The Small Canteen Of Dali Temple

The Small Canteen Of Dali Temple Chapter 31: Nan Gua Bing (4)

Yan San, Yushi Zhongcheng, had always given everyone a good impression before the accident, no matter his appearance or conversation, he was gentle and polite.

If it wasn’t for this incident, they couldn’t have known that this person has such a side.

“According to Madam Yan, Yan San didn’t show these things before getting married. Marriage, parents’ orders, and matchmaker’s words, she saw his gentle and polite appearance at the time, thinking about how to treat each other like a guest in the future should not be difficult.” Liu Yuan said, “Not long after they got married, Yan San revealed his true nature.”

“The first to suffer was a maidservant who had been with Lady Yan for many years. Lady Yan treated her like a younger sister. This maidservant had been a childhood sweetheart with a young servant in the household. Lady Yan intended to let her marry and start a family after she reached the age of Ji. However, before Lady Yan even went out for a short time, the maidservant got into trouble. She was a strong-willed girl and, in her anger and shame, she collided with a pillar on the spot, resulting in her death once the effects of the intoxication wore off,” Liu Yuan recounted. “Lady Yan was enraged by this incident and had a fierce argument with Yan San. It even escalated to the point where they were considering legal separation and reporting it to the authorities.”

Indeed, divorce was not an option for Lady Yan. Her family felt that they couldn’t afford such a disgrace and forbade Lady Yan from seeking a divorce. As for reporting the matter to the authorities, that would only bring trouble. If Lady Yan reported her own husband, not only would she become a wife with a criminal record, but it would also implicate her family, which was even more unacceptable to them. The situation left Lady Yan in a difficult and trapped position, unable to take any drastic actions without facing severe consequences.

“After what happened to this girl, Yan San was a little scared at first, so he went to Lady Yan’s natal house and knelt down to admit his mistake. After all, Lady Yan’s father and brother were also officials. Yan San had just entered the official position at that time. If Lady Yan’s father and brother intervened Yan San’s official career may have come to an end at that time.” Liu Yuan couldn’t help shaking his head when he said this, “But Lady Yan’s father and brother felt that it was a matter of face, so they didn’t intervene. With such acquiescence and connivance, Yan San also understood. Since then, he no longer was afraid, and become more and more rampant.”

The villain will never restrain himself because of the tolerance of the other party, and will only intensify.

“Lady Yan couldn’t see it. She once argued with him, but she got slapped by him instead. Since then, the two of them simply just put on a show in front of others, and they each take care of their own affairs.” Liu Yuan said, “But in the end, he is an official, because of his reputation, it is not acceptable to go out with those clients to prostitutes in a fair manner, so he will recruit some prostitutes in private. Later on, even the secret prostitutes stopped coming, but people continued to frequent Yan San’s place as usual. Lady Yan admitted that she didn’t dare to interfere in Yan San’s affairs, but she also suspected that those people might not be respectable young women and might have been deceived or coerced through shady means.”

So far, it is clear what kind of person Yan San was.

“Those younger ones, their families refuse to admit that their children could be involved in such activities. They all claim that their children are well-behaved, honest, and quiet, insisting that we must have made a mistake! However, I found many revealing books hidden in the rooms of these so-called ‘well-behaved children’,” Liu Yuan continued. When his eyes met Lin Fei’s, he cleared his throat and said, “These books are all about fights between demons! And not just ordinary demon fights, the illustrations at the beginning were shocking enough, but as I flipped through the pages…uh, I must say, I was truly amazed and taken aback by what I saw!”

What a group of well-behaved, honest, and quiet children!

Liu Yuan couldn’t help but sigh.

However, now that the connection between these people had been found, things will be easier to handle.

“These people are all involved in such matters, and, likely, they have also faced consequences as a result. For example, they might have abducted respectable young women, and their families could seek revenge,” Liu Yuan added.

Lin Fei gave a “hmm” and agreed with Liu Yuan’s guessing direction, and then said to Liu Yuan, “Speak to the jailers and let them prepare. I want to interrogate Li Yuan and his servant Shuangxi.”

Liu Yuan: “…Yes.”

In fact, from the current point of view, the whole case had nothing to do with Li Yuan and Shuangxi, the hot-tempered Pingxi Xiao Junwang, and he didn’t know why Lin Shaoqing must arrest Li Yuan and Shuangxi.

However, if Lin Shaoqing wants to interrogate, let’s do it!

No matter how powerful the Prince’s Mansion of Pingxi County is, wouldn’t Lin Shaoqing be unable to stop him if he wanted to arrest someone?

…

After a day, he finally saw Lin Fei again. Li Yuan, who was hiccupping on the prison bed, jumped up immediately when he saw him and cursed: “Lin Fei, you have a white face and a dark heart…

” Let’s go!” Lin Fei waved his hand and said to Zhao You behind him.

In response, Zhao You raised his foot and stepped forward, holding Li Yuan and Shuangxi one by one, like chickens, and then followed Lin Fei to the interrogation cell.

The guards behind him were amazed at such a crisp and unsloppy movement.

As soon as Lin Shaoqing gave an order, he dared to go up to pick up people directly, and he didn’t care if he would offend Xiao Junwang of Pinxi, probably only Officer Zhao was like this!

Li Yuan, who was held by Zhao You, reacted after he struggled and cursed: “Let go of me! Believe it or not, I went out and asked someone to beat you with a sack? Let go…”

” Xiao Junwang talk carefully, according to the laws of our country, you will be imprisoned if you beat someone without a reason.” Liu Yuan on the side said sarcasticaly remarked, and reminded Li Yuan, “Our prison in Dali Temple is very spacious. Whenever the Xiao Junwang wants to come back, we will welcome you.”

Li Yuan was so angry that he almost didn’t hold back his anger. But before he could do anything, he was carried into the interrogation cell by Zhao You, and then tied to a stake under Lin Fei’s signal.

Even Li Yuan was helpless, and Shuangxi naturally couldn’t escape.

The master and the servant were tied to wooden stakes tightly.

Ignoring Li Yuan’s cursing, Lin Fei turned his head, looked at Shuangxi, whose face was pale with fright, and asked, “That day, why did you and Li Yuan set foot on Yan San’s private boat?”

With such cold eyes looking at him, Shuangxi trembled, and without even thinking about it, he surrendered on the spot: “Xiao… we were fishing on the Weishui River with the young master, when Yan San’s private boat suddenly bumped into us. The collision directly shocked the fish that the young master caught. The young master angrily threw the fishing rod on the spot and boarded the boat with the little one…”

“What happened after boarding the boat?” Lin Fei asked him, “You two were found lying in the cabin, when did you pass out? Did you bump into anyone after getting on Yan San’s private boat?”

Shuangxi shook his head and said, “I didn’t see anyone. After the young master and I got on the deck, we went into the cabin and searched around, but found no one, and then the private boat with no one at the helm collided with the boat next to it. The young master and I accidentally hit the bulkhead. We were so dizzy that we passed out.” Liu Yuan’s expression changed when he heard this.

This Pingxi Xiao Junwang very domineering and arrogant, even though he was captured by the previous people, he refused to say anything. Therefore, during the previous investigation, they had never obtained the testimony of the two men.

Because when they were found, both of them were in a coma. Therefore, they had always guessed that they had used drugs, but since they did not find any traces of drugs in the cabin, they guessed that it was drugs scattered in the air.

But it wasn’t until today’s interrogation, when Shuangxi opened his mouth, that they knew that the two of them were not fainted by drugs, but knocked unconscious.

So… drugs were not used on them?

The person who drowned people in the bathtub might be able to directly incapacitate people like frail women, but… if no drugs were used, and people were drowned directly in the bathtub, why did the few people who died show no signs of being forcibly suppressed and pressed into the water?
Not only were there no three of them before, even Yan San was not there.

This was strange!
