Chapter 42: The Second Lady Kills!
Da Tan answered, and after he left, Fang Fei sat down in front of the bookcase, spread out the paper and pen, and listed the names of all the people involved in the Yinzi money one by one, and then repeatedly connected them and reasoned - although he knew that it was in vain to do this, because since the main messenger behind the scenes had the ability to attract many noble ladies in Los Angeles to dig out their own family funds, then he must have already prepared a countermeasure.
But she always had an intuition, that is, this matter was not over yet, and it was very likely that the other party was coming for the Yin Mansion.
Will it be He Biao's sister and brother? Fang Fei didn't dare to be sure, after all, even if He Biao was really promoted to a state lieutenant, an official from the fifth grade, would dare to even hack the money of the prefect's wife?
She couldn't figure it out, and when she was at a loss, she heard that Hongfu hurriedly opened the bead curtain and came in, and said in a hurry: "Lady, the second lady just ran out of the back door with the fifth lady!" It is said that she is going to find Mrs. Wang, who introduced her to Yinzi Qian, and says that she must get her hard-earned money back! ”
Fang Fei was speechless when she heard this, and replied, "What about the second uncle?" Does he know? ”
"You know, there's nothing in the house that you don't know at this time, right? But I heard that the second master did not stop Madame, but only said to go with her. ”
"I know, you go outside and give an order, if the second aunt comes back, come and tell me immediately."
But until dusk fell, dinner was delivered from the kitchen, and the second lady and Yin Qiongzhi did not return.
At this moment, Fang Fei couldn't help but have doubts, and then sent Hongfu to inquire about the news: "The second aunt has been gone for so long, it can't be that something happened, right?" ”
As soon as she finished speaking, she heard a bustling noise coming from the front yard of the house. Fang Fei walked out of Hexiangwu with a red whisk, came to the front yard to take a look, only to see the gate of the Yin Mansion open, and a group of officials came in, the leader of the person seemed to be a little familiar, and said to the butler who greeted him with an arrogant face: "The second lady and the fifth lady in your house are suspected of murder, and now the evidence of the crime has been conclusive and has been detained in the prison." This is a detention order, and when the state capital passes in a few days, your family members can come and observe! ”
One stone stirred up a thousand waves, and these words stunned everyone at once.
And Yin Congshan, who had been staying in his room waiting for news from his wife and daughter, was even more shocked, and when he saw that the official was leaving, he also went up to hold the family: "You said that my wife and daughter killed someone?" No, it can't be! They are just weak women, how can they kill people? ”
"You just have to go and tell our prefect this, anyway, there are human and material evidence, and besides, the third lady in your house is also one of the eyewitnesses. You can go and ask her. ”
I heard that the third lady, who has rarely gone out, is still an eyewitness, and everyone is even more confused.
Yin Congshan was the most anxious, and when he heard this official say this, he was going to find someone in the third room, but he didn't want to, so he just turned around and heard the little guy next to him whisper: "Master, the third lady has just come back......
By this time, it was almost dark, and candles were lit in the front yard. There was only one maid beside the third lady, and the faces of the master and servant were very ugly when they entered the door, and there was a faint gloomy atmosphere, which instantly suppressed everyone and muttered in their hearts.
"Brother and sister, I heard them say that your second sister-in-law killed someone? You were also there at the time, what the hell is going on? Can you tell me what happened, I'm dying! ”
was questioned by the second uncle, and the third lady slowly raised her head, but she didn't speak, just silent, and the whole person seemed to be in a state of mind.
This made Yin Congshan anxious, and after he urged a few times in a row and didn't hear back, he suddenly remembered: "Brother and sister, since you don't answer me, then I'll go find the third brother to come over." ”
"No need, second brother, I also heard about it. Don't worry, I'll ask Yin'er. ”
The third lady's maiden name is Yin'er, and everyone knows it for the first time. Then Fang Fei saw the third uncle say a few words to his wife with a gentle expression, and the third lady turned around from her sleepwalking state, and when she opened her mouth, it was shocking: "Yes, I saw with my own eyes that the second sister-in-law and the fifth lady killed Mrs. Wang together....... they killed Mrs. Wang together." ”
"What? How so? For her answer, Yin Congshan was simply thunderous, with a look of despair.
The late spring night was still a little humid and cold, but the east room in the yamen of Jingzhao Mansion was still brightly lit.
"How is it, Zichu, have you finished reading all the files here?"
With two heavy dark circles under his eyes, Yin Yang Yanming of Jingzhao Mansion stayed up until late at night with a few young people, and when he heard his question, Lu Zhaoming hurriedly raised his head and replied: "Almost, Lord Yang, by tomorrow morning at the latest, I will be able to count all the file records." ”
"Well, hard work. Then early tomorrow morning, we will go to meet His Royal Highness the Crown Prince. ”
As soon as Yang Yanming left, Xu Zhizhang immediately posted it over, and said with a sly smile: "Zichu, let's go have supper." ”
Lu Zhaoming didn't raise his head, still buried his head in the scroll: "If you don't go, I want to eat you." ”
"Don't mind, we're pretty much done with the work at hand anyway. After eating supper, I have the strength to continue working! ”
As he spoke, he didn't forget to scratch his head and stick it over, and said with a sad face: "You see that this time, in order to support your idea, I even put up with such a big green hat on my head." Now I want you to have a supper with me, why do you make it look like I'm forcing you to be a prostitute......"
He didn't finish his words, but it was Yang Yanming who went and returned. He wanted to tell the two not to stay up too late, but when he opened the door and saw the situation inside, he couldn't stop his old face from flushing.
"Well, it's okay...... I just want to tell you to rest early, hehe, rest early......"
Saying that, the well-informed Yang Mansion Yin turned around in a daze, and closed the door by the way, looking like he was sincerely not disturbing your nonsense.
Lu Zhaoming set his eyes on Xu Zhizhang's head close to his chest, and then realized that his shirt was slightly loosened, revealing a small piece of spring light.
Then he leaned back quickly, and said with a little disgust: "Get up." ”
Xu Zhizhang pursed his lips and replied: "There is something great, I also have what you have." ”
After speaking, in the end, it is inevitable to take a more look. After glancing at it, I felt that this body had to have a chest and a waist, which was really much stronger than my own figure.
And as a sworn friend, sacrificing so much for him this time, even if you glance at it occasionally, it's not too much.
Of course, he didn't dare to say this even if he was killed. Besides, it was when he stayed up all night until the sun and moon were gone.
"Hey, I just finished reading the files of the two workshops of Xingning and Changle in the past few years, and it seems that the household department is really a fat shortage! In the past few years, the number of new households has increased unabated, and the imperial court has to allocate a sum of money to reward childbirth. After a few years, the new households came up, and the court used the silver in the rest of the scarce places. Hey, among the six departments, they are the only ones who dare to hold the emperor's treasury silver, not only that, but also along with the generals. Tsk, good abacus, good brain, I'm really ashamed of myself. ”
Lu Zhaoming remembered the Wen Sheng family of Yunyin Temple, and also carefully checked some of the neighbors who lived with them back then on the file, and confirmed that his mother's words were true, so he sneered: "Fortunately, we are not as good, otherwise we will really embark on this crooked and evil path, and it won't be long before this person will be stunned." ”
