Chapter 133: The Cause of Death

Geng Jingzhong soon arrived at the Wei family in the east of the city, the head of the Wei family, nicknamed Wei Dongcheng, is a famous jeweler in Kyoto, Wei Dongcheng three words mean that his financial resources are enough to buy the entire Dongcheng. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

Geng Jingzhong came here because this Wei Dongcheng was inexplicably killed last night, and he also lost a lot of jewelry.

There were a large number of officials guarding the door of the Wei Mansion, and thanks to the golden token of King Shou, Geng Jingzhong entered the gate of the mansion without any words.

The Wei house is very large, the courtyard is set with a small courtyard, the main house is connected to the side room, twists and turns like a labyrinth, Geng Jingzhong came to the scene of the murder, the inner house bedroom of Wei Dongcheng.

The bedroom was gorgeously decorated, extremely luxurious, and his eyes were full of copper smell, Geng Jingzhong frowned, and stepped into the inner room.

There is a purple sandalwood screen inside and outside, and when you step through the screen, you will see a male corpse on the ground, dressed in pajamas, lying on his back on the ground of green bricks, and the flesh and blood in his throat are blurred, and he is miserable.

Geng Jingzhong flashed his eyes and looked at the big bed carved with red sandalwood, there was a woman on the bed, lying flat on the bed, covered with a brocade quilt, her eyes were closed, if it weren't for the tearing of her throat, she would have thought she was asleep.

Geng Jingzhong looked around the room again, and found that the cabinet doors in front of the bed were all open, there was no doubt that the good things in it had already been looted, Geng Jingzhong didn't bother to look at it, his eyes turned to other places, and suddenly there was a picture of Tang Yin's beauty on the wall that aroused his interest, and it was not how vivid the beauty in the painting was, which made him feel distracted. It's that the painting hangs a little off, but most people don't pay attention to that.

Geng Jingzhong walked over slowly, gently rolled up the painting scroll, and found that there was a dark pavilion inside the wall, and when he opened the small door of the dark pavilion, it was empty!

Geng Jingzhong turned around and asked the official who was following him, "Has your master found out about this dark pavilion?"

The official shook his head and said, "This is the first time I've found out. ”

Geng Jingzhong pointed to the young woman in the big bed and said, "Who is she from Wei Dongcheng?"

The official replied: "This has been clarified, she is Wei Dongcheng's concubine, named Feng'er." ”

Geng Jingzhong asked again: "Who is in charge of this Wei Mansion now?"

The official thought for a while and said, "It's the eldest lady, and she's not in charge, it's just" that there is really no one in charge of this Wei Mansion."

Geng Jingzhong said: "How do you say this?"

The servant said: "This eldest lady is old and decrepit, and she has long been unfavored, since she entered the door of this phoenix, the status of the eldest lady is even more precarious, and then this eldest lady does not ask about the world, and eats fasting and recites Buddha all day long!

Geng Jingzhong was very curious and asked, "How do you know such a county body?"

The official said embarrassedly: "These are all things that I know when I listen to people's gossip!"

Geng Jingzhong ordered: "Call that eldest lady, I have something to ask her!"

The official went out, and the hour was short, and he led a middle-aged woman in.

The woman walked outside the screen at noon, and refused to take any further steps. He kept muttering, "Sin!

Geng Jingzhong didn't embarrass her, he paced out of the screen in understanding, and lit up and down the middle-aged woman.

She looked at the ground in fear, wondering why she had been brought to this dangerous place.

Geng Jingzhong asked straight to the point: "You are the eldest lady?"

The middle-aged woman nodded, answering Geng Jingzhong's question.

Geng Jingzhong continued to ask, "Do you know that there is a treasure pavilion in this room?"

The middle-aged woman hesitated for a long time before she said slowly: "There is one, behind that painting." ”

Geng Jingzhong asked again, "What's hidden there?"

The middle-aged woman said in horror, "Could it be that the contents have also been stolen?"

Geng Jingzhong nodded in confirmation!

The middle-aged woman almost fell down in fright, and said in her mouth: "It's over, it's over, it's a big loss!"

Geng Jingzhong was very curious as to why she reacted so strongly. Curious, he asked, "What's in there?"

The middle-aged woman said desperately: "That's a pair of Hetian jade lions, they are the heirlooms of the Wei family, and they are priceless!"

Geng Jingzhong suddenly remembered that he didn't see a jade lion among the stolen goods found in King Shou's Mansion!

The middle-aged woman said bitterly, "I'm not sure, I live in this room." ”

Geng Jingzhong stopped talking, after the official sent the eldest lady away, he looked at the two deceased people carefully, and always felt that something was wrong, he paced back and forth in the room, looked at this and that, and finally he found the problem, although the wounds of these two people were very tragic, but their expressions were not hideous.

Why is that? This is unreasonable! The wound is a torn mark of a raccoon claw, and normal people will struggle and fear when attacked, but these two are so calm! It's incomprehensible calm!

Geng Jingzhong was puzzled, but the scene of the Wei Mansion had been investigated, and he couldn't find any flaws, so Geng Jingzhong left the Wei Mansion and rode to the north city.

It was Wang Dashan who died in Beicheng, and Geng Jingzhong made no new discoveries in the palace, but Wang Dashanren's death and demeanor were no different from those in the Wei Mansion.

Geng Jingzhong transferred to the Zhou Mansion in Xicheng and the Cao Mansion in Nancheng, and the results obtained were similar to the previous two, the methods of committing the crime were the same, and the demeanor of the deceased was the same.

Geng Jingzhong rode towards Dali Temple, thinking about the answer, until he came to Dali Temple, he didn't understand why it was like that.

After showing the gold medal and explaining his intentions, Geng Jingzhong was taken into prison.

He came to Dali Temple to tell the Dong Sicheng about his new discovery, and at the same time to see if the little witch had suffered.

Walking through the dark and narrow passage, seeing the unkempt prisoners in the cells on both sides, and hearing the hoarse howls of the prisoners when the jailer whipped the prisoners, Geng Jingzhong's heart hung up, and he was afraid that the little witch would also suffer from this. Thinking of this, he quickened his pace.

Walking to the innermost end, the jailer pushed open a solid big iron door, Geng Jingzhong flashed and walked in, and when he saw the scene inside, he was stunned!

I saw that the lights inside were brilliant, and there were no torture instruments for interrogation, nor wolf-like servants!

Against the backdrop of the brilliant lights, it is a big square table, and the cups and plates on the square table are all good dishes, and it is the craftsmanship of Guangyuan Building at a glance!

Around the square table, there are four people sitting, they are Dong Sicheng, the head catcher and the head of the work, above the main seat is the little witch, she is holding a wine glass, is eyebrows fluttering and talking, she and Geng Jingzhong went to Dali all kinds of legendary experiences! A few people on the seat listened with relish, and asked from time to time, and the little witch was also happy to answer.

Everyone found Geng Jingzhong at this time, and they all stood up to say hello, and Geng Jingzhong also returned the salute one by one.

The little witch jumped up, came to Geng Jingzhong's approach, and pulled him into the table.

Dong Sicheng asked Geng Jingzhong: "Why did you come here?"

Geng Jingzhong unreservedly recounted the process and results of his exploration of the four families, as well as his doubts.

Everyone was speechless for a while, and after a while, suddenly the little witch said in surprise: "Brother Geng!
