

Ji Wenxu knew that they should know about it.

"The Yi family has a population registration, and even the subordinates are registered very clearly, I know it in the Yamen file, but the file shows that the Yi family has three ten-year-old children, two of whom are still born to the family, and one is the concubine of the Yi family. Ji Wenxu said, "I have checked all those corpses, and after I sorted them out, there was just one less child about ten years old." ”

The guard raised his eyebrows slightly, at that time, Captain Zhai's people were menacing, and they slaughtered the Yi family all over the house at night, and they searched for the entire house afterwards, but they didn't find any living people setting fire to leave.

The child of the Yi family escaped this catastrophe because he was put in a well.

Knowing that Ji Wenxu was as careful as a hair, he didn't hide it: "That kid was too frightened, and he didn't know anything, the eldest lady said that he didn't have to reveal his identity and found a good family for him to adopt." ”

Ji Wenxu listened to the guard's words and nodded: "Since it is Yan Ning, then do as she is, after all, if Taiwei Zhai knows that the Yi family still has a child alive, he will definitely be killed, it is better to let him hide his identity and be an ordinary person." ”

"Do you want to investigate the case? I have evidence. ”

While Ji Wenxu was talking to the guards, a ten-year-old boy walked out of the inner room and looked at Ji Wenxu with heavy eyes.

The guard was stunned for a moment, then looked at the tea bowl next to him.

"You didn't drink tea just now?" the guard asked.

Knowing that Ji Wenxu was coming, the guards drugged him in advance, so that he could sleep quietly in the inner room, and naturally nothing would go wrong.

It's just that he didn't expect that the little boy who was still very well-behaved was scheming this time.

Ji Wenxu's eyes looked at the young man, and then at the guard.

The little boy's eyes kept looking at Ji Wenxu: "I have evidence, but I want to know who you are." ”

Ji Wenxu said: "My name is Ji Wenxu, I am an official of the Criminal Department, and I am also the Qin Cha sent by the imperial court to investigate the murder case of the Yi family. ”

In fact, the little young master had been pretending to be asleep in the inner room just now, but he had already heard a lot of their words.

These people saved him, but he didn't know the identities of these people, so he didn't dare to expose himself easily, but when he heard Ji Wenxu's conversation, he knew that they were investigating the case.

The boy fell silent.

Ji Wenxu said: "You said you have evidence, what do you know?"

The little boy raised his head to look at Ji Wenxu, looking at the serious look on his face that didn't seem to be fake, he knew that if these people wanted to harm themselves, they couldn't wait until now, so they must be the opposite of the other group of people who killed them.

"My name is Yi Jun, and I am Yi Xingzhi's concubine. Yi Jun spoke, "I don't know who Taiwei Zhai is in your mouth, but I have evidence of easy corruption. ”

Ji Wenxu raised his eyebrows slightly, and said, "The evidence of your father's corruption, why did you hand it over to us?"

Yi Jun's face was cold, and he said: "Although he is my nominal father, he has always been bad to me and my mother, those who killed Yi Xingzhi, I naturally don't care, and I am even a little happy, but they also killed my mother." ”

His eyes flashed with hatred.

Ji Wenxu listened to Yi Jun's words, nodded, and understood Yi Jun's intentions, in order to avenge his mother.

He said, "What about your evidence?"

Seeing that he didn't have the slightest look of surprise, Yi Jun's eyes flashed slightly, and he said, "I buried it in the yard." ”

Ji Wenxu and the guards glanced at each other, and then decided to take Yi Jun back to the burned Yi Mansion.

Since Yi Jun was rescued by them, he has not come out, and now that he has returned to Yi Mansion, tears have fallen uncontrollably.

Ji Wenxu looked at him like this and said, "Don't worry, I will order someone to bury those bones." ”

After all, there are too many bones, and some of their backs are burned out of shape, so naturally they can't distinguish their identities, and it is not easy to find out his mother, and they can only roughly find people of a similar age.

Yi Jun glanced up at Ji Wenxu and said lightly: "My mother's left little finger is broken in half. ”

"Good. Ji Wenxu said.

Yi Jun returned to his original yard, which was now burned to the ground, and even the trees were burned to charcoal.

He came to the big tree and said, "I have buried my things here." ”

Those guards listened to Yi Jun's words, and then stepped forward and began to dig with shovels.

It didn't take long to dig up a vase with a sealed mouth closed.

Yi Jun smashed the vase, took out two books and handed them to Ji Wenxu.

Ji Wenxu saw that there were two ledgers, opened and turned a few pages, his eyes widened, as if he had seen something surprising.

Yi Jun finally saw other emotions on Ji Wenxu's face, and said, "Is this evidence enough?"

This is Yi Xingzhi's own private account book, which records some shady things, not only his corruption and bribery records, but also evidence of "filial piety" to the people above, and a specific amount.

Such a thing should be the reason for the murder.

Ji Wenxu looked at these two account books and sighed lightly: "I was thinking about how to catch the handle of the second prince, but I didn't expect it to come out." ”

Originally, I thought that after coming to Zhangzhou, I must use the skills taught by my master to investigate the case, but I didn't expect to be told the murderer by my little aunt at the beginning, and not long after coming to Zhangzhou, someone sent the evidence to him.

Do you still need to investigate this case?!

Yi Jun listened to Ji Wenxu's words and was a little puzzled.

Ji Wenxu laughed twice, patted Yi Jun's shoulder, and said: "This evidence is very important, with this evidence, the murderer who instructed the murder of your whole family will have nowhere to hide." ”

It is clearly written in this account book that most of the money that Yi Xingzhi has collected over the years has gone into the money bag of the second prince.

Now because of the deduction of the money from the river dam, the river has burst its banks, and the second prince is afraid that it will affect him, so he will naturally kill Yi Xing.

With the evidence in hand, see how the second prince turns over.

The guard said: "The people killed by Taiwei Zhai's men, you identify the second prince like this, and there is still no evidence of Taiwei Zhai. ”

Ji Wenxu looked at the guards and said, "There is no need for evidence for this, anyway, they are all in a group, if the second prince knew that this fire was burning on his body, he would be annoyed and angry, and he staged a dog-eat-dog show with Captain Zhai, right?"

When the time comes, there is no need for others to interfere, but I am afraid that they will pinch it themselves.

Ji Wenxu's eyes looked at Yi Jun and said, "Don't worry, we won't reveal your identity, and we will find you an adoptive home as soon as possible." ”

Now that Yi Jun's family has been destroyed, he has nowhere to go.

Yi Jun said, "Can I follow you?"

Ji Wenxu looked at him puzzled.

Yi Jun said: "I want to go to Chang'an to know the outcome of this case." ”

Ji Wenxu's eyes looked at the guard.

The guard said, "The eldest lady just said that he should be placed well, but if he has other ideas, he can decide for himself." ”

Ji Wenxu said: "I don't accept people who eat idle meals, so you can be my little servant." ”

Yi Jun nodded, he had suffered a lot in Yifu, and it was not difficult to be a small servant.

He and his mother suffered so much in Yifu that they wanted to leave this home for a long time, but every time they wanted to go out, they would be beaten by their father.

He sneaked into Yi Xingzhi's study and stole these two account books, originally thinking that he would be punished in the future, but he didn't expect the entire Yi Mansion to be killed by him.

found the evidence, Ji Wenxu stayed in Guzhou for another two days, but it was not his turn to intervene in the disaster relief, so he secretly returned to Chang'an with the evidence and Yi Jun.

Taiwei Zhai and the second prince thought that the matter was complete, and it was impossible to guess that Ji Wenxu had already obtained the evidence.

After returning to Chang'an, Ji Wenxu was afraid that someone would be watching him, after all, he was killed in Cha Yi's house, and now he has returned to Chang'an so soon, if he is discovered, he will soon be unable to hide the evidence in his hand.

So let Yi Jun deal with Ji Yanning.

Thinking that Yi Jun was the same age as Ji Lang, he temporarily asked him to be Ji Lang's little servant.

Ji Yanning looked at Yi Jun, this child is not bad-looking, I heard that his mother is a Qinglou Oiran, naturally she is beautiful, and he has inherited a lot of advantages from his mother.

Later, his mother was ruined by Yi Xingzhi's wife, and the mother and son lived a particularly miserable life in the house.

It's no wonder he hated his father and even stole those two books.

Ji Yanning said: "You are only here temporarily, but you have to keep to yourself, under my nose, you don't want to make any moves that make us embarrassed." ”

She spoke very softly and had a nice voice, but the warning in her words let Yi Jun know that she was definitely not a place to be presumptuous.

Ji Lang, who was on the side, said: "Sister, don't worry, he's here with me, it's okay." ”

Ji Yanning's eyes looked at Ji Lang, with a smile in his eyes, and said, "I naturally believe in Lang'er." ”
