Chapter 105: Doubt

The Zhang family mansion was tossed for a long time, and the body was taken back to the yamen by the yamen runners of Chang'an Mansion and placed in the morgue. If the case is solved in the future, the coroner will still need to do a specific inspection.

After leaving the Zhang family, the Jinwu Guard increased its patrol at night. At night, due to the curfew, there were not many people on the street. If you encounter any suspicious figures, the Jinwu Guard could take them down directly.

The next morning, the prefect of Chang'an reported the matter to Dali Temple. After Dai Zhou came back from the palace in the morning, he saw the case reported below.

"This kind of murder has not happened in Chang'an for some years. By the way, isn't Xuan Shijing in Chang'an? Let his God's Mansion investigate this matter, so we can save some effort." Dai Zhou said: "If you find out, just send someone to Dali Temple."

Since the founding of the God Marquis Mansion, it has to be said that Dai Zhou has really saved a lot of trouble and there is no need to worry. When it is necessary, there is still someone to take the blame, so why not do it?

"Sir, the Lord Dongshan Hou is recently investigating the attack on the prince. Moreover, this matter was also caused by Your Majesty's acquiesce to investigate the Shenhou Mansion. Now let's push the case to the Shenhou Mansion to handle it. Do you think Your Majesty will..."

Dai Zhou waved his hand and said, "It's okay, is it all different to investigate? Just investigate the two cases together." Dai Zhou said, "Don't underestimate the people in the Shenhou Mansion. Their skills are no worse than those around His Majesty."

The minor official stepped down respectfully and sent the files submitted by the Chang'an Prefecture Prefecture to the Shenhou Mansion next door.

"Yo? Case?" Fang Yiai saw the file and opened it directly: "Xiaojing, look, there was a murder case in Chang'an City. Three families died in one family, one owner, one housekeeper and one gatekeeper. Last night, there was a fire in the front yard of the house. The coroner's autopsy concluded that the corpse was destroyed."

Fang Yiai took the file and walked to Xuan Shijing and handed it to Xuan Shijing.

"Murder case? How long has it been since such a bad thing happened in Chang'an City?" Xuan Shijing took the file and read it word by word.

After watching, he looked at Qin Bingyue beside him: "Bingyue, go and send Jinyiwei to check what the Zhang family is from."

Qin Bingyue nodded and exited the study.

"The incident happened last night. Brother Fang sent someone to ask what was going on in the Jinwu Guard when he patrolled the city last night." Xuan Shijing said.

"Well, by the way, the prince's affairs..." Fang Yiai asked.

"The prince is not in a hurry. The person who is hiding behind the scenes to plot against the prince is not a simple person. I can't find anything for a while. I will solve the case first." Xuan Shijing said this, but when he heard Fang Yiai mention the prince's affairs, he was shocked. The prince was attacked and the murder case broke out of thin air. Is there any connection between the two?

After waiting for about an hour, the Jinyiwei who was sent out to inquire about the details of the Zhang family had returned. Qin Bingyue also returned to the study and began to report to Xuan Shijing.

"Mr. Marquis, the Zhang family's details have been found out. The head of the Zhang family is a businessman from other places, but it seems that he has not made much money. The one who makes money is the deceased. The young master of the Zhang family is not doing any serious business. He used to do business in the East City, but later he made enough money and stopped washing his hands. He was idle at home, married a wife and gave birth to a son, saying that he had to quit and accumulate virtue for his son. Although this is the case, the reasons behind it are not only

Only that, the specific reason has not been found. The head of the Zhang family, the father of Mr. Zhang, left Chang'an a few days ago with some servants from the mansion and most of the money from the mansion, and went to other places to do business. He was not in the Zhang family. Now the Zhang family has sent someone to other places to ask for someone to notify them." Qin Bingyue said: "This young master Zhang has not made any grudges with anyone in the past two years, so the reason why the three members of the Zhang family were silenced remains to be investigated."

Xuan Shijing listened carefully to Qin Bingyue’s report. After listening, he nodded and said, “Since the Zhang family’s background has been found out, let’s continue to check who the young master of the Zhang family has been in contact with recently. Maybe he can find some clues from it.”

"I have already ordered the Jinyiwei to go and investigate, please don't worry, Marquis." Qin Bingyue said.

After the Jinyiwei returned to the mansion and reported, Qin Bingyue sent the person out to continue to investigate. It was impossible to find the murderer by relying on the files of the Chang'an Prefecture and the autopsy results of the coroner.

"Okay, let's go to the Zhang family in person. There are still some things to ask the people of the Zhang family." Xuan Shijing said.

Xuan Shijing took Qin Bingyue and two Jinyiwei out of the Shenhou Mansion and headed straight for the East City.

The market where the Zhang family lives is very close to Dongshi. Something happened to the Zhang family last night, and now almost everyone in Dongshi is talking about it.

"Then the Zhang family must have done something that is harmful to the world. So, disaster has come from heaven."

"Then you are wrong. I heard that this is not a natural disaster, but a man-made disaster. The young master of the Zhang family was doing business in the East City a few years ago. This transaction will often damage my good deeds."

"That's right, what the young master of the Zhang family did was an unethical thing about buying and selling people. How many women and children were killed by man-made disasters when they passed by his hands? This is retribution."

Xuan Shijing and Qin Bingyue did not go directly to the Zhang family, but walked around the east city.

Hearing the discussions of the people in the East City, Xuan Shijing smiled: "Bingyue, you heard it. It seems that this young master of the Zhang family is not very famous in the East City."

Qin Bingyue nodded: "After all, it is a business of trading people, so his reputation will naturally not be much better."

When talking about the Zhang family's young master's transaction, Qin Bingyue couldn't help but think of himself. Although he was not a human trafficker in the market sent to Yanlailou, the official genius was much more cruel than these people who traded people. He didn't even use the value to save the effort of taking out. If these young men did not have the government's approval, they would not be so prosperous. If the young men did something that was harmful to the world, they could still ask the government for reason, but what about the official genius?

They are officials.

"Although his reputation is not good, it is also a business to make money. Young Master Zhang is not old enough to retire and enjoy his old age. He is always using such a way to make money and refuses to do it? He said that he is accumulating virtue for his son, do you believe it?" Xuan Shijing asked.

Qin Bingyue shook her head: "If you don't believe it, the news from the Jinyiwei is not like this."

"That is to say, so Young Master Zhang stopped washing his hands, there must be some reason." Xuan Shijing touched his chin and analyzed: "Maybe it was this reason that killed him."

"But why were even the butler and concierge of the Zhang family killed?" Qin Bingyue asked.
