The bear child of the Red Chamber, Jia Cong

But when Li Wen and Wang Yuzuo returned to the back of the county office, Li Wen personally sifted a bowl of water for him, and asked attentively, "What do you see?"

Wang Wuzuo raised his eyebrows and glanced at him, "I don't know if Mr. Li is willing to make decisions for the deceased."

Li Wen patted his chest and said righteously: "As an official of one parent, it is natural to be the master of the people."

Wang Yu said: "Mr. Pan is suffocating to death. Judging from the strangle marks on his hands and feet, even though he was bound, he still struggled hard before he died. It can be seen that the person who did it was very weak. It's a woman."

Li Wen opened his mouth wide in shock, and said after a long time: "The sixth aunt said—the culprits are two burly men."

Wang Yu said: "There are fingerprints on the sixth aunt's neck, which were strangled to death by a man and hung on the beam."

In Li Wen's heart, he didn't want the case to become more complicated, so he hurriedly said, "I saw it too. Just now, those members of the Pan family were talking nonsense about the sixth aunt Zhenlie and that she wanted to be buried. Being favored, now that Mr. Pan is dead, Mrs. Pan ordered someone to strangle her to retaliate against her usual grievances, and it is unknown."

Wang Yu didn't answer, and said again: "According to common sense, the person who smothered Master Pan to death is most likely the Sixth Aunt."

Li Wen was taken aback again, and said after a long while: "So what Liu Yiniang said can't be counted? If it's not complete, it's a lie."

But at this moment, Gong Kun heard that Wu Zuo was coming, and immediately called Jia Cong out from the room, and the two of them came to look for Li Wen together.Li Wen was overjoyed to see them, hurriedly greeted them at the door, and introduced them to each other.

How many nerds in later generations are not curious about the profession of forensic medicine?Therefore, when Jia Cong heard Li Wen say that this is Wuzuo, his eyes lit up, and he looked at Wang Wuzuo and bowed: "Mr. Wang has worked hard."

Wang Yuzuo was startled, and immediately stood up and waved his hands again and again: "How dare you?"

Jia Cong blinked and asked, "Mr. Wang, how about the case?"

Wang Yuzuo looked at Li Wen, and Li Wen said what the two of them had just said.Jia Cong and Gong Kun were secretly surprised when they heard that Liu Yiniang had died.

How can the imagination of others compare to that of Jia Cong?Then he frowned, put his fat arms behind his back, and pretended to turn around the room a few times, saying: "I saw yesterday that although the three sons of the Pan family were crying, they didn't look sad. I died That's what it looks like! So I guess, what Mr. Li said is quite reasonable. Mrs. Pan has been out of favor for many years, and her three sons have taken care of their mother, so they have lost their relationship with Mr. Pan. Also, since the sixth aunt is favored, why bother? To suffocate Mr. Pan? Could it be like this. One of the two thieves is the insider of the Pan family, and even though his face was covered, Mr. Pan and Aunt Six recognized him." He clapped his hands again, "That's right, if they broke into Pan's house at night to kill Mr. Pan, why would they need to cover their faces? Dead people can't report them to the government. Maybe the thief didn't intend to kill people, but just to ask for some information. Mr. Pan recognized him, After they left, she chanted to herself, but by chance Liu Yiniang heard this person. This person may have an affair with Liu Yiniang, or has a relationship. In order to protect her lover or relatives, Liu Yiniang suffocated Mr. Pan to death, and then managed to tie herself up and pretend to be unconscious It's a pity that her lover and relatives are ruthlessly tight, I'm afraid Liu Yiniang will leak the secret and strangle her to silence."

Li Wen also clapped his hands together: "The person who has an affair with Liu Yiniang is probably one of the three masters of the Pan family. Looking at the current situation, the masters of the Pan family want Liu Yiniang to die." Nai sighed, "Just I'm afraid that goatee and whiskers are all her talking nonsense."

Jia Cong nodded and said, "She wants to protect the thieves, otherwise she will talk nonsense."

Gong Kun hurriedly added fuel and jealousy: "One is to silence the rumor, the other is to cover up the relationship between the father and the concubine, and the third is to vent anger for Mrs. Pan."

Jia Cong thought for a while: "What do they want to ask Mr. Pan?"

If it was an ordinary case, the county magistrate probably guessed it was for the 400 taels of silver.However, at this moment, Li Wen locked all the money into the county government warehouse, and even took some sundries to cover it up, and only waited three months later, pretending to be sent by Gao Li, to distribute it to the villagers.So he put the money straight away.That can only be for the letter next to him.He originally believed that the Pan family's case was about a dispute within the Hou's mansion or the palace, but now he became more and more suspicious that Mr. Pan knew something secret.

Jia Cong added: "I don't know whether it was one thief or two or more who came that night. It's a pity that Liu Yiniang died."

Gong Kun immediately took the role: "Two of them. She said she had a mask, a goatee and a beard, and the three masters all had short beards. She was young, and she couldn't figure it out even if she thought about it for nothing. I'm afraid If it's too outrageous, it will be exposed."

Li Wen also said: "I've asked her twice, and I can see that her words are quite appropriate. Even if she lied, it doesn't seem like a big lie. I'm afraid it was two."

Jia Cong took the opportunity to say: "The other of these two is the other master of their family, or someone from outside?"

After thinking for a long time, everyone couldn't figure it out.Gong Kun said: "Also, I don't know where the missing 100 taels of silver are."

Jia Cong said: "If the silver is gone, I'm afraid it was taken away by outsiders. If it's in someone's house..."

Li Wenli stood up and said, "I'll send people to search the Pan family!" If the Pan family is an insider, they can take advantage of their weaknesses, and everything will be easy in the future;

When he went outside to call the yamen servant, he saw the county leader Sun Ban led a few people in hastily, shouting: "My lord! I have the money!"

Li Wen's legs trembled, thinking that the money was in the county government's treasury!Quickly asked: "What money?"

Bantou Sun held a small bundle in his hand and said: "Today, I led people to search around Pan's house to find out if there is any suspicious person. In the empty house of Lao Zhao who used to sell cooking cakes, I saw that the kang seemed to be moved by someone. After that, I went to check and saw a pile of silver hidden under the broken mat that they didn’t take away, I took it and weighed it, it was exactly 120 forty taels.”

Li Wen gasped.Angu County is poor, more than 100 taels of silver is really a lot, and it was thrown into an empty house!If those two thieves belonged to the Pan family, they could just hide them in the chest at their house, why put them outside?No need to ask, the other is someone from outside.

Bantou Sun's voice was very loud, and Wang Yuzuo Jia Cong and Gong Kun had already been alarmed at this moment, and they all ran outside, so they all heard Bantou Sun's words just now.The three of them looked at each other a few times, and there was a clear meaning in their eyes.

Li Wen was stunned for a moment, and said with a wry smile, "Since we have found the silver, there is no need to go to Pan's house." Returning back in frustration, he sighed, "I'm afraid the water is deep."

Wang Wuzuo asked, "Why do you sigh so much, my lord?"

Li Wen shook his head and said, "It's not true if you check it, and it's not true if you don't check it."

Gong Kun thought for a moment, and said: "Sixth aunt killed Mr. Pan, I don't know which young master of the Pan family will avenge his father, but it makes sense."

Wang Yuzuo glanced at him, and said solemnly to Li Wen: "Could it be that Mr. Li also wants to calm things down?"

Li Wen said sadly: "I'm just an ordinary county magistrate. Mr. Wang, you also know that since Mr. Pan's niece married into Beijing, I have been angry with the Pan family. The government is still noble Xie, there is nothing I can mess with."

Wang Yuzuo's eyes flashed.

Gong Kun persuaded: "Dingcheng Hou's mansion is fine, Xie Guiren heard that he has recently been favored."

Li Wen became more and more afraid, looked at Wang Yu hesitantly and said, "If there is really something secret in it, I'm afraid you and I won't be able to bear it."

Wang Yuzuo raised his eyebrows, sneered, and turned his head into the room to pack his tools.Jia Cong hurriedly followed in, watching with hesitation.Wang Yuzuo raised his eyes and looked at him without saying a word.Jia Cong said: "There are nine out of ten unsatisfactory things in the world. I hope you don't worry about it, Mr. Li is not easy."

Wang Yuzuo said indifferently: "Guess according to Young Master Gao, what is it about?"

Jia Cong's words were originally made up to cover up for Wu You, guess what!He said casually, "How would I know that Bao Buqi has a relationship with the Daming Wanli blue-and-white dinosaur?"

Wang Yuzuo was taken aback: "What?"

Jia Cong waved his hand and said, "It's nothing, it's irrelevant. Mr. Wang is going back?"

Wang Yuzuo glanced at him, and said: "Since Mr. Li doesn't dare to delve into it, it will be inconvenient for him to stay here. It's better to leave earlier."

Jia Cong said, "You haven't eaten lunch yet."

Wang Yu said: "Go outside and be as big as you want."

Seeing that he really wanted to leave, Jia Cong bowed to him again.Wang Yuzuo took the burden and left, and Li Wen followed behind with a flattering smile and sent him out of the gate of the county government.

After everyone finished their lunch, Li Wen ordered someone to go to Pan's house to let them see Yinzi.Not long after, Third Master Pan led the tent and hurried over to take a look, and said repeatedly: "It's the money! I even remember the appearance. Where did you find it? Did you take the thief?"

Li Wen hurriedly pointed to Bantou Sun and said, "He found it." Bantou Sun told the story once, and then led Sanye Pan to the empty house.Mr. Pan didn't say a word, and he was sure that the thief didn't come for money, and he didn't bother to go to the county government to explain to Li Wen. He hurried home and told his brother and mother. The three of them looked at each other again, guessing wildly. After a while.

In the afternoon, Jia Cong went to the inn and quietly told Wu You about it. Wu You was shocked: "Then the sixth aunt is dead?"

Jia Cong nodded: "I guess, Mrs. Pan resented her for being favored all the time, and Mr. Pan took revenge on her as soon as he died, just like Mrs. Qi was killed when Liu Bang died and Empress Lu died."

Wu You gritted his teeth: "I have spent half a day working hard, just not to hurt innocent people!"

Jia Cong said: "You treat her as a person, but in the eyes of others, she is not."

Wu Younai closed her eyes and clenched her fists. After half a day, she suddenly stared like a copper bell: "I'll kill that old godmother!"

Jia Cong quickly waved his hands: "Don't be impulsive! You can't touch their family members at this moment, or you will have to mess up."

Wu You roared: "I dragged that person to death!"

Jia Congqi said: "What are you thinking! It's not like you haven't killed someone before. Don't be a saint, let me tell you, otherwise you won't be able to act in the future."

Wu You glared at him and said, "It's different! What I want to kill is not the same as what I want to drag to death!"

Jia Cong glanced at him for a long time, then waved his hands and said, "Forget it, you just blame yourself for not being rigorous and making many mistakes, so that the outcome of things is completely different from what you first wanted. Don't be so entangled, let go. Not everything in the world can be designed as planned. Besides, Wu Zuo's words are also in line with the situation that day, she killed Mr. Pan, and it is a repayment."

Wu You was dejected: "If I want to be more thorough, she doesn't have to kill that old man. It was also forced by me." Nai shook his head again and again. "Later, I thought of six or seven very appropriate methods, but I didn't think of them at the time."

Jia Cong patted him on the shoulder: "Young man, don't be too horny, God has his own arrangements if you don't make sure."

It was late, and two letters were quietly sent to Beijing in the dark.

One was written by the second master of the Pan family, saying that because his father knew the secrets of the palace, someone silenced him. Stuffy fat man, one with goatee, normal voice and normal build.

The second is written by Wang Wuzuo.Old Master Pan found out about the secrets of Dingcheng Hou's Mansion or Xie Guiren, so he asked one of his sons to co-operate with outsiders to interrogate them.Li Wen, the magistrate of Angu County, seemed to know a little about the situation but did not dare to go into it. The nephew of the Jiedu Envoy of Ping'an Prefecture, Young Master Gao, knew more. It was probably related to an antique blue and white porcelain from the Wanli period of the Ming Dynasty. The antique was called "Dinosaur".

Rumors are like the wind, starting at the end of Qingping, and making waves.
