I solved crimes in the Song Dynasty and strengthened the country [Seventh Five-Year]

80 Don't Care About Broken Hearts

When Jiang Lingang heard what Bai Yutang said, he was not completely suspicious.

But when he thought about it carefully, there were many people involved in the case of Pei's mansion, and Yunshu's master Qiyou was the main one involved.So no matter whether Yun Shu's appearance in Pei's residence was a coincidence or on purpose, it basically makes sense.

The only thing he worried about was that Yun Shu had a clever and exquisite heart, would he have seen through the relationship between his master and the late prefect Chen, and knew why Qiyou left Dali Temple?

·

After the elder monks in Qinglong Temple knew what Jiang Lin and the others had done, they praised their kindness all the way.Although Ming Qi still had a stinky expression on his face, he was no longer as choking as before when he spoke, and he only slightly complained: "Hey, there is still a Ruyi whose whereabouts are unknown in the mountains, you just like this." Let’s go, what if he shows up again someday to harm people?”

It was only then that Jiang Lin remembered that the monks didn't know that Ruyi was killed by Yun Shu, and hesitated for a while, not knowing what to say.

Others wanted to help change the topic, but Yun Shu said frankly: "He was murderous when he imprisoned me. I have already killed him in order to protect myself."

The monks all showed surprised expressions, Ming Qi said in disbelief: "Do you know martial arts? What about the Ruyi corpse?"

Jiang Lin interrupted: "I have not forgotten to disclose the details of the murder case to the public, and I hope all masters will be more considerate."

He hasn't figured out how to deal with Yun Shu's case yet.

A voice in his heart told him that Yun Shu was really innocent for killing himself to protect himself, and he might be acquitted in modern society, but another voice kept telling him to look at the law from the perspective of the times.

In an ancient society with insufficient education, if the price paid for killing is not high enough, it may cause more people to try to get rid of the crime after killing.

Jiang Lin didn't weigh the pros and cons for a while, but he felt that since Yun Shu saved the lives of everyone in the mountain, maybe he could help her win a chance.

After they went down the mountain, they immediately visited the village at the foot of the mountain.

The small village at the foot of Qinglong Mountain was called Qingniu Village, and it was almost the same as what Jiang Lin expected. When the water flowed enough to submerge some of the low houses in Qinglong Temple, the remaining water would not cause much harm to the village below the mountain.

I saw new seedlings just growing on the cultivated fields in the village, and the canals were filled with water. No houses were washed away, and there were no casualties.

Seeing that they were all officials, the village chief quickly explained the situation in the village to them: "It's hot these days, and the river across our village is almost dry. Fortunately, Qinglong Mountain came to Wangquan and rescued them. A lot of crops have lived."

Bai Yutang scanned the surrounding environment, and then poked his head into the village. A strong man beside him felt that he was behaving strangely, so he stretched out his hand to stop him.

Bai Yutang glared at him and said, "Stop me for what, I just find it strange that there are few people in your village."

"This official doesn't know something. There was little rain a while ago, and the crops were not working well. Many young people went to work in the city." The village chief patted the strong man with a smile, "A Niu , Hurry up and apologize to others."

The strong man named A Niu reacted for a moment when he heard the words, and then bowed to Bai Yutang naively.

Bai Yutang frowned, then looked at Jiang Lin and said, "Don't worry? Let's go back to the city earlier to rest. Fifth Lord, I'm about to die of this muddy body."

·

"The Liao Kingdom sent envoys to visit our Kaifeng mansion?"

After Bai Yutang repeated the news he had just heard in the tavern, he frowned and said to Zhan Zhao: "We just won a few battles with Xia Jun, and they are about to send envoys, I don't believe they are here Ask us to make peace."

After finally getting out of danger, the three of them wanted to get together and relax.

Jiang Lin clinked glasses of wine with the two of them, nodded and said, "I agree."

He could vaguely recall it, not to mention that in this period of history, every time the Song Dynasty negotiated and confronted the Liao Kingdom, they did not get any benefits.

Only considering the world in the book, when Jiang Lin was investigating the disappearance of military pay in Langzhong, he found many letters containing Khitan characters in Xu Zhizhou's mansion.

At that time, he handed over all the letters to the official right away, but he didn't know how the other party followed up on this matter, and how he would respond in this negotiation.

Even if Di Qing had won several great victories in the north recently, Jiang Lin would never take Liao Kingdom lightly just because of this sweetness.He simply took this matter to heart, and planned to go back and find out some news.

Bai Yutang chatted with Jiang Lin, "Hey, so, what are you going to do with that little girl from the Yu family?"

Jiang Lindao: "The current consideration is to report her crimes to the Dali Temple. She and Yu Shi have also been detained by the Dali Temple, but I have specially applied for a retrial of Miss Yunshu's case at a later date, so that she can do something aside. things, try to make meritorious deeds."

Bai Yutang was surprised and said, "Is it possible to atone for the crime of murder?"

Jiang Lin shook his head and said, "How is it possible? The gong I said is the gong of finding treasures. Do you remember? Neither the fake Yu clan nor Ye Fengqiu think that there is only one knife in Qinglong Mountain. And you think, There are such powerful organs in the mountains, are they just used to protect a reasonably powerful knife?"

Zhan Zhao recalled it for a while, and said, "Indeed, compared with the giant cannon and chariot we found before, that knife is indeed a bit mediocre."

Jiang Lin nodded and said, "So I need to discuss it carefully with Yunshu to see if there are other mysteries in Qinglong Mountain."

Zhan Zhao said: "That's fine. If we can find it, it will not only solve the predicament that Miss Yunshu is facing, but also help Da Song to be stronger."

"It's just..." Jiang Lin touched his forehead and said with some doubts, "I always feel that I have forgotten one very important thing, can you remember what it is?"

The three of you looked at me and I looked at you, and then shook their heads in confusion.

After drinking a little wine in the evening, Jiang Lin walked home comfortably with the warm summer breeze blowing.

It has been more than two months since he came to this world. He has experienced many thrilling things, but he was able to save himself from danger and accumulate a lot of wealth.

The piece of land he bought near the Guozi Academy was almost ready, and many wealthy businessmen and nobles wanted to reserve a courtyard with him so that their children could be educated in top schools.

Jiang Lin himself didn't like to live in a house that was too big, and he didn't feel safe, so he just expanded and renovated Jiang's small yard, and customized the furniture according to his real-life standards, making them the most comfortable.

Jiang Lin couldn't wait to run back to his small courtyard, wanting to have a good sleep, but when he opened the door, he saw his cheap father Jiang Zhigao sitting in front of the stone bench in the courtyard.

Jiang Lin straightened his back reflexively, for fear that his lazy appearance would offend his father.

But Jiang Zhigao didn't seem to see him coming back, holding something in both hands, watching silently.

Jiang Lin approached, only to find that Jiang Zhigao was full of alcohol and was quite drunk.And what he was holding in his hand was nothing but the tablet of the original owner's deceased mother.

Jiang Lin's heart went numb.

The tablet has been enshrined on the high platform in the house since he wore it. Out of respect for the old man and empathy with his own similar experience, Jiang Lin basically wipes the tablet every day to comfort the spirit of the original owner's deceased mother. .

Jiang Lin felt that the tablet was very magical, and every time he touched it, he would feel an uncontrollable soreness in his heart.Seeing Jiang Zhigao holding the memorial tablet at this time, Jiang Lin was slightly moved.

He was about to help Jiang Zhigao back to his room to rest, but he heard a very soft sigh from the other party: "...Xiao Lin."

The nickname that no one had called for more than ten years was suddenly called by such a familiar voice, and Jiang Lin was a little dazed for a while.

Before he could answer in the future, Jiang Zhigao continued on his own: "He is doing well now, it should be because you are protecting him in heaven..."

Only then did Jiang Lin realize that Jiang Zhigao was talking to his dead wife.

"He's fine now, fine, he doesn't need me anymore..." Jiang Zhigao followed the silver chain around his neck, and took out a silver lock that only children would wear from his bosom.

He murmured, "You're right, in the end, I'm the one who can't stand him..."

Jiang Lin opened his eyes slightly.

Neither Jiang Zhigao could be regarded as an excellent father to the original owner nor to him.Jiang Lin can feel his awkward love, but he has more flaws, such as ignorance of people, arbitrariness, taking care of everything about his children, unwillingness to admit the mistakes he made...

But now he actually heard the other party's apology?

Perhaps it was because he resembled his father so much, Jiang Lin thought in a daze, if his own father apologized to him, would he look like this too?

Looking at Jiang Zhigao's unconscious appearance, maybe he would never tell "Jiang Lin" why he resolutely rescinded his engagement with the Yu clan back then, nor would he explain their old age old gap.

But upon hearing this apology, a strange sense of relief welled up in Jiang Lin's heart.

From the perspective of a bystander, Jiang Lin seemed to understand a little bit. When he was a child, he imagined his father as an indomitable hero, so he accepted that he was busy with work and had no time to accompany himself and his mother.But his expectations were set high, and he let himself forget that his father was just an ordinary person.

There are tens of thousands of parents who are better than him, and there are more and more people who are completely inferior to him.

It doesn't have to be glorified, and it doesn't have to be demeaning.

Jiang Zhigao was naturally stupid, so stupid that even his son's body had changed, but he couldn't recognize him.

But this may also be a kind of tolerance or blindness of his being a father.

Jiang Lin couldn't tell what was in his heart.

He stood silently behind Jiang Zhigao, and waited until the other party's breathing was steady and fell into a deep sleep, then he squatted down and carried his father on his shoulders.

It turned out to be lighter than he imagined.

·

Early the next morning, someone knocked on the door of Jiang's courtyard.

Jiang Zhigao was still hungover, Jiang Lin, who originally wanted to take advantage of rest to catch a good night's sleep, got up impatiently, but when he opened the door, he was greeted by the servant of Xie's mansion.

Jiang Lin's sleepy bugs were scared away.

At this moment, he suddenly remembered that the thing that he had been thinking about but never thought of was to confirm Xie Ling's situation!

Jiang Lin quickly grabbed the boy's shoulder and said, "Where's your young master, can your young master stay in the mansion these days?"

The boy was also puzzled: "My young master said a few days ago that he would go to Qinglong Temple with you, and we have never seen him since. I heard that you all returned from that mountain safely, but my young master was alone. I sent the kid over to ask you..."

Jiang Lin's heart shook.

"Xie Ling" actually reported to his family about going up the mountain?When did this Ye Fengqiu change his face into Xie Ling?

Before he had time to inquire more carefully, he saw Tan Cuo in a uniform of an officer rushing towards him.

Jiang Lin suddenly had a bad feeling in his heart.

He quickly asked, "Did something happen in Dali Temple?"

Unexpectedly, the news brought by Qin Cuo was even worse. He clasped his fists and said, "To Jiang Shaoqing, a seriously decomposed male corpse was found in the small river beside Qingniu Village outside the city. According to his calculations, his age should be around the same age. Please Go check it out quickly."
