Zhang Yuan raised his heels and ground them hard on the ice. It was slippery and made his calves tremble.
He knelt down again and touched it with his hand. It was so cold that his heart froze.
Who is this person, so wicked!
In the middle of winter, there is water splashing along the mountain road?
That is to say, to assist the Duke to be cautious.
Otherwise, if the government officials didn't think much and just shoveled all the ice away, it would be too late.
With the words of the princess and the Duke in front of her, Chen Gui was not surprised by this result.
He even fully agreed that this move was for Uncle Chengcheng's Mansion.
It's just that the evidence isn't there yet, so it's not a good idea to bite him to death.
Therefore, Chen Gui pretended to be shocked: "What do you mean? Someone is out of his mind and causing trouble on the road, trying to catch someone unlucky? We happened to meet him in our house, and he was unlucky but not so unlucky, so we saved the day?"
Zhang Yuan nodded slightly.
Seeing this, Chen Gui hurriedly pulled Zhang Yuan and said: "The conspiracy has not succeeded. That person may come again a few times. Others may not be so lucky next time! Oh, Mr. Zhang, we must catch that villain." Come out, or else tomorrow I will cause someone else to fall down, what should I do?"
How could Zhang Yuan not understand the importance?
Even if the person who encounters the problem today is an ordinary citizen, as long as he comes to the Yamen and sees the clues, they will definitely deal with it and will never dismiss it with "bad luck".
What's more, the one who is in trouble is Uncle Chengyi.
Duke Fu is still sitting in the yamen drinking tea!
It's just like what Chen Gui said, if you don't succeed once, you'll have to do it again...
He didn't know whether Mr. Shan's head hurt or not, but Zhang Fucheng's neck was very uncomfortable anyway.
The yamen is proactive, but everyone can walk on the mountain road. Where will they arrest people?
Chen Gui was very considerate and quickly took out a roster from his arms and unfolded it for Zhang Yuan to read: "They are all pedestrians who helped move the carriage in the afternoon. I originally wanted to come to the door with gifts to say thank you, so I specially left my name, surname and address. You Do you want to ask first?"
Zhang Yuan's eyes lit up.
Of course you have to ask for a witness!
It’s truly a sincere house!
People who have rules and know etiquette will do things thoughtfully!
With so many names out there, it’s not impossible to know where to start.
At the same time, Chen Gui's suggestion also opened his mind.
Zhang Yuan gave instructions to the government officials.
Three people were left to clean up the ground, and others were asked to go up the mountain to several temples and nunneries to inquire whether anyone had seen any suspicious people, or if any familiar pilgrims had been there and knew their residences so that they could be recorded. Go ask a few questions.
Especially the carriage going up and down the mountain.
Pilgrims walking will try their best to stay on the inside of the mountain path. Even if there are conditions on the ground outside, it will be difficult for them to notice.
When the carriage goes down the mountain, it will inevitably be pushed to the outside. Perhaps we can judge from the reactions of the riders and try to shorten the time frame when the mountain road is in trouble.
After the arrangements were made, Zhang Yuan and Chen Gui hurried back to the city.
Mr. Zhang first reported to the Yamen.
Chen Gui then went to Uncle Chengyi's house to deliver the news.
In the Zai Shou Courtyard, Mrs. Duan had already heard about Lin Yunyan's request to report to the official.
When asked the reason again, the old lady nodded repeatedly.
"Yun Yan is more careful," she said. "I was just worried that Yun Jing and her daughter were gone, and I forgot to mention that the mountain road is difficult to navigate. Other families may encounter it, so it is better to let the Yamen clean it."
Lin Yunyan smiled and said, "How can I be as kind-hearted as you said? I asked the officer to report it because I thought there was a reason for everything and there was a monster harming people!"
Xiao Duan was stunned when he heard this.
There have indeed been a lot of backstabbings in the family recently. If Lin Yunyan mentions it, Xiao Duan will certainly not think that she is talking nonsense.
It's just the word "monster" that confused the old man.
Yun Yan often used words to tease her.
Now is this true or is it good?
If you take any chance, screw it if you can?
While he was thinking about it, Chen Gui was invited in.
After saluting, Chen Gui explained the situation one by one.
"When Uncle Niu and I arrived at the Yamen, Duke Fu was also there. He was very concerned about what happened and asked Xuan Su to follow us out of the city."
"Xuan Su has really good eyesight. It was almost dark, and he could tell there was a problem just by looking back and forth."
"Zhang Fucheng also agrees that someone is causing trouble, but he's still not sure whether it's for us, or if someone is unlucky."
"The Yamen is going to investigate all night, so I handed over the list to the nanny."
"I thought that if the thank you gifts were prepared and sent there together, otherwise we would be embarrassed if the government officials came to us for questioning before we even got a thank you after we had helped and left our names."
Xiao Duan covered his heart repeatedly when he heard this.
Seeing Lin Yunyan give her a look that said "You see what I said is right?", she couldn't help but laugh. .
This girl is so devilish!
It's a good thing to be smarter, so that you can fight back again and again, and don't let those monsters plot against you!
Mrs. Chen rushed over quickly.
After figuring out what was going on at the moment, she said, "Everything is ready. I can deliver it later."
Seeing that the old lady was worried, she quickly found something to say and praised Xu Jian again.
Careful, thoughtful, and attentive.
The praise made Xiao Duan feel much relieved.
Another compartment.
Shan Shen almost rolled his eyes to the sky after hearing Zhang Yuan's reply.
There are really some people who think that the year before was not lively enough and want to set up a stage to sing a big show, right?
Fortunately, no one was killed, otherwise, Shan Shen would have been scolded in the Jinluan Palace again.
He is not afraid of being scolded.
When you are an official, it is very common for you to be scolded by the top and the common people when things are not done well.
But this is purely because someone is looking for trouble.
Shan Shen turned to look at Xu Jian.
Xu Jian patted his shoulder and said, "Thank you, Master Shan."
After Zhang Yuan exited, Xu Jiancai said again: "Sir Shan, who do you think would do such a stupid thing?"
The veins on Shan Shen's eyebrows twitched, and he took a breath of cold air: "Why do I hear that the word 'dandy' means something?"
Xu Jian laughed, noncommittal.
Just because it was so unclear made Shan Shen think about it even more.
In his mind, a dandy face emerged - the third son of Duke Xu.
Thinking on the left and thinking on the right, it’s all him!
Lingering!
No, you must not be preconceived when investigating a case!
Shan Shen reminded himself.
Even if there is indeed a conflict between Su Ke and Uncle Chengyi, especially Miss Lin, and the motives are reasonable, it has only been half a year, and there is no reason to suddenly cause trouble at this time.
Besides, this can be done...
An ordinary playboy who just hangs around, he really may not be able to do such an unscrupulous thing!
However, Shan Shen felt that Su Ke could do it.
Taking another deep breath, Master Shan calmed down his emotions and couldn't help but reflect.
He would almost make a big mistake if he investigated the case carefully.
But can you blame him?
In fact, the way Su Ke was brought to Shuntian Mansion by the garrison yamen that day was indeed an extraordinary dandy.
How about quietly checking on Su Ke?
After all, when investigating a case, one cannot ignore intuition.
