Under the moonlight, the situation in the house was particularly alarming.
Tan Guangyao stood up excitedly to pull the dagger from the man's hand: "If you don't believe it... just do it..."
"Don't," Mrs. Tan shouted, "Don't..." At this point, she raised her head and her voice stopped suddenly.
Tan Guangyao on the bed was still talking: "You don't even know her identity... She said that the whole family was harmed by the Sun family and the Yan family, so you believe it, why are you so stupid... She is clearly using you...
…”
"Brother Yao," Mrs. Tan suddenly interrupted Tan Guangyao, "stop talking... he's not... he's not... look at him."
Tan Guangyao was startled by the shout. He raised his head and looked over. He saw that the man's eyebrows under the moonlight looked very strange.
Finally a lamp was lit.
Mrs. Tan turned around and looked over, only to see Xu Qinghuan standing at the door.
"Miss."
The person being held by Mrs. Tan put away the dagger in his hand, bowed his head and saluted Xu Qinghuan.
Mrs. Tan was still stunned, and the steward’s mother stepped forward to help Mrs. Tan up: “Madam, this servant was sleeping outside, and someone suddenly covered her mouth and took her out of the house. I thought...it was...
I didn’t expect that he was from the Hou Mansion.”
Mrs. Tan understood and pointed at Xu Qinghuan: "You arranged it like this on purpose."
The servant brought two more lamps and placed them on the table. Xu Qinghuan walked up to Mrs. Tan and said, "If Mrs. Tan is willing to tell the truth, I won't go to such trouble."
Mrs. Tan looked ugly and immediately looked at Tan Guangyao on the bed.
"The uncle's wound is open." The steward's mother exclaimed.
Everyone saw that the cloth wrapped around Tan Guangyao's body was soaked in blood.
"Guangyao." Mrs. Tan walked over quickly.
Tan Guangyao opened his eyes with an apology on his face: "Mother...it's all my fault...I...didn't see clearly...I thought..."
"No, it's not your fault," Mrs. Tan seemed to have made up her mind. "It's your second brother's fault. We can't cover it up for him anymore. This is all his fault. I will make it clear to the Yamen and let the Yamen catch him."
He was brought to justice."
After Mrs. Tan said this, footsteps came from the door again.
Xu Qingan led Huang Qinghe through the door.
"This is Mr. Huang, the general judge of Shuntian Prefecture," Xu Qing'an said, "If you have any inside information, tell Mr. Huang."
Tan Guangyao struggled to get up on the bed, but Mrs. Tan held her hand down. Mrs. Tan pursed her lips: "You have a good rest, I will report those things to Mr. Huang. It was all my mother's fault in the past, and it will be my mother's fault in the future."
I will never be confused again.”
There were tears in Tan Guangyao's eyes, and Mrs. Tan couldn't help but feel confused. It turned out what kind of person Guangyao was. He never showed weakness in front of others. There was a lot of quarrel between mother and son because of this. She even suspected that Guangyao had falsified accounts and was secretly cheating.
Hide the money and slowly eat up the public. When the family is divided in the future, the second child will get nothing.
Now it seems that she has completely misunderstood the wrong person, and it is the second child who is really cruel.
Mrs. Tan wiped her eyes and turned to look at Huang Qinghe: "I came to Beijing this time because... I... I suspected that the person who killed Mr. Fang and Mr. Yan, the Sun family, was my son Tan Guangwen.
"
Huang Qinghe's face darkened: "Why are you so suspicious? What grudges does your son have between the Sun family and the Yan family?"
Mrs. Tan showed a look of resentment on her face: "It's because of that Taoist nun named Jiang Zhiyi, no...she is not a Taoist nun, she is just a despicable woman who seduces men. She failed to seduce Guangyao and went to Guangwen. Guangwen
Before he even got married, he couldn't resist the woman's charming ways, so he was... fascinated by her.
If I had known this, I should have died together with her. Even if I died, the two brothers would still be fine, and the Tan family would still be there. How could they have fallen to this day? Yes... that's her... that's Jiang Zhiyi
The person who instigated my son to kill people and has enmity with the Sun family and the Yan family is Jiang Zhiyi."
Huang Qinghe said: "Then do you know the hatred between them?"
"I know," Mrs. Tan said, "I know that Jiang Zhiyi's father is a rebel, and not only that, her mother was also captured by Japanese pirates..."
At this point, Mrs. Tan wanted to spit out: "In short, there is no good person in this family."
Huang Qinghe frowned: "Can you say it more clearly?"
Mrs. Tan said: "Jiang Zhiyi is her fake name. She said her father was Nie Rong, who helped the rebel King Wei transport armor. Mr. Sun Er and Mr. Yan found a merchant ship when they went out to do business.
He was carrying the armor. Mr. Sun secretly checked and found that the person who came to pick up the armor was Nie Rong, so he reported the matter to the court. The court was about to arrest Nie Rong for interrogation, but found that Nie Rong had already brought the stolen tiger talisman.
I went to mobilize troops. Fortunately, I was discovered by the uncle in advance. Otherwise, once the troops came out, the capital would have become the king of Wei. Your Excellency should know these things better than I do. When I mentioned it, I just wanted to say Qing Jiang Zhiyi
The grievances with the Sun family and the Yan family."
Even Huang Qinghe couldn't help but look surprised when he heard the name: "You said Jiang Zhiyi is Nie Rong's daughter, but is that true?"
Mrs. Tan turned to look at Tan Guangyao: "My eldest son has become like this, my second son has killed so many people, and now I have nothing to hide. Jiang Zhiyi is in prison.
Your Majesty took me to see her, and I naturally confronted her. Now that I am telling the truth, it is just to help the court catch the traitor, which can be regarded as meritorious service."
Huang Qinghe had already expected that this case was related to the rebellion of King Wei back then, but after knowing the inside story, he still couldn't believe that the Taoist nun was actually a descendant of the rebel Nie Rong.
"Nie Rong participated in the rebellion. He and his family should have been arrested by the court. Guess why Jiang Zhiyi survived."
Huang Qinghe seemed to be reminded: "After the incident was exposed, the court went everywhere to arrest Nie Rong. Nie Rong was shot and killed because of his resistance. As for his family, they should also be held accountable."
He would have to go back and check the documents to know these details.
Mrs. Tan ridiculed: "Nie Rong's wife was captured by Japanese pirates, so maybe Jiang Zhiyi was born between Nie and Japanese pirates..."
As soon as she said this, she felt that the atmosphere in the room had turned cold. She turned around and found Miss Xu looking at her with clear eyes: "Does Mrs. Tan have any solid evidence for what she said?"
"That's not true." Mrs. Tan swallowed, feeling that she had made a mistake and should not have followed her own whims.
Huang Qinghe thought about it, and after Mrs. Tan said this, the case seemed to be clear.
Jiang Zhiyi wanted revenge, but she couldn't achieve it with her own strength, so she asked Master Tan for help and killed people from the Sun family and the Yan family.
This matter seemed reasonable and reasonable, and it seemed that the case would be settled as long as Tan Er was caught, but why did he still feel that there was something else going on?
"What Mrs. Tan just said may not be entirely true, right?"
