12. Two copper coins
Brother Lian said: "The murderer is not weak, and he came from the wall. After speaking, he turned around and saw that Ye Yanshan had been in the house since he entered the private room, and he looked carefully in the house, looking up and down the ground as if he was looking for something.
"What are you looking for?" asked Lian Di.
"The mark, the murderer's appearance, reminds me of a man. ”
"Who?"
"According to my father's work miscellaneous records, there was a chivalrous man in the previous dynasty, who was tall and strong, and his weapon was a small short sword, who claimed to kill the rich and help the poor, and to pray for the heavens and the people. ”
Brother Lian couldn't help twitching the corners of his mouth when he heard this, "He can't be, he likes to leave a plum blossom at the scene of the crime, right?"
"No," Ye said, "he will leave two copper coins at the scene." ”
Guan Tongsheng said: "There are no copper coins in this house, I have just seen it." ”
Ye Yanshan walked to the low table with his feet facing the sky, squatted down and turned the low table 90 degrees to reveal the ground that had been covered before, his face was suddenly stunned, he reached under the table, and when he raised his hand again, he pinched two copper coins between his fingers.
Brother Lian and Guan Tongsheng were also stunned, Brother Lian reached out and took two copper coins, which were coins made during the reign of Emperor Qilong, which did not seem to flow through the market much, and looked very clean and new.
"It's been 50 years since the previous dynasty, and if that chivalrous man is still alive, he is already seventy or eighty, and he can still fly the eaves and walk the wall? Can he jump directly from the second floor? I don't believe that there is such an old and strong person. Brother Lian shook his head in denial.
Ye Yanshan said: "It is not excluded that he is the descendant of the chivalrous man or the person who imitates him." ”
"Then there is a record in your father's miscellaneous records, what is the standard for this chivalrous man to kill?
"Of course not, since he was called a hero, the person who was killed must be a traitor, a traitor, a corrupt person. ”
Guan Tongsheng pointed to the blood on the ground and said, "How much treachery and corruption can he be as a retainer?"
Ye Yanshan shook his head and said, "I don't know about this." ”
Brother Lian said coldly: "The retainers of the minister of power are far from the retainers of other families." ”
After inspecting the scene, the three of them walked out of the Hongxing Building, and Brother Lian said to Guan Tongsheng: "I've seen it all, let them reopen." ”
When Lao Ma heard it, he nodded yes, and turned to Xinggu and the others to lift the ban.
The three of them walked slowly all the way, and as soon as they arrived at the entrance of Zhuyun Alley, the Qingluo girl who was looking for Yunxuan chased after her and greeted: "Guan Gongzi, Lian Gongzi, since you have arrived at the door today, why don't you come in and sit down." ”
The two are frequent visitors to Xunyunxuan, although Qingluo is not the most popular girl in Xunyunxuan, but her little song is Guan Tongsheng's favorite. Guan Tongsheng was about to refuse, but Brother Lian grabbed him and said: "Since it is the invitation of Miss Qingluo, how can you live up to the beauty's wishes, Brother Ye has been tired from following us for a day, listen to a song, relax and relax, and solve the dinner by the way." ”
"That's very good, Brother Ye, please," Guan Tongsheng pulled Ye Lingshan into Xunyunxuan with Qingluo, "Brother Ye must have never heard Qingluo sing, it's really beautiful." ”
Even his younger brother glanced at Guan Xueshen, this guy has a big heart, Ye Chengshan knows that he is reluctant, and he doesn't want to be stared at by Zuo Xiang during the investigation of the case, and he can still say that he will listen to Qu'er? She was so angry that she gritted her teeth and hated herself for making friends carelessly.
Entering a private room, Qingluo went to Zhang Luo to eat, and the little maid in the building came in and put down the tea, asked a few people to wait, and then closed the door and went out.
Brother Lian glared at Guan Tongshan, "No matter how good Qingluo's little song is, I have to endure it tonight." ”
"Oh, why?"
She was so angry that she wanted to pat him on the head again, but when she thought that Ye Lishan was beside her, she couldn't help but didn't raise her hand, but Xiao Ye's classmate was really good, and he replied: "Prime Minister Zuo must have sent someone to secretly stare at the adult to investigate the case." ”
Guan Tong was dumbfounded, he looked at Brother Lian and said aggrievedly: "Obviously you said you wanted to come in." ”
"Did I say I came in to listen to the music?" she gave him a big roll of her eyes and asked, "I found it so far today, and you can tell me the results." ”
"Uh...... Zhang Mao was killed by a former dynasty hero, how can this be checked? The heroes are all elusive. ”
Knowing that he couldn't be counted on, Lian Di knocked on the table and said: "Motive, whether he is a hero or not, there is a motive for killing." There were footprints on the roof where he stayed, and he stayed on them for not a while, so it can be seen that it was not a murder of passion. This is a premeditated murder, and his goal is very clear, that is, Zhang Mao. ”
"Oh," Guan Tongsheng nodded, "I understand, why did he kill Zhang Mao?"
"This is what we have to find out next, assuming that Brother Ye's guess is right, the murderer is the copper coin hero, and the targets of his murder are all traitors and corrupt people, then find out what evil Zhang Mao has done, you can know why the hero killed him, and it is possible to find the copper coin hero. ”
"Yes, Zhang Mao is Zuo Xiang's retainer, and I don't know if what he did will have anything to do with Zuo Xiang. Guan Tongsheng finally found out that this matter was a bit tricky.
"Whether it's closed or not, you have to check it now, otherwise you won't be able to explain it to the emperor. ”
Guan Tongsheng scratched his head in annoyance, and finally understood that Lord Wang was worthy of being an old fritter in officialdom, and he pretended to be sick and found him to be a substitute for the dead ghost in the morning.
"Don't bother, check it carefully," Brother Lian said: "The evil things Zhang Mao did are related to Wu. ”
"Five?"
"Yes, the five knives are not indiscriminately chopped, they represent a certain meaning. ”
