Chapter 81: Return to Luyang County

Chen Chaoyan silently retracted his gaze and didn't explain much. After taking a few sips of tea and easing his emotions, he continued to say: "The white jade four-eared Yi furnace was searched from Song Yanzhong's study, although the box is in Ma Huai's study, but since there is a problem with the three secret letters, then you can check this mother-in-law again." ”

"Another ......"

Chen Chaoyan raised his eyes and looked at Xie Xuan, "Those assistants, historians, and government servants who have been replaced in the past four or five years are not much different from Song Yanzhong's time when they entered the county guard's mansion. Everyone has changed, but he has stayed safely, and it is difficult to show that he is innocent. Of course, the more important point is that although the matter that the prince came to Luyang County to investigate, although there is no result, since he has done everything possible to put Meng Baishan in the North Prison, he is always somewhat related to the matter to be investigated. And Meng Baishan has a great relationship with Song Yanzhong, and he can't get rid of this. Therefore, Song Yanzhong's personal contacts are also the focus of investigation. ”

Xie Xuan nodded thoughtfully.

Seeing this, Chen Chaoyan simply asked, "If the prince has anything to say, you might as well say it directly." ”

Xie Xuan looked at her, thin lips and smiled, "Miss Chen's memory is really good. ”

Chen Chaoyan twisted his eyebrows inexplicably, "What does the prince want to say?" ”

Xie Xuan raised his hand, and after both the waiter and Wenmo retreated, he sat up, supported his leg with one hand, and leaned over. From a short distance of fifteen or sixteen minutes, he looked at Chen Chaoyan with a flirtatious gaze, "Miss Chen has never suffered a setback, or can't she afford a setback?" ”

"What do you mean?" Chen Chaoyan asked.

Xie Xuan looked at her steadily, "I just praised Miss Chen for two sentences, and Miss Chen is like a frightened bird, why?" ”

Chen Chaoyan raised his eyebrows, "Praise me?" ”

"The county guard mansion has six or seven hundred people, and the information of six or seven hundred people, Miss Chen can remember it accurately, so strong in remembering and using it, not to mention preserving the history, it can also be the best in the world." Xie Xuan leaned back on the cool pillow, unfolded the jade bone landscape fan, and said while fanning, "I have heard people say that they will never forget, but they always scoff at it. Now that I have met Miss Chen, Fang Jue is my shallow knowledge. ”

"The prince praised it falsely." Seeing that he didn't seem to be lying, Chen Chaoyan casually said a few polite words, and then turned the conversation back to the topic, "Wang Da is a member of the military of the judicial Cao, and has been in the county guard for fifteen years, and he knows martial arts, and at the same time, he is more satisfied than Ma Huai with the characteristics of the murderer who murdered Zhou Zhongcai, such as anti-reconnaissance ability, and participation in the tragedy of the Bao family. Although no evidence about him was found during the investigation, if there was really a problem with the three secret letters, he was undoubtedly the most convenient person to obtain Ma Huai's fingerprints. ”

"In addition, the murderer of Shi Zhi, we have already made it clear before that the murderer of Zhou Zhongcai is the same person or the same organization. According to what I just said about the murderer will return to the scene of the crime, Wang Da, who has been following us to investigate door to door, as well as investigating the cases of Shi Zhi and Shi Jiaoer, is undoubtedly the person who knows the progress of solving the case and the means by which I solved the case. ”

"I also think he's the most suspicious." Yuejian suddenly interjected, "When Shi Jiao'er committed suicide and Shi Zhi was killed, Miss Chen originally just planned to go to the mortuary to see their corpses, but later she was led by him to go to Shi Jiao'er's residence and the gambling house where Shi Zhi was killed. ”

"When I said that, I remembered." Ling You was not to be outdone, "The matter of Ma Huai's family opening a pharmacy was also said after he went to find out about Shi Jiao'er and Shi Zhi's case on the way back, and he deliberately went to grab the medicine for Miss Chen. ”

Yuejian nodded, "Since he is a judicial member of the army, it is impossible for him not to know that Bai Shao and I will know about medical skills, and if he knows and grabs medicine, he has ulterior motives." ”

"Also, when he was in the mortuary, if Ruolan and I hadn't rushed to the mortuary, he would have pushed Miss Chen to investigate Shi Jiao'er and Shi Zhi's case." Ling You continued, "He is so active, it must have been arranged a long time ago. ”

After the waiter glanced at Chen Chaoyan and then at Xie Xuan, he said slowly: "It's not all, on the day Mrs. Zhou took out the account book, Gongzi originally intended to let him play the murderer, and he also specially called Ma Huai. ”

Xie Xuan looked at Chen Chaoyan.

Chen Chaoyan looked at Wang Da's personal relationship chart on the light screen.

Wang Da's personal relationship chart is extremely complex.

Of course, this diagram is based on the information on the fingerprint card, so many of the pictures are grayed out. Putting aside these pictures and just looking at the text, it can be clearly seen that Wang Da has a wife and two concubines. Among them, there is one son-in-law, two daughters-in-law, two sisters-in-law, and one sister-in-law. The sister-in-law is married to Miss Haoshen of Luyang County, the eldest daughter is married to the eldest son of Qi Wu, and the second daughter is married to the second son of the county school chief.

You must know that judicial participation in the military is not a rogue official.

In other words, in terms of strength and glory in Luyang County, Feng Shoudao is far inferior to him.

In order to make a comparison, Chen Chaoyan also called up the information of Song Yanzhong and Shen Jimin, who were of the same rank as him. Song Yanzhong entered the county guard mansion six years ago, and Shen Jimin was three years ago, perhaps because of the difference in time, the two are far from catching up with his glory.

In the entire county guard's mansion, the only one who can compete with him is Qi Wu.

But Qi Wu was five years ahead of him in the county guard, and his rank was half a step higher than him.

Chen Chaoyan doesn't want to judge a person's quality by his family background, but when all kinds of 'coincidences' come together, it has to make people suspicious.

didn't care if Xie Xuan would suspect her, so Chen Chaoyan went straight to the video of Wang Da's house to investigate.

Wang Da's house is within ten miles of Zhou Zhongcai's family.

I don't know if I have a preconceived idea, and then look at the confessions of everyone in Wang Da's family, Chen Chaoyan's eyebrows unconsciously tightened more and more.

"Strictly speaking, Ma Huai often goes to the gambling house, is familiar with Shi Zhi, and Zhou Zhongcai goes to the gambling house, and seven or eight times out of ten it is a matter of losing to Shi Zhi and Ma Huai, and it is he who led us to Jishanfang and forced the lady Zhao to tell me. So, I can't wait to go back to the county guard's house. Chen Chaoyan looked at Xie Xuan, "Trouble the prince to send someone back to Luyang County to secretly investigate Wang Da's interpersonal relationships outside the county guard's mansion, such as whether he has an outer room or illegitimate children emotionally, and various contacts between him and his in-laws." In addition, the case files of the county guard within 15 years and the white linen paper used in the three secret letters must also be secretly investigated. ”

"Remember to be cautious when conducting an unannounced investigation, and not to alarm Wang Da."

"In addition, I also have to trouble the prince to send someone back to Luyang County to investigate the white jade four-eared Yi furnace openly. Since Master Yiqing is a jade carving master beyond the reach of ordinary people, ordinary people must not move him. That being the case, who asked him to carve the white jade four-eared Yi furnace is not difficult to find. The status of the prince is noble, and how the white jade four-eared Yi furnace was transferred to Ma Huai's hands must not be difficult to check. ”

"After finding out the ins and outs, I will ask someone to invite the mother-in-law of the Song family who buys vegetables to Ma Huai's house, and let her identify who gave her the white jade four-eared Yi furnace one by one."

"Killing people and blaming others is not a trivial matter, and the white jade four-eared Yi furnace is not an ordinary object, Ma Huai will not be able to leave it to others with confidence. So if the Baiyu Four-Eared Yi Furnace is really Ma Huai's, then the biggest possibility is that he arranged for his henchmen at home to do this. ”

Xie Xuan put away the jade bone landscape fan and tapped the table twice.

There was no movement around, but the sudden silence of Ling You, Yuejian and others let Chen Chaoyan know that someone had already been ordered to return to Luyang County.

After a moment, Xie Xuan knocked the table twice with the jade bone fan again, "Lingyou." ”

"Childe, let Chonglou go." Ling You didn't think about it, so he said.

Xie Xuan looked at him, "Are you sure?" ”

Ling You hesitated and said, "Childe asked me to think about it?" ”

Xie Xuan snorted, "Go back to Luyang County immediately!" ”

"Go back, go back." After Ling You muttered a few words, he raised his smiling face and chatted with Chen Chaoyan again before leaving.

Chen Chaoyan looked at his back as he went away, although he couldn't go back immediately, Xie Xuan didn't seem to feel her urgency. It was still the same as when I came, and it took almost four days to return to Luyang County.

Despite the guarantee of Lingyou, Feng Shoudao couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief when he saw Chen Chaoyan get out of the carriage with his own eyes. Obviously, he already knew about Wen Kui's recruitment of her, and he was very annoyed. In his opinion, if a person as capable as Chen Chaoyan wants to stay, he should stay in the county guard mansion so that he will not destroy the heavens, what is the matter with staying in Beilu County?

After their hard work and showing off the solid confidence of Luyang County, when the wine was warm and the food was full, Feng Shoudao began to tout again.

In the process of touting, Chen Chaoyan stopped several times in succession, and after Feng Shoudao pretended not to see, Chen Chaoyan had no choice but to look at Xie Xuan for help.

Xie Xuan not only didn't help, but also called Ling You to invite two servants to come over and sing songs to help the fun.

Seeing this, Feng Shoudao naturally touted it even more.

Chen Chaoyan endured it again and again, and finally couldn't help it, poured two sips of tea, calmed down his irritable emotions, and asked Ling You directly: "How is the white jade four-eared Yi furnace checked?" ”

"Miss Chen has just returned to Luyang County, and she will rest overnight, and it will not be too late to check tomorrow." Feng Shoudao said.

"I'm really tired." Waiting for his words, Chen Chaoyan quickly put down the teacup and got up, and after waving his hands at Xie Xuan and him, he said, "Don't disturb the Yaxing of the prince and the lord." ”

The words fell, and without waiting for Feng Shoudao to speak, she quickly turned around and left.

Its speed was so fast that Feng Shoudao was shocked for a long time before he came back to his senses.

Ling You complained, "It's not that I said Lord Feng, with your attitude, sooner or later Miss Chen will be pushed to Beilu County." ”

Feng Shoudao immediately asked, "How do you say this?" ”

"What else can I say?" Ling You snorted, "Miss Chen's ability to judge cases and conduct autopsies is real and can withstand any test. The fanciful and unobtrusive praise you just now, I don't think it's sincere, let alone Miss Chen. At this point, you should learn from the Bunda. Master Wen praised Miss Chen, and it was always in moderation. ”

Seeing that he didn't care, Ling You said again: "Don't think I'm scaring you, Miss Chen didn't refuse Lord Wen's solicitation." The reason why he went back to Luyang County with us was just because he thought that there were still some places in Zhou Zhongcai's case that had not been clarified. ”

Feng Shoudao looked at Xie Xuan questioningly.

Xie Xuan said: "He's right. ”

Feng Shoudao still questioned, "The prince doesn't plan to take Miss Chen back to the capital?" ”
