Xu Jian clicked to stop.
He had been suspicious of Su Ke since Chen Gui came to the Yamen to report the case.
Even when Chen Gui quietly told him, "The princess suspects someone is responsible," Xu Jian was able to confirm that the "someone" the princess meant was Su Ke.
However, without the slightest evidence, the Chengcheng Mansion, as the owner of the suffering, cannot casually doubt the Xu Guogong Mansion.
Xu Jian is different.
He came to Shuntian Mansion under the holy order, and the few words he had with Master Shan were not considered unfounded suspicions.
It's a brainstorming session to investigate the case.
What's more, he didn't mention anyone by name.
Who could tell Su Ke to be so up-to-date? Master Shan immediately thought of him when he mentioned "dandy".
In this room, Shan Shen was thinking about how to touch Su Ke's bottom without alarming the snake or causing conflicts. In that room, Zhang Yuan's nose inhaled again and again, making his stomach growl with the fragrant smell.
He made an appointment with Chen Gui to meet outside the government office.
Chen Gui came, with a boy behind him dragging a cart covered with a layer of cloth, and standing beside him was a kind-faced nanny.
"This is..." Zhang Yuan swallowed, "It smells so good!"
Chen Gui laughed.
"The gift prepared by the third lady, it's almost the New Year, isn't it? It's tacky to give money. If you don't have it, you won't be able to get it, and if you have too much, you will be jealous. It just so happens that the village has prepared a lot of duck sausages to give to well-wishers. It can be used during the New Year." Add two more dishes."
"It was getting dark, and there was a scary knock on the door at the Yamen. There are still women at home, so the princess asked Grandma Wang to come with her so that we could talk more easily."
"Master Zhang and all the yamen servants are all busy with official duties. After the yamen is sealed, I will bring two more ducks. Speaking of which, we haven't eaten since evening, so why not first divide them into two hot buns and put them on a pillow? .”
Zhang Yuan felt extremely warm after hearing this.
When giving a thank-you gift, you must not embarrass the person receiving the gift.
Although money is good, it is not good if it is exposed.
They are not allowed to accept anything as errands, but when you are on vacation, you share a duck leg, I nibble on a duck wing, and then drink hot wine, no one can say that this is "lining your own pockets."
Two buns now is not a big benefit.
With such thorough consideration, the uncle's dignity is engraved in his bones!
What did colleagues in the yamen say before and in private?
If all the distinguished disciples in the capital were as upright as Chengyi's family, the Yamen would have fewer problems.
There's really nothing wrong with that at all.
Zhang Yuan greeted the two yamen servants and divided them, hurriedly finished eating, and then set off.
As each family knocked on the door, Grandma Wang's eloquence was revealed.
A basket of sausages and duck, and a sincere thank you, relieved the nervousness and defensiveness of the well-wishers when facing people coming from the yamen, and they were able to talk about the situation in peace. .
He was so busy until dark, and early the next morning, he visited the remaining ones and several houses outside the city. After Zhang Yuan sorted out the statements from all parties, he handed them over to Shan Shen for review.
Master Shan felt his head swell at the sight.
Under the guidance of a nunnery's master, the government officials found a wealthy businessman who came down the mountain in a carriage yesterday.
Judging from the handlebar view, they went down the mountain two quarters of an hour earlier than Chengyi Bofu. The mountain road was not easy to travel, but it was not particularly slippery.
"We have been driving for thirty years, and this is how we eat. Can we tell whether the ground is slippery or not? It went smoothly when we went down the mountain! Is the one who slipped a newbie? It is also an old handlebar type, very reliable? "
Some kind-hearted people went up the mountain and some went down.
An old lady with numb legs and feet gave her excuse.
"When I was going up the mountain, I saw a carriage parked there. I yelled at the handlebar. If the horse couldn't move anymore, it had to move to the inside. How could it be parked on the outside? What if the carriage came down the mountain and didn't pull it? , wouldn’t something happen?
When I went down the mountain again, the car was gone. I encountered another car in danger and quickly went to help.
I don’t know what is wrong with the uncle’s house. When someone is in trouble, isn’t it right to lend a hand?
That carriage from before? The car jacket is blue, the most common kind in the city. "
At the foot of the mountain, next to the official road, there is a tea stall.
"Yesterday was not a big day. There were very few carriages going up and down the mountain. Excluding the ones that came down in the morning, I remember there were only five carriages. I know the one belonging to Uncle Chengyi's house. Everyone said something almost happened to his family. Those who came down the mountain before and after his house ...In the afternoon, there was one car. I drank hot tea here. Then it was a car with a Chu color car cover. It looked a bit rich at first glance, and then it was the uncle's car. The last ones coming down the mountain were two blue cars, rented by the car dealer. Right?"
Below this paragraph, Zhang Yuan gave annotations.
Chu Se's car suit belongs to that wealthy businessman.
Looking further down, we can probably determine the source of the ice water.
There is a small temple on the mountain, which is not busy on weekdays. There is a spring in the backyard that does not stop in winter, and occasionally people come to fetch water.
"Yesterday, when I got up from a nap, I saw two people carrying two buckets of water each and leaving. The young monk was also surprised. The spring water in the temple did not taste good and the tea was unpalatable. No one usually came to take so much. Those two people should be officials. The servants' clothes are different from those of ordinary people. Senior brother said that a carriage was parked outside the temple. After leaving in the afternoon, he came again later, but no one entered the temple to offer incense."
After reading it, Shan Shen handed the testimony to Xu Jian with a dull face, closed his eyes and rested, and combed through it.
Each servant carries two buckets of water and walks grandly on the mountain path. Someone will definitely see him.
The government officials asked so many people, but no one mentioned it. It can be seen that the four buckets of water were loaded into the carriage after leaving the small temple.
That blue carriage was very suspicious.
The carriage could hold it, and when the monk didn't see it, it might have already contained several barrels.
The old lady went up the mountain and urged the car to be moved before the wealthy businessman came down the mountain.
Because there were few carriages that day, once the wealthy merchants left, apart from two rented carriages, only Uncle Chengyi's house was left.
In other words, the blue-clad carriage had been waiting nearby but did nothing because its goal was clear.
After confirming this, no pedestrians passed by and the water in the bucket was poured down.
The two carriages stopped outside the small temple again, and the instigator...
Just wait and see the excitement!
Is this done with care? It's really not fastidious.
Have you considered the causes and consequences, and have you considered cleaning up the scene and wiping your butt clean? nor!
Anyone who has been in the officialdom for two years and worked as a clerk in a government office for a few months can do it without even noticing if he wants to do such harmful things.
If he, Shan Shen, takes action, he can make the carriage fall apart without even having to analyze and deduce it step by step, and it will be "too unfortunate"!
Where can I get the clues from the Yamen?
But just because he was so focused on his head and not his butt, all Shan Shen could think about was Su Ke's bare butt with teeth marks that was seen by half the city's people.
After pressing the swollen forehead, Mr. Shan let out a long sigh.
Don’t blame him, really don’t blame him!
I really can't stop thinking about Mr. Su.
After leaving so many clues, you still want to escape unscathed?
He really treated Shan Shen as a fool!
"I'll ask some horse and carriage dealers first, who rented two carriages to go out of the city yesterday." Shan Shen discussed with Xu Jian.
