Chapter 224: The Place of Burial
The case of the Wang family's mother and son soon came to an end, and Wang Liu's charge of murdering two lives was enough to make her sentenced to death, and the charge of conspiring with her lover to murder Wang Liugen and attempting to embezzle the Wang family's property was not so important.
The ancients regarded the crime of murdering their husbands as the heaviest, so Wang Liu was finally sentenced to ride a wooden donkey to show the public, and this punishment is definitely cruel enough for a woman.
Although the mistress participated in the murder of Wang Liugen, he was not the mastermind and did not do it himself, so he was sentenced to exile in the bitter cold land and a slave for life.
But Wang Liu's framing of Song Ji's cafeteria, she refused to confess the mastermind, and even the five hundred taels of silver she received was found out, she also lied and said that she had picked it up.
Regarding Wang Liu's statement, Mo said that Song Xingchen didn't believe it, even if he heard her words, few people believed it, but under the law of the Great Zhou Kingdom, he still didn't admit guilt under heavy punishment, so he couldn't be convicted.
Although Wang Liugen hated and poisoned Wang Liu's family, after all, Wang Liu's family raised him, so he still said in court that he would clean up for Wang Liu's family, but the ancestral tomb of the Wang family has absolutely no place for Wang Liu's burial.
After Song Xingchen got the news, he was even more sure that Wang Liu's family was bribed, and there were only a few enemies of the Song family, even if there was no clear evidence, she was not afraid that she would find the wrong opponent if she took revenge.
For several days, Song Xingchen has been making moves against the Qin family, and almost all the catering industries in the Qin family's Kyoto have gone wrong, making the Qin family very busy.
But Song Xingchen didn't make a fuss about human life, at first he just asked people to put a small strong man in the dish, and then it caused rats to make a fuss in the Qin's restaurant, and finally used substantial evidence to let the vast number of people who eat melons know that the Qin family is a profiteer.
These will not make the Qin family collapse, but the Qin family uses poultry meat that died of illness, which makes many people unacceptable, in case those poultry have a plague, then the person who eats it is equivalent to committing suicide.
For a time, not only the people in the capital went to the gate of the Qin Mansion to throw vegetable leaves and stones, but also many people took the opportunity to go to the Qin family's industry to smash them.
As for the Qin family's report, the government said that they had already recorded it and would need to wait until there were enough people to deal with it.
"Gongzi An, please save the grass people." Qin Weiye knelt on the ground and cried.
Qin Weiye asked to see the third prince, but he never got a reply, and spent more than 100,000 taels of silver to dredge it, and finally asked An Xuyan to agree to see him, as if he had seen a savior.
"The reputation of the Qin family has become irretrievable, and my son is ordering someone to check the treasury these days, and the things sent by the Qin family really dare not be retained." An Xuyan opened his mouth expressionlessly, teasing the canary in the cage, as if the person in front of him was not as good as this bird.
Qin Weiye's heart was excited, guessing the meaning of An Xuyan, then gritted his teeth and blocked it, and hurriedly presented the stack of silver tickets he carried with him, "This is a little bit of the Qin family's heart, and please accept it with a smile, and when the matter is over, the grass people will be thanked." ”
An Xuyan glanced at the silver ticket, looked at the thickness and knew how much it was, and said with a little satisfaction: "The head of the Qin family has always been courageous, if this son doesn't help, he will be a little unreminiscent of his old friends." ”
"Thank you Gongzi An for saving me, the grass people will definitely do their best to serve the three princes in the future, and Gongzi An will never dare to say a word if he has an order." Qin Weiye blocked the entire Qin family, and in fact he had to do so.
Although the Qin family has a big business, the foundation is still in the capital, and now all the businesses in the capital are paralyzed, and the whole family can't sit still, and many clan elders even stand up and point at Qin Weiye's nose and scold, if he can't handle this matter well, then he can only remove the identity of the head of the family and wait to be the Qin family's rice worm.
An Xuyan sneered, he had heard too many of these words of loyalty, so much so that he felt that silver was the most real.
"Now that the Qin family is in the midst of right and wrong, the head of the Qin family still temporarily suspends the business in the capital for a period of time to rectify it, and gives an explanation to those diners, as for what to do to satisfy everyone, presumably with the ability of the Qin family master, there is no need for Ben Gongzi to teach him personally, right?" An Gongzi put down the bird food, wiped his hands with a brocade hand, looked at Qin Weiye and asked.
"The grass people understand." Qin Weiye gritted his teeth and nodded.
The Qin family has many industries in the capital, and if they are out of business, they will lose tens of thousands of taels of silver in one day, but if they don't go out of business, they will lose even more if they are robbed, so he naturally knows the trade-off.
But the Qin family's cultivation of talents is not a day, this time I don't know how many people will be handed over to calm the anger of the public, this loss is not something that real money can measure.
"Go ahead, Ben Gongzi will take care of the rest." An Xuyan waved his hand and asked Qin Weiye to step back.
After Qin Weiye left, An Xuyan summoned the secret guard and asked, "Can you find out who did it?" ”
Even if Qin Weiye doesn't come, it is impossible for An Xuyan not to investigate, after all, the Qin family gives a lot of filial piety silver every year, and many people know that the Qin family is the person of the Three Princes, if he ignores it, I am afraid that those who waver will not dare to take refuge in the Three Princes.
Although An Xuyan doesn't care about the wall grass, there are times when the wall grass can also do great things.
"For the time being, there is no clue, the people who make trouble are all ordinary people, but it can be seen that several forces have taken the opportunity to intervene. Among them, the officials of the second prince's faction suppressed the Qin family the most, and the Du family, the Song family, and several catering families also made up for it. The Dark Guard reported.
"Hehe, they are really not vegetarians, and it is not in their interests not to do it at this time." An Xuyan was not surprised that these people would make a move, but he couldn't find out who was behind the scenes, An Xuyan was very dissatisfied, "Give you three more days, and if you can't find out who did it, you don't have to come back to restore your life." ”
The secret guard took the order to leave, An Xuyan returned to the birdcage, looked at the canary and teased: "It's still your life, you can live in a house made of gold without doing anything, this son not only serves you personally, but also eats and drinks for you, how do you know that this son is not easy?" ”
The canary tried to fly in its cage, but the space was too small, and it could only make a crisp call, disturbed by the peace of mind.
In the Song Mansion, Song Xingchen has been at home for the past few days, and he has no intention of going out.
The secret guard just came to report that Wang Liu committed suicide in prison, and Song Xingchen smiled when he heard it, expressing his disbelief that Wang Liu committed suicide.
"Check for me, what does this Wang Liu have to worry about outside, so that she doesn't even want her life." Song Xingchen gave an order, and continued to read the letter he had just received.
Now that the caravan has taken shape, it has begun to earn money for Song Xingchen, and she is also taking advantage of the hot iron to promote the reputation of the caravan and recruit talents.
"It's good when I can go overseas, Song Ji's things shouldn't be nested only in the Great Zhou Kingdom, only when they go to the world can they really be carried forward." Stretching, Song Xingchen yawned and prepared to go to bed to rest.
"Miss, what does that Wang Liugen mean? Although the Wang family is not a big family, he inherited the family business and has no worries about food and clothing for the rest of his life, so why do he have to follow Miss? Strawberry came in with the fruit, and before he could put it down, he pouted: "Miss Ming Ming said that he didn't need to repay him, but he just didn't understand the words, and he went to the cafeteria every day to report, and the guys rushed to work, I really don't know what to say about him." ”
"What day is this?" Song Xingchen twisted a grape and asked.
"It's the fifth day." Apple stretched out a slap on the side, brought a glass of water and put it on the table, so that Song Xingchen could rinse his mouth at any time, "Since there is no problem with this Wang Liugen, why doesn't Miss accept him?" He likes to be a buddy, so let him be a buddy, I think he really wants to repay the favor, and he will be loyal to the young lady in the future. ”
"That's it, I can still afford a guy's salary, you can deliver a letter to the cafeteria, and they will report every day." After rinsing his mouth, Song Xingchen covered his mouth and walked towards the inner room, and instructed the two maids: "I want to make up for a good night's sleep, it's not a big deal, don't come in and disturb my rest." ”
"In Miss's heart, is there anything bigger than sleeping?" Strawberry muttered, in exchange for a roll of the apple's eyes.
The Qin family, Xu Wan, who had just recovered a little, sat in the courtyard basking in the sun with a sickly face, looking at her bulging lower abdomen with hatred in her eyes.
was taken advantage of by Qin Zishen at the beginning, and as a result, she had this child, she didn't want to give birth, but in order to gain a foothold in the Qin family, she had to give birth.
Qin Weiye and Aunt Shen took special care of her because Xu Wan was pregnant, not only did they send supplements to her, but they also sent her a lot of experienced mothers-in-law to serve her, and even gave her the dignity that a young grandmother should have.
But Qin Zishen hated Xu Wan so much, and even hated this child, knowing that it was impossible to have any more children in this life, he even beat Xu Wan, almost causing her to die twice.
Although Xu Wan and the child survived, the doctor also clearly explained that if Xu Wan does not adjust her body well, the child will miscarry sooner or later, and she may never be able to have children again in her life.
The Qin family didn't care about Xu Wan, all they wanted was children, so they took more care of Xu Wan, and the people in the courtyard were staring at Xu Wan all the time, for fear that she would be implicated if something happened to her.
"Get out of here, don't be an eyesore in front of Grandma Ben." I don't know what to think, the ruthlessness in Xu Wan's eyes was difficult to hide, and she casually waved away the cup on the table and scolded her subordinates.
But the subordinates are like wood, no one moves, and their task is only to take care of Xu Wan's mother and son, not including listening to orders that she shouldn't give.
"Can't you hear me? Get lost! Get out of here! Xu Wan scolded again, her face became distorted due to her overexcitement, and there were bursts of throbbing pain in her lower abdomen.
Seeing that the situation was not good, the mother-in-law on the side immediately ordered someone to invite the doctor and the stable mother, and asked someone to inform Aunt Shen.
Fake Mrs. Qin was enjoying the shade in the garden, and when she saw someone running towards Aunt Shen's yard in a hurry, she guessed what was happening, and the corners of her mouth hooked up a mocking smile.
"Some things are predestined, they shouldn't be your things, and even if you get them temporarily, you will lose them sooner or later. Unless......" As soon as the smoke turned, the fake Mrs. Qin smiled: "Let the kitchen prepare some light and steamy side dishes, and then blanch two pots of wine, and the master will come over to eat tonight." ”
"Madame, don't you go over there and have a look?" The mother-in-law asked in a low voice, she had been bought by her for serving Mrs. Qin for so long.
"It's a little early to see the excitement, let's live our own lives, so as not to miss the opportunity." The fake Mrs. Qin picked a bright red flower and put it in her hair, but her gaze in the direction of Aunt Shen's yard was full of mockery.
