Chapter 615: Case (2)
They didn't tear their faces openly, and after fighting secretly for a few rounds, the Gong family finally relented and played a yin ~~ Taking advantage of the opportunity to visit the door, the second draft well of the Hui family was poisoned with chronic poison.
Unexpectedly, the pregnant husband who came to the house gave birth prematurely before dawn and gave birth to a baby girl.
Giving birth to a girl is a happy event, but at this time, the whole family feels that this is a good omen, and thinks that the quota for the Beijing entrance examination will definitely be spent at home. So I didn't eat breakfast, and before dawn, I went out of the village to the market town to buy a lot, and invited the whole village to eat and drink, so as to increase the popularity and good fortune of the family.
Because there are many people in the family and there is a lot of water, there is more than one big well that comes to the house, and the second well that was poisoned by the Gong family is also used at ordinary times, but it is used less.
This one invites the chef to hold a wedding banquet at home, wash, wash and cook, and naturally use more water.
When the water in the first well is insufficient, a second large well is used. At this time, the banquet was halfway through, and the entire front hall and the two courtyards were full of people, all of whom were smiling and waiting for the next dish after the auspicious congratulations.
"It can be imagined how tragic the death of the people in this village is......" Chu Han shook his head, "But after the collective death, the news from the state city passed over and decided to recruit Junchen." ”
Chu Yuran sighed: "So the Gong family had the audacity to let Gong Chishen replace Lai Junchen." ”
It's just that so many people died of poisoning, and the whole village was gone, and it was impossible not to be discovered, not to mention that death from poison was different from normal death, and it was enough to pay attention to so many deaths at one time. However, because the village chief could not be spared from dying that night, this major murder case that should have been reported in time was discovered by the township officials on the day of the arrival of the informant in the state city.
It's a pity that the township official Hu Miaoli is obsessed with it, first, once the case is reported, she will definitely be to blame, and it is light to lose her official hat, I am afraid that even her head will have to move;
Second, there is no official who does not want a few talents in his jurisdiction, because this is linked to her official future;
Third, the Gong family is very brainy, and actually transferred all the cash and family property of the family and all the villagers to her in the middle of the night, and promised that once Gong Chishen succeeds in impersonation, the Gong family's property will also share half of her, and if Gong Chishen can get fame, he will definitely not forget today's great kindness in the future, and he will repay him with a spring.
With his life and interests weighed, Hu Miao finally reached an agreement after conspiring with the head of the Gong family.
The Gong family left overnight, leaving only a few reliable people, lit the long hemp rope on the tails of several rats they caught, threw them into the kitchens of several families in the middle of the village, and set fire to the haystacks and firewood piles of each family, and set fire to the entire Gong's village.
So far, the major murder case has been concealed by the local township official Hu Miao. According to Cheng Jinghu's investigation, the local county magistrate also went to the countryside to inspect the people's situation on a whim, but was dizzy by Hu Miao's wine-colored service, and finally only went to a village that was arranged in advance to be extremely clean and tidy, and the villagers were extremely pure and polite, and then under the attack of the beauty, he returned to the county office with a stack of silver tickets satisfied.
After that, whenever there was an inspection of the people's situation, Gongjiazhuang was deliberately avoided and bypassed, and the people of the neighboring villages did not know what to do, only as a group of rats stole oil at night and overturned the oil lamp, causing a fire, causing the death of the whole village, and the township chief also asked someone to clean up their charred bones and put them into the ground for peace.
The people who were invited did not know whether they could bear to witness the tragic situation of the villagers, or whether they were afraid of the smell of the corpses, so they all wore cloth towels on their faces and cloth covers on their hands.
No one could have imagined that they were actually the Gong family, the Gong family who let the villagers die in their own beds because of ****.
Gong Shineng, the head of the Gong family, pleaded guilty in his confession, saying that she didn't expect that things would be so coincidental and affect the whole village. But at that time, the poison had already gone into the well, and they didn't dare to say it, so they could only watch everyone be poisoned and die, and the Gong family who was at the banquet did not eat a bite of food.
After this incident, she was also remorseful, but she couldn't turn back, so she could only change her name and surname, live in seclusion, and when Gong Chishen succeeded in impersonating her name, kept climbing, and took up the post of general affairs of the prison prison of the Criminal Department, she tricked her into drinking a bowl of earthwork soup made of forgetful worries, so that she lost part of her memory, just in case.
It's just that Lai Junchen, who forgot his real name Gong Chishen, also lost some of his knowledge at the same time, and his personality also changed, so that he stayed in the position of the general affairs of the prison and never moved the nest again.
The real clan has sent people to the capital to find "to Junchen", after all, the surname "Lai", although it appears to be a lot in the clan, but in terms of the whole country, compared with other surnames, it is still extremely rare, since there is a Beijing official, it is natural to inquire, if it comes from a forgotten or even discarded branch, you can also return to the clan center, solemnly worship the ancestors, and record its name, official position, etc. into the family tree, if you also add officials and promotions in the later period, the family tree will also be added one after another, until the life is completed and the whole family is glorified.
It's a pity that "Lai Junchen" didn't know them at all, and he couldn't remember what his family's name was and where he was, so the Lai family was very helpless, so he could only invite her to return to the clan to worship her ancestors, and then announced that Lai Junchen was a descendant of the Lai family.
The male head of the family in Yingcheng was Yang Wei, the son-in-law of the Gong family, who knew the whole inside story, and after suffering from a tormented conscience, he finally slipped out of the house with his son Mei'er and set foot on the road to the capital.
Lai Ren Chang is a roadside orphan picked up by Yang Wei's father's family, he is a poor man, and his real name is not called Lai Ren Chang.
Yang Wei's father unfortunately passed away early, and Lai Renchang brought his daughter, who was also adopted, into the Gong family to serve Yang Wei. Yang Wei's thoughts, Lai Ren Chang had already seen it in his eyes, and he was ready, Yang Wei slipped out of the door with his front foot, and Lai Ren Chang took his daughter to his back heels.
Yang Wei originally wanted to take their mother and daughter with him, but he was afraid that after he left, the two would be unexpected. But she was afraid that there would be too many people, but she couldn't escape, so she left them with a fluke heart, hoping to see each other again in the future, but she didn't expect that she had insight into her thoughts and quietly followed.
Yang Wei was moved and rejoiced, so the four of them went to Beijing together, found Lin Junchen, and through her, found the Lai family and told the truth.
The patriarch of the Lai family, Lai Yiyi, was shocked, however, to Yang Wei's surprise, after thinking about it, Lai Yiyi asked him to continue to keep the secret, and gave him a sum of money to choose a place to live in seclusion, and forcibly resettled Mei'er in a large mansion only ten miles away from the ghost village.
Yang Wei thought that when they came to the house, they should be reluctant to give up the reputation and benefits that Lai Junchen brought to them, or they were afraid that the shameful thing of such a slap in the face would come out, and they would be laughed at so much that they would never have to go out of the house again, so they confessed their hatred and threatened him with Mei'er.
It wasn't until the case happened that Yang Wei knew that Mei'er was just a bait under the strange concubine.
Lai Yiyi put down this bait, not because he had a lot of hatred, but because he put him there to see if the unjust soul of the family who belonged to the branch after branch showed up and aggrieved himself.
The unmarried young man who owns a mansion has a surname, and these two points alone are easy to attract attention.
With Mei'er, the ghost village ten miles away will one day be exposed to people with intentions, or officials, or candidates who like to solve cases, or passers-by who are nosy but can really work, such as Chu Han and Liuhuo.
However, even Lai Yiyan didn't expect that Meier would fall in love with Gong Hui who went out to wander, wandered outside, and never found a home after coming back, not to mention that he himself was not surnamed Gong, but Gong!
What a trick in the world!
Probably, this is also a means of revenge for the perverts who came to the house.
Let the two descendants of the Gong family love and kill each other, which is also extremely angry.
