King An was startled, then quickly laughed, and teased: "It seems that this little girl like you is very protective of you."
Fu Heng said to Jiang Wu, "Just go back first."
Jiang Wu also knew that what she just said was a bit hot-headed, and she didn't consider the consequences when she said it. Now that she calmed down, she realized how much ambiguity this sentence would cause. Since Fu Heng asked her to leave, she left immediately.
King An had an excellent reputation in the capital. Jiang Wu had heard of him before, so Jiang Wu had some impressions of him. It was said that this man was good at charity, handsome in appearance, and very polite. In his early years, he had a period
Good story.
It is said that one year, during a banquet held by princes and nobles, a young lady from an aristocratic family accidentally fell into the water. Although there was no danger, it was extremely rude for a girl from such a family to get her clothes wet in public.
, and just when the wealthy lady was in every possible embarrassment, King An appeared in time, rescued the girl from the water, took off his cloak and put it on the girl's. After resolving the dilemma, he even
I personally sent a car to take the girl back home.
Almost everyone believed that he came to save people just because the girl's father was a high-ranking official in the court, and he was a prince. If he could really marry the girl, it would be a big help in the future battle for the right to inherit the throne.
But he didn't. Even when the girl sent a servant to come to the door, he avoided seeing her. He only said that it was the right thing to save the person in the first place and that he had no other intentions. He also asked the girl not to take it to heart.
At this point, the common people gradually came to know the name of this idle prince, and most of their impressions of him were that he was gentle, generous and a good person.
Jiang Wu walked to the backyard, and unexpectedly met Zhu Weixi on the way. He looked dusty and had to go somewhere. Jiang Wu thought that he was also involved in Chen Qi's case, so he stopped him.
Zhu Weixi smiled and said, "Miss Jiang came back just now?"
Jiang Wu nodded. Seeing that there was some dust on his clothes and cheeks, he asked, "You just came back? Have you been in Linxian just now?"
Zhu Weixi nodded: "It was a little late before. We brothers had a meal in Linxian County. I originally planned to make do with one night in the backyard tonight. Going home so late will also disturb my parents."
Jiang Wu rolled his eyes and quickly grasped the key point, "Did you eat in Lin County?"
Zhu Weixi didn't know why and said: "Yes, although Linxian is a small place, there are quite a few small restaurants. We will come back after eating."
Jiang Wu thought of another thing. Linxian is a small county with a small area, so the death of a person must be a big deal to them. This is enough to talk about after dinner, so she asked: "How to eat it?
Did you hear people at other tables discussing Chen Qi?"
Zhu Weixi understood, he frowned and thought for a while, and said: "My subordinates also wanted to get some information while eating, but they didn't seem to care about Chen Qi. On the contrary, everyone felt very sorry for Mrs. Liu, and some people said that Chen Qi
It's a good thing that Qi is dead. The Liu family no longer has to be bullied by him. Speaking of which, my subordinates feel that the Liu family has a very good reputation in Linxian County. Everyone is very happy that Chen Qi is dead."
This is actually a bit strange. No matter how bad Chen Qi is, in the final analysis, the interests of the neighbors are not involved. It is true that he has a habit of beating Mrs. Liu, but in the end, it has nothing to do with the neighbors. At most, the neighbors just think that Mrs. Liu is pitiful. How could this happen?
Such a satisfying feeling? Could it be that Chen Qi did something heinous?
Jiang Wu said: "According to their description, Chen Qi should be a heinous person. He often domestically abused Mrs. Liu. Mrs. Liu was very pitiful, so the neighbors were filled with indignation and hated Chen Qi. Is this the logic?"
Zhu Weixi nodded.
"But it's wrong...Chen Qi has a heart disease..." Jiang Wu murmured. She suddenly realized that she seemed to have grasped a certain point in the case, but when she turned her head, she disappeared again.
While the two were standing in the backyard discussing, Fu Heng came over again, and Zhu Weixi quickly greeted him: "My lord."
Fu Heng looked calm and did not look at Zhu Weixi, but at Jiang Wu: "What did you find?"
Jiang Wu said: "I tend to think that the neighbors are unlikely to work together to deceive people. The strange thing about this matter can only be attributed to Liu. She deceived the neighbors and made them mistakenly think that Chen Qi often beat her.
Have a miserable life."
Fu Heng said nothing, raised his eyebrows and said, "Because of the dead chickens and ducks in the yard? And that painting."
Jiang Wu's eyes lit up, "That painting actually gave us a preconceived impression. Because the brushwork was immature, we thought it was painted by the Liu family's children. It also proved that Chen Qi beat the Liu family, so we thought it was painted by the children of the Liu family.
Believe it or not."
Now that one loophole in the testimony has been discovered, the other loopholes can also be matched one by one. During Jiang Wu's first autopsy, because there was no autopsy, he did not know about Chen Qi's heart disease, so he naturally believed it.
Mrs. Liu and her neighbors regarded Mrs. Liu as a poor sufferer.
At this time, Ms. Liu committed suicide again, and no one would doubt her. They just regarded her as a pitiful and ignorant woman. But she didn't know that the widow of Beizhen Fusi could actually dissect and could see the corpse.
It turns out that Chen Qi is ill.
Chen Qi suffers from heart disease. It is well known that patients with heart disease need to control their emotions and their physical functions are much worse than ordinary people. Therefore, the fact that he often beats Mr. Liu deserves to be questioned. What the neighbors say is that Chen Qisan
Mr. Liu will be violently abused in the first two days, but for a heart patient, at least judging from the frequency, he can't do it.
At the same time, inside the hospital.
Ms. Liu touched the injury on her forehead and slowly sat up. The injury looked serious, but in fact it was not life-threatening. At most, it made her feel dizzy and vomiting.
The little girl in the hospital saw that she was awake and quickly brought her tea and water, "Madam, are you still dizzy now?"
Mrs. Liu looked at the little girl in bewilderment, thinking that if my Ying'er grew up, she would be as cute as her. She unconsciously softened her tone and said, "I'm not dizzy anymore."
The little girl had a lively temperament and started to scold with concern: "Madam, why can't you think so well? I have also heard about your husband. Although I am not married, I also know that the husband and wife support each other.
, you still have two children waiting for you to take care of."
Mrs. Liu listened with a smile, touched the top of the little girl's hair, and said sincerely: "But little girl... not everything in this world can go as expected, and husband and wife do not support each other.
.”
The little girl was ignorant and asked blankly: "What is that like?"
Although Ms. Liu was still smiling, the words coming out of her mouth were a bit vicious, "The so-called husband and wife are two strangers who gradually turn into enemies."
