"My son has already been put into the coffin, opening the coffin will only disturb my son's rest." Mrs. Yue said stiffly.

Zhong Weiyuan laughed and said: "Since Mr. Gu said that there is Yue Ziran's ghost in the coffin, Mrs. Yue might as well let me take a look. If not, then let me punish Gu Qi for a crime of deception. If so, Yue Fu Wouldn't it be possible for a person to have a good talk with his son and let Yue Ziran tell you the truth of that day."

Madam Yue bit her lower lip lightly: "Ran'er is gone, and the murderer has committed suicide. I don't want to know the truth. Even if I know the truth, can I get my son's life back?"

"Mrs. Yue." Gu Qi stood up, staring straight at Mrs. Yue's face, "You have repeatedly declined, could it be that there is something invisible in the coffin in the hall?"

"You're talking nonsense." Madam Yue turned even paler, her hands unconsciously clutching the handkerchief tightly.

"In that case, let's open the coffin." Zhong Weiyuan ordered without any explanation.

Zhong Weiyuan came faster than Gu Qi expected, but at the same time he only brought two people with him. These two people were not wearing the clothes of government servants, but were dressed in short jackets. They were obviously people he brought from the capital to protect him.

At this time, Zhong Weiyuan gave the order, and naturally these two people carried it out. After all, the guards have not yet arrived, and these two people followed Zhong Weiyuan, and a group of eight came to the hall.

The hall returned to the appearance when Gu Qigang came in. Several servants knelt on the futon and burned paper money in the basin. Seeing Zhong Weiyuan, they all hurriedly bowed down to salute.

Mrs. Yue was supported by the old woman beside her. Although she couldn't see all of this, this place was her home. Even if she couldn't see it, she could imagine it. Everyone must be staring at the coffin.

Not reconciled in his heart, but helpless, he could only sigh: "If that's the case, then let's go."

With a wave of Zhong Weiyuan's hand, the two attendants came out from behind him, stood around the coffin one after the other, put both hands on the top of the coffin cover, and with a little force, they gave Dali the heavy coffin cover. Open!

It turned out that although the coffin was placed here, it was not nailed to seal the building, so the two of them lifted the lid of the coffin so easily.

With a bang, the coffin lid fell to the ground, revealing everything inside the coffin.

Gu Qi's eyes flashed, and he saw that the inner thoughts were indeed so.

Inside the coffin, a man looked pale and looked at everyone in panic.

"Yue Ziran?" Zhong Weiyuan fixed his eyes and asked in surprise, "You're not dead?"

"I...I'm already dead! I'm a ghost...a ghost!" The man looked flustered, but hurriedly found an excuse for himself.

Hearing this, Zhong Weiyuan was taken aback for a moment, but laughed again, and looked back at Gu Qidao: "Young Master Gu is really clever."

Gu Qi said indifferently: "Master Zhong, I appreciate it."

Seeing this, Yue Ziran in the coffin gritted his teeth and turned over, wanting to crawl out of the coffin and escape, but was subdued by Zhong Weiyuan's two attendants at the front and back of the coffin, who stretched out their hands and pressed them to the ground.

Hui Qi still looked blank, but Xu Yihua's eyes became brighter and brighter, and he had already solved all the truth in his heart, but then, he glanced at Zhong Weiyuan vigilantly, and moved towards Gu Qi's side calmly took a step.

"I felt a little strange when I came here this morning, but I didn't know what was so strange at that time." Gu Qi looked at Yue Ziran who was kneeling on the ground and said, "Until just now, I came to the hall again I realized something was wrong when I saw the hall. There was only the smell of paper money and incense sticks in the hall, but there was no rotten and sour smell. When we found the body yesterday, the body had been decomposed in many places, and the corpse smell was strong. Logically speaking, Even if the coffin is sealed, the smell will waft out. There is no smell of corpse in this coffin, which only means that there is no corpse we found yesterday!"

Madam Yue bit her lip and said nothing.

"So you deduce from this that Yue Ziran is not dead, and is still hiding in this coffin?" Zhong Weiyuan asked.

Gu Qi shook his head: "That's not the case. I didn't think of this at the time. It was later that Mrs. Yue reminded me."

"I... remind you?" Mrs. Yue didn't understand, she was careful and carefully planned everything, just to cover up the truth of the matter, why could she still remind Gu Qi?

"That's right." The corner of Gu Qi's mouth twitched into a smile, "If Madam Yue hadn't called all the people in the hall to the East Wing to look for things, I wouldn't have thought of this."

Madam Yue was taken aback.

That Yue Ziran also raised his head in a daze, looking at Gu Qi.

"At that time we met Yue Ziran's ghost in the back hall, and asked Liansheng for his life, and then Liansheng committed suicide in his room. Naturally, there are no ghosts in this world, so this incident is a man-made one. , Mrs. Yue must be trying to get herself out of it, so on the one hand, she asked all the servants to make an alibi for you, so that you can get away, and on the other hand, she asked all the people in the hall to let you go. Yue Ziran came to be a person who pretends to be a ghost." Gu Qi asked, "Mrs. Yue, am I right?"

Madam Yue squeezed her hands tightly together, gritted her teeth and turned her head to the side without making a sound.

"Even the gauze on your face is just a blindfold." Gu Qi said, stretched out his right hand, and tore off the gauze on Madam Yue's face with a swipe. Panicked and wanted to close.

"You're talking nonsense!" Yue Ziran yelled, "I'm not dead, but did I break the law if I didn't die! I'm in a coffin, what kind of king's law would I like to sleep in!"

"It's a good thing you didn't die." Gu Qi stared at him, "But you shouldn't pretend to be a ghost and let Liansheng pay for his life, causing him to commit suicide!"

Having said that, Xu Yihua who was beside him turned around and told Zhong Weiyuan what happened in the back hall before.

"What evidence do you have!" Yue Ziran sneered, "You said I pretended to be a ghost to scare people, did you see it with your own eyes?"

"Of course I have evidence."

Yue Ziran was taken aback for a moment, and Madam Yanyue also turned around in surprise.

Xu Yihua pondered for a moment before remembering, and suddenly heard Huiqi's voice next to his ear: "What evidence?"

Gu Qi took out a piece of clothes and a long thin rope from his arms, and presented them in front of everyone.

The clothes corner was naturally found at the corner of the corridor in the back hall, and the long rope was found by Xu Yihua at the east end of the corridor: "This is the evidence."

Yue Ziran originally had a sneer on his face, but his eyes were fixed on the corner of the clothes, his face became more and more unwell, and soon became pale.

"Why?" Gu Qi asked with a smile, "Does this piece of clothes look familiar?"

Cold sweat came out of Yue Ziran's forehead, and his right hand moved unconsciously, trying to cover his clothes.

"Oh? It turns out that the hem of your clothes is also torn." The smile on Gu Qi's face deepened, "What a coincidence."

Having said this, Zhong Weiyuan already understood, he stared at the corner of Yue Ziran's clothes, then at the corner of the clothes and the rope in Gu Qi's hand, and suddenly said: "It turns out that you pretended to be a ghost and asked Liansheng to commit suicide. died."

"I-I didn't..."

That Yue Ziran still wanted to quibble, but Gu Qi said directly: "It seems that if I don't say it, you don't give up. After Mrs. Yue let us go to the back hall, she led Liansheng there, and then lied about her hairpin The coffin disappeared, and all the servants in the front hall were called to the east chamber. At this time, you who were hidden in the coffin sneaked out, used the tools prepared in advance, tied the clothes with ropes, and then passed through the coffin that had been in the coffin for a long time. Nailed to the rope on the tower, and then you use the clothes that can slide on the rope to create phantoms to pretend to be gods and ghosts. In addition, Liansheng is very familiar with your voice. He thinks you are dead. When you speak, he will naturally It was terribly frightening, and it made us think that ghosts really came to seek revenge. Afterwards, as long as you throw away the clothes and rope, you are still hiding in the coffin, and no one will be able to discover your existence."

"But you didn't expect that in the panic, your clothes would hang on the corridor, and a piece of your clothes would be torn off."

At this point, Yue Ziran's face was ashen, revealing a look of despair.

In fact, Gu Qi and Xu Yihua only found the rope, but not the clothes used to pretend to be the phantom. However, if the yamen servants arrive, they can easily find them by searching around the back hall.

Gu Qi turned his head and looked at Madam Yue: "Madam Yue, am I right?"

Madam Yue remained silent.

"If it wasn't for my fate, then Liansheng would have killed me long ago! Now I'm just looking for revenge, besides, he also committed suicide, so why am I guilty!" Yue Ziran gritted his teeth.

"It's good for Liansheng to kill you, but you are not dead, you are still alive, why didn't you report to the government, you could have reported to the government, let the government decide for you, and punish Liansheng's crime, but you didn't do it because you were afraid! A sharp light flashed in Gu Qi's eyes, "Because you are afraid that the government will find out what you did before!"

"What did you do before?" Huiqi didn't understand.

"Before I was very puzzled, why did you find such a remote place to rest, and then I inquired about some things and realized that you want to satisfy your desires in that place!"

"Don't say it!" Madam Yue suddenly screamed and interrupted Gu Qi's words.

"Go on." Zhong Weiyuan said in a deep voice.

Gu Qi didn't intend to stop at first, and after scolding Zhong Weiyuan in his heart, he opened his mouth and said: "You always want to fight with your brother, and you have to do what he does. He is very good at Long Yang. One day you found out that he and Lian Sheng had a crush on each other, so you were going to use this matter to humiliate him. When you came back from Jiangcheng, Lian Sheng wanted to see Yue Ziyun, but you made an excuse Tell him that you deceived him to the place where the boulder was, wanting to fulfill his animal desires, Liansheng smashed your head when he picked it up from the ground while struggling, but it didn't knock you out, but made you angry. After many blows, you finally passed out, but Liansheng thought he had crushed you to death, so he could only go to Yue Ziyun. In a panic, neither of them went to check whether you were dead, and Yue Ziyun was even more concerned about your death. To protect Liansheng, he decided to take on this matter. He left all kinds of clues to point all the doubts to him, so that Liansheng escaped. Who knew that you were not dead at all. After waking up, you crawled out of the soil, I have even thought up a plan in my mind, and I am going to use this to get rid of the thorn in your side!"

Yue Ziran looked at Gu Qi in shock, cold sweat dripping down his face.

If there were not only three people on the spot, Yue Ziran would really think that Gu Qi was standing aside when the incident happened, because what he said was exactly the same as what happened at that time.

"So, you found your wife, Mrs. Niangyue, and the two of you discussed the plan together, replacing you with someone else's corpse. In fact, whether the three of us are there or not that day, it will not affect your plan. It's a pity that you You are too confident in this plan, and you actually want to use us as a proof, this is your biggest mistake."

Hui Qi silently despised Gu Qi.

"Who told him to rob my property!" Yue Ziran had a vicious expression on his face, "A man with a foreign surname who doesn't even have the blood of my Yue family in his body, why would he want to rob me of my property!"

Gu Qi didn't speak, Yue Ziran laughed again and said: "I didn't kill the person, that bitch committed suicide by himself, how can you catch me, I'm not a murderer, hahahaha, what can you do to me?"
