Li Zhiyun waved his hand, letting Zhang Zheng calm down for a while, and then said: "Zhao Changlin, it seems that if this king doesn't put out all the evidence, you won't honestly admit your guilt." Alright, let's start from the beginning. Li Zhiyun cleared his throat and said: "Ten days ago, this king came to Pizhou, and heard in the wine shop that a family outside the city was killed and property was robbed, so this king went to Xinping County Ya, found Wang County Order, and asked Wang County Order to accompany this king to the scene. In addition to the corpses of the nine members of the Lou family, two bloody steel knives and a pennant printed with the word "Liang" were also found at the scene. ”

According to Lou Jiazhuang, in addition to the nine people who were killed, there is also a maid named Liu Gu whose whereabouts are unknown, and this maid is undoubtedly the key to solving the case. Just when Wang Xian ordered the maid to draw a shadow and send people to search for her everywhere but found nothing, Sima Zhang Zheng of the Chu Wangfu captured a thief in the market and accidentally found a silver bracelet from him, and this silver bracelet was exactly the same as the silver bracelet that Cai Hu picked up in the Lou family Yahuan room. Obviously, when the maid left Lou's house, she left a silver bracelet under the bed because she was in a hurry, and she fled from Lou's house with the other silver bracelet. According to the thief Zheng Shan, his silver bracelet was stolen from the Nunnery of Cuiping Mountain. So, this king and Wang Xian Ling took people to the nunnery to capture Liu Gu, and found a tablet dedicated to the nine members of the Lou family in the dark room of her residence. However, after Liu Gu was arrested, she refused to confess and hanged herself that night. ”

Later, the king returned to Cuiping Mountain and learned from the head of the nunnery of Lianxin Temple that she was entrusted by Sun Fen to join the army, so she took in Liu Gu. After the king went down the mountain, he found Sun Fen, but Sun Fen said that he didn't know Aunt Liu, but because when he went up the mountain to enter the incense, he happened to see Aunt Liu wanting to jump off the cliff and commit suicide. It was only because of sympathy that he helped Liu Gu intercede with the owner of the nunnery. There is no flaw in what Sun Fen said, but the king still sent Cai Hu to find out Sun Fen's original place in the cabinet library of the state government, and sent Cai Hu to Qingquan Village, Anping Township, Yongshou County, where Sun Fen was originally from, and found out that Sun Fen was Liu Gu's own brother. Cai Hu also found out that Sun Fen's father was killed by Sun Changwei, a fellow clansman, in his early years, and Sun Fen was only ten years old that year. A few years later, Sun Fen's uncle held a banquet at home, and Sun Changwei was also present, Sun Fen smashed Sun Changwei to death with a brick, was captured by the government, and sentenced to death. At that time, Zhao Changlin happened to be serving as the county magistrate in Yongshou County, and it was precisely because of his operation up and down that Sun Fen was cleared of the charge. Later, he kept Sun Fen by his side as a confidant. Now it seems that in order to repay the life-saving grace of the year, Sun Fen summoned his sister Liu Gu from his hometown, and let Liu Gu pretend to be a maid into the Lou family, and found out the secret room where the Lou family hid treasures. And after Aunt Liu was arrested, in order not to involve her own brother, she chose to hang herself. ”

After this king learned that Sun Fen was Liu Gu's own brother, he immediately led people to arrest Sun Fen. However, Zhao Changlin learned that the king had found out the details of Sun Fen, so he took the lead and sent Lu Sifang to poison Sun Fen in the name of drinking. In order to find out the truth about Sun Fen's poisoning, the king sent people to track down the source of arsenic, and finally found out that Lu Sifang had purchased arsenic in a pharmacy in Zhushan Town, fifteen miles away from the city. Li Zhiyun said, turned around and took a few pieces of paper from the hand of a servant next to him, and showed them to everyone, "This is the account page of the pharmacy and the testimony of the shopkeeper." ”

Then, Li Zhiyun continued: "After finding out that Lu Sifang was the murderer who poisoned Sun Fen, this king led people to arrest Lu Sifang. This time, Zhao Changlin took the lead again, and he bribed an assassin with a lot of money to kill Lu Sifang. However, what he didn't expect was that when this king rushed to Lu Sifang's residence, he still had a breath and said the word Qiuhong to this king. At first, this king thought it was a personal name, but later I learned that what Lu Sifang was talking about was the Qiuhong Courtyard where we are now. After learning that the Qiuhong Courtyard might be the location where the stolen goods were hidden, Zhang Zheng led people to sneak into the courtyard at night, and finally found the gold and silver treasures that had been robbed of the Lou family. ”

After getting rid of Sun Fen and Lu Sifang, Zhao Changlin didn't do anything, and asked the assassins to kill Diao Dagui, Li Er, and Ruan Xiaoqi, who were guarding the armory, and set fire to the armory, creating the illusion that the three of them were burned to death because of a fire. Zhao Changlin believes that Sun Fen, Lu Sifang and the three regimental soldiers who participated in the Lou family's bloody case are all dead, and the truth of the Lou family's bloody case will forever sink into the sea. However, being smart was mistaken by being smart, he didn't expect that when the king went to the house of the three regimental soldiers to pay respects, Diao Dagui's wife told the king something. ”

Li Zhiyun turned to Sang Xianhe and said, "General Sang, do you remember that once when we were walking horses outside the city, you said that the horse I rode belonged to Zhao Tingshi?" Seeing Sang Xianhe nodded, he continued, "I won't tell you that the horse belongs to the outsider, and this king is just raising it on his behalf." At that time, the king thought, how could Zhao Tingshi's horse appear in the stable of the building staff's house? Could it be that Zhao Tingshi was honest and honest, and he had no choice but to sell the horse, and it happened to be bought back by the building staff? To tell you the truth, this king was quite moved at that time. However, it was Diao Dagui's wife who told the king what was going on. ”

Diao Dagui's wife said that Diao Dagui was once drunk and told her that he had sent a horse to Zhao Tingshi for Zhao Tingshi with Sun Fen, and used this as an excuse to borrow 50 million yuan from the building staff. However, although the building staff was very rich, he was also very stingy, and only agreed to lend Zhao Tingshi 3 million, but Zhao Tingshi thought that the money borrowed was too small, so he refused. It turned out that our Lord Zhao had long been eyeing the Lou family's billions of wealth. Li Zhiyun said, took a piece of paper from the hand of the official next to him, and showed it to everyone, "This is the testimony of Diao Dagui's wife." ”

Then, Li Zhiyun changed it again, and said to Zhao Changlin: "Zhao Tingshi, didn't you say that this Qiuhong Courtyard is not yours?" This is the deed that this king sent people to find in the pavilion library, and it can clearly write your name Zhao Changlin. With that, he handed the deed to Juniper, who read it and handed it to Sang Xianhe. Sang Xianhe looked at it, raised his head and said to Zhao Changlin: "Zhao Tingshi, this villa is yours, and the gold and silver treasures that were robbed by the housekeeper were found in the villa, these are all what we saw with our own eyes, do you have anything else to say?" ”

What Li Zhiyun didn't say was that before that, although he already knew that the mastermind behind the Lou family's bloody case was Zhao Changlin, there was no hard evidence in his hand, and the assassin had not been captured yet, so there was no evidence to prove that Zhao Changlin instructed the assassin to kill Lu Sifang and Diao Dagui and other three soldiers, everything was speculation. And Zhao Changlin is a state assassin after all, and if there is no ironclad evidence, it is impossible to convict him.

Li Zhiyunqi was in danger, and went directly to Zhao Changlin, telling him that he already knew about his relationship with Sun Fen, and revealed that he had already suspected him, and it was only a matter of time before he found evidence. The reason why Li Zhiyun did this was to knock on the mountain and shock the tiger, hit the grass and scare the snake, and even lure the snake out of the hole, forcing Zhao Changlin to jump over the wall in a hurry. Of course, Li Zhiyun met with Sang Xianhe before meeting Zhao Changlin. He wants to stabilize Sang Xianhe, pull Sang Xianhe to his side, and at least let Sang Xianhe remain neutral. As long as Zhao Changlin can't mobilize the army, he won't dare to act rashly, and in that case, he will only have one way to escape. And before Zhao Changlin escaped, he would not forget the treasures he had worked so hard to get. It's just that Zhao Changlin wouldn't have thought that the Qiuhong Courtyard where he hid the treasure had already been targeted by Li Zhiyun, as long as he went to get the treasure, he would fall into the trap set by Li Zhiyun for him, and Li Zhiyun would catch the turtle in an urn, and everyone would get the stolen goods.

The eyes of everyone in the room fell on Zhao Changlin's face, no one spoke, and the surroundings were so quiet that they could hear even a needle falling on the ground. Zhao Changlin was completely desperate, he knew that he was planted tonight, he was blocked in the villa, so many gold and silver treasures were placed in front of him, he was full of mouths, and he couldn't argue. Thinking of this, Zhao Changlin said with a sigh of relief: "Yes, I instigated the theft of the Lou family's gold and silver treasures, however, it was not my intention to kill the nine members of the Lou family. My subordinates can't blame me for their incompetence, right? ”

When Sang Xianhe heard this, his eyes widened and said: "Zhao Changlin, you are already a state assassin, a local magistrate, isn't it enough for you to spend?" What do you want so much money for? When Zhao Changlin heard this, he sneered and said: "You better go and ask the King of Chu, he is still a prince, he doesn't still open inns, money houses and wine shops to make money, and also open money shops to make money, who can have such privileges?" ”

It seems that Zhao Changlin is on the same page as Li Zhiyun, and he doesn't forget to get involved with him when he says anything. Everyone's eyes suddenly fell on Li Zhiyun's face, wanting to see how he answered. Before Li Zhiyun could speak, Zhang Zheng defended him first: "Bold rebel, how can you be compared with the prince?" The prince made money in business, which was to prepare for the construction of a new army and develop firearms. Haven't you heard of the fact that the New Army has performed many miraculous feats on the battlefield? The prince is loyal to the country, and the duke is selfless, which is completely for the sake of the Tang Dynasty. In order for the Tang Dynasty to unify the country as soon as possible, and return the people of the world to a peaceful and prosperous era. ”

Zhang Zheng praised Li Zhiyun like a flower, which made him embarrassed. As a matter of fact, he was preparing to build a new army and develop new weapons mainly for the purpose of self-preservation. Of course, none of the people present knew what was going to happen in the future, "so no one could get a peek into the secret in his heart."

After listening to Zhang Zheng's words, Sang Xianhe turned his head to Zhao Changlin and said: "Yes, the king of Chu opened an inn, a money house and a wine shop, which are all serious business, and his opening of a money shop to make money is also licensed by the emperor." Besides, the prince is to raise military expenses, what about you? What do you want so much money for? ”
