Chapter 44
Lu Heng nodded and admitted. When he saw the branches outside, he thought it was too thin. Liang Wei was a Jinyiwei after all, so how could he allow his daughter to embroider a tree in front of the building and go straight to the outside of the wall. The tree has been trimmed, and the branch leading to the outside of the wall is newly grown, and it is not thick. A person as light as Wang Yanqing would float slightly when he walked up. If an adult man of Feng Liu's physique climbed up, he would be broken in just two steps.
Later, when Lu Heng heard Liang Fu's testimony, he became more speechless. Are you afraid that you will not be conspicuous when you wear red clothes when you have an affair? Therefore, the clothes are just a trick, and the people behind the scenes want to use the clothes to blame Feng Liu for the purpose. Only women or underdeveloped teenagers meet the conditions for climbing the tree, and very few women can jump over such a long distance. Therefore, the ones who escaped from the tree that day were mostly slender, light and athletic teenagers.
People who meet these conditions at the same time are close at hand.
Wang Yanqing's face was heavy, and she raised her eyebrows and said, "Is it Liang Bin?"
Perhaps more than that, on the 17th, Liang Rongtian went out as soon as dawn. He didn't talk to anyone all the way, but he let many people see his clothes and the matter of going out. This move was abnormal and almost deliberate, as if he was deliberately creating the illusion that Liang Rong was still alive. Liang Bin is slender, but he is no different from an adult. If he puts on his brother's cloak and covers half of his face with a hat, he should be able to disguise Liang Rong at first glance.
Wang Yanqing guessed that Liang Rong died on the night of the 16th. The next morning, Liang Bin wore Liang Rong's clothes and walked out from the front door, then took off his cloak and quietly came back through the side door. timeline. But he didn't expect Liang Fu to come too. Liang Bin and Liang Rong both lived in the outer courtyard, and their rooms were facing each other. Liang Bin deliberately avoided the concierge and came back from the side door. Unexpectedly, someone at the door bumped into Liang Fu.
Liang Fu had been here last night, and she even picked up a bead this morning. Liang Bin mistakenly thought that Liang Fu knew something, so he had murderous intentions and led to the later Tong Jian case.
Lu Heng was noncommittal and said, "The person who framed Liang Futong may not be the same as the person who killed Liang Rong. Let's find the owner of that bead first."
Chapter 17 The Real Murderer
Lu Heng recognized that the pearl fell from the shoe, and it was much easier to know the object. Lu Heng quickly found a shop that made this kind of shoe. Wang Yanqing compared the sample and found that the pearl on the toe and Liang Fu picked it up. arrived exactly the same.
Wang Yanqing put down her things and nodded lightly to Lu Heng. Lu Heng thought that it was still necessary to bring a woman with him when investigating the case, at least it would be much more convenient to check the evidence of such a woman. Lu Heng looked at the shopkeeper and asked, "Has anyone bought this kind of shoes?"
The shopkeeper rubbed his hands together, wondering, "Officials, our shop is a small business, and we make clothes for the families of officials and wealthy businessmen. Shoes and socks are women's private things, and it is not convenient to disclose them to outsiders."
The shopkeeper thought that after revealing the personal connections of their store, some ignorant customers should retreat. However, the man whose skin was so outstanding that he could be called beautiful just looked at him and smiled, and calmly took out an iron token.
The shopkeeper glanced at the token, and vaguely scanned the word "jin", and did not dare to look down. The shopkeeper's forehead kept oozing cold sweat, and he said with an apologetic smile: "It turned out to be Lord Jin Yiwei. Lord, wait a moment, the little one will go to get the account book."
After Lu Heng revealed his identity, everyone became very talkative. The shopkeeper quickly brought the account book, Wang Yanqing turned page by page, suddenly pointed to a place and said to Lu Heng, "Second brother, look here, Liang Wenshi ordered a pair of shoes here at the beginning of last month."
Liang Wenshi bought the new product just now, with pearls on the toe cap, which should have been specially made for Liang Wei Shouxiao. Lu Heng made a rough calculation, looking at the degree of wear and tear of the beads, the time also matched. The shopkeeper was still standing beside him. Hearing the words, he hurriedly said, "This is a new sample from the store. If the lady likes it, the villain will ask the man to pack a few pairs for the lady."
Wang Yanqing is dressed as usual now, but she is so smart in Lu Mansion that she doesn't need the shoes here. She was about to refuse, but saw Lu Heng look up, looking at the shopkeeper with mixed eyes: "What do you call her?"
The shopkeeper was so frightened that he stammered: "Isn't this lady the lady of an adult?"
Wang Yanqing was embarrassed and hurriedly said, "Storekeeper, you misunderstood, this is my brother."
Only at this moment did the shopkeeper notice that Wang Yanqing was still wearing an unmarried woman's bun, and she couldn't help but look embarrassed. Seeing that the two of them were very close, he didn't shy away from touching and talking in front of people, so he thought they were a couple. As for the woman calling the man second brother... There are so many women who call the lover brother, the shopkeeper thought it was someone's love of husband and wife.
Who knows, it turned out to be a "brother" instead of a "loving brother". The shopkeeper smiled and muttered in his heart. The two of them didn't look alike at all, and they always stood close to the body. Who would have thought that they were brother and sister.
After Wang Yanqing explained, he felt embarrassed and took a step forward silently. Lu Heng glanced at Wang Yanqing in disbelief, and said to the shopkeeper, "We have taken the account book, and I will send it to you when we run out."
"Don't dare." The shopkeeper dared to let Jin Yiwei come to the door, and said quickly, "This account book store is not needed, and I don't dare to bother the adults to make a trip. The adults need it, just take it."
The shopkeeper thanked Lu Heng and Wang Yanqing for sending Lu Heng and Wang Yanqing out. The man hid behind the counter and asked cautiously, "The shopkeeper, is there anything wrong with Mrs. Liang's shoes? Why are Jin Yiwei here?"
