Wang Jixun, who was pressed to the ground, shook his fat body, smiled faintly, the laughter became louder and louder, and tears came out, "Kaifeng Mansion, okay, Kaifeng Mansion Yin has always been strict in judging cases, I believe that he will give me justice." ” Liu Xuzhu leaned over to look at him, his eyes clear, "Don't be complacent too early, I have already asked the distant relatives of the Han family to identify the body, if it is really you who did it, you will not be able to escape to the ends of the earth."
After speaking, he stood up and saluted Cheng Mu, "Lord Cheng, people, I'll take it away." ” Cheng Muyou didn't speak, and when he saw Liu Xuzhang's entourage escorting Wang Jixun to the door, he raised his head as if he had come to his senses, "Wang Jixun can't go, at least not now." ” "Brother Cheng, this is the emperor's instructions."
Liu Xujiao turned his head and reminded him softly.
Cheng Muyou strode forward, "I know, but the reason why I want to hand him over to Kaifeng Mansion is because of the Han family's case, but this Wang Jixun has committed other important cases in Xin'an, and he must be found out before he can be taken away." ” Jiang Xixi suddenly realized, and walked a few steps to the front, "He eats people, we have evidence, oh, this is Aunt Hua's record."
As she spoke, she handed the pamphlet to Liu Xujiao.
Liu Xuzhu looked to the side, his face was happy, but then, he frowned again, "In addition to this booklet, can there be other evidence, such as, corpses?"
” "Lord Liu is wise, it is really unreasonable to punish me for my crimes with just one booklet, if this is the case, I will also write a few sentences casually, is it possible to convict anyone according to the head."
Wang Jixun sneered twice and squinted at Cheng Muyou.
"If I find the body, can the case be returned to Xin'an Province?"
Jiang Xixi looked at Liu Xujiao fixedly.
Liu Xuzhu nodded deeply, "If this is the case, Wang Jixun will leave it to you, and I will go back to Bianliang to explain the situation to the Holy Lord." ” "Okay," Jiang Xixi looked back, his eyes glowing with a burning light, "everyone come with me, I know where the body is buried." ” The dilapidated house still stood in place, and the setting sun stained the roof tiles a faint orange, and illuminated the contents clearly.
Shi Jin walked into the house, picked up the bowls and basins on the ground, held them to his nose and sniffed them gently, "Lard?"
My lord, this pot is full of lard. ” Cheng Muyou nodded, and said to Jiang Xixi, "Are you sure this is here?"
” "My lord, Wang Jixun raised those women here, fed them with lard, and then slaughtered them after they were fattened, I think, the corpses must also be buried in this courtyard by him, and ask the adults to dig up the ground to find the corpses."
After finishing speaking, she glanced at Wang Jixun, but her heart followed with a "grunt": No, his expression was relaxed, and there was mockery on his face, could it be that the corpse was not here?
Or are these women also thrown into the river by Wang Jixun like the Han family?
” While they were thinking wildly, the officials had begun to dig into the ground, and the dust was flying, and the whole courtyard was surrounded by dust and sand, and it was hazy and a little like a dream.
Jiang Xixi stood at the gate of the courtyard, the uneasiness in his heart gathered more and more, what must they have missed?
There must be a link of important evidence missing, so I can only spin around the edge and fail to grasp the source.
She looked at Cheng Muyou, although his face was calm, his hands were clenched into fists in the cuffs, yes, he also saw the final result just like himself, that person was about to slip away from their hands again.
"My lord, I didn't find anything."
A servant walked up to Cheng Muyou and used a sharp voice to break their last hope.
Subsequently, Liu Xujiao's disappointment and Wang Jixun's pride, like some kind of illusory and ethereal existence, crossed in front of Jiang Xixi one by one, until she left the palace and rode on the way back to Xin'an Mansion, and she couldn't get out of it.
Cheng Muyou's horse was in front of her, and the "click" of the horse's hooves pulled her back from nothingness, and Jiang Xixi kicked the horse's buttocks and sped a few steps to his side.
He has lost weight, the lines of his face are more three-dimensional, his face is pale, and his eye sockets are blue.
Since deciding to re-investigate the Han Men case, he has hardly slept, and he is still in the study in the middle of the night to check the files and check the network, and no one related to Han Zhiyuan has been missed, but the matter has developed so easily to this point, I thought that the victory was in my hands, but it fell short, and I lost everything.
This taste should not only be frustration, but more helplessness.
Facing a demon, knowing that he has a heavy blood debt, but unable to bring him to justice, for a person like Cheng Muyou, it is the most unbearable.
I wanted to ask him what to do next, but now she couldn't say it, she couldn't bear to put pressure on him anymore, so she could only stay by his side so silently and walk quietly through this difficult road.
Xin'an Mansion was just ahead, and in the night, Xun'er's immature voice floated over, "Daddy, sorry sister, you're back." ” Jiang Xixi jumped off the horse and walked towards him, but suddenly found that there was a person behind him, and after walking two more steps, he saw a face somewhat similar to Cheng Muyou emerging from the darkness.
Jiang Xi was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly bent down and saluted, "Brother." ” "Big brother?
What are you doing here?
Cheng Muyou jumped off the horse and walked towards the man who was following Xun'er.
Cheng Qiuchi smiled faintly at his younger brother, "Father has something for me to bring to you, go in and talk about it." ” The two brothers walked towards the mansion, Jiang Xixi followed behind them, and felt a little more worried in his heart: Cheng Qiuchi came over at this juncture, will it be related to Wang Jixun's case, after all, he and the old man are both officials in the imperial court, and it is impossible not to hear about such a big thing.
Thinking so, she walked to the door of the study with the two of them, who thought that Cheng Qiuchi had just stepped in, so she turned around and closed the door, "It's a pity, Xun'er is also tired, you take him back to the room to sleep."
His voice was irrefutable, and anyone could tell it was an obvious eviction order.
Jiang Xixi had to take Xun'er back to the room, but after he fell asleep, she thought about it and couldn't calm down for a long time.
Finally, she made up her mind, bathed in the moonlight, and walked towards the study.
The candlelight in the room flickered, reflecting two figures, one waving his arms and speaking excitedly.
The other was quiet and peaceful, listening to him silently.
Jiang Xixi walked closer and finally took the conversation between the two into his ears.
"If you continue to investigate, it will not only affect you, but also my father and me, and you may also be affected.
Who is he, the only brother of the queen, are you checking the emperor's relatives, do you know?
” Jiang Xixi was shocked, no wonder Wang Jixun said that the queen had come to his mansion five times, it turned out that they had such a close blood relationship.
Inside the window, Cheng Muyou's body leaned forward, and after a long silence, he finally spoke.
