Mr. Xu San looked at Xu Qinghuan, his eyes getting darker and darker, like an abyss that was about to swallow up everything in front of him: "When I picked up the stone and met Cao at Cao's house, many things happened in between, and I can't explain them all.
It is also reasonable and reasonable. The Xu and Cao families are originally related by marriage. I have been to the Cao family many times, so I can naturally find clues. Even if I lied, can you convict me like this? "
Xu Qinghuan did not answer Master Xu San's question: "With the first mistake, there will be a second mistake."
Everyone looked at Xu Qinghuan.
Xu Qinghuan said: "Shitou has been missing for so long, but why has there been no movement from the woman who lives with Shitou? She has neither tried any means to find Shitou nor sent any news to Zhao Cao.
I previously deduced that it was because she knew that the stone would seek revenge, so even if the stone disappeared, she would not make any noise, but then I found out that I was wrong."
Sun Chong couldn't help but said: "Shitou's mind is also different from ordinary people. People who have been with him day and night will naturally know that Cao Ruwan was not killed by Shitou. The woman will definitely find something strange."
Xu Qinghuan nodded: "If the stone disappears, this woman will panic. How can she stay at home safely and pretend that nothing happened? Someone must have comforted her."
Sun Chong said: "What Miss Xu means is that it is Mr. Xu San who appeases the woman? But why not Mr. Xu Er?"
Xu Qinghuan said: "Master Xu San has been raising the stone for many years. If something happens to the stone, the woman will find ways to tell Master Xu San, and she will naturally listen to Master Xu San's arrangements.
It is very difficult for Mr. Xu Er to do this. Even if Shitou's life is used as a threat, the woman will not just sit there and wait for death. She will definitely have the opportunity to leave some clues.
So Mr. Xu Er wanted to frame all this on Shi Shi. He should have killed the woman after Cao Ruwan died, and would not risk letting her live for a few more days."
Sun Chong frowned: "But that woman did live a few more days, so your inference is unreasonable."
"I was also troubled by this matter, but it was only after I figured it out that I concluded that the real murderer was not Mr. Xu Er," Xu Qinghuan said, "Mr. Xu Er used the grudges between the Zhao Cao family and the Cao family to set up such a big situation.
, there would never be such an omission. After thinking about it, there is only one reason. Mr. Xu Er did not know that Shitou was mentally deficient, so he had no reason to kill the woman.
If Shitou is a normal person with strong strength and tall stature, he would naturally have the ability to kill Cao Ruwan. The grievances between Zhao Cao's mother and son and the Cao family are there, and Shitou happened to be missing at this time, so the woman probably also
She would suspect that everything was caused by the stone, and she would not dare to speak out if she had a hidden ghost in her heart. Even if the yamen came to her door, the woman would probably not be able to say anything detrimental to Mr. Xu Er."
After Xu Qinghuan finished speaking, the Yamen brought Master Xu Er up.
When Xu Qingshu saw his father, he immediately pounced on him: "Since you have found the murderer, why are you still tying up my father? Let my father go quickly."
The county magistrate shouted coldly: "You are also a person with a good reputation, but you don't know the rules of the yamen? I will forgive you for your first offense, otherwise you will be punished for disturbing the court."
The officer raised his killing stick, and Xu Qingshu retreated with a pale face.
Xu Qinghuan walked to Mr. Xu Er: "Although everything was not caused by the second uncle, the second uncle has a few lives on his hands. Does he still want to escape unscathed? It's better to tell the truth as soon as possible."
Mr. Xu Er's expression changed again and again, and he finally made up his mind and looked at Wang Yun: "Your Majesty, I do want the Cao family's money, but I don't want to kill anyone. Originally, I just wanted to kidnap Ruzhen and provoke Zhao.
The grievances between the Cao family and the Cao family, and then looking for opportunities to blackmail the Cao family for the money... I didn't expect... I couldn't control what happened next... Now that I think about it carefully, I was pushed forward step by step...
That’s why we ended up where we are now.”
After saying this, Mr. Xu Er looked at Mr. Xu San fiercely, "I never thought that you were harming me behind my back. I have raised you at home all these years. How can I be sorry for you?"
Master Xu San looked surprised: "Is there anything that Marquis Anyi can't do to my second brother? My second brother is not coveting the title of Marquis Anyi. My second brother has killed people because of his greed, so what does it have to do with me."
Master Xu Er gritted his teeth: "You deliberately let me hear the conversation with Mrs. Zhao Cao and led me to find Mrs. Zhao Cao's son. It was you who arranged everything secretly. If I had known about Mrs. Zhao Cao earlier,
My son is mentally deficient, how could he make such an arrangement... so that he would be caught by the government.
You are plotting everything secretly, just to push me out of the blame. In this way, no one will suspect you, you will quietly swallow the money, and the entire Xu family's second house will also fall into your hands.
"
Mr. Xu San said coldly: "Second brother is worthy of being the head of the clan. He passed the blame on me in just a few words."
"The second uncle is telling the truth. He didn't know that Shitou was mentally deficient, otherwise he wouldn't have been caught so easily by us," Xu Qinghuan said and looked at Mr. Xu San, "You left us a clue here.
Let us track down the second uncle, but we didn't expect that there would be many loopholes because of the second uncle's ignorance.
The fact that the second uncle did not kill the woman is one of them, so you have to make up for it. Before we find the woman, you must kill the woman. There are many ways to force a person to commit suicide. The Zhao Cao family and her son
Life is in your hands. Just a word from you can make that poor man put his neck in the rope. You think everything is done perfectly, but you don't know that it is this perfection that makes me doubt you.
Only someone who understands the whole thing very well can grasp everything so accurately. Whether it is Zhao Cao, Shitou or the dead woman, they are all at their mercy like puppets."
Mr. Xu San had a somewhat sinister look on his face.
"One more thing," Xu Qinghuan continued, "Don't you want to know, Uncle San, why we were able to catch you so smoothly?"
A man walked to the court, lifted up his robe and knelt on the ground. He raised his head after a while and said, "The Cao family is guilty. They killed their savior Zhao Shan more than ten years ago, and more than ten years later, in order to keep this secret, they tried to frame him
Marquis Anyi collaborates with the enemy."
Hearing this, Mrs. Cao's face changed drastically and she looked at the kneeling person in surprise: "Are you...are you crazy?"
Mr. Cao San raised his head: "My son is not crazy. He just doesn't want to make the same mistake again and again." He looked at Xu Qinghuan and said, "Thank you Miss Xu for giving me this opportunity."
On the day when Mr. Wang Yun returned to Cao's house with his second sister, he remembered what happened more than ten years ago and quietly walked out of the house with sadness in his heart.
Unexpectedly, Miss Xu walked up to him.
The girl looked at him with a pair of clear eyes: "Have you ever regretted killing Zhao Shan more than ten years ago? When you wake up from the dream at midnight, do you feel guilty? Maybe this is your last chance. Even if you regret it in the future, you will never be able to take it back.
He never forgot that Zhao Shan was not only his savior, but also his family.
That night, he didn't say a word for his family and allowed him to be tortured to death.
From then on, everything was settled.
"Although the appearance of Zhao Shan back then would make the Cao family suspected of having an affair with the rebels, Mr. Su Huai would try his best to redress your grievances, and Zhao Shan would also explain the matter clearly. It is very likely that the Cao family will be innocent. It is a pity that you killed Zhao
Shan, now in order to cover up this secret, he makes mistakes again and again, and the Cao family will eventually be dragged into the abyss.
Perhaps this is the only way to repay the sins you committed against Zhao Shan.
I know we can't get the money. Mrs. Cao's personality will not leave all this to Mr. Cao. She should put the money in another place without telling Mr. Cao. Mr. Cao is in a panic.
Xin, the only person Mrs. Cao can entrust is the Third Master.
I said this is the last chance, not your chance to save Zhao Shan, but your chance to save yourself."
A determined expression appeared on Mr. Cao San's face: "According to what Miss Xu said, I deliberately went to check whether the tax bank was properly placed. The purpose was to lure the murderer to find the tax bank. So Miss Xu was right. Who appeared there?
Who is the murderer?"
Master Xu San couldn't help but twitch the corners of his mouth, and he just heard Xu Qinghuan sigh.
"You think you are smart, but in fact you are a waste. You have been hiding for so many years and designed such a game, including everyone. Unfortunately, you still failed. Not only that... you are already a discarded chess piece. You are loyal to
People have abandoned you long ago.
You destroyed yourself and the Xu family, but you got nothing.
The only person who cared about you, Zhang, was also killed, you are really... a useless... beast."
Hearing these words, Mr. Xu San suddenly showed a fierce look in his eyes, as if he was suddenly angered.
