Master Qiao sat in the carriage and sighed for a long time, and the henchman on the side still seemed to be a little hesitant: "Master, have we really moved the main store business of the carriage and horse shop to the capital?" ”

The powerful people in the capital are everywhere, and I'm afraid this business is not easy to do!

Of course, this is not easy to do is also for others, the master's business talent is the only thing he has seen in his life, and the word "business" has never been a trouble for the master.

"I've thought about it." Master Qiao rubbed the jade wrench on his thumb and said, "The Wei's Horse Farm on the outskirts of Chang'an has produced the best horses and horses in Dachu, and our carriage and horse shop can cooperate with the Wei's Horse Farm, and there is hope for this business." After a pause, Master Qiao said again, "Besides, I have almost done all the business on the side, and it is easy for Mo'er to take over, there are a few stewards to watch, no matter how stupid he is, he will not lose the ancestral business of the family, but this carriage and horse business needs to be developed, this Mo'er really can't do it, and only the master and I can go in person." ”

The steward breathed a sigh of relief: he said, when did his master become so timid? In the final analysis, I went to the capital for business, not to avoid anyone.

"Of course," Master Qiao's voice paused for a moment and sounded again, "It's just by the way, the main thing is to go to the capital, it's better to stay away from her." ”

Before, he had offended her a lot.

Out of sight is pure, without him dangling in front of her eyes, she has seen too much Mo'er, so she naturally doesn't hate the Qiao family.

The steward was stunned for a while: the master was really afraid of her, and the carriage and horse business was just incidental?

"Master thinks that this time the Fang family is more auspicious?" The steward asked.

"Anyway, it's not very good," Master Qiao thought for a while, wiped the sweat on his forehead and said, "The old lady of the Fang family almost sold her to a fool as a daughter-in-law, it's no wonder that she is such a stingy person who doesn't retaliate." ”

……

……

Although the notice of the government only said that the old case was re-investigated, and some key human and material evidence were not released to the public, there were many gossip that the people with various miscellaneous relatives were official errands, so on the eve of the trial of the Fang family's case, there were already many people who knew that the case had passed.

On the day of the trial, there was a long queue at the entrance of the government office, and people who rushed to hear the news could be seen everywhere.

There are also many teahouses and taverns that make people come early to occupy a good seat, just to watch this interrogation.

Zhen Shiyuan was startled when he saw it from a distance, "Such a posture can only be compared to the Qiao family and the Fang family who led people to gather at the gate of the mansion to fight that day." ”

Qiao Ran was in the backyard of the government at this time, and Hongdou was running around excitedly with Pei Qingqing.

"Miss, aren't you going to see it?" She said excitedly, "Lord Zhen allowed us to audit!" ”

Qiao Ran shook her head: "There's nothing to see here. ”

She is already very familiar with the whole case, and what she is waiting for in the backyard of this mansion is not the result of the trial, but how the people of the Xiuwang Mansion will act after the trial.

According to sources, people from the Xiuwang Mansion will arrive in Jinling later today, and the case should be heard by then.

She was waiting for this.

However, compared to her, Hongdou and Pei Qingqing, and even Qiao Shu rarely showed a little bit of wanting to listen, so Qiao Ran allowed them to listen.

At noon, Zhen Shiyuan ascended to the hall on time.

Listening to the "mighty" sound from the front yard, and the exclamations from time to time, Qiao Ran sat quietly under the tree in the backyard, shaking the fan in her hand and drinking tea leisurely.

When it was time to arrive, I saw Hongdou, Pei Qingqing and Qiao Shu coming back with ugly faces.

"So fast?" Qiao Ran was a little surprised.

This case is very complicated, and the people are so concerned, Zhen Shiyuan will definitely not be able to close the case hastily, he will definitely say it in great detail, and his promotion is imminent, so he can't be sloppy at this time.

Among them, there is also the Qiu family's lawsuit against the Fang family for murder and seizure of the house, thinking about it, it can't be over in just one hour, why did these people come back now?

"Miss," Azuki retched, covering her mouth, "I'm going to throw up for a while." ”

Qiao Shu also ran away with a white face covering his mouth.

It was Pei Qingqing, although her face was not very good-looking, she still sat down beside her and took a sip of tea.

"What's going on?" Qiao Ran asked.

Pei Qingqing's little face wrinkled, and said: "That Fang Li clan's thirty-five years of murderous methods made people almost vomit out the breakfast in their stomachs, and many people in front of the hall vomited. ”

"Huh?" Qiao Ran was a little surprised.

Pei Qingqing rubbed her stomach and snorted: "That weird guy said that those bones were boiled. ”

This one...... Qiao Ran nodded: "There are indeed rumors that the aroma of boiling broth came from Old Madam Fang's room late at night. ”

"It was that Fang Li who killed someone and wanted to hide the corpse. It was the height of summer, and the bones were rotten, so they boiled them to separate the flesh and bones, and the bones were hidden, and the meat was taken out and fed to the dogs. Pei Qingqing said with a twitch at the corner of her mouth, and seemed to be a little disgusted, "She didn't eat people, but she was almost like eating people." ”

"After the incident thirty-five years ago, several mothers-in-law and family members around this Li family died innocently, but they still left a witness, and it was the county order of Yuhang that hid the witness." She said, "That strange trick also said a bunch of things that everyone didn't understand, but in short, it confirmed this technique. ”

The more Pei Qingqing's little face turned white: "It's really outrageous." ”

It is really not bad to say that Old Madam Fang is a monster that eats people, and the rumors are by no means groundless.

A-Niang is right, what has always been more terrifying than demons and monsters is the human heart.

"Anyway, the old lady of the Fang family can't escape, he didn't do it, but he is also an insider, but several sons may not know, and the Qiu family bites very tightly," Pei Qingqing said, "Everyone is watching while spitting." ”

Still spitting and watching! Qiao Ran silently took a sip of tea: some can't imagine such a scene.

Pei Qingqing and the others didn't go to the front to look again, and when it was close to the unitary hour, they heard the sound of retreat in front of them, and Qiao Ran stood up, she wanted to ask about the result.

"After killing so many people, there is no escaping the death penalty." Pei Qingqing thought about it seriously and said, "Ling Chi is not too much. ”

Nowadays, the laws of Dachu, ordinary cases, as long as they do not involve such a major crime as rebellion, will not reach the point of punishing the nine clans. The set of even sitting has been abolished in Dachu.

Therefore, in addition to Old Madam Fang, there is probably only one Old Madam Fang who will be implicated. Several masters of the Fang family, who were not born at that time, were spared this incident.

"I don't think it's too much to sentence." Pei Qingqing frowned her little face, leaned over and asked her, "Is Ling Chi the most ruthless death sentence?" ”

Qiao Ran spread her hands: "I haven't paid attention to the torture, but now I'm afraid that someone will intervene and let this old woman escape to death." ”

"Who?" Pei Qingqing was puzzled when she heard this, "After killing so many people, can you still escape to death?" ”

Qiao Ran heard a commotion in front of her, mixed with the sound of horses' hooves neighing, and she walked forward: "People should come, I'll take a look." ”
