Chapter 15 The game within the game
The subordinate ran into the house in a panic, his face pale.
"How so?"
Ye Lao's brows were slightly locked.
"The two of you were in danger last night, and Pan Danian died at home this morning. It seems that things are getting more and more troublesome. ”
Tang Qingshan and Ye Liuyun glanced at each other, and both of them had doubts in their hearts.
"Uncle, may I ask how Pan Danian's house is going?"
Tang Qingshan felt that cranky thinking here could not solve the problem in front of him, so he decided to go to Pan Danian's house to find out.
"Virtuous nephew, don't you want to take a trip to this troubled water? Our Ye family and the Pan family have conflicts of interest all year round. If you go at this time, I'm afraid you're going to ask for trouble!"
Although Ye Lao didn't say it explicitly, he had been since he met Ye Liuyun. Watching the people of Sumeru Fang play a game for Ye Liuyun, it is not difficult to see that the relationship between them is very bad.
"Uncle, I think it's better to get involved in this matter as soon as possible. First, Pan Danian died at the door of his house for no reason, and the incident itself is very strange! In the middle of the night, why didn't Pan Danian sleep? What did he want to do? Also, who told him to go out? Why did he go out? Second, the situation we saw last night was also very strange. Could there be some connection between them? The most important thing is that the two of us didn't return all night last night, and Pan Danian died just after returning this morning. If someone with a heart wants to make a fuss about us, or the Ye family, how many of us will believe our confessions?"
Listening to Tang Qingshan's calm analysis of the actions in front of him, Ye Lao also seemed to have made up some kind of determination.
"In this way, it seems that our Ye family has to go?"
Ye Liuyun slapped the table and stood up.
"What are you afraid of, the eldest husband acts above board, Brother Tang, I will go with you. We walk right and stand upright. Afraid that others will frame you?"
Looking at his upright son, Old Man Ye was both happy and headache. Ye Liuyun has an upright temperament, but this kind of character will be used by people with intentions. If a circumstance is not good, the son is likely to make a big mistake in this matter. The old man was still trying to say something, but his son had no choice but to pull the young man surnamed Tang and walked towards the door. The old man commanded the butler and hurried out the door.
The three of them came to Pan's house, and the door was already full of people at this time. The people from the City Lord's Mansion haven't come over yet. The ground at the gate of Pan's house was covered with a white cloth, and a woman in her thirties knelt on the street with a young girl in her arms. The crying was heartbreaking, and there was a large crowd of housekeepers and servants around him. Old Man Ye separated left and right and walked into it.
"Brother and sister, please mourn. ”
When the woman saw Ye Lao appear, she cried even more grief and indignation.
My husband has always been tolerant of you on weekdays, and he is even more polite when they meet. Now, in order to monopolize the business of Tiefu City, you actually connived at your rebellious son to murder my husband. ”
The woman's loud rebuke immediately attracted the attention of the onlookers, and unconsciously separated the three of them from the crowd. Tang Qingshan carefully observed the expression on the woman's face, trying to grasp every detail. Ye Liuyun didn't want to be this kind of black pot.
"Nonsense! You woman, you are so vicious! Our Ye family heard that something had happened to your Pan family, so we rushed over as soon as possible. But you are good, and you have spoken badly and seriously injured others! Let me ask you, have you ever seen me commit murder? There is no basis for it! How can you frame me in such a framed case! Last night, I was drinking with Brother Tang in Yuxiang Building, and I was drunk and unconscious in the middle of the night! The entire Yuxiang Building can testify for me!"
Ye Liuyun was reprimanding loudly, and the people from the City Lord's Mansion came slowly!
"Get out of the way! Get out of the way! What's all the fuss about? Hurry up! Scatter, scatter. ”
The leader was a young man in his early thirties, staring at the onlookers with inverted triangular eyes and an expression of extreme annoyance. Dressed in a navy blue robe, he wore a belt around his waist that was reserved for the military generals of the Iron Floating City. Come and pose in front of everyone. commanded the City Lord's Mansion Guards to cordon off the scene.
"My lord! Your lord, you have to make the decision for me, the old thief of the Ye family connived at his rebellious son! Kill my husband first! Now, he insults my Pan family's court! Lord Zhuang, please Lord Zhuang to uphold justice for my lord!"
Master Zhuang? Tang Qingshan glanced at the man in front of him with his eyes, this person was that Zhuang Yu? He really had no place to hide in his iron shoes! He was still thinking about how to find this insidious and vicious person, who would have thought that he would come to the door himself? When the woman saw that the official family was coming, she actually cried and grabbed Ye Liuyun's clothes.
If it was really me who killed this Pan Danian, how could I let you bully you here?"
Ye Liuyunqi's face was pale, but there was no way to take her.
"Oh, Master Ye is also here?"
Zhuang Yu looked at the mess in front of him and had no idea what to do, and followed the woman's gaze to see everyone in the Ye family, and immediately walked over.
"What is Master Ye doing here?"
When he got closer, Zhuang Yu said something to Old Man Ye. However, his eyes were always staring at Ye Liuyun.
"Earlier today, someone from the house came to report that something happened to the Pan family, so I came here on purpose. ”
"Oh, so Master Ye really has a heart, it's rare! The enemy is dead, but he hurriedly came to visit!"
Zhuang Yu looked back at Old Man Ye and said in a weird manner.
"What do you mean?"
Hearing that Zhuang Yu had something to say, Old Man Ye was a little angry.
"It's not interesting! I just admire Ye Lao's affection and righteousness. Okay, let's not gossip! I'll ask Ye Gongzi! I was at home last night!"
As he spoke, the two inverted triangular eyes stared at Ye Liuyun, approaching step by step.
"I wasn't at home last night. ”
Although Ye Liuyun knew that he was probably going to have an accident when he answered like this at this time. But he didn't do anything!
"Oh, your Ye family and the Pan family have always been at odds, and everyone knows it. Last night, Pan Danian of the Pan family died violently on the street, and it happened that Ye Gongzi, you were not in your own mansion? I want to ask Ye Gongzi, how do you explain this matter? Someone! Take Ye Liuyun back to the City Lord's Mansion! Put him in prison!"
Zhuang Yu controlled Ye Liuyun while commanding the soldiers as he spoke.
"Nonsense! You have no evidence! Why do you slander good people? Where is the law of the king? Where is the reason of heaven!"
Ye Liuyun was grabbed by the soldiers' hands and struggled hard, and his face was also flushed.
"There is no evidence? When you and I go back to prison, there will naturally be evidence! As for the royal law you mentioned! In this Tiefu City, the city lord is the king's law! The city lord is well aware of the righteousness! If you are really wronged, he will naturally wash away your grievances and return your innocence!"
Seeing that Ye Liuyun was like a fighting, at this time, because of the anger and blood flow, the blue tendons on his forehead burst out. And his face was purple with anger, and his eyes widened.
"Hugh is presumptuous!"
Seeing that he couldn't do anything, Old Man Ye let out a loud shout and pressed his son's shoulder. Shaking his head slightly, he turned his head to look at Zhuang Yu.
"Lord Zhuang, my son is still young. If there is anything offensive in speaking, please also ask your Excellency Haihan!"
As the old man spoke, he reached out and grabbed Zhuang Yu's palm. After a while, Zhuang Yu understood.
"Mr. Ye is also a reasonable person, don't worry. I'll take your son-in-law back for questioning! If it's really not your son-in-law's doing. I must return his innocence, and I will not wronged Young Master Ye!"
When the woman heard Zhuang Yu's words, she suddenly opened her voice and continued to cry. Zhuang Yu frowned slightly.
"Alright, alright, don't cry. Crying and crying in broad daylight, it's really unlucky. ”
Zhuang Yu turned around, looked at Pan Danian, who was already dead on the ground, and then looked at Ye Liuyun, who was put on the torture instrument, and waved his hand.
"Tell someone to clean up the corpse!
The matter was over, and the Pan family glared at Tang Qingshan and the others, and they both returned to the Pan Mansion. When the onlookers saw that there was no excitement to see, they dispersed one after another. Master Ye was in a hurry at this time.
"Poof~!!"
A mouthful of blood spurted out. Immediately, the whole person was unsteady on his feet. Tang Qingshan was sorting out his thoughts, and when he looked up, he saw Ye Lao spitting blood from his mouth. Take a step forward and hold his body. The old man was already unconscious at this time, Tang Qingshan picked up the old man and quickly ran towards the Ye family's ancestral house. Along the way, the true qi was continuously transported into the old man's body, protecting the old man's heart.
When he returned to Yefu, he ordered someone to find a doctor. Tang Qingshan put Ye Lao on the bed and continued to convey true qi to the old man. After a while, the doctor was invited. Tang Qingshan watched everyone busy, and he couldn't help. Turning around and exiting the door, he walked out of the house.
Now, we must re-sort out the facts of the case! Tang Qingshan walked in the direction of Pan Mansion while recalling in his mind what had happened this morning.
Pan Danian was killed...
Let's go to the scene of the crime...
The woman of the Pan family identified Ye Liuyun...
The officers and soldiers of the City Lord's Mansion are long overdue...
The two sides are arguing...
The woman identified Ye Liuyun again...
Brother Ye was taken away...
Wait, wait, wait! Tang Qingshan felt that something was about to come out of his mind. But I couldn't catch it. Details!Details!Details!Tang Qingshan felt that his head was about to smoke. Enduring a severe headache, he is still analyzing the current situation.
Before I knew it, I walked to the door of Pan's house. Fortunately, I came back in time, and the people from Pan Mansion did not clean this place. Tang Qingshan carefully observed the surroundings, although there were many footprints. However, no traces of the struggle were found. This shows that Pan Danian went out voluntarily at that time! Moreover, it is very likely that the two people knew each other! When they came to the place where the body was placed, only a little blood stain remained on the ground! It seems that the perpetrator used a very sharp weapon, sharp enough to kill Pan Danian with a single blow!
Seeing that there were no more useful clues, Tang Qingshan slowly walked around the Pan Mansion, observing and analyzing. In the middle of the night, Pan Danian came out of the house, when did he come out? Why didn't his wife know? Well, even if his wife slept too deeply. Do the people in the house know? Why didn't the official ask about these details?
Walking to the gate of Pan Mansion again, looking at the gate, Tang Qingshan only felt that the sky above Pan Mansion was full of suspicions.
