Kaifeng House Small Dining Table

Judge Shi raised his eyebrows in surprise, "If I remember correctly, you usually have the best relationship with Young Master Bai."

"Okay, it's hard to say now." Zhao Hanyan sighed.

Judge Shi frowned and asked Zhao Hanyan to explain carefully.

"When Su Yuerong came, Bai Yutang introduced her as the daughter of his old friend. Because of his words, not only the identity of Su Yuerong's woman was confirmed, but also let us relax our vigilance against Su Yuerong. He didn't investigate Su Yuerong in time. Yue Rong's identity. Before Bai Yutang, he stayed in Kaifeng Mansion as a policeman just because the food I made was delicious, which is too hasty and casual. He obviously hated dealing with the government before."

Judge Shi nodded straightly, but there was doubt in his eyes that couldn't be concealed, and he looked at Zhao Hanyan more probingly.

"From what you said, it seems to be the case. Do you know where Bai Yutang is at the moment?"

"I don't know. I just found out that Su Yuerong was missing, so I went looking for him, but I didn't see anyone." Zhao Hanyan glanced at Judge Shi anxiously, and asked him what to do.

"I'll send someone to look for him immediately. This matter is no small matter, and I must report to Mr. Bao."

Zhao Hanyan agreed, and then followed Judge Shi to meet Bao Zheng.

After Bao Zheng listened to the narration of the two, he asked Zhao Hanyan: "Do you really doubt Bai Weiwei?"

"Yes." Zhao Hanyan affirmed.

"Okay, then I'll leave this matter to Ma Han and order him to lead his men to hunt down Bai Yutang with all their strength." Bao Zheng spoke in a very sonorous tone, and told the two of them that the case is now at a critical stage, and they must handle it safely without any complications. , Another accident happened.

"Then this subordinate and Brother Zhao will thoroughly check all the personnel in the mansion again to see if there are any omissions. No matter who is in the cell, they must have the permission of an adult before they can enter." Judge Shi agreed.

After Zhao Hanyan and Judge Shi came out from Bao Zheng's place together, Judge Shi sighed in relief.

"The case is finally coming to an end. After we get through this period, we can take a good rest and relax." Judge Shi sighed to Zhao Hanyan with a smile.

"That's right." Zhao Hanyan agreed.

"By the way, what are you going to do now?" Judge Shi asked.

"I just got the news that the blind Taoist is hiding. I'll go and see with Zhao Hu." Zhao Hanyan then said goodbye to Judge Shi in a hurry, not allowing Judge Shi to ask more questions.

Judge Shi looked at Zhao Hanyan's leaving back, shook his head helplessly and smiled, then turned around to get the roster, and re-investigated the personnel in the mansion.

Judge Shi first checked from the stables at the back of the mansion, down to the small officials in charge of horses and vehicles, etc., then to the officials of the sixth and seventh ranks in charge of various places, and then there were Zhan Zhao, Zhao Dynasty and other high-quality guards and school captains. As well as the entourage around the Baxian King, Song Tingkong, Yan Shu and others who assisted in the investigation and handling of the case in Kaifeng Mansion, they were all within the scope of his investigation.

Not long after Zhao Hanyan and Ma Han left Kaifeng Mansion, Ma Han informed Zhao Hanyan that someone was following him.

Then the two of them walked to Daji Lane, the southernmost part of Imperial Street. This alley is remote and remote. Unlike its name, this alley is considered by the common people to be the most unlucky place in Tokyo.Because in the past 15 years since the first dynasty, there have been ten murders in the alley.So much so that everyone thinks that the feng shui here is not good, and the air is heavy, and the residents in the alley, if they can move and change places before a little bit, they all change.The house that was originally vacant could not be sold because of the poor ground.

So this place is a desolate place in the thriving market, and it does make people feel that this is a good place to hide.

As soon as Zhao Hanyan and Ma Han entered a dilapidated house in the alley, two men in gray linen followed. They stayed outside the house for a while, hesitating whether to go in.

The two men then nodded to each other, took out a dagger from their waists, went around to the back wall and flipped inside.Behind the wall and inside the house, more than 20 government officials had ambushed and surrounded the two with knives.

From the number of people and the length of their weapons, the two gray-clothed men were obviously unable to fight. Knowing that they were outnumbered, the two persisted in fighting, and finally they were forced to a corner. Seeing that they were about to be captured, the two men looked at each other, and at the same time raised their knives and inserted them into their stomachs , died a few moments later.

"It's a dead man." After Ma Han followed Zhao Hanyan out of the house, he judged helplessly, "It's a pity that he is dead, so I can't ask anything."

"If you are a dead soldier, you can't ask if you are not dead."

Zhao Hanyan asked people to search the bodies of the two to see if there was any gain.

After the Yacha searched, he shook his head at Zhao Hanyan and Ma Han, saying that they were clean and there was nothing.

"Well, it's expected. Since they are dead soldiers, they are ready to die at any time, and the two of them came to follow us specially, so it is even more impossible for them to have anything revealing their identities." Ma Han sighed, He asked his subordinates to collect the corpses with a bamboo mat, and told them to cover their heads so that no one could see their faces.

The yamen servants agreed, went to get the bamboo mat, and carried the two corpses onto the bamboo mat, ready to roll them up.

Afraid of missing something, Zhao Hanyan had been carefully observing the two corpses, when he noticed their shoes.In addition to the mud on the sole, green things can be discerned on the edge, which is moss.

Zhao Hanyan noticed the uppers of their shoes, they were brand new.Look at the two people wearing this set of white and gray linen clothes, which are also brand new.It can be seen that the two of them changed the clothes on purpose today.

That being the case, the mud and moss on the two people's shoes must have been newly glued on today.

Zhao Hanyan carefully looked at the moss on the shoes of the two of them, it was very green.It is autumn now, the grass and trees are withered and yellow, and the moss on the wall has already dried up and turned yellow, without any moisture.

Therefore, the green moss on the rubbing of the two people's writings can be seen as growing in places with water.In addition, there are more mud sticking to the soles of the two people's shoes than usual for people like them who walk normally.Zhao Hanyan looked at the soles of his shoes and made a comparison. It was true that the soles of the two of them had more soil.

Zhao Hanyan spread the white handkerchief on the ground, and scraped the mud on the soles of the two people's shoes with a dagger.The top layer of soil is brownish-yellow, while the soil close to the soles is relatively wet. Of course, it is not particularly wet. It is slightly damp. It should have been glued on early in the morning, and then it dries up after walking for a while.Viscous, black, is humus.After digging out all the soil, you can see a little trace of green moss in the soil.

Zhao Hanyan also found a small broken leaf on the sole of another deceased person's shoe, not as big as half the size of a little thumbnail. The leaf is narrow and very short, so short that it is difficult to distinguish what leaf it is , but there are dry marks on the other side, and the other side is neatly cropped.What kind of leaves should be, but they withered and pointed in autumn, so they were trimmed from the tip of the leaf with scissors.Few of the leaves have been clipped, and it is likely to be a valuable flower.

Zhao Hanyan talked about her guess, and asked Ma Han what plant he would think of when he saw the tip of this leaf.

"With such narrow leaves, they are still flowers and plants. If they are worth more, they look like orchids?" Ma Han's head suddenly brightened.

"Yes, it looks like an orchid." After hearing what Ma Han said, Zhao Hanyan looked more and more like the broken leaves.

Ma Han scratched his head anxiously, "It's just what the orchid can do, what can you tell from this!"

Zhao Hanyan asked the Yacha to pack the soil and bring it back, clapped his hands and got up, "It's a big clue, better than nothing."

"It's true to say that, something is better than nothing." Ma Han waved his hand and sent the officials to take the body away. Taking advantage of the two of them left, he asked Zhao Hanyan if he really suspected Bai Yutang.

"Isn't he suspicious?" Zhao Hanyan asked back.

"Bai Shaoxia can't do that. He is so lonely. How could he be ordered to do such a thing? If you want to say something about the prince of Dali, I believe it." Ma Han patted his chest, "But I feel sick when I mention him. Miss Xiao, Miss Song Princess. Are those Dali royals blind or something, and chose him as the crown prince?"

"The situation of the royal family in Dali is very complicated. There are already two emperors who had to become monks in the end. I think it is not easy for the crown prince to do so, so he came to Song Dynasty for help." Zhao Hanyan explained.

"I'm not capable of being a man by myself, so I just rely on marrying a woman to solve the problem. What an idiot! I don't care what others think of him, anyway, Bai Shaoxia doesn't like him, and neither do I." Ma Han glanced at Zhao Hanyan, "Not only So, I still don't think you doubt Bai Shaoxia, the so-called suspicion is just a show for outsiders, right?"

"Among the four captains, you are the smartest." Zhao Hanyan did not answer Ma Han directly, but hinted at Ma Han with affirmative words.

Ma Han immediately understood, sighed "Sure enough", and asked Zhao Hanyan where Bai Yutang was now.

"Escort witnesses, very important witnesses." Zhao Hanyan said, telling Ma Han not to worry, maybe there will be a result tomorrow.

Early in the morning of the second day, before the city gate was opened, someone shouted outside.After looking at the visitor in surprise, the general defending the city looked at the token and hurriedly let him go.

Bai Yutang rode his horse and galloped to the main gate of Kaifeng Mansion, regardless of the rules, rushed in directly from the main gate, and went straight to the Kaifeng Mansion Court where the case was being heard.

All the lords who are judging Taishi Pang, Bao Zheng, Baxian Wang, Song Tingkong and Yan Shu all showed surprise when they saw Bai Yutang's situation.

Bai Yutang was covered in blood. The clean and elegant white clothes that he usually wore on weekdays had been dyed red, and some places turned black because the blood was too deep.

Bao Zheng stood up and asked in surprise, "This is? What happened?"

"Attacked halfway, all six families in Deping County were killed." Bai Yutang narrowed his eyes slightly, full of hatred and murderous intent, he spit out every word, although his voice was not loud, but he spoke with extreme force.
