"On the Chinese New Year's Eve of the sixteenth year, Zhang Wenyuan officially married Feng Niang and built a painting garden for her. After the two got married, they were together almost every day, and Feng Niang became the main room in the name of it. Conan said.

Li Canghai touched his nose and muttered: "In this way, Zhang Wenyuan was not as bastard as he is now!" How is Feng Niang a person? ”

Conan nodded and said, "Judging from my investigation, Zhang Wenyuan was indeed a person who valued love and righteousness sixteen years ago, and his feelings for Feng Niang were not false. As for why he became like this, Brother Li will know later. Speaking of Feng Niang's personality, I asked the old servants who have been in the Zhang family for more than ten years, and they all said that Feng Niang is easy-going, even if she smiles at her subordinates, and everyone in the house respects her. ”

"You said before that Zhang Wenyuan was the concubine who married first, and then married Feng Niang, where are those concubines now?" Li Canghai asked.

Conan glanced at him and said, "Those concubines are none other than Hongmei, Azhu, Tangerine and Lan Yue. The four of them were originally the top names of the major green buildings in Chang'an City, and they all fell into the green buildings because of the middle of the family road, and after Zhang Wenyuan flew Huang Tengda, he took them as concubines and brought them back to Yangzhou. They were originally all beautiful girls, and the piano, chess, calligraphy and painting also had their own merits, and after the arrival of Feng Niang, they often talked about poetry and painting together, and played the piano and songs. And among several people, Feng Niang is the most proficient in these, because she often teaches Hongmei and others, and it can be seen that the relationship between several people is very good. ”

Li Canghai touched his nose and said to himself: "No wonder Lan Yue said that they have been sisters for more than ten years, it turns out that they have known each other more than ten years ago. ”

Conan continued: "But everything changed dramatically sixteen years ago on the sixth day of the ninth month. Among the five wives and concubines, Feng Niang was the first to conceive a child, and on the sixth day of the ninth month, it was Feng Niang's birth period. But...... But something extremely strange happened! ”

"What?" Li Canghai saw Conan's solemn face and asked hurriedly.

"Feng Niang gave birth to not a baby, but a tanuki!" Conan Road.

Li Canghai leaned forward, and when he heard this, he almost fell out of his wheelchair.

"Damn! Tanuki? Li Canghai subconsciously scolded, isn't this a storyline that has been circulating for thousands of years in his previous life?

Seeing Li Canghai's strange face, Conan hurriedly asked, "Brother Li, what's wrong with you?" ”

Li Canghai rolled his eyes and said, "It's okay, Brother Conan, please continue." ”

Conan sighed and said, "This matter is indeed strange and inexplicable, how could a good woman give birth to a tanuki?" When Zhang Wenyuan learned of this, he was shocked. At this time, a Taoist priest came to Zhang's house and said that the Zhang family had a demon and a disaster, and if it was not removed, the Zhang family would definitely be ruined! Zhang Wenyuan looked at the tanuki born by Feng Niang, and suspected that she was the demon that the Taoist priest said, and even took the tanuki to question her. When Feng Niang gave birth, she fainted due to dystocia and hemorrhage, but when she saw that what she gave birth to was a tanuki, she refused to believe it anyway. She insisted that although she fainted from the pain, she still remembered her child's cry and that it would never be a tanuki. ”

"What happens after that?"

After that, Zhang Wenyuan believed the words of the Taoist priest and thought that she was the demon who caused trouble to the Zhang family, so he locked her in this painting garden. That night, Feng Niang first lost her child, and then was said to be a demon, she was heartbroken, and committed suicide by throwing herself into the well. Since then, Zhang Wenyuan seems to have changed as a person, becoming ferocious and tyrannical, and becoming greedy for women. Conan shook his head.

After saying this, the two fell silent at the same time.

After a long time, Li Canghai asked, "How does Brother Conan feel about what happened back then?" ”

Conan let out a long sigh and said, "How could this man give birth to a tanuki?" No one would believe such a ridiculous thing. But this is true, Zhang Wenyuan and the old servants of the Zhang family have seen the tanuki with their own eyes. This matter should have been reported to the government, but Zhang Wenyuan was worried that such a matter would spread and affect the reputation of the Zhang family, so he strictly forbade people in the government to talk about it. Over time, this matter was gradually forgotten, and the garden was abandoned. ”

After Li Canghai groaned, he asked, "What about the stable woman who delivered Feng Niang back then?" She also said that Feng Niang gave birth to a tanuki? ”

Conan frowned and said, "According to the clues I found, she did say that Feng Niang gave birth to a tanuki." However, the day after Feng Niang's death, she also died. ”

Li Canghai suddenly felt a little surprised and asked, "How could she die?" ”

"It is said that I was scared to death by such a strange thing because I gave birth to a raccoon cat." Conan said.

Li Canghai suddenly narrowed his eyes, this case is getting more and more interesting.

"One more thing, did Feng Niang do anything unusual before she died?"

Conan thought for a while and said, "Yes, it is said that Feng Niang painted four paintings before she died, called 'Four Gentlemen'. Painted with the theme of Meilan bamboo chrysanthemum, these four paintings were found on the painting case after the death of Feng Niang, when Lan Yue and others went to worship. Because Feng Niang and them are like sisters, they framed the painting and hung it in Feng Niang's room as a souvenir. ”

Li Canghai's eyes suddenly lit up, and he seemed to have figured out something in an instant, and he said in a low voice: "I see! It seems that the four missing pictures in Feng Niang's room are the paintings found at the scene of the three murders! But what is the connection? ”

Seeing him rubbing his eyebrows, Conan seemed to be in pain, and hurriedly asked, "Brother Li, what did you think of?" ”

Li Canghai frowned and said, "I can't hide it, I did think of something. It's just that I haven't figured out the relationship between them yet. ”

"Brother Li, to be honest, are you really sure to solve these three murders?" Conan asked.

Li Canghai was stunned, he didn't expect Conan to ask this, he thought about it, shook his head and said, "No." ”

Conan nodded: "I have also solved a lot of unsolved cases in Dongying, and to be honest, I have never encountered such a complicated and strange case. I've been investigating the case since the beginning, but so far, I still don't have a clue. Now that a day has passed, if the murderer is not found at sunset tomorrow, Zhang Wenyuan will definitely kill Ueda Takashi, what should Brother Li do then? ”

"Do everything you can to stop it." Li Canghai said without hesitation.

Conan was slightly stunned, and said puzzledly: "Brother Li, Ueda Gaozhi is definitely not a good person, he must have done a lot of bad things, Zhang Wenyuan wants to kill him, why do you want to save him?" ”

Li Canghai smiled and said, "Brother Conan misunderstood, I didn't do this to save him. Ueda Takashi has committed a crime that should be adjudicated by the laws of the Tang Dynasty, not by individuals. Otherwise, what is the use of the yamen? What is the use of this law? I, Li Canghai, have been human beings for two lifetimes, and what I insist on is only two things, one is the righteousness in my heart, and the other is the love in my heart. These two things, no matter what, I will not give up easily. (To be continued.) )
