Chapter 429: Bad in Action
Ying Bao suddenly thought of the little fat man Xiao Chengyu and his mother Xiao Wang, and sighed: "It's not Changshou Hou, it should be Changshou Hou's second son Xiao Chengjun."
Changshou Hou has a crooked mouth and slanted eyes, and he can't speak well, he only thinks about saving his life every day, how can he have spare time to hire murderers and hurt people.
Even Xiao Mo is now deaf to what is going on outside the window, and he has been idle for half a day.
Xiao Mansion is also hostile to Xiao Chengjun and Chen Tiantian's mother and daughter, and they are still enemies of life and death.
"Okay." In fact, Wei Zhan and Xiao Chengjun have no blood relationship.
is really his cousin, only Xiao Chengyu.
The next day, Dali Temple sent a lot of catchers, inquired about the situation, and asked people to carry the three corpses away.
Then Yingbao followed the officials of Dali Temple and went to Xiao's house.
went with Wei Zhan and Jiang Wuhuzi.
Called to open the gate of the Hou Mansion, the official showed the sign and rushed directly to the Hou Mansion.
The servants of the Hou Mansion did not dare to stop it, so they could only run to the inner courtyard to tell Xiao Wang.
I didn't know that Xiao Wang's family didn't care at all, and dragged his son to eat in the house.
When the servant saw this, he also avoided it, out of sight and out of mind.
Under the guidance of the servants of the Xiao Mansion, a group of officials went directly to Xiao Chengjun's courtyard.
Xiao Chengjun was neatly dressed and was sitting on the Luohan couch looking at the door.
A bright and beautiful girl walked out of the middle of the servants, dressed in a simple dress, and looked at him coldly: "Xiao Chengjun, what do you want to send a dead man to my Jiang family to commit murder?"
Xiao Chengjun said expressionlessly, "I don't understand what you're saying."
"You don't have to quibble." Jiang Wu pointed at him and said, "There are dead soldiers who have already confessed, and they have kidnapped my sister on your orders."
Xiao Chengjun was surprised in his heart, and at the same time, he said quietly: "I have no official position, I can't afford to support the dead, don't lie to good people."
The official of Dali Temple said, "In this case, you can go with me to Dali Temple. Whether you are guilty or not, go and tell us about it."
Xiao Chengjun stood up: "Okay, the clear person will clear himself, I will go and make it clear."
Ying Bao sneered, "What about Chen Tiantian? Take her with you."
Xiao Chengjun turned his head to look at her: "Jiang Yingbao, do you want to declare a personal vendetta?"
Ying Bao: "The evidence of the crime is conclusive and I have to quibble in front of me, Xiao Chengjun, I just want to ask, what kind of grudge do I have with you, and you don't hesitate to send dead soldiers to kidnap and assassinate me?"
The corners of Xiao Chengjun's mouth moved, and he was speechless for a while.
Those dead soldiers were indeed sent by him, and he wanted to take Jiang Yingbao to a hidden place and ask how she took the life of the people, but those few were so useless.
The dead man who had escaped last night had been put to death by him and thrown into the incinerator of the secret residence, where they could not find it.
As for Tian Tian's mother and daughter, of course they were also there, originally he wanted to see how Tian Tian and Jiang Yingbao exchanged Shou Yuan, but things were messed up by those idiots.
However, he is not in a hurry, Dali Temple will not find evidence to prove that he is the employer of those dead soldiers, because those dead soldiers took poison before going on a mission, and as long as they do not come back on time to take the antidote, they will soon die of poison.
It was dawn, and they should have died.
The corners of Xiao Chengjun's mouth were hooked.
Without witnesses, they can't keep themselves locked up for too long.
His father is still a long-lived marquis, even if he is an emperor, he can't be convicted for no reason.
Wei Zhan and Jiang Wu led people to search around the courtyard, but they didn't find Chen Tiantian's mother and daughter, only Xiaotong and Xiao Chengyu were together.
"It's possible that Xiao Chengjun has hidden it." Jiang Wudao.
There was no figure of her mother and daughter in the entire Xiao Mansion, and she didn't know if she asked the servant, so she must have been sent away by Xiao Chengjun early.
Jiang Wu grabbed a few more old servants and asked if there were any basements and cellars in the house, but they all said no.
That's a bit weird.
Indoors, Sakura Bao looked at Xiao Chengjun, and Xiao Chengjun was also looking at her, both of them seeing contempt in each other's eyes.
"Bring it back to Dali Temple for interrogation."
The official of Dali Temple waved his hand, and the official Xiao Chengjun was framed
Get up and go.
Ying Bao and Wei Zhan walked out with everyone, and met Xiao Mo halfway.
Xiao Mo was sitting on a wooden wheelchair and was quietly looking at her.
Sakurabo's gaze swept over his fox-covered legs and turned his face away.
Unexpectedly, Xiao Mo turned out to be a cripple who was not good at walking.
No wonder Master Zhou Wuchang would rest assured that the Xiao family would be raised in the capital, and his father was named a marquis.
I see.
I said it myself, why did Xiao Mansion let Xiao Chengjun be the master of the house, it turned out that his brother was disabled, and this was the main reason.
......
On the eighteenth day of the first lunar month, Sakura's marriage decree was long overdue.
However, the holy decree only said that marriage would be granted, but it did not say when she would be married.
It's no wonder that the Wei family is not in the capital, and his parents are thousands of miles away, since the only son-in-law is married, he must wait for his parents to come before agreeing on the marriage date.
After receiving the holy decree, Wei Zhan's bride price also arrived.
Because the Wei family also has two or three shops in the capital, he is not short of money to buy a bride price.
Seeing the boxes of silk and satin cloth, gold, silver and jade that were carried into the house, as well as the heads and faces of precious stones, pearls and shoulders, etc., Chun Niang was simply stunned.
Wei Zhan sent all the goods in his shop?
This...... This is too much, even if the family converts all the money into a dowry, I am afraid that it is less than 20% of the bride price.
Ying Bao looked at Wei Zhan, who was smug in the spring breeze, and was speechless.
He's so generous, does his father and mother know?
"I bought these two geese at a high price, one male and one female, you can cut their wings and keep them in the yard, maybe you can have a nest of geese in the future." Wei Zhan hugged the wild goose in front of Yingbao like a treasure.
Sakura touched the frightened geese: "Okay, just go back and tie their legs and feet with a rope, no need to cut their wings."
The geese are going to migrate, and when they lay eggs and hatch their young, he lets them go away.
Next, the emperor's reward also came, a truckload of silk and silk and jewelry, as well as various utensils and objects for weddings.
On top of that, the prefectural lord's mansion is also in good shape and ready to move in.
The county lord's mansion is a three-entry courtyard with dozens of houses, large and small.
There are not only maidservants' houses and servants' houses, but also guards' houses, stables and stove yards.
The courtyard of the stove house was large, with a well and a river connected to the water pavilion, in which the maidservants washed their laundry and vegetables.
There are also two small vegetable plots in the stove yard, as well as a chicken coop and a sheepfold.
It seems that this was once the residence of a large family.
Sakura took her family around and decided to stay.
The Jiang family's house is temporarily reserved for the second cousin and the upcoming grandfather and grandmother to live in.
"Sakurabao, you have to raise the walls of your house."
Since the appearance of the assassin on the night of the Lantern Festival, Wei Zhan was very worried, and he couldn't wait to sleep next to Yingbao for the past two days.
Sakura looked at the wall, "Okay, let's talk about it after the New Year."
She didn't worry much about herself, but the safety of Ah Niang's younger brother couldn't be ignored, although this wall was a little higher than Jiang's house, it was not enough to see.
"Okay, I'll go outside the city to order the bricks and tiles first, and then just start work directly." Wei Zhan secretly thought about whether he would live in the county lord's mansion or his own house after getting married.
Why don't you build a wall around your house?
Jiang Jie said on the side: "Sister, the height of the wall of the mansion is also regulated, I will go to the Ministry of Industry to ask how high it is not against the system. Also, let me tell you the news, Xiao Chengjun has been released."
Sakura turned to look at her brother, "Released?"
"Hmm." Jiang Jie said: "Several people in the court spoke for him, but Dali Temple has not been able to produce evidence, and that kid has a very strict mouth, and he refuses to recruit when he is punished, so he has to be released."
