Chapter 359: Da Ming Supernatural Incident

“…… A rich girl from a slave family, she also used to be pampered. It was only later that the father died of sin, and the family fell into the middle of the road, and the slave fell into the dust. But today's things are not only the cause of the father, but the cause of death, but because of another person......"

Gently breaking free from Su Mo's embrace, Miao Yun's face was a little ashamed, and she raised her hand to tidy up her hair and sideburns, and then slowly began to speak.

There is nothing new in the story, and it can even be said to be very old-fashioned and bloody. But in this bloody cliché, it is a little weird and mysterious.

Miao Yun's surname is Wu, a native of Huzhou. Most people in Huzhou make a living by raising silkworms, and the same is true of the Wu family. It happened in the ninth year of Hongji. That year, the sericulture industry in Huzhou became more and more developed, and eventually led to a surplus of silkworms, so that the mulberry leaves for feeding silkworms could not be supplied.

As a large local sericulture farmer, Wu Lao also faces the same dilemma. So in desperation, he let people kill some of the silkworms, and then sent people to the nearby county government to buy mulberry leaves. Thinking that one in and one out like this may be able to make the remaining silkworms live.

But what I didn't expect was that this purchase was still unsuccessful. Not only are there not enough mulberry leaves in the local area, but several nearby county governments are also in the same situation, their own supply is insufficient, and where is the balance to sell to others?

A few members of the Wu family had to return empty-handed. It's just that I'm worried in my heart, but it's not good to explain to the master when I go back this time.

On this return trip, several people crossed the river in a boat, and when the boat reached the center of the river, a big fish suddenly popped out of the water, and the one that was so good that it did not die fell into the boat and was caught by several family members.

The family was overjoyed, thinking that it was such an auspicious omen, and going back to offer it to the lord would definitely make the lord happy, and perhaps he would be spared a punishment.

So the fish was placed in the bilge and began to return. However, when he was about to go ashore, he suddenly encountered a boat patrol by the catcher of the Inspection Division. Seeing that the boat was not big, and there was no cargo on it, but the draft was quite deep, he immediately suspected that there was something strange in it, so he stopped and inspected it.

This investigation revealed a terrifying scene. Several subordinates of the Wu family repeatedly claimed that there was no prohibited cargo, and in addition to the people on the boat, only a big fish caught in the river was placed under the cabin of the boat.

But when the catcher opened the cabin, there was no big fish anywhere?

Everyone was terrified. The arrester did not dare to slack off, and escorted everyone and the entire ship back to the county government for interrogation.

In this era, there is no civility to say, and if you don't say a few words, you will immediately be punished and served. Under Miki, several family members died early, so they had to confess and admit the crime of killing and dismembering the body.

When asked about the other parts of the corpse, where did several people confess it? In desperation, they had to identify it indiscriminately, and one of them actually said that the burial place was in the backyard of the Wu family. But it was because he had seen his cousin young master bury something in the backyard one night.

The county magistrate immediately sent someone to rush into the Wu family, and under the fingers of the family, dug up the backyard, but actually dug up a male corpse, and the corpse was indeed missing a leg. Pair the legs in the cabin, and it's a perfect fit.

This time, the evidence is conclusive, and the county order is even if someone takes the Wu family. Old man Wu shouted grievances, claiming that there were only some silkworm corpses buried there, and no one had ever been killed, and that his cousin had handled it himself.

His cousin is not an ordinary person, but a Jinshi of Hongzhi for three years, surnamed Yuan Zonggao, and now it is the long history of Xingwangfu. Since childhood, he and his daughter have been childhood sweethearts, and they are in-laws who are married to the belly.

It is precisely because of this that Yuan Zonggao went home to save his relatives this year, and he had lived in his own house for a while, and when he happened to encounter this matter, he took the initiative to undertake this matter. How could such a person commit such a sin for no reason?

Old Man Wu insisted that someone must have framed him, and he did not admit his guilt when he was killed. When the county magistrate heard about Yuan Zonggao's coming, he didn't dare to be arbitrary. Even if he sent someone to Xingwangfu to find Yuan Zonggao to collect evidence, he didn't know that Yuan Zonggao flatly denied it, but only said that in order to please the future old Taishan, he had seconded two entourages to Old Man Wu for use. But what exactly was done is not clear.

The county magistrate asked the two entourages that day to ask questions, but they were told that the two had resigned after they returned, and now they don't know where they went.

At this moment, the case has completely become a dead witness. Yuan Zonggao picked himself clearly, and he couldn't come up with evidence to prove Old Man Wu's innocence, so the result could only be that Old Man Wu bear the crime.

That's not all, because Old Man Wu kept saying that there were only some silkworm corpses buried here at that time, and once this word came out, it immediately caused a lot of waves in Huzhou.

Most of the people in Huzhou live by sericulture, so they have always had the custom of worshipping the "silkworm god". When they heard that Old Man Wu killed silkworms and buried their corpses, and finally turned into a human corpse, they were all shocked, saying that this must be the anger of the silkworm god.

As a result, the whole thing has completely changed, from a simple murder case to a blasphemous event. The public discussion is turbulent, and it is all the calls for the execution of Old Man Wu's family.

By this time, the local county orders were all gone. Originally, it involved the long history of Xingwang's Mansion, which already made him extremely passive. Then Yuan Zonggao didn't have any evidence there, and the case could only fall on Old Man Wu's head. Now coupled with the surging public opinion, it can only push the boat with the current.

As a result, the Wu family was imprisoned, and the main men were all reported to the Criminal Department for beheading, and the women were sent to the Jiaofang Division as prostitutes.

Miao Yun's mother was hit by this blow, fainted immediately, and died within a few days. Miaoyun was left with a weak woman, and in a panic and helplessness, she had to do her best and secretly ask someone to find Yuan Zonggao for help.

At that time, although Miao Yun was grieving, she did not completely lose her mind because of this sudden blow. She vaguely felt that there was something strange about this matter, and if the key to it was definitely related to her fiancé.

It's just that the two have been childhood sweethearts since childhood, and she has always admired this cousin, and she doesn't believe that her cousin will harm her family. The reason why I feel that Yuan Zonggao is the key to it is just thinking that maybe it is the problem of my cousin's two subordinates.

She asked someone to find Yuan Zonggao for help, firstly, because she was the only one to rely on, and secondly, she hoped that her cousin could mobilize people and use the power of the palace to catch the two thieves as soon as possible. As long as those two people are caught, everything will naturally fall into place.

And Yuan Zonggao really lived up to expectations, and when the people invited by Miao Yun found him, Miao Yun had already been beaten into the Teaching Workshop Division. Even if Yuan Zonggao moved the power of the palace, although he couldn't help her get rid of his nationality for a while, he still gave her the greatest protection and a certain amount of freedom.

It's just that at this time, with her identity, it is no longer possible to fulfill the marriage contract as agreed. After all, Yuan Zonggao is a dignified jinshi, and as the king of Xing, if he marries a courtesan, he will not only be ridiculed by the world, but also ruin his good future. Therefore, the best result is that Yuan Zonggao attaches great importance to love and righteousness, and accepts Miaoyun as a concubine.

So far, Miao Yun doesn't blame him. After all, the two have an emotional foundation, as long as Yuan Zonggao treats her well, what kind of status does she have? Even Miao Yun herself, for the sake of Yuan Zonggao's future, will take the initiative to give up that position.

And after Yuan Zonggao helped Miao Yun to get free, he also promised to make efforts to find those two people, and strive to rescue Old Man Wu as soon as possible and return the Wu family to innocence. As a result, Miao Yun was even more grateful. Even after Yuan Zonggao expressed his intention to have sex with her first, she almost couldn't hold it back.

Fortunately, at the last moment, she was a smart woman and tried her best to push him away. and promised that as long as Yuan Zonggao rescued his father, he would hand him over without reservation under the witness of his father.

Yuan Zonggao didn't say anything at the time, although he was a little displeased, he didn't seem too annoyed. It's just that soon, Miao Yun knew that something was wrong.

First, someone came to warn her, telling her to be obedient and do something as she was told. If there is any slackness, or failure to do a good job, then her old father in prison will be taken care of harshly. Old Man Wu is not young, and under such special care, I am afraid that he will die in pain if he can't even wait for the official document of the Criminal Department.

Miao Yun was terrified, and hurriedly went to find Yuan Zonggao again, but Yuan Zonggao suddenly became extremely busy, either to say that he went elsewhere, or that King Xing had other arrangements, and Miao Yun couldn't see anyone at all. In a few days, even the palace will not be able to get close, and it will be driven away as soon as it appears.

At this point, Miao Yun finally came to her senses. Heartbroken, for the safety of his father, he could only honestly obey his orders, play one role after another, and do many immoral things against his will. Because of this, her fame was blazing, and she soon became popular all over Jiangnan. By the time she met Su Mo in Wuqing, she was already the famous No. 1 Oiran.

The moonlight in the forest was dim and uncertain, and Miao Yun spoke faintly, and the voice was empty as if she had lost her soul. Although his face was as calm as death, the hands he held tightly were so hard that his nails sank into the flesh, and blood began to leach.

The girl next to her was already crying, and when she saw that Miaoyun's hand was bleeding, she immediately panicked, and hurriedly took out a handkerchief to help her bandage it. Miao Yun didn't seem to be aware at all, her stiff fingers made it impossible for Yu'er to pull it open, and she couldn't help crying and begging Su Mo for help.

Su Mo sighed, reached out and hugged her again, and kept stroking her back with the other hand, like this again and again, finally let her gradually relax, and then Yu'er helped her bandage it with tears.

"So, my uncle is still in prison now?" Su Mo thought for a while and asked softly.

Miao Yun's body trembled violently, and suddenly tears fell from the size of the bean, but she was speechless for a while.

Next to him, he cried: "The master went, it was cold in the old year, and he couldn't stand it, so he ...... Just ......" Speaking of this, the little girl choked up and couldn't go on.

Su Mo couldn't help frowning slightly, looked at the two girls with some hesitation, opened his mouth a few times, but finally didn't make a sound.

Miao Yun seemed to feel something, and said indifferently: "Do you want to ask, since this is the case, why do slaves still want to be willing to fall and act for the tiger?"

Su Mo was startled and hurriedly shook his head, but Miao Yun smiled sadly, tears slid down in big drops, and choked up: "The slave is the most unfilial daughter in this world, and she can't make the old father be happy before his death, and after the old father dies, the corpse cannot be returned." The slave should have died a long time ago, and there is no redemption for death! Perhaps only when the slave dies can the old father be freed. But...... However, the slave can't let go, can't let go. The slave is not afraid of death, the slave is only afraid that after he dies, there will be no one to bury his father, and the slave is also afraid that after the death, only Yu'er is left alone and uncared for. Slave...... Slave ......"

She choked up and spoke, but she couldn't speak, and it was difficult to continue. Next to her, she cried and threw herself into Miao Yun's arms and hugged her tightly.

The two women hugged each other and cried, like a cuckoo crying blood. There were clouds floating in the sky, covering the half moon again, and the forest was dark for a moment, except for a sad voice.
