Second Uncle Li looked at Zhu Yixiang with wide eyes and surprise, Zhu Yixiang could only smile back with embarrassment, and said: "I will slowly explain to you this matter in the future, I invite you to come over today, the main reason is that you need to identify some corpses!" Then he said to the official next to him: "What are you still doing in a daze, why don't you come over and untie the shackles for Second Uncle Li!" ”

Second Uncle Li was suspiciously invited to the morgue by Zhu Yixiang, the fragmented corpses found outside the city are here, and they have stayed up for several days and nights to piece together these corpses, although the weather is getting colder, but in order to prevent the corpses from decomposing, they are still held with ice cubes.

Zhu Yixiang was already afraid of the dead, but at this time, his body was weak, and he felt even more chilled, and he couldn't stop shivering!

Although Second Uncle Li said that he was full of righteousness, but after all, he was just a kind people, and he had just lifted the white cloth covering the corpse, his face turned white, and he turned around to run, and said in his mouth: "Oh, Mom! It's scared to death! ”

Lu Yan stood at the door and blocked Second Uncle Li's way, Zhu Yixiang hurriedly grabbed Second Uncle Li's sleeve and dragged him back, "Second Uncle Li, let's see if there are any of these people you know!" ”

Second Uncle Li was so frightened that he hurriedly shook his head and waved his hand, "No, no, I don't know, this damn thing is terrifying!" ”

"You haven't seen it yet, how do you know that you don't know, you have seen it first, and then you will talk about it, after reading it, the county government has a reward, don't you still owe someone else's charcoal money? After you read it, this Qian County Master will help you return ......," Zhu Yixiang said.

The county master next to him was not happy, and said that he had just scolded the dog I scolded bloody, and I still had to help him pay back the money, am I cheap?

In this world, you can't afford to live with silver, as soon as Second Uncle Li heard that there was money to take, he asked, "Is it true?" You didn't lie to me this time? ”

"Really, really! The county master is here, I don't believe you ask him! Then he turned his head to look at Pan Zhixian: "The county master, right?" ”

Second Uncle Li looked at the county master with an expectant face, and the county master stared back at Zhu Yixiang with a fierce gaze, and scolded the eighteenth generation of ancestors surnamed Zhu one by one in his heart! Isn't this silver supposed to be given by your brocade guards?

However, Lu Qianhu, who was standing in one piece, didn't say a word, obviously he didn't plan to pay, and he was just a seven-grade local county magistrate, so he really didn't have the courage to offend Jinyiwei, so he had to grit his teeth and say "um".

With the county master's guarantee, Zhu Yixiang hurriedly pushed Second Uncle Li inside, "Now don't worry, the county master has agreed, we all saw it with our own eyes, he doesn't dare to repay the debt!" ”

Where has Second Uncle Li ever seen such a miserable death, shaking his body and strengthening his courage, he gritted his teeth and looked at the faces of those dead people, and couldn't stop reciting Amitabha Buddha in his heart, and suddenly pointed to one of the corpses and said nervously: "This is ...... Isn't that ......?"

All eyes in the room were focused on Second Uncle Li!

Second Uncle Li pointed to the corpse and said, "I know him, isn't he the housekeeper of Half Moon Villa?" How did you die? ”

Everything was confirmed, as Zhu Yixiang had deduced, and Zhu Yixiang breathed a sigh of relief.

These people are related to the Jiangyang thieves who robbed the army, and the matter involved Half Moon Villa, Pan Zhixian broke out in cold sweat on his forehead, and scolded Second Uncle Li and said: "You can see clearly, don't talk nonsense!" ”

Second Uncle Li said unconvinced: "This person has a scar on his face, I am very impressed, and I will never admit my mistake!" Then he looked at the remaining corpses, pointed to a few of them and said, "This, this, and this, they are all from Half Moon Villa, I saw them when I delivered charcoal, why are they all dead?" What happened to Half Moon Villa? ”

Pan Zhixian was dizzy, he didn't expect that Half Moon Villa turned out to be a robber's nest, and Sun Qing and Sun Dashan in his county turned out to be a robber, is this worth it?

Lu Yan was obviously a little surprised by this result, so he said to Second Uncle Li: "Old man, what do you know?" The tone was much more polite.

But Second Uncle Li was confused, looked at Lu Yan and then at Zhu Yi Lane, and suddenly thought that they thought that these people were killed by themselves, right? Hurriedly defended and said: "This has nothing to do with me, I don't know anything about him, I didn't kill them, Half Moon Villa just owes me a few taels of silver, I can't kill them, let alone kill them, who do I ask for the account?" ”

"Second Uncle Li, with your small body, you just took the initiative to admit that you are a murderer, I don't believe it, Lord Qianhu has no other meaning, you can tell me about your charcoal to Half Moon Villa."

"Oh, let's talk about it, I'm angry when I talk about it, you said that such a big family actually relies on my charcoal money!" Speaking of this, Second Uncle Li looked angry!

Zhu Yixiang hurriedly brought the topic to the topic, "Second Uncle Li, how much charcoal did you send to Half Moon Villa?" ”

"There have to be a thousand catties, I sent the charcoal this year to them is not enough, buy charcoal everywhere, I said let them slow me down for a few days, I will send them after I burn it, anyway, I can't use so much for daily use at once! I didn't expect those people to be in a hurry, so I borrowed 500 catties of charcoal from others and sent it! ”

Hearing Second Uncle Li say this, Lu Yan had some questions, "It's not winter yet, so why do you need so much charcoal at once?" ”

Second Uncle Li shook his head and said he didn't know.

Lu Yan looked at Zhu Yixiang again, but heard Zhu Yixiang say to himself: "A thousand catties is definitely not enough, there must be others who have also sent charcoal to Half Moon Villa!" ”

Second Uncle Li nodded hurriedly and said, "Yes, when I was asking for debts, I also met others who went to Half Moon Villa to ask for debts, I asked, and it was also charcoal money!" ”

Zhixian said: "Maybe it's just accumulated for the winter!" ”

Zhu Yixiang sneered and said: "If you are saving for the winter, there is no need to be in such a hurry, you can wait for Second Uncle Li to send it to him after it is cooked, and it will not delay the use of Half Moon Mountain Villa at all!" ”

"Yes...... But that Sun Yuanwai is a well-known good man in this county, in the past, not only built bridges to benefit the township, but also people are very kind, to say that he is related to the Jiangyang thieves who robbed the army, I don't believe it to death! ”

"But the evidence is here, why don't you believe it!"

But there is a kind of trust in the world that clearly sees the ironclad evidence, and still thinks that person is innocent, just like now Panzhi County has Sun Yuanwai of Half Moon Villa, no matter what evidence is in front of him, he only trusts his intuition, Sun Yuanwai is innocent!

Zhu Yixiang can't change Pan Zhixian's opinion, and his current evidence chain is not complete, even Zhu Yixiang himself, there are some doubts in his heart, according to Sun Yuanwai's family background, a lifetime of prosperity and health is not a problem, the Sun family is not much, the family rents dozens of good fields, the profits of a few shops, enough expenses, not to mention that Sun Gongzi has entered the official career, the future is unlimited, this is the good fortune of the ancestors who accumulated virtue and cultivated for several lifetimes, and ordinary people have worked hard all their lives to seek nothing more than this, why did he go to rob the army and defeat this good fortune!

Then he asked Lu Yandao: "Lord Qianhu, have the people who went to visit Half Moon Mountain Villa come back?" ”
