A little weak chicken came to Dali Temple

Chapter 6: A Lie in a Lie (4)

"The place where Hu Yide lives with his current wife."

Teng Chong ran away in a hurry.

After a while, he ran back quickly again, "What's the matter? Didn't the person die after being beaten, his spleen was ruptured and he lost too much blood?"

Yeats spread his shoulders, "I have to ask them."

"They won't open their mouths!" Teng Chong died of anxiety.

Yeats smiled, "How do the neighbors evaluate Hu Huang?"

"Do not leave the gate, do not step through the second gate, you are soft and weak, and you are afraid of stepping on ants when you walk."

Yeats said, "Then when you're looking for rattan for quilts, stop by to see Hu Huang's dressing table and clothes cabinet, and then go to see the pots and stoves."

Although Teng Chong didn't understand what these had to do with the case, he ran to see them in a hurry.

Next door to the bookstore, a young man sat crookedly by the window, with a book on his lap, and stretched his arms on the window sill, watching Teng Chong leave.

"Who is he looking for?"

The subordinates replied: "Young master, there is a thin and weak scholar next door. His surname is Ye. During this time, he came to the bookshop to read books almost every day. The books he read were very mixed. They had everything. According to the handwriting left, his handwriting was not good, like a child who just learned to write."

The young master turned his head, "Inquire, what is Tengchong looking for from him?"

"Yes, son."

In Dali Temple, Teng Chong reported the rattans he found and the scenes he saw to Lu Sicheng one by one, "My lord, this woman eats exquisitely at home, but the stove is dirty with several layers of grease. She is a person who is not what she looks like. I sent someone to Chen County. After inquiring, I found out that it was not Hu Yide who lied to her. Crying, making trouble, and hanging himself three times forced Hu Yide to divorce his wife and marry her."

This lie is completely different.

Master Lu slapped the table and said sharply, "Come here, torture the three of them."

On the afternoon of the third day, Teng Chong went to the book store again, "Brother Ye, those two men killed them by mistake, but I don't think Hu Huang's can get away with it. What else do you think can prove that they intended to kill someone?"

Yeats flipped through the book and said softly, "It's not that I can't get rid of the responsibility, but the mastermind is Hu Huang."

"But...but...the neighbors all..."

"Seeing may not be believing, but what about hearing?"

Teng Chong died of anxiety, "Just tell me how this woman ordered people to kill people!"

"It's not necessarily murder, but the conspiracy is true."

Teng Chong was dumbfounded, "Little ancestor, please don't be so impatient. Master Lu is not in a hurry, aren't you in a hurry? Didn't you promise the ex-wife of the Hu family to bring someone up tomorrow? If you don't say how you can close the case."

Only then did Yeats put down the book, "The first layer of lies has been broken, and after finding out the identity of the fainted woman, we know that the second layer of lies is actually a fairy tale..."

"Immortal dance?" Teng Chong was clicked, turned and ran happily, "I'll take the portrait and go to the whore house immediately."

"Wait a moment!"

Hearing these three words, Teng Chong grinned and asked, "Are you reminding me of the third layer of lies?"

Yeats: "Has the Hu family searched thoroughly?"

"Do you mean……"

"The deceased Hu Yide's thoughts were all on his ex-wife and children, so he went to ask whether the two shops have recently fallen into his son's account?"

Teng Chong seemed to understand, but also didn't seem to understand, "Then what will I find in Hu's house?"

"Set up a fairy dance for fun?"

Now Tengchong fully understood, patted his head, "I understand...I understand..." Turned around and ran away.

Next door, the servant whispered to the young master, "Teng Chong couldn't figure out the case reported by the medical center, so he asked Ye for advice."

"Pei Jingning's people are only capable like this. To solve such a simple case, they have to find an expert..."

Realizing what he said, the young man fell silent.

The subordinates asked in a low voice, "Will the young master know the surname Ye?"

Teng Chong ran back to Dali Temple, but Lu Sicheng was about to come down and was stopped by him, "My lord... My lord, the case has progressed. That woman is not the young man's fiancee at all. She is a secret prostitute. The man hired her to perform the fairy dance, in order to lure Hu Yide into a hook."

"And then?" Lu Sicheng asked.

Teng Chong said: "Of course it is to extort money."

Of the ten cases, nine were money-related.

Lu Sicheng asked, "Have you found a man?"

Teng Chong said excitedly: "The firewood for Hu's family and the mountain spring water for drinking are all provided by the man. Hu Huang's has a relationship with him. Seeing that the shop has been given to his ex-wife and son, she couldn't sit still, so she and her concubine hired a prostitute to perform a scene of fleeing from famine and fainting in front of the shop, and then seduced Hu Yide to the rented yard and drank wine to perform a fairy dance."

Teng Chong found the letter of guarantee hidden in the crack of the wall, which stated that the compensation for the innocence of the little lady was 1000 taels of silver.

For ordinary people, 1000 taels is really a lot.

Lu Sicheng worked overtime to interrogate the people, and the three began to fight to the death. Finally, the hired prostitute admitted to acting, and Hu Huang and his concubine were also defeated by Lu Sicheng, who admitted to killing someone.

"But we really don't want to beat him to death, we just want to scare him and make him take the money."

Lu Sicheng snorted coldly, "Mr. Hu Huang, until now, you are still stubborn. After learning that Hu Yide couldn't afford 1000 taels, you beat him to death with the cane used to pat the quilt. Why did the word 'miss' come from? She looks like a weak woman, but in fact she has a vicious heart, and the law does not allow it. If I don't kill you, what is the law of heaven."

The case is over, Teng Chong still has two things that he doesn't understand, how can he be hit just right, how can he come back, and how can he still stand at the door and swear.

"According to my investigation, Hu Yide doesn't usually swear, why did he swear that day?"

Yeats was sitting in the bookstore reading a book quietly, but was disturbed by him again.

She smiled and said, "I have never seen such a job as Hu Butou."

"You mean..." He didn't understand what it meant.

"There are so many strange people in the world, parrots can learn tongues, and people learn from others, so what's so difficult."

"Ah..." Teng Chong didn't believe it, and rushed back to the prison of Dali Temple, insisting on asking the man to learn a few words, but it turned out that he really did.

"It turned out that when you came back in the morning, Hu Yide was actually helped back by you. It's just that before dawn, you squatted to avoid people's eyes and ears. When you came to the door, you followed Hu Yide's kicking and cursing at the door, didn't you?"

He confessed all his crimes, and there was nothing he dared to say, the man confessed.

"At daybreak, when Hood was actually dying, you hid under his robe and supported him, and then cursed for a while."

"Yes."

Damn it, a seemingly simple case turned out to be so thorough, one lie covered one lie, if it weren't for Yeats, even those who have been handling the case all the year round would have been sentenced to murder by mistake.
