Chapter 432
When the shopkeeper said this, he glanced at the buyer and quietly pulled Zhang Cheng to the sidelines.
"I dare not hide it from you. Now everyone says that the forest is haunted!"
Zhang Cheng also changed his face when he heard this. People were superstitious and were very afraid of the sayings of ghosts and gods. He also lowered his voice and asked,
“How to say it?”
"The place where Old Xiaotou was hanging was found. Yesterday they searched for someone in the middle of the night. They were just spinning around. No one saw the hanging Old Xiaotou..."
Paused and said,
"Old Xiao said he was hanged, but there was a black palm print on his neck..."
After saying that, the head of the village gestured to choke his neck,
"Then... that's it... They all said that Lao Xiaotou was wandering around the mountains and forests, and he could not have messed with a ghost on the grave. He was picked up by the ghost and was killed by the ghost's neck..."
Zhang Cheng's face became more and more serious when he heard this, but he still had to take care of the buyer and turned around and smiled.
"It's just an old man from the farmhouse. He died of a sudden loss of thought. No big deal..."
But the buyer was not a fool. When he heard that a person had died, he found an excuse to leave. When he turned around, he found out that it was a haunted man in the farm and immediately sent someone to sell it to him!
Zhang Cheng didn't dare to hide it, so he reported it to Silian at that time. Silian raised his eyebrows when he heard this.
"Oh...is there anything like this?"
The killing method can be done by people in the world, but how an old man from a farmer makes enemies with people in the world is a bit strange!
Silian immediately ordered people to prepare horses.
"Let's go and have a look!"
Here I took a carriage out of the city to see the body of the old Xiaotou. When I arrived at the place, the Xiao family had already set up a mourning hall. Outside the house, white banners were flying in the wind. Silian, as the Dong family, went over to give Lao Xiaotou three incense sticks. I gave some money. The Xiao family was a family of the main dealer. Seeing that the owner came here in person, he was so approachable and harmonious. He was very moved. When he heard that he was going to open a coffin and examine the autopsy, he did not hesitate. At that time, they took Silian in. It was not that they saw the money and were disrespectful to the dead, but that this person died strangely. They were also muttering in their hearts that if the old lady had not thought about letting her old man get into peace as soon as possible, she would have been the child. We are all going to report to the officials!
Mou Biao nodded,
He smiled,
After saying that, he raised his hand and pointed to the southwest. Si Lian asked with wide eyes,
"We entrusted the money to this person and asked him to find a safe hiding place for us. If things really change, we will leave Beijing and go to Shuzhong first, hide for a few years before we can do anything afterwards!"
Si Lian nodded after hearing this,
"It's my father-in-law's friend, so it's very credible!"
The man in the dark had a lot of brains to choose for a while, and finally turned his attention to the most outstanding girl beside Si Lian.
"This woman is so beautiful, and looking at her body shape, she is clearly broken. It seems that it is probably the warm bed girl Mou Biao is holding by her side. Although the Jia family is smart, she looks ordinary. He just barely called him a pretty girl. It was far from this girl. He couldn't say that she was not favored in the backyard. It would be better to find a way to kill this girl and blame Jia. In order to prove her innocence, Jia It must be done personally!”
Not to mention that the man had planned secretly, he also said that during this period, Silian successfully sold the property in her hand, but received nearly 100,000 taels of silver. She asked Mou Biao how to deal with it. Mou Biao thought about it and said with a smile. ,
"I don't hide it from you now. In fact, I left two retreats, light and dark. On the surface, I and Gu San and others are doing business in the south, and there are friends from the beach. If we want to leave, we will probably go to the south.
…”
Si Lian nodded after hearing this.
"So I secretly found another way out..."
"good!"
Mou Biao nodded,
"The country of Tianfu is a united unit. Although it is also governed by the court, there are many barbarians, and they all make lands as kings and do not accept the court's discipline. They have a clan elders and manage their own clan members and territory. The court will not interfere easily.
We went there and hid in the mountains. Even if they were looking for death, they would not be able to find it. When the limelight passed, we would go to the south to take a look..."
The woman nodded,
Now,
So after discussing with Wang's mother, she took Wang's mother and Cuixi. Cuiqiao left first, leaving Hongtao and Hongyu. Liu Xing and the other two packed up their things and returned tomorrow. Si Lian returned to the mansion that day. After returning to the mansion,
Silian went to see Mrs. Liu first. When Liu saw her, she looked at her and said with a smile.
"I have a rosy complexion and my body is well maintained!"
These days, the Beizhen Fusi Yamen has been loose on the outside and tight on the inside. It looks calm outside. It has lost the arrogance and domineering moments before, and the evil deeds of arresting people all over the streets, but inside is in full swing to interrogate the prisoners.
Looking for evidence.
The eldest son of the Xiao family plucked up his courage to press the throat of his father. Sure enough, his hands were soft and there was no place to focus on his body.
"This is because of congestion and swelling after the throat is broken. If you use a knife to cut it open, there must be blood stasis inside..."
Liu nodded and waved her to sit down.
"Don't blame me for calling you back in a hurry, but your fourth sister's marriage is a little more anxious. She wants to get married in a hurry. Your second sister-in-law is angry again, so she can only call you back to help!"
"You press your hand to the throat joint of Xiao..."
Although this matter has changed, not many people care about it anymore, but the emperor now cares. Emperor Hongzhi is determined to deal with Wang Wanting and severely injured the prince. If the Jinyiwei really finds evidence, Wang Wanting will be given to Emperor Hongzhi who has brought up the old accounts.
He's dismounted!
Although Emperor Jing was not kind to his own brother, he was always the emperor. It was not the turn of his ministers to murder him. Not to mention that Wang Wanting participated in the murder of him, even if he had something to do with this matter, the Jinyiwei could find Emperor Hongzhi.
A high-sounding reason to rectify him.
The old woman who reported the news said,
"Madam Eighth Young Master, our wife said that things in the mansion are a little urgent. Let you go back today!"
Silian nodded when she heard this.
Silian smiled and gave a bow again.
"How is my mother-in-law so happy recently?"
Because Guan's belly became bigger and he was unable to move. She had some fetal aura recently and could only sleep in bed indoors to protect her fetus. Liu summoned Silian back to help, and Silian naturally had to respond. So
In front of the sender, he ordered Mother Wang and others,
"Did you mean going to Shuzhong or Yunnan and Guizhou?"
"good!"
Now that the boss has come forward, the Xiao family’s mother dares not say much, but just crying outside, telling the man’s hard work and misfortune in this life. The Xiao family opened the coffin and showed Si Lian. Si Lian carefully observed the old Xiaotou’s expression.
There are also the handprints on the neck, and I immediately understood that this person was afraid that he would be killed by someone!
Thinking about the Four Lotus Dao,
"Your money is better to send to Bashu in advance. My father has a very reliable friend there. He was also an Jinyiwei in his early years. He only had four fingers behind him and returned to his hometown to do grain business. Now he is doing a good business in Shuzhong.
He is the king and keeps his finger. His father has been secretly interacting with him over the years and never shows him in front of others. Therefore, not many people know his relationship with our family..."
He paused,
"Actually, I thought so too before, but later I felt that this was clear that people would come to chase after me..."
So the Xiao family really followed the words of the boss and reported to the official. When the government heard this, they immediately sent a coroner to cut open the throat. Sure enough, blood was pouring out and the throat bones were broken. Then checked that there were no injuries everywhere on the body. The coroner's way,
"The fatal injury is the throat, which was suffocated to death by someone pinching his throat and suffocating..."
Mou Biao stayed at home for only one night and went to the yamen again, while Liu from Mou Mansion sent someone to come.
"Mrs. said that the marriage of the fourth lady in the mansion has been decided. She is a cousin of the second aunt's family. She has already won the juren before..."
Speaking of Emperor Jing, there are many people in the capital who can tell him. How did this Emperor Daizong take office in danger and how did he treat his brother who returned from disasters? He was later placed under house arrest and died in the end.
, descendants all said that he was murdered after being under house arrest by Emperor Yingzong, but no one dared to say that when Emperor Yingzong was in power, there were rumors that only after Emperor Yingzong's death. After three dynasties, the Jinyiwei found out that Lord Wang seemed to have some involvement in this matter.
"So urgent?"
"It's indeed a bit urgent, but I don't know how to make it urgent. The old slave just said that he would ask the eighth young lady to go home and then explain in detail..."
The government decided that this was a revenge, so it sent people to investigate the people who had a grudge against Lao Xiaotou. Silian saw someone taking over, so she returned to the city in a carriage. She didn't know if someone was in the dark.
Extremely upset,
"Miscalculation! Miscalculation! This deaf and mute old man had no relatives and no reason for her, and the cause of death was too obvious. She didn't need to take action at all. What kind of person should she pick to take to have her undergone a autopsy?"
After saying that, he gave advice to the eldest son of the Xiao family.
"Pack up our things, we will go home tomorrow..."
"Even the cousin of the second aunt's family, and also a juren, I think it's pretty good!"
"That's it... Then I'll go back to my house first..."
Si Lian was a little strange when she heard this.
"I see the strange thing about Mr. Xiao's death. This is not because he was pinched by a ghost, but because he was pinched by a man of high-skilled martial arts and suffocated to death..."
Mou Biao arranged Si Lian's affairs properly and devoted himself to official duties. The Jinyiwei is really capable. If you want to investigate, there is really no one who can't find out. The elder Wang Wanting, Wang Wanting, was actually dug up by them for many years.
Previously, when Lord Wang first entered the court and became an official, he participated in the death of Emperor Jing.
So Silian's 100,000 taels of silver were secretly sent to Shuzhong...
"Oh...why are you so anxious?"
Liu Shidao,
"Originally, they were very satisfied after seeing each other. We decided to choose the wedding date on the day of autumn, but the old man there suddenly left... In order to avoid delaying their marriage, we prepared to do so.
Hot filial piety to get married!”
Silian suddenly realized when she heard this.
"I see……"
She stayed in Liu's place for two hours and had a discussion with Liu's family. Fortunately, she was very skilled in the marriage of the Mou Mansion. In addition, this time she became more and more simple, so she handled Mou Si.
Chapter completed!
