Chapter 131: The Truth Revealed
Shi Gao hit Ou Ye and regretted it, so he bent down, patted him lightly on the shoulder, and smiled all over his face: "Senior brother is really wrong to beat you, I apologize to you." I'm in a hurry to come out today, I didn't have any money with me, I'll give it to you next time. This waist card can solve a case, you have made a great contribution, and the court will reward you. ”
Ou also said: "How much can you reward me." ”
Shi Gao said seriously: "A lot of money. ”
Ou was also not assured: "You can't lie to me. ”
Shi Gao patted his chest: "I'm in the middle of the court—" As soon as he said it, he immediately realized that this would reveal his identity, so he stopped, worried about how to explain if this kid asked what was in the waiting. Fortunately, Ou Ye didn't pay attention to what he said, so he changed his words and said: "A dignified ——, seven-foot man, how could he lie to you." ”
Ou also looked at him and said disdainfully, "Do you have seven feet?" Shi Gao was annoyed and threatened to hit him, but Ou also made a grimace and ran as if flying.
Shi Gao looked at Ou Ye's distant back and laughed at himself: "How did I really become his senior brother." Then he thought again: "The Son of Heaven is the master, and I am the senior brother, so it's not a loss." I couldn't help laughing, holding the card in my hand, and went straight to the Tingwei Mansion.
Yu Dingguo, the court commander, will investigate the murder of the prime minister's wife and the murder of the mother and the old craftsman, and write a chapter overnight and submit it to the emperor in the morning. Liu Xun was quite dissatisfied with the fact that the prime minister's wife had not yet found out the murder of the maid, and he was even more angry that his mother and the old craftsman were killed, and the imperial decree must find out the murderer.
Yu Dingguo returned to the Tingwei Mansion, put the short sword that assassinated Lai's mother and the arrow that shot the old craftsman on the bookcase, and didn't know where to start for a while, and complained in his heart that Yuan Cheng had messed things up, causing the clues to be interrupted.
He picked up the arrow and looked at it over and over again. Indeed, the arrow was fired from the crossbow of the official officer. However, there are thousands of officials who possess such bows and crossbows, and there is no mark on them, so it is impossible to find them at all. So, if you go to the arsenal, can you verify which yamen these arrows were sent to? He fell into deep thought.
"Captain Ting, Shi Gao is here to visit." The sound of the official interrupted his thoughts.
"Who? Who is visiting? Yu Dingguo woke up suddenly, and did not hear the report of the officials.
"Shigao in the middle of the service."
"Please." He hurriedly got up and walked towards the door. Before he reached the door, he could already hear Shi Gao's laughter: "Captain Ting, uninvited guests are here." He also greeted him with a smile and said, "The waiter is here, and I hope to forgive me if I am foolish." As he spoke, he was invited to his seat.
The two sat down, Shi Gao looked at him with a smile and didn't say a word.
Yu Dingguo was a little stunned by him, and asked tentatively: "But Your Majesty has a will?" ”
Shi Gao shook his head, Yu Dingguo sighed, and said: "I have disappointed Your Majesty's expectations, the case of the Prime Minister's Mansion has not been clarified, and two more murder cases have been added." ”
"Is there a clue to the murder?" Scott asked.
Yu Dingguo had a bitter face: "I'm still looking for it." ”
Shi Gao approached Dingguo and said mysteriously: "I have a clue." ”
Yu Dingguo jumped up in shock, Shi Gao looked at him with a smile on his face, and after a while, he waved his hand and said, "Sit down, and sit down." ”
"Gaffe, gaffe. If you are in a hurry, you will be in chaos. Yu Dingguo sat down and shook his head to laugh at himself, and immediately leaned over again and asked eagerly, "What is the clue?" ”
Shi Gao took out the waist card from his sleeve and handed it over with both hands.
Yu Dingguo had a question on his face, pointing to the waist card, and Shi Gao nodded. Yu Dingguo took the waist card with a solemn expression.
He looked through it carefully a few times, touched it again and again, and weighed it, and then said with certainty: "It is indeed the waist card issued by the government office." He seemed to be very incomprehensible, frowning and muttering: "Jingzhao Mansion Mantian, Mantian, how could it be him." ”
"You know this Mantian." Scott asked.
"This person is Zhao Guanghan's attendant, a healthy official, with extremely high martial arts, and is quite trusted by Zhao Guanghan." Yu Ding's Chinese tone showed some regret. Although he thought that Jingzhao Mansion was very suspicious of the two murders, he really had to face this fact, and he still had mixed feelings in his heart.
"How to arrest you still has to plan. If he is alarmed, the clue will be broken again. Scott reminded.
Yu Dingguo lowered his head and thought for a long time, and called the court lieutenant and supervisor. The two muttered and discussed for a while, and the court lieutenant had a serious expression, nodded, got up and went out. Yu Dingguo breathed a sigh of relief and said, "The arrangement is complete." ”
Shi Gao suddenly relaxed and said with a smile: "Are we lucky?" ”
Yu Dingguo said: "The insight in the service is subtle, and the fool is not enough." There was a lot of frustration in his tone.
Shi Gao was proud in his heart, but he made a humble expression on his face, and arched his hand: "Captain Ting's words are wrong. Captain Tin found clues from the Assassin's dagger and saw the subtleties of what wisdom. I was just lucky. Righteous crimes, open up prisons, and court captains. ”
Yu Dingguo was flattered by him like this, and his mood was much better, and he muttered: "Even if it is lucky, it is given to those who have a heart." The two looked at each other and smiled.
Shi Gao looked around, there was no one else, so he moved closer to Yu Dingguo, bowed his head and thought for a while, looked up at Yu Dingguo for a while, and stopped talking.
Yu Dingguo looked at him like this, and he was also puzzled in his heart, and asked tentatively, "What else do you have to say?" ”
Shi Gao hesitated and did not reply immediately, and after a while, he bit his lip, as if he had thought about it, and asked, "That maid from the Prime Minister's Mansion has called her brother."
Yu Dingguo nodded: "It's to call my brother." He stared at Shi Gao curiously. He saw that Shi Gao was trying his best to keep his composure, but he couldn't suppress his excitement, and he wondered in his heart, this brother had been missing for several days, why did Shi Gao become interested. Just thinking about it, Shi Gao suddenly said: "Brother Lai doesn't seem to be dead, I may be able to find her." ”
Yu Dingguo was stunned, and it took a while to come back to his senses, and he stammered when he spoke: "Brother Lai, Brother Lai is not dead, can you find it?" ”
Shi Gao's expression was solemn: "I can't be completely sure, so this matter is not to be silenced." I saw a little girl also called her brother, and it was very likely that she was the maid of the Prime Minister's Mansion. ”
Yu Dingguo suddenly became excited, and his voice became much louder: "If you can find your brother, the prime minister's wife will kill the maid, and the truth will be revealed." What other witnesses do you need, this brother is the best human witness. ”
Shi Gao hurriedly signaled softly and said, "I'm still not sure, so I'll go and confirm." Send some men with me, and if so, bring her, and if not, let it be nothing. He bowed his hands and got up to say goodbye.
Yu Dingguo looked at his back and sighed sincerely: "This Shi Gao, no matter how good things can be met." ”
He immediately sent a capable cadre to follow Shi Gao, and soon, the younger brother was brought over, and all the truth was revealed.
