Chapter Seventy-Eight: Cross-examination

The arrest of Wang Cao was easily accomplished. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

Wang Cao went back to Wang's house and soon returned to the small courtyard in the back street of the Hou Mansion. He handed the things to Moguang and gave him some silver, thinking that things should not be difficult. The Moguang kid didn't have much guts, so after listening to his threats, he gave in, and then he just had to wait for the opportunity. Wang Cao thought that as long as he pushed more, he could always force Mo Guang to do it as soon as possible. It's just a matter of throwing some medicinal powder into a pot of tea, and then sending the tea to the Seifukan. As long as Zhao Mo is killed, what does it matter if others will be implicated? As for how Mo Guang will get out afterwards - he has not thought about it at all. The medicinal powder he prepared in his hand was two servings, one of which was prepared for Moguang. When Moguang finished his work and came to this small courtyard to resume his life, he gave Moguang the tea to drink, and he could pat his ass and leave.

He rented this small compound under a false name, and he was very careful to enter and exit, so that no one would know who he was. After this matter was done, he didn't have to go back to the Wang family, he directly took a large amount of money from the head of the family, went to the Tongzhou wharf, got on the boat prepared by the head of the family, and went south along the canal to the land of gold dust of the six dynasties in Jinling, and hid for two years. When he returns to the capital two years later, who else will know that he has something to do with the pot of tea in the Qingfeng Pavilion?

Who knew that when he was imagining the good life he would live after arriving in Jiangnan in the small courtyard, the Qin family's subordinates broke into the door and restrained him. He wanted to sacrifice his identity as a member of the Wang family, but he saw his cousin's grandmother Yao and Yao's son Qin Jian walking into the courtyard. Behind them, there was also the ink light that was tied up with five flowers. Wang Cao was stunned.

Yao walked into the room with a gloomy face and sat down on the right seat. Qin Jian sat on the chair where she was starting. Yulan and Yulian came with Yao's family, got orders in advance, and searched the house directly after entering the house. After a while, they found some things, in addition to the change of clothes and silver taels and silver tickets that Wang Cao had brought with him, as well as a small paper bag, which was also wrapped in the kind of fishy and choking powder.

Yao's frowning glanced at the medicinal powder, then turned his gaze away, Yulan hurriedly wrapped the medicinal powder carefully, and put it far away, saving Yao's and Qin Jian's smoke. Then Yao picked up the silver tickets again and sneered: "Three thousand taels of silver? ”

Wang Cao suppressed his weakness and forced himself to say: "What is my cousin going to do? Why did you bring someone to break into my residence at night and arrest me without saying anything? This is not the etiquette that relatives should have!"

Yao glanced at him contemptuously: "Who do you think you are? There is also a face to say that it is my relative?!" She is the daughter of the Yao family, the granddaughter of the Wang family, her grandfather is the old servant of the emperor who is deeply favored by the emperor, and her father is from a family. Her husband is the eldest son of the Marquis of Chengen, the rightful heir of the Marquis of Chengen, the emperor's concubine, and the cousin of His Royal Highness the Prince of the East Palace.

Who is Wang Cao? It's just an inconspicuous side child of the Wang clan, who lives by running errands for the Wang family, and is half master and half servant, and she is embarrassed to call her cousin?!

Since the Yao family knew what Wang Cao ordered Moguang to do, he had no good impression of him at all, and he was extremely disgusted in his heart. If it was usual, she might have to look at the Wang family, and she would regard Wang Cao as a relative. Now, it's good not to trample people to death! If he hadn't been bold, how could she have fallen into such an embarrassing situation!

Wang Cao was so excited by Yao's words that his face was flushed, and his face was full of humiliation. Yao ignored it, and only took off his chin and dotted the ink light: "Say, what did this bastard tell you to do?

Mo Guang was already frightened, how dare he lie again? He poured out everything he knew like pouring beans under Wang Cao's gaze as if he was about to kill someone, and cried again: "Grandma, brother, the little one knows that it is wrong! The little one is also forced." Cao Siye said that if the little one didn't do what he told him, he would sell the small family and sell it to the salt factory to do hard labor, and the small one was really a last resort. Fourth Master Cao said that this is all the order of Master Wang, and the little one can't listen to it......"

"You are talking nonsense!" Wang Cao hated in his heart, and glared at Mo Guang fiercely, "You don't talk nonsense here! Why did I ask you to do such a thing? Don't just throw dirty water on my head!" he turned to Yao, "Cousin, don't believe this kid's nonsense." Who am I? Who is the eldest master of our Wang family? How could he do such a thing?!"

Yao sneered: "If it weren't for the paper bag found in your house, which contained the same poison powder as the paper bag on his body, maybe I would have been fooled by your words." Now it's a no-brainer! Tell me honestly, why are you making waves in my house? Why are you harming Zhao Mo's life?!"

Wang Cao pursed his lips and refused to speak. The purpose of the Wang family is naturally clear, but this kind of thing cannot be said in public. Otherwise, the rumor leaked and reached the ears of the seventh aunt, but it would be a disaster.

Seeing his stiff mouth, Yao sneered again: "Okay, since you don't want to say it, then I'll send you back to the Wang family." Seeing Wang Cao's expression relaxed, she spoke again, "Give it to my grandfather, tell him everything, and ask him to make the decision, and get your family out of the clan and out of the house! With my grandfather's prestige in the clan, this must not be a difficult matter." Anyway, you are such a vicious and shameless person, and if you drive out of the family early, you will save yourself from causing trouble in the future and affecting the clansmen!"

Wang Cao was shocked. He was not afraid to go back to the Wang family, because he believed that Master Wang would not embarrass him. But if he falls into the hands of the second master Wang, it will be another matter. Even if the second master Wang will not go against the eldest master Wang, but the Yao family is his only descendant of the bloodline, and he has always been favored, and the Yao family has opened his mouth, will the second master Wang disappoint his beloved granddaughter for such an ordinary clansman as him? And the second master Wang has opened his mouth, will the eldest master Wang protect him? He is a member of the Wang family, and he knows that the glory and wealth of the Wang family today are all from the second master Wang......

Wang Cao gritted his teeth, knowing that he couldn't hide it from the Yao family anymore. He did this all under orders, and for the benefit of the royal family. As the granddaughter of the Wang family, Yao's has no reason to stand on the side of outsiders. So he made up his mind and said to Yao: "Cousin, slow down, I'm willing to tell the truth." But...... I can only tell you alone, everyone else should avoid it. This is an extremely confidential matter that cannot be divulged out. ”

Yao frowned and gave Yulan a look, and Yulan ordered someone to take Moguang down, and the others also retreated, and then Yulian walked out of the door, closed the two doors, and stayed there.

There are still Yao, Qin Jian, Yulan, and Wang Cao, who has not been loosened, in the house.

Wang Cao was a little dissatisfied: "Cousin, I'm talking about you alone! You don't have to keep the girl, right? Your son is still a child, he doesn't understand, it's useless to stay, and you have to beware of him not knowing the height of the sky and telling the truth!"

Qin Jian's face sank.

Yao Shi was also not very happy: "Do you like to talk about it, who do you think you are?!"

Wang Cao changed his posture with a smile, from the original kneeling posture to sitting cross-legged, and sat on the ground with a grin, as if he didn't take Yao's words seriously: "Cousin, I'm serious." It's a matter of the Wang family's secrets, do you really want so many people to hear it?"

Yao hesitated when he heard this, and then glanced at Yulan again. Magnolia also retreated. But Qin Jian remained motionless.

He said to Yao: "Mother, don't be coaxed by him. Even if he is a child of the Wang family, he is also a foreign man. There's no reason to let him be in the same room as you, and there's no reason for a third person to accompany you. What secrets does he know about the Wang family? He is just a distant clansman who helps the Wang family's grandfathers run errands. If the Wang family really has something important and needs to be done in our family, my great-grandfather should also come to find his mother first. ”

Yao suddenly realized and glared at Wang Cao: "Are you fooling me?" Qin Jian added: "There is no need to send him back to the Wang family so much, send him directly to Shuntian Mansion." If he has a lawsuit and is in prison, the Wang clan will naturally expel him, and he doesn't have to bother his great-grandfather. ”

Wang Cao was shocked, looked at Qin Jian, and saw that he was looking at him with a sneering face, condescending, with a look of contempt. He was ashamed, angry and anxious in his heart, knowing that he had no room for maneuver, so he had to be deflated and tell the truth: "Zhao Mo's kid is the eldest son of the seventh aunt. The head of the family said, this kid can't stay, he will block the way of our seventh aunt's grandmother's son!"

This is a matter of no beginning or end, and it took a while for Yao and Qin Jian to react.

The seventh aunt and grandmother of the Wang family is the one who married at the end of last year, and the one who married was none other than Zhao Shuo, the eldest son of the Liao Wangfu. If it weren't for the fact that the third aunt and grandmother of the Wang family married the prince of Jin, the prince of Jin would have done something bad, and even the original good plan of the Wang family would have failed, and the seventh aunt and grandmother would not have accommodated such a family matter. Because Zhao Shuo is a continuation of the string, there has already been a yuan match in front of him, but he died of illness. And this Yuan mate gave birth to an eldest son, and there was also a concubine given by Princess Liao, who gave birth to a concubine. The seventh aunt and grandmother not only wanted to be a stepmother when she got married, but also ranked third after giving birth to a son, which was extremely aggrieved! If it weren't for the future of the Wang family, the Wang family would be reluctant to ask such a precious girl to fill the house!

Since Zhao Mo is Zhao Shuo's eldest son, it is not difficult to understand that Master Wang ordered Wang Cao to secretly harm him. I heard that Zhao Shuo's concubine has died, and when the eldest son of this Yuan match is also dead, isn't the son of the seventh aunt and grandmother the heir in the future? That Zhao Shuo is a recent clan celebrity, and it is rumored that the saint admires him very much, and it is very likely that he will succeed him as the crown prince!

But this answer made Yao and Qin Jian look at each other. Yao couldn't help but say, "Can you do it? It's just a child." Even if you really want to...... There's no need to be in such a hurry, right? Seventh cousin hasn't given birth to a son yet!"

Wang Cao said: "Originally, I wasn't in a hurry, but this kid was restless, and he actually ran away in Datong! Originally, the eldest master had already bought off the people of the Wen family, so he just waited for this kid to be locked up for two years, and slowly became sick and died, so that he could explain to the seventh aunt." But who knew that he ran away, and after being caught, he fled again, and his whereabouts have been unknown since then. If someone hadn't told us that he was hiding in the Cheng'en Marquis's mansion, our family wouldn't have known that he had gone to Beijing! The third master of your mother-in-law's family has already been sealed as a marquis, and he has entered the palace again, if he tells the emperor about this kid, what can our family do? For the future of the Wang family, for the sake of the seventh aunt and grandmother, this kid can't not die!" )
