Chapter 82
Yunxi bowed to Yang Zhou calmly, straightened up slowly, smiled lightly, and said, "Returning to my lord, there is one word about the whereabouts of that money, which is very important. Knowing this word, the truth will be revealed." Not far away."

"One word?"

Not only were the officials full of doubts, but the four suspects who were kneeling on the ground raised their heads unknowingly and looked straight at Yunxi, with demanding and unwilling eyes.

After all, the immediate cause of this murder was the sudden windfall!
The ultimate goal of everyone is this money!Yunxi didn't continue talking, but turned around and looked at Yunnan at the door.

He made a small gesture to her neatly:
The thumb and index finger are bent, and the remaining three fingers are spread out.

It is the OK gesture of later generations!

This is naturally also the code word she gave him.

At first, she wanted to look at the unsmiling and serious Yunnan, and compare the happy gestures of O and K to find some contrasting and cute laughs.

But Yunnan's iceberg-like aura is too strong, and every time it is done, the movements are very clean and neat, and in the flashing speed, it can even bring out a trace of graceful elegance.

This made her, who was looking for a joke, almost drop her jaw.

It wasn't until this moment that she found a belated laugh in the unique tacit understanding between the two.

She couldn't help but smile knowingly, and there was a little tenderness in her cold eyes.

Turning around again, his face was cold.

"The word is 'guess'!" Yunxi said in a deep voice, looking around at the crowd.

"Guess?" Everyone blurted out in surprise.

"Yes, it's guessing!" Yunxi raised the golden hairpin again, stood it up in front of everyone, and said almost word by word: "It's like Cao Laoba can guess the murderer based on the information about the windfall and Li Yuan's reaction." plan; based on the time when Li Huiniang, who never went back to her natal home, suddenly returned to her natal home, one can guess that the timing of their planned murder is the same. From the beginning to the end, the existence of this windfall was confirmed by everyone relying on a guess of."

Fu Shengliang's complexion suddenly darkened, and his peach-like soft eyes were filled with a faint cold light, and he looked straight at her.

Yunxi's little finger trembled unconsciously, and she had an illusion in a trance.

He has seen through her.

"Scribe Yun! Can we stop beating around the bush and talk straight! This person should be talking about the official banker, why did he go to the case again?" Xi Dailun, the soldier, slapped his thigh anxiously and urged impatiently.Yunxi looked at Xi Dailun with a smile, she didn't feel angry at all, and her train of thought was not affected at all, she continued: "There is only one reason why the word 'guess' is used, that is, except for the deceased Lu Decai, no one has ever seen it with his own eyes. That windfall!"

As she spoke, she suddenly turned sharply, turned to everyone, and said loudly: "Cao Lao Ba's guess is accurate because he has the basis. He has information that Li Yuan thought he didn't know; everyone's guess about the official bank is that Because of this gold hairpin. But there is a flaw in this gold hairpin!"

"What flaw?" Xi Dailun asked anxiously.

Yunxi's gaze turned to Li Huiniang who was at the side.

Hui Niang's face had already turned pale, and the tears all over her face had dried up. Her red lips were slightly parted, like a fish out of water for a long time, breathing dully.

Yunxi's eyes darkened, and he said slowly: "When Lu Decai picked up the bandit's baggage, it was just when he found out that Hui Niang was pregnant.

How did he tell her?
Yuemo would say: 'Huiniang!I made a fortune this time!Don't worry, as long as you are obedient and don't think about escaping or getting out, I will treat you well..."

Following Yunxi's lifelike voice, Hui Niang felt her eyes flicker, and the scene of Lu Decai returning home on that day actually appeared before her eyes.

She was sitting by the stove doing needlework, when the tightly locked wooden door was suddenly pushed open, and a familiar and rough voice came roaring through the door along with the cold wind.

"Huiniang! I'm back!"

The five-year-old Lu Decai looked excited, he turned around and fastened the wooden door, and said with a smile: "Now, it will really make your mothers live a better life!"

She lowered her head, her eyes fixed on the flying needles and threads of her fingertips.

She didn't want to look at that vicious face that would only bring her endless nightmares.

He unloaded the bow and arrow from his back, took off his luggage, rubbed his hands, and leaned forward cheekily, "Huiniang! I've made a fortune this time! Don't worry, as long as you are obedient, don't think about running away, don't worry about running away, don't worry about running away, don't worry about running away!" Thinking of going out, I will treat you well. When the child is born, I will go to the city to buy a big house and give it to you..."

"I'll hire two more old women for you, and I'll pick out delicious food, and I won't let you light a fire to cook again. You'll suffer from hardship." Yunxi's voice became softer and softer, and her eyes became softer, as if in In front of her eyes, a picture of a peaceful and peaceful couple really appeared.

Hui Niang raised her head suddenly, and looked at Yunxi in shock,

She actually knows everything?

Yunxi also lowered her gaze, looked back at her, and continued to restore the scene of that day.

"At that time, she didn't want to pay attention to him, until he took out a gold hairpin from his arms rustlingly.

He said, 'You can't even believe it!Do you know what happened to me when I went up the mountain today?I met a group of officers and soldiers arresting bandits today!That guy really killed a lot of people!I hid at the bottom of the slope and didn't dare to make a sound, but a person fell down. When I saw it, he was covered in blood!There was a big burden on his back, and I tried to grab it with my hands, but he didn't let it go, and was about to kill someone with a knife in his hand.I dared to open the bag after I fled far away, but when I saw it, I was dumbfounded, it was all money!There are many ingots, many broken ones, and many silver bills.I didn't dare to say anything, so I found a place that only I knew, and buried it.I picked up some scraps of silver, went around to the county seat, and bought this hairpin for you. '

After finishing speaking, regardless of her reaction, he clumsily put hairpins on her. "

"There is only one burden?" Xi Dailun pouted regretfully, and said in a toneless way: "There are still broken silver, it seems that there is not much official silver at all!"

"Huiniang, when you saw the gold hairpin, you already knew the truth, right?" Yunxi completely ignored Xi Dailun, and looked directly at Huiniang's pale face with complicated eyes.

A tear suddenly fell from Hui Niang's eyes, she raised her head vigorously, but she no longer showed the slightest bit of sorrow, she smiled, but the smile was extremely bitter.

"How do you know?" She stared at Yunxi, her voice trembling slightly.

Yunxi smiled, "In the carriage, the first time Yunnan asked you about the bandit's wooden sign, I noticed it."

Hui Niang frowned, and said in disbelief, "At that time?"

"If there is such a windfall, with your intelligence, you will definitely not reveal it easily.

Even if you are in jail, even if you are sentenced to death, throwing it out at a critical moment may save your life.

However, you said it easily, without any regrets or greed.Such an unpopular behavior made me suspicious at the time.Later, I saw the reaction of Cao Laoba, and it can be seen that Lu Decai must have bragged with Cao Laoba after drinking, and then compared Lu Decai's rhetoric, and roughly introduced such a chain of clues.

What would a hunter, who had been looked down upon for a long time and made a living by hunting hard, really get a windfall?Will you only buy a nobile?Will you only reveal a little bit with others after drinking?
After burying the money, shouldn't he run home immediately?
Why would you go around the county town and just buy a gold hairpin?You know, he is most afraid of her being too beautiful on weekdays, and going out to attract bees and butterflies, otherwise, he would not have locked his wife at home all year round.Besides, his wife is already pregnant!
And assuming that he really wants to buy the gold hairpin, but besides the gold hairpin, shouldn't he be crazy to buy something else when he is so rich?
And go back and think about what Li Huiniang said, she said that Lu De only promised to move to the city after giving birth.

So let me ask!Next door lived a man who had hooked up with his wife, and that man was once his brother who cared most for him. In such a disgusting and resentful situation, suddenly a huge sum of money fell from the sky, shouldn't there be an idea of ​​moving as soon as possible? "

"Why are there so many abnormalities? As the old saying goes, if there is an abnormality, there must be a demon! So I will pretend that this so-called windfall does not exist.

Although Lu Decai really met officers, soldiers and bandits, he didn't kill anyone with his own hands, it was just a lie made up to show his prestige to the woman he loves;

Falsely, he did pick up a bag, but there was only a small amount of silver in the bag, and a huge windfall was just a big talk of a man with low self-esteem to curry favor with his pregnant wife;
The promise to move after giving birth is just a beautiful vision to make the wife happy and give birth to the only bond between them.

But why did Li Huiniang see through Lu Decai's lie?

Apparently, she deliberately told Li Yuan and Jia Si about the windfall in order to arouse their greed so that she could kill Lu Decai for her.

Deliberately telling Yunnan and me about the windfall is also to convince the government that the two men did have sufficient motives to kill.

But why was Li Huiniang able to see through Lu Decai's lies?

I thought about all the steps of the matter before I thought of this nobile.

The only one who can teach Li Huiniang to see through Lu Decai's lies is this nobile! "

Yunxi raised the nobile hairpin again, and looked around at the people who were already dumbfounded.

"Do you still remember? Li Huiniang was once captured by bandits. If she knew the dead bandit and this gold hairpin while she was on the mountain, everything would be easy to explain."

As he said that, Yunxi threw out the gold hairpin with one wave of his hand.

The golden hairpin drew a dazzling arc in the air, landed with a ding, rolled over twice, and landed in front of Hui Niang.

"Huiniang, you've really run out of tricks..." Yunxi sighed softly.

Li Huiniang stretched out her slender white hand, pinched the hairpin tremblingly, stared blankly for a while, finally covered her face, and cried like a child.

Although everyone was shocked by this extremely ironic truth, they were even more shocked by Yunxi's meticulous deduction and amazing wisdom. Looking at the mournful Hui Niang, they were speechless for a while.

clap clap clap!
Suddenly someone gave a few rounds of applause.

Yunxi suppressed her complicated emotions and looked up.

It's that Yang Tuo in purple fox fur again!
He had already stood up, narrowing his long and narrow eyes lazily, "Wonderful! It's really wonderful!"

As he said that, the corners of his lips twitched suddenly, and a disdainful smile appeared, "It's just speculation and assumptions, but there is no evidence at all, so it's hard to convince people!"

Just as Yunxi was about to speak, the door was kicked open with a bang!

Then, a familiar and frivolous voice suddenly came from outside the door, covering everyone's heads.

"Who said there is no evidence? The evidence is here!"

She turned her head and saw an unusually familiar picture.

I saw the cold wind howling in from the open door,

A man was standing in the center of the cold wind, his legs that kicked the door aggressively were still hanging in the air arrogantly, with one hand holding the saber at his waist and the other on his hips, his face was slightly raised, his deep eyes squinted, and he looked around everyone contemptuously.

 I am a small footnote O(∩_∩)O haha~
  Today I mainly answer the questions from my dear friends in the comments.
  1: Reply to the question about Yang Tuo's arrogant use of ivory chopsticks in Jinjue silver bowls, not at all afraid of being found corrupt:

  The social atmosphere in the late Ming Dynasty was completely different from that of Zhu Yuanzhang's era, which was strictly hierarchical. Comparisons prevailed, all kinds of arrogance, and no official was not corrupt.

  Even Fu Shengliang and Yin Sanyu can't afford to be unprofitable.

  Although Jin Ping Mei borrowed stories from the Northern Song Dynasty, the author is Lanling Xiaoxiaosheng from the Ming Dynasty, and all kinds of human relationships and customs in it are true imitations of the late Ming Dynasty.

  Among the Jin Ping Mei, Ximen Qing is just a low-level local businessman, but he can wear boa robes at birthday parties to show his dignity, and all kinds of tableware and meals are ignored by laws and regulations.

  Therefore, as a rich and handsome Yang Tuo with a deep background, who is both the second generation of officials and the second generation of rich people, his ostentation is not exaggerated O(∩_∩)O haha~
