Ruan Yezhen heard the news, Xie Jinlan would not say it all to Master Chen without reservation. Just as Mrs. Wang knew a lot about what happened five years ago, Master Chen didn't know about it.

Seeing Mrs. Wang like this, he only thought that she was really being kept in the dark:

"Mrs. Wang, this matter is true, that Xiaomei's body is still buried under the big tree near the pavilion not far from the lotus pond in the garden!"

Everyone suddenly exclaimed. Even the gaze that looked at Lin Zirou changed instantly: I didn't expect that Sister Zirou looked at such a gentle person on weekdays, and her heart was so vicious! It's really in response to the old saying - knowing people and knowing faces but not knowing hearts!

Mrs. Wang held Mama Zeng's right hand and tightened her tightly: "Even so, what evidence does Master Chen have to prove that Zirou is an accomplice?" ”

Master Chen said: "This is what Zhang Xiaomei's sister Zhang Xiaoliu said herself!" ”

Zhang Xiaoliu turned out to be Zhang Xiaomei's sister!

Everyone present, including Mrs. Wang's grandmother Zeng Zirou and Lin Zirou, were shocked by the news.

The three of them couldn't help but glance at each other secretly.

Lin Zirou and Mama Zeng lowered their eyes again.

In the daze of the little maids, Mrs. Wang said in a deep voice: "Lord Chen, in addition to Zhang Xiaoliu's words, is there any other evidence to prove that Zirou is an accomplice?" Adults can't believe her slander with empty mouths and white teeth! ”

Master Chen was slightly stunned, and when he saw that Mrs. Wang was about to protect Lin Zirou to the end, he finally saw something strange.

After a closer look, Master Chen found that Mrs. Wang was not as calm as she appeared.

At this moment, Master Chen suddenly remembered that Lin Zirou had become Mrs. Wang's first-class maid for some reason, and suddenly realized in his heart: For the incident five years ago, Mrs. Wang should be one of the insiders!

Due to the lack of evidence, Mrs. Wang's attitude was too tough. In the end, Chen Zhushu and others had to let Lin Zirou go.

But in order to prevent Lin Zirou from absconding with the money overnight, he sent a few catchers to follow her every step of the way. Then, he took the rest of the people to Zhang Xiaomei's burial place.

Most of the people in the Yuanwai Mansion also followed with Mrs. Wang. In front of everyone's eyes, a white skeleton was quickly dug out of the dirt.

I don't know how to dispose of Zhang Xiaomei's corpse is the most appropriate, so Master Chen can only arrange a few people to guard it first.

And he took the rest of the people back to the county office, let everyone go back to rest for a while, and he came to Xie Jinlan non-stop.

Looking at Master Chen, whose face was still slightly angry, Xie Jinlan smiled: "As the saying goes, 'Skynet is restored but not leaked', then Lin Zirou has done evil things, and more or less will leave clues." ”

Master Chen's sword frowned slightly: "But it has been five years since the incident, can you really find any evidence?" ”

Xie Jinlan bowed slightly:

"Naturally. Have you forgotten that the official once said, 'A corpse will never lie'? Go and take Zhang Xiaomei's body back to the county government directly. I will go to ask Lin Chengzuo to come for an autopsy early tomorrow morning. Zhang Xiaomei herself will provide us with enough evidence to arrest Lin Zirou! ”

Master Chen got up and bowed deeply to Xie Jinlan, and then didn't dare to delay for a moment, leaving like a gust of wind as he came.

Even though he knew that Xie Jinlan's ability to perform an autopsy was stronger than that of Lin Yanzuo, Master Chen would not recklessly ask him to conduct an autopsy.

In his place, he is in power!

The autopsy is Lin Yanzuo's responsibility, if the autopsy must be done by Xie Jinlan, the county magistrate, then is there still a need for the post-mortem to exist?

Chen still sees these truths very thoroughly.

Looking at Master Chen's distant figure, Ruan Yezhen couldn't help but sigh with emotion: "Master Chen is really a good official who puts the people first in everything. ”

Xie Jinlan glanced at Ruan Yezhen lightly and said:

"That's because he has lived in Lin'an County since he was a child, and although he is a little poor, he has not experienced any winds and waves, so he naturally believes in justice and fairness in this world."

Ruan Yezhen looked at Xie Jinlan, whose face suddenly became complicated, and asked with a little concern: "Xie Jinlan, what kind of unfair treatment have you encountered before?" ”

Xie Jinlan was stunned when he heard this. He thought that the other party would rightly refute him, but he didn't expect this to be the kind of reaction.

'As long as you die, I am the only one in this world who knows the truth!' ’

A deliberately buried sentence suddenly appeared in his mind, and his eyes couldn't help but deepen.

Inadvertently glimpsing the worry in Ruan Yezhen's eyes, Xie Jinlan instantly restrained his thoughts, and replied decently:

"My father is the head of the imperial merchants in Beijing, and I am the only son in the family. In the past, I was what people called Xie Xiaobawang, and now I am the head of the four famous gentlemen in Beijing. Who dares to be unfair to me? ”

Ruan Yezhen was stunned for a moment, and suddenly remembered that she had heard her second brother Ruan Haoxuan mention it by chance:

"In terms of eating, drinking, and having fun, the person I admire the most is Brother Xie. He always has a new twist on the same thing. I dare to say that he deserves the title of the first of the four great gentlemen in Beijing! ”

Ruan Yezhen had a bit of a surprise on her face: "So, you are the eldest brother Xie that my second brother once mentioned?" ”

Xie Jinlan raised his eyebrows slightly: "Your second brother?" Ruan Haoxuan, the second son of General Zhenguo? Yes, I met him at Wansong Academy, and we have known each other for nearly ten years. ”

Ruan Yezhen suddenly became angry: "It turns out that you are the one who took my second brother on the road of gentleness and never returned!" ”

Xie Jinlan said disappreciably: "So what? I just taught him the truth that life is short and that time is good. What's wrong? ”

Ruan Yezhen's eyes widened in disbelief: "What kind of crooked reasoning are you?" That's called not wanting to make progress! ”

Xie Jinlan sighed lightly and said, "Don't you think that your second brother lives more easily than your eldest brother?" ”

Ruan Yezhen choked and suddenly fell silent.

Indeed, her eldest brother, as the eldest son of the Zhenguo General's Mansion, is the future of the General's Mansion, and the burden on his shoulders is more than a star and a half heavier than that of the second brother.

Although the eldest brother always has a gentle smile on his face. But how could she not see that it was just the appearance that he was accustomed to showing people? Perhaps, the eldest brother is more tired than she imagined.

Sighing softly, Ruan Yezhen said in frustration: "Xie Jinlan, maybe what you said is right. ”

Xie Jinlan's thin lips opened lightly, but the words in his throat suddenly fell back into his stomach: Forget it, he doesn't need to say those useless comforts. This Ruan girl is not so fragile.

The facts were just as Xie Jinlan expected, and when the sky was slightly bright on the second day, Ruan Yezhen was relieved:

Master Huiyuan once said that in the cycle of cause and effect, individuals have their own fate. The eldest brother has borne so much, and he will definitely be rewarded accordingly in the future!

Before Lin Cheng came to the county government for an autopsy, Master Chen handed over the notice that had been prepared last night to Li Zhukuai, and asked him to paste it at the notice as soon as possible.
