Chapter 196

After Zhu Yunwen and Zhang Yu discussed the handling of Zhang Tinggui, the most critical part began. Needless to say, who is the mastermind of this case is solved. This is like a case in a case. There is a case interspersed with a case and there is only one murderer.

"Your Highness, what you mean is..."

"We just need to find out who killed these women, and the truth will be revealed."

From here, Li Ying can prove that Wu Yong killed her sister Li Min. The rest is to find the other victims. This was an extremely simple thing. Zhu Yunwen first thought of searching for the missing people in nearby prefectures and counties in recent years in Zhang Tinggui's office, but he was surprised to find that there was no missing person in nearby prefectures and counties.

"How is this possible..."

"Your Highness the Crown Prince, could it be that Wu Yong deliberately deleted the record?"

"Impossible! Wu Yong will definitely not be able to cover the sky with one hand. Even if he can do it in Changzhou County, then other counties in the province..."

Everyone agreed with Zhu Yunwen's statement, and finally everyone came to a conclusion, that is, those missing girls are either orphans or their parents don't know about her disappearance at all.

"Do you contact Li Ying's parents?"

"Report to the Crown Prince, the man is already on the road..."

"Where are the parents of other victims?"

"We have managed to find it, and I believe there will be news soon."

Zhu Yunwen thought about it and decided to post the royal list to find the parents of the missing girls, but it was still dead. Zhu Yunwen was really puzzled. Zhu Yunwen was in a dilemma and recalled Wu Yong's confident look. Finally, he came to a conclusion. He believed that the parents of the missing girls probably didn't know the truth that their daughter was dead. This might be some kind of deception.

"Your Highness, what you mean is..."

"This is very simple. If someone uses Zhang Tinggui's name to intimidate the parents of those girls, do you think they think their daughter is dead?"

"You said Wu Yong has been acting all the time, whether it is to Zhang Tinggui or the victim's family."

Zhu Yunwen has not yet made a conclusion, but he believes that the problem must be with the girls' parents. How did Wu Yong deceive them? It is very likely that the truth will be revealed until the parents of these victims come here.

"Your Highness, Li Ying's parents have arrived at the government office..."

"I see."

Zhu Yunwen plans to meet Li Ying's parents in person, not only to find out the truth of the case, but also to say sorry to them. After all, this is a mistake made by his subordinate officials. As the prince, he has no choice but to be responsible.

"Li Xian, a civilian, and Zhang, pay tribute to the prince..."

"Get up and talk..."

"Thank you, Prince..."

Zhu Yunwen took the initiative to apologize to them and promised to compensate them, but he did not expect that the two elders would want nothing, and their only request was to make decisions for their daughter's grievances.

"Two old men, please rest assured, I will definitely give Li Min a fairness."

"Thank you, Your Highness, Prince." The two old men couldn't help but burst into tears.

After Zhu Yunwen and the two old men were slightly calmed down, he began to ask about the case. The first question Zhu Yunwen and others was to ask who contacted them and what name they did. This question actually came to the key point of the question, including the problem that Zhu Yunwen had never figured out, and it was solved. It turned out that this master had always used the name of the county magistrate to rob the people of the people of the county magistrate, which also meant that Li Ying's parents always believed that their daughter was a concubine for the county magistrate, and the master would send silver for every festival. This reason made them mess around. In addition, they were all very afraid of officials, and over time they did not ask about their daughter. This was the case for Li Ying's parents, and even the families of other victims were the same.

"General Li, please send an order to contact all Zhang Tinggui's wives and concubines' foreign families, remember to tell the people in the government office to do this..."

"I'll go now..."

Zhu Yunwen asked Luo Yue to gather all Zhang Tinggui's wives and concubines and the victims. Zhu Yunwen was going to have a special trial, and soon the yamen runners found all the victim's parents.

"You go down and see, it's just that your parents and relatives recognize each other..."

"Thank you, Prince..."

The victims rushed to their parents crying and shouting, but everyone soon found that only three families were standing alone, and this was no longer the parents of the three dead girls.

"General Li, call them over, I want to meet them in person..."

"Yes, Your Highness the Crown Prince..."

Zhu Yunwen met these old men in the inner hall. After he explained his purpose, the old men burst into tears. Finally, they all proposed a condition, which was to look at the body of their daughter.

"I can meet your request, a few old men, but I'm sorry, we don't know that one is your daughter..."

"Your Highness, we understand, just recognize it yourself..."

This may be destined. These old men soon recognized their daughters. Whether it was the accessories on them or the broken clothes left behind, they were sure that these dead victims were their daughters.

"How can you do this if you are so damn guy..."

"Your Highness, please make sure to make decisions for us..."

The old men knelt down one after another. Their only request was to let His Royal Highness the Crown Prince avenge their daughter. Zhu Yunwen agreed to their request and asked them about all the clues. Zhu Yunwen quickly knew that all this was Wu Yong's fault. They also deceived Wu Yong like other victims. The only thing they didn't need was that these three families received the most silver, which was more than three times that of other families. Wu Yong did this purely because he was guilty, and it might be because he was afraid that the families of these victims would come to him. After all, this was not a joke. If they really made a fuss, they would lose their heads.

"Your Highness, what should we do next..."

"This is simple, as long as you confront it, you will know everything."

Zhu Yunwen first summoned Zhang Tinggui, which could be the most critical step, because only he could prove that he had nothing to do with the victims. This was the most critical step that Wu Yong was as big as Wu Yong. If you don’t understand the situation from him first, you would be very passive to deal with a cunning guy like Wu Yong.

"Zhang Tinggui, you have evidence to prove that it has nothing to do with those victims..."

"Your Highness, I admit that I have been marrying a militia, but I am still a matchmaker who is marrying it. Even if I take a concubine, I have a letter of appointment..."

"Zhang Tinggui, what you mean is to confront those victims..."

"Yes."

Zhang Tinggui's confrontation proved his innocence. It turned out that this group of victims didn't know Zhang Tinggui at all. There was no such thing as robbing a girl from the people, let alone killing people to silence him. It wasn't enough that Zhang Tinggui told a truth that everyone couldn't believe. It turned out that he and these forced concubines actually had a secret agreement. This was actually their own contract. Zhang Tinggui bought these girls from their parents to be concubines. Even Wu Yong didn't know about this.
