Mr. Kezaku

The master is too good at timing, it's really unlucky, and he died in the son's house, it's not good to hear it. "

"Take me to have a look." Chang Shilang said.

The boy nodded immediately.

Chang Shilang cupped his hands to Zhao Xingduan, and said, "I'm really sorry to have Mr. Zhao encounter such a thing."

Zhao Xingduan shook his head.

This master Guan is Chang Shilang's distant relatives and elders. He heard that he is in business. During this period of time, business has been sluggish. It was just in time for Chang Shilang's birthday, so he came to the capital to give gifts, and wanted to get close.

But unexpectedly, Master Guan committed suicide suddenly.

This might sound a little out of the ordinary.

Zhao Xingduan didn't want to meddle in other people's business, so he took Chu Yuyang to leave, but he happened to be on the same road as Chang Shilang.To get out of the gate, you have to pass through the courtyard of the guest room.

Master Guan is dead, the guest room has already exploded, and many people are surrounded inside, wanting to join in the fun and see what's going on.

The boy walked all the way and said, "Young master, someone has already reported to the official."

"Report to the official?" Chang Shilang was taken aback, and said, "Since it is suicide, why should you report to the official?"

The young man scratched his head and said, "It's Master Guan's maid. She said that Master Guan must not have committed suicide, so she insisted on reporting to the police, and anyone who has something good to do will report to the official."

Chu Yuyang listened and said, "Master Guan's maid said it wasn't suicide? Then how can you be sure that Master Guan committed suicide?"

The boy said, "Master Guan even wrote a suicide note, so he must have committed suicide."

"Suicide note?" Chu Yuyang was a little surprised that there was still a suicide note.

The servant nodded and said, "That's right, Master Guan's maid said that this suicide note is Master Guan's notes, but she insisted on reporting it to the officials. I don't know what the hell she was doing. It's really confusing."

Zhao Xingduan didn't want Chu Yuyang to take care of this matter, because the last time Chu Yuyang was in danger, Zhao Xingduan had lingering fears to some extent.

But just as they were talking, they saw a group of people rushing over. Before they could see what was going on, they heard someone shouting loudly.

"Master Chu, we said we were looking for you, so you are here!"

Hearing this loud voice, it is definitely stubborn.

It was Geng Zhi and Jiang Liuwu who came again, Zhao Xingduan had a headache when he saw it, and asked with a dark face, "Why are you again?"

Geng Zhi scratched his head, as if he didn't quite understand what Zhao Xingduan meant.

Jiang Liuwu said calmly: "Lord Liu and Li Shaoqing went out on errands and haven't come back yet."

The implication is that only Chu Yuyang is free in Dali Temple, so they can only come.

Zhao Xingduan was speechless. He suddenly felt that Dali Temple should have more official positions, otherwise there would be insufficient manpower.

In fact, Dali Temple is already free enough. It has been very free recently, and there is almost nothing to do. Chu Yuyang grows mushrooms quickly every day.

Looking at the situation, Chang Shilang roughly guessed one or two, and was a little embarrassed.

Chu Yuyang looked at Zhao Xingduan's displeasure, and said, "Duan'er, if you're busy..."

"I'll accompany you." Zhao Xingduan interrupted him.

He never dared to leave Chu Yuyang again.

Chu Yuyang blinked and felt that Zhao Xingduan was really worried too much, but he was very happy in his heart. He liked that Zhao Xingduan was with him, so he didn't feel pretentious at the moment, and said, "Chang Shilang, please lead the way, let's go in." Take a look first."

As soon as everyone entered, they saw a maid standing at the door, crying until the sky was dark.

The maid wore nice clothes, and she wore gold hairpins and jade hairpins on her head. It seemed that the jewelry was quite valuable. When she saw the people from Dali Temple coming in, she immediately knelt down and said, "My lord, you have to give it to my master." Revenge, the master will definitely not commit suicide, how could the master commit suicide?"

"Let me look at the body first."

Chu Yuyang walked into the door as he spoke. The room was a bit small, and there was no distinction between the inside and the outside. It could be seen at a glance. The body of Master Guan was lying on the table, and there was a teacup in hand. The teacup was empty, but it was upside down. .

Master Guan's eyes were wide open, he seemed to be in pain before he died, and his expression was a little ferocious. There was a lot of blood on his face, on the table and on his clothes, most of the blood flowed from his mouth.

Chu Yuyang took a look and said, "Take poison?"

He took another look at the teacup on the table and said, "Take this teacup away for a test first."

Jiang Liuwu immediately took the tea cup away carefully, and handed it to Wu Zuo for inspection.

The suicide note that the boy said was held in Master Guan's hands, tightly squeezed, it was already stained red with blood, but the handwriting on it could still be seen clearly.

Chu Yuyang leaned over and glanced at the suicide note.

It was indeed a suicide note, no one had taken it down yet, but even if it was close together, it could be seen clearly, there were not many words on it.

The general idea is that he owed others a lot, knew that he would not live long, and he didn't want to suffer too much, so he had to commit suicide.He also said that after his death, his wives and concubines quickly divided their property and left.

Chu Yuyang blinked strangely, and said, "Is this really Master Guan's notes?"

The weeping maid nodded and said: "It's the master's notes, it's absolutely true, it can't be wrong."

Chu Yuyang asked: "Then why are you so sure that your master didn't commit suicide?"

The maid said: "Master didn't show any intention of committing suicide before. Before coming to the capital, Master was indeed very unhappy and drunk. I was really worried during that time, but afterward, Master suddenly became happy." , saying that as long as you go to the capital, you will be fine. The past few days in the capital, the master has been in a good mood, and he doesn’t look like he is going to commit suicide at all. And I know the master, he will never commit suicide, to put it bluntly Master is timid, and he is also very afraid of pain, how could he commit suicide?"

That maid seemed to know a lot, and she didn't shy away from her identity at all.Although she is just a maid, she is dressed very well. She said that the master intends to take her as a concubine when he returns. The relationship with her is the best in the past few years. He can tell her everything without warning. He committed suicide and left a suicide note.

Chu Yuyang asked the servants in Chang Shilang's house again.The servants said that because the banquet was over, they were very busy, and everyone passed by in a hurry, but they didn't see any suspicious people passing by in the courtyard of the guest room.

Although the maid insisted that it was not suicide, but there was no clue at all, the situation was indeed more like suicide.

Suddenly someone said: "Master Guan seems to have never appeared during the banquet."

"That's right, I didn't see him either. There's nothing beside me, and I said who hasn't come, so it's Master Guan? Did he die at that time?"

Chu Yuyang checked the corpse again, reached out to touch the corpse, and said, "I'm afraid it is true. He has been dead for a while, it should be around the start of the banquet."

When the maid heard this, she started crying again.

Although it was indeed very similar to suicide, Chu Yuyang felt that something was wrong. Master Guan came all the way to the capital to give gifts and wanted to build relationships, but why did he suddenly commit suicide at Chang Shilang's mansion.This is really a bit strange, it doesn't look like they are here to build relationships, but rather they are here to kick the gym.

Chu Yuyang said: "Master Chang, Master Guan has come to the capital, has he talked to you? Borrowing money or something?"

Chang Shilang replied: "No. We had a meal together, but we didn't mention the matter of borrowing money. Although I have no money in my sleeves, but he is my elder, if I ask for money, I will not say it." No borrowing."

Chu Yuyang said again: "Master Chang, can you show me the list of congratulatory gifts?"

Chu Yuyang remembered that when he came in to put gifts, there was a record of the servants, there should be a list.

Chang Shilang nodded, and asked someone to bring the list.

Chang Shilang is a smart person, and even more cautious.On his birthday, it was inevitable that someone would come to seek connections and give gifts, so he recorded all the gifts he gave, and when the time came, he would return a similar one, which would be considered a settlement, lest there would be confusion in the future.

The servant brought over the list, which said that Mr. Guan sent a red satin brocade box, but he didn't open the box, so he didn't know what was inside.

Chang Shilang didn't care much about presents, and he was busy today, so he didn't have time to open them.

The servant brought over the red satin brocade box again and opened it in front of everyone. Inside was a white jade statue of Avalokitesvara.

Chu Yuyang took a look and said, "It seems quite valuable?"

Geng Zhi groaned, nodded and said, "How much is this worth? Didn't the suicide note say that he owed others money, so where did he have so much money? I think the suicide note is probably fake."

"That's not necessarily true." Chu Yuyang said: "It's clearly written in the suicide note that he owed someone else, but he didn't owe anything, maybe it wasn't silver taels? There are only two possibilities for him to give away such a large amount of money."

"What's possible?" Geng Zhi asked curiously.

Chu Yuyang said: "First, you can't buy what he owes others. Second, what he owes others is indeed money, but it's a huge amount of money. This white jade Guanyin statue is just a drop in the bucket."

"Hey..." Geng Zhi took a breath and said, "What is he doing with all the money? I don't think so."

Chu Yuyang ordered Wu to conduct an autopsy and then take the body back to Dali Temple.

Wu Zuo first checked the body roughly, and the time of death was indeed at noon. I am afraid that the master Guan died here before he had time to attend the banquet.

There were no wounds on his body, and there were no traces of fighting. The cause of death was poisoning. Some white medicinal powder was found in the teacup, which had not melted completely. The death may have been caused by drinking the medicinal powder.

After inspecting the crime scene, Chu Yuyang ordered someone to interrogate everyone, whether anyone left the banquet at noon.

Such a search, but the scope is too large, because the banquet was very chaotic at that time, there were a lot of people coming and going, many people said that they left in the middle, most of them went out to celebrate, and a few were drunk and went out. Vomited.Some even drank too much, they didn't even know how they got out of the banquet hall, they were already so drunk that they didn't know what they did.

Chu Yuyang waited for them to finish their cross-examination, then suddenly looked left and right, and said, "Hey, where is Mr. Qi? Has he already left?"

As soon as he spoke, Lu Zhiyi also found that Mr. Qi had disappeared.

Gu Changzhi had already taken Zhuang Mo away before, the two of them didn't drink too much, they were very sober, they left after the banquet, and they also sent a message to Lu Zhiyi, Lu Zhiyi knew about it.

Chu Yuyang turned to Lu Zhiyi and said, "Where's your friend?"

Lu Zhiyi was a little embarrassed when asked, and said: "I... I don't know, maybe I should leave first..."

Lu Zhiyi and Mr. Qi live in Rumengyuan, and they have relied on Gu Changzhi's mansion in the past few days when they came to Beijing.It is reasonable to say that they should come and go together, but at that time Lu Zhiyi was so drunk that he didn't realize it at all, let alone where Mr. Qi went.

Afterwards, Lu Zhiyi was in a daze, and for some reason, he was in the same room with the animal-faced Chang Shilang, and the most frightening thing was that they were still in the same bed...

Lu Zhiyi didn't dare to think about it anymore, his face turned green when he thought about it, his mouth still hurts now, he almost bent over and covered his mouth and retched.

Lu Zhiyi said embarrassingly: "Brother Qi likes to be quiet, I'm afraid he is not used to such excitement."

Chu Yuyang was just asking casually, but Lu Zhiyi's reaction was quite unexpected, which made him a little puzzled.I wondered if I was fine just now, why now, seeing myself is like meeting a scourge.

Lu Zhiyi didn't say anything more, and soon the people from Dali Temple asked him, and it was Geng Zhi who asked, "Young Master Lu, what were you doing these days? Anyone prove it?"

Lu Zhiyi said: "I didn't leave the banquet. Mr. Qi was sitting next to me at the beginning. Then I drank a little too much, so... I don't remember much. Then... I rested in the room , no...no one can testify."

Geng Zhi nodded, ready to record it.

Lu Zhiyi didn't want to mention Chang Shilang even if he killed him.

However, Chang Shilang suddenly appeared behind him at this moment, and said with a smile: "Young Master Lu drank too much, and I will take care of him after that. I can testify to him. I am afraid that Young Master Lu is really drunk. Can not remember."

"I..." Lu Zhiyi stared back, looking at him nervously, for fear that he would say another word.

Chang Shilang looked at him with a smile, with a talkative and gentle look, and asked, "Zhiyi, do you think so?"

When Lu Zhiyi heard him calling his name, he couldn't help shivering.But seeing Chang Shilang's smiling but threatening eyes, he nodded immediately.

Geng Zhi didn't notice the undercurrent between the two of them, so he left after asking.

Chu Yuyang stretched out her head to look at the interaction between Chao Lu Zhiyi and Chang Shilang, rubbed her chin and said, "Is this the first time these two meet today? Why do you feel like they have an affair?"

Zhao Xingduan glanced at him and said, "It's getting late, let's go back first, and we'll talk about the case tomorrow."

Chu Yuyang agreed, because he was a little dizzy.Moreover, there are quite a few people in Chang Shilang's house, I am afraid there will be a long time before the questioning is finished, and it is appropriate to come back tomorrow.

When the two walked out together, Chu Yuyang said, "By the way, where is Princess Hongxia?"

"I went back a long time ago." Zhao Xingduan said.

Chu Yuyang patted her heart and said, "It's okay, it's okay, I thought she was lost."

They went back to the palace all the way, Zhao Xingduan had a lot of things to deal with, so he went to work.

Just as Chu Yuyang was about to enter the palace gate, he found a black figure rushing towards him. He was startled, and was about to call for guards, but after a closer look, it turned out to be Princess Hongxia.

Princess Hongxia frightened Chu Yuyang, she looked beautiful, and said, "Chu Yuyang, why are you back now? Did you play around with Brother Duan?"

Chu Yuyang said: "No, someone died in Chang Shilang's house, and I stayed here to investigate the case."

"What? Dead?" Princess Hongxia stared wide-eyed, and said, "Did that Chang Shilang who was dressed like a beast do it?"

Chu Yuyang: "..."

Chu Yuyang said: "Isn't Chang Shilang a good-looking talent? He is not dressed like a beast. I think Chang Shilang looks pretty good, and the Queen Mother actually has a good eye."

Princess Hongxia quit, and said: "What's the matter, it looks old and cunning at first glance! I married him, what if he bullies me? I didn't even cry, I have to marry someone who can bully me, and what? You don't cry when you're bullied."

Chu Yuyang: "..."

Chu Yuyang said: "Sorry, I forgot that you like being silly."

"Bah, bah, bah." Princess Hongxia said, "I don't want to marry a fox."

Chu Yuyang raised her eyebrows and said, "Are you going to marry a pig?"

Princess Hongxia stared, and almost rushed over to strangle him. She said plausibly, "What's wrong with the pig? The whole body is full of treasures. Don't look down on people. Bah, don't look down on pigs. Meat can be eaten, hair can be made Brushes, bones for soup, and..."

"Stop!" Chu Yuyang immediately stopped her babbling, and said, "Although this is the most detailed and serious self-introduction I have ever seen, I am really not interested in pigs. You just need to know."
