"Liu Congguang is dead?"
When Lin Xiaoyi hurried into the study to report, Di Jin stopped writing and was a little surprised.
In fact, he was still prepared to follow this line and wait for this idiot relative to take revenge. After all, there were not many people who could get involved with the Queen Mother, and the danger was not great.
How to further escalate the situation without getting out of hand? We had all planned it out, but the other party gave in first and then died directly?
Fortunately, he didn't hang quietly in front of his own house.
Di Jin was not worried about the Kaifeng government office visiting him and taking him to the government office for questioning. He and Liu Congguang had indeed had conflicts, but they had been living in seclusion recently, studying hard for exams, and the other party had died at home, so no slander could be blamed on him. …
When they arrived at the door, after the two parties greeted each other, Lu Andao didn't take any measures. He kindly reminded him in a low voice: "After Mr. Di Lang enters the Yamen, please look more and talk less."
Di Jin said: "Thank you so much, Lu Tuiguan, it saves the students!"
Just as he was talking, he passed by the neighbor's door and saw the door of the house suddenly opened, and Gongsun Ce walked out without hesitation: "Shi Lin! I'll go with you!"
As the saying goes, a friend in need is a friend indeed, and when he saw someone coming from the Yamen, this person dared to come forward, and he was undoubtedly a good friend. But looking at the excitement on Gongsun Ce's eyebrows, Di Jin knew very well that this person was almost exhausted without a case.
Gongsun was in such a state. If he didn't tell the other party, he would try every means to find out. Di Jin said: "Brother Mingyuan, be careful. This case concerns Liu Congguang, Chongban of the Inner Palace. He was the nephew of the Queen Mother and had a respected position. Now he is dead inexplicably." , I’m afraid it will involve a lot.”
Sure enough, when Gongsun Ce heard that his relative had died, he became even more elated, not because he wanted to cling to the powerful, but because the higher the status of the person, the more complicated and tortuous the murder process was, and he had the pleasure of solving the puzzle: "Okay! I will go to the Liu Mansion to investigate, and if they wrongly accuse you, I will provide evidence to clear your name!"
After that, he turned around and left.
Lu Andao was stunned: "This person...?"
Di Jin explained: "This Gongsun Mingyuan is a good friend of mine. He is also well versed in the art of punishment. He has repeatedly solved strange cases in Luzhou. What is most embarrassing is that innocent people die in vain and the murderer goes unpunished."
"I see! But this case... alas!"
Lu Andao sighed softly, thinking that it was a good thing for the young man to be motivated, but wading into the muddy water for no reason was too impulsive. However, everyone had left, and it was impossible for him to send out officials to chase Gongsun Ce back. He could only say: "I hope He must be safe!"
After a brief interlude, Di Jin followed Lu Andao to the Kaifeng government office again. Before he entered the door, he saw that the officials and officials were walking in and out a little faster, with nervous expressions on their brows.
The Queen Mother's family member died, and it was suspected of murder. The Kaifeng government office was naturally the first to bear the brunt. The pressure to solve the case was much greater than ordinary cases.
Not to mention them, even Chen Yaozi was sitting in the main hall and no longer smelled of alcohol. The judge under his command had already led a team to the Liu Mansion to report the news back at any time.
Lu Andao led Di Jin forward and saluted: "Dafu! We have been brought here!"
Chen Yaozi nodded to Lu Andao, looked at Di Jin, and said seriously: "Di Shilin, Liu Congguang, the Chongban of the Inner Palace, died. You two had conflicts and disputes. Will you meet again after that?"
Di Jin bowed his head and said: "Chen Zhige is a gifted student. I moved to the Imperial College a month ago. Since then, I have been studying scriptures at home and preparing for exams. I have not heard anything outside the window. I only read the books of sages and have never been out. This is Laoqiao." The troops deployed in front and behind the alley should be proof."
There are several military patrol shops in every street and alley in the capital. There are five military patrol shops inside, responsible for public security, patrols and fire-fighting. The most important thing is the latter. After all, the fire in Rongwang Palace eleven years ago was so tragic that the two dynasties had accumulated so much. , all gone in one day.
Since then, fire prevention has become the top priority of the soldiers. Patrols also pay attention to fire conditions. However, it is normal to stare at some passers-by. If you go in and out every day, you will always be seen by some soldiers. Di Jin dares to say this, It means that he really has never been out and is completely at home.
Chen Yaozi stroked his long beard gently and praised greatly: "What a Di Shilin who has no ears to hear what is going on outside the window and only reads the books of sages. No wonder the sergeants in the capital are looking for you but can't find you. Wait until you reach high school." , I don’t know how many people I have to shame!”
Di Jin said: "Zhi Ge is ridiculous!"
Chen Yaozi's expression has calmed down. What he is most worried about is that this person has been wandering around outside all day, especially when he has been to the Fang District near Liu's Mansion. It is really hard to say that there is no suspicion. It doesn't matter now, no one else has. He has been out of the house, so he has nothing to do with the case. He has the right to know the Kaifeng Mansion, and he will not tolerate the Liu family's random attacks!
Next to him, Lu Andao had already written his confession and recorded everything he said exactly. Di Jin read it and signed it.
Chen Yaozi said: "Shilin, please go back and don't go out these days to avoid causing more trouble."
Di Jin said: "Yes!"
To be honest, he was really curious about how Liu Congguang died, but he also knew that this curiosity must be suppressed.

Chen Yaozi also knew that he was quite talented in criminal justice, but he did not ask any questions at all, but asked him to go home quickly, which was a kind of protection.
Therefore, after leaving the Kaifeng government office, Di Jin went home without stopping at all.
As soon as he entered the house, Lei Cheng came up to him: "Sixth brother, is the Imperial City Secretary looking for trouble?"
Di Jin was worried that the walls had ears, so he did not answer near the door. He made a gesture and led Lei Cheng all the way into the hall before explaining the matter: "My maternal relative Liu Congguang died at home. I had a conflict with him before. , was taken to the Kaifeng government office for questioning. Fortunately, I have been preparing for the exam at home during this period, and there is no suspicion. I know that the person in Kaifeng government is the upright and strict Chen Gongyaozi, and the case cannot affect me. "
"Oh!" Lei Cheng was still a little worried: "Sixth brother, if you need help, you must ask. My second brother can help!"
Di Jin knew that Lei Hu's second son, Lei Jun, also led a team to Beijing and had already settled in Beijing, but the two parties had not yet contacted each other.
This is a very correct behavior. The purpose of Lei Jun's entry into Beijing is to arrest the personnel of the Imperial City Department at the critical moment. He will serve as a witness to Jiang Deming's murder of the official's biological mother. It also proves that the local inspector Lei Biao is in this human relations situation. During the tragedy, he withstood the pressure from the top, finally abandoned the dark side and turned to the bright side, choosing the moral side.
In this case, it would be foolish to meet rashly before launching an attack, which may lead to mutual exposure. Therefore, when they were in Bingzhou, Di Jin made an agreement with the Lei family that no Lei family personnel would get involved with him unless absolutely necessary.
The same thing is true now, Di Jin warned: "Sanlang, not to mention that Liu Guangyi's case has nothing to do with me, even if it is related, you must not go to your second brother for help, do you understand?"
Lei Cheng scratched his head: "Okay! I remember it! Then... can the Cao family do it?"
Di Jin raised his eyebrows: "Cao family?"
Lei Cheng said: "My tiger-wing sword was passed down by General Cao. I, Alang, used to be a member of General Cao's account. I followed him at the foot of Tiandu Mountain, gathered all the tribes, and confronted the Xia thief Li Deming for ten days. Sergeant Wan, I will never dare to commit the crime!"
The second half of this sentence was said so skillfully. It was obviously Lei Hubo who was bragging about it at home and was firmly remembered by his son. From this experience, Di Jin also understood which General Cao the other party was talking about: "Cao Bin's son Cao Wei..."
He had met Cao Mian, a descendant of the Cao family, at Guo Chengqing's house before. He was the grandson of Cao Bin, the first general in the founding of the country, and Cao Wei was the son of Cao Bin.
Cao Bin lived a long life, and lived until the Zhenzong Dynasty. When he was seriously ill, Zhenzong went to his bed to ask about his funeral. Cao Bin said that he had nothing to do, but the talents of his two sons, Cao Can and Cao Wei, were worthy of any post. As a general, Zhenzong asked them who was superior and who was inferior. Cao Bin replied that Cao Can was not as good as Cao Wei.
This is indeed the case. Cao Can is also a fierce general. He has repeatedly defeated the party and defeated Li Jiqian, Li Yuanhao's grandfather. However, after all, he still has less experience. In comparison, Cao Wei has been in charge of the army for forty years and has never been defeated. He is especially good at border towns. .
After Li Jiqian's death, Cao Wei immediately went to court, hoping to seize the opportunity to defeat the Li family. Unfortunately, Li Deming, who succeeded him, was very cunning and pretended to be groveling to please the Song court. Song Zhenzong did not want to start a war at that time and directly refused.
Of course, it does not mean that according to what Cao Wei said, the Dangxiang Li family, which has been separatist for nearly a hundred years, will definitely be destroyed. After all, it is an opportunity to suppress. Now that the Dangxiang Li family has completely encroached on the Hexi Corridor and grown again, it is too late to regret.
Lei Biao used to be Cao Wei's personal guard. He later joined the Forbidden Army and became the local inspector of the Imperial City. However, he still did not forget to implement the old general's wishes and monitored the Xia people in Bingzhou to prevent them from invading the Song Dynasty again...
From this point of view, the relationship between the Lei family and this number one military general family is indeed close. No wonder they dare to have the confidence to kill Jiang Huaiyi just as they say.
Di Jin knew something in his mind: "I have been in contact with Cao Jian, the husband of the Cao family, before. If the situation really comes to the point where you need to find someone, you can go find him directly."
"That's good!" Lei Cheng smiled reassuringly.
After appeasing the silly boy and entering the study, Di Jin took out the scroll and calmly plunged into the golden room.
Seeing how calm the young master was, Lin Xiaoyi, Zhu Er and Lei Jiu, who later learned the news, also calmed down and returned to their normal pace of life.
Until nightfall, the knock on the door rang again.
"It's so late...could it be..."
Lin Xiaoyi went to open the door with a pale face, and breathed a sigh of relief as soon as he opened it: "It turns out to be Mr. Gongsun, please come in!"
In his opinion, it was normal for Gongsun Ce to visit him, but he didn't notice that Gongsun Ce's face looked a bit uncertain under the moonlight.
When they arrived in the study, Di Jin could tell at a glance that something was not right with this person: "Mingyuan, is there a problem with Liu Guangyi's case?"
Gongsun Ce hesitated for a moment, then suddenly bowed and bowed to the end: "Shi Lin, I'm afraid I won't be able to live with you!"
Di Jin didn't know, but his expression became serious: "Please speak clearly!"
Gongsun Ce said in a deep voice: "I suspect that the murderer has read "The Biography of Su Wuming" and is familiar with the plot above. To kill Liu Congguang, he used the same method of adultery and murder of his husband in the first case!"
