Xu Chu, who was standing behind the master and listening to the trial, raised her eyebrows slightly, she really didn't expect Peng Deguan's psychological quality to be so good. At this time, and under Xiao Qinglang's questioning, he could still find an explanation.

When Xiao Qinglang saw this, Peng Deguan still refused to let go, so he simply picked up a blue purse from the desk and threw it down, and sneered: "Are you familiar with this purse?" ”

Peng Deguan was just about to quibble again, but was hit by a purse that fell from the sky. The purse popped out of his head and landed on the ground two paces away from him. He only glanced at it, and the whole person was sweating like rain, and his face was pale and difficult to look at.

Xiao Qinglang didn't give him time to think, and directly sneered and said, "If you can't remember clearly, then let this king remind you one or two." This is the purse you used to buy Feng Daqiao, which contained silver taels. This purse is made of fine materials, and the embroidery method is unique, the work is quite deep, and the embroidery girl who has some skills is not allowed to embroider. It just so happened that this king found an old embroidery girl in your ready-to-wear shop a few years ago, and she recognized that it was the purse she had embroidered for you. At the beginning, she embroidered your name as a mark in her purse for easy identification......"

Peng Deguan's body shook violently, and the cold sweat on his forehead crackled down, but he didn't dare to raise his hand to wipe it. It can be said that he is now as if he has been immobilized, and he is powerless to move.

He did have some impressions of the purse, although he couldn't remember the details. But he remembered that it was cut out of a fine dark blue satin cloth, and the rest of the material was still hidden in the cabinet of his house.

He glanced at it and saw that there were two leaves faintly embroidered on the purse, and there were silver traces on the seal. Suddenly, a heart sank completely.

Many years ago, he once calculated a hexagram, saying that he was the fate of the dead wood in spring, and he could always turn evil into good fortune in the future. Therefore, all the purses and sachets he uses will be embroidered with green leaves, which is also an auspicious omen. Later, because he often embezzled the silver taels on the cupboard, he lived a prosperous life, and he wanted to learn from the rich and noble to wear gold and silver threads. But he couldn't sit down, so he had to spend some work on his purse.

Thinking of this, he couldn't help licking his dry lips, and looked at the purse in fear and nervousness.

"Spread the Peng family's ready-to-wear shop embroidery lady Tian Hu's family!"

As the startling sound sounded, I saw a middle-aged woman over forty years old enter the yamen with a nervous face. She saluted first, then looked at the purse on the ground, and exclaimed, "Hey, shopkeeper Peng, isn't this the purse that was lost last year?" At that time, you just secretly cut a piece of the cloud silk from the counter and asked me to help sew it, because the fabric is valuable, I also looked for the material next to it and practiced my hands for a long time. After she finished speaking, she sighed with emotion, "You also know that there were a lot of intrigues among embroidery girls at that time. So in order not to make a mistake, and in order not to let people go away, so I had the courage to embroider your name on the bottom of the purse......"

As soon as these words fell, Xiao Qinglang, who was in the upper position, looked at Peng Deguan again with oppression and sternness.

"Peng Deguan, what else do you have to say now? Do you really want the king to open the purse and look at it? His tone was not hurried or slow, but there was an awe-inspiring air that was not angry and arrogant. Although he didn't speak harshly, it was enough to collapse the last line of defense in Peng Deguan's heart.

Peng Deguan's body trembled like chaff, and finally his face turned pale and crumbling and he said: "The grass people admit their guilt, it was indeed the grass people who found Doctor Wei and Feng Cheng to make a ...... on the eldest young master."

"At the beginning, the grass people embezzled too much silver taels on the counter and couldn't make up for it, and it was time to reconcile the accounts in the middle of the year, and the grass people were afraid of revealing their fillings. Later, seeing that the eldest young master's family was very loyal to the son of the grass people, he said that the two were brothers, and outsiders were afraid that they would also believe it. In this way, Caomin had other thoughts, wanting his son to really become the young master of the Peng family and inherit the Peng family's family property in the future. ”

As soon as his words fell, he heard the old man and his wife of the Peng family, who were sitting on the side listening to the case, let out a heart-wrenching cry. How could they have imagined that at the beginning of the disaster, it would be a kind heart that they didn't care about.

At that time, the two of them just thought that Peng Zhongyi and his son were of the same age and had some talent for reading, so they thought about simply letting the two study and learn together. Who knows, this will lead to trouble......

The people who were listening to the trial quietly outside the second gate were also in an uproar at this time, and they all stared at Peng Deguan in disbelief. How could he have such a thick skin, thinking that the dove occupied the magpie's nest was not counted, and he even killed the eldest young master of the Peng family's eight hundred. This, this, this...... It's incredible.

Peng Deguan's wife on the side smacked her lips a few times, but she didn't say anything in the end. Until Xiao Qinglang snorted lightly and said coldly: "Peng Liang, are you guilty?" ”

"Folk woman......" She straightened up and was about to speak, but she suddenly couldn't help but shudder at Xiao Qinglang's cold eyes.

"Although you have never hired a murderer, you have embezzled the property in the Peng family's shop several times. Later, you relied on your son and husband to gain face in the Peng family, and shoddy the grain in the Peng family's grain store, and then achieved the goal of filling your own pockets. What this king said, but the truth? After he finished speaking, he slapped a stack of ledgers on the table, and seemed to smile, "You are lucky, and the king must send someone to settle them one by one." ”

Peng Liang's family didn't care about anything else, and hurriedly kowtowed and confessed, "The women are willing to return the things and silver, and ask the prince for forgiveness......"

After Peng Deguan confessed to Peng Liang's guilt, he was naturally taken down. And now, only Peng Zhongyi, who was still quietly kneeling quietly with his eyebrows bowed, hanging his head and looking like a gentleman, and the old servant who was so nervous that he was trembling with his hands on the ground.

Xiao Qinglang asked, "Peng Zhongyi, are you guilty?" ”

"Back to the prince's words, the student does not know what crime he has committed. If the prince was asking people to buy Miss Qiuyue for the sake of the student, and wanted to use her hand to poison Wei Rongcong and Feng Daqiao and ask the students to blame, then the student had nothing to say. One of the two of them killed his brother, and the other pretended to be a post-mortem list, and the brother who killed him did not turn a blind eye and made the eldest sister-in-law have a family and could not suffer from the white eyes of others, shouldn't he die? The students are really angry in their hearts, so they will make this decision, and they hope that the prince will learn from it! ”

His mind turned quickly, and he knew that Qiuyue's matter had been revealed. After all, when he made the decision at that time, he was in a hurry, and he didn't have the time to lay out the details, let alone do things foolproof.

Now things have failed, and there are still many flaws. Not to mention the female prostitute in Qiuyue, the silver reward and the money from selling her body on weekdays will always be handed over to the old bustard in the flower building. There are very few things she can secretly leave behind, how can she bribe the jailers on duty at night so generously?

Besides, what kind of food are actually what she can get in the flower building?

As long as these two points are followed, it is not difficult to involve him.

Therefore, as soon as Xiao Qinglang opened his mouth, he knew that the idea of stubbornly resisting and not admitting guilt, and even pushing everything on his father Peng Deguan, would no longer work.

So, he simply took advance as retreat, left and right according to his arrangement, Qiu Yue should have died tragically in the mountains at this time.

At that time, although he wrote to Qiu Yue and made many promises, he even said that as long as he was in the limelight, he was willing to redeem her body, and then offer five hundred taels of silver to let her fly away. He also told her that if she was willing to do this, after the matter was completed, let her go directly to the carriage of the old servant Uncle Qiang, and Uncle Qiang escorted her out of the county to avoid the limelight. And Chunxianglou, there is him to settle down. The left and right are just spending a little more silver taels and sealing the mouth of the old bustard.

But in fact, he had already asked Uncle Qiang's son to wait in a remote place in the mountain village, and as soon as Qiu Yue got off the carriage, he would get rid of her.

Because he holds Uncle Qiang's deadly handle in his hand, and the two have discussed it before, he is not afraid of him turning against him.

When Uncle Qiang heard him defend like this, he suddenly trembled more and more, and his face turned pale. But at this time, he still didn't look up, just cowered in fear.

The old man and wife of the Peng family, who were still full of grief and indignation, flashed a touch of unbearability in their eyes. At this time, the hearts of the two of them had already loosened slightly, and they couldn't help but want to intercede for him. After all, if it weren't for their restraint, they would have wanted to kill Wei Rongcong and Feng Daqiao as soon as possible.

At this time, the whispering voices of the onlookers were much quieter, and the eyes that looked at Peng Zhongyi were also full of sympathy. On the one hand, he is his father and mother, and on the other hand, he is a brother who is like a brother, and it is understandable that he can think of ending the case on Wei Rongcong and Feng Daqiao while taking revenge.

In this way, it will be difficult to say the words of condemnation and spurning.

However, Xiao Qinglang's face suddenly sank and said: "What a person who can speak well, but it's a pity that he didn't put his mind on the right path." ”

Such meaningful words shocked everyone, and their eyes fell on the righteous and awe-inspiring Peng Zhongyi.

"Come on, bring Qiuyue! Take Peng San'er! ”

There were only two titles, but Peng Zhongyi's face changed suddenly, his eyes widened, and a cold sweat broke out on his spine. Looking at Qiu Yue and Peng San'er who were in disarray, his mind was empty, and the whole person sat down on the ground in dejection.

Qiu Yue didn't die, and Peng San'er didn't hide in the mountains......

It's over, it's over, and his mind is full of these two words at this time.

"Lord, my lord, you have to be the master of the little girl. The son of the Peng family obviously promised the little woman many benefits, but he didn't expect that he was a honey-bellied sword, and he would actually poison the little woman. Obviously, Qiu Yue was frightened, she didn't need Xiao Qinglang to ask at all, she directly told Peng Zhongyi what he had told her, and took out the letter he wrote to herself.
