Chapter 174 Mr. Gongsun is charming and suave

Perhaps because that was the last person he saw before his death, Gongsun Zhuoyu had a deep memory.

He couldn't see the other person's face clearly, and couldn't remember his voice. When he was about to die, he could only see a section of his fair neck, with a cinnabar mole under his Adam's apple, as red as blood.Clear and eye-catching in the dark cell.

Although Gongsun Zhuoyu died unluckily in the end, it still did not prevent him from having a good impression of that person.Now that I found out it was Du Lingchun, I was pleasantly surprised and a little bit disbelieving, but thinking about it, it was natural.

All serious crimes in the imperial court were handed over to the Beijing Legal Department for trial. No one except Du Lingchun could think of someone who could casually absolve himself of his guilt in such a tight prison.

Du Lingchun's shoulders hurt from his grip. He frowned calmly and his voice became darker: "Gongsun Zhuoyu——"

Usually when someone calls him by his full name, it means that the other person is angry.

Gongsun Zhuoyu subconsciously let go, reacted, and explained slowly: "I...I tidy up the clothes for the company."

As he said, I didn't see him fixing his clothes, but I saw him taking off his clothes.

Du Lingchun quickly put on his clothes. He couldn't straighten his messy bun and could only hang it on his shoulders.He probably had enough of staying in this noisy place, so he slammed the door and left angrily. As he passed by, a gust of cold wind came from his sleeves.

My mother-in-law, it may affect my career.

Gongsun Zhuoyu hurriedly put on his clothes and saw Du Lingchun's hairpin scattered on the pillow. He thought it would be a pity to throw it away because it was so expensive, so he put it into his sleeve and chased after him.

"Company, company."

As soon as Du Lingchun walked out of the brothel, he saw Gongsun Zhuoyu chasing him out, but because of what had just happened, he felt full of awkwardness and discomfort.Hearing this, he frowned and said in a stiff tone: "Is there anything else?"

Of course, Gongsun Zhuoyu would not offend Du Lingchun, a golden man with a golden thigh. He started to throw blame, and said righteously: "The suspect is shameless, lingers in a brothel, and makes the company suffer such injustice. He really deserves to die. He will be dismissed soon."Catch this person and make the company angry."

If the person named Yu didn't visit the brothel, how could they enter the brothel? If they didn't enter the brothel, how could this happen? After all, it was all the fault of the person named Yu.Anyway, no matter how wrong the world is, it cannot be wrong with Gongsun Zhuoyu.

As soon as these words came out, if Du Lingchun continued to hold on to this matter, it would inevitably appear to be deliberate.

He remained silent for a long time with a cold face, forcibly comforting himself in his heart. They were all men, and it was not an offense. After doing this several times, he finally felt better.Finally, he looked at Gongsun Zhuoyu and said with no emotion at all: "Then I'll wait and see how you catch him."

After saying that, he turned and left.

The guard had been standing in the dark and immediately followed him when he saw this.One of the confidants found that Du Lingchun's bun had fallen down at some point, and all his dark hair fell on his shoulders. He hesitated and said: "Company, what happened just now?"

Du Lingchun hated others talking too much. With a cold glance from his narrow eyes, the latter immediately lowered his head in panic and retreated behind him.

If Gongsun Zhuoyu only suspected that Dr. Yu was involved in the case before, now he is completely sure that the other party is involved in the case.

If the other party just stayed next door and drank tea with his girl Qiongyue, but as soon as he heard that he was next door, he immediately came over to inquire about the situation. Wouldn't it be a guilty conscience and exposing his own weakness?

To complete rigorous reasoning, it is necessary to collect a variety of huge information data.Gongsun Zhuoyu obviously knew very little about Doctor Yu.Seeing that it was getting late, he simply ordered his servants to go and find out information about this person, and he returned to the Bieyuan where the crime occurred.

There must be some missing clues at the crime scene.

Gongsun Zhuoyu rolled up his sleeves, thinking that this bastard named Yu dared to implicate himself even if he just visited a brothel. After solving the case, he would have to deal with it.He can enjoy everything in his life, but he cannot suffer any loss.

The ancient well where the corpse was buried is in the middle of the small courtyard, giving off a weird and ghostly atmosphere against the backdrop of the night.The servants who originally lived here have also moved to other places. At this time, there is no one there, except for the occasional gust of wind and whistling sounds.

Gongsun Zhuoyu lit up a lantern and searched the surroundings carefully.

There was a circle of bricks built around the well, about a little below the woman's knees.An able-bodied adult man who is not blind will certainly not fall into a well for no reason.He was either pushed or jumped in on his own.

But based on the current situation, the latter can be ruled out directly.

There were marks on the back of the body's head that it had been struck by a heavy object.The deceased was most likely attacked from behind with a stone or something like that. After losing the ability to move, the body was thrown into the well.

There are many rocks, flowers and plants in the small courtyard, which meets the conditions for the presence of a murder weapon.If the murderer hits someone with a stone, it will inevitably be stained with blood. The best way to destroy the evidence is to throw it into a well or lake, so that no one can find it or pick it up.

But the well has been fished carefully and there is nothing suspicious.

Gongsun Zhuoyu roughly estimated that the nearest lake is at least three or four sections of corridors and a viewing bridge from here, and there will definitely be a crowded kitchen in the middle. The murderer will not take such a big risk to deal with it.A heavy stone——

The murder weapon must still be nearby.

Gongsun Zhuoyu found a long bamboo pole and used it to pull big rocks among the green plants.His goal was not broad, he only searched in a circle around the ancient well. After searching for about an hour, he finally found clues in the yard next door.

The prefect likes to be arty, so there are bamboo bushes in twos and threes in the corner of the garden against the wall, and there are many stones scattered around.Gongsun Zhuoyu specially selected the largest stone that could be lifted with both hands, and finally found a heavy pebble in a corner.

Although the night was blurry, with the light of the candles, it was still possible to vaguely see the dark brown blood stains on the cobblestones. Because there were many cracks and the blood flowed into the gaps, it was quite difficult to clean.

Gongsun Zhuoyu got closer and smelled it. There was a faint smell of blood, and he was almost certain that it was the murder weapon.However, just when he stood up from the ground and prepared to see whose yard it was, he was surprised to find that it was Dan Qiu's residence.

The moon was high in the sky, and the bright and cold light poured down softly, adding a layer of fine silver light to the lake.The evening breeze blows, calmly calming down the worries of the day.

Du Lingchun sat on the floor at the low table, admiring the lake and moonlight while pouring his own glass of wine.A few steps away from him, two maids, one on the left and one on the right, held up a long scroll. The mountains and rivers on it, and the small rivers with a faint blue light, were really a wonderful sight.

No matter how curious it is, after staring at it for nearly two hours, it should be enough, right?

The maid's hands were sore from lifting, and her brain was feeling sleepy, but remembering that Du Lingchun was not in a good mood when he came back today, she cheered up a little to avoid making mistakes and angering him.

Du Lingchun drank one glass after another, his face expressionless, and he didn't know what he was thinking.However, people in high positions are mostly worried and overthinking. It is very dangerous to be guessed about their inner thoughts, so they are used to keeping their emotions and emotions invisible.

"Is this painting good-looking?"

Du Lingchun finally spoke lazily.The thin, feminine voice is neither male nor female.

Kneeling next to him was a guard in black clothes. He had a dark face and a strong build. He was the swordsman who almost had a conflict with Shi Qianqiu last time.

Wu Yue didn't know much about calligraphy and painting, but he felt that the painting was magnificent and he answered honestly: "Go back to the company, it looks good."

When Du Lingchun heard this, he lowered his eyes and said, "What about the painter?"

The person who painted?Isn't it Gongsun Zhuoyu?

Wu Yuezai carefully recalled Gongsun Zhuoyu's appearance. It was rare for him to see someone who could combine the two temperaments of integrity and romance. He considered the words for a while before saying: "Master Gongsun... is suave and elegant, and naturally good-looking.of."

"..."

As soon as Wu Yue said this, Du Lingchun closed his eyes calmly, with veins popping up on his forehead, he threw away the gold cup in his hand with a clang, and said in a cold voice: "Bastard, who asked you if he looks good?"

Du Lingchun's temper was always so moody. Wu Yue had been with him for many years, so he naturally had some understanding of it.It's just that he is from the world and doesn't understand the twists and turns, so naturally he can't guess Du Lingchun's thoughts.

Wu Yue apologized honestly: "My subordinate is stupid."

After saying this, he shut up.If you say more, you will be wrong; if you say less, you will be wrong; if you don't say it, it will be good.So he doesn't like to talk.

Du Lingchun laments once a day that he has a bunch of wine bags and rice bags under his hands.He who is good at martial arts has a weak brain, but he who is good at strategy is also a sick man. He managed to support a few confidants, but all he does is bribe and make money all day long, and they are all just losers!

The already bad mood became even worse.

Du Lingchun went to Jiangzhou this time, and all his guests and counselors stayed in Beijing.He originally planned to stay only for a few days and then return to Beijing to resume his duties. Who would have thought that all the agencies would be exhausted and the variable Gongsun Zhuoyu would be missed.So this also resulted in that except Wu Yue, he had no other confidant to talk to.

Du Lingchun waved his sleeves and ordered people to put on new cups. This was unprecedented. He patiently asked Wu Yue again: "What do you think of Gongsun Zhuoyu?"

Wu Yue said: "I don't know."

After saying that, he felt that it seemed too simple, so he added uncertainly: "She should be a good official."

Wu Yue felt that Gongsun Zhuoyu was willing to accept this hot potato in order to clear up the grievances of a maid, so he must be a good official... right?

He is also a slave, so he can't help but feel the same way at this time.There are countless Chinese people in the capital, and there are also countless high-ranking officials, many of whom are famous. However, in all these years in Wu and Yue, only one person, Gongsun Zhuoyu, could say that "the life of a slave is also a life, and he is also a citizen of Jiangzhou."Such words.

Although Gongsun Zhuoyu was known as one of the three evils in Jiangzhou, Wu Yue thought to himself that no matter how bad a person could be, he couldn't be any worse...

"A good official?" Du Lingchun suddenly looked over and asked slowly, word by word, "What if he is, my company wants to take him under his command?"

Fish goes with fish, shrimp goes with shrimp, turtle goes with tortoise.Although these words are a bit rough, the logic is not rough.If a good official who seeks orders for the people wants to join the camp, he will naturally choose someone with similar interests, such as Prime Minister Yan Fu; but if he is a corrupt official who wants to be promoted and make a fortune, he will naturally choose the right camp, such as... Admiral of Jinglusi, DuLingchun.

Now Wu Yue said that Gongsun Zhuoyu was a good official, which sounded a little more unspeakable.The implication is that Gongsun Zhuoyu is not the same person as them?

Du Lingchun felt unhappy after hearing this. He narrowed his eyes, but he never gave up the idea of winning over Gongsun Zhuoyu.

If a drop of white ink falls into black water, will it be assimilated or swallowed?

The author has something to say: Gongsun Zhuoyu (laughing wildly with arms akimbo): Unexpectedly, I am dripping with black ink!

Wu Yue: "The company always likes to ask questions that test my IQ"

"Master Gongsun is charming and suave"

"Master Gongsun is naturally good-looking"
