Pretending to be jealous in the arms of Dali Temple

After the chaos, Wan Yan refolded the hill-shaped quilt, straightened the hair messed up by Su Jizhi, and lay down on the quilt with a smile and looked at Su Jizhi.

"My lord, come on, let's continue!"

"No." The meat in his hand flew away, and Su Ji was so angry that the good atmosphere just now was ruined.

Not only did he not get a kiss, Wan Yan saw his expression at that time, he was the one who took advantage of her.

Ugh.

Su Ji's pain.

Turning her back to Wan Yan: "I'm sleepy."

Wan Yan suppressed her laughter, and reached out to poke Su Jizhi's lower back: "My lord, you didn't ask me a question just now."

"anymore question?"

"What would I do if I wanted to get rich and kill myself!"

Su Jizhi hugged his shoulders without moving, but his ears perked up: "Speak."

"My lord has to turn around, so I'll say it."

Su Jizhi turned over and hummed: "I'm not compromising, I'm just curious."

"Yes, my lord is looking at me." Wan Yan held up her little face seriously, and stared into Su Jizhi's eyes.

"I have the same thoughts as adults. I have been stuck in Zhao Da's behavior and behavior. Now I jump out and think that Zhao Da is either smart or blamed."

"We have just analyzed this point."

"Let's talk about cleverness first. He and Zhao Yi have arranged everything, and the money has been hidden. Everyone must think that he will not kill people on his own boat, because that would be too suspicious."

"Well, so the Zhao brothers did the opposite. This is their excellence."

"Yes, but if Zhao Da is innocent, the murderer who did this case is deliberately approaching Zhao Da to make him take the blame."

"That's how I think."

"We met the boatman and his wife today, and the people who drank with Zhao Da. They gave different opinions to Zhao Da. My lord, what do you think?"

Su Jizhi frowned and thought about it for a moment, but he couldn't help but want to discuss the case with Wan Yan.

He leaned against the head of the bed again, put his hands behind his head, and said, "We contact these people out of our own interests, and I think Zhao Da's evaluation is pertinent."

Wan Yan was stunned, thinking carefully about Su Jizhi's words: "My lord believes them?"

Su Jizhi chuckled: "There's no need for the boatmen to talk about it, they don't know our identities. There must be something to say. As for the person who drank with Zhao Da, he should also reveal his true feelings."

Su Jizhi turned sideways: "Think about it, they and Zhao Da are just drinking buddies, so let's tell the truth. The case has dragged on for so long, and they have seen it very clearly."

"That's why they can come up with the idea that the Zhao brothers might conspire?"

Su Jizhi nodded.

Wan Yan moved closer and asked softly, "My lord, this case is murder for money, how much money did Zhang Kairong bring?"

With a sullen face, Su Jizhi slapped twice.

Wan Yan lowered her voice in surprise: "So many? 2000 taels?"

Su Jizhi frowned, thinking that his family didn't have these, and he was still in debt.

Nodding sadly, Su Jizhi said: "What I just said just now reminds me of another doubtful point. If the murderer is not Zhao Da, how could he know that Zhang Kairong is carrying so much money?"

Wan Yan and Su Jizhi thought differently, "My lord, since you are doing business and traveling far away, why don't you bring bank notes, but take so much money?"

Su Jizhi looked at Wan Yan quietly, and frowned, "Tomorrow we want to meet Zhang Kairong's companion, and we have to go to Sanhe Porcelain Workshop. Tomorrow we will mainly investigate Zhang Kairong."

Wan Yan obeyed Su Jizhi's arrangement, and listened to him ask earnestly, "Wan Yan, I'm still a little confused. Why would anyone call someone by their first name?"

Wan Yan raised her eyebrows, "Who is your lord referring to?"

"Zhang Xiuhua, have you noticed? Zhang Xiuhua calls Zhang Kairong by his first name."

Wan Yan thought for a moment, then opened her eyes wide in surprise, "My lord, sure enough, why?"

"This is a question of mine." Su Jizhi didn't understand, so he waited for Wan Yan to give him an answer.

"I don't know, I guess...too familiar? But even if I'm familiar with you, I won't call you by his name directly."

Su Jizhi tilted his head: "Miao Hong and I don't distinguish between you and me, but Zhang Xiuhua and Zhang Kairong have an extraordinary relationship. As a woman, can she directly call Zhang Kairong?"

Wan Yan also couldn't figure it out: "Besides being familiar with each other, I can't think of a second reason, and Zhang Xiuhua and Zhang Kairong are really strange, they have such a good relationship, why didn't they get married?"

"There is also Zhang Xiuhua's missing daughter. It is also the focus of our investigation. Why didn't Zhang Xiuhua look for her?" Su Jizhi was always entangled in this point.

"My lord, is there a record of this missing girl in the file?"

Su Jizhi spread his hands regretfully: "If the yamen servant hadn't mentioned it, I don't think anyone would have told us."

"Is this related to Zhang Kairong's murder?"

"It's hard to say, so Zhang Xiuhua's behavior is very strange. Her daughter is missing. She came to the government to not look for her daughter, but to ask about the progress of Zhang Kairong's case, and she was focused on arresting Zhao Da. This is unreasonable."

"No wonder my lord said that the case is getting more and more interesting, but it's not really interesting, just these few people have their own thoughts."

Su Jizhi snorted comfortably, and said lightly: "I remember that the file records that Zhang Kairong set off from Zhang Xiuhua's house to board the ship that day, so we have to visit Zhang Xiuhua's neighbors too."

"Sanhe Porcelain Workshop, Zhang Xiuhua's neighbor, and Zhang Kairong's companion, what's his name? Shall we go tomorrow?"

"Ruan Jingshan." Su Jizhi muffled his voice, not knowing what to think.

"Okay, it looks like we will be very busy tomorrow. By the way, there is one more important question. My lord, what happened to the case recorded in the file? You never told me."

Su Jizhi chuckled: "I said I was afraid that you had a preconceived idea. Now that you have contacted the suspect and interviewed relevant clues, I will tell you now."

Su Jizhiban sat up, leaned against the head of the bed, and reached out to Wanyan with one hand.

Wan Yan smiled and imitated the posture of an adult and leaned against the head of the bed, raising her hand to hold Su Jizhi.

The two were held hands by the mountains, Su Jizhi said: "On the second day of April, Zhang Kairong brought 2000 taels of silver to buy porcelain in Bao'an Mansion, and he left home at Yinshi that night. This is Zhang Xiuhua's confession."

Wan Yan couldn't see the adult's eyes, so she pricked up her ears.

"But at that time, Zhang Xiuhua received a notice from the government that Zhang Kairong was killed, and the 2000 taels of silver disappeared."

"The boatman is Zhao Da, holding a bloody rope in his hand, Zhang Kairong was strangled to death?" Wan Yan connected the known clues together, and then said.

"That's right, so Zhao Da was arrested as a suspect, but not only did he not admit it, but there are also many unreasonable contradictions in the clues."

Wan Yan thought silently in the dark: "If this is the case, Zhao Da is the most suspicious, but we have visited around, and others are not completely suspicious."

Su Jizhi let out a chuckle, and lazily stretched his body: "That is to say, Wan Yan is becoming more and more like a wise yamen catcher."

Wan Yan put her head on the pillow: "I am an adult because I praise me, I like the name of this catcher, I really like it..."

I really like that the voice is getting quieter, and it will fall into silence after a while.

Su Jizhi listened to the little girl's even and steady breathing, and a smile appeared on the corner of his lips...
