Ming Dynasty Yongle 2Yongle City, Yong'an City, Zhang Mansion.

Late at night, everyone else was asleep. In the backyard of Zhang's mansion, when Zhang's wife Li Yulian passed the corridor, she found someone next to her, and asked, "Who is coming out."

The man walked out, and Li Yulian said in disbelief, "Why is it you?"

The next morning, when the maid Taohong was delivering food to her wife, she found the wife lying in a pool of blood. For a moment, the news that her wife Li Yulian was killed instantly spread throughout Yong'an City.

The reason why Li Yulian was killed caused a sensation in the city was mainly due to one person. She is the concubine of Zhang's mansion Pei Yu'e .

Constable Wang Zhi hurried to the Zhang Mansion with Wang Xiaoliu. After he arrived, his first order was to put the Zhang Mansion in martial law and not allow anyone to leave.

Because before he came, he received an order from his superior that if the case cannot be solved within one day, he will be asked to be executed.

Backyard and corridor, Wang Xiaoliu was checking Mrs. Zhang's body on the ground, but Wang Zhi was anxious, "I said, Brother Wang, you must help me this time. If you can't solve the case within one day, I really have to take the family to jump off the cliff."

At this time, Wang Xiaoliu found something on Mrs. Zhang's neck, and Wang Zhi asked, "What is this?"

"Let's talk about it later, arrest Pei Yu'e and ask questions." Wang Xiaoliu said, lifting Li Yulian's right hand, and the words "Pei Yu'e" suddenly appeared on the ground.

Wang Zhi was relieved now. Since there was a murderer, he didn't have to jump off the cliff. Soon, all the people from the Zhang family were called to the hall.

Wang Zhi asked, "Where is Pei Yu'e?"

A woman came out of the crowd. She said, "Sir, I am Pei Yu'e."

Wang Zhi said, "Come on, take this murderer and take it away."

"Wait a minute, why did you say this? Although I have some conflicts with Li Yulian, I haven't killed her yet. Why do you think I am the murderer?" Pei Yu'e said without being humble or arrogant.

Wang Zhi said, "Hmph, don't think I don't know. 10 years ago, you and Zhang Wen were childhood sweethearts and were preparing to get married. Zhang Wen suddenly lost his family. In one day, the wealth of the family was gone. Because you didn't want to live a hard life, you took away all the jewelry in the family and never came back. That Zhang Wenxing was like a beggar, almost frozen to death in the heavy snow. It was Li Yulian who brought him home. Later, Zhang Wen suddenly made a fortune, and then he had a fortune. I have a wealthy life now.

And you, after leaving Zhang Wen, married the second young master of the Zhou family in Lishui City. But half a year ago, the Zhou family was in trouble, so you took Jinyin back to this Yong'an City. Using Zhang Wen's old love for you, married into the Zhang family again and became a concubine. What I said is right? "

Wang Zhi's words immediately caused everyone to exclaim, and they couldn't help but look at Pei Yu'e. No one expected that Pei Yu'e would have such a historical story.

But Pei Yu'e said indifferently, "So what."

Wang Zhi said, "After you married into the Zhang family, Li Yulian was targeted everywhere. Yushi, you are unwilling to be a concubine just because the concubine has no status and you are not willing to be controlled by Li Yulian, so you killed her and killed her, right?"

Pei Yu'e said, "Please provide evidence."

Wang Zhi said, "You took advantage of Li Yulian's inattention yesterday when Li Yulian was not paying attention." At that time, Li Yulian was killed with a dagger, but Li Yulian did not die immediately. She used the last time to write your name on the ground. In order to prevent you from discovering, she also covered her hand with her hands and said, "Why did you kill Li Yulian?" "

Pei Yu'e said, "My sir, have you forgotten that Li Yulian is a farmer and she is not literate, so how could she write my name? It's obviously someone is framed and framed."

"Ah? Ignore?" It's Wang Zhi's turn to be surprised.

At this time, Zhang Wen finally came out and said, "Sir, Madam is illiterate. I can be sure of this. Please find the murderer as soon as possible."

Wang Zhi was a little embarrassed. At this time, Wang Xiaoliu walked in. He held a piece of cloth in his right hand, and there was a small insect on it. He gave the insects to everyone present and identified them one by one.

Everyone else said they didn't know each other. At this time, the servant Xiaoliu stood up and said, "Sir, this is the larva of the butterfly. ”

Wang Xiaoliu asked, “Have you seen him? "

Xiaoliu said, "Yes, butler Zhang likes to collect butterflies on weekdays, which leads to many larvae in the house. "

Wang Xiaoliu was thinking. This was what he found in Li Yulian's clothes. Could it be that Li Yulian had been to Butler Zhang's house and stayed for a long time.

Wang Xiaoliu asked Butler Zhang to come out and ask questions. At this time, Xiaoliu said, "Sir, Butler Zhang had already complained about illness and returned to his hometown 3 days ago. "

Wang Xiaoliu then asked Xiaoliu, "Have you ever seen Li Yulian enter Butler Zhang's room? "

Xiaoliu was a little reluctant to speak but stopped. He glanced at Zhang Wen, and Zhang Wen waved his hand lightly and said, "It's okay, tell the truth." "

Xiaoliu then said, "Mrs. I often go to Butler Zhang when the master is away, and I stay for an hour. "

Wang Zhi shouted, "This butler Zhang must be the murderer. He was worried that Mr. Zhang would find out about his affairs with him and Li Yulian, so he took sick leave and returned to his hometown, and then secretly lurked back to kill Li Yulian, so that he could make absent proof of . People came, and the whole city was searching for Butler Zhang and brought him to see me. "

" is not good, something big is not good. "At this time, a servant ran in and he said, "Butler Zhang, Butler Zhang was killed. "

The dry well in the backyard, butler Zhang's body was caught. Wang Xiaoliu took a brief look and knew about it. The cause of Mr. Zhang's death was initially determined to be that he was strangled by a rope and died of suffocation. Then he was thrown into the dry well. Time inference is that the time when Mr. Zhang was killed was still before Li Yulian.

Wang Xiaoliu was nothing, and the most depressing thing was Wang Zhi. Whenever he talked about it and found the murderer, he always found that the murderer had someone else. .

At this time, when the servant lifted the body of Butler Zhang, a piece of gold cake fell from him, which was as big as a copper coins.

Wang Xiaoliu picked it up and found that no one was paying attention, so he stuffed it into his sleeve.

He told Wang Zhi, "The murderer is Butler Zhang. This person has an affair with Li Yulian and committed suicide for fear of crime. Let's break up and close the case. "

Wang Zhi was confused when he heard this. He was about to refute Wang Xiaoliu, but was stopped by Wang Xiaoliu and pulled him out of the Zhang Mansion. Then, Wang Zhi also ordered his subordinates to withdraw.

Back to the county government, Wang Zhi was full of questions and wanted to ask Wang Xiaoliu, but Wang Xiaoliu smiled mysteriously and said, "I already know who the murderer is, just come with me." "

Wang Zhi was overjoyed and said, "Brother Wang, my family's life depends entirely on you." "

On the evening, Wang Xiaoliu and his friends hurried to a dense forest below the hillside of the South Mountain. There was a small cave deep in the dense forest. The few people were waiting above the cave.

Wang Zhi didn't understand what was going on, so he asked Wang Xiaoliu, "It's been 5 days, there's nothing. If you wait any longer, it's dawn. "

Wang Xiaoliu said, "Brother, do you remember a little thief you caught in the Nan Temple half a month ago. "

Wang Zhi said, "Of course I know that the kid is just a beggar who actually carries a big bag of jewelry to buy steamed buns, which scares the owner of the steamed bun shop very much. The kid has also lost his luck. When he was sleeping in a dilapidated temple, he kicked a hole in the wall and fell out a large bag of jewelry. Why am I not so lucky? "

Wang Xiaoliu said, "Beggars are second, mainly the jewelry, and there is this golden cake with Zhou engraved on it. As far as I know, in this area of ​​ Nanshan Temple, there was an Zhou Kingdom during the Tang Dynasty. The King of Zhou liked to collect gold cakes. "

Wang Zhi said, "What do you mean is that there is a treasure buried by the King of Zhou here? "

Wang Xiaoliu smiled and stopped talking.

At this time, a constable suddenly shouted in a low voice, "Brother, someone is there."

Some people looked down, but saw a weak figure walking out of the cave. She was dragging a big bag behind her, heavy.

Wang Xiaoliu said softly, "Catch people." "

Wang Zhi was the most active, and he shouted immediately, "Stop, don't run away. "

The man below heard someone, and immediately threw down the bag and ran into the woods. Soon there was no sign of people. After chasing him, Wang Zhi actually came back and said to Wang Xiaoliu, "It's over, the person ran away, he didn't catch him. "

Wang Xiaoliu was not angry either because he wanted this effect. He ordered people to go down and open the bag first. There were actually a bunch of jewelry inside. There were seven golden cakes alone, and the others were some pearls.

Wang Zhi widened his eyes and couldn't believe it, "My God, there are too many of them. I have never seen so many jewelry in my life. This is really a treasure. "

Wang Xiaoliu left three people to guard the entrance of the cave, and took Wang Zhi to run to the city. Soon, a few people came to Zhang's mansion and ordered everyone to come out and stand in the hall.

Wang Xiaoliu suddenly grabbed Pei Yu'e's hand and said, "You are the murderer." "

"? "Wang Zhi was a little confused and said, "Brother Wang, Pei Yu'e is not the murderer, she was framed. "

Wang Xiaoliu said, "Madam, don't you admit it yet?" "

Pei Yu'e said calmly, "I don't know what you are talking about?" "

Wang Xiaoliu raised Pei Yu'e's hand and said, "Please look, there is soil in this hand and scratches on the nails. Moreover, the most important thing is that there are traces on the palm of your hand, which is left when pulling heavy objects. "

Wang Zhi suddenly realized, "Oh, I understand, the one at the entrance of the cave is you. "

Pei Yu'e looked at her hand in surprise, but unexpectedly revealed a flaw here, "When did you suspect it was mine? "

Wang Xiaoliu said, "Let me tell you a story. Half a year ago, a man named Zhang He came to the Zhang Mansion. Through hard work, he quickly gained the trust of Mr. Zhang and sat in the housekeeper. This was not his real purpose. His real purpose was to get close to his wife Li Yulian.

Later, through all kinds of sweet words, he finally gained the trust of Li Yulian and promised to take Li Yulian away. However, all Zhang He wanted was the treasure of the Li family, so he left on sick leave, which made Li Yulian very angry, but she didn't dare to tell Mr. Zhang, so she prepared to go back to her parents' home and ask her cousin to help her get rid of Butler Zhang to prevent future troubles. ”

Pei Yu'e said, “After you say, this is all the matter between Li Yulian and Butler Zhang, what does it have to do with me? "

Wang Xiaoliu continued, "Of course it has something to do with you. This morning, I asked someone to go to Lishui City and brought back a portrait. Please see, Mrs., who is the person in the painting? "

Xiao Liu is the most verbal, and he said, "Isn't this Butler Zhang?" It's just that the person in the portrait has no beard. "

Wang Xiaoliu said, "Yes, this person is Housekeeper Zhang, but he also has another identity, that is, the second young master of the Zhou family in Lishui City, that is, Pei Yu'e's husband. "

As soon as this said, everyone was uproared, especially Mr. Zhang. His face shook for a moment, and he was obviously very angry.

Wang Xiaoliu continued, "This time, the second young master of the Zhou family changed his name to Zhang He and followed Pei Yu'e to Yong'an City. By chance, they heard about the history of the Zhang family's fortune and expected that the Zhang family must have obtained the treasure, so they set up a plan.

There are two points in this. One is that Pei Yu'e married Mr. Zhang to obtain Mr. Zhang's secret. On the other side is Zhang He trying to get close to Li Yulian to get Li Yulian's secret. Obviously, Mr. Zhang didn't know any treasure, and Zhang He was a fanatical child, so it was easy to deal with Li Yulian. After he got the exact location of the treasure from Li Yulian, he left Zhang's mansion. "

Speaking of this, Wang Xiaoliu stopped talking, but Mr. Zhang began to question Pei Yu'e, "Do you think Li Yulian was you killed? Why are you so cruel?"

Pei Yu'e suddenly pushed Master Zhang away and said, "Yes, I killed Li Yulian, but Zhang He was not killed by me, he was strangled to death by Li Yulian. "

Wang Xiaoliu nodded in a clear way, and this made sense. He asked Pei Yu'e again, "Then why did you kill Li Yulian? "

Pei Yu'e snorted coldly and said, "At first, I was indeed obsessed with treasures, but after I married into the Zhang Mansion, I was very content with my current life. I didn't want to live such a displaced life anymore, so gradually, I no longer paid attention to the matter of treasures.

I told Zhang He about this and decided to break it up with him, but Zhang He refused to give up. He threatened me that as long as I dared to leave him, he would tell Zhang Wen about us. I was worried that the matter would be exposed, so I wrote a letter to expose Zhang He and Li Yulian. Sure enough, when Li Yulian went to find Zhang He again, he found the letter under the bed. Li Yulian really fell into a trap. She bought sweat medicine, gave it to Zhang He, and then strangled it to death and threw it into a dry well. "

Wang Xiaoliu was puzzled, "Since Zhang He has been removed, why did you kill Li Yulian? She doesn't know about you and Zhang He. "

Pei Yu'e suddenly shouted loudly, "Don't know? How could she not know? In order to show off in front of Li Yulian, Zhang He had told her about me long ago. She had known it a long time ago, how could I keep her? "

Wang Zhi suddenly asked, "What's the matter with the three words Pei Yu'e on the ground? "

Pei Yu'e said, "I know that people outside are saying that I am not in harmony with Li Yulian, so I took this opportunity to write the three words Pei Yu'e on the ground, making people think that someone is plagiarizing me so as to get rid of suspicion. "

The matter came to this point, and the truth finally came out. Wang Xiaoliu sighed, waved his hand, and asked someone to take Pei Yu'e away. After the few people left, Xiaoliu quietly came to Mr. Zhang's door and walked in. Mr. Zhang took out a golden cake and handed it to Xiaoliu, saying, "You did a good job, this is what you promised you. Go back and get a wife, don't come back again. "

" is. "Xiao Liu put the golden cake in his arms and disappeared in the darkness, forever.
