Chapter 705: Gold Medal in Hand Search
That's right, the General Guo mentioned below is the elder brother of Xian Guifei and the uncle of King Jie. Guo Yi is the son of General Guo's third brother, General Guo's nephew, and a cousin of King Jie. ”
After Yu Wenyao finished speaking, he asked puzzledly: "Lord Wan, it seems that it is indeed a little strange for him to get close to him now, is he the one who really instructed the woodcutter?" ”
Wan Lin looked at him and smiled slightly, and said an answer that shocked Yu Wenyao.
"I don't think he's the one who commands the woodcutter, he's the woodcutter himself!"
"What do you say? How is this possible? ”
Yu Wenyao couldn't believe it, he couldn't connect Guo Yi with the woodcutter.
Wan Lin asked again, "Haven't you heard of the disguise technique?" In fact, there is nothing difficult for the woodcutter to dress up. Didn't you listen to You Laoqi say that the woodcutter has a beard? His beard may be disguised. ”
"Ah, could there be such a thing?" Yu Wenyao couldn't believe it.
Huo Jing said at this time: "When we are investigating the enemy, we often disguise ourselves, and sticking a beard is the simplest disguise technique. ”
Yu Wenyao was a little convinced.
Wan Lin said again: "The three of us can know about this matter, and please don't tell anyone else for the time being." Otherwise, once the news leaks out, I am afraid that I will startle the snake. ”
Yu Wenyao said cooperatively: "Two adults, please rest assured, I will definitely not talk nonsense." It's just that my heart is a little shocked. ”
After Wan Lin and Huo Jing left Yu's house, they didn't go to Guo Yi's house immediately.
"Lord Wan, if this matter is really done by Guo Yi, it must have something to do with General Guo or King Jie, or even Concubine Xian. Shall we first bring Guo Yi to Dali Temple for questioning, or will we go directly to King Jie or General Guo? ”
Wan Lin said without thinking: "Let's go to Guo Yi first and find out his tone." It would be a bit presumptuous to go to King Jie and General Guo now. ”
After the two finished discussing, they went straight to Guo Yi's house.
Guo Yi's family was very polite when they saw the two of them, saying that they would let them in as soon as they went in.
However, Huo Jing was worried that Guo Yi would know that they were coming to him for questioning, and then run away because of his weak heart, so he simply stopped the pouncer, and walked into the door with Wan Lin in a big stride.
The servant had no choice but to take them to Guo Yi with a bitter face.
Guo Yi was also at Dou Xingzhi's house just now, and he had just returned home and was reading in the study.
As soon as he heard that Wan Lin and Huo Jing were coming, he was surprised and at the same time, he was also very polite to them.
Wan Lin was afraid that Guo Yi would think that Huo Jing was young and looked down on him, and he was also afraid that Huo Jing would be annoyed by Guo Yi again when he was young and vigorous, so he opened his mouth first.
"Guo Gongzi, I heard Yu Wenyao Yu Gongzi say that you are friends with him, is this true?"
Wan Linwen's heart was calm, and after Guo Yi heard what he said, he didn't seem to be unnatural.
Guo Yi replied politely: "Master Wan is right, I am friends with Yu Gongzi, we often discuss poetry together, and we often go to each other's homes as guests. Excuse me, why do you ask this? ”
Wan Lin replied directly: "Were you also present when Yu Gongzi attended the poetry meeting at the Dou family just now?" ”
Guo Yi replied: "I am also below." Not long after you returned, you came. ”
Wan Lin asked again: "Then do you know why Yu Gongzi was brought to Dali Temple for questioning?" ”
Guo Yi shook his head, "I don't know about this, please let Master Wan know." ”
"I was assassinated by my wife and kidnapped by others. Our husband and wife are just ordinary people, and when we encounter such a thing, we just need to report to the official. But my wife received a threatening letter, and someone threatened her to do something important that related to the stability of the court. In this way, the affairs of our husband and wife have become a major matter in the court. Therefore, His Majesty also attached great importance to this matter, so he asked the prince to serve as a special envoy to investigate the case. ”
Guo Yi listened carefully to Wan Lin's words, and when he finished speaking, Guo Yi asked in confusion: "Then what does this matter have to do with Brother Wen Yao?" ”
Wan Lin continued to explain calmly: "Because the words on the threatening letter my wife received are almost the same as Yu Gongzi's handwriting, Yu Gongzi is suspected of being the mastermind behind kidnapping me and assassinating her. ”
After Wan Lin finished speaking, Guo Yi immediately helped Yu Wenyao speak.
"You must be mistaken! Brother Wen Yao is a good friend of Xia, and Xia knows him very well, so he will definitely not be the mastermind behind the scenes. Please find out the truth! ”
Huo Jing didn't speak for a long time, and then couldn't help but say: "We have found out the truth, and we have not wronged Yu Gongzi." ”
Guo Yi immediately said with relief: "That's really good! I guess the adults will find out the truth. ”
"That's why we're coming to you." Huo Jing suddenly said something again.
"Huh? What do you mean by that? Guo Yi was puzzled.
"Now that Yu Gongzi has cleared the suspicion, then of course we have to come to find another suspect."
Huo Jing said, and the corners of his mouth showed a "you know" smile.
Seeing his expression, Guo Yi frowned puzzled, and asked with some dissatisfaction: "What does the prince mean by this, is he treating Guo as a suspect?" ”
Huo Jing didn't speak, he had already answered him with his eyes.
Guo Yi endured his dissatisfaction and said as calmly as possible: "Two adults, can you tell me why you are suspicious?" Where the hell does it look like a kidnapping and assassination suspect? You'll have to give me an explanation, or you'll get angry. ”
Huo Jingcai didn't care if he would be angry, and said directly: "Do you dare to let us search your house?" ”
Guo Yi said resolutely: "I'm sorry, I'm afraid this can't." If you don't have official documents in your hands, how can you search other people's homes at will? Besides, it can't be any behind-the-scenes instigators, don't be in a hurry to investigate the case and get dizzy, and wronged good people. ”
Wan Lin smiled calmly, "Hehe, Guo Gongzi don't worry, we suspect that you must be reasonable." As for whether you can search your home, you don't need to be in person, we have a gold medal from the emperor, and seeing this gold medal is like His Majesty coming in person. If Guo Gongzi is not convinced, he can go to the palace to ask His Majesty for an explanation. ”
Huo Jing cooperated very well and took out the royal gold medal, Guo Yi wilted as soon as he saw the gold medal, but he still had thousands of dissatisfactions in his heart.
"Y-Aren't you bullying? Haven't you found anyone to blame, so you have to take it down? ”
Wan Lin's face still did not change, and he said in a gentle tone: "Don't get me wrong, Childe, we are just searching for evidence according to clues, not taking anyone to blame." And Gongzi, you are the nephew of Concubine Xian and General Guo, and the younger brother of His Royal Highness King Jie, how dare we take you to blame? ”
"But you ..... You are not allowed to search my house. ”
Guo Yi was very angry, but there was no way to stop them.
"What's going on?"
Guo Yi's father, Guo Hongbo, heard the movement in the front yard and walked into the study with a long face.
"You guys are ......" As soon as Guo Hongbo spoke, he recognized Huo Jing and Wan Lin.
Although Guo Hongbo is a righteous doctor with little real power, he also knows some major figures in the court.
He knew what had happened recently, so when he saw Huo Jing and Wan Lin actually coming to his house, a sense of foreboding suddenly surged in his heart.
"Lord Wan, the prince of the world, you are here, the old man is really disappointed! I hope that the two adults will forgive their sins. ”
Guo Hongbo's very polite appearance made Huo Jing and Wan Lin feel embarrassed.
Wan Lin said simply: "Lord Guo, the two of us are here to ask Guo Gongzi to assist in the investigation of the case. We would like to find something in your house, and we ask for your bearing. ”
Wan Lin's words were very euphemistic, Guo Hongbo had already seen the gold medal in Huo Jing's hand.
He knew the significance of the gold medal and knew he couldn't stop them.
Guo Hongbo had no choice but to say politely: "The two of you searched the old man's house for official business, and the old man must fully cooperate." I don't know what case you two asked the dog to cooperate in the investigation? ”
Wan Lin replied: "It is the case of Mrs. Zai Xia being assassinated and kidnapped. ”
Wan Lin said lightly, as if he was talking about someone else's business.
When Guo Hongbo heard Wan Lin's words, his face couldn't help but change slightly, but he still had to keep calm and said: "Dog, he is just a scholar, how can he have anything to do with such a thing?" Is there a misunderstanding here? ”
Wan Lin said politely: "Is it a misunderstanding, you have to find something in your house to know." And we have to ask Guo Gongzi some more questions. ”
When Wan Lin spoke, Huo Jing had already asked people to start a comprehensive search in the Guo Mansion.
If Guo Yi is a person who has studied disguise techniques, most of the things used for disguise will be hidden in the house.
When Huo Jing watched people search Guo's mansion, Wan Lin interrogated Guo Yi in the house, Guo Hongbo didn't dare to go out in order to protect his son, and stood quietly to the side and listened.
But after a stick of incense or so, the searching officers made a discovery.
They really found the beard, fake skin, wig, and other objects used for disguise in Guo Yi's room.
Huo Jing happily brought the things to Wan Lin, "Master Wan, what do you think these are?" ”
Wan Lin was really surprised when he saw these things, and he only guessed when he came to Guo Yi, but he didn't expect him to guess correctly.
"Guo Gongzi, can you explain these things?"
Guo Yi didn't panic at all when he saw these things, and a very shallow sneer appeared on the corner of his mouth.
"Hehe, what's wrong with these things? This is something that I like to collect on weekdays.,Dare to ask if it's a violation of Dachen's law to collect these things in Xia? ”
Wan Lin was not in a hurry, and smiled at him, "Hehe, Guo Gongzi, of course you didn't violate Dachen's law by collecting these things." ”
Wan Lin said, and took out two things from these props.
"As long as you are willing to bring these two things with us to meet someone, after meeting him, you will naturally know whether you have anything to do with this case."
