MTL - Our Mommy is the Best Investigator!-Chapter 794 shattered

  Chapter 794 Broken Jar

At this time, Zhan He began to explain swearingly: "Old Gu's disciples are all over the empire, and three out of ten officials from various ministries in the court are from his sect, let alone Langzhou City. All the deaths of the family were caused by him."

   After finishing speaking, the magistrate of Ling County fetched the autopsy report and handed it to Chu Nanzhi, and continued to report:

"Please take a look at the empress. The lower official has already ordered her to conduct an autopsy. The knife wounds on the six members of Qian's family were all caused by sharp knives. They were killed by one blow. The depth of the knife was about one foot, but the thickness was less than half an inch. The cuts of the blades are consistent, and such a sharp but thin blade is by no means made by the people, it can only come from the army."

  Looking at Chu Nanzhi, who was carefully reading the autopsy report, Zhan He showed a more determined look in his eyes:

"Many of the old disciples of Gu are officials in Langzhou City, and there are too many powerful troops in the army. I have read the policy and theory of the queen's official system reform. It is really refreshing. It is the creation of Kuangfu Chaogang. I admire it, but such a fair and reasonable method will certainly arouse the anger of the aristocratic family, and they are absolutely unwilling to see this scientific research method come out."

  Listening to Zhan He's convincing words, combined with all the files he had read, Chu Nanzhi also vaguely realized that the death of the Qian family was inseparable from Chang Lao's assassination.

   It is understandable for them to assassinate Chang Lao to prevent the reform of the official system, but it is a bit insane to kill the Qian family.

  As Chu Wenbi said, the nanny just wanted to earn a few taels of silver to improve the family's livelihood, so why did she suffer such a catastrophe.

  However, the case of Li Sanmu and the state court official Shi Checha Chang Lao has not made any progress in the past month, and no conclusions can be drawn at all based on the autopsy report.

   After all, if this kind of military dagger is really involved in the army, it is not as easy to investigate as it was in Jinhui's family, it is like finding a needle in a haystack.

  After thinking about it, she signaled decisively to Tang Weiming: "Mr. Tang, you take someone to Gujiazhuang personally, and ask the head of the Gu family to come and ask questions."

   "Will Mr. Gu come to the county government office?"

   Tang Weiming frowned, and looked at Chu Nanzhi anxiously.

  This is not a child's play, such a great Confucianist in the world should not be offended.

  Although Zhan He suspects that Gu Lei sent someone to assassinate Chang Lao and slaughter Qian's family, but there is no conclusive evidence.

  Hearing that the queen was going to get someone, my heart became agitated: "Queen, I'm an official"

   "Don't need to say too much, I just told Gu Lao to come to the county government for questioning, there is no other meaning."

  Chu Nanzhi interrupted Zhan He, Wen said with a smile: "Could it be that the empress who is about to be canonized in this palace invites a famous person from a state to come to talk and be instructed?"

   "The lower officials dare not."

  Jan He tremblingly shook his head.

"go quickly."

  Chu Nanzhi urged Tang Weiming to go, while she stayed and continued to interrogate the details of the murder of the Qian family.

  Jan He summoned the county lieutenants and guards who were going to conduct a thorough investigation to the courtyard for her to dispatch.

  Looking at a group of cautious county government officials, Chu Nanzhi showed a relaxed smile on purpose, and asked casually: "I heard that the assassination of Chang Lao and the murder of Qian's family were all carried out by Tong Xianwei in person."

   "Exactly."

   Lieutenant Tong Xian replied cautiously.

   "Apart from the autopsy report made by Wu, what other findings did Lieutenant Tong have?"

  Chu Nanzhi casually flipped through the file, not checking the expressions of the few people.

   Seeing her being so approachable, everyone's nervousness eased a lot.

  Tongxian Lieutenant replied meticulously: "Don't dare to lie to the queen. The lower officials sent people to search around and found no clues. The murderer is really cunning."

   "It can be concluded that it was done by people in the army. This is an important clue."

  Chu Nanzhi raised her head and comforted her.

  In Luyan Port, she was used to dealing with officials of the county government, and she knew the style of these people very well.

  As for how to proceed with this serial murder case, she had already decided not to start with the case itself, only by taking a long line to catch big fish.

  The so-called well-known scholar in Langzhou, Gu Lei, is the long line she let out. If this person is really inseparable from this case, today he can pierce his hypocritical mask.

   But if he didn't do this, she had to make some preparations before meeting him.

After thinking about it for a long time, Chu Nanzhi pretended to be nonchalant and began to gossip with several officials: "I have heard about Gu Lao's reputation, but just a few words from him can make the whole Lang Pregnant women in the prefecture dare not give birth, and even the newborn baby in this palace cannot even get a wet nurse, thinking about it is horrifying, but I don't know what he can do?"

"The queen's position and honor and favor, mother's honor to the world, we are naturally in awe, but the queen will always go back to Beijing. Excluding the three states of Qinghe, this famous family in Langzhou can occupy half of my dynasty. If you want to be safe and sound in Langzhou To make a living, you should give some face to these famous families."

  Jan He replied with a smile.

  Although he had already heard that the queen was trying to test everyone's tone, he was very aggrieved after being the magistrate of this county for several years, and he kept talking a lot. At this time, he deliberately incited the anger in Chu Nanzhi's heart.

  Unexpectedly, as soon as he finished speaking, the county magistrate and county lieutenant were dissatisfied, and they all cast supercilious glances at him.

Lieutenant Tongxian hurriedly added: "Speaking of which, Langzhou is indeed no better than other places. Even the previous emperors had ordered to allow Langzhou to follow the ancestral system. It must not ruin the reputation of this ancient capital, which has been famous for thousands of years for its filial piety, benevolence and righteousness. The national mourning should not be sloppy, the common people are deeply favored by the emperor, so they should observe the funeral for the late emperor."

"I see."

  Chu Nanzhi smiled slightly.

  In an instant, he saw that there were many things in Zhan He's heart that he dared not say.

   At this time, I probably understood the reason why we couldn't find a wet nurse. I'm afraid it was a fulfillment of the saying "There are no tigers in the mountains, but monkeys rule the world".

Glancing at the crowd lukewarmly, when looking at the county magistrate Zhan He, Chu Nanzhi's eyes were a bit more meaningful, and then asked: "I heard that all women who give birth during the national mourning period will be delivered by According to the official registration and inspection, this Jichun County is also considered a large county, so there must be quite a few women who are in labor in this month or so, after all, they are conceived in October, so can they hide the fetus so smoothly?"

   "Naturally so..."

The county magistrate and the county lieutenant were about to rush to answer, but Zhan He's voice immediately overwhelmed the two of them: "How can it be so smooth, it is not easy for a woman to conceive, let alone when it is time to give birth, there are ways to have an abortion , using drugs to forcibly give birth to a stillborn fetus, or using external force to beat, compress and vibrate the abdomen to cause the fetus to abort, and what's more, there are many people who drown the fetus and discard it."

  He said such a sad thing calmly, which made Chu Nanzhi very angry.

  Chu Wenbi immediately reprimanded angrily, "Magistrate Zhan, as a parent and official, you are so shameless that you despise other people's lives."

  Jan He, however, looked like a broken can, and immediately knelt down, took off the black gauze cap and held it in front of him, and said in a deep voice: "Your official is ashamed of treating the people of this county, and please punish the queen."
