"I ......" Zhu Guang opened his mouth, but he didn't speak. Wei Qinghuan smiled lightly, and ordered someone to remove the cloth from his mother's mouth.

I saw that Zhu Guang's old mother gasped twice, her voice was hoarse, and she cried, "Son, just say it." Your father and I have been upright all our lives, and we can't just let these things be ruined. ”

Zhu Guang looked at his mother with tears in his eyes, sighed fiercely, and then spoke, "Mother, I said." Then he looked at Wei Qinghuan and said, "My lord, I said ......."

Wei Qinghuan glanced at him, as if he had expected this ending a long time ago, "Say, why are you lying?" ”

"Madame threatened me," he said, glancing at the two chests full of silver, "those two boxes of silver were also given to me by Madame." ”

Hearing this, Fang You frowned, this prefect's wife really had a problem.

"What did she coerce you? And why did you give so much silver? Wei Qinghuan asked.

"Because ......," Zhu Guang paused again.

"Because of what? Say it! Zhao Rou was anxiously urging on the side.

"Because...... I saw Madame poisoning the old man's tea. Zhu Guang said, a layer of fine sweat appeared on his forehead.

"What?" Zhao Rou was obviously shocked by Zhu Guang's words, "So that prefect's wife is pretending to be sad and sad today?" ”

"Are you telling the truth?" Fang You asked.

"It's the truth." Zhu Guang replied.

"Why did she kill her husband?" Wei Qinghuan touched his nose and asked.

Zhu Guang shook his head, "I don't know about this." ”

Fang You also thought about it, his eyes looked away, but he seemed to be talking to Wei Qinghuan, "I just saw a large bruise on the prefect's wrist, as if she had been injured, but she told me that she had slammed on the table. ”

Wei Qinghuan glanced at Fang You, frowning, as if he had a clear look.

"That's right......" That Zhu Guang heard Fang You's words and said, "When our lord is not happy in the officialdom, he often beats and scolds his wife when he comes back, and I have already bumped into him several times." Moreover, I heard that once my wife was pregnant and was beaten by my husband, and I have not been able to conceive a child since then. ”

"Could it be that the prefect's wife hated because of this, so she poisoned the prefect?" Fang You analyzed.

"Quite possibly." Wei Qinghuan said. Fang You glanced at him, then turned his head again, and said nothing.

"But they don't look very rich in the house, where did the prefect's wife come up with so much money to bribe Zhu Guang?" Wei Qinghuan gave Fang Yu a quick look, and then said.

"Well, that's true," Zhao Rou said, "that Fuzhong looks very shabby, and it doesn't look like it's rich." ”

"It seems that the answer can only be found out by bringing that prefect's wife for interrogation." Wei Qinghuan put down the hand that was touching his nose and ordered the people around him to arrest the prefect lady immediately.

The prefect's wife was originally struggling to be arrested, but when she saw Zhu Guang who was tied up and the two boxes of silver on the ground, her eyes darkened and she stopped struggling.

"Madame still recognizes the silver?" Wei Qinghuan asked, staring into the eyes of the prefect's wife.

"If you have something to say, you might as well say it directly." The prefect's wife said very stiffly.

"Looks like you've already guessed what I'm going to ask," Wei Qinghuan admired her courage and motioned for his men to loosen her ties, "Then let's be honest." ”

The prefect's wife closed her eyes, raised her head high, sighed, and then looked at Wei Qinghuan and said, "That's right, I killed the master." ”

"Why did you kill him?" Wei Qinghuan asked.

The prefect's wife smiled bitterly, and then rolled up her sleeves, only to see that the white skin was full of shocking marks of being beaten by others, except for the bruises that Fang You saw, and some of them had festered and scarred, "Master, he is an ambitious person, I also fell in love with him at the beginning, and begged my father to marry him, who was only a poor and sour talent at the time...... He may promise me that he will prove to my father that he is by no means an ordinary person. Sure enough, he slowly climbed to the position of prefect. And his temper is rising just like his rank. But every time he beat me, he always said he loved me. Sometimes I wonder if I'm putting too much pressure on him. Later, I told him that just being a prefect was enough, and I was satisfied, but I forgot, he was not satisfied. Later, after he beat me, I saw red, and then I knew I was pregnant......"

The prefect's wife obviously talked about a past that she didn't want to look back on, but as if she wanted to talk about something that she wanted to talk about very much, she continued, "The doctor said that I ...... after reading it There can be no more children. I felt like the sky was going to fall, it was the first time I had slapped him, and I could see that he was also sad, and I saw him...... Secretly crying at night...... I've never seen him cry......" After speaking, the prefect sat on the ground, tears sliding down the corners of her eyes,

Wei Qinghuan lowered his eyes and glanced at Fang You, only to see her head down, silent, holding her hands tightly, he was a little worried about her for a while, and couldn't help but look at her a few more times. Who knew that as soon as Fang You raised his head, he happened to meet Wei Qinghuan's gaze, he hurriedly turned his head and asked the prefect's wife, "Where did those two boxes of silver come from?" ”

The prefect's wife lowered her head and spoke for a while, "Someone else gave it to me." ”

"Who?" Wei Qinghuan then asked.

"Meng Yang."

"Meng Yang?" Zhao Rou asked, "Why did he give you so much money?" ”

"He has a handle in the hands of the master, and he has bribed the master, but the master has high ambitions and does not look down on his money. He also came to me to poison the old man's tea. The prefect's wife became very calm as if she were telling someone else's story.

"He's your husband, are you so ruthless to kill him?" Zhao Rou asked.

"Am I ruthless?" The prefect's wife sneered, "When he beats me every day, isn't he ruthless when I can't give birth to children and marry another woman?" After speaking, he suddenly stood up and slammed into the wall in front of him, blood flowed down his forehead, only to hear her say angrily, "Wang Yaowen, if I can do it all over again, I don't want to marry you again." ”

"Madame!" Fang You hurriedly rushed to the prefect's wife and half-helped her up, but the prefect's wife had already closed her eyes when she finished the last sentence, "Why are you ...... so hard?"

"Ayou......" Wei Qinghuan stood behind Fang You, he knew that Fang You was a very emotional person, and he wanted to comfort but didn't know what position to use to talk to her, so he withdrew his hand that stopped in mid-air.

Zhao Rou sees everything in her eyes, isn't the most touching thing in this world that she still loves each other but can't even say a word?

"Ayu...... Don't be too sad, Lord Wang and Mrs. Wang can finally meet under the Nine Springs, and they should be more relaxed without all the disturbances in the world. Zhao Rou squatted beside Fang You, "Come, Ayou, get up, let people take Mrs. back and be buried with the prefect Wang's mansion." ”

Fang You secretly wiped away his tears, and then stood up, at this time he was a little glad in his heart, fortunately he and Wei Qinghuan let go, if he insisted on being with him, would he not be able to escape such an ending? Wouldn't that hurt him?

When the matter is found here, it can be regarded as a great progress. Fang You and Zhao Rou planned to go back to find that Meng Yang, what is the relationship between this Meng Yang and the person surnamed Meng that the master came to find, and Mrs. Meng?

"Ayu!"

Fang You and Zhao Rou were not far from the yamen, and Wei Qinghuan's voice came from behind them. Fang You didn't stop, but was pulled by Zhao Rou, she looked at her and said, "Go, go and make it clear to him." ”

Fang Yu stopped at this time, his eyes hesitated, and Zhao Rou went back to the inn first.

When Fang You turned around, Wei Qinghuan had already caught up, "Ah You, you just ...... You okay? ”

"It's okay......" Fang You shook his head, not daring to look directly into his gaze, "You...... What to say? ”

"I don't think we can go on like this." Wei Qinghuan took a deep breath and said.

Fang You gently twisted the corners of his clothes and said, "I think this is very good." It doesn't matter, it's just our best. ”

"Why is this happening?" Wei Qinghuan's voice was low, and his eyelashes cast a shadow under his eyes.

"When you find out why one day, you won't be standing in front of me like you are now." Fang You said as if talking to himself.

"Why do you decide what I think in your heart? Am I that kind of person in your mind? Wei Qinghuan reached out and grabbed her shoulders tightly.

Fang You was like a reed swaying in the wind, let him hold it, "It's me who is too selfish, and it's all my fault, I can't let you bear it, it's the best choice to leave you." ”

Wei Qinghuan slowly let go of her, the wind blew quietly in his ears, and after a while, he spoke, "I know that there are many things that you don't want to tell me, I choose not to ask, you let me leave you, and I agree......" He finally seemed to have made up his mind, and said: "It's just, if we meet again in the future, can we talk like friends?" ”

A wry smile crossed the corner of her mouth, and she looked up at him, reluctantly responding, "Hmm." ”
