Chapter 157 The Child Who Looks Exactly Like Qi Wu

Li Deqing shook his head, "No."

"Have you searched the mountains?" Chen Chaoyan asked again.

Li Deqing nodded, "I searched, but found nothing."

After a pause, he continued: "Mount Achang is not an isolated mountain. There are Chongma Mountain, Du'an Mountain, Fuhua Mountain, etc. next to it. The forests on these mountains are very lush. If Shan deliberately hides it, it will be almost difficult to find him."

Hearing this, Chen Chaoyan instinctively looked at the light screen.Achang Mountain is indeed surrounded by many mountains. At the foot of these mountains, one or two villages can occasionally be seen, but the forests on the mountain are lush, and apparently none of them have been developed.Looking away, closing the case, Chen Chaoyan said: "Master Li, please find another vacant room for me."

Li Deqing asked: "Miss Chen wants to interrogate Mrs. Yang?"

Chen Chaoyan corrected him and said, "To be precise, I want to know something about her. After Mr. Li invites her in, please send someone to invite Li Wei and Sun Huairen's family."

Li Deqing looked at Xie Xuan.

Xie Xuan lazily said: "Miss Chen's order is my king's order, and everything will be followed."

Li Deqing said yes with his hand, then turned around and arranged to go.

The vacant house arranged by Li Deqing was in the Guanzhu Building not far from Qingfengmingyueyuan and Shuyingyinxiangyuan where the two stayed.

The two walked over slowly, and when Yue Jian accompanied the servants and Wen Mo to make tea, Mrs. Yang in plain clothes also arrived.It was the same as when we were on the street before. As soon as she entered the house, she pulled a pair of cowardly children to the ground, kowtowed and shouted: "I beg the lord to be the master of my concubine. Our lord was wronged. He didn't kill anyone."

After Chen Chaoyan asked Yue Jian to help her up, she first looked at the pair of children beside her.Both of them lowered their heads, unable to see their faces clearly.But judging from the body shape, the older one is about thirteen or fourteen years old, while the younger one is only about ten years old.Looking at Mrs. Yang again, from the appearance, she is only 34 or 50 years old.But she remembered that Yang Shan's age in the case record was more than 60 years old, almost [-] years old.

Fearing that he misunderstood, Chen Chaoyan took the case file over and read it again. After making sure that he remembered correctly, he asked, "Ms. Yang, right? Tell me about the situation on the day when the case happened."

Mrs. Yang obviously knew her too. When she heard her question, she immediately answered: "It was Yang Wei and Sun Huairen who came to the shop to look for the master on the day of the incident. The Achang Mountain that was dragged away by force. Usually, the master goes out to drink and have fun, and he will go home before dark. That day, he has not come back after dark, and the concubine is worried about her safety. She even went to the homes of Yang Wei and Sun Huairen with a lamp to find , both of them reassured me that there is no need to worry, the three of them may not know where to drink flower wine. I dare not go to Achang Mountain alone, so I had to go home and wait. I didn't expect to wait all night, but it came like this news..."

Mrs. Yang started to cry as she spoke, "Our master has always been kind. When we met a beggar on the road, he would stop and throw a few coins before leaving. How could he kill someone? A traitor must have killed them both. , framed my master!"

Chen Chaoyan glanced at the two children who were also crying, and asked her, "Has your master come back after the accident?"

"Our master also wants to come back," Madam Yang cried, "but the murderous traitor that day will definitely arrest our master after killing the two of them. Our master still doesn't know where he is being imprisoned to suffer. Beg Chen Please do me a favor, girl, I have a father and mother, and a pair of children to support, please help our master."

As she spoke, she dragged her two sons and daughters to the ground again.

This time, Chen Chaoyan didn't care about her anymore, but asked: "The person hasn't come back, and there is no news, is there?"

Madam Yang cried: "No, nothing."

"Okay, I know everything. You go back first, and I'll go to your house in the afternoon to see if I can find any clues." After receiving Li Deqing's signal reminding Yang Wei and Sun Huairen's family that they had come, Chen Chaoyan said a few words of comfort to her, and then After seeing off their mother and son, they drank a few sips of tea and invited Yang Wei and Sun Huairen's family members in.

It was Yang Wei's wife and Sun Huairen's wife who came.Like Mrs. Yang, both of them were wearing plain clothes, with haggard faces and red and swollen eye circles.

It is recorded in the case records that Yang Wei was 46 years old and Sun Huairen was 49 years old.Yang Wei's wife and Sun Huairen's wife seem to be about the same age, around 42 or [-].

Yang Wei's wife is plump and restrained.

Sun Huairen's wife is tall, thin and shrewd.

The two entered the room together, and after bowing to Xie Xuan, Li Deqing and Chen Chaoyan, Yang Wei's wife took a step back, and Sun Huairen's wife also did her part.

After Chen Chaoyan looked at her silently, she said straight to the point: "Please come here, two ladies, because I still want to know some details of the case, so as not to be biased."

Mrs. Sun raised her hands and said, "Miss Chen, just ask, as long as I know, I will tell you everything."

After Chen Chaoyan said hello, he asked, "Did Yang Wei and Sun Huairen behave abnormally on the day of the accident, or two days before the accident?"

After thinking carefully for a moment, Mrs. Sun shook her head and said, "No."

Chen Chaoyan looked at Yang Wei's wife, who also shook her head.

"I hope you will think about it carefully," Chen Chaoyan said, "This abnormal behavior can be a casual word, a casual action, or a sudden change in mood."

After thinking about it for a moment, Mrs. Sun still shook her head and said no.

Chen Chaoyan had no choice but to turn his gaze to Yang Wei's wife again.

Yang Wei's wife lowered her head slightly, and after thinking for a long time, she said softly: "The night before the accident, our master said that in a few days, we will be able to buy the house next door that Aunt Wang doesn't live in, and expand it into a new one." A big courtyard."

Mrs. Sun rushed ahead of Chen Chaoyan and asked, "Aunt Wang's house costs [-] yuan, so you didn't ask him where he got the money from?"

Yang Wei's wife still lowered her head, and said with a good temper: "I asked, he told me not to worry about it so much, and just wait for the house to be closed."

Mrs. Sun said: "Why didn't I hear you mention this before?"

Yang Wei's wife said with red eyes: "It's not that you don't know him, how can you take such nonsense seriously. If Miss Chen didn't ask, I wouldn't even remember it."

Seeing this, Mrs. Sun couldn't say anything more, she turned her head and waited quietly for Chen Chaoyan to continue asking.

Chen Chaoyan thought for a moment, then asked Yang Wei's wife: "Does Yang Wei usually have any major source of income? It is the kind of income that usually only makes a small amount of money, but after a while, there will be a large amount of income. "

Madam Sun curled her lips and said disdainfully: "He usually makes a living by selling calligraphy and paintings, where did he get the big income?"

Yang Wei's wife did not speak.

After Chen Chaoyan glanced at her, she looked at Mrs. Sun again, "Where's Sun Huairen?"

"Him?" Mrs. Sun was even more disdainful, "He doesn't even bother to sell calligraphy and paintings, he just eats and drinks all day long. If Yang Shan didn't help from time to time, I don't know where he died."

After Chen Chaoyan raised her eyebrows in surprise, she asked, "Then, what do you think about the fact that they were killed by Yang Shan?"

Although Mrs. Sun scolded fiercely, her eyes were still red when she heard this.Turning her head aside quickly and wiping away her tears, she replied: "I don't have any opinion, I just beg your lord to catch his murderer earlier."

Yang Wei's wife didn't speak, but she obviously meant the same thing.

Chen Chaoyan looked at their expressions, "You all know Yang Shan?"

Mrs. Sun made a recognition.

Chen Chaoyan asked: "What kind of person is he?"

Mrs. Sun said: "Yang Shan only comes back three or five times throughout the year. Every time he comes back, he doesn't stay for more than half a month and then leaves again. I don't believe Sister Yang said that he is away on business. But although he is not at home often , but it is very good to Sister Yang. Not only did Yubaozhai be given to Sister Yang, but also the mother-in-law, maidservant, and handyman were invited to take care of Sister Yang’s family. Every time I come back, I will bring food and drinks to our two families , I implore that when he is not at home, we can help Sister Yang one or two."

"He is very nice." Yang Wei's wife added, "He is kind and generous."

Chen Chaoyan asked a few more words, and after getting a general understanding of Yang Shan, she let them go back.

It is already noon.

After resting for a while, and taking a nap for half an hour after lunch, Chen Chaoyan and Xie Xuan rode in a carriage, led by Li Deqing, and went to Yang Shan's home.

Yang Shan's home is not far from the county government.It was also the section of the road where Mrs. Yang blocked the road and complained when they arrived in Juchang County in the morning.The layout of the home belongs to the pattern of shops in the front and living quarters in the back.

As soon as the carriage arrived at Yubaozhai, Mrs. Yang greeted her.

Although Yang Shan's whereabouts are unknown, Yubaozhai has been open and not closed.

During the process of leading people into the house, Mrs. Yang explained: "My whole family relies on this shop for a living, and every day we close it will lose a day's harvest, so although I am sad, I can only keep it open. .”

Chen Chaoyan didn't comment, but just carefully observed the various jade toys displayed on the top and bottom of the cabinet.

"Most of them are of poor quality," Yuejian followed her closely, and said while watching, "The quality of the jade ring finger, jade pen and jade inkstone over there is slightly better."

Chen Chaoyan read her words for a few times, and asked, "What you said is not very good, how much will it cost?"

Yuejian replied: "In the capital, it's about one or two hundred copper coins."

One or two hundred copper plates is not a small amount.

The total number of jade pieces here is about fifty or sixty.One piece is counted as one hundred Wen, and fifty pieces are also worth five Guan.This kind of wealth, in a small county like Juchang County, is definitely not enough, but it is more than enough.

After Chen Chaoyan glanced over all the jade wares, she followed Mrs. Yang, who was shedding tears from seeing things and thinking about others, to the backyard.

The backyard is not small, in addition to their own family of six, as Mrs. Sun said, they also hired a woman, two maids and a handyman.

According to the floor plan displayed on the light screen, Chen Chaoyan walked roughly around the yard first, and only entered the study after understanding the layout clearly and accurately.

In the study room, the two children are quietly studying calligraphy under the care of the maidservant.Hearing the sound of footsteps, the maidservant and the two children all raised their heads and looked over.

Chen Chaoyan also instinctively looked towards them, and when she saw two children, especially the young girl, her footsteps stopped instantly: Qi Wu!

Xie Xuan walked behind her, saw her stop suddenly, so he stopped too, and followed her gaze.The moment he saw the little girl, he couldn't help but twitched his lips, and said in a low voice, "Interesting."

The unusual behavior of the two naturally attracted the attention of others.But Chen Chaoyan didn't care about their reaction anymore, she turned around and asked Mrs. Yang seriously: "What's the relationship between Yang Shan and Qi Wu?"

Madam Yang blurted out, "It doesn't matter."

Yue Jian stepped forward to pull the little girl, raised her face to face the crowd, and asked forcefully: "If it doesn't matter, why does she look so similar to Qi Wu!"

Li Deqing, who realized it later, looked at the little girl's face, and while stroking the beard on his chin, he said to himself: "I said, why does this child look familiar? It turned out to be the fugitive Qi Wu who was posted on the street a few days ago." resemblance."

"What do you mean by similarity? This is basically carved out of the same mold as Qi Wu." Ling You walked over and stood beside Yue Jian.

Madam Yang turned pale and quickly stepped forward, pulled the little girl from Yue Jian's hand to protect her behind her, and said angrily: "We don't know Qi Wu!"

"When things are coming to an end, I still want to deny it!" Yue Jian looked at Ling You coldly, "Where is Qi Wu's portrait!"

"Wait for a while, I'll get it right away." Lingyou hurried out to find Yu Dahong and asked for Zhang Qiwu's portrait.But after the portrait was brought back, Mrs. Yang didn't deny it, but Li Deqing shook his head first and said, "No, Yang Shan doesn't look like this. Yang Shan's eyebrows are three points thicker than this one, and he has a big beard around his mouth. There is also a large mole with hair on this side of the cheek."

Hearing this, the waiter at the side stepped forward to take the portrait from Lingyou, went to the desk where the two children were practicing calligraphy, and quickly added a few strokes according to his instructions with the pens they practiced calligraphy.Afterwards, she brought the portrait over, "Master Li, take a look, does Yang Shan look like this?"

Li Deqing hammered his hands and said, "That's right, that's it!"

After Chen Chaoyan glanced at the portrait, she looked at Mrs. Yang again.Mrs. Yang tightly guarded the child, with panic, fear, and determination on her face, but she was not guilty.Maybe, she really doesn't know the relationship between Qi Wu and Yang Shan?Chen Chaoyan withdrew her gaze and looked around.
