Chapter 724: Opening

At this time, Du Tanzhi was on an errand abroad, and Gu Yanzhang was busy sorting out the things before and after because of Chen Ducai's case, and he was waiting to find out before and after he submitted it to the Criminal Department for consideration.

Ji Qingling thought about it, so she simply picked up the matter by herself and sorted out the clues before and after Li Chengwei.

She gathered together the things that Rosin Xiang had inquired about from Baokangmen and Junyiqiao Street, and went to Quanzhou to find out, and she only felt that it was very tricky.

Li Chengwei's adoptive mother has been dead for a long time, the former relatives and friends in the family are difficult to find, and the old servants who once served are also dead and scattered.

Li Chengwei's original partner also died for a long time, and in the eyes of outsiders, she died of natural illness.

According to the law of the Great Jin Dynasty, if there is an unnatural death, the government will send a door-to-door autopsy to record the relevant inspections one by one. However, the law is one thing, the actual operation is another, Kyoto Prefecture is so big, there are more than one million people, and there are countless people who fall ill and die every day, but the work is extremely limited, generally speaking, no matter which family has died, as long as there is no special strange feeling when reporting to the yamen, and no one is informant, and the yamen will not come to the door to inspect the documents signed by Li Zheng.

The Li family was already wealthy at that time, as long as there were no obvious traces on the corpse, whether they wanted to hide it from Li Zheng or buy off Li Zheng, it was actually not difficult, because the records in the file could not be used as evidence of his normal death.

Li Chengwei's eldest daughter also died of illness in Quanzhou, and after her death, the servants who served around her either sold them on the spot or found a way out on their own, and the only son, who was still young, died of his injuries last month.

In this way, it is difficult to find all the people who may know, the Li family is a rich and noble family, and the number of people waiting around them is tens, and it is not easy to find the one who really knows the inside story and is willing to speak.

Ji Qingling wrote down all the clues on the paper one by one and thought carefully for a long time.

Qiu Yue was originally sitting on the side to read the accounts, but when she saw Ji Qingling looking at the copied scrolls and the information sorted out by Rosin, she simply stood up, walked to the side, and whispered: "Madam, why don't you send someone to Quanzhou again to see if you can find anything from that one steward?" ”

It turned out that Rosin Xiang said last time that when Li Chengwei and his original daughter married to Quanzhou, he took a steward of the Li family with him, whose surname was Chen, and he originally led all the industries and shops.

Rosin heard these news at that time, but she didn't dare to study it carefully for fear of startling the snake, and because of the limited time, she had to come back first.

According to Qiu Yue's thoughts, the steward's surname is Chen, and the person to whom the property under Xiao Li's name was sold is also surnamed Chen, and his name is Chen Xunchen, who is from Huai County, Yingzhou, and Li Chengwei's adoptive father, Li's father, is also surnamed Chen before his father, and he is precisely from Huai County, Yingzhou.

Such a coincidence, if there is nothing strange in it, it is really unlikely.

She paused, and then replied: "As long as you listen to the clues from the steward surnamed Chen, and then turn around and touch the melon, you should know what the relationship between Li Chengwei and Chen Xunchen, who received the dowry of Mrs. Xiao Li." ”

Ji Qingling shook his head and said: "Quanzhou is far away, once you go back, you still have to investigate, it is to speed up, not to mention that it will take two months to have results, and besides, you may not be able to find out anything." ”

Regardless of whether the steward surnamed Chen is Li Chengwei's confidant or someone from the Chen family, he has been operating in Quanzhou for many years, how can he send a stranger from the capital to ask what clues from the local area?

Besides, if her speculation is not wrong, nine times out of ten, Liu Muhe's convulsion this time, Li Chengwei's handwriting is indispensable, he acted in such a hurry and anxiously, he didn't even care about cleaning up the beginning and the end, I was afraid that there was some reason why he would be in such a hurry, this time he fell short, and he didn't know what means he would use in the future, if he waited to send someone to Quanzhou, it would take too long, and he really couldn't wait.

Hearing Ji Qingling say this, Qiu Yue suddenly sighed and said: "This surnamed Li's actions are too vicious, everyone is dead, and none of the insiders are there, even if they want to ask people, there is no one to ask, it is really confusing...... Can he only wait for himself to show his feet? ”

Ji Qingling looked at the pages written in front of him, thoughtfully, and after a while, he suddenly raised his head and said, "Not necessarily...... Although there are no insiders, even if they are, they may not be able to ask, but there are two people, and now they are in the capital, but they will definitely not hide it, and they will never lie...... I just want them to 'speak', and it takes a little effort. ”

Qiu Yue was stunned when she heard this, and asked, "What is that?" ”

She looked at Ji Qingling with a puzzled expression.

Ji Qingling sighed slightly and said, "If it is not a last resort, it is best not to disturb the people......

Or, it can no longer be called human.

***

Not to mention that Ji Qingling made up his mind and began to try to investigate the strange affairs of Li Chengwei's family, but in the vertical arch hall, Zhao Rui sat behind the imperial case, frowning and reviewing the chapters.

This year, Gyeonggi has a rainy summer, and it is only in June, and there are urgent reports from several places, saying that the river water along the Yellow River is soaring, and there is a danger of danger.

The water transportation in the city of Kyoto is convenient, the Bianhe River, the Jinshui River, the Wuzhang River, the Cai River intersect, although it is very convenient, but once the water rises, it is also a headache, as long as it encounters heavy rain one after another, the city of Kyoto almost has to encounter floods, hundreds of thousands of soldiers, millions of Li people, lives, property are all possible to be in danger.

Just Zhao Rui reigned for many years, several water systems in Kyoto City have been diverted several times, but they are all headache doctors, foot pain doctors, every year this year to repair the embankment of the east gate, next year the west gate of the Bianhe River will have an accident, changed the south gate of the Cai River ditch, the north gate of the Wuzhang River will be a demon, he has been thinking about the year, and so on to this year after the autumn flood, take the opportunity to call the Ministry of Industry to measure the relevant river situation, so as to build water conservancy, to complete the battle, but he really encountered too many hardships this year, a while ago was very decadent, then the matter was shelved.

It's easy for Zhao Rui to regain his strength, the political affairs have already piled up, naturally he didn't have time to take the time to take care of this place is not so anxious, who would have expected to see that it will be August, the rain will be heavier than a day, and occasionally a few days will be clear, and it won't be long before the water level is just low, and it is a continuous heavy rain, and the flood is rising again.
