Chapter 884: Counterfeit Swapping
The noise came, Hua Lang and Wen Feng hurriedly went to look, and then saw a group of people noisily entering the mansion.
Hua Lang smiled lightly, and after paying for the tea, he also entered the mansion with Wen Feng.
Not long after, in the church of the prefect of Chang'an, Hua Lang raised his eyes to look, and saw that Li Jing'an was in his thirties, quite handsome, after he ascended the hall, he patted the shocked wood and asked, "Who is kneeling in the hall?" ”
After Li Jing'an asked, one of them immediately replied: "Lord Hui, the grass people's surname is Du Mingcao, this is my friend Cui Jian, who stayed at my house last night, but today the grass people want to sue him for bad intentions and sneaked into my house just to do the thing of chickens and dogs." ”
After listening to Du Cao's words, Li Jingan asked a little strangely: "Since this Cui Jian is your friend and is staying at your house, why do you say that he is a person with ill intentions?" ”
Du Cao knelt down and said: "Back to the adult, in the next and this Cui Jian are extremely fond of calligraphy and painting, but also because of calligraphy and painting and acquaintance, yesterday he came to my house to play, I took out the collection of calligraphy and painting for him to appreciate, after appreciation, I put those calligraphy and paintings into the study box, this Cui Jian was present at the time, but this morning the grass people went to see those calligraphy and paintings, but found that a few of them became fakes, my lord, only Cui Jian alone knew where I put the calligraphy and paintings, this calligraphy and painting became a fake, who stole it, I'm afraid it's all clear! ”
After Du Cao finished speaking, Cui Jian shouted again and again: "The adults are clear, the villain definitely did not secretly change Du Cao's calligraphy and paintings, it must have been secretly changed by someone else, I told Du Cao many times, but I still saw that this was secretly changed by the grass people." ”
After the two finished speaking, everyone had an understanding of this matter, Li Jingan pondered slightly, looked at Du Cao and asked, "Who usually enters your study?" ”
"Back to the adult, the study is a private place for grass people, and few people can enter, even the lady under has not let her enter a few times."
"How many paintings have you stolen?"
"There are three paintings in total, these three paintings are all painted by famous artists, and they are very valuable!"
After asking Du Cao like this, Li Jingan set his eyes on Cui Jian and asked, "Why did you go to Du Cao's house yesterday?" ”
"Back to the adult's words, the grass people have always been very obsessed with calligraphy and painting, I heard that Brother Du Cao has a lot of precious calligraphy and painting, so I want to see it, the two of us once met, so I went cheekily."
"But why do you want to stay overnight?"
"After reading the calligraphy and painting, Brother Du Cao stayed down to eat, we drank some wine, this drink delayed the time to go home, the grass people live outside the city, and finally Brother Du Cao said that his family is rich, let me live."
"Is your residence far from Du Cao's study?"
"It's not very far, but the grass people will never do anything like chickens and dogs, please be aware of it!"
Li Jingan smiled lightly and continued to ask: "This official will ask you again, have you appreciated the calligraphy and paintings that were replaced?" ”
"The grass people have seen it!"
"Is it true or false when you look at it?"
"This ......"
"Speak quickly!"
"It's true, it's all genuine!"
Li Jingan nodded slightly, and then asked Du Cao: "Have you searched your own house?" ”
"Back to adults, I checked them all, but I didn't find them!"
"What did you hear last night?"
"No, the grass people's residence is still some distance from the study."
"When Cui Jian went to your house, did he bring anything with him?"
Du Cao's face changed slightly, and he looked away: "No!" ”
"Did you see Du Cao leave your house last night?"
"Nope!"
"If he leaves quietly, will anyone in your house find out?"
"There is a guard in the house, if he leaves through the main entrance, he will definitely be discovered, but if he climbs over the wall, it will be another story."
Li Jingan nodded: "Then you can send someone to look at your own wall, whether there are traces of someone climbing over it!" ”
"This grass farmer didn't notice!"
"Come on, go to Du Mansion to check it out!"
After one of the officials received the order, he left in a hurry, Wen Feng and Hua Lang stood in the crowd, and after the official left, Wen Feng asked, "Brother Hua, is this Cui Jian a thief?" ”
Hua Lang touched his chin and thought about it, then smiled again: "It's not! ”
"How can Brother Hua be so sure?" Wen Feng asked a little strangely.
Hua Lang smiled and said: "First of all, if Cui Jian wants to change his paintings, it will be a little suspicious to enter the Du Mansion blatantly, a thief will not be stupid to such a point, and then there are fakes, Cui Jian did not bring calligraphy and paintings on his body when he entered the Du Mansion, so how could those fakes be his?" Three calligraphy and paintings, I am afraid it will be difficult to complete in a hurry, so I deduce that those fake calligraphy and paintings are not owned by Cui Jian, and Du Cao searched the house up and down, but he did not find those calligraphy and paintings, if they were hidden by Cui Jian, this obviously does not make sense, after all, this Cui Jian is a guest! ”
"Could it be that he climbed over the wall and hid outside?"
"No, this Cui Jian is weak, he shouldn't be able to climb over the wall!"
Wen Feng nodded as if he realized, and after a while, the official came back and said that he had not found any traces of climbing over the wall.
After the news of the return of the servant, Li Jingan immediately looked at Du Cao and said: "Now that this Cui Jian has not left your mansion, and he has not brought anything to your mansion, how can you say that those fakes were exchanged by this Cui Jian, I think this thief is clearly you, it is you thief who shouts to catch the thief, and you want to use this to blackmail Cui Jian!" ”
Li Jing'an suddenly said this, but Du Cao was frightened, he hurriedly kowtowed and begged for mercy: "Adults are clear, how can the villain shout to catch the thief, the villain follows Cui Jian without injustice and hatred, why do you want to blackmail him?" ”
Li Jingan snorted coldly: "There are many reasons, as long as Lord Ben investigates a little, he will know immediately, I heard a few days ago that you failed in business and are short of money, aren't you?" ”
When Du Cao heard this, he suddenly sat down in the lobby, and he didn't say anything for a long time, at this time, Li Jingan snorted coldly: "You'd better explain truthfully, otherwise Lord Ben will make you suffer." ”
Just after Li Jingan said these words, Cui Jian suddenly woke up and said, "Brother Du Cao, don't you want my "Spring River Flower Moonlight Night", right?" ”
When Li Jingan heard this, he immediately asked, "What's going on?" ”
"Back to the adult's words, the villain has a famous painting "Spring River Flower Moonlight Night" in his hand, whether it is artistic conception or pen and ink, it is the best grade, the grass people once let Du Cao see it once, he is likely to be thinking about my painting, so he wants to frame me."
Li Jingan bowed slightly, then looked at Du Cao and asked, "But so?" ”
Du Cao sat on the ground, but shook his head in frustration, this is obviously not the case.
