Chapter 0083 Xu Wuzhi
Wu Ruolan originally only vaguely knew a little, but after listening to Li Yuanfeng's words, she completely understood, her heart was full of despair, no wonder no one dared to write a statement for her, is it so intolerable for her daughter to sue her father?
Before Li Yuanfeng's words were finished, Li Moyi shouted and scolded, "Brother Yuanfeng, why are you trying to fool other girls with something that can be said but not said, and besides, what kind of scribbles are you writing, I can't read a word, can't you write a little more properly?" β
Li Yuanfeng was so angry that he almost fainted, his Song Zheng font was square, it was a few years of hard practice, and it turned out to be a graffiti in the other party's mouth, and he was also angry for a while, presumably he patiently explained the law just now, I'm afraid he didn't listen to it.
Wu Ruolan was amused by the two people in front of her in the infinite loss, and after a blink of an eye, she lowered her eyes in disappointment, ready to accept the tragic fate, but heard Li Moyi say: "Isn't it a daughter suing her father?" Listen to your grievances, his words are really distorted and ugly, look at my regular letters, I will write this paper for you! β
Wu Ruolan looked at him seriously in surprise, and as soon as Li Mo nodded at her, she was about to pick up the pen and start writing.
Wu Ruolan said softly, it turned out that this little girl had been engaged to someone since she was a child, and yesterday's wedding was approaching, so she went to her husband's house to visit first, but something happened at this look.
The little girl hasn't passed the door yet, her father dislikes the family she is engaged to, and wants to withdraw from the marriage, her husband's family naturally does not agree, her father actually found someone to break her fiancΓ©'s leg, her fiancΓ© is now lying on the bed and can't move, the old lady has a hidden disease, so angry that she vomits blood and can't afford to be sick, her fiancΓ©'s family is so poor that no one cares, and it is difficult to sue, she resolutely ran away from home after hearing about it, combed the hair of ordinary people, put on ordinary clothes, and asked for justice for her future husband.
Seeing Wu Ruolan's sad but still resolute eyes, Li Mo couldn't help but lift the brush, but ......
Li Moyi's hesitation was seen by Wu Ruolan, and the constant disappointment tormented her heart, her eyes were red, and she said sadly: "Father is fierce and domineering, I'm afraid that I will be arrested halfway home, and my husband has no one to take care of him and no money for treatment, so I'll wait for him on Huangquan Road first." β
Wu Ruolan's bitter words startled Li Mo one by one, and she raised her eyes and said, "What's the hurry, aren't I thinking of a way?" With that, he picked up his pen and began to write.
"Brother Li, you have to bear the consequences of this job, you have to think twice......" Li Yuanfeng shook his head and looked at it, seeing that the other party was still firm, he couldn't help but remind again: "Also, the paper should not be too long, limited to two hundred words, concise and to the point." β
"Wu Ruolan, a folk girl, sued her father Wu Wen............
β¦β¦ The seventh day of November in the 19th year of the year"
After a long time, it's finally done!
Li Mo finished writing the paper one by one, and the strange and crooked words were not in Wu Ruolan's eyes, she was overjoyed, and Li Yuanfeng said again on the side: "Even if this paper is really handed over, the mansion master still doesn't know whether he will accept it, alas...... The three outlines and five constants must not be disobeyed, difficult, really difficult! β
"Three platforms and five constants? Well...... The father is the son, and the husband is the wife...... On one side is the father and on the other side is the husband...... Well, good! Li Moyi suddenly seemed to think of something, picked up the pen again, added a few words in front of the paper, dried the ink and handed it to Wu Ruolan and said, "Then you won't be afraid, let the mansion master have a headache!" β
Wu Ruolan looked at those words with tears in her eyes, and Li Yuanfeng curiously stretched his neck to read it for her: "If you don't sue your husband, you will hurt your father, and the two are in a dilemma, please decide...... Wonderful...... It's really wonderful! β
Wu Ruolan left with full expectation, Li Mo lowered his head and checked a piece of broken silver in his hand, Wu Ruolan gave him one or two silver for manuscript fees, which is equivalent to 1,000 copper coins, according to the price of Anqiu Town, you can buy about five buckets of rice, one bucket is about ten to twelve catties, and five buckets are fifty to sixty catties of rice.
"In this leisure moment when there are no demons to descend, you can fill your stomach if you have nothing to write a piece of paper......" Li Moyi was thinking about it, when he saw a man of medium stature rushing towards him shouting.
"Yuanfeng, Yuanfeng, it's not good, Wuzhi has committed a crime, the guards in the governor's mansion are arresting people, Lin Wei's kid doesn't know what to do, he said that he saw that you returned to Anqiu Town yesterday, and asked me to come to you immediately." The man ran up to Li Yuanfeng and said breathlessly.
Li Yuanfeng is a scholar who is rushing to take the exam, specializing in the imperial examination, he has already taken the exam once a few years ago, he has not been admitted and has no face to return to his hometown, he has been out for a few years, and has been to many nameless towns and villages, but he has only settled down in this Anqiu town, and has made a few old friends, the person in front of him is named Huang Zhongshi, and Xu Wuzhi and Lin Wei are both friends of Li Yuanfeng, and the three of them also helped Li Yuanfeng a lot, and they had a happy gathering not long ago.
Li Yuanfeng couldn't help but be shocked when he heard the news, he stood up abruptly and asked, "What did Brother Xu do?" It actually alarmed the guards of the official residence......"
Huang Zhongshi hurriedly said: "It's a death!" They all said that the Xu Wuzhi brothers poisoned his old man to death in order to fight for the family property, and his sister-in-law sued the governor's mansion, and the mansion master and the accompanying master just brought a few guards over to get people, Lin Wei took the time to call me to come to you, Yuanfeng, what should we do? Brother Xu Wuzhi wants to divide the family property, but he will never harm anyone! β
"Brother Li, I have something important to do, so I'll go out first."
"Let's go!" Before the words fell, Li Yuanfeng didn't bring anything, and ran towards Xu Wuzhi's house with Huang Zhongshi along the road.
Hearing the conversation between the two and seeing Li Yuanfeng's rare anxiety, Li Moyi was interested, and at the end of his leisure, he silently followed behind the two.
β¦β¦
Xu Wuzhi's father is called Xu Xiong, a cloth merchant, and he is also a rare rich family in Anqiu Town, Xu Wuzhi's eldest brother is named Xu Shan, seven or eight years older than Xu Wuzhi, and he began to help his father run a cloth shop business a few years ago, and he is also a well-known business rookie in Anqiu Town.
And Xu Wuzhi, the second eldest of the Xu family, has become a gangster on the streets, and these two brothers are the most typical comparison in Anqiu Town, and they are often used as a model by other rich families to educate their children.
In fact, it is no wonder that Xu Wuzhi is the eldest son in this year, and the second is only a junior.
Even if Xu Wuzhi wants to help his father do business, it is difficult, not only is he guarded against thieves by his sister-in-law, but the housekeeper, the account room, and even a sweeping boy dare to give him a look, Xu Wuzhi only hopes to divide the family property as soon as possible, and has the capital to do business by himself, since he turned eighteen last year, he has been arguing for half a year, but when it comes to harming people's lives, I'm afraid this kid is not so bold, and he is not so disobedient, right?
"Oh!! I'm wronged!! β
The front of the Xu family's compound was already full of people, and only a man was heard crying out from afar, and everyone was talking about it, but nine times out of ten, they were scolding Xu Wuzhi for being a bastard.
"Get out of the way!" Huang Zhongshi is a well-known villain in Anqiu Town, he has been domineering since he was a child, and he raised his eyebrows and shouted, and everyone saw that Huang Zhongshi was coming, and immediately got out of the way.
Li Mo followed the two of them and walked to the inner layer of the circle, only to see that the gate of the Xu family was guarded by several guards, and there was a young man next to him whose hands and feet were shackled, kneeling there crying and shouting grievances.
And the little guard on the side was dressed in soap-colored clothes, carrying a water and fire stick, frowning and guarding Xu Wuzhi's side, this person was Lin Wei.
Beside the little guard, there was also a man in a sky blue brocade robe, who looked like a child of a rich family.
"Lin Wei!" Huang Zhongshi snorted, Lin Wei looked over, and couldn't help but lift his spirits when he saw Li Yuanfeng, at this moment, a few people came out of the gate of the Xu family, first one was the head of Anqiu Town, the head of the Song Mansion, then the master of Anqiu Town, Guo Baotang, and finally followed by a woman dressed in a beautiful dress, holding a little girl of three or four years old.
"This rebellious son who should be cut with a thousand knives actually poisoned his father, my husband is not in charge of the overall situation at home, and it is inconvenient for me to show up as a woman, Lord Song must be the master of my Xu family......"
Xu Shan's wife Xu Liushi cried and said, her face was full of sadness, her right hand pinched the sleeve and wiped it at the corner of her eyes, crying and crying with a resentful look, her daughter followed behind timidly pulling her long skirt, and her eyes were full of tears.
Li Moyi had just seen a woman who was ashamed and wronged to sue her father, at this time, no matter how you look at the woman in front of her, she felt that she was crying too fakely, although Li Moyi was not sure if this young man named Xu Wuzhi would do the stupid thing of poisoning his father, but he could be sure that this woman was tired behind her back.
Li Mo quickly calculated with his head, this kind of ordinary people are harmful, unlike Yang Liu'er before, usually just for profit, so who is the most beneficial for the old man of the Xu family to be gone?
β¦β¦
At this time, the guard Lin Wei secretly kicked Xu Wuzhi on the ground, Xu Wuzhi followed his gaze to see Li Yuanfeng and the others, and his tearful face was happy, but Li Yuanfeng glared at him, and crooked his mouth to the Song Governor, Xu Wuzhi was a smart person, and immediately took a few steps towards the Song Governor, fell to the ground and shouted: "Lord Song, I was wronged, my father has promised me to divide the family property, how can I poison him at this time!" Someone must have framed me, and my lord wants to call the shots for me! β
"You rebel still dare to quibble, Lei Gongteng has been found under the pillow in your room, such poisonous things have been obtained, and now the evidence is ironclad! You wait to be escorted to the execution ground! Guo Beitang flew up and kicked Xu Wuzhi to the ground, and said coldly.
"That's it, if you dare to poison your father, you won't be hated by such a rebel with a thousand knives!" A group of people chimed in.
"Brother Yuanfeng, what should I do, you are talking!" Huang Zhongshi whispered anxiously.
At this moment, Li Moyi stared at the Xu Liu clan tightly, as if he had discovered something, a sneer appeared on the corner of his mouth, and he stepped forward to comfort the two and said, "Brother Yuanfeng, don't worry, wait and see......"
Hearing the sound, Huang Zhongshi turned his head and saw that it was the young man who had just set up a stall with Li Yuanfeng, "Brother Yuanfeng, who is this?" β
"Don't talk about that yet, it's the most important thing to solve this matter right now." After a pause, Li Yuanfeng turned his head to look at Li Moyi, "Brother Li, what you just said to wait, but if you wait for anyone else, you will be taken away, Lei Gongteng is a highly poisonous thing, finding Lei Gongteng is equivalent to getting physical evidence, if it weren't for the completion of the autopsy and carrying the body back to the mortuary, the guards would have already imprisoned the person back." β
Xu Wuzhi continued to cry, and the guard Lin Weiyi on the side also looked at Li Moyi's side, not knowing what the other party's idea was, and they were all at a loss.
didn't know that Li Moyi's eyes were searching in the crowd, and he asked casually: "...... Do you recognize the guy in the sky blue brocade on the other side? β
Huang Zhongshi's face was dazed, "This brother just came to Anqiu Town not long ago, you may not know very well, that guy is the famous gentleman Song Yan in Anqiu Town, known as Song Daguanren, this person has a thick family background, and is related to the head of Song Mansion, on weekdays, it is a character who dominates one side, this guy has a Spring Festival Courtyard at home, and he is rich and likes to be in the limelight, and almost everyone in the entire Anqiu Town knows it." β
"Oh......" Li Mo nodded.
At this moment, a pretended figure walked out of the gate of the Xu Mansion and bowed his hand to the Song Mansion Chief, "My lord, the deceased Xu Xiong's face is blue and black, his face is thin, his eyes are sunken, his lips are chapped, his skin is wrinkled, there are no scars on his body, and the deceased's mouth and vomit have a garlic smell, and it becomes dark under the silver needle test, according to which the poison can be certified as Tripterygium wilfordii, and it has been verified that the deceased was indeed poisoned to death!" β
The onlookers were coaxing, and the head of the Song Mansion hummed lightly, "The human and material evidence are all there, come on, carry the corpse and escort Xu Wuzhi back to the official residence with me!" β
Several guards took a door panel and lifted Xu Xiong's body out with a sackcloth, and seeing that Xu Wuzhi was about to be escorted away, Xu Liu's face couldn't help but show a hint of joy, and a pair of peach blossom eyes quickly glanced in a certain direction.
"Slow !!"
Li Mo shouted and stepped forward, he had already secretly moved to Xu Liu's side not far away, this roar was running towards her, only to make Xu Liu's whole body tremble violently, and he almost collapsed on the spot.
Everyone's eyes fell on Li Moyi, Guo Baitang glared at Li Moyi, and shouted: "What are you a scholar making a noise in public, don't study poetry and books at home to prepare for next year's scientific examination, what kind of hero are you here, now that the human and material evidence are there, and the criminal evidence is conclusive, do you still want to stand up for him?" β
In ancient times, the common people were afraid of seeing officials, even if it was just a mere lieutenant, they could grovel, Li Moyi held his head high in front of a seventh-grade governor, and the well-informed Guo Beitang also unconsciously restrained the three-point official authority.
When Guo Baitang was stunned for a moment, Li Moyi had already walked up to the silent Governor of Song, and said loudly: "Xiaomin has seen Lord Song, Lord Song, this so-called criminal evidence is conclusive, in my opinion, it is all that pretending to be framed, this Xu Wuzhi is not a fool, why don't you deal with the remaining poison after poisoning in time, even if you want to hide it, hide it in a good place, isn't it self-destruction to hide under your pillow?" Besides, if he wanted to compete for the family property, he wouldn't be stupid enough to choose to poison at this time, and if he wanted to poison, he would have to wait for the eldest brother to come home and reunite with the family. β
After a pause, he counted with one hand, and Li Mo snapped his fingers, "One, two, three, four...... Xu Xiong, Xu Shan, Xu Liu, and this little girl, if they want to swallow and rob the family property alone, they will naturally poison them together, how can there be a reason to poison only the father? Even if his father is dead, there is still the eldest brother, the father is gone, the eldest brother is the father, and the matter of separating the family is handled by the eldest brother, Xu Wuzhi still can't get any benefits as the second child, so thinking about it, it's not that Xu Wuzhi's head is clamped, or there is something else in this matter! β
"Yes, although Xu Wuzhi is a bit of a fool, how could he be such a clever baby to do such a stupid thing?"
"Yes, yes, Xu Wuzhi, this kid hasn't had any big ambitions since he was a child, and his father got him this name, but he is lazy, people are not stupid, and he has no benefits to poison his own father, he will never be able to do such a ridiculous thing." There were many people who recognized Xu Wuzhi among the onlookers, and after listening to Li Moyi's words, they woke up like a dream, and nodded their heads and whispered to each other.
Although Governor Song was in a hurry to close the case, he was not mediocre, he heard this, his face was a little surprised, and he sneered: "That scholar, you keep saying that it is not Xu Wuzhi's poison, you have Xu certificate?" Human life is at stake, you don't want to talk in public! β
Li Moyi smiled calmly, "It's not a hurry to find evidence, the most important thing at the moment is to save people, wait for me to bring Old Man Xu back to life...... It is naturally clear who the poisoner is! β
