The Famous Detective of the Red Mansion

Chapter 926: Deliberate [below]

Views:

After the second round of interrogation, Sun Shaozong reconfirmed that, in addition to the rebellious behavior on the surface, Lin Qisheng also hid a big, unknown secret.

And most of these secrets are related to women, a woman he would never dare to touch on the bright side, otherwise Lin Qisheng wouldn't cover it up in every possible way.

So that afternoon, Sun Shaozong focused his suspicions on two people: Lin Xiuyuan's concubine Liang Nianxiao, and ... daughter-in-law Shen Peilan.

Compared to the affair with Zhao Yingying and the indecent affair with the relatives of the younger generation, it is obviously a hundred times more serious!

Among the two, Shen Peilan was undoubtedly more suspicious.

She is now a widow, without a man to protect her, and she was born petite and lovely, which is the most suitable for Lin Qisheng's taste in recent years...

and many more!

The tunnel was rebuilt three years ago.

Lin Xiuyuan's eldest son fell ill two and a half years ago and passed away four months later.

Two years ago, Lin Qisheng's mental state had problems, and it was gradually difficult to control his emotions.

Lin Qisheng was forced to take office half a month ago, and then he dismissed all the servants around him.

After that, Lin Qisheng was alone in the backyard every day, and went to the concubine's room every five days to make a appearance. He didn't mind showing his incompetence in front of the concubine at all.

It was obviously soft to the end, and half a drop of public rations could not be handed over, but Lin Qisheng was getting more and more tired...

If Shen Peilan is included as an important part, it seems that this series of messages can be linked together!

Three years ago, Lin Qisheng began to have an affair with his grandson-in-law Shen Peilan. In order to facilitate the tryst, he specially asked someone to build a secret room or a tunnel.

Two and a half years ago, the eldest grandson of the Lin family discovered the incestuous behavior of his wife and grandfather, but because of his reputation or fear of his grandfather, he did not dare to speak out, and finally became depressed and died four months later.

After the eldest grandson died of illness, perhaps because of his conscience, Lin Qisheng's mental state gradually developed problems, and he became unable to control his emotions.

During this period, perhaps in order to get rid of his obsession with his grandson-in-law, he not only accelerated the pace of concubinage, but even extended his claws to Zhao Yingying, who was already married.

But obviously, all his 'efforts' ended in failure.

The grandfather and grandson still maintain an absurd relationship.

Half a month ago, Lin Qisheng was forced to retire and return to his hometown. When he thought about returning to his hometown, it would be difficult to meet his grandson-in-law again in the short term, so he simply dismissed all the people around him and started working overtime to make up for it in advance.

Of course, it might actually be Shen Peilan who took the initiative to propose the dismissal of the servants. The purpose was naturally to carry out her long-planned revenge plan!

Then, Shen Peilan, together with his accomplices, poisoned Lin Qisheng in the secret room of his usual rendezvous, and let his accomplices pretend to be Lin Qisheng in an attempt to confuse the time when the body was found...

and many more!

If that's the case, even if they want to create an alibi, there's no need to risk being exposed and act out for days at a time, right

Considering that Lin Qisheng would pretend to be a concubine every five days in order to cover up, yesterday it can be said that he had reached the limit of impostor.

This extreme operation is just to confuse the time of death of Lin Qisheng

Can't figure it out, really can't figure it out.

But now that we have the direction of the investigation, we should try to track it down first, and it will not be too late to continue to scrutinize when new information is found, or if the path is different.

Thinking of this, Sun Shaozong asked the yamen on the side: "The Lin family, are they all worshipping in the mourning hall now?"

The yamen hurriedly reported that not only people from the Lin family, but also the old servants who were close by had heard the news and rushed over. They were currently building a tent in the courtyard. It was estimated that before the evening, monks and Taoist priests would come to do water and land work. Dojo.

When Lin Xiuyuan released the news, he deliberately concealed the cause of Lin Qisheng's death. In addition, Lin Qisheng had just retired to his post not long ago. From the outsiders' point of view, he probably died of illness or died.

As the saying goes, "When a person is about to die, his words are good." Since he did not know that he died of poisoning, naturally no one doubted that the so-called reissue of the case money was actually a tricky thing.

The book is back to normal.

However, he said that Sun Shaozong rushed to the mourning hall and first offered incense to worship according to the rules. After the family answered the ceremony, he invited Lin Xiuyuan outside, saying that in order to solve the case, he would carefully search every room in the Lin residence.

Because he had already mentioned the secret room in the morning, Lin Xiuyuan had no objection to it, but to avoid offending the female family members of his house, he said that during the search, he must bring two maids from the Lin house.

It's nothing, anyway, as long as the owner of his family agrees, how dare the mere two maidens dare to do anything

Seeing Lin Xiuyuan calling out to the two maids, and screeching to his face, Sun Shaozong subconsciously looked at Shen Peilan, who was kneeling in the mourning hall wearing robes and filial piety.

At this glance, he couldn't help but froze.

Because of the sad look on Shen Peilan's brows, there was no sign of falsification at all, and it was even more mournful than others crying.

If she was really the murderer, how could she cry so sadly in front of Lin Qisheng's spirit

Could there be any true love between her and Lin Qisheng? !

This is too absurd, isn't it? !

If so, why would she kill Lin Qisheng

Could it be that the murderer is someone else

But if she wasn't the murderer or accomplice, how could Lin Qisheng's body be kept in the underground secret room for four or five days

"Master Sun, it's just the two of them."

While he was completely confused, Lin Xiuyuan had already brought the two maids over there, and instructed him face to face: "You just need to watch, don't interfere with the officials' investigation!"

Wait for the two maids to respond obediently.

Although Sun Shaozong hadn't figured it out yet, he wasn't afraid that the delay would lead to him showing his guilt.

The first search was not for Shen Peilan, who was the most suspicious person, but Lin Qisheng's concubines.

This is naturally for the purpose of laying the groundwork, otherwise, as soon as they come up and go straight to Shen Peilan, I am afraid that everyone will see something wrong. Lin Xiuyuan is currently supporting the investigation, but she must know that she is suspicious of his daughter-in-law, and will I wouldn't expect Sun Shaozong to continue investigating, but it's hard to say.

But he said that while he was leading the yamen to dig three feet in the ground, Sun Shaozong's mind kept showing the appearance of Shen Peilan's pear blossoms and rain.

Why is she crying so sadly

If it is said that Shen Peilan is acting, it really doesn't make sense-because she has obviously cried too hard and has crossed the emotional boundary between her grandfather and grandson-in-law.

A person who can act well enough to hide from his own eyes should not make such a low-level mistake, right

After racking his brains, Sun Shaozong couldn't come up with a reason.

Fortunately, the search team finally found Shen Peilan's courtyard.

Perhaps, the answer he wants is in it!
