Chapter 125: Conjecture
readx;?“ My sister went, and the slave family was also very sad, what's the matter with you, an old woman, who spews blood without evidence? ”
The widow named Yuru looked sarcastic, insincere, and did not show sadness at all, on the contrary, she raised her eyebrows defiantly, meaning, what can you do to me?
The old lady was red-eyed, trying to struggle out of the control of the family, and the widow desperately, the person who came to testify saw this, and couldn't help sighing, good people don't live long, the scourge is left for a thousand years, and the two of them appeared, obviously to stir up the situation.

"Since you are the family members of the deceased, go with you to the yamen."
As soon as the rain stopped, the sky was still dark, and the pretense was very professional, and people covered half of the body with straw mats, and there was no useful information left at the scene, it looked like an ordinary poisoning case, the difficulty was that the suspect and the victim did not know each other, had never had any intersection, and did not have the so-called motive for killing.
No grievances, no hatred, full of food? And the bun still took the initiative to ask for it, but they would not release it until it was confirmed that the bun was not poisonous.
Along the way, the eldest lady cried and cried, counting the ten major crimes of the widow, and Mo Xiaohe bowed her head, she had a premonition that the lady died strangely, maybe the murderer was not a widow and a scumbag who came to the door to the son-in-law Ma Yuanwai.
Usually, people will show panic when they do something wrong, especially when Shengdou Xiaomin sees the catch, it's good not to tremble, for fear of causing trouble, and the pretty widow is not afraid at all, and bluntly said that she hopes that the Wei Governor will deal with it impartially and give her a clean reputation.
"The slave family is a hard-working person, and he became a new widow not long after he got married, but he is not cheap, the slave family is the second room in the house that is dignified and accepted into the door, famous and shared, and the bewitching and cheap goods outside!"
The widow bluntly said that not many people in the second room will like the main room, who wants to be pressed on the head? The backyard is a woman's world, and whether you can be favored by a man or not depends on your ability.
The man is greedy for colors, likes to have many moves, can change tricks, a dead fish on the bed, looks at it and loses his appetite, as the main room, he can't hold it up, and he is thrown to Zhuangzi, blame her?
Over the years, the family's business has become bigger and bigger, and the horse has money outside, and he is unwilling to be instructed because of his identity as a son-in-law.
But if a smart person finds that something is wrong, he should secretly transfer the family property, instead of quietly and stupidly putting hope on giving birth to a son.
Mo Xiaohe was silent, in this era when the junior is reasonable and legitimate, in order to survive better, he can only think more about himself, the widow villain's face is very annoying, but the reason is the same.
If that lady can control the economic power and reconcile with the horsemen, maybe she will develop a second spring long ago, and besides, if the woman is not conceived for a long time, it must be a woman's problem?
Finally arrived at the yamen, Yu Yu quickly stepped forward and explained the ins and outs in detail, the old lady whimpered and added, the master took out a pen and paper to record the entire process of the poisoning case.
The deceased has been identified as a result of poisoning, but due to the limited conditions at the scene of the crime, the source of the poison cannot be determined and further testing is required.
"Little friend of the Mo family, get up."
The husband and wife were handed over, and after Wei Zhifu saw it, he nodded at Mo Xiaohe, telling her not to worry, although he has a deep friendship with the Mo family, but he is not good at releasing water too much, and the procedures that should be taken have to be followed.
Wei Zhifu is an old man of nearly sixty years old, well-maintained, his hair is half gray, his face is serious, and there are several deep furrows between his eyebrows, and he likes to frown when he is young.
Mo Xiaohe has seen a brief history of the Mo family, there is such a paragraph, the queen mother and Wei Zixian, the daughter of Wei Zhifu, were close friends in the boudoir, and later helped Wei Zixian a lot and rescued her from the line of death.
Wei Zhifu is grateful, his political achievements over the years can be transferred to Kyoto as a first- and second-class officer, but because he wants to repay his kindness and has feelings for Luzhou, he stays here. Luzhou has beautiful landscapes and abundant products, and has become one of the richest cities in Dayue.
The case will still be heard, and it is scheduled to open tomorrow, and Mo Xiaohe and Gu Zheng will be arrested and taken to the cell.
I thought that the cell was a filthy place full of rats and cockroaches, and the situation in front of her was much better than she imagined.
Wei Zhifu did not let the husband and wife separate, and after the two entered the door, they quickly closed the wooden fence, and after two quarters of an hour, they sent another food box.
Osmanthus duck, squirrel fish, and two fried vegetables, rice, steamed buns, water wine, enough for two people to enjoy, the bedding in the room is also replaced, the interior setting is similar to the inn, there is an independent clean room, the bed is hung with a tent, tables, chairs and benches, teapots and bowls on the table, oil lamps, incense, everything is available.
"Husband, why did you say that this lady was poisoned in the process of eating steamed buns?"
The food tasted good, Mo Xiaohe had a big appetite, turned grief and anger into motivation, and ate more than half of it, if there was a prefect of Wei, she could go through the back door, and she felt a little relieved.
The gold-lettered signboard of the Mo family is really easy to use, at least let her suffer a lot less, and she can sleep peacefully tonight.
"I feel that the murderer is not a horseman, nor is he a pretty widow."
Mo Xiaohe analyzed, judging from the fact that Ma Yuan can quietly buy people's hearts and seek the Liu family's property, this person is extremely selfish and ambitious, but he is meticulous in his thinking, and it can be said that he achieves his goal quietly and quietly.
He already has the money, whether the main house is dead or alive has little to do with him, otherwise he can't drive people to the countryside, and he has no reason to kill.
And the pretty widow is a smart person, and can see clearly, all her previous attention was on Ma Yuanwai, and now she is more than eight months pregnant, and the due date is not in a few days, and it is impossible to kill people at this time.
The ancients were very superstitious, and it was considered unlucky to have a funeral at home, and no matter whether she gave birth to a boy or a girl, she had a child and a status in the house.
Mrs. Zhengfu, in name only, no one will care about a transparent person's opinion, the lady who died of poisoning was driven to Zhuangzi for several months, but no one has ever stood up for her, which shows that the people in the house are indifferent.
"That's right."
From the analysis of human nature and people's hearts, it is quite in place, Gu Zheng applauded his own lady, and their ideas coincided.
So, who is the murderer? It seems that Ma Yuanwai and the pretty widow were not particularly surprised by the death of Mrs. Masamu, and certainly not surprised.
"Husband, do you think the eldest lady may not?"
From another point of view, the eldest lady was bought, poisoned the buns, let the husband and wife carry the black pot, blame others, and let herself get away with it, her image of a loyal old slave, no one will suspect her.
Then, the problem came again, the old lady didn't seem to believe that the stranger was the murderer, and kept saying that they were all crusading against the horseman and the widow, and she was very upset with their wife.
Wei Zhifu said that he would open a court to ask the case, give the deceased an explanation, let her rest in the heavens, and find out the Liu family's property, if it shows that the son-in-law has embezzled the family property, he will take coercive measures to recover it for the Liu family.
"Lady, there is another possibility, that lady committed suicide, or she had poison on her body and poisoned herself by mistake."
Gu Zheng packed up the food box, handed it to the official outside, went to the clean room to get a basin of water, and wiped his face for his wife.
It was raining heavily at that time, and the two of them stood outside for a while, their bodies were soaked, and Mo Xiaohe's face had traces of rain, mixed with sweat, and turned into a little flower cat.
Their burden was in the carriage, and they begged the official messenger for help, perhaps the prefect Wei took care of it, and the official messenger quickly met the request of the two, and brought two large buckets of hot water for the husband and wife to wash.
"Suicide? She is pregnant, and she is preparing to sharpen her knife Huo Huo to return home to counterattack, why can't she think about it? ”
Besides, it's good to swallow poison directly by committing suicide, who cares if you're hungry or not, that lady happily accepted the meat buns, and didn't dislike the cold, and ate them directly. As for the conjecture behind it, he hid poison on his body and poisoned himself by mistake, although it is ridiculous, Mo Xiaohe agrees.
This main room has a simple social relationship, she doesn't go out in the house all day, and the contact is nothing more than the people in the house, she was thrown to Zhuangzi for a few months, tasted the warmth and coldness of the world, and had resentment in her heart, which should also be.
She hurried back at this juncture, trying to kill the widow and kill her body, but she accidentally missed and killed herself.
"Husband, isn't that lady also pregnant, so why should she have trouble with the widow?"
Guessing and guessing, Mo Xiaohe was confused, who was the murderer, how did she know, it was something that should be handed over to Wei Zhifu to worry about, she only had to wait for a result.
One night, neither husband nor wife slept well, and on the second day, they got up early, and the breakfast was meat buns and porridge brought by the official.
Mo Xiaohe looked at the meat buns, twitched the corners of her mouth tangledly, and finally decided not to get along with her stomach, so she ate three in a row, leaving the remaining five for her husband Gu Zheng.
When the hall was opened, the entrance of the yamen was surrounded by a sea of people, Luzhou has always been peaceful, suddenly there was a murder, the people sharpened their heads, pricked up their ears at the door to watch the excitement, there were people who knew the inside story, and they spit and spitted for the dead lady.
Wei Zhifu was very serious, and his attitude was very different from yesterday's, he looked at Gu Zheng, nodded, and gave a signal.
At this time, Mo Xiaohe was relieved, there should be nothing wrong with them, she is now eager to know the results of the autopsy.
"Master, the grass people really don't know that Mrs. came back from Zhuangzi, and someone came to the house to report that something happened to her, so I hurriedly went out."
The horseman knelt on the ground, took out his handkerchief, wiped the sweat on his neck, the sun was shining early in the morning, the yamen was not ventilated, he was nervous, the sweat droplets were lying on the ground, and after a while, the marble floor around him was wet for a while.
The pretty widow rolled her eyes, "People are not harmed by slaves. ”
The experienced Lang Zhong took the pulse, saying that the widow got a man in one fell swoop, and what she gave birth to was the eldest son, a merchant family, but there was no saying that the eldest son inherited the family business, and it was a certainty, she didn't need to harm anyone, but she was still very puzzled, her master had not had sex with that person for at least a year, why did her stomach get up, is it a wild seed that steals life?
"You just stole people, a few months ago, the master went to Zhuangzi!"
The eldest lady is loyal, her wife is gone, and the deceased is the greatest, so she can't let the pretty widow slander her, and she doesn't care if she is in the yamen, so she immediately goes back.
The pretty widow squinted, a few months ago, she was less than three months old, and she could not have sex, she glanced at the horseman, and there was a look of grievance in her eyes.
"Just passing by, by the way, I drank too much that day......"
Ma Yuanwai remembered that he had taken a fancy to a maid in Zhuangzi, who knows how he finally rolled into the bed of the yellow-faced woman, the two were husband and wife, and he didn't think much about it afterwards, and left after waking up. "Presumptuous, this is the public court!"
Wei Zhifu knocked on the hall wood, and the people were gone, and these people were still struggling with when to have sex and what place to use the public court? Thinking of the autopsy results, Governor Wei sighed and made a gesture to him.
"The deceased was not pregnant, she was terminally ill, and the bulge in her belly was not a child."
What Mo Xiaohe didn't know was that after the queen mother wrote the codex, the autopsy method was advanced, and she was no longer the ninth-rate who was discriminated against back then.
"No, it can't be!"
The most fierce reaction was the eldest lady, she saw that her wife's belly was getting bigger and bigger, and she also looked for someone to see it, according to the time, she was at least more than five months pregnant, which coincided with the appearance time of the surname Ma, and the child must be his!
"No impossible! Bring a person's card! ”
When Governor Wei saw that there was a quick probe at the door, he knew that someone had brought it.
A little old man came in at the door, and sighed after kneeling, and his wife was depressed and sick, and his days were short, he was just a barefoot doctor of the people, helpless.
When Madame learned about it, she behaved very calmly, and when she learned that her belly was getting bigger and bigger, she begged him for one thing, and asked him to help lie together, and the reward was a silver bracelet.
