Chapter 170: Mother Tan is gone
"Could it be that those two people still have no origins?"
Zhu Yan propped his chin and frowned.
If it's just an ordinary street bastard, let alone being punished, the county magistrate can scare them out of the way with a few slaps of shocking trees, and the little thing in their heads will come out bald.
Geng Xingshuang looked at Wu Juan, Wu Juan said: "I checked the two people, Ge Datian has married a wife and had children, and there is Lao Tzu Niang at home, but Wu Hong is alone, I heard that he used to practice martial arts in the martial arts hall, but because of his short temper, he couldn't get along with other people in the martial arts hall, and he also molested the maids around the owner of the martial arts hall, so he was kicked out and worked a few jobs, but it didn't last long, so he kept mixing."
In other words, these two people do not have a main family on the surface, and they have no special background.
"If they don't say anything, it can only show that the people behind them have promised them great benefits."
Geng Xingshuang felt that if he failed to try it out this time, it would be more difficult to get anything out of their mouths in the future, after all, Tao Yuyu and Tao Yunian were still alive, and Tao Yuyu had not yet been insulted, such a crime would be locked up for a while at most in Daning, and it would be released after dozens of boards.
So for the benefit of the people behind it, they are likely to carry it all the time.
As for the two people who Tao Yuyu sued, they were instructed to kill their sister and brother, even if Ningfeng County ordered Lord Chao to be an official and upright, it was impossible for him to continue to consume it because of this kind of complaint with no physical witnesses and evidence.
Jiang Xuefu rolled her eyes, looked at the clear sky outside the window, and said in a low voice: "The reason why those two villains dare not tell the truth all the time is because they know that even if the yamen tortures them, there is a bottom line, and it will neither cripple nor hurt their lives, so it is better to let Miss Tao withdraw the complaint and let them come out."
As soon as Jiang Xuefu's words came out, Zhu Yan stroked her palms and agreed, "That's right, for such a dirty person, the means of righteousness and brightness can't work, so you can only use some shady tricks." ”
"Sister Shuang, what do you think?"
"I still have to ask Xiaoyu about this, but there is one thing, we can't let them lose their lives."
If someone is dead, even if there is no trace left, the government still needs to check it for a while.
"I'll go ...... myself"
"I'll let Zhuqing do ......"
Jiang Xuefu and Zhu Yan spoke almost at the same time.
Geng Xingshuang and Zhu Yan looked at Jiang Xuefu at the same time, her face was eager to try, and the hammer behind her kept poking her shoulders gently, obviously to remind her not to get carried away and not to do anything out of line, but Jiang Xuefu didn't even look back, only shook her shoulders.
"Let's discuss this matter again, and ask her opinion when Xiaoyu comes out."
After coming out of the yamen, Tao Yuyu's face was obviously disappointed, Tao Yunian was indignant, and Tao Rong, who had been watching the interrogation from beginning to end outside the yamen, sighed one after another, he wanted to say something, but looked at his children, opened his mouth, swallowed the words in his heart, and sighed again.
"Xiaoyu, we just discussed a solution, you come and listen, and Ah Nian will listen to it too."
Zhu Yan pulled the Tao family sisters and brothers into the house and left Tao Rong outside.
Suddenly, only Tao Rong and a few maids were left outside the house, this is the small courtyard where the Tao family is placed in the Yuan'an Dart Bureau, speaking of which, it is much better than the broken yard where they live, and they can often hear the sound of humming and practicing martial arts outside, which really makes people feel safe.
But...... But no matter how good this place is, it's not home, it's someone else's place, and it's always not so reassuring to live in.
Hammer stamped her feet in a hurry outside, afraid that her girl had insisted on dealing with the two thugs herself, and how she would explain to her wife when she returned.
"Don't worry, my girl and Miss Zhu won't let Miss Jiang go in person." Jinbao comforted her.
In the house, the Tao family sisters and brothers listened to Zhu Yan's suggestion, Tao Yuyu was still a little hesitant, but Tao Yunian's eyes were very bright, and he said to Tao Yuyu: "Sister, even if we don't agree, it won't be long before those two people will be released."
"Okay, I'll go to the yamen to withdraw the complaint."
Although the complaint was withdrawn, it was not withdrawn immediately, and the trial had just ended today, and everyone discussed how to go back in three days.
Just two days later, Geng Xingshuang was painting in the house when he received the news from Jiang Xuefu that Ge Datian in the Yada Prison in Ningfeng County was dead.
"How did you die?" Geng Xingshuang felt a very bad feeling in his heart, and things seemed to be completely beyond their imagination.
"My eldest brother inquired and found out that he died of illness, the weather suddenly became cold in the past two days, and several prisoners in the county government prison were sick, and Ge Datian was also sick, with a high fever, and the county government also invited a doctor to see those prisoners, but Ge Datian and another prisoner did not survive."
Jiang Xuefu's face was also very bad.
Zhu Yan also received the news, and she took the Tao family sisters and brothers and rushed over together.
"It shouldn't be that simple." Zhu Yan frowned.
Tao Yuyu's eyes showed a look of panic that he had never seen before, "I never thought that I was Miss Bofu or Guogongfu, why can't they let me go!" ”
At this moment, she was a little hysterical.
Geng Xingshuang has also been a little anxious about this matter recently, she looked at Zhu Yan and said with a wry smile: "Originally, I thought that we would find out the truth, and then tell the elders of our two families, and the matter would be solved, but now it seems that I am too confident."
Zhu Yan looked at Geng Xingshuang, the two have been friends for many years, how could she not understand what she meant, and said with a wry smile: "My eldest brother found out that I was always running out during this time, and asked me yesterday if there was something wrong?" I didn't want to tell him yet, but now I have to. ”
The reason why Zhu Yan didn't want to say it was not that she wanted to be reckless, she had to find out by herself, but that her eldest brother was very busy on weekdays and stayed in the palace all the year round, as the emperor's trusted imperial guard, she couldn't be distracted when she was on errands, so she didn't want to bother him with these things.
As for his father, as the north wind began to howl, and when the northern curtain was about to move, her father, as the left attendant of the military department, not only went out early and returned late, but also often stayed at the yamen of the military department at night.
So it's not good for her to tell him about these things that have no evidence for the time being, as for her mother, the relationship with her second aunt has always been bad, and she doesn't want to take care of the affairs of the second room, so she naturally doesn't want to embarrass her mother.
"When my eldest brother comes back from the palace in two days, I'll tell him about it."
As soon as Zhu Yan's words fell, he saw that Tao Yuyu seemed to be even more uneasy.
Geng Xingshuang held Tao Yuyu's hand, "Xiaoyu, what's wrong?" ”
Tao Yuyu shook his head, "No...... Nothing, I just scared the hell out of what had happened during this time. ”
Tao Yunian saw his sister's thoughts.
"Sister, are you worried about the ...... of the eldest prince?"
Tao Yunian was halfway through his words and glanced at Zhu Yan.
Zhu Yan was stunned for a moment, only then did she understand what their sister and brother meant, she was a little angry at first, and then felt that their worries were not unfounded.
She promised: "Xiaoyu, Ah Nian, don't worry, my eldest brother is not the kind of person who ignores the truth for the sake of the so-called face problem, although we have no evidence now, but if my eldest brother intervenes, the situation will be much better than now." When my eldest brother learns about your situation, he will only have the concern of his brother and his sister for you, and the other situations that you are worried about will not happen. ”
Looking at Zhu Yan's determined expression, Tao Yuyu's anxious heart settled down slightly, and nodded slowly, "Sister Yan, I believe you." ”
Ge Datian is dead, but Wu Hong is still in prison, but because Ge Datian died too suddenly, it is not known whether there is a human factor in it, but the previous plan to let Tao Yuyu withdraw the lawsuit is not good to continue.
In the past few days, Geng Xingshuang has been waiting for Zhan Pei to come back.
Finally, on the twelfth day after leaving Ningdu City, Zhan Pei returned.
She brought a not-so-good news, "Mother Tan is gone?" Geng Xingshuang frowned.
"When I arrived at Zhuangzi in Yu County, Tan Feixu had just been buried for three days, and I heard that he died of illness, so I also asked other people in Zhuangzi to inquire, Tan Feixu didn't leave anything before she died, but just asked people to bring the news of her death to the second wife of Bofu, saying that she had served the second wife after all, and now she was leaving. I heard that the letter was not sent through the post station, but she used all the money on her body to ask someone to send it, and according to the time, it should be almost there. ”
The person who delivers the letter is not like Zhanpei, who can not only eat and sleep in the open air, but also be able to work quickly, and it is normal for this time to spend a few more days on the road.
