Chapter 182 The female Taoist broke the law?

"What is the matter of the Tian family? What is that?" Peng Ji immediately sat upright and asked with wide eyes.

Li Rizhi frowned, Peng Ji was a little impatient. His expression could easily scare Rong Shuxiang. Rong Shuxiang would not dare to say anything he dared to say, especially when it comes to matters of the Tian family, isn’t that something in the palace!

Sure enough, Rong Shu burst into cold sweat on his head. He wiped his sweat and said, "Then, it seems to be a yellow sweat towel. The villain has never seen the exact appearance. He just heard from his brother that his sister-in-law had used it once, but later somehow disappeared again!"

Peng Ji snorted. He also knew that he had lost his composure just now. When he heard about the matter about the Tian family, he was a little excited, but such a thing could not be remedied. He scared Rong Shuxiang and wanted to ask for any detailed situation. Of course, it was almost impossible to refer to the details about the Tian family.

Li Rizhi said on the side: "The yellow sweat towel is not necessarily a matter of the Tian family. For example, there are many things in this Taoist temple that are yellow."

Rong Shu shouted to the repeated voice, yes, he suddenly pointed to the futon on the ground and said, "This is also yellow, maybe it is the sweat scarf of this color!"

In this era of the Tang Dynasty, although the royal family used yellow, it was not a color that was used exclusively by the royal family. Moreover, the common people could not tell what bright yellow is, what apricot yellow is, and even the earth yellow is also the kind of yellow they thought the royal used.

Li Rizhi looked at Peng Ji and saw Peng Ji's eyes flashing. He knew that he might be considering more now. For example, would the person in Jidou Temple be a relative of the royal family, a very powerful person? If he is really that kind of powerful person, then is it worth fighting for a dead ordinary citizen?

Li Rizhi turned to Rong Shu and said, "You continue to say it. Well, I guess, is your brother unable to bear it once, especially when your sister-in-law didn't go home for several days, his temper finally broke out, so he decided to go to Jidouguan to find your sister-in-law. If he meets that so-called guy who uses the things of the Tian Family, he still wants to compete with that man, but he is afraid that he can't beat that man, so he comes to you and explain his funeral?"

After pausing, Li Rizhi thought for a moment and said, "Your brother is not here to ask you to help with boxing, because his husband, he has to deal with your sister-in-law's business alone. He is just here to tell you that if he has not come back at the agreed time, you must go to him. If you can't find it, it means he is in danger, so you must report to the official, right?"

After hearing Li Rizhi's guess, Rong Shuxiang was very surprised. He looked at Li Rizhi up and down. Although he didn't know what Li Rizhi did, he probably was a staff member of the County Magistrate Peng. Otherwise, how could he get the trust of County Magistrate Peng and sit here to ask about his brother!

Rong Shu nodded and said, "Yes, this brother is right. At that time, I wanted to go to Jidouguan with my brother, but I was stopped by my brother, saying that if we went together, if something happened, no one would avenge us. If only he was going, there might not be any danger. So I kept me and I didn't go there!"

Li Ri knew: "I guess he must have left some evidence, otherwise you would have said nothing and you would have no evidence to sue your sister-in-law after he had an accident!"

When he said this, Rong Shuxiang was surprised, but was surprised and said strangely: "This, this brother, how did you know? When my brother told me, you were there? This is impossible!"

It was shocking that Li Rizhi could guess the story in a very long way. Now even Rong Shuzhi would leave evidence clearly. Can this not shock Rong Shuxiang? Information exchange was not developed at this time, so people did not have a broad understanding, and they did not know that there are people in this world who are good at reasoning and analysis, which often shocked such people to heaven, god, and immortal!

That's true now. Rong Shuxiang surprised Li Rizhi as an immortal, at least he was a half-immortal!

Even Peng Ji changed his mind about Li Rizhi. Of course, he would not think that Li Rizhi was a half-immortal and had nothing to do with Xianer. He just began to believe that Li Rizhi did have great case analysis skills, far exceeding others!

Before that, Peng Ji only thought that Li Rizhi had the ability to solve cases, and some luck, and some people praised him, so he said that he was so amazing and would solve some bizarre cases. But now he doesn't think so. He believes that Li Rizhi's ability is the first priority, and the others are just icing on the cake.

For example, what evidence would Rong Shuzhi leave behind is something Peng Ji did not expect, and he didn't even think about it in this regard.

Li Rizhi smiled slightly and said, "Didn't I say it? I guessed it."

Rong Shu nodded and said, "My brother left a small bag containing a few pills, saying that he stole it from his sister-in-law. It seemed like a drug that can make people ecstasy after taking it. It was obtained from Jidou Temple. It was a silver medicine. There was nowhere else. As long as the same medicine can be found from Jidou Temple, it proves that Jidou Temple is a silver temple. The government can search and avenge him!"

After hearing this, Li Rizhi thought to himself: "Your brother is a little naive in his mind, but he can do this and prove that he has a cautious side in his personality, but it is just too ideal."

Li Ri knew: "You will definitely not carry that thing with you. Why not go home and pick it up, let the two yamen runners go back and pick it up with you, and then bring your sister-in-law from home and let her recognize the body."

He was giving orders on behalf of Peng Ji. After Li Rizhi finished speaking, he looked at Peng Ji. Peng Ji nodded at him and said, "Go and bring those pills and your sister-in-law together."

Rong Shuxiang agreed. He was about to leave the house, but he stopped and said, "County Master, should the body of the little man's brother be taken away? He died so miserably. The little man wanted to do some rituals for him to save his undead."

Peng Ji waved his hand and said, "This is not in a hurry. This is a temple, and it is just right to mortals here. And you can just let the monks in the temple do the rituals. Your brother found them in the river behind. Isn't it okay for monks to do rituals?"

Rong Shuxiang thought about it and felt that this was right. This is the monk temple. It is much better to do rituals here than to go home to save the dead. He left the house, called two yamen runners, followed him home to get pills, and brought his sister-in-law.

Only Li Rizhi and Peng Ji were left in the room. Peng Ji turned around and knew to Li Ri: "Nephew Li Xian, according to you, this is a case of a female Taoist priest and a murderer? Do you have a clear description in your mind? Why don't you tell me about it?"

Li Rizhi was waiting for him to ask this question, coughed and cleared his throat. He then said: "After yesterday's rough investigation and what Rong Shuxiang said just now, my nephew felt that this was a vicious murder case, but the identity of the murderer might...how to say it, it might be more troublesome, and he may not be able to be arrested. If you say something wrong, I hope Peng Shibo will correct it."

This is a hint. After all, Li Rizhi is just a student who came to take the scientific examination. He has no right to go to the trial. It would be nice to allow him to listen. After all, this is Chang'an, not his hometown Xingyang. Including his fight with Peng Jiman, this is only the second time he met. Some words cannot be expressed in detail.

If the murderer's identity is troublesome, then there are ways to deal with the troubles. If the murderer's identity is ordinary, then there is a normal way to solve the case. So Peng Ji will decide how to solve the case.

Of course, Peng Ji could understand this hint. Although his ability to solve cases is not too high, his level of being an official is quite powerful. Those who can be the throne of Chang'an County Magistrate cannot be mediocre.

Peng Ji hesitated slightly and quickly made a measure in his heart. Nothing can be kept secret under the feet of the emperor. When he encountered such a case, it was impossible for him to go vaguely. The Ministry of Justice would definitely know that it would be heard in the ears of today. So under this premise, his impartial law enforcement would be more beneficial than vaguely obsessed. As long as he could satisfy the emperor, any powerful person could stand aside and not be afraid of offending anyone!

He quickly made up his mind, and Peng Ji looked righteous and said, "Nephew Li Xian, the net of heaven is vast and unlimited. No matter who the murderer is or what his identity is, in this acre of three-point land in Chang'an, anyone who dares to break the law will dare to repair whoever he dares to repair!"

This is a statement, tell Li Rizhi not to be afraid, the case is solved normally, and no one needs to give face!

Li Ri knew: "My nephew thought that the Douji Temple must be a filthy place. The female Taoist priests inside were not serious, and had many lovers, or fixed lovers to come to them to provide them with money, otherwise they would not be able to live as a rich lady."

Peng Ji nodded, and Li Rizhi said again: "Because the statue of the god worshipped in the temple is Queen Mother of the West, it is mainly about seeking a son. Of course, the female pilgrims who come to worship the gods all want to have a son. They will definitely have some conversations with the female Taoist priests and even talk a lot. This will naturally go to the backyard. If some female pilgrims cannot withstand the temptation, they will fall into depravity very quickly."

Although I can't tell you how to fall, I can imagine that Peng Ji didn't speak and filled in his mind the specific situation of how to fall.

Li Rizhi also said: "Among the lovers of female Taoist priests, or they only have a fixed lover. This lover is very powerful and often comes to Guanli to play with female Taoist priests. That day, I happened to see the Rong family's sister-in-law who came to burn incense and worship the gods. The two of them hooked up and often came here for private meetings. The lover would have bought a lot of things for the Rong family's sister-in-law, which made the Rong family's sister-in-law live a good life, but it also aroused Rong Shuzhi's suspicion."

Peng Ji nodded again, and praised Li Rizhi very much. He was in charge of Chang'an County and was one of the highest-ranking county magistrates in the Tang Dynasty. Of course, there were officials who knew how to solve the case, but his ideas were clear and he could make up the general cause of the case based on various evidence. There were very few such officials.

Most officials nowadays deal with the situation when they are tricked, and rarely take the initiative to analyze the case. Instead, they encounter something, first find the suspect and then use the board to hit it. If the person is hit right, the case will be solved quickly. If the person is hit wrong, then find another suspect and then hit the board.

The so-called expert in case solving is basically an official who beats people and mistakes less often. However, there are very few people like Li Rizhi who can actively analyze the case and do not rely on hitting the board as the main method of solving the case.

There is no place to train criminal investigation officials in this era. Even the "Tang Law Commentary" has just been compiled. This is one of the earliest written laws in East Asia. Even the laws have just been formed, so officials are still in the stage of exploring their own explorations when solving cases.

Of course, there are not a shortage of officials who successfully solved one or two cases, and they even solved it very beautifully. However, there are very few officials who can analyze each case and roughly restore the situation at the time of the incident. Anyway, Peng Ji has been an official for most of his life, and he has never seen any of them.
