Chapter 1373: The case is indeed closed

Yu Zhaoan's memorial did not block the Embroidered Uniform Guards' pace of investigating the case.

The Embroidered Uniform Guards and the Liushan Sect found the murderer one after another.

A prodigal son in a village on the river outside the city, surnamed Liang, known as Liang Erlang.

The reason he is called a prodigal son is because his family was originally very wealthy. But because he was obsessed with the path of martial arts, he invested a lot of resources. Resources are exchanged for money. The money was spent, so he started selling fields, land, and shops, selling until only an empty old house was left.

His parents were also angered to death by him.

His sisters and brothers didn't associate with him and broke off relations with him.

However, this prodigal son still has some talent, and is now a seventh-rank martial artist. It is said that he often serves as a temporary consultant for some wealthy families, helping to solve some troubles and earning money.

The Embroidered Uniform Guards rushed to the village on the river for the first time and broke into the old Liang house.

The house was empty, with only a few simple wooden furniture left, not even a ghost shadow.

It wasn't until they broke into the innermost bedroom that they saw a corpse, which had been dead for a long time. After identification by villagers and the Liang family, it was determined that the deceased was the murderer Liang Erlang.

"Dead!"

"Is it silencing or suicide out of fear of crime?"

The brothers of the Liushan Sect who arrived later stared at the Embroidered Uniform Guards with suspicious eyes.

The Embroidered Uniform Guards glared at them. They only arrived an hour earlier, where would they have time to silence them. Besides, they are all insiders, and the situation of the corpse can be seen at a glance, at least dead for a day.

"Investigate carefully. Get a car, and transport the body back later."

"Lord, what crime did Liang Erlang commit? Since he is dead, it should be up to the family to collect the body and arrange for burial."

"This person is involved in a case, we must take the body away for investigation. After the investigation is over, we will notify your family to collect the body and arrange for burial."

"This... people are already dead, not allowing burial, this is not appropriate." Villagers and the Liang family stood outside the door, discussing carefully.

The village head came forward and dared to negotiate with the Embroidered Uniform Guards, hoping to accommodate one or two. Simple concept, people are dead, they must be buried in time. Even if everyone doesn't like Liang Erlang being a prodigal son, he is a villager after all. And, in the past few years, Liang Erlang has been quite peaceful doing errands for wealthy families. It's just that he earns a lot and spends a lot, and has no spare money in his hands.

"It's not that we don't allow burial! But wait for us to investigate clearly, then notify you to collect the body and arrange for burial."

"Why talk nonsense with them. Embroidered Uniform Guards handle cases, how can others question it. Old man, be sensible and retreat with people, otherwise don't blame the knife in my hand for being too sharp."

One sings the red face, one sings the white face.

The villagers were terrified and retreated one after another, not daring to block the door and look.

Fortunately, the villagers did not enter the bedroom, and the scene was preserved quite completely.

People from the two yamen, each investigated.

The Embroidered Uniform Guards received orders from above not to make things difficult for the brothers of the Liushan Sect, and not to block them. Each does their own thing!

Both sides were also peaceful.

There was no idea of exchanging investigation conclusions, and after the end, they left each other.

The brothers of the Liushan Sect came back and went straight to the Heavenly Prison to meet Chen Guanlou, telling him the news that the murderer was dead.

Chen Guanlou clicked his tongue twice, "I estimated that this situation would occur, but I didn't expect him to really die. How did he die, did you see clearly?"

"It should be suicide by taking poison."

"Taking poison by himself or forced to take poison?"

"Hard to say. The scene looks like taking poison by himself, but the possibility of being forced to take poison cannot be ruled out."

"Listening to the villagers, Liang Erlang is extremely stubborn and particularly obsessed with the pursuit of martial arts. With his personality, he shouldn't end himself. After all, he hasn't completed his pursuit of the martial arts path. I tend to think he was forced to take poison. After the coroner finishes the autopsy, there will be preliminary conclusions."

"The murderer is dead, how do you plan to investigate next?"

Several people exchanged a look, and finally said solemnly: "The next investigation, unless there is an order from the Ministry of Justice, it is difficult to continue."

Chen Guanlou nodded clearly, found the murderer, and next is to find the mastermind behind the scenes. Without the order of the Ministry of Justice, the Liushan Sect dare not mess around. It is estimated that the Embroidered Uniform Guards will also close the case.

The murderer is dead, what else to investigate.

Mastermind behind the scenes?

Where did the mastermind come from? Is there evidence that Liang Erlang was instructed by someone? No evidence, then the conclusion is that Zhang Yushi Niu offended Liang Erlang unintentionally. Liang Erlang, because of private hatred, retaliated and killed Zhang Yushi Niu.

Writing the closing report like this is simply perfect. The evidence chain is complete!

"Thank you all for your hard work these days! This case ends here."

He offered silver, sincerely thanked the brothers of the Liushan Sect for their help, and at least had a complete investigation report in his hand.

"Thank you, Jiang Jiang Yucheng Chen. If you still want to investigate the person behind the scenes, as long as Jiang Jiang Yucheng Chen can ask for an order from the Ministry of Justice, we will do our best to investigate this case."

"No need!"

Chen Guanlou sent away the brothers of the Liushan Sect with a smile.

The next investigation doesn't need him to worry, the Hou Fu will handle it itself.

He handed the investigation report to the Hou Fu, and Chen Guanqiang was very satisfied.

Another generous reward.

The imperial court is secretly discussing the immigration strategy, as for Zhang Yushi Niu's death and the suspect Hou Fu, no one has impeached it. Even the Censorate has given up the idea.

Plus the Embroidered Uniform Guards gave a closing report, sure enough, this case was left unsettled in the end.

To show his attitude and deter petty people, Emperor Emperor Jian Shi ordered the corpse of the murderer Liang Erlang to be whipped. He also wanted to implicate the Liang family, but fortunately, he was persuaded. The reason is barely counted as ready-made, the Liang family separated from Liang Erlang, and even wrote a break-off letter.

The Liang family didn't know, the whole family walked through the gate of hell.

Thank the imperial court for having a few loyal people who can persuade Emperor Emperor Jian Shi's murderous heart.

Afterwards, the Liang family wanted to collect the body, but were persuaded.

"Don't collect the body, don't collect the body. Leave quickly, I'm afraid your life will not be guaranteed."

A sentence, scared the Liang family pale, two legs trembling, fleeing in a hurry. Never come to the capital again! At least not come to the capital for a few years.

Too terrible!

Collecting a body might cost your life.

The case seems to end here.

However, how can the Hou Fu easily let go of the person behind the scenes.

The Embroidered Uniform Guards and the Liushan Sect stopped the investigation, but the Hou Fu's investigation is still continuing.

In the court, the immigration strategy has not yet been discussed, and a certain commander of the Bingma Division suddenly died at home. Immediately after, an official of the Ministry of Personnel drank flower wine and fell into the river on the way home and drowned.

Two officials died, because they were both accidents, so they did not attract the attention of the court. Each yamen gave a pension and that was it.

However, the death of the two officials shocked some people.

"The Hou Fu is simply lawless. A dignified court official, killed as soon as he said. Is there any court in his eyes? I think the Hou Fu will rebel sooner or later!"

"Speak carefully!"

Xie Mansion.

Xie Changling is pondering the immigration strategy, and several party members under his banner are noisy in his ears, saying that the Hou Fu is

He reminded him, "If there is no evidence, do not say any more. Both officials died due to accidents; do not attach yourselves to the Hou Fu."

"Minister Xie, you know full well that all of this was done by the Hou Fu, so why speak up for them? Chen Guanfu's methods are far too vicious. When the Marquis of Pingjiang was in the capital, he did not act like this."
