Chapter 184: Clues

Qianqian . , the fastest update of the latest chapter of the concubine!

Three days passed in the case of Miss He's murder, and nothing progressed.

Lu Zhiyuan drank Ye Zongping, and both of them couldn't help but feel worried, they both knew that this matter must have something to do with Miss He's cousin Sun Zhou. But the problem now is that Sun Zhou had a witness at the time of the crime, and he was drinking with friends in a tavern.

In the past few days, Su Shi has been running to her side very diligently, and the two women often chatter and talk about something when they get together, and the relationship between the two has become much closer. Bai Zhi found that Su Shi's words had been very effective since she persuaded Su Shi last time, and she was obviously not as suspicious as she was before these days.

However, recently, Su seems to have opened another important ability, which is the common problem of women, gossip. Just like on this day, Su Shi walked into the door with her stomach like a fly, and Bai Zhi's heart trembled when she saw the fiery posture, and she didn't know that she thought she had a pillow stuffed in her stomach.

"Sister, slow down, be careful of hurting the child." Bai Zhi hurriedly helped her sit down.

"Wait, that's big news." Su Shi didn't care at all, reached out and touched his bulging belly, "I've been well-behaved lately, and I haven't bothered me at all." ”

"What's the news?" As soon as Bai Zhi saw her mysterious appearance, she knew that Su must have heard what was going on outside again, and couldn't wait to share it with her.

Su Shi is talking about the matter and the He family.

Miss He is getting married.

"Huh?" Bai Zhi's mouth was so shocked when she heard the news that she couldn't close it, "How many Miss He are in this He family?" ”

After asking this, she felt redundant, and a few Miss He did not have the reason to do a happy event immediately after a funeral at home.

"Just one, Miss He is the only daughter of He Yuanwai." Su Shi leaned over and said in a low voice.

"Then how do you get married?" Bai Zhi couldn't figure it out anymore, where to get married when everyone was gone.

Su's expression instantly became sophisticated and complicated, "People can get married even if they die." ”

Bai Zhi didn't understand it at first, but after a little thought, she understood, and at the same time, she was even more surprised. She remembered two words that made her can't help but feel a chill down her back.

Yin marriage.

If a child dies before they get married, the elders of the family are afraid that he will be bullied by a homeless ghost in the underworld, so they will look nearby to see if there is a man and a woman who have also just died to marry.

Miss He is only sixteen this year, and He Yuanwai has such an only daughter, thinking that she is afraid that she will be lonely, so she wants to give her a family affair.

Pity the hearts of parents all over the world, Bai Zhi thought that she was also a little uncomfortable for that person, what kind of pain should it be for a white-haired person to send a black-haired person.

"It's not uncommon to be worthy of a dead man." Su Shi saw that she had misunderstood, and hurriedly explained, "This time it is a big living person." ”

"Huh?"

She couldn't help but be surprised.

The customs of yin marriage vary from place to place, but there is a common saying, that is, the marriage of the living is the best, saying that if there are people in the yang world, no one in the underworld will dare to bully the ghost with the master. Although there is this statement, the marriage of living people is really a bit cruel, and the matter is inhumane, so it is gradually abolished.

"Who's that worth?"

"You should have heard of this person, it is Sun Zhou, the cousin of Miss He's family." Su Shi didn't sell it anymore, and directly told all the news she knew.

Sun Zhou personally went to find He Yuanwai, and tearfully told him how he and Miss He were childhood sweethearts and sincere feelings, and at the end said that he was willing to marry Miss He as his wife and begged He Yuanwai to fulfill it.

When this person was alive, He Yuanwai looked down on Sun Zhou, but this person Miss He was gone, but Sun Zhou was willing to come to marry at this time, which was undoubtedly a blessing in disguise, where would He Yuanwai disagree.

After this matter was spread, everyone outside said that Sun Zhou was a good person, after all, many people knew that He Yuanwai disliked Sun Zhou's poverty earlier, and this would make him willing to marry Miss He regardless of his previous suspicions, and anyone who heard it would praise his deep friendship.

After listening to this, Bai Zhi also felt that Sun Zhou was a rare good person, and she and Su Shi were very emotional that Miss He could meet someone who treated her sincerely.

When Lord Lu came back in the evening, Bai Zhi told her about it, and sighed at the end.

"As soon as I said you know how to use your brain, you immediately hit back to square one." Lu Zhiyuan shook his head and flicked it on her forehead very helplessly, and she covered her head in pain.

"I don't know how to use my brain."

"Dare to quibble. There is a big problem with this Sun Zhou. Lord Lu squinted at her as he spoke, and said lightly, "He will deceive you women in this way." ”

"Why do you think that things have something to do with Sun Zhou, maybe he really likes Miss He." Bai Zhi didn't agree with his words, "You said that he had a problem, isn't there no evidence." ”

Speaking of evidence, Lu Zhiyuan couldn't help frowning, this is also a question that has plagued him for several days, Sun Zhou does have witnesses, or many witnesses.

But in his heart, he decided that this matter must have something to do with Sun Zhou, not to mention anything else, when he He Ye Zongping went to Sun Zhou for the first time, his state was very problematic.

"I ask you, if one day someone you don't know comes and tells you that I was killed outside. What will happen to you? Lu Zhiyuan suddenly asked.

Bai Zhi was stunned when she was asked, she thought about it and smiled, "How can I believe it, I haven't seen it with my own eyes, I want to see people alive and dead to see corpses, how can I be gullible because of a stranger's words." ”

"That's right." Lu Zhiyuan nodded.

At that time, Lu Zhiyuan and Ye Zong were looking for Sun Zhou, and as soon as the two of them revealed their identities, they didn't wait to speak, then Sun Zhou's first reaction was panic, and then when they said that Miss He was killed, Sun Zhou immediately showed an expression of pain after hearing it, and he didn't even have a surprise and suspicion from beginning to end.

Bai Zhi asked him what was wrong, Lu Zhiyuan didn't say much, he went to the study alone, sorted out the incident and a series of clues he currently had on a piece of paper, and then looked at it a few times, trying to find some breakthroughs in it.

Just when he was looking for evidence to prove that Sun Zhou had a problem, another incident happened.

The murderer was caught.

This murderer is none other than the ruthless father of the four maids that Bai Zhi just received a few days ago, named Wang Touzi.

Bai Zhi's first reaction when she heard about this incident was not to believe it, she had heard the fourth girl talk about her father, who was a typical kind of person who coerced at home outside.

But the facts did not allow her not to believe it, this matter was conclusive, and the Wang Touzi's home was searched for Miss He's missing money bag and the gold lock around her neck.

Wang Touzi is notoriously bad in the neighborhood, gambling addiction, newborn daughters can be sold for silver gambling money can be a good thing. Some years ago, Wang Touzi lost a lot of money in the casino, borrowed a large amount of money, and in recent days he was forced to be cornered by creditors, and he hid in Tibet every day.

Just two days ago, he suddenly appeared again, swaggered into the casino, and as soon as he made a move, he was more than a dozen taels of silver, and he didn't feel distressed if he lost it all, saying that he was going to make a fortune in the future.

A poor man suddenly became rich, and many people were very curious and wanted to inquire about where his money came from.

Naturally, those people would not stop there, and pretended to invite the king's chief to drink, and after getting him drunk, they went to his house, and finally found dozens of taels of silver and a gold lock under the bed.

The money and the golden locks were taken by those people, and the money was quickly spent, and the golden locks were sent to the pawnshop to be exchanged for silver.

Miss He was killed, and some important items were made into portraits in the yamen and sent to various shops in the city, especially pawnshops. So when someone went to the pawnshop with the golden lock, the pawnshop owner immediately sent someone to inform the government of the news, and the man was caught red-handed. After careful inquiry, he found the king's head.

When the government arrived, the king was unconscious, and was lying on the bed sleeping like a dead pig, and finally woke up after being poured water.

According to Wang Touzi's confession, things have nothing to do with him, these silver and gold locks appeared in his house inexplicably, he was chased by debt collection for a few days and did not go home, but as soon as he opened the door, he saw a silver bag on the table, and when he opened it, there were more than 20 taels of silver and a beautiful gold lock.

He lost half of the money on the first day at the pawnshop, and before he could spend the rest, he was arrested.

After listening to Wang Touzi's explanation, Ye Zongping immediately slapped the startled wood angrily, "Full of nonsense, you don't know the origin of the silver, is it possible that there is a special trip to frame you with the silver!" ”

Wang Touzi was already scared stupid, he originally thought about whether the God of Wealth took care of him, so he gave him a sum of silver, but he didn't think that this silver was even involved in a murder, if he had known that he would not dare to ask for it.

"Lord Qingtian, the little wrong, I don't know anything, this silver is really on my table." Wang Touzi cried a handful of snot and tears, but his words obviously had no credibility. Ye Zongping naturally would not believe such a ridiculous statement, and immediately sent someone to detain him pending trial.

Wang Touzi has a very bad character outside, and he is famous in ten miles and eight towns, and it is absolutely possible for such a person to kill people and set fire for money, so he is simply very happy to be arrested, and outsiders have to say that there is evil retribution.

He Yuanwai rushed to the yamen as soon as he heard the news, accompanied by his prospective son-in-law Sun Zhou, and both of them unanimously demanded that the king must be severely punished so that he would have evil retribution.

Ye Zongping also had some unspeakable doubts in his heart about Wang Touzi being the murderer, but now that the physical evidence has been found, the evidence is conclusive, and the family of the deceased strongly demands that the sentence be pronounced as soon as possible, he naturally has no reason not to sentence.

The king's leader murdered and robbed and was sentenced to beheading.

The news was very happy when it came outside, and it was said that Bai Zhi was here, and the four girls knelt on the ground and kowtowed to her, crying while kowtowing, and what she asked for was naturally the murder of her father.

"You get up first, I really can't do anything about this." Bai Zhi looked at the four girls with a large blue on their foreheads, and she was really a little unbearable, but it was natural to kill people to pay for their lives, and she really couldn't help.
