Da Song Private Investigator

Chapter 887 Unknown Painting

Du Cao looked sad, and said the names of those calligraphy and paintings with a choked voice.

After hearing the names of those calligraphy and paintings, Hwarang frowned slightly, because he still knew a little about Zhou Fang's paintings, but he had never heard of Zhou Fang's calligraphy and paintings. Could it be because of this? Are a few calligraphy and paintings not famous?

Hwarang thought to himself, maybe it is.

The poems, calligraphy and paintings of ancient literati painters can be handed down and remembered, after all, they are very few. In the river of the whole time, those calligraphy and paintings are not much different from the sea. Hwarang does not remember that Zhou Fang had these paintings It is also understandable to be handed down.

Now that Du Cao had mentioned the names of those calligraphy and paintings, Li Jingan immediately sent people to look for them, and in order to force the thieves into a desperate situation, they decided to prevent the entire Chang'an city from buying those calligraphy and paintings.

Of course, the premise of doing this is that they must step up their investigation at the city gate.

After leaving the Du Mansion, Li Jingan smiled again and again and said, "Young Master Hua, it's rare to come to Chang'an, how about going to the government office for a while?"

Hwarang smiled and refused: "I still have a few friends at the inn. Let's go later. I don't know when this case will be resolved. I will have to disturb Master Li in the future!"

Hearing what Hua Lang said, Li Jing'an didn't force himself, he cupped his hands slightly, and led the people away.

But after Li Jingan left, Wen Feng asked, "Brother Hua, what shall we do next?"

"Go back to the inn and wait for news!"

After returning to the inn, Wen Meng and Hua Wan'er immediately showed disappointment and regret. They felt that they really shouldn't have listened to Hua Lang and missed such a wonderful event.

Seeing that they regretted so much, Hua Lang couldn't let them down again, so he said with a smile: "This case has not been solved yet, you still have a chance in the future!"

After hearing what Hwarang said, they became happy, and when they were happy, they surrounded Hwarang and asked if the case was easy to solve.

Hwarang thought about it carefully, then shook his head: "I'm afraid it won't be easy!"

"But according to the method you said, if you drive the thief into a corner, wouldn't you be able to catch him at the city gate?"

"Ideally, this is the case, but we are not sure whether the robber's purpose is for money. If he stole those paintings for money, it's okay to say, but if not, he hid those paintings. , we may never find it!"

Several people looked at each other, they felt that what Hwarang said made sense, so at this moment, Wen Meng asked quickly: "Then what are you going to do next?"

"We can only wait for the news first!"

Waiting for news is a very confusing thing. One day later, Hua Lang took someone to the government office to inquire about the situation. Li Jingan looked anxious and said: "The government officials have searched everywhere, but there is no news. This Chang'an city is huge. It may take time to eliminate one by one.”

Hwarang naturally understood this truth. Chang'an City was the capital of the Tang Dynasty, where prosperity and complexity coexisted. It was not easy to find a few paintings.

So Hwarang and the others had no choice but to continue to wait.

But they didn't have to wait long before they got new news, but this news had nothing to do with those paintings.

On the second day after looking for Li Jingan, a yamen servant went to the inn to report the news to Hwarang, saying that Cui Jian was found dead at home.

This news was too shocking, because everyone did not expect that someone would actually kill Cui Jian.

After hearing the news, Hwarang didn't hesitate any longer, and immediately asked the yamen servant to lead them to Cui Jian's residence.

This morning, the weather was cool and there were many pedestrians on the street. Hua Lang and others followed the yamen servant and hurried to Cui Jian's house. Cui Jian's family is really rich.

As soon as he entered Cui Jian's house, he heard bursts of crying. Hua Lang followed the crying and found several women kneeling on the ground crying, while Li Jing'an comforted them from time to time, comforting their hearts. At that time, Li Jingan was very anxious, walking up and down in the courtyard, when he saw Hua Lang, he rushed up to greet him, and said, "Young Master Hua, you are finally here, this matter... this matter is probably not good It's done!"

There was a homicide case, so it was naturally difficult to handle, but Hua Lang was not as anxious as Li Jingan, he gave Li Jingan a small hand, and then said: "Master Li, don't worry, what is going on?"

Li Jingan sighed, and said: "This morning, someone went to the government office to report that Cui Jian had been killed. I knew it was wrong when I heard it. I immediately sent someone to look for you, but the official came here in a hurry. The officer has already asked several people in the mansion, and they said that it was Cui Jian's second wife who found Cui Jian's body. died at the bedside."

As Li Jingan said, he pointed to a woman. The woman was about 30 years old, with a plump figure and a very charming appearance, but she was crying sobbingly at this moment, as if the whole sky was about to collapse.

Hwarang knew that this woman was Cui Jian's second wife, so he comforted him: "Madam, please give me condolences. The most important thing now is to find the murderer so that Cui Jian can rest in peace. I have a few questions for my wife, please answer them." .”

The second lady seemed to be quite cultivated. After listening to Hwarang's words, she nodded slightly.

"I wonder how many wives Cui Jian has?" After Hwarang saw the second lady nodding, he asked such a question, and when he asked this question, everyone was shocked.

Although everyone was surprised, they didn't say anything else. Wen Meng and the others didn't ask because they knew Hwarang well, while Li Jingan didn't dare to ask because they didn't know much about Hwarang. The second lady seemed a little embarrassed about this question , but finally replied: "Two!"

"Then who accompanied Cui Jian last night?"

"No one is with me. The master is obsessed with calligraphy and painting. Every night after being tender with us and my sister, he immediately lets us leave, while he sleeps with his calligraphy and painting in his arms."

When everyone heard this, they were so surprised that they could hardly speak. There were two beautiful ladies who refused to accompany them, and even slept with their calligraphy and paintings in their arms. This Cui Jian was really out of his mind.

"Then did you find anything unusual about Cui Jian last night?"

The second lady shook her head: "It's not abnormal there, it's just that the master seems to be very preoccupied these two days, sometimes he stays in the house and doesn't come out, but I don't know the specifics."

"Then has anyone visited your master in the past few days?"

"No, since the last time the master was framed by Du Cao, I haven't seen outsiders again. Not only will the master not go out, he will not let friends visit!"
