When I returned home full of questions, I bumped into Yan Huaqing and Wei Shuhan chatting in the courtyard.
Thinking of Tang Haoran's death, Hua Rujin immediately gathered her thoughts and asked Cheng Nini to take Hua Youen and Hua Muyang to the study room to study. Then she ordered Yan Huaqing and Wei Shuhan to go to the guest room and pour wine for them.
Have tea and sit down quietly.
Seeing the strange look in their eyes, Hua Rujin's face darkened and she asked directly: "Tell me, Mr. Yan, Mr. Wei, what are you hiding from me?"
Yan Huaqing coughed lightly and deliberately lowered his head to drink tea by himself.
Wei Shuhan also pretended to sip tea as if nothing had happened. Seeing that the girl's phoenix eyes were staring at him, he had to say: "You girl, maybe you heard something outside, why would you ask such a question?"
?”
"I heard from my eldest aunt that my cousin's biological mother Qian is still alive."
Hua Rujin hinted vaguely.
If these two people really knew about the case back then, there would be no need for them to say anything.
Upon hearing the news, Wei Shuhan did not show too much surprise, but continued to drink a few sips of tea with a calm face, and then slowly said: "So what?"
Seeing that the old man behaved like nothing was wrong, Hua Rujin suddenly fell into silence.
Although she guessed that her master might be related to the old case, she didn't know what role this person played in it.
Yan Huaqing had already realized that Hua Rujin had discovered a hidden trick in this case, and said with a sneer:
"I have been traveling for the past few years, and I have heard some old stories about the third master of the Hua family. He is also a man of good character and should not do such unjust things. And I also recognize the husband of the Qian family. He is also with the third master of the Hua family.
We have the friendship of classmates. Back then I sought advice from Hua Xun. This old man from the Hua family was such a fair and selfless person.
Even though he beat him to death, he did not believe that his son would do such a thing, but he could not resist the demands of justice, and finally chose to annihilate his relatives and sent his son to the guillotine. For this, the entire Hua family has been burdened with infamy for many years."
At this point, he raised his eyes and looked at Wei Shuhan meaningfully, and continued: "It was Mr. Wei who was responsible for the review and review of this case. In the end, it was Mr. Wei who personally reported the case to the court for settlement. I am also very curious.
, why did Mr. Wei disappear after this case? I heard that this case originally involved His Royal Highness Prince Yun."
Wei Shuhan squinted his eyes and pondered for a long time, then slowly raised his head and sighed heavily:
"To be honest, I realized that there was something fishy about this case after it was closed. Later, when I reviewed the Jiangling City death row inmates, I found something wrong. Logically speaking, even if the death row inmates died in prison, there should be corpses.
, At first I thought this was a big or small matter, but the brother who was on death row returned home with honors after serving in the military, and wanted to get his body back for burial, but the county couldn't hand over the body, and the matter reached the provincial government.
In order not to bring harm to His Highness Prince Yun, the chief envoy suppressed this matter."
"Then what happened?"
Seeing that he was finally willing to reveal his secret, Hua Rujin took advantage of the situation and asked.
Wei Shuhan couldn't bear to close his eyes: "At that time, I didn't realize that there was anything fishy about Qian's affair with Uncle Ling, and I thought that both the chief envoy and the chief minister were old comrades who fought with the great ancestor to conquer the world, so I could trust it.
As he said, I followed his wishes and settled the case, but after all, human life is at stake, so I didn’t dare to underestimate it, so I secretly investigated the whole story until I saw what you said in the provincial capital.
When I mentioned Qian, I realized that I had indeed been deceived."
"So, Qian went to the provincial capital after being released from prison?"
Hua Rujin suddenly felt extremely angry.
Sure enough, the imperial power is supreme, and the lives of ordinary people are like a piece of grass.
"I just bumped into her by chance, and then there was no news from this person. I have been looking for that woman all these years."
The look in Wei Shuhan's eyes became extremely complicated: "I have now found out the details of your third uncle's case. He did go to Qian's house on the night of the incident, but I heard that he was not familiar with Qian.
It was King Yun and the woman who spread the most rumors in the market, and King Yun's whereabouts also appeared in Jiangling City that night, and the husband of the Qian family died tragically at home the next day."
"It seems that the only way to find out what happened that night is to find Mr. Qian."
After hearing the whole story, Hua Rujin didn't feel that the matter had much to do with Mr. Wei, but he had been brooding over it for so many years, presumably because he was too demanding on himself.
No wonder he always warns himself that whenever he encounters a case, he must focus on evidence rather than words.
Seeing the old man's worried look, Hua Rujin couldn't help but advise: "If what I expected is right, the affair between Prince Yun and the Qian family was discovered by her husband's family, and Prince Yun killed Qian's husband in order to silence him.
It happened that my third uncle happened to be involved in the murder, so he was forced to be the scapegoat. Master is in a high position and it is difficult for him to be considerate of everything, so there is no need to blame himself too much."
"It is an innocent life after all."
At this moment, Wei Shuhan also began to reveal his origins with the ancestors of the Hua family: "Girl, speaking of which, your grandfather and I were close friends back then. I think that when I conquered Jiangling City for my great-grandfather, I was chased all the way, and it was all thanks to you.
Grandfather rescued you, and I have also met your third uncle. He was an honest and upright child, but because of my negligence, his life was wasted in vain, and the entire Hua family suffered unjust injustice."
"I didn't expect that master and my grandfather were old acquaintances."
Hua Rujin recalled it carefully, but there was no such memory in her mind.
In my impression, the grandfather of the original owner was really a low-key old man who dedicated his whole life to the county school. The only thing that was criticized was that he took the wife of Hu Nanxi.
Yan Huaqing silently listened to Wei Shuhan's story and told him all the information he had collected:
"I was still young back then, and the Qian family's husband was a close friend of my father's. He helped my family escape from danger many times, so when he was killed, I felt great anger in my heart, but I still remember Hua San.
When I was arrested, he insisted that he just went to Qian's house to take shelter from the rain and ask for water, and when he entered, the man was already dead in the house, but later during the interrogation, he changed his confession and admitted that he had killed someone."
"Such tricks are not uncommon."
Hua Rujin smiled bitterly and shook her head: "Even ordinary cases can be beaten in that prison, let alone Prince Yun involved."
If the lives of the whole family are threatened, I am afraid that the third uncle of the original owner will have to obey.
Wei Shuhan knew that when this girl mentioned this matter, she would not just ask casually, but she must have some plans, so he quickly asked: "Girl, I heard that the number one scholar has returned to Jiangling City, do you want to join hands with him to investigate thoroughly?"
King Yun?"
"This matter must be investigated thoroughly."
Hua Rujin replied with firm eyes.
The Hua family has been unable to hold their head high because of this matter for so many years, and she must seek justice.
Only in this way can the entire Hua family be proud and proud.
