Jiapingguan Chronicle

Chapter 687 Various guesses

"General, this is the dossier of the Mu family." Mei Zhu rushed in with a big box in her hands, and put the box on the table closest to Shen Cha. "Master Hou said, please take a look at the boss and the Duke of the country, and don't rush to return it."

"Understood!" Shen Cha nodded, "In this case, let someone send you back to the Duke's Mansion, and watch it slowly tonight."

"Yes!" Mei Zhu replied, "Also, on the way back, passing by Little Zhuolu's residence, the soldier in charge of guarding told me that since we left there until just now, there have been a few sneaky people. People are hanging around, not knowing what to do."

"How old are these sneaky people, are they male or female?"

"Two boys and one girl, young, about sixteen or seventeen."

Several people glanced at each other. If they guessed right, these three should be Matintu's younger siblings. They probably couldn't sit still at home and wanted to come out to find out the news.

"They can't hold back anymore." Bai Meng raised an eyebrow, "This is very beneficial to us, and the plan to lure the snake out of the hole can be better implemented."

"Unfortunately, I was late and they had already left."

"It's nothing to regret." Bai Meng smiled at her, "Since I have already shown my face, I won't show it just once, there will be a second or third time, and I will always find a chance." He stretched his hand Lazily, I looked at everyone, "I guess there is nothing to see, let's go? If we stay here, the pressure on the Ministry of Justice will be too great, and they don't know what to do."

"That's right!" Song Qiyun nodded, and handed the portrait he had just painted to Bai Meng, "Commander, let's work!"

"Okay, work! Since they are so concerned about the progress of this case, let's go along with the flow and let them understand thoroughly, let them know what sacrifices their elder brother has made for them!"

While talking, Bai Meng put on her cloak, grabbed the portrait Song Qiyun had drawn, put it in her arms, and rushed out.

Mei Zhu sent the dossier of the Mu family back to the Duke's Mansion in advance, and Shen Cha copied three copies of Ma Tingtu's confession, and sent Yingying to the Imperial Palace, Dai Wang's Mansion and Xuanyuan Courtyard respectively, so that Song Jue, Dai Wangye, and Xuanyuan Liang could learn about it progress of the case.

"Sister Xiaocha, do you want that person to read the letter you sent to Old General Xuanyuan?" Song Qiyun stretched after following Shen Haolin and Shen Cha as they left the Ministry of Justice, "You want to tell him that the Mu family may also be a hidden stake." ?”

"You said, who would know the list of the oldest hidden piles?" Shen Cha raised his eyebrows, "Even if he is not the one we guessed, he can still give us an idea based on old General Xuanyuan's face. Pretty good, isn't it? Besides, isn't he really that guy?"

"Sister Xiaocha said yes, but I didn't expect to catch the murderer so quickly. I thought it would take a few days!"

"Be careful with your words. I've only caught one of the murderers now, and there are still a few who haven't caught!" Shen Cha looked at Song Qiyun who was moving his body while walking, "Also, whoever drew that mark? What kind of person, do you have any ideas?"

"At present, there should be two possibilities." Shen Haolin stretched out two fingers, "One is really related to them, and the other..."

"This person saw how much we cared about this mark at the scene of Yu Qi's accident yesterday, so in order to catch the murderer, he deliberately drew this pattern on the wrists of the little Zhuolu's family to attract our attention. "

Song Qiyun rubbed his stomach, feeling a little hungry, looking around for something delicious.

"Then, this person should have a very good relationship with Xiao Zhuolu's family, and he is eager to catch the murderer and avenge Xiao Zhuolu's family." Shen Haolin looked at Shen Cha, "I'm more inclined to this one, and the former one shouldn't be too bad. Maybe, they are not stupid enough to take the initiative to send their handle to us."

"Agreed!" Shen Cha nodded, "Unless there is a disagreement among them and they want to take the initiative to expose themselves, but this possibility is very small. Like my brother, I am more inclined to the latter, and there is only one that can make sense."

"However, there is one more thing that is not clear." Song Qiyun blinked, "The second time we inspected the small courtyard, there was only one handprint of Ma Tingtu on the wall, and there were no extra footprints in the courtyard. How did this person... get in?" of? How did you get out?"

"This is indeed a good question. I'll leave it to the people from the Ministry of Criminal Justice and Jingzhao Mansion to investigate, and see that Xiao Zhuolu's family has no friends in Xijing who can be entrusted with life and death." Shen Haolin and Shen Cha stopped, waiting for Song Qiyun to go Buy a pack of mung bean cakes, "Leave it to them. Let's not interfere. After all, it's what they should do. We can just take care of our own affairs and don't make extra troubles. Xijing City has too many eyes staring at us. , Don’t follow the truth and ruin our plan.”

"What brother said is that we paid attention to this case because we thought it had something to do with it, but judging from the current situation, nine out of ten it has nothing to do with what we want to investigate, so we might as well just let it go." Having said that, Shen Cha sighed softly, "It's just that the child Dai Yi is too miserable. If Mu Sheng really has something to do with there, the marriage that the two of them signed will be cancelled. No, it's not just the marriage that will be affected. , the friendship between the Mu family and the Dai family for so many years can only end."

"If it's as we guessed, then the relationship between the Mu family and the Dai family was not that simple." Shen Haolin shook his head lightly, "Dai Yi prayed that Ma Tingtu was wrong, and that the Mu family had nothing to do with that side. "

"How likely is it that brother thinks this is?"

"Almost none. There are a lot of things about the Mu family. You can get by if you don't delve into them. If you study carefully, there will be many details that don't make sense." Shen Haolin shook his head lightly, "Although the Mu family may not do something that will harm Daxia's interests over the years. However, once their identities are revealed, it will be difficult not to involve their family members, at least their reputation will definitely be bad. Although Dai Yi looks like a fool, he will never marry such a family. I wonder if the Mu family and the Dai family had good intentions in the beginning, and whether they just waited for this day to let the Dai family be buried with their family."

"And that girl, Dai Yi may be the hand that reveals the truth, and may be the one who pushes the Mu family into the abyss. Even if she is not implicated, she will not marry Dai Yi. Every time she sees Dai Yi, she will think of her once warm home, and her family is torn apart because of this person. This knot will slowly form in her heart, and it will be very difficult to untie it."

"My lord, General!" Mei Zhu, who came back to look for someone after delivering the files, suddenly appeared in front of Shen Haolin and Shen Cha, and nodded to Song Qiyun who came back from buying food, "Your Highness, we have a visitor!"

"Guest?" The three looked at each other, "Who is it?"

"The guards of the old general Xuanyuan are waiting in the warm hall now."
