Gua Fei in the world

Chapter 840; Manslaughter or Murder

"Hmph, you know how to underestimate me." Ye Yaoguang snorted coldly, picked up the record and read it carefully.

Since it was a homicide case, there must be a deceased person, and this deceased person was the only son of a small family in the imperial capital.The one who died was really strange, he was poisoned to death at home in his mother's room, definitely not his stepmother but his biological mother, and the head of this family only had one wife and one concubine, and the family was extremely simple.On the day of the incident, the deceased returned home from outside and went to his mother's room, most likely to pay his respects. His mother was in the bedroom, and he waited outside the bedroom. He died of poisoning while talking to his mother.

The poison was found out immediately, it was in the teacup; the source of the poison has also been found out, it was the personal maid of his father's concubine's room who went to the pharmacy to buy it.Originally thought that the source of the poison was found out, and the murderer must be his father's concubine, but after Jing Zhaoyin's inspection, he found that the poison was bought by his maid to commit suicide, because the maid's sweetheart deceived her and married another woman.

"Manslaughter case?" Ye Yaoguang read a very simple case record and thought for a while before asking.

Since the poison was purchased by someone else, and the purpose was not for the deceased, and the evidence in the case record strongly proved that the maid did not lie, and the concubine had no motive or time for committing the crime.Because, that day, the concubine's younger brother finally had a son when he was over 30 years old, and he was coming to announce the good news.Even if the concubine's room has any grudges, it is impossible to kill the person with poison on the same day. The ancients were very superstitious, and she wanted to accumulate virtue for the newborn.This concubine sold herself as a maid for her younger brother because her family was poor when she was young. It can be seen that the sister and younger brother love each other deeply. I have no children in my life, and I should be very happy to treat my younger brother who only had children at the age of [-].

Wen Tingzhan looked at Ye Yaoguang with a smile on his face: "How about manslaughter?"

"Look, this confession, this maid who bought poison to commit suicide entered the kitchen that day, maybe she just wanted to poison herself..." Halfway through the sentence, Ye Yaoguang felt that something was wrong, even though the family was not very rich, only It's a big kitchen, but since it can be used as a maid, the utensils used by the maid and the master's house must be different, so it is impossible to use the wrong equipment or inject the wrong poison...

Wen Tingzhan did not speak, but handed another confession to Ye Yaoguang. It was the confession of several servants in the kitchen. They all saw that the maid who bought the drug went to the kitchen to ask for tea, but it was not poisonous. That one pot, and the maids can't occupy the stove of the master's house. As a maid in the concubine's room, she is naturally watched by the maid of the mistress, and there is no chance of poisoning her.

Ye Yaoguang read all the confessions again, and found that there were only two maids in this concubine's room, one was the maid who bought drugs, and the other was in charge of running errands, pouring tea and delivering water.And the reason why the eldest maid went to the kitchen to fetch water herself was because the young maid had suffered from the wind and cold, and the water was still for the young maid, and this concubine kept her own life on weekdays, and lived in peace with the main wife for many years.The wife is not a harsh person either, there is no quarrel between the two...

All those who may have conflicts of interest with the deceased or the deceased's mother, including the owner of the family, Ye Yaoguang read the confession in detail, and the evidence listed by Jing Zhaoyin found that it was impossible to be the murderer. Such a small case really made Ye Yaobal's head a little bigger.

"This Jing Zhaoyin is not bad." After reading it, Ye Yaoguang came to such a conclusion.

In fact, this kind of case that does not involve a big person, it is obvious that everyone is pointing the finger at the concubine's room, Jing Zhaoyin can hastily settle it, although the concubine's room has no direct evidence to prove that she murdered the mistress, but she herself has no evidence to prove it His own innocence, the conclusion of the case like this, no one can say anything, but he did not close the case, and owed Wen Tingzhan his love for such an insignificant person.

"If that wasn't the case, how could I worry about him?" Wen Tingzhan said with a smile, "This Jing Zhaoyin's surname is Zhao, with a single name of "bribe". As the name suggests, he likes to accept bribes. But he is not a person who caress about human life." , what money should be collected and what money should not be collected, he weighed it very clearly in his heart, it was the second-ranked Jinshi who was one class earlier than Yue Shuyi when the late emperor was alive, and at the bottom of the second-class list, he was almost reduced to the same Jinshi. His classmates at the same time, except Mr. Gu, have no achievements, which shows his ability."

"Did you fall in love with this man?" Ye Yaoguang squinted at Wen Tingzhan.

"Available, deliverable, unreliable." Wen Tingzhan gave a seven-character comment.

"Then you plan to help him solve this case?" Ye Yaoguang frowned and looked at the pair of evidence statements on the desk in front of him...

Wen Tingzhan casually picked out a copy and handed it to Ye Yaoguang.

This is an investigation of the deceased, and Ye Yaoguang looked at it again with doubts: "This deceased is considered a relatively clean person, has no bad habits, and does not associate with ignorant gangsters. , at home, the store at home is three o’clock and one line, I just read the confessions of the servants at home, the students in the school, and the store clerk. And even if outsiders really have this ability, with his family background, they will never meet such a thoughtful person who knows how to use the poison bought by the maid at home, let alone send the poison to others mother's room, so the possibility of poisoning him to death is too small, but if you want to kill his mother to make his life worse than death, there is no such great hatred..."

It was also something that Ye Yaoguang couldn't figure out at all. If the murderer was targeting the deceased, then the method of poisoning was too clever, and he must be someone who knew every move of the mansion.If the family of the deceased was rich and powerful, Ye Yaoguang did not rule out the possibility, because there were already many people targeting them, and the opponents were also rich and powerful, who could afford the manpower and material resources.But the family of the deceased can only be said to be well-off, and the level of acquaintances should be the same. If there is no such financial resources, and if the family of the deceased is not monitored, how will they know that the father of the deceased has a concubine, and he is concerned that the maid of a concubine of no status bought poison , then it is even less likely that there will be more manpower-consuming arrangements later.

If this was a murder case, the target of the murder was the mother of the deceased, but Ye Yaoguang also carefully considered all possible murderers, but none of them were established.The deceased's mother was a housewife, and she was tolerant of concubines and servants, and she had deep trust and respect from the deceased's father. Otherwise, it wouldn't have been so many years, except for the concubine who was married before the wife was raised as a concubine. Never take a child again, even if there is only one single seedling under the knee.
