Chapter Twenty-Six: To Fengyang

"What? Homicide? Zhong stood up from her chair in disbelief when she heard what was coming, her hand clenching the armrest hard, as if it would support her and keep her from falling, "You must be mistaken, he ...... Wen Liang is not very bold, how dare he kill someone? ”

The person who came to deliver the letter was a young man in his twenties, he raised his eyes and looked at the people in the hall, and said nervously: "The little one doesn't dare to say anything, it was indeed Wen Xiucai who killed someone, and my master had some friendship with Wen Xiucai, so he asked the little one to report the news." ”

Wen Gongshun had long been frightened by the news, and asked, "How is my son now?" ”

The report said: "Wen Xiucai is fine for the time being, although the people of the county government have detained him, but because he is a Xiucai, the trial of the case will wait until his fame is removed." ”

The laws of the Daguan Dynasty are actually quite perfect, and of course they are also quite strict, and murder is already considered a serious crime. Because of his gentleness and fame, he was given a buffer time.

Wen Gongshun knew that his son was safe and sound for the time being, so he forced himself to ask, "Who did he kill?" ”

"It's a female musician in Sile Garden, the one that Wen Xiucai ransomed for him, originally said that someone could take it away the next day, but Wen Xiucai had to meet the female musician the night before, and the next morning, the little girl who served saw the female music die in bed, and Wen Xiucai, who was alone with her, was naturally regarded as a murderer."

The young man who delivered the letter spoke clearly and explained the ins and outs of the matter clearly, which also made the hearts of everyone in the hall sink to the bottom.

Wen Gongshun took the money and sent the young man down, and he was about to get up, but as soon as he stood up, he felt that his eyes were dark, and he quickly sat down again.

Mrs. Wen was so anxious that she didn't know what to do, her son had an accident, and her husband couldn't do anything anyway, so she said repeatedly: "Go and call the doctor!" Fast! ”

Wen Gongshun waved his hand again and again, "No need, I'm getting up too fast." ”

He took a few breaths, turned his head and ordered, "Go and ask the young lady to come over!" ”

He thought that this matter was not a trivial matter, and he might have to ask Shen Zhongwen for help, but how could it be so coincidental, he was probably still thousands of miles away at this time!

As for whether Shen Zhongwen could help, he also beat a drum in his heart, but at the moment, he couldn't think of any other way.

Wen Xiu has lived these days, and she plans to go back, and when she saw someone coming to invite, she brought Shen Qingyu with her, planning to say goodbye to her parents.

Unexpectedly, as soon as I arrived in the hall, I saw my father with a sad face, and my mother cried into tears.

Wen Gongshun told her the truth of the matter word by word, which made her tremble when she heard it, and she asked in a trembling voice, "If the eldest brother is convicted, what will happen?" ”

The docile voice was not calm, "Whoever murders people, creates intentions, beheads." So as to add merit and hang. Those who do not merit will have a hundred rods and three thousand miles......"

Old Madam Wen cried out, "Won't my son survive? ”

Wen Gongshun ignored her and said to Wen Xiu: "See if you can repair a letter for your son-in-law and ask him to help think of a way!" ”

Although Wen Xiu has an average relationship with Wen Liang, how can she not be worried about her eldest brother in the end, and nodded: "I will write a letter immediately and ask someone to send it to him." ”

As she spoke, she asked someone to get a pen and paper, and she didn't need a bookcase, but wrote on the table where the tea was placed.

Shen Qingyu listened to half of the salary on the sidelines, and already knew what was going on, and felt that the act of sending a letter was unlikely to be useful.

Not to mention that the place where Shen Zhongwen went was far away, even if the letter was delivered? Can you expect Shen Zhongwen to rob the prison or what?

She thinks that the most important thing now should be to judge whether people are gentle and killing, yes or no, and there is still a big difference.

If not, of course it's best, if you solve the case, Wen Liang will naturally be fine.

If yes, then there is no way.

She looked at the mess of the adults in this room, and she didn't even have an idea, and raised her eyes to look at Wen Xiu, who was "writing hard", and finally knew who her character was.

"Shouldn't I send someone to see my uncle first? He must be sad to be alone over there, right? ”

Shen Qingyu suddenly spoke, making the somewhat noisy hall silent.

What to plug in?

Wen Gongshun was already a little uncomfortable when he saw Wen Xiu bringing Shen Qingyu up, and now he saw that this little girl actually spoke casually in front of the elders, and he felt that she didn't understand etiquette.

He originally wanted to teach Shen Qingyu a lesson, but after thinking about it, he felt that he should really go to Fengyang County to have a look.

Wen Liang has never suffered hardship, and I don't know how much of a crime I will suffer this time, so it's better to go and deal with it in advance.

After thinking about this, he naturally forgot about wanting to reprimand Shen Qingyu.

"Prepare the carriage, I'...... I...... I'm going to Fengyang County. "Wen Gongshun can't even speak completely, and he says a sentence intermittently.

He tried to stand up several times, but failed, and there were bursts of gold stars in front of him.

Zhong, who had been sluggish, finally came back to his senses, "Father, you are old, and your body will be unbearable when you go back and forth." You and your mother stay at home and let your daughter-in-law go. ”

Wen Gongshun glanced up at Zhong when he heard this, he was actually a little worried about Zhong's going, worried that Zhong would have a grudge against Wen Liang and not be satisfied.

He said "um", didn't say good, didn't say bad.

If he could move, he would naturally not need Zhong's, but he knew very well about his body that he could still sit now, and he was already holding on to his breath, and he might not be able to go out if he wanted to.

And Old Madam Wen has no idea, let alone hope, can she really only pin her hopes on the Zhong family?

He turned his head to look at Wen Xiu, who was writing a letter, it was better to ......

"Ah Xiu!" It's been a long time since Wen Gongshun has called Wen Xiu that.

Wen Xiu was stunned for a moment, raised her head, and asked, "Father?" ”

"My father and your mother are old, and you have no other brothers to rely on, see if you can accompany your sister-in-law to Fengyang County. She is a woman, and I really don't feel at ease. ”

Wen Gongshun thought that Wen Xiu and Wen Liang were close brothers and sisters, even if the Zhong family was not satisfied, it was impossible for Wen Xiu to watch her brother suffer. That's when I thought of letting Wen Xiu follow.

The corners of Shen Qingyu's mouth twitched when she heard this, the Zhong family is a woman, isn't her mother?

Wen Xiu didn't think much about it, so it was natural to be able to go to see the eldest brother, "My daughter and sister-in-law will go together." After that......"

She said that she suddenly didn't know what she could do when she went.

"Go and visit your eldest brother in prison, see if he is well fed and warmly dressed, see what the environment is, and if it is bad, see if you can change some money and wealth."

Gentle and obedient with a fatherly heart, it can be said that he will patronize whether his son will suffer hardship, and he can't think of anything serious.

Shen Qingyu secretly complained in her heart: Being able to say these words is simply a talent! Wen Liang is waiting to be judged, not on vacation!
