Chapter 80: The Storm Rises
Zhao Shangshu's eyes rolled slightly, his heart had made up his mind, and his upright body knelt down on the ground again, crying: "Ask King Ning to be the master of the old minister!"
Qing Tianze's eyes narrowed slightly, and he said indifferently: "Lord Shangshu is serious, but I don't know what Lord Shangshu wants this king to do?"
Zhao Weitang pointed at Xuanyuan Hao and Xuanyuan Ning, and said fiercely: "The old minister begs the prince to hand over the two murderers to the old minister!"
Qing Tianze nodded slightly: "Oh, yes, just now Zhao Ping said to this king that Lord Shangshu's sister-in-law, Zhao Dagongzi, was killed and lost his life. I didn't expect that Lord Shangshu had just returned to Qingjing after his vacation, and such a thing happened in less than two days. ”
Qing Tianze's hand moved slightly, and Qing Leng immediately stepped forward to help Zhao Shangshu up, and when he stood firm, he let go and retreated behind Qing Tianze.
Qing Tianze paused slightly, and then said, "Presumably, what Lord Shangshu said is also this matter, right?"
Speaking of his son who had just died, Zhao Shangshu burst into tears: "Back to His Royal Highness King Ning, what the old minister said is exactly this, the old minister only has this one son-in-law, who was originally going to inherit the Zhao family business in the future, but I didn't expect that now he would let the old man send the white-haired man to the black-haired man, and ask His Royal Highness to be the master of the old minister and severely punish the murderer!"
Qing Tianze nodded slightly: "It is appropriate to severely punish the murderer, but Lord Shangshu also saw it, the two people you are talking about are murderers, since they can eat at the same table with this king, then they must be very good friends of this king, Lord Shangshu said that this king's friend is a murderer, and evidence needs to be presented, otherwise, how can this king hand over people to Lord Shangshu?"
Zhao Shangshu's tearful face flashed with a glimmer of essence: "His Royal Highness King Yuning, the old minister has a witness, and I also ask the prince to hand over the two to the old minister." ”
Qing Tianze looked at Zhao Shangshu, and his tone was indifferent: "Then please ask Lord Shangshu to bring the witness, after all, the murderer you accuse is a good friend of this king and a guest of this king, since you want this king to hand them over to you, then Lord Shangshu should also let this king see the testimony of the witnesses, right?"
Zhao Shangshu turned his head to look at Zhao Ping, Zhao Ping waved his hand back, and someone went out to bring people up.
Zhao Shangshu looked at Qing Tianze: "Please also ask the prince to speak, and after listening to the testimony, hand over these two people to the old minister." ”
Qing Tianze picked up the tea on the table and sighed lightly: "Lord Shangshu, let's wait for this king to listen to the testimony." ”
Zhao Shangshu's mouth moved, and he wanted to say something, but after all, he swallowed it and didn't speak.
A moment later, the man below brought a middle-aged man up.
Qing Tianze looked at the middle-aged man for a long time before asking, "You are the witness in the murder case of Lord Shangshu's sister-in-law?"
The middle-aged man glanced at Zhao Ping, saw that Zhao Ping nodded almost invisibly, and smiled with a ruffian face, before he replied to Qing Tianze: "Yes." ”
Qing Tianze slightly hooked the corners of his mouth: "Since you are a witness, then tell me what you saw before, the process of how Lord Shangshu's sister-in-law was killed." ”
The middle-aged man subconsciously glanced at Zhao Ping before saying: "Yes, the villain was originally a small vendor selling noodles on this street, and in the afternoon he heard the commotion on the street in front of him, so he stepped forward to take a look, thinking that the business was not good anyway, so he went to join in the fun, but I didn't expect that the excitement turned out to be someone fighting, and it was a girl in red who was fighting with a man who looked like a young master, and injured the young master, and then the girl in red left, but it didn't take long for the young master to die." ”
Qing Tianze looked at the middle-aged man, and his tone was indifferent: "Did you see the girl in red and the young master fighting?
The middle-aged man paused, looked up at Zhao Ping again, and then lowered his head and thought for a long time before he muttered: "The villain didn't see it with his own eyes, but the young master didn't go far after leaving and fell to the ground and died." ”
Qing Tianze nodded slightly: "So you saw the girl in red and Shangshu's son fighting, and it stopped after a few fights, and then Shangshu's son left, but he didn't go far before he fell to the ground and died, so, do you think Shangshu's son was killed by the girl in red?"
The middle-aged man looked at Qing Tianze's expressionless face, shrank slightly, and nodded, "Yes." ”
The middle-aged man's lowered eyes rolled for a while, who the hell is this? Sitting in a wheelchair, he still has such a strong momentum, and Lord Shangshu and the chief guard on the side are actually very respectful to him.
"So, how did you see that girl in red fighting with that Shangshu boy?"
"I see...... See...... The middle-aged man with the red ...... wanted to say that he saw how the woman in red beat the young master, but when he looked up, he saw Qing Tianze's eyes looking at him, his face was expressionless, and his eyes were as deep as a cold pool, as if he was still bubbling with a faint cold.
The middle-aged man's originally passionate tone paused, and there was also fear in his eyes when he looked at Qing Tianze.
"What did you see, don't you say it quickly!" Zhao Shangshu couldn't help but roar angrily as he looked at the middle-aged man's spitting appearance.
Zhao Weitang himself actually didn't know how his son died, three months ago, because his mother died, according to the ancestral rites of Qingchuan, it was necessary to keep filial piety for three months without involving the court, and the Qingdi also asked him to keep filial piety for three months according to the ancestral rites, so he took the family and took his mother's tablet back to the ancestral house of the clan, and enshrined his mother's tablet in the ancestral hall, and three months later, that is, he just returned to Qingjing yesterday.
And Zhao Jingang because he is the only sister-in-law of Shangshufu, he grew up in pampering since he was a child, and his grandmother doted on him, so he developed a child's disease, and he had nothing to do all day long, he would only spend time drinking everywhere, and take the family of Shangshufu to make trouble everywhere, and when something happened, as long as he moved out of the name of Shangshufu, he would turn big things into small things, and small things would be turned into small things.
And these three months in the ancestral house, without the prosperity of Qingjing, Zhao Jingang couldn't stand it for a long time, and finally returned to Qingjing, it was late when he first arrived in Qingjing yesterday, and he was a little tired from the elders, so he also settled down for one night.
This morning, I settled down and sorted out my things, and finally ran out in the afternoon, but I didn't expect this time to come out, it was the point of no return.
Zhao Shangshu lost his old mother and only son-in-law in three months, which was an extraordinary blow to him.
When he was told that his son had died in the street, he was shocked, and then a wave of anger rose in his heart, and he thought that some bastard had played such a big joke on him, and he could not help but scold the messenger until he finally brought him to the scene of the incident.
He looked at his only sister-in-law, who was not angry, lying on the cold ground covered in blood, and he finally believed this fact.
