At this moment, there were sounds of clothes being torn apart from the backyard, as well as the frail woman's exclamations and cries.
Anyone who hears this voice will suspect that some vicious villain is bullying a certain virtuous woman.
Anyone with a little bit of integrity in their heart will not be able to help but rush out to stop such a thing from happening, and will never let the vicious villain succeed.
"Guan Guan, how dare you, a Guan Guan, do this?"
The scholar Sun Yue was furious when he saw this, his eyes widened and his face turned red.
"Shameless people, shameless people. This is the first time in my life that I have seen such vicious officials in the world."
"This matter must be impeached, it must be impeached."
The scholars who came to express their condolences were also trembling with anger. In their eyes, Li Xiuyuan was a dog official who bullied men and women while Fang Sheng's body was still cold. Moreover, no faint official was as outrageous as him, and he actually appointed him.
His subordinates bullied Mr. Fang’s maids during his lifetime, and even stole others’ belongings from them.
clothing.
Even a robber blocking the road would not do such a thing.
Some people claimed that they were scholars and scholars and rushed over to stop them, but they were stopped by Cui Wei with six men.
However, when the two escorts tore off Xi'er's clothes, they suddenly exclaimed: "Oh, what a big bird, this girl is actually a male."
"No, not right, a man?"
"This, this maid is a boy, not a girl. Oh my god, how could this happen?"
For a moment, there were exclamations one after another, and no one could believe the scene in front of them.
She is obviously a woman with her appearance and figure, but why is she taking off her clothes with a handle? And that thing is so different from ordinary people that many men feel ashamed when they see it.
"I suspect that this person is a demon from the Wutong Sect, and he used some heretical technique to turn himself into this, just to take advantage of the opportunity to sell himself to a wealthy family, cause trouble in other people's backyards, seek wealth and kill people, and Fang Yu died of it.
This person's hand." Li Xiuyuan said: "That night when Fang Shengyu was stabbed, this person
He happened to be in the government office and next to Fang Shengyu."
"Everyone, the evidence is conclusive. I wonder if you have anything else to say?"
After speaking, he glanced at the so-called scholars and scholars.
Immediately, these people were like eggplants that had been frosted. They all withered. They showed no signs of speaking out or aggressively. They were all so ashamed that they couldn't help but cover their faces with their sleeves and did not dare to see anyone.
"Why, how could this be like this? How could it be a man? It was clearly a woman just now." The scholar Sun Yue was dumbfounded at this time. He froze in place and muttered to himself, still unable to accept this fact.
But Xi'er**** is a real existence and cannot be faked.
"Have you written a letter of guarantee?" Li Xiuyuan waved the document in his hand and said, "With your brain, you can't take the imperial examination. Go back to farming, or I will arrest you and send you to the Yamen today."
After finishing speaking, he added: "Take this person back and bring him back. The case has been solved."
"Wait, wait, sir, it's true that the villain killed Fang Shengyu, but the villain also had no choice but to do it. The villain and his wife were in the government office that day." The maid named Xi'er shouted in panic.
.
Obviously he was unwilling to be caught and wanted to reveal his personal relationship with Mr. Fang.
If he hadn't been hit by Fang Shengyu, he wouldn't have killed Fang Shengyu in a hurry.
Li Xiuyuan squinted his eyes and said, "You want to say that you and Mrs. Fang have an affair?"
"You, how do you know?" Xi'er was speechless and said in horror.
"Of course I know about this. It's not enough for you to kill a prefect. You also want to slander others and cause other people's families to be destroyed. Why don't you give up? Take this person away and interrogate him. I don't think this person is a first-time offender. I guess he has done it before.
He has also committed a crime, otherwise how could he dare to kill someone?"
"Yes, sir, take this person back to the Yamen." Cui Wei immediately sent someone to escort the person away.
But as the case was solved, the attitudes of others immediately changed drastically. From scolding Li Xiuyuan as a doggy official, they now began to praise Li Xiuyuan for being wise, wise, and a good official with integrity.
"Okay, okay, the master's injustice has finally been put to rest, and the murderer has been caught."
"Master Li, Wan Sheng made a mistake. You shouldn't have scolded me just now. Wan Sheng is so embarrassed right now, please punish me."
"Master Li, he solved the case like a god and found the murderer in one day. It is really a blessing to the people. Master Fang, his colleagues can also smile."
Li Xiuyuan smiled and said nothing, just turned and left.
"I'm sorry for disturbing you today. I've finished my case and the murderer has been arrested, so I'll take my leave first. Please continue to hold Mr. Fang's funeral. I think there won't be anything to disturb Mr. Fang in the future. As for the corpse fraud just now.
This incident is just an accident. Such a thing will never happen again.
It works, you can rest assured."
In the end, his kindness outweighed his reason, and he subconsciously covered up the matter for Mr. Fang.
Li Xiuyuan couldn't do anything that would ruin a family's life.
When he passed by the mourning hall, he still saw Fang Shengyu's two young sons kneeling there crying, and Fang was also kneeling in the mourning hall, wearing mourning clothes, looking at Li Xiuyuan in horror and expectancy.
"Ma'am, please take care of yourself. I can help madam cover up this time because I don't want to see your family ruined. However, the sins committed by Fang Shengyu are still there, and he can't bear them even if he dies. Sooner or later, there will be disasters again.
For the sake of our children and grandchildren, if Madam can change her ways from today on,
If you do good deeds and accumulate virtue, you will still have peace in the future."
"Otherwise, Madam, as well as Fang Shengyu's two children, they will be in trouble sooner or later. This is the evil you have sown before. You should repay it yourself. Madam is a Buddhist and you should understand what I am saying.
What."
Li Xiuyuan walked over and said to Mr. Fang.
"Thank you so much for your great kindness. I will repay your kindness in the next life as an ox and a horse." Mrs. Fang cried and knelt on the ground.
Li Xiuyuan said: "If you sincerely repent, I will give away all the money that Fang Shengyu got from corruption and bribery. Of course, this is my suggestion. Madam does not need to follow it. I will stay soon and take my leave."
By the way, he also pointed out a way for Fang to survive.
It is not easy to escape from sins that bring harm to future generations. It requires great merit.
As for Mrs. Fang's reluctance to part with money, it depends on what she does.
Li Xiuyuan believed that if she was reluctant to part with money, she would receive evil retribution sooner or later, because she was not a good man or woman before, so Li Xiuyuan did not believe that she had not done any evil deeds around Fang Shengyu.
It's just that he has done everything he can. Whether he can save himself depends on himself. He feels that he has been meddling a lot today. If it were another official, he would have been arrested.
