Contrary to the rumors, Wei Yulang looks gentle and elegant, and he is not at all the fierce and evil appearance of the legendary gods.

Especially age, it is not as big as imagined.

He was only 51 years old at the time, and he was not yet a year old this year.

The sideburns are like a knife, the long beard is elegant, the plump and handsome, and the appearance is dignified.

Some people say that when he was young, he was taken by a foreign princess and almost became a horse, but unfortunately because of his background, he was beaten by a stick in the end.

However, this dignified face has no luster at the moment.

When Xu Zhen saw Wei Yulang in the pavilion in the back garden of the Wei Mansion, he saw that Wei Yulang's face was full of sadness, gloomy clouds, and the whole person seemed to be numb.

In the back garden, in addition to Wei Yulang, there are also Mrs. Wei, maids and servants, family guards, etc., there are twenty or thirty people.

In the gazebo, there was a young and strong man who was beaten and covered in blood.

The man had his hands tied behind his back, and a bloody dagger was dropped on the ground in front of him, as well as a lot of gold, silver, and jewelry.

This......

Seeing such a scene, the county commander Song Zhili and the county commander Chen Houlu secretly breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that the murderer had been caught.

Now that the murderer has been caught, the yamen only needs to deal with follow-up matters and routine matters.

Unlike Qiu Batian, Wei Yulang was a member of the officialdom after all, and when he saw the county commander and the county official present, he still greeted him politely and prepared two seats for him.

It's just that because he was too sad, Wei Yulang didn't say too much greetings, but directly asked the housekeeper to tell the details of the case:

Today is the day of Xuanjiao's prayer, and the third lady Wei Yingying was going to go to Ziyang Palace with Mrs. Wei to pray for blessings, but when the maids went to call Miss Wei, Miss Wei said that she didn't want to go!

Miss Wei has always been willful, so Mrs. Wei had no choice but to give up and go to Ziyang Palace alone.

Unexpectedly, at the beginning of the morning, when the maids went to prepare to serve Miss Wei to get up and wash, they found that Miss Wei had been stabbed several times and fell in a pool of blood, and she had already lost her breath!

The house was also turned over and a lot of jewelry was lost.

Knowing that Miss Wei had been killed in her own room, the servants and nurses were all frightened, and hurriedly went to Wanhualou to call Wei Yulang, and at the same time went to Ziyang Palace to call Mrs. Wei back.

When Wei Yulang learned that his beloved daughter had died tragically at home, he was naturally furious and immediately launched an investigation.

Speaking of which, today is also negligence, the nurses thought that Miss Wei went to Ziyang Palace to incense, so they didn't care too much about Miss Wei's boudoir, which led to no one seeing who had been to Miss Wei's boudoir.

However, the guards all said that their patrols of the entire Wei Mansion were seamless, and it was absolutely impossible for foreign thieves to come in.

As a result, Wei Yulang immediately conducted a comprehensive search of the Wei Mansion.

As a result, the search had just begun, and significant discoveries were made.

Someone saw the servant Ah Sheng's panicked expression, so he reported to Wei Yulang. Wei Yulang immediately sent someone to search Ah Sheng's residence, and soon found the stolen jewelry and belongings in his package.

At the same time, a bloody dagger was found under his mattress, and the blood on the dagger had not even dried up at that time......

This Ah Sheng is the young man kneeling in the pavilion at this moment.

He was one of the earliest servants of the Wei Mansion, and he had been working in the mansion since he was fifteen years old, and he had always been diligent, hardworking, and never had any problems.

“…… So, it is very likely that this is the case," the butler continued, "Ah Sheng mistakenly thought that Miss Wei was going to incense today, so he sneaked into her room to commit theft.

"Unexpectedly, Miss Wei bumped into the house, and Ah Sheng panicked, so he killed Miss Wei by mistake......"

"I ...... I'm ...... No, no, no...... It's really not......" I don't know if he was frightened or stuttered, Ah Sheng defended, "Wrong...... Wronged ......"

"This ......" Song Zhili was so shrewd, seeing this situation, he already understood what Wei Yulang meant, so he looked at Wei Yulang and tested his tone, "Wei Sicheng, you see ......"

"Lord Song, alas, ......" Wei Yulang sighed blankly, pointed at Ah Sheng and said, "I still understand this kid's temperament, otherwise he wouldn't have been in my Wei Mansion for so many years."

"No matter how stupid he is, he won't put the stolen goods in his package and press the murder weapon under the bed after killing someone, right?"

"Oh......" Song Zhili frowned slightly, only then did he understand that the case was not simple, and immediately nodded and said, "From this point of view, this is a frame-up?" ”

"And," Wei Yulang's eyes flashed with fierceness, "This just shows that the real murderer is in the mansion, in the ......" he pointed to the people present, "among these people!! ”

Hearing Wei Yulang's words, everyone present was terrified and frightened.

"Old ...... Master...... Yingying Yingying Yingying ......" Ah Sheng kowtowed to Wei Yulang, and under the excitement, the word "Ming" in the back couldn't be said.

"Lord Song," Wei Yulang said heavily, "If you decide the case, you are still professional, and then I will leave it to you!" Little...... You can't die in vain! ”

Wei Yulang's words were hidden in the needle, and it was clearly putting pressure on Song Zhili.

"Yes, yes......" Song Zhili hurriedly agreed, but he was obviously unsure in his heart.

"Do you think," Wei Yulang added, "about the same before dark?" ”

"Huh? This ......" Song Zhili frowned, he didn't expect Wei Yulang to set a time limit for himself.

With such a tricky case, it's hard to say whether it can be solved before dark.

However, afraid of Wei Yulang's power, he couldn't attack, so he had to look at the county Cheng Chen Houlu as if asking for help.

"Wei Sicheng......" Chen Houlu hurriedly swore an oath, "Don't worry, this is the duty of our yamen, and we will do our best to find the murderer and seek justice for Miss Wei!" ”

Chen Houlu is also experienced, and what he says is all about the scene, neither offending Wei Yulang, nor making it clear that the case will be solved, leaving a way out for himself and the county order.

"Okay, since that's the case, then please two adults!" Wei Yulang said, "I have ordered someone to blockade the entire Wei Mansion, and I will not let anyone escape." If you have any needs, Wei will also fully cooperate...... Oh......"

As he spoke, Wei Yulang suddenly covered his heart, as if his heart was not very comfortable.

"Quick!" Seeing this, Mrs. Wei hurriedly greeted her slaves and maids, "Go and get the master's medicine!"

"Master......" she persuaded with concern, "you better go back to your room and rest, but don't cause an old disease!" ”

As she spoke, she made a gesture of support, wanting to help Wei Yulang leave.

Oops?

Who knows, after seeing this Mrs. Wei, Xu Zhen's attention was immediately attracted to it.

Unexpectedly, this Mrs. Wei turned out to be a foreigner!

But seeing that Mrs. Wei was tall, with delicate facial features and sharp edges, her eyes turned out to be a rare turquoise blue. Although the skin is slightly darker, it is graceful and charming, and she is definitely an exotic beauty.

Won't it ...... Xu Zhen secretly wondered, could this Mrs. Wei be the foreign princess who fell in love with Wei Yulang back then?

"No," at this time, Wei Yulang ruthlessly pushed Mrs. Wei away, and then said fiercely, "I want to see with my own eyes, who is the murderer who killed Yingying!?" ”

……

Soon, Song Zhili and Chen Houlu summoned the people from the yamen to the side and began to arrange the investigation.

"Zuo," Song Zhili said to one of the arresters, "You go and call Zuo to come over for an autopsy!" ”

"Yes." The catcher hurried to receive his life.

"Lord Song," Chen Houlu prompted, "since the murderer is for money, then we can start with the financial situation of these people." ”

"Yes," Song Zhili agreed, but at the same time expressed concern, "Alas, there are so many people, when will this be investigated?" ”

So, after thinking about it carefully, he still said to Xu Zhen: "There is no way to do it now, Xu Zhen, you still go and call Cheng Zhutou and Chen Tiefeng and them over!" ”

"My lord," who knows, Xu Zhen said lightly, "I think, there is no need to be so troublesome, right?" I guess I already know who's the killer! ”

"Oh," Song Zhili sighed absentmindedly, and only after that, did he come back to his senses, and suddenly asked with wide eyes, "You...... What did you say? ”

……
