"Brother Du, come, have another drink!"

Gu Ming smiled and poured a glass of wine, trying to ease the atmosphere as much as possible.

After drinking a few glasses in a row, Du Ronghui became a little drunk, and began to talk endlessly.

One day, Brother Yang found that Bai Ling's cheeks were a little red and swollen, and after repeated questioning, Bai Ling finally cried and explained the reason.

It turned out that Zhu Dazhuang heard some rumors outside, and couldn't help but be jealous, and as soon as his wife came home, he slapped her twice indiscriminately, and scolded her for being shameless.

Bai Ling felt aggrieved, so he angrily said that he would not go to the Yang Mansion to work, and it would save people from gossiping.

As a result, Zhu Dazhuang did not follow, because he knew very well in his heart that if his wife did not go to Yang Mansion to work, not only would she lose her salary, but she would have to pay the land rent at that time, wouldn't she have to live a hard life again?

When Brother Yang heard what Bai Ling said, and thought that she was beaten for no reason, he was naturally quite angry in his heart, and immediately said that he was going to find Zhu Dazhuang to theorize.

Bai Ling hurriedly grabbed Brother Yang and begged bitterly, saying that this kind of thing is difficult to explain clearly, and it will only get darker and darker, attracting more gossip.

Looking at her pear blossoms with rain and her pitiful appearance, Brother Yang was distressed for a while, and couldn't help but pull her into his arms and comfort her softly.

Perhaps, Bai Ling's heart at that time was also full of sadness and grievances. Perhaps, he also has feelings for Brother Yang, in short, he didn't break away, just snuggled into Brother Yang's arms and sobbed quietly......

The beauty is in her arms, sad and sad, Brother Yang can't help but ...... for a while"

"Ahem~"

Hearing this, Gu Ming couldn't help but cough dryly.

"Brother Gu, things are not going the way you imagined.

Brother Yang was just a moment of pity and kissed Bai Ling. Since then, there has been some kind of breakthrough in the relationship between the two, like lovers, but Brother Yang finally sticks to the bottom line.

Although it can't be called anything out of affection and courtesy, the contact between the two can be regarded as point-to-point. ”

Gu Ming couldn't help but ask, "These things...... Did Yang Juren tell you personally? ”

Du Ronghui nodded solemnly: "Yes, it is indeed what Brother Yang told me personally, and there is no lie from Du." ”

"Could it be that Yang Juren is hiding some details? For example, sometimes I don't control my ......"

Du Ronghui shook his head and said in an affirmative tone: "No, I believe that what Brother Yang said is the truth. Since he would tell me something so secret, there was no need to hide anything.

Importantly...... Brother Yang...... He has a physical defect ......"

Upon hearing this, Gu Ming was a little surprised: "Physiological defects? Brother Du meant that Yang Juren was ...... Don't lift? ”

Du Ronghui drank a glass of wine again, sighed and said: "This is an extremely secret matter, involving Brother Yang's reputation, if it is not a special situation, I will not reveal it to anyone until I die."

Brother Yang knew that he had this problem before he got married, which is why he studied medicine part-time and wanted to cure his own problem.

Unfortunately, it has not been effective.

Later, he didn't know where to find out that there was a wandering Langzhong who was good at this, so he quietly asked me to go with him to find this Langzhong.

We searched for more than a month and finally found each other.

After being diagnosed by that Lang Zhong, he said that Brother Yang's problem was born and there was no way to cure it.

Brother Yang begged hard, promised a lot of money, and finally found a home remedy......

However, this home remedy is a method of treating the symptoms but not the root cause, and dispensing medicine according to the home remedies can make Brother Yang humane, but only once, and the interval is not less than one month, otherwise it is easy to hurt the body.

Even so, this is already a lifesaver for Brother Yang, so that he can be a man again......"

"That's ...... so"

Gu Ming was embarrassed.

He could see that Du Ronghui was not lying, it was all from his heart.

Then, Yang Chongshan should be sincere about everything he said, after all, he has confided in such a secret matter, what else is there to hide?

If he really had a deeper relationship with Bai Ling, wouldn't it be more worth showing off?

This is also a common problem of men, not to mention a less complete man like Yang Chongshan.

"But Brother Du, if you tell me that these secret things may not play a role in overturning the case, they will become some unfavorable evidence."

Du Ronghui smiled bitterly: "I know, it's just that I'm just talking about this for a foreshadowing......"

Foreshadowing?

Gu Ming was stunned.

Sure enough, there is a secret behind this strange case.

"If you want to talk about this case, you have to mention a woman, that is, Brother Yang's wife Lan Cuihua.

Lan Cuihua's family was originally a local wealth in the countryside, and later bought a house in the town and moved her family to live in the town.

This woman is quite scheming, she can judge the situation at a young age, and she took a fancy to Brother Yang soon after moving to the town.

At that time, Brother Yang had already won the show, and he was in high spirits.

Lan Cuihua inquired in many ways, knowing that Brother Yang had a lot of potential, and Brother Yang's family background itself was also good, so she began to take the opportunity to get closer.

To say that this woman also knows a little bit about poetry, coupled with the charm of a small jasper, it also makes Brother Yang a little moved.

It's just that at that time, Brother Yang knew that he had a physical problem, and he never went to the door to propose.

It wasn't until I got the home remedies, and after the test was really effective, I found a matchmaker to propose marriage.

The Lan family naturally has no opinion, after all, Brother Yang has a good family background, and he is quite literate, and he may become an official in high school one day, so this family business is quite smooth.

But what Brother Yang didn't expect was that after getting married, Lan Cuihua seemed to be a different person, and she used to be gentle and gentle, and even a little bit of a female talent.

But she is a snarky, mean, and greedy woman.

A few days after getting married, he began to beat and scold the maids in the house, deducted people's wages at every turn, and also advocated raising the land rent.

This kind of behavior naturally made Brother Yang very unhappy, and the reprimanding made Lan Cuihua cry and make trouble, saying that Brother Yang had lied to her......

The deception she said naturally refers to Brother Yang's physical problems.

Brother Yang wanted to save face, and he was afraid that his subordinates would hear his secret affairs, so he could only swallow his anger. Moreover, the time limit for taking the drug has been shortened somewhat in a nutshell.

At the beginning, that Lang Zhong said that it was best to take it once a month, but Brother Yang changed it to twice, in order to win back the face of some men......"

Gu Ming deeply understands this.

Although the face is empty, it also depends on what kind of face it is.

For men, virility is naturally crucial, and it is not just about face, but about the dignity of men.

Therefore, it is also possible to understand Yang Chongshan's behavior in disregard of Lang Zhong's warnings and risks.

For he knew very well in his heart that if he could not conquer his wife in that respect, he would have no prestige at home.

In short, Brother Yang made every effort to meet his wife's various needs in the spirit of family and prosperity...... At the same time, I also read more diligently.

Later, when she finally won the move, Lan Cuihua was not only happy, but also restrained a little.

But after a long time, after all, the country is still easy to change, and the nature is difficult to change......"

When he said this, Du Ronghui couldn't help but smile bitterly and shook his head and said, "Actually, I really don't want to know about these things, but Brother Yang may be depressed in his heart and uncomfortable in his heart, so he talked to me happily with the strength of wine."

Because he knows that I'm a person who can keep secrets and won't reveal them to anyone......

But who would have thought of today's results? I only sigh that the world is impermanent and unpredictable. ”

Gu Ming's heart moved, and he whispered: "Listening to Brother Du's meaning, isn't it Nalan Cuihua...... Red apricots out of the wall? ”

"Red apricots out of the wall? What do you mean? ”

Unexpectedly, Du Ronghui looked dazed.

Seeing this, Gu Ming suddenly woke up, and it seemed that the metaphor of red apricots coming out of the wall had not yet begun to spread in this world.

So he explained: "Brother Du should have read the poem that the garden is full of spring and can't be closed, and a branch of red apricot comes out of the wall, right?" ”

"Of course I've read it, this is a poem written by Scholar Gu...... Hey...... The garden is full of spring and can't be closed, a branch of red apricot comes out of the wall, and the red apricot comes out of the wall......

Ha, I understand, I understand, Brother Gu is really knowledgeable, this red apricot out of the wall is simply wonderful to use here, extremely wonderful.

Come on, come on, don't you just give Brother Gu a cup! ”

Since then, the deep metaphor of "red apricots out of the wall" has started from Du Ronghui here and slowly spread......

Of course, when Gu Ming saw Du Ronghui's demeanor, he also knew that he had guessed correctly.

Thinking about it, it is calculated that Lan Cuihua is three years younger than Yang Chongshan, she has always been pampered, and she is at the age of tigers and wolves, so it can be understood if you go out of the wall.

The story is getting more and more interesting, and it should be revealed.

After drinking, Du Ronghui continued.

"About two years ago, Lan Cuihua's maiden family welcomed a special guest: Lou Ashu.

This person is a godson of Lan Cuihua's father who was seriously ill in order to change his income, and he is five or six years younger than Lan Cuihua.

Lou Ashu's family is poor, but since Master Lan accepted him as his godson, he naturally has to fund some.

But this kid is not angry, he steals chickens and dogs all day long, and later committed a lawsuit and ran away......

This run has been more than ten years, and the Lan family has almost forgotten him.

Unexpectedly, this kid came back this time, and it was a crow that fell into the water that flew onto the branches, and he became an adjutant of the county outskirts of the garrison.

Later, Brother Yang learned that the reason why this kid developed was because he climbed the garrison of the government office, and it is not clear how he climbed there.

All in all, this kid trembled, and when he went to Master Lan's house, he brought a few subordinates, and he was very majestic.

In this regard, Master Lan was naturally pleasantly surprised, after all, he treated Lou Ashu quite well back then, with such a godson, who would dare to bully their family in the future?

In fact, this kid is not grateful at all, he is nothing more than developed and wants to show off everywhere.

As a result, I didn't know how to look at Lan Cuihua, and the name of my sister and brother was called an intimacy......

At first, Brother Yang didn't think much about it, but he just wanted to make friends with his father-in-law and his wife and find a backer.

But then I realized that something was wrong......

He found that his wife had begun to dress up again, and she was even more seductive than before.

At the same time, I don't pester him anymore, but I used to pinch the time to urge him to decoct medicine...... Now, it seems that the matter has been forgotten.

The important thing is that he always finds excuses to go back to his parents' house, and sometimes he has to stay overnight at his parents' house. Her mother's house is in the town, how much can she do?

So, Brother Yang was suspicious, so he quietly bought a subordinate of his father-in-law's family to inquire, and learned that every time his wife returned to her parents' house, her godbrother was almost also there......

Many doubts finally made Brother Yang realize a reality that made him almost vomit blood: he was afraid that he was given green by the surname Lou.

However, Brother Yang did not have a showdown with Lan Cuihua in the end, but ran to me and got drunk...... While crying, he told me about his pain.

I understand his feelings, after all, if this incident breaks out, his face and his reputation will be completely ruined.

Therefore, he could only endure the humiliation and look for a suitable opportunity to take a break from Lan Cuihua.

And then ...... Brother Yang met Bai Ling.

It was the most painful, the loneliest, and the most dazed time in his heart.

Bai Ling's gentleness and beauty gave him hope again...... knew that Bai Ling had married his wife, but Brother Yang still couldn't extricate himself from liking her......

Later, the tragedy happened.

At that time, when Brother Yang was imprisoned in the county government, I went to see him twice, and he swore to me, saying that he had never had the heart to harm Zhu Dazhuang, let alone drug others.

also said that although he had not seen Zhu Dazhuang's death, he suspected that Zhu Dazhuang had taken the home remedies given to him by You Fanglang.

I was also present at the time, and the man said that he must dispense medicine strictly according to the prescription, and he could not exceed the penny, otherwise he would be worried about his life.

The home remedies...... Lan Cuihua also knows......"

"Oh?" Hearing this, Gu Ming's eyebrows moved: "It means that Lan Cuihua may be the real murderer?" ”

Du Ronghui sighed: "I don't dare to say this, but I also agree with Brother Yang's statement, the cause of Zhu Dazhuang's death is likely to be that someone used that home remedy and prepared a large dose of medicine."

But the problem is that Bai Ling boiled the medicine prepared by Brother Yang at that time, which she boiled with her own hands and fed by herself.

So what's the problem?

Did someone take advantage of Bai Ling, or did someone secretly change the medicine?

Now there is no way to find out all this, and the medicine residue has been taken away by the government as evidence, even if there is a way for them to take it out, it is estimated that it is not the original.

Bai Ling's state is also very bad, it is estimated that she was overpunished, and she is demented, so she will admit her guilt if she is asked to admit her guilt, and she will draw a detention if she is asked to draw a detention......

In other words, we simply cannot find strong evidence to overturn the case.

The only thing I can do is to tell Brother Gu everything I know, hoping that Brother Gu can find traces of spiders and worms. ”

Gu Ming smiled and said: "Actually, I heard you talk about such a big deal, if you want to talk about spider silk, maybe Brother Du and Yang Juren already know it, but there is no evidence."

Since ancient times, there have been many purposes for killing people, but they can be summed up as several reasons such as destroying mouths, fighting for profit, seizing power, and gaining fame.

Zhu Dazhuang is just a tenant from a poor family, what can you get by killing him? Neither famous nor profitable, only a wife with a bit of beauty.

If he dies, his wife can marry again.

In this way, the most suspicious person is Yang Juren, after all, he can still take concubines......"

"Brother Gu, Brother Yang, he can't ......"

"Brother Du, don't worry, I'm just analyzing from the appearance first, Yang Juren and Bai Ling are indeed the most suspicious, otherwise they wouldn't have been taken into custody as soon as possible.

However, from a common sense point of view, Yang Juren is full of poetry and books, so he will not do such a stupid act.

Because this case can be found on his head with a little care.

If it wasn't for him and Bai Ling, it would have been framed by someone designing.

Bai Ling didn't say that if the other party coveted her people, she would not be sentenced to death.

But Yang Juren is different, once he died, he left a lot of family wealth and land, so who is the beneficiary? ”

"Nature is Tian Cuihua......"

"That's right, so we have to open the gap in this woman first."

"Brother Gu, having said that, how easy is it to open a gap from her? The point is that there is no evidence, and this woman has a backer......"

"It doesn't matter, if she is really a murderer, no matter how big her backer is, it is useless. Brother Du might as well accompany him on a trip to meet this woman for a while. ”

……

Soon after, a carriage left the county seat and went straight to the town where Yang Chongshan lived.

At this time, Gu Ming had already changed into a Confucian shirt, and he looked even more extraordinary.

In this way, in Du Ronghui's heart, Gu Ming's identity is even more mysterious.

After all, not everyone can wear Confucian shirts, and according to the laws of the imperial court, only Jinshi are eligible to wear Confucian shirts.

When he arrived at Yang's mansion, Du Ronghui called a maid in the front yard and said, "Trouble to report to Mrs. Yang......

As a result, before he could finish speaking, Yahuan said impatiently: "Madame is unwell, please refuse to see guests!" ”

"Hey, what's the matter with you girl? You don't know me, do you? ”

Du Ronghui often comes to Yang's mansion, how can the people in the mansion not know each other?

"The slave and maid naturally know each other, but the master has an accident and the lady is in a bad mood, so naturally she doesn't want to see the guest."

"Then I can't see her!"

Gu Ming said coldly, then took out a waist card and shook it and put it away, even Du Ronghui didn't see it clearly.

"Go and tell your wife, just say that your master's case is still suspicious, and the government needs to know more about the situation. If she avoids it...... Then you can only take it to the government. ”

"Huh? You...... Are you a government master? ”

"What? Not like? ”

"No, no, no, the slave will go and report to Madame."

As soon as Yahuan heard that it was someone from the government, where did she dare to say more, she turned around and ran away.

As soon as Yahuan left, Du Ronghui couldn't help but look different, and arched his hand: "Brother Gu...... Master Gu...... Is it from the government or from the capital? ”

Gu Ming smiled and waved his hand: "You don't have to ask more about this." ”

He is not pretending, he is a dignified prince, a prince and a teacher, which is even more official than the government.

Sure enough, as soon as the name of the government was mentioned, Lan Cuihua soon appeared......

It's just that when this woman came out, she looked a little untidy, and her face was a little flushed, giving people the feeling of just crawling out of the bed.

"Ahem, ahem......"

While walking, Lan Cuihua pretended to cover her mouth and coughed a few times, but her eyes wandered back and forth between Du Ronghui and Gu Ming.

When she approached, Gu Ming couldn't help frowning......

As soon as this woman appeared, he had some suspicions, and now he was completely sure that this woman was doing the morning clouds and the twilight as the rain.

Obviously, Du Ronghui was also aware of it, and he also frowned.

After all, everyone has come here......

So the question is, Yang Chongshan is in prison, who is this woman with?

To say that although this woman is in her thirties, she has always been pampered and good at maintenance, plus her congenital conditions are good, so she looks like she is in her thirties.

With a pair of watery peach blossom eyes, the whole person looks quite enchanting and mature.

It's no wonder it can attract some wild bees and butterflies.

Lan Cuihua stepped forward to salute, and then made a sad look and asked, "I don't know where this official came from?" ”

"You don't need to know this, this son is because he has obtained some clues that are beneficial to your father-in-law......"

"Huh? What clues? ”

As soon as she heard this, Lan Cuihua couldn't help but lose her color.

No matter how much a person can disguise, sometimes it is inevitable that some instinctive reactions will be revealed.

At this time, the woman was obviously an instinctive reaction, her face looked very surprised, and there was a hint of nervousness in her eyes.

Such a reaction naturally could not escape Gu Ming's eyes.

Moreover, he had already discovered a man who was hiding in the shadows and observing. And this man is 100% the man who stayed in the house with Lan Cuihua before.

As for whether it is Lou Ashu or not, it remains to be verified, after all, Gu Ming doesn't know the other party.

But no matter who the other party was, Gu Ming was already completely sure that there was something wrong with Lan Cuihua......

Not to mention anything else, under normal circumstances, isn't it the surprise and excitement that you should show when you hear that you have the opportunity to overturn the case?

Gu Ming said lightly: "Of course it's an important clue...... But I still need to ask you a few things before I can make a conclusion.

Presumably, Mrs. Yang knows very well in her heart that your father-in-law has been convicted of a capital crime, and this is the only chance to overturn the case for him, so I also ask Mrs. Haosheng to cooperate and tell you everything you know in detail. ”

At this time, Lan Cuihua subconsciously made a move......

She looked back, as if looking for someone.

It's just that he quickly turned back again, and said with a somewhat unnatural expression: "I'm sorry, just standing and talking, I completely forgot the etiquette." You may be seated ......."

Lan Cuihua pointed to the stone bench in the courtyard, and then shouted at Yahuan: "Go make tea!" ”

"Yes!"

Yahuan answered and turned away.

"That...... The concubine came out in a hurry just now, and forgot to take Luo Pa, and asked the two to sit down for a while, and the concubine went to the room to take Luo Pa. ”

"Well, it's okay, you go get it."

Gu Ming raised his hand.

As soon as she turned around, Du Ronghui leaned over and whispered: "That kid surnamed Lou must be here, this woman is simply too shameless and unscrupulous, and she actually ...... in broad daylight."

"Shhhh Don't talk yet! ”

Gu Ming raised his hand and made a silent gesture, followed by a slight gaze.

In fact, he had already secretly used his discerning skills to lock down Lan Cuihua's whereabouts.

Just now, Gu Ming said that there were important clues, and he thought that this woman was a little confused, and he didn't know how to deal with it next, so he made an excuse, saying that he was going to find Luo Pa, but in fact, he went to discuss with someone.

After all, this is a matter of human life, and once she leaks her mouth, the consequences are unimaginable.

Of course, this is exactly what Gu Ming wants.

Although he has many ways to find out the truth, he doesn't even need to come forward himself, just a letter can solve it.

However, being idle is also idle, and this case is also quite interesting, so you might as well look it up.

As expected, as soon as Lan Cuihua entered the backyard, the man who was secretly peeping stood up, and the two quickly hid in the side room and began to discuss secretly......

"Ashu, what should I do? The man said that he was from the government, and said that he had important clues, and said that he was the only chance to overturn the case. ”

"Are you sure it's from the government?"

"I ...... I asked, and I didn't need to know what he said......"

"Who's the other one? Isn't that Du Ronghui? ”

"That's him, he's been running up and down to avenge the dead ghost. That person, wasn't he found by someone surnamed Du? ”

"How do I know? However, the boy did not look very old, but he was dressed in a Confucian shirt...... What is the origin? ”

"Ah Shu, do you think this is a conspiracy surnamed Du? He's looking for someone to pretend to be an official and want to trick me? ”

"Quite possibly...... But we still have to be careful.

In this way, no matter what the other party says or asks, you will follow what we have discussed before, and don't say anything about it......"

A pair of dog men and women muttered and discussed, but they never expected that the content of their conversation would be listened to word for word.

In response to the old saying, people are doing, and the sky is watching!
