270 Incisor Cases(8)
Lord Fan didn't expect that his concubine would be related to the incisor case, not only did King Han ask, but even Yeats also investigated, and when the concubine returned to the mansion, he immediately called him to the study.
As a Dali Siqing, the Incisor case is a well-known unsolved case in Beijing, even if he did not intervene in this case, he knows most of the situation, and of course he knows Yeats's so-called criminal profile.
The killer was abused as a child.
Abuse ......
Master Fan had a dark and calm face, "Someone in the family abuses you?" ”
The family is ugly, and as the highest official in charge of the country's criminal prisons, he doesn't know it.
Disturbed by being asked by the people of Dali Temple during the day, Fan Wenjia did not calm down, and faced Lao Tzu with a face like a coffin board again, and a huge mocking smile instantly burst out on his once timid and cowardly face: "What should I do, Dali Siqing actually didn't know that his wife and children had committed murder against his concubine?" ”
Master Fan stood up, stretched out his hand and slapped the table, snapping, which was terrifying, but this was the former Fan Wenjia, at this moment, as if he had passed the final judgment, his eyes met Lao Tzu calmly.
In the twilight, the last ray of light in the study disappeared, and the father and son suddenly disappeared into the darkness.
But his eyes burned.
Time is like an elongated silk thread becoming thinner...... Finally...... Broken at the sound of the servant's knock.
The momentum of Lord Fan's father and superior person was depressed for a moment, and his calm question became confused: "Is it really you?" ”
Fan Wenjia looked directly at the high-ranking Lao Tzu like that, and sneered unchanged: "Yes, what; No, so what? ”
The ones who killed were all the sons of the nobles in Beijing, even if he was a Dali Siqing, he couldn't protect his son!
"You ......" Master Fan sat down in the circle chair in a dejected manner, how could this be?
Seeing that Lao Tzu, a high-ranking official who has always been strict and unsmiling, was afraid of being like this, Fan Wenjia felt a pleasure that he had never felt before, it turned out ......
The time given by Qi Guogong to handle the case, seeing that it was approaching day by day, Teng Chong and the others became anxious.
He urged: "Little Brother Ye, why did you let the surname Fan go, what if you apply for an arrest warrant tomorrow and Lord Fan hides him?" ”
Zhang Jin also advocated arresting people quickly, "Lord Ye, what questions did you ask in the morning, I went to check them in the afternoon, and they all match, do you want to arrest people for interrogation?" ”
Qin Dachuan and Yang Fuquan also looked at Yeats.
Yeats stood silently on the curbs of the street.
When the night comes, the evening breeze blows, and it is almost August, and the sky is gradually drying, and the wind blows on people, bringing a chill.
"It's not him."
The sound was very soft, and it was carried away by the wind in an instant.
But Teng Chong and the others still heard it, they were stunned for a moment, looked at each other, as if they understood something, and their eyes widened, "Won't it?" ”
Teng Chong was just about to open his mouth when someone on the other side of the street greeted him, "Lord Ye, Teng catches the head ......"
Yeats and the others looked over in unison.
Zhao Bai came over from across the street, "Are you going to find a place to have dinner?" He smiled and said with a kind face, "Coincidentally, I also came out for dinner, do you want to join us, I invite everyone." ”
Teng Chong and the others suddenly got stuck.
Yeats smiled indifferently, "It's really a coincidence, I don't know which restaurant to choose, Lord Zhao is going to ......"
He turned to a medium-sized restaurant behind him, "I heard that their house has a new signature dish, do you want to try it?" ”
Yeats smiled and nodded, "Okay." With that, the two walked side by side across the street.
Teng Chong and several people looked at each other, the five suspects, the first excluded Zhao Bai They did not investigate, but with the investigation, Yeats denied the other four people who were investigated.
So that's the only thing left that hasn't been investigated? If not him, who else would it be? Yeats, who has barely missed, will miss this time?
Will the Incisor Case Continue to Be an Unsolved Case?
There are so many cases in the world, and there are many unsolved cases in Dali Temple, and this one is not bad, but the Qi State Guild let the murderer of his precious grandson go unpunished?
Zhao Bai turned his head, "Brother Teng? ”
“……”
"I'm having a dinner time, don't you want to have a meal?"
Realizing the gaffe, Teng Chong immediately returned to normal, and laughed: "How come, it's just that Lord Zhao shouldn't be stingy, just order more good wine and good food." ”
"That's nature." He smiled like a spring breeze.
Teng Chong smiled and followed. And the crowd gladly followed.
Zhao Bai turned his head, the smile on his face was all the time, and he looked at Yeats, "How is the case of the grandson of Qi Guogong?" Has the murderer in the front teeth case been found? ”
Yeats smiled and turned his face: "I'm checking." ”
"Do you have eyebrows?"
"It's hard to check anyway."
Zhao Bai deliberately remarked: "Little Brother Ye still has a case that can't be investigated?" ”
Yeats folded his shoulders: "Of course, you can't treat me as a god." ”
The two looked at each other and smiled.
In the night, on both sides of the door of the restaurant, the lights poured out from the lanterns, shining on everyone, seeing her hearty face, Zhao Bai's smile expanded, a look, a movement, as if there was a wordless tacit understanding between them.
Teng Chong and the others quietly stopped, looking at the two of them who were smiling, why did they feel that something was wrong tonight? Just when he was wondering what he wanted to say, Zhao Bai stretched out his hand and asked, "Everyone, second floor, please-"
"Thank you!" Yeats showed his face and strode into the restaurant.
Zhao Bai followed into the restaurant.
Teng Chong didn't move, and even took a step back, letting Zhang Jin enter the restaurant first, he approached Yang Fuquan, "Xiao Quanzi, you have been learning to handle cases recently, do you think you ...... just now?"
Before he could finish speaking, Yang Fuquan raised his hand and waved, and quickly followed up with the restaurant.
Teng Chong's gaze followed their backs, and he felt that Zhao Bai must have turned around to look at him just now.
It's just a feeling.
Half an hour later, a table of meals was eaten, and after a day of rushing, everyone was not polite to be colleagues, and they all filled their stomachs.
Yeats is drinking the last sweet soup. In the end, it's a girl, or do you like these sweet soups and sweet waters.
Zhao Bai saw her holding the soup cup, and her smile never stopped tonight, "There are still two days, right?" ”
"Hmm."
A table of people, Zhao Bai asked suddenly, Yeats replied indifferently.
Teng Chong's hand holding the teacup tightened slightly, he felt as if something was going to happen, and sure enough......
Zhao Bai leaned back on the chair, and the whole person was in a state of being full of food and drink, "King Han has checked Fan Wenjia, and you have also checked Fan Wenjia." ”
Yeats, who was drinking soup with his eyes down, raised his eyes, "I remember the first time we met in a bookstore?" ”
"The bookstore on Wenxin Street." Zhao Bai completed the address.
Teng Chong and the others' eyelids jumped when they heard this, God, they finally understood why Yeats asked Fan Wenjia this question in the morning.
The two are friends.
Here it comes...... Is that how it comes? Teng Chong and the others couldn't believe it.
Yeats pushed away the unfinished sweet soup, half-leaned back in the chair, and looked at Zhao Bai diagonally opposite, "You are the youngest son of the king of Shunyang County?" ”
"Yes."
"It's a concubine."
"Yes."
"Sister-in-law ranked second?"
"That's right."
Three questions and three answers.
Yeats didn't stop and continued, "The son of the king of Shunyang died of a horse? ”
"Yes, when he was seventeen years old, a polo match was held in Beijing, and during the game, the horse stepped on a nail and was frightened by pain, and he was thrown off the horse and died that night."
"Was it man-made or accidental?"
When asked at this moment, Zhao Bai did not answer immediately.
His eyes drooped as he kept looking at Yeats.
Teng Chong finally dared to take a deep breath, and quietly reached out and pulled Yeats, Yeats seemed to be unconscious, and kept staring at Zhao Bai, "In addition to being bad for you, the princess of Shunyang County is not good for the other concubines, is it?" ”
Not good? It was too tactful to say it in front of him.
Zhao Bai raised his eyes, his eyes were full of ridicule, "The eldest son of the Shunyang County Wangfu died at the age of five, the third son died in the womb, the fourth son died at the age of thirteen, and only the fifth son of the concubine, that is, I have lived until now." ”
In the end, Zhao Bai was left alone in the concubine of the prince of Shunyang County, so as a concubine, he had the opportunity to inherit the title.
Yeats pursed her lips, reached out to reach the unfinished sweet soup, drank it all in one go, and before putting down the soup cup, she looked at Zhao Bai again, "It was the princess of Shunyang County who abused you first, and then there was the shocking death of her own son, right?" ”
The two looked at each other.
It's not for the sake of taking the title.
She read his gaze.
Zhao Bai also replied without hesitation: "Yes." ”
Yeats put down the soup cup and smiled slightly, "Fifth Brother Zhao, the meal is over, it's time for you to go and settle the bill." ”
Yes......
Isn't it a case within a case? The death of the concubine of the Shunyang County Wangfu was an accident to the outside world, what does it mean for Junior Brother Ye to ask now?
How did you settle the bill?
Don't you keep asking?
Both had smiles on their faces.
He said, "Yes, I'm in for a treat today." After speaking, he got up and went downstairs, walked to the door of the private room, turned his head, and still had a smile on his face: "You don't want to ask anything else?" ”
"Fan Wenjia will reply to me."
"Oh!" Zhao Bai pursed his lower lip, as if he wanted to say something.
Yeats got up: "Fifth Brother Zhao is reluctant to pay, so I'll settle it?" She smiled a little playfully.
Zhao Bai's smiling eyes were instantly dyed with sadness, "If ......"
"If we meet again next time, I will knock Fifth Brother Zhao again." Her smile was sweet.
Zhao Bai didn't seem to see it, so he immediately turned his head and went downstairs.
If it was he who met him first, then they ...... In the blink of an eye, what if you encounter it first? He's not a ...... yet
If...... Even if there is an if, there will be no ...... between them Zhao Bo paused and turned his head to look upstairs again...... There was sadness in his eyes.
In the private room, Yeats's face collapsed instantly after smiling all night, and the whole person was shrouded in sadness.
Teng Chong didn't know what to do, and stretched out his hand to pat Yeats, "Is the murderer Fan Wenjia or ......" He looked at Zhao Bai who was downstairs.
She let out a long sigh, "Let's go too." After saying that, they staggered downstairs step by step, as if they had suffered a huge blow, but they were obviously eating!
Zhang Jin felt that something was wrong: "Lord Ye, do you mean that Lord Zhao didn't wait for us to leave first?" ”
Yeats walked in front of the stairs, step by step without replying.
But Teng Chong, Zhang Jin and the others still heard it, and he stretched out his hand to hold Yeats: "Little Brother Ye, the day after tomorrow is the time for Qi Guogong to ask us about the murderer, and now there are two days left, who is the murderer?" ”
Yeats brushed off Teng Chong's hand and went downstairs, and after a while he left the restaurant, stood at the door of the restaurant, looking at the street in the night, and a carriage had just left.
Teng Chong and others knew that it was Zhao Bai's carriage, and when he was still pestering Yeats to say that he was the murderer, in the opposite direction, the two carriages slowly stopped, and the people inside got off almost at the same time.
It's Pei Jingning and King Han.
The two greeted each other and exchanged pleasantries.
Yeats and others stepped forward to salute.
Before Pei Jingning could speak to Yeats, King Han asked, "What about Zhao Bai?" ”
"After eating, I checked out and left."
King Han's eyes sank, "When?" ”
"Walked for a while."
Obviously, he just left for a while, and Little Brother Ye actually lied, why? Teng Chong couldn't figure it out, but King Han was there, so he couldn't ask anything.
King Han stared at Yeats gloomily, "Lord Ye, there are still two days left." ”
Yeats replied indifferently: "The lower official knows." ”
"You'd better know." King Han looked at Pei Jingning deeply, hooked the corners of his mouth coldly, and left with his sleeves.
After getting into the carriage, Yeats leaned on Pei Jingning's shoulder.
"Tired?" Pei Jingning stretched out his hand to stroke her hair.
Yeats mumbled.
Pei Jingning looked at her with low eyes, "Have you confirmed who is the murderer?" ”
"Hmm." After answering the voice, Yeats turned around and reached out to hug Pei Jingning, "My lord, I hope it wasn't him." ”
Pei Jingning sighed secretly, and also hugged her thin shoulder, "Actually, in my cousin's case, you identified the murderer of the front tooth case, didn't you?" ”
Hearing this, Yeats looked up from his arms.
The two looked at each other.
"Adult ......"
At this moment, Yeats is no longer the high-spirited detective, but an ordinary person who has lost friends and colleagues.
Zhao Bai became the biggest test of Yeats's criminal investigation career.
All the dead in the Incisor Case were powerful people who committed crimes, and they didn't pay attention to the law at all, and Zhao Bai punished these lawless magnates like a dark messenger.
From the perspective of the law, Zhao Bai is a murderer and a murderer; But where things in the world can be either white or black, and where the law cannot reach them, there will always be people who do the right thing for heaven.
But because the deceased was an adulterer, can he ignore that the murderer did not break the law? As an enforcer of the law, Yeats knew that to kill someone was to break the law and to be brought to justice.
Pei Jingning gently stroked Yeats's back and waited until her emotions calmed down, "Next, what are you going to do?" ”
Yeats didn't know, and it was a long time before she replied sullenly, "I hope he will turn himself in!" ”
Surrender?
After sending Yeats home, Pei Jingning asked Bai Lang to stare at Zhao Bai, but he didn't expect Zhao Qi'an to come, "King Han has already made a move." ”
"Caught?"
Zhao Qi'an said: "I didn't have it when I came. ”
Hearing this, for some reason, Pei Jingning chuckled.
"What are you laughing at?" Zhao Qi'an was puzzled, "If he catches it, the credit will be his." ”
Pei Jingning raised his eyebrows, noncommittal.
For the incisor case, the people in the whole capital are looking forward to who the real murderer is, until now the five suspects have been locked, and it will soon be the day of the Qi State Convention, and now Yu Zhaobai has not investigated and audited, "Could it really be him?" ”
He still didn't believe it, "The position of the prince of Shunyang County Palace, that's stepping on the blood light all the way!" ”
"Then wait tomorrow to see if King Han has caught anyone!"
On the second day, as soon as Yeats was on duty, Teng Chong ran over in a hurry, and "Zhao ......" suddenly stammered and couldn't speak.
Zhang Jin ran over from behind, and seeing that Teng Chong didn't speak, he said, "Lord Zhao escaped, just now King Han found Pei Shaoqing and went to the sea to catch papers." ”
For some reason, Yeats was both uncomfortable and unconsciously relieved.
Teng Chong finally spoke, "Little Brother Ye, you give me the right words, who is the murderer?" ”
Zhang Jin, Qin Dachuan and others looked at her in unison.
Yeats looked at the workstation behind him, which was Zhao Bai's workbench.
"Is it him?" Teng Chong still can't believe it, "What's going on, let's not talk about other cases, when Liang Baolin was killed, Zhao Baike was in the city, how could he kill someone?" ”
Yeats asked rhetorically, "Can't you fake?" ”
Teng Chong was stunned.
Yang Fuquan's brain was running at high speed, and he seemed to have rushed to the case: "Brother Ye, isn't this the case, Lord Zhao has been sick recently, so he has been in the mansion, and no one has noticed him, at the time of the crime, he had actually secretly gone out of the city, through his friend Fan Wenjia who he met in the bookstore, he hid in the Fan Mansion Courtyard, and at night he went to the Qi Guogong Courtyard to kill Liang Baolin, and the next morning, he returned to the city through Fan Wenjia's carriage and quietly slipped back home, is it." ”
Yeats nodded.
"Then ......" Yang Fuquan scratched his head, "Is Fan Wenjia an accomplice in this case, or an accomplice in all cases?" ”
Yeats replied, "I must have only been an accessory to the case." ”
Zhang Jin gasped, "Isn't that going to catch Lord Fan's son?" ”
That's for sure, but what people didn't expect was that Lord Fan's concubine actually covered all seven front tooth cases, admitting that he killed these people and knocked on the front teeth.
Is...... Lose your marbles.
Teng Chong asked Yeats again to confirm, "Make no mistake, the one surnamed Fan is an accomplice in the last case?" ”
"That's nature."
Yeats didn't expect that Fan Wenjia hated Lord Fan to such an extent, which was really ......
The emperor learned through Pei Jingning's mouth that the main culprit in the front tooth case was indeed Zhao Bai, and Fan Wenjia was an accomplice in the last case, "As the secretary of Dali Temple, he actually indulged in his wife and abused his concubine, such an official was not worthy of the position, so he was removed from his official position as secretary of Dali Temple and demoted to Youzhou General Judgment." ”
Suddenly downgraded from the second grade to the fifth grade, from the capital to the northwest, this level was ruthless enough.
After learning that Master Fan was demoted to the northwest, Fan Wenjia finally changed his mind and told all the stories of how to help Zhao Bai hide and return to the city, because he did not participate in the killing, only the crime of concealment, and was sentenced to two years.
Qi Guogong knew that his son's murderer was the murderer, and while pressuring the newly appointed Dali Temple Secretary Pei Jingning, he asked King Han to send people to arrest Zhao Bai throughout the Great Wei Dynasty.
Due to the revelation of the murderer in the front tooth case, many years ago, the son of the prince of Shunyang County was re-revealed, and a number of evidence pointed to the mastermind of the horse was Zhao Bai, the king of Shunyang County cried in front of Emperor Longqi, but because of the incompetence of the family, the concubines died one by one, and were ruthlessly demoted to commoners by Emperor Longqi, and the family was driven out of the capital, and the princess of Shunyang County couldn't bear the result that her son was killed by the concubine and went crazy at the moment.
Plant melons and get melons, plant beans and get beans, when she abused her concubines and concubines, did she ever think about this day, planting cause and effect, not not retributing, the time has not come, what evil you plant, what punishment you get, and the sky will not spare anyone.
Whether it is Dali Temple, or King Han and Qi Guogong, they have not found Zhao Bai.
Teng Chong asked, "Junior Brother Ye, where do you say he will hide?" ”
Yeats remembered the time when he went to visit the palace of Shunyang County, and there was a travelogue behind the teapot, which seemed to be about Annam and Dongyi, perhaps, he went there!
Zhang Jin smacked, "I thought he would ......"
What will be? Surrender? Or suicide in fear of sin?
The princess of Shunyang County tortured four concubines to death all the way, he was the only male in the palace of Shunyang County who survived, and it was not easy to survive, just by virtue of this, Zhao Bai did not allow himself to die.
Yeats had thought about it, but when he showed up for a treat that night, Yeats actually guessed what he wanted to do.
If she were to go back to that night, would she stop him?
Yeats had asked himself this question for many years. (End of chapter)
