Chapter 27 Zhang Yuchuan
Yan Chixia is just an old child. She said she thought it was lively and wanted to go back to Lanruo Temple to find purity. However, when Ning Caichen blew, she knew that every leaf was chaotic and had a fuss. After vagueness, she reluctantly said that she would stay for two days.
It is rare to have time. The two girls of the Fu family are girls' families, and they have practiced martial arts since childhood, which is not suitable for official affairs. Fu Qingfeng and Ning Caichen fell in love with him, and Fu Yuechi also had a crush on Zhiqiu Yiye, so he accompanied Maitreya and Yan Chixia. The six of them wandered around Jinling for two times. Everyone discussed martial arts and Taoism and the sea scenery. They had been leisurely and comfortable for two days.
In two days, Fu Tianchou had already handled the matter after Pudu Cihang and wrote a memorial to Fengtian Prefecture. Fengtian Prefecture also issued an imperial edict, but instead of replying to the memorial, the old emperor who worshipped Buddhism passed away and the new emperor took office, allowing Fu Tianchou to restore his post. Because the north and the coastal areas were unstable, he asked him to sit in Jinling and understand the overall situation.
Once he turned around, Fu Tianchou was naturally busy with official business and could not pay attention to the idle business. However, he asked Maitreya and Yan Chixia to come over and asked them to go to Jiang Mansion in the city.
Fu Tianchou is now dealing with the government affairs in the south. Because the local prefect Jiang Lianfu is confused, he specially asked Zuo Zixiong to dismiss him from his post. However, when Zuo Zixiong came to the door, he found that there was a lawsuit for his family's life, and there were many strange things. Therefore, he asked Maitreya and Yan Chixia to take a look.
"You just like meddling in other people's business, let me run with you." Yan Chixia carried the sword box on her back, and the road was full of complaints. He had been an official, so he was a little resistant to such official duties.
"You think I want to care! I have no choice. The scholar is looking for love now. Zhiqiu told Miss Yuechi again that we were two of us, like the headlights and cicadas, how inappropriate it is!" Maitreya faced Yan Chixia, and was full of dog food. He owed Zuo Zixiong a favor and had to pay it back.
Maitreya and Yan Chixia came to Jiang's mansion while exhaling resentment. Zuo Zixiong was already waiting here. After recounting the old story, they immediately started the case.
Zuo Zixiong is now entrusted by Fu Tianchou as an important task and has taken charge of military defense in Jinling City. When he came to Jiang's mansion to dismiss the post of the law, he found that there was a pair of headless bones hidden in Jiang's mansion, so he had a murder case.
The headless dry bones were hidden in the pine ground in the Jiang Mansion courtyard. Zuo Zixiong accidentally saw this. After discovering this thing, he immediately dispatched people to surround the Jiang Mansion to search. A skull was found under the bed in Jiang Lianfu's room. It was steadily connected with the bone body, but it was surprisingly great. Therefore, he felt that something was strange and asked Fu Tianchou to come to Maitreya and Yan Chixia.
"Hey, how can ordinary people grow so big!" Yan Chixia went to the mansion and followed Zuo Zixiong's guidance, and went to the house to look at the dead bones in brocade clothes. She couldn't help but feel a little suspicious because the skull was too big.
"It's a congenital alien!" Maitreya also looked at the skull with a skull that was as wide as the chest cavity. However, in his mind, he remembered the strange thing he encountered when he went to Cihang Hall three days ago. According to the teahouse owner at that time, the guy who killed people was a man with a very big head. He also met Jiang Lianfu there.
"This wound" Yan Chixia ignored Maitreya's words and carefully examined the skeleton's wound, and couldn't help but show a little surprise.
"It's a sword injury!"
"Really?" Maitreya couldn't help but stand up his eyebrows when he heard Yan Chixia's words. If this corpse was really a strange man from the teahouse in the suburbs that day, he could be a swordsman, then the person who killed him might be a swordsman.
"It's not wrong." Yan Chixia must nodded.
"Master Qianhu, can you call Jiang Lianfu to ask?" Maitreya turned his head and asked Zuo Zixiong.
"I have asked Jiang Lianfu, and he has no idea about this." Zuo Zixiong shook his head in the face of Maitreya's words.
"That's true. Prefect Jiang is not a swordsman, and this person doesn't seem to be killed by him." Maitreya did not doubt Zuo Zixiong's words, and turned his head to speak at Yan Chixia. Although Jiang Lianfu was not confused by Fanyin in Cihang Hall that day, he was frightened and refused to show up again. His performance was really bad.
"If you have sword skills, you need to make a detailed argument. Let me first look at Lord Jiang and the people in his mansion!" Yan Chixia refused to believe that Maitreya's sword skills were too little, so he wanted to see Jiang Lianfu and the others in Jiang's mansion with his own eyes.
At the request of Yan Chixia, Zuo Zixiong led him and Maitreya to see the Jiang family in the mansion.
A murder case occurred in the mansion. Even the prefect, Jiang Lianfu was constrained at home, and the same was true for the family.
After Yan Chixia met the Jiang family one by one, she whispered a few words to Zuo Zixiong. Zuo Qianhu immediately transferred archers to capture two beautifully dressed and picturesque women from the Jiang family, and asked Jiang Lianfu and Mrs. Jiang to identify who these two were!
In the eyes of Maitreya, Yan Chixia and others, the two women in the Jiang family were dressed in beautiful clothes, and seemed to be masters and servants. I think they must be family members like maids. However, when Jiang Lianfu saw the two, he glared and shook his head with a look of nervousness and embarrassment.
"I don't know these two people either!" Jiang Lianfu's words and attitude made Zuo Zixiong frown, Maitreya looked surprised, while Yan Chixia stared at the two women, and in the end it was Jiang Lianfu's wife who stood up and spoke.
"Mr. Zuo is afraid that he has admitted his mistake. These two sisters came to my house just a few months ago. It is absolutely impossible for them to be the murderer. Someone must have framed this matter." Mrs. Jiang's expression was extremely dignified and polite, and her tone was very certain. However, she expressed her meaning inside and outside. These two women were indeed not from the Jiang family, but they had a good relationship with the Jiang family, so Mrs. Jiang was willing to defend them.
"Who are you two? Why are you killed by you in the Jiang family?" Just when everyone was confused, Yan Chixia spoke to the two women.
"My surname is Zhang and my name is Yuchuan. This is my maid. I met Jiang Lang outside Qixia Temple a month ago. Because I felt that I had a marriage, I came to the door to ask for a meal until now. As for the skull, I am my original husband."
The woman who seemed to be the master saw Yan Chixia speak, so she took the initiative to bless her body and told the fact that everyone was staring at her. Jiang's wife, who was originally pleading for her, had a look of shock and a look of suspicion and fear in her face.
"My husband hated me and left, so he chose Jiang Lang to serve him, so he wanted to kill Jiang Lang. My maid and I couldn't, so I could only kill him." Zhang Yuchuan said something else without waiting for everyone to come back to his senses.
"You two are also sword immortals?" Maitreya looked at Zhang Yuchuan, who took the initiative to admit the crime of murder, and did not care about the bizarreness of this matter and asked.
"I dare not call myself an immortal, I have some sword skills." Zhang Yuchuan lowered her head slightly.
"Since you have sword skills, why bother?" Maitreya looked at Zhang Yuchuan who was not hesitant and couldn't help but open his mouth, but he didn't know how to evaluate the behavior of the female swordsman in front of him.
