Chapter 2: Handling the Case!
The air in the study was almost still, and the two of them remained motionless in the posture they had just now, until Li Yunji swallowed his saliva fiercely, and Qin Xi'er slowly retreated.
Qin Xi'er sat down slightly tired, the expression of anger and suspicion on her face just now vanished, replaced by a look of pity.
"It seems that Mingyue is right, you are indeed back to the light."
"Back to the light..."
"Forget it!"
Seeing that Qin Xi'er didn't believe herself, Li Yunji didn't bother to explain, she only felt tired. But after thinking about it, this predecessor has been a fool for 22 years, and as soon as he speaks, he tells others that he has solved a big case, who believes it?
Only fools believe it.
Looking at the helpless Qin Xi'er in front of him, Li Yunji felt very uncomfortable, after all, a husband and wife are a hundred days of grace.
Think about it, although Qin Xi'er has looked down on herself over the years, she has never treated herself badly after all. Now that Qin Xi'er is in trouble, how can she see death and not save herself?
Thinking of this, Li Yunji slowly got up and paced back and forth in the study, just as he wanted to analyze the case to Qin Xi'er and show his demeanor as a detective, but saw a burly, five big and three thick man outside the door.
"Miss, the lord asked you to go to Dali Temple, it seems that there is something urgent."
As soon as Qin Xi'er heard the news, she hurriedly went out, and before leaving, she specially explained: "Jiang Kui, you give me a look at him!" Don't let him mess with me again! ”
The tall man's name was Jiang Kui, a member of the Qin Mansion.
In the early years, he was a fast catcher in the yamen of Shangjing, but later because he made a mistake because of drinking, the suspect ran away, and was removed by the county order, and since then he has not drunk a drop of alcohol.
Later, Qin Mansion recruited Ding, Jiang Kui was already poor at that time, and when he was desperate, he had the mentality of giving it a try to see the excitement, who knew that Qin Xi'er took a fancy to him at a glance and recruited him into the mansion.
Qin Xi'er didn't think much about it at the time, she just fell in love with Jiang Kui's physique, but Jiang Kui regarded Qin Xi'er as his savior. Although he does manual work every day, he enjoys it himself, and he is also obedient to Qin Xi'er.
Over time, Jiang Kui also became Qin Xi'er's confidant.
Li Yunji was in the study, Jiang Kui was blocking the door, as Qin Xi'er said, he really stared at Li Yunji, and he didn't even blink his eyes.
Li Yunji looked at Jiang Kui's bloodshot eyes, and asked with a little surprise: "You, your eyes are not dry?" ”
"Don't do it!"
"Why don't you take a break? Blink? ”
"Miss's order, I want to look at my uncle!"
Wait a minute... Uncle? When will my uncle be able to speak?! Jiang Kui looked at Li Yunji with a little surprise.
But in just a second, he regained his seriousness just now, after all, the young lady's order was his first priority now.
Seeing that Jiang Kui was so persistent, Li Yunji didn't have much to say.
I thought that I would sneak out of the wooden wall that I had just kicked while Jiang Kui was not paying attention, but now it seems that the plan is about to come to naught.
The bored Li Yunji sat in the study and pondered, he hadn't had time to explain the clues of the case to Qin Xi'er, seeing that she was clueless now, it was impossible to solve the case tomorrow.
Why don't you just be a good person and help Qin Xi'er catch the criminals back?
But when you first arrive, how easy is it to get a fugitive?
When he was worried, Li Yunji saw the waist card engraved with the words Dali Temple hanging on Jiang Kui's waist, and suddenly had a plan.
I saw Li Yunji walking straight out of the door, of course Jiang Kui would not let him out, and stopped him.
Li Yunji pretended to be angry and said, "Let go!" ”
"Miss instructed Jiang to look at my uncle, if my uncle breaks in, don't blame me for being polite!"
"What do you dare to do to me? No matter how bad it is, I'm also an uncle! Why are you just a guard stopping me?! Li Yunji deliberately provoked a conflict, and as he spoke, his body slowly approached Jiang Kui.
Jiang Kui didn't say a word, and grabbed Li Yunji with one hand.
Of course, Li Yunji knew that he would definitely not be able to get out, and the reason why he did this was just to distract Jiang Kui and touch his waist card with his hand.
After the plan succeeded, Li Yunji shook off Jiang Kui's hand, walked towards the house angrily, and scolded: "Okay! Don't let me out, do you? Then let me sleep! ”
Li Yunji said, unfolded the screen in the study, took the opportunity to the table, and deliberately exposed a pair of shoes.
Jiang Kui wanted to stop Li Yunji, but when he saw his feet exposed outside the screen, he thought that Li Yunji couldn't turn up any wind and rain under his nose, so he gave up.
I don't know how long it took, the feet didn't move, and the more Jiang Kui looked, the more wrong it became, and he decided to step forward to find out.
"It's broken!"
Jiang Kui detoured behind the screen, but only saw a pair of brushes with shoes pressed by bamboo slips hanging on the edge of the table, but Li Yunji was nowhere to be seen.
It turned out that Li Yunji had already slipped out of the hole he had kicked just now, and he didn't know where to go when he rode on the horse at the door.
In Dali Temple, Qin Sicheng was sitting in the main hall looking at the file in his hand, and next to him, Qin Xi'er's brother Qin Chao was standing. Seeing Qin Xi'er coming in a hurry, Qin Chao greeted him and said.
"Xi'er is coming, sit."
Qin Xi'er was stunned for a moment, and then saluted: "Father, brother, have you found any clues?" ”
Qin Chao glanced at Qin Sicheng, and said in a non-trivial manner: "Xi'er, take a sip of tea first." ”
Of course, Qin Xi'er knew that her father was ridiculed by people in the capital because she married a fool, and she hadn't said a word to Qin Xi'er for two years.
"Brother, what the hell is going on?" Qin Xi'er asked a little anxiously.
Qin Chao avoided Qin Xi'er's eyes, looked at Qin Sicheng, who was silent, and said in a slurred manner: "No, it's okay." ”
Qin Xi'er is also an anxious child, seeing that the two of them couldn't hold back a fart for a long time, they turned around and were about to leave.
"Stop."
At the critical moment, Qin Sicheng stopped Qin Xi'er. Seeing that Qin Xi'er, who was stopped, didn't look back, so rude, Qin Sicheng scolded: "Do you really don't recognize me as a father?!" ”
She didn't speak for two years, and scolded herself as soon as she opened her mouth, Qin Xi'er felt a little aggrieved.
Thinking of Qin Sicheng forcing himself to marry the son of the Zhao family who didn't learn and didn't know how to do it all day long, Qin Xi'er got angry and replied: "Is there any father in the world who will push his daughter into the fire pit?" ”
"You!"
Old Man Qin was so dizzy by Qin Xi'er's words that he couldn't even speak.
Seeing this, Qin Chao on the side hurriedly went over to support Qin Sicheng, and said to Qin Xi'er helplessly.
"Xi'er, how can you say that about Dad! Dad is also for your good, how many famous families in the capital have squeezed their heads, and Zhao Gongzi doesn't even look at it. ”
"It's good for you, Zhao Gongzi has come to propose marriage again and again, but you just found a fool to marry..."
Qin Xi'er snorted coldly and said, "Brother Qin Chao, you don't know what kind of person Xi'er is, if I marry Zhao Li..."
"Bold!! Don't talk falsely! Qin Sicheng saw that Qin Xi'er was about to speak disrespectfully, and immediately stopped him.
Looking at Qin Sicheng and Qin Chao's abnormal behavior, Qin Xi'er had already guessed the reason why the two came to her.
"Father just wants to cling to the Zhao family through Xi'er, so that when the Son of Heaven condemns tomorrow, let the Zhao family say a few good words for the Qin family and keep his black hat, right?"
"I, Qin Xi'er, do things alone, this is my case, and I will definitely not implicate you when the time comes!"
After that, Qin Xi'er left angrily.
Looking at Qin Xi'er's distant back, Qin Chao shouted behind him: "Don't you say that if you don't implicate, you won't be implicated?" Dad is Dali Siqing, if Your Majesty wants to punish him, Dad will be to blame! ”
"Have you thought about it? Because of your impulsive actions, nearly 100 people in Dali Temple were punished! Qin Xi'er, don't be too selfish!! ”
Qin Xi'er still didn't mean to stop, but there was a trace of worry on her face that was still angry just now.
Li Yunji rode all the way and galloped all the way, and under the guidance of the neighbors of Shangjingcheng, he went to the household department, but when he wanted to go in, he ran into trouble.
The household waiter who happened to pass by the door saw Li Yunji holding the token of Dali Temple, and said with a slight mockery: "Yo! Isn't this the detective of Dali Temple? What's the matter with coming to the Household Department? ”
Seeing such a yin and yang strange household servant, of course Li Yunji couldn't give him a good look, so he said: "On the order of Shaoqing of Dali Temple, I came to check on someone." ”
"Is it for the Hefu Destruction Case?"
"Exactly."
When asked about Li Yunji's purpose, the ugly face of the Tobe servant was immediately revealed.
The news that the Son of Heaven wants Dali Temple to solve the case on the seventh day is well known, and now it is the sixth day, and hundreds of civil and military officials are waiting to see Dali Temple make a fool, and they can't spoil everyone's interest.
"Oh, it's unfortunate, I'm afraid I can't find out the case file of the household department today."
Hearing this, Li Yunji seemed to have expected it, raised the corners of his mouth and said: "That's okay, tomorrow I will tell Your Majesty the truth, just say that the household department did not cooperate with the investigation of the case, and made it difficult in every way, which caused the case to not be solved." After saying that, he resolutely got on his horse and prepared to leave.
These words can scare the household servant a lot, if His Majesty really blames it, I am afraid that as soon as these words come out, the household department will also be implicated.
It's the sixth day now, and there are still no clues, even if Dali Temple is capable, it can't find out the truth overnight, right?
After thinking about it again, he hurriedly grabbed Li Yunji and said with a smile: "Detective, please stay!" No one else can check it, but you can! ”
Under the guidance of the head of the household, Li Yunji got the clues he wanted and left the household department satisfied.
As soon as he left the door of the house, he saw Jiang Kui waiting at the door.
I saw Jiang Kui clasping his hands in front of his chest, his brows furrowed, and his angry face no longer felt a trace of kindness.
Li Yunji smiled awkwardly at him, and then jumped on the horse with lightning speed, slapped the horse's ass fiercely and wanted to leave.
Jiang Kui is not a fuel-efficient lamp, seeing that Li Yunji was about to run, he kicked the ground with his right foot, and the whole person rose into the air, and after spinning in the air for an unknown number of times, he sat behind Li Yunji with his ass.
"Uncle! Offended! ”
After Jiang Kui finished speaking, a hand knife was about to slash at Li Yunji's neck.
"Oh don't don't! Listen to me! I'm here to save your young lady!! ”
At the last moment, Jiang Kui stopped the hand knife that was only a millimeter away from Li Yunji's neck.
As soon as he heard that it was related to Qin Xi'er, Jiang Kui couldn't sit still, and immediately asked anxiously, "What's wrong with Miss?!" ”
Li Yunji sighed and said: "He Mansion extermination case, Your Majesty wants your young lady to solve the case in seven days, and now it is the sixth day, don't you know about this?" ”
"I don't know! I'm here, Miss is going out early and returning late these days, how do I know? But what can I do? ”
"Don't worry, I'm here!"
Thinking that he had misheard, Jiang Kui glanced at Li Yunji with disdain and said, "Forget it, uncle, what can you do?" The day before yesterday, I was playing hide and seek with the cat in the yard. I'll do that. ”
Li Yunji was not happy, but after thinking about it, he had been stupid for many years, and naturally no one believed what he said.
Although Jiang Kuiren was a little stupid, he was a normal person, if he handed over the evidence, he would still be somewhat convincing, so he sighed: "Then tell me, what are you going to do?" ”
"Of course, I took the young lady out of the city overnight..."
"Stop! Have you ever wondered who will fall on this if your young lady runs away? When the time comes, will you be ruined, can you afford it? ”
Seeing that Jiang Kui was silent, Li Yunji continued: "I have a plan, but you have to go with me." ”
Li Yunji took Jiang Kui to almost cross the entire north and south of Shangjing City, and it took a whole hour to arrive at a bamboo forest before sunset.
And behind this bamboo forest, there is a hidden house that is smoking from the curling stove...
