after marrying stepbrother

Chapter 305
Chapter 305
After breakfast, Ruyi came to send news to Lin Yuesha that her stepbrother's idea had worked, and the murderer who poisoned Mung Douyan had been found.

"Let me just say, my stepbrother is a smart guy."

Lin Yuesha smiled triumphantly, and poured tea for herself casually. Now, Xiao Qi has a face like that of the prefect of Bai. Although their brothers and sisters are not related by blood, they are like a family in terms of intelligence.

"Ruyi, my stepbrother came up with the idea of ​​finding the murderer this time. Is there any reward for Master Bai?"

Lin Yuesha asked Ruyi to sit down and asked cheekily.

In the county yamen before, there were more or less money rewards for helping to solve the case.This time it was her stepbrother who made meritorious service, Lin Yuesha took the initiative to mention that no one would think too much money for free.

"This... idea is exactly what Xiao Shusheng thought up, but..."

Ruyi twitched the corners of her mouth, and looked at Lin Yuesha hesitantly, wondering if she should tell the truth.

"but what?"

Lin Yuesha didn't know why, so she said bluntly, "Could there be some deviation?"

"there is."

Since the other party asked, Ruyi didn't hide it anymore.The method is useful. The murderer learned that Mung Douyan had a booklet recording enemies, and indeed went to Mung Douyan's study at night to search.

"Let me just say, my eldest brother is a smart man."

Lin Yuesha repeated again with a proud face.

If Xiao Qi hadn't come up with this idea, the cases in Changqing Academy would not be easy to hear, as they are all famous scholars, wronging one person would definitely ruin his career, so even the prefect of Bai would act cautiously.

Ruyi was embarrassed, and didn't want to hear Lin Yuesha's wife selling melons anymore, so she said quickly, "The murderer went to find the brochure, but there were seven people who went to find the brochure last night."

That is to say, these seven people have serious conflicts with Mung Douyan, and they are afraid that they will be recorded in the small notebook, and feel guilty.

Lin Yuesha: ...

She took back what she said just now, her face hurting.

"Then how did you find the murderer in the end? Was it one of these seven people?"

Taking a deep breath, Lin Yuesha calmed down and continued to ask.

Don't blame the stepbrother, it's Mung Bean Eye's bad character and too many enemies.

"The official messenger really found the record booklet in Scholar Qin's study."

Indeed, there were seven people in all, the seven who tried to steal the booklet in the middle of the night.

"There really is..."

Lin Yuesha was surprised, and signaled Ruyi not to be tricky, and continued to talk.

"Miss Lin, there are seven names recorded in the booklet, including Sun You. Unexpectedly, Sun You still owes Qin Shusheng 20 taels of silver."

However, among the seven names in the book, six of them were recorded as the reason for their feud with Mung Douyan, and only one was left blank.

"It's not so much that he has a grudge against him, it's better to say that that person likes to spy on privacy and catch people."

Among them, two scholars bribed Mr., and were recorded, one stole, and the rest went to the gambling hall in private, and he met him.

Recording it in the notebook is convenient for threatening to use these people in the future.

"Could it be that the one with only his name on it is the murderer?"

Lin Yuesha looked at Ruyi and guessed.

Since I didn't write the other party's pigtails, I'm afraid it's very secretive.

"Correct."

Ruyi glanced at Lin Yuesha approvingly, thinking that Ms. Lin was the real smart person.

"That scholar is called Sun Zhang, and he is somewhat related to Sun You. He and Qin Shusheng are good friends."

The relationship between the two has always been good, and they ate and drank together occasionally. No one in the academy thought that the murderer was this Sun Zhang.

"Then why?"

If it weren't for the deep hatred, Sun Zhang didn't have to kill Mung Douyan and put arsenic on it, but he would have taken the risk to put Mung Douyan to death.

"At the beginning, Sun Zhang didn't say the reason, but our master beat him fifty times, and Sun Zhang couldn't bear it, so he confessed honestly."

Sun Zhang has a pretty cousin in the country. He and Mung Douyan went to the countryside to relax and met her cousin.

"If you want this servant to say, that Qin Shu was not wronged when he died. He fell in love with Sun Zhang's cousin, so he tricked the girl with words, saying that he wanted to come to propose marriage."

In this way, cousin Sun Zhang is convinced of Mung Douyan's rhetoric, and after she is happy with him, she has a secret knot.

Mung Douyan not only refused to admit it, but also scolded the woman for being flirtatious. No, Sun Zhang's cousin couldn't bear the blow, and couldn't hide her stomach from others, so she threw herself into the river in despair.

After Sun Zhang learned about it, he pretended not to know on the surface, but secretly planned revenge all the time.

"So, when I delivered the food, I was followed by Sun Zhang."

Lin Yuesha nodded, Mung Douyan took it upon himself, but unfortunately he committed a crime and cost two lives. Sun Zhang and his cousin were both innocent people.

Daqi's law has a lot of loopholes, killing people pays for their lives, and Sun Zhang can't escape the end of being beheaded even if he wants to avenge his cousin.

After Ruyi left, Lin Yuesha sat on a chair and meditated.

"Miss, what's wrong with you?"

Sensing that the atmosphere was not right, Qing Xing made a gesture to silence Qi'er, and asked cautiously.

"Qing Xing, I just don't think it's fair."

Sun Zhang's murder was wrong, there's nothing to say about it, but if Mung Douyan indirectly killed a person, isn't there any guilt at all?

People like Mung Douyan, no matter in Daqi or modern times, are all scumbags.

It's just that in modern times, after meeting a scumbag, a woman can turn around gorgeously and go to work hard for her own life, but in Daqi, the fate of a woman is so miserable. Faced with foul language, she can only choose to die.

And the culprit who caused the tragedy often lived a happy life, because not many people like Sun Zhang would choose revenge.

"Little sister."

Xiao Qi entered the door and saw Lin Yuesha still bowed her head in a daze, waving her hands at Qing Xing and Qi'er, the two nodded and went out together, closing the door gently by the way.

"Big brother?"

Lin Yuesha suddenly raised her head when she heard the movement, "Brother, why are you back?"

The homicide case that happened in Changqing Academy, even if the Bai Zhifu deliberately concealed it, he still couldn't hide it from the people. It took only one night, and all the servants in the family knew about it.

"Hugh Mu."

In the morning, the scholars were all called to the yamen for trial, and they had no intention of studying. Seeing this, the master simply asked everyone to take a rest for a day.

"Little sister, your face is not quite right."

Before Xiao Qi entered the door, he heard the conversation between Lin Yuesha and Qing Xing. He saw Lin Yuesha's careful thinking and considered how to enlighten him.

"Yes, I'm just a little uncomfortable."

Lin Yuesha didn't fight for anyone specifically, but thought this era was sad. After all, she was a modern person, and she didn't agree with Daqi's superiority over men and women.

Although I disagree, in this specific environment, I can only change myself and blend in, so as not to appear different.

"Brother, do you also think that Cousin Sun Zhang is at fault, if you don't despise yourself, there will be no bad consequences?"

Lin Yuesha stood up, walked in front of Xiao Qi, and asked seriously, she wanted to know her elder brother's opinion.
