Chapter 393 The Fish Banquet (Sixth)
Although the moon has jumped into the sky, even in the capital such as Chang'an City, there are no pedestrians on many streets.
But the area around Zhaixing Tower in Furong Garden is still brightly lit, and the shops facing the street are closed. The crowds of people in Furong Garden and Zhaixing Tower are surging, as if they are stuck, and they still maintain the "hustle and bustle" at the time of the incident.
Of course, this "hustle and bustle" was a last resort. The officers and soldiers holding long swords stood up in a state of sternness. When the escort of Princess Liyang was cut, the pedestrians watching the fun knew that these officers and soldiers were not "talking skills" and were just talking, so they did not dare to say much. They cooperated with the officials of Dali Temple to record their confessions.
For most people, what they see is the same. People who walk here or enter and exit from Furong Garden opposite, fireworks suddenly set off in Zhaixing Tower, and they instinctively looked here.
Some people focus on watching the fireworks until people fall downstairs to find out; some people focus on watching the fireworks, but they also lucky enough to see the figure on the top floor when the fireworks take off.
"It seemed like a hand stretched out and pushed it, and the figure leaned back and turned out to the Zhaixing Tower, and then..." The pedestrian said this and couldn't help but look at the corpse lying on the ground again. The coroner with the box on the side was all white in his hair. It was obviously an old coroner who had been immersed in this way for many years, but at this time, he was like a novice who had just entered this way, while checking the corpse while trembling.
It is said that there are countless cases in Dali Temple that have been dealing with throughout the year. Wu Bucai may have seen more corpses than people. It should have been no longer surprising when facing the scene of falling from the building. But... at this time, facing Zhao Mengzhuo's body, Wu Bucai's hand still couldn't help but tremble. He grabbed the knife several times before he grabbed the knife in the box.
"Go slower." Bai Zhu walked to Wu Bucai and squatted down, patted Wu Bucai on the shoulder, looked at the body of Zhao Mengzhuo in front of him, subconsciously lowered his eyes and turned to the side, unable to bear to look at it more.
After calming down, he said in a stern voice, "It is the key to find out the truth about the adult falling from the building."
If the body of Zhao Mengzhuo falling from the building is physical evidence, the pedestrians on the street are witnesses.
After hearing Liu Yuan's question about the pedestrians who saw this scene, Lin Fei walked aside with A Bing and Tangyuan, looking at Wen Mingtang with a compassionate expression on his face, and said, "Listen to A Bing, are you there at the scene?"
Wen Mingtang nodded and said as he said something that had been slapped in his belly countless times: "The fireworks took off, illuminating the top floor of Zhaixing Tower. I saw that a hand was indeed pushed towards Lord Zhao, and then he saw Lord Zhao leaning back and turning out the Zhaixing Tower."
Wen Mingtang saw this scene, and it is not allowed to be faked.
But the sudden light of fireworks was on the other side. Although it was bright, it was not on the side where the group was. They saw the movements on the top floor from the ground and the people were all in shadows. Besides, the group was wearing dark Confucian robes, with their figures and hair. Therefore, looking at the top of the building from the ground, except for seeing a few shadows in the shadows and the movements at that moment, Zhao Mengzhuo was unable to see clearly what others were doing.
But although they couldn't see clearly, the actions of those people who had flipped Zhao Mengzhuo's body before were really a bit overwhelming.
Looking at the people standing aside and wiping tears and crying "Brother Zhao", Tang Yuan pursed her lips and said in a voice that only a few people could hear: "Cat cries rats!"
There was more than Tangyuan who had this idea. When those people were rumbling the bodies, no one stopped them. When the people from Dali Temple who were brought to ask questions with officers and soldiers, the pedestrians who were watching at the beginning were "unbiased" and told them all about the scene they saw.
"Here, not long after Lord Zhao fell down the stairs and fell to the ground, the group of people walked out of Zhaixing Tower. The adults must also know that the guy in Zhaixing Tower was always very fierce and did not let me get close to him, but he seemed to be unable to see the corpses of them. He stopped the officer named Zhao who wanted to stop them from circling the corpses, so he was very strong."
In front of everyone, even if you want to help, there are so many eyes on the street, most of them are scared by the officers and soldiers brought by Dali Temple.
Therefore, it is impossible to hide such things, so it is better to tell them all the things you see.
After hearing this, Lin Fei nodded, then turned to look at the old servant who was wiping tears aside.
Although these people have a lot to do with Zhaixinglou, who did Zhao Mengzhuo meet today? He has been cautious and careful in his years of being a Dali Temple Minister, so he will never forget to talk to the people around him.
The old servant who drove to pick up Zhao Mengzhuo today said in tears: "I am here to make friends today. Before going out, I specifically told my wife to keep food because she just had a few snacks of tea and had a few snacks. I guess she would come back for dinner."
While speaking, the old servant looked at Mrs. Zhao, who was surrounded by maids and mothers in the crowd, and could not even hold back her tears. Mr. Zhao's children have not been in Chang'an City these days and have gone out to kiss her. At this time, they still didn't know the news.
Listening to the old servant saying "I want to come back for dinner", Wen Mingtang and others not far away felt sad. Thinking of Lao Yuan who had an accident not long ago, I felt even more uncomfortable.
That bowl of rice will never be eaten!
As for which friends were there for the tea party, the old servant looked at the people who were also wiping tears, gritted his teeth, and was quite stance to sacrifice his life and even testify, and said, "It's Lord Chang and the others."
Lin Fei nodded, walked to a group of pedestrians who were specially assigned to each other by the officers, and asked, "Before and after the incident, you were at the back door of Zhaixing Tower, but you didn't see anyone in and out?"
Several pedestrians nodded and said, "It's true that the street behind Zhaixing Tower is also bustling and tight. Many shop owners who didn't have much business at the time saw it."
So, in this way... it is certain that if Zhao Mengzhuo's death was not an accident, the people who pushed him down to Zhaixing Tower must have been the ones who were still in Zhaixing Tower after the incident.
Unfortunately, Zhaixing Tower was wrapped up by these adults today. Apart from the staff in the building, there were only a few guests. Moreover, these people did not bring their personal servants when they were talking. Otherwise, Zhao Mengzhuo, the old servant, would not have been away from the scene.
After Linfayette deliberately "excluded" all the possibilities next to him, he turned around and walked towards the few people wiping their tears on the side.
All of this group of people are quite old, and the youngest one is no less than two years younger than Zhao Mengzhuo.
This group of people is not only old, but also has his official rank. Among them, they are yelling that the surname "Brother Zhao" is Chang, who is now the Minister of Works. The Chang family from which he was born is also old and the Lin family. Lin Fei has seen these people more than once at the Duke of Jingguo's mansion.
Once the case was handled, it would be difficult for my grandfather to deal with it! Lin Fei sighed, but his feet were not slow at all. In a blink of an eye, he walked to several people.
