Chapter 69: Amazing Speculation

Xia Zhi still had a glimmer of hope in his heart, hoping to persuade Huang Dexing to rein in the precipice and tell Murong Cheng the origin of those people. Huang Dexing finally had the opportunity to make a fortune, and he hated Murong Cheng in his heart, where would he listen to her advice?

The two were at a stalemate, seeing that someone came out of the mountain, Huang Dexing was afraid that the matter would be revealed, and the evil was born from the side of the bold, revealing his hideous face, picking up a wooden stick on the side, and breaking Xia Zhi's legs alive.

A sudden sharp pain caused Xia Solstice to scream and immediately fall unconscious. When he woke up again, he was tied by Huang Dexing's hands, gagged his mouth, and locked in his own firewood room, and his legs had lost their intuition and could not move.

At that time, the bad news that all 58 members of the Murong Villa family were killed had spread throughout Handan City. Even though Xia Zhi was trapped in the house and had no freedom, he could still hear the villagers coming and going outside loudly scolding and cursing the murderers of the Murong family. It's a pity that I can't speak.

Huang Dexing put Xia Zhi under house arrest, saying that she was crazy because she couldn't bear the blow, and she couldn't see people with nonsense.

Huang Dexing's popularity is not good, and no one cares about the life or death of the summer solstice, especially on the cusp of the Murong case, no one has to investigate whether the almost hysterical Xia Solstice is really bad brain.

Fortunately, Huang Dexing swore in front of Murong Cheng and Mrs. Murong that he would not treat Xia Zhi badly, so he never abandoned her. After getting rich overnight, he did a lot of injustice and did all the bad things, but he finally left the summer solstice alive.

Huang Dexing threatened Xia Zhi, saying that those people have eyes and ears all over the world, if she talks nonsense and spreads any rumors, she will definitely lose her life.

Xia Zhi knew what she said, and others would not believe it, not to mention that Huang Dexing began to collude with the government and had close contacts, which made her have a deeper sense of fear. In order to save her life, she chose to remain silent, barely survived, and watched Huang Dexing do evil with a cold eye, only looking forward to the day when good and evil will be rewarded, and the blood feud of the Murong family will also see the light of day.

Nuoya originally thought that the only clue to the blood feud of the Murong family was the killer pavilion master, but she didn't expect to turn around and hear the reasons behind these things.

She bit her silver teeth secretly, hating Huang Dexing so much that the roots of her teeth hurt, and she couldn't wait to stab a few more holes in his corpse. She asked Xia Zhi in a trembling voice: "Who are the people who came to find Huang Dexing to plot that day, do you have any impression?" ”

Xia Zhi nodded categorically: "On that day, one of them wore a hat covering the eaves and couldn't see his face clearly, holding two heavy iron balls in his hands, constantly rotating, and saying little, but the other looked quite in awe of him. The other man was not tall and looked a little vicious. Over the years, they have never come to the mansion again, and Huang Dexing has been secretive about the identities of the two, and I don't know about it. ”

Xia Zhi's description of the mysterious hat man made Noya involuntarily think of the Killer Pavilion Master, and he should be undoubted. So who is the other one?

Xia Zhi carefully described the appearance of the man to Noya, and instructed the girl to take out a box from under the statue of Guanyin in the Buddha Hall, open it, take out a slightly yellowed portrait from it, and hand it to Noya: "I am afraid that I will one day blur the impression of that person, so I have already painted his portrait." It's just that I'm not good at drawing, so I can only draw six or seven points of similarity. ”

Noya took the portrait and unfolded it, the man was plain-looking, a little fierce, and looked a little familiar between his eyebrows, but he couldn't think of where he had seen it anyway.

She carefully picked it up and asked about other things about Huang Dexing, because Xia Zhi had been closed in the Buddhist hall, so he didn't know what bad things Huang Dexing had done over the years, and who he had contact with. She asked Noah to go to Huang Dexing's more trusted housekeeper to ask, maybe there would be a harvest.

Noah comforted him for a while, then turned around and left the temple.

As soon as Huang Dexing died, the entire Huang Mansion was in chaos. Xu is Huang Dexing has done a lot of bad things, even if he married many concubines, he didn't leave a man and a woman, and now the trees are falling and scattered, and the entire Huang Mansion is surrounded by the people who watch the excitement, which is very happy. Those concubines cried and cried for a long time, so they made their own plans, busy collecting the ill-gotten wealth in the house, and wanted to take advantage of the chaos to escape and fend for themselves, so as not to cause another turmoil in the future, and both people and money would be empty.

The subordinates of the Huang Mansion are also the masters who bully the soft and fear the hard, and now they have no control, and they all take the opportunity to salvage oil and water, and then look for the dog leg that Xia Zhi said, he has already rolled up the money and ran away without a trace.

It is said that the bones are not cold, and it has only been a day since Huang Dexing died, and the entire Huang Mansion has been changed beyond recognition. Huang Dexing's body was still hanging on the bed without covering it, and the people in the house began to make their own plans, and because of the uneven distribution of the spoils, they quarreled so much.

Xia Zhi is also a person from Murong Mansion, not to mention that although Huang Dexing is guilty, Xia Zhi is affectionate and righteous to Baili Mansion, and Nuoya can't sit idly by, so he stopped those who have ill intentions and announced a ban, and no one is allowed to leave Huang Mansion without permission until the case is closed.

According to the meaning of the summer solstice, Huang Dexing's mansion is full of ill-gotten gains, so she plans to dismiss the concubines and servants, and return the rest to the people of Handan City.

Nuoya can't call the shots for the time being, the stakes are very high, whether Huang Dexing's family wealth will be confiscated or left to it is not something he can decide. She re-elected an honest and reliable servant to handle some of the follow-ups.

Huang Dexing's study, Nuoya ordered someone to guard it strictly, and when Bailijiu came over, he would search it carefully.

Bailijiu quickly hurried over. There is no doubt that the prefect You Daoju was also killed in his room, and the death was the same as Huang Dexing. Because the situation in the government was complicated, and the people with ill intentions were eyeing him, Bailijiu did not dare to leave without permission, and waited until his own people arrived before he began to carry out a careful interrogation investigation.

He gained more than Noya, and found a lot of correspondence in the study, which confirmed the crime of colluding with the prefect and Huang Dexing to mine in the mountains and forge weapons. After careful consideration, Baili Jiu sent all the circumstances here to the capital as soon as possible, waiting for the emperor to decide.

After all, this crime is heinous, it is a big and important case, which is related to the national fortune and stability of Dachu, and it will also involve the investigation of the real culprit behind the scenes in the later stage, as well as how many weapons have been forged in the mountain over the years and where they have been transported, this must be paid attention to and investigated immediately.

This responsibility is too heavy, Bailijiu, as a military attachΓ©, is not within the scope of his authority, and he is not good at asking cases. What's more, he doesn't want to get involved in such a right and wrong, the involvement behind this kind of case is too complicated, bloody, and it is very easy to make it difficult for him to ride a tiger.

Bailijiu brought soldiers over and carried out a detailed search and interrogation of the Huang Mansion, but with little success. Huang Dexing was extremely cautious, and he had a premonition in advance, and burned all the important letters and incriminating evidence.

Noya told the matter of the summer solstice to Baili 91510, only that the Killer Pavilion did everything in order to kill people, and even colluded with the ruffians and hooligans to resort to such despicable means.

Baili Jiu pondered for a long time, with a solemn face, before he said: "Noya, I don't think the matter of Murong Mansion is so simple. ”

Nuoya didn't understand, and Bailijiu patiently analyzed her: "I learned from the letters and records on the prefect's mansion and the archives that I didn't have time to burn that Huang Dexing colluded with the prefect Youdaoju to mine the mineral deposits in the mountains eight years ago, after the death of Murong Villa. ”

How smart Nuoya is, Baili Jiu immediately understood what he meant with just a few words: "You mean, my Murong family's tragic death is related to mining?" ”

Baili Jiu nodded: "This matter should not be a simple coincidence. Although it is said that it is indeed the Killer Pavilion who killed your family, but who is the real culprit behind the scenes, except for the Pavilion Master, none of us knows. Why did that man buy a murderer, slaughter the whole village with such a large sump, and burn down the mountain village with a fire, leaving not a single grass behind? I think it's most likely because of this mine. ”

Baili Jiu's words made Nuoya extremely surprised, she originally thought that the tragic death of the Murong family was just an ordinary grudge in the rivers and lakes, and she provoked some cruel and vicious people, but she never thought that such a conspiracy would be involved.

"Most likely, the murderer behind the scenes discovered the mineral deposits here and wanted to build a weapon forge in the mountains. And Murong Villa occupies the mountain, and it is also the transportation artery. And because of his father-in-law's fame, people on the rivers and lakes often haunt the neighborhood, which is extremely unsafe, and it is a great threat to their plans.

That person may want to find his father-in-law to join forces, or let Murong Villa move as a whole, or his father-in-law may have inadvertently discovered some of his secrets, and any situation is possible. According to his father-in-law's behavior, he would definitely not be in the same league with that person and do such a detrimental deed to the country.

After refusing righteously, the other party became angry, and he caused a murderous opportunity, using Huang Dexing to stun your family, and bribing the people of the Killer Pavilion to assassinate and destroy the door. In this way, the entire Murong Villa was wiped out, and he had no worries at all, using Huang Dexing as a signboard, blocking the entire mountain, mining and excavation, and after the later maturity, he began to forge weapons.

That's why, for so many years, there have been very few coal shipments in Huang Dexing's mines. One is used to make iron, and the other is to try not to be ostentatious and arouse the suspicion of others. ”

Baili Jiu's words are reasonable and well-founded, and the analysis is not leaky. After hearing this, Nuoya suddenly realized: "I am still strange these days, although I betrayed the Killer Pavilion, but I will not go out for almost all the elders of my country, and issue a reward of 30,000 taels of silver, bent on putting me to death. Moreover, the antidote pavilion master of the deboning incense had already agreed to hand it over to Tiansha, but he temporarily changed his hexagram.

Now that I think about it, it must have been me who confiscated the man's saber when I passed through Handan City, took it for my own use, and spent money to ask Orion about the news of the mineral deposits, which made the other party suspect that I was suspicious and startled the snake. And I recovered my memory in Murong Villa, went on a killing spree, and exposed my identity, so the other party will kill people at all costs! ”
