"Madam, I know, I'll tell Lord Xiao about this early tomorrow morning." Xiao Wu put down the dishes and chopsticks, with seriousness in his eyes, "If I guess correctly, my lord has already received the first letter sent to me at this moment, and I should know that we have not returned to the capital." ”

"Okay."

Su Liuye nodded, took a piece of cooked food and put it in his mouth.

Thinking that the information compiled by Mr. Storyteller also had the names of the five princesses on it, her eyes narrowed slightly, and she didn't know what role the five princesses played in this matter, why he was even here?

Wei Zhong was indeed a well-known official of the imperial court in the past, and he also helped the imperial court solve the affairs of the mines, if he kept to himself, maybe he would gain more trust from the first emperor, but Wei Zhong obviously didn't care about these things at all. For him, the praise of the first emperor is just a kind of capital, a capital that can make her run rampant in Pingyang Town.

When the imperial court knew that he had poisoned his wife and mutilated the people's daughters, they directly sent the guards of Dali Temple to escort him to the capital for interrogation.

According to the description in Mr. Storyteller's book, after Wei Zhong was poisoned, Wei Yang vomited blood, and he didn't know what he said to stimulate Wei Zhong, he actually strangled Wei Yang's neck and strangled him to death. At that time, Wei Yang's family wanted to spit out the poisonous blood, but when Wei Zhong made it like this, all the poisonous blood choked, and the death was extremely terrifying.

Wei Zhong still wanted to burn the corpse at that time, but because there were other people in the yamen at that time, he didn't dare to deal with it blatantly, so he could only hide the corpse. It was winter, and by the time someone sent by the imperial court found Wei Yang, her body was hidden in a vat in the backyard.

According to what is written in the book, Wei Zhong finally died of suicide, and even the first emperor did not see him, which greatly exempted him from the criminal law he was about to suffer.

This matter is reasonable with unreasonableness.

Su Liuye squinted, since the people from Dali Temple had come over, how did Wei Zhong commit suicide under their surveillance?

These things were not recorded in Mr. Storyteller's book, and Su Liuye also found more evidence, so she could only go to rest after the night.

The next day, Xiao Wu still changed into men's clothes to help her deliver the letter, and then went to the yamen again, wanting to find out if there was more evidence, but Su Liuye felt that it was unlikely.

What Wei Zhong did at the beginning was to slap the first emperor in the face. The courtiers who were greatly appreciated by the first emperor actually used his name to oppress the people in the town, robbed the people's daughters, and killed many people in order to prevent the people from going to the capital to complain. What's more, Wei Zhong had committed suicide before he was escorted back to the capital, and the first emperor didn't even have a chance to interrogate him, and there was nowhere to vent his anger.

After learning of Wei Zhong's death, the first emperor directly cleaned up the yamen in Pingyang Town, personally executed several villains who were fighting with people, and left the yamen in Pingyang Town empty for more than half a year, and he personally handled the matter. Every day, a fast horse will send the situation of Pingyang Town to the palace and hand it over to him directly.

After dealing with it like this for more than half a year, the first emperor really couldn't spare time to manage the town again, so he personally found someone to take over the town, and the first one to take over at that time was the fifth prince.

The fifth prince and the first emperor are brothers born from the same mother, and they are also one of the most trusted people in the imperial court.

After the fifth prince took over, he cleaned up Pingyang Town inside and out, but unfortunately the Huang and Zhao families at that time were in the grief of losing their loved ones, and they couldn't afford to go to the fifth prince to complain, plus Wei Zhong was dead, so there was no point in their complaint.

After the five princes, the courtiers of the first emperor personally ordered the emperor, and after several twists and turns, the affairs of Pingyang Town were completely settled, and now the Yamen Lord is also directly appointed from the imperial court, and he is a trustworthy person of the emperor.

Wei Zhong's existence made the first emperor angry, and naturally there was not much about Wei Zhong's past in the yamen.

Thinking of this, Su Liuye had a headache.

She originally wanted to find out what happened back then and give justice to the Huang and Zhao families, but she didn't expect that the murderer had already passed away, and the blood feud between the Huang and Zhao families had not been dealt with.

In this way, it is really not so easy to solve this matter.

She rubbed her temples and drank down the sweet soup she had placed in front of her.

This is the sweet soup she got up to cook this morning, using taro and self-developed balls, and it was very satisfying to drink it hot.

When Xiao Wu came back from the yamen, Su Liuye also served her a bowl.

"Madam, there are no other clues in the yamen."

Xiao Wu took a sip of sugar water and said, "I have already searched up and down the study, and I haven't found any new information, and Master Wu in the yamen also said that he doesn't know anything about Wei Zhong, but I think they have something to hide." ”

"Naturally, this incident alarmed the first emperor, who still has the courage to talk about it?" Su Liuye said, "Xiao Wu, you can go and have a look in the afternoon, if you really can't find new evidence, let's go back to the capital, it's not a way to stay here all the time." ”

"Yes, ma'am." Xiao Wu nodded.

They had found someone from the caravan to pretend to be them, maybe they had successfully concealed the secret guards sent by the fifth princess, and no one had come to harass him or her in the past few days, but this was not a way at all, and sooner or later she would be discovered, and in the end she still had to go back.

Xiao Wu searched in the yamen for another day, and after making sure that they could not find any new clues, the two called a carriage to return to Beijing.

It was Chinese New Year's Eve when I returned to the capital, and the smell of the New Year on the street was stronger than usual, and there were lights everywhere. Su Liuye and the two didn't dare to swagger on the street, so they returned to the house directly, and just after resting for a while, Zhou Bo came over to inform her that Xiao Yun was over.

Su Liuye was a little surprised, and after changing her clothes, she went outside to see that Xiao Yun was already waiting in the hall.

"Mrs. Chu, you're here."

Zhou Bogang served Xiao Yun hot tea, and when he saw her coming, he immediately greeted her with a smile, and went to the kitchen to get some pastries.

"Shopkeeper Su, you're here."

After Uncle Zhou left, Xiao Yun got up to say hello, but his face was gloomy, and he didn't look like he had come to visit her.

Su Liuye said, "Lord Xiao, what are you looking for me?" ”

Hearing this, Xiao Yun was almost angry, and there was anger in his eyes, "Shopkeeper Su, I came here to tell you that if you have any dangerous thoughts next time, please inform me in advance, instead of waiting until I return to the capital, you will send someone to deliver the letter!" If something happens to you, how can I explain to Chu Yan?! ”

He was really convinced! As soon as he returned to the capital and had not yet dealt with the matter at hand, a letter came from Xiao Wu's side, saying that Su Liuye wanted to stay in Pingyang Town.

There are still people in the town who want to attack her, and doing so is undoubtedly looking for death!
