The wife of the power minister's family

Because Jiang Yanxia was murdered, her body could not be taken back for burial by the Jiang family for the time being. After Jiang Shaobai ordered people to take Jiang Yanxia's body back to the Xijing government office, he let the Jiang family go home first.

Before that, Yao Shaoyin had already led someone to question them. After they returned, Yao Shaoyin and Xu Jing met and said, "We asked all the Jiang family members present, and they all said that they were most likely to take action against Jiang Sanniang." The only people who are there are people from the Xin family, and if they are people from the Xin family, they may have some way to get Jiang Sanniang to go out alone to meet them."

Because the deceased was his niece, Jiang Shaobai's face had not been very good today. Hearing this, he said in a deep voice: "Yan Xia is indeed not the kind of person who would easily make enemies with others. Yao Shaoyin, please quickly send someone to investigate the recent events of the Xin family." May I return to Xijing?"

It is not difficult to investigate this. The Xin family left Xijing, and they had to have a place to stay. As long as they find the servants who used to work in the Xin family, or the people who were close to the Xin family in the past, someone will always know where they went. .

If they send someone to check their place of residence, they will know for sure if anyone has come to Xijing during this time.

But, this will definitely take some time.

Xu Jing said: "Judging from the current situation, the murderer's plan to kill Jiang Sanniang was very thorough. It is unlikely that the crime was impulsive. The person who asked Jiang Sanniang to leave the Jiang family alone was most likely the murderer. Therefore, the murderer is someone Jiang Sanniang knows.

But... I feel that the murderer's purpose of killing Jiang Sanniang was not necessarily seeking revenge. "

It is true that vendetta is only one of the more common crimes among many crimes, but based on Jiang Shaobai and his team's experience in investigating crimes, generally acquaintances commit crimes because they have a grudge against the other party.

But they also knew that Xu Jing was not someone who just talked nonsense. Jiang Shaobai looked at her and said, "What do you think, Mrs. Xu?"

Xu Jing hesitated for a moment. This matter was just her guess for the time being, and there was also some intuition formed by her years of involvement in cases.

She finally said: "Yesterday, on my way back to Xijing, I saw someone holding a funeral. The deceased was a widow, and the cause of death was suicide. Some of her conditions were very similar to Jiang Sanniang. They were both depressed people, so After the woman committed suicide, some people couldn't believe it, while others found it understandable..."

Yao Shaoyin was startled, "Ms. Xu thinks this might be a serial murder case?!"

Xu Jing shook her head and said: "I can't be sure now, so I want to check the deceased at yesterday's funeral. The Baiyu Village where she lived is near Xijing."

After listening to Xu Jing's words, Jiang Shaobai's face became darker.

He immediately said: "Yao Shaoyin, please accompany Madam Xu to Baiyu Village. Leave the situation on Yanxia's side to me. I will return to Jiang's house later to find out where Yanxia has been during this time. , met someone."

If the criminal could call Jiang Sanniang out, he must have had some contact with her during this time.

The ones who know the most about Jiang Sanniang's whereabouts during this period are her personal maids. However, they were not at the scene just now. If you want to ask for details, you can only go to Jiang's house.

Yao Shaoyin responded.

To this day, he still feels a little incredible.

Who would have thought that there are so many things hidden behind this seemingly simple case!

After Jiang Shaobai left, Xu Jing returned to her carriage and was about to go to Baiyu Village. Cheng Xiao's surprised voice suddenly came from outside the carriage, "Jiang Erlang? You...are you here for something?" Then, Jiang Yu's clear and melodious voice, which seemed a bit deep at this time, sounded, "I heard my third uncle tell me about the case. I want to go to Baiyu Village with Madam Xu."

Xu Jing frowned slightly, raised the curtain and looked at the man who had already rode up to her carriage. She tried her best not to let the other person hear the impatience in her tone, "Jiang Erlang is not a professional investigator, so he can't follow her." It's useless, and it's a waste of Jiang Erlang's time. I know Jiang Erlang wants to find the murderer of Jiang Sanniang as soon as possible, and we will do our best here. Jiang Erlang might as well go home first..."

"She is my biological sister."

The man on the horse looked down at him slightly, with the corners of his mouth that usually had a careless smile slightly pursed. There was a cold and dark look in the fox's eyes, and he said slowly: "Among the three sisters in my family, only I have a third sister, my biological sister. My sister and I are about the same age. When we were young, I often went in and out with my sister. People often asked me if we were twins.

Later, as I got older, my father took me to the military camp for training, and the time I spent with my sister gradually became less and less. Although we are biological siblings, my sister's temperament is completely different from mine. She is... very kind, even so kind that she doesn't know how to protect herself. She will treat those who hurt her, as long as they don't touch her. Bottom line, she maintains a trace of tolerance. "

Xu Jing was stunned for a moment, and couldn't help but remember what happened when she went to Huaiyin Marquis Mansion.

At that time, the fourth lady in the Huaiyin Marquis Mansion believed that her kitten was tortured to death by Jiang Sanniang. She never had a good look towards Jiang Sanniang, and even often deliberately did things to offend Jiang Sanniang.

How could a family like the Jiang family and a woman from such a family, such as Zhao Shaohua, tolerate being bullied like this? As early as the moment Xin Siniang looked at her, she gave her a lesson to let her know how much she weighed.

Jiang Sanniang just ignored Xin Siniang, and even thought that her behavior was just a child venting anger on others.

Such a kind heart is indeed not like that of a legitimate daughter of a wealthy family. It was not until she knew that Madam Hua really had harmful intentions for her that she finally got angry and started to deal with the matter.

Xu Jing has always felt that the world is so unreasonable and the world often teaches people to be kind, but the people in the world who bully the most are the kind people.

Jiang Yu's cheeks tightened secretly, and he slowly exhaled a breath and said in a deep voice: "And I am indifferent by nature. As long as it is a person or thing that has nothing to do with me, it has nothing to do with me what he becomes. If my sister is like this I would only look down upon a woman with a bad temper, but after all, she is my sister.

I once told her that you can live your life the way you want. You will always have me, your father, and your big brother by your side. We will all protect you. However, she eventually died in her most beautiful years, and I... couldn't protect her..."

Xu Jing was slightly stunned and couldn't help but look up at Jiang Yu.

Previously, her impression of him was all bad, such as being nosy, brooding, and having an inexplicable temper... Now, she seemed to finally see some of this man's sincerity.

Although, she has no interest.

She was silent for a moment, lowered the car curtain, and said quietly: "If Jiang Erlang wants to follow, just follow."

Jiang Yu stared closely at the slightly swaying light yellow curtain and said in a deep voice: "Thank you, Madam Xu."

Cheng Xiao, who was on the side, saw Xu Jing say this, glanced at Jiang Yu silently, then pulled the reins and directed the others to move forward.
