Sir, I can do it!

Lu Zhan was sentenced to be beheaded and his family property confiscated. Those who participated in it were executed or exiled according to the crime, and the family members were not as bad as the disaster.

Just when everyone thought that the case was settled, Si Jing, a servant of Lu Chengqian, the eldest son of the Lu family, surrendered himself in the Yamen, claiming that the person who killed the Lu family's nursing home in Xiaoxishan a month ago was not Wei Shizi.

As for who it was, Si Jing said that those people pretended to be Wei Shizi's soldiers, intending to frame him.He knew that Wei Shizi was upright, and he couldn't bear Wei Shizi being framed for nothing, so he went to Xiaoxishan privately to find evidence.Finally, the hard work paid off. After a heavy rain, a token was washed out by the rain.

Someone recognized that it was the Plum Blossom Order of Nanliang's secret organization.

Reminiscent of the many subtleties involved in the Lu Zhan case, everyone suddenly realized that this is the son of Wei who has been tricked.As a result, everyone who was attracted by the Lu Zhan case suddenly thought that Wei Shizi seemed to be still involved in the Fan Lou case.

Just as everyone was waiting with great interest for the third son of Wei to turn the tide again and clear up the grievances of Wei Shizi, Uncle Zhou went to the Ministry of Criminal Justice to withdraw the lawsuit.Said that Wei Shizi was wronged, and the murderer who killed Miss Wednesday has been found, but for the sake of Miss Wednesday's innocence, the case will not be heard in court.Relevant evidence will be submitted to the Ministry of Criminal Justice for archiving after sorting out.

Interested people think about the relationship between the Zhou family and the Wei family, thinking that the two have negotiated the terms in private, and plan to keep this matter private.Otherwise, with Third Young Master Wei's defensive nature, he would justly avenge eldest brother's grievance no matter what.How can it be so vague and speculative.

Everyone wanted to inquire, so they mobilized the power of the officials and family members of the government to inquire about relatives, guests, and even servants related to the Zhou family.But Uncle Zhou gave the order to die, and there was no useful news to release, which made the gossip-loving people in Shengjing scratch their heads.After Uncle Zhou ruthlessly expelled a branch of the Zhou family from the clan, the enthusiasm just faded away like a tide.

Uncle Zhou sneered: "If you want to see my Zhou family's jokes, you have to pay the price."

Wei Zhao and Changsun Ke were invited to go under the extremely repressed atmosphere of the Zhou family.

Although Mrs. Zhou loves Zhou Yan very much, she thinks that her granddaughter is good in everything.But the more you do this, the easier it is to blind your eyes.Therefore, the person who knows Zhou Yan best is Mrs. Zhou.Of course she also loves her daughter, but as a mother, she has the responsibility to teach, so she will naturally pay attention to her daughter's shortcomings.

After the trial of the Lu Zhan case was over, Wei Zhao approached Uncle Zhou and his wife and handed over the jade bracelet found in the cell where Zhou Yan was imprisoned in the underground secret room to Mrs. Zhou.He also explained Zhou Yan's disappearance and the general speculation about the Fan Lou case.Uncle Zhou naturally didn't believe it, but Mrs. Zhou already believed it seven or eight times.

Zhou Yan is innocent, at least on the surface.But those who are interested can understand that Zhou Yan's innocence made life very difficult for the other princes and ladies of the Zhou mansion.Even Mrs. Zhou herself was scolded by Mrs. Zhou for this.

It was also after that time that Mrs. Zhou began to re-examine her daughter.A daughter who will use innocence as a sharp weapon to hurt others.If she knew that there would be such a day, Mrs. Zhou would definitely not give her daughter to her mother-in-law to raise her. The mother-in-law's extreme doting on her daughter has already unknowingly raised her astray.But the daughter herself didn't know it at all.By the time Mrs. Zhou wanted to correct her daughter's temperament, it was already too late.

Uncle Zhou was silent for a long time, before he opened his mouth with difficulty: "The Zhou family is willing to withdraw the lawsuit and return Prince Wei's innocence, but Lord Wei, please come to the Zhou residence, we need the truth."

Although a private settlement would make people think that Wei Xuan's escape from the charges was due to the relationship between the two governments, but if the case were to be tried publicly, Zhou Yan's reputation would be ruined, and Mrs. Zhou would not let it go.And deal with it privately to ensure the reputation of the Zhou Mansion. Thinking of this, Uncle Zhou will still stand on the side of Zhen Guohou in the court.After weighing it, Wei Xuan agreed with Uncle Zhou to solve it in private.

So Wei Zhao came to visit after Lu Zhan's case, and invited Princess Fuxi as a middleman.

The main courtyard of the Zhou Mansion was cleaned inside and out by Mrs. Zhou, and people were guarded around the main courtyard to ensure that not a single fly could be let in.

Wei Zhao curled his lips, a little disdainful.In my impression, Mrs. Zhou was kind to him, but my grandmother said that Mrs. Zhou had a stubborn temper, and the older she got, the more paranoid she became.That seems to be the case now.No wonder my grandmother has always refused to marry the Zhou family.

Wei Xuan was imprisoned in Nanfu for nearly a month. Although she was much thinner, she was much calmer.His eyes are resolute and firm, with a certain momentum of his own.Princess Fuxi admired it quite a lot, and felt somewhat dissatisfied with the Zhou family's move.

Fan Lou's second shopkeeper and all the staff were invited to the Zhou Mansion as witnesses, standing in a row nervously.On the opposite side were Lin Zhan, Cheng Shixun, and Lu Da, standing frankly behind Wei Xuan, with a great reputation.

Seeing that both parties are already in place, Elder Princess Fuxi cleared her throat and said: "I have heard a lot about the Fanlou case, today I am honored to be invited by Lord Wei to witness this case, I must uphold the principle of fairness, Record the facts of the case, be impartial. Catch the real culprit, comfort the heart of the dead, and honor the name of the wronged.”

After speaking, he looked at Wei Zhao: "Master Wei, please start."

Wei Zhao got up and walked to the middle of the main room, Mrs. Zhou was leaning on the soft bed, her expression dispirited.Although he doesn't like Mrs. Zhou's dominance, but after all, she is an old man who lost her granddaughter, and the previous anger has dissipated a lot.

He straightened out his thoughts and said, "The victim in the Lu Zhan case can prove that Zhou Yan was detained in the underground secret room of Wangyue Building and was taken away three days later. Three days later, on June 22, Zhou Yan suddenly appeared in Xi'an Water Street."

"It is said that Zhou Yan was kidnapped. If she had a chance to escape, she would definitely return to the Zhou Mansion. But she deliberately showed up on Xishui Street and then went to Fanlou. This behavior is arousing suspicion."

Uncle Zhou was silent.Mrs. Zhou's face showed concern, but she didn't say anything to argue.

Wei Zhao looked at the second shopkeeper, and said, "Fanlou is the number one restaurant in the east of the city, and there are a lot of customers every day. The private rooms on the east side are in a good location, so they are often reserved in advance."

The second shopkeeper nodded and said yes.

Lin Zhan also said: "Brothers often eat in Fan Lou, and always reserve a room in East Six. That day, I also sent a young man to Fan Lou to say something."

The second shopkeeper bowed his head and said, "Mr. Lin is a regular customer, so when he saw Mr. Lin's servant coming, he knew that he would stay in East No. [-] room without asking."

"So Wang Liu spent a lot of money to force Dong Wu to stay?" Wei Zhao changed the subject and looked straight at Wang Liu.

Wang Liu fought back and forth, swallowed his saliva, and hurriedly said, "Dong Wu is, there is a reservation, and the villain just left the private room as usual."

Wei Zhao snorted coldly, "Come on, Zhou Qi."

Zhou Qi and Wang Liu were both handymen in the east house. On the day of the incident, Zhou Qi had a bad stomach and asked for leave to go home.

Zhou Qi stepped forward under the pressure, and said in a trembling voice: "Shortly after starting work in the morning on 22, the villain felt a pain in his stomach, so he had to ask the second shopkeeper for leave. At that time, the pain was so bad that he hurried to the doctor. My mother-in-law boiled the medicine, and fell into a drowsy sleep. When I woke up, I suddenly remembered that I forgot to tell Wang Liu that the Dongwu private room had been reserved. It was a squire from Xia County, and a family of three came to Shengjing City for fun. .”

"But it was already dark at that time. I think Wang Liuyi is always smart, and the restaurant has deposits reserved by customers, so there will be no mistakes. But I didn't expect to hear about the murder case in Fanlou early the next morning. Dongwu, during lunch time, Wei Shizi killed Miss Zhou's third lady. The villain's head went crazy at that time, his hands and feet went weak, and he was inexplicably afraid. He didn't dare to go to work, so he asked my wife to continue to ask for leave with the second shopkeeper. After a few days Days, it seems to have stopped, and the villain dared to go to work in the restaurant. No one dared to mention it, and the villain dared not inquire."

"Xia County is not far from Shengjing City, and you can go back and forth in one day on a fast horse. I sent people to Xia County to find the squire's family. They can testify that a boy in the restaurant paid him twice the price that day, and asked him to let him go. Get out of the East Five Private Room." Wei Zhao sneered, "Wang Liu, do you want to ask someone to confront you in person?"

Lin Zhan jumped out and reprimanded: "You are an accomplice!"

Wang Liu bit his head and said: "How can a villain have the guts? The villain also does things for others. The East Bakery has always been popular. Usually, there are people who spend a lot of money to ask people to give up the private room. Get some rewards."

The second shopkeeper wiped off his sweat and hurriedly said: "That's true. As long as both parties are willing, the restaurant will not interfere. But if one party is unhappy and causes trouble for the restaurant, the handyman will have to bear the consequences."

"So who told you to give up Dongwu that day?"

Wang Liudao: "I don't know the villain well, I only know that the man's surname is Yu, yes, he is a merchant from the south."

Uncle Zhou frowned: "My daughter seldom goes out, where can I meet a businessman named Yu?"

Wei Zhao said with a smile: "I didn't know each other before, but it doesn't mean I don't know each other now. Don't forget that Zhou Yan disappeared on June 22th and was taken out of the underground secret room of Wangyue Tower on June [-]th. Zhou Yan's whereabouts were still unknown for three days before, and the one who killed Zhou Yan was the person she saw during these three days."

Mrs. Zhou shouted: "It's nonsense. My Yan'er was killed in Fan Lou, and he was the real culprit." She pointed at Wei Xuan angrily, her eyes bloodshot.

Wei Xuan had no expression on his face and ignored it.

Lin Zhan was a little displeased: "Brother Wei agreed to try the case privately for the sake of friendship between the two families. If Mrs. Zhou continues to be so aggressive without mentioning evidence, I think we should meet in court. It will also save Wei Big brother is wronged."

Wei Xuan glared at Lin Zhan: "Don't say a few words."

Mrs. Zhou was also a little unhappy. Her daughter was raised by the old lady. No matter what her daughter did, the old lady would support her indiscriminately.Little did they know that the people outside were sinister, and they really thought that Zhou Mansion was everywhere, allowing her to remain lawless and innocent.

She ignored Mrs. Zhou and followed Wei Zhao's words and asked, "I wonder if we can find that person?"

Wei Zhao raised his eyebrows: "The people Zhou Yan saw in those three days were actually the people who appeared in the private room."

Uncle Zhou said in surprise, "A merchant surnamed Yu?"

Wei Xuan still couldn't figure out what was going on in the private room, he was still puzzled: "How many people are there in the private room?"

Wei Zhao's eyes turned cold: "From the beginning to the end, there were only two people, including Zhou Yan."
