Number of romantic figures

Chapter 1346 Xin Zijuan Setting Sun, Grass, Trees and Chopper Trial (2)

For the next two days, Feng Ziying was concentrating on reviewing the files, and also called several veteran officials in the punishment room to inquire about the situation, and had a more detailed understanding of the whole case.

The case is not complicated to be precise, except that the relationship between these people is complicated. The Su family brothers, Zheng and Jiang Ziqi, in Feng Ziying's view, the possibility of killing them is gradually increasing.

The three brothers of the Su family are all legitimate sons. Although Su Daqiang took property worth tens of thousands of taels, which made them very dissatisfied, Feng Ziying personally thinks that the possibility is relatively small whether it is worth it to hire murderers. Murder is even more impossible. There are two brothers who can basically be ruled out, and the only one who can't be ruled out. Feng Ziying feels that if he puts his heart into checking, he can find a way to rule it out.

His current thinking is to use the method of elimination. He thinks that the possibility is the least likely to be eliminated as soon as possible. On the Zheng side, Feng Ziying thinks that there are other weird things in it that are more likely.

The Zheng family has something to do with Concubine Zheng, and Concubine Zheng should also know that if it is really involved in a murder case, if she gets involved rashly, she will not be able to get rid of it in the future, but still intervening, it means that this should have nothing to do with the murder case. right.

There should be some other unspeakable hidden reason for such reckless intervention, but it should have nothing to do with this case. Of course, this is Feng Ziying's own judgment, and it needs to be proved.

For Feng Ziying, this is not a bad thing. Although the Zheng family is only a noble concubine, her father has some background. Being an official in Shuntian Mansion, the biggest advantage is that she can get acquainted and recruit various network resources.

Feng Ziying never expected to rely solely on like-minded ideals or network resources such as classmates and teachers. According to the United Front, it is to achieve the goal, to make as many friends as possible, and to make enemies as much as possible. Little, this is a truth that applies everywhere, and of course he will not give up.

As for Jiang Ziqi's side, Feng Ziying thinks the possibility should be the greatest. The most important point is that he said that he lived on the dock warehouse, but he just showed up in front of the night watchmen in the warehouse to prove his presence, but behind him It is impossible to prove that the more there are such deliberate leaks, the more likely Feng Ziying thinks.

In Feng Ziying's view, the investigation in Tongzhou was not detailed enough, and there is still a lot of work that can be investigated with a sinking heart, and some details can often play a vital role.

"Wen Yan, what do you think?" Feng Ziying finally read all the files, and read through some important confessions intensively. She felt that there was nothing wrong with it, so she recruited Wang Wenyan.

Wang Wenyan was born as a prison official, and is very familiar with such cases, "What do you think, my lord?"

"I want to hear your opinion first." Feng Ziying smiled and shook her head.

"Well, let me talk about it. I think the possibility of the Su brothers is very unlikely. I have learned that the Su brothers are not the kind of domineering characters in Tongzhou. They are not angry with Su Daqiang's mother. Su Daqiang's mother is a kabuki. Su The old man has been fond of him for decades. Su Daqiang and his mother were originally outlaws, but later, when the old man got older, he was brought in. It is no wonder that the Su brothers always think that Su Daqiang is a bastard,..."

Wang Wenyan said succinctly, "Su Daqiang's two elder brothers have always been honest, and they have no connection with the rivers, lakes and green forests. They can't do such things as buying murderers and killing people, and they don't dare to do it themselves. Hey, don't even think about being safe for the rest of your life, with the delicate temperament of the Su brothers in business, it won't be like this..., Su Daqiang is a bit powerful, and ordinary people can't beat him, only the fourth child of the Su family, this person is easy to gamble, You like to go to the brothel, so the family property is almost ruined, and I have contacts with those bachelors on the ground. I have always hoped to take back Su Daqiang's family property and return it to myself. Difficulty, with certain possibility,..."

Feng Ziying nodded slightly, Wang Wenyan's point of view was basically the same as his, but this fourth Su...

"Fourth Su, do you think the possibility is high?"

Wang Wenyan smiled and shook his head: "Actually, I think the possibility of Su Laosi is the least likely..."

"Oh?" Feng Ziying was puzzled.

"Because of this guy's later performance, after Su Daqiang's death, this guy rushed to the door, saying that Su Daqiang's family property shouldn't have so much, and part of it should belong to the Su family. The head of the family came to redistribute the family property fairly, and had a quarrel with the Zheng family, and the Zheng family was also a little afraid of this little uncle, so he backed down step by step,..."

Wang Wenyan laughed, "My lord, under common sense, if you were the suspect, would you make a fuss around in such a ostentatious way, lest the world know?"

Feng Ziying smiled, "What if this guy deliberately pretends to be upright so as to show that he has a clear conscience?"

"It's not unreasonable for your lord to say that, but as far as we know in classical Chinese, the fourth brother Su is simple-minded and doesn't have any plans to do things. It seems that he can't think so deeply. In addition, it is understood that the fourth brother Su has been quarreling with his elder brother and second brother all the time. , think that the family property is less, and ask his two elder brothers to redistribute part of the family property to him. The two sides are still in a stalemate. I think that under this state, it is unlikely that he will suddenly murder Su Daqiang..."

Feng Ziying nodded, Wang Wenyan's point of view was quite reasonable.

There is no reason why this side is still fighting for the family property with his two elder brothers, but the other side suddenly wants to kill and seize the family property of a concubine brother, not to mention that even if his brother is killed, it is impossible for him to get the family property alone. Too inconsistent with the return.

"Classical Chinese, what we said is all conjecture. If we really want to rule out the fourth son of Su, we must have real evidence." Feng Ziying nodded, "I plan to go to Tongzhou tomorrow to see the situation in Tongzhou."

"Your Excellency should really go to Tongzhou for a visit. This case is the case of the previous magistrate of Tongzhou when he was in office. It is said that the former magistrate didn't pay much attention to this case, thinking that these are difficult to deal with, so he blindly pushed it to the government. , the current magistrate Fang Kezhuang took up the post together with your lord, it turned out to be the magistrate of Dingzhou in Baoding Prefecture, who was promoted, and it is said that he is quite capable."

Wang Wenyan already had an understanding of these situations.

"Well, I know Fang Kezhuang, and I'm a fellow from Qingzhou." Feng Ziying nodded. This person is indeed capable, but he is a bit stubborn and doesn't like to make friends. It is reasonable to say that he is a Jinshi from Yuanxi 39. , and is a second-class Jinshi, although he failed to become a good scholar, he also stayed in the Metropolitan Procuratorate for a few years, and later went to Dingzhou to serve as the magistrate, and then transferred to Tongzhou to be the magistrate. .

"Well, I heard that after he took office, he also rectified the local law and order, especially in the area around Tongzhou Wharf where assassins and tigers were rampant. He took down many people when he took office, and two of them were directly beaten to death in the lobby, which also attracted People in the world looked sideways, but the response from the local area was relatively good.”

Feng Ziying also heard about this situation after she took office. Tongzhou is the most important throat of the capital city. There are countless business travelers and goods passing by every day. If there is no stronger local official, it is really unbearable. It's a great job, I'm going to meet for a while.

*********
Before going to Tongzhou, Feng Ziying first visited Qiao Yingjia.

Now Qiao Yingjia is the censor of the right capital, and he is already the number two figure in the Metropolitan Procuratorate. In addition, he is the leader of the scholars in Shanxi, and finally has a lot of prestige among the scholars in the north. In the case of Su Daqiang, the Jiang family where Jiang Ziqi belongs is in the Metropolitan Procuratorate. Both the Courtyard and Dali Temple have contacts, and the Su family has people in the Xuncheng Procuratorate, and they are all inextricably linked with the Metropolitan Procuratorate. All kinds of constraints.

Qiao Yingjia didn't say anything after hearing Feng Ziying's introduction. It was not up to Feng Ziying, the prime minister, to investigate the case, but Feng Ziying wanted to quickly open up the situation and establish his prestige. It is undoubtedly a good idea to make a fuss about such a well-known case. Choose, of course Qiao Yingjia must support.

Qiao Yingjia from Jiang Xuchuan's side will go to say hello. The case has dragged on for so long, and it will definitely not work if it is not investigated. If it continues like this, it will damage the reputation of any company.

It's the same with Su Yunqian. The censors of the Xuncheng Procuratorate are all from the Metropolitan Procuratorate. Of course, when they go to the Xuncheng Procuratorate, they will basically not buy too much into the account of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, but the origin is still there. See, no one wants to have a grudge against a boss like Qiao Yingjia.

It doesn’t take long to go to Tongzhou by land from the capital city. It mainly depends on how you go. If you drive all the way, you can get there in less than half a day, but if you want to travel slowly in an official sedan chair, you can’t get there in a day. If it is a carriage, one day is just right.

Feng Zongying left a little earlier and still rode in a carriage. Riding a horse was still a bit rude for civil officials. Although Feng Ziying didn't think so, he couldn't go against the views of scholars.

Before leaving, Cao Yu was recruited by Feng Ziying. Since Anxin wants to handle this case well, the necessary publicity must keep up, but the premise is that the case can be solved perfectly.

"I've met Mr. Feng." Fang Kezhuang saw the carriage from a long distance away. He didn't like this kind of greeting and sending, but Feng Ziying followed the carriage lightly, and first stated that he was only here for the case and nothing else. He was so knowledgeable. Naturally, Fang Kezhuang wouldn't be too indifferent, and he still had to follow the rules he should have.

"Master Fang, you are welcome. Linqing is not too far from Qingzhou, and Ziying has already heard about Mr. Fang's name, so I was lucky enough to meet you today..."

Feng Ziying is very polite. Fang Kezhuang has a better impression of Feng Ziying. He used to think that this is Qi Yongtai's favorite student. He has some talents, but he is more lucky and supported by big bosses. But he is so humble, which makes him The impression has changed somewhat.

Feeling that Fang Kezhuang is a person who doesn't like politeness, Feng Ziying went straight to the topic after a few greetings.
