"Oh? Master has something to ask. ”

Lord He has no objections.

Zong Jiyuan turned around and came to Xinnian, staring at her for a while, feeling that she really didn't seem to be making a gesture, Fang Dao,

"Xinnian, let me ask you, how did you start conspiring with Madame Hu in the first place?"

"Ah, my ......"

Seeing Zong Jiyuan in men's clothing, his reaction was exactly the same as Hu Shifa's, and he was stunned before he began to answer,

"More than two years ago, Mrs. Hu took her servants to the Temple of Literature to make incense, and when the little woman saw her, she knew that she was from a big family, and she had the heart to make friends. Unexpectedly, Madame was surprisingly easy-going, and after a few conversations, she became acquainted. Soon after, Mrs. Hu said to me that she wanted to take a few concubines for her son, and asked the little woman to pay attention to the girls of the same age, preferably from poor and helpless families...... It was also because of greed that the little woman agreed to her......"

"I see."

Zong Jiyuan sighed softly and asked again,

"So, how many girls have you looked for for her, do you remember?"

"Remember, remember, there are nine of them."

The mind replied in a hurry.

That's really the case-

The real mastermind in this case should be the second lady of the Hu house.

In fact, from the very beginning, Hu Shifa has always talked about his "mother", why didn't he notice this detail?

Annoyed in his heart, Zong Jiyuan stared at her again,

"Xinnian, let me ask you again, according to what Hu Shifa said, do you really not know about the girls who were returned?"

"Little woman swears to God, I really don't know, and I've never heard of it......"

As he spoke, he kowtowed again and again.

Zong Jiyuan also ignored her anymore, turned around and returned to Master He and said,

"My lord, it was the negligence of the students who didn't notice Mrs. Hu......"

"Don't say that,"

Master He naturally understood the truth from it, raised his hand to stop her, and said,

"If it weren't for your intelligence, master, this official would not have been able to get Miss Yang back so quickly."

"But ......"

Zong Jiyuan still felt a little guilty.

Master He smiled and patted her shoulder and said in a low voice,

"It's okay, let's catch the real murderer together, okay?"

"Okay."

Listening to Lord He's comfort, Zong Jiyuan immediately regained her calm and alert demeanor, and turned around and stood beside Lord He.

When he saw that he had almost asked, Lord Ho commanded,

"Come on, put your mind in prison for the time being, and judge it at a later date."

"Huh!"

Two of the officers agreed, dragging their minds down and putting them in prison.

In fact, the other officers heard the inquiry in the hall just now, and they heard it very clearly. At this time, Diao Sanlang, who was standing at the front of the queue, couldn't help it anymore and said,

"My lord, in fact, it is, Shicai is in the Hu house, we didn't find any Mrs. Hu, she should not be at home, so the master didn't ......"

"The official knows,"

I knew very well in my heart that Diao Saburo was defending the little master, Lord He couldn't help but smile secretly, and at the same time he was happy that everyone could be so united, and turned his head to look at Zong Jiyuan,

"Since she is not at home, it is better to wait for her to come back until she is caught. By the way, Ji Yuan, what do you think should be done? ”

"The student's opinion is yes、It's better not to startle the snake,"

Zong Jiyuan's brain has not been idle, and he quickly thought about countermeasures, and when he saw that the adult asked, he said,

"Although this Hu Shifa is a bastard, he is not a serious crime, and it would be a blessing if he could change his evil and return to the right from now on. It is better to punish him, teach him some lessons, and let him go back, so as not to cause more panic in the Hu house, and secondly, to declare to the outside world that the case is closed, which can confuse that Mrs. Hu, and then we will send people to secretly ambush her, and arrest her as soon as she returns. ”

"It's a good idea,"

Lord He nodded in agreement, and then commanded,

"Bring Hu Shifa back to the front of the hall."

In this way, this Young Master Hu was escorted to the lobby for the second time, and after kneeling there and kowtowing, he still trembled.

Lord He was shocked,

"Hu Shifa, are you guilty?!"

"Small, villainous ......"

At this time, Hu Shifa didn't know what to say, and only the sentence "confession" remained.

Lord He smiled secretly in his heart, thinking that it would be better to scare him, so he said coldly,

"Guilty? Are you really convicted? Tell you, your crime of robbing the people's girls is death, and you don't need to report it and wait for the execution after the autumn, you can be executed immediately, do you know about it?! ”

"The villain knows...... Yes?! ”

didn't expect that he had committed the crime of "cutting off and deciding", Hu Shifa was so frightened that he was about to cry.

"Great, great, great, my lord, spare my life! The villain doesn't dare anymore......"

When the servants on both sides saw his ridiculous appearance, they didn't dare to be happy, so they covered their mouths and endured it.

Knowing that this time the fire was almost there, Lord He pretended to sigh and said,

"Hu Shifa, you were originally guilty of an unforgivable crime, but someone interceded for you."

"Yes, yes? I don't know who it is? ”

This Hu Shifa is indeed very simple, and his eyes suddenly raised his head with gratitude.

Lord He smiled, raised his hand and gestured to the side,

"It's Lord Bo of this county, that is, Zong Jiyuan, Grandmaster."

"Oh!"

I don't know why, I heard that it was Zong Jiyuan who begged for him, Hu Shifa's eyes turned red, and he kowtowed to her dignifiedly.

"Thank you for your great kindness."

"Actually, don't thank me, look up and see who this is."

Zong Jiyuan still said in a lukewarm tone.

Hu Shifa turned his head to look in the direction she was pointing, and saw the three girls who expressed their willingness to stay in Hu Mansion standing there, stunned,

"She, they ......"

"yes, it's these three girls,"

Zong Jiyuan nodded and said,

"If it weren't for them saying a lot of good things about you in front of this master, this master wouldn't have interceded for you here, so remember, these three girls are your real benefactors, and you have to treat them well in the future."

"Yes, yes......"

Hu Shifa replied "yes", but the look of horror on his face remained unabated.

Master He and Zong Jiyuan glanced at each other and nodded secretly, before they slapped the stunned wood again,

"Hu Shifa, now that you have forgiven the death penalty and the living crime, listen carefully to the verdict of the official."

"The villain is ......"

Hu Shifa's eyes were closed, and he almost hid his head underground.
