Chapter Seventy-One: Murder and Replacement
Master Pei has always been very well conditioned, so he quickly listed all the things he knew about Governor Zheng's doing, and actually wrote several pages.
Among them, there are many things that corrupt the law and enrich their own pockets.
Seeing that he was still writing, Sikong Qianche suddenly stopped him: "Come on, don't write it, let's talk about these things at once when we settle accounts in the future, let's check an old case today." So saying, he ordered the mother and daughter to be brought out.
Seeing the mother and daughter, Governor Zheng's face changed a few times.
"Zheng Yaozhi! You return my husband's life! The woman finally couldn't help it, and rushed towards Governor Zheng.
Zheng Zhifu was tied up tightly, there was nowhere to hide, and the mother and daughter rushed up and beat them violently, even tearing and biting, Su Zhiyuan and Sikong Qianche looked at this scene, and couldn't help but take a small step back, I have never seen a woman really angry, and the fight is like this.
I really want to eat his flesh and drink his blood.
After about a quarter of an hour, Sikong Mubai said lightly: "Mrs. Zheng, you can take a break and tell the matter." ”
The woman vented, heard the cold voice, and returned to herself, she stopped biting at the Zheng Governor's Mansion, stood up, tidied up her clothes, and then didn't speak, she was already choked.
Su Zhiyuan handed over her handkerchief and sorted out the wounds on her face, and the woman said: "You are present as evidence, I am Zheng Yang, this is my daughter Zheng Xiaojuan, ten years ago, my husband went to Beijing to take the exam, and wrote back at that time to say that he had won the top three, and he would be awarded an official in a few days, and he would come back to reunite with our mother and daughter, but after this letter, I never heard from my husband again." ”
"You drink saliva first." Listening to her hoarse voice, Su Zhiyuan couldn't bear it, so he personally brought a glass of water to moisten her throat.
After Zheng Yang thanked him softly, he took a sip of water and continued: "After three years, I have been looking for traces of my husband, I ran to the capital, and inquired in every way, only to know that my husband was appointed as an official back then, and now he is now the prefect of Lizhou, I thought that he didn't want to recognize our mother and daughter after his career, so he wanted to find an explanation, but I didn't expect to find out when I arrived in Lizhou, this prefect is not my husband at all." ”
The people present felt sorry for the mother and daughter, and they also sighed that this Zheng Governor was really ruthless.
Zheng Yang continued: "I thought it was a mistake, and I found out after inquiring again and again, until recently, I learned that my husband had two people with the same name in the same year, and the Zheng prefect in front of him, he was not admitted that year, but he met my husband on the way back to his hometown, so he killed him and took his letter of appointment, this deception is seven years!" ”
“…… Woo...... Woo......" Governor Zheng looked at the mother and daughter, shook his head desperately, and didn't know what he meant.
"Okay, we will help you report this matter to the Criminal Department for verification, if what you said is true, then this fake Zheng Zhifu will definitely be punished as he deserves." Sikong Qianche comforted them, and ordered them to stay and settle down.
Then he looked at Governor Zheng: "Are you willing to say it now?" ”
Governor Zheng is still resisting: "It's not me...... I didn't. ”
Su Zhiyuan nodded: "Then you wait." ”
She went back to her room and brought Zheng Jiami out and pulled the silver needle off her head.
Seeing Zheng Jiami, Governor Zheng's face changed: "You, why do you want to kidnap my daughter?" ”
"Eh, you can eat indiscriminately, you can't talk nonsense, we didn't kidnap your daughter!" Su Zhiyuan signaled him not to talk nonsense, and the bright silver needle made Zheng Zhifu feel cold in his heart.
"Your daughter told me in person that she was leaving Lizhou, but I think that your identity is so sensitive now, and you are in a hurry to let your daughter leave, is there some ulterior secret, so I intercepted her, of course, if you are fine, Miss Zheng will naturally be fine, but if you have something, then ......" Su Zhiyuan's words were not finished, and Zheng Jiami had already woken up slowly.
"Miss Zheng, are you awake?" Sikong Qianche squatted down and talked to Zheng Jiami.
Unexpectedly, Zheng Jiami had taken the secret medicine before, and when she woke up at this time, it was just when the effect of the medicine attacked, as soon as she saw Sikong Qianche, her eyes immediately lit up, and she threw herself straight towards Sikong Qianche.
Frightened, Sikong Qianche was excited, and ran away: "What's going on?" ”
"What did you do to my daughter?" Governor Zheng looked at his daughter dumbfounded, pounced when he saw a man, and even began to undress in public.
"This is the medicine in my cup that your daughter invited me to dinner, but unfortunately, I changed the wine glass while she was not paying attention, which is the scene you see now." Su Zhiyuan looked at Governor Zheng very innocently.
"Ahh Zheng Zhifu was ashamed and angry, shouting Zheng Jiami's name, hoping that she would wake up, but unfortunately, Zheng Jiami had been controlled by drugs at this time, and she couldn't wake up at all, and she couldn't even hear anyone talking, just immersed in her own hallucinations.
"Please, let me go, let Mi'er go, I'll say everything, I'll say everything." Governor Zheng felt that he was going crazy, and he actually wanted to witness his daughter do such a shameful thing.
"Okay." Su Zhiyuan raised his hand for another stitch, and Zheng Jiami fell asleep again.
However, this time, Su Zhiyuan directly pulled out the needle after pricking it, so that in this way, it won't be long before the effect of the medicine is dissipated, and Zheng Jiami will come to his senses by himself.
Governor Zheng was helpless, so he admitted all the things he had done, he took Sikong Mubai and them to his study, opened one of the drawers, and revealed the secret room behind.
Sikong Mubai ordered people to go in and search, and it was all some money that he had embezzled and bribed over the years.
"These are all things I have saved in the past few years, and basically I haven't touched them, except that someone above found out about me, but he protected me, I sent him a lot of money every year, and he continued to protect me, so I was able to do this position for four years."
Governor Zheng knew that if he didn't say it again, he was afraid that he wouldn't have much chance, so he said everything he could.
"Who's the guy up there?" Sikong Mubai stared at him deadly.
"I can't say this, I want to know for yourself, there's only so much I can say, please let my daughter go." After Governor Zheng said this, he took advantage of everyone's inattention and crashed to death on the wall next to him.
The sound of "bang" shocked everyone's spirits, and even Sikong Mubai didn't expect that he would commit suicide directly.
Governor Zheng is dead, and all the clues are broken.
Sikong Mubai ordered people to sort out and liquidate all the things in his secret room, send them to the disaster area, and then personally wrote an excerpt, hoping that the emperor would report the matter here.
This is all an afterthought, after Zheng Jiami woke up, she learned that her father was dead, she collapsed on the spot, Su Zhiyuan told her: "Because your father is no longer here, we will not pursue his affairs, so you can live on your own, I hope you don't disappoint your father." ”
Zheng Jiami has lived in the pampering of Zheng Zhifu since she was a child, and now there is suddenly no shelter for her, and she doesn't even know what to do.
After hastily burying the Zheng Governor's Mansion, Zheng Jiami also lost his trace.
The matter in Lizhou was over, and a few people had nothing else to do, so they were going to go to other disaster areas to see, and by the way, they made a detour back to Beijing.
But not long after, he received a letter, which told Su Zhiyuan that Su Zhiwei had been named the crown prince's concubine, and took the opportunity to visit Su Zhiya to rob Su Zhiya.
Su Zhiyuan couldn't care about any more, and directly asked to return to Beijing immediately.
When Sikong Mubai and Sikong Qianche read the letter, they didn't know what was going on, so they could only comfort Su Zhiyuan while taking a shortcut back to Beijing.
Several people returned to the capital all the way non-stop, and Su Zhiyuan went straight to the courtyard of Ruiwangfu, but there was no shadow of Su Zhiya in the courtyard for a long time, only Li'er was alone, and when she saw Su Zhiyuan, she cried.
"Don't cry yet, tell me first, what happened in the months that I was away?" Su Zhiyuan was annoyed in her heart, she would definitely not let Su Zhiwei go.
Li'er cried for a while, and then raised her head and told Su Zhiyuan: "Soon after you left, the second lady was named the prince's side concubine, and later when she returned to the door, she heard that the eldest lady was now recuperating in another hospital, so she came to disturb every three or five days, the eldest lady had a good temper, and let her come in every time, and later, the second miss became more and more presumptuous, and when she saw that the eldest lady was getting better day by day, she falsely accused the eldest lady that the eldest lady did not respect her, and said that she was now the prince's side concubine, so she took the eldest lady away!" ”
"And now?" Su Zhiyuan doesn't need to be described in detail by Pear, and she also knows what good things Su Zhiwei has done during this time, is the crown prince's concubine? Wait!
"The slave maid doesn't know, the slave maid went to the prince's mansion to inquire, but they said that the side concubine recently lived in the East Palace with the prince and did not return to the house, so the slave and maid don't know what happened to the eldest lady." Li'er was also anxious, and the young lady handed over the task of taking care of the eldest lady to herself, but she didn't complete it well.
"It's okay, don't cry, pack up your things and go back to the General's Mansion, I'll pick up the eldest sister and we'll go to the eldest brother's house to live." Su Zhiyuan decided that after finding Su Zhiya, he would definitely not return to the Prime Minister's Mansion.
Su Zhiyuan arrived at the Prince's Mansion alone, but he didn't expect Su Zhiwei to be at home.
Seeing Su Zhiyuan, she raised her chin proudly: "It turns out that the third sister is back, how about it, knowing that the second sister is now the prince's side concubine, do you want to come and stammer?" ”
"Dream your big spring and autumn dreams!" Su Zhiyuan has never seen such a shameless person: "Phew, who wants to slap you, you shameless thing, hurry up and hand over the eldest sister, otherwise don't blame me for being unkind!" ”
"Big sister? The eldest sister has already left, I took the eldest sister to live for a period of time before, after all, I can't help myself now, so I took the eldest sister to accompany me, but I didn't expect the eldest sister to live unaccustomed, she had already left. Su Zhiwei didn't admit at all that Su Zhiya had robbed the Prince's Mansion by herself, let alone that Su Zhiya was now in the Prince's Mansion.
"Hmph, who's going to listen to your nonsense!" When Su Zhiyuan came, she borrowed the whip that Sikong Qianche used before, she had already let it go, and if she couldn't find Su Zhiya today, she would beat whoever stopped her.
Su Zhiyuan showed the whip in her hand, she doubled her micro, and looked at Su Zhiwei: "I'll count the three, you'd better hand over the eldest sister yourself, otherwise you'll ......"
She flew up with a whip and directly rolled up all the things on the table to the ground, and the sound of the tinkling porcelain landing on the ground made Su Zhiwei's face change: "You, you dare to be presumptuous here?" Do you know what this place is? ”
"I know, isn't it the Prince's Mansion? You kidnapped the eldest sister without my consent, if the eldest sister is a little injured, I absolutely don't care what kind of concubine or concubine you are, I want you to pay for your life! Su Zhiyuan didn't talk nonsense with her at all, and directly with another whip, the entire table was scattered.
Su Zhiwei realized that Su Zhiyuan did not mean to be a little timid, now the prince entered the palace to talk to King Rui of Qi about disaster relief, and it is estimated that he will not be able to come back in a short time, if he and Su Zhiyuan have a hard time, he will definitely suffer, and the person who knows the times is Junjie, she turned sideways and got out of the way: "You look for it, I said no, if you find it, you will kill me, and I will admit it, but if you can't find it, turn around and let the prince treat you for a crime of disrespect!" ”
"I'm afraid I won't come!" Su Zhiyuan was not polite at all, and walked directly into the room by room to look for it, and if someone stopped her, she would unceremoniously whip it over.
