Chapter 176: Disgruntled

It is no wonder that Cao asked the Cultivator that there was something strange, and even Cui Changling frowned when he heard this, and he didn't know what he was pondering.

A good person, went to Zhuangzi on the outskirts of Beijing, returned home and fell unconscious, but the doctor said that the pulse was fine, but nothing happened overnight, as for the next morning, he didn't mention it in one breath, and died?

"Since you detained the doctor in the house, didn't you ask to take a pulse check when Erlangjun had a seizure in the morning?" Cui Changling asked in a cold voice.

Cao Wenxiu choked up and replied: "Xia Guan really doesn't know what to say...... The total effort was only halfway through the tea, and suddenly he went crazy, and then he foamed at the mouth, and he couldn't wait for the doctor to prescribe medicine, and he was already ...... Man is already ......"

He said with red eyes, thinking that the death of his youngest son was too tragic, which really made this middleman who was over forty years old a little unbearable.

Cui Changling saw that there were tears in his eyes, and he didn't want to blame, but he heard a few places in his words: "Erlangjun foamed at the mouth before he died? He asked, turning his face to look at Cao Qibin, "Lord Cao said, I can't wait to prescribe medicine, that is, to take the pulse?" ”

Cao Qibin said yes, and felt that Cui Changling was really careful: "But it's also a strange place, after checking the pulse, they still said that they couldn't find out the cause of the disease, people were like that, and they were frightened outside when they opened their mouths, and the pulse was very stable." ”

After all, it was his own brother who died, and when he said this, Cao Qibin couldn't help but grit his teeth a little: "They are all foolish quacks, people with stable pulses, how can they foam at the mouth like that, just for a moment, and people swallow their breath." ”

Yes, it's weird, unheard of.

But a few doctors asked for a pulse...... If you want to say that one or two are foolish quacks, it is not necessarily that the doctors in this Jiankang City are all quacks who mislead people, right?

According to the current situation, Cao Wenxiu is very fond of his youngest son, and he is unconscious for a while, he wants to invite a doctor, it must be a famous doctor in Jiankang City, Rao is so, no one has found out why Cao Qirui is here.

Cui Changling nodded the handrail: "The little guy who followed Erlangjun to Zhuangzi, where is it now?" ”

Cao Wenxiu tried hard to calm his emotions, wiped a handful of tears with his cuffs, and said that it was in the house, and someone was taking care of it.

"Lord Cao, why did you ask Erlangjun to check on the accounts of Zhuangzi in the suburbs of Beijing last month?"

Wang Xian was a little surprised when he heard him ask this, and looked sideways.

How can this be a sentence in the east and a sentence in the west?

asked where the servant was, and she thought that this was going to call someone to bring her up, and asked Cao Qirui what people he had seen and what he had eaten in Zhuangzi.

But why did the conversation change and ask about the account again?

And Cao Wenxiu was obviously similar to what she thought, and was stunned for a moment before replying to him: "That account had a problem at the end of last month, but the steward took leave, so it was delayed again and again, and it dragged on for more than half a month, he recovered and returned to Zhuangzi, and the lower official asked Erlang to go yesterday." ”

The corners of Cui Changling's mouth raised almost invisibly: "This person in charge, I think it is the slave of the Cao Mansion, and it is about Lord Cao who brought it all the way to Jiankang from Juye?" ”

Cao Wenxiu came back very quickly this time, and said no.

Cui Changling's face immediately changed: "Since he is not a slave born in the family, Lord Cao is very lenient with the slaves below." The account he managed was wrong, the account was not cleared, and he took leave due to illness for more than half a month, so Lord Cao didn't care? ”

Maybe Cui Changling's momentum was too strong, or maybe it was too hot and dry this day, and Cao Wenxiu's back was about to get soaked.

Cao Qibin interjected next to him and replied for him: "Although he is not a slave in the family, Zhao Jie is a person brought by his younger brother and sister from his mother's family, and he is the master of her nursing mother. ”

Cao Qirui's wife's maiden family?

Cui Changling was silent, and he didn't ask anything more for a long time, until he stood up and walked out, no one knew what was going on in his heart.

Wang Xian followed him out, and the father and son of the Cao family couldn't sit still, besides, Cao asked Xiujue, he didn't ask anything at all, he didn't even take a look at Cao Qirui's room, so he was leaving?

Unexpectedly, as soon as Cui Changling stepped out of the room, he stood still again, and turned around to look at his father and son: "Right now, I just want to ask about the inside story here, as for the interrogation, there will be a servant from the Tingwei Mansion to pass on the little guy next to Erlangjun, as well as that Zhao Jie." Lord Cao, you don't have to send it. ”

……

Wang Xian followed Cui Changling out for a long distance, but when she looked up, his face was still not good, and she felt uncomfortable in her heart: "Master, did Master Cao say something wrong?" When you came out of the Cao family, your face was ugly all the time. ”

Cui Changling looked down at her: "It's not that Cao Wenxiu said the wrong thing, but don't you think?" Zhao is just an outsider to the Cao family, so why should he be asked to manage the accounts on the Zhuangzi? ”

"Perhaps...... Maybe Cao Erlangjun has a good relationship with his wife, looking at the appearance of Lord Cao, Cao Erlangjun should have been very favored during his lifetime, isn't it normal for the pillow to blow in the wind? ”

Cui Changling still didn't have a smile on his face: "What about Cao Qibin?" ”

"Huh?" Wang Xian didn't know what to do, "What does it have to do with him?" ”

Cui Changling stopped talking, stared at her directly, and spoke for a long time: "Think again?" ”

Again...... Think about it?

Wang Xian's little head drooped, but he didn't complain about his trickery, probably this was an experience for her, so he thought about it very seriously.

Cao Wenxiu is really pathetic, so that the rules are wrong, and he has lost his words several times, and even, in front of Cui Changling, he choked up and red-eyed, and almost couldn't reply, this sadness is revealed from the heart, and he can't fake it.

But what about Cao Qibin?

Wang Xian raised his head suddenly: "The eldest Langjun of the Cao family, it seems that he is not sad or happy about the death of his younger brother." He...... He was so calm that he could even pick up when Master Cao was out of order and couldn't reply. ”

She said as she touched her nose with her backhand: "And the master told me to think about it again, it's nothing more than that Zhao Jie has a problem managing Zhuangzi's accounts, which means that Cao Dalangjun should be very dissatisfied with this, right?" ”

Cui Changling's eyes flashed with relief, and he raised his hand and rubbed her head again: "Cao Qibin is the eldest and the son of the Cao family in Juye, and everything about the Cao family in the future will be decided by him, but their Zhuangzi in the suburbs of Beijing is now handed over to an outsider, this outsider has such a relationship with Cao Qirui, do you think, can he be satisfied?" ”

Chapter 177

No.

Of course not.

No matter how much you favor your young son, it won't come to such a point, where will Cao Qibin put his face? And this Cao Erlangjun is too ignorant, according to what Cao Wenxiu said, Zhao Jie was originally recommended by Cao Qirui to Zhuangzi to manage the accounts.

Wang Xian scratched the back of his head: "Master is trying to say that the eldest Langjun of the Cao family has a motive to kill?" ”

Cui Changling said that he could say the same, but after changing the conversation, he said to her again: "You can easily imagine that Cao Qibin can be so confused?" ”

She said yes, but she didn't quite understand: "What does the master want to say when he says this?" Is there a problem with the Cao family? In fact, Cao Erlangjun's death is strange, but I always feel that it must be the Cao family's own doing, after all, how can outsiders know his whereabouts so easily, and how can they know that there is a problem with the accounts on their Zhuangzi? ”

"Is it the Cao family who did it themselves, let's not make this conclusion for the time being, but there is one point, you also said that Cao Qirui's recommendation of Zhao Jie's move will cause his brother's dissatisfaction, as far as I know, Cao Qirui is not a well-known gentleman, but a master who is kind to others, how can he be so disproportionate and embarrass his brother?"

Cui Changling walked very slowly with her, as if he was deliberately pressing her steps.

His tone when he spoke was also gentle and soft, just like the breeze coming slowly, and the water was not rippling, making people feel comfortable.

Wang Xian was still meditating, and he picked up the words in front of him and added a few words: "Do you know that Cao Qirui's son and daughter were all born to his concubine?" ”

Wang Xian was surprised, and said in his heart how did I know about other people's family affairs, and at the same time I felt incredible.

No one has a reason to take a concubine first, Cao Qirui's wife entered the door, and the Cao family in Juye is not a family with no name or surname, so it is impossible for the wife to take a concubine as soon as she enters the door, not to mention that it takes a year and a half to accept a concubine.

But how come it is that Cao Qirui has a son and a daughter under his knees, all born to this concubine, and he is the head wife, but he has no children under his knees?

"He spoiled his concubine and killed his wife?"

Cui Changling knew that several Langjun of the Wang family did not accept concubines, so he was surprised that she knew such words, and his smiling eyes were as bright as stars, and the longer he stared at her, the stronger the smile became: "Do you still know this?" ”

Wang Xian also looked at the drama from the text, and she secretly read those books that were not in the eyes of outsiders, so Cui Changling inexplicably mentioned the issue of Cao Qirui's heirs for a while, and she thought of the matter of spoiling concubines and killing wives.

Just asked him to joke, and she was embarrassed again.

After Cui Changling joked for a sentence or two, he didn't force her too tightly, and cleared his throat: "I can't talk about it, if it is really a favorite concubine and a wife, he will not recommend Zhao Jie to take care of Zhuangzi's account in front of Cao Wenxiu." But you said, if he favors the concubine room in the inner house, Cao Wenxiu and his wife can't control the affairs of the children's boudoir, so if he promotes Zhao Jie to an outsider, can it be regarded as compensation for Cao Li's family? ”

When she heard about the Cao Li family, she suddenly remembered a family, and when she looked up at Cui Changling, her eyes lit up: "Cao Erlangjun's wife, is she the wife of the Li family in Longxi?" ”

He nodded and said, "Speaking of which, it can be regarded as the Cao family's high climb." ”

Of course, it's a high climb.

But in the end, the wife who was born in the Li family did not have a son and a half daughter, but asked a concubine who entered the door late to give birth to a son and a daughter, wouldn't it have lost all the face of her Li family in Longxi?

If this is the case, then Cao Wenxiu favors his youngest son, and secondly, in order to make the Li family in Longxi look better, he let Zhao Jie go to Zhuangzi to take care of things, which makes sense.

There were four words suddenly open on her face, and Cui Changling knew that she didn't need to mention it more, and she almost understood the truth that she should understand.

So he raised his hand and rubbed her again: "Go back to the Tingwei Mansion and see if Xu Du finds anything in the corpse, and when it is night, we will visit Cao's house at night." ”

"Visiting Cao's house at night?" She was not surprised at all, but was full of excitement, "Let's see if this Mrs. Li's behavior is grotesque?" ”

"Count your cleverness." He looked doting, but he didn't say much, and he went into the night horizontally, and after visiting Cao's house, he could see the difference.

……

And the first thing Cui Changling did when he led Wang Xian back to the Tingwei Mansion was to give an order, calling the main house of the Cao family and the Zhuangzi on the outskirts of Beijing, but they respectively passed Cao Qirui's little servant and Zhao Jie to the mansion, but he specially explained that he took someone, did not go to the hall and did not ask questions, and threw them into the prison to dry first, just don't slack off, if someone comes to visit, they are all allowed to see, but who comes, when they meet, and how long they have met, they must come back one by one.

Wang Xian followed behind him, listened to him arrange them one by one, and when his words fell, she raised her voice and asked, "Master, is you waiting for Mrs. Li to send someone to see Zhao Jie?" ”

Cui Changling blindly smiled and didn't speak, swept around, and didn't see Chen Quan's figure at all: "Look, the errand outside hasn't been done yet, leading you back to the mansion, and you have to intrigue with these people." ”

When he said this, the eagerness on Wang Xian's little face dimmed: "The adult is probably accompanying Xu Du to perform the autopsy." ”

Cui Changling knew that Chen Quan's temper was impossible to honestly accompany Xu Du to the autopsy, and when he learned that he returned to the mansion but did not show up, he was not convinced, and he dared to be angry and dare not speak, this is a hanging face.

"Let's go, I'll take you to ......"

He originally wanted to say that I will lead you to Chen Quan, but before he finished speaking, Xu Du walked in from the door slowly with his hands behind his back.

As soon as Cui Changling saw him coming, his voice stopped, and he almost invisibly raised his eyebrows: "Why are you here?" What about Chen Quan? ”

Xu Du bowed to him, and his speech was still slow, but his words were really unpleasant: "This errand was made Jun look down on me and let me enter the Tingwei Mansion, and I don't know if I have done a bad job over the years, or how I offended Lord Chen." Ling Jun came here today, the adults had no evidence, if it was Ling Jun who I invited to Shangshutai, he couldn't hold me, so he shook his face in annoyance. ”

He didn't stand close, and he didn't move much when he entered the door, so he bowed from afar: "When Ling Jun was here, someone was still allowed to examine the body with me, and I was allowed to follow my rules, but now Lord Chen said that this rule will have to be changed in the future, and Ling Jun indulges me, but he is not used to my stinky problem." Ling Jun, the deceased is the greatest, I want to examine the body, and I have to disembowel and disembowel my belly in some cases, which is already very disrespectful, do you want me to tell you in detail how people died tragically? I was in awe of it, and although I dared to examine it, I would never dare to speak to outsiders.
