Ripe Town 繁城之下 Episode 5

After two requests from Weizhi County, the government finally began to pay attention to the murder case that occurred in Zhexian and sent Captain Xia to Zhexian County to investigate. As soon as Capt. hair.

Hearing that Qu Sangeng was constantly investigating the murder case of Leng Wuji, Captain Xia came forward to ask for any clues. Qu Sangeng said that he had found a man named Chen Wang, who was once a servant of Lu Zhai. He was in the city a few days ago. He hanged himself outside and there are no more clues. Xia Baotou laughed at Qu Sangeng, calling him Leng Wuji's beloved disciple in vain. It had been a while since the incident happened, and even if he just visited Fuxing Daxing, he should have gained more than this. Qu Sangen answered without hesitation that he had already disbanded the visiting business in Ying County, saving a lot of time for Xia Captou.

As a foreign official, Xia Captou was originally planning to start by visiting banks and doing business. Now that he learned that Qu Sangen had disbanded the "Fifth Marquis Mansion", he was very angry and asked Song Chen why he agreed. Song Chen actually pulled out a handful of The missing tooth root was shown to Xia Captou for viewing. The implication was that he not only acquiesced in disbanding the visiting bank and fighting bank, but also interrogated a group of people, which has now been handed over to Futai.

Qu Sangen and Gao Shicong went to Wu Lei Zhai to look for Feng Kechui and found that a kind of paint was being brewed. Feng Kezhui told the two of them that applying the boiled paint on the paintings would make the paper look old, which was not much different from old collections of paintings. He had already sold several paintings through this method, and Qu The third watch is puzzling. The color of the paper can be faked, but the handwriting cannot lie. Feng Kechui told the two of them that he had been practicing calligraphy with his uncle since he was a child. In the entire Jing County, except for his uncle's calligraphy, I am afraid that no one can surpass him in calligraphy. As for copying, it is not a problem at all.

Qu Sangen suddenly came up with a plan to use Feng Kechui's hand to imitate Cheng Yizhi's font from the "Treatise on Febrile Diseases" preserved by Master Wang to make up a prescription. When Qu Sangen showed it to Cheng Yizhi, the other party was a little surprised at first. After calming down, he explained to Qu Sangen that he had never prescribed such a medicine, and the weight of Tripterygium wilfordii alone was enough to kill someone on the spot, and the pharmacy also I won’t take medicine randomly.

Qu Sangen simply asked Cheng Yizhi directly if he knew about Lu Yuanbao's death. Cheng Zhiyi denied it, saying that Lu Yuanbao was poisoned to death by his brother and the Yamen had already finalized the case. After a while, Cheng Yizhi seemed to have changed his mind and no longer allowed Qu Sangen to ask questions. He directly explained that even if the magistrate fell ill, he would feel his own pulse and would never be ordered around by a small policeman.

Captain Xia was only in charge for a month. In order to solve the case as soon as possible, he assigned some old cases to each of the detectives, except Qu Sangeng, who was left with the intention of accusing Qu Sangen of disbanding the visiting bank and beating the bank, leaving all the detectives to Isolate it.

Sure enough, several detectives were worried that they would not be able to complete the task within the time specified by Xia Captou, so they besieged Qu Sangeng. Song Chen happened to pass by and helped Qu Sangeng relieve the siege.

Seeing what happened to Qu Sangen in the fast class, Leng Guier helped out. He couldn't let Xia Captou bully him. If he wanted to stand up, he had to seize Xia Captou's weakness. Right now, Xia Captou's biggest worry was that he wouldn't be able to make it as scheduled. Solve the case. A person's greatest strength is often also his most fatal weakness. Qu Sangeng suddenly got inspiration. Xia Baotou's greatest strength is his stability and sophistication, and he can start from here.

Gao Shicong's team was responsible for investigating the theft of jewelry from Wang Yuanwai's home. After checking one by one with surrounding pawnshops, they finally found out that Wang Yuanwai felt sorry for his neighbor and deliberately pawned it for money, which made Gao Shicong dumbfounded.

Song Chen called Zhang Jizu to the Yamen, intending to ask about the massacre of the Lu family. When Zhang Jizu arrived, Song Chen was hearing the case of villagers seizing land. The land grabbers did not tell the truth, and were tortured by Song Chen. Only later did he confess honestly. Letting Zhang Jizu see the trial process was also a deliberate design.

Song Chen first mentioned the purchase of the Rouge Lane courtyard that Zhang Jizu had inquired about a few days ago. Zhang Jizu understood Song Chen's intention and asked Song Chen if what he wanted to know about was another house, meaning Lu House. Song Chen no longer avoided it. Zhang Jizu told Song Chen , I didn't know anything about Lu Yuanbao, let alone use punishment methods to scare him. As Zhao Juren's housekeeper, I wouldn't let Song Chen be executed casually like an ordinary citizen.

Leng Wuji's son Leng Rui had a fight with Carpenter Liu's son next door. Leng Guier told Qu Sangeng not to get involved in the children's affairs. Qu Sangeng said he would explain to Carpenter Liu in person. Gao Shicong told Qu Sangeng to ask Carpenter Liu for a request. It's early. Nowadays, everyone avoids the monkey demon and locks the door early in the evening.

Regarding the origin of the monkey demon, there is a legend in Jingxian County. One year, a monkey entertainer came from another county, and it quickly attracted the attention of the surrounding people. The children of Wuleizhai also ran to the streets to watch the fun. Master Wang was worried about neglecting his studies, so he followed The book boy was brought back to the street. After a commotion, the onlookers left one after another, and no one rewarded him. Mr. Wang asked a few wealthy young men to give some charity, but unexpectedly they were teased. Mrs. Wang was extremely angry and took the lead in ridiculing his Zhao Feng. Rishiliu was beaten violently.

Soon after, Leng Wuji arrested the monkey artist. It turned out that he often trained monkeys to steal things from other people's homes. He was severely beaten in the Yamen and died soon after. Folks began to spread rumors that the monkeys trained by this person were monkey demons. The tragic deaths of Master Wang and Leng Wuji were all caused by the monkey demons' revenge.
