Chapter 48: The miserable wife who was deceived into marriage by the heavenly eunuch
Qiu Yu's case is not difficult to investigate, after all, Qiu Yu is a passion killing, and she is not a particularly smart person, after killing someone, she just threw the body out at night, and she didn't do anything to cover it up.
As for why the officials didn't find her, the reason is very simple, because the deceased did it too secretly in order to steal fish, and he checked his itinerary, he had never been to the alley where Qiu Yu lived!
Not only did he not go on the day he died, but his itinerary that day was still far away from that place, not to mention that the deceased had an excellent reputation, and he was also with his wife Qin Se and Ming, who would have thought that such a person would not only go to prostitution, but also find someone so old.
Sun Zhongming helped the official find the evidence of Xiao Er's lying, and then through Xiao Er's confession, he debunked the deception of the deceased's itinerary that day step by step, and finally found the deceased's real itinerary that day, so that Qiu Yu was caught.
When the truth about the cause of the deceased's death was revealed, the prefect could be said to be furious.
The reason why he spent a lot of effort to track down the murderer was because of his daughter's bitter pleading and his appreciation for this son-in-law.
But now, after the truth is revealed, it has all become a joke!
The guy who originally kept saying that he wanted to be good to his daughter for the rest of his life was such a playful child, and he hid it from them to prostitute it, men, how many of them are not greedy and lustful?
But what you fancy is not the beauty like flowers, but a half-old, and even if you find a half-old, you still want to be strong against an old woman of that age!!!
This made the prefect very angry, and the prefect's daughter cried even more sadly this time, but the object of the sadness changed.
used to be sad about his husband, but now he is sad about himself, why has he been deceived for so long by such a player!!
Because of the prefect's anger, Qiu Yu, a murderer, was not sentenced heavily, but because she had a reason to save her mother's heart, she was acquitted.
It's just that in this matter, the prefect is still angry with Qiu Yu.
Although the prefect ruled her not guilty, he turned around and ordered her to marry quickly, if she didn't get married within three months, the government would directly appoint someone to marry her!
Originally, this kind of treatment would only appear on unmarried women, but this time the prefect personally ordered that Qiu Yu would marry even if he didn't want to.
Fortunately, the prefect did not do anything and gave her a deadline so that she could find her husband's house by herself.
It's just that because of this murder, everyone knows that Qiu Yu is a secret prostitute with a curtain, and even if the prefect says that she is not guilty, it is also a fact that she killed someone, so good people don't dare to marry her at all, and those bad people are also angry with her, for fear that she will not go well in the future, and they will find an opportunity to kill the man!
When Sun Zhongming left, Qiu Yu had not yet married, and this matter was still full of turmoil in the city, and everyone was talking about this murder case and the follow-up.
Now Sun Zhongming sent the letter to his family to the home of the catcher, the catcher is a good hand at handling the case, the moment he got the letter, he noticed that something was wrong, and after opening it, he knew that Sun Zhongming must have encountered a disaster!
After all, who would mention a murderer and the deceased's estate in a poem that expresses his longing for his family?
Even if you have to mention it, there's no need to send it to him!
What's more, this heart also said the news that his classmate was seriously ill, as well as his current address, so this matter is even more strange!
This head catcher is also a righteous person, since he knows that Sun Zhongming, a friend, is in trouble, then he can't do nothing.
Therefore, he took the letter to the prefect on the same day, and reported the news that his friend was in trouble and he wanted to see.
For Sun Zhongming, the prefect also has an impression.
Sun Zhongming is a talented person, quick-witted, and very well-organized, he is a very stable and excellent gentleman.
As a candidate for this year's exam, his academic ranking is outstanding, and such a student is very likely to be in high school!
Such a character, if you sell him well now, maybe you can still get a network in the future.
Therefore, the prefect relented quickly, not only let go of the head catcher, but also allocated three other people to him and let them go together.
If Sun Zhongming is really in trouble, then they will help Sun Zhongming.
If it's just a misunderstanding, then it's time to give them a holiday.
In this way, this catcher went to the county seat where Sun Zhongming was located with a few catchers, and when he arrived at the place, he knew what had happened recently after a little inquiry.
After all, it is no secret that Li Xiucai is chasing after the Ma family's concubines, and it is not enough to say that the city is full of storms.
Such a fragrant story has always been talked about by the common people, and among them, Sun Zhongming's figure is also frequently mentioned by these people.
Hearing these news, the head catcher and a few catchers were stunned for a moment, and they didn't know whether the news was true or not.
The head catcher instinctively felt that Sun Zhongming was not that kind of person, but a few catchers were not familiar with Sun Zhongming, and at most they had only met twice when handling the case, so after listening to those rumors, they were a little unhappy.
"Boss, the guy surnamed Sun came to us, it wasn't to rob women."
A catcher couldn't help it, and said this to the catcher.
The catcher hurriedly scolded, and then explained.
"Sun Gongzi is not that kind of person, you don't have to talk nonsense, there must be something strange in this!"
A few catchers were skeptical, and after hearing too many such rumors, this catcher was also a little confused and couldn't make up his mind.
Fortunately, on the third day of their arrival in the county seat, they met Sun Zhongming, who came out to eat tea with Ma Gongzi.
Sun Zhongming looked at the catcher, but looked away as if nothing had happened.
The head catcher was cautious, so he didn't come forward to recognize him directly, so he took the catcher into the teahouse together.
The consumption in the teahouse is quite expensive, and the head catcher can be said to have gritted his teeth and paid.
Fortunately, after a while, Sun Zhongming was led downstairs by Xiao Er and ran to the back.
Generally, if you take a guest to the back of a teahouse restaurant like this, you will go to the thatched house.
Sun Zhongming deliberately gave the catcher a look when he came down, and the catcher understood, and pretended to go to the thatched house and went with him.
There are several thatched houses in a row, Xiao Er led Sun Zhongming to the thatched house and then guarded the outside of the thatched house, catching the head was a step slower, and when he saw Xiao Er standing outside the thatched house, he knew it, and covered his stomach and entered the thatched pit next to Sun Zhongming.
For example, this kind of thatched hut is made of fine wood as a frame, and then woven with bamboo or straw as a partition, and from this pit, through the gap, you can see another pit.
The two of them were in the compartment, and they could see each other through the large gap.
When they met in this environment, the two of them didn't have time to be embarrassed.
Sun Zhongming took out the account books and letters from all over his body, and there were still a lot of things, and the two of them had no way to communicate, so they could only work together to make the gap in the partition bigger, so that they could pass these letters and account books to the past.
Fortunately, it was not a difficult thing to do, and after restoring the partition after it was done, Sun Zhongming lifted his pants and left.
