With the case in his heart, Yeats got up early the next day, and after going to the toilet, Mingzhu and Pearl pushed the door in, "Lord Ye-"

One holds toiletries in his hand, and the other holds the regular clothes he wants to wear today.

Yeats found that the one in Pearl's hand was not the one she wore yesterday, the summer weather was hot, as a modern person, she must have to change her clothes every day, but the conditions of the temporary guest house yesterday did not allow it, I didn't expect it......

Yeats patted his cheek, and he had to find a suitable opportunity to return the money for his clothes.

"Thank you, sisters." After washing up, Yeats left the room.

In the corridor, Teng Zhutou happened to be washed, and he said, "Lord Du went back last night, and he went directly to Dali in the morning, what about us?" ”

Yeats said, "Let's go and ask where May's husband is buried." ”

"Okay."

Downstairs, Uncle Qin and Xiao Quanzi were already waiting in the living room.

Co-author, she didn't get up early.

Yeats was a little embarrassed, quietly swept around, didn't find Pei Da, secretly relieved, she just wanted to say something, found that Mingzhu and Pearl were upstairs and didn't come out of the room, she realized that Teng Zhutou didn't find anyone coming to serve her just now.

It's like the KGB.

Yeats beckoned everyone to breakfast.

After breakfast, everyone immediately went into action to investigate the matter of Mei's husband.

Half a day passed, but I didn't even ask about anything.

Mrs. Wang is the most familiar with the Mei family, knows the Mei family best, and basically provides useful information about the Mei family.

Thirty years ago, after the palace turmoil, the south flooded and the north drought, many people fled to the capital and settled in the capital, the Mei family is one of them, built the simplest shed on the side of the moat, in order to make a living, the flexible old man Mei started a merchant business, with the easing of the disaster, Emperor Shunchang, people's lives are getting better and better.

The old man of the Mei family also became the shopkeeper from the burden of the merchant with a fixed shop, and the family also moved from the river to a small courtyard in the alley in the south of the city, giving birth to children, and the small life is thriving.

Mrs. Mei gave birth to several children, but only two survived, an elder brother, and the youngest daughter, Mei's family, she was the youngest daughter of the Mei family, and she was also favored by her family in ancient patriarchal times.

Some people know pets, life is better, some people don't know what to do, and they always feel that they get these as a matter of course, a good hand of cards, because of the perverse and willful temper and play badly.

Of course, Mei will definitely not tell Mrs. Wang about the second half, she only said that her family is favored, so she was deceived out of the capital by a man who is ignorant of the world, and lived a hard life for a long time, until her son was six or seven years old before she found a chance to escape and return to the capital.

"After returning to Beijing, will she walk around with her mother's family?" Yeats asked.

Mrs. Wang shook her head, "Mei said that Mrs. Mei and his wife have passed away, her honest brother also fell ill more than ten years ago, and her sister-in-law married for the second time, and she has no family to leave." ”

Yeats asked again: "When you met May, her husband ......"

"I haven't seen him, but I don't know if he's dead or not?"

"You mean, his husband isn't dead?"

Mrs. Wang thought about it carefully, "I haven't heard Mei say that she is dead, and I haven't heard her say that she is not dead, and I don't know." ”

"So what do you talk about together every day?" Teng Chong was depressed and couldn't help but rush.

Mrs. Wang's face was blue and white for a while, but the civilians dared to give the official a face, so they had to laugh, "After being reminded by the adults, the women think about it, it is really like this, we have told the ancestors of the eighteen generations, how the Mei family was deceived by men, how she has lived outside for more than ten years, she really hasn't said a word." ”

Yeats's criminal profile has 'coaxed people around,' and Mei did.

"So what now?" Teng Chong was anxious.

The son has the mother's surname, what is the relationship between Mei and the child's father?

Was Mei's evil formed by being forced to be helpless, or was she evil by nature and was stimulated when she encountered conditions?

The 10 dismemberment cases began one after another three years ago, but what happened three years ago?

Mrs. Wang thought for a while and said, "It doesn't seem to be anything special." ”

Her daughter-in-law interjected on the side, "Three years ago, his son Mei Zongbao entered the Guozijian and became a student. ”

In ancient times, when he became a student of the country's eunuchs, even if he was bad in the end, he could mix with a small official when he came out, and he would be free of food and clothing for a lifetime.

Wait a minute...... Yeats had a flash of inspiration.

"Teng Zhutou, a few days ago, when you registered as a little lady who went away, was there a sick middle-aged man who asked you to help find your son?"

He nodded, "Well, he also said that three years ago, his son had obviously been admitted to the Guozijian, but he left a letter saying that he was going to study abroad, saying that it was more meaningful than reading a dead book." ”

Thinking of a possibility, Yeats was a little excited, "Let's go to the Guozijian." "Let's get on the little donkey and go to the national prison.

After not going back for two days in a row, Ye He was not at ease, so he asked his concubine Ye Lan to find Dali Temple, and heard that she was handling the case here, so she brought the little donkey over and asked him to go home at night.

Teng Chong also rode on his horse and walked alongside him, "Junior Brother Ye, what did you think of?" ”

"Just conjecture." Yeats pulled the donkey's rope and longed to fly to the Prison.

An hour later, when they arrived at Guozijian, it happened that the students inside were having lunch, and Teng Chong rushed directly to the Guozijian master Bo with a big knife and the identity card of Dali Temple to investigate the case.

Yeats bowed and asked, "Sir, three years ago, was a place vacated because of a scholar's study tour, and then a scholar not far from his house made up for the place?" ”

The head of the Guozi Prison Bo carefully recalled, "There is such a thing. ”

Teng Chong understood, the first person to be dismembered by the Mei family was this fifteen or sixteen-year-old boy, who was a trick to deceive people if he didn't study or not.

"Thank you, sir."

Out of the National Prison, Yeats couldn't calm down in her heart, she suppressed her emotions, "The identities of the remaining nine people are not difficult to confirm." ”

Teng Chong nodded, "I will immediately take my brothers to register all the people who have gone out in the past three years." ”

"Also, collect all the letters of the runaways."

"Understood."

"And ......" Yeats stretched out his hand to cover his heart and wanted to vomit, "Recently, the people who bought the meat of the Mei family and were reluctant to eat the gizzard meat for the Midyear Festival, did you go to find it?" ”

Teng Chong instantly understood what he meant, his stomach churned, and he couldn't help but burst out foul mouth, "Ghost girl, this poisonous woman is no less than eighteen layers of hell, and heaven is intolerable." ”

After saying that, he went to work with his equally angry subordinates.

Where is the head?

Where?

As long as she finds them, she can model these heads, and she can compare them with the runaways one by one, so that the case can be settled, and the Mei mother and son can be sent to the eighteenth layer of hell.

"Uncle Qin—"

There is a life, Qin Dachuan has been around, "How to check?" ”

Yeats took out a few taels of silver from his sleeve pocket, "All the people within a five-mile radius of the Mei family's shop, you use a way to make them spit out all the things about the Mei family's shop." ”

Qin Dachuan nodded.

"And ...... All the mass graves and inconspicuous little temples around the capital were quietly brushed up, and as long as there was anything abnormal, they all told me. ”

"Okay."

Yeats took Xiao Quanzi to the south of the city to find Mei's hometown, and after inquiring for a while, he found out about Mei's mother's house, and saw a man in his early forties: "Do you know Mei Liuniang?" ”

The man's face changed after the vicissitudes of life, "You are ......"

"She has a grocery store, and I supply him soap beans."

The ...... man didn't understand.

"She owes me two taels of silver and has not repaid it, and I can't find her, I heard that her mother's house is in the south of the city, so I came to ......" Yeats looked embarrassed.

The corners of the middle-aged man's mouth twitched for a while before he asked, "Where does she run a grocery store?" ”

Yeats felt that the man's expression was wrong, "You are ......"

The man cried out, "I'm her eldest brother, more than ten years ago, I had a hard time looking for her, and I haven't been seen for so many years, I ...... I thought she was dead in a foreign land, but she didn't ...... I didn't expect to be alive......"

The man's cry was not a curse, but a lost excitement, and he prayed for his sister to live, but the sister told the neighbors that his brother had already fallen ill and died.

The poison of this woman's heart is truly terrifying.

Yeats comforted him for a while before the man calmed down.

Brother Mei pulled Yeats to inquire about everything about his sister, and Yeats found out the real reason for Mei's departure - it turned out that she was unwilling to marry an ordinary woman, and got along with a homeless man in the south of the city, this homeless man is good-looking, although he is not good at words, but he is very capable of fighting, and soon mixed up in the south of the city, and the silver in his hand is constant, and often buys gold and silver for the vain Mei Liuniang, Mei Liuniang is very useful and wants to marry him.

The two elders of the Mei family are all down-to-earth people, how can they marry their daughters to a man who has nothing but fighting, Mei Liuniang wants to marry, and the second elder of the Mei family just won't let go.

At this moment, the homeless man accidentally killed someone, not only did not get the thug's money, but also was denounced, so, on a dark and windy night in a month, the two fled the capital, and there has been no news since then, until now.

"For twenty-two years, we have no news of Mei Niang, and my father and mother have not been blind when they died."

Ay!

Yeats let out a long sigh, maybe it's a good thing not to know anything, if they know that the sister (daughter) who hurts in the palm of their hand is a murderer, how can they be embarrassed.

After a trip to Mei's house, it seems that there is nothing to gain.

Xiao Quanzi puffed out: "I think this woman was born vicious." ”

Yes, this is the harvest, Mei was born unwilling to be mediocre, but unfortunately, the vigorous life she thinks is all based on other people's lives.

Twenty-two years, minus the ten years since they returned to the capital, and the twelve years they have been outside, how did they live, with the hearts of these two people, they would make money to support themselves in a down-to-earth manner?

Coolie money, they can't do it. What about brainpower? Do you open a grocery store as you do now?

If it was neither coolie nor brainpower, what would it be?

Seeing that he was about to go down, Pei Jingning had already read all the official documents on his desk, and at this moment, he was taking a break with tea.

At the door, he heard the sound of Suosuo, he raised his eyes, only to see Bai Lang waving his hand, and his mouth refused.

He thought for a moment, the corners of his mouth were slightly upturned, his eyes were lowered, and he continued to taste tea.

Yeats wanted to ask Bai Lang to use manpower to investigate the cases of husband and wife thieves or husband and wife who committed crimes together in the past 12 years, but he didn't expect this guy to refuse at once.

Bai Lang crossed his arms and looked embarrassed.

Yeats was angry.

I had to tidy up my clothes and bow down at the door, "My lord, my subordinates have something to ask for——"

Pei Jingning drank tea leisurely.

In the summer, the heat died, Yeats couldn't help but puff his lips, swallowed his saliva, and really wanted to drink a pot, but unfortunately the case had to be investigated, and the old lady also asked her to go home early, she had to smirk at a bunch of people inside the door, "My lord?" ”

It seems like an elementary school student who has something to ask.

Pei Jingning raised his eyes unhurriedly, as if he had just seen him.

Receiving the big man's eyes, Yeats slipped into the business room, "My lord, there is progress in Mei's case." ”

"Hmm." The big guy put down the cup with interest and looked up.

This was for her to speak, and Yeats told his superiors about his reasoning and the results of the day.

"My lord, my subordinates think that these two people must not be good stubble, and they will definitely not stay in one place for twelve years, they must be robbing and killing all the way and fleeing all the way, until Mei's husband died unexpectedly, Mei took his son back to the capital to settle down."

"You want to investigate the murder that happened in the whole Great Wei in the Mei family's twelve years away?"

"Exactly."

"What if none of them are related?"

Yeats affirmed: "I can guarantee that there are at least five or more cases related to them, including but not limited to fairy jumping, defrauding wealthy merchants, and murder and stealing goods...... As long as someone reports a crime, and the government registers a case involving a man and a woman, there must be one that they have committed. ”

Little man, when he talked about the case, his expression was flying, confident and calm, and he could see Pei Jingning smile at his uncle.

"Your Excellency?" She spat and talked for a long time, but the big guy sat for a long time without moving, revealing a mysterious smile.

What do you mean? Don't believe her? Then when he was at Mei's house yesterday, why did he trust her so much?

Yeats was annoyed and embarrassed by him.

"Adult ......" unknowingly, it brought out the clip sound.

Oh my God, what is she doing, Yeats covered her mouth in fright, oh no, no, was she exposed?

Pei Jingning didn't seem to hear the feminine clip sound, and his face was solemn: "Bai Lang-"

"Your Excellency." Bai Lang came to him in an instant.

"Let the temples of several other ministries put ......"

Yeats said for him: "From the tenth year of Emperor Shun to the twenty-second year of Emperor Shun, all the unsolved cases about a man and a woman or a husband and wife have been sorted out. ”

"Yes, sir."

Bai Lang soon went out to do it.

This matter is not in a hurry, and it is about to be on duty, and it will definitely not be able to get the information today, Yeats surrendered and retired, "My lord, then my subordinates will retire first." ”

Pei Jingning lowered his eyes and reached out to take the teacup on the table.

Yeats understood that this meant to be released, and hurriedly and respectfully withdrew.

Pei Jingning raised his eyes, his eyes following Yeats's back motionlessly.

Yeats secretly breathed a sigh of relief, he could finally go home, and was ready to clean up his official room and leave the duty.

Zhao Bai is still there.

"Lord Zhao...... "Yeats wants to say so busy?" Thinking about it, I don't think it's appropriate, I smile, and I don't know what to say.

Zhao Bai didn't care, and even laughed at himself, "Yes, I'm so busy that I forgot about the next value." ”

Yeats shook his head and smiled, tidying up his desk.

Zhao Bai asked, "How about the investigation on this day?" ”
