Chapter 733 Another person dies

It's just that although the mistress admitted that he killed Zhou Facai, he refused to admit that he was in cahoots with the Zhou family.

Faced with this situation, Ye Xing and others were helpless.

Ye Xing had no choice but to imprison his mistress first and send someone to closely monitor Zhou's every move, even when he slept at night.[

After Ye Xing interrogated the third son, Zhu Gaochi, the prince's supervisor, sent someone to ask the supervisor to wait for Ye Xing and others in the palace.

Ye Xing didn't understand what Prince Zhu Gaochi asked them to do at this time, but Ye Xing and the others went anyway.

After arriving at the palace, Ye Xing found that there were many civil and military ministers standing in the hall, including ministers who had previously claimed to be sick and could not go to court.

When Zhu Gaochi saw Ye Xing coming, he asked enthusiastically: "Ye Aiqing, it has been several days since the murder of Zhou Facai. I wonder if you have investigated anything?"

Ye Xing didn't understand why Zhu Gaochi, who was the prisoner of the country, suddenly became concerned about a murder case if he didn't care about national affairs.

Ye Xing glanced around with his peripheral vision and found that Jin Yiwei commander Ji Gang was secretly happy. After seeing Ji Gang's triumphant smile, Ye Xing understood everything. It must have been Ji Gang who put pressure on Zhu Gaochi. This made Zhu Gaochi think Call a few of them to inquire and see if the murderer has been caught.

Just when Ye Xing was about to say that he had caught the murderer, Xiao Sanzi, Ji Gang suddenly stood up and said: "The murder of His Royal Highness in Jinling is a big event. It has been many days now. If the Ming Dynasty King did not find out, I'm afraid. It will affect the stability of the people of Jinling. Just imagine how the people of Jinling will feel at ease if the murderer is still at large. They will suspect that their family members and their neighbors may be the murderer. In this case, I am afraid that everyone will be in danger."

Although Zhu Gaochi has always hated Ji Gang, he felt that what Ji Gang said this time was reasonable. After all, it is better to investigate the murder case as soon as possible.

However, after listening to Ji Gang's words, Ye Xing suddenly felt that he had better not tell the story about the mistress until the matter was completely clear. Otherwise, if Ji Gang wanted to embarrass himself, he would probably kill the mistress and make himself dead. certified

So Ye Xing cupped his hands and said: "Your Majesty, please rest assured. Now I have a clue about this matter. I believe that the truth will be revealed in a short time. As for what the commander said about the people of Jinling, everyone is in danger. I think it is a bit exaggerated, but it is normal." How can a murder case be related to the major events of a country? The prince, as the supervisor of the country now, should ask more about national affairs. Small matters like murders can be left to servants like us. You are the prince supervisor of the country, and you must not make small mistakes. big"

After Ye Xing said these words, Ji Gang was angry for a moment but could not say anything. Zhu Gaochi suddenly felt that what Ye Xing said was very reasonable. As a prisoner, how could he ignore the country for a small murder case? Isn't this a big deal? Isn't it just focusing on one thing and losing the other?

There are even some that are not in line with one’s own identity

As a prisoner, there are naturally things that a prisoner should do.

So after Ye Xing finished speaking, Zhu Gaochi nodded repeatedly: "Well, Ye Aiqing said it very well, then I will leave this matter to you."

Nowadays, most civil and military officials in the Manchu Dynasty support Zhu Gaochi, so everyone has no objections to Zhu Gaochi's decision.

After leaving the palace like this, all Ye Xing and the others had to do was to continue waiting for the news from those who were monitoring the Zhou family.

But the next day after Ye Xing and others got up, a yamen servant hurriedly came to inform Ye Xing that another person had died, and the death situation was very similar to Zhou Facai's death. There was a dagger stuck in his back, and the dagger had been tested. It’s the same type of dagger that killed Zhou Facai

After hearing the news, Ye Xing and others were very panicked. If this was really the case, then didn't the mistress and the Zhou family not kill Zhou Facai? The reason why the mistress admitted to killing Zhou Facai was just because he wanted to take the blame for the Zhou family.

Extremely anxious, they hurried to the scene of the crime [

According to the yamen's report, the deceased was named Wen Wan, a very rich playboy. This morning, one of his friends, Fang Rufeng, called him to go out for fun. When he opened the door, he found Wen Wan dead in his bed.

After understanding the situation, Ye Xing and the others had already arrived at the Wen Mansion. The Wen Mansion was very large and considered among the wealthy businessmen in Jinling. Ye Xing and the others did not bother to appreciate the scenery of the Wen Mansion and went directly to the room of the deceased Wen Wan.

When they arrived at Wen Wan's room, they found Wen Wan lying on the edge of the bed with a dagger stuck behind his back. The style of the dagger was indeed the same as the one that killed Zhou Facai.

After checking Wen Wan, Ye Xing found that the only wound on the deceased's back was the wound on his back, which showed that the deceased was stabbed to death by the dagger from behind. The room was slightly messy, which meant that the deceased had fought with the murderer before he was killed. It's a pity. I was killed by a murderer because I was inferior to others.

After checking Wen Wan's room, Ye Xing asked: "Where is Fang Rufeng who found the body?"

At this time, a handsome man with a bookish face but eyes that couldn't help but wander walked in. He first bowed to a scholar and then replied: "The young man is Fang Rufeng."

Ye Xing looked at Fang Rufeng and asked: "What is your relationship with the deceased? Why can you go directly into the deceased's room to find him?"

Fang Rufeng nodded slightly and then answered: "Back to the Ming Dynasty King, the deceased Wen Wan and I were good friends who often played together. We had a very good relationship, so I didn't need to inform him every time I went to see him. This morning I went to see Wen Wan." Wan went on a spring outing together. When we arrived at the Wen Mansion, I asked the maid in the Wen Mansion if Wen Wan was at home. The maid said that Wen Wan had never been out. I thought that she was at home, so I opened the door desperately. But who had missed me? When he opened the door and found Wen Wan dead beside his bed, Xiaosheng was really frightened."

Fang Rufeng's words sounded literate and extremely verbose. However, Ye Xing and the others understood what he said anyway. So after Fang Rufeng finished speaking, Ye Xing immediately asked: "Where is Wen Wan's maid?"
