"So, this woman's life is quite tough!" Su Wenqing said with emotion.
Su Yizhao suddenly felt something bad. This old man's words were really shocking. She really wanted to step forward and cover his cheap father's mouth.
Sure enough, Su Wenqing's words caused Mr. Du to look at him angrily, and even Mr. Yang looked at Su Wenqing sideways.
"My wife actually suffered so much before she died? She was so miserable." Mr. Du sobbed and wiped his tears with his sleeves.
"Hey! It's so unfortunate. Mr. Du wants to express his condolences! We'd better find out the murderer as soon as possible, so that my wife can rest in peace."
Su Yizhao said and quickly pulled Su Wenqing back, signaling him to stop talking.
"I also tend to believe that there is more than one murderer. As for whether there are three people, this remains to be investigated."
Master Yang turned to look at Su Yizhao, "Have you found any other clues?"
"The specific details have to be analyzed anatomy, and these students are not good at it. From the appearance, the position of the knife edge should be from bottom to top. We can only estimate that the murderer is about three inches taller than the deceased."
"Of course! The student is referring to the size of the murderer who stabbed him for the first time."
Su Yizhao took a look at the deceased and saw that the woman was quite tall, about four feet nine inches five, which was 1.65 meters in her previous life.
In the Dayun Dynasty, this woman's height was considered outstanding. After all, in ancient times, both men and women married early and had children early, and became adults at an early age.
Mr. Yang pondered for a long time, "In that case, the possibility of being a Jiang bandit has not been ruled out. The first person may be a Jiang bandit. After killing someone, he didn't care about so much, and it is very possible that he took the banknote and ran away. In this way
Come on, we still have to take precautions as soon as possible!"
"Mr. Du, I have something to ask you!" Su Yizhao suddenly turned to Master Du and asked.
“Young master, it’s okay to say it!”
"Did your wife dress differently at that time? For example, did she wear any jewelry on her head? She must have brought jewelry with her when she returned home? Do you think there are too many?"
Mr. Du nodded, "My wife was wearing a golden hairpin inlaid with rubies on her head at that time. It was a birthday gift from me. I was deeply impressed. There was also a pair of flat squares made of gold and jade."
He thought for a moment as he spoke, then remembered something, and said: "By the way! She also wears a jade bracelet on her hand. I see that she often wears it on her hand. It is her dowry, and she likes it very much.
.”
"You remember it very clearly!" Su Yizhao raised his eyebrows. Would an average man pay such attention to a woman's clothing?
Mr. Du was stunned when he heard this, and then said: "Yes! Before I went to the deck in the morning, she happened to finish dressing up! I glanced at it and vaguely remembered that there were so many!"
"What about the other jewelry?" Su Yizhao remembered that the lady couldn't only bring this few jewelry with her when she went out. She should also have a jewelry box.
"Oh! I remembered it when you reminded me like this. My wife also brought a rosewood wooden box with a magpie to visit the plum blossoms, but it has also disappeared. It must have been taken away by the murderer."
"Did you not see the box when you were packing the cage?" Su Yizhao confirmed.
"Yes! If you didn't tell me, I wouldn't be able to remember it!" Mr. Du nodded seriously, "There are some jewelry here. We are going to stay for a while when we return to our hometown, so I'm afraid Madam has brought them all.
"
After he finished speaking, he glanced at Su Yizhao. His face was expressionless, but he always felt that his eyes were a bit inexplicable.
"Shopkeeper, a suspicious person was found on the boat. We have arrested him." A boy ran in and said.
"Where is he?" Shopkeeper Zhou immediately asked nervously.
"Has been taken to the main hall!"
"Sir, why don't we go to the main hall and take a look first?" Shopkeeper Zhou suggested.
"That's fine! The boat passengers must have gathered by now. Let's go back to the main hall!" Mr. Yang nodded in agreement.
When Su Yizhao saw that everyone was about to leave, she glanced at Mr. Du who was about to leave with everyone, and suddenly reminded him.
"Master Yang! If we leave here, there will be no one to guard the place. The student thinks it's better to send someone to guard the place."
Mr. Yang paused when he heard this, "I forgot about it. Fortunately, you reminded me."
As he spoke, he shouted outside: "Li Quan!"
"This person is my personal bodyguard. With him watching, you should be able to rest assured!" Mr. Yang explained to everyone.
"If there are really river bandits on the ship, your lord's safety will be at risk! We happen to have brought a lot of guards, but we can find one of them to guard us. What do you think, lord?"
This is an official who is about to take up his post. If Jiang bandits really come, and something happens to this gentleman, she and Su Wenqing will also be implicated.
But it's not the end of the year, so why was this lord suddenly transferred? Could it be that something happened to the original general judge of Beiyuan Mansion? This person just filled the gap?
"Yes! Your Excellency is the backbone of this ship, why don't you trouble Master Su to send someone?" Shopkeeper Zhou immediately agreed.
"We have enough manpower, it doesn't matter if we transfer one person!" Su Wenqing proudly called Gu Yuan over and asked him to send someone to look at this cabin.
Seeing someone bringing ice cubes behind him, Su Yizhao followed Master Yang and the others to the main hall with confidence.
The stick of incense in the main hall had long been burned out, and everyone was discussing who the murderer was.
"Let me tell you, maybe some river bandits have actually boarded the boat. We'd better ask the boatman to dock as soon as possible. It's safe to get to the shore before it gets dark."
Some people are worried and sincerely fear the Jiang bandits.
"Even if we get ashore, we are still in the wilderness here, and there are no villages or towns. The river bandits are fierce, and we are still at the mercy of others!" someone sighed.
"Oh! I have a blind old lady at home, what should I do?"
Su Yizhao understood everyone's panic very well.
"Everyone, be quiet!" Shopkeeper Zhou stepped forward quickly and shouted to everyone.
"Shopkeeper Zhou, you came just in time. You'd better send a boatman with good water skills to swim ashore quickly and report it to the government! It can also buy some time for everyone." When someone saw Shopkeeper Zhou, they immediately had an idea.
"Yes! The most important thing at the moment is this matter. It would be best to let people from the government take care of us."
"Everyone, please be quiet! Please listen to what I have to say!" Shopkeeper Zhou shouted helplessly.
"You don't need to panic about this. There is an adult on board who is about to take office. We'd better ask this adult to make the decision."
Shopkeeper Zhou immediately threw the problem and contradiction to Mr. Yang. Firstly, it was difficult for him to make the decision, and secondly, he did not dare to make the decision.
"What? Sir?" As soon as everyone heard that there were officials on the ship, they suddenly felt relieved.
"Everyone! I am Yang Fuxin, the new general judge sent by the imperial court to Beiyuan Mansion. You don't need to panic. The possibility of Jiang bandits boarding the ship has not been ruled out for the time being, but it is just speculation.
The most important thing now is to be fully prepared. Even if the river bandits come, we have so many guards and thugs on the ship, so we don’t have to be afraid of them."
