Hearing that Qian Youcai was still shouting injustice, Zhou Wenzong was even more angry, and threw the jade pendant on the ground again, and said angrily, "Since you didn't do it, why did this jade pendant appear by the wall." If Xiaolian really accepted the jade pendant, there was absolutely no reason to throw it away by the wall. It is clear that you instructed Zheng Feng to cross the wall, poison Song Xiang's medicine, and lose the jade pendant under the wall in a panic. Yes and no? You also instructed others to put arsenic into the water tank of Dr. Gao's house, and poisoned Dr. Gao and Xiaolian who had just returned from collecting medicine, yes or no? Don't try to deny it, on these two talismans, there are the handwriting of you and your second son Qian Liangren, and you have also found arsenic in your home that has not been used up. The evidence is conclusive and irrefutable. Yes and no? You failed to instruct Xiaolian to poison her, and in the name of a fortune teller, you carried out fraud, in a vain attempt to cover up your crimes, yes or no? You are rampant in the township, and the official did not notice it for a while, which made you do whatever you wanted, and now you have intensified it, and you actually use evil words to harm others, yes or no? ”

Zhou Wenzong said five "yes and no" in a row, and the Qian Youcai family was speechless, because Qian Youcai had indeed harmed the Song family, and now there are rich and wealthy and Qian Liangren's handwriting on the two talismans, plus arsenic was found at home, the so-called Taoist priest was nowhere to be found, and Zheng Feng's jade pendant fell on the wall again, which is really indisputable. Many villagers who had been bullied by the Qian family had circumstantial evidence, and Qian Youcai suddenly had nothing to escape. It can only be said that this plan to move the tide of disaster to the east is too perfect, so that Qian Youcai does not even have a chance to be judged.

In fact, Zhou Wenzong and Song Zheng both knew that if it was really money and wealth that were poisoned, it would be impossible to leave a note. What Zhou Wenzong thought of was to turn this case into an iron case and close the case quickly, so as to win the reputation of "Zhou Qingtian". And what Song Zheng thought of was that this plan was interlocking and seamless, such an opponent was too powerful.

At night, Zhou Wenzong finished the trial and immediately began to sort out the case file with the public of the county government, which was half a foot thick. The next day, he asked the villagers who had been bullied by the Qian family to press their handprints, and Song Jue signed on behalf of the Song family. As for Qian Youcai and Zheng Feng, under the coercion of more than a dozen officials, they also pressed their handprints, so it became an iron case.

Zhou County ordered the case to be handled on the spot, and the verdict was pronounced on the spot: because it was a murder of the family members of the imperial court officials (Song Jue had already received a letter of appointment and was considered an official), the suspected crime was added to the first degree. Qian Youcai, Qian Liangren and Zheng Feng will be arrested and imprisoned, and after reporting to Zhizhou for approval, they will be beheaded after the autumn. The wealthy eldest son, his family, and his daughters were sent to Yunnan to the border. The Qian family's slaves Qiu Ju and Qiu Lan were sentenced to the Song family as slaves. As for the property of the Qian family, except for the two villagers who sued Qian and wealthy villagers in court to redeem their land, everything else belonged to the Song family. This made many Songjiazhuang villagers who had been bullied by Qian Youcai regret not mustering up the courage to sue the Qian family in court. In addition, Dr. Gao needs to be buried by the Song family, and Xiaolian will be hastily buried to show her evil deeds. As for Qi'er, Zhou County's order, who was in a hurry to finalize the case, didn't bother to pay attention to it, but selectively ignored it.

On the evening of 23 August, the officials escorted the Qian family and others and returned to Juxian County.

The reason for this verdict is also related to Song Zheng's efforts. During the trial of Zhou County's order, under Song Zheng's guidance, Song Jue arranged all the food and clothing of the public. In addition, Song Zheng discussed with the Wu family, and also asked people to send some hard-earned money, Zhou County ordered twenty taels of silver, the county lieutenant and the chief bookkeeper each five taels, and the public servants one tael each, which almost wiped out half of the Song family's family funds. Of course, these were all done without Song Jue. Zhou Xianling and others could only smile after resigning. In the end, Song Zheng also asked the long-term workers Song Xiaosi and Erhei to rush to Shishan Town overnight, gave a tael of silver, made a plaque, and wrote "Daqi Baogong" and gave it to Zhou County. Zhou County's order naturally refused to accept it, so Song Zheng asked people to beat gongs and drums and send them to the Juxian County Government alone.

Originally, Song Xiaogongzi also wanted to let a group of people carry an open wooden box during the trial of the Zhou County Order, fill it with cement, and then flatten it, and then let the Zhou County Order step on it, leaving a footprint, which means that the Qing officials "keep their feet", and finally seal the footprints of the Zhou County Order in the Song ancestral hall for the people of Songjiazhuang to pay homage to from generation to generation. This approach is naturally to emulate the Oscars of later generations, and the award-winning stars all leave footprints, handprints, and the like. It's a pity that Song Jue thinks this move is too disgusting and resolutely disagrees. Song Zheng couldn't help it, he also had the idea of sending the "Wanmin Umbrella", but he didn't expect Song Jue to agree, so he didn't put it forward.

According to Song Xiaogongzi's idea, as long as the Zhou County Order is flattered, first, Qian Youcai and others will definitely get a heavy sentence, and second, Qian Youcai and others will definitely get a heavy sentence, and second, Qian Youcai will be able to get most of the property. Although the danger of the Song family has not been completely lifted, it can be counted a little, the saint has clouds, "support the bold, starve the cowardly", and "it is stupid B to have cheap and not sticky". Although he didn't leave any footprints and didn't send Wanmin umbrellas, things were still as Song Zheng expected, and the verdict of Zhou County's order was extremely beneficial to the Song family.

When the verdict was announced, Qian Youcai, who was sick, choked on the spot, and was so scared to death. Zhou Wenzong ordered it to be thrown into Maling Lake to feed the fish. As for the rest of the Qian family, including the Qian Manchu cabinet, they were all escorted back to the county jail, and they would soon be escorted to the border area. Originally, Qian Youcai wanted to bear all the charges before he died, but Zhou County Ling still sentenced Qian Liangren to death, this is because Qian Liangren actually had a friendship with Zhou County Ling in the public court, and he also wanted to tell the matter of sending silver, "Zhou Qingtian" was naturally angry, and asked the official to beat Qian Liangren's mouth and make him speechless. When the verdict was announced, because Qian Liangren's handwriting was on the rune paper, he was charged with poisoning Dr. Gao and took the opportunity to sentence him to death.

Of course, Zhou County's order was still relatively merciful, and the lower body of the classmate who was full of money was rotten, so Zhou County's order asked a former executioner to cut it off with a large blade, so as not to save the life of Qian Man's cabinet. It's just that neither Zhou Wenzong nor Song Zheng thought that this full cabinet of money would cause them great trouble in a few years.

After sending Zhou Xianling away, the next thing is to hold a funeral for the old man and Dr. Gao, these things are arranged by Wu and others, Song Zheng doesn't understand the rules of this kind of thing, except for accompanying the spirit, there is nothing to do. Although Qian Youcai's family was uprooted, Song Zheng knew that the real murderer was someone else, and the inside story still needed to be revealed. In addition, with the skills of those people, it is not difficult to poison everyone in the Song Mansion, why they only poisoned the old man Song and let go of the rest of the Song family, this is also a question. The only thing that is certain is that Old Man Song must have been implicated by Old Man Gao and died, and only by asking clearly can he avenge the old man. Therefore, Song Xiaogongzi went up to Xishan with full grief and indignation, and went straight to Qi'er's hiding place.

This time, Song Zheng didn't hide anything. Since those people only put poison into the old man's medicine, and they used arsenic, a poison that is too vulgar to be vulgar, first, it is to facilitate the blame for money and wealth, and second, they may not have any intention of harming the rest of the Song family. In this way, whether it is the Song family or Qi'er, it is safe for the time being. Therefore, Song Zheng came to the cave and shouted, "Qi'er, you come out." ”

In the past two days, he was busy participating in the trial, and Song Zheng did not go up the mountain. Qi'er stayed alone in the cave for two days, terrified. When she was on the run, there were several times when she was in danger than now, but at that time, she was accompanied by an old man, but now she is just a person, and that kind of bitterness can only be experienced by her alone. Therefore, hearing Song Zheng's voice, Qi'er pushed down all the stones at the entrance of the cave and jumped out with a rolling belt.

Song Zheng rushed forward and raised his slap to slap him. However, seeing Qi'er's appearance, he couldn't do it again. Qi'er is not only haggard and abnormal, but also has red and swollen eyes, hair and clothes are messy, and she is clearly a beggar. Qi Er was very surprised when she saw Song Zheng, but when she saw Song Zheng's angry face, she couldn't help but be stunned.

Although Song Zheng's slap didn't go down, he didn't want to give Qi Er a good face, he shouted: "Who are you and Old Man Gao?" What enemies did you provoke? If you die, you will die, why are you still implicating my grandfather? ”

Qi Er didn't know why, and looked at Song Zheng with blank eyes. Song Zheng said angrily: "Old man Gao's plan succeeded, and both he and Xiaolian were poisoned. In the middle of the night, they put arsenic in the medicine my grandfather was drinking, and poisoned his old man to death. Then, I told you about the events of the past two days.

When Qi Er heard that Old Man Gao was dead, she just choked up, and there were no more tears in her crying eyes. Song Zheng looked at her like this, and he was even more embarrassed to do it, but he still said with a cold face: "Don't cry, everyone is dead, you should tell me what is going on now, right?" Don't fool me with the broken stories made up by Old Man Gao, I don't believe it either, let's be honest! ”

Qi'er said in a hoarse voice: "It's not that I don't want to tell you, but I really can't say it, it's not good for you to know it." ”

At this time, Qi Er actually wanted to hide it, Song Zheng couldn't help it anymore, raised his hand and slapped Qi Er in the face, and roared: "Fuck you, don't tell me these bullshit, people have killed you, what else are you pretending to be?" If you don't say it, who will I seek revenge? Let me tell you, even if the other party is the king of heaven, I will poke a hole in the sky. ”

Qi Er was slapped and was immediately stunned, where did she think that Song Xiaogongzi, who had always been gentle and elegant, would be so tough, he would do it without saying a word, and he was rude and foul, where there was a little bit of a scholar's appearance, he was clearly a little bully.

Song Zheng saw that she was stunned, and he was even more anxious, and shouted: "Say it quickly!" "The gesture is going to fight again. Qi'er sat on the ground and cried loudly. Song Zheng knew that her psychological defense line had been destroyed, so he no longer went crazy, but sat on the ground with her. Song Zheng was not in the mood to comfort her, patted her on the shoulder, and said, "Say it, don't hide it." (Ask for collection)
