Chapter 17 The Deceased

"Does the eldest lady think this case is too easy?"

Sun Chong's words seemed to have understood what she was thinking.

Yes, it's too simple.

This case in her previous life almost cost the entire Xu family. She hurriedly returned to Fengxiang halfway, saw the testimonies and exhibits in the yamen, and hired the best lawyer, but she didn't know where to start to clear her brother's grievances.

Only Sun Chong and the prefect believed that there must be an inside story, but their persistence allowed the people to go to the government office for three days and three nights to redress their grievances. The Cao family saved the people of Fengxiang back then, and the people repaid them.

At that time, Mr. Cao washed his hands of all his glory, shuttled through the crowd with a bare face, and finally developed a body of steel and iron, becoming Fengxiang's top figure.

In this life, these people seem to be hiding without showing any signs of it.

The murderer was caught and Tan Da confessed. She had arranged everything carefully, but when the truth came to light, she felt that it was a set-up.

She is also a pawn in the game.

Xu Qinghuan frowned: "Go to the government office."

"Go to the government office."

Another person's voice sounded at the same time.

Xu Qinghuan subconsciously turned his head and looked behind Sun Chong.

Although everything was not so clear in the dark night, she still saw him at first sight, Li Xu.

In her memory, no matter where he was, his presence was always hard to ignore.

Has he already shown his talents since then?

The past that seemed to be remembered clearly in the past is now like the waves sinking to the bottom of the lake, blurred and lost in time.

Those people whom she cherishes in her heart are no longer the best in the world.

I don’t know how many times she had expected and waited for this figure. I don’t know how many times she spread her arms and threw herself into his arms. I don’t know how many times she frowned and planned his future under the light.

It seems that those things that were once long can be cherished for a lifetime, but can be completely forgotten in a short moment.

A person's temperament is slowly formed after years of hard work.

He is not yet the all-powerful and feared King of the North.

The most fortunate thing is that she is still herself, her Xu Qinghuan.

It turns out that the road of life does not depend on how dangerous or muddy it is, but whether it is worth it.

If it's worth it, she won't regret it even if it's a hundred times. If it's not worth it... she will never visit.

In the previous life, she stopped and looked at him carefully. In this life, she quickly retracted her gaze, without stopping, and bent down to get on the carriage.

Xu Qing'an also found Zhou Yue in the crowd. This bastard also said that he and his sister had no holiday. If her sister didn't hate him to the extreme, how could she be like this?

"Let's go," Xu Qing'an ordered the boy to drive the car, and he quickly followed and said bitterly, "Yes, sister, I can't deal with this kind of person. Next time I see him, I will beat him again."

"The prince is talking about the pig's head," Feng Chu slapped her mouth, paused for a moment and then said, "Miss, are we going back to have dinner?"

The Xu family's carriage went farther and farther.

Sun Chong did not dare to delay and immediately led his people to the government office.

Zhou Yue next to Li Xu sneezed: "After all, the female members of the noble family are a little more arrogant, but... Miss Xu... is still virtuous. Don't think too much, this... is Tian Tai

Hey, she didn't see me for a while, otherwise she would always nod to me, it's because we are related. Moreover, when she suddenly heard you say something, she also knew that there was a foreign man around, and it was always inappropriate for a female family member to show up in public.

It was okay, but I was ashamed and shy, so I simply hid in the carriage.

It's just that Xu Qing'an is too annoying and doesn't know how to say a word to me. I won't be able to spare him the next time I meet him."

Li Xu smiled slightly and looked very calm. The breeze blew, and a slightly moist breath came to his face: "Are you talking about the eldest lady of the Anyi Hou Mansion?"

Zhou Yue nodded: "Yes, she is the one I have been telling you about."

Li Xu said: "The Xu family brought more than a dozen people and placed them nearby. It can be seen that Miss Xu concluded that there would be trouble when Tan Da was arrested, but it was so peaceful from beginning to end. Before Sun Chong raised the question, Miss Xu had already thought about it.

Suspicion."

Zhou Yue did not refute: "She is very smart."

"No," Li Xu walked forward tall and straight, "it shows that she is a meticulous person, so she will not fail to see you."

Zhou Yue looked embarrassed.

Li Xu continued: "Now that she has gone straight to the government office, it can be seen that she is decisive in her actions and has a firm mind. Naturally, she will not be bound by etiquette."

Zhou Yue swallowed, feeling as if her lie had been exposed, and her whole body felt like it had been beaten by frost: "Then what does she mean by doing this?"

Li Xu suddenly stopped: "I hate you from the bottom of my heart and don't want to have any interaction with you and me."

Zhou Yue stared blankly at Li Xu's back.

"Either one of us did something to disappoint her, or we have a blood feud with her. Now she is indifferent to it because the time has not come yet. In the future, she will kill her enemy with her own hands."

Zhou Yue felt inexplicably scared. This was simply a disaster from heaven, but he believed in Jiulang because Jiulang never misjudged people: "But it doesn't make sense. I didn't do anything. Could it be because we saved the former prefect Su Huai?"

, you want to avenge Magistrate Su? Magistrate Su is a good person."

"We will stay in Fengxiang next," Li Xu brushed off the dust from his body with his hands, "The inside story of Magistrate Su's injustice case should be in Fengxiang County. We don't have to look around for clues."

Even if Fengxiang is a complete mess, the apparent peace will not last long when meeting a smart person like Miss Xu.

Zhou Yue said: "You mean, we will definitely find evidence to avenge Su Zhifu? But I still don't understand what kind of evidence can convince the court."

Li Xu said: "Prefect Su was wrongfully accused of embezzlement, but the money he embezzled has not yet been found. If we find this money, the case will turn around. Mr. Wang Yun is upright and upright. He will definitely report it to the court for further investigation, and Prefect Su will be saved."

"



Something happened in the government prison.

The murderer who had just been put into prison was tied to the torture rack. His deep eyes were full of ridicule, dried blood was still hanging from the corners of his mouth, and his face still retained a sinister look.

But his chest no longer rose and fell, he would no longer say any words, and he completely turned into a dead corpse.

"Now it seems that the perpetrator had taken poison before he was caught, and it was only now that he had an attack." The county magistrate was bowing down to explain to the people next to him.

The atmosphere in the prison seemed to be more solemn than before.

Xu Qinghuan looked around through Mi Li, and finally his eyes fell on the people around the county magistrate.

This is where the tension comes from.

The new prefect Wang Yun, who was supposed to be greeted by everyone tomorrow, was standing aside and carefully looking at the case in his hand. The county magistrate who came after hearing the news carefully described the case while wiping his sweat.

Wang Yun's voice was majestic: "On the way, I heard that there was a big case in Fengxiang. I just went to the city overnight. Within two days, the case made progress. It seems that you guys are really not slacking off."

As an official, Wang Yun never made friends with powerful people, let alone formed cliques. His outspokenness in the court offended many people. That is to say, he acted openly and aboveboard, and people could not find anything to blame. Otherwise, he would have been poisoned by the traitors. But like this

An upright official did not die well in the end.

Wang Yundao: "Let the autopsy be performed. After the prisoner is put into the prison, all people who may come into contact with the prisoner must be questioned. First, we must rule out that the prisoner was silenced. What appears on the surface may not be the truth."

The county magistrate responded immediately.

Xu Qinghuan and his brother came forward to greet Wang Yun.

Wang Yun nodded, his eyes lingering on Xu Qinghuan for a moment, but he did not question that the female family members should not appear here. He just ordered: "The Yamen is handling the case. You guys should go aside and listen to the news first."

After Wang Yun finished speaking, the jailer helped someone up on the chair.

The man's face was covered in blood, and the deep hatred and unwillingness between his brows and eyes had not dissipated.

It turned out to be Mr. Cao.

Xu Qinghuan's eyes flashed slightly, why was Mr. Cao here? What happened in the prison just now.
