Liaozhai: I just want salted fish with invincible magical powers

Chapter 279
Hearing what Hu Qian said, Zhao Guang was shocked immediately, but he was afraid of being beaten, so he didn't dare to ask.

Hu Qian waved his hand, "But before I talk about Zhao Yilang, I want to ask.

Zhao Guang!How did Zhao Yilang and Ai Daer die! "

Zhao Guang panicked, "Little man..."

Hu Qian said with a smile: "Tomorrow, if the master asks about Zhao Yilang and Ai Da'er, I will presume that they were found out by Zhao Wan and his son for adultery, and beat each other to death!
Zhao Guang!Are you thinking of saying it! "

Zhao Guang was so frightened that he could not move with his mouth open.

The rest of the people were shocked when they saw his appearance.

What Hu Qian said is true!
How did he know what Zhao Guang was going to say!Could it be that he is really a god!
Zhao Guang kowtowed repeatedly, "Master, the villain said, the villain said everything.

At that time, the villain didn't know about Zhao Yilang's adultery with Ai Da'er.

After many people died that day, the villain wanted to go to Zhao Wan to discuss countermeasures, but when he arrived in the yard, he saw Zhao Shou and Zhao Yilang fighting together, and when the villain called someone to pull them away, Zhao Shou is dead.

Zhao Wan and Ai Daer were still lying in the room, and both of them were dead. "

Hu Qian said: "Come here, bring out the bodies of Zhao Wan and his son, Zhao Yilang and Ai Daer."

Immediately, a yamen servant carried the body out, and Wu Zuo followed behind.

"Wu Zuo, how did these people die?"

Wu Zuo said: "My lord, Zhao Wan died of poisoning, Zhao Shou was stabbed to death by a sharp knife, Ai Da'er was also stabbed to death by a sharp knife, Zhao Yilang has many wounds all over his body, he should have been beaten to death."

Hu Qian said again: "Leave Zhao Wan's body, carry the rest out, and then bring in the woman's body, Zhu Chang's and Bu Cai's bodies."

Lin Chaotong and Fang Yide didn't understand what it meant, so they didn't ask immediately.

Hu Qian said: "Wu Zuo, let's see how these people died."

Wu Zuo said: "The woman was strangled to death, Zhu Chang was stabbed to death by a sharp knife, and Bu Cai died of poisoning."

Hu Qian said: "Are the wounds on Zhu Chang's body the same as those on Zhao Shou and Ai Da'er?"

"The wounds on Zhu Chang and Zhao Shou are the same. They should be injured by the same sharp blade. Ai Daer's wound is narrower, as if he was injured by a sharp object such as scissors."

Lin Chaotong said: "Could it be that both Zhu Chang and Zhao Shou were killed by Zhao Yilang?"

Hu Qian nodded, "Come here! Go to Zhao's house and search to see if you can find the evil blade."

Then he looked at Zhao Guang and said, "Zhao Guang! How did Zhao Yilang die!"

At this moment, Zhao Guang didn't have the guts to hide anything, and said in a low voice, "Zhao Yilang was beaten to death by me and the Zhao family..."

"Where are Zhao Wan's father and son and Ai Da'er?"

"At that time, Zhao Yilang said that Zhao Wan and his son were afraid that Zhu's family would make trouble in the Yamen, so they killed Laoer Ding and Aunt Tian, ​​but he bumped into them.

Zhao Wan and his son said they would give him 300 taels of silver to keep him secret.

Not long after, Ai Da'er went to tell him that Zhao Wan and his son didn't want to give money and planned to poison him.

Zhao Yilang looked for an opportunity to exchange wine, but Zhao Wan was poisoned to death, Zhao Shou rushed in to fight, stabbed Ai Daer to death with scissors, and then Zhao Yilang stabbed Zhao Shou to death with a dagger..."

Hu Qian nodded, "That makes sense, we just need to find the dagger to verify."

Fang Yide and the two were overwhelmed with admiration, and the messy case finally had some clues.

Hu Qian said: "Zhu Wu! Didn't you say that your father and Bu Cai were both killed by the Zhao family?
Now Bu Cai was poisoned to death!What do you say!
Could it be that when the two families were fighting, Bucai still ate and drank by the way! "

Zhu Wu knew that there was not much to deny, so he said: "After the body was found by the river, the villain and my father made a plan to rely on the Zhao family.

It's just that I have to find a relationship with this woman, so I asked Bu Cai to recognize her as his wife, and then went to cry and make a fuss.

Unexpectedly, Bu Cai said that some benefits must be given afterwards, otherwise the matter would be exposed, so when he was about to arrive at Zhao's house, his father gave Bu Cai poisoned wine and let him die in Zhao's house. "

Hu Qian said: "In this way, all the people who died because of the land dispute between the Zhao family and the Zhu family will be known."

Fang Yide and Lin Chaotong originally thought that Hu Qian's solution to the case was based on magical powers, but now after hearing this trial, they realize that Hu Qian's logic is meticulous and his thinking is clear, which is really admirable.

Hu Qian said: "Except for the woman's body, carry out the rest."

A group of yamen servants immediately carried the body away.

Hu Qian said: "Did you recognize the dead body before?"

Fang Yide said: "Because the Zhu family insisted that this woman is Bu Cai's wife, so they never identified the body."

Hu Qian smiled and said, "Bucai said it was his wife, didn't Master Lin check it out?"

Shaking his head, he continued: "Bai Erlang."

Not long after, Bai Erlang arrived.

Hu Qian said: "Bai Erlang, do you recognize this woman?"

Bai Erlang was stunned and said: "Master, this is the neighbor Zeng Dacai's wife Yang."

Hu Qian said: "Come here, bring Zeng Dacai for questioning."

Not long after, a dark man came to the hall, saw Yang's body, he was taken aback for a moment, then burst into tears.

Hu Qian said: "Who is in the hall, report the name."

"The villain was once rich, and I met the master."

Hu Qian said: "Is this person your wife?"

"Master, that's right."

"Since it's your wife, why didn't you look for her and report her to the police when she died!"

"Small... villain..."

"You killed him, didn't you!"

"The villain didn't kill anyone! The villain just scolded her..."

"How dare you scold!"

"Little man..."

Hu Qian threw down the order sign, "It's really forty sticks!"

Zeng Dacai said: "Master, don't hit me, the villain will tell you everything!"

Hu Qian waved his hand, "Say it!"

"That day when the villain came back from the store, he heard his neighbor, Mrs. Sun, yelling at the door, saying that it was a little woman who stole a man.

The villain was confused for a moment, so he gave her a hemp rope and told her to hang herself at Sun's door. "

Hu Qian shook his head and said, "You are really confused.

Come, tell Sun and her father-in-law. "

"My lord, Mrs. Sun is dead."

Hu Qian was taken aback, "How did you die?"

"His father-in-law said it was suicide."

"Passed down to Sun's husband."

After a while, another man walked in in a panic and knelt on the ground.

"Master, the villain Guo Dong is Sun's husband."

"Guo Dong, how did your wife die?"

"Back to the master, the lady and the villain are angry, and they can't think of committing suicide by taking poison for a while."

Hu Qian snorted, "Bring out Mrs. Sun's body."

Before Hu Qian could order, Wu Zuo had already stepped forward to check.

"My lord, this Mrs. Sun was indeed poisoned to death."

"Are there any other wounds on the body?"

"No."

Hu Qian said: "Guo Dong, where were you when Mrs. Sun died?"

"Master, at that time, the villain and the lady were having a fight because of her quarrel with the neighbors, so the villain said a few harsh words, and then went outside to drink."

"Where do you go for a drink?"

"Yongxing Restaurant in the west of the city."

"Where do you live?"

"East of the city."

"You live in the east of the city, why don't you find a nearby place to drink, why go to the west of the city on purpose!"

"Because I heard that the wine there is very good, so I want to try it."

Hu Qian said: "So, after Yang and Sun quarreled, one hanged himself and the other committed suicide by taking poison.

Master Lin, Master Fang, what do you think? "

Lin Chaotong and Fang Yide looked at each other, and felt a little dizzy when they heard this, and had no idea for a while.

Hu Qian said: "Bai Erlang!

Your father is white iron, right? "

"Back to the master, yes."

"How did your father die?"

"When the villain woke up in the morning, he saw his father lying on the ground with his eyes wide open. He had been dead for a long time, as if he saw something terrible, and his whole body was also very stiff."

"Are there any scars on your body?"

"No."

"Is there anything wrong with your father's health?"

"Daddy has been blacksmithing for many years, and his arm has problems. Before he died, he contracted a cold."

"Does he get up often at night?"

"Yes."

"When your father died, was the door of your house open or closed?"

"It's open."

"Is there anything missing?"

"No."

Hu Qian nodded, "Wang Erxiao, the prince's son."

After a while, Wang Er laughed to the hall.

"Wang Erxiao, how did your father, the prince, die?"

"My lord, my father was beaten to death by the waiter Zhang San with an abacus."

"Why did Zhang San kill your father?"

"This villain is not clear. It was night, and the villain was going to sleep in the backyard. He suddenly heard his father shouting that you can sue him if you have the ability. When he rushed over, he saw Zhang San running away from the door. Cracked, Daddy died with blood all over his head."

Hu Qian looked at Fang Yide, "Have you ever caught Zhang San?"

Fang Yide said: "Zhang San hanged himself on the crooked neck tree behind his house, presumably he committed suicide in fear of crime."

Hu Qian was also a little puzzled at this time.

Both Yang and Sun committed suicide, Bai Tie died at home, the prince was beaten to death by Zhang San, and Zhang San hanged himself to death.

It seems that there is nothing suspicious, but there seems to be something wrong.

"Bai Erlang, Zhao Guang said he saw you at Zhao's house, what did you do then?"

"Back to the master, the Zhao family village has not paid the plowshares for the villain's house. The villain is afraid that his father will die and they will renege on the debt, so they went to collect the debt early."

"Received yet?"

"At that time, his house was beaten and killed, and the villain didn't dare to go in."

Hu Qian nodded, and then looked at Guo Dong, "You said you went to drink at Yongxing Restaurant, but have you ever met anyone?"

"Both the shopkeeper and Xiaoer have seen it."

"What about other than that?"

"There are still a few diners I don't know, and the rest is gone."

Hu Qian said: "Talk to the shopkeeper and waiter of Yongxing Restaurant."

Guo Dong's complexion changed slightly, and he bowed his head in silence.

Before the person arrived, Hu Qian waved his hand at the yamen servant, "Take Guo Dong to the second hall to watch, and don't allow him to come out."

The two yamen servants immediately took Guo Dong out.

Not long after, the shopkeeper and waiter of Yongxing Restaurant arrived.

"Do you recognize Guo Dong?"

The shopkeeper said: "Is it Guo Dong who has a shrew in his family? The villain has some impressions."

Xiao Er also nodded.

"Has he been in your store lately to drink?"

"I've been there."

"When did you arrive and when did you leave?"

"Arrived around Xu time, left very late, and later heard that his wife committed suicide that day."

"When is it late?"

"About midnight."

"Has he met anyone?"

"No."

When Hu Qian was about to be confused, Xiao Er suddenly said, "Master, at that time someone came in in a hurry, bumped into the villain, and then he went to Guo Dong."

"Did they sit together and drink?"

"No, Guo Dong saw him coming, said something in a low voice, then hurriedly checked out and left."

"What does that person look like?"

"very common……"

Hu Qian glanced under the hall, you stand up and have a look, is there such a person kneeling under the hall.

Xiao Er immediately responded, stood up and looked back and forth.

Hu Qian said: "You all raise your heads up for me! Otherwise, you will be a guilty conscience!"

With that said, everyone immediately held their heads high.

Xiao Er scanned back and forth several times, and finally stopped in front of Zeng Dacai hesitantly.

"Master, this is the man."

"Are you sure it's him?"

"He bumped into the villain, so he remembers it clearly."

Hu Qian smiled and looked at Zeng Dacai, "Tell me, what are you doing there?"

"Little man...going to drink..."

"When did you leave the door?"

"About Haishi."

"Going out to drink at Haishi, hum!"

"Because the villain... because the lady is missing, so..."

"Still lying! Come here! Hit forty again!"

After being beaten with a stick, Zeng Dacai became much more honest, but he still couldn't explain the reason.

"Going out to drink at Haishi, and only arrived at Yongxing Restaurant at Zishi, with such rhetoric, do you still want to fool a sensible person!

come!Hit again!Until the truth is told! "

Zeng Dacai suddenly shouted: "My lord, the villain is innocent, so it is the same thing to kill the villain!"

"yes!
During the day, your wife Yang and Guo Dong's wife Sun quarreled fiercely, and both committed suicide at night, but you two seemed to have an appointment to go to Yongxing Restaurant to drink at the same time. "

"The world is so big, so there is no such thing as coincidence! If the master doesn't give evidence, he just kills the villain for nothing, and the same will be said in the underworld!"

Fang Yide shouted: "What a troublemaker! How dare you despise the court!"

Hu Qian waved his hand, "Since you want evidence, I will convince you to death!

This officer asks you, what did you and Guo Dong talk about! "

Zeng Dacai panicked immediately, "This... villain drank so much, I can't remember clearly."

Even Lin Chaotong, who was as stable as Lin Chaotong, couldn't stand it, his face was full of anger, and he wished he could go over and strangle this person to death.

Hu Qian nodded, "Remember what you said! Come here! Find a black cloth and cover his head! When I will be questioning you, if you dare to make the slightest sound, you will be killed immediately!"
Come on!Bring Guo Dong up! "

Zeng Dacai was flustered, but he didn't dare to take any action, allowing the yamen servant to cover his head.

After Guo Dong came in, he saw a person in the hall covered with a black cloth, but he didn't know who it was.

"Guo Dong, you just said that you went to Yongxing Restaurant to drink, and you didn't see anyone else during the period, did you?"

"Yes……"

"Say it again!"

"Yes."

"You're lying! The manager of the restaurant and the waiter both saw you talking to someone! How dare you say no!"

"Small... villain..."

Hu Qian slapped the gavel and shouted, "Who is that man!"

"It's Zeng Dacai!"

"What did you see him do!"

"Nothing! I just ran into it by accident!"

"What did you say to him!"

"It's nothing, it's just a curse word."

"How dare you argue! Guo Dong didn't say that!"

"This……"

"This officer will give you one last chance, how did your wife die!"

"It was suicide by taking poison..."

Hu Qian clenched his fist slightly, and he was about to succeed, but he didn't expect that these two people were really tough.

He circled around Sun's body, and suddenly asked: "Wu Zuo, is there really no other wounds on Sun's body?"

Wu Zuo shook his head and said, "Indeed not."

Hu Qian lifted the cloth and took a look, his heart moved, and asked in a low voice: "Does Mrs. Sun have that mark on her body?"

Wu Zuo was also taken aback, "This..."

"Come on! Tell Wen Po to come and have a look!"

After a while, Wen Po said: "My lord, Mrs. Sun's body has been insulted before."
