How I Became the Emperor - Chapter 216

[216. Chapter 216 I am a good person]

Three people, their natures are completely different.

Lu Qian’s eyes were cold and he asked in a deep voice: “Old Xing, can you confirm that there are really three people?”

“Okay.”

Old Xing took out some bottles and jars, dripped them or poured them on them, and finally started making gestures. After a moment, he said with absolute certainty: “It’s confirmed! There is no doubt that they are three people, and the bruises are almost the same depth. In other words, the time when the bruises were caused is no more than an hour apart.”

“…”

This made Lu Qian His brows furrowed.

According to what the maid said, the deceased Taohua had been accompanying the Marquis Wen Zijun outside the door before she died.

While the two were having fun, no one else entered the boat.

So where did the other two come from?

“Old Lu, this woman committed suicide. Even if she couldn’t bear the humiliation and committed suicide, it was still suicide. According to the Daxuan Law, you have to find conclusive evidence, catch the person, and have someone admit that they insulted this woman before you can put the person on trial and sentence her. “

Xing Laodao packed up his things, shook his head and sighed.

The implication is that it may be difficult to catch the real culprit in this case.

Zuo Xi frowned and said, “That Wen Zijun outside the door is the deacon elder of Feitian Temple and the Marquis. He insists that this woman committed suicide and it is none of his business. I’m afraid your torture method to extract a confession won’t move him.” “

Wen Zijun must know the inside story.

Lu Gan can be absolutely sure of this. The other two mysterious people must also be people close to him.

“What should we do? Take it back for autopsy?”

Xing Laodao stood up and asked.

Lu Gan looked cold and pondered for a while, then waved his hand and said, “No, just leave her body intact and let the people from Mingfeng Pavilion bury her properly.”

“Then the case is closed?” Mr. Xing raised his eyebrows.

“Hmph! Now that all the evidence has been cleared away, dog captain Si Nanyun’s dog probably won’t be able to smell anything! I suspect that Cao He also knows something!”

Lu Gan’s eyes were clear and he looked down at Tao Hua’s body on the ground.

Peach Blossom is one of the eight beauties, and her beauty is famous far and wide. It is the time when she is popular, and ordinary people would spend thousands of taels of silver to invite her to come over to attend a banquet.

After the death of such a cash cow, Cao and that guy were not angry at all, but felt like they were at peace with each other.

This is never normal!

After pondering for a long time, Lu Gan raised his head and said coldly: “Don’t close the case yet! Bring the body back to the Zhenfu Department! When the news comes out, say that this case is a burglary, robbery and murder case!”

“Huh?”

Mr. Xing said, left seat Qi Qi was stunned for a moment, with puzzled expressions on their faces.

Lu Qian said coldly: “The robbery and murder case is a serious case. If you leave a record, the people involved will naturally feel guilty and may be exposed. In addition, I will declare that anyone who provides clues will be rewarded five hundred taels of gold. At this time, I want to see what Cao He will do. Who will he send to seal his mouth? That person must know something!”

“Okay! Leave this matter to me!”

Zuo Xi’s eyes lit up and he said Live next.

He is the only master here who is in the Feitian realm, and only he can do this.

It’s a pity that he was concentrating on protecting Lu Qian just now and didn’t open his ears to listen to the sounds around him, otherwise he should be able to hear some movements and clues.

Lu Qian glanced at the body, bent down and closed her eyes for her, then walked out of the hall and said coldly: “This case has been investigated clearly. Taohua was killed, and she also threw away some precious jewelry. A burglary case! According to the Daxuan Law, Taohua’s body will be transported back to the Zhenfu Division!”

As soon as these words came out, Cao and the others had different expressions.

Wen Zijun frowned, seeming a little surprised.

The young maid next to her looked sad and began to cry again.

Cao He took a step forward, cupped his hands and said, “Master Lu, if something like this happens in our Mingfeng Pavilion, I’m afraid it will affect the reputation of our Mingfeng Pavilion and make our customers panic. How about…” “

Hmph! When Lu Gan heard

this

, his expression turned cold, and he scolded him righteously: “Cao He, who do you think I am? At a young age, I became the fourth-rank chief arrester of the Zhenfu Division. Your Majesty’s favor? It’s because of my impartiality and my ability to resolve cases like a god!”

“…My lord, that’s what I said.”

Cao He’s face sank and he actually endured it.

At this time, Lu Gan shouted loudly: “Listen up, everyone! The nature of this case is vile, and the gangster is extremely vicious. In order to bring him to justice, I will arrest him as soon as possible. I will reward you with a heavy reward of five hundred taels of gold! Who can provide important clues? , these five hundred taels of gold are his!”

The voice was as loud as thunder, and it spread like wildfire, causing everyone around to scream.

Cao He looked a little ugly.

Before he could speak, Lu Gan turned around and said coldly: “Manager Cao, the person who died is yours. You should pay for it, right?”

“…”

Cao Hejian raised his eyebrows, took a deep breath, and cupped his hands. : “What your lord is saying is that I will have five hundred taels of gold sent to the Zhenfu Division later!”

“Very good! We will see you later!”

Lu Gan glanced at Wen Zijun, snorted coldly, and jumped into the boat. above, shooting towards the shore.

Immediately, Sun Hei blew the whistle and lifted the ban and control.

Xing Laodao found someone to wrap up Taohua’s body and move it out of Mingfeng Pavilion. The black carriage on the stage was ready to be transported back to Zhenfu Division.

All this naturally attracted many people to watch.

After learning that the dead person was Taohua, one of the eight beauties, the people onlookers sighed that the beauty was destined to die, and were extremely sorry.

drive!

With a clear shout, Mo Lin’s horse galloped, as fast as lightning, and shot at Zhenfu Si.

After waiting for half an hour in the prison of Zhenfusi, Zuo Xi fell from the sky.

“What? Is there anything going on with Cao He?”

Lu Qian asked solemnly.

That Wen Zijun was a master in the Feitian Realm and was not easy to monitor, so he naturally chose to monitor Cao He in the Gang Qi Realm.

“Yes!”

Zuo Xi nodded simply: “I listened to the wall in Mingfeng Pavilion for a quarter of an hour and found that two people were suddenly placed under house arrest by Cao He and were not allowed to receive guests! Apart from that, there were no other unusual situations. “Who is it?

“

Lu Gan asked.

“Spring rain, autumn frost.” Zuo Xi replied quickly: “The other two beauties among the eight beauties.”

“Let’s go!”

Lu Gan jumped out without hesitation.

Zuo Xi flew over and swept Lu Qian up into the sky, heading straight for the Mingfeng Pavilion.

The moon is halfway through the sky, it’s midnight.

Mingfeng Pavilion also gradually became quiet, and only the light of lanterns and candles, reflecting the stars and moonlight, illuminated the world.

At this time, a breeze blew through the third-story window of an attic in Mingfeng Pavilion, revealing two figures.

“Isn’t it a bit inappropriate for us to break into other people’s boudoirs in the middle of the night?”

One of the rickety figures asked via voice transmission.

“Hmph! We are here for justice! What are you afraid of! Come on!” Another handsome figure said with dignity.

There was no other way. The rickety figure stretched out a hand and pressed it gently on the window.

With a vomit of Yinrou’s strength, the inner lock of the window immediately turned into powder.

Then, the two of them opened the window and slithered into the room like two mice.

“Who is it!”

In Furong’s account, a figure suddenly woke up, shouted softly, and his whole body flashed with cyan energy.

Before she could make a move, a wave of coercion spread out, and with a faint green light, it immediately enveloped the entire room.

“Don’t be afraid! I am a good person! Not a bad person!”

The handsome figure lit a copper lamp, revealing Lu Gan’s cold face.

“Are you… Lu Gan, the chief arrester of the Zhenfu Division?”

The figure in Furong’s tent saw clearly the person coming, and couldn’t help but be surprised: “Master Lu, it seems a little inappropriate for you to break into the little girl’s boudoir in the middle of the night, doesn’t it? “

Put this little thing aside for now! Are you Chun Yu? I want to ask you, what do you know about Tao Hua’s death?”

Lu Qian asked coldly.

“…”

The woman was silent for a moment and sighed: “Mr. Lu, you have found the wrong person. This little girl doesn’t know anything.”

“Humph! Don’t know? Then I will treat you as an accomplice of the murderer! I will escort you back. Zhenfu Division, throw them into the prison! You should also know that there are a lot of vicious prisoners in the prison, and they have not touched women for months!”

Lu Gan threatened directly with sharp eyes.

“Sir, you are simply despicable…”

The woman gritted her teeth and was very angry. However, she saw that Lu Qian had already drawn his sword out of its sheath, with a cold and ruthless look on his face, and could not even utter the curse in his mouth.

Finally, she lowered her head and sighed: “The young man who the little lady accompanied tonight disappeared for two quarters of an hour. When he came back, he had the faint body fragrance of Taohua. Mr. Lu didn’t need to look for Qiu Shuang. She accompanied him. The swordsman also disappeared for two quarters of an hour. When he came back, he still had the special fragrance of peach blossoms.”

Lu Qian’s eyes narrowed and he asked coldly: “So, who are you accompanying tonight? Who is it?”

This time the woman didn’t hesitate, sighing and spitting out two names:

“The chivalrous and gentle Wen Qingfeng, and… the happy swordsman Xin Xianye.”
