Chapter 408
On that day, Sun Zheng returned to the city from the White Horse Temple because it was a little late, so he wanted to go home directly.
But I didn't want Caidie to arrange for someone to watch outside the city, and when she saw Sun Zheng from a distance, she sent the news to Cao's house.
The girl Caidie even found an excuse to pull Cao Yuntian to the street again, and had a second chance encounter with Sun Zheng.
As the saying goes, meeting is not as good as a coincidence, meeting twice a day, everyone feels that it is a bit of a coincidence, so when Caidie talked about inviting Sun Zheng home as a guest again, Sun Zheng only hesitated slightly, and then nodded happily and agreed.
And because he was already in Bingzhou City, Sun Zheng didn't think about asking someone to send a message to his family, he just thought that he would go home early after eating.
Where did he think that he would go and never return this time......
After eating Japanese food at Cao's house, Sun Zheng offered to leave.
Cao Yuntian chatted a lot with Sun Zheng at the banquet, but he felt that this scholar was erudite and talented, and if he could make friends early, he couldn't say that he would be able to read a future.
Seeing that the father-in-law from the family had a good impression of Sun Zheng, Caidie suggested that everyone move to the backyard, and she stroked the piano to cheer the two of them.
Cao Yuntian immediately agreed, and Sun Zheng also nodded happily.
After the dance, Cao Yuntian disliked the tea, so he went out of the backyard to get wine in the front yard.
But he didn't want to, when he took the wine jug back from the front yard, Sun Zheng was already planted in the water tank, and his favorite concubine was dipping Sun Zheng's head in the water tank, disheveled.
Sun Zheng was just stunned for a moment, and then hurriedly pulled Caidie aside and pulled Sun Zheng's head up from the water tank.
It's a pity that it's too late, Sun Zheng has already lost his breath.
put down Sun Zheng in a daze, and Cao Yuntian remembered his concubine Caidie.
Just now, he only noticed that Rainbow Butterfly was disheveled, but he didn't notice that Rainbow Butterfly was facing misery. Only this point, Cao Yuntian guessed a certain possibility, pointed at Sun Zheng and asked, "...... he?"
Cao Yuntian only said one word, Caidie cried, and Zhijiao was sad when he heard it. Cao Yuntian didn't care about anything else at the moment, hurriedly hugged Caidie into his arms, gently patted the frightened concubine, and didn't ask what happened at all.
In fact, if he asked Caidie at the first time, this girl might not have revealed her flaws. After all, that wasn't what she had planned.
Cao Yuntian left the backyard and went to the front yard was something she calculated, and she planned to take advantage of this time to directly immerse Cao Yuntian in the water tank, and then she hit the wall and fainted......
However, taking advantage of Cao Yuntian's time to appease her, the girl thought of another excuse.
immediately said that Sun Zheng had a hateful face and was in vain as a seed of reading. In front of her husband, she was no longer there, and she wanted to do that kind of reluctance to her.
Cao Yuntian didn't doubt him, but he only thought that what Caidie said was true. After all, no one would have thought that this butterfly girl would want to borrow a knife to kill someone, and it was not enough to kill one person.
Looking at Sun Zheng's corpse lying on the ground, Cao Yuntian was in trouble.
Originally, his plan was to report to the official, and then report to the old men of the government in detail, thinking that it should not be a big deal. Please net
But Caidie didn't agree to live or die, only saying that this Sun Zheng was going to take the exam soon, and he had some connections in the government, plus the Sun family's great business, if the Sun family knew about it, the Cao family would never have peace.
Cao Yuntian thought that what Caidie said was also reasonable, and he was even more entangled in his heart at the moment.
After asking Caidie, I thought about it and had to invite my father to see if there was any other better way.
Although Cao's father has not read any books, he has some ability to save such a family business from a small person in the market.
If you have the ability, you have the ability, but the two fathers and sons of the Cao family have a problem, and the ears are too soft.
Under Caidie's soft voice, the father and son of the Cao family fell one after another, and finally inexplicably agreed with Caidie's statement and threw Sun Zheng into the Fen River.
For Di Renjie, the luck in the misfortune may be that this Caidie did not know what happened on the Fen River in advance, and this time it was really a coincidence.
But what about the coincidence, with what Caidie committed, beheading is inevitable.
However, the law is not human, Di Renjie has some pity for the appearance of the Cao family's father and son, and Caidie is already pregnant, so after thinking about it in every way, Di Renjie still did not change his initial idea, but just put Caidie in prison, not harshly, only after he gave birth to a child for the Cao family, he would be beheaded to show the public.
Of course, Di Renjie can't call the shots for such a big thing. He had already reported the whole matter to Su Peng, and then Su Peng reported it to the imperial court.
As for whether or not the fetus in Caidie's womb can be retained, it depends on the meaning of the imperial court.
"You scholars, all of you have a thousand cuts. If there were no ruthless scholars like you in the world, how could there be a woman's sadness. ”
Before being put into prison, Caidie didn't say anything soft in the face of the Cao family's father and son with complicated expressions, but just looked at them one by one, and finally said a cold word, then closed her mouth, as if she was talking to these people again, and she had dirty her mouth.
Watching Caidie's figure disappear at the end of the prison step by step, Di Renjie did not have the comfort of the boulder landing in his heart, but had a faint sadness.
Of course, it's not because of the words before Caidie left. Di Renjie didn't take what the criminal said. He was just a little sad, sad that the world was declining, and that the commoners' family's pursuit of fame and fortune was so frenzied;
He is just a little ridiculous, ridiculous that the world is ignorant, the rich brother who reads and writes, will be coaxed by a woman like this, if he hadn't found out by himself, I'm afraid Cao Yuntian would not know the truth of this matter until he died......
The father and son of the Cao family seemed to be a few years older, and after thanking Di Renjie for saving his life with a sad face, they looked depressed and helped each other to walk in the direction of their home.
Di Renjie just shook his head, then turned around and went back to the yamen.
Although it was already evening, and although a strange case had just been solved, Di Renjie did not rest.
It's not that he doesn't want to rest, it's that he doesn't have time to rest.
During this period of time, in order to track down the three major cases, he has abandoned the daily official duties of the Facao Yamen for a long time. He didn't have time to read many of the documents sent by the counties under the jurisdiction of the state.
Moreover, even if he doesn't deal with daily official business, the paperwork of Sun Zheng's case alone is enough for him to be busy for a few days.
For a few days, Di Renjie did not go out of the gate, did not step out of the second door, locked himself in the Facao Yamen, day and night, kept sorting out the documents at hand.
Not to mention Di Renjie, even Huang Hong, who was running errands and delivering documents, was busy with red eyes.
