Chapter 15: The Pilgrims of the Plum Court 2

Zhen Bei nodded in agreement: "What Childe said is extremely true. ”

Let's say that this scholar is the person who tends to be inflammatory, and he is struggling to make friends with the children of your family, so as to get his help and increase the opportunity to rise to prominence.

Seeing that his set of concepts was affirmed, he couldn't help but dance with his eyebrows, and talked more and more eloquently: "I won't tell you, a few days ago, there were nobles who ordered a sunrise map of Yunshan, and on the night when Master Wushan became a Buddha, he watched the sunrise again in person on the roof of the Yuanwang Pavilion!" ”

Zhen Bei was surprised: "So on the night of the crime, you weren't in the room at all?" ”

Zhang Shusheng got carried away for a while, confided the truth, his face turned pale, and he hurriedly changed his words: "No, yes, it was before, the night before......"

Seeing Zhenbei's eyes like a torch, she looked at him with a smile, and beads of sweat fell from the scholar's forehead.

"You are so bold, you dare to lie and deceive the government! Tell me honestly, what are you hiding, whether Master Wushan's death has anything to do with you! Zhen Bei shouted.

Zhang Shusheng was so frightened that his feet were weak, and he knelt on the ground, shaking all over: "Son, spare your life." The little one did lie, but he just didn't want to cause unnecessary suspicion, so he behaved like this! ”

Seeing that his expression didn't seem to be fake, Zhen Bei hesitated: "Is this really the case? ”

Zhang Shusheng kowtowed a few times, a handful of tears and snot, and said: "The little one can swear that if Master Wushan is harmed by the little one, I will not die well, and there is no place to bury me!" ”

Zhen Bei said: "Can someone prove that you did stay in the Yuanwang Pavilion all night?" ”

Zhang Shusheng thought for a while, and said with a sad face and despair: "It is precisely because no one can testify for me, so I will lie, and it is forbidden to go upstairs at night." ”

Zhen Bei sighed: "Anyway, you go to the front hall to change your confession first!" I believe that as long as you are really innocent, Lord He will not be overly pursued and blame the good people. ”

Here, the official escorted Zhang Shusheng to re-record the confession without mentioning it, and Zhen Bei went to meet the businessman surnamed Jia.

Jia Rutian looked white and chubby, with a smile on his face that was a sign of a businessman and a fortune: "Gu Gongzi, is it?" Please sit inside and try the small tequila that I brought from my hometown! Oh, look at my brain, the hot water is gone! ”

He invited Zhen Bei to the upper seat, and after calling the little monk who was doing chores to help boil water, he sat down on the wooden chair next to the tea case, shook his head and said: "Since I learned that Master Wushan was killed, the little one is really shocked and angry, grief-stricken, and the whole person is in chaos all day long!" You say, which one who has suffered a thousand knives dares to murder the master, and he is not afraid of being punished by the Buddha, oops, this is a deal that outweighs the losses, it can't be done, it can't be done! ”

Zhen Bei looked around quietly, and found that although Jia Rutian's clothes were still bright, the items used were extremely rough and cheap, and it seemed that this businessman had indeed reached the point of exhaustion.

"I don't know if Boss Jia heard anything unusual on the night Master Wushan was killed?"

Merchant Jia leaned forward and pretended to be mysterious: "Gu Gongzi, the Buddha sound heard by the senior monks, and the little ones have also heard it!" It came from the direction of the room where the accident occurred! So then again, maybe the master has really ascended to heaven! ”

"Oh? Have you ever told anyone else about this? Zhen Bei said that he remembered that the person's confession was not mentioned in the case record.

Jia Shangshang said: "At that time, the little one was sleeping in a daze, and I heard a sound that sounded like a monk chanting scriptures, accompanied by fairy music, near and far. But when I woke up, I almost forgot about it. When the adults asked, we didn't dare to talk nonsense. But after being reminded by Miss Gu, it is almost certain that the voice is Sanskrit Xianle! ”

Zhen Bei was surprised: "My sister has already come?" ”

Merchant Jia nodded and praised, "Yes." Miss Gu, but she is a rare heroine among women, and women don't let her eyebrows! ”

He looked around cautiously from side to side, and whispered: "But Gu Gongzi, I really don't hide it." The small one is convinced that the master has self-destructed his body and become an immortal! ”

Half an hour later, after Zhen Bei came out of Jia Shang's room, she returned to the room where the government handled the case.

He Zhaoyuan was sitting on the table, looking through the letter in his hand.

Seeing Zhenbei step into the threshold and stand there, he hooked his fingers and motioned for him to come over: "Nephew Bei'er, but you have some clues?" ”

This person is too deep in the city, so it's better to have less contact in private!

Zhen Bei thought vigilantly in her heart, but now she could only bite the bullet and sit down opposite him according to his instructions: "Well, I have found some clues, but I haven't sorted out the connection yet." ”

He Zhaoyuan said: "It's good to have clues, but Miss Gu seems to have made an unexpected discovery!" ”

Seeing the calm look on the other party's face, he was a little disappointed: "Isn't the virtuous nephew curious, how far has Miss Gu progressed in this case?" ”

Zhen Bei lowered her eyes, isolated his inquiring gaze, and said calmly: "My sister has always been smart, and it is expected that she can find more clues, but there is still more than half of the time left before the end of the three days, and Zhen Bei will not admit defeat!" ”

He Zhaoyuan laughed and said, "Okay! Be ambitious! ”

He stood up and threw the envelope in his hand in front of Zhenbei: "This is the information I secretly sent to collect information about several people related to the case. Take a look at it, maybe it will help you in your investigation! ”

Zhen Bei hurriedly stood up and said sincerely: "Thank you, Lord He!" ”

He Zhaoyuan hooked his lips and glanced at him: "Don't thank me!" After you finish reading it, let Miss Gu take a look too! ”

This is to make a clear position and treat the two sisters and brothers of the Gu family equally.

"Yes." Zhen Beidao.

"Zhang Shusheng's matter, you did a good job!" He Zhaoyuan stretched his waist and said casually.

Zhen Bei was stunned, is this person praising him?

He Zhaoyuan had already walked in the direction of the door, and suddenly, he paused, turned his head and smiled: "It's not early!" I'm going back to the city, do you want to go with Belle and my nephew? ”

Zhenbei shook her head and said, "No, I want to stay in the temple these days." ”

He Zhaoyuan stared at him with complicated eyes for a few moments, pouted and sighed: "It's up to you, I will ask the master to arrange a place for you to live." ”

As he spoke, he turned and walked away.

Zhen Bei looked at his figure and said loudly: "Thank you, Lord He!" ”

He Zhaoyuan didn't look back, and waved his hand backwards at him.

This person is really incomprehensible!

Zhenbei sighed, opened the envelope, and frowned tighter the more she looked.

"Brother Bing, my son-in-law is in there?" The voice of yam came from outside the door.

"Little brother, who is your son-in-law?"

"Childe's name, how can we mention it as subordinates?"

"Huh? If you don't mention it, how do we know who he is? ”

Zhen Bei sighed secretly and walked out: "Yam, why are you here?" ”

When Yam saw him, his eyes lit up: "Childe, are you really inside?" ”
