Chapter 242 Questions
No one noticed where the child in this case went later.
On the day of Liu Quan'er's execution, someone collected his body, and the person who came to collect the body was from the Yizhuang Village.
In a remote alley in Xinjing City, a man knocked on the door of a yard, and the child who responded to the door talked to the man through the crack of the door.
"Buried on the mountain behind the mass grave, between two walnut trees next to it."
"Thank you." The child whispered.
"I will send you out of the city tomorrow morning. Although the family who adopted you are poor, they are well-read in poetry and books. From then on, you will be the child of that family. In the future, you will be the imperial examination and the officialdom."
"Thank you." The child's voice was crying, and he didn't know whether he was happy or sad.
His mother was a woman abducted by her father, and after giving birth to him, she was sold by her father.
My father suffered too many people and was worried about being retaliated against him, so he sent him to Shantang. Until not long ago, my father was wanted by the government and took him back from Shantang and prepared to take him away.
Unfortunately, the city was closed and the city gate was closed, so my father had to take him to hide in Tibet.
Until one day, my father told him that there is a chance now that he can grow up like an ordinary child and be a good child...
"The only thing your father has done in his life with a conscience is to use his own life to exchange for your way out. You must cherish it and never follow the old path of your grandfather and father." The person outside the door said coldly.
The child knelt down silently and kowtowed three times at the person outside the door: "Please thank the benefactor for your kindness. Your benefactor's teachings will be kept in mind for your whole life."
......
Qi Wei has been in the palace or in the yamen these days. It is rare to return to the Duke's Mansion today. He was searching for something in the study. Fusheng came in from outside and knelt down silently.
Qi Wei glanced at him and said nothing.
His study was checked by Feiyuwei. Although he has been cleaned up now, it is different from before. Some small things are gone.
After Qi Fu finally gave up and decided not to look for him anymore. Then he looked at Fusheng again.
"I know you did something wrong?"
Fusheng looks at the nose with his eyes, his nose with his heart, and his knees straight.
"I know I'm wrong, but if I do it again, I'll do it."
Qi Wei made him happy and asked, "All this is your work, no one else's participation?"
Fusheng's lips were pursed into a thread and he shook his head vigorously.
Qi Wei snorted coldly: "You are loyal. Let me ask you, was the mount of Prince Huaian who was stabbed and even frightened? Did you do it yourself?"
Fine sweat beads oozing from Fusheng's forehead, and he gritted his teeth: "I was very angry when I saw Young Master Ying coming out with him, so I pretended to be a passerby and stabbed him immediately."
"The worst thing you have been riding since you were a child. You said you did it. Go and ask, is anyone convinced?" Qi Wei sighed and said, "The people from Wuchengsi who went to the scene that day, the leader's surname was He and was known as Dahe. He was originally in Zhongchengsi and often drank with Hao Chong. I think he is familiar with you. Also, as far as I know, when you were kidnapped, Liu Quaner's father was beaten to death, and Liu Quaner was so scared that he hid. At that time, he didn't dare to come out to commit a crime. Although you made the entire Ouyang family believe that the second elder and Liu Quaner had conspired to abduct you, Liu Quaner was not the kidnapper at all. Since you could find Liu Quaner, you must have known these things for a long time. I'm right."
Fusheng finally raised his head: "Liu Quaner is a kidnapper, and he is very guilty. Besides, he did not admit the kidnapper. I did not have me among the children he confessed. As for how the Ouyang family thinks it is their own guess. I did not do anything wrong with Liu Quaner."
Qi Wei looked at him with deep eyes: "Continue talking."
Fusheng took a deep breath and straightened his body a little further. He continued, "As for the second elder, I used Liu Ji Shou Material Store to test him. He was guilty and was indeed deceived. He actually ran over to see. When Liu Quan'er stopped his mule cart, he just said that he wanted to talk to him about the young master of the Tanhualang family. He was worried that Liu Quan'er would shout out in the downtown area and immediately let them get on the car. If he had no ghost in his heart, would he do this? Duke, I firmly believe that I was abducted back then, which almost caused my family to be destroyed. If I pretended not to know, he would attack me again in order to cover up his past crimes. Duke, I did this, just take action first, just avenge, but... I just let him be tried after death. If I say something wrong, it would cause trouble to Prince Huaian, and instigate Liu Quan'er to give a small part of the fake confession."
Qi Wei sneered: "I asked you to follow your husband to study. Your book is not very good, but your mouth material has improved a lot."
Fusheng sneaked to see it. Although Qi Wei's tone was serious, his eyes were gentle, so he knew that this matter was about to be over.
Sure enough, Qi Wei said, "Hao Chong has returned to the military camp, so I will punish you to patrol the streets and report to the Wucheng Department tomorrow."
"My subordinates receive punishment, and Duke Xie's reward."
Fusheng choked his head solemnly, looked at Qi Wei's face again, and saw that Qi Wei didn't seem to be trying to continue kneeling, so he stood up quietly.
"Did I let you get up?" Qi Wei said.
"The boss's wife is leaving Beijing. I want to go over and see if there is anything I can help." Fu Sheng is honest and well-behaved.
"Leave Beijing? Are they going to leave Beijing?" Qi Wei was stunned, and his voice involuntarily increased.
"Well, the boss lady recognized her sister. My grandmother said that they were going south a while ago. Later, so many things happened, and the itinerary was delayed." Fusheng replied.
Qi Wei frowned: "Her sister? Does she still have a sister?"
He asked someone to investigate that Li Qiniang's adoptive father had long passed away. His brother was in danger when he helped his spirit back home. His life and death were uncertain. It has been many years since he thought he was no longer alive.
Where did Li Qiniang get her sister?
Fusheng nodded quickly: "The boss's wife has a sister, who is her own sister. She was killed in the river and the sisters were separated. It was not until more than a month ago that her relatives reunited. The boss's wife had a shop in the old Beijing, but now the situation in the old Beijing has stabilized. Sooner or later, she will have to go back to the old Beijing. Now it is better to be able to go back with her sister."
"When did you know these things, and why didn't you report them to me?" Qi Wei's voice was majestic, and it was even more severe than when he questioned Liu Quan'er's case just now.
Fusheng subconsciously shrank his neck. What's wrong? He got into trouble again?
No, it’s okay, the second old man can turn things around. Why does the boss’s wife leave Beijing look like a little thing? Judging from the Duke’s attitude, it seems like he has made a big mistake.
