Chapter 201
Wang Yanqing's expression became puzzled, and she asked in a low voice, "What's wrong with this?"
Lu Heng smiled and said: "There's nothing wrong. It's just that I'm a suspicious person. No matter what I encounter, I'm used to denying it first and then pushing the proof. There are candles burning in the room, and the tears of the candle should flow evenly from all sides, but the candlesticks in the apse of Qingxu Temple are even Qi was in tears in the northeast. This can only mean that the candles were burning with the doors and windows open, and the southwest wind was blowing that day."
Wang Yanqing could not understand what he heard, but Lu Heng felt her soft fingers, her gesture of complete trust, and added with a smile: "On the twenty-sixth day, there was a southwesterly wind. Cheng Youhai learned that something was wrong, so he quickly found someone to remedy it. He mobilized the craftsmen in the whole house to make 102 paper figurines, which will be completed on the evening of the 26th. He took one paper figurine to scare me and put another 100 paper figurines. The rest were placed in Qingxu Temple, and the dojo was set up in a hurry. They led me to Qingxu Temple on the 27th. In order to make the candles burn as soon as possible, they could only open the windows for ventilation. Weakness. Cheng Youhai has been an official for many years and knows a lot of tricks to solve cases. He noticed that I had deliberately checked the dust at Liu's house, so he sprinkled fine soil on the altar and forged a look that was displayed two or three months ago. But he forgot that it was raining in May and June this year, and the brocades and papers on the altar had fallen into the cold and wet apse for a long time. No trace of mold."
Lu Heng said, and sighed: "There are too many flaws, it's really stupid and terrifying."
Wang Yanqing was silent for a long time, and suddenly felt a chill down his spine: "I think you are the scarier one."
Because of the sudden arrival of Yuexin, Wang Yanqing did not go to Qingxu Guan, but according to Lu Heng's description, she already felt Lu Heng's terrible observation ability and reasoning ability.
Cheng Youhai was able to notice that Lu Heng was checking the dust, that he could arrange for his officers and soldiers Jin Chan to escape from their shells and play tricks, and that he could remember to forge dust on the offering table. Cheng Youhai is not stupid at all, on the contrary, this person is very thoughtful. If it were an ordinary official, he would be like a headless fly, and would have been led by Cheng Youhai long ago.
However, Cheng Youhai's strong anti-reconnaissance awareness still lost to Lu Heng. It can only be said that a mountain is higher than a mountain, and there are metamorphosis in the metamorphosis.
Wang Yanqing threw himself on the ground in admiration and asked, "Since the Qingxu Temple altar is fake, then Tang Saier's portrait, the White Lotus Sect and other evidence are also deliberately placed there for you to discover? But in the file, there are clearly villagers who reported the case, saying that they had left at night. On the way, I saw the Taoist priest Qingxuguan carrying something..."
"It's fake." Lu Heng said, "I checked the astronomical journal of Weihui Mansion. There was no moon that day, and they were walking at night. How could they see the Taoist priests carrying things?"
Wang Yanqing was speechless for a while, and asked after a long time, "Cheng Youhai is pretending to be a paper figure, forging an altar, and sending someone to report a fake case. What does he want to do after so much trouble?"
"People die for wealth, birds die for food, he is an official in the court, why else?" Lu Heng said with a smile, "Do you think he doesn't know there is a flaw in the scene he hastily arranged? He knows, but he doesn't care. , or this is also a part of his plan. Liu's mother-in-law and daughter-in-law reported the incident and stabbed the matter directly to the emperor. Privately storing gold mines is a capital crime of looting a family and destroying a family. Once it is found out, neither he nor his family can escape. The emperor's faith is known to all the dynasties, so he wants to forge a mysterious technique, and blame the disappearance of more than 100 people on the strange power and chaos. But the emperor is only a believer, not stupid, and Cheng Youhai also knows that the paper man theory can't stand. So he prepared follow-up tactics. He secretly hid a portrait of Tang Saier in the Qingxu Temple, killed Tao Yiming after the incident, disguised as a local magistrate and colluded with the White Lotus Sect, kidnapped more than 100 people, and arrived At that time, the attention of the court was drawn away by the White Lotus Sect. Who would stare at the missing villagers? No change of commander was allowed before the battle. Qian has a big face. If the plan is successful, he will get rich and famous, and he will benefit from no capital."
Wang Yanqing understood, Tao Yiming and Cheng Youhai seemed to be working together to deal with the aftermath, but Cheng Youhai wanted to make Tao Yiming a scapegoat, while Tao Yiming hesitated to expose Cheng Youhai to protect himself; Lu Heng seemed to solve the case according to Cheng Youhai's design, but in fact it had already been done. dòng learned about their plan and deliberately acted with them. During the half-day tour of Qingxuguan, the three officials seemed to be cooperating to investigate the case, but in fact, everyone was scheming and acting independently. Wang Yanqing regretted missing this scene.
Wang Yanqing sighed slightly and asked, "Where did the real Taoist priests in Qingxu Temple go?"
"Probably dead." Lu Heng said flatly, "I asked Fang Ji to go to the back to find the trace of the Taoist priest. In fact, I was looking for a burial place. They rummaged on the mountain for an afternoon and finally found it."
No wonder Chen Yuxuan was with Lu Heng just now, and Fang Ji was not seen. Wang Yanqing finally sorted out what had happened during this time. She sat upright, looked at Lu Heng, and suddenly became serious: "Tao Yiming and Cheng Youhai were originally grasshoppers on a rope, but now they are suspicious of each other. Second brother, What role did you play in it?"
Lu Heng smiled slightly, as if he didn't understand: "What?"
"Last night, after I fell asleep, I vaguely heard someone going out. That person is you." Wang Yanqing stared at her quietly, her eyes clearly reflecting the miniature of Lu Heng, "What did you do out?"
