Lv Sixian kowtowed and said: "My lord is aware that Cao Min went up to the second floor by himself, and saw that the door of Tianzi No. 6 room was open. Boss Zhu and Miss Ju were lying on the ground with blood under them. I was shocked. , Hurriedly went over and sniffed, that boss Zhu had already died, and the girl Ju held a dagger in her hand, unconscious. I subconsciously took the dagger to look at her, and sniffed her again, she was still breathing, I was about to call People, these two came here. Before I could react, they shouted, and everyone took me here as a murderer."

Long Er heard the words "ju girl", and felt a little bit of heart--isn't it the woman he knew?

Qiu Ruoming asked: "You mean, the dagger was originally in the girl's hands?"

"Yes." Lv Sixian said, "I recognize the girl Keju. She is weak and can't use martial arts. She can't see things with her eyes, and it's impossible to kill. I have never heard that she met Boss Zhu. ."

When Long Er heard this, he was sure that the one lying in a pool of blood unconscious and holding a dagger must be Mu'er.

That, Ju Muer, who always likes to annoy him and make him angry.

Lv Sixian over there continued: "Only because these two people are recognized by the Cao Min, and the fact that the girl Ju is holding a dagger, Cao Min subconsciously took the dagger and inspected it. But Cao Min never killed or beat The hurt girl."

Qiu Ruoming stared at him for a moment, and asked the servants in the hall: "Has the injured woman fainted wake up? If nothing happens, call her to the court."

The government officer led out. Taking advantage of this moment, Qiu Ruoming asked Fuyunlai Inn Xiaoer Shanzi again: "So what was the situation when Zhu Fu stayed in the inn? Are there any visitors?"

Shanzi replied: "Boss Zhu walked past the entrance of the inn. It was a small business. Boss Zhu seemed to be in a bad mood, but he didn't say anything. He entered the shop and just kept drinking. He was too drunk, but the young one helped him into the guest room and waited for him to sleep. After that, there was no more movement and no visitors were looking for him."

Qiu Ruoming nodded after hearing this, and then asked Afu and Jiang Ying, who belonged to Zhu Fu, whether his boss had any grudges with others on weekdays. Both said that Zhu Fu was honest, had no grievances with others, and had a strong relationship with the wife Zhu Chen, and had never seen them argue. During these days, Zhu Fu was only worried about whether to sell tea shops or not, but he never heard him talk about the other things.

Zhu Chen drew tears from the side, crying about how loyal her family mate is. The tea shop is the lifeblood of his family, and Xiang Gong is determined not to sell it. This led to a dispute with Lu Sixian and was murdered by him. She cried and cried, and knelt down and begged Qiu Ruoming to be the master.

In the midst of making a fuss, a government servant helped Ju Muer in.

The thick cloth on Ju Muer's body was stained with blood, her head was wounded, and the cloth towel was soaked in blood. Long Er couldn't help but look at her carefully. Her face was pale and sick, she seemed to be thinner?

Long Er sees her like this, but he feels that the boss is uncomfortable.

Qiu Ruoming asked loudly: "Is the person here Ju Muer?"

"Mr. Hui, it's the girl." Her voice was soft, sounding weak. Long Er was a little dazed, thinking that it seemed like she hadn't heard her for a long time, or that she had a good voice when she was originally energetic.

"Ju Mu'er, this is above the Yatang. The official is hearing the murder of Zhu Fu at the Fuyunlai Inn tonight. Tell me why you were at the scene of the murder?"

Ju Mu'er nodded, and asked her for help at the piano shop. There was too much work to finish and she couldn't get home. So she booked an inn and planned to stay there for one night.

Qiu Ruoming listened, and he invited the servants to ask the people at Chuan Yinqin Shop to come over and ask to see if what Ju Muer said was true.

The government officer took the order and left. Qiu Ruoming asked if Ju Muer knew Zhu Fu, but Ju Muer couldn't answer. He asked her again if she had denied Lu Sixian, and this time Ju Muer nodded and said she recognized.

Qiu Ruoming groaned for a while, and then asked: "Ju Muer, Lu Sixian was the first person to find you after the crime. He said that you were holding a dagger in your hand and fainted beside Zhu Fu. Let me tell you, if you were I don’t know Zhu Fu, why did he enter his room? The dagger you were holding was the weapon that killed Zhu Fu. What should you explain?"

Ju Muer opened her mouth wide in surprise: "I have a dagger?"

"Exactly."

Ju Muer shook her head, frowning and biting her lips in thought. She did not speak, causing Qiu Ruoming to slap a startle, and shouted: "Ju Muer, answer my question!"

Long Er frowned, looking at Ju Muer's confused and panicked face, very dissatisfied with Qiu Ruoming's tone. Isn’t it just that I answered you a while late, and as for the yelling, I don’t have any patience. What case is still being tried?

Ju Muer was startled when Qiu Ruoming drank it. She opened her mouth and was waiting to speak. Qiu Ruoming had already drank again: "You must have mistaken the door of the room and entered Zhu Fu's room by mistake. Zhu Fu is not drunk. Identify the person and behave frivolously. When you panic, you fight him. You stabbed him seriously with a dagger, and he stunned you with the teapot on the table with one last breath."

Ju Muer was shocked and shook her head vigorously. Which one is this?

The Zhu Chen clan on the side has already listened to Qiu Ruoming's speculation. Ju Muer just said loudly, "My lord, the murderer is someone else..." Before the words were finished, Zhu Chen had already excitedly rushed to push Ju Muer to the ground and fight: "It must be you **** , It turns out that you killed my father-in-law."

Ju Muer had no power at all, and was hit several times in a blink of an eye.

Long Er was furious, with a finger, Li Ke leaped over like an arrow, and lifted the Zhu Chen family. Long Er yelled: "If you splash something, don't look at the place!"

Qiu Ruoming gave him an angry look. Isn't this something that Master Yin of his house should say?

Long Er looked back at Qiu Ruoming very rudely. He knew that Qiu Ruoming deliberately tried to see if Ju Muer was really helpless. But it's good to test it out. Why does he keep his servant from pulling the shrew away for a long time? So bullying a blind and weak woman, is he embarrassed to be a parent official?

At this time, the government officer has helped Ju Muer up. Ju Muer said: "My lord, the murderer is someone else. The girl wanted to go to the front hall to ask for some hot water to drink. Passing by the No. 6 room that day, I heard the door opening and a man screaming. She just shouted the word'help' and she was covered by her mouth and dragged in. Minnu subconsciously turned her head over there, and the murderer thought that Minnu saw something, and arrested Minnu too. I begged him for mercy, because he was blind and couldn't recognize him. After that, he knocked the girl out. What happened later, the girl did not know."

Qiu Ruoming nodded, curling his eyebrows in deep thought. In fact, he did not think that the murderer was Ju Muer. Although the two sides fought, one side was struck by two knives and then desperately knocked down the other. It is not impossible that he would eventually lose too much blood and die. However, Zhu Fu is tall and muscular. To be strong, it is impossible for Ju Mu'er to stabbing twice in a row and the knives into the bone.

"Lu Sixian." Qiu Ruoming shouted.

"Caomin is here."

"You can see from Shicai, that Ju Muer didn't have the power to kill Zhu Fu?"

"My lord, Cao Min doesn't think that Ju Girl is a murderer. Shi Cai Cao Min said that both Boss Zhu and Ju Girl Cao Min recognize it, because they think things are strange, so they took a dagger. Unexpectedly, they were seen. , Cao Min will be mistaken for murder."

Qiu Ruoming hummed: "Then you have heard clearly just now, Zhu Fu's buddies and family have said that you want to buy Zhu Fu's tea shop for your boss, but Zhu Fu has not been willing to sell it. You have an appointment with him today , Are you talking about this business?"

"Yes."

"You have discussed with you many times, and you can’t talk about the business, and you are filled with grievances. I found Zhu Fu this day and night. I remembered that the business talk was not going well during the day. He was drunk and out of control, and he couldn’t talk to you And, you killed him in a hurry, and you happened to pass by Muer, so you didn’t stop doing it, knocked her out, and wanted to plant her on her. If you convict her, you can get away. Observing it carefully, she saw that the killing was not what she did, and she couldn’t tell why. You arranged everything and wanted to pretend to be the first person to find the scene. Unexpectedly, someone suddenly appeared and witnessed everything. Arrested on the spot, right?"

Qiu Ruoming said this while quietly examining the expressions of everyone. Zhu Fu's two men looked sad and angry, Zhu Chen kept hiding their faces and weeping, the residents Liang Ping and the inn Xiao Er looked as usual. And Long Erye, who was sitting aside, only looked at the expressions of the people seriously, and his face was blank.

Qiu Ruoming's words shocked Lu Sixian repeatedly: "My lord, this is not the case. Boss Zhu has promised to sell the shop to Longfu in the daytime, and we will only break up the deal after negotiating the terms of sale."

As soon as Lu Sixian said this, Zhu Fu's two buddies and Zhu Chen were shocked and yelled that it was impossible.

Qiu Ruoming confirmed with them whether Zhu Fu had said that he was willing to sell the shop, and the three of them shook their heads and said that Zhu Fu was not willing to sell. Qiu Ruoming asked Long Er today if he heard Lu Sixian come to report that the purchase of the shop has been negotiated. Long Er shook his head and said that this is not a small business. The shopkeeper Lu will not report to him if he has not finalized all the details, otherwise he will be caught After a few words, it is the incompetence of shopkeeper Lu.

Lu Sixian hurriedly said at this moment: "There is indeed something to be done. Boss Zhu only said that there are still two buddies who have been with him all the time in the shop. He sold the shop and has to talk to them. Look at them. Is he willing to work with the Long’s family, or is willing to take the money to make a living on his own. He explained that he gave me news on the day, but he didn’t expect this to happen at night."

Qiu Ruoming asked: "Does a third person know about this?"

Lu Sixian was taken aback. He was waiting for news, so he didn't mention it to others. As for Boss Zhu, based on the current situation in the hall, no one thought he knew about it. Lu Sixian knew that no matter what people witnessed, they would be detrimental to him. With a gray face, he had to kowtow and said: "The adults are observant, the younger ones did not kill."

Qiu Ruoming thought, although this case can be speculated like this, there are still doubts. He couldn't grasp the clues a bit. The relevant people in the hall, except for Lu Sixian, all seemed to be innocent, without motives, no suspicions, and all related evidence.

Only Lu Sixian is suspected to be serious!

But what's wrong?

"My lord." At this time Long Er spoke, "Long only said one thing."

Qiu Ruoming looked at him, and Long Er looked straight in the past, and continued: "Speaking of motivation, shopkeeper Lu can buy more than 20 Xiangfu tea houses every year for the money he makes for Long's tea house. The Xiangfu tea house Yu Long is just a bonus. Long did not scold the shopkeeper Lu to ask him to do something. In this case, if it is a shopkeeper in charge of the most profitable tea shops in Beijing, it is rare. When the small tea shop was angry and murdered, Long felt that it was strange."

Qiu Ruoming knew that he was right, and was thinking hard. At this moment, he ran into his ear and said something urgently. It turned out that the whereabouts of Shicai and the others mentioned, the arrests were soon gone out to check. The piano shop, the inn, the restaurant, and everyone's home were all questioned. This capture will soon gather everyone's news, and come back to report it to Qiu Ruoming.

What the people in the hall said is the truth.

Only Lu Sixian's words, no one can prove it.

No one can prove that he is not a murderer!

At this moment, Ju Muer suddenly said: "My lord, can you say a few words to shopkeeper Lu?"

Qiu Ruoming didn't know what she meant, but she agreed. Ju Mu'er stretched out her arm and fumbled towards Lu Sixian's direction. The Ya Ya hurriedly helped her to lead her.

Ju Muer walked over and shouted: "Shopkeeper Lu."

Lv Sixian hurriedly got up and reached out to support her: "Girl Ju."

Ju Muer held his arm and stood firm.

Everyone stared at them, wondering what Ju Muer wanted to say. But she said: "I just want to thank shopkeeper Lu. If you didn't find out in time, maybe I was seriously injured and killed. I believe that shopkeeper Lu is not the murderer. The adults will be aware of the details, and shopkeeper Lv can rest assured."

Lu Sixian has a bitter face, a serious death case, and the situation is so unfavorable to him, how can he be relieved? Zhu Fu's buddy and widow yelled at him behind him, which made him even more sad.

Qiu Ruoming's face is also not good-looking. How could this blind girl have the same virtue as Long Erye, regardless of the three or seven twenty-one, first buckle down a big hat. He is a good official, why do they need to squeeze him so well to handle the case?

But the case is full of doubts right now, and it is indeed tricky. It seems that we have to study carefully before we can make a conclusion.

At this time, Ju Muer said again: "My lord, Minnv's head was injured. I can't remember some things at the time of the case, but Minnv vaguely thinks that it is a very important clue. I hope the lord is not in a hurry to close the case. , Wait until the people’s girl thinks about it, and then report it to the adults."

Qiu Ruoming frowned, what major clues can a blind woman "see"? He didn't count on her. But at this time there was no progress in the retrial, so he confessed a few words, first put Lu Sixian into prison, and the others waited to return home, waiting for the government to investigate and study again.

Long Er didn't have a good solution at this time. He and Lu Sixian would settle for him at home, so that he would not panic, and he would definitely find evidence to prove his innocence.

Lu Sixian was taken down. Long Er asked Li Ke to find someone to take care of him in jail, and don't let shopkeeper Lu suffer in it. Li Ke took the order.

Long Er and Qiu Ruoming made a few polite sentences, and it was discovered that Qiu Ruoming also felt that the case was suspicious, but there was nothing specific to say, so Long Er left.

Out of the government office, I saw a pair of middle-aged men and women who were taking Mu'er into a carriage. The man repeatedly said: "Oh, oh, how bad luck. Fortunately, you have nothing to do, otherwise you lived in the inn because of my piano shop. If there are any shortcomings, how can I explain to your father? ?"

Ju Mu'er looked tired and responded in a few quiet voices, then got into their carriage and left.

Long Er turned around and summoned a guard next to him to follow the car, to see where the two had picked up Ju Mu'er, and if something happened, he would return to him as soon as possible. The guard responded and followed up on horseback.

Long Er arranged things, and it was past midnight after returning to the mansion. He didn't want to sleep anymore, so he went to the bookstore again and sat quietly alone, thinking about all the things in this case. In any case, he must rescue shopkeeper Lu.

Long Er sat down till dawn. In the middle, Li Ke came in to report the situation of shopkeeper Lu’s imprisonment and Ju Muer’s being received by the owner of the Qin Shop Cheng Yin’s house, and the case of letting the spies from the Long Mansion investigate shopkeeper Lu was also arranged. .

Long Er nodded. He believed these spies were useful, and there must be some clues they could dig out.

Just before dawn, a small servant suddenly came to report, saying that at the gate of the mansion, Ju Muer asked to see her.

Long Er was surprised, the girl rested restlessly on her head, what was she running around? He frowned and agreed, and asked Xiao Si to lead her to the front hall.

When Long Er passed by, he found that Ju Muer was sitting next to Ju Mu'er. After a few polite remarks on both sides, Ju Muer suddenly said: "Last time the second master told me a good piano, I suddenly wanted to take a look. I will disturb you while passing by this time."

Long Er is stunned. When did he tell her that he has a good piano? But in a blink of an eye, seeing Old Ju's face annoyed, he understood. She must be something she wants to talk to him privately, but she doesn't want her father to know.

Long Er suddenly had a kind of joy that her little handle fell on her hand. He smiled: "The piano is in the library. If the girl wants to see it, please move."

Ju Muer heard him cooperate, he was relieved, and hurriedly said: "Daddy, wait for me for a while, I will touch the piano and be back soon."

Father Ju saw that he was in someone else's house, he couldn't say anything, he just mumbled a little unhappy. If the daughter is injured, she shouldn't go home to see the doctor keep it. She ran to see what piano, he shouldn't have promised her.

Long Er ordered the servant to prepare breakfast and tea for Father Ju, and greeted him, and then he led Ju Muer away.

Long Mansion is very large, with stone paths in the long corridor garden, with seven turns and eight turns, Ju Mu'er followed Long Er quite hard. Long Er saw that she had changed into a clean dress, and the cloth towel wrapped around her head was also newly tied. She looked weaker than last night.

Long Er got angry for no reason, so he simply found a wing room nearby and sat down with her. He called the servant to prepare hot tea for breakfast, and then began to speak.

"Did you sleep last night, why did you run around with a ghostly face?"

Ju Muer had no intention of quarreling with him at the moment, only explaining: "My father came as soon as the city gate opened today. He knew what happened last night and wants to take me back to recuperate. If I don't find someone Seeing the second master from the beginning, I am afraid it will be difficult to come over these few days."

"What do you want to tell me?"

The servant brought tea and poured it on both of them. Long Er looked at Ju Mu'er's pale hands, so he clicked on the table and knocked out: "Here is the tea, it's hot."

Ju Muer thanked, she touched the cup and held it, without speaking. Long Er asked again: "Why are you looking for me?"

Ju Muer took a deep breath, embarrassment and embarrassment on her face. Long Er couldn't help but raise her eyebrows, what on earth was she going to say?

"Second Lord." Ju Muer finally said, "I have a way to prove that Shopkeeper Lu is not the murderer, and can also find the real murderer."

"Oh?" Long Er was very interested in this matter, and he waited for Ju Mu'er to continue.

"But..." Ju Muer's conversation turned, "I want to negotiate a condition with Erye."

This trick again?

Long Er's heart is pounding, and some are excited about meeting his opponent and having fun. He picked up the cup and sipped hot tea, calmed his mind, and asked: "What terms do you want to negotiate?"

Ju Muer bit her lip for a long time without speaking. Long Er waited patiently and took another sip of hot tea.

"I want the second master to marry me."

"Puff—" Long Er turned his head sharply and sprayed a sip of tea on the ground.

Damn it, did he hear someone begging for him?
