Lord Yang questioned all four of them, and all four of them said that Wang Wei was not far from them at that time.

Because of the boatman's urging, they were in a hurry to eat. After eating, I didn't have time to rest, so I started paddling.

"Did he leave halfway through?" Su Yizhao saw that Lord Yang was going to bring the remaining boatmen for questioning, so he couldn't help but ask out loud.

All four shook their heads, but after a few breaths, one of them thought of something.

"Wang Wei seems to have left for a while, but he came back soon."

"Do you know what he's going to do? How long has it been? Lord Yang immediately asked.

"I don't know! Just for a while, about half a pillar of incense? The boatman thought about it carefully before replying.

The cabin of the rowing boat is at the bottom level, how long does it take to walk from the bottom floor to the upper cabin? Su Yizhao carefully recalled the structure of the ship.

On the first day on the boat, she was very fresh, and she shook around the boat, and now she only has a general structure diagram in her mind.

There were two paths from the bottom floor to the upper cabin she knew, but she didn't know how far away.

There are rules on the ship, passengers are not allowed to go to the lower cabins, and the boatmen in the lower cabins are not allowed to come to the upper decks without permission.

"Wang Wei, where did you go to that half-pillar of incense?" Lord Yang shouted.

"My lord, the grass people go to the toilet! I just had a meal, and I didn't change people in less than an hour, so I had to go to the toilet first. ”

Wang Wei's explanation was expected by Su Yizhao, she glanced at Shopkeeper Zhou, and then looked at Lord Yang.

Lord Yang saw that Su Yizhao had something to say, so he hurriedly eased his expression and asked, "Little boy has any questions?" But it doesn't hurt to say it! ”

"Thank you, sir!"

After Su Yizhao thanked him, he asked, "Shopkeeper Zhou!" How long does it take to get from the bilge to the upper cabin, at the fastest speed for an adult man? ”

Shopkeeper Zhou thought for a moment when he heard this, "It probably takes half a pillar of incense, but there is a door in between, and there are people guarding it on weekdays, and the boatman is not allowed to come up, unless there is an accident." ”

"But you want to call the boatmen who are guarding them for questioning?" Shopkeeper Zhou was very eye-catching, and immediately asked.

Lord Yang was the first to reply, "Go and bring people!" ”

"If the boatman confirms that no one has come up in the bilge, then the suspicion of Wang Wei and the boatman can be ruled out. Besides, the kung fu of half a pillar of incense can't do anything. ”

Lord Yang frowned and analyzed, only feeling that this case was really tricky.

He has little experience in solving cases, and is only in charge of grain transportation, family fields, water conservancy, and litigation on weekdays.

"My lord, let's start with someone who is familiar with the Yao family, and then expand outward, it's easier!" Su Yizhao was optimistic that there was no progress for a long time, and he was also a little anxious.

"It's good! If you have any opinions, please say them, and if they do, it would be great! ”

Lord Yang was very surprised by Su Yizhao's intelligence, it just so happened that he didn't have a clue yet, so it was better to listen to this little one.

"It's not a high opinion, but I have some doubts."

"Your Excellency has been investigating Wang Wei's suspicion just now, then the next thing is Master Du and the nurse Wang, it is better to ask Shopkeeper Zhou to take someone to verify whether what Master Du and Wang said is true. Master Du said that he went to the deck, and Wang said that he was resting in the room, I don't know if there is a witness? ”

Su Yizhao saw Lord Yang nodding, so he said, "Your Excellency, please send someone to find a cabin for these passengers, inquire individually, and make a record." ”

"Not bad! But now that there are not enough people, can the guards brought by Master Su be borrowed? Lord Yang thought that he only brought two followers, so he asked cheekily.

"If an adult wants to use someone and just give orders, how can a student refuse?" Su Wenqing is also very good at the moment and readily agreed.

As Su Yizhao expected, the boatman did not see anyone coming out of the bilge, so Lord Yang asked the boatman to go back.

Next, Su Yizhao focused on the passengers, and this inquiry gave some clues.

"If you want to talk about this couple, I don't think the relationship is very good!" A woman of about thirty years of age pinched her handkerchief and thought for a moment before replying.

"Oh? How so? But what do you know? Su Yizhao was pacing here, and when he heard this, he hurriedly asked.

This woman, Su Yizhao, remembers, and lives in the room next door to Mr. and Mrs. Du.

"It's only been four days since I got on the boat, and I've heard them quarrel twice. The Yao family was even more crying, crying while counting. ”

As soon as the woman heard Su Yizhao's inquiry, she immediately became energetic.

Regardless of whether Su Yizhao is still a child, his eyebrows are dancing.

The house where Master Du lives is just an upper room, not a private room, and the natural sound insulation is worse.

"Do you know what they're arguing about?" Su Yizhao sat beside the woman and asked.

"I didn't listen carefully at first, but then wasn't it boring on the boat? Just stick to the deck and listen to what they are arguing about. ”

The woman paused, twisted herself, and wiped the beads of sweat from her forehead with a handkerchief, as if she could not bear the heat of the cabin.

Seeing this, Su Yizhao immediately sent the curling stone that Uncle Zhong had just brought, and the woman looked the same, and immediately smiled.

I didn't expect this woman to have the habit of listening to the root of the wall, and it seems that she is extremely bored.

Su Yizhao's acquaintance made the woman more enthusiastic, so she stopped selling Guan Zi and talked about it.

I didn't hear it clearly, but I could only vaguely hear her crying that Master Du had lost money in business, and the family had to go back to their ancestral home to live. also said that he had been in the capital for more than ten years, but he didn't expect to come back like this. ”

This was mentioned by Master Du before, Su Yizhao nodded, and motioned for the other party to continue.

Hearing her mention her mother's family, it seems that her mother's family was originally a rich family, and her father and mother subsidized her a lot of silver, just to let them gain a firm foothold in the capital. Now that their business has failed, they have no shame to face their parents when they go back. ”

The woman pondered for a moment, "The second time I was woken up last night, I couldn't sleep, so I went over and listened. ”

As she spoke, she leaned over to Su Yizhao, "What did the Yao family say about Master Du lying to him, and said that the shops and houses in the capital had been withdrawn, and he even hid it from her." ”

"I didn't expect it to come to this point, alas! This business is also precarious! If you don't handle it properly, you will go bankrupt! ”

The woman sighed with emotion, thinking that her family only had a small shop, and fortunately her family had good land.

"Did you hear how you found out?" Su Yizhao felt that this was a key clue, so he asked eagerly.

The woman thought about it for a long time, and finally remembered something.

"I should have seen the deed of the mortgage? At that time, I could only hear her questioning Master Du, mentioning this in her words, and the sound of slapping the table. ”

Su Yizhao wanted to check Master Du's cage, but it would be very inappropriate for her to bring it up.

Only when Master Du's suspicion becomes bigger, can he have the opportunity to check.
