Chapter 0080: New Clues
The fire in Wushun Mansion was not extinguished in the end, and Wushun Mansion, which covers an area of eighty acres, was burned to the ground, and all the clues were burned clean in this fire.
At night, in the Wannian County Pavilion, Lai Junchen was quite bored, and paced back and forth in the room with his hands in his hands.
In fact, until now, he has not figured out why the Holy Lord sent him to investigate this case of relics, it stands to reason that the true and false relics have been revealed, so what is the need to investigate further?
The grievances and grievances between the Wu family and the Li family are like that, everyone in the world knows it, is it because the saint is unhappy that the Li family has obtained the true relics, and what kind of incident will he provoke?
Lai Junchen is a very intelligent person, calm, alert, and very capable, he feels that things are not so simple, and the Holy Lord asked him to investigate the relics case, which must have another deep meaning.
This matter must not be hastily closed just because Wushun Mansion was burned, and he must continue to investigate.
But...... Where does he start?
At this moment, he suddenly heard the sound of breaking the sky, Lai Junchen was startled, and with a quick flash, a crossbow arrow shot in from the window, passed by, and hit the wooden pillar behind him.
Lai Junchen was furious, jumped on the window, and saw a clear moon outside the window, the moon was as bright as silver, and there was silence all around, without any suspicious traces.
Lai Junchen turned back and stared at the crossbow arrow, there was a letter stuck in the crossbow arrow, he slowly walked back to the room, pulled out the crossbow arrow, took down the text message inserted in the crossbow arrow, opened the text message, and there was only one sentence in it, 'Relic case, Xuanyangfang Dunhuang wine shop Lan Zhenning'.
Lai Junchen frowned, what does this sentence mean, could it be that this Lan Zhenning is related to the relics case?
Also, who shot the text message, and why did you sue him for this clue?
He pondered for a moment, and no matter who told him for clues, he was now at a loss, first check it out and then talk about it, Lai Junchen immediately shouted: "Everyone gather, go to Xuanyang Fang immediately!"
Evening was originally the best time for the business of various wine shops, and the Dunhuang wine shop in Xuanyangfang was no exception.
But at this time, the Dunhuang wine shop seems to have had a little change, all the wine customers were kicked out of the wine shop, two wine customers who wanted to judge were beaten half to death, thrown down from the second floor, all the wine customers were frightened and scattered, and the door of the wine shop was slammed shut.
Dozens of orchids and bartenders from the liquor store were driven to the third floor.
The table in the lobby on the second floor was piled aside, and Lai Junchen sat on a stool, staring coldly at Lan Zhenning, the proprietor in front of him.
Lan Zhenning was hung upside down in the lobby on the second floor, his head was about three feet above the ground, his face was swollen into the color of pig liver due to the blood gushing, and his two faces were drawn into pig heads, with a look of fear in his eyes.
Lai Junchen fiddled with a sharp knife in his hand, with a cold smile on his face, "I don't have that much patience, I'll sue you, if you say another word that makes me unhappy, I'll cut a piece of your flesh, I'll start asking now." ”
"I want to ask about the relics of Wushun Mansion, do you know?"
Lan Zhenning shook his head, and suddenly, nodded violently, Lai Junchen snorted coldly, "At noon today, Wushun Mansion was burned by a fire, do you know who did it?"
Lan Zhenning hesitated and shook his head, but saw a flash of cold light, Lan Zhenning landed on one ear, blood gushed out, and Lan Zhenning suddenly howled like a pig.
"At noon today, Wushun Mansion was burned down, do you know who did it?" asked Lai Junchen coldly and repeatedly.
"It's my brother who set the fire, it's Lan Zhenyu, I say! I'll say anything!"
Lai Junchen has seen too much, this kind of person doesn't cry when he doesn't see the coffin, and one ear is not enough to completely defeat him, he asked coldly: "Some people say that Wu Shun committed suicide, some people say that he was murdered, how did he die?"
"It's murder, it's a murder named Li Zhen, no! he didn't kill it, ah-"
The cold light flashed again, Lan Zhenning hit the ground with another ear, blood flowed all over his face, Lan Zhenning cried and screamed, unable to say a word.
Lai Junchen walked to the window with his hands in his hands and coldly ordered: "Stop the bleeding for him and strip him naked!"
Several subordinates quickly stopped Lan Zhenning's bleeding, put him down, stripped him naked, tied his hands and feet, and lay on the table, Lan Zhenning's heart was even more frightened, he felt like a lamb to the slaughter.
At this time, his belief had completely collapsed, and he knew his brother Lan Zhenyu very well in his heart, that is, he had brought endless disasters to himself.
Lai Junchen slowly walked in front of him, and the knife was swept in his hand, "You go on! ”
Lan Zhenning couldn't help but put his legs together, and said in a trembling voice: "Lan Zhenyu came back at noon today, although he didn't say it, but I can guess that Wushun Mansion was set on fire by him, because my sister was forced to death by the people of the Wushun family." ”
"What does Lan Zhenyu have to do with relics?"
"Wushun sent Lan Zhenyu to the Western Regions to compete for the relics, but was disturbed by Li Zhen, and the relics were obtained by Wang Yuanbao, and later Wushun forced Li Zhen to regain the relics, and Li Zhen gave him a shadow relic, these are what my brother said. ”
"That's right, cooperate with me honestly, I won't hurt you, I came to Junchen is a principled person, never kill honest people, haven't you heard?"
When Lan Zhenning heard that the other party turned out to be the cool official Lai Junchen who had changed the color of the Tang Dynasty, he was immediately frightened and incontinent, and fainted on the spot.
Lai Junchen shook his head in disgust, and said to the left and right: "Clean him up, put on his clothes and explain." ”
Lan Zhenning didn't dare to take chances anymore, so he explained what he knew as it was.
Only then did Lai Junchen know that the relics case was so complicated, and there was also an inexplicable Li Zhen, who turned out to be an unknown Dunhuang minor, which made him even more confused.
He paced back and forth with his hands behind his back, and from Lan Zhenning's current explanation, this matter should be over, and as a result, he also knew that Li Dan got the real relics, and Wu Chengsi got the fake relics, so what else is worth digging into this case?
After thinking about it, he focused on Lan Zhenyu and Li Zhen, if there is any story, it should be on these two.
Thinking of this, he asked again: "What is your brother Lan Zhenyu doing in Luoyang?"
"He's here to get something, which was stolen from Wushun by my sister before, and she is Wushun's favorite concubine. ”
Lai Junchen's heart moved, and he asked, "What is it?"
"It seems to be a letter, I don't know the specific content, after my sister committed suicide by poisoning, this letter has been placed with me, I dare not read it. ”
"Who wrote the letter, you should know, say it quickly!"
"It seems to be...... Letter from the King of Wei to Wushun. ”
Lai Junchen became more and more interested, he peeled off the cocoon, and he gradually showed a little clue, but it was not enough, Lan Zhenyu got the letter and burned Wushun Mansion, obviously just to hide people's eyes.
And that fish dragon shouted to keep the study, it is likely that he was also looking for this letter, what is the content of this letter?
Lai Junchen lowered his head and pondered silently, perhaps Lan Zhenning wanted to save his life, and added tremblingly: "Lan Zhenyu has returned to Luoyang, and when he left, he repeatedly told me to dig up my sister's body and burn it." ”
"Why?"
"I don't know, he just said. My sister is highly poisonous, and she will die if she touches it, so let me be careful. ”
Lai Junchen frowned, he suddenly thought of something, and asked urgently, "What will your sister look like after she dies?"
"Golden and stiff as a stone. ”
Lai Junchen stood up and slapped his forehead again and again, he finally understood that Lan Zhenyu's sister had the same poison as the monk Yunxuan, indicating that the source of this poison was Lan Zhenyu, and Lan Zhenyu was Wu Shun's henchman, could it be that the poison scripture case was related to Wu Chenghe?
A cold sweat broke out on Lai Junchen's back, he turned around and grabbed Lan Zhenning, and said viciously: "Where is your sister's room? Take me immediately!"
Lan Zhenning has three brothers and sisters, Lan Zhenning, Lan Zhenyu and Lan Yier, of which Lan Yier became Wushun's favorite concubine after being dedicated to Wushun by her second brother Lan Zhenyu.
Originally, Lan Yier was five months pregnant, and after Wu Shun's death, his family killed the fetus in her womb in order to fight for property, and drove her out of Wushun Mansion, Lan Yier committed suicide by poisoning in grief and anger.
Lan Yi'er's temporary room was in the backyard of the Dunhuang wine store, and the room was temporarily sealed after her death.
At this time, Lai Junchen searched carefully in the room, and he quickly found a porcelain vial about an inch large from the corner of the bed, the cork of the vial was pulled out and it was empty, Lai Junchen deduced that Lan Yier just drank the poison in the vial and died.
Soon, Lai Junchen found an identical porcelain vial in Lan Yier's dressing box, and the mouth of the bottle was sealed with wax.
Lai Junchen immediately ordered his subordinates to catch a dog, he used this dog to test the poison, sure enough, the dog immediately fell to the ground and died, turning golden all over, Lai Junchen and his subordinates were so frightened that they retreated.
Lai Junchen carefully put away the poison bottle, wiped the cold sweat on his forehead, and secretly thought in his heart, "Lan Yi'er should have stolen the poison from Wu Shun, Lan Zhenyu would never give this poison to his sister." ’
Lai Junchen finally realized that the problem was strict, and Wu Chengji did it if he didn't get the poison case, and he framed it for Di Renjie.
What's more, I'm afraid that the Holy Lord is also a little suspicious of this matter, so he let himself come to Chang'an to investigate the case, is this the real intention of the Holy Lord to send himself to Chang'an to investigate the Relic case?
A bottle of poison alone can't explain the problem, the key is the letter on Lan Zhenyu's body, which is a handwritten letter from Wu Chengsi to Wu Shun, I'm afraid that letter is the evidence of the entire poison scripture case.
Lai Junchen quickly straightened out his thoughts, his next step was to rush back to Luoyang to catch Lan Zhenyu and get the letter, and Wu Chenghe's side he also had to remind him first, which could be regarded as an explanation for him to the Wu family.
He immediately whispered an order to one of his subordinates: "Take a few brothers to burn Lan Yi'er's body, and then get this Lan Zhenning outside the city to kill it, and make it cleaner." ”
"Yes!"
The subordinates hurriedly went, and Lai Junchen summoned another henchman, pointed to the poisoned dog and said: "Give this dog to Yu Pinlong, and tell him that this dog was dug up from Wushun Mansion." ”
After arranging the funeral, Lai Junchen immediately turned over and got on his horse, did not stop in Chang'an, and led his subordinates back to Luoyang overnight
