Chapter 321: Whoever Gets the Stolen Goods
After Zhang listened to Zhao Wei and the doctor tell him what happened, he was so shocked that he couldn't say anything.
Even if Zhao Xiang was no longer likable in the past, she was also the granddaughter that the Niu family had always loved. Between grandparents and grandchildren, it is simply a nostril of gas. Niu's plan for Wang Tongsheng is for this granddaughter. After Zhao Xiang was released from prison, he defrauded two or three hundred taels of silver from the Feng family, and the first thing he had to do was to ransom the Niu family out of prison. Zhang's never imagined that Zhao Xiang, who is a filial granddaughter, would also have a day of drugged his grandmother!
Zhang covered his chest and asked Zhao Wei with a pale face: "What is she going to do?" Without Niu's, how can she live alone? Could it be that she thinks she can support the portal? ”
Zhao Wei said: "Grandmother doesn't have to be sad for that kind of person. There are two reasons why she would do such a thing. First, the Niu family has a bad reputation, and calculating the affairs of the Wang family has damaged her reputation and her future is unknown, so she may have hatred in her heart; The second is that Niu is seriously ill, there is such a drag, she is inconvenient, if Niu is gone, she may be able to take refuge in her mother's family. But no matter what the reason, if she has such a thought, she is already an animal, not to mention that she also did it herself? ”
Zhang took a deep breath: "Sure...... Is it really her hand? ”
The doctor was very sure of this: "The patient is already delirious, and there are only two of her master and servant in the house. The grass people had probed the girl to the wind, and she might have noticed something unusual, but she might not know the inside story. ”
"Is it true that the personal girl doesn't know the inside story?" Zhao Xiu interjected and asked, "If this girl can tell the truth, maybe she can testify against Zhao Xiang, do you want to call Bailing back and talk to her?" ”
Zhang looked at his granddaughter as if frightened: "What is the evidence?" You don't want to go to the government, do you? How can such a thing be known? Zhao Jue rebelled. It's already a big rebellion! If there is also a Zhao Xiang murdering his own grandmother, do you still want the reputation of the Zhao family? ! ”
Zhao Xiu disagreed: "There are more Zhao families in the world." That family had been expelled a few years earlier, so Zhao Jue's rebellion did not affect our family, let alone say that his grandfather was an old man who was wise and martial. Sun Tzu is a thief. Even if our family now receives a few taels of silver from Niu and Zhao Xiang every month, it doesn't mean that we recognize them as a family. Grandmother, don't take them too seriously, just think that the doctor we know has discovered a conspiracy and will report it to the government. It's best not to delay any longer, otherwise Niu's poisoning is too deep and can't be saved. That's the real murder. Jiang bought murder, and he could rely on the power of his mother's family to stay in prison for so many years. Zhao Xiang adheres to the legacy of his deceased mother and murders his grandmother, but he may not be able to last so long. ”
Zhang was taken aback. When I think about it, I can't help but feel sad: "The family is unfortunate!" Why did this group of unfilial animals never think about the reputation of the county grandfather before doing bad things?! ”
Zhao Xiu and Zhao Wei glanced at each other, but they didn't say anything. The stakes are high, how many can think of the reputation of their ancestors? Not everyone in the Zhao family is like the Zhang family, who regards the county grandfather as heaven.
Zhang cried for a while and calmed down: "This matter can't be reported to the official!" These days, it's a matter of the library. Our family has gained such a great reputation, and it is the time to exhale and raise eyebrows. If it was known at this time that Zhao Xiang had assassinated her grandmother, even if her family had already been expelled from the house. Some people will also say that she is the blood of the Zhao family and the niece of Jiannanhou. Now that there are so many people staring at our family, who knows if someone will deliberately make it bad? ”
Zhao Xiu disagreed: "Even the rebellion is out, what if there is one more unfilial piety?" No matter how good a person is, it is impossible to be appreciated by everyone. The mouth grows on another, and someone wants to make it bad. Even if there is no such thing as Zhao Xiang, they will still be bad. Otherwise, how could there be the word 'deliberately'? There is no point in covering your ears and stealing the bell. If we cover it up this time, it will be discovered in the future. We have one more crime, and that's when the real disrepute is ruined! ”
Zhao Wei persuaded the Zhang family: "Grandmother, everyone in the world knows that our two families are not in harmony, and they will never despise us because Zhao Xiang is guilty." Even if someone really makes it bad, the grandson is not afraid. At a young age, Zhao Xiang dared to assassinate his grandmother, who had always loved him, and he didn't know what he would do in the future. Just for the sake of the lives of those who may be victimized by her, we can't assume that we don't know about it! ”
Zhao Xiu also nodded: "Yes, although the Niu clan is not a good thing, Zhao Xiang is the most unqualified person in the world to kill her." ”
Zhang's brows furrowed and he sighed: "Okay, let it go." I don't care about this matter, and I'm not in the mood to care! ”
Zhao Xiu hurriedly gave his brother a look, Zhao Wei understood, and said to Zhang: "Grandmother, don't worry, your grandson will handle this matter well, and you will never ask anyone to pick us on building Nanhou Mansion." ”
Out of Zhang's yard, Zhao Wei first asked the doctor to take the doctor back to the front yard, and then discussed with his sister: "Do you want to do this thing?" ”
Zhao Xiu asked: "How can you do it all in one way?" ”
Zhao Wei smiled slightly: "We just want to be cautious, drag things out for a day or two, and then see what is going on with the Niu family." At that time, Niu's was only afraid that the Chinese medicine was deep and he was weak. If the government intervenes at this time, inspects Niu's corpse, and finds signs of poisoning, then Zhao Xiang will naturally not be able to escape. The murderer dies. Since she has complete human and material evidence, she naturally can't turn over. We just need to call Zhao Ze back, do the funeral for the Niu family, and then avenge her, and the people outside will only praise us for the benevolence and righteousness of the Nanhou Mansion. Zhao Xiang subdued the law, Zhao Ze was sent away again, and Zhao Yan's siblings left on their own, we don't have to worry about everything anymore, and we don't have to be afraid of what else they will do, and it will affect my grandfather's reputation, wouldn't it be a hundred? ”
Sure enough, it's a hundred, and there will be no future troubles!
But Zhao Xiu thought that the Niu family had not lost her breath yet, so he just sat back and watched her die and did nothing, which seemed a little ......
She only hesitated for a moment, Zhao Wei looked at her expression, and quickly said: "If my sister thinks that this is too cold, we can also take someone to Mianhua Hutong now to confiscate the poison." When others get all the stolen goods, Zhao Xiang can't escape either, and he will go to prison. Although Niu's has not lost her breath, she is sick to this field, how long can she last? Before she died, she saw that she had betrayed her relatives and left, and the white-haired person sent the black-haired person, and she still had to live to suffer the crime, which was also a very happy thing! ”
Zhao Xiu perked up: "This method sounds good. Let's go, shall we? ”
Zhao Wei smiled. Glancing back at the direction of the main house, Zhao Xiu decisively pulled up his sleeves and left: "Don't worry about grandmother, she is too soft-hearted to see that kind of scene." ”
Zhao Wei gave a post to Jiang Cheng, who was most familiar with the Tai Hospital, in advance, just as the latter was taking a break today. It didn't take long to arrive at the Zhao family's small house. Zhao Wei invited him to go along, and then brought the doctor, let his sister Zhao Xiu take the carriage, and the group went to Mianhua Hutong outside Xuanwu Gate.
Zhao Wei also sent people to find Zhao Qixuan and other members of the Zhao family to come to testify. It happened that Zhao Ming, the younger brother of Zhao Hui, the owner of the sixth house, had just arrived in the capital to inspect the six-room industry, and Zhao Qixuan brought him with him, and then pulled his son Zhao Huai. Then he ordered someone to bring Zhao Ze, the general of Zhuangzi.
The mighty two people happened to meet at the intersection of Mianhua Hutong Jiutiao, and they went to the courtyard where the ancestors and grandchildren of the Niu family lived together. When the neighbors saw their posture, they were all frightened. Some people recognized that among the people who came with Zhao Wei, there was a servant from the Hou Mansion of Jiannan, who had come to deliver rice, flour and firewood in the past. Then he grabbed the man and asked what was going on. The servant only vaguely said that it was the Hou Ye who brought the Zhao family to ask about the crime, but did not mention the specific reason. The neighbors knew that they were all from the Zhao family, and it was obvious that the clan was doing something. Although they were curious, Niu and Zhao Xiang had a bad reputation, and they didn't meddle in anything, they just stood and watched from a distance.
However, Zhao Xiang was startled when he saw such a large group of people entering the door, and then he was angry: "How can you break into someone's house without permission?" Isn't the Hou Mansion great? Is there any royal law left?! ”
Zhao Xiang instructed the mother-in-law to move the chairs out of the courtyard. Sitting down with Imperial Physician Jiang and their cousins, he retorted to Zhao Xiang: "This is the courtyard rented by our Hou Mansion, and we can come in if we like." You can live with whoever you like, you're just a borrowed guest, what's the point? Also mention the royal law? It turns out that you still know what the royal law is?! ”
Zhao Xiang was startled, and his heart was a little weak, but his mouth was still hard: "Why don't I know what the royal law is?" What the little aunt said was really incomprehensible! ”
Zhao Xiu didn't pay attention to it, and only looked at Zhao Wei. Zhao Wei nodded. He made a gesture to Jiang Cheng: "It's too much for Jiang to be the doctor." ”
Jiang Cheng had already heard Zhao Wei talk about the truth of the matter in advance, and knew that this matter was related to the Zhao family's personal interests. He smiled slightly, but didn't say much. Then he turned and went into the house. The doctor and Lu's mother hurriedly followed.
When Zhao Xiang saw the doctor, he already had an ominous premonition in his heart, and subconsciously stepped forward to stop him, but was stopped by several mothers-in-law. She was anxious and couldn't help but cry out, "What are you going to do?" What are you going to do to my grandmother?! "Trying to shout loudly and attract outsiders.
Zhao Xiu said coldly: "If I were you, I would never shout loudly, lest the truth be revealed in a while, and the more people who know, it will be more difficult for you to step down." ”
Zhao Xiang choked and looked back at her in horror, his eyes rolled quickly, and cold sweat had broken out on his forehead for some time.
Imperial Doctor Jiang Cheng didn't stay in the house for too long, so he came out and replied to Zhao Wei: "Little Hou Ye, the patient was indeed hit with arsenic, fortunately, the patient vomited and leaked many times, which reduced the medicinal properties, and took the antidote in the past two days, and the situation improved slightly." But she was weak, and after this torture, she was afraid that she would not live long in the future. ”
Zhao Wei nodded: "Please ask Imperial Doctor Jiang to prescribe it." No matter how you say it, it's a human life. ”
"The little marquis is merciful." Jiang Cheng waved his hand and bowed, and then went into the house again. He brought a small servant here, and the doctor was very enthusiastic about helping him, and said: "My pharmacy is nearby, and the medicinal materials are quite complete, and I will be able to get the medicine back soon." Jiang Cheng also smiled kindly at him: "In this case, please leave everything to you." I prick the patient first to see if I can wake her up. ”
Zhao Xiang was listening clearly, and he was already in a cold sweat. How could she not understand? She thought she could hide it from the doctor, but in fact, people had already discovered what she had done. Now that people have caught her, how can she escape?
Suddenly, she thought of a reason: "This is a trap you have set...... You're the ones who want to frame me! You sent the medicine, and you also sent the rice and noodles! If my grandmother was hit with arsenic, it must have been you! You're going to harm me and my grandmother! ”
Zhao Xiu glanced at her: "Don't take people for fools." We're really going to hurt you, we just have to ignore it. Why do you want to rent a house for you, send rice and noodles? Besides, if there is a problem in the rice noodles, can't others find out? The medicine is also very easy to check. Didn't all the dregs fall at the foot of the wall over there? Would you like to take a silver needle and give it a try? ”
Zhao Xiang was rejected by her, and secretly complained in her heart that Pei'er didn't clean up the medicine residue.
Zhao Wei had already ordered several mothers-in-law to search all the houses to see if they could find the medicine in question. Without much effort, a small half-pack of arsenic was found in Zhao Xiang's room.
Zhao Xiang's face was already as pale as a dead man, but he still had to struggle to the death. She slapped Pei'er in the face with a backhand: "! It must have been you! Grandmother just beat and scolded you a few times, and you hold a grudge! You boiled the medicine, you made the food, not the arsenic you ordered, who else would there be?! ”
Pei'er was already stunned by her, and fell to the ground, looking at the people sitting in the courtyard, and then at the hideous and terrible face of her own girl, and suddenly shivered.
She's not stupid, and at this point, what else doesn't she understand?
She looked at Zhao Xiang faintly: "The girl saw Mother Wang of the Seventh Uncle's house yesterday and told her that the old lady would die soon, and when she died, the girl would be able to go to the Seventh Uncle." Originally...... What's going on? ”
Zhao Xiang's body was cold. She no longer had the courage to look back, and she didn't dare to look at what kind of eyes those Zhao clan people were looking at her. (To be continued)
