Tang Dynasty detective

Chapter 151

"what for?"

The corner of Li Canghai's mouth turned up, and he said, "If I'm not mistaken, Brother Zuo was fascinated by someone, right?"

Zuo Hongji was stunned for a moment, then he frowned and said, "That's true, it was my buddy who coveted money and colluded with bandits."

"Wang Buquan told you these things, right? Unfortunately, what I found was exactly the opposite of what he said." Li Canghai rubbed his chin and said.

Zuo Hongji also understood the meaning of his words, he said in a deep voice: "Brother Li, we Ming people don't speak dark words, do you suspect that these are related to Brother Wang?"

"It's not doubt, but certainty." Li Canghai's tone was flat, but his voice was extremely firm.

Zuo Hongji and Wang Buquan had a fateful friendship, so he was naturally not happy to hear Li Canghai slander Wang Buquan so much.

"Brother Li, you can eat food indiscriminately, but you can't talk about it indiscriminately. You say that Brother Wang is related to this matter, what is the evidence?"

Li Canghai had already guessed that he would not believe it, so he took out the previous letter from his cloth bag, handed it to him, and said, "This is a handwritten letter from your buddy, which records the whole story. , see for yourself."

Zuo Hongji took the envelope suspiciously, took out the letter paper, and read it carefully.

His face turned blue and white, and after reading it, he was even trembling with anger.

"This...that's impossible! Brother Wang, how could he do such a thing? That guy must have deliberately framed Brother Wang!" Zuo Hongji said angrily.

"Your buddy has been dead for a long time, why did he frame Wang Buquan? Besides, if he really saved you unintentionally, why did Chang Feng and the others keep it a secret?" Li Canghai stared at him and said seriously.

Zuo Hongji frowned, gritted his teeth, and said, "What is his purpose in doing this?"

"I guess, he is interested in Brother Zuo's family wealth." Li Canghai said in a deep voice.

Zuo Hongji didn't speak, he was a businessman, not only was he not stupid, but he was absolutely smart.

He understood what Li Canghai meant, Wang Buquan saved his life, so he naturally regarded Wang Buquan as a benefactor. Over the years, Wang Buquan opened gambling houses and brothels, all with his money.

It can be said that Wang Buquan's power was actually pulled up by him.

Seeing that he was silent, Li Canghai decided to add a strong medicine.

"Brother Zuo, if you don't believe me, there is one more thing to prove. It is the theft of the 'Snail Jade'."

Zuo Hongji's face became even more ugly, "Isn't the matter of 'Snail Transformation Jade' already investigated, is it stolen by the evil servant, and what does it have to do with Wang Buquan?"

Li Canghai noticed that his name for Wang Buquan had changed, and he knew in his heart that although Zuo Hongji still had some doubts about what he said, he didn't trust Wang Buquan as much as before.

He nodded secretly, this was exactly the effect he wanted to achieve.

"On the surface, the matter of the 'Snail Transformation Jade' has indeed been found out, but the truth is far from it. There is no sign of any objects being turned over at the scene, and the servant seems to have known where the 'Snail Transformation Jade' is hidden. So he directly stole the 'Snail Jade', didn't brother Zuo suspect it?"

Zuo Hongji's mouth suddenly became dry when he thought about the place where he hid the treasure. He only revealed to Wang Buquan about the "Snail Transformation Jade".

Seeing his lips turned white, Li Canghai narrowed his eyes, and said in a deep voice: "Brother Zuo, do you still remember that night I asked that servant what exactly did Wang Buquan do when he was ordered to steal?"

"He...he kicked the evil servant unconscious." Zuo Hongji took a deep breath.

"At that time, the servant was ready to confess, but Wang Buquan kicked at this moment. What was the purpose? I don't need to tell you, Brother Zuo should have guessed it." Li Canghai paused, looked at Zuo Hongji, He said deeply: "What's more, that servant was killed the night he entered the prison, and even made the illusion of committing suicide in fear of crime."

"What? That evil servant...was killed?" Zuo Hongji trembled involuntarily and asked in a trembling voice.

Nodding heavily, Li Canghai said solemnly: "Yes, I have seen this kind of trick of killing people and silencing people a lot, but unfortunately they have exposed too many lies. I have sent someone to arrest the poisoner. How long will it take to find out the truth about the servant's death?"

A ruthless light flashed in Zuo Hongji's eyes, and he scolded angrily: "Well, you are not a good king, I confide in you, but you paid attention to my family's wealth, and indirectly killed my wife Wang! Okay, Very good!"

A sinister smile appeared on Zuo Hongji's face, his fat body was constantly heaving like waves because of his anger.

"Wang Buquan is extremely greedy, and the city is extremely deep. You must guard against it! Brother Zuo may not know that Wang Buquan framed a businessman surnamed Lu to frame him on the grounds that there were bones at home, and he was arrested last night. Get up." Li Canghai touched his chin and said seemingly unintentionally.

Zuo Hongji's face became even uglier, and he said grimly: "Wang Buquan has long been interested in Lu's family fortune, this time it is the Lu family, next time it will be my Zuo family?"

The corners of Li Canghai's mouth rose slightly, and he sighed: "Brother Zuo, this matter has nothing to do with me. I just told you the truth because I was worried that Brother Zuo's family wealth would be taken away by conspiracy in the end. After this matter is over, I will Leave Zhengyang and go to Chang'an."

The meaning of Li Canghai's words is obvious, that is to say, you and Wang Buquan live in the same city, either you die or he dies, you can decide for yourself.

Hearing that Li Canghai wanted to drop the pick, Zuo Hongji became anxious.

"Brother Li, you can't just let it go! Wang Buquan is so scheming, how can I be his opponent? You should stay and help me!"

Li Canghai spread his hands, and said in embarrassment: "If you want to keep the family business, you have to get rid of Wang Buquan. But he is covering the sky with one hand in Zhengyang City. Without evidence, I can't do anything."

"I have evidence! Wang Buquan is unkind to me, so you can't blame me for being unrighteous to him!" Zuo Hongji spat hard, and hurriedly said: "I have an account book, which records Wang Buquan's every A business, including human trafficking, forced prostitution, and evidence of corruption and bribery."

Li Canghai's eyes lit up, and he was overjoyed, this is what he wanted.

"As long as there is an account book that can prove Wang Buquan's guilt, I will help you to the end!"

"But..." Zuo Hongji hesitated, "I'm also involved in some things."

"It doesn't matter, as long as you hand over the account book to me, I will find a way to erase those incriminating evidence for you." Li Canghai narrowed his eyes and said in a deep voice, "Wang Buquan is the culprit."

"But what's Brother Li's plan?" Zuo Hongji said worriedly, "Wang Buquan is very powerful in Zhengyang City, so it's not easy to deal with him!"
