New widow

Butcher Chen was forced to kneel down: "My lord, my lord, that day, that day, it did rise to the sky, but I know that my knife only poked lightly, how could it kill someone?"

"Just a slight poke?" Zhang Qing asked, and Butcher Chen suddenly started crying: "I dare to kill pigs, but how can I dare to kill people?"

"That's not necessarily the case. Some people say that if you kill a pig in this life, you will become a pig in the next life. You might just kill someone just because of this." There were government servants making wisecracks there. How could Butcher Chen listen to these wisecracks at this time? With a mournful face: "I did not kill him, I just met him on the road and we had a few disagreements. He came to grab my knife, but I refused to give it to him. During the argument, I stabbed him with the tip of the knife. I said He deserved to leave, but who would have expected to hear that he was dead the next day.”

As he spoke, Butcher Chen kowtowed repeatedly: "My lord, my lord, everything I said is the truth."

"Whether it's the truth or a lie, you can tell it inside the Yamen." Zhang Qing motioned to everyone to take Butcher Chen away. Butcher Chen had already seen Liu Daniu and said loudly: "I know, it's your mother who deliberately used words to instigate us. , I just had sex with someone, your mother, everything is your mother."

"Sir, how can my mother, a vegetable grower, know this?" When Liu Daniu saw Butcher Chen biting Mrs. Du, he immediately knelt down to Zhang Qing. Zhang Qing smiled and said, "Bring it back to the Yamen first, then of course it will be done to the court." To be taken.”

Liu Daniu's mouth suddenly opened wide, not knowing what to say. Zhang Qing commanded the government officials to take the person away. Everyone who heard the noise came out to see, so they spread the news and soon everyone knew that it was Butcher Chen who killed him.

people.

"Madam, look, it was Butcher Chen who did this." Naturally, Nanny Wu also heard about it and went to talk to Su Qiao, but Su Qiao only waved her hand: "You have to do what Butcher Chen said. That butcher's knife only poked me once, so there won't be any big wounds."

If there was a big wound, Butcher Chen would cover it up or even destroy the body to eliminate traces. After all, he was a pig butcher and knew very well how to destroy a body.

Instead of letting the mason lie there, Nanny Wu frowned after hearing this: "What do you mean, Madam, the murderer is not actually Butcher Chen?"

"He made the first cut, maybe someone made the second cut." Suqiao said lightly, and Nanny Wu was confused: "I'm just a plasterer, so it doesn't matter like this."

"You don't know, sometimes, just an insignificant person, an insignificant thing, ends up killing a whole family." Su Qiao's words made Nanny Wu even more confused, and she frowned. Wrinkled: "I don't understand what you mean anymore."

"They did an autopsy and they only said that the butcher's knife was used to kill the plasterer, but they didn't say that there were several wounds." After saying this, Su Qiao shook her head: "That's all, it's not something I can do to resolve the case."

"Madam, please don't belittle yourself." Aunt Wu's words made Su Qiao smile lightly. Su Qiao wanted to do many things, but Su Qiao knew that in this world, many things could only be thought about.

Zhang Qing sent Butcher Chen to the prison, and went to report it to the prefect first. The prefect was not very happy when he heard that he had been caught, and only replied that he knew it. Zhang Qing knew that this was because the prefect had no way to deal with Su Du. Again

What should I do to be so angry?

Zhang Qing bowed and then left. When he walked out of the Yamen, he saw Su Du coming towards him. Just as Zhang Qing was about to speak, Su Du opened his mouth and said, "Did you send someone to jail?"

"Everyone heard it when we arrested him, and he admitted it himself." Zhang Qing's words made Su Du frown slightly: "I came to find you, naturally, because this matter is very strange."

With that said, Su Du took Zhang Qing to the Tongpan Yamen. The Tongpan Yamen was much smaller than the prefect's Yamen, but larger than the Tuiguan Yamen. Su Du finally had a study room, unlike Zhang Qing's Yamen. There is not even a study room, so I can only work in the bedroom.

"During the autopsy, two scars were found." Su Du opened his mouth and almost spilled the tea in Zhang Qing's hand: "What's this all about? He's just a small plasterer."

"One life is enough to stir up trouble." Su Du said meaningfully, and Zhang Qing sighed: "Who is this person who stirs up wind and rain?"

And for what purpose? Zhang Qing thought about the corpse he had just discovered that day, and when he found the owner, he kept saying that Sister Song was the murderer, and what the magistrate did after that.

Zhang Qing frowned: "It can't be because Mrs. Kuang rejected the marriage proposal and refuted the family's face. This family has a grudge, right?"

"Sometimes, something you think you can't do may be the answer." Su Du's words made Zhang Qing gasp: "How could it be possible? How could it be possible?"

"Why not?" Su Du asked back, and Zhang Qing frowned even more tightly: "If that's the case, then if you asked for marriage in the first place and then encountered problems one after another after the marriage was arranged, shouldn't your family hold a grudge even more. "

Su

Du coughed and Zhang Qing put his hands upright: "It's not mine, I shouldn't compare you to it."

"No, what you said is right." Su Du said softly. Even if the Nanyang Marquis Mansion feels that it has been refuted, it will not hold a grudge and want to cause the other family a big pain. After all, being an official in the same dynasty means that you give me face, I give you face, hello, me, hello, everyone. But Mrs. Du didn’t think so. When she married into the Shangshu Mansion, Wang Shangshu had already retired and stayed at home. On this ground, Wang Shangshu is the highest-ranking official. Whether they are passing officials or officials who come to work here, they must visit him.

Although Mrs. Du didn't straighten her up, when they started to interact with each other, the female relatives only praised her when they interacted with her. Mrs. Nedai could only recognize this concubine. All these things made Mrs. Du feel that she was omnipotent in this world. After all, the prefect's wife could only deal with the housekeeper of Shangshu Mansion.

Zhang Qing couldn't help but sigh: "Fortunately, you and I don't have any family members. If we had family members, I would be fine, but your wife would be angry."

The daughters-in-law of the Nanyang Marquis Mansion are naturally ladies from well-known families, and they are all well-educated and well-educated. It is precisely because of being well-educated and well-educated that Mrs. Du will make trouble more and more in their presence. Who knows how much grievance she will suffer by then.

"So this matter seems to be a small matter. If it is not handled well, it will be difficult." After saying this, Su Du said: "Anyway, let's spread the word first and say that the real culprit has been caught. "

This was to make the real murderer relax his vigilance. Zhang Qing nodded and went out to make arrangements. Su Du couldn't help but think of Su Qiao. Did she think about it when she chose to live in seclusion in this place?

Have you ever encountered so much trouble? Still, Suqiao would think that there would be trouble everywhere and she wouldn't be afraid of anything.
