Yan Cigui.

"Dead?" Zhu Cheng was dazzled with shock.

Obviously this Li Yuanfa, staring at them with wide eyes, how could he die?

But the truth cannot be faked.

"What should I do?" Zhu Cheng said tremblingly, "I pushed him like this, and I didn't mean to hurt him, I..."

Lady Wang held his hand tightly, gritted her teeth and said, "Master, now is not the time to panic!"

Seeing that Zhu Cheng was still like a chicken without a head, Mrs. Wang said word by word: "Master, this person has bad intentions!
He played such a play with that surnamed Gao in order to embezzle our gold bricks.

I swear to you, the godfather made it clear, he watched the two boxes of gold bricks buried with his own eyes, and he would never go wrong. "

"Maybe it was replaced by someone else..." Zhu Cheng was confused, "It's been so many years, who knows..."

"Impossible," said Mrs. Wang, "Godfather just borrowed a place, and even the owner of the house at that time didn't know that there was something buried in the ground, and the foundation has not been dug all these years.

Both Gao An and Jing Dabao came from other places, how could they know about this, and what forbidden books were prepared in advance to deceive Li Yuanfa?

This is Li Yuanfa, who, after hearing the news from you, played such a play with Gao An.

It's not enough to get the gold brick, but he even came to blackmail you. This kind of bastard deserves his death. "

"Deserved, deserved..." Zhu Cheng repeated, and only in this way can he not be overwhelmed by the panic and self-blame of killing, "He deserves to die, he deserves to die!"

Seeing that Zhu Cheng calmed down slowly, Mrs. Wang discussed again: "We have to get rid of Li Yuanfa."

"How to deal with it?" Zhu Cheng asked, "Report to the official?"

After asking, he himself vetoed it first.

You can't report to the official, absolutely not.

"Throw it out, he just fell to his head and died," Mrs. Wang said. "When it gets dark and the carriage comes to pick you up, we will throw him out. We don't know about it here. Being followed by..."

Zhu Cheng was shocked and motioned for his mother-in-law to open the door and look around.

The mother-in-law opened a gap, probed out to look left and right, but found no suspicious person, and closed the door again.

She didn't realize that there were two people hiding in a hidden corner not far away.

They were the yamen servants who were ordered to follow Li Yuanfa.

Seeing Li Yuanfa entering the house and not coming out for a long time, the two men were muttering in their stomachs.

It was not until the second watch, when the rain poured down, that they saw the door of the house opened.

A carriage stopped at the door for a while, and then left quickly.

The two exchanged a look, one continued to watch, and the other ran with the car.

Not daring to follow too closely, and because it was difficult to walk in rainy weather, the yamen servant followed all the way to an alley, and the carriage disappeared, and he stomped his feet annoyed.

Observe carefully, there seems to be some shadow on the ground ahead.

Seems like a person?
The yamen servant walked over and took a closer look, his face turned pale with fright!

Li Yuanfa stared at him.

From this posture, one can see that he is out of breath!

In the middle of the second watch, Shan Shen, who hadn't slept soundly yet, was yelled out of bed again.

"Come on, what's the matter?" He asked while dressing.

"Li Yuanfa was murdered and his body was thrown in the alley."

Shan Shen groaned, rubbed his shoulders, his muscles tensed.

After packing up simply, Shan Shen hurriedly wrapped up his coir raincoat and set off with his hands.

"You and others, can people be killed?"

"Has Zuo rushed over?"

"Are you sure it was the family in Liuguo Hutong who did it? Have you surrounded it?"

"What's the origin of that family? Why did Li Yuanfa seek him?"

Shan Shen asked while walking, stepped out of the yamen, he paused a little.

Do we have to invite the Clay Bodhisattva?

Fu Guogong came to sit in the town, and he looked good-looking. If something happened to the case, he would make a noise, which might not be good.

But after all, it was midnight, and it was raining heavily...

A yamen servant replied: "I still don't know who lives in that house. After Li Yuanfa left the yamen in the morning, he found the relatives of the Duke of the State and said a few words, then went to Liuguo Hutong, and stayed there until he was caught A carriage was brought out..."

Hearing this, Shan Shen didn't care about the rain and night, and went to Fuguo's mansion to invite someone.

When Xu Jian arrived at the alley, it was almost three o'clock.

Wu Zuo did the most basic survey, but because of heavy rain, he ordered Li Yuanfa to be transported back to the Yamen first.

Shan Shen stood aside, looked around.

"When the rain washes away, the evidence is much less," said Shan Shen and Xu Jian, "the ruts are gone."

Xu Jian lowered his eyes and said calmly: "Anyway, there are witnesses. The yamen servant saw Li Yuanfa enter the house with his own eyes, and another carriage appeared here."

Shan Shen lowered his voice and asked: "I heard that he asked the Duke's personal attendant about something today?"

"I told you," Xu Jian answered calmly, "We were going to fish with Li Yuanfa, but he couldn't find Zhu Cheng. I happened to know, and I told him when he came to ask. Unexpectedly, he was pointed to Dead road."

Shan Shen laughed dryly.

In principle, the Duke of the country is right to do so.

Furthermore, no one expected that Li Yuanfa would die.

They let Li Yuan out for Zhu Cheng...

and many more?

Shan Shen's face was tense.

With a stiff face, he asked Xu Jian: "You mean, the man in that house is Master Zhu Si?"

"Master Shan still doesn't know?" Xu Jian asked back, and added, "I saw him from a distance outside Liuguo Hutong, and he seems to be familiar with that area, so let him try his luck... "

Shan Shen understood.

Li Yuanfa's luck was terrible.

"This matter..." Shan Shen thought about it, and said to Xu Jian with a suppressed voice, "It's definitely not appropriate to let people out of the yamen. It's good that nothing happened, but something happened..."

Shan Shen sighed, his luck was not so good either.

"If Master Zhu Si is really in the house, you have to go there in person." Shan Shen said.

Xu Jian nodded slightly: "It should be, the Holy Majesty asked me to come to Shuntian Mansion for this reason."

"Let's go together," Shan Shen wiped the moisture from his face, "It's raining so heavily, so our people will follow, otherwise, he will have to stay here in the rain until dawn."

Holding an umbrella, Xu Jian walked slowly.

The murder of Li Yuanfa was not within his plan, it happened suddenly and disrupted many of his original thoughts.

However, with the wet wind blowing, he didn't feel that surprised.

Not everything can be changed.

There are still some things that are bound to happen and destined to happen, even if they are changed in a different way.

This he had known earlier.

Lin Yunyan said that Chen Gui died alone in the alley that year.

In a remote alley, in the dead of night, no one knew what happened to Chen Gui.

Even if I later heard about the gold hidden in Laoshi Lane and that Chen Gui went to Li Yuanfa and Xi Dong's family to beg for gold bricks before his death, it cannot be confirmed that his death was murdered rather than accidental.

In such a comparison, Li Yuanfa is luckier.

He didn't lie alone until dawn, and the servants who followed him could prove that he was murdered and thrown here.

Xu Xu let out a breath, tapped her right toe, and Xu Jian moved her right leg a little.

Relieved a little from the discomfort, he followed Shan Shen and headed towards Liuguo Hutong.

I will try my best this week to make up for what I owe.
