Chapter 158 Talents are online and the detective returns!
"Take Li Shouyi into the inner prison and lock him in an ordinary cell first. Then notify the Ministry of Punishments and ask the man who performed the autopsy on Zhang Shizi to come to see me."
Li Yan waved his hand, and Li Shouyi was dragged down like a dead dog.
Guo Yuanzhen came to the side and whispered: "Liu Lang, you said this is such a coincidence, could it be that Zhang Shizi is..."
Li Yandao: "Do you think he is the murderer of the poisoning case and used his death to uncover the old murder case in Jiangnan?"
Guo Yuanzhen said: "Zhang Shizi is from Runzhou, and he can obtain cloud pills. There is a great possibility that he is related to Qingyang Village. Only by poisoning the new scholars collectively can such a major event make the case of that year reappear in the world.
In front of you, especially by the saints."
He asked Doctor Kong who was walking over: "Doctor Kong, is the poison that these scholars have been poisoned not that serious?"
Doctor Kong replied: "Yes, the initial attack of this poison was violent, but the recovery speed is very fast. The initial judgment was too harsh."
Guo Yuanzhen said again: "Liu Lang, the murderer brutally silenced Zhang Shizi, how could he show mercy?"
Li Yan nodded in encouragement: "Your analysis is quite reasonable."
He actually thought of this when he saw Li Shouyi and others playing chess.
Compared with the heavy casualties in Qingyang Village, where all the surviving villagers were disabled, these scholars seemed more like they had experienced food poisoning.
He looked miserable at the time, but his recovery speed was faster than Dr. Chen expected.
And since the murderer could kill and silence Zhang Yang, why didn't he use more powerful poison to create a more shocking effect?
unless……
In the Shizi case, the murderer was the victim, and Zhang Yang died to avenge his injustice.
However, Guo Yuanzhen was a little puzzled: "I just asked them, and it seems that Zhang Shizi is really unwilling to sell the elixir to Li Shouyi, which is strange."
"Li Shouyi's brother Li Sichong is the absolute murderer of the Jiangnan case, and his father is also the protector. With such deep hatred, it would be good not to directly poison Li Shouyi. Involving them would not be beneficial to the investigation, so why should we refuse?
Selling medicine?”
"This seems to indicate that Zhang Shizi is not an insider..."
Li Yan never made any judgments: "We still know too little about Zhang Shizi. Go to the headquarters of Xiao's and Xie's Chamber of Commerce in Dongshi and take a look at these two Jiangnan chambers of commerce. Are there any managers from Runzhou?
Then ask carefully about Zhang Shizi’s situation.”
Among the four major chambers of commerce in Chang'an, the Dou family has become what it was yesterday, and the Li family has been affected by Li Jingxuan's influence, and it can no longer be said that it is awesome.
The remaining two families, Xiao and Xie, were based in Jiangnan, so Li Yan thought of them.
"clear!"
Guo Yuanzhen took the order and went.
Li Yan thanked Doctor Kong and went to Di Renjie's side.
Compared with the more than ten Chang'an scholars gathered in one room here, the scholars from other states were scattered.
When Li Yan arrived there, Di Renjie had just finished asking the second person.
This is a real heart-to-heart conversation.
Li Yan didn't bother him and walked into An Zhongjing's house.
"L!"
When Li Yan walked in, An Zhongjing was reading a book, and his face immediately lit up with joy when he saw him.
Li Yan asked with concern: "How do you feel?"
An Zhongjing stood up and put on a dance stick posture: "I recovered faster than expected, and there is no serious problem. I will practice Dharma Power diligently next! Fortunately, I have martial arts this time, otherwise I would be even more embarrassed!"
Li Yan said: "Are you ready to join the army?"
An Zhongjing shook his head: "No, I will take the exam again next year."
Li Yan said: "That's fine, that way I won't have any regrets."
An Zhongjing was unhappy: "You sound like I can't pass the exam. Do you believe that I studied hard for a year and passed the Jinshi exam?"
Li Yan said seriously: "Of course I believe it, calm down and take the exam well, you can do it!"
An Zhongjing nodded: "Okay!"
He knelt down again and said: "The Jiangnan case is over, do you still want to investigate the Shizi case? I heard a piece of news, I don't know if it will be helpful to you, Zhang Shizi was bullied..."
Li Yan listened, and what An Zhongjing said was exactly what happened just now.
There was no difference in the process, but compared to Li Shouyi's "playfulness", the scholars from other provinces saw Zhang Yang being beaten so badly by the gang that he even vomited blood.
Finally, An Zhongjing said angrily: "Li Shouyi, his father and his brother are really a nest of snakes and rats!"
These words were quite serious. Li Yan agreed in his heart, but was puzzled.
He asked: "Don't you hate Zhang Shizi?"
An Zhongjing was stunned.
Li Yan looked calmly: "Although Zhang Shizi was killed, if he hadn't promoted Yundan to you, you wouldn't have been poisoned and missed the imperial examination. This matter is ultimately his fault."
"But whether Dr. Kong heard the comments from scholars from other states, or you just resented the insults by Li Shouyi and others, it seems that you have no intention of blaming Scholar Zhang."
"Can you tell me why this is?"
An Zhongjing's expression changed: "As expected of you, Yuanfang..."
After giving a wry smile, he said firmly: "Sorry, I can't talk about this!"
Li Yan frowned: "Zhongjing, there is no need to say more about our relationship. I believed in you when I was in Liangzhou, but now you don't believe in me?"
An Zhongjing hurriedly said: "Of course I believe you. Fifth brother has already told me about the Jiangnan case. Only after you try this case can the truth be revealed and all the prime minister's sons be brought to justice! How can you do this for the people like you?
How many people in the world are there who want to avenge injustice? Even if nothing happened in Liangzhou, I would definitely believe you!"
Li Yan was puzzled: "Then you..."
"Oops, I don't know how to explain it!"
An Zhongjing scratched his head, leaned over and whispered: "In this case, can you not get to the bottom of it and accept a superficial truth that everyone is happy with?"
The most hated Riddler is online.
Li Yan didn't have many doubts at first. Anyway, the murderer of this case must be related to the Jiangnan case, and he could always find the murderer by following the clues.
The unsolved cases from six years ago were all solved. Are you still afraid of this case from eight days ago?
As a result, An Zhongjing's words confused him: "Can you explain it more clearly?"
An Zhongjing also felt his head hurt thinking about it: "I can't break my promise to others. I really don't know how to explain it! And you have the responsibility. Let me tell you, the responsibility becomes yours!"
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Li Yan's eyes finally focused.
An Zhongjing actually thought that after knowing the truth, he would choose to conceal it?
Just at this time, the inspector from outside came to report: "Li Jiyi, the criminal police officer is here."
Li Yan stood up and patted An Zhongjing on the shoulder: "Have a good rest, don't be burdened, don't worry, I will take care of everything!"
When he walked out of the house, he saw a tall and thin figure, avoiding others and standing far away.
Li Yan walked over: "Who are you? You were the one who examined the body of the deceased Zhang Yang?"
He Zuozuo nodded quickly: "Returning to Li Jiyi, Zhang Shizi's body has been examined by three people. I am one of them, and the other two people are from Wannian County, Chang'an."
Li Yan said: "Are there any injuries on Shizi Zhang's body from being beaten?"
He Wuzuo was very sure: "Yes, they are all new injuries. That injury almost killed Zhang Shizi. His body is too weak and cannot withstand such a severe beating."
Li Yan recalled it.
When he saw Zhang Yang, he was already a corpse, and the scene was full of filth and stench.
But it can also be seen that this person is an extremely thin man.
The reason was later found out. He had taken too much opium and was now as skinny as a stick.
Li Yan asked again: "According to your experience, how long can Zhang Shizi live under normal circumstances with his physical condition?"
Doctors in this era are really no worse than doctors in some aspects, especially when it comes to making decisions about life and death.
He Wuzuo made a judgment without much hesitation: "Just in the past two years."
"Zhang Yang is still very young, and his body is already in such a bad state. He knows that his death is coming, and it is entirely possible for him to die to avenge his injustice."
"But if that's the case, why did he have to face the beatings of Li Shouyi and others just to prevent the elixir from being taken away?"
"You don't have to go to that level to play hard to get. It's normal to be scared and surrender. After all, Li Jingxuan was still in the prime of his life at that time."
"With his stubborn resistance to the medicine, isn't he afraid that he will be beaten to death by those Six Scholars, and that the Jiangnan case will never be redressed?"
There are more and more questions, and Zhang Yang's image becomes more and more blurred.
After Li Yan asked a few more details, he asked He Zuo to leave and stood there, lost in thought.
After an unknown amount of time, he suddenly looked up and saw Di Renjie coming out of the house not far away.
The two looked at each other.
Di Renjie's eyes suddenly moved away, and then quickly met again the next moment.
Ordinary people can't grasp these fleeting details, but Li Yan is so powerful in martial arts that he can see them clearly.
Seeing that Di Renjie wanted to come over, Li Yan waved his hand and asked him to continue asking questions.
Di Renjie's fat body stood still, hesitated for a moment, and entered the next room.
Li Yan frowned: "Huaiying also knew the truth? Then he made the same choice as Zhongjing?"
An Zhongjing and Di Renjie were not trying to harm him, he knew this very well.
But what kind of truth was it that made the two of them choose to hide it?
The Jiangnan case was revealed and Li Jingxuan lost power. Under such a situation, it really makes no sense...
At this moment, Guo Yuanzhen also came back.
The young man seemed to rush back in one breath, his chest heaving and his emotions rising: "Liu Lang, I went to two chambers of commerce, found the stewards from Runzhou, and asked about the important motives!"
Li Yan said: "Slow down and talk."
Guo Yuanzhen breathed a sigh of relief and said: "Runzhou has two imperial examinations every year, but the scholars only compete for one. The other one must be taken away by Zhang Shizi. However, this person is not very gregarious and rarely participates in the state."
Wenhui, on the other hand, often travels abroad. I heard that the scholars in the state hate and fear him..."
Li Yan nodded slightly.
He has won the top spot in the city's first-level college entrance examination for many years in a row. He is undoubtedly a proud person. Even businessmen are deeply impressed by him.
Guo Yuanzhen continued: "Does Liulang still remember the Qi County Magistrate of Dantu County who was implicated in the Jiangnan case and was imprisoned? His daughter is engaged to Zhang Shizi!"
Li Yan raised his eyebrows: "Qi County Magistrate was imprisoned, and later he was sent to Leizhou, and his wife and daughter were sent to Yeting. With Zhang Shizi's family power in the local area, it would not be difficult to trace the truth about Qingyang Village. If he was seeking revenge for his unmarried wife
…”
Guo Yuanzhen nodded repeatedly: "Sure enough, it would be too easy to investigate the case if we have a motive. The murderer and the victim in this case are both Zhang Yang. He used his death to reveal the truth of that year, but this move implicated too many people. Those
How innocent is the poisoned scholar?"
After thinking about it, he sighed again: "But if Zhang Yang is the only one who is poisoned, it will really not attract attention, and it will be difficult to redress the injustice. How desperate!"
Li Yan fell silent.
Guo Yuanzhen thought he was sympathizing with Zhang Yang's experience and comforted him: "Liu Lang, the murders of the past have been exposed to the world, the murderer has been brought to justice, and Zhang Yang can rest in peace. You have done enough."
Li Yan came back to his senses and said: "This case is now complete, although there are some regrets. This is the truth that everyone is happy with. However, there are some things I still want to think about here. You go and help Huaiying first!"
Guo Yuanzhen was a little confused, but he accepted the order and said: "Yes!"
When he entered the school building, he saw Di Renjie chatting with a scholar from outside the state.
Under the offensive of kind-hearted round faces, the two quickly became familiar with each other.
After a quarter of an hour, he seemed like a good friend who could have a deep conversation.
Guo Yuanzhen looked on with admiration.
He is also a person who easily gets to know others and makes friends, but he is often more calculating and less approachable and easy-going like Di Renjie.
After Di Renjie finished chatting, he walked out with Guo Yuanzhen: "Yuanzhen, what did you and Li Jiyi just say?"
Guo Yuanzhen told about the engagement relationship between Zhang Yang and the daughter of Qi County Magistrate: "The motive is so clear that I thought Zhang Shizi wanted to die to clear up his long-lasting grievances, but Liulang seemed to have doubts and wanted to investigate further."
Di Renjie was already mentally prepared: "Then let's continue the investigation, but... some truths are hard to bear!"
The last half of his sentence was almost to himself. Guo Yuanzhen didn't hear it clearly at all. He shifted his attention and said with a smile: "Liu Lang considers the overall situation, and I am responsible for running errands. Brother Huaiying just asked, and I am studying more on the side."
Excellent questioning skills.”
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Di Renjie shook his head slightly: "There are no brilliant skills. If you want others to open their hearts to you, you just need to keep one thing in mind!"
Guo Yuanzhen became energetic: "What's the secret?"
Di Renjie stroked his beard and smiled: "If I were you, what would I do? If you put yourself in other people's shoes, many things will be easy to figure out."
Guo Yuanzhen thoughtfully said: "What if I were you..."
He watched from the sidelines for the next few games.
Guo Yuanzhen soon discovered that Di Renjie really didn't rely on the first impression of benevolence. He relied on empathizing with each other, thinking about the other person, and carefully writing down many situations, so that he could always speak to the other person's heart and quickly close the relationship.
Suddenly, the person in front of him was not a small county captain in the past, but now a Wu Dewei who had just started in Chang'an, but a capable official in the ruling party.
Guo Yuanzhen feels that this is not an illusion. Di Renjie, who has accumulated rich experience in the local area, has accumulated a lot of experience, and with his diligence and wisdom, he will have the opportunity to benefit the people in the future.
Following behind him, Guo Yuanzhen also silently made up his mind: "I will also be such an official in the future, and I will become a capable minister in governing the world!"
Just as he was making up his mind, Di Renjie in front suddenly stopped and he almost bumped into him.
"What's wrong?"
The next moment, he followed Di Renjie's gaze and found that he was looking at Li Yan.
Di Renjie murmured: "Liu Lang seems to have changed a bit..."
But he couldn't tell the specific details. After thinking about it, he took Guo Yuanzhen to the next place.
at the same time.
Li Yan stood with his hands behind his hands and looked towards Gongyuan, but his eyes were no longer limited to this place.
Countless memory scenes flowed and began to be intertwined and spliced...
Suddenly.
Back to the present again.
Li Yan's eyes were bright, but he sighed.
He thought about the truth.
A shocking and audacious truth.
A good person would go to great lengths to hide the truth.
