After repeated interrogations, within three days, Wen Yuan got a definite confession: the robber murder case was really just a façade, but in fact, because Zheng Yuncong, the king of Shu, and Mao Qianying, the assassin of Suizhou, colluded with Mao Qianying, the assassin of Suizhou, to kill him on the street because he prevented Cui Fuchu from inadvertently knowing the clue and wanted to write a secret letter to denounce him.

As for what kind of rebellion it was, what did Cui Fujiao know...... The letter was not finished, I don't know; Jia Mazi said that he was just taking money to do dirty work and didn't know the details; The outer room of the King of Shu is really the outer room, there are witnesses and various tokens, but about the lofty goal of the King of Shu, he also doesn't know!

Although the King of Chu gave Wen Yuan great convenience within the scope of his authority and responsibility, allowing him to secretly investigate and secretly arrest some small people, after arresting a string of people, he still had no clue for the time being.

For a while, they could only coerce and induce, and without any evidence, they really could not extort confessions by torture, and the case was temporarily deadlocked.

The only one who was really involved in the case was the "upline" confessed by Jia Mazi, and Lou Hai, the secretary of the Shu Wangfu who paid a deposit for the killing, participated in the military. But this person is a copper pea, gritted his teeth and survived two tortures, and refused to explain anything honestly, only saying that he had a personal vendetta with Cui Fu, so he bought the murderer.

There is only no evidence of the thief's confession, so you can't just say that the king of Shu is rebellious, right? If it is directly replaced by someone else, only the suspicion of rebellion may be able to raid the house to check, but this person is Uncle Wang!

Wen Yuan was at a loss, and although he tried his best to control his emotions when he returned home every day, he could not guarantee that he would not reveal the clues, which immediately attracted the curiosity of detective Mi Yanbing.

When the husband and wife were talking at night, she listened to the scales and half-claws and asked with great interest: "Didn't you find the letter related to the rebellion?" Is it feasible to quietly send someone to the Shu Wangfu to find weapons and leather armor? ”

"Nothing was found at Lou Hai's residence. The Shu Wangfu originally wanted to send someone to find it secretly, but the guards were so tightly guarded that they couldn't get in. It's not okay to break through, the king of Shu is still in Shu now, and he can't catch the thief and capture the king first when he goes to the palace of the capital, and he will scare the snake. Wen Yuan shook his head and sighed silently.

"What about the connection? How are these people connected to each other? As Yan Bing spoke, she suddenly remembered the middle-aged scribe who almost trapped herself, and raised her head from the couch and said, "Didn't you say before that Jia Chunzhen was involved in everything, is there him this time?" ”

"Slow down! Don't hurt your baby and beware of catching a cold. Wen Yuan was startled, and hurriedly pressed Yan Bing down, forcing her to shrink the warm quilt quickly.

Then he had the spirit to slowly ponder the person his wife pointed out with a flash of inspiration, Jia Chunzhen. Wen Yuan had never thought of him before, and when he was asked by Yan Bing, he suddenly had a thrill - Lou Hai was the same year as Shi Jia Chunzhen, the head of the Dingyue County Palace, as a jinshi!

Jia Chunzhen also had correspondence with Shi Shan Tianheng, the head of the Chu Prince's Mansion who had a slight case.

If you look further back at the cases that have happened, Zhao Jinzhu, a Shu brocade and Shu embroidery merchant who was divided by his husband, is the father of Mao Qianying's concubine in Suizhou.

Yan Bing's grandfather Shu Hongyang married his eldest daughter to Mao Qianyingshu's eldest son Mao Kunming before he died; Shu Hongyang's concubine fell into the case of delirium, and the location of the case was in the jurisdiction of King Chu, and it seemed to have something to do with Shan Tianheng......

That is, all of them can be strung together!

Thinking of this, Wen Yuan really couldn't wait to get up and go to Dali Temple to continue questioning the case.

Unfortunately, because the robbers have not been completely broken, the curfew hours have been extended, and even if you go out, you can't move around at will. Moreover, in order not to frighten his wife and son, he could only lie still, as if he was asleep.

The next day, the 15th day of October, which is the day of worshiping ancestors and lonely souls from Taoism, the yamen does not have a holiday.

Wen Yuan went to Dali Temple as usual to continue to ask about the case, and even, he went earlier than usual because he was worried about things.

Yan Bing didn't care, she only arranged for the family to prepare paper money, water and wine for the sacrifice, and fasted and bathed, and waited for her husband to come home in the evening and go to the front yard to worship the ancestors and the god of the stove with General Duan.

Who would have thought that as soon as she got up from a nap in the afternoon, someone came with bad news - at noon today, Maitreya disciples in Beijing killed people on the street, attacked Taoist temples, set fires and slashed indiscriminately!

"I heard that at the time of the crime, Rong Langjun happened to be praying for the lady in the Taoist temple!" The little girl with a broken mouth stood in front of Yan Bing and said in a colorful voice, ignoring Nuan Xiang who was standing behind the master mother and shook her head vigorously.

As expected, Yan Bing is really bad.

Before she finished speaking, she felt a sharp pain in her abdomen, her eyes were black for a while, and her legs were hot, as if a warm current was gushing out......
