Chapter 34: The Truth Comes Out

Song Weizhe's scalp tightened when he was asked, and he was silent.

Mu Yuanjing saw that Song Weizhe did not express his position, and he did not plan to continue to entangle, he reached out and twisted something from Qin Zhiyi's bedside and sent it to Song Weizhe.

After seeing what Mu Yuanjing was in his hand, the corners of Song Weizhe's eyes twitched, and his expression became flustered, and his gaze couldn't help but avoid.

Mu Yuanjing's hand didn't let go, "This was found on Qin Zhiyi's bedpost, the bedpost has been used for a long time, and there are wooden thorns in some places, and the murderer left in a hurry after killing people, and so far he has not found that the clothes he is wearing have been hooked off." ”

He paused, "Dean Song doesn't mind taking off the clothes he was wearing to show this king." ”

There was no inquiry.

Wei Xu stepped forward and took off Song Weizhe's shirt, Song Weizhe's body stiffened, and he didn't stop it.

Mu Yuanjing took the shirt, looked through the cuffs, and soon found the scratched place, which he showed to the person in front of him.

Song Weizhe still stubbornly denied it: "How does the prince know that the minister's clothes were not scratched before?" ”

"After Qi Wenrui was killed, this king has carefully inspected this place, and there is no trace."

What was not originally there, but appeared at the scene where Qin Zhiyi was killed, has already explained the problem.

Song Weizhe's face was completely defeated, "How did the prince guess the minister's hiding place?" ”

"The most dangerous place is the safest place, this king has been in contact with you when he was studying in the Sifang Academy, your personality is overconfident and conceited."

Song Weizhe laughed at himself, "The minister and the prince used to play, but they didn't win at that time, but I didn't expect that it is still a bad move now." ”

When Mu Yuanjing was studying, Song Weizhe was Mr. Chess of Sifang Academy, and the few contacts between the two were when they were playing, Song Weizhe had a gentle and generous personality at that time, but Mu Yuanjing still saw Gu Pan's self-pride under his well-disguised surface.

Song Weizhe is really talented and hardworking, otherwise he would not have been promoted to dean by Emperor Chengde, but his cleverness was not used in the right place.

Mu Yuanjing looked at Song Weizhe, "Why did you kill someone?" ”

Song Weizhe did not change his demeanor except for his face being a little pale.

"Since the prince can find me in the secret room, I'm afraid the truth is almost guessed."

Mu Yuanjing did not deny it, "This king still needs you to answer some questions. ”

Song Weizhe kept his mouth shut, and it didn't seem that he was going to speak.

"Have you ever wondered what the world would say about you if the things you did were spread out?"

Mu Yuanjing guessed that Song Weizhe didn't dare to let the matter spread, otherwise he wouldn't have gone to great lengths to control Qin Zhiyi and Qi Wenrui to throw the corpses.

Mu Yuanjing was not wrong.

A trace of panic crossed Song Weizhe's face, "If the prince wants to know, I can tell you everything." “

He paused, "It's just that I also have something I want to ask the prince to answer." ”

Mu Yuanjing's expression was slightly cold, "You are not qualified to bargain with this king." ”

When Song Weizhe's face was dejected, Mu Yuanjing said lightly, "If your answer can satisfy this king, maybe this king will grant you what you ask." ”

Without waiting for him to react, Mu Yuanjing asked again, "Why did you kill so many people?" ”

Song Weizhe didn't answer immediately, and the color of memory rose on his face.

"Thirteen years ago, I was admitted to Tanhua, and was sent by the Emperor Taishang to teach in the Sifang Academy, the life of the academy is peaceful and tranquil, there is no officialdom and I am deceitful, my childhood sweetheart and my wife are very satisfied with such days, but she has changed in a few years."

Everyone present heard that the 'she' in Song Weizhe's words was the wife of his childhood sweetheart.

"She left the small courtyard where we lived together, quietly, at that time I would often stay in the academy, so when she changed, I didn't even notice it, and when I found out, I didn't know how many days she had been gone, and later, acquaintances told me that they had seen her in the country, and there was a man with her at that time, and they asked me why she left."

Speaking of this, Song Weizhe laughed self-deprecatingly, "What a coincidence, the question they want to know the answer to is exactly what I want to ask her, but my self-esteem does not allow me to run in front of her to ask questions, so I told my acquaintances that I have divorced from her, and it has nothing to do with me who she remarries." ”

Su Qingmo's mood was a little complicated, "Have you never resented her?" ”

Song Weizhe looked at Su Qingmo, "I really didn't complain about her at the beginning, because all my time was spent thinking about why she left me, but gradually, my heart twisted with time. ”

Su Qingmo was not confused by his words, she hit the nail on the head and said: "You didn't blame her, you hated her." ”

Song Weizhe's emotions were excited because of these words, and the mask of peace was torn off.

He looked at Su Qingmo coldly and asked, "Why can't I hate her?" She hooked up with someone behind my back and ended up running away with that person, she's a slut. ”

The last two words are said with great force.

Mu Yuanjing blocked Song Weizhe's gaze staring at Su Qingmo, and said with a cold face: "You really don't tell the truth?" ”

Song Weizhe returned to his previous calm appearance, "What I said is the truth. ”

Mu Yuanjing didn't look at him again, and called in a deep voice: "Bring people in." ”

Everyone turned their eyes and saw a woman dressed as a woman standing outside the door, her appearance was not beautiful, but she looked very comfortable.

The woman was followed by two maids, who carefully guarded her as she lifted her legs to enter the door.

Song Weizhe showed a hideous look after seeing the woman's appearance clearly, if it wasn't for Wei Xu's timely action, he would have pounced on it a long time ago.

The woman walked in and blessed Mu Yuanjing and Su Qingmo slightly, "Folk woman Jiang Qian, meet the King of Linchuan, meet the Princess of Linchuan." ”

As soon as Jiang Qian's words were finished, Song Weizhe began to scold: "Slut, you dare to appear in front of me. ”

Jiang Qian's face remained unchanged, and he didn't even glance at Song Weizhe.

Song Weizhe was still scolding, Wei Xu was noisy, and clicked on his dumb hole.

After Fang Mubei saw the movements of the two maids beside Jiang Qian's side, he said tentatively: "Madame, do you need a chair?" ”

Jiang Qian smiled gratefully, "No need, the fetus in the womb is very stable, and besides, I will leave before I can say a few words." ”

Song Weizhe stared at Jiang Qian's stomach deadly, his eyes split.

Jiang Qian looked at Mu Yuanjing, "The poison on Yuan'er's body before, thank you for your help." ”

It turned out that the wife of the childhood sweetheart that Song Weizhe said before was Jiang Yuan's stepmother, the wife of Jiang Cheng, a cabinet scholar, after the hidden guard brought Jiang Yuan to the palace, Dr. Li prepared an antidote for Jiang Yuan, and Jiang Yuan was sent home after detoxification.

The hidden guard accidentally saw the birthmark on Jiang Qian's palm, thought of the file about Song Weizhe's wife that he had read before, buried doubts in his heart, and reported it to Mu Yuanjing after returning to the academy.

After learning the news, Mu Yuanjing sent hidden guards to find out all the identity and background of Jiang Qian's family, and only then did he know that Jiang Qian's family turned out to be Song Weizhe's divorced wife.

It's just that the process of separation is not the same as what Song Weizhe said, Jiang Qian's family did not say goodbye, it was Jiang Cheng who put pressure behind his back to make Song Weizhe write a book of harmony, although Jiang Cheng's approach was not advisable, but Mu Yuanjing, who knew the reason for the separation, felt that it was excusable.

Mu Yuanjing saved Jiang Yuan, and this favor had to be returned, so after learning everything, Jiang Cheng generously let the hidden guard take Jiang Qian's family, and everything Song Weizhe said in Qin Zhiyi's room, Jiang Qian's family heard it outside the door.

Mu Yuanjing asked Jiang Qian's family: "Do you disagree with Dean Song's words?" ”

Jiang Qian glanced at Song Weizhe, put his eyes on him for the first time, and said slowly: "Before the reconciliation with Song Weizhe, the women and others had no choice, as for the reason for the reconciliation."

As if feeling a little unspeakable, Jiang Qian paused for a long time, looked away from Song Weizhe, and said softly: "Song Weizhe seen by outsiders is a gentle and generous person, but he is often violent to me at home, and sometimes I can't get out of bed for many days when my hands are heavy." ”

Her eyes were faintly red, and her gaze was looking into nothingness, "even when she was in Dunlun, she would do it"

The injuries under the bodies of the thirteen female corpses in the bamboo forest and the well were explained.

Everyone present looked a little unsightly because of Jiang Qian's words, especially Su Qingmo, Mu Yuanjing looked angry when he saw her for the first time.

She walked up to Song Weizhe, who was controlled by Wei Xu, and slapped him twice with all her strength.

Song Weizhe may have been slapped by a woman for the first time in his life, his expression was stunned for a moment, and then he struggled desperately in Wei Xu's hands, looking at her with eyes that couldn't wait to eat Su Qingmo.

Su Qingmo shot again when he glared at him, and after the fight, Song Weizhe had obvious red marks on his face.

Su Qingmo lowered his voice and said coldly: "Don't worry, the prince will definitely reward you with a neat death." ”

With that, she turned and walked away.

Mu Yuanjing didn't want to give Song Weizhe another chance to speak, his reason for killing people was nothing other than jealousy and distortion of his personality, the twelve girls in the bamboo forest should be kidnapped in the same way as Qi Wenrui's method of kidnapping Qiu Kang's sister, as for killing one person every two months, I am afraid that Song Weizhe is also afraid that he will be easy to be discovered if he shoots too often.

As for Qi Wenrui, it was obvious that he only came to the academy more than a month ago, but the time when Qiu Kang's sister was kidnapped was two months ago, and Mu Yuanjing was no longer interested.

He glanced at Song Weizhe, who still had anger on his face, and said to Wei Xu: "Record what he has done in detail, publicize it overnight, and behead him in public at noon tomorrow." ”

Wei Xu's jaw leader ordered, and the hidden guard stepped forward to tie Song Weizhe strongly, and then dragged people away.

After Song Weizhe left, Jiang Qian was faintly relieved, although she was married to Jiang Cheng, she still couldn't help but be afraid when facing Song Weizhe, and she actually admired Su Qingmo when she made a move.

Su Qingmo's behavior seemed to tell her that when a woman encounters injustice, she should not endure or retreat.

"This king has something I want to verify with my wife."

Mu Yuanjing's voice interrupted Jiang Qian's contemplation, and she said respectfully, "Lord Wang, please speak." ”

"How did Madame and Master Jiang meet?"

Jiang Cheng's talent Mu Yuanjing is appreciated, it is precisely because of this appreciation, so he can't let Jiang Cheng have a trace of stain on his body, if Jiang Qian's acquaintance with Jiang Cheng and Jiang Cheng has a hidden secret, Mu Yuanjing will take action to erase this stain, so that Jiang Cheng can do things for Emperor Mu Yuan of Wu'an without worries in the future in the court.

Jiang Qian is smart, she knows that Mu Yuanjing's words have no side meaning, "Don't worry, the prince can rest assured, there is nothing wrong with the people and their husbands when they have known each other since childhood. ”

After receiving Jiang Qian's affirmative answer, Mu Yuanjing did not continue to ask.

"If the prince has nothing else to do, the women want to retire first."

It was already dark, and Jiang Qian's family couldn't go back to the house, so Mu Yuanjing said to Fang Mubei: "Prepare a room for Mrs. Jiang, and send people back properly tomorrow." ”

Jiang Qian's blessing body thanked Mu Yuanjing, and nodded at Su Qingmo with a smile as he left.

Su Qingmo smiled back, and Jiang Qian followed Fang Mubei and left.

After a few days of unrest, the group finally slept peacefully, and the next day the group left the Sifang Academy, which was temporarily closed.

Song Weizhe's crime has been announced overnight, and there is still a little time before noon, and the people have spontaneously gathered at the entrance of the vegetable market, and Song Weizhe was escorted into the court by hidden guards.

The people took out rotten eggs and rotten vegetable leaves prepared in advance and threw them at him, and Song Weizhe's face was extremely ugly.

He changed out of the dean's regular clothes, knelt on the Xingtai in a thin prison robe, and his dumb hole was never untied.

As soon as the hour came, under the supervision of Mu Yuanjing, the big man on the beheading platform raised and fell with a knife, ending Song Weizhe's life.

Mu Yuanjing and Su Qingmo returned to the palace, and within a few days, Su Qingmo had a serious illness, and the high fever did not go away for several days.

Doctor Li withdrew his hand to diagnose the pulse and said to Mu Yuanjing: "Lord, after the princess took the blood from her heart, she has been weak and weak, and now for some reason, she has the symptoms of cold entering the body. ”

"The princess fainted in the snow a few days ago, could it have something to do with it?"

Doctor Li stroked his beard, nodded and said: "It must be the cold air contaminated at that time, the prince can rest assured, now the princess's continuous high fever is because the body is expelling the cold qi in the body, and the fever will be reduced after tonight, and you can take some medicine to replenish qi and blood in the future." ”

Mu Yuanjing relaxed his eyebrows after hearing this, and waved his hand to let Dr. Li leave, after Dr. Li left, he changed the cloth towel on Su Qingmo's forehead, and told Qingrui and Qinghe to guard her, and then left Moxiangju and went to the study.

Yongan did not stay in Moxiangju, but waited in the study, and when he saw Mu Yuanjing come in, he handed over the invitation card in his hand.

"Lord, this is an invitation to the palace banquet, and it is the person invited by the emperor."

Mu Yuanjing opened it after taking it, quickly read it, and when he saw a name, his eyes stopped, "When did King Yongding return to Beijing?" ”

Yongding Wang Mu Yuanyi, and Anping Princess Mu Yuanrou are sisters and brothers, married to Zhou Yuetong, the eldest daughter of Zhou Chengxiang.

Not long ago, Mu Yuanjing had asked the dark line lying in ambush beside Mu Yuanrou to incite Mu Yuanrou to recall Mu Yuanyi, but he didn't expect it to succeed so easily.

Yongan said: "Back to the prince, it has been more than half a month since the king of Yongding returned to Beijing. ”

Mu Yuanjing closed the invitation, tapped his fingers on it a few times, and then stopped, "Let the people we planted next to Mu Yuanyi find out the purpose of his return to Beijing as soon as possible." ”

Yongan was ordered to wait by the side.

Mu Yuanjing thought about it, and after not giving an explanation, he said to him: "Go." ”

After Yong'an left, Mu Yuanjing walked to the bookcase, laid out the rice paper, picked up the pen and wrote the word 'Yi', he looked at the words on the paper with deep meaning in his eyes, and after a while, he picked up the paper and threw it into the smoker used to warm his hands in the study room to burn it, and then went out of the study.

Although Emperor Wu'an Mu Yuancheng has collected the imperial power, Mu Yuanjing has never speculated with the worst malice that Mu Yuanrou and Mu Yuanyi's sister and brother will not be at ease at ease, especially Mu Yuanyi, as the most favored prince of Emperor Chengde, how could he be willing to be a prince only in the fiefdom, if he was willing, he would not be easily instigated by Mu Yuanrou to return to Beijing.

Mu Yuanjing walked on the road to Moxiangju, facing the small snowflakes rushing in his face, and suddenly had a premonition in his heart.

A blizzard is coming.
