While everyone was in shock, Su Huangzhe led people in.
Butler Bai and others stood up to greet them.
Chief Liu Shan nodded and said, "Master Su, did you just come back from Wu County?"
Su Huangzhe nodded, "I hurried and hurried slowly, but luckily I caught up. Otherwise, our Criminal Department would have suffered a big loss."
Su Huangzhe nodded to Yun Pan, and Yun Pan continued: "As mentioned earlier, what Jin Dan said has two profound meanings. One is that Zhu Kexin can write with both hands, and the other is that he has more of Zhu Kexin's pen and ink here."
"At that time, we discovered that the books in the library had changed."
"That's right, why are the medical books I read a few days ago put up there?" Liang Su looked around and suddenly started shouting.
"We speculate that the murderer was looking for the calligraphy and paintings left by Zhu Kexin. Unfortunately, the murderer didn't know that Master Jin had injured his arm, leaving many high places out of reach, leaving a trail for him to search for."
Yun Pan smiled at Zhu Zhuzhi again and said, "Let's just bet that you won't find it!"
Zhu Zhuzhi was noncommittal, holding his hands so tightly that veins popped out.
Mr. Guo nodded towards Chief Liu Shan and Deacon Bai, "To be honest, we in the Criminal Department have been busy in the library all night. Fortunately, God pays off. We made the right bet."
After saying that, he motioned to the officer next to him to bring a stack of paper, took out one and handed it to the mountain chief and said, "Mr. Liu, please take a look at these first."
Liu Xichuan took a cursory look and saw that they were probably some random poems written by Zhu Kexin, but when he took a closer look, his brows furrowed. Deacon Bai on the side was anxious, but it was difficult to urge him. Everyone also waited aside with bated breath.
After a while, Liu Shanchang raised his head, sighed and said, "Deacon Bai, you should also take a look."
Deacon Bai and others gathered around, and Liang Su on the side also intervened and read out thoughtfully so that invisible people could hear.
"The government is not in line, the governors are divided, the governors are slandered, the regulations are reversed, the regulations are overturned, and they are almost threatened by corruption. How can they hide their bags and gauze hats in the forest streams, pick the buds, boil the clouds, and wash them A stomach full of dust for a hundred years? In Zuixiang, the nets are wide and the ban is wide, the nobles ascend to the hall, and the fathers of wine and meat often come in through the door with shields."
After Yang Ye and others heard this, they looked at each other. Shen Pingxiu couldn't help but said: "Isn't this the preface that Brother Zhu wrote for the book "Tea Director" last year?"
Yang Shen continued: "This preface is Brother Zhu's proud work, and the writing is sharp. As soon as this preface came out, no one dared to write a preface in front of Brother Zhu."
Yun Pan continued: "The first problem is to solve the problem of Zhu Kexin's handwriting. There should be no doubt about Zhu Kexin's handwriting on this handwriting, right?"
Everyone has confirmed it before, and they are even more convinced that it was written by Zhu Kexin.
Butler Bai said with a gloomy face: "Zhu Zhuzhi, I remember you wrote this preface during the Mid-Autumn Festival last year. Because this is a rare masterpiece, I remember that the academy specially included this article in the collection."
Zhu Zhuzhi kept a pale face and said nothing. Butler Bai picked up the paper and stuffed it in front of him and said, "Why is this article written by Zhu Kexin, and the date it was written is indeed last year's Dragon Boat Festival?"
Feng Mo and Shen Pingxiu remained silent. At this time, they couldn't help but ask: "Brother Zhu, how do you explain this?"
Zhu Zhuzhi's expression softened, he chuckled, and said, "It's just that I wrote it a long time ago. Brother Zhu is close to me, so I just copied it in advance. There's nothing to explain."
Liang Su looked at Zhu Zhuzhi, pursed his lips, and said in a seductive voice: "Brother Zhu, this article is longer and more complete than the preface you wrote. Also, there are some things you wrote in the early years behind it. Here come those poems.”
Everyone looked at Zhu Zhuzhi and had thoughts in their hearts. Yun Pan sneered and said, "What, you have no words to explain?"
Zhu Zhuzhi felt the sweat on his body sticking to his skin layer after layer, and kept cheering himself up in his heart, saying, it's okay, these things will always be secrets, no one will know. Until a picture scroll unfolded in front of his eyes, Zhu Zhuzhi seemed to see Zhu Ke's eyes looking at him after he died, as if he knew everything, but there seemed to be a smile in his eyes.
Zhu Zhuzhi sat slumped in the chair next to him, saying nothing.
Butler Bai said with a gloomy face: "Zhu Zhuzhi, now that there is so much evidence, what else do you have to say. I never thought you could be such a vicious villain."
Zhu Zhuzhi didn't look at Butler Bai at all, but looked up at Su Huangzhe and Yun Pan who were standing beside him. He slowly sat up straight and said, "There are mountains of evidence? These evidences only prove that those poems and articles were written by Zhu Kexin and I plagiarized them." If I copied his work, so what? Brother Zhu and I are brothers, and he tacitly allowed me to copy his work. If he wanted to report it, he would have already done so. Why should I bother with it?"
When Yun Pan heard this, he couldn't help but look in the direction of An Ying. He remembered what An Ying said last night, "From various clues, it seems that Zhu Zhuzhi has a very tough mind and a careful mind. If he wants to subjugate the law, he must have evidence." Confirmed. Now these evidences can only prove that Zhu Zhuzhi is guilty of plagiarism, and he will definitely not plead guilty to the charge of poisoning."
But Mr. Guo and himself disagreed. For these scholars, if the evidence of plagiarism is conclusive, their minds will inevitably collapse, and the poisoning will naturally be confessed. Unexpectedly, as An Ying said, Zhu Zhuzhi, a scholar, was so shameless that he had no bottom line.
Everyone was silent, and Yang Ye and others felt that he was extremely shameless.
Liang Su, on the other hand, said carelessly: "That's right. If Brother Zhu himself doesn't mind, then there is no motive for the crime. This cannot be considered as evidence."
At this moment, An Ying spread out the portraits he had seen before, pointed to one of them and said, "Please read this sentence."
It was the one Liang Su and Yang Ye saw that night.
"On the fifth day of the ninth lunar month, when Brother Luqing got good results in the examination, he drank with my concubine until he became ugly." Yang Shen read it out first, and then said contemptuously: "Brother Zhu's literary talent is good, so what? So girly.”
Liang Su raised his head in shock when he heard this, and rummaged through a pile of papers that Mrs. Ge had brought.
An Ying nodded secretly. Liang Su's IQ was indeed a step ahead of the others.
Yang Ye didn't know why and asked, "What are you looking for?"
An Ying handed over some of them and said, "He is looking for these."
When everyone looked at it, they saw that they had just seen some boudoir work of a young lady, and they couldn't help but wonder: "What on earth does this mean?"
Liang Su said in a deep voice: "Brother Zhu has a habit of pretending to be a woman?"
Su Huangzhe was a little surprised and asked, "Do you know about this hobby?"
Liang Su scratched his head and said: "There are many records in my family's medical books. Some men like to pretend to be women, or their tone of voice, or their clothes. Although it is not on the stage, it is not harmful. Judging from so many of Brother Zhu's inscriptions claiming to be women. , he probably has this hobby."
Others looked surprised. Su Huangzhe nodded and said, "You are right. He does have this hobby, but Zhu Kexin is no longer a hobby."
Liang Su lost her voice and said: "Could it be..."
Su Huangzhe nodded. The others didn't know why. Liang Su said: "Actually, this habit is not important. We never prescribe treatment. It's just that if the disease is serious enough, the man will think that he is a woman. He is not just pretending to be a woman in private." , that is, she behaves like a woman. What’s more, she insists on marrying a man, which is more troublesome, and medicine has no solution.”
Everyone was dumbfounded, and Liang Su continued to ask: "How did you know that Zhu Kexin was no longer a private hobby? Such privacy is rarely brought to the table, so there are very few records in medical books."
An Ying said: "I was investigating at Zhu Kexin's house. The lady Wang who was looking at the house mentioned that when she helped Zhu Kexin expose clothes and books, she saw a lot of women's clothes in the suitcase. Of course, these were also taken away by Zhu Zhuzhi.
At that time, we thought that Zhu Kexin might have a secret crush on a young lady. But Wang Po said that no woman had ever come to see Zhu Kexin. Moreover, if Zhu Zhuzhi wants to keep a souvenir, there is no need to dress like a young lady. "
"Now combined with the notes written by Zhu Kexin, these clothes are probably his own."
"So Mr. Su went to the Zhu family in Wu County to investigate. Of course, how could the Zhu family tell such secret matters to me and other officials. Fortunately, the police officer was smart and took out some women's clothes and pretended to be Zhu Kexin's relics. Make the eldest grandma of the Zhu family admit it."
"Zhu Kexin was frail and sick when she was a child, and almost died several times. The elders in the family heard that if she pretended to be a girl, she could deceive the ghosts, so Zhu Kexin always dressed up as a girl when she was a child, even with this Zhu family cousin, she always dressed as a woman!"
"When he got a little older, he was in good health, so his elders asked him to change back to men's clothing. However, he was used to women's clothing, so he still had a habit of wearing women's clothing in private. The elders in the family turned a blind eye and let him go."
Everyone in the hall looked at Zhu Zhuzhi. But Zhu Zhuzhi still didn't say a word, he just clenched his fists with both hands, and the veins in his hands protruded.
"So we learned from the investigation in Wu County that you and Zhu Kexin were cousins when they were children. It wasn't until you returned to the capital after you were eight years old that you two separated. When Zhu Kexin grew up, you two were together again in Jinling Mansion Academy. These so-called The poem about friendship was also written by Zhu Kexin for you."
Zhu Zhuzhi suddenly interrupted and said, "Zhu Kexin likes to pretend to be a girl, and we have had a friendship since childhood. This is nothing." After that, he picked up the tea cup on the side and took a sip of soup.
