Jin Yi Kill - Chapter 93

The door of Ji’s house was closed as usual, but Lu Heng pushed it open without any hindrance.

In the room, Ji Huan was still wearing middle clothes, and Jin Yiwei had blocked his mouth and knelt on the ground.

When Ji Huan saw Lu Heng and Wang Yanqing walking in, he opened his eyes wide. He was incredulous at first, but then he was not surprised when he thought about it.

After dark today, he rested as usual, but a lot of things happened during the day, and Ji Huan didn’t sleep soundly. He stumbled into a nightmare and woke up suddenly to find that there was nothing around him. He was taken aback, lifted the quilt and stood up, looking for Chang Tinglan’s trace in the house. Before he could figure out where Chang Tinglan had gone, a hand suddenly stretched out behind him, covering his mouth and knocking him down.

It was only then that Ji Huan discovered that the doors and windows had been pried open, and a group of people had sneaked into his house at some point and waited for an opportunity to attack him. Ji Huan kept wondering who this group of people was, and who wanted to put him to death? Could it be that the book got into trouble some time ago?

It wasn’t until he saw a man and a woman entering the door that Ji Huan suddenly realized that it was them. During the day, he felt that these two were not like tenants. With their appearance and temperament, why would they need to rent a house? And they kept asking about the cause of Han Wenyan’s death, which was too enthusiastic.

The room was much warmer, and Lu Heng placed Wang Yanqing to sit in it, and then he walked to the main seat, with the golden sword of the horse sitting on top.

Jin Yiwei took the cloth ball from Ji Huan’s mouth and controlled him to kneel at Lu Heng’s feet. Lu Heng flicked the dust on his sleeves and said lazily, “Tell me, what happened to you and Han Wenyan.”

When he passed the exam, he didn’t need to kneel. Ji Huan was neither humble nor arrogant even when he met Marquis Wu Ding. He lowered his eyes and did not speak. Lu Heng sighed and said, “Your wife has been taken to the prison. I thought you would know more about current affairs than her.”

Ji Huan clenched his fingers when he heard the word “Zhao Prison”, obviously he also knew what Zhao Prison represented. The muscles on the side of his face tensed unknowingly, and he said, “I know Marquis of Wuding, and I can talk to Marquis.”

Lu Heng looked at Ji Huan and smiled softly: “Do you think I’d be afraid of Guo Xun?”

What Jin Yiwei does is to monitor the ministers and investigate the dirty work of Xunqi. Are you afraid of offending people? What’s more, Ji Huan is only a little scholar, so whether Guo Xun is willing to stand up for Ji Huan or not is a matter of choice.

Ji Huan moved out of the Marquis of Wuding in order to intimidate this group of lawless eagle claws. Seeing that Ji Huan was still not cooperating, Lu Heng said without any disturbance, “Pull off his two nails, otherwise, he really thinks that Jin Yiwei is a place to do good deeds.”

The people on both sides were not moved when they heard these words, and someone came up directly with pliers. When Ji Huan saw the black and red rust on the pliers, he was so frightened that he lost his mind and hurriedly said, “Sir, spare your life, I said.”

Ji Huan didn’t know how the death of Han Wenyan would alarm Jin Yiwei, so he could only explain: “I accidentally found out that my wife had an affair with Han Wenyan. Instead, he reprimanded her and warned her to be safe in the future. Unexpectedly, she was still stubborn and stubborn, and even hooked up with Han Wenyan again. I noticed something wrong, and after going out these days, I deliberately went around in a circle and stayed there. Observing at the alley. Today, I saw Han Wenyan go out, and then the Chang family followed. The two went to a private meeting in a very secluded grove. I hid in the wood, approached quietly, and heard Han Wenyan asked Chang Shi to kill me and fly with him. I was shocked. I gave Han Wenyan my heart and my lungs, introduced him to his livelihood, and found him a house. He treated me like this. Wen Yan pushed him down, I saw him in a coma, and thought that if I retaliate with virtue, this villain will kill me. To protect myself, I can only push him into the water.”

Lu Heng looked at Ji Huan with a half-smile but a smile on his lips, but the look in his eyes was terrifying. A scholar would say that even killing people can be seen as a last resort, repaying grievances with virtue.

Lu Heng didn’t have time to explore the literati’s pathetic self-esteem, and asked, “When did you find out that Chang Tinglan and Han Wenyan were fornicating?”

It’s a double whammy to your self-esteem as a man to be pressed by another man to ask such a question condescendingly. Ji Huan’s face showed displeasure, but he still did not dare to disobey Lu Heng, and reluctantly said, “July.”

“You found out that they had an affair in July. Why didn’t you think of going to the alley to monitor them until these few days?”

“Because in the past few days, I found that Chang’s mind was often distracted and suspicious, so I stared at them secretly.”

Lu Heng thought for a while and accepted this statement. Not only women are sensitive to this kind of thing, but men can also feel the difference. In particular, Chang Tinglan has a criminal record, and Ji Huan’s vigilance makes sense.

Lu Heng asked, “How did Han Wenyan fall into a coma?”

“I was afraid of being discovered, so I didn’t dare to look out.” Ji Huan said, “I vaguely saw the two people pulling and pulling, and Chang pushed Han Wenyan hard, and Han Wenyan fell.”

“What were the two of them arguing about?”

“It’s nothing more than killing me and running away.”

Up to now, all the testimonies are in line with Chang Tinglan’s remarks. His wife cheated and murdered to protect himself. Ji Huan’s motive for committing the crime is very sufficient. Lu Heng turned to ask another thing that he found strange: “Why did Han Wenyan kill you?”

Ji Huan tightened his chin and showed repulsion, but when he saw the vicious Jin Yiwei on both sides, he finally bowed his head: “Because I wrote an article for Marquis Wu Ding, the article is too long, and I can’t finish it in a while, plus I want to help Han Wenyan, I will give him a part. I always take back the reward of Marquis Wuding as it is, but Han Wenyan feels that I have stolen it.”

“What article?”

Ji Huan hesitated and hesitated to speak. Lu Heng looked down at him indifferently: “Do you think Jin Yiwei can’t find out if you don’t tell me? You said it was one result. If I find out, it will be another result.”

Ji Huan’s lips twitched, and before he could think about it, Lu Heng waved his hand directly, motioning for his hands to put on the pliers. Ji Huan’s hand was stretched out, and the moment the cold metal touched his fingertips, Ji Huan was frightened and hurriedly pleaded, “I said, I said! It’s called “The Legend of Heroes”.”

“Say what?”

Ji Huan pursed his lips, he felt that he understood why he attracted these wolves. Jinyiwei only checked high-ranking officials Xungui, how could it be spread to Jinyiwei’s ears when a mere civilian died?

Ji Huan knew that it was not a question that he could not talk about now. Since Jin Yiwei had already come to the door, no matter what method he used, he would always force him to find out the result. He might as well take the initiative to confess, so as not to suffer from flesh and blood.

After taking the first step, the rest is much simpler. Ji Huan gave himself up and said, “Tell me about the history of Emperor Hongwu leading the hero to build a career.”

“Where is the manuscript?”

“In the cupboard under the bed.”

Lu Heng raised his chin slightly, and immediately Jin Yiwei came in to rummage. The books handed to Marquis Wuding were all transcribed, and the person who wrote the book must have left a large number of manuscripts at home. Soon, Jin Yiwei came out holding a box: “Lord, look.”

Lu Heng opened the box and took out two pages at random. The handwriting on it was fairly neat, with a lot of sketches and sketches, and there were no repetitions. Lu Heng determined that this was the manuscript, closed the box, and motioned for his subordinates to put the things away.

Lu Heng’s goal was half achieved. He changed his posture, resting his arms on the armrests at will, and asked, “Chang Tinglan said that you had an affair with Jian Yun, is there something wrong?”

When Ji Huan heard Lu Heng mentioning Jian Yun, he was obviously nervous, and hurriedly said, “Sir, this matter has nothing to do with Jane’s mother, please don’t blame the female relatives.”

“It’s up to you whether you are guilty or not.” Lu Heng said, “What is your relationship with her?”

Ji Huan lowered his head patiently and said, “It’s just that I adore her. She knows the truth, but Han Wenyan doesn’t cherish her at all, just throws her heart on the ground and tramples on her. Mother’s hair is from love to ritual, and there is nothing beyond the norm.”

Lu Heng stared at him without saying a word. The corner of Lu Heng’s mouth showed a meaningful smile. This cowardly and timid scholar did not plead for his wife, but pleaded for Jian Yun.

I don’t know whether to call him infatuated or ruthless.

Lu Heng asked, “Where is the part of the manuscript that Han Wenyan wrote?”

“It’s all here with me.” Ji Huan said, “Only I can contact the Marquis of Wuding, so Han Wenyan will hand over the manuscript to me after he has finished writing, and I will transcribe it and send it to Marquis Wuding.”

Lu Heng’s interrogation was almost over, and he looked aside calmly. Wang Yanqing was sitting in the dark place, but Ji Huan was kneeling in the bright place. She could see Ji Huan’s expression, but Ji Huan couldn’t see her clearly.

Wang Yanqing shook his head slightly, Lu Heng knew something, and motioned his subordinates to **** Ji Huan back to the prison: “Be careful on the road, don’t disturb the patrolling.”

Although Fu Tingzhou is not in the capital now, there is the Fu family’s influence in the Wucheng soldiers and Ma Si. If he is hit by the night watchman, Guo Xun will be alerted early.

Everyone in the world thinks that Jin Yiwei is flamboyant and reckless, but in Lu Heng’s place, it’s best to do as little as possible.

After Ji Huan was taken away, Lu Heng walked up to Wang Yanqing and asked, “Do you think he is lying?”

“No.” Wang Yanqing’s tone was calm and affirmed, and then he changed the subject and said, “However, he has concealed the part about Jian Yun.”

Lu Heng nodded, as he thought. Lu Heng asked, “How do you say that?”

“When you asked Jian Yun, his eyes moved more frequently, his body was stiff, and he seemed to be covering up something.”

Lu Heng also felt the same way: “I feel the same way. As a man, I can’t imagine that he found out that his wife was having an affair, rushed over to question the adulterer, and came back without doing anything. Adulterers continue to be neighbors.”

Wang Yanqing blinked, not knowing why Lu Heng was so empathetic about this kind of thing. Wang Yanqing looked at him silently and asked, “Then why do you think Ji Huan did this?”

Lu Heng shook his head: “I can’t understand this kind of behavior, and I really can’t speculate on his thoughts. Come here, let’s search Han Wenyan’s house as well. Maybe after the search, we will know why.”

Wang Yanqing was speechless. Sure enough, this was his purpose. The investigation into the death case was just a passing incident. What he really wanted to do was to search the family. Wang Yanqing nodded and said, “Okay. But it’s so late, I’m afraid everyone next door is asleep.”

What is this, Lu Heng said indifferently, “Just call her up.”

After Lu Heng finished speaking, he realized something and added in a funny way: “I’ll accompany you here, and go over when she’s dressed.”

Although Ji Huan explained the place to put the manuscript, Lu Heng still asked people to search Ji’s house, not even a single crack in the brick. Lu Heng believes that human nature is inherently evil, and he will not believe anyone’s words without verification. Lu Heng and Wang Yanqing waited at Ji’s house for a while, and Jin Yiwei came back to report that the next door had handled it. Only then did Lu Heng take Wang Yanqing to get up and go to the next place leisurely.

In the house next door, Jian Yun was already dressed, but her hair was loose and her face was haggard, as if she had just woken up. When Jian Yun saw Lu Heng coming in, she didn’t ask Lu Heng’s identity, and bowed to Lu Heng with a low brow: “The woman sees your lord.”

This is the first time that Lu Heng has entered Han Wenyan and Jian Yun’s house. He stood in front of the hall, swept the room roughly, and said, “Ji Huan killed your husband, do you know?”

Jian Yun flicked her fingers, raised her eyes in horror, and quickly lowered her eyes again: “Min women… Min women don’t know. Brother Ji is a scholar and gentle, how could he do such a thing?”

“Do you know why he wanted to kill Han Wenyan?”

Jian Yun shook her head, and Lu Heng stared down at her from a high position, and said, “Because he learned that Han Wenyan was going to kill you, he felt pity, so he simply killed Han Wenyan first.”

Jian Yun’s eyes widened, and the whole person looked stunned. There were many Jin Yiwei present at the scene, and they couldn’t help feeling pity when they saw Jian Yun, a slender woman getting involved in murder cases one after another. Wang Yanqing sighed secretly, and quietly pulled Lu Heng’s sleeve.

It was obvious that Lu Heng did it on purpose. He felt the gentle force behind him, but it didn’t arouse the kindness of Lianxiangxiyu in the slightest. Lu Heng smiled calmly and continued to ask, “Don’t you know that Han Wenyan and Chang Tinglan planned to murder you?”

Jian Yun bit her lip and finally couldn’t help it. She raised her left hand to wipe her tears: “I know that he and Mrs. Chang are not clear, but I don’t know how he managed to do this.”

Lu Heng instructed his subordinates to rummage in the yard: “Chang Tinglan gave Han Wenyan a bottle of poison. He didn’t have it on him, so he must be at home. Look for it.”

Jin Yiwei clasped his fists and took orders, turned and left the house. Lu Heng didn’t have any self-consciousness to break into the widow’s boudoir at night and need to avoid it. He walked around the house leisurely: “When did you find out that Han Wenyan and Chang Tinglan were having an affair?”

“May.”

So early. Lu Heng chuckled and asked, “Why didn’t you tell me?”

Jian Yun lowered her eyes with a wry smile on her face: “Sir, you are a man, so naturally you don’t understand a woman’s complacency. He is my cousin and my husband, so what’s the use of me saying it? It’s better to pretend not to. You know, he’ll be back after a while.”

Wang Yanqing followed Lu Heng, and when she heard this, her face showed sympathy. Lu Heng felt inexplicably rejected, he narrowed his eyes secretly, and said, “Then why didn’t you tell Ji Huan?”

“Brother Ji and I are just nodding acquaintances. How do I open up about this kind of thing?”

“Nodding acquaintance?” Lu Heng raised his eyebrows, with an inexplicable smile on his face, “You said you were nodding acquaintance, but Ji Huan was fascinated by you and called your name in his dreams. You really don’t know. How does he feel about you?”

Jian Yun lowered her head and fell silent. Wang Yanqing glanced at Lu Heng quietly, indicating that he was almost done. Lu Heng was suffocated in his heart. It was really taking advantage of him to be weak and weak. Lu Heng asked a few questions, but he actually became a villain?

Lu Heng looked at Jian Yun more and more. He walked into the study, looked at the decorations on the way, and asked, “Did you know that Han Wenyan poisoned you?”

Jian Yun shook her head, her expression suddenly stunned, showing a look of hesitation. When Lu Heng saw it, he asked, “Do you know?”

Jian Yun sighed and said, “I didn’t know it originally, but after hearing the reminder from the adults, I suddenly remembered that a few days ago, my cousin wanted to drink with me for the first time. I refused, so I had to drink with him. I left for a while, When he came back, he filled me with another glass and tried to persuade me to drink it. I had to do work at night, so I couldn’t get drunk, and accidentally knocked over the wine when I pushed it away. I was going to clean it up, but my cousin said no, he just came. Well, I don’t take it seriously…”

It didn’t feel unusual when it first happened, but looking back now, it’s horrifying. That glass of wine was probably poisoned.

It’s a pity that a person like Lu Heng never has the heart to pity the fragrant and the weak, he only cares about his case. He walked to the bookshelf, looked at the books, and asked relentlessly, “When?”

“Probably the end of last month, I can’t remember exactly which day.”

Wang Yanqing searched carefully on the bookshelf, Lu Heng handed the bookshelf to her and turned to look at the things on the desk. He picked up a pen and paused suddenly.

Lu Heng lowered his head, looked at the table with determination, put down his pen, and asked, “Ji Huan said that he asked Han Wenyan to help write a book. Is that true?”

Jian Yun nodded, “Yes.”

“What did you write?”

“The women don’t know.” Jian Yun said in a low voice, “My cousin is in charge of the house. I only take care of the housework. I don’t know about academic matters.”

Lu Heng motioned, the accompanying Jin Yiwei stepped forward, Lu Heng opened the box, took out a piece of paper, pinched it at will, and threw it to Jian Yun: “Is this Han Wenyan’s word?”

Jian Yun caught it subconsciously, unfolded it, and nodded, “Yes.”

Lu Heng nodded lightly, asked Jin Yiwei to take the paper back and put it away, and instructed, “Search the study and take away any suspicious items.” He left the study and walked into the inner room.

Jian Yun watched him go to the dormitory, and even opened the closet to check, she couldn’t help but look embarrassed, and hurriedly said: “Sir, those are the intimate clothes of the women. The women are widows now, and their fame is not worth a penny, but they can’t defile the adults. Official name. I hope you have mercy.”

This kind of thing is simple, Lu Heng waved his hand and called, “Qingqing, come and see.”

When Wang Yanqing was called over, she gave Lu Heng a strange look, but she still opened the cabinet according to her words and looked at the clothes inside. Wang Yanqing opened several boxes in a row, she was embarrassed to turn it over, and asked in a low voice, “Sir, is that enough?”

Lu Heng didn’t forget that she called him “sir”, but she actually distanced herself from him in front of others? Lu Heng narrowed his eyes slightly, but he couldn’t see it at all, and said lightly, “It’s alright.”

At this time, the people who were looking outside the courtyard also came back, clasped their fists and said, “Sir, I found a bottle of arsenic cream, which has been used.”

“Take it away.” Lu Heng raised his hand lightly, he looked back at the person searching in the study, Jin Yiwei looked embarrassed and shook his head silently.

Lu Heng was not surprised. He looked at the guards in the courtyard, his voice was calm, but no one dared to ignore his words: “Pack up the evidence and go back to the government office.”

Jin Yiwei took the lead and stood on both sides waiting for Lu Heng. Lu Heng took a few steps towards the door, and suddenly turned around and said to Jian Yun, “There are many suspicious points in the case of Han Wenyan. You should put away his belongings and wait for the interrogation.”

Jian Yun lowered her head and blessed her body, as she should be timid.

Tonight’s events were like a nightmare. Those people fell from the sky and then disappeared suddenly. In the blink of an eye, there was only a cold wind left, and the trance was like a hallucination. But Jian Yun returned to the house and looked at the rummaged study and bedroom, and knew that it was not a hallucination.

On the other side, after walking out of Jian Yun’s house, Wang Yanqing asked strangely, “What are you doing, why are you so embarrassing for a lonely woman today?”

Lu Heng just shook his head and said thoughtfully, “Back to Nanzhen Fusi, I want to re-examine Han Wenyan’s body.”
