Chapter 89: The Truth of the Case

After walking for a long time, his mouth was already dry, and looking at a small tea shop in front of him from a distance, Su Tang'an said, "Let's rest in front of us before we hurry." ”

"Good. Gu Tingjun said, "You wait for me in front, I'll come later." ”

Su Tang'an arrived at the front of the tea shop, got off the horse, tied the reins of the horse, let the boss serve two bowls of tea, and waited for Gu Tingjun while drinking, thinking that it was convenient for him to go, so he didn't think much about it.

At this time, three pedestrians who were in a hurry also came to the tea shop to let the boss serve tea, drank 20,000 tea, and took advantage of the rest to gossip.

"Have you heard about the Yu family?" said one person, "There are more than a dozen people in the family, and the fire is burned clean. ”

"What was burned by the fire, I don't know the inside story when I look at you!" The other person held the conversation and said proudly, "The Yu family has been wiped out! It's pitiful, more than a dozen people, even the children are not spared!"

"Who is so ruthless that he wants to kill his whole family?"

"This ...... I told you, can't you tell anyone!" The man lowered his voice and said, "I have a relative who is a government official in Dushan County, Qingzhou, and I went to their house to visit my relatives a few days ago, and I talked about it. The Yu family has a daughter, sixteen years old, who is as beautiful as a flower, or how to call it a red face and trouble, that Miss Yu found trouble! The Yu family only knew that this young lady was slighted, and they didn't know the identity of the son, so in order to rescue their own young lady, they beat the son. ”

He took a sip of tea and continued: "This fight went wrong, that son sneaked into Yu's house that night and gave that Miss Yu *, and that Miss Yu committed suicide in a fit of anger. How the Yu family was willing to take him to see the official, this son showed his identity to no avail, in order to protect his reputation, he simply did not do anything, ordered someone to kill the old and young of the Yu family, and then lit a fire and burned everything to ashes. ”

"I see, this Yu family is really wronged, I don't know what the identity of that son is?

"I guess it's difficult!" the man shook his head and said, "This county lord of Dushan County is a good official, how can this matter be regarded as an accident above his boundary? After finding out the cause and effect, he immediately sent a letter to Dali Temple, the matter is very important, and he implored him to send a messenger to investigate the matter, but the song sent out was sunk into the sea and there was no response. And a month ago, this county lord disappeared without explanation, saying that he was sick, and who knows what was going on! Does the newly appointed county lord still dare to investigate this matter? It is estimated that this matter is like this, and more than a dozen members of the Yu family died in vain, who let their lives be bad and provoked people who should not be provoked! As for the identity of the son who committed the poison, my relative refused to say it, and he was afraid that he would cause trouble!

"What kind of world is this, the whole family was killed, and the murderer is still at large!"

"Drink tea!

Su Cheng'an listened to their words word for word, which was not much different from the content of the note found in the incense sachet of the eldest grandson. The content on that note is handwritten in a beautiful and well-organized manner, it shouldn't be from the hand of a maid, and since Dushan County doesn't even know about Dali Temple, how did she get that note?

Who is the identity of that son, the note did not say clearly, she suspected that it was Li Changlong at first, so Li Changlong was so nervous about this matter, but it was not easy for Li Changlong to go out of Beijing as the prince, and he was indeed in the capital for three months, so this matter should be Li Changlong's subordinates and his official status is not low.

Su Tang'an was thinking about this matter, Gu Tingjun sat down, handed a bunch of small white and blue flowers to her like a treasure, and said with a smile: "On the way over, I saw these flowers growing on the high slope, and they are still open at this time. I think this flower has a bit of a shadow of you, so I turned back and picked it for you!"

"Why do you do such a boring thing?" said Su Ju'an with a slight frown, "I don't like this." ”

"It looks boring to you, but I don't think so, you say you don't like it, but your heart may not be soft. Gu Tingjun smiled slightly, "Take it, looking at beautiful things, your mood will be better." ”

Gu Tingjun wanted to stuff the flowers into Su Tangan's hand, Su Tangan frowned and knocked the bouquet to the ground, and said coldly: "I don't like it, I don't like it, you drink tea and rest, I'll wait for you over there!"

Su Tang'an got up to leave, and Gu Tingjun sighed as he looked at the scattered flowers.

"It's really the wind of the world, looking at the dress of these two people, they are also rich and noble, but they have never thought about this wind of Longyang, and they don't shy away from it in broad daylight. The three people who were eating tea said.

Gu Tingjun's intentions made Su Tang'an ignore it, this was unhappy in his heart, these three people were talking a lot, he was worried that he had no place to get angry, and he kicked the table over with a kick before he got up.

The three of them were so shocked that they bounced up from their seats and scolded, "What are you doing!"

"I don't like you. Gu Tingjun sneered, kicked the nearest person, dropped a piece of silver and left.

Su Tang'an went to untie the reins of the horse, heard the movement behind him, and sighed softly, no matter how gentle or cynical he was in front of him, he was still the son and brother who grew up in a honey pot, even in the capital full of powerful people, he was also the master who was coaxed.

She has passed the stage where tenderness and softness can be tempting, and the current situation will not allow her to be tempted, but whether he is sincere or false, he is still pleasing himself in the end, and he is really not close to people.

She turned her head, and Gu Tingjun also walked over, with a light smile on her face, and she didn't see the domineering and arrogant spirit of kicking the table just now.

"Are you angry?" asked Su Tang'an.

"No!" Gu Tingjun said with a smile, "I can't be angry with you for this trivial matter." ”

"Then why are you angry with others?" Su Ju'an smiled secretly, and said, "If you are really angry, you don't have to endure it, you can show it in front of me." You and I are friends, and if you have to be careful even when you get angry, it will be too awkward. ”

She paused and said, "I'm sorry, it's just that you don't have to do these things for me in the future." ”

"Don't worry, I'll only do it once!" Gu Tingjun said, he put a flower behind Su Juan's ear, "But I accepted your apology today." ”

As he spoke, he stepped on the horse and left, and Su Tang'an followed closely.

After two more days of travel, the two arrived at Dushan, found an inn and settled down, and then came downstairs for dinner.

There weren't many people eating, but they were all discussing the case of the Yu family's fire, and it was not a secret that this case was not a secret in the local area, and they had heard all kinds of conspiracy theories from their mouths, which was not to be believed.

However, although they discussed the Yu family's case, they were secretive about the identity of the noble prince in the capital, and no one mentioned it.

If you want to know the truth, you have to look at the original case file.

At night, Su Tang'an and Gu Tingjun sneaked into the county government and wanted to read the case file, but they searched for a long time, but they didn't even find a shadow.

"If the previous county magistrate hadn't died of illness, how could this case file still be kept?" Gu Tingjun said, "I think our efforts have been in vain. ”

"So what are you going to do now?" asked Su Tang'an.

At this time, there was a sound of footsteps outside, and Gu Tingjun gently hugged Su Juan and hid behind the bookshelf. A guard who was patrolling with a lantern entered, looked around the room, and left when he saw that there was nothing unusual.

Gu Tingjun smiled slightly: "I think I can only use the most brutal method." ”

After the words fell, he took a few steps forward, knocked the official unconscious with one palm, and then tied the official to the inn with Su Cheng'an.

About two hours later, the official woke up, and when he saw that he had come to an unfamiliar environment, he was shocked and was about to call for help, but he found that he was tied up with five flowers and his mouth was blocked.

By the orange light, he saw that there were two sons in front of him, but they were unusually handsome, and if he hadn't looked at him with a terrible look at him at this time, he would have appreciated it.

"There are a few words to ask you, you are obedient, you are not tortured, if you shout, there is only one dead word!" Gu Tingjun said lightly, "Understand?"

The official nodded busily.

"Why don't you have a file on the Yu family's case in the Yanai?" asked Su Tang'an.

"Some time ago, I ran away and burned a lot of files, but I am afraid that the case of the Yu family is also among them. The official said.

"We have heard some about the Yu family's case, who is the identity of the noble son from the capital?"

"Are you two Lord Qincha?" the official was shocked, "Returning to the minister, this little one is not very clear." ”

"Do you want me to help you sober up?" Gu Tingjun said coldly.

"Don't ...... I said, I said!" the official showed a look of embarrassment on his face, "That is a small person who can't afford to offend, and I am afraid when I think about the fate of the Yu family, the two ministers don't tell anyone that this matter is a small thing." On the night of the crime, he was not on duty, so he didn't see it with his own eyes, but the little one heard that the son's surname was Zheng, and he was a relative of Xuanyuan Hou. The other little ones really don't dare to say more. ”

Su Tang'an and Gu Tingjun glanced at each other, and there was no surprise to them, this person must be someone who has some connection with the prince.

"Maybe the death of your predecessor county master is also strange. Gu Tingjun said with a slight squint.

"Lord Qincha, our former master is a very good man, a great good official, he killed people just to give justice to the Yu family, you want to avenge our master!" the official suddenly cried.
