Chapter 164: Go home and inherit billions of assets
Cui Mansion has a banquet.
Cui Xiuye was a little moved when he saw Li Yan and Qiu Shenji staying.
If it was just a casual acquaintance, and for the sake of Mr. Cui's sake, he could at most offer incense and then leave.
Only those who are truly willing to see the deceased off will stay and show their sincerity.
Therefore, Li Yan and Qiu Shenji chose to eat, and Cui Xiuye stepped forward again: "Li Jiyi, I appreciate it!"
Li Yan returned the gift: "Cui Jiyi, I deeply despise what your brother did in the Jiangnan case, but the deceased is the greatest, and the grudge is over. We are both internal guards, and I am willing to give him a ride."
If Cui Shouye heard this, given the old man's personality, he would definitely fall out on the spot, but Cui Xiuye smiled bitterly: "Li Jiyi is a straightforward person, my brother... Well, if he hadn't been in the cabinet with all his heart, he wouldn't have been raped.
People take advantage of it and make big mistakes!"
All the mistakes are Li Jingxuan's fault, what else can Li Yan say~
The two chatted for a while, Cui Xiuye thanked him again, and solemnly invited Li Yan to sit in the main hall as the chairman. After getting permission, he went to entertain others.
Qiu Shenji watched this person leave and whispered: "Compared to Cui Shouye's domineering and aggressive behavior, this Cui Jiyi is much gentler!"
Li Yan said: "It is also more difficult to deal with. Doulu Pavilion has an opponent."
The two brothers used to be at odds with each other, but now that the younger brother, who is the Minister of Justice, has been killed, Cui Xiuye stopped pretending and immediately took over the human resources.
Prime Minister Cui Dunli left a large amount of political legacy back then, Cui Shouye ruined a lot of it, and the rest was enough for Cui Xiuye to enjoy.
For example, the other two Ji Yishi, Huang Zhen and Zheng Jing.
These two people were Cui Shouye's old subordinates. At this time, they naturally united around Cui Shouye and stood not far away.
Li Yan walked towards them.
Huang Zhen looked embarrassed and was the first to greet: "Li Jiyi!"
Zheng Jing's expression was indifferent and he said calmly: "Li Jiyi!"
Li Yan didn't say anything, and his talent directly hit him in the face.
Let me see them all!
The emotional villains float up one after another.
Huang Zhen's villain is fearful, and Zheng Jing's villain is hostile.
"The reasoning begins."
"Fear of me." "Hostility toward me."
"Correct reasoning."
After confirming the true feelings between the two, Li Yan left Zheng Jing and smiled at Huang Zhen: "Huang Jiyi, we are not acquaintances. Let's come and talk."
Huang Zhen had no choice but to follow Li Yan to the edge.
He once personally led a team and forcibly took away Dou Decheng's right to interrogate him, creating a feud. Such a situation of no acquaintance without fighting is full of irony.
Since Li Yan knew that this strongman was afraid of him, he would not be polite and asked straight to the point: "Huang Jiyi, in the ten days after the scholar's poisoning case broke out, you and Zheng Jiyi went to Dali Temple Prison to interrogate Jia Sibo, right?"
?”
Huang Zhen said: "After review."
Li Yan asked: "Why go to trial him?"
Huang Zhen felt that there was nothing to hide: "We hope to make meritorious deeds."
Li Yan understood the time: "Is it after Dou Jing showed off her power in the inner prison?"
Huang Zhen nodded.
Dou Jing led a group of family members of drug addicts to go to the inner prison to block people. Li Yan also watched that scene.
Cui Shouye originally had the support of half of his subordinates, but even his in-laws turned against him, leaving only two die-hards Huang Zhen and Zheng Jing.
Seeing that the situation was not good, these two men immediately changed their strategies and went to interrogate Jia Sibo, which logically made sense.
Li Yan asked again: "If the day when Dou Decheng was arrested is regarded as the first day, on which day did you go to try Jia Sibo?"
Huang Zhen thought for a while: "On the fourth day."
Li Yan then asked: "When you interrogated Jia Sibo, did he have any physical discomfort, such as photophobia and blurred vision?"
Huang Zhen thought about it carefully, shook his head and said: "No, Jia Zei has cold eyes and is very unruly. He didn't even say a few words to us."
Li Yan said: "So you didn't promise Jia Sibo that if he reveals the traitor behind him, you will pardon him?"
Huang Zhen was shocked and said quickly: "Absolutely not. Who dares to make such a promise?"
Li Yan nodded slightly and began to ask for specific details.
During the conversation, he continued to use his talent to clearly see Huang Zhen's psychological changes.
The other party is afraid of me and can easily control his emotions. If it were Zheng Jing, he wouldn't be able to do this.
"This person's suspicion is extremely low."
In the end, Li Yan came to a conclusion and initially put Huang Zhen on the list of innocent people: "Huang Jiyi, why am I asking these questions? You must also know, right?"
Huang Zhen smiled bitterly: "Of course, the thief suddenly moved out of Dali Temple Prison, but instead of being sent to our inner prison, he disappeared. Was he silenced by the thief? We interrogators are also suspected?
"
Li Yan sighed: "Yes, the thieves are so rampant that they dare to commit such evil acts in the imperial city. The saint is furious and must get to the bottom of it!"
After Jia Sibo was plotted and turned into a living dead, Li Zhi was furious.
But after getting angry, it's not easy to get angry.
Because those who could interrogate Jia Sibo during that time were all dignitaries of rank five or above, all wearing scarlet robes, and there were as many as eight of them.
The Jiangnan case implicated several forces, Li Jingxuan was overthrown, and the army was about to go to Anxi to fight Tibet.
In such a sensitive period, the court cannot be in turmoil, and the risk of openly interrogating eight powerful officials is too great.
Therefore, the saint’s final will is:
Jia Sibo was sent to Ci'en Temple, where he was guarded and cared for by monks, and everything possible was done to restore his speech ability, as long as he could speak or write a name.
At the same time, Li Yuanfang was given the opportunity to investigate secretly and find out the suspects of the eight persons involved.
Li Yan once had no choice but to deal with 300 suspects, but now there are only eight, and he finds it is still particularly difficult to investigate.
Real name envy Conan.
Huang Zhen and Zheng Jing were two of the eight people. Li Yan had not been able to meet them during this period, so he came to Cui Shouye's funeral.
After communicating with Huang Zhen at this time, he took advantage of the situation and asked: "Zheng Jiyi was interrogated with you, did you all use torture?"
Huang Zhen hurriedly said: "I've used them all, but Zheng Jiyi is absolutely fine. The two of us are supervising each other when we are together!"
Li Yan's face darkened and he stared at him: "Some things cannot be said too fully. If you were the murderer, would it be safer for you to go to the interrogation alone, or would it be safer to go with a companion who would not doubt you and commit the crime secretly?
"
Huang Zhen's face stiffened: "This..."
Li Yandao: "I'm not asking you to be suspicious and suspicious of each other, but I want to remind you that if the murderer uses you to make perjury, you won't be able to clear away the suspicion. This matter is of great importance. Huang Jiyi, you must think carefully before answering me.
.”
Huang Zhen's expression changed several times, and finally he whispered: "I can't guarantee Zheng Jiyi."
The superficial brothers parted ways in an instant.
Li Yandao: "In that case, please ask Huang Jiyi to investigate Zheng Jiyi for me. Only Zheng Jiyi has the exclusive permission to do this case. If he is the murderer, I will ask the saint for credit and detail your contribution!"
Huang Zhen gritted his teeth and squeezed out one word: "Okay!"
After watching Huang Zhen leave, Qiu Shenji came to Li Yan's side and asked, "Liu Lang, is this person trustworthy?"
Li Yandao: "Before the truth comes out, all those who interrogate Jia Sibo cannot completely rule out suspicion, but suspicions vary. I know nothing about Zheng Jiyi, but I have at least a certain impression of Huang Jiyi. Such mutual investigation can greatly reduce the number of suspects."
It's difficult, as long as one of them has a ghost, they can get some clues."
Qiu Shenji was convinced: "I have learned another trick... Let's go and take a seat!"
The two put aside their cases for the time being and sat down happily.
Li Yan is the fifth rank Ji Yi Envoy, and he sits in the main hall as chairman together with Cui Xiuye, Huang Zhen, Zheng Jing and others.
The ranking is still very high.
Of course, you can't smile while eating, and you should have a bit of sadness on your face.
In addition to a large number of monks coming to perform rituals, the band also started playing, and Li Yan heard the clear sound of suona.
In this era, suona was not used exclusively for funerals and was played by musicians in the palace, but its soul still exists at this time.
Listening to that voice, one felt that Cui Shouye left with a smile.
After a sumptuous lunch, Li Yan and Qiu Shenji left with satisfaction and returned to their respective homes after get off work.
But this time, Li Yan had just returned to Duke Wei's mansion, and before he had time to tease the cat and eagle, he was called over by Li Derjian.
Li Yan came to the house: "Sir, what's the matter?"
Li Derjian sipped the tea, with a faint tangle between his brows, but seemed to have made up his mind: "Liu Lang, do you want to know about your mother?"
"My mother..."
Li Yan actually didn't want to.
The relationship between him and Li Derjian was often somewhat polite to outsiders.
There is nothing I can do about it. My parents and my closest relatives are no better than others. It is very uncomfortable to recognize a stranger whom I have not seen for more than ten years.
So he knew that there were some problems here, and after returning to Duke Wei's mansion, he only asked about it once.
Li Derjian didn't say anything at the time, so he stopped asking until he suddenly mentioned it.
Is it because of the three-point family background attribute change that was just improved?
Li Yan's thoughts raced through his mind and he sighed: "I grew up in Liangzhou..."
Li Derjian showed a bitter look: "Things back then were very complicated, and we couldn't forgive you... You are a good boy, and you have never really blamed me. I can see that..."
He showed the nagging side of the old man and murmured for a while before suddenly saying: "Your mother's surname is Xie."
Li Yan raised his eyebrows: "The land south of the Yangtze River, the Xie family in Chen County?"
That down-and-out family who is so poor that only money is left?
Li Derjian said: "Yes, you also know that I was involved in a major case back then. I was first sent to Lingnan, and was pardoned by the late emperor. Then I was sent to Suzhou, Jiangnan Province. My first wife had already passed away at that time, and I met your mother in Suzhou...
…”
Li Yan pretended to listen, but Li Derjian's voice became lower and lower as he spoke, and finally shook his head and said: "I won't mention those things anymore. Later, I returned to Beijing to inherit the title and brought her back to the mansion, but she didn't want to stay in Guanzhong for a long time, so she returned
I came to Jiangnan and lived in Chang'an for the second time, and I had you."
Li Yan calculated that several of his cheap brothers, the youngest Wu Lang, were almost forty years old, forming an age gap with him. It was normal that they were not born from the same wife.
Thinking about the information about his family background, Li Yan realized something: "Why did the adults suddenly talk about this?"
Li Derjian said: "Just now, your mother asked someone to enter the house, hoping that you could inherit her wealth in the Xie Chamber of Commerce..."
really.
This young man obviously works hard but he wants to go home and inherit a fortune worth hundreds of millions!
