Chapter 92: Tea Party
"Hugh is rude, when you see the county lord and Lord Thorn, don't kneel!" The headhunter stopped the man who reported the officer.
When this person saw the few people behind the head catcher, he was stunned for a moment, and then knelt down and said, "The grass people have seen the county lord and the thorn master!" ”
"Is it the official you reported?" Yuzhou Thorn Shi met an acquaintance, and his tone was contemptuous.
"It's the grass people." The man replied stiffly.
Qin Huan also remembered this person, it was the young man who was chased and beaten in front of the restaurant last night.
Yesterday, they stopped the group of people who were chasing them, and instead of thanking them, they walked away coldly.
Yuzhou stabbed Shi Yin and Yang weirdly, "When you still arrived at the official mansion, the official still thought that you didn't need the yamen to help you at all?" ”
The young man knelt on the ground, his hair was messy, and his eyes were red, "The grass people have eyes but no beads, the adults want to punish the grass people, and the grass people have nothing to say, I just ask the adults to hand over that Yuda to the grass people to kill!" ”
It was the first time that Yuzhou Assassin Shi encountered this kind of request, and he suddenly felt unreasonable.
"Presumptuous! The prisoner has his own official to play the court to convict, and then ask the autumn queen, which turn will come to you, read that you have contributed to providing clues, and the official will not punish you, let's go. ”
"Your Excellency!" The young man didn't give up, the servants drove people away, Qin Huan's eyes moved, "Slow." ”
She came to the young man and looked at the man with clear eyebrows and beautiful eyes, but his face was like a withered face, "Why did you identify Yu Da as the murderer?" ”
She waved her hand for the servant to let the man go, and the young man sat on his knees, his head raised, his eyes dark, and his voice mournful.
"He has coveted Ying'er for a long time, and he has used the next three indiscriminate methods before, he hates the Cui family, he must have killed Ying'er!"
It was previously found out that Cui Peng was dissatisfied with Cui Ying's love affair with a man and forcibly demolished the mandarin duck, but now it seems that this person is the person who is in love with Cui Ying.
Qin Huan always thought that this case was not so simple, the murderer did so many things, and he used curses to cover it up, not to be arrested the next day.
She said tentatively, "Just this is not enough to prove that he killed people, you have also seen that Cui Ying is self-immolating, maybe she cursed Cui County Order, and she came to lose both." ”
The young man, named Song Ping, stood up emotionally, "Impossible! Ying'er and I have agreed to elope, and she will never set herself on fire! ”
"When did you agree to do so?"
"Tonight."
There was only one day left, and Cui Ying could have left.
But the day before, Cui Ying was burned, and Cui Peng was also brutally killed.
"Bold, the official didn't let you get up, you knelt down for the official." Song Ping stood up half a head taller than Yuzhou Thorn History, and Yuzhou Thorn Shi pointed at him to make a threat.
"No need." Qin Huan raised his hand and pushed Yuzhou Thorn Shi to the back, and continued to ask, "Yesterday, who chased and beat you?" ”
Song Ping clenched his fists, "It's Cui County's order, he's ...... I was not allowed to be with Ying'er, and someone was sent to drive me out of Yangshan County. ”
No wonder he didn't report to the official, the person who chased him was the official.
Qin Huan looked at Song Ping's expression, "You're not a local?" "If he is from Yangshan County, Cui Peng has more other ways to prevent the two from meeting, not just to drive him away.
Song Ping said honestly, "I am from Taoyuan Village, and I met Ying'er at the tea party a year ago. ”
Qin Huan turned around and glanced at Shi Beiyan.
The three words of Taoyuan Village are particularly sensitive to them.
The night before they were going to Taoyuan Village, the county magistrate was killed in a mysterious way, and the file recording the case in Taoyuan Village disappeared, and the person who provided clues to the suspect was also from Taoyuan Village.
Whether these are coincidences or deliberate is not yet known.
Both of them saw their respective inferences in each other's eyes, and Qin Huan turned around, "Forgive me for asking, why didn't Cui County Ling agree to Cui Ying's marriage with you?" ”
Before Song Ping could speak, Yuzhou Thorn Shi's mouth shook, "County Lord, do you still need to ask, look at his poor and sour appearance, how could Cui Peng marry his daughter to him." ”
Song Ping's clothes were ragged, his body smelled, his hair and face were dirty, and his beard was also blue and black, looking like a down-and-out scholar.
Judging from his "appearance", he is indeed not worthy of Miss Cui's family.
But excluding the stains on his face, this man was fair-skinned and wore a jade crown, not like a man who did hard work.
Qin Huan ignored Yuzhou's remarks, "You said, you and Cui Ying met at the tea party, and the tea party that the county commander's daughter can participate in will not be an ordinary tea party, and the person who can participate in this kind of tea party will not be an ordinary person." ”
Tea drinking and having fun is the pleasure of the wealthy, and the poor will not participate in the tea party.
Song Ping is not a shabby person, on the contrary, his family is wealthy, even if he is placed in Yangshan County, he is considered a big family.
Song Ping recalled the past, but the reality made him painful, his heart was like a colic, and even his voice was much heavier.
"This tea party is held by my tea house, I hit it off with Ying'er at first sight, she has a deep insight into tea, we taste tea together, taste tea, as if there are endless words, I love her, she also knows my mind, I came to the door to propose, but Cui County not only disagreed, but also kicked me out of the house!
Although Taoyuan Village was poor in the past, everyone has lived very well over the years, I am confident that I have read poetry and books, and I have a little family background, so I can give Ying'er the best life, but I really don't know, Cui Xianling would rather marry Ying'er to a foreigner who is not as good as me anywhere, and he will not agree to me, if he agrees, Ying'er will not be killed by that bastard of Yu Da! ”
It was rumored that Cui Xianling thought that the poor boy's family was not good, so he blocked his daughter's marriage, but he never thought that there was actually another reason, but even Song Ping himself didn't know about this reason.
Qin Huan will naturally investigate everything Song Ping said again, and now there is a suspect with "conclusive evidence" in the prison.
"You can rest assured, the prison of the imperial court will not spare a criminal, but the execution is carried out by the yamen, and it is impossible for the yamen to agree to what you said about killing Yu Da with your own hands."
"Even if I can't kill him with my own hands, I have to see him die with my own eyes!" Song Ping's eyes were red.
Qin Huan asked him to leave on his own, while she walked in the direction of the prison.
Yuzhou Thorn Shi followed, spitting sour water as he walked, "Just like him, can there be a tea house?" The county lord must not believe this little white-faced big words, maybe Cui Ying was deceived by him. ”
Qin Huan suddenly stopped, "The county lord is a little thirsty, can you find me the West Lake Longjing?" ”
Yuzhou Thorn Shi Zhengchou didn't have a chance to perform, and immediately said, "Of course you can, Xia Guan will buy it!" ”
Qin Huan broke him away, and then whispered to Shi Yi, "Send someone to follow Song Ping and find out his identity." ”
Shi Yi's eyes widened, "The county lord suspects that the murderer is him?" ”
"The murderer may not be, but I always feel that there is something else in him."
She didn't suspect that Song Ping was murderous, but Cui Peng tried his best to prevent Cui Ying's marriage, perhaps, it was related to Song Ping himself.
"My subordinates will do it." Shi Yi walked out.
Shi Beiyan walked behind her with his hands behind his back, although he followed, he looked like he didn't care about himself.
Qin Huan doesn't expect a gentleman to take the initiative, but there is one thing, the effect of a gentleman must be good.
She bent her eyes, "Later, let's sing a double reed." ”
