68, illegitimate child, you can give birth if you want.

Xu Han saw that the sisters' expressions and conversations were abnormal, and goodbye to the red marks faintly exposed between Xiao Wen's necks.

She got up and said to the county magistrate on the side,

"Bring all the people into the back hall, evacuate the people here, and tell them that they will be interrogated again tomorrow."

I don't want the county order to 'sneer' and laugh,

"This adult can't be pitiful."

"Obviously, Wen's murder is conclusive evidence, since the adults want to try the case in public, why do they have to go to the back hall?"

The people also want to know how this case with conclusive evidence was turned over.

So no matter how the soldiers of the Jinyi Guard drove away, they would not disperse.

That little Wen probably knew why Xu Han wanted to move the group to the back hall for another trial, she bit her lip and looked at Xu Han firmly,

"My lord, you don't need to go to the back hall, you can't say anything to people, although my sister killed the outsider, it's not her fault."

Xu Han sat down with a solemn expression, "Speak." ”

"My sister has been living with her mother-in-law since last year, and because of the poverty of the family, the foreigner did not look down on my house, but on that day, he brought good wine and good food and came to the house to drink with my father."

He took the opportunity to get his father drunk, and with the help of the servants in the house, he took the opportunity to ...... Take the opportunity to ......"

Xiao Wen burst into tears and choked up, she swallowed her saliva and said, "Take the opportunity to rape me." ”

Xu Han clenched his fists and took a deep breath, and the onlookers on the side were also in an uproar.

But the old man was suddenly furious, and pointed at Xiao Wen, "My son has taken a fancy to you, that's your blessing, what do you have to be wronged?" ”

Xiao Wei slammed the tea bowl in his hand on the table, and the brocade guard behind him pulled the embroidered spring knife and glared at the old man,

"Adults judge the case, what kind of mouths do you have, you can only say when you are asked to speak."

The old man shrank his head, looked at the embroidered spring knife in awe, and shrank to the side like a quail.

"And then?" Xu Han asked.

"After my father woke up, when he saw me crying, he pointed to his nose and scolded me, saying that I looked like a fox, and I deserved to be ruined by the outsider.

"Follow the example of Empress E's daughter Ying and serve a husband together."

Xu Han was expressionless and pursed his lips.

Xiao Wen raised his neck, revealing the red marks under his neck, which was shocking,

"Originally, I was insulted, and I should have been bitten by a dog, but my father wanted me to go into the wolf's den, and my sister had already let that lewd thief, ruined and insulted, and wanted me to be a concubine? I'd rather die. ”

"I don't dare to tell my sister about this, she is already very bitter, I don't want to add fuel to the fire, and I have been avoided by me a few times since then."

"But I didn't expect that my father would drug my food, and after I was stunned, he called a foreigner......

Although Xiao Wen was in tears, he was still strong, but when he said this, he really collapsed, and the cry made people's hearts sour.

Wen hugged his sister, and the two hugged and cried again.

After a long time, Xiao Wen finally stopped crying, and said in a hoarse voice,

"What's even more infuriating is that a few days ago, my father teamed up with a foreign man to call my sister back, and even asked the two of us to serve him at the same time, we didn't agree, and even tied us up and tortured us together."

"My lord, how can we live such a day?"

Xu Han gritted his teeth,

"Go and bring the servants of the Wailang and the second child of the Wen family."

How can a man be a man who is outside the staff and if there is no one to help, how can he bully two women at the same time?

A violent anger rose in Xu Han's heart, and her hands were tightly clenched to control her emotions.

Without waiting for anyone to mention it, the people who had good things took out the servants of Mr. Wen and the servants of the staff in the crowd and threw them in front of Xu Han.

This kind of thing is really unbelievable, a father sells his daughter one after another.

The anger of the people has risen, especially those who have a conscience and a little chivalry, and they can't wait to beat Uncle Wen to death.

That old man Wen hid in the crowd, and when he saw that Xiao Wen had said everything, he wanted to escape, but he didn't expect to be discovered.

He knelt down, not daring to look at the Wen sisters' faces, lying on the ground, hating to shrink into the ground.

"The one who kneels, tell me about the outsider."

Old Uncle Wen trembled and knelt on the ground, "I was just drunk that day to let my little daughter be bullied by my son-in-law." ”

"This is not a glorious thing, besides, I have lost my innocence, if I don't give my son-in-law a concubine, who else can I marry?"

Xu Han gritted his teeth and asked, "The first time you said that you were drunk, then what about later?" Why are you fascinated by Xiao Wen, and even ...... with Wai Lang?"

Xu Han felt that she couldn't go on, she thought that Xu Jun was already a very bad father, no matter how bad it was, it was just like Xu Gelao, who wanted to poison Xu Xilian to death with a bowl of medicine for fame.

Unexpectedly, this old man Wen didn't even want a reputation, and sold his daughter again and again in order to tie up with his son-in-law.

Face, fame is simply worthless to him.

Old man Wen secretly glanced up at Xu Han and whispered,

"My lord, don't you listen to this cheap girl's nonsense, it's obvious that she herself is also moved by the staff wailang, which is only half pushed, and if you don't marry the staff outsider, where will they have a good life wearing gold and silver?"

Xu Han looked at Old Man Wen coldly, "I think it's you who live a good life with fine clothes and food." ”

Old man Wen was wearing satin, loosely wrapped around the thin body, on the other hand, Xiao Wen, although her face was beautiful, but her hands were not delicate, she looked a little rough, and she was wearing ordinary coarse cloth clothes.

Old man Wen shrunk his neck and sneered,

"My two daughters were given to the staff to be used, even if it was not too much to take some money, not to mention that it was a son-in-law who was filial to his father-in-law."

"Phew." Xiao Wen took a sip of Old Man Wen and said, "What kind of bullshit, it's clearly a beast eating human blood steamed buns." ”

Old man Wen was spit on her face by a mouthful of spittle, and there were so many people watching on the side, he was suddenly annoyed and angry, raised his hand to beat Xiao Wen, and scolded in his mouth.

"You cheap skin, what are you pretending to be high, didn't your sister also marry her son-in-law obediently at the beginning, and she was born to you, if you simply agreed, would there be such a thing today?

If you do this again, be careful that Lao Tzu sells you to the building, you don't have to split your legs to do business. ”

The old man's words became more and more unpleasant, making people unbearable.

"Presumptuous!" Xu Han said in a low voice, with a little sensitivity.

Old Man Wen's body shook, and he withdrew his hand in a sneering manner, and his originally angry expression suddenly became cringe.

Xu Han asked the attendants around Yuan Wailang again, and everyone said that it was almost the same, and the evidence that Wen's murder was indeed conclusive.

It's going to be dark.

If this case continues to be tried, that's all there is to it.

It's just that Xu Han didn't want to give up, she looked at Xiao Wei, who didn't look at anything on the side, pursed her lips, and asked,

"Xiao Wen's words have been heard, and they are true, then, Commander Xiao, do you think, how will this case be judged?"

Xiao Wei's delicate face stretched out, the tears in the corners of his eyes were so bright that people couldn't move their eyes away, but he turned a blind eye to these attentions, curled his fingers and knocked on the table, and groaned for a moment,

"There was a case in the First Emperor Dynasty, A first killed B's father when he was a county lieutenant, and later, he was promoted to the inspector of the imperial history, and the scenery is infinite."

However, one day, B killed A to avenge his father's death. Then he went to the yamen and turned himself in. ”

"This case is very sensational, even the first emperor is very concerned, some people advocate that he be killed according to the law, and others say that B is avenging his father and should be commuted."

"In the end, no one was convinced, and B was imprisoned for the rest of his life."

Of course Xu Han knew about this case, she and Xu Xiuyan had read many such books together, her eyes couldn't help but search in the crowd, and saw Xu Xiuyan standing there indifferently as always, as if he was an outsider, staying out of the matter.

Her eyes darkened, and she returned to Xiao Wen's body.

I only heard Xiao Wei say,

"Wen's murder of her husband is excusable, but according to the law, you should behead ......"

When the blind old woman heard this, she didn't wait for Xiao Wei to finish speaking, she knelt down with the girl and cried sadly,

"Lord Qingtian, the old woman said that although it was my son who died, you really can't blame my daughter-in-law, she has always been so filial, she is a good person, please be gracious."

The girl was crying and crying,

"My dad is a big villain, and those uncles he brought once touched my little buttocks, but my mother said that the girl's family can't be touched casually."

When the father of the outsider who came to shout injustice heard this, he immediately scolded, "Xiaomi, what nonsense are you talking about, how can your father hurt you." ”

The girl hid beside her blind mother-in-law with her mouth pouted.

Old man Wen didn't have the idea of interceding for the two daughters at all, but said,

"The eldest daughter's murder is already ironclad evidence, everyone has seen it, but I didn't let her kill people, and I don't have the face to intercede for her, so the eldest master can be sentenced how he should be judged."

The onlookers booed, this old man is really not a human being, and how to judge the Lord of Jinyiwei will still show mercy?

Do you need him to catch up and pat the ass?

Xu Han turned to the county order and asked,

"Since the adults said that this case is ironclad evidence, then the legal principle is nothing more than human feelings, the outsider has nothing to do, rape his wife and sister, avenge his sister, Da Wen's murder of her husband, how do you think it should be judged?"

The county magistrate's waist straightened, it seems that this adult is nothing more than that, although there was an accident, but the evidence of Wen's murder is conclusive, and he can't overturn the case if he wants to.

He said,

"Xia Guan thinks that even if the Wen family is for his sister, but the rape is different from the murder that Commander Xiao said, and filial piety and piety are also different, and it is not right for Wen to kill his husband with his wife, and the crime should not be forgiven, and beheading is inevitable."

He said righteous words.

Xu Han slowly exhaled a breath of turbidity, yes, according to the laws of the dynasty, it is only one year for a husband to kill his wife, and it is a crime that cannot be forgiven.

You see, this is the difference between men and women, women, not people!

Xu Han's face could almost come from the ground, she closed her eyes,

"Wen, the inside story of your case is already clear, what else do you have to say?"

Wen raised his red and swollen eyes, and his expression was in a trance, "If I hadn't accidentally been favored by that thief and married into his family, I wouldn't have been beaten by torture." ”

"And my sister, I won't be humiliated by that beast, I will kill him, and I will pay him my life."

"Bah, you slut, how can you compare your life to my son? What a beautiful place my son is, but he helps the old man do things. Can you? ”

The old man who shouted grievances was angry, and he looked like he was going to eat Wen's.

When Wen heard this, he was immediately emotional, "What do things for the old man, what you do is hurtful things, I have also read the account book, but it is just ......"

"Shut up." The county commander suddenly opened his mouth to scold, and his eyes were like sharp blades thrown at Wen, telling Wen to shut up.

Xu Han's heart moved slightly, and he looked at Xiao Zhuo, Xiao Zhuo bowed his head, beckoned to Bai Zhuo, and then Bai Zhuo retreated.

The county magistrate couldn't hear what Xiao Zhuo's master and servant said, and when he saw Bai Zhuo retreating, he was suddenly a little anxious, he was already reckless with his rash scolding just now, if Bai Zhuo went to the place he thought, what would happen, and the county magistrate didn't know.

For a while, the county magistrate was a little restless.

Xu Han did not question why the county order interrupted Wen's words, but raised his hand and motioned for Wen to continue,

"The sister of the sinner is innocent, please save her, her face is like this, and her father will ...... in the future."

She glanced at the old man Wen next to her, and it was because of her outstanding appearance that the sisters were favored and forcibly occupied by the outsider.

But beauty is given by God, and no one can force it.

Is it a sin to say that because of her beauty? Is it their sin to be desecrated by thieves because of their beauty?

If it's all the beauty that is to blame, then she'd rather not have this beauty.

Xu Han suddenly remembered two lines of poetry,

"Life is not a woman's body, and a hundred years of bitterness and happiness are left to others." At home, follow the father, marry the husband.

As long as Xiao Wen is at home for a day, Old Man Wen can send Xiao Wen to the bed of the outsider, and he can send her to someone else's bed.

Xu Han said, "I'll do my best." ”

Try your best to keep little Wen's.

When Wen heard this, he burst into tears and kept kowtowing to Xu Han.

The 'bang' sound made Xu Han's heart beat wildly.

Her heart is grateful to the Xu family again, which gave her the freedom to choose her life, and also thanks to the Xu family, so that she was born in a big family, otherwise, how much better is she than the Wen sisters?

She lowered her eyes, and did not speak, but looked through the Dongyuan regulations in her mind to find out if there was a way to keep Wen alive.

She gritted her teeth, she always had to do her best before knowing the destiny of heaven, she always had to find a way to save the Wen family, killing someone deserved to die, but Wen didn't deserve to die!

She didn't immediately sentence Wen, but turned to Old Man Wen,

"Because you didn't fulfill your responsibilities as a father, the big and small Wen families are all your daughters, as a father, in the face of the plundering of the powerful outsider, not only did not resist and protect his daughter, but instead helped the abuse, do you know the guilt?"

Old man Wen didn't expect that there was still his own sin here, he kowtowed and said,

"We're just ants, even if we don't obey the outsider, there will be other people who will spoil the two of them, should I strangle them to death?"

The people outside couldn't bear Old Man Wen anymore, and everyone spit saliva on Old Man Wen's body, and found rotten vegetable leaves and rotten eggs and smashed them on Old Man Wen's body.

"You have two such good girls, and they are so bad, they really want to die if they don't die, my lord, you must let this dead old man die a miserable death, so that he can no longer harm two poor women."

The people were emotionally agitated and demanded that Old Man Wen be executed.

Old man Wen was smashed by rotten vegetable leaves, rotten eggs, and even small stones with nowhere to hide, and kept begging.

Xu Han had already stood up, hid far away, and watched coldly.

She really can't blame Old Man Wen, but it doesn't prevent her from doing some small things.

In this way, Old Man Wen will be a rat on the street in the future, and everyone will shout and beat him, even if Xiao Wen is still at home, he will not dare to do anything to Xiao Wen.

She had no way to let Xiao Wen and Old Man Wen break away from the father-daughter relationship, so she could only help her do what she could.

She raised her hand and signaled the excited people to calm down, and it was quiet for a long time.

Xu Han looked at the father of the outsider who was shouting grievances and said,

"The outsider raped his wife and sister, beat his wife, behaved badly, and violated human morality.

The old man was stunned, Xu Han's appearance clearly meant that his son was more than innocent?

He was not convinced!

Xiao Wei glanced at his father-in-law and said, "Why are you not convinced?" ”

There was coldness in his eyes, so that the old man did not dare to open his mouth.

"If you are not satisfied, you can appeal to the top. Just ......"

He leaned back in his chair and said leisurely,

"This commander is a member of the three grades, supervising hundreds of officials, and observing the people's feelings for His Majesty, if you want to appeal, then you can only go to the emperor to complain."

"But do you know what to do with the royal lawsuit? First of all, to roll the nail plate...... Do you know all about pegboards? The long nail is driven into the board, and the man will roll over it, and the nail will dig into the flesh and make a popping sound......"

"After rolling the nail board, if you still have a life, you have to go to the oil pan...... Do you know the oil pan? The oil is boiling hot, and it is very popular in Lord Yama. ”

"Three ......"

The old man's face was white, he shook his body, and shouted loudly to the county commander regardless of the public,

"My lord, you obviously took my money and asked you to put Wen's cheap maid to death to pay for my son's life......"

The county magistrate waved his sleeves, and his face changed, "You old man, you are so unreasonable, when did the official accept your money?" Don't spew blood. ”

No matter how the county magistrate is, there are no three hundred taels of silver here, and the people on the side are like mirrors in their hearts, why are the blind mother-in-law and the girl kneeling outside, and the county government is slow to accept the form?

It's because there's a cat in it.

The rotten vegetable leaves and rotten eggs in the hands of the people almost couldn't help but throw them at the county magistrate, but when they thought that the mountain above their heads hadn't been moved in the future, how would it be good to give them small shoes to wear?

So everyone held back again, but their eyes were full of disdain when they looked at the county magistrate.

As soon as the county magistrate raised his head, he confronted Xu Han, who was expressionless, and he stumbled and said,

"Down, the lower official can explain ......"

His gaze swept to Xu Xiuyan on the side, and suddenly a flash of inspiration flashed in his mind, and he immediately pointed at Xu Han and said,

"You are obviously just the entourage of 'Ma Gongzi', a subordinate, and you are actually entrusted to the big and sit on top to handle the case, you are clear...... It is clear that he is pretending to be an official of the imperial court, and he is going to prison. ”

Before he finished speaking, he listened to Xiao Weidao,

"Do you mean that this commander is blind and let a subordinate go up to solve the case, or do you mean that these people are blind?"

If Xu Han is a subordinate, then everyone listened to the case for an afternoon, didn't they follow the nonsense?

The county magistrate pulled out Xu Xiuyan,

"Ma Gongzi, tell me if she is your entourage, but the lower officials took her into the city from the village over there with you."

Xu Xiuyan's expression was cold, and he asked the county magistrate directly, "How did my son say that she was my entourage?" If you're with me, you're all my retinue, so you're also an entourage, my lord? ”

Xiao Xiao glanced at Xu Xiuyan thoughtfully, and the county magistrate's face turned red,

"Ma Gongzi, this is not child's play, how can the top approve this random judgment? How should I write my submission? ”

Xu Xiuyan raised his eyelids, and his tone was calm and gentle,

"My lord, if you don't have a good memory, I'll remind you that this case is to be decided by Jinyiwei's people."

"You're just a seven-grade official, Jinyiwei does things, when do you want to write a submission for the case?"

"Even this son, it seems that he can call the shots better than you......"

The face of the county magistrate was said to be blue and white for a while.

Xu Han didn't want to look at the county order's palette, but said his opinion on Wen's verdict,

"A foreigner rapes his wife and sister, which is contrary to human morality, and sometimes beats his wife, but he is a traitor."

"Wen's revenge for his sister is for the sake of righteousness and friendship, so it cannot be regarded as an ordinary murder case or a husband murder case."

"I privately thought that Wen could be exempted from the death penalty and sentenced to two years in prison."

The county magistrate knew from the beginning that the person who tried the case was biased in favor of Wen, but he didn't expect the final verdict to be so favoritic.

Although he can't get used to these so-called big guys, he is the head of a county here, and he has the obligation to remind these big guys that their heads are dizzy.

"Although Wen's murder of her husband is excusable, killing is always a fact, how can you avoid beheading?"

"Is this a woman who can kill her husband if he doesn't like him in the future? Anyway, you don't need to be killed, but you can be a good person after a few years in prison. ”

"Isn't this a mess?"

Xiao knocked on the table,

"Are you trying the case, or is this lord trying the case? If you don't accept this statement, then don't publish your 'high theory.'"

With Xiao Wei and Xu Xiuyan dealing with these annoying flies on the side, Xu Han pursed his lips and looked at Xiao Wen,

"You ......"

Xiao Wen kowtowed to Xu Han three times, originally thought that her sister was dead, and suddenly she could survive in a desperate situation, rushing to this, she should kowtow to this adult a few more times, as for herself......

"If the slave dies, he won't go back to that home, and if he goes back, it's a death, it's better to die innocently outside."

Xu Han had a headache, she didn't go home, and she couldn't ignore it, she thought about it,

"If you don't go home, you might support yourself?"

Xiao Wen said firmly, "Yes, originally my sister and I were raising this family, adult, the slave wants to follow my sister, even if she can't serve her sentence, you can take care of her from time to time." ”

Xu Han thought for a while, since Xiao Wen could support herself, she said,

"Then I'll help you set up a female household, but you must know that this road is not easier than that of you being a Wen girl."

A woman, especially a woman with outstanding looks like Xiao Wen, is a very difficult road to establish a household, not to mention a sister who has been sentenced to two years in prison.

Xiao Wen's Dao,

"Slaves are not afraid, what is more terrible than death?"

Xu Han nodded, courage can indeed defeat a lot of darkness.

At this point, the case is almost finished.

It was getting late, and the onlookers watched the day's excitement and dispersed, some lamented what happened to the Wen sisters, and some hated the evil deeds of the outsiders.

Not only was Old Man Wen thrown rotten vegetable leaves and rotten eggs, but even Wailang's father was not spared.

Old man Wen's head was bleeding from the stone.

He covered his head with his hands and walked towards his home with his waist hooked.

Over there, Bai Zhuo got Xiao Wei's order and went to the house of the outsider.

At that time, Yuan Wailang's father said that Yuan Wai Lang was helping the old men to do things, and the county magistrate always refused to let go of Wen's family, so it can be seen that among the people who were helped by the clerk, there must be this county magistrate's share.

A treacherous person like Wai Lang will definitely keep a hand in doing things, maybe there is evidence of helping to do things at home?

Xiao Wei and Xu Han are simply clear-hearted, but with just a look, they know what the other party thinks.

Bai Zhuo came back an hour later, not only by himself, but also with a soldier of the brocade guard to find Xiao Wei.

At that time, Xiao Zhengzheng and Xu Han were resting behind the mansion, and Xu Xiuyan was sitting alone.

"How can Xiao Shizi report this case to the Criminal Department when he is going back?" Xu Xiuyan said lightly.

Xiao said lazily, "If there is anything to prepare, you can say whatever you want......

Xu Xiuyan lowered his head and took a sip of tea,

"Wen's murder, this is conclusive evidence, and Lord Xu's sentence is too lenient, although if Wen's is killed, it is not conducive to educating the people, but the criminal department restricts the law, and the little prince does not follow the criminal law or precedents, I am afraid it will not pass."

Xu Han solemnized his face and said,

"Human life is at stake, you have to try."

Xu Xiuyan said again,

"Isn't that a foreigner a life? The little prince is too biased like this. ”

"Why is it that even though you are a man, you are so tolerant of women?"

Xu Han was a little annoyed, and couldn't even tell if it was a weak heart or what, for the two Wen sisters, she was indeed empathetic because of women, and it was inevitable because their experience was biased.

She immediately said,

Xu Tanhua's words seem to look down on women, what's the matter? Are you so hateful because you were hurt by a woman? ”

In fact, the case was judged by her, which would be to hide people's eyes, so Xiao Wei did it, but after returning to Beijing, she would naturally explain the inside story to the emperor.

As for the Criminal Department, as long as the emperor can make sense, then even if no one in the Criminal Department has sympathy, what is there to fear?

Xu Xiuyan sighed when he heard this, and said in an apologetic tone,

"I'm sorry, I was too radical just now, but this matter, the little prince is taking it seriously."

"Right now, we have to talk about what to do next, my identity as a horse boy will soon be exposed."

"Since Jiangnan is in chaos now, and today's behavior of the little prince has angered the county order, I don't know how it will develop in the future."

"Let's just talk about the purpose." Xiao Xiao suddenly interrupted Xu Xiuyan's words.

Xu Xiuyan said in a light tone, "I can help you investigate Jiangnan's case, and even investigate it to the end,"

"Can you help us?" Xu Han and Xiao Wei were a little surprised, this is a little subtle for us.

How did Xu Xiuyan set them together?

"Purpose?" Xu Han was cautious and asked.

Xu Xiuyan glanced at Xu Han meaningfully, and said, "You should know my purpose, you just need to tell me, do you want to?" ”

Xu Han said, "I don't think you should ask me this question, after all, we have reached a consensus before." ”

Xu Xiuyan bowed, yes.

Xiao said, "What are your conditions?" ”

Xu Han was not interested in the conversation between Xiao Xiao and Xu Xiuyan, got up and went to the door, and saw Bai Zhuo hurriedly bringing someone over, and when he saw Xu Han, he saluted and pointed to the brocade-clothed guards behind him,

"This is the brother who went to investigate the body of the detective Wailang, and found an abnormality, so he came over to report it."

Hearing that there was a scene, Xu Han's face became very serious, there was no idler in Jinyiwei, they all had their own specialties, and this abnormality must be extraordinary.

So she led the two into the house.

Coincidentally, I heard Xiao Xun ask Xu Xiuyan, "The wife candidate in your mind must be knowledgeable and interesting, smart and not conceited, isn't this the perfect wife that men want?" But such a woman, will you love her? ”

Xu Xiuyan lowered his eyes, and his long eyelashes covered his dark and deep eyes.

"The love of a man and a woman cannot make a relationship last a lifetime, but the love of husband and wife can."

Xu Han paused for a moment, his brain didn't know what to think, and the two people who spoke saw her coming in with someone, so they didn't continue to talk, but looked at her one after another.

Bai Zhuo stepped forward and arched his hand,

"Shizi, there is something unusual about that foreign man's death."

Xiao Wei frowned and said,

"Wasn't it injured by Wen's sharp knife?"

The brocade-clothed guard who was inspecting stepped forward and shook his head,

"The lord ordered his subordinates to go down and inspect the corpse, and the subordinates found another wound on the corpse."

He opened the small bag he was holding in his hand, and inside was a small diamond-shaped hidden weapon.

Xu Han took a closer look, and when he saw the small hidden weapon clearly, there seemed to be a thunderbolt that struck Xu Han's mind.

There was a sudden pain in her chest.

She stared at the brocade guard's hand, her fingers unconsciously twinning.

She's seen such a little secret weapon before!

After the defeat of the White Emperor Valley that year, it was found on Huo Zheng's body in the corpse mountain.

It was this hidden weapon that injured Huo Zheng first, so that he couldn't escape, and then ten thousand arrows pierced his heart and died!

This secret weapon is deeply engraved in Xu Han's mind, and he will never forget it until he dies.

It's not just people who can speak.

If you've been drawing the shape of this secret weapon day and night, it will tell you something.

Thousands of miles away, in the Limen Pass, the White Emperor Valley, and then in the bustling small county town in the south of the Yangtze River, the appearance of the hidden weapon was so unexpected, which was completely unexpected to her.

Before she came, she didn't expect that there would be clues about the death of the Huo family in this small county.

It's just that shock is shock, and it doesn't seem so bizarre anymore.

Skynet is magnificent, negligent but not leaky!

Her strange appearance also aroused the attention of Xiao Wei and Xu Xiuyan, Xiao Wei said,

"Have you ever seen this secret weapon?"

Xu Han came back to his senses and shook his head, how was she going to tell him this unknown secret?

However, since this member has a second wound on his body, there is a new development in Wen's murder case, maybe she won't even need to be apprenticed for two years!

The soldiers inspected by the brocade guards are still explaining,

"The location where this hidden weapon entered is Yuan Wai Lang's heart, and the place where Wen's sharp knife was injured is Yuan Wai Lang's abdomen."

"But the staff is full of fat, and the length of the sharp knife only penetrates his flesh, and it fails to pierce his internal organs, so it is impossible for people to die on the spot."

So, this hidden weapon was shot by someone in the dark, why did you shoot it?

Bai Zhuo looked at Xu Xiuyan and saw that Xiao Wei had no intention of stopping it, so he took out an oiled paper bag from his arms, and opened it to see an account book and a few letters.

The letters were written to him by county decrees and to higher-ranking officials, all of which instructed the clerks to do things.

Some are asking him to find fault somewhere, some are asking him to contact someone, and most of all are asking him to sell things!

As for the account books, they are just ordinary account books, and there is no clue to it.

Without further verification, it can already be concluded that the staff is just a small knot in the collusion of Jiangnan officialdom.

It's just that with this knot, soon, you can find other knots, turn the Jiangnan officialdom upside down, and lift the gloom underneath.

But in Xu Han's heart, this knot has another use, maybe the Huo family's case, with this trip to Jiangnan, will have a great harvest, and it is even possible that during the trip to Jiangnan, the evidence will be completely found and the Huo family will overturn the case.

……

In Beijing, in the backyard of Zhenbei Wangfu, Xu is pruning flowers and trees on the side, and there is a woman kneeling on the side, the woman is hiding her face and crying, sad and sad, looking ahead, the woman's belly is towering, and it looks like she has been pregnant for more than six or seven months.

Xu put down the scissors in his hand, took the maid's handkerchief and wiped his hands, Shi Shiran asked,

"You mean, you already have the flesh and blood of the old prince in your belly?"

She opened her mouth to ask, and the sad cry stopped, and the woman on the ground said with teary eyes,

"Yes, please don't be embarrassed for the sake of the child, the old prince, he kept saying to let me in, but because of the concubine, I was always distressed."

"The concubine is also the daughter of a good family, but she loves the old prince with all her heart, and she doesn't seek fame, but now that she has a child, she can't let the descendants of the royal family become illegitimate children."

"The concubine has always admired the concubine's demeanor, and knows that the concubine has a broad temperament, so she just asks the concubine to let the concubine enter the house and have a place to settle down."

"As for the child, the concubine is willing to let him be raised under the concubine's knees, and Qin Fang is willing to be a foot-washing maid for the concubine."

Xu Shi slowly wiped his hands clean with a handkerchief, and sighed that Xu Jun was really getting more and more shameless.

However, she didn't show it on her face, and her face was calm and calm.

She asked softly,

"Your name is Qinfang?"

The woman in front of her looked like she had passed her twenties, but she knelt on the ground, her posture was soft, as if she was boneless, delicate and weak, so pitiful,

"Well, beg the concubine to give the concubine a way out......"

Xu looked up and down, handed the handkerchief to the maid beside him, his eyes were full of smiles, and he sighed,

"You really shouldn't have come, you shouldn't have come to me......"

She waved her hand, and said a little boringly,

"I know what you said, let's go, I'm in a good mood today, I don't want to be difficult for you."

As he spoke, he walked outside, and as soon as he moved, the maids and grandmothers standing on the side all moved, performing their duties and serving Xu's side.

Because of proper maintenance, Xu's posture is still very slim, and he doesn't look old at all.

Qin Fang knelt on the ground, and when she saw that Xu was leaving, she immediately got up, rubbed her knees, gritted her teeth and chased after her stomach.

"Sister stays ......"

The smile on Xu's face suddenly disappeared, because the good mood of receiving Xu Han's letter was gone, she turned her toes, her eyes were clear,

"Concubine Ben doesn't have a sister, I think you don't know what happened to the last person who called me sister, right?"

Qin Fang shook her head, bit her lip, and took a few steps forward,

"Concubine, Qin Fang has no offense, everyone in Beijing knows the prestige of the concubine, and the old prince is not allowed to have three wives and four concubines, but he is extremely tolerant and kind to women, as a woman, she envies the concubine, and hopes to have such casualness and courage as the concubine."

"Qin Fang didn't dare to go to the city with the concubine sisters, she just wanted her child to have a background."

She stood there with her stomach in her hands with her eyebrows lowered, like a pitiful and bullied flower.

Xu raised his eyebrows and smiled,

"The last one was worthy of my sister, and now the grass at the head of the grave is about three feet high."

"Since you say you're a girl from a good family, you look like you're in your early twenties, right? A girl from a good family is so late to get married? ”

"Since she is a girl from a good family, who doesn't want to be a lady and be a concubine?"

"Since you have become a good thing with the old prince, that is, you have no matchmaker and no employment, and you are doing a bad thing?"

"Then what's the difference between you and the flower girl in the hook bar?"

"In my opinion, the flower girls in the hook bar are better than you, although they sell themselves to find a way out, but that is also a way to live."

"It's you, you kid, does Xu Jun know?"

"Or are you calculating like this, because you think I'm very good-natured? Calculate that I won't be difficult for you? ”

Qin Fang didn't expect Xu to say that she was worse than Hua Niang, and she pierced her mind again, and her face turned white suddenly.

Xu shook his head slightly,

"There is no shortage of children in this palace, let alone men, if you are for the good of the child, how can you let him be an illegitimate child?"

"Whether it is a boy or a girl, an illegitimate child cannot take his father's surname, cannot be on the genealogy, and is not recognized by the world."

"You can give birth if you want, it's just, don't talk about the joke of raising it under my knees."

"My son is a dignified prince, but I don't want to have a thing that can't be on the table to be an eyesore around me."

Qin Fang's shoulders trembled slightly, she never imagined that Xu would be so humiliated by her.

She was about to step forward, but was stopped by Xu, and at the same time there were two maids in front of her.

"You just stand there, wait for me to leave, you can go out again, but the child in your belly is still worried, don't have a case, then you won't even have the last chips."

"I don't want you to come in with your stomach up and go out with your stomach deflated, my heart is to the Buddha, and I won't do that hurtful thing."

Qin Fang was even pierced by Xu Shi for the last thought, her knees were so weak that she almost couldn't stand, but she didn't bring a maid when she came in.

However, she didn't come in vain today, the old lady's breezy appearance was just forbearing, and her heart was clearly angry.

She stood there and watched Xu leave, but before she had taken a few steps, a figure rushed in at the door of the Moon Cave.

Qin Fang's eyes lit up, it was the old prince who came over.
