I am the best in the world with the crime solving system
Chapter 127 Asking Qu An (2)
Qu An ridiculed, "The elders of the family asked the great-grandfather to arrange for their descendants to take posts in the county government and the sheriff's office. The great-great-grandfather explained that he did not have such rights, but the elders thought he had forgotten his ancestors. The capital went to Jingzhao Mansion to wait for the Yamen to sue Grandfather Gao. Although they were driven out of the capital by the Nan Yawei, after they returned to Dongyin County, they relied on Grandfather Gao’s reputation and committed evil for several years. In the end, they were the county magistrates at that time. Master Wang couldn't see it, so he went to Beijing to inform Grandpa Gao, and Grandpa Gao wrote back and asked Sir Wang to handle it according to law, so they gradually restrained themselves."
Chen Chaoyan said thoughtfully: "That is to say, the offshoot of the Qu family living in the ancestral home is very likely to harbor resentment towards you?"
Qu An said indifferently: "It should be."
Chen Chaoyan looked at the servant book again, and after getting her nod, she turned to the topic and asked about the case: "The coachman who took your grandfather to Widow Zhou's house came from Taiyin County from the capital. It is said that he should be loyal to the Qu family. If you Grandfather was murdered, so what do you think is the reason why he betrayed the Qu family? Or, before your grandfather was murdered, did you scold him for something, which made him feel revengeful?"
"No." Qu An said without hesitation.
Chen Chaoyan reminded, "Maybe you should think about it carefully."
"Don't think about it, it's just not." Qu An said with certainty.Seeing Chen Chaoyan's disbelief, he explained, "My great-grandfather, grandfather and father are all easy-going people. Even if the subordinates make mistakes, they seldom criticize them. They just teach them to be careful next time. When my great-grandfather was running for Dongyin County, my grandfather He and my father have been accompanying me all the time, if Miss Chen doesn't believe it, she can ask those people who have received my grandfather's favor and still have a conscience."
Judging by the gnashing of teeth, it seems that he has been looking for those people a lot these years.Chen Chaoyan raised his eyebrows imperceptibly, and changed the subject: "Is that coachman still alive?"
Qu An said bitterly: "He is from the capital, and he went back not long after his grandfather had an accident. I don't know if he is still alive or not."
Chen Chaoyan looked at Xie Xuan.
Xie Xuan said calmly: "The man has been found, and he is on his way to Dongyin County."
Chen Chaoyan nodded in satisfaction, then turned around and continued to ask: "Does that coachman have any bad habits? Like drinking, greedy for money."
Qu An suddenly raised his head: "He is addicted to gambling! Grandpa helped him pay off his gambling debts many times!"
It was a windfall.Chen Chaoyan glanced at the case file, and after confirming that there was no relevant record in the case file, he then asked him: "After the case happened, didn't you tell the county magistrate of Dongyin County or the sheriff of Luyang County about this situation?"
Qu An unconsciously clenched his hands into fists, "No."
Chen Chaoyan frowned slightly, "Why?"
Qu An clenched his fists even tighter, "No one asked."
Does anyone need to ask?Chen Chaoyan was speechless for a moment.
Qu An might also feel ashamed, and after a long silence, he tentatively asked, "Miss Chen thinks that the groom has been bribed?"
Chen Chaoyan was even more speechless, "If your grandfather was framed, besides being bribed, is there any other possibility?"
Qu An's face turned pale.
Chen Chaoyan didn't intend to accuse him of anything, after all, he was only 13 years old when the crime happened.Looking at the case file again, he asked him: "Where are your grandfather's friends, do they have a bad style that can be used as an excuse to blackmail them?"
Qu An's face turned even paler, "One of them is obsessed with collecting antique calligraphy and paintings, the other is obsessed with women's sex, and the other is serious and ordinary."
Looking at his expression, Chen Chaoyan knew the situation of these three people, and they didn't know much about it back then.
"I'll check now!" Qu An quickly got up and said.
"Don't worry." Chen Chaoyan said a few words of reassurance, and after he calmed down, he asked, "Are they all still alive?"
"Two are still alive, and one died ten years ago." Qu An replied quickly, "The one who is alive is a person obsessed with collecting antique calligraphy and paintings and women."
"You answered so quickly and understood so clearly. It seems that you have been traveling a lot these years." Chen Chaoyan said.
Qu An laughed at himself: "What's the use of running too much? I haven't even thought about why they wronged my grandfather."
"The authorities are obsessed, and the bystanders are clear. It's normal." Chen Chaoyan comforted him again, and continued to ask, "After your grandfather was arrested, you should all have visited him in prison, right? What did he tell you at the time, do you remember?"
"I remember." Qu An didn't dare to hide anything, and said quickly, "Grandfather said that he passed out not long after he got into the carriage. When he woke up again, he was in Widow Zhou's room. I woke up from the severe pain, and as soon as I woke up, Widow Zhou's uncle broke into the house."
"Is Widow Zhou's uncle still alive?" Chen Chaoyan asked casually.
"He died early." Qu An said coldly, "After my grandfather was escorted to Luyang County, he first ran to the gate of Qu's house and cried loudly, and then broke into the house openly and honestly, claiming that it was Qu. The family owes him. Once, he snatched the white jade screen from his grandfather’s house, and when he was returning, he fell into the Dongjiang River and drowned.”
Chen Chaoyan took advantage of the situation and asked, "Who else is there in the Zhou family?"
"Widow Zhou's son and daughter, her brother-in-law's two sons." Qu An replied.
Chen Chaoyan glanced at his secretly clenched fist, "They all live in Dongyin County?"
Qu'an gave an 'um'.
Chen Chaoyan tapped the armrest with her fingertips, and did not continue to ask.He lowered his eyes and meditated for a few breaths, and after making sure that he knew everything he needed to know about Qu Wensheng's case, he raised his head again and asked about his father, that is, Qu Qiyuan's suicide, "What do you want from your father's suicide?" said?"
Qu An said bluntly: "My father will not commit suicide!"
Chen Chaoyan looked at him, "Why?"
"Because my father said that after my grandfather's case is resolved, he will continue to take the imperial examination." Qu An said firmly, "My grandfather is a Ph.D. , and practice calligraphy with my grandfather. Although my father had to leave the Imperial College because he failed many exams, he always wanted to go back to the Imperial College and follow in the footsteps of my grandfather. One year before my grandfather’s accident, my father was finally admitted to the top three. , It’s just that it’s extremely difficult to stay in the capital after getting bad grades, let alone entering the Imperial College. My grandfather was afraid that he would lose heart, so he often sent letters to encourage him not to give up studying.”
"My mother has been encouraging him."
"So my father never gave up and continued to take the imperial examination."
"Even if my grandfather had an accident and my great-grandfather asked him to go to Luyang County to serve as a recorder and join the military, my father didn't give up."
Chen Chaoyan interrupted him, "How do you prove that your father didn't give up?"
Qu Andao: "After my father decided to go to Luyang County, my mother has already packed the luggage. Most of the luggage is the books my father reads on weekdays."
Chen Chaoyan asked: "Your father is going to Luyang County, will your mother and you also go with him?"
Qu An nodded, "Yes, since my father and my mother got married, they have never been separated except to go to the capital to participate in the scientific examination a few times."
Chen Chaoyan asked again: "Your father only married your mother?"
Qu An nodded again, with a calm face, only ordinary.
Chen Chaoyan pursed her lips slightly, and her attitude softened unconsciously, "Tell me about your father and Qi Wu."
"When my grandfather was hunting in Changze Mountain with some friends, he fell into the trap of a hunter by mistake. Uncle Qi happened to be hunting in that mountain. When he heard the call for help, he rushed over to save my grandfather. My father came to him with a generous gift. When I went home to thank him, I got to know him. Later, when I learned that he was studying in the county school, I gradually became acquainted and became friends." Qu An mentioned Qi Wu, although his words were not very close, but he could hear that he was not very close. Not disgusted, "Later, my father often invited him to study with him at home, and the relationship became better."
"When my father passed the top three imperial examinations, my mother was worried that he would go out alone. After Uncle Qi found out, he volunteered to accompany my father. My father fell ill before the exam, and it was thanks to Uncle Qi who took care of him. "
"Later, my grandfather had an accident. My father had never been through a major incident before. When he was so anxious that he didn't know what to do, it was Uncle Qi who came forward to help him run around. Later, after my father committed suicide in Changze Mountain, he also The one I found the most diligently. It was only after my father was buried that he went to Luyang County to replace my father as a post in the military, so he gradually became estranged from the Qu family."
"However, that can't be blamed on him. It was I who relied on my old friendship, lost my eyes for a while, and went to ask him to reverse the case for my grandfather from time to time. He helped me several times, and after finding the same result, he persuaded him I gave up and refused to help me anymore, so I gradually alienated."
"Nevertheless, after all these years, thanks to his entrusting someone to send me money, food, and clothing every month, I have survived until now."
Chen Chaoyan's eyes moved faintly, "Your current wife..."
"It was my former maid." Before she could finish asking, Qu An said, "After all the people in Qu's house left and scattered, she was the only one who stayed and continued to take care of me. She didn't mind The Qu family is poor and has a filthy reputation, so what right do I have to despise her low status?"
Chen Chaoyan just asked casually, and had no intention of delving into his private life.After taking a few sips of tea and moistening her throat, she turned back to the topic, "Qi Wu came back a while ago, have you ever been to Qu Zhai?"
Qu An nodded: "Come here."
Chen Chaoyan asked: "Did I tell you anything?"
Qu An was silent for a moment, and then said: "Give me ten pennies, and when I saw Kui'er who came back from the field, I called him to the front, and after a few knowledge tests, I proposed to betroth his granddaughter to Kui'er, but rejected by me."
Chen Chaoyan looked at him in surprise, and then asked again: "Do you know about Qi Wu leaving his family and running away alone?"
Qu An remained silent for a moment before saying, "I know."
Chen Chaoyan saw that he was hiding something, so she waited quietly for him.
After a long while, Qu An tightened and tightened his fist repeatedly, and said: "After he escaped, he came to Qu Zhai again, and told me not to tell me about all the things he took care of me recently."
Chen Chaoyan said calmly, "Have you asked him why?"
Qu An nodded, "He said that he was not an upright official, and he also joined forces with Wang Da and others, and embezzled a lot of money. The prince may come to Dongyin County to arrest him. In order to prevent me from being implicated, it is best to cut off relations with him. "
Chen Chaoyan stared at him for a while: "Have you ever thought that maybe he is the murderer who killed your father?"
"Impossible!" Qu An blurted out instantly.I don't know if I am unwilling to accept this fact, or I believe in Qi Wu's character.
But Chen Chaoyan didn't give him a chance to escape, "Why is it impossible?"
Qu An didn't speak, but clenched his fists tightly.
Chen Chaoyan said thoughtfully: "That is to say, the offshoot of the Qu family living in the ancestral home is very likely to harbor resentment towards you?"
Qu An said indifferently: "It should be."
Chen Chaoyan looked at the servant book again, and after getting her nod, she turned to the topic and asked about the case: "The coachman who took your grandfather to Widow Zhou's house came from Taiyin County from the capital.
