He Yanxiu had changed into clean clothes at this time, but his hair had not dried yet, and he was still dripping wet, so he had to wrap a cloak to avoid catching a cold.

"The subordinates have already carefully and secretly checked, and they haven't found any suspicious people in those sons and brothers." Shi Ding replied, "But judging from Chai Mingjun's wounds, it is about a murder weapon such as a short dagger, if the murderer was carefully planning and deliberately murdering, it is possible to throw it into the boat or into the river while there was chaos at that time."

"The subordinates have also dived into the river with a few other people to search, although the river is still relatively gentle, but because the river is too deep and there are a lot of water and grass at the bottom of the river, and it is dark at this time, the murder weapon has not been found, but the subordinates found this in the river."

He Yanxiu took the things handed over by Shi Ding and looked at them carefully.

It is a token, made of fine iron, with a small "魑" character engraved on the front.

魑, a monster that is said to be harmful in the mountains and forests.

Named after this, He Yanxiu has only heard of one in the world.

That is the Yue Wangfu.

He Yanxiu's pupils tightened suddenly, "This matter is actually related to the Yue Wangfu?"

Shi Ding nodded, "It's just that I don't know if this Chai Mingjun is from the Yue Wangfu, or if he was killed by the people from the Yue Wangfu, I just inquired a little below, this Chai Mingjun is the eldest son of the nearby Chai Tongzhi, and he only knows the six officials, and the things he has mastered are also very limited, so this identity ......

It is probably impossible for the king of Yue to send people here.

"And Fang Cai's subordinates learned from the mouths of others that Chai Mingjun is a decent person, he is obsessed with poetry and books on weekdays, and he can't even ride a horse, so he is really a weak scholar who has no power to restrain chickens, and he doesn't seem to be a person who can become a minion of the Yue Wangfu."

All in all, it's quite strange.

"This token is inexplicable, you are here for a while, take a look at the results of the investigation of the Nalin County Order, and then investigate this Chai family clearly." He Yanxiu put away the token and commanded.

"Yes, my subordinates obey." Shi Ding gave up, called two guards to join him, and disappeared into the night.

Because of the fire in the painting boat and the murder of people tonight, Lin County ordered all the boats and personnel present at the scene to stay for two days, interrogate them one by one, and search the boat to find the murder weapon.

He Yanxiu and Su Yujin's ships also had to dock near the dock.

The inquiry could start or end at any time, so the two decided not to go ashore to look for the inn for the time being, but only stayed on the boat for the time being, and sent Xing'an and others to the shore to replenish drinking water and some food.

While waiting for the inquiry, Su Yujin was quite worried, "That person was rescued by the second master, and if something like this happened, will the second master get into trouble because of this?"

The boat at night can encounter the fire of the painting boat and the assassination of someone, Su Yujin had to conspiracy theories, secretly worried.

"How?" He Yanxiu explained with a smile, "To convict a person, it is necessary to determine the witness, physical evidence and intent, which can be said to be indispensable, even if one is missing, the other two must be very clear and admit guilt."

"At that time, many people saw that the man had stopped struggling after falling into the water before I could save him, so it was obvious that he had been assassinated before I went to save him, which was one of them."

"We just passed through here, we didn't know those people, and we didn't have any arguments with that Chai Mingjun, so we didn't have the intention of killing him, this is the second thing."

"And if I really want to kill someone, I won't go to him and get myself into trouble, that's the third thing. I can say that I have no suspicion at all, and I will not get into any trouble."

"What's more, I'm a tobe squire, Chai Mingjun is just the son of Tongzhi, Xiucai was born, if I really don't like it, I can find a mistake at will, I can cook him with his father, there is no need to do such things."

Said ......

Makes a lot of sense!

Su Yujin nodded again and again, and only after the order of the county of Nalin brought the yacha to find her and He Yanxiu for questioning, and also determined that he did not have any suspicion of killing Chai Mingjun, he was relieved.

Especially after learning He Yanxiu's identity

, is even more respectful, "It's Lord He, disrespectful, disrespectful, just a lot of offense, and I hope that Lord He Haihan."

"Lord Lin's responsibility, since this official is affected, he naturally needs to cooperate with one or two." He Yanxiu nodded slightly, and asked, "It's just a good person, who was assassinated in front of this official, and this official is really angry, I don't know if Lord Lin has an eyebrow at this time when he inquires about this case?"

When Lin Xianling was asked, he first twisted his eyebrows, and then sighed, "The lower official is incompetent, and the murder weapon has not been found, and after the official questioned everyone, he learned that after Chai Mingjun fell into the water, he was still struggling in the water for a while, which shows that the person was not killed when he fell into the water."

"And after falling into the water, the testimony of others is all true, no one was seen approaching, and the other two people who fell into the water are also struggling in place, which shows that it is probably not the person who was present who committed the murder, it may be that someone took advantage of the chaos to dive into the water, assassinated Chai Mingjun, and then dived away and secretly left."

If that's the case, then things won't be easy.

This is a canal, the place where the incident occurred is adjacent to the wharf, and there are many people coming and going, and it is even more difficult to find the murderer of Chai Mingjun than to ascend to the sky.

The more Lin County Ling said, the more worried he became.

"This case is really difficult to handle." He Yanxiu also wrinkled his eyebrows, "I can only do my best."

Do your best, obey the destiny of heaven.

"Yes." Lin County ordered a frown.

After the first round of interrogation, Lin County ordered those who had no possibility of committing a crime to sign their testimony and leave first.

This includes the ships on which He Yanxiu and Su Yujin were riding.

The boatmen are ready to sail.

"Please stay." Someone came in a hurry and stopped, "Lord He, please stay!"

He Yanxiu raised his hand, walked from the cabin to the bow of the boat, looked at the man slightly, and raised his eyebrows slightly, "You are the person who fell into the water last night who was rescued by this official and Xing'an?"

After being caught by Xing'an, he was dragged to the side of the boat by He Yanxiu to save his life.

"Exactly, in Xia Su Wenxuan, last night thanks to Lord He and Little Brother came to the rescue, I was able to save my life in Xia, such a great kindness, I will never forget it."

Su Wenxuan saluted respectfully and bowed three times to show respect and gratitude, and then straightened up, "I should have come to thank you earlier, but it was only because the Yamen interrogated and questioned last night, and I was suspicious with Lord He, so it was inconvenient to come and talk to Lord He, so it was delayed until now."

"In the early years of the next family, he did grain and porcelain trading, and often traded with the feudal countries, and the family was also wealthy, but because of the summer floods in the early years, my father took almost all of his net worth for disaster relief, and the emperor Longen rewarded my father with the title of viscount of Anmin County."
