The wind

As soon as Li Xiao and two entered the yamen, they saw Yu Bocheng who was quite embarrassed. His handsome face was not only swollen, but also wrapped in sackcloth.

"Minzhan, why are you hurt like this?"

Yu Bocheng scratched his back spoon, Fang Lu gave Xiao Zhouheng a very silly smile, unexpectedly pulled the wound, bared his teeth and gasped.Xiao Zhouheng was injured when he was chasing Fu Er, so he said a few words of comfort, but didn't ask further questions.

According to Fu Er's account, on July [-]th, he went out with the crowd to shop, and met Fu Da, who was doing nothing outside the Tangji Buzhuang, and the man begged Fu Er for money to gamble, but Fu Er had no choice. Then went to an alley with him and gave money.As a result, Fu made a big backhand and knocked himself out.I don't know how long it took when I woke up, not only had I changed into Fu Da's clothes, but I was also tied up. After I escaped with a lot of effort, I saw that the city was full of arrests. portrait.

So Fu Er understood that according to his own understanding of Fu Da, he must have owed foreign debts this time, most likely because he owed money from Taobai Bank, the number one bank in the world, so he needed a larger sum to fill in the hole , Then he took the risk to beat himself, pretending to be himself and entering Li's mansion to steal.

If this is the case, then Yuying accidentally bumped into Fu Da who was stealing and became her beloved?Fu Da thought that the crime had been exposed and killed Yuying.But is there such a coincidence?How to explain the broken tongue?What about the paperweight?Fu Daming could choose a more concealed place to dump the corpse, why did he choose a place like Mizhu Garden?

If it weren't for a coincidence, it would be an excellent dead no tell!Xiao Zhouheng sighed inwardly for this thoughtful and thoughtful person.

Li Zhongnan suddenly smiled, turned sideways slightly, and whispered to Xiao Zhouheng: "Why does the tenth brother have a share in this matter?" He was too close, and he could faintly smell the faint sandalwood on his body today, Xiao Zhouheng The roots of the ears are a little red.

Xiao Zhouheng is not surprised by this either. If a gambler has no money, he will definitely take risks for his gambling capital. One of them is to borrow money from the banker. Looking around, the only people who are doing this kind of business are those who are known as wealthy. The Taobai Bank where Li Peizhi is located.

Li Peizhi is the original ten young masters of the Li family, Li Yunhong, who came from the third wife Qin's family, and Peizhi is that person's name.It is said that a few years ago, due to the exclusion of Li Yunyi, Li Peizhi suddenly cut off the flesh to return to her mother, and deboned to return to her father. She left Jinling Li's family and turned to business.

In the desperate situation, in just a few years, a legend has been created. The world knows Li Peizhi, the head of the Taobai Bank, Li Peizhi, but they don't know Li Yunhong, the tenth young master of the Li family.

After listening to Fu Er's argument, Zhang County Magistrate was skeptical about this, and asked about Yuying under the reminder of Li Zhongnan. When Fu Er mentioned Yuying, he looked dazed and confused. Weeping loudly.

Now everyone was stunned, the sadness in Fu Er's eyes was true, and he couldn't deceive others.

The county magistrate Zhang held the Gavel combo case several times before he stopped Fu Er's crying. Seeing blood in Fu Er's eyes, he said bitterly: "Li Yunde killed Yuying, it must be this thief."

Isn't Li Yunde the Seventeenth Young Master who just returned home today?What does he have to do with it?

Li Zhongnan turned sideways again and asked: "Brother Seventeen and Brother Six..."

Xiao Zhouheng was startled, why didn't he even know this, but still replied: "No, Young Master Seventeen is the heir of Mrs. Liu."

The shackles on Fu Er's shoulders slammed, his voice seemed hoarse and exhausted, "That dog thief has been entangled with Yuying for several years. Yuying told me before that if one day dies, that person must die after that person." hand!"

After everyone in the yamen heard Fu Er's words, some people started whispering, County Magistrate Zhang broke out in sweat, and glanced at Li Zhongnan in the hall, only to see that the man was calm and unmoved.

County magistrate Zhang cursed Fu Er repeatedly in his heart. The Li family in Jinling is a four-horse family with a prominent status. How could he, a small county magistrate, dare to offend him? What nonsense, Young Master Seventeen is guilty of pestering a servant for years? You are still protecting your brother at the end of the incident! He burglarized and killed someone. You divided the spoils unevenly, and then you killed Fu Da! "

"You give Fu millions of guts, but he doesn't dare to kill. If I kill someone, can I still throw myself into the net?" Fu Er snorted, "As for Li Yunde, that dog thief, everyone knows that he is in the government office. You did all the nasty things in the past, so you still need me to talk about it?"

County Magistrate Zhang was furious: "Everyone knows that Young Master Seventeen has been studying at the Imperial Academy in the capital all year round. Fu Er, don't speak bloody words just to cover up!"

Fu Erzui cursed, and said again: "You can find a scapegoat, but that dog thief must pay for his life, I would like to ask you, did Yuying cut off her tongue before she died... Do you dare to search for it? In his room..."

Before he finished speaking, Yu Bocheng, who was injured, was in a hurry, knocked Fu Er unconscious, and quickly let the yamen servant escort Fu Er to the cell.

The crowd of onlookers dispersed one after another, Li Zhongnan suddenly said: "Do you still remember the incense ash on the sole of Yuying's shoe? She went to Yizhuang in the mansion before the accident, and the ash on the sole of the shoe is the new ashes from that day."

"The people who manage that place are all third-class maidservants, what does she do there as a first-class maidservant?" Xiao Zhouheng was a little surprised, "Besides, aren't there all Li's ancestral plaques inside? Does she have anything to worship... Could it be that you have become Mrs. You?"

Li Zhongnan nodded: "That's one, and the second is that I feel that she is going to meet someone or find something."

Xiao Zhouheng's doubts were even deeper: Few people set foot in Li's Yizhuang, although it is a good place to hide things, but what can she find?

Li Zhongnan said again: "I checked Yuying's background, and she was indeed innocent. She entered the mansion with her mother, and then went to the sixth brother's place. Except that her family moved out a year ago and did not report it, there seems to be nothing wrong with her." .”

Waiting for everyone to disperse, only the empty room is left, and the county magistrate Zhang here is about to move, when suddenly a person walks in: "Master Zhang."

County magistrate Zhang trembled, thinking that it was someone from Li's family who came to question the crime, he was so frightened that he broke out in sweat, and was about to salute, but found that the person who came was the eldest son of Jiang's family, Jiang Lan.

Jiang Xi seemed to have just arrived from the Jiangning government office, and the county magistrate Zhang looked at the official uniform that was a few ranks higher than his own, and instantly became drenched in sweat.

Jiang Sang smiled: "Master Zhang has worked hard today."

This situation is even worse, the Jiang family has been friends with the Li family for generations, since Jiang Clan married Li Ningsu, the eleventh lady of the Li family four years ago, the relationship between the two families has become closer, especially Jiang Clan and Li Yunyi have always been close friends to each other, The Jiang family has become the untouchable master in Jinling City.County Magistrate Zhang was even more disturbed, and hurriedly bowed and bowed: "Don't dare, Mr. Jiang, I'm an official..."

Jiang Xi stopped County Magistrate Zhang's mouth and asked, "I heard you interrogated someone today?"

"It's just that, it's a servant in Li's house who steals and kills."

"It's so serious?" Jiang Xi frowned slightly, and put his hands behind his back, "Master Zhang must make a serious decision, and don't listen to bad people's nonsense, and hurt innocent people."

"Yes, the next official must strictly abide by the laws and regulations of my court, and will not let a bad person go."

"Very good. I believe that if Mr. Zhang handles the case impartially, he will be able to rise to the top in the future and return to Beijing with Lingzheng as soon as possible."

County Magistrate Zhang didn't have time to think about how Jiang Pai knew that he had been demoted here. Apart from nodding his head repeatedly and bowing his waist deeper, he seemed unable to do anything else.

After finally seeing off the big Buddha Jiang Xie, County Magistrate Zhang heard footsteps again, and felt that he had never seen the almanac before going out today, and it was some grandfather who came, and when he looked up, it turned out to be Yu Yu who had left long ago Po Cheng.

County magistrate Zhang felt depressed. He was old enough to have a grandson, but in the end he still had to tremble all day long, pretending to be someone else's grandson. Seeing Yu Bocheng with gauze wrapped around his face, he felt even more unlucky. Face angrily said: "If you don't catch that Wang San, what are you doing when you come back?"

I don't know if Yu Bocheng didn't understand Zhang County Magistrate's order to expel guests or what, but he said: "Magistrate Zhang, what is that Jiang Xie doing here?"

County Magistrate Zhang was taken aback, and his complexion became even worse: "Yu Bocheng! You are dying! Calling someone by name?"

"Did he tell you to quickly convict Fu Er?" Yu Bocheng took a few steps forward and said in a cold voice, "Can't County Magistrate Zhang see that Fu Er is innocent? I think the Li family just asked Jiang Lan to bring you a message." , so that I can spare that Li Yunde."

"Yu Bocheng, what are you crazy about today? If you keep talking nonsense, I will deduct your monthly payment." County magistrate Zhang felt that Yu Bocheng was abnormal today. What is he going to do; besides, how can he not understand the words in his mouth?The natural voice also weakened.

"Magistrate Zhang can detain it as he wants. It doesn't matter to me, Yu. As the parental official of Jinling, I have always been subordinate to the powerful, but I have never done my duty!" Yu Bocheng raised his hand, Zhang The county magistrate thought he was going to draw the sword, so he hugged his head quickly, but he saw Yu Bocheng holding a Duan inkstone in his hand through the gap in the official robe, and heard Yu Bocheng say: "This is the evidence of Li Yunde's crime."

When County Magistrate Zhang inspected it, he found at a glance that the Fang Duan inkstone was placed in a good location, and it was made from Mount Fuke, surrounded by several huge night pearls.Looking at its side, there are a few characters engraved in it - Li, Yun, De.

County Magistrate Zhang was sweating profusely, remembering a long-standing event: In the spring of the fourth year of Shuofeng, the sage Tan Ye accidentally entered the Imperial Academy and wrote a poem with the theme of spring impromptu. Yan Dayue casually gave the unique inkstone that the Uighurs paid tribute to the fifteen-year-old boy.

Of course, this move was also criticized by the world.

"Where did this come from?"

"The Longevity Storehouse of Anxin Temple*. The monk there took the initiative to hand it over to me today. On the morning of July [-], the day Fu Da died, he took it to mortgage the silver." Yu Bo said, "According to the monk, at that time Fu Da panicked, and bluntly said that he picked it up from Li's house, bluntly said that he got into trouble, his face had burn marks, and bluntly said that this trouble would kill him, and said that he saw a dead person——so He was eager to sell this thing, so he didn't bargain. But at that time, the monk thought he was crazy, and only thought he stole it again, and didn't ask any dead people in detail."

Seeing Zhang County Magistrate's face turning blue, Yu Bocheng sneered again, and continued: "I have dealt with Fu Da before, and he is indeed not a cruel person as Fu Er said. How is it - he entered Li's mansion, but happened to see Li Yunde committing a murder, and the murder weapon was that Fang Yantai. For that good thing, Ambassador Fu made a move to divert the tiger away from the mountain. When I went to check his body, he had a hand that had been smoked Burn marks."

"Absurd! Every word of mouth is unfounded. I just saw the [-]th young master return to the city today, how could he be at the mansion on the [-]th? You have never seen Yuying's body, so how can you make such a conclusion?" County magistrate Zhang Shaking his head, "It seems to me that Fu Da met the maidservant when he was stealing, killed her to silence her, and then came out with the stolen goods to pay off the loan. The case is closed, and Fu Erfa will be sent to the army. Let me ask you One sentence, did those monks see the words on it?"

"Of course I saw it." Yu Bocheng knew what Magistrate Zhang was going to say, "These days, monks have to live, so they will naturally accept those unclear things."

"Associating with thieves! It's an insult to Buddhism!"

Yu Bocheng didn't respond, but just took a deep look at County Magistrate Zhang, his expression full of sarcasm: "County Zhang, since Anxin Temple is willing to hand over this thing, naturally it doesn't want to go into troubled waters, if Zhang County If you want to promote the so-called justice, next time you go to Anxin Temple, you can save some incense money, so why make yourself so angry."

"you!"

"If County Magistrate Zhang doesn't want to do it, someone from me, Yu, will do it. I'm already alone, and I'm not afraid of life and death." Yu Bocheng smiled to himself, and the anger in his heart gushed out, and there was a look in his eyes that County Magistrate Zhang never thought of. The light that has never been seen seems to be able to illuminate all the evil spirits in the world, "Magistrate Zhang, what kind of tricks Li Yunde used, I will find out. If there is no ghost in his heart, what happened to Jiang Xi? The people in the Li family are all scumbags." , I also know that not long ago, those people wanted to take the life of my best friend, Yucai Yucai. Besides, don’t you know the truth of being loyal to the emperor? Any of us can only be loyal to the Holy One, not Li Mansion Jiang Mansion."

After saying that, Yu Bocheng ignored Zhang County Magistrate who looked disheveled, put the square inkstone on the table, and walked away.

County magistrate Zhang watched Yu Bocheng leave. He wanted to call out to the back of the man who was still in the age of no regrets several times, but he opened his mouth several times, but he couldn't make a sound. again and again.The gate of the yamen's mansion was not closed, the night wind was howling, and it was rushing into the hall, making the tables and chairs in the hall seem to be whimpering, and each plan was heavily clasped on Zhang County Magistrate's chest, shaking him for a long time. It took a long time before I heard an old sigh.

Li Zhongnan and Xiao Zhouheng left the yamen, and they felt that since Fu Er had mentioned it, even if they didn't know what happened to Fu Da in Li's house that night, at least it could show that the Seventeenth Young Master Li Yunde had more or less something to do with this matter. They were implicated, so they all decided to go to the Seventeenth Young Master to find out.

Li Zhongnan moved first as usual.

The sunset was red, the car was dusty, looking at Li Zhongnan's back, Xiao Zhouheng's chest was full of cracks, and the shadow between his brows gradually rose.

Li Zhongnan, who are you?
