Dali Siqing solves the case and is super god

When I opened my eyes again, it was already bright daylight.

In the morning, the summer wind is not so dry and hot, it crosses the window lightly and falls on the room, bringing sweet and light floral fragrance, Chao Muyun smells the smell of gardenia, maybe there is jasmine?

The yard was quiet and silent, and even the chirping of the birds had dissipated after the early morning. This slightly late morning seemed to be no different from the past.

The officialdom, the rivers and lakes, people's teeth, the team of old men who appeared inexplicably... the experience of the previous day and two nights seemed to be a dream, and nothing happened in reality... It was too amazing and too bizarre.

Chao Muyun supported the bed with his hands and got up, remembering the last scene before he lost consciousness, it seemed that his vision went dark and he fell off the horse?

Apart from the aches and pains in his thighs and lower back caused by riding a horse, there were no other traumas on his body, and there were no superficial abrasions. Either someone caught him in time, or... Ye Wugou's horse is too sensible.

Hearing movement in the room, Shiyaya knocked on the door and came in: "Don't move!" She quickly put down the washbasin, put on the handkerchief, and ran to Chao Muyun, "You fell straight from the horse yesterday, Shengsheng went towards the hoof of the horse, almost causing the horse to step on it. Fortunately, the horse was very sensible, stopped the momentum in time, and raised its hoof lightly to lift you. It seems that you didn't fall too much, but who knows? I really didn't fall, you move your arms and legs first, is there any pain?"

Chao Muyun said decisively: "No."

Picking up Yaya anxiously: "You haven't moved yet!"

Chao Muyun: ...

"It just moved."

Apart from the soreness of the muscles between the legs, there is no other discomfort.

Seeing that the little girl's eyes were still suspicious, he cleared his cough and got up to wash up: "Where's the horse?"

"I was just about to tell you about this..." The little girl pursed her lips slightly, apologetically, "Master Jiu has been out on business for the past two days, and he is not at home during the day and night. I am the only one at home. I didn't take care of that horse. ... I made a special place for it in the backyard as a stable, fed it, and it looked obedient and obedient, so I didn't get too attached to it. It didn't like being tied to a post, so I did as I wanted. It’s gone, anyway, there’s a barrier in front of the stable, so it can’t get out, but it ran away quietly last night!”

Chao Muyun paused: "Run away?"

"That's not it!" Shiyaya stomped his feet, "I fed you medicine, cleaned up the yard, and before going to bed, I thought that you would definitely wake up this morning. I wanted to send you some noodles to make buns, so I went to the kitchen. Well done, before I washed my hands, I heard a noise, like a whistle, like the wind, or someone’s house getting up a little louder at night, and the bay red horseman came to join in the fun like crazy, and even jumped out of the stable Come out, and run away without a trace!"

Chao Muyun: "Did you hear the whistle?"

Shi Yaya's round face wrinkled into a ball, quite remorseful: "Well...it's all my fault, I ran too slowly and didn't stop...whose horse is that? Is it expensive, can we afford it?"

That's right, the owner of the horse should have come and taken it away.

Chao Muyun comforted the little girl: "It's okay, the old horse knows the way, it will run back to its own home, and we don't need to pay for it."

The little girl was still a little impatient: "But..."

Chao Muyun washed his face and wiped his hands: "How long have I been asleep?"

"It's been a day and night," Shi Yaya said as he handed over the handkerchief, "did two rounds of medicine in the middle."

"Hou Jiuhong hasn't come back?"

"I came back at the beginning of Maochu, saw that you were still awake, and went out again, and said that I would come back at noon to take a look," Shi Yaya cleaned up neatly, "My lord, get up and have something to eat first, and look at the pile of files in the study , I guess he will be there."

Chao Muyun nodded: "Where are the others? I'm not at the official office of Dali Temple, can someone ask?"

"No, and no one came to look for him so ignorantly. Your Excellency is reliable and never delays. Everyone knows it."

"What about the capital city? Is there any trouble?"

"Trouble? What trouble?"

"For example, there are large-scale fights, some people are loudly beating drums to express their grievances, and the streets and alleys are discussing an extraordinary matter..."

"No, at the root of the imperial city, the emperor is in charge. Who dares to make such a fuss? I haven't heard of any major cases outside. The grandmother who sells vegetables outside the street has many relatives who work in rich families. There are so many new things every day. Today The other one is talking about other people's masters who are lustful, but also want to accept small tricks, nothing special..."

There is no movement... how is it possible?

Tiancun is a little far away from the capital, and it is too remote. If the movement there cannot reach the capital, Chao Muyun can still understand, but the team of old people who came back that night is not far from the city gate, and he asked Hua Kaiji to pick up and help. How could such a big move not be known?

There was also the 'tail' chasing him, but he went all the way into the capital, and when he reached the main street, he also used a jade bone fan to ask the Cao Gang for help. Breakfast waits for the city gate to open, it shouldn't be ignored, why not?

Chao Muyun felt incredible.

Did someone know about it and dare not speak up, or was it pushed down when they heard the movement, and they didn't dare to ask at all?

No matter which one it is, it can be seen that the hedging force of this incident is strong, and the capital... seems not as safe as imagined.

Chao Muyun thought about how to get the facts more appropriate, bowed his head to eat, went to the study after eating, and dealt with the thick files stacked on the table... It was all because of what the officials had said to Leng Nianwen in the past two days. The clues to the case were found.

About halfway through the turn, Hou Jiuhong came back.

"You are finally willing to open your eyes and do business!"

Looked up and down, left, right, left, right, right, and saw that the sick young man was still crooked and unable to die, no different from the past, Hou Jiuhong ran to the desk unceremoniously, and grabbed half a pot of tea to drink: "Didn't you ask me to find the jade pendant that Leng Nianwen lost around his neck?"

After finishing speaking, he folded his arms and looked at the other party triumphantly, the corners of his mouth were slightly raised, his pupils were proud and provocative, but he didn't speak...

This is for him to guess?

Does Hou Jiuhong find it difficult to express such obvious emotions?

Chao Muyun straightened his eyebrows and said, "You found it."

"hey-hey……"

Hou Jiuhong bared his teeth and smiled: "Didn't you ask me to check the time of death of the deceased? Leng Nianwen was drunk, and it was not too early when he left the crowd. Many servants saw him, and even though most of the guests had already left , The scope of the investigation is not too small, I heard a lot of people around the corner, and I am worried that I have no direction, guess what, the murderer made a mistake himself, and accidentally lost the jade pendant!"

Chao Muyun raised his eyebrows slightly: "Lost it?"

"Isn't it?" Hou Jiuhong took out a small box from his arms and opened it, "I found it!"

Chao Muyun took the small box and opened it. It was a jade pendant with double rings, which can also be called a jade ring. The base material is good and the workmanship is also excellent, but the craftsmanship is not unique: "Are you sure it was made by Leng Nianwen?"

Hou Jiuhong: "I've been recognized by the people who serve him, it's his stuff."

Chao Muyun: "Where did you find it?"

"Pawn shop," Hou Jiuhong said proudly of "unexpectedly", "This little thing was picked up in the grass by a servant in the garden, but this servant is not suspicious. I have carefully checked his timeline. The time of Leng Nianwen's death did not match. He had a very strong alibi. At that time, the servants who were on shift with him were busy, and it was impossible to have time to kill alone. This jade pendant was picked up by him after a long time. I didn’t know that it belonged to the deceased, so I thought it was left behind by some guest, and when I saw no one came looking for it, I thought that others didn’t care, so I sold it to the pawn shop——I pawned it back with money, remember to give the money.”

Chao Muyun glanced at him indifferently: "With you by my side these few months, it seems that you have made a lot of money?"

Hou Jiuhong coughed twice.

Money... Of course, he earned a lot.How about saying that a sick young man can mobilize and teach people? With his brain, he has robbed the rich and donated to the poor many times. He has developed good eyesight without accumulating any money. As soon as he passes valuable things in front of him, he will definitely be able to see them. Look out, it's a little dull in other respects.The sick man's methods are simply frenzied and outrageous. He is like a donkey, busy from morning to night every day, and every day he prepares carrots hanging in front of his head——

For example, what is lacking here, what is lacking there, and what business opportunities may arise in the next one or two months. You don’t need to use your brain, you are willing to work hard, and you can make a fortune by grasping the time difference. Some important evidence, such as a vase from the previous dynasty, a famous posthumous work, has not been found, and he has a vague direction, so let him look for it, but there is a reward, and by the way, he can compete with experts in the treasure appraisal industry, While expanding your network, you can also find some opportunities to make money; for example, if an official who goes to Dali Temple to seek an interview is not upright, go to catch some pigtails with him for two days, and others will tell you the opportunity to make money, which is reasonable and legal. By the way, the sick man can catch people and get them dealt with...

Hou Jiuhong now thinks what kind of bandit is he? Seeing the sky being scolded, there is not much benefit in his hands. Although this sick man has a heart, he is always scheming against him, using him to work and accomplish his own affairs, but the opportunity is real, concierge What's the matter, the concierge of the Dali Temple's Sicheng, speaking out is enough to bluff people, and according to the posture of a sick young man, how can a Sicheng be enough, as long as he can live, the future Dali Temple Minister will not be a problem!

And now whenever he scolds a sick man, he doesn't want to work, the brothers under him have already started to make trouble, saying that they want to switch to the boss, anyway, their village has no big brother since the death of the boss, so it's good to recognize another one, The second boss doesn't want to do it, they want to do it!

Hou Jiuhong was originally upright and firmly refused, for the sake of money... Forget it, let the sick man have a chance.

He also scolded his subordinate brothers with a stern face, taking advantage of the mentality of being a thief for a long time, he would be afraid of the superior, and "gentlely persuaded" them to leave. The sick man still has to come by himself, and he still has to be the porter himself. But other things, the younger brothers can help.

In short, if you have money, everyone should work together... No, if there is a case, everyone should investigate together. There are many people and strength, and serving the country is what every gentleman should do!

Hou Jiuhong thought that he was hiding something, and that others would not know about those small thoughts. Who knew that the sick man was so smart, and he usually didn't say a word.

What's the matter, threaten him, don't give these people a chance to make money next time?

Will Master Jiu be afraid?There's nothing shameful about earning money. Only those who can't make some money can live a good life. Knowing how to make money is a skill!

"What's wrong with earning some money? The money is all mine—"

Hou Jiuhong looked at Chao Muyun's more and more meaningful eyes, and subconsciously turned a corner: "But this time it is considered to be serving the country, and there are not many anyway. Master Jiu is generous, and there is no shortage of those three melons and two dates. You Don't pretend to be ill and make an inch of your life, let me tell you!"

This sick man is out of breath, don't say a few words, just turn over, he doesn't know how to treat illnesses!

Chao Muyun tapped the tabletop with his fingertips: "If there is a chance, please invite the brothers in the village to come and get together."

Hou Jiuhong immediately became vigilant: "What do you want to do? It's not enough to abduct me alone, and you are really messing with my brothers?"

Chao Muyun didn't speak.

Hou Jiuhong pursed his lips: "Okay, okay, I won't ask you for money in the future, okay!"

Chao Muyun still didn't speak.

Hou Jiuhong's eyes widened: "You don't think you want to share it! Let me just say that a few days ago, that stinky girl said that there was a lot of lack of things in the kitchen, and she said it so loudly, she must not be just complaining, so she was waiting here As for me, let me do it for you!"

Chao Muyun raised his eyebrows: "You misunderstood."

"I misunderstood you ass! You have to call my brothers over!" Hou Jiuhong slapped the table, "I will do it for you! I didn't say you are a sick bastard. If you have something to say in the future, don't always Blindly threatening people!"

Chao Muyun: ...

He originally wanted to say that Hou Jiuhong is becoming more and more handsome now. It seems that half of the unfinished business of the Shanzhai bandit den has been given up, and it is also a matter for the underlings to wander outside, but Hou Jiuhong's reaction is so big... it is still slow Come.

He looked down at the jade pendant in the box, and brought the topic back to business: "Do you think that the murderer accidentally lost this jade pendant?"

"Otherwise? Let someone pick it up, take it out and sell it. The government will find it sooner or later. It's not me or someone else. The murderer must not be exposed?" Hou Jiuhong couldn't help laughing, "You said, the murderer Don't be in a hurry right now? Let's find out who looks wrong, and whoever comes out?"

Chao Muyun was thoughtful: "But what if it wasn't lost?"

"What do you mean?" Hou Jiuhong didn't understand. "You said that this man spent so much effort to kill him just to grab this jade pendant. After he got the jade pendant, he didn't want it anymore? What is the murderer planning?"

Chao Muyun: "Since it's so important, why don't you keep it safe? If you do everything possible to find someone, even at the risk of hurting someone's life, just to take something away, you will be so careless and throw it away?"

Hou Jiuhong instigated Yahua: "I don't seem to want to... want me, I must have hidden it better than my own purse, and I keep an eye on it all the time. How could it be possible that I just got it and the garden hasn't come out yet? Just lost it?"

It seems that it is indeed a little unreasonable.

Tapping lightly on the table with her fingertips, she lowered her eyes slightly towards Muyun: "Perhaps what matters is not the thing or a certain person, but something that happens to be on a certain person."

The murderer just separates things from people. Every single item, such as Shan Yupei, or Leng Nianwen, who died alone, doesn't feel important to the murderer, and he doesn't worry about being investigated. He just worries about the two things being together.

But there are also violations. If the murderer's behavior was not to throw it accidentally, then he threw it on purpose. Why did he throw it? Why didn't he do it thoroughly and smash the jade pendant, so that no one would be able to find it, and there would be no risk?

Chao Muyun thought to himself, there is still a father and daughter who did not ask.

Thanks to Ye Wugou's help, although Tian Cun's affairs were dangerous, they turned out to be smooth. Both Zhang Xiaqing and Zhang Chuqing's father and daughter have been found. Ask them what secret is tied to this jade pendant, and they should get something.

Hou Jiuhong also had a bit of a sense of observation and observation. When he saw the sick man, he didn't speak, as if he was thinking about something, so he didn't ask, and just said what he had found: "Time is still a bit rushed, and I didn't have time to find out if there were too many things." Leng Nianwen died after someone else's banquet. The range of suspects is too large, so it's not easy to find out clearly. I stopped a man, or a woman, no one can tell..."

"I feel that this case is a bit mysterious, and I will continue to investigate it, focusing on places that are inconvenient for officials. Just wait, I will act as fast as possible."

After Hou Jiuhong finished talking about the case, he did not forget to tease Chao Muyun: "You did such a big thing last night, ordinary people don't know it, but all the brothers on the road have heard about it, you sick man knows our night gang leader, why don't you Tell me earlier!"

Chao Muyun was startled: "Our leader?"

"That's not important," Hou Jiuhong said a little aggrieved, "He is not now, and he will be in the future. You know what my brothers and I are fighting for. Since there is an opportunity, why don't you introduce it to me!"

Chao Muyun: ...

"Obviously I can reduce your salary by a few points... Next time, you should be more sensible, you know?"

Hou Jiuhong blinked at Mu Yun, straightened his waist, and pretended to cough twice: "Then what, Master Li Huai and Li, let me give you a message to tell you not to mess around, understand?"

Zhao Muyun's eyes gradually darkened: "He knows where I went and what I did."

"It's not like I said, sick child, you should also take care of yourself. The affairs of your government are not easy." Hou Jiuhong hated iron and steel, "Although the surname Li dare not harm you, but the person with his intestines Huahuazhuan is richer than you, and he can be an official."

Chao Muyun kept thinking, before he left the city that day, he had made some preparations, why the signal he handed out later couldn't wait for rescue?

In the past, he might have doubted Li Huai, but in the past few months of getting along, he knows what kind of person the other party is, and it is indeed impossible to harm him, but if there is no problem with the signal, who stopped the government's action?

Dali Temple, as the case review department, does not have many personnel. If it is in danger, it must be handed over to Wucheng Bingmasi, or the Ministry of Recruitment and other yamen for help. Go through the process. Who has so much energy to stop these cases? thing?

perhaps……

There are some undercurrents hidden in the dark night, the government knows it well, it doesn’t care, it can’t control it, or it’s not the time, there is no suitable opportunity, and rash actions will hurt itself...

Thoughts were mixed, and there was no result for a while, Xiang Muyun thought, he needs more clues, and there is no rush, all the facts will be found out one by one.

"Next, see if you can determine everyone's timeline, and then help me with other things..."

Chao Muyun called out a few names, called Hou Jiuhong to approach, and ordered a few things.

"Okay, then I'll go first, yourself... eat more, you're almost skinny like a monkey!"

Chao Muyun watched Hou Jiuhong leave, wondering how to find Zhang Xiaqing and his daughter.There were many accidents that night, the rescued women were taken away by the team of old people, and they didn't know where they were placed. There was no movement in the public, and Li Huai just reminded him not to mess around, but didn't mention anything else...

These people are probably protected and have no external contact for the time being.

And Ye Wugou, facing such a big danger alone, I don't know if he can handle it?

The bay red horses have all run away, so they should be fine, but I don’t know if they are injured, what is the situation of the Cao Gang dispute, and what changes will happen in the future...

Just as he was thinking, a figure by the window flickered, and a person jumped in, it was Ye Wugou.

Ye Wugou was still wearing the same purple robe, but in the heat of summer, the thick fabric was changed to light purple gauze, contrasting with the slightly darker purple underclothes, making it more elegant and flowing when walking, and even more romantic.

"You frown so deeply, let me guess what you're thinking..."

Today he took a plain jade fan, opened it pure white, and when he covered his lips and smiled, he lost a bit of mystery and added a bit of special temptation: "Master Xiaochao's bitterness and hatred seem to have committed a crime." Lovesickness, don't you-you miss me?"

Zhao Muyun glanced indifferently: "If you're sleepy, go to bed."

There is nothing in a dream.

Ye Wugou heard it, and didn't mind, he lifted his robe and sat opposite to Chao Muyun: "I heard that Lord Xiaochao rode into the city alone the night before, and he was very handsome."

It's a pity that the leader's screwdriver was a bit troublesome, and it took him a long time to see it.

Zhao Muyun glanced at him: "The leader Ye is not very good, is he injured?"

"... how?"

Ye Wugou secretly hid his calf, and changed the subject: "I'm here for clues related to the case, do you want Master Xiaochao?"
