Chapter 12 The Unbelievable Murderer
The more Xiao Jinyi thought about it, the angrier he became. He almost became a knife in the other party's hand. However, he was becoming more and more interested in the person behind the scenes. Who on earth had set up such a place in Qiuyuan Hutong and set up the trap in advance to make Jiang Bin a scapegoat for himself?
He would never be able to figure out what was going on by himself, so Xiao Jinyi asked Mo Yu to check Shen Shixu's residence. He planned to go find this expert in solving cases and ask for his advice.
Shen Shixu is so good at solving cases, maybe we can find out who the real murderer is by listening to him!
At this time, Shen Shixu was sitting under the osmanthus tree in the small courtyard he rented, drinking wine and admiring the bright moon. When he was in a good mood, suddenly a black shadow flipped over from the other side of the wall.
Shen Shixu was so frightened that he almost fell off his chair. Xiao Jinyi felt very sorry when he saw that he was scared by him.
"Are you okay? There are new problems in the case. The real murderer is not Jiang Bin. I wanted to ask your opinion, but when I saw the door was closed, I climbed over the wall and came in. I didn't expect to scare you."
Shen Shixu thought it was some thief, but when he saw clearly that it was Xiao Jinyi, he breathed a sigh of relief.
"It's okay, but you said the real murderer is not Jiang Bin, what's going on?" Shen Shixu was very confused about what Xiao Jinyi said.
Xiao Jinyi told Shen Shixu everything that happened when he went to arrest Jiang Bin, and that he had asked someone to check and found that no one around Jiang Bin was a suspect.
After listening to what Xiao Jinyi said, Shen Shixu had a new idea, "I think you are going in the wrong direction. Is there a possibility that someone deliberately let Jiang Bin buy the house?
And you also need to find someone to investigate the woman he had hidden in his secret house.
In addition, although the underground palace is not very large, it cannot be dug overnight, and the time span is not right.
Jiang Bin bought the house a year ago, and Qiaoying has been missing for two years. So who owned the house two years ago?
Also, the little beggar said before that the house belonged to Big Gold Tooth. If you think about it carefully, there are still doubts everywhere in this case. We have to continue digging deeper. The person who had Jiang Bin's mistress in the mansion must be found out, and the man with the big gold tooth must also be investigated. We also need to find out who owned the house before it came into Jiang Bin's hands? ”
Xiao Jinyi looked at Shen Shixu who was speaking very clearly and felt that he had made the right decision to come to him.
"Okay, I'll let Mo Yu check it out now. There should be results tomorrow morning. You should have a good rest first. I'll come to see you tomorrow."
Shen Shixu nodded, and after Xiao Jinyi left, he asked Mo Yu to check according to what Shen Shixu had just said.
Mo Yu didn't expect that he wouldn't be able to sleep tonight, but thinking about the holiday tomorrow and the extra salary this month, he gritted his teeth and went to check.
However, he couldn't bear this crime alone, so he asked his good brother Bai He, who was also Xiao Jinyi's other confidant, to go and investigate separately with him.
The high monthly salary of Prince Jing's Mansion is not so easy to get, and it is not so easy to become Xiao Jinyi's confidant. The Black and White Devils of Prince Jing's Mansion will know their effectiveness once they make a move.
The next day, before Shen Shixu woke up, Xiao Jinyi came to his courtyard with the things that Mo Yu and Bai He had found out after staying up all night.
Xiao Jinyi looked at Chen Shixu who had not woken up yet, and did not rush to wake him up. He took the things he had found and sat in the place where Chen Shixu sat yesterday, lowering his head to think.
He wanted to see if he could analyze something useful.
When Shen Shixu woke up, changed his clothes, and was about to come out to wash up, he ran into Xiao Jinyi's tall back.
"Your Highness, why are you here so early? Have you checked everything?"
Xiao Jinyi hummed softly and handed the paper in his hand to him. Shen Shixu didn't even bother to wash up and started reading it.
The man who had hidden a mistress in Jiang Bin's mansion disappeared from everyone's sight not long after leaving Jiang Bin. After investigation, it was determined that the death was caused by silencing, and Da Jin Ya was indeed the owner of the house, but it was two years ago.
Bai He pulled Da Jin Ya out of bed in the middle of the night and interrogated him personally. He found out that Da Jin Ya was hired by someone else to buy the house. The house was registered in his name, but the money was not his at all.
Even when he sold the house to Jiang Bin a year ago, it was the person who gave him the money to buy the house who told him to do it.
And they have found the person who hired Da Jin Ya to buy the house, it was Jiang Hu.
This Jiang Hu is Jiang Bin's father and someone close to Jiang Xingbang.
After Shen Shixu learned of Jiang Hu's identity from Xiao Jinyi, he placed his suspicion on Jiang Xingbang.
It's not that Shen Shixu looked down on Jiang Hu, but Jiang Hu, a servant, no matter how popular he was in his master's house or how much reward he got, could not have enough financial resources to support him digging such a big hole under the house.
There are also the clothes and gouache used by the girls, which are also a considerable expense. Finally, there is the group of people he hired. Jiang Hu could not afford to pay for the employment of that group of people even if he worked for another 20 years.
Therefore, Shen Shixu suspected Jiang Xingbang, who was related to Jiang Hu and had financial resources and ability, but this person was the most unlikely person in everyone's mind.
In addition to being the eldest princess's son-in-law, Jiang Xingbang was also the Minister of Personnel. There was a rule in the country that no son-in-law could serve as an official in the court. In addition, when Emperor Wu'an ascended the throne in his early years, he saved the prince's life with his own life, so Jiang Xingbang held a high position in the court.
It's just that he hasn't attended court for more than half a month due to illness these days, and is now recuperating in a hot spring resort in the suburbs.
In everyone's eyes, Jiang Xingbang was a gentle and good-tempered person. He loved his wife and children, never took a concubine, and never went to any romantic places.
Every day he either went to court or handled matters in the Ministry of Personnel, or went home to accompany the eldest princess. Apart from his poor health and the need to rest frequently, he had no other shortcomings.
"Your Highness, let's go to the manor where Lord Jiang is recuperating. We should conceal our identities and go there in secret."
For the first time, Xiao Jinyi didn't want to believe Shen Shixu. If things were really as Shen Shixu guessed, he was afraid that Princess Kangning would not be able to accept it.
"Okay, go wash up, have breakfast, and then we'll set off." Xiao Jinyi is not a person who can't distinguish between public and private. He won't fail to investigate because he is worried about Princess Kangning. If it is really Jiang Xingbang who did it as Shen Shixu guessed.
That is also a good thing for Princess Corning. After all, no one can sleep well every night with such a terrible person by her side.
After eating the breakfast prepared by Xiao Shitou, Xiao Jinyi changed into the clothes prepared by Shen Shixu, and disguised themselves as two scholars going for an outing and went to the vicinity of Jiang Xingbang's farm.
Shen Shixu and the others did not go up and knock on the door directly, but climbed over the wall and sneaked in as before.
Because it was a surprise attack, they actually discovered Jiang Xingbang's tail.
