Chapter 12 The Long History of the King of Letters
In the Fusi Mansion in the southern town of Tsing Yi, the Tsing Yi Wei who were sent out to investigate the case came back, and Du Wen gathered everyone together and summarized the news according to what Jiang Cheng said.
Jiang Cheng found a wooden board, nailed it to the wall, and found a few sticks of charcoal to make charcoal, wrote the names of Lin Xinwen and Cheng Wenhua in the middle, and then listed many names with them as the center.
"Senho-sama, I'm ready here"
"Jiang Cheng, let's start"
Du Wen nodded, Jiang Cheng's case-handling methods were very novel, Tsing Yiwei hadn't handled cases like this before, so he also wanted to know what Jiang Cheng had found out in one day.
"Yes, now we have found out that the deceased, Lin Xinwen, the son of the Marquis of Xinhuai, and Cheng Wenhua, the son of the Hubu Shilang, arrived at Sanssouci Lou in Nancheng at three o'clock last night, and wanted to find Sanssouci Lou Oiran Smoke Girl to drink, it is worth mentioning that the two deceased had a small relationship, grew up together since childhood, smelled the same, they drank, gambled, and went to Qinglou, all together.
They waited for an hour in Sanssouci Building, and heard that the Yanyan girl did not see the guest last night, and immediately became angry, and called out to report the news to the maid Yun'er, the maid fainted on the spot, and the two wanted to make a big fuss in the Sanssouci Building, but when they heard that the benefactor of the Yanyan girl was the king of letters, they didn't dare to make trouble anymore, and found the other two girls to accompany them.
After that, they drank together until about a moment in Hai, because they didn't get the Oiran's affection, so they were dissatisfied, and decided to go to the Linglong Pavilion in the West City to find the rest of the Oiran together.
Walking from Sanssouci to the exit of Goolan Street, that is, the side where we met them, it is estimated that the two of them were hungry, so they sat down to eat a bowl of wontons until the crime occurred."
"This is the process we expected, I dare not guarantee 100% accuracy, it is based on the current information inferred, let's talk about the background of the two people"
"Needless to say, the two of them are from rich backgrounds, according to the news that colleagues went to investigate, the two are usually extremely arrogant, and now the files that have been turned out, in just three years, the two of them have injured people seven times, fought twelve times, robbed the people's girls four times, and made countless drunken troubles, because they were pressed down by their powerful background, so there was nothing at all.
Before this year, they were just small evils, until the beginning of spring, they were recommended by their respective families to ask the fairy pavilion, immediately intensified their badness, within half a year, five times, the most serious two were killed, in April, the two of them gambled money in a gambling hall in Beicheng, lost red eyes, on the grounds of fraud in the gambling hall, made a big fuss in the gambling hall, killed three gambling house thugs, injured seventeen people, because of their identity as a disciple of the fairy pavilion, no one dared to arrest, just lost three thousand taels of silver.
In May, in Sanssouci Building, he was jealous of the British princess, by the way, that is, in order to compete for the opportunity to comb the cage of the smoke girl, he fought with the son of the British prince, and both were defeated, but they killed a scholar of the son of the British prince, and finally was punished by the fairy pavilion for being grounded for half a month"
"So according to our investigation, King Xin, the son of the British Gong, and the North City Gambling House, are the most suspicious"
After Jiang Cheng summarized the information, he said it one by one, and everyone looked at each other, good guy, Jiang Cheng is going to turn the sky upside down, and the suspects are getting bigger than the other.
"Jiang Cheng, according to your investigation method, we Tsing Yiwei are self-defeating, which of us can afford to offend?"
"Lord Qianhu, that gambling house in the north city"
"It was opened by the North Town Fu Envoy and some adults, and I still can't afford to offend."
Du Wen said angrily, the Qinglou gambling hall in Yongdu City, which has no backer behind it, has long since closed down.
"My lord, I don't dare to check, then we are the only ones who carry the black pot, and tomorrow will only be nine days"
A Tsing Yi guard reminded that they were unwilling to carry the black pot, they couldn't find out, and they were the ones who were unlucky.
"I know, but Jiang Cheng, it's not appropriate for King Xin to be listed as a suspect, King Xin didn't have a conflict with them, if the two of them hated King Xin, it would be right."
"No, there is a contradiction, they said a lot of rebellious things after they got drunk, and it was about the saints, so I just didn't say it"
Jiang Cheng replied that the reason why King Xin was listed was because these two goods scolded a lot of King Xin's words after they got drunk, and there was also content about the battle for the throne, which probably meant that King Xin deserved to fight for the Holy Lord.
Everyone's faces changed, and they felt more and more numb on their scalps, with so much content, they couldn't eat any one and walk around.
"Let's do this for today, let me go back and think about it"
Du Wen panicked, he didn't dare to listen to Jiang Cheng anymore, he still went back and thought about it, and to see which one could afford to offend, he would check which one first.
Everyone dispersed, and on the way back, the three fathers and sons of the Jiang family also discussed for a while, and finally found that this case had gone out of the scope of ordinary homicide cases, and had already become a political event.
"It's hell mode at the beginning"
Jiang Cheng sighed in his heart, as soon as he crossed over, it was a treasure case, and he finally escaped by mistake, and there was another assassination case, the matter was even bigger, why didn't he come to a few little thieves to arrest him?
······
Early the next morning, the three fathers and sons of the Jiang family went out to go to work in the public building, but as soon as they went out, they found that there were a few strangers at the door of their homes.
"Be careful"
Jiang Wu clenched the knife in his hand and looked at those people with a cold expression.
"Be careful with your size, put the knife away"
"Daddy"
"That's the people in the palace of the king, look at the embroidery marks on their bodies, do you want to find death?"
Jiang Yong immediately stopped Jiang Wu, Jiang Wu didn't know it, but Jiang Yong knew it, he remembered clearly how many big people there were in Yongdu City, and he couldn't afford to offend it.
"It should be that we leaked the news last night, don't be afraid, I'll talk about it"
Jiang Cheng thought for a while and said, there are probably no secrets in Kyoto like Yongdu City, and one night, it is enough for their words to spread, and there are many people who are secretly concerned about this case.
"Don't be nervous, take me to meet your family"
Jiang Cheng walked to one of them, saw that he was a little nervous, and hurriedly said, the man asked several other people with his eyes, and finally left a sentence of "follow me", and then turned around and left.
At the corner of the street, a carriage stopped there, and the man whispered a few words in the carriage, and then asked Jiang Cheng to get into the carriage, and a middle-aged man was sitting inside.
"Jiang Xiaoqi is admirable in terms of courage and reaction"
"I don't know what adults call me"
"The head of the Xinwang Mansion, Shi Gongsun Li"
"It turned out to be Lord Gongsun, and the lower officials have seen Lord Gongsun"
"You're welcome, Master Jiang"
"Don't dare"
"Do you know why I'm looking for you?"
"You shouldn't have come to kill me"
"Why do you think that the palace of the king of faith will not dare to kill you?"
"Because of killing me, even if King Xin didn't kill Lin Xinwen, they would have killed them."
Jiang Cheng shrugged, he felt that this long history was very stupid, and he shouldn't have jumped out at all, what is the identity of King Xin, the most powerful contender before the Holy Lord's accession to the throne, so after the Holy Lord ascended the throne, he was suspicious of him, and constantly suppressed, and turned a virtuous king into a mediocre king who was addicted to wine.
"It is said that Tsing Yi Wei Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon, is true, a small flag official has such knowledge"
"Xiaguan is talking nonsense, don't be surprised, adults"
"I came to you, it was indeed a miscalculation, it was my concern that caused chaos, Jiang Xiaoqi, now the old man begs you for something"
"Speak, Adult"
"Don't investigate the king, as for the reason, you are so clever that you should know"
"Yes, actually, I thought about it last night, King Shin is indeed not a murderer, it's completely unnecessary, right?"
"It's comfortable to chat with smart people, and the old man won't treat you badly, after this matter is over, no matter what, it will save your family's life"
"Ahem, don't, adults, you're not protecting my family, you're harming my family."
Jiang Cheng hurriedly said, this long history has no brains, he dares to say this to the outside world, that is, the death of the three members of the Jiang family is coming, and they can't afford to be responsible for the guilt of colluding with the prince.
"That's right, it's the old man Meng Lang, the old man owes you a favor"
"Thank you, sir."
"Gone"
After Changshi said a word, Jiang Cheng stepped out of the carriage, and soon found that the strangers around him had left, and the carriage had disappeared into the street corner.
"Second brother, what's going on?"
"Just an old servant who cares about chaos"
“?”
"The chief of the Xinwang Mansion, I hope I don't aim at the king of Xin"
"Is it a thief?"
Jiang Wu said a word, Jiang Cheng gave him a pitiful look, yes, this is also a guy who has no sensitivity at all, if King Xin is a thief, they would have died last night, okay.
"Da Lang, don't talk nonsense, this matter is up to Erlang"
Jiang Yong glared at Jiang Wu, he now knew that this matter was not something they could understand, so he pinned his hopes on this son who suddenly opened his mind.
When the three of them came to the public building of Fusi in Nancheng Town, a group of Tsing Yi guards looked at the three of them with strange eyes, and they didn't dare to talk to them, they all avoided them, and now they have become plague gods.
The three of them went to the bookstore to sign the charge, and then went to find Qianhu Du Wen, who appeared in front of them with a pair of panda eyes, obviously not sleeping all night.
"The people of the King's Mansion are looking for you?"
"Uncle Du, is the news spreading so quickly?"
"We received the news when the people from the palace appeared at your door"
"Big trouble?"
"Yes, as soon as I came, someone handed me a note, and someone wanted us to put it on King Xin"
"We can't say yes, or we'll die a terrible death"
"You don't know."
Du Wen said angrily, this kind of politics and governance are trapped, there is no strong background, and those who dare to touch it are dead and have no place to be buried, he just wants to survive now.
"That's okay, and I've thought about it, King Xin's suspicion can be ruled out, and he won't be a murderer"
"I said yesterday, King Xin is cautious now, how dare he kill someone, Jiang Cheng, you say, what should I do now, if we don't deal with it, this matter will be beyond our control"
"Stop, this case will not be investigated for the time being, before this messy relationship is straightened out, the more we investigate, the faster we will die"
"Okay, I'll go see the Pacification Envoy, I hope the Lord can withstand the pressure, otherwise someone will force us to continue investigating"
Du Wen nodded, he also agreed, don't check it first, let the pacification envoy solve the upper pressure first, otherwise how they check it will be a dead word.
