Gu Zaoqing smiled and said, "How can Meng Niangzi be a suspect!" ”

Yang Wuregret looked back at Gu Zaoqing and replied, "Why is it impossible?" Anyone who has been in contact with Meng Bing is suspicious, and this Meng Shuangniang is the most suspicious. ”

Gu Zaoqing shook his head and said, "No, no, why did this Meng Niangzi kill her niece?" There's no reason for that! ”

Yang Wuregret sighed, looking at Gu Zaoqing, he only felt that this person would not be lustful!

However, Gu Zaoqing's trip was his important classmate, and Yang Wuregret was still willing to explain to him.

"There are many reasons, such as the two parties' different business philosophies for the rouge shop, such as the different money they share, or the fact that they like the same person, all kinds of things can lead to the occurrence of a case. So my brother Gu, don't use your brain after knowing me. ”

Gu Zaoqing glanced at Yang Wuregret, but what Yang Wuregret said was indeed true.

Because after Gu Zaoqing met Yang Wuregret, he didn't like to use his brain.

Anyway, he feels that he is not as smart as Yang Wuregret, so protecting Yang Wuregret is protecting his IQ.

But Yang Wuregret felt that Gu Zaoqing was also the deputy commander of the Imperial City Division.

After all, you can't rely on yourself.

When he returned to the county office, Yang Wuregret went to find the autopsy for Meng Bing half a year ago.

This old man heard the new county lord ask about this, but he still remembered it clearly.

He remembered that Meng Bing had been strangled, and that the murder weapon was a hemp rope and was still on the bedside table in their home.

It was the conclusion reached by comparing the hemp rope after the body was found at that time.

Yang Wuregret finished asking and returned to his small courtyard.

Zhan Yirong saw that Yang Wuregret was back, so he asked, "What clues did you have?" ”

Yang Wuregret replied: "I saw Meng Shuanghe today's autopsy for Meng Bing, and there is no useful news. Tomorrow I will go to the prison to meet this Zhang Gongzi for a while and see what is going on with him. ”

Zhan Yirong was puzzled: "As for the crime of theft, you haven't released it yet?" ”

Yang Wuxian explained: "How can it be so simple, the Song Law stipulates that those who commit the crime of theft and their stolen money and goods are directly executed, and those who are less than five times need to be sentenced to 20 spinal rods and serve for three years. During Renzong's lifetime, the crime of theft was generally punished by death, the wife was assigned thousands of miles, and the property was confiscated and rewarded to the informant, and the recidivist was sentenced to death even if he was an accomplice, which was much more serious than Tang Law. But now, it's the former. ”

Zhan Yirong looked incredulous, she was really not very familiar with Song Lu.

I just didn't expect it to be so serious.

"This Zhang Gongzi was not sentenced to death because he needed to serve for three years?"

Yang Wu regretted it: "That's right, that's it!" ”

At this time, Wang Rulan suddenly said: "I also remember this case, it seems that this Zhang Gongzi's name is Zhang Sheng!" Half a year ago, the Yamen tried his case, and he stole the money of Mr. Huang, a gentleman who sold calligraphy and paintings in the north of the city. But it's not much, it seems that there are only some broken silver, about five dollars. At that time, he was caught, and when he was punished with a cane in the yamen, I also witnessed it with my own eyes, and I was beaten so badly that I was almost beaten to death. ”

Wang Rulan also added: "This case was decided by the previous county magistrate, Lu County Magistrate. ”

Yang Wuregret glanced at Wang Rulan, and then looked at Zhan Yirong.

Zhan Yirong was puzzled: "What's wrong?" ”

Yang replied without regrets: "Nothing! ”

Then he said to Wang Rulan: "Rulan, do you remember when the case was decided?" ”

Rulan shook her head: "I don't remember very clearly, but it was raining that day, and it was raining that day." The reason why I remember the rain was because it rained twice that month, and this time it was a torrential rain, so I wrote it down. ”

Yang Wuregret stood up and walked over to the case files.

He said to Wang Rulan and Zhan Yirong: "Yirong, Rulan, help me find the file of this case!" ”

Zhan Yirong was stunned for a moment, but Wang Rulan said: "The file is not difficult to find, just now, when you went out, my lord, I was bored and sorted it out." The first stack is within one year, the second is within three years, the third is more than three years, and the last is more than seven years. ”

Zhan Yirong was stunned for a while, but Yang Wuregret glanced at her with a smile.

At this moment, how could Zhan Yirong not understand Yang Wuregret's meaning.

But Yang Wuregret just smiled, and walked to the first stack, and in the third case, he found the file about Zhang Sheng.

said that this Zhang Sheng, Jiannan people, more than 20.

As soon as he came to Xichong County, he stole the silver that sold calligraphy and painting in the north of the city, and was caught on the spot.

So Huang Buyu reported to the official and arrested him.

The date was the seventh day of October last year.

Seeing this, Yang Wuregret frowned.

Zhan Yirong leaned over and asked, "What's wrong?" ”

Yang Wuregret explained: "I went to Meng Niangzi's house, and even mentioned in Meng Bing's dossier that Zhang Sheng once came to Meng Shuang to borrow money, but he didn't borrow much, only five coins of silver. ”

Zhan Yirong said: "Rulan just said that he stole Mr. Calligraphy and Painting's money, which is also five dollars. It's that number, what's weird! ”

Yang Wu regretted and said: "If, I mean, if you have five coins of silver on you, will you still think about stealing five coins again?" ”

Zhan Yirong said: "Who would be afraid of too much money!" ”

Yang Wuregret was silent, and then said: "If, according to what Meng Shuang said, this Zhang Sheng is a scholar, do you still think that he has five coins of silver on him, and then take the risk of stealing five coins of silver?" ”

Zhan Yirong shook his head: "I don't understand what you mean!" ”

Yang Wu regretted saying: "The price of goods in the Great Song Dynasty is not high now, a cake or a bun in Xichong costs a penny, a bowl of noodles with green onions and vegetables is only three pennies, and if you add meat, it will cost five pennies." Five coins of silver is enough for one person for a while. Zhang Sheng is a scholar and should know the laws of the Great Song Dynasty, so in such a situation, will he still take risks to steal silver? ”

Zhan Yirong seemed to understand something, but she didn't know what Yang Wuregret wanted to express.

Wang Rulan didn't understand what Yang Wuregret meant, but there was really a lot of five coins of silver.

You must know that her father teaches in a private school, and his income is only two yuan of silver a month, and if one or two silver is just to buy rice and noodles, it is enough for a family of three to live for a year.

Yang Wuregret glanced at the two of them deeply before saying, "This shows that Zhang Sheng may not be Zhang Sheng!" ”

As soon as these words came out, Zhan Yirong and Wang Rulan were stupid again.

What nonsense is Yang Wuregret talking about, why is Zhang Sheng not Zhang Sheng?

Zhang Sheng is not Zhang Sheng, who else can it be?

However, although Yang Wuregret has a guess, he still needs to be demonstrated.

He immediately called Gu Zaoqing, who was hanging out, at the door.
