Chapter 199: He was expected
Sending Xu Jian away, Gonggong Cao returned to the palace, did not hide it at all, and told the matter.
The saint frowned again and again when he heard this.
It's normal for Shan Shen to suspect anyone.
The yamen handled the case, and I didn't dare to doubt it, and I didn't dare to think about it, how could I solve the case?
Shan Shen has been in charge of Shuntian Mansion for many years, except for occasional situations, most of the time, he is very competent.
Such an experienced official, Su Ke was suspected as soon as the case was spread, which shows how bad the impression this person's previous actions left on Shuntianfu.
And to raise such a son, Xu Guogong, as a father, has a great responsibility.
Speaking of which, these children of official families in the capital have been ...... recently
The Zhu family copied it, and didn't say it.
The girls raised by Yunyang Bofu successively calculated the Ning'an sisters.
Liu Jing's son is also very disagreeable, and his knowledge is a mess.
"I thought," the saint took a sip of tea and whispered to Gong Cao, "If this matter is really done by that kid from the Duke of Xu's mansion, he must be sentenced more heavily, and he will also give other princes and uncles a reminder."
One by one, relying on the merits of their ancestors, they inherited the glory, but they didn't do anything!
If you go on like this, you will raise a bunch of squiggles, like what words!
Gonggong Cao sighed in his heart.
The saint is going to kill the chickens and make an example of the monkeys.
All afternoon, in Shuntian Mansion, I was busy up and down without touching the ground.
Investigating the case again, and promoting the placement of candidates, as well as the affairs that had to be completed before the year before the pile, Shan Shen was so busy that he couldn't even take a sip of tea.
On the contrary, Xu Jian was very idle.
Xu Jian drank tea and used two mouthfuls of snacks, but he still "did his best" to share a little worry for Master Shan within the scope of his understanding, which allowed Shan Shen to spare time, stuff two mouthfuls of hot buns at dinner, mum a bowl of hot soup, and listen to the people below report things by the way.
And this case went even more smoothly than Shan Shen expected.
The officials found the chariot and horse shop.
When it comes to going out of the city, the owner may not be able to match the number, after all, the guests may not be telling the truth.
But when it comes to carrying buckets, some guys come out and pour bitter water.
"What a lack of morality! Yesterday we were late to send it back, we saw the spirit of the horse, and the car was driving normally, so we took the car and waited for it to be cleaned up early in the morning. How do you know that when I look at it in the morning, the carriage has been stained with water, the bottom is frozen, the cold has not melted all night, and the pillow is also icy, hard! We hurriedly packed up, and we almost delayed business!"
Looking through the account book again, the person who rented the car was a young man named Bao Wei, who pressed his handprint.
According to the borrowed time, he went to the city gate to guard and asked for some information.
Approaching the end of the year, the city gate was strictly questioned.
Originally, renting a car to go out of the city would not attract attention, but the handlebar type of a rented carriage was someone from Xu Guogong's mansion.
"There have been two quarrels before, others are subordinates of the Guogong Mansion, and the one who is arrogant and arrogant, and the little one remembers his face. Yesterday, I saw him in charge of a rented car, and the little one whispered to joke with people that he had committed a crime and was kicked out of the house by the Guogong Mansion, and could only go to the carriage and horse shop to find a living.
There was no one in the car, there were several empty buckets, and the small one asked, and he said to go up the mountain to fetch water.
It is not surprising that people in the city who are more particular about it often go outside the city to fetch spring water and streams.
But then less than a quarter of an hour, another carriage from the Duke of Xu's Mansion went out of the city, and on the carriage was their third son."
After listening to the officer's return, Shan Shen laughed angrily.
Sure enough, it was Su Ke, and he really expected it!
Although he was preconceived, the process of investigating the case was carried out step by step, and it was the testimony that moved the "Xu Guo Mansion" out, not induced by him.
You said that Su Ke is exquisite, a bunch of clues for people to catch, and he doesn't know how to tidy up for others when he changes cars.
You say he doesn't pay attention to it at all, he still knows how to change cars when he goes out of town!
Shan Shen thought about it for a while and asked the officer, "Then can Bao Wei find out?" Inquire more."
The officials were in great difficulty.
The capital is so big, how to find it
?
Xu Jian pondered for a while, and then suggested, "Go to the gambling house in the area of West Avenue and ask, maybe someone will recognize you."
Hearing this, the official looked at Shan Shen.
Shan Shen's thoughts were fast, and he immediately understood Xu Jian's train of thought.
Half a year ago, where did Su Ke wander around every day?
Swallow Lane, Xiaorou Hutong, Willow Hutong, Daozi Hutong......
The liveliest connection to them is West Main Street.
When Su Ke was messing with those men and women, where could the little guy go to pass the time?
Occasionally, the teahouse sits, and most of the time, it must be the gambling house that attracts young, ignorant little guys.
I have mixed up a lot, and I know some people from three religions and nine ranks, especially the same gamblers, and they can do things by giving money.
Sure enough, in just half an hour, the official brought Bao Wei back.
"When the little ones arrived, he was shaking the dice in it, and it was not hard to find him!"
Shan Shen asked Bao Wei to press a handprint, and compared it with the one that the carriage and horse dealer got back, it was the same person.
"What did you borrow the car for yesterday?" Shan Shen asked.
Bao Wei sloppily said, "Can't the villain borrow a car?"
Shan Shen has a lot of things, and the most annoying person who wastes his work is directly handed over to the master: "Give me the result directly after asking."
"I'll ask for Master Shan," Xu Jian said, "With Master by my side, I'm not afraid that someone will say that I will ask for a confession."
Shan Shen trusted Xu Jian very much and laughed at his joke.
The servant brought the man next door.
Xu Jian said, "The car you borrowed was loaded with dead people, do you know?"
The master's hand holding the pen shook.
Bao Wei trembled more than the master: "What? Dead person? Impossible!"
"Otherwise, what would the yamen do to you?" Xu Jian said, "There is a smell in the car, where did you put the dead man?" ap.
Bao Wei shouted, "It's not me, the villain, I don't! I'll borrow a car for someone!"
"You are so bold, you don't know what other people are for, you dare to rent a car for him?" Xu Jian shook his head again and again.
Bao Wei cried and mourned: "Oh, the villain didn't think much about it! I thought he would pretend to be a few little ladies at most, but how did he know that he would pretend to be dead! Or did he play it this time and kill people?"
Xu Jian continued to ask, "Who?"
"The errand man next to the third prince of the Xuguo Mansion is called Shi Jie, and they all call him Shishi, and he said that their son wants to borrow two cars, let the villain do a favor, and give ten taels as a benefit, and the villain will borrow it."
Xu Jian listened to him and sorted out a confession for him: "You met the one called 'Stone' in the gambling house before, and he asked you to help borrow a car for Su Sangongzi, you borrowed it yesterday and returned it yesterday, right?"
Bao Wei hung his head: "That's right, that's what happened. The villain borrowed the car for him, and knew nothing else."
The master looked at Bao Wei, then at Xu Jian, and wrote his confession on the paper without saying a word.
is still the grandfather of the country who is neat.
If they ask the case like this, they will have to be referred to by the old-fashioned people and say that he is "not authentic" and "not exquisite".
