Chapter 017 The tree wants to be quiet but the wind doesn’t stop ()
"Miss Cuiyun, does your young master have any enemies?"
"Replying to the master, our young master is well-informed and courteous, is kind to his neighbors, behaves well, and respects himself. I have never heard that my young master has any grudges with others..."
Cuiyun girl came up instead, Zhao Tuiguan cheered up and continued to interrogate, while Feng Xihui thought secretly on the side: "Judging from the situation explained by these servants of the Yang Mansion, from the time Zhang Shisan entered the bathroom until Xia Xun Gao Gao
He called for help, but it only took him a cup of tea. Then the servants rushed to the bathroom. At this time, the room was in a mess, and clothes and bath utensils were scattered on the floor. They quickly went to get clothes for Yang Wenxuan to change into, and then put the nurse in.
All the family members of the hospital were called to guard him.
Immediately, someone called the police. Zhang and Wang, who were patrolling the streets, heard the news and rushed to inspect the scene. They then went back to the government office to report the transfer. During the whole process, Yang Wenxuan did not leave, and there was no interruption in the bathroom.
Extraordinary. After the police officers arrived, they carefully searched the bathroom and the entire backyard garden. It was impossible to hide a needle. If there was a murder weapon, it was impossible to hide it in the bathroom or throw it out of the window.
In the garden.
In this case, Xia Xun has no suspicion. It is impossible for him to kill a person in such a short period of time, put on his clothes and tidy up, jump out of the window, hide the murder weapon far away, and then return to the scene to take off his clothes and dress up again.
Fake bathing. There were a lot of people present at that time. These servants of the Yang family were all hired. They did not sign a contract of sale with the Yang family. It was impossible for everyone to cover up a murder case of the family owner, let alone
Xia Xun has just arrived at the Yang Mansion, and there is no one he can trust, and he has no courage to entrust such a life-threatening matter to anyone."
In fact, Feng Xihui never believed that Xia Xun could be the murderer from the beginning to the end. It was just out of professional instinct that he would first conduct a thorough investigation in his mind for anyone who was qualified to become a murderer. Now it is speculated whether Xia Xun is suspected or not, it is just a professional
Habit.
Xia Xun had no suspicion, and the real object of suspicion emerged in his mind: It was too difficult, the assassin was still haunting him, and he struck again. Since he failed this time, when would he come again? Who is this person...?
After thinking about it, without any clue, he shook his head and left the interrogation room.
After rushing to the mortuary, he briefly talked with the two inspectors waiting there. After the inspection was completed, he straightened up and said: "The deceased was stabbed to death between the chest and abdomen with a sharp weapon. Find the location."
It was very precise, and it pierced the liver of the deceased with just one blow, and even injured the spleen. Judging from the wounds on the deceased, they were wide on the outside and narrow on the inside. The wounds were smooth and gradually shrank. It is speculated that the murder weapon should be a vertebrae.
A type of weapon with a length of at least one and a half feet. Apart from this, there were only a few slight scratches on the body of the deceased, which should have been left during the struggle, and nothing else was found."
Feng Jianxiao looked at the white linen cloth slowly covering Zhang Shisan's wide-open eyes, and felt secretly in his heart: "What a sharp and accurate killing method. This is how Yang Wenxuan died, and this is how Zhang Shisan died."
, Yang Wenxuan is just that, his boxing and kicking skills are very limited, but Zhang Shisan's martial arts is pretty good. Although he was caught off guard and unarmed, he could be killed so easily. This assassin's skills are also quite good.
Remarkable."
After Yang Wenxuan was assassinated last time, he had conducted a secret investigation, but found nothing. Unexpectedly, as soon as "Yang Wenxuan" returned to the city, the murderer was chasing him like a gangrene on his bones. He was stroking his beard like thorns, and all kinds of doubts arose.
He thought: "After Yang Wenxuan's death, we did not disclose the death information. Isn't it weird for the murderer? The news that 'Yang Wenxuan' rushed to unload the stone shed is not a secret. If you are interested, you will definitely find out. Why did the assassin not rush to investigate?
Or another assassination? If he believed that Yang Wenxuan was dead, suspected that the government was setting a trap, or that someone Li Daitao was dead, why did 'Yang Wenxuan' just return to the city and before he had a chance to confirm these doubts, so he couldn't wait to take action again? "
No matter how alert Feng Xihui was, how could he possibly find a reasonable reason for the assassination incident that Xia Xun directed and acted in the real assassin.
In the custody room, the state judge, Dong Haotian, refilled Xia Xun's tea with a smile on his face, and listened patiently to his impassioned and incoherent accusations.
This victim is not an ordinary citizen. He has a great reputation and is a well-known gentry in Qingzhou Prefecture. This is in broad daylight, and gangsters are breaking into houses with sharp knives. Which wealthy gentleman is not worried that he will become the next victim. The public security is like this
It's terrible. This is something that will cause public outrage. Once 'Yang Wenxuan' mobilizes scholars and business friends to protest, the matter will become a big deal.
If an official wants to achieve some political achievements and wants to collect taxes and distribute grain and do corvee work, he cannot do without the support of the local gentry. If the entire gentry class is dissatisfied, no matter whether you are a shackles official or a strong leader,
They all had to get out of the country in disgrace. In local areas, unless they were in a state of war and needed to use force to implement government orders, the gentry in these places had much greater energy than the government.
Xia Xun was shocked and angry, and said resolutely: "In broad daylight, someone actually entered my mansion and openly committed murder. Fortunately, Thirteenth Lang sacrificed his life to save the savior. I also practiced some rudimentary kung fu with fists, kicks, and archery in my late life.
I was lucky enough to escape with my life. The murderer is so rampant, you must make the decision for me."
Judge Dong hurriedly said: "Young Master Yang, please relax. I will never let you go in Qingzhou Mansion for being so vicious and stubborn. I will definitely bring him to justice and give you justice. Have you had any grudges with anyone recently?"
Do you feel familiar with the murderer?"
Xia Xun shook his head and said: "No, Wansheng has no impression of the assassin and has never had any grudges with him. Wansheng was taking a bath at the time, and Zhang Ban came in to report some family matters to Wansheng. At this moment, the murderer jumped in through the window, wearing a green suit.
, with a green scarf on his face and a shiny black iron awl, Wansheng was so frightened that he could not move. Fortunately, Zhang Ban reacted quickly and immediately rushed forward to fight with the gangster.
With his bare hands, Thirteenth Lang was stabbed in the chest by a cone from the murderer. However, Thirteenth Lang fought back with a punch that seemed to have broken the murderer's ribs. The murderer grunted and stumbled to the ground. Only then did Wan Sheng react.
He came over, hurriedly jumped out of the bath, grabbed the clothes hanger and waved it to protect himself, while shouting for help. Seeing that Wansheng's family members were coming to the hospital in an instant, Xiaosheng waved the clothes hanger to keep him away, and the murderer escaped from the window and fled.
.”
"Hmm..." Lord Prefectural Judge frowned slightly and twirled his beard as he pondered in silence.
Xia Xun glanced at him, put the teacup under his nose, and sniffed the fragrance of the tea. He quickly reviewed it in his mind: witness, physical evidence, and motive for committing the crime. There were no problems in all aspects. From the secret preparation last night,
The whole process of taking Xiaodi shopping this morning to anger Zhang Shisan and induce him to come to his door was flawless, so I felt even more at ease.
A yamen servant quietly walked in and whispered a few words in the ear of Lord Prefecture Magistrate. He was obviously reporting on the trial status of Lord Tuiguan. Lord Dong nodded, waved his hand and dismissed the yamen servant, and said to Xia Xun:
"Young Master Yang, the questioning of your family members has ended. Now they are waiting at the Yamen Gate. You can go back first. If there is any progress in the case, I will inform you at any time."
"Okay, I hope the state judge will catch the murderer as soon as possible, and I'll say goodbye later."
"Hmm..." Lord Prefectural Magistrate continued: "I will naturally go all out to find the murderer. However, during this period, the young master must pay attention to safety when he comes in and out, and bring more nursing staff with him. I will also let patrol officers be in your residence.
Inspections have been stepped up nearby.”
"I understand, I'll take my leave."
Lord Prefecture Magistrate walked outside the door. He looked up and saw Feng Xihui standing under the side corridor, and said: "Feng Jianxiao, please send Mr. Yang off on my behalf."
Xia Xun and Feng Xihui walked out of the second hall side by side, walked around the lobby, and strolled past the platform. In front of them was the ceremonial gate with four beams, eight columns, five purlins and four rafters. There was no one else on the corridor in the middle. Xia Xun immediately slumped his shoulders and felt miserable.
Face begged: "Master Feng, please be merciful and let the common people go. How could the common people know that Yang Xu would be killed by bad guys just sitting at home? The common people really don't dare to accept this mission. At least they can save their lives by begging for food."
Wow, sir, have mercy..."
"Shut up!"
Feng Xihui stopped him with a stern voice, glanced around hurriedly, and shouted: "It's too late to regret it now! Don't forget, the memorandum signed by you is still in my hands. If you don't listen to my orders, I will
I can send you to the execution ground at any time. Is it possible to transform from an untouchable to a captain in my golden uniform without taking any risks?"
Xia Xun shrank his neck and did not dare to speak anymore. Feng Xihui lowered his voice and said, "You don't have to be afraid. Both the state judge and the judge attach great importance to this case and will definitely mobilize smart and capable detectives to arrest it seriously."
As for the murderer, the villain didn't succeed, and the government has been alerted, so he must be hiding and not daring to move rashly, so you won't be in any danger now."
Xia Xun said with a bitter face: "Even if there is no danger now, then... what about the future?"
Feng Xihui scolded: "Do you think all the detectives are just doing nothing? Aren't we trying to find the real culprit? After you go back, you will hire more nursing staff in the house, try not to go out, change your accommodation at night, and try to ensure your own safety.
"
Xia Xun said: "Not going out? I think about it too, but is it possible? Master Yang is hiding at home with the door closed to do business? Will he go to King Qi's birthday banquet? Will he go when his friends are being sent off...
"
"Okay, okay, don't complain. Just take more bodyguards to protect the courtyard when you go out. The assassin is smart. Judging from his methods, he always considers defeat before winning. He finds an escape route in advance before taking action. He dares to do it in front of the public.
Do it in public? If you want to do great things, achieve great success, and enjoy great wealth, how can you not take risks? If you are a beggar, even if you live for a thousand years, will you have the opportunity to enjoy this fairy-like happiness for one day? How many people?
Even after all the beheading business, you still can't earn such a good thing. Isn't it worth your while? What's there to complain about? It's so muddy that it can't be painted on the wall!"
Feng Xihui showed his face and said: "This is the right thing. You go back. Zhang Shisan is dead. If anything happens in the future, you can report it directly to me. With your assassination, I have a suitable reason to approach you with my identity." .”
"Yes! Then... the little one said goodbye."
Xia Xun walked down the steps with his robe in hand, stood still outside the door of the mansion, turned around and cupped his fists to Feng Xihui, and said loudly: "My lord, stay here, I will take my leave!"
"Sir, walk slowly." Feng Xihui stopped and also raised his hands.
When Steward Xiao, who had been waiting outside for a long time, saw the young master coming out, he quickly led Xiaodi, Cuiyun, Mrs. Liu, Daniu and other servants to drive a carriage to greet him.
"walk home!"
Xia Xun lifted the skirt of his robe and sat down in the car. He emphasized the word "family" very hard. He looked around the carriage. The servants were following him carefully. The only thing missing was Zhang Shisan. Xia Xun felt relieved. Now he finally had something. A little sense of being in charge.
When the carriage started, he glanced back subconsciously. Feng Xihui was still standing on the Danqi. When he saw him turning around, he smiled slightly at him. it's your turn……"
Xiaodi, who was excitedly sitting down in the car, had just touched the stool with her buttocks, and she couldn't wait to share her feelings with the young master and brother: "Master, this is the first time in my life that I have entered the class room, hehe, it's so fun in there. There is nothing in that class room, which is completely different from what people think. What’s annoying is that Brother Chai doesn’t allow people to talk..."
"Eh? Master, why did you close your eyes? Are you still scared? Don't worry, Xiaodi will protect the master."
Xia Xun wanted to laugh, but held it back, shook his head and said, "No."
"Is that because you are tired? You don't like Xiaodi talking? If the young master doesn't like it, then he won't talk."
Xia Xun opened his eyes, touched her head, and said with a smile: "People often say that who you were in your last life will be the opposite in this life. You, you must have been a little mute in your last life, or a young master. I made you a mute." You are mute, so God sent you here to tell the young master all the unfinished words in the previous life. Haha, you can say it, the young master likes to hear it."
Xiaodi quickly covered her mouth: "Stop talking. If you talk too much, won't you become mute again in your next life?"
"Haha, if you don't want to say it, don't say it. Then let the young master take a nap." Xia Xun laughed out loud at her amusement, leaned back on the couch, closed his eyes and took a nap.
Xiaodi: "..., cough... Young Master, people think that the court hall is like the Senluo Palace described by storytellers, with oil pans, guillotines, nail sticks, windlass... But it's nothing like those. Brother Chai and Mr. Guan are very kind. As soon as they come to the court, they laugh non-stop and don't know what's so funny. Later..."
In front of the Yang Mansion, a lame man wearing a bamboo hat on his head limped past. The bamboo hat was low on his eyebrows, and only half of his face could be seen. His cheeks were as sharp as a knife, and the stubble under his jaw was green.
The lame man leaned against the roadside and walked very slowly. He panted and stopped on the roadside. While holding on to the bamboo hat, his eyes quickly glanced towards the street. Two detectives were walking slowly with their waist knives. Walking over, when I see foreigners or powerful men, my eyes become particularly alert. Apparently because of the assassination in Yang Mansion, the government has stepped up patrols on this street, especially near Yang Mansion.
The lame man lowered his head slightly and slightly curled his lips, revealing a sinister and cold look.
He has always been confused about Yang Wenxuan's life and death. He did not believe that he would miss. He knew clearly that the knife in Yunhe Town would definitely kill Yang Wenxuan, but there was no news of Yang Wenxuan's death in Yang Mansion.
Everything in the house was calm. When the young lady learned that Yang Wenxuan was not dead, but went to the Shishipeng Village, he told the young lady with certainty that this must be a trap arranged by the Yang family or the government, and to comfort the young lady, she should calm down.
Don't fall into the trap set by the government.
But more than ten days later, Yang Wenxuan came back, alive and kicking. Not to mention dead, he didn't even look injured.
He caressed the young lady and slapped him on the cheek. It didn't hurt on his face, but it hurt in his heart. He couldn't bear that the young lady would think that he was cowardly and afraid of death. He didn't do anything at all, but lied about killing Yang Wenxuan. The young lady was the god in his heart, and he
You cannot let your God doubt your loyalty, he will prove your loyalty, he will!
Seeing Yang Wenxuan's lively appearance, even he felt in a daze that he had indeed missed the sword, but after thinking about it repeatedly, he couldn't! Could it be that Yang guy and the government found someone to pretend to be him? What's the purpose? Just to induce me to strike again.
?But there is no such coincidence. Just after Yang Wenxuan died, he immediately found someone who was exactly like him. This thing is too incredible!
The young lady said that he should calm down and find out the authenticity of this person. Before that, he should not act rashly. But he didn't think so, and the young lady slapped him! The young lady called him a coward! The young lady said that he was an incompetent waste! He suffered
He couldn't bear the look of disdain and disdain the young lady gave him.
He is not a very smart person. He can't figure out the key to Yang Wenxuan's resurrection from the dead, so he simply doesn't think about it: "Since you are alive, I will just kill you again!" How simple? What does an unintelligent person think?
It is always very direct and simple, and the direct and simple method is usually the most effective method.
But before he could take action, someone actually took action before him. This guy who appeared halfway did not kill Yang Wenxuan, the real owner, but killed one of his personal companions, thus alerting the snake and giving him no chance to take action.
Wow, what a fellow as stupid as a pig.
But it doesn't matter, he can always wait for the opportunity. He will definitely kill Yang Wenxuan with his own hands. This time, he will take Yang Wenxuan's head back and show it clearly to the lady, and prove to the lady his innocence of "two swords"!
However, he must be cautious before taking action. He is not afraid of death. As long as the lady orders him, even if he is asked to kill the emperor, he will not hesitate to break into the Jinluan Palace, but he cannot cause the slightest trouble to the lady.
It must be done neatly and neatly, leaving no trace of trouble!
The two patrolmen seemed to have noticed him and began to look at him. The lame man turned around alertly and walked to the delicatessen on the roadside. He ordered half a catty of pig head meat and two pig ears. The shopkeeper carefully sliced the pig head meat and pig ears.
The ground was sliced and shredded, poured with sesame oil, wrapped in lotus leaves, tied with hemp rope, and the lame man held it in his hand and limped away...
