Chapter 090: The Murderer
Shen Xi sent Zhao Ji out of the door and thanked Ziyan. Ziyan didn't want to leave, she said: "I have to stay, and when the official mission comes, I will stay to be a witness, and someone will die." ”
"Thank you so much, Aunt Yan. If it weren't for you today, my mother would probably not be able to protect it. Shen Xi really didn't expect this soft and weak purple smoke to have such a big courage. If it were someone else, I am afraid that I would only hide at home, but I should not hear the movement.
Shen Xi didn't know much about Ziyan. There is only one servant girl by her side named Liancui, and she has not seen any relatives come to visit, she only said that her husband is gone, but she also did not say who her husband's surname is, which is a little strange. However, after today's events, Shen Xi has taken a lot less precautions against her, everyone has their own secrets, so why be a villain who explores people's privacy.
It didn't take long for Wang Zhutou to bring people here. He frowned and stared at the face of the white-faced palanquin man on the ground, and asked, "What's going on?" ”
Shen Xi replied: "This is a robber who broke into my house and injured my mother. My dog, as the Savior, bit him to death. ”
Wang Zhutou squatted down, looked at the corpse carefully, and said, "It's true that it was bitten by a dog." What evidence do you have that he is a robber? Looking at his dress, he doesn't look like a robber, but he is a sedan chair driver who does hard work. ”
Shen Xi said: "Aunt Yan, she saw it." ”
Ziyan told everything he had seen and heard this morning.
After hearing this, Wang Zhutou said, "Then I have counted." Even if the dog bit him to death, I had to take the dog back to work. ”
Shen Xi's face immediately hung up, "Why did the head catcher arrest my dog?" It protects the Lord, but you have to take it away. What is the rationale for this? ”
Wang Zhutou sneered, "The dog bit someone to death, whether it is the protector or not." I had to take it with me. ”
Xiao Hei seemed to feel the hostility of Wang Zhutou, and whined at him.
Wang Zhutou was frightened by the big dog and took two steps back. He was a head catcher, how could he bear a dog barking at him, the anger suddenly hit his head, and shouted: "Quick, kill me!" ”
Shen Xi stood in front and said, "Wang catches the head." You're here to investigate the case, how can you kill my dog, even if it starts a lawsuit. I am also a plaintiff. ”
"This vicious dog has bitten people to death, and it will definitely bite people to death in the future, for the safety of Yueting Town, it must be killed." Wang Zhutou screamed fiercely. The catcher behind him also raised his knife and stick. Want to get your hands dirty.
Jiang Haiming came just in time. As soon as he heard that something had happened to Shen Xi's side, he immediately rushed over. When he came to the door, he heard that the king was showing off his might inside, and he was angry in his heart, but he was not angry. He moved into the courtyard, and said slowly: "How can Wang Zhutou be angry and speak viciously to a little girl. It's not that she's the murderer. ”
Wang Zhutou turned around. When he saw that it was Jiang Haiming, he was startled. This Jiang Haiming is the son of a pawn who ranks in Jiuqing. It's hard to mess with. I had heard that he knew the orphans and widows of Shen Lin's family, but he didn't expect this to be true. He smiled and said, "Where, the little girl of the Shen family, how can she be a murderer." ”
"Is there a murderer here?"
Wang Zhutou pointed at the fierce and vicious Xiao Hei, "It bit this palanquin man to death, and it has to correct the law on the spot, so as not to harm others." ”
Hai Ming went over and touched Xiao Hei's head, "It must be just a protector, how can it bite, it is the most sensible dog I have ever seen." This is what I gave to Shen Xi to guard the door, and it can be regarded as my dog. ”
Wang Zhutou saw that the dog and Jiang Haiming were intimate, not like a lie. It's really hard to do now, you can kill the widow of the Shen family's dog, but you can't kill the dog of the pawn's son. He was a well-behaved person, and immediately changed his words: "Jiang Gongzi's dog must be a good dog, how can he bite people indiscriminately." So we took away the robber who had broken into the gatehouse. Disturbing the little girl of the Shen family also disturbed Jiang Gongzi. ”
Wang Zhutou was a neat man, and seeing that Shen Xi was not easy to mess with, he hurriedly asked people to carry the robber's corpse and went back to restore the life of the county commander.
Ziyan is a smart person, and when she saw that there was nothing for her to do here, she took her leave and left.
Haiming sat down with Shen Xi into the house and asked, "What's going on, how come there are robbers breaking into the house?" ”
Shen Xi told Shen Wang what she had told her and repeated it completely.
After listening to this, Haiming said: "Presumably this person came prepared, he must have known that you were going out, so he came to rob your mother." But why did he do it? ”
Shen Xi remembered that day when Wang Ru'an and Zhuang were talking on the street. Zhuang told her that Wang Ru'an wanted to find a mother for his son to teach, but she thought it was strange and did not agree. Could it be that this matter has something to do with Wang Ru'an? Shen Xi told his guess.
Haiming said: "It has something to do with Wang Ru'an, I'm afraid it's not easy to investigate." He is the Earth Emperor of Yueting Town. Moreover, his cousin is Wang Min, the prime minister of the current dynasty, who is above 10,000 people under one person. ”
"No wonder he's so confident." Shen Xi said: "Do I want to sit and wait to die? There must be two things in this matter, this time it didn't work out, I don't know when he will do it next time. It's just that I'm very curious, why did Wang Ruan deal with me. If you just want to find a mother, can't you find someone else? ”
Haiming said: "Wang Ru'an is stubborn, he must get what he wants. My grandfather said that this person is narrow-minded, and he will repay him, and he should stay away. I ask you, do you really want to deal with him? ”
Shen Xi said, "What do you mean by that?" What if I want to deal with him? ”
Haiming smiled but did not speak.
Shen Xi stared at him, frowned slightly, leaned to his ear, and asked softly, "Could it be that you want to kill him?" ”
Haiming asked rhetorically: "Killing him will solve your troubles?" ”
Shen Xi lowered his head, "I haven't found out the ins and outs of this matter yet, I don't want to waste my life." ”
"I didn't expect you to be quite kind." Haiming was thoughtful.
Shen Xi remembered something and immediately asked, "Haiming, have you found the peach fairy wood?" ”
Haiming took out two palm-sized pieces of pink wood from his sleeve, and the house was immediately filled with the fragrance of ripe peaches, which made people can't help but relish. "I only got two pieces, and this thing is hard to find."
When Shen Xi saw it, his eyes lit up, and he stretched out his hand to take it.
Haiming put it away and said with a wicked smile: "Don't you thank me?" ”
"Thank you, thank you." Shen Xi stared at the thing in his hand.
Hai Ming frowned slightly and asked, "What about your backbone, your pride?" ”
"Uh......" Shen Xi rolled his eyes and said, "This kind of thing is cumbersome." And people change. ”
Hai Ming heard her say that people change, and there was a strange look in his eyes, which flashed and was not captured by Shen Xi. He didn't tease Shen Xi anymore, and handed over the fragrant peach fairy wood to Shen Xi.
Shen Xi took it, pinched and rubbed it in his hand, and couldn't wait to stuff it into his stomach. "It's really fun to meet you." Shen Xi's eyes narrowed with a smile.
When Haiming heard this, his eyes became complicated again, he really wanted to tell her something secret, but he felt that the time had not come, so he held back. (To be continued......)
