"All the human and physical evidence?" Lu Li's eyebrows raised slightly, "Handed over to the government office?" β
"What," Shen Wansha threw out a 'you are too naΓ―ve' look, "Pang said that he was afraid of being chased and killed by Mrs. Hou, and asked the lord of the government to try the case immediately, when the adult will try it, and when will she take out the evidence." β
actually dared to talk to the yamen about the conditions, this Pang Zi is also bold enough. However, the matter involves the death of the first emperor and the marquis, and the yamen cannot take it seriously. Lu Li thought for a while and asked, "Has the government filed a case?" β
"The people in the Yamen are all human spirits, and this case is filed, and it is just that Ponzi's words are true; In case she talks nonsense, Mrs. Hou passes through the court, the matter spreads in an uproar, and Yu's reputation is damaged, can the Zhang family spare them? Shen Wansha took a lazy sip of tea, "After discussing with these officials, they decided not to file a case for the time being, but to visit the Hou Mansion to investigate first, and ask about what happened before Cui Luo's death." β
Then, based on the content of the question, it was decided whether or not to file the case.
Lu Li was clear: "The time can be set?" β
"Tomorrow." Shen Wansha looked at Lu Li, his eyes lit up, "You have to go, right?" Let's do it together! β
Lu Li nodded. Whether it's for the case or for personal relationships, he has to take a look.
β¦β¦
After pondering for a moment, Lu Li thought of another question. No matter how bad the Hou Mansion is, the safety is still guaranteed, especially the identity of the Zhang widow is more sensitive, and she is very strict with the door, how did Pang run out? And she was still injured and should have difficulty moving.
He asked this question, Shen Wansha smiled even more, and his voice was elongated with a deep meaning: Because someone helped.
The one who helped was still the master in the house who was not too low-ranking - Cui Luoshu's eldest son Cui Jie.
To say that this Wu'an Hou Cuiluo is not a good thing, Jin Yu is ruined on the outside, he looks like a dog, he can fool people, but he is not a humble son.
The poor are rich, even with the help of the inheritance family Cui surnamed Changzhi, there are still bad problems in their bones, such as: beautiful and sexy.
Cui Luo didn't read much when he was a child, his life was very hard, every time he dreamed of dreams, it was nothing more than the fragrant and beautiful things in the storyteller's mouth, and every time he was bitter against fate, he was ruthless in his heart: When Lao Tzu is rich, he must sleep all over the world!
Lu Li almost squirted tea and laughed: "How do you know? β
"Of course it's gossip from others......" Shen Wansha glared at Lu Li, "Don't interrupt!" β
"Okay, young master, please speakβ"
Shen Wansha began to speak again.
Zhang Sanniang is a famous family in Shangjing, and her family history is not as long as the previous five surnames and Qiwang, but she is not a small household in Shangjing. Her person is gentle and dignified, kind and shy, and the people who chase her can line up from the gate of Shangjing to Zhending, and they don't know what they ate wrong, Zhang Sanniang actually fell in love with Cui Luo.
When Cui Luo pursued Zhang Sanniang, he had already learned a lot from the master of the Cui family in Shangjing, and pretending was enough. The young man looks good, he will blush when he sees Zhang Sanniang, and he will moderately express his enthusiasm, he is also very single-minded, he likes Zhang Sanniang and only revolves around her alone, even if there is a group of beauties sitting beside him, he doesn't even look at it.
Shen Wansha commented: "This is deliberately holding back!" Cui Luo is not a willow at all, he just wanted to marry a good wife at that time, the Zhang family is the flower of Beijing, after the famous family, he has great ability to marry her Fang Xian! β
The young master was so excited that he even slapped the table with a fan, Lu Li learned the lesson of the last time and did not bother.
Shen Wansha said that he was very satisfied and continued to speak.
It is not difficult to say that Cui Luo plays a play, there is a big defense between men and women, and he and the Zhang family have not had a few chances to meet, so they come and go, and this thing is done.
Zhang's marriage to Cui Luo, Cui Luo has been sè for a long time, and he is also in harmony with Zhang's, and the two of them have lived a good life with their eyebrows and concubines. After the freshness passed, Cui Luo saw that the Hou Mansion was there; The major events in life - the daughter-in-law has also been solved, and it has been solved very well; For other things, with the help of the talented Yan An, his life is simply wonderful, and there is nothing to worry about......
Yes, then do it according to your own heart.
He began to sleep with the maid in the house. The maid was sleeping, and his eyes turned to the outside of the house, the girl in the building, the prostitute in the dark, the daughter-in-law of others, and the girl of a good family...... But as long as others don't mean to refuse, he doesn't pick, he can sleep with anyone, and if he has that heart, as long as he is not in the skin and meat business, he will also be by his side. However, he also knew that there were three, six, nine and so on, and the girls of good families were included in the house, and the widows who had broken down or the old ones were put in a house......
The Zhang family must be unhappy, but Cui Luo has a reason: there are three unfilial pieties, and no queen is the greatest, you have been in the house for two years, and you haven't even laid an egg, he can't be sorry for his ancestors.
Of course, the original words may not be said, but the meaning is correct, it is so hurtful.
For ancient women, childlessness was an unspeakable pain. Although the Zhang family is still young, she may not be able to give birth, but she can't stop Cui Luo from continuing her blood and bones, and all men in the world can accept Xiao, she can't say anything that is not allowed.
That's how Cui Jie was born.
Cui Jie's biological mother is a maid who has a lot of sex, her status is not high, her mind is still heavy, she hid it when she was pregnant, and it was not revealed until she couldn't hide her stomach for more than five months, and she didn't take care of her nutrition much, and then her son was born, and she didn't live anymore, and she died of blood.
The Zhang family was angry at that time and was unwilling to raise this concubine. In addition, everyone raises children from large households and does not all get the mother's own mother, please ask a few nurses, dial a few maids, and give grace and power, and the housemother asks from time to time, as long as the rules at home are heavy, no one dares to think carefully, the child itself is not too bad, and can generally be fed.
At that time, Ponzi had already entered the mansion. In order to hook Cui Luo, she went to take care of the child herself from time to time, so that he could see her good ......
So Cui Jie grew up slowly, although his qualifications were not very good, but he had some feelings for Ponzi.
No matter how bad the identity of the eldest son is, he also occupies a 'long' word, Cui Luo still cares about Cui Jie, Cui Jie is not bad for money, he made some connections earlier and sent Pang out of the house, and he really did it.
"Mrs. Hou didn't dispose of Cui Jie?"
Shen Wansha sighed, with a look of regret that "little friend, you still don't know about the deep mansion compound", "You have money and connections, and you can shirk and not admit what you have done, even if Mrs. Hou guesses that it is him, the person who helps him grit his teeth and does not spit out, no one can do it, right?" This is not a sin that must be put to death, but at most it is to be beaten up and sold to the sky...... As long as the silver is enough, it means nothing. β
Lu Li said that he understands that money can make ghosts grind, and there are too many things in the world that can be promised benefits. Cui Jie didn't admit his mistake, Zhang couldn't ask for evidence, so he couldn't punish him openly, if he really wanted to treat it, let's come in a roundabout way.
β¦β¦
Shen Wansha soaked in Lu Li's place for an afternoon, until the sun was about to set in the west and the temperature outside had cooled, so he said goodbye and returned home. Before leaving, I made an appointment, and tomorrow I will go to Wu'an Houli to stare at the people of the yamen to ask about the case.
When Zhao Shu came back at night, Lu Li learned the matter with him and asked him if he had time and if he wanted to go together.
Zhao Zhu thought that there was nothing to do on the second day, kissed Lu Li's forehead, and agreed.
Lu Li saw that he was a little depressed, pushed him away and asked what was wrong.
Zhao Shu was very moved, and his daughter-in-law could tell whether he was happy or unhappy? He didn't hide it, saying that the black-clothed masked man who attacked Lu Li and Shen Wansha on Chaoyang Street that day died that day.
There were a lot of people in that group that day, if it weren't for Zhao Zhu and He Lianyu arriving in time, Lu Li and Shen Wansha would have suffered a big loss. Because he wanted to protect civilians, Lu Li's subordinates couldn't catch too many men in black, and in the end they had to live a mouthful.
In the end, he only said that they were indeed here to kidnap Lu Li, and asked him why, but he didn't answer, only said that it was an order from above, and asked him who the top was, so he shut up and didn't say anything about the punishment.
Tonight, this living mouth died, and it died very suddenly, Zhao Shu was very dissatisfied, and he asked for anything!
However, there is one point, he has a tattoo on his shoulder, and the tattoo style is very special, which Zhao Zhu saw when he was at the border, which is unique to the Tangut people......
Lu Li touched Zhao Zhu's head: At least we know that he is an alien, that is, a foreigner, maybe it has something to do with the treasure map.
Zhao Zhu was very comfortable to touch, and soon returned and suppressed Lu Lihe crab.
β¦β¦
On the second day, Lu Li and Zhao Zhu packed up their preparations, and before they set off to the Wu'an Hou Mansion, the people from the government came to invite them.
Lu Li looked at the messenger and kowtowed respectfully to Zhao Zhu, saying that the case had not been filed, and the government had only sent a pusher surnamed Li, because when Pang Zi called out the matter in the Hou Mansion a few days ago, King Ping was on the scene, so he specially invited him to witness.
Of course, the prince and nobles are busy, and if they don't have time, the people below don't dare to say anything.
Lu Li understood that this group of people was still afraid of making a big fuss and couldn't suppress it, and wanted to invite the Buddha to come over. If they can be invited, everything will come according to the king's wishes, and no matter what the result is, they will not have to bear the responsibility; You can't invite them over, it's good that the etiquette is reasonable, and King Ping won't hold a grudge against them.
In fact, Zhao Zhu is really not a petty person, people outside have demonized him, as if if he is not satisfied, he will go crazy and kill people, raw|gnaw|people|bones|drink|people|blood. Originally, it was discussed that he was going to go, and Lu Li guessed that even if Zhao Zhu knew the careful thoughts of the people below, he would not have any feelings.
Sure enough, Zhao Zhu bowed his head and his face was solemn, "This king will arrive later." β
It's not picky, and it's not embarrassing.
β¦β¦
After the two finished breakfast, changed their clothes, and walked to the door of Wu'an Hou's Mansion, Shen Wansha happened to arrive, and the three of them went in together.
Today, Helian Yu is even in the future, probably too busy, or maybe Shen Wansha didn't talk to anyone at all? Lu Li occasionally sympathizes with Helian Yu, the young master is good anywhere, but he doesn't care much about love, he can see that Helian Yu can't wait to stick to Shen Wansha, and he doesn't have enough for twelve hours a day, but the young master will feel annoyed......
As soon as they arrived, business began.
The main hall of the Hou Mansion has been set up in the form of a small ascending hall, Li Tuiguan respectfully invited Zhao Zhu to sit on the throne, he himself sat behind the case to ask for a confession, Zhang sat down, and Pang knelt in the hall. As soon as it was ready, Li Tuiguan was shocked and asked Pang Zi, "You sue Mrs. Zhang for killing her husband, can there be evidence!" β
Pang Shi glared at Zhang fiercely and knelt on the ground, "Yes!" For a whole day before and after the death of the Hou Ye, the martial law in the house was strict, no one could move, without Zhang's orders, who dared to go out immediately, until the Cui family lady in Shangjing came over and had a secret conversation with the Zhang family for an hour, and the house began to hang out a white curtain for funeral, and the Hou Ye was dead, isn't it suspicious! β
"This is ...... alone," Cui Tuiguan's face was cold, "but it doesn't mean anything." β
"Of course it's not all!" Pang Zi gasped a few times and said, "Hou Ye's body has just been buried, and the Zhang family immediately sold Xiao Nan, the personal maid, Xiao Nan is very loyal, and has not made any mistakes, why did the Zhang family sell her?" I didn't know it at the time, but when I saw Xiao Nan again later, I asked carefully, and she just said that before Hou Ye died, the Zhang family made her buy a lot of arsenic! β
"Xiao Nan said the name of the pharmacy, I asked someone, the pharmacy is a hundred years old, the reputation is very good, although in the past many years, many records have not been lost, very detailed. I asked him to look through the old arsenic and frost trading booklets, and said the approximate time, and the guy found it, Xiao Nan bought a full five dollars of arsenic at that time! β
"Five-dollar arsenic|frost, don't talk about rats, the living are enough to poison a group! Arsenic|Frost, Xiao Nan, Zhang's, Hou Ye's death, it seems that there is no connection, but as long as you think about it, everyone knows that something is wrong! β
Pang Zi gritted his teeth, and said every word loudly, "I know very well that the matter is very important, once I go out, I will definitely die, and it is impossible for the Zhang family to spare me, so I quietly hid Xiao Nan, if the adults don't believe me, just Xuan Xiao Nan stepped forward now!" β
The hall was instantly silent.
Shen Wansha smacked his tongue and whispered to Lu Li: "It's really something......
Lu Li looked at Mrs. Zhang, who was sitting at the head of the house. Zhang's back is straight from beginning to end, her eyebrows are solemn, the sun falls on her face through the pane, the corners of her lips are tightly pursed, her chin is delicate, and the whole person is sitting there, it is a painting.
The years seem to pity her, this figure in the sun, there is the beauty of a girl, and there is also a girl who does not have it, the quiet and calm that has experienced the precipitation of time, and the two compartments are kneaded together, there is an amazing charm.
Lu Li felt that she didn't seem to be nervous at all, but just looked at this farce coldly, calm and detached.
β¦β¦
Ponzi said that there were witnesses, of course, he had to go through the court and ask them. As soon as Li Tuiguan gave the order, an errand immediately asked for Ponzi's address and went to find someone.
Xiao Nan came quickly. She had ordinary eyebrows and eyes, was wearing coarse cloth clothes, and she didn't seem to be doing well, so as soon as she came in, she knelt down and kowtowed to Li Tuiguan.
Li Tuiguan patted the shocked wood, "Pang Zi sued Mrs. Hou's husband Zhang, saying that before Marquis Cui died, you went to the pharmacy to buy five yuan of arsenic cream on the order of your wife, but is this so?" β
Xiao Nan trembled, "Yes." β
"Did Mrs. Hou say what this arsenic cream is used for?"
"Say it's a drug rat ......"
"Have you ever seen Madame Hou kill people with arsenic|frost?"
"I didn't ...... There is no ......"
"Even if you don't, why do you say that Mrs. Hou killed her husband with Pang Zi!"
Xiao Nan knocked his head to the ground, "The slave maid didn't see the lady kill her husband with her own eyes, but this time to buy arsenic and frost, there is no way to say that the slave and maid will be resold...... The slave is not a fool, so she guesses that there is a problem. The slave didn't want to tell others, but she met Aunt Pang a few years ago, and Aunt Pang had a good heart, and when she saw that the slave and maid were not doing well, she took silver to help...... Aunt Pang used to be the most loved by the Hou Ye, and the friendship between the two was the deepest, so the slave and maid said these words to the aunt......"
After listening to this, Li Tuiguan pondered for a moment, then turned his head and asked Zhang, "What did Madame say?" β
Zhang glanced at Xiao Nan, "This girl did something wrong and misbehaved at that time, I drove her away, she hated me." β
In other words, the maid Xiaonan was dissatisfied with Zhang's, looked at people with colored glasses, and deliberately climbed dirt.
Pang Shi pointed at Zhang's and screamed, "You just can't see the concubine!" Xiao Nan and Jie'er are on good terms, a maid, and Jie'er is, but you deliberately broke up and resold Xiao Nan, and blamed others for hate, shouldn't others hate you! A girl's family is the most important thing in life! β
After speaking, he felt that his words were a little biased, and Pang Zi hurriedly pulled back, "Fortunately, Xiao Nan has a pure character, and he does not have the same cold heart as you, and he never speaks with his conscience, and he will never maliciously climb dirt!" β
Mother Du couldn't get used to Pang Zide the most, seeing that Li Tuiguan didn't speak, and King Ping and his party didn't mean to interject, she stood up and said: "Auntie finally said the right thing, you have to speak with your conscience!" β
She stared straight at Xiao Nan, "You like the eldest young master, do you know if the eldest young master looks down on you?" Are you beautiful or something special? You use your head to think clearly, because you are your wife's personal maid, and you are useful to others, so people take a fancy to you! You want to betray the Lord, we can govern, but Mrs. is kind-hearted, I don't want a girl in the prime of life to fall into it like this, although you are not beautiful, but you are also self-motivated, you went to someone else's house as a maid, do things like before, there are always people who appreciate you, no matter how bad it is, you can also have a good life if you marry the people of Pingtou, Mrs. is so hard-working, you are not grateful, but you come to beat a rake, what a good girl! β
"Mother Du is really a good mouth, what she said is like the truth-"
"That's it!" He was shocked and asked Zhang, "Can you call Cui Jie to come over for questioning?" β
Zhang's jaw head, "Yes." β
So Cui Jie came over. Cui Jie's appearance is not bad, but his eyes are too flexible, which gives a bad impression.
Li Tuiguan pointed to Xiao Nan and asked Cui Jie if he knew him, and Cui Jie replied: "Yes." β
asked again if he was on good terms with the maid, and if he saw Zhang's poisoning and murder of his husband, his eyes wandered for a moment, "I don't think Xiao Nan is a person of bad character, and I was reckless in what happened back then, I really like it, but I can tell my mother directly, but it's not right for me to come forward...... Did the lady kill her husband or kill her husband...... I didn't see it, and I didn't dare to answer casually. β
As soon as his voice fell, Pang Zi scolded directly, "You are soft and unassailable, wait for Mrs. to bully you to death!" β
β¦β¦
Shen Wansha looked at it, his eyebrows furrowed, and he leaned over to lower his voice, "This evidence...... Doesn't seem too hard either? And aren't they a bit of a run? β
Lu Li nodded, looked at Zhang's figure, and sighed slightly, "Yes, but Mrs. Yu is very disadvantageous when Pang is so troublesome." β
There is not much evidence, but the atmosphere has been stirred up, and now there is no ironclad evidence, but Xiao Nan can be moved by Ponzi's words, Cui Jie seems to be impartial and does not dare to speak casually, but in fact, he falls to Ponzi's side...... Ponzi can get help from both of them, and there may be other help.
In today's scene, Pang Zi has obviously been planning for a long time, and there will be no shortage of preparations, as long as he asks one after another, maybe someone will 'see Mrs. Hou poisoned with his own eyes', but he was afraid at the time and didn't dare to say it......
Lu Li was a little anxious, thinking about whether to stand up and say something, but was held down by Zhao Zhu.
"Huh?" He turned his head to look at Zhao Zhu.
Zhao Shu shook his head at him, "Let's watch first." β
Lu Li followed his gaze to look at Zhang, and saw that Zhang's was still as always, calm and safe, not nervous or worried at all. She couldn't have seen through Ponzi's movements, but she was still ......
Are you prepared?
Lu Li seriously recalled that Zhang was a smart person, smart and assertive, but the image shown in front of people was always gentle and dignified, and he didn't care about some things, so he had the illusion that she was being bullied.
In ancient times, a widow could support the huge Marquis Mansion alone, plan a good future for her son, and make the people in the capital not underestimate and bully...... It's amazing.
Lu Li understood Zhao Zhu's hidden meaning, exhaled slowly, and quieted down.
β¦β¦
Because the government has not filed a case, Li Tuiguan did not come to the hall officially, so the main hall is not a forbidden place, and no one is allowed to come. The subordinates did not dare to trespass, but the masters dared to come.
Lu Li saw Cui Zhi coming.
He walked very eagerly, and pulled the master to feast on peace, and the two of them stopped in front of the east pane, and did not show their heads. Probably still can't see the inside, Cui Zhi paused, pulled Yan An and hurriedly changed his direction, and walked along the back door to the small compartment at the back of the main hall.
The location is very coincidental, and Lu Li can see the two of them very clearly.
Shen Wansha tugged at Lu Li's sleeve and winked at him with a smile: "They can't see us, let's see them clearly!" β
Cui Zhi was very anxious, "What should I do?" My mother she ......."
Yan An looked along the pane, and just saw Zhang's silhouette sitting upright, his eyes stunned.
After a while, he gently said to Cui Zhi: "Gentleman Shendu, you speak carefully." β
Cui Zhi let out a long breath, "What the master said is that I'm in a hurry. β
Yan An looked at the people in the main hall through the shallow window screen, "The sky net is magnificent, negligent but not leaky, things in the world, as long as they have been done, there will be traces." There are no flawless lies, what Madame has not done, and how outsiders frame them, there will be loopholes...... They can't bully Madame. β
"This banquet master has confidence in his wife......" Shen Wansha was muttering, and caught a glimpse of a figure out of the corner of his eye, "Little oak, look, there's also a maid over there!" β
