Chapter 57 Chapter Two Sanchun Shop

Let's say that when Li Long came out of Ye Zhai, he found a piece of green cloth and nothing else.Su Gong took the green cloth, inspected it carefully, was taken aback for a moment, and murmured: "This thing may be the key to the murder case." Li Long and Zhao Hu were puzzled, and Zhao Hu said: "Why do you think it's just a piece of green cloth? The key to the murder case?" Su Gong handed the green cloth to Zhao Hu, Zhao Hu looked at it carefully, the green cloth was very new, and there was nothing unusual about it.Lin Dong and Su Ren stepped forward to inspect.Li Longdao: "This cloth is a new cloth, the fabric is quite good, and the workmanship is more delicate, it seems to be used by rich and noble people."

Su Gong nodded repeatedly, and said: "Master Li has good eyesight." Zhao Hu wondered: "Could it be that some rich family lost this thing, and Ye Zhengzhi picked it up by accident? But he didn't want to cause a catastrophe." Li Long thought: "Ye Zhengzhi When Zhengzhi picked up the property, he should have returned it to the original owner, but he didn't want him to see the property and want to take it for himself. Therefore, he was killed and his friend Liang Hanqing was involved." Su Ren smiled lightly, and said: "The owner came to ask for the lost property. There is no reason to kill people with a burden. In my opinion, there must be ill-gotten gains in this burden." Su Gong said with a beard: "Su Ren's words are reasonable. A murderer must have something to hide. You must Find out the following things: first, find out Ye Zhengzhi's whereabouts in the past few days; second, find out the origin of the green cloth bag; third, find out what is hidden in the green cloth bag; So Zhao Hu and three other policemen were left to search for clues.

Su Gong and others set off to return to Huzhou, and more than a hundred people from Lijia Lane came to see them off. Lin Dong had mixed feelings and sighed secretly.Walking seven or eight miles, passing a stream, there is a stone bridge across it, called Qinghua Bridge. There are three or four families on both sides of the bridge head, hidden in the trees and bamboo forests. There are "Sanchun Inn" on it, and the words "tea" and "wine".Su Gong ordered everyone to wait not far away, and only called Lin Dong and Su Ren to go to the inn. Lin Dong smiled and said, "At noon yesterday, Lin took a rest here and drank a bowl of good green tea." Su Gong said with a smile: "Jiangnan There are so many good teas among the people. When there is a chance, I will invite Brother Lin to taste all the good tea in the south of the Yangtze River." Lin Dong laughed and said, "Lin has already been idle with wild cranes, waiting for Brother Zizhan anytime."

While speaking, the three of them came to the hospital, but they heard laughter in the hall.Su Gong looked around, but saw a woman drinking and laughing with three or four men.The woman was about thirty years old, her face was like a peach blossom, and she was quite pretty.Seeing Su Gong, he greeted Su Gong with a charming smile on his face, and said, "This grandpa, is he drinking, drinking tea, eating, or staying in a hotel?" Su Ren looked at Su Gong, and Su Gong said with a smile: "This is but Lu's shop?" The woman looked Su Gong up and down, then looked at Lin Dong, and said with a smile, "This grandpa seems to have known him before." Lin Dong said, "I asked for tea here yesterday." The woman recalled , with a smile on his face, he hurriedly welcomed the three of Su Gong into the hall.

Su Gong said with a smile: "We are passers-by with dry mouth and tongue. I heard this friend say that the tea in Lu's shop is delicious. I would like to miss it. I just want a good taste." But a man in the hall replied: " This shop is not about the fragrance of tea, but the fragrance of Mrs. Lu Sansao." The rest of the people all laughed.The third sister-in-law Lu glared at the man, and said with a smile, "Grandfather, please come in and sit down. I'll make tea myself." Mr. Su looked around at the men, one of them was a scholar, one was dressed as a businessman, and the other was a naughty one. The next pair of oil-stained outfits showed half of the handle of the knife, shiny with oil, but it turned out to be a butcher.The merchant looked sideways at Su Gong, and a sneer flashed across his brows.

Su Gong, Lin Dong, and Su Ren sat down at the table on the right side of the butcher. Not long after, Mrs. Lu Sansao served three bowls of tea.Mr. Su took a sip, and couldn't help praising: "It really is good tea." The poppi summoned Mrs. Lu and said, "Sister-in-law, why didn't you see your cousin today?" Mrs. Lu smiled and said, "Brother Yi, you Ask him what he's doing?" Xiao Yi said with a playful smile, "I miss him, and if I don't see him for a day, it's like losing my soul." The third sister-in-law of Lu raised her hand to beat Xiao Yi, and scolded with a smile: "You bastard, I knew you were uneasy. Good intentions. It made my old lady angry and tore your stinky mouth." But Xiao Yi didn't dodge.Mrs. Lu San didn't hit Xiao Yi, but she stretched out her jade hand to the wine glass on the table.The scholar in that compartment squinted at Poppi and smiled coldly.

Mr. Su said to the butcher, "Your situation does not seem to be peaceful." The butcher was not curious, and asked, "Why did you say that?" Mr. Su said, "When I just arrived, I saw a group of people gathering on the side road of a village. Seeing many villagers, they were not aware of curiosity, and went to watch, but two people were killed for no reason." Everyone was surprised when they heard this.The butcher wondered: "I heard that only one person died, why are there two?" The third sister-in-law of Lu came close and asked, "The one who heard the death was the scholar surnamed Liang, but I don't know who else? Su Gong said: "What does it seem to be called Ye? ... Oh, I remembered, Ye Zhengzhi."

"Ye Zhengzhi!" After hearing this, Sansao Lu cried out in shock, and dropped the wine glass in her hand to the ground! The third sister-in-law of Lu's Huarong was stunned, she was very surprised, and asked: "You...have you ever seen it clearly?" Su Gong nodded and said: "It's a matter of life and death, so you can't talk nonsense. It is indeed called Ye Zhengzhi, and you can smell it and see it clearly." Mr. Liang is a close friend, and both of them died. There are some other Taolin friends who are crying." Mrs. Lu's eyes were sad.Su Gong said: "Could it be that you know that Ye Zhengzhi?" The butcher said: "That Ye Zhengzhi is here to help out, how can you not know him? He was very good, but somehow he was killed?" Su Gong said: "I heard that the government is doing its best. Capture the murderer. Since Ye Zhengzhi is here to help, the government will definitely come here to investigate and interrogate. But I don't know when you last saw Ye Zhengzhi?"

Mrs. Lu San was about to speak, when the scholar in that room asked, "Who are you?" Su Gong said with a smile, "Who are you? Could it be Ye Zhengzhi's friend?" The scholar smiled lightly, and said, "How could I be friends with him?" " Su Gong smiled lightly, and said: "In this way, you know Ye Zhengzhi." The scholar didn't think so, and sneered, "So what?" The butcher laughed suddenly: "In this way, Mr. Without an opponent, that girl Huayu...haha." The butcher hesitated to speak, and smiled mysteriously.That Scholar Wen also smiled, very reluctantly.

Su Gong heard it clearly, and his heart moved: "Miss Huayu"?The word "flower rain" seems to have been heard before, oh, Su Gong suddenly remembered that the poem note in Ye Zhengzhi's room was exactly "Yun Huayu"!It turned out that the woman was called Hua Yu.Su Gong hurriedly asked, "Who is Miss Huayu?" That Scholar Wen squinted at Su Gong, and said, "What do you ask him for?" Su Ren sneered, and was about to speak.Su Gong winked, Su Ren understood, and left the inn.Mr. Su smiled lightly, cupped his hands and said, "May I ask how Mr. Wen was born?" Scholar Wen said with a sneer, "What is my name? What does it have to do with you?" His words were very arrogant.

Su Gong was not angry, and asked Third Sister Lu, "If I'm not wrong, then Miss Huayu is your cousin." Third Sister Lu nodded.Su Gong said again: "But I don't know where Miss Huayu is?" Mrs. Lu said: "I went home yesterday." Su Gong said with a smile: "This Mr. Wen seems to have a special liking for Miss Huayu." Wen Shusheng sneered language.Su Gong said again: "Ye Zhengzhi is just a scholar. He is a kind man. He has little contact with outsiders and has no enmity; and his family is poor and has no valuables. In this way, why was he killed? According to my guess, it seems to be related to a man and a woman. "Scholar Wen couldn't help being stunned, and said sullenly: "What do you mean by that?" Su Gong said with a smile: "Mr. Wen is a sensible person, so there is no reason why he can't understand it. Presumably the government official is already outside the inn at this moment." Wen Shusheng was taken aback, and said with a sneer: "What does the tolerance have to do with me?" Su Gong said: "Dare to ask Mr. Wen, where were you last night?" The Duke smiled calmly, and said: "Could it be with Ye Zhengzhi..." Wen Shusheng said angrily, "Don't talk nonsense!" Su Gong sneered, and said: "Since Mr. Wen refuses to tell the truth, there must be something hidden. But I don't know where the blood on Mr. Wen's right trousers came from?" Wen Shusheng hurriedly lowered his head when he heard this.Everyone was very curious and came forward to look at it, but they saw Wen Shusheng's right trousers with faded black and brown spots, it was really blood! Wen Shusheng was shocked and was about to defend himself, but he saw Su Ren leading three servants into the hall, and the leader was Li Long.Seeing this, everyone was terrified.Su Gongdao: "Mr. Wen, do you know what is the crime of murder?" Wen Shusheng was furious, and said, "You are a bunch of birds, blood spouting people." He hurriedly approached Li Long, and said, "Master Duan Gong, don't believe this madness. What you said." Li Long scolded: "A bold madman, how dare you speak obscene words to Mr. Fu Yin!" Wen Shusheng was shocked when he heard this, and rushed to see Mr. Su, fell to the ground, and said anxiously: "Xiaosheng Wen Ting, I don't know Taishan with my eyes, and I offended you with my words just now, I hope you will forgive me. No matter how brave Xiaosheng is, I don't dare to do such a murder, I hope you will see clearly!" The butcher, Popi and others saw this , all left their seats in horror, stood aside, not daring to speak. Su Gong laughed and said, "Get up and talk." Wen Ting stood up tremblingly, and said, "Don't dare to lie to your lord, this hakama was picked up by Xiaosheng." Su Gong said: "Tell me in detail." Wen Ting Weihe said: "This morning, Xiaosheng got up to read early, and the letter walked into the bamboo forest in front of the house. He saw a bunch of things. When he picked it up, it turned out to be a hakama. The material is very good, and the color is still new. I can't help but I became greedy and wanted to take it for myself, so it was embarrassing not to take a closer look at it." Su Gong then ordered Wen Ting to take off the hakama, and then ordered Li Long to spread his hands on his back and examine carefully, from the waist of the hakama to the trouser legs.Su Gong called Lin Dong to check it again, and there were black and brown blood stains on the trousers.Lin Dong couldn't help but marvel: Su Shi's eyes are so sharp! Su Gong asked Wen Ting, "Where do you live?" Wen Ting replied, "It's next to the inn." When the gentleman and others left the inn, the butcher, the popi, the merchants, etc. were very curious, and followed them away, leaving Sansao Lu very melancholy.Bypassing the inn, one can see a bamboo forest. In the bamboo forest, there are two cottages and two huts, which are Wen Ting's house.Wen Ting led everyone into the bamboo grove, which was close to a wall, but it turned out to be the backyard of the Sanchun Inn.Wen Ting pointed to one place and said, "My lord, it's here." Su Gong ordered everyone to stop, and went forward alone, carefully inspected, there was nothing abnormal, then looked around, suddenly his eyes lit up, but he saw something on one side, he went forward to pick it up, it was a cloth shoe, inspected carefully, the sole of the shoe It was stained with mud, and there was blood in it!Su Gong already understood with seven or eight points in his heart that the bloody shoe prints in Ye Zhengzhi's house were left by this shoe, and the murderer is here!Not long after, Su Gong found another cloth shoe, one on the left and one on the right, it was exactly a pair!Then Li Long was called over, Li Long looked at it, marveled secretly, and said in a low voice: "Your Excellency is so powerful, the two murder cases were solved in less than an hour." Su Gong said with a smile: "Who is the murderer?" Li Long laughed softly. Said: "Is it possible for an adult to try a villain?" Su Gong smiled and said nothing. Su Gong summoned Wen Ting to come closer, Wen Ting was very surprised to see the cloth shoes, and tremblingly said: "My lord, I really don't know what's going on." Su Gong said: "In your opinion, where did these trousers and shoes come from?" Wen Ting Zhiwu said: "Xiaosheng... I don't know, or..." Li Long sneered: "Or what?" Wen Ting looked up at the wall, and said timidly: "It may be thrown over from the inn courtyard..." Li Long With a sneer, just as he was about to speak, Su Gong asked, "Are you familiar with Ye Zhengzhi?" Wen Ting nodded and said, "Yes, yes." Please tell me about the situation of cousin Huayu." Wen Ting said tremblingly, "The shopkeeper of the Sanchun Inn, Lu San and Ye Zhengzhi are distant relatives, and they seldom have any contact with each other. It was only because Lu San suffered a lawsuit the year before last, and thanks to Ye Zhengzhi's help I was able to win the lawsuit. I don’t think last summer, Lu San fell ill and died. The rest of Lu San’s sister-in-law ran the inn alone, and Ye Zhengzhi came to help out from time to time. At the beginning, there were a lot of criticisms, after all, there are many gossips in front of widows.” Mr. Su sighed inwardly. : It’s a good sentence There are many gossips in front of the widow’s door, but I don’t know how many people will be killed! Wen Ting said again: "It's just that Mrs. Lu San is very aggressive. Outsiders say what they say, and they don't care at all. After a long time, no one will talk too much. Just think that the two of them must be married. I don't think a month ago The cousin of Mrs. Lu San has more things to do now." Li Long was surprised, and said, "What happened?" Wen Ting sighed, "Sister Lu's cousin, surnamed Hua, is named Yu. It's just talking and laughing, it's alluring." During the words, Wen Ting seemed to see Hua Yu, and laughed silly. Su Gong said with a smile: "My fair lady, a gentleman is so good. I think Mr. Wen also fell in love with that girl Huayu." Wen Ting suddenly felt his face heat up, and suddenly sighed: "Although Xiaosheng has such a heart, it's a pity that Huayu has no intention." Li Long wondered: "Isn't he looking up to Ye Zhengzhi?" Wen Ting sighed: "No. Ye Zhengzhi is just like Xiaosheng, but it's just wishful thinking." Li Long said: "Who is his favorite?" Wen Ting sighed: "This is exactly what Xiaosheng is depressed about." Solve the matter." Su Gong stroked his beard to think, and said: "The murderer's trousers and shoes have appeared here, and the investigation of this case will start from the Sanchun Inn." He then ordered Li Long to collect his trousers and shoes and return to the Sanchun Inn. When Su Gong entered the inn, he immediately saw Mrs. Lu Sansao wiping her tears with her clothes.Seeing Su Gong, Mrs. Lu Sansao hurried up to greet him.Su Gong sighed: "Ye Zhengzhi died for no reason, and the government also deeply regrets it. It's just that the deceased is far away, so don't be sad. The current plan is to catch the murderer and punish him according to the law." Third Wife Lu bowed her head and said nothing.Su Gongdao: "Recently, Ye Zhengzhi has been helping you in your shop, but has he acted abnormally?" Sansister Lu thought for a moment, then shook her head and said, "Returning to my lord, there is nothing unusual..." Su Gongdao: "The last time you saw Ye Zhengzhi Seriously, when is it?" Mrs. Lu San pondered, "...It was early yesterday morning, when the sky was still dark, and the woman just woke up, when she suddenly heard a knock on the door, which frightened the woman, and she heard that Ye Zhengzhi was there. Outside the door said: "Sister-in-law, please go home once you have something to do, and come back in two or three days." The woman didn't think much, so she agreed to him casually, and then vaguely heard the door open, thinking that he had left." Mr. Su stroked his beard and asked, "Can you hear clearly?" Mrs. Lu San said, "The woman can hear clearly, so it is undoubtedly Ye Zhengzhi." Mr. Su wondered, "Why did he go back in such a hurry before dawn? "Sister-in-law Lu said: "The women don't understand either. I don't know why he is in such a hurry?" Mrs. Su said, "He didn't say anything before?" Mrs. Lu shook her head and said, "No words." Mrs. Su asked, "Did you say anything yesterday?" Has someone from the Li family alley come to your shop?" Mrs. Lu San thought for a while, then shook her head and said, "No." Su Gong looked at Su Ren and Li Long, and said, "Why did Ye Zhengzhi go home in such a hurry? This is The key to the murder case." Li Long thought: "There are no relatives in his family, so it's definitely not a family matter." Su Ren thought: "Or something agreed in advance." Su Gong twitched his beard and said: "I think the matter happened in this Sanchun Inn." Lu Sansao was astonished, and asked, "Why did your lord say that?" Su Gong asked, "But I don't know that after Ye Zhengzhi left, What's unusual about the inn?" Mrs. Lu San was puzzled, and said: "No abnormality." Li Long asked again: "Is there anything abnormal?" Mrs. Lu was stunned for a moment, thinking: "It's no different from ordinary." Su Gong thought: "The day before yesterday, yesterday and today, how many people are staying in the inn?" Sansister Lu thought for a while, and said, "Zhemo has three or four people, but today there is only one person." Su Gong asked: "Is there any record?" Sansister Lu nodded, and then Take the booklet and hand it to Li Long.Li Long forwarded it to Su Gong. Su Gong looked through and inquired and learned: the day before yesterday, there were three people staying in the hotel, one named Lin Quansheng, a man, 40 years old, from Suzhou; For frivolity; another person named Li Da, male, thirty-six years old.Four people stayed in the hotel yesterday, Long Yuyou and his wife, from Jiangning; another person named Nandasan, a man, from Hangzhou, and another person Li Da; Male, 40 years old, from Nanxun; four people who left the store: Li Da, Long Yuyou and his wife, and Nan Dasan. Mr. Su looked at the notebook carefully, seemed to be thinking, turned back to the page from the day before yesterday, and asked, "Sister-in-law Lu, look, Ye Zhengzhi left the shop in the morning, so the customers in the shop must be Lin Quansheng, Qi Xiangmo, Li Da, three people." Lu Sansao thought: "Exactly, the three of them came here at the time of Shenyou, and Lin Quansheng went to Jiangning Mansion, saying that he was visiting friends; Qi Xiangmo and Li Da went from Jiangning to Hangzhou. Go." Su Gong looked at Li Long, smiled lightly, and said, "One of these people is quite suspicious." Li Long thought, "It must be Lin Quansheng, he is clearly from Suzhou, if he goes to Jiangning, How could he come around to Huzhou? Besides, the Lijia Lane where Ye Zheng's house is located is in the middle of the road from Huzhou to Jiangning." Su Gong said with a smile, "What about the trousers and shoes? Why did he go to Jiangning before and come back again?" Li Long was taken aback, knowing that his reasoning didn't make sense, and he wondered: "Could it be that Qi Xiang? His frivolous speech and behavior will definitely make Ye Zhengzhi unhappy. Third sister-in-law Lu, please speak carefully about this person." Third wife Lu said: "This person seems to be a dude The man, dressed in rich and noble clothes, seeing the flowers and rain, is full of color, and can be seen at a glance as a vagabond." Li Long concluded: "It must be this person!" Su Gong said with a smile: "How can you make such an assertion? Don't make wild assumptions. Mrs. Lu, I ask you, when will Da Li leave the store today?" Mrs. Lu said, "He left the store early today and rode towards Huzhou. Gone." Su Gong held his beard in his hand and said, "Oh! Have you ever paid attention to his horse?" Lu Sansao was very surprised, and said: "My lord, the woman once fed that horse with fodder, and that horse is extraordinary. They are very strong and taller than ordinary horses." Su Gong asked again: "Have you ever paid attention to the saddle, stirrup and reins?" Mrs. Lu San shook her head and said, "The women never paid attention to it." Li Long asked suspiciously: " Could it be that your lord is suspicious of Li Da?" Mr. Su didn't answer, but asked Mrs. Lu San: "When Li Da came, did he ever carry a burden on his back or wear a sword?" Mrs. Lu wondered, "How did my lord know? Then Li Da did have a green cloth bundle and a long handle. Sword." Li Long said: "It's not strange for people outside to carry bags and swords with them." Lu Sansao said: "My lord is right, there are often such people staying in small shops, and women never dare to provoke them. " Su Gong said with a smile: "everyone who is outside takes the time very seriously. They often get up and stay late, and report back and forth in a hurry. If it is not for illness, rain and snow, they will definitely not stay longer, so as not to delay time." Day. I don’t know, why did Li Da stay in your shop for two nights? He came the day before yesterday and left today? Could it be that he is sick?” Mrs. Lu thought, “What your lord said makes sense, but this small shop is just a rest. If it is not because of the heavy rain and snow, the guests often stay overnight and leave the next day. When Li Da came, he only stayed for one night, but he did not know why he stayed for an extra day. He was not sick, and the reason for it is inconvenient for the women to ask. " Li Long doubted: "Then what did Li Da do here yesterday?" Su Gong also asked: "Did Li Da go out yesterday? Have you ever seen him interacting and talking with anyone?" Lu Sansao thought: "My lord said this, and the women began to think about it. Then Li Da went out after dinner. After leaving the inn, I said to walk around." Mr. Su said: "When will he return?" Mrs. Lu shook her head and said, "I don't know when he will return." Mr. Su stroked his beard and asked doubtfully, "Is this your inn not closed at night? He When will you come back, you, the shopkeeper, don’t even know?" Mrs. Lu said, "For some reason last night, the woman was groggy and had a rest early. It must be Hua Yu who opened the door to let him in." Mr. Su asked: "Was that flower?" Where is the rain?" Mrs. Lu said: "Early this morning, he went home to visit his mother." Mrs. Su said, "Where does he live?" Mrs. Lu said, "Wu Chenmen is four or fifty miles away." Su Gong saw Mrs. Lu's expression in a trance, and said, "Do you know what you should do for deceiving the government?" Mrs. Lu's complexion suddenly changed, and she hurriedly said: "The women deserve to die. It's just that this matter involves Huayu's safety, so I dare not tell the truth." Mr. Su He said awe-inspiringly: "But there is something wrong, the government will decide for him." Mrs. Lu San hesitated for a moment, and said: "The women don't dare to lie to the adults, but in fact, Hua Yu is not the cousin of the women." Li Long was stunned, and said: "He Who is it?" Mrs. Lu San sighed: "Speaking of it, he is also a miserable person who has committed crimes. He was originally from Hangzhou, but because his parents died early, he was sold to the old bustard by his uncle, reduced to a brothel, and sold laughing by the door. Last year, he was arrested in Hangzhou. A merchant redeemed and became a concubine. He wanted to get out of the sea of ​​misery from now on, and didn't want to go into the fire kang instead. The merchant's main house and the six or seven rooms in the side house were all jealous and insulted him in every possible way. One month ago, Huayu followed the merchant's family On the way to Anji County, I took the opportunity to escape and wandered here. I met a woman who saw him very pitifully, so the woman took him in and let him do some chores." Hearing this, Mr. Su sighed. Li Long asked, "Where is Miss Huayu now?" Mrs. Lu San said, "I must have gone into hiding." Mrs. Su wondered, "Why is he hiding?" Mrs. Lu said, "Your Excellency, I don't know something. Yesterday, at Shenshi, a small shop came. The guest stayed overnight and called it Nandasan. The woman collected the rent and called Huayu to lead him to the guest room. After a while, Huayu came in a hurry with a dazed look on her face. The woman was very surprised. He asked Hua Yu about the indecent behavior. At first, he refused to speak, but after some consolation, he was willing to say that Nan Dasan was a relative of a Hangzhou merchant and had seen Hua Yu before. Yu insisted that he had identified the wrong person, but she couldn't help being afraid. The woman was astonished, and said anxiously: "How can I live like this?" Hua Yu cried: "The only way now is to hide for a while. I happened to meet him some days ago, and I went to stay at his house. According to his words, Hua Yu quietly left early this morning." Su Gong asked: "What is the name of his distant relatives, and where does he live?" Mrs. Lu shook her head and said, "The women don't know very well. They only heard that Hua Yu said that they are in Huzhou City." Where is the rain going?" Mrs. Lu San said: "After breakfast, Nan Dasan checked out and left, looking around, as if he was looking for flowers and rain, but he didn't say anything." Li Long thought: "I think he is just suspicious, can't confirm, just for fear Misidentified someone else." Su Gong nodded and said, "Leave aside Huayu, when will Li Da leave?" Mrs. Lu Sansao said, "I paid the bill and left after dawn. I haven't had breakfast yet." Su Gong said: " Which guest room does he live in? Let me lead the mansion to have a look." Third Wife Lu didn't dare to neglect, she hurriedly led the way, passed through the backyard, and walked along the corridor, Third Wife Lu said: "The first room in the west wing is." Mr. Su The nearby wing room was waiting to open the door, and Mrs. Lu Sansao said hesitantly: "My lord, there are other guests living in this room." Su Gong was taken aback, and said "Oh".Li Longdao: "Let's call that guest." Mrs. Lu San hurriedly called back to Wuzhou. Naguiwuzhou is a merchant, forty years old, with a thin face, no beard, half a smile, he met Su Gong, and saluted him: "Caomin Guiwuzhou has seen Mr. Fu Yin." Su Gong said with a smile: " Because of a murder case, our government has traced the suspects so far, and I want to enter the house to have a look, but I still hope Mr. Haihan." Guiwuzhou Weihe said: "Mr. Su is kind to others, and he is fair, and the grass-roots admire him very much." Su Gong laughed and said, "Mr. Gui is from Huzhou?" Guiwu said: "Exactly, the grass people live in Nanxun." Su Gong said: "Where do you want to go, Mr. Gui?" Guiwu said: "The grass people go to Yixing County to buy. What are some things." Su Gong said: "Mr. Gui is alone, so you have to be careful all the way." Guiwuzhou thanked Su Gong. Mr. Su pushed the door and entered the guest room.The guest room is rather simple, but clean and tidy. There is a square wooden table in the center, four short stools, a Longquan kiln teapot on the table, and a wooden stepping bed on the right side of the room. Things of my state.Su Gong looked around, there was nothing else, nothing suspicious.The side of the wooden bed is facing the window pane, which is pasted with window paper, and the window paper has four or five holes broken.There is a door on one side of the pane.Mr. Su opened the side door, saw a wall, and walked along the wall to the backyard.Su Gong looked up at the wall, saw the bamboo leaves, and thought to himself: The murderer must have thrown his trousers and shoes over the wall since then. After Su Gong looked at it, he left the guest room, went to the front yard, called Mrs. Lu San, and asked repeatedly, but if there was something suspicious, she should report it to the government immediately, and Mrs. Lu was the only one.Su Gong led everyone out of the Sanchun Inn and headed for Huzhou City.Lin Dong laughed and said, "Has Zi Zhan ever found out anything?" Su Gong said with a smile, "It's unspeakable. But I don't know what brother Sanqi's opinion is?" Lin Dong said with a smile: "Where can I save Lin from investigating and judging the case. Su Gong said with a smile, "Brother Sanqi is self-effacing." Lin Dong sighed, "Zizhan made fun of him. Since Lin entered the official career, he spent all day with the literature, and later became the censor, trembling for more than 20 years." Years, how can you be free compared to your son Zhan? Traveling to various state capitals, visiting famous mountains and ancient temples, how free is it? Lin Dong now understands the affairs of the officialdom. What Zizhan said did not know the true face of Mount Lu, only because he was in this mountain. Lin just realized the meaning of it today." Su Gong said with a smile: "Su has already been exhausted from the disputes in the court, so he had to avoid it from a distance, and he can't compare with Brother Sanqi, who is as stable as a rock in strong winds and waves." Lin Dong sighed: "Master Su made fun of you again. In the temple, I don't know what will happen tomorrow. Lin always has thorns on his back, sleeps restlessly, and often wakes up in the middle of the night, dripping with cold sweat." Su Gong smiled indifferently, called Li Long, and said, "Master Li, what's your opinion on the murder of Ye Liang?" The murderer is not far away." Su Gongran said: "This case is quite strange, and it is very important to apprehend the murderer, but the truth can only be revealed if the case is straightened out and the root cause is investigated." Li Long said: "If the murderer is caught, Naturally, the truth will come out." Su Gong said with a smile: "If you just blindly search for the murderous body, you may miss the opportunity. The government thinks that the Sanchun Inn is where Zhechong is located." Li Long said: "But the murderous body has already escaped and will definitely not come back." Su Gong said with a smile: "How can you see it?" Li Longqi said: "My lord, the murderous body will come back? My humble opinion, the murderous body will definitely not come back." Su Gong said with a smile: "Generally, as you said, the murderous body must be kept far away and hidden, for fear of revealing the clues. But everything is abnormal. That's the case at the Sanchun Inn." Li Long was puzzled , said: "My lord, why did you say that?" Su Gong said with a smile: "Master Li, did you ever pay attention to the guy in the inn?" "No. That belongs to my state." Li Long thought carefully: "I never thought there was anything unusual about him? He just stayed in the hotel today, what has it to do with the murder?" Su Gong said: "Whether it has anything to do with the murder or not, I dare not speak in vain. It's just that this person is quite suspicious." Li Long was puzzled.Lin Dong was also surprised. Su Gong said with a smile: "As he said, when he goes to Yixing County to buy and sell, time is of the essence. He is in a hurry, so he stays late and leaves early. Now is the time to go on the road. There is no reason to stay in an inn on the way at Chensi time. After entering the guest room in Wuzhou, the mansion saw that the thing he was carrying was just a flowered cloth package, and he didn’t even see the umbrella he always had when he travels. Isn’t it suspicious?” Li Long seemed to be thinking about it, and asked suspiciously: “My lord? It's not unreasonable. It's just that there are many coincidences in the world, so don't make assumptions because of coincidences." Su Gong said with a smile, "Master Li is kind-hearted and has the virtue of living a good life. Congratulations." Li Longwen Hearing this, he felt ashamed, and said: "I hope my lord will not blame you for lying in a humble position." Su Gong sighed: "No, no, Mr. Li misunderstood. This government speaks from the bottom of my heart. But any important criminal case is often eager to solve it, so it is inevitable to mix it up." People with mixed prejudices and great achievements will inevitably speculate wildly and be suspicious, so that they will create unjustified, false and wrong cases! Your mind is sober and rational, and you should infer innocence whenever you suspect it. It is better to let the criminal go than to accuse the innocent This is truly commendable. Such a benevolent heart." Lin Dong sighed from the side: "If all the officials in our Great Song Dynasty are like Zizhan, what kind of scene will it be?" Su Gong said with a smile: "Brother Lin's words are wrong. If everyone is like me and roams around the world, isn't it true that no one is governing?" Lin Dong laughed: "If so, the world is peaceful, so why bother to manage the court?" Su Gong Laughed, and sighed again: "Yao and Shun are gone forever." Li Long said softly: "According to my lord's wishes, I will send two people to the Sanchun Inn to guard the entry and exit?" I have to work on it, Master Li, to go." Li Long agreed, and Su Gong gave a detailed order, Li Long changed to his official uniform and turned back.Su Gong called Lei Qian and He Wan again, and ordered them to investigate Hua Yu's whereabouts after returning to the city. There was nothing to say all the way, approaching Huzhou City, Lin Dong wanted to return to Liujiazhuang, Mr. Su couldn't stay, so he said that he would visit Liujiazhuang someday, and ordered two yamen servants to escort him there, Lin Dong said goodbye and left without asking.
