Assassin peach does not change

Tao Buhuan leisurely flicked his whip to drive the horse outside, and occasionally listened to the faint voices of two people talking from inside the carriage.

She didn't need to look to know that the two people in the carriage must be sitting upright, not crooked like her.

Feeling playful, Tao Buhuan twitched his ass and yelled "Drive—"

The carriage picked up speed immediately, and Tao Buhuan peeked inside through the raised curtain, and sure enough, the two old pedants were already stumbling around, in a panic.

At the moment when Tao Buhuan was giggling, Jiang Youpan's sharp gaze came out from the carriage, and was firmly fixed on Tao Buhuan's face.Tao Buhuan stuck out his tongue, and gradually became more honest, never daring to cause trouble again.

Jian Jia didn't notice Tao Buchang's nonsense, but corrected her sitting posture, cleared her throat, and said, "Yang Nie was originally my neighbor, and their house is next door to ours. Yang Nie's father was originally a member of the army, but later because of some things He was dismissed and investigated, and stayed at home with free money. Later, he started a weaving business and gradually made a small fortune.

Yang Nie was smart since he was a child, and his father also pinned all his hopes on him, buying him an exam certificate and taking off his status as a merchant, hoping that one day he could go to high school and shine in the family. "

Having said that, Jian Jia paused, and looked at Jiang Yousi.The story is very long, I don't know if Jiang Youpan has enough patience to listen to it.

Jiang Youbi nodded and said, "Continue talking."

So Jian Jia continued: "Yang Nie's homework is indeed the best in the private school, and he is also known as a "child prodigy".

He passed the provincial examination at the age of ten, the county examination at the age of 14, and became a Jinshi at the age of 16.

Originally, he would be able to pass the palace exam after another exam, but he disappeared on the day of the exam and missed the exam in vain. "

"Why did he disappear that day?" Jiang Youpan asked.

"I don't know either..." Jian Jia shook her head, "I only know that he seemed to be a completely changed person after he disappeared and returned. He no longer wants to read books, and he no longer practices calligraphy.

"It is impossible for a person's temperament to change drastically in a short period of time, unless something big enough to affect his temperament occurs."

"Well, maybe that disappearance changed him. Everyone asked him where he went, what he did, and what happened when he disappeared.

But he just replied that he went out to relax, because he was tired on the road, so he fell asleep halfway, and when he woke up, he had missed the scientific examination, and nothing major happened during it. "

Jian Jia turned her eyes slightly, and looked down at the carpet of the carriage.

"Since Yang Nie has become decadent, how did he enter the Jiangzhou Observatory as an aide?"

Jian Jia continued to tell: "Although Uncle Yang was dismissed, he has joined the army in Jiangzhou for more than ten years, and he has some contacts and methods.

Seeing that there was no way to pass the imperial examination, he thought about doing something for Yang Nie.So he spent money to ask someone to find a relationship and let Yang Nie enter the Jiangzhou Observer's mansion as an aide.

Originally, according to Yang Nie's reputation, he was wronged by asking him to be a small staff member. The observation envoy Mr. Wang is also a person who cherishes talents. He was supposed to be given an official position, but Yang Nie himself refused. "

"Why refuse?"

"Yang Nie said that being an aide can be free and free. Being an official is bound by rules and regulations, which is very uncomfortable."

Jian Jia replied, adding, "There is a famous flower street in Jiangzhou, Liuxiang, which we all call "Flower Alley", and he often runs to Siyuefang, a house in the flower alley. "

"How did you know all these things?" Jiang Youpan stared at her face, paying attention to the subtle changes on her face.

If it is true as described in the case file, Jian Jia fled privately because she opposed the marriage arranged by her parents, and Yang Nie chased and killed Yang Nie halfway, then she should hate Yang Nie very much, how would she know about him? so many messages?

This is very abnormal...

Jian Jia was very calm, raised her eyelashes slightly, and said calmly: "My brother and Yang Nie are good friends, they went to private schools and took the imperial examination together.

All the information I know is from my brother. If you don't believe me, you can ask my brother after you arrive in Jiangzhou.

But I need to remind my lord that my brother is also a dude, what makes him worse than Yang Nie is that Yang Nie has at least some talent, and my brother doesn't behave like a scholar at all. "

"There is an inn in front, let's stop and feed the horses before entering the city." Tao Buchang suggested.

Jian Jia raised the curtain and looked at the inn, her hand holding the curtain trembled slightly.

"Is this inn the place where the murder happened?" Jiang Youpan saw that her expression was wrong, and deduced after contacting the file.

Jian Jia nodded, "It's here..."

Jiang Youpan said nothing to Tao outside: "Park the car here and let the coachman feed the horses. Let's stop and rest."

Tao Buhuan replied "Okay..." Then he drove the carriage and parked in front of the inn, jumped out of the carriage by himself, and looked up at the inn.

"Fuyuan Inn..." Tao Buhuan said, smiling, "It's really a tacky name."

Jiang Youpan and Jian Jia got out of the car one after another. Jiang Youpan shook the dust off his sleeves, glanced at the peach, and walked into the inn calmly.

Jian Jia bowed to Tao Bu, and followed Jiang Youpan in.

Tao Buhuan snorted coldly, handed the horse-training whip to the coachman who followed, and walked into the inn with his hands behind his back.

Fuyuan Inn is different from other inns. It is purposely built on the side of the official road more than ten miles away from Jiangzhou City. What is sure is that Jiangzhou City is located inland and surrounded by mountains on three sides. There are lush forests.

The most convenient way for outsiders to go to Jiangzhou is to take this forest road.

But the forest road is tens of miles long, and the horses and horses must be exhausted halfway, so a businessman built an inn here for businessmen to rest and rectify.

This inn has been in business for more than ten years, and the business has not been salty or dull, and the businessmen who contributed money have no intention of neglecting it, so they have been open and continue to operate.

It is named "Fuyuan", which shows that we hope that lucky and fateful guests will come in.On the contrary, there is no blessing and no fate.

The manager of the inn is a tall, middle-aged man who looks smart and capable. He has four or five waiters under him, all of whom are as capable as monkeys.

The shopkeeper's surname also happened to be "Hou", so he got the nickname "Sun Monkey King".

When Jiang Yousi and others came, the Fuyuan Inn was deserted.It's off season and there aren't many guests.

Monkey King Sun was flicking his abacus at the counter to settle the accounts, but he seemed to have made a mistake in his calculations, and kept frowning to recalculate.

One of the waiters found three luxuriously dressed guests, hurriedly put the rag in his hand on his shoulders, and came to welcome the three of them.

"Should the three of you stay in the hotel or eat?"

"Eat..." Jiang Yousi said.

"Okay, sir, please sit here, and order at the counter, please." The waiter poured tea attentively, while he couldn't stop glancing at the peaches out of the corner of his eye.

Jiang Youpan coughed lightly: "Enough tea..."

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry."

Tao didn't change her buttocks before she got up and said, "I'll look around."

"Um……"

Jiang Yousi and Jian Jia were left silent for a moment. Seeing Jian Jia's complexion, Jiang Yousi guessed that she must have remembered what happened in the inn that night. After looking around, he said, "This inn has a third floor. It’s a tall building, the first floor is for dining, the second and third floors are guest rooms, and there are side rooms on all sides as soon as you enter the door, the stairs are next to the counter on the first floor, and you must pass the shopkeeper’s counter to go upstairs.”

His gaze swept across Jian Jia's face, "You fled that day, entered the door to rest here, who did you see, and what happened?"

Jian Jia frowned, and secretly tightened her hands on her knees: "It rained heavily that night, and I stayed at the Fuyuan Inn. When I entered, there was only one clerk and the shopkeeper on the first floor, and there were no other guests present. They must have already rested. .

Only two lamps were lit in the huge inn, one was for the shopkeeper, and the other was held by the clerk to take me upstairs to check in.

At that time, there was just one room left, Room No. [-].After the man led me upstairs, I went downstairs. After I entered the room, I locked the door and prepared to go downstairs to eat something, because I was really hungry.

After I finished eating, I went upstairs again, and slept until just after dawn, a group of yamen servants knocked on the door to arrest people.

At first I thought it was my father who sent me back, until—until they dragged out Yang Nie's body from under my bed..."

"Has your door ever been pushed in the middle of the night?" Jiang Youpan asked.

"No..." Jian Jia shook her head, "When the yamen servant knocked on the door, I opened it myself, the latch is intact, and has never been tampered with.

I also put a basin of water at the door. If someone came in through the door halfway, the basin of water would be overturned. "

"Is it possible to get in through the window?"

"I live on the second floor, there is a river outside the window, it is impossible for someone to crawl in with Yang Nie's body and I don't know anything about it.

At least I know a little bit of medical skills, and I know the smell of smoke. There was no smoke in my room that night, and there was no drug in my diet. "Jian Jia is very sure.

Jiang Yousi pondered: "There is also a possibility that Yang Nie was not killed and brought in, but climbed into your window by himself and hid under your bed."

Jian Jiaxu covered her mouth and nose, and said in shock, "You mean Yang Nie committed suicide?"

Then he shook his head again, "It's impossible, how could a person like him commit suicide, how could he somehow crawl into my room and commit suicide under my bed? It's impossible..."

Jiang Youpan said flatly: "Exclude all the impossible, and the rest, no matter how absurd, may be the truth."

"I still think it is impossible for Yang Nie to commit suicide. If he committed suicide, why did he cut off his right ear? Could it be that he is crazy?"

Jiang Yousi also noticed this strange thing in the case file, so why did he cut off his ears as long as he killed someone?

Her intuition told her that the matter of cutting off her ears might have to be asked, or it might have something to do with the rules of the bone building.

Tao Buhuan just appeared at this time, with a bunch of keys in his hand, looked down at the two of them and said, "How about it, do you want to visit the scene of the crime?"
