Liu.

The murderer who killed Han Chong, the guard of the Han family, was a person from Liujia Village.

His fiancée was humiliated by Han Chong two years ago, unbearable humiliation, jumped into the well and died, in order to avenge this, he endured the humiliation, mixed into the Han family, and planned to kill Han Chong, although he was finally found out and committed suicide, but before he died, he was also regarded as revenge.

Today is a busy day, and when Tang Ning and Xiao Jue came to Liujia Village, it was already in the afternoon.

Xiao Jue stopped a villager at the entrance of the village and asked, "Old man, how is Liu Zheng's house going?" ”

"Liu Zheng, you ask Liu Zheng?" The old man looked at him vigilantly, waved his hand, and said impatiently: "Liu Zheng's family is dead, what are you looking for him for......"

Xiao Jue said: "About Liu Zheng, I have a few questions for you......

The old man's expression became even more impatient, and he said, "You can find someone else to ask, I want to go back to dinner......"

Before he could finish his words, he stopped abruptly, looked at the silver ingot in Tang Ning's hand, and swallowed a mouthful of saliva.

Tang Ning shook the silver in front of his eyes and said, "I don't know if it's inconvenient for the old man, tell us everything about Liu Zheng." ”

The old man looked at the silver ingot, his eyes were shining, he had lived for so long, he had never seen such a big silver ingot, nodded like a chicken pecking rice, and said: "Fang, it's convenient......"

Tang Ning looked at him and asked, "I heard that Liu Zheng had a fiancée before?" ”

"Died, died two years ago, was ruined by the young master of the Hou Mansion, and jumped into the well after he came back, we small people couldn't even pay the rent, and we didn't dare to sue, and then it passed like this......" The old man was very cooperative this time, and as soon as Tang Ning's voice fell, he rushed to answer.

Xiao Jue looked at him and asked, "Marquis Wulie's Mansion?" ”

The old man nodded again and again, and said, "Yes, that's what kind of Hou Mansion!" ”

He looked at the silver in Tang Ning's hand and continued: "Liu Zheng is dead, and the old lady in his family can't live, and within two days, a rope hangs her neck, even if she doesn't hang herself, she has to be forced to death by the Tang family, and if she can't pay the rent, they will grab food, and they won't give people a way to live......"

Tang Ning raised his eyebrows and asked, "Tang family, which Tang family?" ”

"Which Tang family can there be, it is the Tang family that has a concubine in the palace!" The old man pointed to a large piece of land outside the village and said, "These lands are all ...... of the Tang family."

Xiao Jue clenched his fists, gritted his teeth and said, "Damn! ”

The old man gushed endlessly: "Liu Zheng's family is really miserable, the girl's family is a little better, the dead sister, and a younger brother, the old lady will not starve to death, a few days ago, a lame good man, came to send them a lot of food, these years, there are still good people's ......"

Tang Ning looked at him and asked, "Where is that girl's home?" ”

The old man stretched out his hand and pointed ahead, and said, "The second house at the end of the village is." ”

Downing tossed the silver at him and strode forward.

The old man took the silver, first wiped it on his clothes, then put it in his mouth and bit it, and then carefully kicked it into his arms, and with a happy face, he ran wildly in the direction of the door.

In Liujia Village, in a dilapidated yard, an honest young man patted the old woman's back and said, "Mother, eat slowly, there is still ...... in the pot."

The old woman hurriedly said, "Keep what is in the pot, keep it for tomorrow." ”

The young man said: "Mother, don't worry, Engong gave me a lot of silver, and a piece of silver tickets, I have grown so big, I haven't seen a silver ticket, I went to the grain shop to ask, these can buy a lot of food and meat, we don't have to starve in this life......"

Tang Ning and Xiao Jue stood outside the wall, stopped for a moment, and then got up to leave until there was no sound in the courtyard.

In the carriage back to the city, Xiao Jue clenched his fists, bloodshot appeared in his eyes, and said angrily: "The Tang family, and the Tang family, I want to present this matter to Your Majesty......"

Tangning looked at him and asked, "And then?" ”

Xiao Jue asked: "Buying murder and sending people to kill people, isn't this crime big enough?" ”

"Big, but what's the use of big?" Tang Ning looked at him and said: "As long as the Tang family pushes out a random person, they can resist this matter, and they can even put the blame on the dead Tang Jing, when the time comes, Tang Jing's death, the first one will be suspected on the head of Marquis Wulie." ”

Xiao Jue's expression was angry and he said, "Then what should we do?" ”

Tang Ning leaned on the carriage, closed his eyes, and said, "Let's go back first." ”

……

The trip to Liujiacun made Tang Ning string together the cases of Han Chong and Tang Jing, and almost all the links had been figured out.

Han Chong's death was planned by the Tang family behind his back, and the ultimate goal was not Marquis Wu Lie, but him, Han Chong was just a chess piece for them, a chess piece that could be discarded at any time.

However, they didn't expect that the chess piece in their eyes was the only son for Wu Liehou.

Tang Huai made Wuliehou lose his only son, and Wuliehou also made him lose his only son.

If Han Chong's case is to be revealed, it may have a little impact on the Tang family, but it will not hurt the roots, and the Marquis of Wu Lie, who was brought out along this line, will definitely not have any good results.

As he said two days ago, it was the eldest son of the Tang family who died, not anyone else, Han Chong died, the court can understate it, Tang Jing is dead, no matter what the reason, the court will not let go of the murderer behind the scenes.

At this moment, two days have passed since Tang Ning found out the truth.

In the past two days, he has been hesitating, and he has not made a choice until now, or rather, he doesn't know what choice Wu Liehou has made.

He sat at his desk, a figure coming from behind, his hands gently resting on his shoulders, rubbing slowly.

Tang Ning grabbed Su Ru's hand and asked her to sit on his lap, Su Ru looked at him and asked, "Brother Xiao Ning, has you encountered any difficulties, I have been thinking about it for two whole days." ”

Tang Ning nodded and said, "There is one thing, I don't know how to do it." ”

Su Ru smiled and said, "Brother Xiao Ning is so smart, he must be able to think of a way, is there anything I can do to help Brother Xiao Ning?" ”

Tang Ning grabbed her waist and said, "Just let me hold it for a while." ”

Su Ru looked down at him, her expression soft, and a shallow smile on her face.

After a long time, Tang Ning let go of her, stood up, kissed her on the forehead, and said, "I want to go to the palace and wait for me to come back." ”

……

The Royal Palace, the Imperial Study.

In addition to the early dynasty, Emperor Chen was not in the dormitory, but in the imperial study, which was also the palace that Tang Ning had visited the most.

Emperor Chen attached great importance to Tang Jing's case, and the eunuchs in the palace came to inquire many times in the past two days, but Tang Ning dealt with it with the fact that he did not find any useful clues.

When he walked into the main hall, he saw that Tang Huai was also there, and not only that, but Marquis Wulie was also in the hall.

Marquis Wulie knelt in front of the hall and said: "Your Majesty, the minister thinks that my son's death is still strange, and I implore Your Majesty to order Dali Temple to investigate carefully, although he deserves to die, but he should not let the real murderer go unpunished." ”

Emperor Chen looked at him and frowned: "Didn't I already say it, the physical evidence of this case is conclusive, and the case of Dali Temple has been closed, what else is wrong?" ”

"There is no need to talk about this again." Wu Liehou was about to speak, but Emperor Chen glanced at him, said lightly, looked at Tang Ning again, and asked, "Tang Jing's case, what have you found?" ”

Tang Ning arched his body and said, "Your Majesty, when the minister was investigating Tang Jing's case, he accidentally discovered some suspicious points in Han Chong's case......

Wu Liehou raised his head and looked at Tang Ning.

Tang Huai, who had always kept his head down, also raised his head suddenly.

Emperor Chen looked at him and said, "I asked you about Tang Jing's case. ”

Tang Ning said: "But Han Chong's case ......"

"I said, Han Chong's case is over here." Chen Huang stood up and asked, "What have you found out about Tang Jing's case?" ”

"Yes." Tang Ning nodded, and arched his hand: "Back to Your Majesty, the minister has the great trust of His Majesty, Tang Jing's case, the minister ...... Nothing was found. ”
