Pavilion wWw. biquge。 infoBoth of them are masters of the dynasty, rich in learning, five cars, eight high, astronomy, geography. Especially Taifu Yanhe, although he no longer holds a real position in the court, he is the emperor today, and there is no need to kneel in front of the current saint.
Yan He and Cai Yunzhi were brutally killed in their respective homes, their hands and feet were broken, and they were apparently tortured before they died, and the methods revealed to be committed by the same gang of thugs. The two adults are obsessed with learning, treat people with kindness, and have no quarrel with the world, who can such a person have a grudge against and be so cruelly killed? When the saint learned the news, he personally went to the Taifu Mansion to mourn, and the spirit wept bitterly, and strictly ordered the Dali Temple and the Criminal Department to solve the case within five days. Dali Siqing and Shangshu of the Criminal Department have been busy for nearly a month, arresting all the suspects into the yamen and interrogating them strictly, but they have no clue, and the murderer seems to appear out of thin air and disappear out of thin air, and there is no trace.
The saint was furious and issued an order to reprimand the two departments for handling the case unfavorably, and Lei Jinmao, the third son of the Lei State Mansion, who was also a disciple of the emperor, recommended himself, made a military order, and asked for life to solve the case. The saint is very comforted, and he is specially given a sword above, and the two departments are responsible for cooperating, and the murderer must be caught before the Chengtian Festival.
Chengtian Festival is the holy birthday of the current Emperor Chai Rong, the third day of the third month of March, and there is less than half a month to go, and the people of the entire capital are holding their breath and staring at Lei Jin. Although there is no progress in the case yet, everyone has a god-like intuition, believing that Lei Jin, who has been roaring for nine days, will solve the case as scheduled and catch the culprit to avenge his mentor.
Lei Guogong didn't have such a mysterious intuition in the house, he hurriedly grabbed off his beard and lost one handful after another, a good bearded man was stunned and was about to become a eunuch, pacing in a circle in the house, the Duchess of Guo was irritable, persuaded him and didn't listen, so she simply took the maid and the woman out of sight.
Lei Jin, who had been investigating the case all day, returned by moonlight, and saw his father pacing back and forth in the main hall again, and his mother leisurely pruning a pot of Du Yu in full bloom, and his brother and sister-in-law were hiding from anyone.
"Jin'er, why did you come back so early, how did you find out, do you want to send some more people to you for your father?" Lei Sheng saw his youngest son and asked impatiently.
"It's going well, and my father doesn't need to worry." Lei Jin declined his father's kindness, and now he is not short of manpower.
Smelling the thick bloody smell of the black-clothed Xuandai's son, he knew that he was staying in the torture room today, and Lei Sheng's eyes were full of fierceness. But before he could say anything crazy, Mrs. Gao put down the scissors and said calmly, "Jin'er is hungry, go change clothes and eat, and rest early." ”
Lei Sheng immediately jumped to his feet, and his beard was pulled off several times, "Madam! It's all burning your eyebrows, and you're so angry! ”
Mrs. Gao picked up the scissors, picked up a branch of green leaves and red flowers that had just been cut, clicked a few scissors to cut off the green leaves, leaving only the top two lonely red flowers, raised her eyes and asked coldly, "What, the lord has an opinion?" ”
Lei Sheng shook the few three locks of long beard, and quickly shook his head, "No, no!" ”
The servant next to him lowered his head and laughed tremblingly.
At this moment, Qianmo ran in with a letter, "The third son, the fourth girl has a letter!" ”
Lei Sheng immediately jumped up, slapped the table, and roared at Qianmo, "What four girls, what a body to shout and scream!" ”
Qianmo shrunk her neck, hid behind Lei Jin, and whispered, "The fourth girl sent someone to deliver an urgent letter from Meixian. ”
Mrs. Gao wiped the scissors in her hand, "It's my goddaughter who sent the letter, Jin'er opened it and took a look, she was in a hurry to send the letter, there should be something." ”
Lei Sheng then remembered that his youngest son recognized the goddaughter he had never met in the township, and sat down with a blow of his beard and a glare. Lei Jin looked at the notes, it was indeed Lan Yi's handwriting, sat down and opened the envelope, unfolded the letterhead, and the more he looked at it, the more solemn his expression became, "What about the person who sent the letter?" ”
When Qianmo saw his son-in-law's face, he knew that the person who stayed was right, "The messenger is two errand officers from the Meixian Yamen, and they are waiting outside." ”
Lan Yi knew that this matter was very important, so he found Mi Yichao and used the yamen's messengers to deliver the letter to Lei Jin so quickly.
Lei Jin walked out quickly, Lei Sheng stroked his beard, and was puzzled. Mrs. Gao also looked at her son's rapidly departing figure thoughtfully, and stopped Qianmo who followed him, "Isn't Lan Yi's girl in Beigou Village, how can it be that the messenger from Meixian County will deliver the letter?" ”
"The fourth girl's maiden home is Meixian." Qianmo watched Lei Jin walk out and disappear, scratching his cheeks and wanting to follow him over, he was also curious about what Lan Yi had in a hurry to alarm the messenger of the Meixian county government to send a letter.
Seeing him like this, Mrs. Gao waved his hand and asked him to follow. Qianmo hurriedly chased after him, only to realize that his son-in-law had finished asking and left the house again, so he stomped his feet in a hurry.
Lei Jin carried Lan Yi's letter to the Guozijian Library Pavilion, and went straight to the place where the Yixue books were stored on the fourth floor of the Library, and ordered the Guozijian master to immediately find out the situation of the Yixue books being read. In addition to the three floors of the Guozijian library to read the books, there are a small number of students who are licensed by the Guozijian, and all the people who go to the three floors or more to read the books are recorded in the book each time.
It didn't take much effort, the main book found out the information that Lei Jin needed, and presented it to him, Lei Jin looked through the list, and in recent months, there were two people who went in and out of the fourth floor of the library pavilion to look at Yi Xue, among them there was indeed a disciple of the Lan family, named Lan Ruhui, who was the doctor of the Five Classics of Guozijian. There is also a person named Du Shen, this Du Shen's name Lei Jin is familiar with, it is the student of Guozijian who disappeared half a month ago, and he is somewhat involved in the murder of Cai Yunzhi.
"Lan Ruhui has been in the Guozijian for eight years, and he is quite accomplished in Yi Xue, and he is deeply appreciated by the Lord of the Sacrificial Wine, and the Lord should also recognize him." The master of the Guozi Prison replied cautiously, although he didn't know why Lei Jin was looking for these people, but he knew that Lei Jin was investigating the case recently, and he came at night, it must be related to the case, although he didn't believe that Lan Ruhui would be the murderer of the Lord of the Sacrificial Wine, although he explained, "The night the Lord was killed, he was in the Guozi Prison and did not go out. ”
"Where is he now, come to me." Lei Jin often went in and out of Guozijian when he was in Beijing, and he did know Lan Ruhui, and his impression of him was quite good, but he paid attention to evidence in handling cases, and now he can't let go of any suspicious things.
The main book immediately ordered someone to pass on Lan Ruhui, and Lei Jin took out Yuan Tiangang's "Nine Heavens Xuannu Liuren Lesson" and Guo Pu's "Funeral Sutra" written by Yuan Tiangang, which had been read by Du Shen and Lan Ruhui many times, and put it on the bookshelf after reading it, and then fell on another book called "Interpretation of the Xuansoul Sutra".
After opening the "Interpretation of the Xuan Soul Sutra", two of the pages were torn off, and the tear marks were very new, which should have been a matter of the past month or two. Looking at the content before and after, what should be torn off is a drawing.
The chief secretary of the Guozijian also saw the tear, and his face was full of anger and regret, "This, who did this, so bold!" ”
"Who was the last person to borrow this book?" The thoughts in Lei Jin's heart gradually became clear.
