Start with detective Li Yuanfang

Chapter 35 No one believes the truth

"Before the incident, did you search this house? Is it possible that the murderer hid in it early?"

"Report to the governor, I have searched, this is the upper hall of my post house in the Tang Dynasty, there is no secret passage, the murderer could not have hidden in the house early..."

"Are you sure that the scream was made by the envoy? Could it be the murderer's disguise?"

"Impossible. I just entered the hall a quarter of an hour ago and had a brief exchange with the Nianzhengshi. He was still fine at that time. After I greeted him, he came out of the hall and didn't leave halfway..."

Li Yan, who is a normal person with wisdom, can quickly spot blind spots. Pei Sijian, the governor of Liangzhou, immediately asked a few questions.

After getting a negative answer, Pei Sijian frowned slightly, and continued to listen to Qiu Shenji's narration:
"I was about to check the clues, but this group of people rushed in without any explanation, messed up the scene, arrested me, and insulted me as a murderer!"

"My God, if I want to harm Nian Zhengshi, I just need to stand by and watch, and he will naturally be harmed by the bad guys. Why bother?"

"Obviously, there are villains inside the Tubo envoys, and it is only in this way that Nianzheng's life can be assassinated. Please learn from me!"

Qiu Shenji also knew about the announcement of Liniang's murder. As soon as Nian Zenggu died, he suspected that it was Tubo's trick.

Therefore, his words not only elevate his own image and remove all responsibilities, but also put the blame on Tubo.

It's a pity that Brun Zanren snorted: "How dare you turn black and white, after we came in, we just took you down and didn't touch anything here at all! You just said that Nian Gong is in the hall, you are guarding outside, and you are surrounded by Tang Dynasty Guard, how did the murderer escape?"

Qiu Shenji said decisively: "At that time, ten of us were guarding all the main passages in the upper hall. There was no way the murderer could have escaped. He must have been hiding in the room. He will sneak away after you rush in and arrest us."

Bren praised: "Okay, even if the murderer escaped like this, how did the murderer get into the upper hall?"

Qiu Shenji's complexion changed slightly: "This...I don't know yet...but it must have been designed by you...Nian Zhengshi was killed by you!"

After he was caught last night, he had been thinking hard all night, and he couldn't figure out how the murderer got in.

"shut up!"

Bren Zanjian scolded, and began to go online: "Let the murderer come and go easily, so as not to be punished, maliciously bite, is this the responsibility of you Tang people?"

Seeing all Tang people glaring at him, he stared back without fear: "What are you looking at! Do you dare to do it or not!"

Both the inner guard and the yamen had bad looks on their faces, and they especially hated Qiu Shenji.

Don't do porcelain work without diamonds!
Now that the person is dead, he is responsible for the lack of protection, and also implicated Datang, what a waste!
"This case is very strange..."

Li Yan stood in the crowd and was also thinking.

His current general judgment is consistent with Qiu Shenji's, that is, the death of Nian Zenggu was probably planned by the Tubo envoys.

Because there are actually two murder previews.

The first scene was announced by Liniang in the inner prison, and someone would die within ten days.

The second scene was received by Qiu Shenji three days ago, and the Tubo ambassador was about to be assassinated.

The murderer seems to be afraid that others will not know, the taste of self-directed and self-acted is too strong.

As for Nian Zenggu, he had heard from Qiu Ying before that this old man was not a real power figure in Tubo, but only held the position of envoy because he was highly respected and loyal to the country.

The murder of such a person in Datang is a very serious political incident.

Internally, it can arouse the hatred of the Tang Dynasty among the Tubo people, and provide a righteous excuse for continuing to wage war.

Externally, it is a very good diplomatic card, taking the initiative in the negotiations between the two countries.

Starting from this point, the possibility of Nian Zenggu's suicide cannot be ruled out.

That way Qiu Shenji would not be able to find the murderer.

But there is a big difference between the traces of suicide and the traces of homicide, and it is not difficult for an experienced operator to judge it.

If it is exposed, then Tubo will really lose face, and the envoys will be completely reduced to a joke.

But if it was homicide, how did the murderer sneak in under Qiu Shenji's tight guard, and then leave secretly?

"It's so complicated..."

Li Yan's head hurts thinking about it.

Look at the talent bar again.

[Schrödinger's Detective] remained motionless.

Either way.

In terms of force, Li Yuanfang will not let everyone down.

When it comes to solving cases, I'm just a little transparent, don't come to me for things that use your brain.

in this process.

Qiu Ying's gaze came frequently.

Qiu Shenji also looked for where Li Yan was.

But Li Yan stood quietly without looking sideways.

He let him watch, the breeze blows the hills.

Pei Sijian was mature and prudent, so she looked at Lin Yuzuo: "Wu Zuo, is it suicide or homicide?"

At this time, Lin Yuzuo wrapped the slender murder weapon in the linen, looked at the size, was very surprised, and then looked at the palm of the corpse. Combined with Nian Zenggu's posture, he always felt that he was holding something when he was alive, but at this time But the palms are empty.

He didn't want to understand why, but he hesitated when he heard Pei Dudu's inquiry, "This..."

Pei Sijian said: "You judge from the death marks of the corpse, don't have other worries."

After thinking about it carefully, Lin Yu made a conclusion: "My judgment is homicide. Nianzhengshi is old, unable to understand martial arts, weak and weak, and wants to commit suicide. He can't kill him with such a simple blow."

Pei Sijian nodded slightly: "If you think so, there are thieves who maliciously provoke the relationship between Datang and Tubo!"

Bren Zanren's face changed slightly. He didn't expect Pei Sijian to say that. He rolled his eyes, pointed at Qiu Shenji and said, "No matter what, this person can't leave. Nian Gong was killed. He was the first person to discover, the most suspected and the most responsible. , must stay!"

"I will give you an explanation!"

Pei Sijian nodded: "Magistrate Cui!"

"The subordinate is here!"

Cui county magistrate came out.

Pei Sijian said: "This case is in the charge of the Guzang County Government. Is it possible to investigate the real culprit and arrest the criminals?"

Magistrate Cui replied loudly: "Yes!"

"it is good!"

Pei Sijian acted resolutely and led the team out.

"Pei Dudu! Qiu Geling! Li Wuwei!"

Qiu Shenji's complexion changed drastically, and he looked at Pei Sijian, Qiu Ying and Li Yan anxiously.

Pei Sijian turned a blind eye, Qiu Ying couldn't say anything in front of everyone, only Li Yan shook his head lightly.

What Li Yan meant was: "It's hopeless! Wait for death! You're finished!"

Qiu Shenji understood: "Don't panic! Don't be afraid! Nothing will happen!"

He tried to comfort himself, but was dragged down by the Tubo guards in dejection.

……

"Yuan Fang, why are you so inactive about this case?"

Back at the inner guard's garrison, Qiu Ying sat on the stool and looked at Li Yan with a slight frown.

"Uncle Qiu, we don't want to get involved in this case."

Li Yan thought about his words on the way: "Liniang made a murder notice, and the deceased was the Tubo ambassador. If the news spreads, the Liangzhou governor's mansion and the Guzang county government will come to ask for someone from us. Should we hand it over or not?" What about handing in?"

Qiu Ying was shocked: "I didn't expect this."

Liniang is the tip of his heart, and her position depends entirely on exploiting the interests of this person, how could she be willing to be involved by others, she immediately said: "Yuan Fang is thinking about Zhou Xiang, if this case is done well, it may not be of much credit, if it can't be done well You're going to be stuck in the mud!"

Li Yan smiled bitterly, and said the truth: "Actually, I didn't know how the Tubo ambassador died, and I can't control it if I want to!"

Qiu Ying was moved, and she didn't believe even a single punctuation mark in the truth: "Yuan Fang worked so hard, I understand, I understand!"

Li Yan stopped telling the truth, with sadness on his face: "Brother Qiu is going to suffer..."

"Yes! How did I tell him before, but as soon as I saw the credit, I didn't remember anything! To protect the Tubo envoy is such a big matter, I didn't even notify me, because I was afraid that I would not allow it!"

Qiu Ying was furious: "Greedy and aggressive, let him suffer some hardships, and it is also good for the future! You have to lose money early, when you are young, you go smoothly, and when you really stumble, you will never recover!"

As soon as Li Yan heard this tone, he knew that Qiu Ying still had high hopes for this nephew.

such a pity……

Qiu Shenji suffered a lot when he was young, but he didn't learn his lesson later, he desperately did dirty work for Wu Zetian, did all kinds of bad things by all means, and was finally killed by crossing the river and tearing down the bridge.

If virtue is not matched, there will be disasters.

Thinking about it this way, it was necessary for him to keep a low profile.

"Uncle Qiu, I'm going back!"

Just at this time Xiao Ling came in to report on his work, Li Yan bid farewell to Qiu Ying, and left the inner guard's station with ease.

Go straight to get off work, go home and pet the cat!
