Chapter 330: Important Person (Second Update)
Song Gujin frowned and said:
"If Hao Kui and Zou were both fake, they would have had to hide it airtight at the beginning. Kyoto There should be many people who know Hao Kui. Zou may be able to fake it. Hao Kui wants to use It would be difficult to replace others. If anyone recognizes them, their flaws will be exposed. And what do they want with such a big battle?"
"It is written in the case file that Zou took advantage of Hao Kui's absence in Kyoto? When he was young, he came to the door and killed Ying Niang with a stick in anger and buried her body. In the backyard, the yamen of Houfu came to the door with the Liu family. Seeing that they could no longer hide it, Zou revealed the place where the body was buried. The yamen dug out the body, only to find that the body had turned into an old man. Everyone was frightened and screamed again and again. , the Yamen officials took the Zou family and others back to the Yamen, and after being tortured, Everyone's confession was consistent, so the maid and the wife were released, and the others continued to be imprisoned. A few days later, Hao Kui quietly returned to Kyoto to intercede for his wife, but was captured on the spot by Yang Fuyin. "
Wu Chen said this. After a pause, he looked at everyone and asked:
"Who in the government office or the Liu family has seen Zou's servants burying the body? No one has seen it, but the case file says that the corpse turned into an old man, and was tortured. The confessions are consistent. What's the point? It's just to emphasize the Zou family. The person they buried was Ying Niang. As a result, the Liu family and the government officials spread the news that Beijing Doesn't anyone know that this is a weird case? There are rumors about the man-eating ghost! Besides, it might make sense for Hao Kui to come back to Beijing to intercede, as the husband and wife share weal and woe, but they are imprisoned and have no children. Does it still make sense that one person is here to visit? On what charges can he be imprisoned? Is there an end? Hao Kui should not know what Zou did. Even if he is guilty, it is the crime of remarrying a wife. He can go home after being exiled for a year, but Hao Kui has been in prison for several years, and their children have grown up. If you can’t figure it out, why don’t you come to Kyoto and ask?”
Song Gu said: "Once it is determined that the old man in the backyard is Yingniang's transformation, the case will never be investigated."
"In the following years, the Liu family members died one by one, and no one remembered that there was anyone in the cell. Hao Kui and his wife just feel that this is Ying Niang's death." Shang Gong added.
Wu Chen said: "Yesterday I went to the palace and asked the officials. Back then, the officials ordered Chen Zhong to help investigate the case. Chen Zhong helped cover it up. No one knows what happened to this case!"
How many days did it happen? Everyone was shocked, and the second grade student hurriedly asked: "You mean this case is related to Prince Cheng's rebellion?"
Wu Chen waved his hand and said, "How could Chen Zhong only do that one thing where he lost his head?"
"What was that?" Xu Da asked.
Wu Chen shrugged and said, "I don't know yet, but I just inferred that Chen Zhong must have done something to rely on the trust of the officials, so the children of Hao Kui and Zou did not come to Kyoto. Not taken hostage Suspicious, Yang Fuyin never went to court to investigate the case and no one urged him to do it.”
“But the day they dug up the body was the day Chen Zhong was sentenced. Who could guess that the officials would re-investigate the case. It must not be Chen Zhong," Song Gu said.
Wu Chen nodded:
"In addition to Chen Zhong, there are other people involved. Only in this way can it be commensurate with such a large layout. Otherwise, how could the Liu family and the fake Zou family perform such a play in front of the government officials? Are they performing it for The government officials see it. Some rumors from the government officials are more useful than others. "
Shang Gong said:
" Deputy Ambassador Wu once said that if their purpose could be known, the case would be easier to investigate, but the more others are involved, especially The more difficult it is for us to investigate the people in the palace, what’s the next step?”
Wu Chen lowered his head and thought for a moment, and said:
"If the Liu family and the Hao family are both related to the government, why can the Hao family be safe? I mean, it seems that Chen Zhong has protected Hao The children of the family, this still means that it is the real Hao Kui and his wife who are in prison, but the Liu family is The family was wiped out? Does this mean that the Liu family was behind the plan? But why did they use this method to wipe out the family? Since even the governor of Kyoto was one of their own and Chen Zhong was helping them cover up, there was no way to destroy the family. Unsolved cases are not impossible..."
"If this is the case, Yang Kun may not be able to keep his official position." Shang Gong said.
As soon as Shang Gong finished speaking, Gu Shiming opened the door and came in.
"I went to the government office first in the morning and told you that you would come in the afternoon. I hurriedly hurriedly arrived a little later than you. Where were you?"
Gu Shiming found a seat. He sat down and asked energetically.
Wu Chen smiled and said:
"When it comes to the direct annihilation of the Liu family, Yang Fuyin should be able to handle it, but Shang Fuyin said that if the annihilation happened directly, Yang Fuyin's official position would not be guaranteed. I was about to ask, Why can Yang Fuyin keep his official position by destroying his family in such a way?"
"I can explain this." Gu Shiming opened the folding fan, shook it and said:
"This case would not be considered a major case if there were no ghosts involved. As long as the Liu family is taken care of, they will not If we investigate further, there will be no perpetrator in this case, and there will be no How big a turmoil will arise? Hao Kui may not even have to face trouble if he has a wife. He can just spend more money to appease the Liu family. The Zou family will not even be imprisoned. At most, they can introduce a servant to take the blame. "
Gu Shiming may feel a little cold while shaking his fan. , he put away his fan and said:
"But if the entire Liu family died on the same day, and it was determined that they were murdered, then the case would be serious. Such a thing would happen at the feet of the emperor." , it’s not surprising that Yang Kun can still retain his official position.”
Wu Chen raised his eyebrows and said:
"Looking at it this way, it seems that the situation was set up for Yang Kun, but I don't think so. If it weren't for Chen Zhong's involvement, maybe it would still be possible. Who is Chen Zhong? He won't think about anyone! The man behind the scenes is Lian Chen Zhong. They can all be used. It is not difficult to use Yang Kun. Maybe Yang Kun has the leverage in the hands of the people behind the scenes. He can only obey orders. Even if he loses his official position for a while, dormant for a few years, he can be promoted again. There is no need to do it. Yang Kun...or not just for Yang Kun, Yang Kun Being the governor of Kyoto is still useful to Chen Zhong and the people behind the scenes."
The second grade student asked: "Let's talk about it, what is the next step?"
Wu. Chen Chen looked at Gu Shiming. Gu Shiming hurriedly said: "Yesterday I passed the news Over there in Xinkangshui County, you also know that after Chen Zhong surrendered, the Detective Department is also being reorganized, and some people are afraid to use it..."
"You can transfer Gu You to me. He will follow Chen Zhong. I have been loyal for a long time, and I can ask him anything at any time.”
"That won't work. He is in prison now, and I have to interrogate him today..."
"Just a trial! In this way, you don't use torture, but you can ask what you need to ask, so that you can do your job easily." But based on my understanding of Gu You and Chen Zhong, Chen Zhong will not tell why when he assigns errands, and Gu You will not ask, so unless you ask about a specific thing, He might be able to ask something, otherwise he can't say anything, so he might as well leave it beside me."
Gu Shiming waved his hand, frowned and was about to refuse, when Wu Chen glared and said, "I. You are the deputy envoy of the Detective Department, you are just doing business, just follow orders, there is so much nonsense!" (End of Chapter)
