Chapter Eighty-Nine: Talking about the Case at Night
In the study room of the official mansion, there are only two people, Chu Xian and Cui Huanzhi, from Cui Huanzhi's mouth, Chu Xian also learned what Cui Huanzhi was investigating from yesterday to now.
It turned out to be an old case 20 years ago, when Wang Xianming was appointed as the commander of Chunyang County, Hezhou. It was also a murder case that year, Wang Xianming found out that it was committed by a student surnamed Guo in the county, and it was full of human and material evidence, so he sentenced the student surnamed Guo to be beheaded.
"Chu Xian, do you know who the student who was sentenced to beheading is?" At this time, Cui Huanzhi opened his mouth and asked, Chu Xian heard this, how could he not guess, and said at the moment: "The student surnamed Guo, could it be the son of Steward Guo?"
"Not bad!" Cui Huanzhi nodded: "So Steward Guo has a grudge against Wang Yushi, the revenge of killing his son, he can endure by Wang Yushi's side for twenty years, it is really not easy, and he can secretly cultivate to the realm of out-of-body and learn the art of fire resistance, this person is also amazing." ”
Chu Xian nodded.
Steward Guo's technique is not to say how exquisite it is, but it is also ferocious, if it wasn't for Cui Huanzhi moving the bell to help them block the attack of the fire group, Chu Xian and the others would have been killed or injured.
"Now that things are almost clear, the direction of our previous investigation seems to be wrong, the case of the murder of Yushi really has nothing to do with the Changshi Mansion, no wonder Zhao An and Zhao Renze are not afraid at all, and they can't find any evidence from them. Let's just say that Guo Steward, his real name is Guo Su, he was sentenced to beheading by Wang Xianming because of his son, so he held a grudge for 20 years, and in the past 20 years, he has changed his face and lurked beside Wang Xianming, academic law, waiting for an opportunity to retaliate, and finally succeeded, in addition, this Guo Su chased and killed Wang Ruoyu, it should also be because Wang Yushi killed his son, and he also wanted Wang Yushi to break off. The Criminal Investigation Division is interrogating those who were arrested overnight, including the subordinates of the Imperial History Mansion before, a total of seventeen people, all of whom have been imprisoned, if there is no accident, I am afraid that the credit this time will go to the Criminal Division. Cui Huanzhi said helplessly.
But this is also a matter of no choice, he can think of starting to investigate through Wang Xianming's past cases, how could Kong Qian, an experienced old magistrate, miss this, and Kong Qian's speed is even faster than him.
In the end, Cui Huanzhi didn't save Chu Xian and the others, and he couldn't catch up with Steward Guo and others before Kong Qian and the others.
In terms of the speed of solving cases, Kong Qian, an old magistrate, does have two brushes.
Chu Xian shook his head: "The student thinks that this case is not so simple, if I am Guo Su, since I have endured it for 20 years, how can I finally make it known all over the city, he can do it more secretively, and even let people know, and then retreat." ”
Cui Huanzhi nodded: "There are indeed many unsolved mysteries, but they can all be tried if they want to, and it is impossible for the old magistrate of the Criminal Department to think of this, he should have already been confident." ”
"In addition, even if the Changshi Mansion has nothing to do with the murder of Yushi, but Zhao An's crimes, Fang Shun also confessed, and it is not enough for this person to kill ten times. Chu Xian actually has a lot of doubts.
It's like when he and Qi Chengxiang were in Ding's house, they were involved in the ghost and god fantasy realm, and they almost couldn't get out, who was the person who arranged the ghost and god fantasy world?
And no matter who it is, it must have something to do with Zhao An, because Zhao An once took out the Immortal Five Tibetan Pills, and the fifteen members of the Ding family were actually refined into the Immortal Five Tibetan Pills.
This is one of them.
Second, who robbed Fang Shun?
At that time, there were a lot of deaths in the Punishment Division, including a god catcher, who knew that the other party used the technique of flying swords, and there must have been monks in the out-of-body realm. After Fang Shun, there was no more news, and Chu Xian thought that he would either be sent away or already killed.
As for this matter, Chu Xian actually felt that nine times out of ten it was done by the Changshi Mansion, because there was no doubt that Fang Shun's disappearance would be the most beneficial to Zhao An.
But speculation is far from enough, there must be evidence, just from this point of view, Zhao Renze of the Changshi Mansion has to be more sophisticated and leaky when doing things, and Guo Su in the case of the murder of the imperial history is much more powerful, which also illustrates a problem from the side, that is, the case of the murder of the imperial history, it is really possible that it was not done by the Changshi Mansion, if it was done by the Changshi Mansion, it would not be so 'amateurish'.
From this point of view, Zhao An is nothing, his father, that is, Shi Zhao Renze, the governor of Sui, is a really powerful figure, just like a master duel, the other party has not shown martial arts, his opponent is already dead, that is to say, he doesn't know how he made a move, and there is no trace.
Zhao An's matter, it seems that the other party can only be imprisoned for half a year, fined some silver two things, in this matter, whether it is the inspection department or the criminal department, it is a failure, especially the criminal department, they are dead, this matter will have a greater impact on them, no wonder the criminal department will exert force on the case of the murder of the imperial history, they interrogated Guo Su overnight, and estimated that they also wanted to see if the Changshi Mansion was involved, if so, the old magistrate would definitely not let go of Zhao Renze.
Chu Xian saw the tiredness in Cui Huanzhi's eyes, and knew that from yesterday to now, Cui Huanzhi was afraid that he had not rested, and before that, the Yuan Shen Imperial Object moved the iron bell of 10,000 catties, which was extremely energy-consuming, so Chu Xian asked Cui Huanzhi to rest earlier and pushed the door out by himself.
Outside the door, Li Yanji carried a pot of wine, looked at Chu Xian, and pointed to the stone table and stone bench in the courtyard, Chu Xian smiled and sat down directly, and Qi Chengxiang also came.
The three of them sat opposite each other and drank, admiring the moon and blowing the wind, but there was also a special comfort, Li Yanji was extremely rare to joke Chu Xian: "I heard, Brother Chu, have you gone to eat flower wine?"
No need to ask, it must have been Qi Chengxiang who told Li Yanji, Chu Xian smiled: "Don't listen to what Qi Dao Chang said, I'm going to investigate the case." ”
Li Yanji laughed, but did not continue to ask.
Next, talking about the process of going out to investigate the case in the past two days, Chu Xian knew that Li Yanji and Master Cui had also spent a lot of effort.
"Master Cui said, to investigate the case, you can't just take one road, because once the route is wrong, in the end it will be a loss, so, he left you to check the long history of the house, and I and the adults to check the past of Wang Yushi, the murder case, there must be a motive, the first is to seek revenge, the second is to seek profit, if it is to seek revenge, it must be the case that Wang Yushi has handled is most likely to offend people, so this is the Guo Su, speaking of which, this Guo Su is also a character, after his son was executed, he changed his face, and the idea became the steward of Wang Yushi, these years he has relied on some loose cultivation exercises, cultivated out of the body realm, quite remarkable。 Do you know why he waited a full twenty years for revenge? This matter, Lord Cui speculated, it is likely that he also wants Wang Yushi to taste the pain of losing his son, his son died when he was twenty years old, and back then, it happened to be the day when Wang Yushi's daughter Wang Ruoyu was born, so Guo Su has waited for these twenty years, the only thing that is puzzling is why he killed Wang Yushi first, this, Lord Cui is also very incomprehensible, can only guess, maybe Wang Yushi had a premonition of danger, and secretly sent his daughter Wang Ruoyu away, then Guo Su's time for revenge was up but no one could be found, so he killed Wang Yushi directly in anger。 ”
After Li Yanji finished speaking, he drank all the wine in the cup, Chu Xian nodded again and again, and secretly said that Lord Cui is really not a loss to Lord Cui, and this speculation is also quite meticulous, and even makes people feel that this is how it should be.
