Chapter 309: Motivation
When Jiang Yanzhi said, Zhang Yan couldn't help but glance at Chen Shiyou.
Chen Shiyou's face darkened, and he stepped forward, he stood there, thin and small, and he didn't speak all the time, "What do the three kings mean, do you mean that I am also one of the murderers?" This morning, I wanted to talk to Zhuo Hang. Cheating is of course wrong, but Zhang Yan has been a classmate with us for many years, and I really can't bear to let him recover. ”
"Because I couldn't stand his pleading, I made a big mistake with a wrong thought. If Zhuo Hang exposes us, Zhang Yan will be kicked out, and I will also leave a stain for helping people cheat, and I will not be able to take the imperial examination in the future. I have been studying hard for many years, although I am not as persistent as Zhang Yan, but I don't want to stop there. ”
"But I really don't know what Zhang Yan is going to do. I admit that I got the poison for him, but that was because Zhang Yan told me that he had found a new job guarding the warehouse, and that there were some roasted meat in it, and that there were weasels to steal it. He asked me to get him some great medicine. I didn't even think that he was used to kill people, and if I knew, I wouldn't have ......."
Chen Shiyou said, choking up.
"Because I know that Zhuo Hang is saying something angry, and he won't be so ruthless to expose us. In the teahouse this morning, his tone had softened a lot. I didn't buy the place on the tree because I didn't really want to see the excitement, but when I came, I saw that the scene was really grand, and I wanted to see it. ”
"You can also see, I was born not tall, and now I can't see below, Zhuo Hang can't stand standing in the tree and can't stand it, so he changed places with me."
"Zhuo Hang treats me unkindly, but I can't treat him unjustly."
Zhang Yan, who was standing on the side, looked anxious, "Shiyou is right, I did everything to kill Zhuo Hang alone." Shiyou is a righteous person, and I didn't mention this matter to him, because he would never kill anyone. I really couldn't get the poison, so I tricked him into getting it for me. ”
"Three kings, if you want to arrest me, arrest me."
Jiang Yanzhi shook his head and glanced at Zhang Yan with disdain, "You are a person, you are stupid, or you are really stupid." Someone sold him and counted the money! ”
"How did Zhuo Hang know about the fraud between the two of you? Did he sit with you during the exam? If you weren't in one place, and there was no list at that time, no one knew about the changes in your grades, so could he pinch it? ”
Zhang Yan's face changed, "He is in the same place as us, but he sits in front of me." ”
"There are weasels in the warehouse, you ask people for poison, ordinary people can get some poisons such as arsenic at most, who will directly give this kind of precious medicine that seals the throat with blood? If it's arsenic, you can sell it at the pharmacy yourself, so why ask for medicine? This kind of lie, do you think Chen Shiyou can't understand it? ”
"You just had a conflict with Zhuo Hang, you asked Chen Shiyou for a powerful poison, but he believed that you were going to poison the weasel, such a clumsy lie, do you believe it?"
"And this tree. There are so many trees at the gate of the Wuguo Mansion, how did you choose this problematic tree, who told you, and who sent Zhuo Hang down this tree?
Zhang Yan looked at Chen Shiyou in disbelief, "It was Chen Shiyou who told me that day that he passed by the gate of the Wuguo Mansion and saw that Dr. Tea, climbing a tree here, wanting to occupy a position in advance, and then sell it for a good price." He told me as a joke, and he also said that at that time, there was also an old man from the Wuguo Mansion, who persuaded him under the tree, saying that the tree had insects and was not fruitful, and told them to come down quickly, so as not to knock down the tree and be unlucky for happy events. ”
"He just said casually that it wasn't just me who was there, there were many other people."
Jiang Yanzhi shook his head, "Now, do you still think he said it casually?" Chen Shiyou, what is Zhuo Hang blocking your way? ”
Chen Shiyou looked at Jiang Yanzhi and smiled, "The three kings said very wonderfully, what can Zhuo Hang stop me?" Do you want to say that because I am the second oldest in ten thousand years, I am jealous that he has always been number one? Then you will look down on me. There is more than one country in the whole world, and there are many powerful people, and the leader here is nothing when he is put in the spring. ”
"In the imperial examination, my competitor is not only Zhuo Hang, I got rid of him, and he is not the first, so what's the use? What's more, who can say that when the time comes, I will still lose to him? The three kings, I have no motive to kill him, so your reasoning, with no motive and no evidence, cannot be established. ”
"Even if Zhang Yan corrects me, that doesn't hold, after all, before the three kings induced him, he always believed that I was innocent."
Jiang Yanzhi looked at Chen Shiyou's shining eyes, a little inexplicable.
The people of Kaifeng Mansion, it has become more and more difficult to understand recently, why are you still so happy when you are suspected of being a murderer?
"Those who are behind in the test must kill those who are in front. I don't think there's a reason for that. Why don't you have a motive, of course you have a motive, if Zhuo Hang reports you, then your career path is almost cut off, after all, you have a bad reputation for cheating. ”
Chen Shiyou shook his head, "No." He won't. I already knew this, I don't believe you asked Xu Hanling. Zhuo Hang said it himself. ”
Xu Hanling nodded.
Zhang Yan on the side looked at him in disbelief, "Chen Shiyou, Zhuo Hang told you, why didn't you tell me?" ”
Chen Shiyou glanced at him lightly, and said apologetically, "I thought he also told you, but you didn't believe it, so I kept persuading you two to make peace, didn't I still tell you, Zhuo Hang was soft-hearted, and what he said was a momentary anger, and he wouldn't expose us." This morning, at the teahouse, I see you're doing well. ”
Zhang Yan held his head and squatted down, Zhuo Hang's body was at his feet.
He muttered, "I don't know, I don't know." ”
Jiang Yanzhi sighed, "Isn't it fun to play with fire?" Be careful to burn yourself. ”
Chen Shiyou looked at Jiang Yanzhi's eyes and said with a smile: "I originally wanted to go to Dali Temple and be a subordinate of the three kings." It's a pity that the cheating thing is known, and I probably can't go. ”
"You're doing this to see how I try the case? What exactly is your purpose? ”
Chen Shiyou shook his head, "Don't be nervous about the three kings, I have always admired you, that book "The Three Kings Wash Their Grievances", I simply memorized it backwards. One of my favorites is the case of the black cat, which is very interesting. What do you say about the three kings? ”
Jiang Yan's heart froze, "Do you know Zhao Li?" ”
Chen Shiyou raised his eyebrows in surprise, "I've only seen it in books, but I haven't seen real people, so how can I talk about knowing each other?" Zhao Li you are talking about, is it a cat? Or people? ”
Jiang Yanzhi looked into his eyes and said again, "You know Zhao Li." ”
Chen Shiyou didn't answer, "Three kings, now that the case has been settled, can I bring my poor friend back?" Will he be laid to rest? ”
