"no."

Zhou Jinyan glanced at him and said with a smile, "How about it, do you have any clues?"

"There is too little evidence, and it is difficult to make a decision."

"As for the investigation, we have to go to the scene to observe and observe. Where can we find out what can be interrogated?"

Zhou Jinyan smiled slightly, "Let's see if I help you close this case."

"Really?" Niu Potian was surprised.

"Why don't you believe me?" Zhou Jinyan said with a smile, "It's just a settlement. I dare not say anything about major cases. It's easy for me to solve small cases. Let me settle the case in one day."

Niu Potian forced a laugh, but he didn't take it seriously, thinking that Zhou Jinyan was talking big.

"Go," Zhou Jinyan looked at Wang Er, "you come too, let's go to your house and have a look."

The Wang family is not far from the Governor's Mansion, just to the west of the city. When we arrived, it was indeed a wealthy family, but because of the death of the bride, the family court became a bit miserable.

"Inspector Zhou, County Magistrate Wang, please come among you."

With a bitter face, Wang Er led the way ahead.

Not long after, Wang Youcai, the head of the Wang family, also rushed over, cautiously staying by his side, saying from time to time that his son would not kill anyone.

A group of people soon arrived outside the new house.

Zhou Jinyan glanced around, climbed up the steps, and pushed in the door. The new house didn't move much, and the three-zhang white silk was still hanging on the hanging beams, which was in stark contrast to the red and festive surroundings.

Wang Er cried and said: "It was fine, why did he commit suicide? I really don't understand, I didn't do anything to apologize to him."

Niu Potian said in a nonchalant manner: "Is it because you killed it, let the two talk about it, don't talk about suicide or suicide."

Wang Er whispered: "I didn't kill anyone."

But looking at Niu Potian's face, he didn't dare to speak loudly.

Zhou Jinyan circled around and suddenly asked, "Where's the bride's body?"

"Uh, I was carried away by the guards."

Wang Er looked at Niu Potian.

Niu Potian nodded.

Zhou Jinyan thought for a moment, then walked out.

"Inspector Zhou, I really didn't kill anyone."

When Wang Er saw them coming and going, he shouted loudly.

"Stop talking nonsense, you didn't kill him, and you will never be wronged."

After getting into the carriage, Zhou Jinyan looked at Wang Er who was dejected behind him, and said softly: "Magistrate Niu, what reason do you think the bride would have, why would she want to commit suicide?"

"Well," Niu Potian scratched his head, "maybe there is an old lover, this Wang Er robbed the bride and caused the bride to commit suicide?"

"It's possible." Zhou Jinyan nodded slightly.

"It's possible to be insulted."

"insult?"

Zhou Jinyan said to himself: "She is a bride, how could she be insulted?"

Suddenly his eyes lit up and he clapped his hands, "Yes!"

"have what?"

"It's very simple, go back later and wait for me to catch the murderer."

Niu Potian was puzzled, but he didn't want to ask too many questions.

It didn't take long for a group of people to return to the Governor's Mansion.

Zhou Jinyan approached Wang Er and asked, "What couplet did the bride give you at that time?"

"Oh, the couplet is: East Wing Room, West Wing Room, the newcomer in the old room enters the bridal chamber, the best man for life."

Zhou Jinyan said in surprise: "This couplet is wonderful, what are you doing?"

"I didn't go out." Wang Er's face became more bitter.

Zhou Jinyan snorted, and said lightly: "You go first, I will send you when there is something to do."

"Inspector Zhou, I really didn't kill anyone." Wang Er hurriedly called out to Qu, looking like he was afraid that he would cut himself off accidentally.

"I see, Ben Qingtian will never frame you, if you didn't kill someone."

Wang Er was grateful for Dade's being locked up in the cell.

"How to do it?" Niu Potian looked at it for a long time, but he didn't know what Zhou Jinyan meant.

"Go get a pen and ink, write out the couplet just now, and then post it up so that people can correct it."

"Excuse me for being stupid, what is the purpose of doing this?"

"You do it first, and when the time comes, everything will naturally become clear." Zhou Jinyan smiled and said: "As for the excuse, let's just say that it is to recruit well-educated people and master opponents to come to the house to solve the case together. If you can solve the case, you will be rewarded." With a hundred gold, he can also serve in the mansion."

Niu Potian opened his mouth, he was puzzled, he didn't want to ask more questions, and retreated with his head down.

Not long after the notice was posted, it caused a sensation in the entire county.

A lot of talented and learned people came out one after another, racked their brains, and sent a satisfactory answer to the Governor's Mansion.

Zhou Jinyan was talking with Haizao, and when he saw Niu Potian sent a lot of couplets, he couldn't help saying: "The show is coming, let's see it first."

Seaweed blinked, "So we can see who is coming?"

"If you're right, the murderer is among them."

After a pause, he added, "It may also be in the couplet later."

After a few glances, Zhou Jinyan divided the couplets into two piles, and then said, "Go get someone to call Wang Er."

"Here."

After Wang Er came, Zhou Jinyan waved to him, "Come here."

Wang Er hurriedly stepped forward cautiously, and said in a trembling voice: "Inspector Zhou, do you have a clue about why you came to me?"

Zhou Jinyan knocked on the table, "Look at these couplets and see if there are any familiar people."

Wang Er was startled, quickly looked down, flipped through the pages one by one, and finally took out several, "These are all my friends, and I know them too."

Zhou Jinyan frowned, "When did you see them?"

"I just met yesterday, and they attended my wedding." When Wang Er talked about this, he felt sad and wanted to shed tears.

"Well, look at your cowardice, can you show some manliness?" Zhou Jinyan said with a straight face, "Let me ask you, when did you meet these people?"

"They left after drinking the wedding wine. It was noon yesterday."

"Well, don't go, just wait here."

Wang Er was puzzled and did not dare to say more.

Seaweed said softly, "Is there no murderer here?"

"I don't know. Wait and see."

After a short wait, Niu Potian came in with a stack of papers in his hand, "That's about it, I don't see anyone there."

Zhou Jinyan took it and handed it to Wang Er without looking at it.

Wang Er understood and picked out several couplets not long after.

"This is?" Niu Potian was puzzled.

Zhou Jinyan ignored him, "When did you see them all?"

"These are also my good friends, they all left at noon."

Chapter 569 Lord of Yazhou

"Oh, that's not right, the last time I saw this was last night." Zhou Jinyan took a look, and saw that it said: "Study in the south, study in the north, learn from the imperial school in the primary school exam, and marry the bride."

The inscribed name is Terracotta Warriors.

"Terracotta Warriors?" Zhou Jinyan looked at Wang Er.

Wang Er blinked, "Does Governor Zhou suspect him?"

Zhou Jinyan shook his head, "Tell me about how you met that night."

Wang Erdao: "That night, I couldn't bridal chamber, I was upset, so I went out for a walk, and then I ran into him."

"You also told him about the bride's couplet, didn't you?"

"That's true."

Zhou Jinyan said with a smile: "This person is the murderer, magistrate Niu, go and bring him to me."

Although Niu Potian didn't understand, he still arrested him.

"No way?"

Wang Er nervously said: "This is my best friend, how could he kill someone?"

"Whether to kill or not, just bring him here and listen to what he has to say."

Wang Er was very preoccupied, and it didn't take long for the terracotta warriors to be brought in.

The terracotta warriors have sharp-mouthed monkey cheeks, which don't make a good impression at first glance.

"Terracotta Warriors, are you convicted?"

Zhou Jinyan slapped the table heavily, glaring at the Terracotta Warriors.

The Terracotta Warriors raised their necks, "Dare to ask Inspector Zhou, what is my crime?"

"Last night, you heard about the couplet from your friend Wang Er. When you saw the beauty, you sneaked to Wang's house, pretended to be Wang Er's voice, answered the couplet, and then earned the bride's innocence, right?"

"You, how do you know?"

The Terracotta Warriors looked like they had seen a ghost, but they didn't know what they said, he was also completely finished.

Zhou Jinyan laughed loudly, "I thought you could hold on for a while, but I never thought that you would be so careless, so you'll confess your guilt."

"me......."

The Terracotta Warriors came to their senses and wanted to quibble, but they knew it was too late.

Na Na twice, dejected.

"Terracotta Terracotta Warriors!"

Wang Er's beard and hair were all stretched out, and he rushed forward with big strides, "Are you a human being?"

Niu Potian kicked the terracotta warriors aside, watching Wang Er fight the terracotta warriors, but ignored it.

He walked up to Zhou Jinyan suspiciously, admiringly, but also suspiciously said: "How do you know he is a murderer?"

"Simple, the bride was insulted. Of course, all of this is based on assumptions."

Zhou Jinyan looked at the terracotta warriors, "On the night of the wedding, because the groom couldn't match the couplets, he happened to meet this good friend when he went out, so he told him the couplets written by the bride. These are easy to ask, and I can ask them out. I can guess a thing or two."

"Wang Er... Hehe, the Terracotta Warriors are different. They went to the groom's house secretly that night, and imitated the groom's voice to say the answer. Since it was late at night, he committed the crime. No. The bride who met Wang Er the next day and learned the truth committed suicide because she couldn't bear the humiliation."

Zhou Jinyan looked at Niu Potian, "The key lies in lust and the purpose of the bride's suicide."

Niu Potian said: "So, the bride still committed suicide?"

"Hehe, is it important? Without the terracotta warriors, the bride would not commit suicide, so even if she didn't kill her, it's no different from her murder."

Niu Potian still frowned, as if he still didn't understand.

"Actually, the Terracotta Warriors insisted on not admitting it. This matter is a bit more difficult, but if he admits it himself, it will be much easier. If you ask an experienced woman to investigate, if you can find out, the bride is no longer innocent. body."

Niu Potian smiled wryly and said: "What else are you looking for? The Terracotta Warriors have already recognized it. I just feel sorry for Governor Zhou's thinking. Why can't I think of these things?"

"Don't blame yourself either."
