Jia Cong and Chen Ruijin had just arrived in Chang'an when something happened. It didn't look big, but it was obviously a provocation. There was a blind fortune teller who lived at Mingdemen in Chang'an. He died three days ago. The last fortune he made before his death was:
Jiang Laosi, the first veteran under Ou Cheng, was beaten by Jiang Laosi after the calculation - he said that Jiang Laosi would die in a misfortune soon. Just now, people from the Yamen went to Jiang Laosi's house and took him away, saying that he was a blind man.
It was him who killed him.
Jia Cong heard this and laughed and said, "What a coincidence! I am a person who specializes in destroying other people's lives and has changed their lives for many people." Chen Ruijin pursed his lips and smiled.
Ou Cheng was overjoyed when he heard this and took Jia Cong's hand: "Master Cong, I'm counting on you!"
Jia Cong spread his hands and said: "But I really don't know how to solve the case. I can only go and see if there are any loopholes first." He thought for a moment and said, "I still don't know what Ding Chu came to Qin for. Although this man has good character,
No, no one can deny that he is smart and capable. If this is just a provocation, it can be solved without too much trouble; but if Ding Chu digs a hole for the Gao family, the matter will not be so easy to deal with."
Ou Cheng asked: "What is the origin of that traitor Ding Chu?"
"Do my aunt and uncle Ou know that there is a counselor named Zhao next to my cousin Gao? He was originally a businessman."
They both nodded: "Mr. Zhao, we know."
"Mr. Zhao has a nephew named Zhao Tu. He was originally adopted. He is very talented and has a photographic memory. In the past few years, he worked for his cousin Gao and was very favored. I didn't want him to fall in love with a female spy sent by the Lu State.
, and later he followed the female spy to the State of Lu. Later..." Jia Cong smiled, "He escaped from the State of Lu again."
Ou Cheng asked: "Why is this?"
Jia Cong shrugged and said: "At that time, Liu Tong got a beautiful mute concubine named Ma, and he loved her like a sweetheart. Ding Chu kidnapped the woman."
Ou Chengdao: "What does Ding Chu's kidnapping of Liu Tong's concubine have to do with Zhao Tu?"
Jia Cong said: "Ding Chu is Zhao Tu's real name."
"What?" Jia Taijun and Ou Cheng shouted in unison.
Jia Cong spread his hands and said: "You can go to the bookstore and buy a copy of the Commentary "Ziyi Ji". He then detailed the origin of Ding Chu. Beringen wanted to use him to plan the strategy of the Lu State, and also told the story of the arrival of Ding Chu and Ma Xiangzhu.
Experience after Hong Kong. "Later, when the Bai family declined and the Gong family took over Hong Kong, Ding Chu seemed to be quite important under Gong Sanyi. As for why he came to Qin, I don't know."
Jia Taijun squeezed his crutch and thought for a long time, and shouted: "Xiaomei——" Jia Cong still remembered this daughter-in-law named Xiaomei. The last time she came back to Chang'an, she was the one who greeted her at the gate. She was obviously a confidant of her aunt. But she saw Xiaomei slowly and slowly.
Xu walked out from behind Jia Taijun. Jia Taijun ordered: "Go and check." Xiaomei followed the order and left. Ou Cheng looked calmer when he saw her leaving.
Jia Cong thought for a while and said: "At my great-aunt's birthday party, Liu Qian was still a young scholar. In order to vent his anger on his cousin, Uncle Chen, he wanted to use me as a knife to embarrass Mr. Chen; he gave me some advice.
It was Zhu Tong. I heard that the three of them were classmates and friends. Later, Zhu Tong was abducted by me, and I took Liu Qian away with him. I don’t know what happened to Uncle Chen? He is the eldest son of the prefect of Chang’an. Zhu Tong, I remember, is Chang’an.
Nephew of the prefect Zhu Wei. How is the Zhu and Chen families doing now?"
Jia Taijun glanced at him: "The nephew of Governor Zhu is Zhu Tong from Lu State?"
Jia Cong nodded: "I think Beringen's strategy is also good. Ding Chu borrowed it after he went to Lingnan."
Jia Taijun looked at him again, with a smile in his eyes. "The Zhu and Chen families have already turned against each other, and soon after the world was divided, they fell into King Qin's plan to alienate them. It would not be cheap for King Qin if he did not separate the two families. The Chen family and the Gao family had previously
We are very good friends. In the past two years, the King of Qin has disliked us, and his family has followed us like a pug with Western ideas. Prefect Zhu has always had an average relationship with us, and it has remained average in the past two years."
Jia Cong smiled and said: "It can be seen that those who have a good relationship are not necessarily friends, and those who have a cold relationship are not necessarily passers-by. The Zhu family is now their own."
"Oh?" Jia Taijun asked, "When did your kid get involved with Zhu Wei?"
Jia Cong shrugged and said: "To be honest, since the death of the Bai brothers, the remaining troops of Prince Yi Zhong have been led by Gong Sanyi of Hong Kong. Zhu Wei is a member of Prince Yi Zhong, so he followed Gong Sanyi. Hmm
...Mr. Gong is my enlightenment teacher."
Ou Chengcheng high-fived and laughed: "You still have such luck!"
Jia Cong touched his neck and said, "How lucky! It took Mr. Gong many years to deal with the Bai family."
Jia Taijun said: "Didn't Ding Chu also return to Gong Sanyi, which means he returns to you?"
Jia Cong said: "Theoretically, that's the case. But Mr. Gong didn't say anything, so I don't know what's going on."
Ou Chengdao: "I'm just afraid that things may change, otherwise why would he want to deal with the Gao family?"
Chen Ruijin said from the side: "Could it be that Mr. Gong gradually stopped using Ding Chu and ran away again? He sincerely encouraged the King of Qin to deal with the Gao family in order to drive the Gao family to Ping'an Prefecture. After all, the Gao family knew about 'Zhao Tu'
Ding Chu is uneasy about the details."
Jia Taijun said: "That's the same reason." He shook his head and said, "This Lord Ding dares to cuckold the lord, so what if he is talented?"
Jia Cong smiled and clapped his hands and said: "I said back then that Ding Chu is a scourge, and Ma family is also a scourge. Buy one, get one free, whoever follows will be unlucky."
Ou Cheng said: "That's all, don't worry about whether he brings harm or not. Jiang Laosi is still locked up in the Yamen."
Jia Cong curled his lips and said: "Yes, the Yamen is under the control of the prefect." Nai looked at Chen Ruijin with a smile, "There are many people named Chen!"
Chen Ruijin smiled calmly and said, "The person has been arrested?" Ou Cheng nodded. She asked again, "Is this person important?"
Ou Chengdao: "He is my old brother for decades."
Chen Ruijin saluted Jia Taijun and said he had something to do. Jia Cong didn't ask, just said he would come back early. If he didn't ask, it would be inconvenient for others to ask. Chen Ruijin turned around and disappeared in the blink of an eye. Ou Cheng was stunned: "
She, she has such ability?" Jia Cong was very proud and asked him what the case was like. Ou Cheng smiled bitterly and said, "I was too anxious to come here and didn't ask in detail." Jia Cong rolled his eyes.
About half an hour later, a doorman from outside came in and said, "Master Chen, the prefect, wants to see the old lady."
Jia Cong was chatting with some gossip to make the old lady happy. Hearing this, he was startled: "Huh? The prefect is here in person?"
The disciple said: "It is indeed the prefect who came in person."
Jia Cong looked confused and turned to look at Jia Taijun. Jia Cong said: "Since you are here, please come in." He also ordered, "Cong'er and General Ou are here." They both agreed in unison. Jia Cong knew.
Most of the time, I would use it to support my great-aunt, and even straighten her clothes.
Not long after, Mr. Chen came in. He was filled with the sour smell of an official. He was no different from all the officials he had seen over the years: his belly was as round as that of a woman who was six or seven months pregnant, and his three strands of beard were neither too long nor too short.
The official hat on his head was shaking. Jia Taijun did not stand up. He sat on the black rosewood chair and said with a smile: "I am old and my knees are a little inoperable. It is inconvenient to go to the front to greet the Lord. I still want to see Haihan."
Master Chen cupped his hands and said with a smile on his face: "I am not a talented official, so I don't dare to disturb the old lady."
Jia Taijun asked him to sit down and asked: "Mr. Chen, you always go to the Three Treasures Hall for no reason. What must be the reason for coming to our house today?"
Mr. Chen nodded and said: "A case happened a few days ago. I wonder if the old lady heard about it?"
Jia Taijun said bluntly: "If a blind fortune teller died, I would still be discussing it with others."
Mr. Chen raised his eyebrows: "Oh? Such a small case has alarmed the old lady?"
Jia Taijun said: "It seems to be a small case with you, but it is very important to our Gao family. Every veteran has followed the Gao family to kill Japanese pirates in the south and fight against barbarians in the north. He did not die on the battlefield, but
How can I turn a blind eye to the injustice I suffered for no reason in the ordinary city of Chang'an?" The old lady's voice was clear and gentle, but there was a sense of murderous intent for no reason, and Jia Cong almost couldn't help but want to flatter her!
Mr. Chen sneered and said: "So the old lady ordered people to break into the Yamen and seize people?"
Jia Taijun was stunned: "What?"
Ou Cheng stood up: "Master Chen, what does this mean? To seize people? What happened to Jiang Laosi?"
Mr. Chen snorted heavily: "General Ou, why bother pretending to be confused? If you didn't take Jiang Laosi away, who else would have taken it away?" Ou Cheng and Jia Taijun looked at each other.
Jia Cong suddenly said: "Master Chen, if you make a judgment directly based on conjecture without investigation, the probability of misjudgment is extremely high. The student dares to say that this matter has nothing to do with the Gao family."
Mr. Chen raised his head and looked at him: "Who are you?"
Jia Cong stood up with a smile and bowed: "Wansheng is from Jinling, and his surname is Jia."
Master Chen's expression changed slightly. Who didn't know that Taijun Jia was from the Jia family in Jinling? He forced a smile and asked, "Could it be Mr. Jia from Rongguo Mansion?"
Jia Cong bowed again: "The student is Jia Cong."
Mr. Chen's face turned pale immediately, and he immediately pretended to be surprised and said, "It turns out to be Mr. Jia Cong!" But his acting skills were too poor.
Jia Cong said: "To be honest, Uncle Ou was just telling me about the case between the blind man and Jiang Laosi. He wanted me to help look at the case and redress Jiang Laosi's injustice. But he knew too little. I
I was thinking about going to the Yamen tomorrow to inquire about the details. Breaking into jails and rebelling against them was the work of thieves from the green forest. The Gao family has been loyal for generations and could never think of such a way. But..." He paused, "Your Excellency has become suspicious.
The Gao family, I'm afraid the Gao family can't stand by and watch. Why don't we all work together to find the real culprit who killed the blind man, and also find out who took Jiang Laosi away, why he was taken away, and where he is hidden."
Mr. Chen looked at him, then at Jia Taijun and Ou Cheng. It really didn't look like they were hiding someone, so he couldn't help but think about it. After half a day, he smiled bitterly and bowed to Jia Taijun: "Old Mrs., I'm going to lower my rank.
Sorry."
Jia Taijun frowned and said, "Master Chen, what is going on."
Jia Cong said: "Your Excellency, you'd better explain the case of the blind man clearly. Working together is the right thing to do."
Mr. Chen's eyes rolled around, obviously worried. After a while, he said: "Old lady, you veterans are really too arrogant. It's just a divination, and it's not like a blind man is chasing after him for divination, isn't it?
He went to seek advice from others on his own? Why would he end up hurting people’s lives?”
It turned out that the blind man was stabbed to death at home. The police found a simple knife in the smelly ditch near the blind man's house, with the word "ginger" carved on the handle. Then he asked the blind man's neighbor what he had done.
Do you recognize anyone named Jiang? The neighbor said that someone came to ask him for divination yesterday, and seemed to hear the guest yelling, "How about my surname Jiang?" The policeman found the mark of the blacksmith's shop on the knife, and took it to ask the blacksmith;
After another two days of searching, Jiang Laosi was found today.
Master Chen was so narrated that he burst into tears, and Jia Cong had goosebumps all over his body after listening to it. Finally he finished speaking and asked quickly: "Has the policeman ever asked Jiang Laosi with a knife if it was his?"
Mr. Chen was startled: "This... I don't know about this."
Jia Cong said: "Mr. Chen is the magistrate, so it is unusual for such a trivial matter to be so important. I wonder if the detective handling the case might invite Wan Sheng to see him?" Master Chen was stunned again, stroking his beard and thinking for a long time. Jia Cong
Qi said, "Your Excellency, it seems you don't want us to understand this case?"
Mr. Chen hurriedly said: "That's not true..." He turned around and ordered the people following him to call the police to come over.
Jia Cong added: "Excuse me, brother, I've also invited the co-author in charge of this case. Thank you."
After waiting for a long time and still not seeing the policeman or the gangster, Ou Cheng said impatiently: "Does it have to be arranged temporarily?"
Jia Cong said hurriedly: "Uncle Ou, don't worry, I'm afraid it's because the Yamen is a bit far away. Mr. Chen didn't think he would need them, so he didn't bring them here."
Ou Cheng sneered and said, "Mr. Chen was not prepared to reason with the Gao family, but was only prepared to come here to talk official talk?" Mr. Chen's face looked a little embarrassed.
After a while, the policeman and the gangster came in a hurry. It was a hot day, their heads were covered with sweat, and their backs were soaked. They knelt down and saluted Mr. Chen. Jia Cong said: "Don't be in a hurry!
Let's drink some warm tea first." He also ordered for a larger tea cup, "The hotter it is, the harder it is to drink cold water." Neither of them recognized Jia Cong, so they just thought he was an ordinary scholar and thanked him with all his strength.
I drank four or five cups of tea before I felt better.
Mr. Chen coughed and said, "This is Mr. Jia from the capital."
Jia Cong handed over his hands and said, "Thank you for your hard work. I would like to ask you for advice on the murder of the blind fortune teller at Mingdemen." The two of them stood up and bowed. Jia Cong first asked them to sit down and then asked, "I want to
First, let me ask the policeman, have you shown the bloody knife you found to Jiang Laosi?"
The policeman said: "Of course I showed it to him and he recognized it as his own."
Jia Cong asked: "What did Jiang Laosi look like when he saw the knife?"
The policeman said: "I was shocked and asked why I was here."
Jia Cong said: "I'm shocked. Is there any fear?"
The policeman thought for a moment and said, "No."
"How did he explain that his knife might have killed someone?"
The policeman said: "He said his knife was lost the day before yesterday."
Jia Cong thought: "The blind man died three days ago. If his knife was lost the day before yesterday, and if he didn't lie, his knife was not lost when the blind man died."
The catcher nodded: "Not bad."
Jia Cong said: "Then I can be sure that Jiang Laosi did not kill him. But I may not have the ability to find out the whole case, and this case must be much more complicated than we thought." He looked at Mr. Chen with a smile, "
This blind man is a craftsman. As for which company sent him and what he wants to check, it’s hard to say.” (. Just Love Network)
