Chapter XXXVII

"Oh, please!"

Bai Fan stood up and ordered Zhang Yi to quickly invite the two in, Zhang Yi was ordered to go, and after a while, he saw the two figures coming step by step. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

Swish!

Almost the moment the two of them walked into the hall, everyone's eyes were focused on Xuan Xi's side, the figure in green clothes.

This person is naturally Longzun.

But seeing that he is the same as the Ice King, although his actual age is not small, he has outstanding physical skills and profound internal strength, so that he is always young and does not show a trace of old age.

From the outside, he is only in his thirties, wearing a green coat, carrying a long sword, and his temperament is dusty, like a fairy of the nine heavens.

Everyone looked at Long Zun with their mouths wide open.

Xue Tianhan couldn't help but glance at the Ice King - completely different from someone!

The Ice King looked at his apprentice very hurtly, and then pouted and glanced at Long Zun with extreme dissatisfaction.

Long Zun smiled bitterly, he knew this old guy's temperament very well, so he didn't plan to deal with him.

But the other party has to provoke himself.

From the time he came in to meet him until he sat down in his seat, the Ice King's gaze was fixed on Long Zun, like that, as if he owed him a few hundred taels of silver.

In the end, Long Zun was annoyed by him.

"What the hell do you want to do, old fellow?"

The Ice King didn't say a word, just looked at Xue Tianhan, and at the same time raised his eyebrows slightly--Look!

Xuan Xi smiled secretly on the side.

The two people in front of them are all legendary figures with a high reputation in the temples of the rivers and lakes, how can they behave like children?

With a wry smile, she handed over a dry file in her hand to Chen Yutian.

"Senior brother, all the information you want is here, and in addition, there is a secret decree written to you by the imperial brother here, I hope you will take it. ”

As he spoke, he handed over a sealed scroll.

"Okay:"

Chen Yutian took it, opened the scroll first, and quickly browsed it.

After reading it, his brow furrowed slightly.

Everyone was surprised.

Bai Fan asked, "Brother Chen, what happened?"

"There was a bizarre murder case in the capital recently, and the emperor ordered me to end the case here this morning and go to the capital to solve the murder case. ”

Tatsu Yutian gently closed the scroll.

"I see!" everyone nodded.

Bai Fan said: "Then without further ado, let's start investigating." ”

Everyone nodded, and began to flip through the information brought by Xuan Xi.

Chen Yutian quickly read the file recording the official silver robbery, and at this moment, he suddenly heard an exclamation, which suddenly sounded!

"So it's him?!"

When the voice fell, everyone looked up at Bai Fan, and the voice came from his mouth.

At this moment, Bai Fan was holding the library file and staring at one of the pages, his face full of disbelief!

"Brother Bai, what's wrong?"

Xue Tianhan looked at him and asked.

Bai Fan didn't notice his gaffe just now, and spoke: "It turns out that the county magistrate of Baishan County twenty years ago was Fang Meng!"

As soon as these words came out, all four were shocked!

Xue Tianhan took the warehouse file for the first time, took a closer look, and finally nodded slightly: "That's true!"

I saw that on the top of the treasury file, it was written: Xuande fifteen years, served as the county magistrate of Baishan County, Qingzhou, and was clean and peaceful, without fault......

"In this way, the county order that intersected with Wan Fang'an and Li Xian back then was Fang Meng!"

Gongsun said suddenly, and then touched his chin and groaned slightly.

"Li Xian died 20 years ago, and now Wan Fang'an and Fang Meng have also been killed one after another, which ...... It's weird. ”

"Brother Xue, let me take a look. ”

Chen Yutian took the warehouse file, and after taking a look, his eyes suddenly stared: "I see!"

Xue Tianhan asked, "What did you find?"

"This Fang Meng is the henchman of King Ye Hong!"

Chen Yutian gently closed the warehouse file and smiled faintly.

"What?

Xue Tianhan, Gongsun, and Xuan Xi were all surprised.

"That's right, the reason why this person can become a squire in the Criminal Department is because of the promotion of King Xian. ”

Chen Yutian nodded slightly, turned out a page in the library file, and showed it to everyone.

After everyone saw it, they nodded one after another, indeed, as he said, Fang Mengneng became a waiter in the Criminal Department, and it was recommended by King Ye Hong.

"In this way, this Meng Guo is really a henchman of the king, but if this is the case, why did he, the person who was recommended, not be implicated in the incident of offering the king?"

Gongsun was a little puzzled.

Chen Yutian smiled slightly: "Gongsun, you must have read too many ancient books......

"Oh, why did you say that?"

"The emperor of this dynasty, Shengming, has improved the recommendation system, as long as the recommended person has real talent and learning, and has made a difference, then even if the recommended person commits a heinous crime, he will not be implicated, unless there is some clear evidence to prove it. ”

"I see. Gongsun nodded slightly.

Chen Yutian nodded and said, "However, it seems that there must be an inside story about the deaths of Wan Fang'an and Fang Meng, and it seems that it needs to be investigated." ”

"But, how can we check? We don't have any clues at all now!" Bai Fan was helpless.

"No!"

Chen Yutian categorically denied it and said with a smile: "We still have an important clue!"

"Oh?" Bai Fanqi said.

Chen Yutian smiled, then stood up, and said, "It seems that I am going to go to Zhujiazhuang again." Brother Bai, my master and he, I will bother you to entertain me first. ”

After that, he hugged his fist slightly at Long Zun, but he didn't say a word and left.

Long Zun smiled bitterly.

He has naturally seen the character of his own apprentice who forgets everything once he devotes himself to something.

However, in the past, he would ignore everything around him, and this time he actually remembered to arrange for someone to entertain him as a master.

It can be seen that there is still progress.

Bai Fan looked at Chen Yutian's departing back in surprise, confused, and asked Xue Tianhan on the side: "What did he go to Zhujiazhuang to check?"

Xue Tianhan looked up and thought about it, and finally shook his head - I don't know.

Gongsun thought about it, and his eyes flashed.

"Probably...... If there is any clue in this case, it should be her......

......

......

Indeed, Gongsun did not guess wrong, the purpose of Chen Yutian's trip was indeed the little maid who found the body twice.

Chen Yutian thought about it many times, but he couldn't let go of the fact that he found the body twice in a row.

This is too coincidental!

So, he decided to personally investigate this little maid, and by the way, confirm the speculation in his heart. I hope to find a breakthrough in the whole case from him!

So, he visited Zhujiazhuang again.

After explaining his intention to Zhu Zheng, Zhu Zheng immediately sent someone to call the little maid over.

"I've seen the master!"

The little maid bowed to Zhu Zheng very timidly, and the corner of her eyes, as if she was shy, glanced at Chen Yutian on the side.

"This is a friend of the county master, he has something he wants to ask you, and you must answer truthfully, you know?"

Looking at the little girl, Zhu Zheng's voice was very strong.

The little maid nodded weakly and whispered, "The slave must answer truthfully!"

Chen Yutian saw his cowardice, so he said to Zhu Zheng: "Owner, there are some things I want to ask her alone, I wonder if the owner can find a secluded place for us?"

"Why is Childe like this, if you have anything to say, just ask here. Zhu Zheng frowned slightly and said.

Chen Yutian said with a smile: "How can this be? Some things must be questioned separately, and I hope that the owner of the village will make it convenient." ”

"This ......"

Zhu Zheng looked at Chen Yutian, pondered for a long time, and finally sighed: "That's it, since the son is so insistent, then follow me ......"

After that, Zhu Zheng took the two of them to a corner wing room in Beiyuan.

"This was my daughter's former boudoir, but now that she is married, this place has been idle for a long time, so I think it should meet the requirements of my son. ”

"That's great!"

Chen Yutian stroked his palms and smiled, and immediately pushed the door and entered the room with the little maid.

"I also hope that the owner of the village will go to rest for a while, and after the questioning is completed, I will go to inform the owner. ”

"Good!"

Zhu Zheng nodded, and then left, never looking back.

Chen Yutian closed the door and looked at the little girl.

The little maid stood there at a loss, her body trembling slightly, looking very timid.

Chen Yutian smiled slightly: "You don't have to be afraid, there is no malice in the next place, but there are a few questions related to the case that you want to ask." ”

Hearing this, the girl's timidity eased somewhat, but there was still a faint look of fear in her eyes.

Chen Yutian smiled kindly and asked, "What's your name?"

"Little ...... Xiaoling!"

The girl's voice was extremely low, and she spat out two words weakly.

"So, could you tell us more about the circumstances of the discovery of the body? Chen Yutian smiled slightly.

"Good...... Good. ”

Xiao Ling nodded slightly, and then said: "When I found Master Wan's body, I remembered that I was ordered by my wife to bring him evening tea, but when I arrived, I found that the light inside was extinguished, so I thought he was asleep, so I didn't bother him......"

"But when I'm done and I get back......"

She described the scene to Chen Yutian in detail......

That night, North Garden.

After Xiao Ling finished the things her wife explained, when she passed the room where Wan Fangan lived again, her expression suddenly moved.

Because, she saw that the lights in the room were actually on.

A huge black shadow was still shaking on the door, looking rather strange.

"General Wan, are you awake?"

Xiao Ling stepped forward and knocked on the door, but there was no response.

Because she was very concerned about the dark shadow swaying on the door, and no one answered when she kept knocking on the door, she opened the door.

"General Wan, excuse me!!"

Xiao Ling opened the door, and immediately afterward, she saw Wan Fang'an's headless corpse hanging from the beam.

She let out a scream.

......

"You should know the rest of the matter, Childe......"

There was a slight hint of horror in Xiao Ling's expression, obviously lingering on the scene that day.

Chen Yutian nodded and said, "Yes." However, I want to confirm with you again, was the door of Wanfang'an really not locked at that time?"

"Of course, because I just pushed the door open with a slight push, it shouldn't be possible to lock it. Xiao Ling nodded hurriedly.

"I see. ”

Chen Yutian nodded: "I understand, then please tell me about the situation when Fang Meng's body was found!"

"Okay. ”

Xiao Ling nodded......
