Almost instantly, the changes in the Plains Marquis Mansion spread throughout Qingyang City.

Pingyuan Hou immediately died of a stroke on the girl's body, and Mrs. Pingyuan Hou was poisoned by her daughter-in-law. The husband and wife went to Huangquan Road on the same day, and they died so disgracefully.

Then there was Cheng Erniang's secret knot in front of her, which was originally the Pingyuan Hou Mansion that was ridiculed by the group, and there was immediately a scolding.

The difference is that the secret knot of the daughter who has not been out of the cabinet is a family misfortune, but the rebellion is a criminal case.

"The anti-Lun case, unheard of, still appeared in the Hou Mansion, and the title of the Plain Hou Mansion can't be kept."

"Even the prefect will be held accountable if there is a case of rebellion, if the Cheng family can keep the title, it will be red rain in the sky."

"Don't talk too much, think about the princess of Yan Wangfu, that is the lord who can cover the sky."

There are too many ridicules and discussions, and I can't suppress them.

Princess Cheng didn't plan to press it, the official mansion had already gone to the Pingyuan Hou Mansion, and the bodies of the Pingyuan Hou and Mrs. Cheng had also been examined, which can be described as a certainty.

While assigning the steward to take care of the funerals of Pingyuan Hou and Mrs. Cheng, he found the Qingyang prefect.

According to the Great Zhou Dynasty, the vassal king and the local officials were two systems, and although the prince had great power, he was not allowed to interfere in the operation of the local military and government.

But the Yanwang Mansion is different, it is equivalent to the Qingyang Tu Emperor, and he can directly manage the subordinate states and counties. Princess Cheng once held the throne on her behalf, and the Qingyang prefect was her direct subordinate.

"Xiaguan, Xiaguan is wronged, this matter has nothing to do with me." The prefect of Qingyang knelt on the ground, his face full of sorrow, and his voice was full of tears.

He really wanted to cry, there was a local anti-ethics case, and it was so big. Whether the Marquis of Plains can keep the title or not, he doesn't know. But most of his official position can't be kept.

"I know it's not about you." Princess Cheng said, "I just want to know, how did it happen?" ”

When she learned the whole story, she knew that the matter could not be suppressed, and most of the titles of the Marquis of Pingyuan Mansion could not be kept.

The anger in her chest could directly burn Han Xiao to slag, but she still had to suppress it. There may be room for reversal, if the Marquis of Pingyuan loses her title, it will be like cutting off her arm.

"I, I don't know......" Qingzhou prefect bowed his head and said.

"Then what do you know!!" Princess Cheng's voice became louder, and she pointed to the prefect of Qingzhou and said, "Incompetent fool, don't talk about black yarn hats, I'm afraid that prison is coming." ”

The prefect of Qingyang's knees weakened, and he almost knelt down, and said continuously: "I know, I know......"

"Then tell me what you know." Princess Cheng said angrily.

Qingyang prefect said: "I received a report from the Pingyuan Hou Mansion, and I came to a small guy from the Pingyuan Hou Mansion, who often follows the steward, and I recognize him." He came over and said that there were people in the house whose hands and feet were not clean, and he wanted the official family to come forward to deal with it, so I sent a catcher to go quickly. ”

Although slavery is one level lower than that of commoners, suicide is only a reduction in crime, not innocence.

Generally, the master of a wealthy family wants to kill a slave, and he will use a roundabout way. For example, if you are beaten half to death, you will die of illness if you do not give medical treatment. Otherwise, in winter, if you push the river, you will fall into the water and catch a cold, and the treatment will not be conducive to death.

There is also a way to plant a crime and then ask the official to deal with it.

A high gate like the Plains Hou Mansion is generally not used. The so-called family ugliness should not be publicized, there are so many ways to deal with subordinates, there is no need to use the government.

Although he didn't know the reason this time, since the Plains Marquis Mansion had spoken, he was naturally willing to help.

"Then I came to the door and learned from the people that Mrs. Cheng was poisoned, and Pingyuan Hou immediately had a stroke." Princess Cheng said with a sneer.

The Qingyang prefect didn't dare to make a sound, according to what the catcher said.

At that time, there was no master in the Pingyuan Hou Mansion, and two masters died in one day, like a fly without a head, and the subordinates were all panicked. When I saw that the catcher was coming to the door, I thought it was reported by my own family, and before I could say anything, I poured everything I had to say.

At that time, the catcher was also dumbfounded, but Pingyuanhou died, and Mrs. Yipinhou also died, this is a general event when the sky has fallen, and the catcher can't be treated as if nothing has happened.

The case was filed, the case was investigated, the autopsy was conducted, and the suspect was imprisoned, and a series of actions began.

"I, I really didn't expect it......," the Qingyang prefect whispered his defense, "It's all about catching fast and acting privately." ”

Princess Cheng was angry when she looked at him, and said coldly: "If you are an official, you can go home and farm." ”

If you change to a powerful prefect and have absolute control over your subordinates, or catch them quickly, things will never develop like this.

The Qingyang prefect in front of him is stupid and stupid, maybe not an evil official, but definitely a confused official.

"Princess, princess......" The Qingyang prefect was suddenly frightened, and quickly knelt down, "Princess, save me." ”

Princess Cheng asked, "What about the Tao family?" ”

"Locked up in jail." The prefect of Qingyang said, "The princess plans to ......"

Saying that, the Qingyang prefect made a gesture of wiping his neck and killing people, and it was very easy for someone to die in prison, even if it was a young lady.

"Fool, if she dies, there will be more room for the case to be reversed." Princess Cheng said angrily.

The prefect of Qingyang was stunned and said, "What does the princess mean ......"

"It is dishonorable for a man to die of a horse, but it is not a sin." Princess Cheng said, "What I want to turn over is the Tao murder case, a young lady who has been locked up in the back building, and she doesn't even have a confidant by her side, where did she get the poison to poison her mother-in-law." ”

The prefect of Qingyang understood a little, and said, "What do you mean ......?"

"This must be a vicious subordinate, poisoning the master, and framing the Tao family." Princess Cheng said, "Tie up all the people around Mrs. Cheng, and ask them one by one, and you can always find clues." ”

The subordinate poisoned the master, at most saying that the master was mean, but the mean master did not deserve to die.

From the case of the daughter-in-law poisoning her mother-in-law to the poisoning of the master, the criminal case has not changed, but the nature of the case.

Whether it is the Marquis of Pingyuan or Mrs. Cheng, they are all dead, and there is no hurry to take revenge, the most important thing at the moment is to keep the title of the Marquis of Pingyuan.

As long as there is a knighthood, there is still room for manoeuvre.

"The princess is wise." The prefect of Qingyang said, and his face also showed joy.

As long as it is not a case of rebellion, his official position will be retained.

"But if you want to overturn the case, there must be obstacles. No matter what trouble you have, as long as you feel that you can't handle it, come to me. Princess Cheng said.

If it is an ordinary case, it is not difficult to change the case of rebellion. But this time, the opponent was Han Xiao, and she didn't have much confidence in her heart.

But no matter what, this one must be spelled out, and the title of the Marquis of Pingyuan cannot be lost.

"Yes, yes, Xia Guan understands." The Qingyang prefect said, "The lower officials are only sent by the princess." ”

Princess Cheng knew that what he said was true, they were all on the same boat, the case could not be changed, and the Qingyang prefect would lose his official position. Waving, "Go ahead." ”

"The next official retired." The prefect of Qingyang said, got up and retreated.

The prefect of Qingyang hurriedly went out, and Mrs. Hu also came in through the back door and said, "The princess is back and wants to see the princess." ”

"Nope!" Princess Cheng's tone was impatient, "Crying and crying all day long, what can be done." ”

She didn't even go back to her parents' house, and she didn't know much about her niece.

Cheng Erniang forget it, her mother is stupid, and it is normal for her daughter to be stupid. But Mrs. Cheng is not stupid, Cheng Yuanniang is young, even if she is young and shallow, she should be a little level. Unexpectedly, Cheng Yuanniang's IQ was completely transmitted from Pingyuan Hou.

After the accident in the Pingyuan Hou Mansion, Cheng Yuanniang began to cry and cry, and kept saying that she wanted to kill Tao. Not to mention the title of the Marquis of Plains, I don't even know how to cook my parents' funerals.

"Alas, the princess is young, and it is inevitable that this kind of thing will happen at once, and it will inevitably be sad." Mrs. Hu defended Cheng Yuanniang.

In her opinion, Cheng Yuanniang is not bad, but she is naïve and shallow. didn't even get used to being a bride, and when her parents left suddenly, she would only cry.

Princess Cheng was upset and said, "You send someone to appease her, let her stay in the Shizi Mansion and don't run around." She doesn't have to worry about the funeral of the Pingyuan Hou Mansion. ”

It's okay to comfort the little girl, but it won't be to punish her. Pingyuan Hou has died, Cheng Erniang has also died at her hands, just such a big niece, alas, I hope she can be okay.

"The princess...... I haven't come back to the Plains Hou Mansion all the time. Mrs. Hu wanted to speak and stopped.

After the news of the accident in the Pingyuan Hou Mansion came, Cheng Yuanniang came to Princess Cheng to cry, but Princess Cheng had the patience to listen and sent her away.

Later, Princess Cheng made all kinds of preparations and summoned the Qingyang prefect, where would she manage Cheng Yuanniang.

"Didn't come back?" Princess Cheng frowned and said, "Send someone to bring her back, there is chaos in the house over there, so don't add to the chaos." ”

Whether or not the case can be overturned is the next focus, and the Pingyuan Hou Mansion still has to make trouble. Cheng Yuanniang doesn't have any skills, so don't go over, in case she says something she shouldn't say, it will be troublesome.

Mrs. Hu understood and said, "I'll pick it up in person." ”

"You don't need to go, just send someone reliable." Princess Cheng said, "You quietly go to the prison, go to see Tao, and take her words well." Where did her poison come from, and who borrowed her courage to dare to poison her mother-in-law like this. ”

After the relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law reaches an irreconcilable state, it is normal for daughter-in-law to want to kill her mother-in-law.

But if the killing is so blatant, it will not only kill you, but you will simply be crazy. Blatantly poisoning her mother-in-law is against morality, and her daughter-in-law will be Lingchi.

If Mrs. Cheng was a wonderful mother-in-law, she might really be able to force her daughter-in-law to be like this. But Mrs. Cheng is not, if she really hates Tao and kills her directly, where will she do this.

"Yes." Hu Pozi responded.

Princess Cheng thought for a while and said, "I remember that Mrs. Cheng has a mother-in-law by her side, who is her companion, and she is very calm and scheming. I haven't seen it a few times, but I'm impressed. ”

"What the princess said was Zhou Xi's family?" Hu Pozi said.

The master has a friendship with the master, and the subordinates contact the subordinates, and she is very familiar with the important subordinates of the Plains Hou Mansion.

Mrs. Cheng's two henchmen accompany her, one from the Fucai family and the other from the Zhou Xi family, in terms of ability, it must be the Zhou Xi family.

"It should be her." Princess Cheng said, "You go to her, I have something to ask her." ”
