Detective Di Renjie's legend of Wu Dynasty

Chapter 439 Night Pearl?
Zhang Yi shook his head: "There is nothing else. Oh, by the way, she seems to have taken away some jewelry and the like. I heard that there is also Master Hou's favorite night pearl in it!"

Wang Mang nodded slightly.

A trace of doubt flashed in Di Renjie's eyes: "Jing Yang, what's the matter?"

Wang Mang said: "It's nothing, I just want to confirm what Jinniang took away."

Di Renjie nodded slightly, he and Li Yuanfang looked at each other, and said, "What is the relationship between Xue Qinglin, Feng Wanchun, Zhang Xiangong and others?"

Zhang Yi said: "Master Hou kept this matter secret and never brought it up. If Feng Wanchun and the others hadn't come to Wuping this time, we wouldn't have known that Lord Hou still had these four friends."

Di Renjie said, "Is it Xue Qinglin who killed Huang Wenyue, Ge Bin, Zhang Xiangong and Wu Shun?"

Zhang Yi looked at him, sighed and said: "Anyway, Lord Hou is dead, so let me tell the truth. Yes, it is him."

Di Renjie took a breath and asked, "How did he do it?"

Wang Mang glanced at Zhang Yi, frowned, and said nothing.

Zhang Yi said: "My lord, if the little one tells the truth, can the little one be saved from death?"

Di Renjie nodded: "As long as you tell the truth, I can guarantee this."

Zhang Yi gritted his teeth: "Then I will tell the truth. The four murders of Huang Wenyue, Ge Bin, Zhang Xiangong and Wu Shun were all committed by our Lord Hou himself, and the villain has been assisting him all the time."

"Oh?"

Di Renjie, Wang Mang, and Li Yuanfang looked at each other, and the three of them were stunned.

Zhang Yi nodded: "Exactly. I remember that when Huang Wenyue was killed..."

Taking advantage of the darkness, a man in a black cloak slowly walked into the Jiangzhou Posthouse, and the Guan Cheng rushed to greet him: "Sir, who are you looking for?"

The black cloak said: "I would like to see Mr. Huang Wenyue, the former magistrate of Wuping County."

Guan Cheng said: "Please come with me."

The two walked into the courtyard.

A black shadow flashed, and Xue Qinglin sneaked in quickly wearing the same black cloak. He looked around, put the hood on his head, and ran towards the backyard with an iron awl in his hand.

Guan Cheng knocked on the door, and with a "squeak", Huang Wenyue showed his head: "Is there something wrong?"

Guan Cheng said: "Master Huang, someone is looking for you."

After speaking, he turned and went back to the front yard.

Huang Wenyue looked at the black cloak: "Who are you?"

The black cloak reached out to take off the hood, it was Zhang Yi, Huang Wenyue was taken aback: "Zhang Yi, it's you, why are you dressed so strangely?"

Zhang Yi handed over the letter in his hand: "Master Hou asked me to deliver this letter to you."

Huang Wenyue took the letter.

Zhang Yi cupped his hands and said, "The little one will leave now."

With that said, he put on his hood and walked away quickly.

Huang Wen looked at his back more puzzled.

Zhang Yi said: "After the villain left, Lord Hou killed Huang Wenyue."

Wang Mang glanced at Zhang Yi and said: "So, the other black cloak who lured away the waiter in the Pingyang inn and let the assassin infiltrate the inn, and on the night boat back to Jiangzhou, pretended to be a fisherman, lured Zhang, You are the one who boards the boat."

Zhang Yi was shocked: "My lord, how do you know this?"

Wang Mang waved his hand: "This is not important anymore. Let me ask you, why did Xue Qinglin kill these five worship brothers?"

Zhang Yi said: "The villain only knows that the six of them did something together ten years ago. Our Lord Hou was always worried that the other five would reveal his secret, so we wanted to kill him. But the specifics are What's the matter, the little one doesn't know."

Di Renjie took a deep breath, and exchanged glances with Wang Mang and Li Yuanfang.

The three turned and walked out of the side room.

After a while, Di Renjie sighed and said, "Yuan Fang, it seems that you are right this time, the mysterious assassin black cloak is indeed Xue Qinglin."

Li Yuanfang nodded: "My lord, we also made a shoe print on the bow of the boat where Zhang Xiangong and Wu Shun died, and asked Di Chun to compare it with him as evidence."

Di Renjie shook his head and said, "No need, Zhang Yizhi's words should be right.

What he said tonight is very valuable.

First of all, we can confirm that the unresolved murderer in Jiangzhou and Wuping, the black cloak, is Xue Qinglin.

Secondly, we have confirmed that the important thing that Xiaoyun and Jinniang are looking for together is a secret letter.

Third, we know that Jinniang has stolen the secret letter. "

Wang Mang frowned and said nothing. Suddenly, he raised his head and opened his mouth, but he swallowed the words.

Di Renjie looked at Wang Mang: "Jing Yang, do you have anything to say?"

Wang Mang shook his head: "It's nothing, I just thought of something else."

Di Renjie took a deep look at Wang Mang: "Okay, tell me when you want to talk."

Wang Mang nodded.

At this time, Li Yuanfang said: "According to what my lord said the day before yesterday, there are multiple forces hidden in Wuping City. Xiaoyun and his gang must be one of them, and Jinniang represents another force."

Di Renjie nodded slowly: "Although the force she represents is not as powerful as Xiaoyun's group, these people act meticulously and without revealing any flaws. So far, except for Jinniang, they have not revealed any flaws. .So, these people should not be underestimated!"

Wang Mang said: "My lord, now, the two forces we have discovered point to this secret letter at the same time, which shows the role of this thing in this case!"

Di Renjie smiled and said: "You are very correct. This secret letter should be the real core of this case. We must find it."

Wang Mang said: "My lord, according to what Zhang Yi said just now, that secret letter should be in Jinniang's hands."

Di Renjie shook his head: "Judging from Jinniang's performance recently, I'm afraid this letter is not on her."

Wang Mang was taken aback: "Oh, how did you see that?"

Di Renjie said: "Think about it, if the letter is really on her, will she go out of the house again and again to look around?"

Li Yuanfang was surprised and said, "My lord, you mean that Jinniang's unusual behavior these past few days is because she is looking for that letter?"

Wang Mang nodded: "It should be like this."

Di Renjie asked back: "Isn't it? Other than that, what else would make her so anxious? But she has already stolen the secret letter out of the Hou's mansion, how could..."

Di Renjie pondered.

Suddenly, Wang Mang said: "My lord, I suddenly remembered. I heard from Miss Ruyan that Jinniang left the mansion to go to the county government last night?"

Di Renjie's eyes lit up suddenly: "County government office!"

"County office?"

Li Yuanfang was stunned.

He looked at Wang Mang, and Wang Mang said, "What we need to figure out now is why Jinniang is going to the county government office."

Di Renjie nodded: "Yes, why did she go to the county government secretly?"

Wang Mang said, "Let's go, let's go to the county government and find out."

Di Renjie and Li Yuanfang looked at each other, and they nodded.
