Datang: God-level son-in-law, salted fish will become stronger

Qin Mu and the others rushed to the first scene of the crime against the rising sun.

In the western suburbs of Luoyang City, Luoqiao on the Luoshui River.

Due to the seriousness of the case, Gao Yingzong immediately sealed off Luoqiao within a five-mile radius.

Qin Mu and the others passed the checkpoint and came to the riverside.

The course of the case is roughly that when the three carriages escorting the military pay came to the Luo Bridge, there was a gust of wind. The horses were frightened and rushed into the Luo River. All 60 taels of official silver fell into the water and then disappeared out of thin air.

On the quaint Luoqiao, there is no trace.

Everyone went to the bridge and looked towards Luoshui. The river was rushing, but no matter how urgent it was, it would not be able to swallow 60 taels of official silver.

Cheng Yaojin strolled on the bridge, looked around, and frowned, "Master son-in-law, do you think this is so evil? 60 silver, all fell into the water, and all happened to disappear, I... ...Why do I not believe it so much?"

The corner of Qin Mu's mouth slightly raised, and he said with a smile, "So, the case is defined as being caused by monsters. Otherwise, how can we explain the 60 silver?"

The words fall.

Waiting for people to react.

Qin Mu jumped off the Luo Bridge and into Luoshui. He wanted to see if this Luoshui could still hold the Dragon King?

Seeing Qin Mu jumping down, Xue Rengui also jumped down.

Cheng Yaojingang wanted to follow, but Li Er grabbed him, "He's going into the water to investigate the case, what are you doing?"

"Ah? Hehe..." Cheng Yaojin smiled awkwardly, "I...Isn't this just thinking of going down to help investigate the case?"

"Investigate the case?" Li Er glanced at him, "You are the greatest help to them by waiting on the bridge."

Cheng Yaojin: ...

Luoshui.

Qin Mu and Xue Rengui had already dived to the bottom of the water, and the water under the bridge was about one foot deep.

After such a long time, the bottom of the water has long been flushed.

Apart from fish, shrimp and some algae, there is nothing else in Luoshui.

Qin Mu and Xue Rengui dived three times and found nothing, not even a silver hair.

Afterwards, the two went ashore and changed into clean clothes.

"How about the son-in-law? Is there any gain?" Cheng Yaojin hurried up and asked, he was quite interested in this matter.

Seeing him questioning, Li Er didn't say anything, and then looked at Qin Mu.

Qin Mu shook his head lightly, "No, I got nothing."

"Nothing?" Cheng Yaojin's eyes widened, unbelievable, in his eyes, Qin Mu is omnipotent.

Li Er's face was gloomy, and he lowered his eyes and said, "There's nothing at the bottom of the river? Can the 60 taels of silver melt in the water?"

melt?

After hearing this, Qin Mu's eyes shone brightly, and he looked at Li Er.

Li Er looked at his eyes, startled in his heart, "You...why are you looking at me like that?"

Qin Mu smiled and said, "Your Majesty, you may have been right. The 60 taels of silver might have melted in the water."

"Ah!?" Li Er hesitated for a moment, and then said in a deep voice, "Nonsense! That money will melt so well? Do you think I'm a three-year-old child?"

Qin Mu smiled, but didn't answer his question, "Whether it will melt or not, we'll know when we ask."

Afterwards, everyone returned to Luoyang City.

Luoyang Prison.

Gao Yingzong is waiting here for the arrival of Qin Mu and the others. He stayed up all night last night, if the case cannot be solved.

Li Er must cut off his head to sacrifice the flag.

60 taels of silver, even if he was emptied, he couldn't afford it.

moment.

Qin Mu and the others rushed back and entered Luoyang Prison.

Since the escorting official was Li Dingren, Minister of the Ministry of Household Affairs, who was a relative of the emperor, Gao Yingzong only verbally interrogated him and did not dare to punish anyone.

He originally thought that since Li Dingren was a relative of the emperor, it was impossible for the money to disappear, so he didn't take this matter too seriously, and only regarded it as a case of ink corruption.

Later he discovered that everyone's confessions were surprisingly consistent, and there was no suspicion of collusion, which was terrible.

When he was at a loss, Li Er and Qin Mu rushed over.

But they didn't come here for this matter, they just happened to pass by, which made Gao Yingzong speechless.

If he wants to know that Li Er is coming, he might as well report the matter directly to the imperial court.

Now not only is he dereliction of duty, but he also concealed and failed to report, and he almost didn't become an accomplice.

It is learned that Li Er and others have returned from Luoqiao.

Gao Yingzong hastily went out to greet her, "Please refer to Your Majesty for the humble position, and see the son-in-law."

Li Er waved his hand casually, "Lord Gao, how is the case investigation going? Has there been any progress?"

"Ah!?" Hearing Li Er's cynicism, Gao Ying was startled, and hurriedly said: "No...no progress yet."

"Hmph..." Li Er snorted coldly in disdain, and stepped into the big prison.

After the case, he had to remove Gao Yingzong from his post.

Followed by.

Qin Mu said in a deep voice: "Lord Gao, please escort everyone who is in charge of escorting the military pay to the interrogation room in order according to their official positions, from the oldest to the youngest."

"I'm going to ask them to find out what happened that day."

He didn't have much opinion on Gao Yingzong, he just investigated the case.

Let Li Er, the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty, deal with the rest of the bad things.

"Yes, Prince Consort." Gao Yingzong hastily replied, and then ran towards the prison.

now.

He could only pin his hopes on Qin Mu.

Chapter 865: Interrogation (5/5)

Luoyang Prison.

Interrogation room.

Qin Mu sat upright, with a cup of tea on the table, which was steaming.

Xue Rengui stood beside Qin Mu with a serious face.

moment.

Li Dingren, the servant of the household department, was brought in.

Meet Qin Mu.

Li Dingren hurriedly saluted, "The guilty minister has seen the son-in-law."

Qin Mu nodded, but said nothing.

but.

Qin Mu's attitude did not arouse Li Dingren's dissatisfaction at all. Although he is a relative of the emperor and Li Er's cousin, he is not qualified to challenge Qin Mu.

He knew in his heart that Qin Mu would not be used to this and that of him, if he was dissatisfied, if he was beaten, he would have to swallow his broken teeth in his stomach.

The name of Lord Consort Shura is not just blown out

After Li Dingren sat down, he quietly waited for Qin Mu's interrogation.

Although he was the biggest suspect in this case, he didn't panic at all. He firmly believed that it was a monster, so no one could do anything to him.

Besides, he always thought so.

Paused.

Qin Mu looked at Li Dingren, and said slowly, "Tell me how the military pay fell into the water that day, and don't miss any details."

Li Dingren nodded.

"It's the son-in-law."

"The guilty minister remembers that it was about a quarter of the hour on August 60. The guilty minister and General Duan Yufang led [-] troops and escorted three carriages, totaling [-] taels of official silver, and marched towards Luoyang City."

"Weichen and General Duan Yufang walked in front, three carriages followed behind, two hundred armored soldiers guarded the sides of the convoy, and the rest of the armored soldiers lined up behind."

"While passing the Luo Bridge, a gust of evil wind suddenly blew up. Afraid that the carriage might slip, the guilty minister hurried over, but the horse that was trying to pull the carriage was frightened and bumped wildly. Before the driver came, he could control it Stop the carriage, and the horse will pull the official silver and fall into the water."

"Afterwards, General Duan Yufang led the soldiers and jumped into the river to get the silver. Unexpectedly, the official silver that fell into the water... disappeared out of thin air, leaving only some empty boxes."

"Afterwards, we stayed where we were and sent someone to find Captain Gao. Later, Captain Gao sealed off the scene until today."

"My son-in-law, although the guilty minister is unwilling to believe it, but this matter... this matter is too strange, it's not like...it's not artificial..."

Li Dingren said, his eyes were still full of fear, full of disbelief.

He didn't have the nerve to speak out about the monster's troubles.

This means that Li Er is not there.

If Li Er was there, he wouldn't even dare to say anything strange.

Followed by.

He looked at Qin Mu and murmured, "My son-in-law, what the guilty minister said is true, and I dare not hide anything."

The words fall.

Qin Mu nodded, "Okay, you can go."

I heard this.

Li Dingren froze slightly, he didn't expect that Qin Mu would let him go so easily.

Seeing that he didn't move.

Qin Mu smiled and said, "Why, you don't want to leave?"

"Hehe..." Li Dingren smiled awkwardly, "What did the son-in-law say? The guilty minister still expects the son-in-law to acquit the guilty minister. How dare you waste your time."

Subsequently.

Li Dingren left the interrogation room and was escorted back to his cell.

"Rengui, do you think what he said is true or false?" Qin Mu glanced at Xue Rengui who was beside him.

Xue Rengui thought for a moment, then shook his head, "It's hard to say, but there is one thing I don't understand."

"what?"

"He answered so smoothly, as if the answer was fluent, as if he had memorized it, and his desire to get rid of the crime was not strong, as if the case had no solution."

Qin Mu nodded, "So there are only two results. He did it, but he was confident that he would never be found out. He didn't do it. He didn't mean to be nervous, and he firmly believed that it couldn't be artificial. "

Uh......

Xue Rengui discovered that they discussed loneliness.

Subsequently.

Qin Mu also interrogated Duan Yufang and other key figures and the coachman.

However, everyone's answers were surprisingly unanimous, the wind was evil, the horse was frightened, and the silver evaporated.

What Qin Mu can conclude now is that this must be some kind of trick, similar to water-removing gold or metallic sodium.

But Qin Mu really doesn't know anything about physics and chemistry, he doesn't understand the principle, and he doesn't know how to make it.

So everything today is his inferences and clues, but these are not evidence, no one can be convicted, at best, everyone can only be blamed for dereliction of duty.

Qin Mu was not reconciled, he must find out who was behind the scenes.

Gao Yingzong, Duan Yufang, Li Dingren...
