Chapter 28 Dossier
In fact, Shen Qingling still misunderstood these heirs of the Ren family.

First of all, the eldest brother, Ren Shaoming, is very intelligent. Although he is a bit irritable and bad-tempered, he takes good care of the younger ones in the family. The second brother, Ren Shaoyan, is relatively lively and knows how to take care of others.

The reason why Ren Bingyi does not allow his children to become officials is more to respect their own wishes.

Of course, Shen Qingling only knew this after getting along with the three brothers of the Ren family.Right now she is standing at the door of the side hall with lowered brows, although she has never looked at the three brothers, but her attention has always been on them.

Ren Shaoming always knew that his younger brother was out of tune, so he didn't take the things he brought out seriously, but he stopped nagging him about his faults, and instead took out the files beside him to read them.

By doing this, he was giving Ren Shaoyan and Ren Shaochun a step down.

Ren Shaoyan hurriedly took the portrait from his younger brother, opened it, and asked, "Who is this? It has something to do with the fourth child?"

"Yes." Ren Shaochun nodded again and again, explaining: "It was a clue provided by one of my informants. Brother, why don't you give this portrait to Lao Jiang and the others, and let them search for it as soon as possible?"

Ren Shaoming, who was looking at the file, immediately raised his head, frowned and asked, "What about the evidence? You can't just rely on two paintings and let the yamen servants run all over the street, and you may disturb the people."

Lao Jiang, who came back first, had already reported the information asked in Wuliu Alley, so both Ren Shaoming and Ren Shaoyan knew that there was nothing to be gained from his younger brother going out.

As for the informant...

They couldn't be more clear about Ren Shaochun's virtues. What kind of informant can he have?The informant to the land of the fireworks is about the same.

"Brother is right, you have to produce some solid evidence, otherwise we won't be able to explain to my father." Ren Shaoyan hastily rolled up the portrait, stuffed it into Ren Shaoming's arms, and kept pointing at Ren Shao as he spoke Chun winked.

Shen Qingling originally thought that if Ren Shaochun couldn't speak clearly, she would be able to speak, but she didn't expect Ren Shaochun to smirk repeatedly, and lied: "How could I lie to elder brother? My informant is waiting outside the government office, If the eldest brother calls Lao Jiang, she will definitely be willing to lead the way. At that time, the eldest brother will ask her personally? How dare the common people lie to the yamen servants."

In these words, seven points are coquettish, and three points are rascals.

Coupled with Ren Shaoyan's urging, Ren Shaoming finally had to sigh, got up and walked out of the side hall with the portrait in his arms.When he got out of the hall, Ren Shaoming glanced sideways at Shen Qingling who was standing at the door, turned his head and left without asking a word.

When Ren Shaoming left, Ren Shaochun showed his original shape, squeezed his ass next to the second brother, and asked in a low voice: "Second brother, how many days have you seen your files? The difficult cases you picked out that day are all in the same place. Gave it to father?"

In the past, Ren Shaochun had no interest in these things, so when he asked this question, Ren Shaoyan was a little surprised.

But Ren Shaoyan thought about it again, it was better to care about the case than the little lady, so he took a copy from the pile of files next to him and handed it to Ren Shaochun, jokingly said: "You sent away brother just to find out about this with me? No need, although eldest brother is a bit strict, but knowing that you are eager to learn, you must be very happy."

The dossier placed in Ren Shaochun's arms was not thick, Shen Qingling was holding a star, her eyes were focused on Ren Shaochun's expression, fearing that she might feel a little disappointed from his face.

Fortunately, after turning over a few pages, Ren Shaochun revealed a happy expression.

"What are you looking for?" Ren Shaoyan was thoughtful, and quickly noticed something wrong with Ren Shaochun's expression, "Don't come here to be stupid because of some little lady, if you really leaked the files of the government office, father will beat you up It cannot escape."

After finishing speaking, Ren Shaoyan pressed his palm on the case.

"No, no." Ren Shaochun shook his head quickly, "I just remember that I saw a case in the file, and I met the daughter of the prisoner in that case outside the government office just now, and heard her talk about it. I just thought about checking it out."

Ren Shaoyan looked suspiciously at Ren Shaochun, then looked up at Shen Qingling at the door.

His eyes clearly regarded Shen Qingling as the daughter Ren Shaochun was talking about, but he still didn't ask about Shen Qingling's identity, and turned his head to look at the details on the file.

"The wilderness..."

"Chengde committed the crime of looting in the suburbs of Yangzhou in the ninth year..."

Listening to Ren Shaoyan's reading, Shen Qingling felt a little dazed for no reason, as if she had returned to Bianjing, back to the deep house in Shouwang Mansion.It wasn't Ren Shaoyan's voice that sounded in her ears, but the slightly hoarse voice of the official's return.

Kuangye was sentenced to be executed in autumn, so when Shen Qingling took Yuxiang in, Kuangye was actually not far from death.

So Shen Qingling immediately stopped Ren Bingyi's knife, and directly used Li Yu's connections to rescue him. What she thought was, if the wilderness was really the murderer, then she had to find out by herself before making a conclusion.

But the more she understood Ren Bingyi, the more puzzled Shen Qingling became.

With Ren Bingyi's way of being a man and an official, he would never make a hasty conclusion, that is to say, the wilderness is very likely to be the real culprit.

"During the looting, Kuang Ye killed three people and wounded two with his own knife. The two survivors testified against Kuang Ye as the murderer after waking up, and because the knife that committed the murder was left at the scene of the murder, and Kuang Ye There were wounds left in the fight, so Kuang Ye was detained in the Yangzhou government that month."

After reading, Ren Shaoyan looked at Ren Shaochun puzzled, and asked, "What's wrong with this case? A few days ago, my elder brother and I went to meet those two witnesses. Although one of them has passed away, the remaining one is still steadfast. The land testifies of the wilderness."

Not only that, but the witness also produced new evidence.

Ren Shaoyan turned around, rummaged through a pile of messy books, took out a piece of yellowed letter paper, shook it, and said: "This is the motive for committing the murder in the wilderness at that time. The deceased Zhou Yuanwai had 50 taels of silver in cash, which was not enough, so he had the idea of ​​killing people and exempting himself from debts."

"This is..." Ren Shaochun reached out and took the letter paper.

There are wilderness characters and handprints on the IOU. If you compare it, it cannot be faked.

Shen Qingling squinted her eyes. In her previous life, the IOU was not sent to Bianjing, but kept in the Yangzhou government office, and it was classified into the archives.

Ren Bingyi was indeed a good official, but after Shen Qingling had a deep understanding of the wilderness case, he found that there seemed to be someone secretly guiding the trial officials from the beginning to the end of the case.

The previous magistrate of Yangzhou was like this, and so was Ren Bingyi.

It is certain that the wilderness did not kill anyone. After confirming this fact, Shen Qingling didn't go into it because she was about to set off for the northern border. Later, Ren Bingyi even reported this matter, and severely scolded Shen Qingling, the birthday concubine, in the article. .
