Chapter 403: The Source of Jewelry
Yes, however, if you think this person is suspicious, you can actually notify the palace. "The queen is really ugly than crying, your person is not successful, you didn't even report it, let the person go, and dare to say that this is the rule.
"If there is no evidence, I am afraid that there will be too many people to arrest people indiscriminately, which will affect the emperor's reputation." The old man didn't show any timidity at all, and said with a smile.
"Niangniang, this is Lord Wang from the Ministry of Rites." Tang Leng took Lord Wang forward, "The last general just asked, he saw the old layman here yesterday, but insisted, when he left, the old layman was still alive." ”
"But your new in-laws?" The queen hurriedly looked back at Qiao Ye.
Qiao Ye smiled at Lord Wang, and bowed to the queen: "Yes!" ”
"Oh, that's all relatives, too. That, this palace is not asking about the case, this palace just wants to know, why did you come to this master in the middle of the night? The queen nodded hurriedly and smiled at Lord Wang. She wouldn't have asked about the case, she just asked her doubts.
"Xiaguan has set up a spiritual pagoda for several family members here, and I learned that I have been taken care of by this old monk all these years, and over the years, Xiaguan has not made any achievements, and I dare not disturb the spirits of my ancestors." Beads of sweat on Lord Wang's face.
"Are the three who buried the jewels?" A little white ball was in the middle of them, stretching out his fat head and asking, and his hand pointed to the side of the spirit tower.
"What?" Lord Hong was stunned for a moment.
"The three spiritual pagodas on the side of that piano, there are fake ashes underneath, but there are precious jewels." An An emphasized again.
Lord Hong really didn't know what to say, and it didn't seem right to say yes or no. I could only look at him fixedly.
"I won't give it back to you, though." An An said hurriedly.
Lord Hong smiled and gently touched An An's fat head, "People don't want it there, you can take it if you like it, it's okay." ”
An An was happy, nodded at Lord Hong, and was about to say something more, of course, he was pulled away.
"Grandpa!" Qingqing saluted Lord Wang, although she hadn't seen it, but he was the father of Xiao Wang, so she had to call 'grandpa'.
"The lower officials don't dare, Your Highness has something to ask the lower officials, please tell me directly, right?" Lord Wang looked at the girl who was wearing a strange dress and only showed a pair of eyes, but he calmed down a little.
"Do you know the identity of the old gentleman?" Qingqing waved his hand to the surroundings, and Tang Leng and Ximen Kai took everyone away, including the old abbot.
Lord Wang looked at the queen, Qiao Ye, An An, and then at the people who were eight zhang away, and looked up and thought about it, "Your Highness also knows, right?" ”
"I want to hear from you." Qingqing didn't think about it, and said directly.
"Xiaguan was born in Yue, his family is poor, and if it weren't for the financial support of his husband, Xiaguan wouldn't even have the travel expenses to Beijing. When Xiaguan's parents and wives died, the old man also sent some jewelry to Zaixia, and Xiaguan was buried in the temple. Lord Wang hesitated for a moment, but said softly.
"Did you always know he was here?"
"No, Xia Guan has no relationship with the old man, it's just ...... I met my husband once ten years ago, he went to Xiaguan's house, asked Xiaguan to inquire about the culprit who killed his son, and left after speaking! Lord Wang saw that everyone was still staring at him, and thought for a while, "If the lower officials find it, notify Master Qiao of Kaifeng Mansion." ”
"So you believe that the Yue Guo Mansion case was not done by the old man?" Qingqing thought for a moment, "If he wants to check, why don't you just ask Master Qiao?" ”
"Xia Guan doesn't know, but yesterday, Xia Guan asked again, and the old man seems to have determined that the royal family is still the culprit, and he feels that the Qiao family is too much in charge, and he wants to help the royal family wash his name." Lord Wang hesitated for a moment, "He admits that the Kaifeng fire and His Highness's assassination are still his doings, but he is obviously still avenging the young master." ”
"Thank you, you just said that your parents and wife died, so the old man asked someone to send you some jewelry, so you are all in the Spirit Bone Tower." Qingqing bowed her head to him, raised her head and smiled lightly, "So, do you suspect that your parents and wife are the hands of your husband?" ”
Lord Wang looked up at Qingqing for a moment and didn't speak.
"My husband is a soldier, he won't do this." Qingqing smiled and said indifferently.
"Who did that?" Wang asked loudly.
"Investigating." Qingqing bowed her head and looked back, "My husband has a lot of unwillingness in this life, right?" ”
"He just wants to know who killed his only son." Lord Wang looked at the hut and hesitated, "Can the lower official go in and kowtow to the old man?" ”
"Of course!" Qingqing turned sideways and moved out of the way.
"Thank you!" When Lord Wang saluted the queen, he went in a little tremblingly, and when he arrived at the old man's bed, Lord Wang knelt down, covered his mouth, and didn't dare to speak, just looked at the old man on the bed, and for a while, he gently covered the old man's eyes, which An An had just opened for the queen, and he helped him close it again. Burst into tears for a while!
"Grandpa Wang is stupid?" An An held her stomach, leaned on the queen, and whispered.
"Why?" The queen asked busily.
"It's just stupid." An An couldn't say it, and said directly.
"You are stupid, you should have persistence in life. He's not bad! Qingqing understands An An, An An thinks that Lord Wang buried the precious jewelry in a fake ash jar, and then put it in the temple, and then what? Is there such a thing? She looked up and froze.
"Isn't that right?" The queen shook her head, as if remembering something.
Qingqing shook her head at her, and the queen stopped.
Lord Wang came out, his face was like dirt, and he bowed his hand to everyone, ready to leave.
"Grandpa, can you ask, when did you put up the monument?" Qingqing asked softly behind his back.
"What?" Lord Wang was stunned for a moment, not knowing what she was asking.
"You erected three monuments here, when did you erect them and how much did it cost?" Qingqing still has a gentle face. After he finished speaking, he also looked at Qiao Ye, "Grandpa, how much did you spend at the beginning?" ”
"It's very expensive, first send people down, then invite people to do stone carvings, and then find someone to transport them, the salary is a lot." The old man waved his hand.
"My husband is also buried here, right? Turn around and ask people to carve a normal spirit bone tower. Qingqing sighed softly.
"Grandpa Wang, you haven't said it yet, how much money did you spend?" An An was quite sensitive to money, and asked hurriedly.
"It's just three boxes, and the stone carvings are the existing ...... in the temple," Lord Wang hesitated for a moment, but said cautiously.
"Then why don't you ask why we dug up that spirit tower?" Qingqing gently untied her mask, revealing her pretty little face.
