Rumors spread all over Bian'an City, which is also where Qiu Pass finds it tricky.

The reason why rumors are called rumors is because they are unsubstantiated and attract people's attention, and it is precisely because of this that once the rumors spread, they spread extremely quickly.

But this rumor is different, it clearly spreads the details of the case file that is not public, targets Lin Ruo, and also uses the public opinion to force the emperor to pay attention to this case, forcing him, the elder of the first auxiliary pavilion, to interrogate Lin Ruo in advance, and even have to detain Su Muyu together.

Qiu Pass has decided many cases, including unsolved cases, doubtful cases, and old cases. In the case of Gu Yannian's murder, the physical evidence and human evidence all point to Lin Ruo, which can be said to be conclusive evidence, but there is inexplicable eccentricity in it.

To be honest, Qiu Kuai had indeed suspected Lin Ruo before, but when he carefully scrutinized all the files and personally looked at Gu Yannian's body and the place where the incident occurred, he was not so sure that the murderer was Lin Ruo. Especially the so-called "handwritten letter" from Lin Ruo.

However, when the rumors in Bian'an City flourished, he was confused.

This rumor seemed to have forced Lin Ruo to the death, but it made him wonder if this would be Lin Ruo's bitter trick. detained Su Muyu, and then quickly interrogated Lin Ruo, in order to prevent them from colluding in confessions.

At the moment, Lin Ruo's response is calm, and his seemingly frank and unrestrained rhetoric really makes it difficult for him to distinguish the truth from the false-this Lin Ruo is the same as the gentle, virtuous, dignified and decent Lord Minhui in everyone's mouth, but it is different. Perhaps from beginning to end, everyone's understanding of her is only superficial - when she was six years old, she dared to ask to draw a clear line with the Gu family when she was facing the saint, and this courage is really the same as the wise and brave Lord Shude who confused the rebels and blocked the sword for the Queen Mother.

Sensitive, sensitive, smart and young.

"Elder Qiu Ge, you detained Bo Yu in the Criminal Department, could it be that you suspect that this rumor came from him?" Lin Ruo raised his eyebrows, "Or, do you think this rumor was spread by Concubine Ben herself?" ”

Dali Siqing was thoughtful, but the squire of the Criminal Department and Jingzhao Mansion Yin didn't believe it.

There is someone behind this rumor, and this is a fact that anyone with a discerning eye can see. However, if it is said that the initiator is Lin Ruo, how is it possible? How can there be such a stupid person in the world who deliberately ruins his reputation?

It can't be Su Muyu either.

Lin Ruo also said: "I have known Boyu for more than ten years, and I still have this trust. Qiu Ge Lao, who examined the body of Gu's second brother that day, there were many people in Dali Temple, the Criminal Department and Jingzhao Mansion; And as a bitter lord and a scholar, Gu Ting should have also read the file, right? Why did Qiu Ge Lao suspect Master Su and Concubine Ben? ”

Qiu Kui frowned, and said sharply: "How do you know this?" Isn't it...... What did Lord Rong say? ”

"That's right," Lin Ruo nodded, and then covered his mouth in surprise, "Elder Qiu Ge, you won't suspect that it is the prince of my family, right?" Are you going to detain the prince as well? ”

"Hmph," Qiu Kui snorted coldly, and his white beard shook with it, "King Rong is an important minister of the imperial court, and if you tell a woman such a thing, you will naturally not be able to escape the guilt." ”

"Qiu Ge Lao is really iron-faced and selfless!" Lin Ruo tilted his head lightly and sneered, "Husband and wife are originally the same forest bird, one is prosperous and the other is humiliated." The prince was worried that I was framed and designed, so I was prepared in advance, why is it wrong? Could it be that something happened to Qiu Ge's hometown, and he wouldn't discuss countermeasures with his wife and concubines at all? ”

Qiu Kui was cross-examined, choked, and then refuted: "Lin, don't confuse the public in the hall!" Murder is a serious crime against the law, but King Rong will reveal the details of the case to you and discuss countermeasures with you, which is the crime of shielding and coercing. How can it be compared with ordinary family deliberations? ”

Lin Ruo raised his eyebrows: "In that case, if one day, Qiu Ge Lao's children and grandchildren are framed, and they come to you to discuss countermeasures, you are also shielding and coercing?" ”

"You ......"

"Bah, bah," Lin Ruo patted his mouth twice and smiled apologetically, "This analogy is not appropriate, Qiu Ge Lao, you are the emperor's teacher, and Qiu Jiaerlang's tutor must be extremely strict and fair." In another situation, for example, Qiu Ge Lao, you have been an official for many years, and your protégés are all over the world, in case a person in which department is maliciously impeached and comes to the door for help, if Qiu Ge Lao you see it, it can be regarded as shielding and coercing, right? ”

"The old man must be to avoid suspicion!"

"Oh, Qiu Ge Lao is really iron-faced and selfless, and he does things according to the rules!" Lin Ruo nodded and praised it sincerely, but there was a faint sarcastic smile on his face, "Then I don't know if Qiu Ge Lao has seen the gift list sent by Mrs. Ge when Gu Ting remarried the Lu family?" ”

Qiu Kui frowned slightly, not understanding why Lin Ruo was involved in this.

"The day before yesterday, I went to Second Brother Gu's Mansion to offer condolences, and I happened to bump into Mrs. Lu Shi, the secretary of the ministry. She carried a gold-inlaid Hetian jade bracelet in her hand, I remember that it was my mother's dowry, but the Lu family said that it was given by the old lady of the pavilion when Gu Ting raised her as the main room. If the concubine is not mistaken, there is a clause in Donglu's marriage law: If the successor room was the maid of the deceased mistress in the past, the degree should not exceed the specifications of the deceased matrium, as a sign of respect. Lin Ruo looked at Qiu Ai with a smile, "Elder Qiu Ge, do you think it was the old lady of the pavilion who committed it knowingly, or the lady of the Ministry of Shangshu Lu who committed the crime of disrespect and theft?" ”

In the face of such questioning, if someone else were replaced, most of them would have been exposed as "this matter has nothing to do with the case", but Qiu Ai is a stubborn, rigid, and never favoritist old stubborn, and will not pass the statement. Surprised, he promised in a deep voice: "The old man doesn't know about this matter, when I go back to the house to ask Mrs. Ming, and then summon the Lu family to come for questioning, I will definitely give you an explanation." ”

"Since the elder said so, the concubine will make up a complaint later, so that she can act according to the rules." Lin Ruo smiled slyly, "But Elder Ge, when you go back to the mansion and ask Old Lady Ge, it seems that the prince came back from the early dynasty and asked me if the death of Second Brother Gu was related to me, the situation is much the same?" At that time, the old lady asked you: 'Who said this' and what evidence is there?' and you replied: 'It is what Princess Rong Lin said.' ''She saw it with her own eyes. It's like the prince went down to the court and asked me, 'Gu Yannian's death, but you did it?' ''Did you write that letter?'' ''The stab wound on his body was the one you stabbed?'' And so much. ”

Looking at Qiu Ai Tieqing's face, as well as the faces of Dali Siqing, Shangshu of the Criminal Department, and Yin of Jingzhao Mansion, Lin Ruo smiled faintly and raised his head slightly: "Elder Qiu Ge, what do you think?" ”

Qiu Kuai took a deep breath and said in a deep voice: "What a clever mouth!" ”

Lin Ruo hit the snake with the stick, and said with a smile: "What Elder Qiu Ge said is very true, and the emperor and grandmother also praise me like this."
