Chapter 180: The Case of Murder and Robbery in Chongwen Gate [Part 1]

The next morning, Sun Shaozong originally planned to ask his Elder Brother about it, but when he inquired about it in the main courtyard, he knew that Sun Shaozu had gone to the Patrol Camp before dawn.

He knew that his Elder Brother didn't want to allow himself to oppose it. Sun Shaozong had to bear this matter in his heart and went to the Yamen to be on duty.

At the gate of the government office, Sun Shaozong was waiting to call the guard to take his new horse to the stables, when he saw a group of people rushing out of the house. It was Jia Yucun who was the leader!

Seeing Sun Shaozong outside the door, Jia Yucun was overjoyed. Without saying a word, he came up to Sun Shaozong and said, "You're here at the right time. Come with me on a business trip!"

Yesterday, he just had a conflict with him. He was so confused. How could Sun Shaozong do any business with him?

At the moment, it was like taking root at the foot. No matter how Jia Yucun pulled it, it was still there.

How smart was Jia Yucun?

After a couple of tugs, he saw the scruples in his heart. He quickly stepped up to Sun Shaozong's ear and whispered, "It's really a serious business. A homicide just happened in Chongwen Gate!"

Chongwen Gate?

Sun Shaozong frowned and said, "There isn't any important person living nearby, but there are many merchants."

What could make Prefectural Magistrate Jia so nervous when ordinary people live or die?

On the other hand, the thing that could make Jia Yucun so frightened must involve some great person!

Jia Yucun hurriedly added, "The dead person is not an important person, but a little widow. But the only suspect at the moment is Jia She, the Big Master of Rongguo Mansion!"

Jia She?!

Sun Shaozong was surprised. Last night, Big Master Jia went to his house as a guest. Why did he become a murderer in a blink of an eye?!

"Who reported the case?"

Immediately, he hurriedly asked, "Are there any witnesses? Has the news spread?! Who is dealing with it right now?!"

He asked these questions to find out what was behind Jia Yucun's intention of pulling him to the scene.

If no one knew about this, Jia Yucun would probably cover it up and create a scapegoat.

If he went with him, he would feel uncomfortable if he joined them. If he was not willing to join forces with others and the matter was to be disclosed, with the current power of Rongguo Mansion, seven out of ten of the chances he would have to punish with "three cups of wine."

It would only offend Rongguo Mansion in vain.

Jia Yucun said, "Zhou Da has already taken someone with him, but no one saw that it was the Big Master of the Rongguo Mansion who killed her, and he didn't admit it himself either. It was just that the neighbors saw him covered in blood, lying on the same bed with the little widow!" Diiscover new stories at novelhall.com

Lying in a bed covered with blood?

"How long did the little widow die?"

This bastard must not have dared to go out of the alley, otherwise, he would have known that there were hundreds of people watching the activity at the entrance of the alley. They should all be taken back. It was estimated that even the Guangde Emperor would have to be alarmed.

"Don't worry, Uncle!"

Jia Yucun quickly comforted him and said, "As long as we find out the truth, the rumor will be broken!"

With that, he pointed to Sun Shaozong and said, "We have Shaozu's younger brother here, he will be able to return your innocence!"

When Jia She saw Sun Shaozong, he was very busy and said, "We must make a thorough investigation!"

After saying that, he couldn't wait and said, "Yucun, please escort me back to the mansion first. I don't want to stay here for a moment!"

This straw bag really didn’t know how to see the current situation.

At present, Jia Yucun’s action has already been considered playing favoritism and committing irregularities. If he tried to escort the only suspect back into the public eye...

Unless he didn’t want his title!

"Please calm down, Uncle."

Jia Yucun smiled bitterly and said, "I'm afraid that Uncle should stay to help with this case..."

But how could Jia She listen to persuasion?

He jumped three feet high and shouted, "I didn't kill people! Why should I stay?! What do you mean, Jia Yucun? Are you suspecting me?!"

"No, no, no, how dare I!"

Jia Yucun, the official of the government, depended on Rongguo Mansion, which was much more than the Sun family. In the face of such rude acts as Jia She, he had to grovel to persuade him and try to get Sun Shaozong together.

"Uncle!"

But how would Sun Shaozong jump into the muddy water with him?

Preemptively, he said, "I will go to investigate the scene now so that I can return Uncle's innocence as soon as possible!"

To tell the truth, he was really curious about what deal his Elder Brother and Jia She had reached yesterday. Unfortunately, this was not the time to ask.

Coming out of the east chamber, Sun Shaozong took Zhou Da and Zhao Wuwei to the hall room.

After entering the door, he saw a half-naked female corpse lying on the bed, with her eyes facing the direction of the door.

"Eh?!"

After seeing the woman's face clearly, Sun Shaozong suddenly exclaimed.

It turned out that although the woman's expression was a little grim because of her pain and fear before death, her facial features and temperament were a replica of Wang Xifeng!
