Great Tang Dynasty

Chapter 1879

After learning about Dugu Juanjuan's actions that night, Qin Tian didn't stay in Gaofu any longer.

First, he needs to give Gao Shilian some face, and not embarrass Gao Shilian too much. After all, this is a family scandal. He sure doesn't want others to know, right?
As for Liu Ni's life and death, Qin Tian didn't care much.

It was already dusk when we left Gaofu.

At dusk in early autumn, the city of Chang'an felt cool.

Di Zhixun followed behind Qin Tian and said, "My lord, the most urgent thing now is to find Dugu Juanjuan's cousin. It is very likely that he knows something about Dugu Juanjuan."

Dugu Juanjuan was looking for him. If so, her cousin Duan Yu should know about Dugu Juanjuan's death.

Qin Tian nodded: "What you said makes sense, then I will trouble you to arrest that Duan Yu and come over for questioning."

Di Zhixun took the order to retreat, and then led people to arrest Duan Yu.

Dusk fell and it was already dark.

In a small house in Chang'an City, a man was packing his things hastily and wanted to escape.

He didn't know why he ran away, anyway, he was a little uneasy after learning the news that Dugu Juanjuan was killed.

He felt that if he didn't run away, he would definitely die.

However, just as he was packing his things in such a hurry, a group of yamen servants rushed in and controlled him.

Immediately afterwards, Di Zhixun came from the outside, and one of the packages that Duan Yu packed just now was not very good, and fell directly on the ground. There were many valuable and good things in the package, but you only need to look at it to know It's a woman's thing.

After Di Zhixun saw these things, he was a little curious. It stands to reason that Duan Yu's family background is average and he can't afford such expensive things, so it is very likely that these things were given to him by Dugu Juanjuan.

"Want to run?" Di Zhixun asked briefly, Duan Yu's face was a little ugly, and he begged for mercy: "My lord, please forgive me, Dugu Juanjuan's death has nothing to do with me, really has nothing to do with it."

Duan Yu kept begging for mercy, but Di Zhixun was unmoved at all, and said, "Tell me, what is your relationship with that Dugu Juanjuan? If there is a lie, I will believe that you are the one who killed Dugu Juanjuan." murderer."

"Sir, forgive me..."

"Say!"

Di Zhixun said something coldly, and Duan Yu said hastily: "I am Dugu Juanjuan's cousin, other than that, we really have nothing to do with each other."

Hearing this, Di Zhixun's face suddenly changed. He didn't expect that Duan Yu would want to hide something at this time. He was looking for death.

"Chop off one of his fingers until he tells the truth."

As soon as the words fell, a yamen servant immediately cut off one of Duan Yu's fingers. After Duan Yu's finger was cut off, he screamed in pain, but Di Zhixun snorted: "Put another stick of incense , if the stick of incense burns out and he hasn't told all the truth, then cut off one of his arms."

Cutting off a finger is already painful enough, but if you cut off an arm, it won't hurt to death?
And looking at the situation just now, these people really dared to cut off his arm. Thinking of this, Duan Yu was finally afraid, so, ignoring the pain of cutting off his finger, he hurriedly begged for mercy: "Please forgive me, my lord. explain."

"Let's talk, if there is a false statement, I won't give you a chance, and I will directly determine that you are the murderer."

Duan Yu secretly complained, and quickly said: "Returning to my lord, Dugu Juanjuan and I do have some cousins, but very early on, the two of us made a private decision for life, who would have thought that Gao Shilian was not a Something, unexpectedly fell in love with Dugu Juanjuan, and snatched her away. My heart hurts like a knife. However, after Dugu Juanjuan became Gao Shilian's concubine, she still often came out in the name of visiting relatives, and I have a private meeting. Last night, we agreed to come to my place and spend the night together. It's just that I waited and waited, but I didn't get any news from him. During the day, I learned that he was killed. ...I was so scared in my heart, that's why I wanted to run away."

Judging from what Duan Yu said, they seemed to be a pair of fateful mandarin ducks. The corner of Di Zhixun's mouth twitched, and he said, "These things on the ground are all given to you by Dugu Juanjuan?"

Duan Yu nodded: "Yes, he is Gao Shilian's concubine now, and his status is extraordinary, so he often brings some good things to help me. I thought, if I hide these things, maybe the two of us will marry each other in the future. If I go away alone, the money will be used, I never thought... oh..."

Duan Yu told the situation, and he was a little bit heartbroken. Di Zhixun's eyes were narrowed, trying to find some flaws in his words, but no matter how hard he searched, he couldn't find them.

In the end, Di Zhixun could only wave his hand and order Duan Yu to be detained in the Jingzhao Mansion Prison first, and then make plans after further progress in the case.

The next day, at dawn, when the people in Jingzhao Mansion were about to start their day's work, Gao Shilian came to Jingzhao Mansion angrily.

"I heard that you caught that little boy yesterday?"

He wanted to find Duan Yu, but his woman hooked up with a man outside, and even used his Gao family's money to help that man. As a man, Gao Shilian couldn't bear such humiliation.

He was very angry, very angry, and angrily wanted to kill Duan Yu directly. Only in this way could he relieve the hatred in his heart.

Seeing that Gao Shilian was so angry, Di Zhixun sighed helplessly. Gao Shilian's reaction was normal. No matter which man encountered such a thing, he would be angry and wanted to kill that little boy to avenge his hatred.

However, the case has not yet been investigated clearly, that Duan Yu can't die, at least not now.

"Lord Gao, this is Jingzhao Mansion. Since I, Jingzhao Mansion, are supervising this case, as an important suspect, I'm afraid you can't make a decision arbitrarily. Otherwise, we have reason to suspect that you are killing people to silence your mouth."

"Fart, fart your dog, I, Gao Shilian, will kill someone to silence me, if I kill someone to silence me, will I come directly to your Jingzhao Mansion to be an important person?"

Di Zhixun shrugged his shoulders: "It's a mystery, but as long as Mr. Gao wants to kill Duan Yu, or even see him, the lower officials have reason to suspect that you are killing Duan Yu."

Speaking of this, Di Zhixun said again: "Master Gao, since the case has been handed over to our Jingzhao Mansion, you can rest assured that we will definitely find the murderer for you in the end, but if Mr. Gao comes to Beijing like this again The Zhao Mansion is causing trouble, so I can only go to the palace with Qin Guogong to report the situation to the Holy Majesty, it is not a trivial matter to hinder the work of the Jing Zhao Mansion."

Gao Shilian was outrageous, Qin Tian dared to treat him like this, and now even Di Zhixun dared to do this, this Jingzhao Mansion is very courageous.

But what can he do?
