Chapter 568 The Case (two chapters in one)
Yan Xuehuai looked at Chai Yan and was stunned for a moment. Suddenly, she realized that Chai Yan must have received important news. She asked, "What news did Liuli bring back?"
"Well, since Zhou Li's death, Pang Zhixia has never walked out of the county government gate. Liuli climbed over the wall last night and saw him."
Chai Yan paused and continued, "I seem to have never mentioned Pang Zhixia to you."
"Yes, you haven't talked about him, and I only know that he is from the Ministry of Justice." Yan Xuehuai said.
"Pang Zhixia is not from the Jinshi list. He is now in the seventh rank, but before he came to the Ministry of Justice, he was a captain." Chai Yan said.
Yan Xuehuai was slightly surprised. The head arrester was an official, not an official. According to the official system of the Great Wei Dynasty, unless this person made great contributions, it would be more difficult to get from an official to an official than to ascend to heaven.
"Has he made a contribution?" Yan Xuehuai asked.
"Yes, he has solved more than a dozen major cases in succession, and was transferred to the Ministry of Justice for an exception. He worked in the Ministry of Justice for a year or two. As long as he did not make any mistakes, he would send the Ministry of Justice to the Qing Literature Department in various places. If he is in charge of a stable and lucky person, he would say that he could not be a doctor."
Chai Yan reached out to pull Yan Xuehuai's hand. His tone just now was too serious. He had to ease up. In front of him was his wife, not his subordinate.
Yan Xuehuai let him hold his hand and waited for him to continue talking.
"Pang Zhixia has an unknown ability. His ears are more powerful than ordinary people. Through a wall, he can hear the sound next door clearly."
Yan Xuehuai's eyes lit up: "What did he hear in the county government?"
"He was in the county government these days, on the surface, looking at the case of previous years, but in fact he was not idle. He always suspected that in addition to the dead prisoners and prisoners, there must be someone in the county government involved in Chen Datie's case. He did find out.
He was sent from the capital, so Wu Zhixian respected him very much. Pang Zhixia could enter and exit the case sect room at will, and even sit in the case sect room for a day." Chai Yan's eyes were bright and smiling.
Yan Xuehuai curled the corner of his mouth; "I really respect you who can enter and exit the sect room at will."
"So Pang Zhixia became more and more casual. He first sent three meals a day to the chamber of the case, and then he went to the street to buy fried quails and put them in the wine. The case was covered with mimeograms.
The day before yesterday, he simply changed his example and ate more and drank more. So he got drunk and fell asleep in the chamber.
He, a seventh-rank official, was promoted from the captain, and his captain came from the captain. Speaking of which, he was of the same origin as many people in the county government, but he was lucky and was promoted by the predecessor." Chai Yan said with a smile.
Yan Xuehuai also smiled: "The people in Fuping County Government think so? It's great."
"It's really good. After getting drunk, Pang Zhixia heard the sound coming from next door." Chai Yan finally reached the point.
It turned out that after Pang Zhixia got drunk, a yamen runner who was responsible for monitoring him immediately reported to Wu Zhixian County. Wu Zhixian took a look through the empty window and went to the next door.
Wu Zhixiao County's brother-in-law was named Fan Changhui. Wu Zhixiao County came to Fuping to take office. Fan Changhui followed him to Fuping and became a teacher in the county school. However, Pang Zhixia had already inquired secretly that Fan Changhui was just a teacher in front of him. In fact, he was the most trusted subordinate of Wu Zhixiao County. Wu Zhixiao often asked Fan Changhui to do things for him.
Pang Zhixia, pretending to be drunk, heard the conversation between Wu Zhixian County and Fan Changhui.
Fan Changhui told Wu Magistrate that the family had found and dealt with it completely, so that Wu Magistrate was relieved.
Then, Wu Zhixian said viciously: "If there is such a thing in the future, don't blame me for being cruel. You, together with your sister, get out of here!"
Fan Changhui smiled and said, "Brother-in-law, don't worry, there will be no next time, I guarantee it won't be."
After a while, Wu Zhixian said again: "When the person from the capital has left, don't stay in Fuping. Let the county school give you a recommendation book. If you teach in another place, the better the better. I always feel uneasy. By the way, have the two people who died behind Wang Ji Teahouse found their identity?"
Fan Changhui said: "I haven't found out yet. The people in the inn said that the master and servant were not speaking official words and were very stingy when they took action. If they said they were with this person in the county government, I don't think they looked like him."
Wu Zhi County said: "It's not together, so why did he ask Chen Datie what he did? His not speaking official language does not mean that he can't speak official language. How many of the Beijing officials are locals in the capital? Isn't it okay to say a few words of hometown dialect in order to hide their identities?"
"My brother-in-law said it very well. I will listen to you. After this person leaves, I will leave Fuping immediately." Fan Changhui said.
Wu Zhixian said again: "Also, don't blame me for not reminding you that the Jiao brothers are not a good thing. You should avoid contact with them. I asked you to leave Fuping, just to prevent them from finding you. Think about this incident, how many people have died. If it is found out, don't think I will protect you. I will hand you over the first one."
"Yes, yes, my brother-in-law has taught me a lesson. After this time, I will definitely go far and prevent them from finding me and will never implicate my brother-in-law." Fan Changhui said.
The above words were dictated by Pang Zhixia to Liuli, and Liuli also passed them to Chai Yan.
In addition, although the case sects Pang Zhixia saw were carefully selected, Pang Zhixia still found a name named Jiao in one of the case sects.
Originally, Pang Zhixia didn't know who the surname Jiao was. After hearing the conversation between Wu Zhixian County and Fan Changhui, he remembered that he seemed to have seen the name Jiao in Yiquan Case Sect.
He looked for it, and he remembered it correctly. About four years ago, at the junction of Fuping and Baiqiu, Huangxian, the so-called three-no matter area, several cases of looting and plundering passers-by occurred one after another. Because it happened at the junction of the three counties and was difficult to divide, he took the case where the victims came from, and the ones who came from Huangxian came from Huangxian, Fuping came from Fuping, and Baiqiu came from Baiqiu.
There is only one victim among them, who is a businessman who comes to Fuping to do business. After finishing his business in Fuping, he set off from Fusheng and returned home. When he passed by the Sanyi area, he encountered a robbery. The person was seriously injured and his money was robbed.
Therefore, there is only this case, in Fuping County, and the victim was found at that time, a man named Jiao, who was also the only witness in the case. The name of this person was Jiao Wenzhi.
Although the victim of this case was spared from death at that time, he was too seriously injured and survived for two days and eventually died.
There are few people with the surname Jiao. Pang Zhixia has no evidence to prove that this person with the surname Jiao is one of the Jiao brothers mentioned by Wu Zhixian County. Therefore, he only told Liuli about his discovery.
Yan Xuehuai was happy when she heard the name Jiao Wenzhi.
Jiao Wenzhi, isn’t it just a second leper?
A recognized gangster in a village ran to a silly area more than 100 miles away, and was brave enough to do justice?
Yan Xuehuai smiled and said, "Although I have never seen this Erlaizi, I deeply suspect that Eight out of 10, nine out of 10 are also one of the robbers."
Chai Yan nodded: "According to Jiao Wenzhi, there were four burly men who robbed. At that time, he hid in the grass and saw with his own eyes that the four men killed two servants of the victim and injured the victim.
And the injured man was in a coma from his discovery until his death, without saying a word.
Because several cases occurred in this place, and Jiao Wenzhi was the only witness, after the three places were ventilated, the painter drew portraits of four people according to Jiao Wenzhi's description, and reported to the government office to issue a sea capture document. The four giant bandits have not been caught yet."
Yan Xuehuai smiled and shook her head: "So these cases have been killed because the murderer has not yet been brought to justice?"
"Yes, it's ridiculous. Three magistrates, three magistrates, and the heads and constables of the three counties were fooled by a second leper." Chai Yan looked serious and it was urgent for the court to thoroughly investigate the prison. I still don't know how many cases there were, but in this ridiculous way it turned into a unsolved case.
Yan Xuehuai sighed and said, "I don't know why Chen Datie went to the Heavenly Prison to avoid disaster. If these murders and robberies were related to him, it was not like him. You see, the yamen had never doubted him at all. Besides, from the clues now, Chen Datie had no other reason to let him escape except owing 180 taels from the gambling house.
Could it be that he was discovered by eunuch Wang’s godson?”
When the last sentence was said, both of them were silent.
Whether Chen Datie is the godson of eunuch Wang is just their guess.
Among the five godsons of Eunuch Wang, one is the son of King Fu. So what about the other four? What are their identities? Are they really just orphans adopted by Eunuch Wang?
"By the way, do you think the family that Fan Changhui handled was the family of the person who was killed by Chen Datie?" Yan Xuehuai asked.
Chai Yan nodded: "I think so too. Most of these white ducks are poor families. Their families need money to help them. When he went to die, the people in his family must have received some money and then left Fuping with the money. Now Chen Datie's case has been brought out again. Wu Zhixian asked Fan Changhui to deal with the family, hum, no survivors are left."
"I don't know where that family died, alas." Yan Xuehuai sighed.
Chai Yan said: "Lu Jinxing and Wu Er will arrive almost tomorrow. After they arrive, I will let them enter the city first and enter the city openly."
Yan Xuehuai was a little sleepy. She had been traveling around for a day today. If she hadn't discussed with Chai Yan, she would have gone to bed long ago.
She yawned and said to Chai Yan: "I'm sleepy, let's sleep."
Chai Yan caressed Yan Xuehuai's pretty face and said softly: "I'll let you suffer with me."
Chai Yan had long regretted that he shouldn't have come out with Yan Xuehuai. The coriander should have stayed in the capital, but was spoiled by his mother-in-law and accompanied by his sister. He would go shopping whenever he wanted to stay in bed whenever he wanted, instead of following him all the way like now.
Yan Xuehuai had closed his eyes. When he heard him say this, his long eyelashes moved and said vaguely: "Well, I like it, I like it..."
Chai Yan's heart was warm, and he fell over and kissed the pretty sleeping face.
The next morning, Lu Jinxing and Wu Ergong arrived at Ma's family.
Wu Zhi County asked Fan Changhui to deal with the family, hum, no survivors left."
"I don't know where that family died, alas." Yan Xuehuai sighed.
Chai Yan said: "Lu Jinxing and Wu Er will arrive almost tomorrow. After they arrive, I will let them enter the city first and enter the city openly."
