Chapter 66: Surfacing

The three of them spoke the same language, and none of them would admit to seeing the murderer's appearance. Gu Changming saw that the remaining cadres in the courtyard were colorless, and the murderer came from outside, not an internal thief. He looked at it, even if the people present knew some leg and foot skills, it was definitely not enough to kill people with short arrows, not to mention condescending, and they needed to be accurate.

A person who looked like a steward came out and saluted Gu Changming and said, "I heard my own son-in-law mention Gu Gongzi's reputation, Gu Gongzi is the son of Master Gu Wuduo of the Former Criminal Division, and he must be black and white, jealous and hateful. My son-in-law was killed at home, and I asked Gu Gongzi to find out the murderer and give the Fang family an explanation. ”

If Gu Changming hadn't heard this, he would have been willing to find out the murderer. Although Fang Yuanyuan's actions and deeds are abhorrent, after all, sin does not lead to death. However, one of the stewards in the house spoke so aggressively that he chose to stand by and watch.

"I happened to come to your son-in-law to discuss something, and some of the people present must have heard his words. I am a civilian, and I can't meddle in such a homicide case, so it is best not to destroy the scene, so that the government can catch the murderer as soon as possible. Gu Changming walked straight out with the little phoenix, "I'm here today, if the government needs a witness, you can come to the Gu Mansion to find me at any time." There is another distinguished guest in your mansion today, Lord Xu Youcang Xu of Guozijian, you can also find him if you have something. ”

Little Phoenix looked at those people's eyes and always followed them, a little unbearable, and felt that Gu Changming's decision was not wrong. Fang Yuanyuan's affairs, no one wants to interfere anymore.

Gu Changming walked outside the door of the Fang family's courtyard, but no one dared to speak out anymore, and there was no one in the huge mansion who could make a sound.

"Let's go back first." Gu Changming didn't even look back.

"What if we're suspicious?" Seeing that he was calm, the little phoenix was a little uncertain in his heart.

"Although we didn't stand at a good angle, we didn't see the true face of the murderer. Could it be that no one really saw it, think about what I told you, the emperor appointed me to investigate Sun Youxiang's case. As soon as Gu Changming's words came out, the little phoenix's eyes lit up.

Even if the Fang family doesn't have a certificate, there is still Dai Mianshan. Since he is a partner with Gu Changming, he must be around him, and this person's hiding skills are also excellent, and the secret guards over the years are not in vain. Gu Changming was in a hurry to leave, presumably to go back to meet him and ask what was going on.

"Moreover, I have a hunch that the person who killed Fang Yuan may be the same group of people who killed Liu Zhiyuan." After Gu Changming initially ruled out Dai Mianshan's involvement in Liu Zhiyuan's murder, he had a spectrum in his heart that the murderer was about to surface. I didn't expect to die in front of me so soon.

As soon as Fang Yuan died, it seemed that the good clues on Sun Youxiang's side were cut off again, but it was not. Since there is a murderer, it can be tracked down, but new clues are revealed.

Gu Changming didn't go home directly, and stopped at the intersection very close to home. The little phoenix was stunned, and in a flash, Dai Mianshan had already appeared, which was almost the same scene as that inexplicable move. She was a little nervous in her heart, and was about to pull out the dagger, but was stopped by Gu Changming's long arm, signaling her to be restless.

"She's trustworthy?" Dai Mianshan coughed and walked over unhurriedly, "You know I'm there too?" ”

"You have already said that you will investigate this case with me. Since I'm going out, there's no reason why you shouldn't go along. Gu Changming smiled slightly, "So the Fang family's personal certificate is not important, what you see is reliable." ”

"And what about her?" Dai Mianshan walked up to him and frowned. What did Gu Changming mean, the emperor's edict only told the two of them that this turn of head should have leaked out. Although the emperor did not say that it must be kept secret, it is a little subtle for people who are outside the matter to participate.

"She's on the same page as me, and I can trust her without any worries." Gu Changming's words dispelled Dai Mianshan's doubts, "I can make it very clear, this case is not something that you and I can solve in a big way, we must have a helper." ”

Dai Mianshan thought of the so-called helpers around him, and when he looked at Little Phoenix more, he suddenly felt that she was pleasing to the eye. This girl has no background, no background, and no officialdom. She only obeyed Gu Changming's orders, and her kung fu was very good, she was indeed a good helper.

"Originally, the fruit could also help, but he is injured, so let's take care of it first." Gu Changming's words were to appease Dai Mianshan, and sure enough, he was very useful when he heard it, and even his face became more relaxed, "Has Mr. Dai seen the murderer?" ”

"See." Dai Mianshan is a very straightforward person, "I chased him out, he slipped faster, and he was very familiar with the layout of Kaifeng City." ”

"Mr. Dai has been in Kaifeng Mansion for many years." Gu Changming hit the nail on the head.

"I go back and forth a lot in the palace, and I don't know much about the alleys and streets of the market. The man was obviously different, and he was just a handful of people in the streets. I'm sure his martial arts skills are not as good as mine, but with that, he got rid of me. Dai Mianshan was very calm about not catching the murderer on the spot, "This is a man in the prime of life, slightly half a head lower than you, and his body shape is about the same." ”

"If I said that he was directly related to Sun Youxiang's case, would Mr. Dai still be so indifferent?" Gu Changming directly saw Dai Mianshan's face change greatly, "I didn't go to see Fang Yuan to ask him why he harmed Dai Guozi, this question was already asked very clearly last time, and there is no need to repeat it." What I want to know is why he knows so much about the Criminal Investigation Department and is so concerned about Sun Youxiang's case. ”

"I also saw someone who came out before Fang Yuan was killed, Lord Xu Youcang Xu of Guozijian." Dai Mianshan knew the civil and military officials of the dynasty very well, "I saw him get into the carriage angrily, and he looked offended." At that time, I thought that I should have been contradicted by your words. ”

"Xu Youcang is Fang Yuanyuan's Shangguan, and it is very problematic for him to come to his subordinates' homes to talk secretly. I remember that he and Wu Wei have also been very close recently, and they are very intimate. Gu Changming gave a clue, "I revealed the same thing to Situ An, maybe he will find something." ”

"Guozijian and the Criminal Department are two places that do not interact with each other for the old and dead. To put it mildly, Xu Youcang of Guozijian never looked down on those people who mentioned the Criminal Division, saying that they were biting people everywhere like mad dogs all day long. So during Ling Zun's tenure, the two did not intersect. Dai Mianshan really showed a strange expression, "You said he was good friends with Wu Wei?" ”

"Is it good to travel in the same car?" Gu Changming threw out a sentence, "Fang Yuanyuan's behavior towards his superiors is also clear from account to account. ”

At that time, it was Fang Yuanyuan who told Dai Guozi that someone would come to Wu Wei and invite people away, and the Criminal Division had a rare gap. Except for the purpose of the vital fruit to lead Dai Mianshan to appear, Fang Yuanyuan's remaining words were all very accurate.

"Do you suspect that those secrets of the Criminal Division were revealed by Xu Youcang?" Dai Mianshan is a smart person, and he can understand it at one point.

"Whether it is Xu Youcang or not, since he appeared on key occasions twice, of course he can't let go of the details." Gu Changming understood that what he could provide to Dai Mianshan was only for the other party to find out, and with his current authority, it was impossible to trigger these people.

"Okay, I'll go check what's going on with Xu Youcang, will you go out again today?" Dai Mianshan asked in detail, "Do you need me to follow along?" ”

"I don't have any plans to go out for the time being, if there is a change, I will still take the phoenix with me." Gu Changming thought for a while, but still said, "Phoenix is a disciple of Qi Kun Sect and a so-called disciple of Qu Jingshan. ”

Dai Mianshan's expression was really interesting, although the little phoenix was reluctant to say this relationship, he appreciated this person's reaction, it seemed that Dai Mianshan knew what kind of existence Qi Kunmen was in front of the emperor. Therefore, he was so surprised to hear that the people of Qi Kunmen would betray the organization and stay by Gu Changming's side.

"No wonder light skills are so good, and it is also Gu Gongzi's ability." Dai Mianshan left this unclear sentence and turned around and left.

The little phoenix didn't understand it, and when she arrived at the door of Gu's house, she couldn't help but ask, "What did he say about your ability?" ”

"The Qi Kunmen in his eyes is very powerful, which is equivalent to a direct order subordinate to the emperor, and sometimes it may not even be as good as the people in the official government. Since you are a disciple of Qu Jingshan, I dug you up to my side and did things willingly, isn't it my ability? Gu Changming suddenly held his breath and looked away.

The little phoenix straightened her back and followed his gaze to see that it was Gu Wuduo who appeared on the highest steps in front of the courtyard gate at some point, looking at the two of them with a solemn gaze. Although she was not afraid of Gu Wuduo at the beginning, after all, she was not a casual person who could talk about it, and Gu Changming was in front of her father, and she was a different faction, and she was difficult to adapt for a while.

"Where have you been again, I said that I should go out less recently, so as not to get into trouble." When Gu Wuduo noticed his son's presence, he naturally reined in the aura around him.

"Go see Fang Yuanyuan of the Guozijian." Gu Changming told bluntly, "He has some disputes with us, and he doesn't want to be shot in his house today." ”

"What did you say?" Although Gu Wuduo didn't know much about Guozijian, it was not a trivial matter that the officials of Guozijian were killed at home, "You didn't stay to help catch the murderer?" ”

"No, he keeps saying that he is an official and I am a citizen, and I think it makes sense." Gu Changming would not give up solving the case because of these trivial things in the past, so Gu Wuduo looked at it again with inquiry in his eyes. It's just a few months, Gu Changming's personality seems to have changed dramatically, who influenced him?

The little phoenix was swept away by Gu Wuduo's gaze, and almost jumped up on the spot, if Gu Changming's gaze was to explore people's hearts, then Gu Wuduo directly poured out his heart and lungs so that people had nothing to hide. She didn't understand what she had done wrong, and she wanted to be investigated like this, so she subconsciously wanted to hide behind Gu Changming.

Unexpectedly, Gu Changming's reaction was faster than her, and he staggered over intentionally or unintentionally, hiding most of her people behind him, which was equivalent to blocking his father's gaze.

The little phoenix secretly breathed a sigh, Gu Changming didn't have eyes behind her, how could she see that she wanted to dodge?

Gu Wuduo naturally turned his back and walked inside: "Come in with me and explain what happened?" ”

Gu Changming would definitely not hide the facts of the case from his father on the surface, and at the moment 1510 said it very clearly, and even remembered Xu Youcang's words word for word: "The steward of the Fang family has reported to the official, and the case will be filed and investigated to the end soon." ”

"You can be considered a suspect and wait." Gu Wuduo was amused and angry when he heard Gu Changming kick through the courtyard door of the Fang family and enter, "Who did you learn these bandits with, and they came in handy at a critical time?" ”
