The Brocaded Tale of The Girl Si

Yu Jin suddenly looked at Jiang Si: "When the county magistrate asked about the case, didn't it say that Liu Sheng's second uncle died two years ago?"

"Yes, that's exactly what Li said. I remember this very clearly." Jiang Zhan said.

"That's interesting." Yu Jin smiled.

Jiang Xi thought a little further.

The little novice said that a woman disguised as a man stayed at Lingwu Temple half a month ago, but she was still born. It can be guessed that the woman surnamed Chi is likely to be the corpse of the garden woman?

But this matter has to be verified by Miss Li.

When the three exchanged in low voices, the county captain had already questioned several pilgrims separately, and then asked Li Zheng and two young people from Qingniu Town to go in for questioning in turn.

Li Gongzi is scolding Miss Li: "Since you are all right, why didn't I say anything when I brought people to fetch people from the well, and actually stood by and watched the fun! It's good, we lost such a big person, our family is still alive. I don't know how long it will take to be laughed at."

Miss Li was aggrieved and sad: "When I heard the wind coming, my eldest brother had already ordered people to go down the well to find people. How can you stand up in that situation?"

"If that's the case, why did you run out later?" Young Master Li was obviously not so good at fooling around.

"I—" Miss Li bit her lip, "I found out that I knew that person, and was terrified for a while..."

Li Gongzi stared at Miss Li suspiciously: "Sister, you and that person really just know each other so easily?"

Miss Li hurriedly glanced left and right, and said angrily, "Brother, what nonsense are you talking about, what if someone hears it?"

Li Gongzi sank his face: "Okay, I'll talk about it when I get home."

Miss Li breathed a sigh of relief.

At this time, someone came over and called Miss Li to go in for questioning. Young Master Li wanted to stop him, but seeing the inscrutable expression of the county captain sitting in the open door, he silently gave way.

Miss Li walked in timidly, and the door closed as soon as she entered, making her face pale with horror.

"Miss Li, don't panic. Now this official wants to ask you some questions. Please rest assured that no one else will know what you are saying here."

Miss Li bowed her knees slightly: "Sir, may I ask you."

The county lieutenant was silent for a while, and asked straight to the point, "What does Miss Li have to do with the deceased Liu Sheng?"

"Just, just know-"

The county lieutenant sneered: "This officer has already interrogated several people just now, but that's not what they said."

Miss Li looked at the county captain in amazement.

"If you don't know what to do if you don't know what to do, Miss Li frequently comes to Lingwu Temple for a short stay, do you think she will never be seen by others?"

"What the adults are saying, the little girl can't understand-"

"Miss Li, to tell you the truth, someone saw that you and Liu Sheng had a private meeting at night..." Seeing Miss Li's face pale and shaky, the county magistrate's tone turned gentle, "This officer just said, No third person will know what you said here. What this officer is investigating now is the death of Liu Sheng, regardless of gender. But if Miss Li does not cooperate, then this officer can only think that you have a lot to do with Liu Sheng's death. I can't wait until tomorrow to ask more people."

Miss Li swayed and subconsciously supported the wall. The coldness of the wall made her calm down a bit, and the words of the county lieutenant circled wildly in her mind.

I don't know how long it took, she finally couldn't hold it anymore, she covered her face and cried bitterly: "Yes, Liu Sheng and I have already made a private agreement for life!"

The corner of the county lieutenant's mouth was slightly loose.

Finally pried the girl's mouth open.

"We met at Lingwu Temple, because we can always meet each other, and after a long time...the two fell in love..."

"Miss Li doesn't need to go into details, just tell me if you have an appointment with Liu Sheng when you come to Shangxiang this time?"

Young men and women who are in love rarely get rid of the control of their families, so there is no reason not to meet secretly.

After admitting it, Miss Li was obviously not going to hide it anymore, and nodded tearfully: "We made an appointment to meet today. Because I was afraid that people would always show up on the same day, he would arrive one day earlier. But I couldn't wait after I came. When I got to him, I went around town where he might go,

Who knows, I heard that my brother brought people to Lingwu Temple to find me, and when I arrive-"

The county lieutenant waited for Miss Li to ease her emotions and asked, "Did Miss Li notice anything unusual about Liu Sheng?"

Miss Li hesitated and shook her head.

"Ling Zun is a famous person, and the Li family is a respectable family in Dayang Town. Although Liu Sheng's family owns a cloth shop, is it difficult for Liu Sheng to get the approval of Ling Zun and Lingci?"

Miss Li was silent for a while and nodded.

"Since the two of you are in love with each other, didn't you plan for the future?"

After listening to the county lieutenant's words, Miss Li seemed to suddenly think of something, her eyes widened suddenly and she was unable to speak.

The county magistrate sighed, "This official can keep the secret for Miss Li, but doesn't Miss Li want to find the murderer for the person she likes?"

Miss Li bit the back of her hand, put it down for a while and said, "He said not long ago that he would give out a large sum of money as a dowry."

"Ling Zun won't let go when he sees the dowry list, right?"

Miss Li's face was a little embarrassed: "He said that the money is a lot, which will make my father relax."

"Then your date this time-"

"When it's ready, I'll definitely meet again to discuss it. My lord, I think about it now, the amount of money that can let my father loose must be astonishing. Will his death be related to this money-"

"Okay, I have a general understanding, Miss Li, let's go out first."

Instead, Miss Li stood still.

The county lieutenant smiled and said, "Don't worry Miss Li, this officer will not let the victim die."

Miss Li bowed down, her voice trembling: "The little girl has thanked the adults, please find the murderer and seek justice for him!"

Miss Li withdrew, and the county magistrate patted the armrest of the chair lightly and muttered, "It seems that only the most important people are left now..."

At the same time, Yu Jin said softly, "It seems that only the most important people are left now..."

He and Jiang Si looked at each other, and they both said in unison, "Liu Sheng's mother!"

Jiang Zhan looked up at the sky.

He hated them the most to make him seem stupid.

There was a commotion at the gate of the courtyard, and soon several yamen officers walked in quickly, chasing after a few monks, seeming to be very dissatisfied with their sudden intrusion.

"My lord, the subordinates are here."

The county lieutenant came out of the house, the light of the lantern in the night shone on his face, showing a bit of urgency: "Did someone bring it?"

Caught head and clasped his fist: "My subordinate took someone to Liu Sheng's house. I didn't see Liu Sheng's mother, but found one person tied to a chair, and my subordinate brought that person."

After the catcher finished speaking, he raised his hand, and immediately a catcher came up with a black cloth bag on his head.

"Remove the cloth bag."

The catcher immediately took off the black cloth bag.

Everyone held their breath, waiting to see that the man's appearance changed.
