The Famous Detective of the Red Mansions

The red sun is slanting west.

Sun Shaozong reviewed the confession of a pair of incestuous nephews and nephews and returned them to Sun Chengye for collection. He poured two more refreshing strong teas and said, "Next!"

"Uncle Thirteen."

Sun Chengye hurriedly reminded him in a low voice: "The eleven cases you previously selected have now been closed."

"It's all over?"

Sun Shaozong was taken aback for a moment, and then he let out a long sigh of relief. After the whole day of trial, although he did not encounter any embarrassing cases, the disputes that have been constantly resolved and chaotic are enough to make people heady.

Rubbing his aching eyebrows, he got up and flicked his sleeves, and Sun Chengye immediately shouted in a timely manner: "Retreat..."

Unexpectedly, the word ‘tang’ hadn’t been uttered yet, and I heard the drums banging outside the door.

These eleven cases have all been concluded, so how come there are people playing drums outside the door?

Could it happen that what happened again?

Thinking of this, Sun Shaozong hurriedly took his seat again after the public case, and ordered the Yamen to bring the drummers to the hall.

Not long after, two yamen with weird faces led one person in, but they turned out to be an eleven or twelve-year-old boy.

The young man was taken to the court, facing dozens of eyes, he didn't even have stage fright at all. He walked up to his knees, holding a piece of paper in his hands, and said crisply, "Master Qingtian. , Xiaomin Li Xian has a grievance to sue!"

Sun Shaozong winked, and someone immediately picked up the paper and sent it to the public case.

Sun Shaozong picked up the paper and swallowed it all over again, only to see that the boy was not only about to avenge the grievances, but also brought it to Wanping County Magistrate Xu Huaizhi!

What happened was roughly like this. The teenager Li Xian and his father Li Sheng were originally from the city of Dengzhou, Henan. Two years ago, Li Xian's mother died of illness, and he went to the capital to earn a living with his father Li Sheng.

A few days ago, Li Sheng opened a rice shop, because of a short turnaround, he prepared to borrow a hundred taels of silver patterns from his friend Chen Xu to tide over the immediate difficulties.

Originally, the two had agreed to meet in Li's rice shop in the evening.

Unexpectedly, in the evening, Li Sheng waited in the shop, but Chen Xu didn't see Chen Xu bringing the money to the door, so impatiently, he led his buddies to the Chen family.

Surprisingly, only Chen Xu's wife, Chang Shi, was at home, and Chen Xu was not seen. According to Chen Xu's wife, Chang Shi, Chen Xu had already gone out with the money.

In this way, Li Sheng and Chang Clan searched together for three days, but they still didn't see anyone or a corpse. They had no choice but to report the case to the government, hoping to find Chen Xu with the help of the government.

Whoever thought of the case that Xu Huaizhi, the prefect of Wanping County, did not know how to investigate, it was found that Li Shengtong had an affair with the Chang clan, and the partnership murdered Chen Xu, and severe punishments were imposed in the hall, and Li Sheng and Chang Clan were beaten as tricks.

Putting the paper back on the table, Sun Shaozong Yang said: "Li Xian, you said that your father and the Chang clan were both beaten by Wanping County. What proof do you have?"

"Back to your lord's words."

Then Li Xian was not stage fright, straightened his back and arched his hands: "If it were not for the trick, why has my father and Aunt Chen confessed for four days, but Wanping County has never found Uncle Chen's body?"

These words are really in one sentence. Now that Li Sheng and Chang have pleaded guilty, why should they continue to conceal the whereabouts of the bodies? So there must be something wrong with this!

And it was not once or twice that Xu Huaizhi decided that something went wrong.

Therefore, Sun Shaozong immediately ordered someone to take his own famous post and go to the court in Wanping County, Li Sheng and Chang, for interrogation.

After the officer took the order, Sun Shaozong was very interested, put the complaint in his hand, and asked: "Li Xian, who wrote this complaint?"

"Back to the master."

Li Xian arched his hands and said: "It was written by Xiaomin himself."

"But listen to other people's dictation?"

"No, the above are all what Xiaomin thought."

Gee~

Although there are some problems with the format of this complaint, the content is well-organized. If the young man had not lied, he could really be called the word ‘prodigy’.

And Sun Shaozong always felt that the word ‘Li Xian’ seemed to have been heard somewhere.

It will take some time for Li Sheng and Chang to be there, so Sun Shaozong is in the hall to test the young Li Xian.

Although Li Xian is a little unclear, he also knows the life and death of his father. At this time, he is all in the hands of Sun Shaozong, so he is exhausted and wise, and there is no trace of timidity in talking about it.

Later, even Sun Chengye became interested, and took over the narrative test of the young man's knowledge of the sub-collection of classics and history, who knows that the young man is more at ease.

In the end, Sun Chengye couldn't help but sigh in private, saying that when he was twelve or thirteen years old, he never had such courage and insight.

The contrast of courage and knowledge is ignored, but the talent of this young man is really extraordinary.

After about half an hour in this way, two prisoners were escorted in from outside.

The horizontal one was Li Sheng lying on a stretcher. Seeing his stiff bones and blood on his clothes, he knew that he had suffered hardship in Wanping County.

The vertical one was naturally the Chang clan who walked in, and saw that the woman was quite charming, although she was terrified on her face, she was still quite neat in her actions.

It seems that Xu Huaizhi is still a patriarch.

"Father! Are you...are you okay?!"

Seeing his father's appearance, Li Xian stepped forward anxiously, reaching out to touch Li Sheng's cheek, but was afraid of hurting him, choked for a while, and the tears flowed straight down.

Li Sheng was surprised when he saw his son kneeling in the court hall. He straightened his neck out desperately, and said in a trembled, "My son... how can my son be here?"

Li Xian wiped his tears, and said with a serious face: "The child heard about the case of Master Sun Zhongsun who was promoted to the court today, so he wrote a paper to avenge the grievances. Daddy can rest assured that if Master Sun will be involved in the case, he will definitely be able to..."

Slap~

Hearing the sound of the gavel, interrupting the relationship between the father and son, Sun Shaozong said solemnly after the public case: "Li Sheng, this is not a place for your father and son to chat, what happened on the day Chen Xu disappeared? Come and tell the truth."

With that said, he ordered: "Take the Chang clan first, and try again later."

This is done to avoid collusion between the two.

Not to mention how the Chang clan was taken out of the door, but said that Li Sheng only remembered his grievances when he heard this, and hurriedly said: "Master, master, the villain is really wronged and wronged!"

Seeing that he was only screaming injustice, Sun Shaozong raised the gavel and was about to yell at him, but Li Xian hurriedly stopped his father next to him, and whispered: "Daddy doesn't need to call injustice, just tell the scene of the day, adults have their own lessons."

Li Sheng just stopped crying and started from the beginning.

However, he said that he was self-righteous that day, waiting for Chen Xu to bring the silver in the account behind the rice shop, but Chen Xu was still nowhere to be seen by the time of Hai.

Thinking that someone would come to ask for an account tomorrow, Li Sheng couldn't hold back his heart, so he called Zhou Feng, the man who stayed behind in Mipu, and hurriedly found the Chen family all the way.

"At that time, Xiao Sheng was afraid that Brother Chen didn't want to borrow money from me, so he missed the appointment deliberately. Therefore, he played a trick and asked Zhou Feng to come forward and call the door."

"Who knows, after the Chen family opened the door, they actually said that Brother Chen had taken money out of the house early in the morning."

"We were in a panic, and we went together and looked for it along the way. Unexpectedly, we never found Brother Chen, and as a last resort, we had to report to Wanping County Office."

"Who knows that the county lord did not know how to investigate. It does not mean that I had an affair with the Chen family siblings. After murdering the Chen brother, I went to the county office to call the thief and tortured the villain. The villain was tortured but had to be beaten as a trick."

"In the past few days, the county veteran has been asking the villain where he buried Old Brother Chen's body, but the villain... The villain has never had any evil thoughts on Old Brother Chen, so how can he know where he was sinking?"

Speaking of this, Li Shengzhi was aggrieved in tears.

Sun Shaozong calmly considered his remarks in his heart, and ordered someone to bring Chang Shi to the hall, and asked: "Chang Shi, Li Sheng said that he was beaten by Wanping County, but you have never experienced it before. What kind of punishment, how can I confess the guilt."

"Back...to the Lord's words."

The Chang clan said timidly: "The tragic situation of Brother Li's torture is all seen in the eyes of the little girls. It's really... I really didn't dare to try, so I had to rush to recognize it."

For a timid woman, this is also the past.

Sun Shaozong nodded and asked, "What did you do that night?"

"Back to the master."

Chang continued to say timidly: "After my grandfather went out with the money that night, the little girl waited at home until she heard someone shouting outside the door and went to the door to inquire about what happened, and then she knew that my grandfather was missing. "

This Chang's narrative is too simple, and there is not much information for analysis at all.

So Sun Shaozong first asked Chen Xu about the time he was away from home, what his clothes were, and said calmly: "What did Li Sheng say when he called the door? What's wrong with his expression when you go out to see him. "

Li Sheng opened his mouth when he heard this, and Sun Shaozong suppressed it with a sharp gaze.

Na Chang frowned and recalled for a long time~www.readwn.com~ shook his head and said: "It's not the door that Big Brother Li called, it's like a guy in his shop, calling the little girl to talk to him outside, as for his expression..."

"and many more!"

Before Chang Clan finished speaking, Sun Shaozong suddenly asked: "You said that the shop clerk called you to talk to him? How did he call? You should learn carefully!"

The Chang clan was a little inexplicable, but he still pressed his throat and cried out in a man's tone: "Ms. Chen Family, Ms. Chen Family, are you at home?"

Then he said again: "That's how he shouted, and the slave came to the courtyard to answer, and the man asked again: ‘I have an appointment with Master Chen, but why is he so late?’"

"The little girl said that the grandfather had gone out a long time ago, and it was only when the Li family spoke to him outside."

Hearing this, Sun Shaozong looked at Li Sheng again, and Li Sheng hurriedly pecked the nodding chicken at the rice, and said, "It's just like this."

"Ha ha……"

Sun Shaozong sneered immediately and murmured: "This thief has revealed the clues!"
