Chapter 479 Murder for money.

When asked by Bao Zheng, the young man touched the back door of his head and thought for a while, then suddenly said in a dazed way: "Oh, I remembered, I went to the wine cellar to pour a pot of wine, but when I walked to the corridor , I was suddenly anxious, so I went to the toilet, and the wine jug was placed in the corridor, but it was very late at that time, no one should have passed by!"

After listening to the young man's words, Bao Zheng and Hua Lang understood that other people might not come to the corridor so late, but if it was a murderer with the intention of killing, then maybe, so it is very possible that the flagon was in that place. Time to be poisoned by the murderer.

I can't blame the boy, Bao Zheng let the boy go down with a wave of his hand.

At this time, brothers Liang Dou and Liang Tian were still very angry, because all three of their friends died in the Dong Mansion, so there must be a murderer in the Dong Mansion, most likely Dong Cheng.

Hwarang remained silent, resting his chin in thought. He didn't understand why the murderer wanted to kill three people who had absolutely nothing to do with Dong's Mansion and Duanzhou City. He couldn't think of the murderer's motive for the murder. This is the first time this juggling team came In Duanzhou City, it is impossible to make enemies with others. If the murderer is not Liang Douyi or Liang Tian, ​​then it must be someone from the Dong Mansion or Duanzhou City, but why kill someone he doesn't know?

Hua Lang looked at Liang Dou and Liang Tian brothers and asked, "Did you have any grudges with anyone on the way to Duanzhou?"

Although Liang Tian was angry, he still replied honestly: "No, we are entertainers, we rarely cause trouble, and when we encounter trouble, we can bear it as long as we can, and we don't dare to make grudges with others."

"Then among you, is there anyone whose hometown is Duanzhou?"

Liang Dou and Liang Tian thought for a while, then shook their heads and said, "We don't know about this, we rarely inquire about your affairs."

It would be unreasonable for the five performers not to inquire about each other. Hwarang thought for a while and then asked, "Can you take out all your luggage for us to check?"

Liang Dou and Liang Tian were somewhat hesitant, but they still nodded in agreement, and not long after, the open space in the backyard was filled with the things that the government servants found from the room of the deceased and Liang Dou and Liang Tian.

Some of these things have been seen by Hwarang, such as ropes, pots, poles, and of course some clothes worn during performances. Other than that, the rest are things that everyone buys according to their own preferences. Some were broken daggers, some were flutes, and when Hwarang checked the belongings of Liang Dou and his brothers, they became visibly nervous.

But it was useless for them to be nervous, Hwarang still checked, when he opened the boxes one by one, and took out the gadgets and clothes inside one by one, he found a bundle at the bottom of the box. It was quite heavy, and it was wrapped in several layers. Hwarang opened it layer by layer. When the last layer was opened, everyone was in an uproar, because there was an ingot of silver in the bag, and there were several pieces of ten taels. There was also a lot of silver, and Hwarang weighed it in his hand, and it was about seven or eighty taels of silver.

When Liang Dou and Liang Tian saw that Hua Lang had found the silver, they were so frightened that cold sweat broke out on their faces. Wen dreamed of the silver and became even more angry. This money is why you killed your partner, so all the money is enough for you to enjoy it for a few years, right?"

Liang Dou came down suddenly and said: "My lord, please forgive me, this... this money is indeed greedy for us two brothers, but...but we didn't kill anyone!"

Now that he saw Yin Zi, how could Bao Zheng believe Liang Dou's words, so he shouted angrily, "Come here, take them back to the state government office and torture them to see if they tell the truth."

Now that the two of them are suspicious, it's okay to take them back for interrogation, so Hwarang doesn't stop them.

When a group of people came to the state government office, Bao Zheng immediately ascended to the hall, Hua Lang and the others stood in the hall, and Dong Yuanwai, Dong Cheng also stood aside, after all, if necessary, he had to ask him a few questions.

Liang Dou Liangtian knelt on the lobby, trembling all over his body. Hua Lang thought this was very strange. If the two of them really killed the person, they should be very courageous. Now they are going to court , why are you afraid of becoming like this?

Bao Zheng patted the gavel, and shouted loudly: "Liang Dou Liangtian, quickly explain the matter of the two of you murdering for money, or don't blame me for being merciless."

Liang Dou and Liang Tian were frightened, they kowtowed repeatedly, shouting that they were wronged, and then Liang Tiancai said, "My lord, I'm wronged, my two brothers were just greedy for money, and didn't kill anyone."

Bao Zheng was not a fool, he said angrily, "Tell me the truth about how you got the money."

Liang Tian contemplated for a moment, and then said: "My lord, the thing is like this, the five of us traveled the rivers and lakes to perform for a living, and also accumulated a lot of forks, and each of us can get 20 taels of silver in our hands. After each performance, we will divide it up. After we found out that our partner was killed that morning, we thought that the person is dead, so why not find out the money and divide it equally?"

"So you split it equally?" Bao Zheng shouted angrily.

Liang Tian nodded and said: "Exactly, when the first partner was killed, the remaining four of us were each given about five taels of silver. When Wu Gu was killed, although it was Lin Qing who discovered the body first, But he still let my brothers get ten taels of silver, and after Lin Qing died, we two brothers found his dozens of taels of silver. After we hid the silver, we found Dong Yuanwai .”

After Liang Tian finished speaking, Liang Dou quickly followed suit, and said: "The money was hard earned by the few of us. They died, and we deserve the money, so we just kept it. We really don't have any money." Kill people, and with our body, we can't learn Wu Gu's collarbone technique at all, how can we create a secret room?"

What Liang Tian and Liang Dou brothers said was reasonable, but the two of them couldn't get rid of the suspicion at this time. After all, they haven't figured out how the secret room was formed, so it can't be said that the two brothers couldn't create the secret room, and Bao Zheng didn't ask any more questions. , so they put the two brothers in the state prison, and everything will be decided after the truth of the matter is found out.

At this time, Dong Yuanwai felt that there was nothing to do, so he wanted to leave, but Hua Lang suddenly stopped him and asked, "Dong Yuanwai must have spent a lot of money when he invited them?"

Director Dong nodded again and again: "Yes, since I saw their performance in Qingliyuan, many people rushed to invite them to perform, and I paid 40 taels of silver to invite them. Alas, how could such a thing happen? ah!"
