The Dali Temple System of Crossing

Chapter 22 Suspicion
Xia Hao rolled his eyes at Cui Ge's confident words after hearing them.

"The officers and soldiers have already questioned the details of these three people and what they saw and heard yesterday, and there are no clues."

"There is no clue?" Cui Ge frowned, and then looked at the old man Dai.

"Mr. Dai, I haven't seen you for a day, do you still remember?" Cui Ge asked with a smile.

When Old Man Dai saw Cui Ge, he smiled awkwardly and bowed: "I'm so blind, I didn't expect that Xiao Langjun was a member of the government. However, at this inn yesterday, my master spent a lot of money to prevent Xiao Lang from letting him go." Mr. Lang has moved in, and I hope that Mr. Lang will forgive me."

Seeing the old man Dai like this, Cui Ge nodded: "Let me ask you, who was the distinguished guest that your master met here last night? Also, last night in the house you gave me, I saw A woman in black, that woman in black also ran to the station in the end, can you explain these two incidents?"

Seeing that Cui Ge asked these two questions, the old man Dai was speechless for a while, glanced at the woman behind him inadvertently, and then replied: "Little man, we are servants who never care about my master's affairs." I will ask questions, so I really don't know who the master will meet at night, but I can tell you about the woman in black. The woman in black is my master's servant, but today, she disappeared Already!"

Cui Ge narrowed his eyes slightly after hearing this explanation, this old man Dai is lying!
Then Trigg said coldly: "Are you sure what you said is the truth? I will give you another chance. If you don't tell the truth again, you will be served with a board!"

After hearing Cui Ge's words, old man Dai looked terrified, but still insisted that what he said was the truth.

When Trigg saw this, a sneer appeared at the corner of his mouth, and he immediately took out the white handkerchief from his arms, then pointed at the woman behind Old Man Dai and asked: "Do you know this handkerchief? There is also something on this handkerchief flowers!”

Seeing Cui Ge take out the handkerchief, the woman's body trembled slightly, and the original crying sound also stopped abruptly at this moment.

The woman stood up, her face was a little ugly, she shook her lips, and said: "Old servant, forget it, I can't hide this matter, yes, this handkerchief is indeed mine, and the woman in black last night is also mine." But, I didn't kill Aye, I slept in my room after I returned to the post last night, and my maidservant can testify to me about this."

Saying this, the woman called a maidservant.

Seeing this, the maid nodded repeatedly and said, "That's right, my young lady didn't kill anyone, my young lady has been in the room all the time."

"Oh? In the room all the time? What are you doing in the room? Why are you wearing night clothes at night? And why are you hiding in the courtyard and listening to me?" Cui Ge pressed on step by step, making the woman unable to breathe Chance!
Seeing Cui Ge asking, the woman replied: "I...I wear night clothes at night because I don't want Aye to know that I left the post station, and there are things I left behind in your courtyard, so I went in wearing night clothes , but I didn’t expect that you would come in just after I took the things, so I had to hide!”

"Take things? What kind of things do you need to wear night clothes to get? It's better to say stealing than stealing!" Cui Ge sneered.

The woman became impatient when she heard the stolen word, and said: "I just went to get a jade pendant, that jade pendant was given to me by my beloved, but it was thrown away in the courtyard by Aye yesterday, ah Aye has always disagreed with my marriage with Wan Lang, so if I said to find Yupei, Aye would definitely not allow me to go out, so I went out in the middle of the night!"

After hearing this explanation, Cui Ge fell silent. According to what the woman said, it was reasonable.However, there are still many loopholes in this woman's words, and even this matter is a bit reluctant!
And after Cui Ge fell silent, Xia Hao stood up, looked at the woman, and said indifferently: "No matter what reason you wore night clothes last night, there was a murder case last night, and the case is not closed yet. Before, you were suspected! And your servant just told a lie, so both of you are seriously suspected!"

Xia Hao said and immediately asked two officers and soldiers to arrest him!

But Zhang Yue looked at the woman coldly, and said: "I recognize you, you are Master Xue's second daughter, Xue Dingqing!"

Seeing this, the woman looked at Zhang Yue, nodded repeatedly and said, "Little lady knows me?"

"Of course I know each other. Speaking of which, the story of you and Wanmao has already been spread in Tanzhou. I have a good memory. I have seen it twice, so I recognize it." Zhang Yue said.

When Xue Dingqing saw Zhang Yue mentioning the name Wan Mao, his eyes were humorous, and he said, "Unfortunately, Wan Lang has been sent to the north by me, Aye, to join the army."

…………

After some conversations, Cui Ge finally learned about Xue Dingqing's love history. It turned out that Xue Dingqing's lover was sent to join the army by Master Xue. He, but in fact, after Master Xue sent Wan Mao away, he introduced various high-ranking men to Xue Dingqing.However, Xue Dingqing is still relatively loyal to love, and she has not wavered in the slightest.

And at this moment, there was a sound of a shift outside the post station.Then there was the patter of rain.

Trager knew it was raining!

"Yue'er, escort the two of them back to Tanzhou City first, and send the body back to Tanzhou City too. I'll stay here tonight, and you can go back first." Cui Ge said.

Indeed, when we first came here, it was only dark, and now it was already over, and two hours later, Cui Ge didn't pay attention to the time.

Seeing that Cui Ge wanted to stay here, Zhang Yue nodded and said, "Alright, maybe you can find clues here. If you can solve the case, that would be even better!"

The case cannot be found out at once, and nothing can be found through cross-examination here. The correct solution can only be obtained after the suspect is escorted back to Tanzhou City for interrogation.

Immediately, those officers and soldiers braved the rain all night and rode back to Tanzhou on horseback.As for Zhang Yue and Xia Hao, they asked for a carriage at this post station, took two suspects with them, and a dead body!
And Trager left the crowd with a handkerchief tightly in his hand.

Cui Ge's perception told Cui Ge that one of the old man Dai and Xue Dingqing must have some clues. At least, someone must know who the person Xue Master saw last night!
To receive distinguished guests, even the post station is covered, the identity of this distinguished guest should not be open and aboveboard, if it is open and aboveboard, why is it at the post station, but also in this remote Majia Village, why not in Tanzhou City, why not in Xue's Mansion, this series of questions , circling in Trager's mind.
