Chapter 7 fingertips for marriage, childhood sweethearts
Song Ruilong found a black silk in the corner of the room, he picked it up and looked at it, and his heart was full of joy, and he said, "Oh, I see, this is how things turned out."
Song Ruilong took the black silk and said to Tie Chong: "Immediately call Miss Zhou's personal maid here."
Tie Chong hadn't figured out what Song Ruilong asked Zhou Tianxiang's personal maid to do, but he didn't ask too much, and soon called Zhou Tianxiang's personal maid Pan Cuilian over.
After Pan Cuilian saw Song Ruilong, she didn't even dare to raise her head, and immediately knelt on the ground and said, "Master, I don't know anything, I'm just a little maid."
Song Ruilong said in a soothing tone: "What's your name?" How long have you been in Zhouyuan? ”
Pan Cuilian replied 1510: "The people's girl's name is Pan Cuilian, nicknamed Xiaolian, since my young lady was three years old, I have been following my young lady very much."
Song Ruilong said: "You and your young lady can be said to be like sisters, so this county asks you, now that your young lady has been killed, don't you want to avenge your young lady?"
Pan Cuilian suddenly became bold and said, "Yes, of course I want to avenge my young lady, but I don't know who that person is?" I don't know why he killed my young lady. ”
After Song Ruilong showed the love letter to Pan Cuilian, he said, "Do you know whose love letter it is?"
Pan Cuilian said in surprise: "No, no, it won't be him."
Song Ruilong squatted on the ground, with a sharp light in his eyes, looked at Pan Cuilian, and asked sharply, "Who is he?"
Pan Cuilian whispered: "He... He is Fu Bowen, a talented talent in the east of the city. ”
"Fu Bowen, is that him?" Song Ruilong stood up, shook his fan lightly and said.
Pan Cuilian said: "Exactly." Fu Bowen's father is Fu Jubao, the owner of the famous silk village. ”
Song Ruilong still had some impressions of Fu Jubao, and he said slowly: "It's the black-hearted businessman Fu Jubao who is rich and unkind, and everyone wants to eat his flesh and pick his skin, right?"
Pan Cuilian nodded and said, "Exactly." Fu Jubao also got retribution because of his many evils. His family's medicinal herb shop and medicinal herb warehouse were struck by lightning, igniting a raging fire, and the dried medicinal herbs were burned out in an instant, and the medicinal herb shop was also burned to the ground. Fu Jubao lost everything, and with his meager savings, he built a simple house in the east of the city, and Dongshan never got up again. That Fu Jubao also got a serious illness because of this and died. ”
Song Ruilong nodded and said, "I don't know how Fu Bowen walked with your young lady later?"
Pan Cuilian said: "This matter has to start from eighteen years ago. Eighteen years ago, my lord Zhou Shicheng and Fu Jubao took care of each other in business, and the two became brothers of the opposite sex. and also set a baby kiss, just like that, my young lady and Fu Xiucai can be regarded as a beautiful marriage. That Fu Bowen has almost become a frequent visitor to my house, and he has a close past with my young lady, and the relationship between the two is getting deeper and deeper day by day. My lord knew that the two of them were going to get married in the future, so he didn't stop him, and he also encouraged my young lady to accompany Fu Bowen more. Fu Bowen finally lived up to his expectations and was admitted to Xiucai five years ago, which made my master even more excited. But when Fu Jubao's house was burned by the fire, their family, the family was in the middle, and there was no penny, at the beginning, my lord still remembered the old love, funded them with some money, and then alienated them, and after Fu Jubao died of anger, the Fu family and the Zhou family were cut off. My lord personally said to Fu Bowen that if he failed to win the exam, he would not want to enter the Zhou family compound. ”
Song Ruilong shook his fan lightly and nodded, "So that's the case." Then Fu Xiucai must be reluctant to cut off the relationship with your young lady, so he secretly pulled a black silk and climbed into your young lady's boudoir, yes or no? ”
Pan Cuilian glanced at the black satin in Song Ruilong's hand, nodded incessantly, and said, "Yes, yes...... It was my young lady who came up with the idea. At first, Fu Bowen was unwilling, but in the end he couldn't escape the beauty of my young lady, and from then on, whenever it was quiet at night, my young lady would throw a piece of black silk from the big plane tree outside the window, and quietly wait for Fu Xiucai's arrival. ”
Song Ruilong nodded and said, "This county understands." You were afraid that the white satin would attract attention, so you chose the black satin, and Fu Xiucai was also wearing a black night coat when he came, right? ”
Pan Cuilian said "um" a few times and said, "What the eldest master said is good. Fu Xiucai is infatuated with my young lady, and I will not believe that he will kill my young lady if I say anything. ”
Song Ruilong carefully checked Zhou Tianxiang's dead posture again, and said: "Since your young lady is willing to be friendly with Fu Bowen, then there is no need for her to resist, but this murder is likely to be caused by your young lady and Fu Bowen**, so Fu Bowen cannot escape the involvement."
Song Ruilong glanced at Pan Cuilian again and said, "You go down first, if you think of any suspicious person or thing, you must notify the county as soon as possible."
"Yes, the folk girl is retiring!"
After Song Ruilong searched carefully in Zhou Tianxiang's room, he found a piece of jade engraved with a rooster in Hou San's hand, and the male ** crown on the jade was very conspicuous in red color.
The piece of jade had been held in Hou San's hand, and it was very tight, and Song Ruilong also took a lot of effort to take the jade pendant out of Hou San's hand. Song Ruilong thought that the jade pendant was probably the key to solving the case, but now he didn't know what the jade was.
Song Ruilong put the piece of jade in his sleeve, used a piece of white paper to expand the fingerprint on Zhou Tianxiang's neck, put it in the sleeve, and finally searched Zhou Tianxiang's room again, and when he felt that there were no clues, he left Zhou Tianxiang's room.
Next to Zhou Tianxiang's boudoir, there is also a very elegant room, in which Zhang Meixian is comforting Huang Qiulian, who is sad and crying.
Zhang Meixian saw Song Ruilong fanning the fan and stomping square steps in, she immediately got up and greeted her, and said, "Long'er, how did you check Miss Zhou's situation?" Is Miss Zhou's death related to Master Zhou's death? ”
Song Ruilong shook his head and said: "Judging from the current situation that the child has mastered, there is nothing to do with the death of Master Zhou and Miss Zhou's death this week, and they are likely to have arrived here by chance."
Huang Qiulian's crying eyes were swollen, a few strands of white hair on her head and the deep wrinkles on her forehead made her old for more than ten years in an instant.
Huang Qiulian immediately knelt and supported the ground with her knees, walked in front of Song Ruilong, cried bitterly, and said, "Big master, the little girl died unjustly, the big master must be the master of the little girl!"
Song Ruilong picked up Huang Qiulian with both hands and said, "Mrs. Zhou, please get up, I hereby promise you that no matter who kills Miss Zhou, this county will not let him go unpunished."
Huang Qiulian wiped her tears at the same time, stood up, and said, "Then the woman is very grateful to the eldest master."
Song Ruilong said with some sympathy: "Today, Zhou Yuan lost two lives in a row, and the county is really ashamed to be a parent official."
Song Ruilong glanced at Huang Qiulian and asked very seriously: "Mrs. Zhou, just now this county found a black silk in the boudoir where your daughter was killed, and a mysterious love letter, all kinds of reasons add up, this county concluded that your daughter has a personal affair with Fu Bowen in the east of the city, I don't know if Mrs. Zhou knows this?"
Huang Qiulian said in surprise: "Ah! This brute is still pestering my daughter. My lord warned Fu Bowen many times that he would die of that heart, but he didn't expect that this person who had suffered a thousand knives would not give up. It must have been Fu Bowen who killed my daughter. ”
Huang Qiulian was like a wounded sheep just now, but now, she is like a mighty jackal, eager to eat Fu Bowen.
Song Ruilong said: "You don't have to complain and hate Fu Xiucai, then Fu Xiucai can't kill your daughter."
Huang Qiulian's eyes widened and asked, "Why are you so sure?"
Song Ruilong frowned slightly and said, "Because your daughter is willing to get along with Fu Bowen." And the idea of pulling the black silk from under the plane tree, climbing through the window, and getting into Zhou Tianxiang's boudoir is also your daughter's idea. Your daughter loves Fu Bowen so much, even if Fu Bowen is a brute, he will not harm your daughter. ”
Huang Qiulian sobbed and said, "This is strange, then who killed my daughter?" If Hou San killed my daughter, then Hou San should still be alive. ”
Song Ruilong looked straight ahead, thoughtful, and said, "This county thinks that the person who killed Hou San and the person who killed your daughter are the same person. This man is so good at his light that he can fly into your daughter's boudoir without the help of a sycamore tree. ”
Huang Qiulian said excitedly: "Then who is this person, do you already know it in your heart?"
Song Ruilong shook his head and said: "At present, the county can't be sure who this murderer is, but the county believes that there will be a result soon." If Mrs. Zhou wants us to solve the case as soon as possible, please ask Mrs. Zhou to think about whether your family officials have behaved abnormally recently. ”
A strange look appeared on Huang Qiulian's face, and Song Ruilong immediately asked, "Did Mrs. Zhou think of something?" If so, please tell the county, and the county will catch your husband's murderer as soon as possible. ”
Huang Qiulian said: "Isn't the murderer of my husband Zhao Xuetao?" My lord died in her bed, what else is there to judge here, just arrest her and use the big punishment to see if she admits it or not. ”
Song Ruilong was a little angry, and said: "Whether Zhao Xuetao is a murderer or not, the county will judge, now you can tell me if there are any unusual things that have happened in Zhou Yuan in the recent period."
Huang Qiulian was a lot more honest, she thought for a moment, her eyes lit up, and said, "There is one thing, I don't know if it has anything to do with the death of the master?" The women did not dare to speak. ”
Song Ruilong pondered: "What dare not be said, your master is dead, the deceased is the greatest, and it is what we should do to be able to make the deceased blind under the Nine Springs and bring the murderer to justice."
Huang Qiulian said again and again: "Yes, yes...... That's what the adults said. For the sake of my husband, I will tell the eldest master about the abnormality of the master three days ago. ”
