Chapter 18 The Gift of the Knife

Lying in bed at night, Mou Rongtian thought about the case and thought: "Why did Ding Bufa kill Li Jianyuan? He was a professional killer, either hired by others, or he was greedy for Li Jianyuan's sword.

"If he was hired by someone, then who wanted to get rid of Li Jianyuan? What was his motive for getting rid of Li Jianyuan? For money? For revenge? Or for love?

"There are only a few motives for killing, either for money, revenge, or love. Li Jianyuan is a very well-behaved person. When he was young, he never got involved with women and had few scandals. As he got older, he kept himself clean.

Now that he is over seventy, the possibility of love murder is unlikely.

"Is it a vendetta? It's unlikely. Li Jianyuan is well-known as a good gentleman. He never has any grudges with others. He always bears the responsibility of being patient. The purpose of being a man is to endure the calm for a while and take a step back to open up the world. He has been in Taiyuan Hospital for decades.

, I have never blushed with anyone."

"Is it for money? What benefits can killing Li Jianyuan bring to the buyer? Li Jianyuan is the envoy of Taiyuan Hospital. Is it possible that people from Taiyuan Hospital want to get rid of Li Jianyuan and rise to power? It is possible, but it is not very likely.

big."

Mou Rongtian thought for a long time and felt that it was unlikely that Ding could not be hired. It was probably because he heard that Li Jianyuan had a precious sword that he saw the wealth and wanted to take it for himself, so he killed Li Jianyuan.

Mou Rongtian thought to himself: "Ding Wenfa, Ding Wenfa, you can just grab the knife. Why do you want to kill someone? It's really sad that a famous doctor died innocently under your knife like this."

"Dragon Scale Purple Gold Knife, it was you who killed Imperial Doctor Li. People in the world are flocking to precious swords. Ding cannot get used to the sword. He has been in the underworld for half his life and has never bought himself another treasure. If he hears that Imperial Doctor Li has a precious sword in his hand

, how can you not be tempted?

"I heard from the Li family that the Dragon Scale Purple Gold Knife was given to Dr. Li by Tian Ergen. This Tian Ergen, what's wrong with you as a gift? Why did you give the knife? Isn't this sending Dr. Li to his death?"

Speaking of this Tian Ergen, he is a very important figure. He comes from a famous family. His grandfather Tian Le once served as the Minister of the Ministry of War, and his father Tian Feng is the current Minister of the Ministry of War. Tian Ergen has followed the leader of the Hengshan School, Huode Zhenjun, since he was a child.

Zhang Daoqian studied art and was Zhang's top disciple.

After Yicheng came down from the mountain, Tian Ergeng joined Dongchang and gained the respect of the factory official Yan Shoufeng and became Yan's top horse. Because he was good at the magical power of flames, people in the world called him the Fire Qilin.

Not long ago, Tian Ergeng went to the Taiyuan Hospital to see Li Jianyuan. He said that he had not slept well during this period due to his busy work. He had some insomnia and could not sleep at night. He was not energetic during the day and was tortured a lot. He wanted to ask Li Jianyuan to prescribe a prescription.

Son, give him some time to nurse.

Li Jianyuan checked Tian Ergeng's pulse and found that Tian Ergeng's pulse was stable and there was no sign of insomnia. But Tian Ergeng said so, so he could only prescribe medicine. So Li Jianyuan prescribed some qi and blood supplements to Tian Ergeng to regulate the internal organs.

medicine.

At that time, Li Jianyuan was still a little worried, fearing that Tian Ergeng's illness could not be cured. Unexpectedly, a few days later Tian Ergeng happily came to Li Jianyuan's home with heavy gifts and said that his insomnia had been cured and thanked Li Jianyuan profusely.

.

At Li's house, Tian Ergen pointed to the knife hanging in the hall and said: "I didn't expect that the old doctor was so good at martial arts. Your medical skills are amazing, so I guess this knife skill is no different."

Li Jianyuan smiled and said: "I don't have any martial arts skills. I just use it to exercise and relax my muscles and activate blood circulation."

Tian Ergeng took off the knife, pulled it out by pressing the spring, took a look, and said: "This knife is very ordinary and not worthy of an old lady. Tian has several precious knives at home. I will give one to the old lady another day."

Li Jianyuan said: "I don't understand martial arts, so what's the use of a precious sword? Mr. Tian should keep it for himself."

Tian Ergeng said: "I have plenty of them, so I'm not surprised. What's more, the old lady doctor cured my insomnia. I should thank you well. What does a knife count?"

Li Jianyuan thought Tian Ergeng just said that, but he didn't expect that he would send someone to deliver the Dragon Scale Purple Gold Knife the next day. Li Jianyuan couldn't refuse, so he had to accept it.

Mou Rongtian investigated the case very carefully. When he was at Li's house, he asked the origin of the Dragon Scale Purple Gold Knife clearly and clearly.

Lying on the bed, Mou Rongtian thought to himself: "How can this guy Tian Ergen have insomnia? What kind of evil things have he done to prevent him from sleeping?"

Jinyiwei and Dongchang are like two tigers in a mountain and cannot tolerate each other. Mou Rongtian does not have a good impression of Tian Ergen. In the past, the two have competed several times in handling cases, with each winning or losing. Mou Rongtian feels that Tian Ergen is cunning, vicious and highly skilled in martial arts.

, is a difficult character to deal with.

He was thinking to himself when suddenly the door opened and a person came in. Mou Rongtian took a look in the moonlight and said with a smile: "Tianmu, it turns out it's you." After saying that, he turned over and sat up on the kang, and said again: "You are finally back.

Yeah, I've been worried a lot these past few days, just because I'm afraid something might happen to you."

Li Tianmu put the package on the table, picked up the teapot, poured a glass of water, drank it all, and said: "I'm so thirsty. I ran non-stop for several days and finally got back. Qing'er and the others

What? Which inn do you want to stay at? Tell me and I will go find them."

Mou Rongtian said: "They don't live in the inn. Jiaoyue invited them to the Flying Tiger Escort Bureau. It's good for everyone to live together so that they can be taken care of."

Li Tianmu put down his tea cup and said, "Okay, I'll go find them."

Mou Rongtian said: "What's the hurry? You can sleep here today. It won't be too late to go tomorrow."

Li Tianmu said: "That's fine."

Mou Rongtian said: "Pufeng has been solved?"

Li Tianmu said: "That's natural. Didn't you see the head on the table?"

Mou Rongtian saw him carrying a package. It was bulging and he didn't know what was inside. It turned out to be Pu Feng's head.

Mou Rongtian said nervously: "This is evidence of crime, what are you going to do with it?"

Li Tianmu said: "Use it to pay homage to the old hero Li, let him see Pu Feng's bald head, and rest in peace."

Mou Rongtian said: "It's better not to take this thing out. You killed Pu Feng. Are you afraid that others won't know about it?"

Li Tianmu said: "People in the whole street saw me killing that bald donkey. I can't hide it. What does a head matter?"

Mou Rongtian was startled and said: "What, half the people on the street saw you kill someone. Oh, no, why can't you just keep a low profile? Your cat killed him quietly. It would be great if no one noticed."

, why bother causing trouble in the city and causing trouble for yourself."

Li Tianmu smiled and said: "It's too late, just go to sleep, go to sleep!" He took off his clothes and lay down on the other side of the fire bed.

Mou Rongtian thought of Li Jiaoyue's father, Li Jinzhong, and felt that he was a sad and hateful person. He had heard Li Tianmu talk about his life experience when he was a child, but he never expected that Li Jiaoyue was Li Tianmu's cousin.

Regarding the case of Li Tianmu's father Li Shuan killing his uncle Li Jinzhong, Mou Rongtian once went to the Ministry of Criminal Justice to read the files from that year and found that there were many doubts.

Li Tianmu once told him that after he became an artist, he would personally kill the dog official who had wronged his father. It was he who changed Li Tianmu's mind. He said: "Tianmu, if you kill that magistrate, you will do something that is clearly justified."

If it becomes unreasonable, then your father's case will never be brought to justice. If you can trust me, don't kill that magistrate. When I become a royal guard in the future, I will definitely help your father clear his grievances."

After so many years, Li Tianmu kept his promise and did not kill the county magistrate back then. However, he had nothing to say and failed to help Li Tianmu's father reverse the case. He felt guilty.

Then he said: "Tianmu, I'm sorry for you."

This statement stunned Li Tianmu. He didn't know what it meant and asked, "Why did you say that?"

Mou Rongtian said: "I once promised that I would help your father reverse the case, but in the end, I made a mistake."

Li Tianmu said: "So do you still have the confidence to help my father reverse the case?"

Mou Rongtian knew that if he said he had no confidence, Li Tianmu would immediately go to the then magistrate to settle the score. So he said, "Yes! It just takes some time."

Li Tianmu said: "Then let Gu Guan live for another two years. After two years, if you still can't keep up the preface, I will take action myself."

Mou Rongtian said: "Okay, then give me another two years. If it doesn't work, let's discuss it again." He was not sure that the case could be turned over within two years, so he kept it alive instead of dead.

Speaking of his father's unjust case, Li Tianmu thought of his uncle again.

This uncle is the eternal pain in his heart. It was because of Li Jinzhong that his father died unjustly. The government said that his father killed Li Jinzhong, but he didn't believe it at all, because his father told him personally on the execution ground that he was unjustly accused.

In his impression, his father never lied, so he firmly believed that his father must be unjust.
