After Zhao Liang finished dressing, he hurried to the living room, Zeng Tai was eating tea there, and when he saw Zhao Liang coming in, he quickly got up and saluted, "Di Gongzi, Zeng Mou came uninvited, it was very presumptuous, and I hope to forgive me." ()”

Zhao Liang hurriedly returned the salute and said, "Where, where, Zeng Gongzi is really serious." ”

"Di Gongzi, I'm just a fool, you can call me by my name, Zeng Gongzi really dare not be called this title. ”

In the Tang Dynasty, it was a profession that was not in the stream, although Zeng Tai was very talented, but he had never had the opportunity to get ahead, he was very low-key, people called him by his name on weekdays, only Zhao Liang was polite to him, commensurate with Zeng Gongzi, which flattered him and was very panicked.

Zhao Liang listened to Zeng Tai's words, patted him on the shoulder, motioned for him to sit down, and said, "Zeng Gongzi, there is no distinction between high and low professions, but the division of labor is different. ”

When Zeng Tai heard this, he couldn't help but feel hot in his heart, this sentence simply went to his heart, and his good impression of Zhao Liang rose geometrically for a while, leading him to be a confidant.

"Di Gongzi is really knowledgeable and reasonable, and he is really a model for scholars. ”

Zhao Liang waved his hand and said, "Where is it, Brother Zeng is really serious." I don't know what happened when Brother Zeng came to me today?"

"I came here today to discuss with Brother Di, can I ask Brother Di to go out of the mountain and help me catch the real murderer together, I am only good at autopsy, and I am not good at analyzing the case. ”

When Zhao Liang heard this, he couldn't help but rejoice, "That's great, I'm good at analysis, but I don't know anything about autopsy, if I can have Brother Zeng to help, the two of us are definitely invincible golden partners." ”

It was the first time Zeng Tai had heard the word partner, and he asked puzzledly, "Brother Di, what does partner mean?"

Only then did Zhao Liang realize that he had misused words, and he took modern words and used them, no wonder Zeng Tai couldn't understand them.

"A partner is a good partner, a good friend, we are good partners, you say?"

Zeng Tai nodded and said, "That's right. ”

Zhao Liang asked, "Brother Zeng, you haven't eaten yet, have you?"

"To tell you the truth, I came to see Brother Di early in the morning, and my stomach was really a little hungry. ”

Zeng Tai's honesty made Zhao Liang appreciate it very much, and he laughed and said, "I'm hungry too, let's eat first and talk while eating." ”

Zhao Liang took Zeng Tai to the living room for breakfast, and the breakfast in Difu was very simple, just fritters, soy milk buns, pickles, or something.

Zeng Tai said with emotion, "Di Gongzi, it is said outside that your family is rich, eating, drinking, prostituting and gambling, and you are poor and luxurious. ”

Zhao Liang said with a smile, "Rumors stop at the wise, let him say whatever gossip others like, people are afraid of being famous, pigs are afraid of being strong, I am also a little famous in Bingzhou City, many people with ulterior motives will be red-eyed, they will be jealous, and it is inevitable that they will spread rumors and make trouble, but people are not afraid of shadows, as long as you have not done something, you will naturally be innocent, and after a period of time, you will naturally be clear of yourself, and those who are turbid will be turbid, and there is nothing to justify." ”

Zeng Tai praised, "Brother Di is really open-minded, which makes Zeng Tai admire him very much, come, I salute you with a bowl of soy milk." ”

Zhao Liang smiled, "Haha, okay, it's interesting to replace wine with soy milk." Come on, let's have a bowl. ”

After the two finished eating, they chatted about Liu Qiyuan's murder in the living room.

"Brother Zeng, do you have anything special about you?"

"I saw a footprint on Liu Qiyuan's coat. ”

"Footprints?"

"Yes. ”

Zhao Liang thought for a moment and said, "I think this footprint must have been left by the murderer." ”

"That's what I thought, too. ”

"Are the footprints particularly noticeable? or are they only shallow?"

"It's so obvious, you can see it at a glance. ”

Zhao Liang frowned and thought about it again, and said, "The murderer obviously came in from the outside, not those sons and brothers who came to participate in the selection of sons-in-law. ”

Zeng Taiqi said, "Why is Brother Di so sure?"

"You think, it snowed heavily yesterday, and those sons-in-law who chose sons-in-law were all in the hall of the Drunken Immortal Building, even if they came out, there was snow everywhere, how could the soles of their shoes be dirty, they must have just mixed in with outsiders, and there was a lot of muddy water on their feet, after he killed Liu Qiyuan, Liu Qiyuan must have held him tightly, and he raised a foot and kicked on Liu Qiyuan, so the footprints would be so obvious. ”

Zeng Tai said with admiration, "Brother Di's analysis is very reasonable, it's like seeing it in person, so how do we start?"

"Let's go to the Drunken Immortal Tower, and see who has entered the Drunken Immortal Tower yesterday, there should be the clues we want. ”

Zhao Liang and Zeng Tai got up and walked out of the hall and walked towards the gate of Di Mansion, Di An shouted from behind, "Young Master, where are you going?"

"I'm going to go to the Drunken Immortal Tower. ”

Dean hurriedly said, "You wait for me to call you a sedan chair." ”

"Alright, I'll go by myself, you don't have to worry about it. ”

Dean said again, "Young Master, I asked Yuan Fang to accompany you." ”

"Okay, then you go and call Yuan Fang out. ”

After a while, Li Yuanfang ran out as if he was flying, and said happily, "Young master, young master, I will go out with you today." ”

"Why don't you just go out, look at you happily, as if you haven't been out before, when won't you run out?"

Li Yuanfang said with a smile, "That's different, today I went out with the young master." ”

"Alright, alright, let's go. ”

Zhao Liang and the three of them walked out of the gate of the Di Mansion and walked in the direction of the Drunken Immortal Tower.

Yesterday's heavy snow stopped in the middle of the night, and today is a sunny day, and the snow is beginning to melt slowly, and the ground is full of mud.

After a while, mud spots were splashed all over the trouser legs, but the three of them couldn't care about this.

On the way, there were groups of disaster victims from the countryside who came to the city to beg, Zhao Liang took out a lot of copper coins from his arms and distributed them to them, causing these people to follow them far away, Zhao Liang repeatedly said that he really had no money on him, and those who did not get the money left in a huff.

A heavy snowfall is auspicious in the eyes of dignitaries and nobles, beautiful scenery in the eyes of literati and scholars, but it is a disaster in the eyes of ordinary people.

The three of them walked for almost half an hour before they arrived at the Zuixian Building, the Zuixian Building had been sealed, and there were two officials from the Zhizhou Yamen standing at the door, seeing Zhao Liang and the three of them coming, they shouted, "What are the three of you doing?

Zeng Tai stepped forward and said, "Wang Bantou, I am Zeng Tai, the servant of the Zhizhou Yamen, I want to go to the Drunken Immortal Building to find evidence again, don't you know that the people in the Drunken Immortal Mansion are still inside?"

Wang Bantou said, "This place has been sealed, no one can enter without the order of Lord Zhizhou, the people of the Drunken Immortal Building have already gone home, there are dead people here, who is still staying here?"

"Wang Bantou, do you know where these people live? I also want to try my best to find clues and solve the case, otherwise, if this case is not solved, not only will Lord Chen of Zhizhou not be protected, but we will also be unlucky." ”

"I know what you said, but there are a lot of people in the Drunken Immortal Building, where can I know?

"That's right, thank you Wang Bantou for reminding me, then let's go to Ma Yunteng to ask about the situation first, I don't know where he lives?"

"Ma Yunteng lives in Qianliang Hutong in the east of the city, you go there to find it. ”

The three of them rushed to Qianliang Hutong, Ma Yunteng is a huge rich man in Bingzhou City, the horse house occupies a large area, but it is second to none in the Qianliang Hutong, and the three of them easily found the horse house.

Ma Yunteng heard that the Zhizhou Yamen was coming, and hurriedly asked people to come in, but he wanted to quickly clear up his grievances, find the real culprit, and open the door as soon as possible.

Ma Huateng greeted Zhao Liang and the three of them in the living room, and when he saw them come in, he greeted them with a smile on his face.

"I don't know which one is Zeng Zuo from the state government yamen?"

Zeng Tai arched his hand and said, "It's down there." ”

"Oh, it's really young and promising, I have long heard that there is a very powerful Zeng Zuo in the state yamen, as long as he has examined the body, then there is no omission, I thought it was an old man who was dozens of years old, but I didn't expect it to be a young man, it was really surprising. ”

I have to say that Ma Yunteng is really good at talking, a businessman, he knows what to see.

When Zeng Tai heard this, he hurriedly said, "Shopkeeper Martha, I came here today mainly to find out the situation, and I hope that Shopkeeper Mara can know everything." ”

Ma Yunteng said again and again, "Certainly, definitely, I also want to find out the truth quickly, so that the Drunken Immortal Building can be unsealed as soon as possible." ”

"Shopkeeper Martha, I want to ask, who entered the Drunken Immortal Building yesterday?"

Ma Yunteng said, "Yesterday, Miss Shangguan Shan chartered the venue, and those who came in must have come to apply for the election." ”

"Shopkeeper Martha, maybe I can't tell me clearly, I just want to ask if there were any suspicious people who entered the Drunken Immortal Building yesterday?"

"Suspicious people? Then I really didn't notice. Yesterday it snowed heavily, I have always been more afraid of the cold, so I hid in the house and hugged the stove to eat hot pot, whether there were any suspicious people in it, it is really hard to say. So I called the people to ask. ”

Ma Yunteng asked the housekeeper to call in a group of domestic servants and maids who were doing chores in the Drunken Immortal Building.

A group of people all cowered and walked in, they all knew about the murder case born yesterday, and when they heard that someone from the Zhizhou Yamen came to ask them, they were all nervous, and they didn't know what to ask.

There are really a lot of people in the Drunken Immortal Building in the Ma Mansion, there are about seventy or eighty people, and a hall is quickly full.

Ma Yunteng asked, "Steward Li, have all the people arrived?"

"Master Qiqi, it's all here. ”

Ma Yunteng said with a stiff face, "You all listen to me, Zeng Yanzuo of the Zhizhou Yamen wants to ask questions, you all answer well, if anyone dares to conceal it and not report it, I will definitely not spare it, and I will send it to the government to go to prison." ”

A group of people were already scared, and when they heard that they were going to prison, they were even more frightened, and their faces were as pale as dirt.
