Chapter 183: Demolition

The death of the Du family's concubine does not mean that Du Boqin has really cleared his suspicions.

This concubine died so coincidentally, no matter how you look at it, it is suspicious. In addition, the veterans on the Zhou family Zhuangzi were able to obtain permission to enter the Du family Zhuangzi to search, and they obtained the consent of the Du family's concubines in advance, who knows if Du Boqin was taking the opportunity to vent his anger and kill people by the way?

Du Boqin said that his concubine committed the crime first, and committed suicide later, because it was an ugly thing that could not be seen, so he ordered his family to bury the deceased concubine hastily. If it weren't for the old Marshal Zhou of Zhenguo Gong who sent someone to the door for questioning, I was afraid that Du Boqin wouldn't even plan to tell outsiders about the death of this concubine.

His concubine had been dead for less than two days and had been buried in the mountains. The two henchmen and maids who were waiting for them were also sold far away because of the ineffective protector of the master. It is really impressive that Du Boqin is so efficient and neat.

Except for the Du family, the Chang'an avant-garde side did not find any useful clues.

The bow and arrow workshop produced in the arrow workshop equipped with special arrows has always had a limit on the number of arrows, but now the audit has found a surplus of more than 1,000, the workshop manager deduced that it was specially prepared for the northwest border army in the northwest border next spring may hold a big parade, the previous test shot, but also accidentally lost a batch, about two or three hundred arrows, still missing, suspected that it was stolen by the young people and re-sold, the clues have been completely interrupted, the workshop has no choice but to make a note on the account, and it is not done.

However, the Shaanxi Metropolitan Division did not know any news about the Northwest Frontier Army's military parade, and even the old marshal Zhou only heard a niece and son-in-law mention it by chance, and it was not on the schedule at all. The emperor's attitude towards the Zhou family has just eased, what kind of border army parade is there at this time? Not to mention the consumption of manpower and financial resources, if the emperor is not present, the old marshal of Zhou will come forward to preside, so that in the eyes of the imperial court, wouldn't it become the so-called sin of the Zhou family? !

Since there is no such thing as a big parade and martial arts, why did the avant-garde workshop of Chang'an add arrows for this? And just "lost" a batch? With these unaccounted for arrows, it seems to explain that the killer's accomplices have nothing to do with Du Boqin, they got the arrows from the arrow thief. The so-called money recorded in the account is still fresh, and it looks more like it was written in the past two or three days.

Whether it is the old marshal of Zhenguo Gong Zhou or the veteran military division who has been in battle for a long time, it is not so easy to be fooled.

Re-check the masked man who rescued the young killer from the reef that day, and the personal guards around Du Boqin, at least a dozen people are similar to him. And these people testified to each other, and all of them stayed in the guard house on the day of the incident, never left, and all had alibis.

However, on that day, Zhuang Zi, a veteran of the Zhou family, went to the Chang'an avant-garde to find Du Boqin to ask for permission to search the village, but he saw with his own eyes that several of them had taken leave and went to the nearby town to eat and drink and have fun. Although they didn't see any of these people left alone to do any unsightly bad things, the presence of these people was enough to prove that Du Boqin's personal soldiers testified to each other that they had never left the guard house was a lie.

Du Boqin's personal soldiers did not make a good statement in advance, so that something went wrong, and after being reprimanded by Du Boqin, they changed their words, claiming that they went to the town to spend all day drinking without telling people, for fear of being scolded by their superiors, so they lied, but they could testify to each other, and the people who went out of the guard house that day were all entertained in a flower building, and no one left alone, so naturally no one carried a bow and arrow to save any villains.

The people of Hualou testified for them.

The tavern diagonally opposite the Hualou was demolished, and he testified that two soldiers walked in front of their store that day, because they accidentally bumped into someone, and had a quarrel with someone. The two pro-soldiers were covered with wine, laughing and leaving, the smell of alcohol drifting all the way, and finally disappeared at the door of a secret door on the inner street.

Secretly denied that he had entertained two soldiers of the Chang'an avant-garde.

The neighbors of the secret door scolded the secret door for relying on these two relatives to get along, and bullied the neighbors on weekdays, making their whole alley smoky. On the day of the incident, they were eating, drinking, singing, and composing at home, arguing all night, and every family in the neighborhood could not sleep peacefully.

The lies of Du Boqin's pro-soldiers were once again demolished.

It's just that the pro-soldiers who left Hualou and acted alone were under the testimony of the secret menzi, and at the same time had an alibi, and they were not masked people who went to save the killer. The old marshal Zhou and the old military division had no intention of dealing with them, and Du Boqin was responsible for punishing them for violating military discipline. But Du Boqin's soldiers lied repeatedly, and no one believed that they were innocent anymore.

Du Boqin's suspicion cannot be cleared, but there is no clear evidence to prove that he is the mastermind of sending killers to kill the Jin family, after all, he has nothing to do with the Jin family and has no motive to kill. At the moment, it can only be said that there is no escaping the charge of harboring a murderer. No matter how much he claims his innocence, he can't escape the responsibility of negligence.

Marshal Zhou still has some expectations for this niece and son-in-law who has been cultivated for many years, and has ordered him to come to the door to explain it clearly. Du Boqin has not yet gone to the door of the Zhenguo Mansion for the time being, but has gone to the door of his own father-in-law, I don't know what to say, please move his father-in-law to the Zhenguo Mansion to intercede for his son-in-law.

His father-in-law probably didn't know what his son-in-law had done, and he was deceived by the concubine who gave birth to an only son, and it was his concubine who took in the gangsters of unknown origin in the capital, colluding with the killer to do wrongdoing, and now that this concubine has committed suicide in fear of crime, this kind of thing will not happen again in the future. Of course, the son-in-law is innocent, but because he is busy with official business and neglects family affairs, he should be punished, and it is too exaggerated to be dismissed from his post and questioned......

Old Marshal Zhou was so angry that he was speechless by the persuasion of his old brother, but he couldn't deal with the old fool who was coaxed.

The old military advisor privately ordered someone to find the two maid rings sold by the Du family. There are a number of people on the territory of Chang'an, and since these two maid rings were sold from the name of the son-in-law of the Zhou family, someone will definitely know their whereabouts. Du Boqin will sell people, naturally because they must know something, but they don't know the real secret, so they don't need to kill people. When the person is recovered, what secrets are hidden within the Du family will be revealed.

The old military division will continue to live in the Zhenguo Mansion and preside over the investigation related to Du Boqin. He sent his grandson to tell Hai Jiao that the young man should calm down and not ask around. The incident has already alarmed Du Boqin, and in order to cover up his crime, he will definitely not sit idly by. He can't help the Zhenguo Mansion, but he can easily handle a young man. The old military division was very optimistic about the reef and did not want him to encounter any danger.

After Haijiao said this, he sneered: "The old military division still doesn't know the new clues found in the prefect's yamen." I don't know what the Huang Governor's Mansion is worried about, so I just kept it a good person, and told the grandson of the old military division that the dead killer had a dead soldier of the Sun family. Looking back, the old military advisor knew that this case was related to the Sun family, and the person Du Boqin shielded was actually involved with Sun Gelao, so it is estimated that he would have a deeper understanding of Du Boqin's true thoughts, right? ”

Du Boqin didn't know the Jin family and had no motive to kill? Sounds convincing.

So how did he explain why he would shelter a few dead soldiers sent by the Sun family to kill people? As the son-in-law of the Zhou family, doesn't he know what Sun Ge Lao's attitude is towards the Zhou family?

Hearing this, Haitang asked Haijiao a question: "Has the motive of the Sun family sending killers to kill the Jin family now been clarified?" ”

The reef was dumbfounded.
