Chapter 351 Who is the murderer (two chapters in one)
Master Hua was stunned. He didn't expect that Prefect Li would come too.
There is also Luo Zizhu.
When he saw Prefect Li, Master Hua remembered the ancient book and felt a pain.
The book was bought but it was not delivered to the Duke Li, and he and his trusted aide disappeared. This ungrateful wolf, Master Hua, had the intention to silence the aide.
However, now Master Hua doesn't care about those things anymore, and the purpose of Prefect Li's visit is no longer the matter of Master Hua Si.
Mr. Hua Si is just a concubine's son. At worst, he can draw his name from the genealogy, but Mrs. Cai is his biological mother and Mrs. Lu is his first wife. These two people cannot draw a clear line no matter what.
Master Hua felt dizzy, but he couldn't faint in public like a woman. He could only barely express his grief and make himself look like a motherless child.
"Master Li, Corsair Luo..." Master Hua's voice was even more swallowed, his eyes were filled with sadness, but unfortunately there were no tears.
It doesn’t matter whether there are tears or not. Men don’t cry easily. Everyone is a scholar and understands it.
Hua Jingyao didn't expect that Prefect Li would come so quickly. When she entered the mansion, she happened to meet the arrester sent by Captain Yin to call people. She guessed that the arrester should be still on the way at this moment.
Are the predecessors of the prefect Li and Luo Zhuo?
However, Hua Jingyao quickly understood what was going on.
She saw Shen Xiao.
Mr. Shen followed the emperor Li and Luo Luxue, with a weak expression, but his eyes looked at Hua Jingyao's feet.
Her feet shouldn't be so slick yet, doesn't she hurt?
When Shen Xiao learned that the carriage of the eldest princess's mansion was following the Feiyuguwei, he guessed that Hua Jingyao must have wanted to take this opportunity to get Hua Da girl Hua Jingwen together. He ordered the guards of the Duke's mansion to pay attention quietly. When he saw that the people from the Princess' mansion entered the Qingyuan Bo Mansion, he went to inform the Prefect Li to come over.
Hua Jingwen is different from Master Hua Si. Qingyuan's mansion will not let her take her away easily. Shen Xiao was worried that once the two sides started to make trouble, the matter would not end easily. Prefect Li could not always let him and Hua Jingyao take the blame. Everyone is a grasshopper on the same rope. Why?
But Shen Xiao didn't expect that there would be no trouble in arresting Hua Jingwen, but the Qingyuan Bo Mansion was killed.
It was also a coincidence. When the prefect Li Prefecture and Luo Luzhu arrived, Hua Jingwen had been sent to Shuntian Prefecture. Hua Jingyao and Captain Yin's questions and answers were heard outside the door.
Xiao Ai has been following Hua Jingyao as a crutch. The little maid is timid and dare not go to see Mrs. Cai on the kang. Looking around the room, except for her own girl and her, there is only Mr. Shen Si, who is good-looking.
But where did Mr. Shen look at his eyes? What should he look at his girl's feet?
If it were someone else, Xiao Ai would have thrown a series of eyebrows, but when facing Mr. Shen Si, the little maid dared not.
It doesn't matter if she doesn't dare. When she goes back later, she will complain to the girl.
As for what Gong Gong Li and Master Hua said, the little maid didn't hear it.
The Prime Minister Li said, "Boye Hua asked for a mourning ceremony. The deceased in this case is a family member of the great and serious. The case is serious. Our government will handle it impartially and live up to Your Majesty's instructions. It is worthy of the people's entrusted. It will find out the real murderer as soon as possible, so as to clear the grievances of the government and ensure the peace of the people."
Master Hua wanted to bite people, but he didn't even dare to show his teeth, so he had to bite the bullet and say, "I'm here to thank Lord Li and Corsell Luo."
It was not until this time that Master Hua saw Mr. Chen standing at the door. After Mr. Chen came in, he did not walk inside, and stood far away like a door god.
Why did this disaster come?
Didn’t he go to the Longan Palace with Feiyuwei?
Does he have a grudge against Qingyuan Bo Mansion?
He was the last time he caught the fourth brother, but now he is uninvited?
The emperor Li and the coroner Luo were the most trusted by the emperor, and he could not afford to offend him. Although Hua Jingyao was his niece, he could not afford to offend him even if he had a bull-like Shi Ding. Look, only Mr. Chen had no official position and no position, and had no father and brother to support him at home. He was a little furry child. Moreover, this little furry child was too hated.
Master Hua turned his anger to Master Chen Si.
"Is Mr. Chen the Fourth Master who came to the place where our Qingyuan Mansion wanted to come? Could it be that Mr. Chen was like the ignorant people outside, who were watching the fun? Then Mr. Chen came to the wrong place and was so easy to leave but not to see him off!"
The Prefect Li and the Corsel Luo looked at each other. Is Master Hua stupid? He thought that the Fourth Master Chen was here to play?
Hua Jingyao was also stunned. Master Hua, shouldn’t you show twelve points of sincerity to cooperate with Shuntian Mansion to handle the case? You opened fire at Chen Xiao, do you think you didn’t die fast enough?
Chen Xiao didn't even look at Master Hua. His eyes finally moved away from Hua Jingyao's feet. He seemed careless and said to Captain Yin: "Let's go and bring the murderer here."
Captain Yin was stunned at first, but soon realized that it was great that Mr. Chen, the Fourth Master, went with him to arrest people.
If he had arrested Hua Jingwen before, he was still a little scared. Now he wanted to arrest Mrs. Lu, and with Mr. Chen, he would not be afraid anymore.
Master Hua was stunned for a moment, what does it mean? Is this Chen Xiao's contempt for him? No, he said he would catch the murderer, who was the murderer? Lu? That's not possible. Even if Lu really killed Mrs. Cai, he could not hand over the Lü family to Shuntian Mansion, then he would lose all his face. The daughter-in-law's killing mother-in-law is the only one in the circle of Zhou's nobles. At that time, the censors would not be involved in his family management. I don't know if his title can be preserved.
"No, this is the back house, you can't go in a mess!"
Chen Xiao and Captain Yin have already gone out. Master Hua lifted his robe and chased him out. However, as soon as he chased him to the door, he was stopped by the yamen runners brought by Prefect Li.
Luo Junzhu had already begun to check the body. Prefect Li walked behind Master Hua and said kindly: "Master Hua, don't worry, just leave this case to our Shuntian Mansion."
"But what happened to Chen Xiao? He is neither from Shuntian Mansion nor has any official position. He is just a playboy. He asked him to walk around the back house and run into the female family in the mansion. What should he do if he asks Lord Li?" Master Hua asked.
The Prefect Li smiled peacefully: "Who said that Mr. Chen has no official position or position? Mr. Hua is afraid that Mr. Chen doesn't know that Mr. Chen is the one who came to assist our mansion in investigating the case. Besides, Miss Hua is here at this time, and there are no other female relatives in the house behind the mansion. If he bumps into those maids and mothers, Mr. Hua just pays a price and asks Mr. Chen to buy it. If he refuses to buy it, then I will buy it."
Yes, Prefect Li already knew that the grand girl Hua Jingwen was taken to Shuntian Mansion. Prefect Li originally thought that this was very difficult, but just at the gate, he heard the onlookers saying that Mrs. Lu was the murderer who killed Mrs. Cai, Prefect Li let go of his heart.
Mrs. Qingyuan Bo killed Qingyuan Bo's biological mother. Qingyuan Bo was annoyed. If he still had the intention to investigate and arrest his daughter, then he would have something wrong.
Therefore, Prefect Li was sure that except for Mrs. Lu who was immediately arrested, there was only Miss Hua Hua Jingyao, the most noble family member in the Qingyuan Mansion. The others were just maids and mothers. At most, there were a few concubines who had sex with each other, which was not counted.
Master Hua didn't know about Hua Jingwen being arrested, but when he heard what Prefect Li said, he didn't even remember that he had a daughter.
It cannot be blamed for him. If you want to blame, you blame Hua Jingwen herself. She has always despised the origin of the Hua family and mostly lives in a foreign home. Master Hua rarely cares about the affairs of the back house. Even if he thinks of Hua Jingwen, Master Hua probably doesn't know whether Hua Jingwen is in a foreign home or in the mansion at this moment.
A moment later, there were a sound of howlings outside the door, and Mrs. Lu was brought over.
When she learned that someone had come to Shuntian Mansion, Mrs. Lu had already asked someone to guard the house. The gate of the courtyard was closed and more than a dozen guards were sent. However, she did not expect that when the guards saw Chen Xiao and Yin, they were so scared that they dared not move. They came to Bo Mansion as guards to deal with thieves and robbers, not to let them resist the government. They could clearly see which one was more important.
The guards admitted their defeat, let alone the maids and mothers inside, and they could do nothing but cry.
Chen Xiao and Captain Yin brought Mrs. Lu over without any effort.
Seeing that the person coming was really Mrs. Lu, Master Hua's temple was thundering. He rushed up and slapped without saying a word. Mrs. Lu was unprepared and was so dazzled.
"You poisonous woman, I want to divorce you!" Master Hua roared.
Only then did Mrs. Lu recover from her senses. She covered her face and defended: "It was not me who killed her, she fell to the ground by herself. I didn't kill her. All these women can prove it!"
The mothers who came with Mrs. Lu quickly nodded: "Yes, that's right, we all saw that the old lady fell to the ground by herself, and the lady went to save the people."
Upon hearing this, Prefect Li looked at Luo Junzhu and asked, "Luo Junzhu, can the cause of death be confirmed?"
Luo Junzhu said: "The deceased had a triangular wound on the back of his head and dust on the edge. It was initially believed that the deceased fell on his back and was injured by sharp stones in the back of his head. He suffered excessive bleeding and was injured and died of the back of his head."
At this time, an arrestee came in from outside and handed the stone wrapped in a veil to Luo Jiezi: "There is a pavement outside the courtyard where Mrs. Lu lives with thin ice. I think it was washed by water and this stone was found nearby."
There are blood stains on the stones.
Luo Lun compared the stones with the wounds in the back of Mrs. Cai, which was the same.
As if he saw the savior, Mrs. Lu immediately defended herself: "You can see it too. The old lady fell down by herself and just happened to hit a stone. This has nothing to do with me."
Master Hua also breathed a sigh of relief. When the old lady heard that the fourth brother had died, she was anxious and accidentally fell to the ground and unfortunately died. The cause of death was high-sounding. If people in the world were to blame, they could only be afraid that the fourth brother would be unfilial, which would implicate the uncle's mansion and kill the legitimate mother.
Logically speaking, even though the fourth brother died, he had to pick one out of his nephew and make a banner for him. The half of his property was inherited by the nephew. The eldest house had only one son, but the second house had two sons, and the third house had no son. The person who made a banner could only get from the second house, and the half of his property was the second house.
Mr. Hua has been thinking about how to get the second wife to get half of the property these two days. He even wanted to find a beggar on the street to recognize his ancestors and say that it was the son of the fourth child outside...
Now that the problem has been solved, the fourth brother still implicated his mother after his death, it is equivalent to killing his mother. Such an unfilial person is not worthy of being a descendant of the Hua family. At that time, as long as the ancestral hall is reopened and the fourth brother will be driven out of the wall in front of the ancestors and ancestors.
A man who was expelled from the house would just throw his body into the mass grave. He would kill a banner and help the spirit? Dream!
As for the half of the property left by the fourth brother, he had been in the Bo Mansion account before. After he died, the third brother would definitely not want to pay attention to the ownership of the half of the property. The second brother is the most greedy, and then he would have to think of a way to make the second brother cut off this thought.
"Prince Li, you are laughing at me. My fourth brother, alas, my poor mother treats him as her biological child and has never treated him poorly. He never expected that he would repay his kindness and revenge, so that his mother would... if she had not gone to the yamen to handle official duties, and stayed with her mother at home, and was entertaining her relatives in colorful clothes. How could her mother do this? I blame me, all of them! "
As he said that, Master Hua turned around, rushed to the kang, fell to the ground, and cried loudly.
Hua Jingyao blinked her eyes, and she was suspected that Mr. Hua Si had a peerless magical skill. She threw a stone across several miles, hitting the back of Mrs. Cai’s head without bias. Mrs. Cai was bleeding and she died!
It turns out that Master Hua Si is the one who has long been extinct in the world who has already cut off the blood and sealed his throat with a hundred steps through Yang Kuai Killer, who has been nicknamed Shadowless Hand Ghost.
Puff, this is all messy.
"This woman, let me ask you, since the old lady was killed by this little stone that didn't know how to die, why did you say that the old lady was killed by anger? It was obvious that the old lady's body had already become cold. Why did you lie that the old lady had just died?"
Hua Jingyao stretched out her finger and pointed at the old lady just now.
The woman was shocked. She thought she had nothing to do here, but she didn't expect Miss Hua to question her.
The situation was urgent at that time, and Mrs. Lu was panicked. This was Mama Rong's idea. Mama Rong asked them to insist that the old lady was so angry that she died of the fourth master's affairs.
If I had known this, I would have said that I had fallen to the ground and died.
The old lady had to bite the bullet and said, "The old lady is generous and kind, and treats me very well. When the old lady had an accident, she was in a state of pain and was confused. She spoke without saying anything for a while. Now I remembered that the old lady was indeed falling to the ground, being hit by a stone, and she had a lot of blood."
Hua Jingyao sneered and said, "Then you were talking nonsense just now? You are so confused about the public. Could it be that you are the fourth master's accomplice, and you are afraid that the old lady will die. So while the old lady was walking, they pushed the old lady to the ground. In fact, the stone was put in advance, and you killed the old lady in front of everyone. You are the real murderer. That stone is your weapon. What I am right?"
