I am Li Shen and Li Shimin, the free kings of the Tang Dynasty

The shopkeeper was trembling. When he came, the yamen servant told him that a prince from the Tang Dynasty wanted to see him.

Although he is a clerk, he also knows that the prince is the son of the current emperor. The greatest official he has ever seen is the governor.

He only saw this because of the murder case. Otherwise, the biggest official he had ever seen was a government official.

The guy was trembling and was brought up by Zheng Ji himself.

"This is His Highness Prince Ji." Zheng Ji reminded.

"Little man... I pay my respects to His Highness Prince Ji." The man bowed deeply and almost knelt down.

"You don't have to be afraid. I'm just here to find out what's going on. If you tell the truth, I'll give you a reward when the time comes."

Li Shen first comforted him with a few words, and then continued to ask.

"What's your name?"

"The villain...the villain's surname is Niu, and they are all called the villain Niu Er."

Li Shen nodded.

"Well, Niu Er, tell me what happened that day."

"Yes, Your Majesty. I got up early that day and opened the door..." Niu Er began to tell what happened that day.

It was basically the same as what was recorded in the file. After Niu Er finished speaking, Li Shen asked:

"Niu Er, when you entered Zhang Qi's room that day, you said there were no signs of rummaging in it. I'm here to ask you, are there any money or valuable items missing?"

The first explanation that Li Shen thought of was robbery and murder. People died for money and birds died for food. The probability of this was very high.

Niu Er thought for a while and shook his head.

"Reporting to the prince, the government officials searched it that day and there was no missing money. Moreover, the shopkeeper's wife also checked the finances after she came back and there was no loss."

"Did Zhang Qi have any bad relations with anyone?" Since it wasn't a robbery, it should be a vendetta.

Niu Er thought for a while and shook his head.

"My shopkeeper is a kind-hearted person. Although he is a businessman, he never deceives others. He is also generous and generous and has never had any grudges with others."

"Are all the guests from that day still there?" Li Shen continued to ask. He was sure that the murderer was among those people.

"Go back to the prince, you are still here, but you are leaving this afternoon. The government just informed you that you can leave."

Li Shen frowned after hearing this, and immediately ordered:

"Prefect Zheng, asked the government officials to seal off the restaurant, and the guests who stayed that day were not allowed to leave. Waiting for my king's investigation."

"I'll take care of it now," Zheng Ji promised.

"Niu Er, please go back. If anyone asks you for information after you go back, write down the person who asked you about it and don't tell others, okay?"

"Keep this in mind, villain." Niu Er nodded quickly.

"Prefect Zheng, I will reward Niu Er with a lot of money. I don't have any change with me. Then send him back."

Li Shen waved his hand and signaled Niu Er to go down.

Zheng Ji's face was full of bitterness. He didn't get a penny at all. After that, I gave him a penny, but he couldn't get anyone to give him a penny to Niu Er.

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for the reward. Thank you, Your Majesty, for the reward." Niu Er was taken out with gratitude.

"Your Highness Prince Ji, do you have any clues?" Zheng Ji looked at Li Shen and asked thoughtfully.

Li Shen raised his head and looked at Zheng Ji,

"Prince Zheng, generally murderers have their own motives. Yang Yi and Zhang Qi are strangers to each other, so there is no such thing as a vendetta.

Moreover, the clerk just said that Zhang Qi has no grudges with anyone, so he has no enemies.

Zhang Qi's restaurant didn't have a lot of money or valuables, and the file didn't mention that Yang Yi and the others had a lot of money.

In other words, it's not for robbing money.

Governor Zheng, it was not a robbery or a vendetta. Why do you think Yang Yi wanted to kill Zhang Qi? "

"This..." Zheng Ji was speechless for a moment after hearing this. What Li Shen said did make sense. There must be a reason for killing people.

"Prince Zheng, that's why I said that Yang Yi and the others are not murderers. You should be glad that I am here, otherwise, when you send the file to the Ministry of Justice,

When His Majesty checks the death penalty files, do you think His Majesty will hold you accountable? The files are unclear. "

Li Shen raised his eyebrows at Zheng Ji,

Zheng Ji was speechless, but he was still unable to refute. So he changed the topic and said:

"Then who does the prince think the murderer is? If it's not revenge or wealth, why did he kill?"

"Hehehe...hahahaha..." Li Shen laughed loudly. After laughing for a while, Li Shen said:

"I don't know either."

"..." Whether it is Zheng Ji or Wang Xuance, Xue Rengui and others around Li Shen, they all have a black line.

This Prince Ji is so capable. I don’t know why you are laughing. Doesn’t he feel embarrassed himself?

"Okay, I have finished reading the file. I will come over tomorrow and I will solve the case as soon as possible.

Prove that Yang Yi and others are innocent. "

After Li Shen stood up, Zheng Ji personally sent Li Shen out of the governor's mansion.

"Do you think King Ji has any clues?"

Zheng Ji asked the counselors around him,

"The villain feels like it. Even if there are no clues, there should be some ideas. In fact, the villain also thinks that what King Ji said makes sense. Yang Yi and others may not be the murderers."

Zheng Ji nodded without saying anything and went straight back to the inner house.

After Li Shen came back from the governor's office, he had been analyzing the case. After thinking for a long time, Li Shen had no clue.

"Your Majesty, this case is not a vendetta or a robbery. Could it be that someone hired someone to kill someone, or was it a crime committed by a colleague?" Wang Xuance asked.

"Impossible. There must be a purpose for hiring a murderer. It will always revolve around vendetta and robbery, or..." Li Shen was stunned when he said this.

"Yes, Xuance, do you think it was a love killing?"

"Love killing?"

"Yes, it's love murder. Come here, send someone to keep an eye on Zhang Qi's wife to see who he is flirting with." Thinking of this, Li Shen immediately ordered his men to keep an eye on Zhang Qi's wife.

"Your Majesty, what you mean is that Zhang Qi's wife conspired with the adulterer to seek wealth and death?" Although this kind of thing happened in ancient times, it was rare.

"Exactly, that makes sense why no money was lost, because then all the money and people will belong to the adulterer." Li Shen nodded.

"By the way, starting tomorrow, you will call that guy here for three consecutive days to ask about the case, and then ask him to go back and remember who has asked him about things.

Whoever inquires more will be the most suspect. "Li Shen told Wang Xuance.

Li Shen stayed in the restaurant for three days, and Wang Xuance also followed Li Shen's method and called the waiter to ask questions every day.

On the fourth day, the guards came to report that Zhang Qi's wife had a close relationship with a businessman named Chen Sheng.

And just this time, Wang Xuance also received news from his clerk. For four days, a resident named Chen Sheng would ask every time, 'What did the government ask you? ’

After careful inquiry, I found out that Chen Shengnai was Zhang Qi's supplier and a fellow villager of Zhang Qi. He had always had business dealings with him and was familiar with both his wife and his wife, and they both had a good relationship.

According to the waiter, Zhang Qi also came to deliver the goods that day, and also stayed at their restaurant for one night.

Li Shen made a quick decision, "Come here and bring this Chen Sheng to justice. We will also go to the government office."
