Although the murder was late, it arrived. Zhan Zhao wrinkled his nose and looked at Wang Dynasty Mahan with some disgust - Can't you two wait until tomorrow? It has to be today!

Mahan of the Dynasty was also aggrieved and looked at Zhan Zhao - it's not that we can't wait, it's the corpse that can't wait.

Zhan Zhao sighed and asked, "Did another horse get frightened and crash the car?"

But Ma Han shook his head and said it was not an accident, but a murder, and it was Jia Laosan who died.

Zhan Zhao was stunned and asked, "Jia Laosan? Jia Zhutou?"

Both nodded.

Speaking of Jia Laosan, he is also well-known in Kaifeng City. Even Bai Yutang knows about him.

It’s not that this person is great, he is famous solely because of his wickedness.

As the imperial city of the Song Dynasty, Kaifeng had a lot of people with money and status, so there were also many second-generation ancestors. Mr. Bao was famous for his strictness in governing the imperial city. Even if he was a relative of the emperor, he would kill them as soon as he made a mistake. Moreover, Zhao Zhen is a shameless emperor, so in general, the atmosphere in the city is still very good.

After Zhan Zhao came, even the second generation ancestor who had a thug at home did not dare to go out and act violently on the street, because he basically could not escape the end of being beaten.

But in fact, going to the streets to cause trouble and rob men and dominate women is only a small part of the evil, and it is also the easiest part to deal with. If you do bad things on the street, as long as you are caught, you will be dealt with according to the law, and you will not be able to escape. The really hard-to-deal-with crimes are those that cannot be caught in action, cannot find evidence, and do not even have to be done by oneself.

Take Jia Laosan as an example.

The Jia family is in the timber business, and their business is very large.

Perhaps it was in keeping with the old saying that as money and people come together, Lao Jia has never had any offspring. He did have two sons in the early years, but they both died in infancy.

It wasn't until Lao Jia was over fifty that he had another son, Jia Laosan.

The result of treating his son like a treasure when he was old was excessive pampering. Lao Jia was obedient to his son and held him in his hands all the way up... Many of Jia Laosan's bad habits were cultivated in this way.

Jia Laosan especially loves to bully others and play pranks.

He went to the market to buy freshwater fish. After buying it, he would step on it quietly, and then return it as wrong. The merchant refunded the money, but the freshwater fish died before it was sold. When he came to him, he refused to acknowledge the debt and even said something back. The aquatic fish sold by others are diseased.

Do you want to say that he is short of this little money? Of course not, he is just looking for trouble for fun.

He had done a lot of similar little evils, and every time he could find an excuse to fool him. Mr. Bao had also warned him that he pretended to be stupid and had a very good attitude in admitting his mistakes, but he still continued to do evil after leaving the Yamen.

So why is he called Jia Zhutou? It comes from Jia Laosan’s experience of being deficient.

Since Taixue opened Lanhui Academy, many of the ladies have gone out to attend classes, and their families have basically arranged horse-drawn carriages to pick them up. Most of the talented girls are more elegant and introverted, and they have been raised in boudoirs all year round, so they are relatively timid.

This Jia Laosan had a sudden idea, just like scaring talented women. What evil idea did he come up with? Throw a pig's head!

The Jia family had a house on the road that was necessary to go to Taixue. Jia Laosan hung a lot of salted pig heads on the eaves of the house, saying they were dried and cured meat.

Whenever a talented woman's carriage passed by his house, he would deliberately pretend to be holding the pig's head slippery and throw the pig's head into the carriage.

A young and talented girl was rushing to school in a car. Suddenly, there was a "boom" and a pig's head rolled in from outside the car curtain. Wasn't she going to scream in fright?

As long as the girl is frightened and screamed, Jia Laosan will laugh with joy.

To punish him, he just said that people are not allowed to dry bacon these days? He didn't mean to fall down because he was not sure, so he should be more careful next time.

However, there is no one who doesn’t get wet shoes when walking along the river. The proud Jia Laosan encountered a prickly head.

One day, the talented lady Liao Cailin's car happened to be passing by that road. Jia Laosan repeated his old trick and threw the pig's head onto the Liao family's carriage.

The pig's head rolled into the car curtain, and Yiyi happened to be in Liao Cailin's car.

Yiyi had heard about Jia Laosan's evil deeds before, so she reached out to pick up the pig's head, opened the curtain of the lathe and threw it back at Jia Laosan...

Jia Laosan was stretching his neck to wait for Liao Cailin to scream in fear, but unexpectedly a pig's head flew towards him. Yiyi was not polite to him, and the pig's head, with its internal force, hit Jia Laosan's nose right on the nose.

The bridge of his nose was flattened.

Jia Laosan screamed in pain, and his family quickly sent him to see a doctor.

Unfortunately, the doctor had been tricked by him before, and I don’t know if it was intentional or not. The bridge of his nose was reattached, but it turned into an upturned nose. Jia Laosan was already quite fat and had a big face, so he had an upturned nose and looked at it.

He looks like a pig's head. In addition, he is the retribution for losing his head, so everyone calls him Jia Zhutou.

Jia Laosan actually went to the Yamen to complain, saying that Yiyi had injured him. Yiyi responded in kind, saying that his hands were slippery and the pig's head fell off. What was wrong with her helping to pick it up and return it to its original place? She was also slippery.

Okay, just be careful next time.

Jia Laosan was in trouble, and was also targeted by Huofengtang. He was often followed and followed by the people of Huofengtang. If he tried to cause harm, he would be "slipped" and kept in check.

It has been almost a year since this happened. After experiencing several "setbacks", Jia Laosan has restrained himself a lot. Zhan Zhao has not heard of him getting into trouble or making fun of others recently. It is said that he has improved.

"Then Jia Zhutou is dead?" Lin Yehuo happened to hold Xiao Sizi's hand and came out, and was shocked when he heard it.

Zhan Zhao asked Lin Yehuo if he had sent anyone to keep an eye on him recently.

Huofeng shook his head, "Before we went to Jiangnan, the boy came to my Huofengtang to apologize and begged me to give him another chance. He would definitely change his life. Suqing also said that he might have changed. First, he had to deal with all the people who were bullied by him in the past.

I went to apologize to someone I had passed with, and then started to behave as a human being, so after observing him for a while, I stopped following him."

Zhan Zhao then asked Wang Chao and Mahan if Jia Laosan had ever gotten into trouble or offended anyone during this period.

Both of them shook their heads and said that Jia Laosan had not shown up for a long time, so he was indeed very peaceful.

…

Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang rushed to Jia's house, along with Lin Yehuo and Xiao Sizi.

Gongsun was still setting people's bones, so he couldn't leave for the time being, so he asked the fourth son and the Yamen chief to take a look first, and wait until he returns later to conduct an autopsy.

As expected, the Jia Mansion was in chaos, with old and young people crying and fighting. Jia, who was more than seventy years old, could not bear the blow. He fainted from crying and became bedridden.

The fourth son went to check Master Jia's pulse and shook his head at Zhan Zhao, saying that the old man's condition was very worrying and he was too sad.

The wives and concubines in the house all cried and cried, saying that they were afraid that something would happen to him when they got into so many troubles in the past, but he survived it, and in the end they all changed their ways, but they died violently...

Everyone came to the scene of the crime.

Jia Laosan died in the yard behind the kitchen. The cause of death was a knife stabbed through the left chest. The knife used was the boning knife in the kitchen.

Wu Zuo checked and found that the cause of death was very simple. Jia Laosan only had this fatal injury on his body. The time of death should be early this morning.

When Zhan Zhao saw that Jia Laosan was fully clothed, he was a little puzzled and asked the housekeeper of Jia's house, "Why does your young master come here before dawn? Shouldn't he be sleeping at that time?"

The housekeeper also found it strange and said that all the servants in the house had asked, but no one saw the young master coming in the early morning, and the young master went to bed very early last night.

When Wu Zuo looked at the body, he found Jia Laosan lying on his back in an open space in the middle of the courtyard, with the knife stuck in his heart.

"Was it a stab from the front and not a sneak attack from behind?" Zhan Zhao saw that Jia Laosan had his eyes closed and his expression was not painful, and he felt even more weird - after being stabbed in the front, his face wouldn't be so peaceful, right?

The housekeeper came over with two boys.

These two were Jia Laosan's personal servants, following him in and out, and sleeping in an outhouse at night.

The two said that the young master was in a good mood last night and drank a few glasses of wine with them. After drinking, they fell asleep and slept until dawn.

The housekeeper also complained that the two of them were too shameless. They found the young master's body in the morning and came over to see that the two of them were sleeping loudly and snoring loudly. It took them a long time to wake up.

"Is the jug still there?" asked the fourth son.

The boys said they were all still in the house because they were too sleepy last night and didn't clean up.

Everyone followed the two young men to Jia Laosan's bedroom. Indeed...the house was divided into an inner house and an outer house. If Jia Laosan wanted to leave the house, it would be difficult not to disturb the two young men in the outer room.

The fourth son shook the remaining wine jug from yesterday. There was still half a jug of wine in it. He opened the lid and smelled it, then handed the jug to the man who followed him.

Wu Zuo also smelled it and nodded to Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang - someone had drugged the wine.

Bai Yutang, Lin Yehuo and Zhan Zhao gathered together to discuss whether Jia Laosan was transported to the kitchen in a coma and then stabbed to death?

Wu Zuo and Xiao Sizi also agreed with this statement, because Jia Laosan showed no signs of resistance at all.

"But why not stab him to death here instead of transporting him to the yard behind the kitchen?" Bai Yutang felt puzzled.

Zhan Zhao also felt that the motive was a mystery.

Returning to the kitchen to check again, Zhan Zhao asked the housekeeper and two boys if Jia Laosan had any enemies.

The boys said that the young master has really changed his ways recently. He is either checking accounts or learning to be a carpenter. He has not done anything mischievous in the past six months. He really can't think of anyone wanting to kill him at this time.

As for the wine they drank together last night, it was bought from a winery in the city, and there was still more than half a jar.

Xiao Sizi and Zuo Zuo checked the remaining half jar of wine and found that there was no medicine in it.

Zhan Zhao and the others searched the yard where Jia Laosan lived in detail. The fourth son found a paper ball from next to a flower pot in the garden, opened it, and found some medicinal powder still stained on the paper.

After being identified by Wu Zuo and Xiao Sizi, it was the medicine that was put into the wine.

The young man recalled, "The young master brought the jug last night, but the maid refused to enter the yard..."

Zhan Zhao felt something was wrong when he heard this, so he asked, "Why doesn't the maid want to enter the yard?"

The two boys looked at the housekeeper and did not dare to speak.

The housekeeper hesitated for a moment, and finally said, "The master has stipulated that the maids are not allowed to enter the young master's yard."

"What's the reason?" Zhan Zhao asked.

Seeing that the housekeeper was still hesitant, Zhan Zhao made a serious face and said, "Say it! Your young master is dead and he is already in bed. What else do you want to hide?!"

The butler had no choice but to tell the truth, "It's because the young master was frivolous with several maids before... so the maids quit and wanted to leave, so the master gave an order not to allow the young master to get close to the maids, let alone to allow the maids to enter the young master's yard."

Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang both frowned, and Lin Yehuo pouted, "Didn't you say that you have changed? It's obvious that you haven't changed! You just changed from bullying outsiders to bullying your own family."

The fourth boy also shook his head - how outrageous!
