The more he thought about it, the more Zhao Shuhai felt that this woman could not stay. Even thinking of her beauty seemed to be boring now.
He thought that after he returned, he would drive the woman away.
On the other side, after Lu Zhizhang persuaded Zhao Shuhai to send the girl away, he only told the boy who was following him, "Go to the other courtyard where we went today and help me keep an eye on the girl. If she is kicked out, Now that he’s gone, you can take him back to the Lu Mansion.”
Hearing Lu Zhizhang's words, the young man was simply stunned.
The boy couldn't help but lower his voice and persuaded, "Sir, this is not good, that woman looks similar to Princess Jin. If Prince Jin knows that you are hiding such a girl secretly, will Prince Jin and you not have any bad feelings?"
Hearing what the boy said, Lu Zhizhang's face darkened, "I have my own sense of discretion, I don't need you to tell me."
Seeing Lu Zhizhang's answer, although the boy felt that Lu Zhizhang's behavior was really very stupid, in the end Lu Zhizhang was the master, so the boy naturally did not dare to say anything more at the moment.
Then the servant left under Lu Zhizhang's arrangement.
Lu Zhizhang didn't go back to interrogate Chen Ke until the boy left him.
Chen Ke had already been tortured by His Highness Ninth Prince, although he didn't know why the person took him away later and why he brought him back now.
However, he knew that he actually had no choice of retreat.
After all, to the people of Gu Yue Island, he had already been a traitor.
It is impossible for a traitor to return to Guyue Island.
So right now, he has no other way to survive but to go to the dark side.
Lu Zhizhang looked at the lifeless Chen Ke and said, "Chen Ke, are you from Guyue Island?"
Chen Ke glanced at Lu Zhizhang, then nodded silently.
Lu Zhizhang continued to ask, "Then do you know the category?"
Chen Ke still nodded, "Of course I know, the person who arranged this assassination is Fan Changcheng."
Lu Zhizhang was shocked when he heard Chen Ke's words.
"Do you also know Fang Choucheng?"
Chen Ke nodded, "He is the Zuo Guardian on Guyue Island. I am his subordinate. Of course I know him."
I heard that Chen Ke was so close to Fang Changcheng, and he also participated in this assassination operation.
Lu Zhizhang was very happy.
He continued to ask Chen Ke in a low voice, "So, you are very close to him?"
When Chen Ke heard this, he still just nodded silently.
Lu Zhizhang then said, "Chen Ke, do you know that he killed the servants of the Zhou family in a tavern near the official road of the Weishui River?"
Facing Lu Zhizhang's inquiry, although Chen Ke hesitated for a moment, he still nodded silently, "Of course I know about this. I also participated in that operation. We killed three men, one old, one young and one young. After that, We killed two more maids. We also tortured and killed a woman. We also forced the woman in purple clothes who ran behind to jump into the Wei River."
Chen Ke said that the number of people and conditions were consistent with that incident. Lu Zhizhang was shocked and couldn't help but continue to ask, "They have no money and no way to pass by, why do you want to kill them?"
After hearing Lu Zhizhang's words, Chen Ke only raised his head and looked at Lu Zhizhang, "Fan Zuozhi has an unfathomable mind. We are not his confidants. We don't know why he wanted to kill those people."
"But a few days ago, under Fan Zuoshi's order, we assassinated two more people. Although we didn't succeed, I recognized that the woman in purple among them seemed to be the woman we forced to jump into the Weishui River. How could I I didn’t expect that she was still alive. I thought he must have had issues with those women.”
Lu Zhizhang didn't nod when he heard this. He just looked at the man silently and said, "Isn't he always on Gu Yue Island? How are you sure that he had an affair with those women?"
Upon hearing Lu Zhizhang's question, Chen Ke immediately retorted, "That's not true. Our Ambassador Fan doesn't often stay on Guyue Island. Instead, he often stays in the capital, sometimes for ten and a half days at a time." Yue, this time except for these two assassinations, he rarely returned
Guyue Island. "
After hearing Chen Ke's words, Lu Zhizhang's mind became more active. He knew that if he asked Chen Ke anything at this moment, he would not get any valuable clues.
Lu Zhizhang only asked people to escort Chen Ke back to the prison.
After Lu Zhizhang finished interrogating Chen Ke, he went to the case file record library. .
When the clerk in the archives saw Lu Zhizhang coming, he immediately ran over diligently, "Mr. Lu, what case are you investigating today?"
Lu Zhizhang just said calmly, "Do you have a case involving a man named Fang Choucheng here?"
In Lu Zhizhang's opinion, there must be some cases involved when Guan Changcheng fled to Guyue Island.
The clerk just nodded calmly after hearing this.
Lu Zhizhang then said, "By the way! Send me some records related to Gu Yue Island as well."
After receiving Lu Zhizhang's instructions, the clerk nodded.
However, he did not leave immediately.
Seeing that he was still standing there blankly, Lu Zhizhang couldn't help but ask, "What are you still standing here for? But what else is there?"
Facing Lu Zhizhang's inquiry, the clerk could only whisper, "Master Lu, I have something that I need to tell you."
Lu Zhizhang nodded to signal him.
Then the clerk said in a low voice, "The day before yesterday, Mr. Zhao Shuhai and Mr. Zhao reviewed the cases you have tried in recent days. I cooperated with him in reviewing your cases. But later, the more I thought about it, the more I felt that this was abnormal. , so I think it is necessary to talk to you about this matter."
Hearing that Zhao Shuhai was actually investigating his identity, Lu Zhizhang was surprised at first, but after hearing that it happened the day before yesterday, Lu Zhizhang became much calmer.
After all, what Zhao Shuhai did happened to coincide with his secret possession of Chen Ke. He couldn't have guessed that he was trying to reverse the case, after all, he didn't tell anyone.
At present, except for a few confidants involved in the case, such as Dali Temple Qing and Wu Chaguan, who else knows what they are investigating.
So Lu Zhizhang just calmly comforted Na Wen and said, "This matter is not a big problem, but you should tell me about it earlier next time to avoid causing unnecessary trouble to yourself."
Seeing Lu Zhizhang say this, the clerk immediately nodded in agreement.
Later, with the help of documents, Lu Zhizhang finally found all the information related to Gu Yue Island, as well as information related to Wan Changcheng. This Wan Changcheng was originally a native of Sunset Square on Zhuque Street. His mother made a living doing chores for others, and his father He is an idle man. There was no one to discipline Fang Choucheng at home, and Fang Choucheng became like his father, capable of stealing and stealing. Later, his mother couldn't stand it anymore and threw him into a monastery, where Fang Choucheng learned from the warrior monks. After some time, he found the temple boring and ran away again.
Because he had no money, he robbed nearby merchants, and the place where he ambush was a place called Yun'an Temple.
Later, he was chased by the government after issuing documents, and it seems that he escaped to Guyue Island at that time. After going to Guyue Island, his subsequent records were no longer recorded.
After reading Fan Changcheng's records, Lu Zhizhang was not touched at all. He turned to look at the clerk and said, "Since this Fan Changcheng was once wanted by the government, he must have a portrait left, right?"
Hearing Lu Zhizhang's question, the clerk nodded immediately, "It seems that there is a portrait left, but there are too many files here. It may take me some time to find things related to his portrait."
Facing the document, Lu Zhizhang nodded calmly, "Okay, I'll trouble you to find it."
Hearing Lu Zhizhang's polite words, the clerk quickly said with fear and fear, "I'm going to look for the portrait now."
As soon as the words fell, the clerk left in a hurry.
After Wen Wen left, Lu Zhizhang also began to recall what Wen Wen just said, Yun'an Temple? However, Yun'an Temple left a little impression on Lu Zhizhang. He always remembered that he had been to Yun'an Temple, but where was Yun'an Temple?
And just when Lu Zhizhang was trying to recall this matter, a sudden call came from outside, "Master Lu! Master Lu, are you in there?"
When Lu Zhizhang heard the voice calling, he immediately motioned for the visitor to come in.
Within a moment, a dusty police officer appeared next to Lu Zhizhang.
"Master Lu, Master Lu, we have finally found out the identity of the unidentified deceased person in Yun'an Temple."
"Yun'an Temple? What Yun'an Temple?" Lu Zhizhang was confused.
Seeing Lu Zhizhang's confused and unaware look, one of them immediately reminded Lu Zhizhang, "Mr. Lu, don't you remember? In September, we once took shelter from the rain in an abandoned temple on the outskirts of Zhuque Street. At that time, we also met Miss Zhou and her fiancé, we found several corpses in that wing that day, and even the hollow Buddha statue was filled with corpses. There was a dead person in one of the wings whose identity we didn’t know. Don’t you remember? "
After hearing the reminder from the officer, Lu Zhizhang finally regained some memories. It turned out that that place was Yun'an Temple. No wonder he felt familiar.
Since Yun'an Temple is the resting place of Yuan Chou Cheng, could the corpse of Yun'an Temple be related to Yuan Chou Cheng?
The more I think about it, the more possible it becomes.
However, the investigation cannot rely solely on speculation, and evidence must be produced.
Considering this, Lu Zhizhang decided to listen to the officer's report first.
"I remember that there was such an incident that day. However, because these bones were too old and the direction of the case was unclear, the case was shelved for the time being. How about it? What have you found out now?"
Facing Lu Zhizhang's inquiry, the officer immediately whispered, "Master Lu, after repeated inquiries and inquiries, we have basically determined who the unknown male corpse was in the wing that day. The unknown male corpse was Zhou. The young lady’s fiancé Xu Tianyi.”
Lu Zhizhang was obviously shocked when he heard the officer's words. The body was almost dried, which showed that the man had been dead for a long time.
But on the other side, there was Xu Tianyi who married Zhou Yaoniang after that. Xu Tianyi, who was still alive that day, even sat with him.
