Tang Dynasty detective

The governor of Yangzhou arranged a temporary office for Zhang Yuqing and others, in a side hall in the yamen.

Zhu Er has been following them, eagerly waiting for the four to arrange errands.

Zhang Yuqing asked Zhen Ziyu privately, "Do you think there is something wrong with Zhu Er?"

Zhen Ziyu said: "It stands to reason that a shrewd person like Lu Lin would not be able to see through this kind of trickery." Zhen Ziyu glanced at Zhu Er who was getting close to Di Jinghong, "It's still useful to keep this person , Shut it up and talk about it later.”

Zhang Yuqing called out, "Zhu Er."

Zhu Er responded, and rushed over to listen to the instructions, as if he wanted to mingle with the four of them.

Zhang Yuqing said: "For the time being, you should live in the yamen."

Zhu Er was taken aback, Zhang Yuqing's face was cold, he didn't dare to ask more, but said: "Is there a place to live here?" After speaking, he looked around suspiciously.

Zhang Yuqing said: "Yes, the back hall."

Zhu Er was so frightened that he knelt down and begged for mercy repeatedly. The back hall of the yamen is a prison cell, which means that he should be locked up.

Zhen Ziyu took a step forward and said: "Zhu Er, the yamen didn't want to lock you up, it's just because you are the key witness, to ensure your safety, let you live here temporarily, if you go out now, wouldn't you be afraid of Mrs. Clean you up?"

Zhu Er's face was slumped, and he did not dare to refute, but there was no better way, so he had to go with the cell.

Di Jinghong didn't pay attention to this office, and walked around with his hands behind his back and smacked his lips to find fault, "It's fine to neglect us, it's so shabby to arrange an office, they see that our rank is low, and they don't take us seriously at all. .Look at this table and bench, tsk tsk tsk...the paint is all peeling off, Ziyu, you must be careful, don't fall down when you sit on it."

Yen Ziyu looked through the previous interrogation records, without raising his eyes, he just muttered, "I know that people with low ranks will be poor, so I will use my strength to advance to another rank next year."

Di Jinghong immediately stopped talking, and went to Liu Boen's side to help. Liu Boen raised his eyes and smiled at him. You have been cleaned up again for making you talk so much nonsense?

The four judges looked at the interrogation records of the government, which showed that there were three witnesses, and the caliber was basically the same.A neighbor in the street proved that Lu Lin came out of Hehua Lane early in the morning and did not take a sedan chair.A merchant testified that the horse Lu Lin was riding when he left.A pawn proved that Lu Lin rode eastward to the city gate alone.

However, the guards of Yangzhou City insisted that they did not see Lu Lin leave the city gate.Good people just disappeared out of thin air.

Although Lu Lin's family property is quite rich, he is very diligent. He arrives at the pier at dawn every day, and the day he disappeared was no exception.Since Lu Lin went out early, there were only three witnesses who had seen him.

Di Jinghong leaned over to read the court records, stretched his neck to intervene from time to time, saw the testimony of the witnesses, dismissively said: "Three witnesses, it is too easy to collude." After finishing speaking, he reached out and tapped the table, You see, what I said here is, "I see it really clearly", you are a seller, you are not in a hurry to get the goods in the morning, so why do you look at other people?It's fake, it looks like a fabrication.

A casual smile appeared on the corner of Zhen Ziyu's mouth, and said: "The real confession is useful to us, and the fake confession is also useful." Yu still acquiesced to this person's progress, or how could Zhen Ziyu take pity on him, and he paid attention to every little thing.

True, false witnesses are also useful.If one witness is false, two, or all three are false, it must be instigated by someone. Finding the person behind the scene is not far from finding the truth.

Di Jinghong was the kind of person who was so lazy that even if a deep hole was dug in front of him, he would turn a blind eye to it. Maybe he could jump in and bury himself.If this small flaw was put in the past, he would probably have shouted, "I'm tired, I'm going to rest for a while, you guys study it first."

For some reason, Di Jinghong felt that Yen Ziyu and Yangzhou were very compatible. Since arriving here, under the nourishment of the warm climate, Yen Ziyu's complexion seemed to be more radiant, and his delicate neck was like sweet-scented osmanthus It was as tempting as a cake, so he couldn't help but want to take a bite and taste it.

He kept staring at Yen Ziyu, his eyes were fixed on the inside of his clothes, how could he let go of a little expression, not to mention that Yen Ziyu just smiled, and the smile was smudged at the corner of his mouth, Di Jinghong's bone The inside is crispy and numb.

Yen Ziyu felt someone's burning gaze, and Zhang Yuqing and Liu Boen were beside him, just now he thought he was a little bit better, but he was about to make a fuss.Zhen Ziyu suppressed his smile, rolled his eyes and glanced at Di Jinghong, full of warnings and threats.Of course Di Jinghong understood. He restrained himself a bit, and when he was young, he was excited again, and said in a big way: "Summon these three witnesses, and I will interrogate them myself. I guarantee that I will find a breakthrough within a day."

Zhen Ziyu said: "Don't startle the snake. Such an obvious flaw, the officials of the Yamen may not be able to see it, but if they see it, they have to go all the way to Guanlan to buy the case, so they have to think a little bit."

Zhang Yuqing said: "The person who tied the bell needs to be untied. Since Lu Lin disappeared after coming out of Hehua Lane, let's start the investigation from Hehua Lane. As for the three witnesses, we should investigate in secret and not make too much noise. "

……

Xiao Yanfeng is indeed a "master". She has been in Fengyuechang for a long time. When she talks to people, she always wears hooks in her eyes. The hooks extend from the corners of her eyes and turn into peach blossoms at the ends. It's actually a little pink.He is an extremely beautiful man, more delicate and delicate than a woman, but with a bit of arbitrariness that women don't have.

Now that Di Jinghong took care of everything, Zhang Yuqing advocated giving him a chance to work.In fact, Zhang Yuqing didn't like people like Xiao Yanfeng, he would rather stand aside as a pillar than talk to that person.

Di Jinghong handed over the paperwork from the yamen, saying that it had been approved by the yamen, and they wanted to check the house.

Xiao Yanfeng deliberately touched Di Jinghong's hand when receiving the document. Di Jinghong withdrew his hand abruptly, and subconsciously glanced at Zhen Ziyu from the corner of his eye. Fortunately, Zhen Ziyu was concentrating on examining the teacup in his hand. I breathed a sigh of relief.

After Xiao Yanfeng took the document, he didn't even look at it, but looked at Di Jinghong with a smile in his eyes, and said: "Judges, please check, Xiao Yanfeng will definitely serve you carefully." , but with some Jianghuai accent, Cha could not tell the difference between Cha and Cha, but deliberately emphasized the pronunciation of that word. Studying the teacup, it seems like it has sunk into it.

Di Jinghong waved his hand, a little rude and irritated, "All right, all right, do what you should do, we can figure it out, you can send someone to follow."

Xiao Yanfeng was not angry at all, and still smiled, putting his hand on Di Jinghong's arm, "This judge, look at what you said, how can you send someone casually, Xiao Yanfeng will definitely serve you personally. , Judges, are you coming together, or are you coming alone, together there are advantages, and being alone has advantages, Xiao Yanfeng listens to you." He stretched out his hand to cover his mouth, and lowered his voice in Di Jinghong's ear Said: "Master Lu likes to be together, and every time he calls a few together, he can feel at ease. Most of the time... Oh, you see, I am used to serving people and serving people, and I have nowhere to talk. I should fight, I should fight." beat."

He suppressed his voice, but his voice was not low at all. Instead, it seemed to be showing off his great achievements deliberately. Liu Boen could hardly listen anymore, and his face was as red as if he was about to catch fire.Even though Di Jinghong had a thick skin, his palms began to sweat.

Zhen Ziyu finally put down his teacup, stood up, and said in a cold voice, "Jinghong, start from the door, don't be sloppy at all." After saying that, he got up and walked towards the door.

Di Jinghong: "..." Ziyu became angry.He wished he could give himself a slap in the face, what kind of wind did I have today, I managed to be courteous for a while, and I was so unlucky to meet such a prodigal|waste.

Xiao Yanfeng raised his eyelids, the emotion in his eyes was unclear, and he raised his feet to chase after him in a blink of an eye.

The four judges went back to the gate, looking back at the scene before and after the incident, Zhen Ziyu cast a sideways glance at Di Jinghong and said, "You record."

His tone was cold and hard.

Di Jinghong didn't dare to raise his head, and obediently followed behind Zhen Ziyu, even if he looked, he could only see Xiao Yanfeng's feet, so he felt more at ease.

When Yen Ziyu lowered his face, he had an aura of keeping people away from others. Although he was not as fierce as Zhang Yuqing, it was the coldness that penetrated into his bones.Zhen Ziyu didn't look at Xiao Yanfeng directly, but ordered: "Starting when Lu Lin enters the door, tell me about his route of activities in this house."

Xiao Yanfeng still had a submissive posture, waited obediently on the side, and said: "That day, Lord Lu had some wine outside, earlier, I told you to eat less wine outside... ..."

Zhen Ziyu raised his voice, "Get to the point." Xiao Yan was so frightened that she shuddered.Not only Xiao Yanfeng, but the person who was recording at the side also trembled in his heart and his fingers trembled.

After all, Xiao Yanfeng is someone who has seen big scenes before, and he smiled again in a flash, "That day, I opened the door myself, Master Lu had some wine, hold me down, and I'm going to get it, I said you just finished drinking, don't you?" There was a flash of wind, hey, he was not happy, he insisted on punishing me to kneel, and forced me step by step from here to the house."

Everyone: "..."

Di Jinghong lowered his head, looking at the path made of stones, his knee hurts just thinking about it.

Zhen Ziyu still had no expression on his face, he finally looked at Xiao Yanfeng and said, "He just held you down here? And made you kneel in front of the servants?" These words came from Zhen Ziyu. Zi Yu asked calmly, shocking the entire courtyard.The worst thing was to record the person, wishing to stick his head into the soil, or plug his ears, he couldn't hear what Ziyu said, he couldn't stand it.

Xiao Yanfeng was not at all ashamed|ashamed, and raised her voice: "Hey, as long as the master is happy, it's not just right to serve you no matter what!"

Zhen Ziyu looked at the path and said, "Then he must have drunk a lot."

Xiao Yanfeng said: "That's right, you can't even stand firmly on your legs and you're still trying to be brave, hey, the one who tormented me that day is so ruthless."

Zhen Ziyu said: "He really knows how to play with this little cobblestone road, has he also knocked on it himself?" To be able to ride a horse out of the city after such a toss, he must be capable.

Xiao Yanfeng said: "That's right, such a precious and delicate master, he doesn't care about the wine after eating."

Yen Ziyu let out an "oh" and cooled down again, "Let's go, let's take a look inside."

Xiao Yanfeng was stunned for a moment, he felt that he had made a slip of the tongue, and he couldn't think about it right now, so he climbed onto Di Jinghong's arm and said, "Judge, please walk slowly, Xiao Yanfeng is wearing a As for things, it’s really a pain to go fast.”

Di Jinghong pulled out his arm in a panic, thinking of what "something" he was talking about, he collapsed instantly.

When Zhen Ziyu heard the sound of Di Jinghong pulling his arm, he stopped abruptly, turned his head to look at Xiao Yanfeng, and Xiao Yanfeng also looked at Zhen Ziyu. Zhen Ziyu suddenly raised his hand, and with a "slap", He gave a solid slap, and in an instant, five palm prints were left on that white and tender face.

Xiao Yanfeng covered her face, but did not lose her smile, "Xiao Yanfeng thanked the judge for the reward."

Zhen Ziyu had ice in his eyes, turned around and walked in without saying a word.

Di Jinghong swallowed, and quietly followed closely.
