Chapter 296: Killing People and Killing Mouths
In the faint light and shadow, light and dark are intertwined, which also outlines Xiao Qinglang's sharp and handsome figure a little softly.
Compared with his solemnity and calmness, the people on the Peng family's side have their own thoughts at this time.
Peng Ning's family was taken back to the house by the Peng family's father and mother, although the Peng family was somewhat uncomfortable, but they did not reject her anymore. And Peng Deguan's family, although they said congratulations, they were anxious in their hearts.
At midnight, Chunxianglou Qiuyue, who had been friends with Feng Yanzuo, hurried to the prison with a food box to visit. After some time, she took out the extremely rich wine and food.
She was not too unlucky, and invited Dr. Wei, who was in the same prison as Feng Yanzuo, to have dinner together.
"Brother Feng, Qiuyue people are soft-spoken, and they can't do anything for you. I can only take advantage of the dead of night to avoid the eyes and ears of others to bring you some wine and food. As she spoke, she burst into tears. That's it, let's not say those depressing words tonight, and Qiuyue will give a cup to the eldest brother. ”
The wine poured out of the same wine jar, since she dared to drink it, Feng Qizuo naturally dared too. Moreover, there is also a doctor Wei who is proficient in medical science, if there is an abnormality, it will definitely not escape his eyes.
Just when Qiu Yue persuaded Feng Qizuo to use some chicken soup with Doctor Wei, he somehow got it, and suddenly his hand shook and buckled the small white porcelain crockpot to the ground. As a result, the chicken soup that is very attractive at the end of the yellow and Chengcheng is gone. Even the pieces of meat were covered with dust and withered grass, and they could not be eaten.
Qiu Yue's face changed, and she didn't seem to have much of the heart to deal with Feng Cheng and the two of them, so she bit her lower lip and hurriedly left a few words before leaving.
And after Qiu Yue was out of the prison, the guards hidden in the shadows quietly followed. But I saw her go straight to the corner of the street, and then got into a carriage with a dark blue top. And the carriage did not return to Chunxianglou, but galloped all the way out of the city.
The guards left marks along the way and followed them......
Nearly two hours later, a figure dressed in coarse cloth and gray clothes sneakily appeared outside the Peng family's courtyard. Then, after only a few voices heard the shouts, I saw that the side door of the cross-courtyard was quietly opened from the inside, and then the figure flashed into the courtyard.
"How?"
"It's been done, everything is done according to your wishes, even if the government traces it, it can only be traced back to the master."
"Okay, this is fifty taels of silver, you go out to avoid the limelight first, and then come back to receive the reward when this matter is over." The man paused and warned in a low voice, "Keep your mouth shut, as long as you don't leak this, when the accounts are checked, I will naturally wipe out the account of your son's greed for ink." ”
When the people heard this, they sighed angrily and were about to leave.
But just as the two of them were about to part ways, the side door was suddenly pushed open. At the same time, the cross-courtyard, which was still quiet and lonely just now, suddenly poured out three or five official errands, and after the official errand, it was the father and mother of the Peng family who had been hiding in the shadows and had never made a sound.
"Daddy, mother?" Peng Zhongyi looked at the person who suddenly appeared in astonishment, and subconsciously wanted to quibble for himself.
The old man of the Peng family looked at his respectful face, trembled with anger, raised his hand and pointed at him and asked in a cold voice, "Yi'er, are you...... You've disappointed me so much! ”
Peng Zhongyi's lips twitched twice, and he hurriedly said: "Dad, mother, I'm just angry that the quack doctor surnamed Wei and the butcher surnamed Feng hurt the eldest brother, so I ......."
"Alright, you think you're justifying yourself by saying that? Your mother and I are not old enough to be confused. ”
Speaking of this, the master and wife of the Peng family couldn't help but be angry. I think that since their son's accident, they have treated him as their own son-in-law, taught him carefully, cared for him carefully, and even treated their son a hundred times more carefully than they did back then. But in the end, I found out that I had a white-eyed wolf at all......
No, I can't say, but the bane of his own son was caused by him. After all, Master Qian himself said just now that Dr. Wei had confessed to Feng Cheng that the reason for the fraud was due to the instructions of his cousin Peng Deguan......
The cousin's family was originally just a side branch of the Peng family, and they were just a small shopkeeper in the Peng family's business. It was because his son Peng Zhongyi and his sister-in-law Peng Yiguang grew up together since childhood, so the two families had a bit of friendship, and then let outsiders look up to him.
And after Yoshimitsu's accident, their family was also very caring, accompanying and comforting them every day, which made them even more grateful. In the end, he was full of apologies and passed on the eldest son of the two of them......
The sons of snatchers, they already feel that they have treated each other badly in their hearts. In addition, Peng Zhongyi is humble and courteous, respectful and filial, which makes the couple more satisfied. In this way, the guilt in his heart was even worse, so he bought a house for the two of them to raise the status of his cousin's family in the Peng family.
Now it seems that it is really scary to think about. If the family had harbored evil intentions from the beginning, Mrs. Peng couldn't help but tear down her face and shake her face. What exactly did they do? led the wolf into the house and harmed his son, but now he still recognizes the thief as a son and lets him inherit everything that originally belonged to his son.
Seeing that things were really as Xiao Qinglang expected, Qian County Ling immediately didn't feel that he was miserable after pretending to be drunk in the middle of the night and being rectified by his wife and the prince, so he directly asked people to escort Peng Zhongyi and the rough subordinate down.
At this time, Peng Zhongyi had not torn his hypocritical face, and still respectfully knelt down to the master and wife of the Peng family, telling his innocence. He didn't cry like this, but his words were suppressed, which made the resentment in the hearts of the Peng family master and his wife can't help but shake.
This child can be regarded as they grew up, and he has never had any ambitions, and he is deferential to them and polite to outsiders. Even, he persuaded them several times to take his daughter-in-law Peng Ning home.
Is such a person really as unbearable as they think?
Or, as he said, he was just angry for a moment......
The morning sun hangs high, the sunny sky is thousands of miles, and the morning light has just risen, and the county town is already lively. In addition to the vendors who walk back and forth in the streets and alleys, and the small vendors who set up stalls early and shout to buy things, it is the most lively outside the second gate of the county ya.
With the opening of the coffin in the cemetery yesterday for an autopsy, the people in all the towns and villages all knew that King Jing'an, who came from the capital, was going to personally try the case. But what is the rarest thing for them is not the prince, but the female servant beside him who can manipulate the bones and dissect the dead pig without changing her face.
Some people who had not caught up with the excitement yesterday were surprised when they heard the people of the same village talk about the autopsy at that time. A female baby can overturn the autopsy results of the county's old man and Feng Yanzuo? Feng Yan, who was forced to say a few words, was embarrassed, admitted his guilt and was finally put in prison?
However, although they found it unbelievable, the fact was that Feng Qizuo had indeed disappeared.
If you pass on ten or ten hundreds, is the ability of the maid well known?
Xu is still some people add oil and vinegar to exaggerate and show off to others, which makes Xu Chu's reputation instantly rise to the point that no one can match. At least, it's the same as the female official in the notebook.
"Hey, have you heard, that female servant is the one who solved several big cases in Yunzhou City and Jinzhou City before. I went there to sell osmanthus oil before, and I heard a maid say that she was a god when she conducted an autopsy. "A vendor didn't care about selling his various items, so he directly handed over the stall to the lady next to him to help take care of it, and he rushed over to see the rarity.
In ordinary times, if the business is not good, in order to find a way to sell, he will often walk the streets and alleys to make a living. A few years ago, he went to Yunzhou City, and all the people in that city were talking about her deeds in solving the evil ghost case.
Last month, when he returned from Jinzhou City, he listened to the people who were amazed at her autopsy. Of course, there are many people who rebuke and dislike, but they are no match for the people's love for this legendary story.
It is probably because her deeds are becoming more and more legendary, but it makes the curiosity of ordinary people about this female servant more than disgust.
"I've heard too, she seems to be a female judge from the underworld, with a ghostly fire that can distinguish loyalty and treachery at a glance......"
"It's so amazing, then I don't believe it, it's just a yellow-haired girl, can it be that she can go to heaven?"
"Oh, Aunt Hua, why do you still have to lift the bar. Not to mention anything else, have you ever heard of the name of the prince who is going to try the case today in the capital? That's the jade-faced Lord of Yama, the person who is following him is not a female judge, could it be a little ghost? ”
"It doesn't matter what it is, anyway, a woman should be a good husband and child at home. is as unlucky as her, even if it is a female fairy, the old lady will not let her enter the door! ”
"It's just that a good girl is going to do her job, and she is not afraid that no one will want it. Good people, who is willing to do this pickled thing? Don't say you're not afraid of the corpses. ”
The curiosity of the people outside the second gate at this time was obviously more than the concern about the case. After all, the Peng family's affairs have passed for so long, and they have already experienced that the Peng Ning family was wronged. In their opinion, there is nothing else to see.
It's just a female servant, and it's the first time they've heard of it and the first time they've met it. No matter whether they saw it clearly last time, it didn't prevent them from taking a closer look this time, so that they could show off to others in the future.
As the servants lined up left and right, a mighty sound, and the sound of the killing rod knocking on the ground sounded one after another. King Jing'an and Qian County, who was dressed in official uniforms, sat at the height of the main hall in turn.
According to the laws of this dynasty, ordinary princes and relatives of the emperor are not allowed to interfere in local government affairs, let alone interfere in the trial and adjudication process of governments at all levels. But this does not restrain Xiao Qinglang, who is in charge of the three law divisions and the inner court.
He was born for prison, and because he is in a high position, he is naturally able to meddle in all cases.
At this time, the two of them were sitting precariously, their faces solemn, even though they had not yet spoken, they also showed their righteousness and selflessness.
