Chapter 656: Doubtful Case
Even Lin Anjia was scolded by the scolding, and everyone was silent, not daring to open their mouths to intercede for Cheng Jinghao. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
Only Lei's, when there was a sound of "popping" in the courtyard, he screamed miserably, ignored his in-laws and ran out, eager to replace him.
An Pinghou shook her head, they are all good sons she is used to!
"It's all gone!" The Tu family is gone, what are they all doing together? An Pinghou instructed, and then walked towards the study with Cheng Jingtong, what should happen next, they still need to discuss.
In any case, he will definitely not let Tu Manfen and Cheng Jinghao get along.
Using Tu Manfen to pinch the Tu family, the prince explained it quite clearly. If you mess up the errand, you may lose the prince's favor and cannot be reused. This is tantamount to killing An Pinghou, who wants to borrow the prince to turn over.
An Pinghou came for less than half an hour, and left in a hurry, leaving everyone in the room looking at each other.
"What are you doing in a daze?" Lin Anjia waved her hand tiredly, "Didn't you hear Master Hou's order to disperse?" eldest daughter-in-law, you handle the doctor's affairs well, and would rather give him more silver than make him make trouble, let alone let him hate us." ”
"Daughter-in-law saved. Gao Shi saluted and retired.
In the middle of the courtyard, Cheng Jinghao was pressed on the bench of Shi Jiafa and was beaten and screamed. Since An Pinghou has confessed to the heavy responsibility, these subordinates dare not be lazy. Lei Shi jumped to his feet in a hurry, but he couldn't stop it.
His voice grew lower and lower, and red blood soaked through his pants, soaking a large chunk of his robe. Lei Shi only cried breathlessly, "My son, why is your life so bitter?"
finally finished the board, and Cheng Jinghao was already weak. He is not the kind of person who is hard-hearted, and he has no kung fu to support himself, and this beating is more painful than being waterboarded by Liu Qiran.
Lei hurriedly called the servant to lift the door panel and carried him back to his courtyard to clean his wounds. He also sent someone to quickly ask for a bone-setting doctor, applied medicine, and went to the ancestral hall at night. What my father-in-law said, it was always necessary to do it.
……
The Tu family's carriage left the workshop and stopped at a sparsely populated alley.
Li said: "Manzhen, you don't need to send it, we will go back." It's better for you to go back to your own house, Manfen will have to raise her for a few days, could it be that you have been staying in the Zhongguo Mansion? ”
Tu Manzhen pouted and was about to speak, but Liu Qiran was overjoyed and said, "Mother-in-law is very right. Manzhen is free to come and go in our house, as long as she reports to her mother. It's a big deal that when I go to the upper office, I will take you to the Zhongguo Mansion and pick you up when I go to the office. ”
Li smiled and said, "Look at you, how good the prince is to you, you just listen to your mother, how about it?" Tu Manzhen reluctantly agreed.
"Mother-in-law, if the Cheng family doesn't sign the document of reconciliation, just come to me. Thinking that he could sleep with his wife in his arms tonight, Liu Qiran was in a good mood and took care of everything.
Li nodded and said, "The Tu family will handle it." If the Marquis of Anping does not recognize it, it is not too late to use other means. ”
The two said goodbye to Lin Shili again, changed carriages, and separated. The Lin family and the Li family returned to the Tu family, and they still had to inform Tu Shanchang about the matter of separation.
Liu Qiran knew that Tu Manzhen cared about her sister, so he took the initiative to send her to the Zhongguo Mansion and said, "You are so relieved to comfort your aunt, don't go to your heart." Isn't it just marrying the wrong person, and if you leave, you're a good man!"
Tu Manzhen glanced at him and said, "Who are you who you are?" Seeing that he looked at himself with blank eyes, he smiled and said, "Don't worry, I will say goodbye to my cousin Wanzhen." ”
"That's pretty much it. Seeing Xu Yiren, you remember to tell her, I will come to see the second brother of the martial arts family tomorrow. After that, Liu Qiran said happily: "Youzheng, I will come to pick you up, I will first order the house to make the slippery quail you like to eat, and have a meal at night." ”
Seeing that Tu Manzhen responded, he was overjoyed.
Watching him walk away, Tu Manzhen couldn't help but laugh "fluttering", "Idiot!" Then he took the maid to Zhiyuanju.
……
In the front yard of the Zhongguo Mansion, Wu Zhengxiang sat in the study, looking at the file in his hand.
It was an old case that he transferred to the Criminal Department under the pretext of his position. The tragedy of Yuxi Township Post Station three years ago is impressively listed.
The file said that on that day, when the Qin family firm escorted the grain here, a total of dozens of people, together with the post men and men at the post station, were all buried in the fire, and none of them were spared.
What is strange is that Yuxi Township belongs to Luyang County, and after the incident, Xie County Ling was about to order someone to check the scene of the fire, but he temporarily changed his mind and went to the state city. Unexpectedly, on the way back, he got drunk and fell off his horse, and died.
According to the record in the file, it was later sent by the state city to investigate the scene of the tragedy. It was found that the post station had been burned to the ground, and many bones and remains were found, but the grain of the Qin family and the cart of grain were missing. If they are all burned, there should be traces.
However, there was no trace of the murderer at the scene, and in view of the fact that it was the season of food shortage after the flood, the case was defined as a crime committed by hungry people in order to grab food, and the case was hastily closed.
But what does all this have to do with the prince?
The prince, Yuxi Township, and Xie County Order, between these three, there must be a line that strings them together. However, King Qi has the most crucial evidence to make him use this as his final hole card.
Wu Zhengxiang took out a map, found out the approximate location of Yuxi Township on the map, and his eyes lit up.
Three years ago, the crown prince was almost deposed. It was Guan Jinghuan who stood up to protect him, and recommended him to make meritorious service and go to the place where the Yellow River burst to provide disaster relief.
The three fingers of his right hand tapped lightly on the table, and he vaguely remembered that during that disaster relief, the food purchased by the household department was accompanied by the prince. Could it be that there is a problem with the grain?
Just as he was thinking, there was a soft knock in front of the open door, and Wu Sheng was wearing Mingguang armor and standing with a smile.
After receiving the words he sent someone, Wu Sheng didn't even take off his armor and stomach, and hurried back to the house. He took a two-hour leave and came back to discuss the matter.
Seeing that he had arrived, Wu Zhengxiang got up and saluted: "Big brother." "Then he sent someone to invite the loyal prince to come.
After the three of them gathered together and laid out his henchmen around the study, Wu Zhengxiang showed them the file at hand, pointed out the location of the Yuxi Township Post Station, and said the guess in his heart.
Wu Sheng was shocked, raised his head suddenly, and asked, "Second brother is saying that there is a problem with the grain escorted by the prince." In order to ensure the smooth running of the errand, he did not hesitate to kill people and steal food?" in just a few sentences, but the truth at that time was revealed.
Looking into his eyes, Wu Zhengxiang nodded slowly.
"This ...... How is this possible. Wu Sheng couldn't believe it.
Wu Lie's face was calm, and he sighed: "It's about the battle for the throne, and the lives of dozens of people, what's impossible about this?"
