Chapter 576: Who is the Dead?
Under the old locust tree in Changtang County, a corpse was dug up.
He Zhichun and Cui Jiu glanced at each other, and no longer hidden, walked over, and when they saw them passing, Yuan Kui and the others also walked out from behind the ancestral hall and came to escort them.
Cui Jiu walked straight into the crowd, glanced at the group of people who were beaten with blue noses and swollen faces, and called, "Seventh brother." ”
Cui Qi's pupils shrank, and he was about to make a big salute, but he was stopped by He Zhichun with his eyes, "Ninth brother, nine ...... Nine brothers and sisters. ”
He Zhichun waved his hand, and Yuan Kui and the others immediately stepped forward and tied up Cui Qiyi and his party.
Cui Qi cried bitterly, "Ninth brother and ninth brother, take a look, is that corpse the eighth brother?" ”
Cui Jiu was stunned for a moment, turned his head and saw that although the corpse was already a little swollen, how could he not recognize it, this was Cui Ba.
So, Cui Ba died, and Cui Qi received a tip report and came to dig up his body?
There is something strange about this.
He Zhichun had countless questions in her heart, she looked at Cui Jiu, patted his hand, and Cui Jiu nodded.
The village was already brightly lit.
The torches lit up everyone's face.
"If someone buried a body here, the soil under the tree should be pine...... You didn't notice when you came? He Zhichun said, looking at Yuan Kui.
Without waiting for Yuan Kui to answer, the lame man guarding the ancestral hall replied: "This old locust tree has been eaten by insects, so I turned over the soil two days ago and got some earthwork to kill insects......
The soil under this pine tree has recently been turned over, so even if someone buries a body here, it will not attract attention.
So when was Cui Ba buried here?
He Zhichun glanced at the lame man and inhaled it with his nose, and there was still a smell of wine on his body.
"How did your leg get lame?"
The cripple doesn't speak.
An aunt in the village rolled her eyes, "What are you hiding and covering?" Who in this village doesn't know that you went to gamble, owed debts, and were crippled. Oh, you didn't kill someone, bury yourself under this tree. You say you've quit gambling, but who knows? That is, the patriarch believes in you, so he asks you to guard the ancestral hall. ”
Gamblers are vicious.
He Zhichun was surprised, "How can you see that the old locust tree has worms?" ”
When the cripple heard this, he trembled with fright and stammered, "Yes, this person told me...... What he said, what he said. ”
The lame man said, pointing to Cui Ba, who was lying on the ground and staring.
"Take them all back to Chang'an City, hand them over to Dali Temple, and let Sun Fu judge them."
He Zhichun frowned, there are many contradictions in this case, the strangest of which is when and how did the murderer bury Cui Ba's body under the big tree?
There is no treasure under the big locust tree at all, and it has only been four days since He Zhichun staged the bloody incident of Xuanwu Gate.
It is not uncommon for a lame man to put medicine on the loose soil of the old tree, but if someone buries the body here, it should not be unaware.
He Zhichun thought about it and glanced at Yuan Kui deeply.
There are too many things in this, He Zhichun doesn't want the villagers to know, and the villagers are not people who have no eyesight, Yuan Kui and his party, real swords and guns, all of them are mighty and majestic military masters, and when I think about it, something big has happened here that I can't provoke.
Many people looked at the cripple sympathetically, pitiful, mixed into such a big event, it was going to die at first glance!
After He Zhichun finished speaking, Yuan Kui and the others escorted everyone and the lame man back to Chang'an City.
……
Sun Fu sat at home and looked at the sky, although over the years, he also had a larger mansion for the blessing of the Li family's father and daughter, but he really couldn't stand the many people in the family!
Of the eight sons, six of whom have already married daughters-in-law, each of whom has given birth to grandchildren, is like a monkey......
Every day in his mansion, there is this kind of noisy sound, which is even more terrifying than that of West City.
He was thinking about it, but he heard a clang, and something was smashed.
Sun Fu cupped his chest, "Madam, why don't we split up quickly...... I can't afford to enjoy this child and grandchild...... Whoever gives birth to a granddaughter will leave the wealth to whomever he wants......"
Mrs. Sun glared at him, "If you don't cultivate the old man, and the family business is not given to the eldest son, do you want the family house to be restless?" When I don't want to break up? Who told your son to be filial, everyone said that their parents are alive and well, and they must not be separated......"
Sun Fu wants to cry without tears, please don't be filial to me, can't I be filial to you?
It's just that he wants to die, if he is like Wang Wenlin and Zhang Yanzuo, and lives in Dali Temple at night, is it too late?
In fact, he had already tried, but every time he lived in Dali Temple, he would definitely die that night, and after living once or twice, he didn't dare to live.
Sun Fu scratched his head and heard the door thump.
Mrs. Sun was taken aback, "It's all curfew, who's going to knock on the door?" We didn't offend Jin Wuwei! ”
As soon as the leather monkeys of the Sun family heard the movement, they all ran out of the house and crowded to the gate, and the housekeeper opened the door tremblingly, "Ladies and gentlemen, it's late at night, don't go out......"
Yuan Kui, who was standing at the door, was so frightened that he took a few steps back, "Where did Lord Sun bring these boys from...... Good fellow, it turns out that you have such an ulterior secret, children, don't be afraid, Uncle will send you home......"
Sun Fu was full of black lines, "Bah, bah, they are all grandsons of so-and-so." ”
Yuan Kui's big mouth couldn't be closed, and he sympathized with Sun Fu with 120,000 points.
"Your Majesty is waiting for you, you have caught someone, but there are some problems."
Sun Fu's heart sank, "So-and-so is coming." ”
His Majesty is really his great benefactor, if it weren't for the curfew in Chang'an City, he would have preferred to wander the streets rather than see those bunch of bear children at home, why can't he give birth to a daughter, even his son, can't give birth to a daughter?
How many sins he did in his previous life!
Yuan Kui got into the carriage with Sun Fu and retold the case again.
Sun Fu touched his beard, and for a while, he didn't have a clue.
Judging from the current situation, is the dead Cui Ba that person, or the living Cui Qi?
Or, either of them is not, but just a backstabber who was sent over.
As soon as Sun Fu entered the door of Dali Temple, he saw Cui Jiutong He Zhichun wearing peasant clothes, "Your Majesty, which one are you singing!" ”
He Zhichun stuffed a grape into his mouth, "Doctor Sun, sit down and drink some tea first, Zhang Yanzuo is still performing an autopsy on Cui Ba to see when he died and why?" ”
Sun Fu looked at He Zhichun's calm appearance, "Your Majesty, doesn't you already know who the murderer is?" ”
He Zhichun ate another grape, "I don't know, but Doctor Sun, I'll know soon, right?" ”
Sun Fu secretly rolled his eyes in his heart, why do you think, you want to come to watch the show with melon seeds?
