The fire broke out in the second half of the night, which is the most sleepy time of the day, so when it was found, the main house where Mr. Chen lived was hopeless.

Xue County Lieutenant stood in front of the Chen family with them and said: "Fortunately, there is a river on the side, so the fire was quickly controlled after it was discovered. ”

Han Mu asked, "In the second half of the night, how could a good person catch fire?" ”

"Mr. Chen's servant said that it may be that Mr. Chen drew the picture too late and forgot to turn off the lights, and the lights and candles accidentally fell."

"A domestic servant?" Gu Junruo asked, "Does Mr. Chen have no family?" ”

"No, he is single, and there is only one servant in the house." County Lieutenant Xue asked, "Do you want to see him?" ”

Han Mu looked at Gu Junruo.

Gu Junruo said: "Don't worry. ”

She walked into the courtyard and saw that most of the houses had been burned, and the main house and study were the most damaged.

Seeing Gu Junruo staring at the main house, County Lieutenant Xue explained: "This study is connected to the main house, so it is seriously damaged. ”

"That is, everything in the study is burned?"

Xue County Lieutenant also realized that something was wrong at this time, he squinted his eyes and thought for a while, and said seriously: "Not only the things in the study, but also any things with calligraphy and paintings in the Chen family were not left, and they were all burned clean." ”

Han Muyao turned his head to look at Gu Junruo, "What do you mean, this fire is deliberate?" ”

Gu Junruo said: "How can you be so arbitrary when you want to talk about evidence in judging a case?" ”

Han Mu muttered, "I'll just look at the feeling ......"

Gu Junruo walked into the main house, and County Lieutenant Xue pointed her out: "Judging from the traces of burning, the fire started from here. ”

Gu Junruo glanced at the burned furniture, "This is the location of the bed?" ”

"Yes."

Gu Junruo: "Where was Mr. Chen at that time?" ”

"Just lying on the bed, the body was found charred, and I couldn't see my face."

Gu Junruo: "This main house is quite big, where does he usually draw?" ”

Han Mu had already stepped aside, looked at the desk prints that had fallen to the ground and turned into charcoal, and nodded, "Here, there is still a row of bookshelves on the side." ”

County Lieutenant Xue immediately smiled and said, "Yes, according to the servants of the Chen family, it is there." ”

Gu Junruo walked over, looked at it carefully, then looked in the direction of the bed, and asked, "Have you examined the corpse?" ”

Xue County Lieutenant was stunned for a moment and said: "This look is a fire......

Under Gu Junruo's gaze, County Lieutenant Xue immediately said: "When I go back, I will let him do an autopsy." ”

Gu Junruo nodded, and left after looking at the house, "Have you asked Mr. Chen about the bridge?" ”

"No, I listened to Madame, I didn't startle the snake, I just sent someone to keep an eye on him," Xue County Lieutenant paused and said, "He hasn't been to see the bridge, and no craftsman has ever looked for him." ”

Han Mu and Gu Junruo still felt that Mr. Chen's death was too strange, and asked, "Are you sure?" ”

Lieutenant Xue said, "I'll go back and ask again." ”

Gu Junruo nodded, turned around and left, "Call his servants to the county office, we have to interrogate." ”

The county lieutenant Xue should go down, and while asking people to find the servants of the Chen family, he asked him to go to the autopsy.

When Han Mu returned to the county office, he began to look through the official documents boringly, and saw that there were already merchants who had applied for the county, so he was a little happier, "You are right, the river is open, the trade route is open, and most of the people who go out are grain merchants, even if the Yao family strikes the market, they can support it for a while." ”

Gu Junruo thought for a while, then turned his head and asked, "How many official ships are there in our county government?" ”

The chronicle was stunned for a moment and then said, "There is only one." ”

Gu Junruo said to Han Mu: "Let the official ship out, just collect the road fee, the goods will be charged according to the weight, and there will be no tax on grain entering the county, I think there will be many people who are willing to go to Jiangling." ”

Regarding Gu Junruo's measures, Han Mu would only nod, anyway, he couldn't think of a better way.

Compared with these things, he was more concerned about the movements of the Yao family, so as soon as he came back, he asked Xiaobei to stare at the Yao family, and he was bound to see the Yao family's jokes for the first time.

He Ziyou took the initiative to invite Ying, and ran with Xiaobei to stare at Yao's house.

Ding County's movement was not slow, he didn't want to offend Xu Tingshi, but he didn't want to offend Han Mu.

And the matter is prioritized, those assassins assassinated Han Mu twice, and they were both dead soldiers, I don't know how much is involved behind this.

The incident happened in Jiangling County, not to mention Han Mu's identity that made him not give up, even if he didn't sue the capital, he wouldn't be able to eat and walk around if something like this happened to his subordinates.

Therefore, while asking people to quickly find out the identity of the assassin, he sent people to Yixian County to urgently announce the Yao family.

The latter was to appease Han Mu and let him calm down for a while.

Sure enough, the officials of Jiangling County and the Yi County where Han Mu entered before and after, when Han Mu Gu Junruo went to see Mr. Chen's burned house, the Yao family was seeing the officials from Jiangling.

The official who received a bag of money from the Yao family relented and told them some truths, "Han County Ling was assassinated in Jiangling County, and your Yao family is suspicious, so the adults have to ask questions." ”

Yao Jibai immediately jumped out and shouted, "You suspect our Yao family? Our Yao family has a gap with Han County, but we won't just send someone to assassinate him, right? ”

"Shut up!" Yao Boqing roared at this unconscious younger brother, and hurriedly said to the servant: "Little brother is talking nonsense, please don't care." ”

He said: "Han County makes the Grand Duke selfless, my Yao family is very loved, and I only have reverence for him, so how can I hurt him?" ”

The official just didn't hear it, and said, "So we want to see a few adults, and it's good to clear up the suspicion." ”

Yao Boqing's heart sank again and again, but he was afraid that this matter would not be so easy to end.

Han Mu returned to the county without saying a word, but asked the county government of Jiangling to interrogate......

He forced a laugh, planning to go with the official to avoid people, he went to the backyard to find his father, who was also unconscious, and advised: "Please also ask my father to take a trip to the county government with a heavy gift to comfort Han County's order." ”

Master Yao: "...... What happened to him? ”

Yao Boqing said the matter again and said: "This matter can be big or small, we have not done it, but if someone insists on planting this case on our heads, I am afraid it will be difficult for us to wash away our grievances." ”

Yao Boqing is not an impulsive young man, he can bend and stretch, and he knows that some things are not just based on the truth, "Han Mu's status is noble, and Jiangling is not Yixian, he has the ability to do that." ”

When Master Yao heard this, he was impulsive and shouted, "He still wants to frame him?!" ”

"Father, everything will be said when I come back from Jiangling, now let's stabilize the relationship with Han Mu first."

Master Yao is not a hairy boy anymore, so he swallowed his anger and responded: "I know." ”

But I still couldn't help but doubt in my heart, "It can't be that he directed and acted by himself, and he found someone to assassinate himself and frame us, right?" ”

Yao Boqing shook his head and said in a deep voice: "I heard that more than ten assassins have died. ”

When Master Yao heard this, his face changed slightly, and then he became worried, this case will not really be planted on their heads, right?

Han Mu's enemy......

"By the way, could it be his enemy in the capital, but he planted it on our heads?"

Yao Boqing didn't speak, and he also had this suspicion.
