"Let's assume another situation, if it is Zhang Xundu who slanders Gong Wang, there will be many unexplained doubts." At this time, the spring return had not yet recovered women's clothes, the weather was too hot, she shook off a folding fan and shook it heavily: "First of all, Zhang Yundu's motivation." He and Gong Wang were originally close friends, otherwise it would be impossible to introduce Gong Wang to Jing Xuan, and insisted that he was jealous and hated Gong Wang to win Jing Xuan's heart, so he slandered Gong Wang, but the deceased was Jing Xuan, and Zhang Xundu loved Jing Xuan, so who killed Jing Xuan? ”

King Zhou pondered for a while before he said: "Hate because of love, this may be Zhang Xundu's motive." ”

"If it was Zhang Yundu who killed someone, Gong Wang would have been as Gong Jingyi said that day, he didn't go out at all, Zhang Yundu first killed Jingxuan, and then had to buy Tang Li Du and so on, so that he could achieve his plan of killing two birds with one stone. Tang Li Du Zong has long been in contact with the Zhang family, will he obey the words of a seventeen or eighteen-year-old boy like Zhang Yundu? Therefore, it must be the head of the Zhang Kuang family who came forward to persuade Tang Li Du to bend the law to protect him.

However, the Gong family is not an ordinary family, and there is no enmity with the Zhang family, will Zhang Guoyu agree with his son's plan and rashly make enemies? Is it that although he knows that his son has killed Jing Xuan, fabricating Jing Xuan is suicide, which is the best way to settle this matter? Jingxuan was originally an orphan girl, and she was also abandoned by Gong Wangshi in the first place, it is impossible for the Gong family to stand up for Jingxuan, no matter what cause Jingxuan died, no one sued, the government did not investigate, not to mention that this hypothesis came true, Tang Lidu and Zhang Jingyi had already colluded, and Zhang Jingyi had no need to make enemies of the Gong family, and Gong Jingyi had endless trouble. ”

King Zhou was completely convinced this time.

But Chungui said: "Let's go back to the assumption that Gong Wang killed someone, this case is indeed still suspicious." ”

"What's the doubt?" King Zhou was in good spirits.

"Gong Wang can only kill people in anger, but Jing Xuan was killed by a knife, even if Zhang Xundu mediates, Gong Wang promised to go to Infinity Garden to see Jing Xuan again, but he can't be premeditated, so why is he carrying a knife? And after he killed, he would definitely not hide it from Gong Jingyi, Gong Jingyi should have thought of killing the servant who came forward to rent Infinity Garden first, resulting in no proof of death, but Gong Jingyi did not do this, and the servant was actually captured by Tang Li Du.

And since the servant has already confessed, why did he commit suicide in fear of sin? If Tang Li Du were impartial in enforcing the law, he would definitely keep conclusive evidence, how could he be negligent to the point of allowing key people to commit suicide in fear of crime? To know that the occurrence of a murder is already unfavorable

In his evaluation, not to mention that the suspect is not an ordinary person, Tang Lidu should have thought that Gong Jingyi would definitely not give up, he must make this murder case conclusive, but he was so careless, this is unreasonable. ”

King Zhou looked at Lan Ting.

Lan Ting's head agreed with Chungui's words: "So this murder case is indeed confusing, and now we have very few facts about the case, and the clues are almost none, and we can't determine the truth, too many things need to be verified, I think of the safest way, that is, let's declare our identities and take over the retrial of this murder case in the name of justice." ”

"Then what are you waiting for, let's go to Lin'an County immediately!" King Zhou really stood up from his chair as he spoke.

"Not busy." Lan Ting said: "Before explaining my identity, I still need to make a fuss. ”

——

He also said that Zhang Qian, as the leading rich man in Lin'an County, he acted extremely publicly, under the wife, he had enough to accept nine concubines, and the number of concubines and concubines added up was considerable, Zhang Xundu was his youngest son, and he was very favored by Zhang Qiandu, and since he was a child, he invited a famous teacher to teach Zhang Yundu to learn the scriptures and history, which should also be cultivated on the way to gain fame.

However, it is not without reason that Zhang Yundu can be friendly with Gong Wang.

The two of them are really like things, they are both arrogant characters, they have no intention of taking the exam at all, and they are keen to make friends with celebrities.

In addition to poetry, Zhang Xundu's greatest interest is gardening, and he has also dabbled in cooking, according to legend, he imitated the Tang Dynasty scholars, practiced a good knife work, and often came to the party with a hand of "fish like snow afraid of flying", contributing a delicious food with both color and flavor.

Therefore, even Wei Guanzhi, a famous man in the south of the Yangtze River, actually intersected with Zhang Yundu.

Wei Guanzhi is a person from Jinling, and now he is not in Lin'an, but he has a close friend who happens to be from Lin'an County, since Lan Ting was appointed as the deputy envoy of supervision, he entrusted Wei Guanzhi's book to inform his relatives and friends to facilitate his actions, so when Lan Ting handed over the name card to meet Wei Guanzhi's friend Wei Xuan in Lin'an, Wei Xuan almost greeted him.

"Alas, Deputy Envoy Zhao actually came to Lin'an? Xuan had never heard of it at all! ”

"Private visit, private visit, I hope that Brother Wei can temporarily keep his mouth shut for the court, Brother Wei doesn't have to be polite with the court, you and I are friends, and it is better for both parties to be comfortable."

Although Wei Xuan is known as a celebrity in Lin'an, his family is really not wealthy, he just makes a living from gardening

In the end, he was also impatient with the officialdom entertainment, and when he heard Lan Ting say this, he simply called his arm happy, and sure enough, he no longer called Zhao Deputy Envoy, and he was not commensurate with the words.

Hearing Lan Ting ask about Jing Xuan's murder case, Wei Xuan also knew everything: "I can't hide it, I have heard about this case a long time ago, but I don't believe that Gong Xiaolang is like this...... However, I got acquainted with Xun Du first, and even introduced him to Wei Gong. Xundu's father Zhang Kuang has a bad reputation in Lin'an, but Xundu is not as greedy as his father, and I am really speculative, although he has a liberal temperament in his bones, he is actually very modest, not like Gong Xiaolang...... Arrogant. ”

In Wei Xuan's mouth, Lan Ting also had a more specific impression of Zhang Xundu.

It seems to be a bohemian but well-mannered teenager.

"He loves Jingxuan, this is not a secret, even Gong Xiaolang knows it, once the two of them drank at my house, I also heard them agree with my own ears to 'each by their own charm', I never thought it would be like this! Gong Xiaolang is not only to Jing Xuan, but there are also a lot of scandals, I have a neighbor, the daughter of the family is outstanding, and her temperament is also very pungent, Gong Xiaolang saw it by chance, so he was very attentive to the girl, and then he was shaved by the girl's big ear, and he finally stopped.

Xundu is not like Gong Xiaolang...... Affectionate, he really treats Jing Xuan as a confidant, but what is it, alas, often women like to pester, Jing Xuan is moved by rhetoric, Xun Du is not as good as Gong Xiaolang, but his heart towards Jing Xuan is more sincere. ”

Hearing that Lan Ting wanted him to introduce him to Zhang Xundu, Wei Xuan agreed immediately, and repeatedly promised that he would not directly say Lan Ting's identity, only that Wei Gong and his friends who knew each other came to Lin'an to travel.

The first time I met, Lan Ting used his insights on gardening and cooking, and his talent for poetry, he was like Zhang Yundu at first sight, and even hated to see each other late.

But later, when Lan Ting took the initiative to visit Zhang's house, he was denied!

Zhang Yundu's refusal was very tactful, he did not come forward, and the doorman of the Zhang family directly claimed that "the eleventh master has gone out".

Of course, Lan Ting came to the door knowing that Zhang Xundu did not go out.

Some things seemed to be clear, Lan Ting did not hesitate, and before and after leaving Zhangjiamen, he went directly to Lin'an County.

King Zhou was originally lurking around here, and when he saw Lan Ting appear, he took the lead in breaking into the yamen with his chest straightened.
