crush the rich

Yue Ke listened to the newsboy's yelling, and suspected that her ears had made a mistake.After all, it's not a story, how can there be such a good thing in reality, the Yan family just died yesterday, and the hero's soul manifested, bringing this vicious strict manager with him?

Yin Lian was much calmer than Yue Ke, and waved to find a newspaper boy, gave him two big coins, and said, "Give me one of the two newspapers!"

But the newsboy said, "Sir, I want three Wen."

Yin Lian asked: "Have you raised the price yet?"

The newsboy said with a smile, "I charge two cents for this special issue, and one penny for the special offer for two copies. It is a special issue printed out urgently, so the price is a bit higher. The gentlemen of the newspaper office have to charge some hard work for overtime, right?"

Yin Lian then gave them another two pennies, and said, "It will cost you an extra penny, and the extra penny is a tip. Go!"

The newsboy immediately responded happily, and specially took out two newspapers that looked relatively new and dust-free from the middle, and gave them to Yin Lian.

A penny doesn’t seem like much, and they can’t even buy a newspaper, but in fact these newsboys may have to sell more than a dozen newspapers to earn a penny. If there is any loss, they may lose some of their earned reward , so he is naturally happy to have free tips.

He Mingyue was very envious, and said: "It's great, the capital can still sell newspapers. We don't even have a newspaper office there, and the gentlemen's newspapers are all mailed over."

Yin Lian rubbed her head vigorously, and said, "Isn't it good to be a little book boy for Mr. Yue? Do you need to envy her?"

He Mingyue said hehehe, "I don't envy now... I used to be envious."

Yue Ke couldn't help but softened his expression, but soon became serious again, pulled a newspaper and looked at each other with Yin Lian.

While they were watching the matter, the Regent's House was also in session.Fu Yin came in a hurry, entered the house but did not report the situation immediately.

The regent was impatient, and asked directly: "Speak directly! Have you found out who has tampered with it!?"

Fu Yin said hesitantly: "We checked Yan Cai's body and the traces on the drum, and found no abnormal traces on the body. After Wu Zuo conducted an autopsy, there was no sign of poisoning. But the drum ..."

The regent said: "If you hesitate to speak again, I will send you to see Yan Cai!"

Fu Yin immediately panicked and stuttered, but at least he didn't hesitate, and said: "There is no trace of being pushed on the outside of the drum, and the traces of dust on the back are also natural. I don't see any fingerprints. The doctor of the Ministry of punishment The drum was cut open, and a bloody handprint was found inside... The bloody handprint didn't look big, it was a woman's handprint, and there were fingerprints... We have sent it to compare with Yan's body, I don't know the outcome yet..."

But looking at his appearance, it seemed that he already felt that it was Yan's ghost who pushed the drum this time.

The regent obviously didn't like this speculation very much. He was instantly angry and slammed the table, saying, "What a joke! Ghosts can still have fingerprints!? Are you here to tell a joke!?"

Fu Yin said: "How dare I lie to you? The drum was under the watchful eyes of everyone from the time it was taken off to the time it was cut open. There was not even a single gap before it was cut open. It's completely dry, but the blood color is still clear... not to mention that the Dengwen drum is extremely firm, once cut it is difficult to recover, and there is absolutely no chance of secretly tampering with it."

Hearing what he said, the regent's anger dropped a bit, replaced by a chill from the bottom up.

He said, "Could it be that there are really ghosts in this world?"

Li Laixi listened, and at first he felt that Yin Lian had tampered with it.There has always been some mystery about this girl, especially the two of them had such a conversation last night.

But now it sounds like this matter is not easy.If Yin Lian did it, he wondered how the other party did it.

He asked, "Is it possible that the drum has been replaced?"

Fu Yin said: "That is the Dengwen Drum. When it was made, the best materials and the most skilled craftsmen were used. And it stood in front of the yamen, and you can see it when you go in and out. If it is replaced, it will be replaced. Someone will definitely notice something unusual."

Li Laixi asked: "What about Yan's natal family? Or her sister's husband's family? What about Yan's servants?"

Fu Yin said: "Stay where they should be. Yan's family and her sister's husband's family last night watched for her and prepared for her funeral. Some of the Yan family's servants were also there, and others were guarding the Yan family's house. ...The Yan family has not been buried yet."

The regent said: "The whole family is dead, why don't you have a woman with a backbone, and I haven't seen someone who turned into a ghost and came up to do something practical... During his lifetime, each was more arrogant than the other."

He said this, but he was a little annoyed and incoherent.

With the virtues of the Yan family, if they were given a chance to become evil spirits, they would be even more disrespectful and stir up trouble than the Yan family.At that time, the regent will only have more headaches than now.

Li Laixi asked again: "Is it possible that some new technology was used? Didn't someone develop a method to change the color of the potion when it encounters acid..."

Fu Yin said: "I also asked. Wu Zuo said that he also knew the method, and he must not do this thing. Moreover, the difference between human blood and potion is huge, and it can be easily distinguished. The blood is not chicken blood Duck blood and pig blood are very likely to be human blood at present, but because it has been coagulated for a period of time, it is difficult to confirm whether it is the blood of a rare animal."

"The scribes in the capital are all veteran scribes with rich experience, and they still have this ability."

Hearing this, the regent felt that it was more difficult to breathe. He looked around for a while, and suddenly aimed at Li Laixi, stretched out his hand and threw the pen in his hand at him.Li Laixi avoided it instinctively, and immediately held back, letting the pen draw an ink mark and some red marks on his face.

"It's all you!" The regent yelled angrily, "How dare you hide!"

"At that time, I said that this slave named Yan Cai was a troublesome one, and he and the Yan family, including the careless Yan family, should be dealt with together. You just said that you can't chill the hearts of your subordinates! Now you see how to solve this matter Bar!"

Li Laixi was hit by a pen and pushed again, but she was not angry, and said, "My lord, if the Yan family really has the ability to transform ghosts, and if they had dealt with their family at that time, she might not seek strict management now." It's something, and I'm coming to find you, my lord. She is still looking for Yan Cai now, leaving us with room to deal with it."

After hearing this, the regent felt that it was the same thing, and his anger subsided a bit, and he said, "How do you deal with it?"

Li Laixi said: "In fact, the matter of the Yan family has little to do with the prince. But the female ghost may not be reasonable. Now that she has become a female ghost, we will find professionals to solve it... Please ask the master of Qiushan Temple and Changqing Guan The Taoist priest will come to be a mage for a few games, and it will be fine to save the female ghost."

The regent frowned and said: "This kind of death row prisoner who kills her husband and poisons her son, needs this king to save her—"

As a result, at this time, someone outside came to report.

It turned out that the person who went to confirm the fingerprints came back, and the government office obeyed the previous instructions of the governor, and sent someone over in time to inform the investigation results.

"...The fingerprints are exactly the same, but there is no trace of blood on the fingers of the corpse. Someone has been guarding them all night, and there is no sign of being moved away..."

Yan's body was guarded last night.Moreover, her fingers were already stiff, there was no blood stains on her hands, and there were no bloodshots in her nails, and there were obvious scratches on the inside of the Dengwen drum!

All this is too mysterious.There was a creepy meaning behind the people in the room, and the regent did not refute Li Laixi immediately, and immediately ordered: "Go find the monks and Taoist priests! Send people now! Find a monk who is really capable." Taoist priest, arrange the ritual as soon as possible!"

Li Laixi said: "Also, we'd better appease Yan's family."

Regent: "...You arrange it!"

Li Laixi stood up voluntarily, wiped the ink marks on his face casually, and went out to make arrangements.

After inviting monks and Taoist priests and arranging the time for the ceremony, he dismissed his subordinates and went to the house where Yin Lian lived.

Compared with the jittery people in the capital today, the atmosphere inside Zeng's house is warm and there is laughter from time to time, which makes Li Laixi feel quite unhappy.

Yin Lian heard that Li Laixi was visiting, but she explained to Yue Ke and took him to another room.Li Laixi put on a cloak this time instead of a military uniform.Seeing that the visitor was a handsome young man, but not Shen Lv, Yue Ke was quite curious and had some charming guesses in his heart, but Yin Lian hinted with his eyes and expressions not to peek.

Although she didn't know the reason, Yue Ke was always reasonable, so she retracted her head and closed the window to show her innocence.

Li Laixi said, "You get on well with her?"

Yin Lian said: "Yes. Keke is a very cute person."

Li Laixi said: "I thought that the one who can get along well with you is probably a lady with a strong heart and great ambition, but Mr. Yue looks quite different from this description."

Yin Lian said: "That's because you misunderstood me, sir."

After walking into the house like this, Li Laixi turned around and closed the door, and then asked Yin Lian, "How did you do it?"

Yin Lian showed a questioning expression.

Li Laixi didn't bother to play tricks on her, so she asked straight to the point: "How did you do the matter of Yan Cai!?"

Yin Lian smiled immediately: "If the officer is talking about the matter of Yan Guanshi being smashed to death by a falling Dengwen drum, I saw it in today's newspaper." Then she looked at Li Laixi, changed the subject, and asked, " But what does that have to do with me?"

Li Laixi said: "I just told you those words last night, and today Yan Cai was killed by an 'evil ghost'..." He reread the pronunciation of the word "evil ghost", "How can such a coincidence happen."

Yin Lian stared at Li Laixi, and Li Laixi stared back at her. The silence lasted for a long time, and Li Laixi seemed to be staring at her to admit it.

Yin Lian sighed, and said: "If you have to say that this matter has something to do with me, I will do one thing..."
