Yuan Yu lay quietly on the bed, she didn't want to think about anything, she didn't want to ask anything.Thinking of Wu Yong's death and Sikong Lu's death in his mind.

Wu Yong refused to admit his crime until his death, and left with a clean body.However, Sikong Lu lived innocently, and after his death, he remained infamous for the rest of his life.

This is not the equality and morality that Yuan Xi believes in, nor is it what she expected.

She is indeed a little conceited and proud, admitting that in some cases she just wants to observe the details before taking action, but ignores that the longer the time, the easier it is to go wrong.

Now, whether this case is being investigated or not, Yuan Xi doesn't even know.

Around the time of Chou this morning, Sikong Lu came to the government office alone.

Wearing a brocade handkerchief and a flowered jacket, he dressed himself up as an old woman from the countryside, and came to appeal for grievances with a pleading paper.

Visiting late at night, Yuan Xi knew it was not that simple, so she invited Si Konglu to the study to explain.

Yuan Zhen had seen Sikong Lu's figure before, so she naturally recognized it, and looking at the messy makeup on his face, he knew that Sikong Lu was in a panic.His hands and feet were not as sharp as in the daytime, as if he had aged ten years in an instant.

"Master Sikong, why is this so?" Yuan Xi explained in one sentence.

Naturally, Sikong Lu knew that he couldn't hide it from her, so he sighed, took off the brocade handkerchief, and stood there somewhat restrained.It's like you have something to say, but you don't say it.

"Please sit down first." Yuan Xi asked him to sit down.

Sikong Lu caught a glimpse of the teapot on the table of the Eight Immortals, but Yuan Xi didn't invite him to see the tea.Giving him tea might wash away what he was going to say, so it's better to just look at him like that.Let's see how long he can last.

From the beginning of Chou Shi, until halfway through Chou Shi, neither of them said a word, Si Kong Lu couldn't help but sweat profusely, "That, that, my lord, I want to ask you something."

"But it's okay to say." Yuan Xi immediately returned.

"Can my lord please testify for me, I want to transfer all the property to my eldest brother's daughter, Sikong Sha." When Sikong Lu thought of Sikong Sha, his voice softened.

"Oh? The Sikong family has many heirs, why only give her one?" Yuan Xi was a little curious.

"To tell you the truth, before my father left, he divided the family property among our three brothers. I was too greedy for my share. I saw that the wine shop here was doing well, so I took all the money to build a wine shop. I didn't expect the winery next door to catch fire, and mine was burned! I lost all my money, so I could only live in my elder brother's house. Once I was transporting goods, I was caught by bandits, bandits Ask my elder brother to redeem me, my elder brother took the money, after I was redeemed, a group of officials jumped out, bandits took my elder brother as a hostage to save their lives, my elder brother lost to them and was killed! I did it Big brother! Before he died, my big brother said to me that I must take good care of my sister-in-law and Shasha. I don’t need to give the family wealth to Shasha, but I must make her happy. So I obeyed my elder brother’s words and accepted the family wealth. I am not as smart as my elder brother, so the family fortune is in the I don’t have much development in my hands, and I have been living on my laurels these years. After my sister-in-law died in love, Shasha became an orphan, and I caused Shasha’s family to be ruined. Of course I have the responsibility to protect and take care of her! The money belongs to the elder brother, so naturally it should be kept. For Shasha, even if I am her uncle, what reason do I have to share her property equally?" "You mean to let Sikongsha inherit everything, so aren't you afraid that your children will disobey you? If you get angry, whose fault is it?" I can't even lose face." Yuan Xi said it out.

Sikong Lu seemed to have thought of this, so he nodded, "That's why I ask you to testify for me. This is my will. Please make an exception for me and add your seal. Then this will is true. No one will do anything against Sasha."

Sikong Lu took out a letter from his sleeve and handed it to Yuan Xi.

Yuan Xi reached out to take it, but said, "I can't use the official seal privately, but I will stamp it with my own private seal. You can rest assured that I, Yuan Shi, will guarantee it."

Sikong Lu nodded, Yuan Xi didn't read the content, took his own jade seal, adjusted the date, stamped it on the envelope, and handed it back.

Sikong Lu put the letter by the table and chatted with Yuan Yu, "My lord, what do you think about Jiang Li's death?"

"You are the family member of the suspect. It is inappropriate to discuss this matter with you. Please forgive Yuanxi for being rude." Yuanxi nodded slightly to apologize.

"My lord, why should you be like this? Although your lord is a woman, she obeys the law and abides by the law. Her heart is like a mirror. It is a blessing for the people of Ping An Jing to have a magistrate like this. But my lord, it is of no benefit to anyone to investigate some things deeply. Don't you understand? Is it?"

"Then what does Master Sikong mean? Just find a murderer to deal with? Then, the real murderer is at large?" Yuan Xi snorted coldly.

"Shasha is not the murderer. I thought you were stupid earlier, and I exchanged money for Shasha to get out of prison. But after talking with you, I found out that you have a delicate mind and everything happens for a reason. You let Shasha go because you don't want to take in innocent people. "

"No, I let Sikong Sha go because if Sikong Sha was really locked up by me, he would have been tricked by the murderer. The murderer had enough time to kill Sikong Sha, but he didn't do anything. Instead, he just framed her as the murderer. , the reason may be that the murderer has feelings for Sikong Sha, and he is reluctant to kill her directly. Master Sikong, what do you think." Yuan Xi raised his eyebrows and looked at Sikong Lu.

Sikong Lu's face kept changing color, and finally his face turned blue.

"Actually, you are also wondering if the murder was caused by property, aren't you?" Sikong Lu murmured quietly.

"Since you came here and made your will in advance, it means that you also have doubts, and you are afraid that your family members will suffer, so it is useless to transfer the property directly to Sikongsha's name and tell the murderer to kill anyone."

"It's not..." Sikong Lu was embarrassed for a while, unable to speak.

"If you don't come, I still suspect that it was Sikong Sha's brawl that caused the rogue revenge. If you come, it means telling me that the murderer is a member of Sikong's family." Yuan Xie said bluntly.

"Yes, I know, I know you won't give up if you can't catch the murderer." Sikong Lu nodded.

"No matter what, you can't stop this murder case from leaving a notorious reputation in the government treasury." Yuan Yu couldn't comfort him, and could only tell him the final result.

"I understand." Sikong Lu nodded.

Then she stood up, staggering to leave, Yuan Xi hurriedly stepped forward to help her.

She is not willing to say such a cruel thing to the old man, but that is the truth, how to escape?

She helped Sikong Lu go out, and accompanied him to the door, all the way, Sikong Lu was sighing.It wasn't until the door that Yuan Xi let go of Sikong Lu, and said softly, "I won't send you back, be careful all the way."

As if treating his own child, Sikong Lu patted Yuan Xi's hand with a smile and nodded.

Yuan Yu immediately turned around and left, maybe if she stayed for a while, she would re-evaluate Sikong Mansion because of Sikong Lu's care for the child.Solving a case can be intuitive, but it is impossible to bring in too many personal emotions.would largely impede judgment.

"My lord, I will help you. The Sikong Mansion will definitely find the murderer. At that time, please don't search again, my lord, is that okay?"

When Yuan Yu turned his head, Sikong Lu had already turned around and staggered away.

Sikong Lu's visit tonight made Yuan Yu completely sleepless. She sat on the railing outside the dormitory, looking at the bright moon in the sky, and couldn't help thinking, why did Sikong Lu come to the government office?Is it just to let her be the guarantor?

Human nature and mentality are the most difficult to guess, and even Yuan Yu cannot fully guess what other people think.

She looked at the bright moon, "If human nature is as bright as yours, maybe there won't be so many disputes in this world."

After silently staring blankly for a while, he fell asleep lying on the edge of the railing.

Not long after dawn, the Sikong Mansion sent someone to say that Master Sikong was gone.Yuan Xi was startled, jumped up, and went straight to Sikong Mansion.All the way I was thinking about Sikong Lu's last words, "Sikong's mansion will definitely find the murderer. At that time, please don't search again, is that okay?"

As soon as he arrived at Sikong's mansion, Yuan Yu was stunned. Sikong Lu sat on the chair with a smile on his face, very calm.

Holding the bottle firmly in his hand, he changed into a new dress without wrinkles.There is a pen, ink, paper and inkstone in front of him, and there are eight large characters in the letter: "If you know your mistakes, you can correct them. There is nothing good about it."

Mrs. Zhang has been making arrangements all the time, not allowing others to enter, and suppressing her grief to let the servants prepare everything.

Yuan Xi's head was buzzing, and he walked around the corpse a few times.

There are no clues, but the body is still warm and there are no wrinkles on the body, which means that no one has touched him, and it cannot be homicide.But why did he commit suicide?

Yuan Xi picked up Sikong Lu's stack of rice paper, the first sheet was eight characters.

The second one started, but wrote how he killed Jiang Li.This, isn't this an admission that he is the murderer?

These were left to her by Sikong Lu, so Yuan Xi folded the last few sheets, and the last few were written to her family.Yuan Xi took a rough look, and said that all property should be transferred to Sikong Sha, and Zhang Shi asked her to lead the children back to the old residence if Sikong Sha was unwilling to support them.He also left a few words to Sikong Shou, with the intention of making him change his ways and stop being nostalgic for the place of fireworks.Basically arrange the funeral.

Seeing Sikong Lu's smile, Yuan Xi squatted down, looked at him, and said softly, "Your move is wonderful! Save the whole family with your own reputation. Suicide in fear of crime, you are also a good mover!"

Sikong Lu's smile was to tell Yuan Xi that the affairs of the Sikong family were over, the rest of the Sikong family were innocent, and he had borne all the sins, laughing for the future peace of the Sikong mansion.

Yuan Yu didn't know what to say, even if the murderer was someone else, but Sikong Lu took the blame for his children, and already had one life to pay Jiang Li, so why should he continue to investigate and use his life to restore the truth? ?

And Sikong Lu left eight big characters, perhaps to tell his children that as long as they are corrected, everything will be fine.

It's really not worth it if you make only one mistake and ruin all your youth.

Maybe Sikong Lu just looked at these young children, and was reluctant to let them go to hell before seeing all the prosperity in the world.

Yuan Xi thought a lot, and her complexion gradually turned pale.

She really didn't know if she should continue the investigation.Master Sikong declared himself the murderer with such a decisive attitude, just to end this dispute.

It would be a waste of all his painstaking efforts if he checked again.

Facing this unsettled case, which can be regarded as dusty, all Yuan Xi can do is to be in a daze!
