Ma Zhenbing closed his eyes and his face was entangled, and after a long time, he raised his eyes to look at Bai Hanyan and finally nodded, and said, "My master did die twice, to be precise, he hanged himself once, but he changed two places. ”

Bai Hanyan's heart moved slightly, it seemed that her guess was right, Wang Jin had indeed hanged himself in Wang's shop the night before.

"Steward Ma, you make all this clear." Duan Changge suddenly spoke.

Ma Zhenbing didn't dare to delay, nodded and said: "That night was the little sweeper who came to me, at that time he was already scared, he said that the master hanged himself, I was suddenly shocked, thinking that this day had finally come, I sent people back, and did not publicize the matter, I came to the main house alone, pushed open the door and saw the master, the cousin, all hanged ......"

"It's all hanged......" Bai Hanyan muttered with his eyebrows raised.

"I was frightened at the time, so I sent that little guy to find the Wuxiang County Guy to conduct an autopsy, and I went to the county government to find Cheng County's order." Ma Zhenbing recalled crying.

"You went to find Cheng Xiao, did you see him?"

Bai Hanyan couldn't help asking, Cheng Xiao also came that night, so he didn't die the night before at all?

Ma Zhenbing was a little surprised, looking at Bai Hanyan and opening his mouth slightly: "What, what, shouldn't I look for Cheng County Order?" ”

Bai Hanyan came back to his senses, shook his head and said, "No, four people died, and it is true that the official should be reported." ”

Ma Zhenbing was even more surprised when he heard this: "How did Childe know that there were four people who died?" ”

Bai Hanyan pursed his red lips slightly, Duan Changge behind him did not raise his eyelids, and said lightly: "Forget it." ”

Ma Zhenbing frowned at this time, and sighed: "The immortal is miscalculated at the moment, not four, but five!" ”

"Five!" Bai Hanyan's heart was shocked, and he hurriedly glanced at Duan Changge, and was slightly surprised to see that he was also slightly surprised.1 The old man in Wuxiang County said that it was four people, but why did Ma Zhenbing say that it was five people?

"Oh, I calculated that they are husband and wife, and if they want to die, they will naturally live and die, but I didn't calculate that person." Duan Changge closed his eyes, made a calculating appearance, and after a moment, he opened his eyes and said, "That person is a pregnant woman, and he is the wife of that Cheng Xiao County Order!" ”

Ma Zhenbing's eyes lit up, and at this moment he was already admiring the five-body throw, and said: "What the immortal said is right, this is why I went to find Cheng County's order, in fact, I didn't go to report to the official, my lord also told me before his death, if one day he died, he was not allowed to report to the official, but the scene at that time was ...... I have to go to Cheng County. ”

"What was it like?" Bai Hanyan's eyes sank slightly and asked.

"At that time, ......" Ma Zhenbing recalled, his face still turned pale: "At that time, the old man was hanged on the beams of the house, while the lady was hanged under the old man's legs with his face on the ground, and the old man and his wife also died by hanging under the window lattice......"

Bai Hanyan sank his eyes, except for the wrong position of the two women, everything else was right, could it be that the murderer made a mistake about the identities of the two women when he moved the bodies, or was it deliberately intentional?

"What about Cheng Xiao's wife, where is she?" Bai Hanyan continued to ask.

Mrs. Cheng...... Mrs. Cheng, she tied her belt to the wooden buckle on the top of the sitting Buddha shrine, and sat on the back of the Buddha shrine and died! Ma Zhenbing closed his eyes, as if he didn't want to recall the scene he had experienced that night.

Bai Hanyan frowned, no wonder he only saw four people when the little guy came in, it turned out that Mrs. Cheng was behind the Buddha shrine.

"Then what did Cheng Xiao say after he came?" Bai Hanyan then asked.

Ma Zhenbing suddenly opened his eyes, his eyes were full of horror, and then he suddenly turned his head and leaned down, and kowtowed to the idol again, before he trembled and said: "When I come back with Master Cheng, my lord, the body of the lord is gone, and there is no one in the house, as if the scene just now is a nightmare at all, but Cheng County Ling is extremely angry, saying that I deliberately teased him, and his wife went back to her parents' house to live, and she was not in Wuxiang County at all, let alone hanged here with my lord!" Then he brushed his sleeves and left. ”

"Your master's body is missing?" Bai Hanyan twisted his eyebrows.

"Yes, I was scared stupid and just felt scared, and after I reacted, I immediately sent someone to look around, and after about a cup of tea, the sweeping boy came to tell me that the master was not dead, and they were going to rush back to Wuxiang County overnight."

"Then have you seen your master since you went back?"

"I've seen it!" Ma Zhenbing was also shocked and panicked, paused, and said: "At that time, it was late, the candles in the main house were also very dark, and the lord was wearing the prefect's official uniform. ”

Bai Hanyan looked solemn and asked, "What did your master say to you after that?" ”

Ma Zhenbing shook his head: "Although the master didn't say anything, but the old man asked me a word?" ”

"What did he ask you?" Bai Hanyan said urgently.

"He asked me a very strange thing, and he said that since the lord trusts me, I should be grateful, and it is understandable to know where the secret is, and if I say it at this moment, the lord will not blame!"

Bai Hanyan snorted coldly, it seems that all sins are for this secret!

"How did you answer?"

"I was a little overwhelmed by the question at the time, but I didn't dare to ask the master's secret, let alone where the secret was. They didn't say anything, waved my hand and let me go. ”

Ma Zhenbing's face was covered with a layer of cold sweat, and his eyes were full of panic: "But I didn't expect that the news of the lord's death came in Guiyang County Yali on the second day, and I remembered the weirdness of the matter. ”

Bai Hanyan raised his eyebrows and pondered, in this way, Wang Jin and the others died in Wuxiang County, so who took his body away, and how did he enter the county office, hang the body in the house, and then go out without knowing it?

What was the purpose of his painstaking efforts to remove the body?

And it takes four hours to return to Guiyang, and it takes three hours to get back to Guiyang, how can they delay Wang Jin's death?

"Do you know why your master can't think of hanging himself?" Duan Changge stared at Ma Zhenbing and suddenly spoke.

"This, this, the villain doesn't know?" Ma Zhenbing lowered his eyes, his eyes flickering slightly.

"I don't know? You just said that it would endanger your master's reputation, so you don't know about it? Duan Changge's voice carried a momentum of not being angry but threatening, and Ma Zhenbing shrunk his neck even more coldly, but he still pursed his lips and said nothing.

Bai Hanyan remembered the strange appearance of Wang Jin's two couples being hanged in the Guiyang Prefect's Mansion, perhaps, it was not the murderer who made a mistake, but he deliberately embarrassed Wang Jin!

"Is your lord having an affair with your cousin's wife?" Bai Hanyan speculated.

Ma Zhenbing was shocked, but he was furious: "No, my master behaves well, he will never be so unbearable and do such a morally corrupt thing!" ”

After a pause, he burst into tears again, and sighed helplessly: "It's my wife, and he ...... his wife and cousin."

I see.

"What about Cheng Xiao?" Bai Hanyan raised his eyebrows to look at him, and suddenly asked in a deep voice, "He also suspects that her wife is unfaithful, right?" ”

Bai Hanyan couldn't help but be suspicious of Cheng Xiao's reaction that night, a Wuxiang county commander heard that his boss Lord Governor had hanged himself, he shouldn't have reacted like this, even if Wang Jin hadn't hanged himself, even if he heard about it, he shouldn't have brushed his sleeves away, unless there was a grudge between them!

Ma Zhen Bing sighed again and again: "What the son said is right, Cheng Xianling has always suspected that his wife is having an affair with the master, and even the child in the womb is not his!" ”

Bai Hanyan sneered, glanced at him deeply, and said, "But all this is not the reason for their suicide, Steward Ma, what else are you hiding?" ”

Ma Zhenbing was stunned, and then cried silently, crying again and again: "It's all to blame for the old man, he misbehaves, often lingers in fireworks, and has the disease of chancre, my lord, my lord is also infected by his wife, this, what face does this have to live in the world!" ”

Bai Hanyan couldn't help but be stunned for a while when he heard this, and then sighed, this Wang Jin is also a good official, but it's a pity that his reputation in this life is lost in the hands of a woman!

"My lord received several anonymous letters one after another half a year ago, each of which said that he did not pick up the matter, and the lord was always ashamed. The old man knew that he was wrong, and he knelt in front of the old man and raised a knife to commit suicide, but the old man couldn't bear it and stopped him. Ma Zhenbing was heartbroken, and he became more and more sad when he thought of Wang Jin's voice and appearance.

It turned out that Wang Jin's self-hanging was really someone planning to fan, so who could this person be?

Ma Zhenbing continued: "In the past, when the lord took office in Guiyang, he would still return to Wuxiang County every other day to incense the Buddha statue, and then suddenly one day, the lord decided to go back to his hometown to sweep the tomb of his mother, and then a few days later, the lord called me alone, he said, if one day he is gone, I also want to send someone to burn incense for him every day, and ...... And recite the verses silently. ”

Bai Hanyan remembered that the two little guys were saying strange words when they offered incense, it turned out that it was Wang Jin's instructions, could it be that the secret was in that sentence!

But since it's a secret, why did Wang Jin leave clues? Who are you trying to find it?

"Lingji Niangniang, the master of the Yin Division, forgive me for my innocence. New ghosts are crying and old ghosts are crying, pearls are buried in mass graves, gods and Buddhas are kneeling and pious, and the afternoon moon is faint and the rooster is crying. ”

Duan Changge slowly read out the verse, his eyes looked at the Buddha statue for a moment, and his eyes showed white cold smoke and he couldn't understand the emotion.

"What did Immortal Duan think?" Ma Zhenbing looked at him, with hope in his eyes, maybe the secret left by the master was to let him be handed over to someone who was destined.

Bai Hanyan couldn't help but look at Duan Changge, seeing that his eyes were deep and shining, as if he was twisting the waves, he couldn't help but tremble, could it be that he already knew that this secret was in that sentence?
