Rebirth as Princess Jin again

Seeing Su Ying dressed in rich clothes, the woman sobbed and said: "Madam, my man and two sons drowned in this river. I just want to go to the river to worship, but they don't let me go. I argued with them. Not only did they He refused to listen and said I was being careless and pushed me to the ground."

"Now I and my two youngest sons are the only ones left in this family. The head of the family is dead. I can't live like this anymore!"

Situ Jin looked at the official in front of him coldly and said, "Since she just went to the river to worship the dead, why not let her go?"

The official looked at them for a while and said: "They don't look like locals. The river has risen a few days ago, and people have drowned in the river. The county magistrate is worried that someone will have an accident by the river, so he Let us stay here."

Situ Jin asked again: "Is your county magistrate Wang Jin?"

The official glanced at him and did not answer directly. Instead, he said: "You should stop meddling in other people's business and leave here quickly! If you are just here for fun, I advise you not to ask too much."

Situ Jin still wanted to speak, but Su Ying pulled his clothes from behind.

Su Ying supported the woman and offered to take them home. The woman refused at first, but when she heard Su Ying mentioned that she wanted to visit her home and help her, the woman hesitated for a while and took them with her. Several people went to their homes.

After about half a cup of tea, the group finally arrived at the woman's house.

Su Ying originally thought that the woman's family had a large population and was not very wealthy.

When I entered the yard, I realized that the entire yard was in good order. Four square vegetable plots were cultivated next to the yard, where fruits and vegetables that were most suitable for this season were planted. The vegetable plot was neatly tended and produced abundant fruits.

The firewood piled neatly under the wall next to the house was piled neatly, and even the farm tools were placed squarely there.

Everything in the yard is in order, which shows that the owner of this house is a person who loves life.

Su Ying couldn't help but sigh: "This yard is so clean."

After hearing this, the woman's eyes turned red again: "We used to live a prosperous life. My head of the household was a diligent man. He would leave early and come home late every day, taking his two sons out to fish."

"Our family is living a prosperous life, but since the head of the family's accident happened, I feel that there is no hope for this life. If it weren't for the two younger children in the family, I would have gone with them. .”

Su Ying took the woman's hand and sat down, and asked, "Did your head really drown to death?"

The woman hesitated to speak, lowering her head and saying nothing.

Su Ying winked at Situ Jin, and Situ Jin took out a money bag and handed it to Su Ying.

Su Ying put the money bag into the woman's hand: "I know you are in trouble now, you keep the money, and if you don't want to do those things, I won't force you!"

The woman looked at the money bag in her hand in shock, suddenly plopped down on her knees and said, "Thank you, madam!"

Su Ying hurriedly helped her up. Maybe she was in trouble, but Su Ying was not willing to force others to make things difficult for her, so she prepared to leave with her people.

The woman suddenly stepped forward and closed the door to her home. She took Su Ying's hand and said, "My man didn't die of drowning. He drowned after his hands and feet were tied."

"The day my man died, it was the officials by the river who brought my man's body to my home. My man and son have lived by the river since they were young."

"I know how to drink water since I was a child. Even if I fall into the river, I will not drown. After the bodies were returned that day, I found that there were strangulation marks on their wrists and ankles. It was clear that their hands and feet were tied. But those people were very They said they drowned and forced me to bury them quickly.”

"I, a weak woman, can't fight them, so I want to go to Pingcheng to report to the officials. I heard that the magistrate of Pingcheng is a good official, but they are guarding the entrance of the village and I can't get out at all."

"I wanted to go to the river today to look for clues, but I found that the river was surrounded by them."

"My men must have discovered their secret. There must be something hidden by the river to make them take such precautions."

Situ Jin and Su Ying looked at each other. Su Ying held her cold hand and said, "Have you told anyone else about this?"

The woman shook her head: "I know you are not ordinary people. The reason why you come here must be related to what my man saw that night. I just want to seek justice for him."

Su Ying consoled her: "Thank you for telling me this. Never tell anyone else what happened today. If you want to keep this alive, don't tell anyone if you ask."

"Also, live a good life with your two children, stop thinking about going to Pingcheng, and protect yourself."

The woman knelt down and kowtowed heavily: "Thank you, madam!"

As soon as Su Ying and her party opened the door, they saw the few officials they had seen by the river walking towards the yard.

Su Ying deliberately said loudly: "I'm bothering my sister-in-law today, so I won't eat any food. We have to hurry!"

It wasn't until Su Ying and the others returned to the restaurant again, and the figures following them saw that they had children with them, that they believed they were really here for fun, and quickly left quietly.

As night falls, the entire Qingshui Town is quiet and peaceful.

Several figures quietly slipped out of the inn and followed the day's route toward the river.

A few hundred meters away from the river, a group of people sneaked into the water and swam against the river towards the heavily defended river.

During the day, the officials hid in the darkness, staring at the movements by the river with their ears pricked up.

The village was completely silent at night, except for the sounds of unknown summer insects.

"Boss, how long are we going to stay here?"

"I don't know. It said it might take a few more days. It's been very busy these days, so everyone should keep their spirits up."

"What do you think the group of people today are about? I always feel like something is wrong."

"The boss has gone to see it himself. Taking the children out is not just for sightseeing. Qingshui Town is most famous for its fish. The restaurant they live in is the most famous restaurant in Qingshui Town."

"That's right, our mission is to keep these things safe, and don't worry about other things. Don't ruin the master's important affairs."

.........

Several people were chatting on the shore, but little did they know that everything they said fell into the ears of others.

The river was pitch black at night, and there wasn't even the slightest bit of moonlight tonight.

The river flowed with a roar, and the surface of the river seemed calm and calm, but it was extremely lively under the water.

The group of people who dived into the water quietly sneaked back to the shore and headed towards Qingshui Town quietly under the cover of night.

It wasn't until the dim sky in the distance revealed the hazy skylight that the group returned to the inn.
