Chapter 740: Sowing Discord
Chapter 740 Sow Discord.
Regarding what Mrs. Wen said, Ye Xing was still more inclined to believe it.
In terms of strength, Mrs. Wen can't beat Wen Wan, and from common sense, women rarely use knives to kill people, they either use poison, or as Mrs. Wen said, borrow knives to kill.
And the knife that Mrs. Wen borrowed was Wende.
"Presumably, Mrs. Wen refuses to let Wen Wan move out, and she also wants to find an opportunity to transfer the relationship between their father and son, right?" Ye Xing looked at Mrs. Wen and said.
Mrs. Wen was slightly startled, and then nodded: "That's right, I really don't want Wen Wan to move out to live, otherwise how can I make the relationship between their father and son discordant!" ”
After Mrs. Wen finished speaking, Ye Xing looked at Wen De and asked, "I'm a little strange about this, you just said that your wife told you that Wen Wan teased her when you weren't there, why did you still hear your wife's words and didn't let Wen Wan go out to live, if Wen Wan went out to live, wouldn't you not have to worry about Mrs. Wen being molested?" ”
Wen De was speechless for a while, and finally spoke: "I didn't let Wen Wan go out to live, I also wanted to investigate whether he really molested his stepmother as this slut said, if that's the case, I kicked him out of the house and won't even give him a penny." ”
Hearing Wen De say this, Ye Xing suddenly remembered Bai Juyi's younger brother Bai Xingjian's legendary novel "The Biography of Li Wa" in the legendary novel "The Legend of Li Wa", the father of Xingyang had spent all the money on his body because of his nostalgia for the fireworks venue, so his father drove his son out of the house in a fit of anger, and said that he no longer recognized him as a son, but later heard that his son was admitted to the official, so he shamelessly shouted that I and Er father and son are the same.
Today's Wende is very much like the father of Xingyang Gongzi.
After a long time, Ye Xing turned his mind back to the case.
"On the day Wen Wan was killed, Master Wen had a quarrel with Wen Wan in his room!" Ye Xing looked at Wende and asked.
Wende was taken aback, and then hurriedly denied: "No, how could I quarrel with my own son, I just asked him to go to the store with me to take care of business." ”
After Wen De finished speaking, Ye Xing shook his head and said: "I'm afraid that's not the case, since Mrs. Wen said that Wen Wan was molesting her, how can you, as Mrs. Wen's husband, tolerate this kind of thing, you went to your son's room to ask Wen Wan about it, and then they quarreled without saying a word, and then you killed Wen Wan in a fit of rage." ”
Now, Ye Xing really suspected that Wen De was the murderer who killed Wen Wan, but Wen De still quibbled: "How is this possible, I did have an argument with Wen Wan, but I didn't kill him, he was fine when I left his room, not to mention that after I left, Wen Wan was still alive when the small bowl went up to serve the washing water!" ”
Ye Xing shook his head: "We have already confirmed from Xiaowan that when he brought the washing water, Wen Wan was already dead, and the reason why she said that was just because she didn't want people to point the finger at you." ”
After Ye Xing finished speaking, Wen De suddenly said with some excitement: "How is this possible, when I left Wen Wan's room, he was really still alive, and the tiger poison didn't eat children, how could I kill my own son because of a woman's provocation, this is really ridiculous!" ”
Looking at Wende's appearance, he didn't want to kill his son, but it was really superficial from the appearance alone, and no one would write on his face that he was the murderer.
Therefore, Ye Xing and the others still think that Wende is the murderer, because he has the most motive and time to kill.
And according to Xiaowan and the people in the house, Wen Wan did see Wen De before he died and had a quarrel, which means that Wen De was the last person to see Wen Wan.
In view of this, Ye Xing sent someone to put Wende in prison.
Now, the death of Zhou Facai and Wen Wan has been imprisoned by three suspects, Xiao Sanzi, Chang Kong and Wen De.
Among them, the third son has admitted that he killed Zhou Facai, because he can't bear to see Zhou Facai's abuse of Mrs. Zhou, and Changkong and Wende are the suspects in Wen Wan's killing, among which Changkong appeared in Wen's mansion when Wen Wan was killed, and he and Wen Wan also held a grudge against each other because of Wen Fang's affairs, and Wende had a dispute with his son because of his wife's provocation.
These are based on facts.
It's just that Changkong and Wen De both didn't admit that they killed Wen Wan, and although Xiao Sanzi admitted to killing Zhou Facai, he refused to admit that he conspired with Mrs. Zhou, but Zhou Facai's seal was indeed stolen, and Xiao Sanzi must have conspired with Zhou.
The two cases have one thing in common, and that is that the deceased all had daggers of the same pattern stuck in their chests, which is reminiscent of serial killings.
But Ye Xing couldn't find common ground from Zhou Facai and Wen Wan, which was the most embarrassing place.
So at this time, Ye Xing had no choice but to treat these two cases as separate cases, and he only hoped that this case would not be used by Ji Gang's gang.
But Ye Xing was wrong, after Ye Xing escorted Wende back to the prison, a eunuch came to deliver the decree, saying that the emperor wanted to see them, there was no way, Ye Xing and the others had to hurry into the palace.
Above the palace hall, there are still many civil and military ministers, and Ji Gang is the first.
After Ye Xing came to the main hall, Ji Gang immediately said: "I heard that there was another murder case in Jinling, and it was exactly the same as the first one, there was a serial murder case in the capital, I don't know how King Daming investigated?" ”
The continuous murder was indeed shocking enough, but Ye Xing just smiled coldly: "Is the commander still quite well-informed, but how do you know that this is a serial murder, could it be that you sent someone to do it?" ”
Ji Gang was very angry, but he didn't dare to come out, but Ji Gang's ability to become the commander of the Jinyi Guard was by no means a vain name, so he immediately retorted to Ye Xing: "Lord Ye is really good at spewing blood, I am the commander of the Jinyi Guard, will I send someone to do murder, the reason why I know that this is murder is because the two deceased have the same murder weapon on their bodies, and it can be seen from the murder weapon that the murderer is obviously the same person, what is this not a serial murder?" ”
After Ji Gang finished speaking, the ministers in the entire hall also echoed it, and at this time, Zhu Gaochi, the prison state, looked at Ye Xing and asked, "Does Ye Aiqing think this serial killing?" ”
Ye Xing looked at Zhu Gaochi and said: "Back to the emperor, Wechen is still not sure, the case needs to be evidence-based, and it can't be considered a serial murder case because the style of the murder weapon is the same, it may also be an imitation of murder, so before the case is investigated, Wechen does not dare to make a sure decision, this is also an attitude towards handling the case, and some people will not understand." ”
