Kaifeng mansion's first drama

When Pang Yuanying ran back to Liu Xiucai's residence, Uncle Wang and the plump woman who had humiliated Liu Xiucai's mother and son at the village gate were walking over.

Pang Yuanying, Bai Yutang, and Pang Yuanqing ignored them and rushed into the courtyard. Pang Yuanying went to check the wing room where the village head lived, while Bai Yutang and Pang Yuanqing went to the back room to check the situation of Liu Xiucai's mother and child.

The village head, Xiong Feng, was still lying on the sickbed, in a coma.Yang Xiwang, a villager who followed Xiong Feng and stayed to take care of him, disappeared at this moment.

Pang Yuanqing hurried out from the main room, covered his mouth and ran under the wall to vomit.

"Mother and son are both dead." Pang Yuanqing reluctantly said while holding back his nausea.

When Uncle Wang and the plump woman entered the door, the two keenly noticed that Pang Yuanying and Pang Yuanqing's expressions were wrong, and asked what happened.

"Look at the village chief, I'll go and have a look." Pang Yuanying explained to Pang Yuanqing, and then said to Uncle Wang and the others, "You stand in the courtyard and don't move anywhere without my order."

Pang Yuanying rushed into the main room, while Bai Yutang was inspecting the bodies of Liu Xiucai's mother and son.Because of being tied up, the two cuddled together and fell on the couch, losing their breath.There was no wound on the body, but there was something abnormal about the neck. After touching the back of the neck, it was found that both of them had their necks broken.

"Broken neck and died." Bai Yutang said.

Pang Yuanying looked around the room. He had put the jade gourd on the table with the bronze mirror before, but now the gourd is gone.

The back window was open, and Pang Yuanying touched the window sill, but didn't catch any dirt.There are many weeds growing behind the window, the roots are upright and very vigorous.

"It won't be long, I'll go after it." Bai Yutang was about to jump out of the window as he spoke, but Pang Yuanying grabbed him.

The two went back to check the cellar of the firewood house. No one had touched it, and all the money was there.

"As expected, it's nearly a thousand taels of silver. It's very heavy, and there's no way to move it away flexibly in a short time. Besides, the mother and son hid the money very secretly, and outsiders should generally not know it. It wasn't the money that the murderer planned, but the money. That jade gourd."

Pang Yuanying and Bai Yutang returned to the wing room to check on the unconscious village chief on the bed. He was motionless and could not be woken up, but fortunately he was still breathing.

Uncle Wang and others came together and asked Pang Yuanying what happened.

"Go and see the main room yourself," Pang Yuanying said.

Uncle Wang and the others looked at each other twice, wanting to check each other's attitude.In the end, they decided to go to the main room to check on Liu Xiucai's mother and son.

The plump woman did not dare to go and stayed behind.

After a while, shouts came from the main room, and several people rushed out one after another.

"What happened?" the plump woman asked.

Uncle Wang stared wide-eyed in horror, "Dead, all dead!"

The plump woman was so frightened that she turned her head and asked Pang Yuanying what was going on.

"How do I know, the three of us outsiders were not at the scene when the incident happened. Most of the murderers are people from your own village." Pang Yuanying opened his mouth and shirked responsibility.

The plump woman did not expect that Mr. Shaoyin, who came from the famous Kaifeng Mansion, would speak in such an unscrupulous and irresponsible way, no different from other officials.

"Master Shaoyin, there is a murder case, shouldn't you advocate it? And why are their mother and child tied up in the room?" Uncle Wang said.

"Where's the jade gourd? Is the jade gourd here?" The plump woman suddenly remembered this, and hurriedly asked Uncle Wang, with an indescribable eagerness in her eyes.

Uncle Wang shook his head at the plump woman.

"The family heirloom, what do you care about? Even if their mother and child die, they don't have your share." Pang Yuanying said.

"My lord, that's not the reason. This jade gourd is the treasure of our entire village. It's just because the ancestor of the Liu family has done a lot for the village. Everyone admires him and keeps things there. It's not about me. A woman is fooling you, the family tree in the village says it." The plump woman said kindly.

Pang Yuanying: "It seems that Liu Xiucai's mother and son lied. He said that this thing is a family heirloom of their family, and you all covet it."

"We covet it? We are protecting it. Following the instructions of our ancestors, we have protected it. The village is here, and the gourd is here." The plump woman argued.

"You are?" Pang Yuanying saw that when the woman spoke, other men in the village did not object, so she asked her identity.

"Bailishi, the richest and most prestigious family in our village, her husband joined the army at the seventh rank in Xiangzhou." Uncle Wang explained to Pang Yuanying in a low voice.

"There are still dragons and crouching tigers hidden in your village." Pang Yuanying sarcastically said.

Tian Cha hurried over with the hot cakes in his hands. Seeing that there were so many people, everyone's emotions were not quite right, and they were stunned after entering the door.

Pang Yuanying asked Tian Cha to put the food on the table first, and asked someone who had a chicken to bring a chicken to test whether there was poison in the tea.

"How could it be poisonous?" Tian Cha looked dumbfounded.

Pang Yuanying told him to leave it alone and just watch.

After pouring the tea into the chicken's belly, the chicken thumped weakly on the ground and died.

Tian Cha was so frightened that he knelt down trembling, crying that he hadn't poisoned himself, he really didn't know what happened.

Uncle Wang, Bailishi and others accused Tian Cha of being vicious, and tried to poison all the adults and village chiefs to death.

"Say, do you want to steal the jade gourd?" Bailishi asked.

Tian Cha was so anxious that she was about to cry, and said that she hadn't.He had already prepared the herbal tea and put it in the well. When the village chief came to ask for tea, he took a can and poured it into a teapot and brought it over.

"I've always made tea, how could it be poisonous all of a sudden?"

"The village chief was poisoned to the point of death by you, and he is still quibbling! Please arrest him quickly!" Uncle Wang cupped his hands to Pang Yuanying.

The other villagers followed suit, responding to what Uncle Wang said.

Pang Yuanying put on gloves, took out a bag of paper from the cloth bag, sprinkled it on the gloves, and then wiped it on the village head's neck.

"What are you doing, sir?" Uncle Wang asked.

Pang Yuanying: "Treat the disease and let your village chief come back to life."

"I didn't expect you to know medicine." Bai Lishi sighed.

"No." Pang Yuanying stared at Xiong Feng's expressionless face in a coma, and after a while, he saw slight changes in his face, his muscles tensed, and the corners of his mouth were pressed down, obviously showing a forbearing expression.

After waiting for a while, Xiong Feng's face contorted, and finally he couldn't help stretching out his hand to scratch his neck, desperately scratching.

"Are you still pretending to be dizzy?" Pang Yuanying asked.

Everyone was in an uproar, looking in surprise at the village head Xiong Feng who was jumping around and scratching his neck.

"What... what's going on here?" Bailishi asked in surprise.

Friends should ask someone to wipe Xiong Feng's neck with a dry cloth first, and then wipe it with a wet towel dipped in vinegar.

Since Xiong Feng couldn't help opening his eyes and scratching his itch, he really turned into a bear. He didn't know how to face so many people.

"Village Chief, are you pretending to be poisoned?" Bai Lishi covered his mouth in surprise, and couldn't believe what he saw.

"You stole the jade gourd?" Pang Yuanying asked.Pang Yuanying had observed it a long time ago. The house was clean and there was nowhere to hide the jade gourd, so he asked the village chief, "Where is the jade gourd? Where is Yang Xiwang?"

"Give it to Xiwang, let him run as far as he can." Xiong Feng said resignedly with his head down.

"What's the relationship between Yang Xiwang and the village chief?" When Xiong Feng came here, he just introduced Yang Xiwang as a villager.Pang Yuanying is now very suspicious of the relationship between the two. If there is not enough trust between the two of them, the village head cannot take the risk of handing over the jade gourd to him.

"Yang Xiwang is the son-in-law of the village chief, and the village chief has always been very kind to him." Uncle Wang was very anxious, and asked Pang Yuanying to suggest that everyone should go after Yang Xiwang quickly, and not let the treasures in their village be stolen by people with foreign surnames.

"It's up to you to lead people to search, and remember not to kill anyone." Pang Yuanying asked Xiong Feng if he had discussed with Yang Xiwang where to meet.

Xiong Feng remained silent.

"You don't have to pretend, he is willing to let your son-in-law take the gourd away if he takes such a risk and cheats in front of us to get this jade gourd?" Pang Yuanying asked back.

When Uncle Wang and the others heard this, they were so angry that they went forward to beat Xiong Feng.

Pang Yuanying didn't stop him.

Xiong Feng screamed in pain from the beating, and the corner of his mouth was bloody. Fang confessed: "In the sorghum field at the east end of the village."

Uncle Wang and others immediately ran out of the hospital to arrest people.

Pang Yuanqing saw Pang Yuanying and Bai Yutang who were standing still, "Don't we need to follow?"

Pang Yuanying looked at Xiong Feng, who was weak and panting on the bed, and said to Pang Yuanqing, "I don't really believe what he said. You go on horseback first. If there is an accident, remember to warn them not to move around and protect the scene."

Pang Yuanqing nodded.

Xiong Feng glanced at Pang Yuanying when he heard the words, smiled helplessly, and lay powerlessly on the bed. "I'm in this situation. I was caught by the adults, so there's no need to lie."

Pang Yuanying asked Bai Yutang to look at Xiong Feng first, and he went to walk around Liu's house, checking up and down to see if there was a place where jade gourds were hidden.Pang Yuanying carefully checked the wardrobe, under the bed, the bottles and the stove pit one by one, and after confirming that there were none, Pang Yuanying also searched the haystacks in the backyard, even tree branches.

In the end, there was only one well on the beam and in the courtyard that had not been visited.

Pang Yuanying then watched Xiong Feng tie up and asked Bai Yutang to check the beams, while he stood by the side of the wing, staring at the well outside the window in a daze.

Tian Cha finally regained his strength at this moment, and moved to Pang Yuanying's side, saying that he could help to go down the well to check.

"The well water looks quite deep, can you do it?" Pang Yuanying asked.

"Yes, I often go down the well when I put herbal tea, so I can hold my breath better than ordinary people."

Pang Yuanying nodded and told Tian Cha to be careful.

Tian Cha climbed down along the rope for fetching water, while Pang Yuanying tied Xiong Feng and led him to guard by the well.Not long after, Bai Yutang came over and told Pang Yuanying that all the beams in the house were clean and there was nothing there.

Then the two pulled Tian Cha up from the well, and Tian Cha shook his head, indicating that there was nothing in the well.

This was also within Pang Yuanying's expectation. The jade gourd would be considered thrown down the well. In order to avoid breaking it, it must be wrapped with something and then dropped on a stone.When they left, there was nothing near the well.It is basically impossible for Xiong Feng to kill Liu Xiucai's mother and son in a short time, and then find things and ropes to perform such a complicated operation, and then run back to the couch and pretend to be dead.

"Could it be that the jade gourd was really taken away by Yang Xiwang?" Pang Yuanying asked Bai Yutang.

Bai Yutang turned his ear to the east, and said to Pang Yuanying, "There will be an answer soon."

After a while, Pang Yuanying heard footsteps, and saw Bailishi running back with two people with a pale face.

Bailishi held the door with his hand, pointed to the east sorghum field, and told Pang Yuanying that Yang Xiwang had died in the sorghum field.

"How did you die?"

"I didn't... didn't see clearly." Bailishi said in horror.

The middle-aged woman beside Bailishi said: "It's the stomach, someone stabbed the stomach, and the blood flowed all over the ground—"

Pang Yuanying: "Where are Uncle Wang and the others?"

"The jade gourd is not with Yang Xiwang, they are looking for the murderer everywhere."

Pang Yuanying looked back at Xiong Feng, then at Bailishi and the others.

What is the name of Nianzi Village? It is suggested that they change the name to Hengdian.
