Chapter 320: Portrait Again

The next day, Jiang Wanning sent Mr. Wen and Yang Xu out of the city, the whole caravan of more than 30 people, she asked Zhu Sheng to follow, Qi Yu sent a young man in his early twenties, people looked clever, and his attitude was also very good, he was respectful to Mr. Wen and Yang Xu, and he quickly became familiar with Zhu Sheng.

It seems that Qi Yu has specially explained.

In this way, Jiang Wanning was relieved.

Seeing the caravan go away, Jiang Wanning did not return to Sanxi Hall until it was gone.

The second elder brother was also there, I don't know what to say to Lin Ruoruo, Lin Ruoruo blushed rarely, and when she came back, Lin Ruoruo went to the medicine warehouse with a red face.

"What did you say to Ruoruo?" Jiang Wanning inquired curiously.

Jiang Shi took out a letter: "I received it this morning." ”

Jiang Wanning took the letter, and when she looked at the handwriting on it, she knew that it was written by the eldest brother.

The letter said that his father and two brothers had already left for the capital, and his father thought that it was very good for Jiang Shi to marry a female doctor, and when he arrived in the capital, he would propose marriage to the woman, and if the woman did not mind, the marriage would be done as soon as possible. In the letter, he was very happy that Jiang Wanning was awarded the title of Qingping County Lord and became the deputy judge of the Imperial Hospital, saying that his father received the letter and went to the Jiang family ancestral hall to comfort his ancestors on the same day.

Jiang Wanning is also happy that her father and brother are coming to the capital, she hasn't seen her father and brother for a long time.

"Brother, when did you write a letter to your father?"

"It's been written a long time ago. Like you, after arriving in the capital, did you write a letter to your family? ”

Jiang Wanning sneered, she really didn't write it, there were too many things, and besides, she didn't know how to tell her father, saying that she was cheated by the Song family and left......

She thought about waiting for the dust to settle.

"Oh, so, you just told Lin Ruoruo about the marriage?"

Jiang Shi was rarely shy: "That, my father and brother agreed, so I told her directly." ”

"Sister, what you said is right, I have never dared to say it, for fear of being rejected, but I said it today, and she looked at me differently, and she seemed to like me a little."

Jiang Wanning smiled and said, "It seems that I have to prepare a congratulatory gift." ”

"That's necessary, I'll tell you, I won't agree to the congratulatory gift." Jiang Shi said arrogantly.

"Definitely not less." She is not for her brother, but for Lin Ruoruo.

Lin Ruoruo left everything in Jiangcheng and came to the capital with her, she regarded Lin Ruoruo as her own person, even if Lin Ruoruo didn't marry someone else with Jiang Shi, she also planned to buy a rich dowry for Lin Ruoruo.

Now that Lin Ruoruo is about to become her third sister-in-law, she can't be stingy.

Jiang Wanning remembered the case of the Ministry of Works, and went to Dali Temple again.

As soon as she went, Xing Feng sued her.

"That Yao Er's girl is really thicker than the city wall, and she came again yesterday, and the adult said that if she didn't leave, she would beat the gong and beat the drum to send her back to the house, which scared her and left immediately, and then the adult wrote a letter for me to send to Lord Yao, I don't know if the second Yao girl will come today."

Jiang Wanning was not surprised at all, Yao Ying would not give up so easily.

I don't know what moths will come out yet.

"Xing Feng, Xing Feng, prepare the car, I want to go to the Yamen of the Ministry of Works." The sound of Gu Zhou stopping came from inside.

"Hey, the little one will go immediately, adult, Mrs. Jiang is here."

After a while, Gu Zhou stopped and walked out.

"I was just about to look for you, and you came." Gu Zhou's face stopped like a spring breeze.

"Where can I be found?" Jiang Wanning said with a smile.

"The emperor has a deadline of five days to solve the case, and now that the deadline has passed, I have to beg you, a senior counselor, to take action."

Jiang Wanning turned around and left.

Gu Zhou stopped looking confused: "Wanning, if you don't want to go, don't go, don't be angry!" ”

Jiang Wanning turned around and said, "Who said I don't want to go, I'm going to change my clothes, I'm waiting for you outside." ”

Gu Zhou paused for a long time and was scared to death.

I thought she was angry.

Jiang Wanning's carriage was equipped with men's clothes, and she had to change into a handsome and elegant Jiang Ning.

The two went straight to the Yamen of the Ministry of Works.

On the way, Gu Zhou stopped and told her the results of yesterday's investigation.

"The two hundred bows and crossbows of the Praetorian Guard are kept in a unified manner, and there are records every time they are used, and there is no record of bows and crossbows coming out of the warehouse on the night of the assassination of Lord Huang of the Ministry of Industry and the first three days, these bows and crossbows are all from the bow and arrow battalion, and the bow and arrow battalion has a total of 300 archers.

As he spoke, Gu Zhou stopped taking out a list: "The ones on this list are the best at shooting in the archery battalion, and they can all penetrate Yang in a hundred steps, I have also investigated these people, on the night of Lord Huang's assassination, there were seven people on duty, and three people were not on duty, but there were people who proved that they had alibi evidence." ”

"This is the result of the investigation." Gu Zhouzhu gave him another file.

Jiang Wanning looked at it one by one, Liu Qingxiang, who was at home that night, and his wife said that he would get up to practice on the fifth watch.

Wang Xin went out of the city that night to his grandfather's house, and came back in the morning when the city gate opened.

Zhou Wei and a few friends gathered to gamble, played until dawn, and lost a lot of money.

The alibi testimony of these three people is worthy of scrutiny.

"What about the bow and crossbow of the Northern Battalion?"

"I asked the Beida camp, there are still thirty-seven bows and crossbows left in the fire, and they are still locked in the armory and have never been used."

Jiang Wanning sighed: "Checking like this is tantamount to looking for a needle in a haystack." ”

If one of the links is fraudulent, the whole thing will have to be overturned.

"But no, there are no valuable clues on the Ministry of Industry, there are visitor records within a month, but only the main visitors are registered, and the entourage has not been registered, the question is, who doesn't bring a few entourages with them?"

"I went to Yongshou Hall again, turned it around several times, and asked Zheng Guanliang to climb up and check it, and the floor tiles were all pried open to check, but I didn't find anything." It is rare for Gu Zhouzhu to encounter such a tricky case.

When they arrived at the Yamen of the Ministry of Industry, the two went to the duty room before Huang Daren's death, and then went to the flower wall.

Jiang Wanning looked in through the diamond-shaped lattice of the flower wall, this distance and angle could shoot into Lord Huang's throat, which was indeed not something that a marksman could do.

As soon as she turned around, Jiang Wanning saw that a handyman in charge of sprinkling and sweeping was looking at them, his eyes were complicated, and he seemed to have something to say.

Jiang Wanning gave Gu Zhou a look.

Gu Zhou stopped thinking and walked over: "Do you have something to say?" ”

The miscellaneous servant stumbled: "The little one doesn't know whether to say it or not." ”

"You say yes, and that's fine."

The handyman said: "Half a month ago, the little one came to sprinkle and sweep, and saw a person standing in the place where the adult was standing just now, and the little one scolded him for what he was doing there, and he left." ”

Gu Zhou's eyes lit up: "Such an important clue, why didn't you say it when you asked before?" ”

The miscellaneous servant said: "There was an accident at the small family, I took seven days off, and I only came back yesterday, and when the little one came back, the government had already finished the investigation." The little one was still hesitant to go to Lord Wei to say, and he met you, the adult. ”

That's a lot of light.

Jiang Wanning said: "Do you remember what that person looks like?" ”

The handyman thought for a moment: "I only have a general impression, I can't remember it clearly." ”

"It's okay, you say, I'll draw." Jiang Wanning said.

It's good to be able to draw a rough one.
