I am the best in the world with the crime solving system

Chen Chaoyan glanced at him in the eyes of Xie Xuan, then accepted it and returned to the topic: "Qiu Jiu has a close relationship with the merchant named He, and the two sons of the merchant named He married the daughters of Wang Da and Song Yanzhong respectively. That is to say, the three Caos joining the army in the county guard's mansion have long been colluding?"

Before Xie Xuan could answer, she denied it instantly: "No. If they were already working together, the merchant named He wouldn't have given money to Song Yanzhong's daughter and asked her to take it back to her natal family."

Talk to here.

She looked at Xie Xuan instantly.

Xie Xuan also looked at her.

Chen Chaoyan's eyes brightened and said: "Looks like the lord is going to investigate Shen Jimin's private relationships again."

Xie Xuan glanced at Ling Quan: "Go."

Lingquan went out immediately.

Chen Chaoyan's lips were stained with a smile: "I wonder if the prince is interested in secretly interrogating Song Yanzhong while Wang Da is away?"

Xie Xuan joked: "Didn't Ms. Chen always object to my use of lynching?"

Chen Chaoyan raised her eyebrows slightly: "Secret interrogation does not mean lynching, what does your lord think?"

"Miss Chen is right." Xie Xuan got up and said, "Then Meng Baishan and Mr. Zhou will be tried again tonight, and Song Yanzhong will accompany you."

Chen Chaoyan smiled, "My lord is wise."

There are more and more clues.

The murderer is also becoming more and more obvious.

at night.

Chen Chaoyan also wanted to follow Xie Xuan to the North Prison to see Song Yanzhong, but Xie Xuan refused without thinking.The reason he gave was that the North Prison was dirty and not suitable for her.Chen Chaoyan knew that this was the reason, so she didn't make any more demands.

Only the next morning, I went to Suiyuantang.

Xie Xuan hasn't gotten up yet.

Fortunately, he put Song Yanzhong's confession on the desk.

Chen Chaoyan sat down in front of the desk, took two sips of the warm tea handed by the waiter, and then read the statement.

The servant said: "There are precedents of Meng Baishan and Mr. Zhou being tortured by water droplets. Song Yanzhong explained everything before the young master had even opened his mouth."

The content of Song Yanzhong's confession can be summed up in three things:

Five years ago, Wang Da used Zhou Zhongcai's death method to kill someone. It was his concubine who had given birth to a pair of children for Wang Da, Wang Da's youngest son, Wang Fan, and his youngest daughter, Wang Qian.However, shortly after the concubine's death, Wang Qian also passed away due to illness.This happened in the second year after he arrived at the county guard's mansion, and his son also entered the county school to study. After he deliberately approached Wang Fan, he heard what Wang Fan said.

[-]. The ten pennies that the merchant surnamed He asked his daughter to bring back every three months were used by Wang Da to gag him.The white jade four-eared Yi furnace was sent to him by Wang Da, in order to silence him. As for how the white jade four-eared Yi furnace came about and why the box was in Ma Huai's house, he did not know.

[-]. Those Zuo, Shi, and Yamen servants who were replaced nearly four or five years ago were all Wang Da and Shen Jimin's ideas.Qiu Jiu is Wang Da's man, and Wang Da will give Shen Jimin two pennies every month as his reward for Qiu Jiu's public examination.

As for what Wang Da was doing behind the scenes, and what kind of business Qiu Jiu took, he didn't even know.

Chen Chaoyan read it again.

After that, she asked Yue Jian to take out the topographic map of Luyang County and spread it on the table, and then followed Wang Da's house to find the house of a merchant named He.

Just after finding it, Feng Shoudao also came over.

Feng Shoudao and Zhao Wuwei stayed up all night, and finally read all the case files of the past 15 years.It's just that the result was not satisfactory. They searched thousands of case files, but they didn't find any similar cases.

Chen Chaoyan was not surprised by this.

Since Wang Da asked the merchant surnamed He to give Song Yanzhong ten pennies every three months, obviously, few people knew about his murder of his concubine.

Even so, Chen Chaoyan still asked step by step: "Master Feng, have you heard about the accidental death of one of Wang Da's concubines?"

"Accidental death? Didn't he slip and fall on the rockery?" Feng Shoudao asked subconsciously.

"Slipped and fell on the rockery?" Chen Chaoyan asked.

Feng Shoudao nodded, "I heard from Qian Wen two months ago that Wang Da had a son who was very talented and had a great chance to pass the exam, but after his birth mother accidentally slipped and fell to his death while enjoying the scenery on the rockery, his heart was broken. Feeling disheartened, even Qiu Wei didn't participate."

Chen Chaoyan took out Song Yanzhong's confession thoughtfully, and then looked at Wang Da's relationship diagram.On the relationship diagram, Wang Da only has one wife and two concubines.And it can be seen from the light screen that this wife and two concubines are still alive.In other words, the dead concubine and daughter, Wang Da, were not recorded on the fingerprint paper.

Withdrawing her thoughts, seeing Feng Shoudao hesitated to speak, Chen Chaoyan took the initiative to say: "Master Feng wants to ask something, but it's okay to say."

Feng Shoudao took a quick look at the inner room, and after confirming that Xie Xuan hadn't woken up, he quickly said, "Is there something wrong with the death of this little concubine?"

Chen Chaoyan shook her head, "I don't know."

Feng Shoudao glanced at the paper in her hand, apparently not believing her words.But seeing that Yue Jian and Shi Shu were all there, it was not easy to force questions, so he changed the topic and said: "Miss Chen's speculation yesterday is indeed somewhat reasonable, but even though the white linen paper is from Judicial Cao, Ma Huai cannot escape suspicion. And now we haven't found any similar cases in the past, could it be..."

"Could it be that I guessed wrong?" Chen Chaoyan helped him complete the words.

Feng Shoudao: "Of course, I don't mean to question Ms. Chen's verdict, it's just..."

Chen Chaoyan smiled and said, "Master Feng wants to ask, besides the white hemp paper and similar cases, do I have any other clues?"

Feng Shoudao said awkwardly: "It's okay if Miss Chen is inconvenient to say, I'm just asking casually."

"Has Master Feng had breakfast?" Chen Chaoyan suddenly changed the subject.

Feng Shoudao was old and refined, and immediately heard the string song and said elegantly: "Miss Chen isn't there yet, is she?"

Chen Chaoyan said 'hmm' and invited with a smile: "I wonder if Mr. Feng would like to go to Wang Da's house after breakfast with me?"

Feng Shoudao straightened his waist immediately, and said with a smile: "Miss Chen invites you, so I dare not refuse."

Chen Chaoyan bent her lips, "Master Feng is serious."

Shi Shu went out, followed Ban Xia and Zi Ling to bring in the food.

Chen Chaoyan looked into the back room, saw that Xie Xuan hadn't woken up yet, so he quietly had breakfast with Feng Shoudao.

After dinner.

After a short rest, Feng Shoudao called Zhao Wuwei who was waiting at the door in and told him to prepare the carriage.Afterwards, after a few polite words with Chen Chaoyan, he planned to get up and go back to change clothes.But as soon as he stood up, his eyes turned black, his body swayed uncontrollably, and then sat back down.

Facing Chen Chaoyan's concerned gaze, Feng Shoudao laughed wryly at himself and said, "Old man, it's useless. I've only stayed up all night, and I can't hold it anymore."

Chen Chaoyan said solemnly: "Recently, Master Feng got up early and stayed late in order to investigate the past cases. He stayed up all night yesterday and has not rested yet. The body is the root of everything. Master Wang Da's family should not go, and go back and rest quickly." .”

Feng Shoudao waved his hands, and stood up with the handrails, and said: "The members of Wang Da's family are very temperamental. Miss Chen may be embarrassed by them if she goes alone. If I accompany them, they can still look after some of the county guards." For the sake of saving face, don’t worry about it.”

Chen Chaoyan saw him swaying every step and step, and was really worried about letting him go with him.While deliberating and consoling, seeing Zhao Wuwei walking quickly, he couldn't help but say: "Then let Mr. Zhao follow me."

Taoist Feng Shou was about to fall down again, but fortunately Zhao Wuwei quickly came over to support him.Wiping the sweat from his forehead, he had no choice but to say: "That's the only way."

Chen Chaoyan nodded, and asked Zhao Wuwei to help Feng Shoudao back first.

After the two left, Chen Chaoyan calmed down a little, then turned to ask the servant, "What was the result of going to Chonglou to ask Ma Huai yesterday?"

The servant replied: "Ma Huai said that he doesn't need white linen paper at all, and he has never asked Wang Da for white linen paper."

After Chen Chaoyan said she knew about it, she took Yuejian with her and went out.

The servant followed behind the two of them, exhorting in a low voice as they walked: "Miss Chen, be careful in everything."

Chen Chaoyan should be fine.

He sat in the carriage outside the gate of the house, while waiting for Zhao Wuwei, Nanling came out from nowhere, and after chasing the groom away, he sat on it by himself.

moment.

Zhao Wuwei has arrived.

After meeting each other, he rode his horse to protect the side of the carriage.

A group of people just left the Sheriff's Mansion.

On the way to Wang Da's house, you will pass by Maji Pharmacy and Jishanfang.

Maji Pharmacy has already opened its doors, but under the impact of Ma Huai's murder of Zhou Zhongcai and Shi Zhi, the store is empty.

Jishanfang is still as lively as usual.Chen Chaoyan raised the curtain of the carriage and looked over, seeing the carriages, ox carts, donkey carts or mules occupying half the street at the entrance of Dufang, unconsciously, the graceful figure of Mrs. Zhao appeared in her mind.

Mrs. Zhao was not there, Chen Chaoyan took a few glances and then looked away.

After another four streets, the carriage gradually approached the gate where two sweet-scented osmanthus trees were planted.Finally, stop at the gate.

Wang Da's home has arrived.

But the door of Wang Da's house was closed tightly, and the yamen servant who followed Zhao Wuwei went up and called the door for a long time, but no one answered.

"It's not a coincidence for you to come," the neighbor aunt came out and said when she heard the sound, "Mrs. Wang led the whole family to Guanyin Temple, and it was just within two cups of tea."

"Thank you aunt." After thanking auntie, Zhao Wuwei looked at Chen Chaoyan and silently asked her about her next plan.

Chen Chaoyan glanced at the closed door, and slightly hooked the corner of her mouth, "Since Mrs. Wang is not here, let's go back."

Zhao Wuwei didn't think much about it.

The carriage turned and soon left Wang Da's house.

Although Wang Da's house is within ten miles of Zhou Zhongcai's house, it is far more prosperous than Qiwan Lane where Zhou Zhongcai's house is located.After Chen Chaoyan signaled Yuejian to hang up the car curtain, she glanced at the surrounding shops and confirmed that the merchant surnamed He was not far away, then she whispered to Yuejian, "Let Nanling stop near here, let's go down for a walk .”

After Yuejian Ying was finished, she clasped her hand and tapped the car wall twice.

instantly.

The carriage stopped on the side of the road.

Chen Chaoyan supported Yue Jian's hand and got off the carriage, looked around, and entered a rouge and gouache shop.

Nan Ling sat on the carriage without moving. After exchanging glances with Yue Jian, he leaned against the carriage with his hands folded, and fell asleep with his eyes closed.

The rouge gouache shop is still seven or eight shops away from the shop of the merchant surnamed He.Under the enthusiastic introduction of the shopkeeper, Chen Chaoyan carefully selected several boxes of rouge, and then turned and went into the dim sum shop next to it.The shopkeeper of the dim sum shop seemed to know her, and enthusiastically handed over several different dim sums to invite her to taste, and then asked the errand man to wrap some new dim sums for her.

"There's nothing to be courteous about, but what does the shopkeeper want to teach Miss Chen?" Yue Jian asked after confirming that there was no problem with the dim sum, while handing the dim sum to Chen Chaoyan.

"No, no." The shopkeeper rubbed his hands and said with a smile like Maitreya Buddha, "Just a while ago, I planned to take my wife to Xinghua Temple for a walk. No, halfway through the departure, I heard Xinghua The temple was ransacked."

Yue Jian smiled: "The shopkeeper should really thank Ms. Chen."

The shopkeeper nodded repeatedly, "From now on, Miss Chen's dim sum will be fully covered by Xiangsu Zhai."

Chen Chaoyan didn't expect to come out for a walk, and come out with such a big favor. After complimenting each other for a long time, she left the dim sum shop.Originally, according to her plan, she should enter the next shop, one after another, slowly approaching the shop of the merchant surnamed He.But just after leaving the dim sum shop, she met Mrs. Zhao who came from the previous rouge and gouache shop.
