Chapter 739: A Journey of Reminiscence



Li Siniang screamed and almost fainted. Liu Er's death was horrible. Shen Zhonghuan blinked in fear and quickly hid at the door. Shen Zhongan walked up to him tactfully and calmly to check his breath. He was indeed dead, but Liu Er was strangled to death. There were dark purple bruises on his neck and something seemed to be stuffed into his nostrils. It turned out to be a stone. It seemed that the stone was picked up at the door.

"Someone's dead, someone's dead." Li Siniang held her chest and her face turned pale, her vision was blurred as if double. Shen Zhongan called several times before Li Siniang walked into the room trembling, "Sir, do you have any instructions?"

Li Siniang lowered her head in fear, not daring to look at Liu Er's body. She was afraid that she would have another nightmare tonight. Shen Zhongan looked at Li Siniang in front of him and said, "Did you hear any noise in his room a few days ago?" Li Siniang rolled her eyes and shook her head and said, "Just two days ago, I seemed to hear the sound of Liu Er drinking and breaking dishes. I muttered a few words in depression and went back to sleep. I didn't expect that he...he was actually dead..."

Li Siniang's voice was trembling and her whole body was shaking. She didn't dare to look at Liu Er's body. Shen Zhongan looked at the signs in the house and found no signs of fighting at all, so he concluded that the person who came to see Liu Er that day must be an acquaintance.

There was no sign of the door being opened. It seemed that Liu Er had mistakenly thought that no one was home, so he closed the door. He did not expect that the man had been lying in ambush in his house for a long time. So after killing Liu Er, the man jumped out of the window. Looking at Li Siniang who was trembling with fear in front of him, he walked up to her and asked, "Who does Liu Er have a grudge against?"

"If there is any grudge, then everyone in the village has a grudge against him. Liu Er is a dirty and vile person, and there are many people who want to kill him." Li Siniang said the latter sentence weakly and quickly lowered her head.

This guilty expression was quickly caught by Shen Zhongan, "So you also have a motive to kill him, right?"

"I... Sir, I am just a little girl. I am always bullied by Liu Er. How could I kill him? Besides, didn't you just say that she was strangled to death? How could I have such a strong strength to strangle a man!"

Li Siniang took a deep breath, her heart was beating fast, she just wanted to leave this unlucky place as soon as possible. Shen Zhonghuan came to Shen Zhongan and said, "Okay, okay, don't you see she is scared? Liu Er must not have been killed by her, how could she have that much strength?"

"That makes sense, but how come Li Siniang has the hairpin you dropped?"

Shen Zhongan was just testing her, but he didn't expect Li Siniang to reveal her true colors. He quickly shook his head and said, "I didn't bring a hairpin that day! This hairpin is definitely not mine!"

"………" Shen Zhonghuan covered his nose gently. The matter soon came to light. Shen Zhongan had Li Siniang brought back to the yamen to begin the trial. Since Ji Heng was not there, Rong Zhen would temporarily judge the case for him. He sat on a chair in the middle of the hall, looking at the woman kneeling in front of him, trembling with fear and with messy hair.

"Who are you? Tell me your name!" Rong Zhen stared at the woman in front of him with fierce eyes and a stern look on his face.

"To answer your question, sir, my name is Li Siniang..." Li Siniang was trembling, her voice as weak as a mosquito.

"Did you kill Liu Er and how did you kill Liu Er?"

Rong Zhen looked at the kneeling Li Siniang with a majestic face. Li Siniang raised her head with tears in her eyes. She shook her head and said, "You are innocent. Liu Er was not killed by me. It was... Wang Dajun."

"Who is the Wang Dajun you are talking about?" Rong Zhen looked at Li Siniang in front of him calmly, and Li Siniang told him the truth of what had happened with tears in her eyes. It turned out that it was indeed Liu Er who poisoned Li Siniang's cow.

Li Siniang has always been resentful about this matter, and wanted to find an opportunity to take revenge on Liu Er, so she wanted to poison his wine. Unexpectedly, she was seen by Wang Dajun. On that day, Wang Dajun was going to find Niu Er to discuss something, and had some negotiations with Niu Er.

Wang Dajun exposed her, and after her failed poisoning, Wang Dajun caught her with evidence. She went to bed with Wang Dajun that night. After the pleasure under the bed, Li Siniang decided to use her beauty to seduce Wang Dajun to avenge him. At first, Wang Dajun was not happy, but Li Siniang told him that as long as Liu Er died, they could get married immediately.

Moreover, he could also take back all the land of Liu Er next door. Wang Dajun thought, this way he would have beauty and money, and he would soon become a winner in life, so he lurked in Liu Er's house the next night, waited for Liu Er to come back drunk, then strangled him to death with a scarf, and escaped through the window!

After recalling all this, Li Siniang burst into tears and confessed to her crimes. Soon, the government sent people to capture Wang Dajun. At this time, Wang Dajun was taking some valuables and preparing to escape, but was caught by the officers on the way and made to kneel on the ground.

"I know I was wrong. I know I was wrong. It was Li Siniang who forced me to do this. If it weren't for her, I wouldn't have been so obsessed with money!"

Wang Dajun and Li Siniang started to blame each other. Looking at this tragic farce, Rong Zhen shook his head helplessly and slammed the gavel angrily, saying, "That's enough. One of you is a murderer, and the other instigated others to be a murderer. Both of you are guilty of the same crime! Put them in jail first!"

"The great lady of the people knows her mistake, please give me a chance!" Li Siniang's crying voice became weaker and weaker. Shen Zhongan had been standing beside her. Rong Zhen stood up and walked towards him, looking at him with admiration and patted his shoulder.

"An'er, you handled this case well. Fortunately, you discovered Li Siniang's conspiracy in time."

"Godfather, you taught me well. The key lies in the details."

Shen Zhongan was still not satisfied. Thanks to Rong Zhen for giving him this opportunity, otherwise everything would not have gone so smoothly.

"An'er, do you want to go to the Dali Temple?" Rong Zhen discovered that he had a talent for solving cases. Maybe if he trained hard, he could serve the people well.

"I have thought about the Dali Temple before, but it was just a thought. There are so many talented people there, how can I go there?" Shen Zhongan smiled helplessly. Rong Zhen saw that he was self-deprecating, which was actually very undesirable.

"An'er, don't say that. After the cases of Li Siniang and Liu Er, I found that you do have a talent for solving cases. I can write a letter of introduction. When you and your mother return to the capital, you can go to the Dali Temple. The examination to enter the Dali Temple is very strict. You need to have full confidence to be sure of your success."

Shen Zhongan looked at him with great excitement, and looked at him in ecstasy, "Really? I can really go to the Dali Temple!"
