Help!Master Chief Assistant's Jiaojiao is a black widow

Chapter 8 Doubt
Hua Rujin buried her head and looked at the kneeling old butler thoughtfully, and said in a deep voice: "Just now you said that after the second son left, the third son appeared in the mansion again, and you scared Yuanwai?"

"Indeed, many people in the house have seen it."

The old butler replied while wiping away his tears: "This old slave dare not lie to the young lady. You also know that the master has always been kind and kind. At the beginning, the old master took pity on the young lady and violated the son's last wish and kept the young lady in the house. If it wasn't for the young lady This time he made a fuss about going out of the house and made the house restless, so he won't be so hard-hearted."

"You have a kind face and a kind heart. You are so hard to force each other. Aren't you afraid that I will turn into a ghost and demand your life in the future?"

Hua Rujin's phoenix eyes sank slightly, and she glanced at the kneeling servants of Dou's mansion: "I think you must have killed your own son and made him hard to avenge, so you turned into ghosts to scare you, right?"

Hearing these words, the righteousness on the faces of the servants suddenly disappeared, and they all lowered their heads in guilt, not daring to speak again, for fear that she would remember their own faces.

The house is not clean yet, if this young lady turns into a ghost again, it will be fine to settle the old score on her own head.

"Third young lady, don't speculate on your own."

Gu Langxi looked at Hua Rujin calmly, and said with a sneer, "Sacrificing oneself for one's husband is a tradition that has existed in my dynasty since the establishment of the dynasty. Marrying from one's father and following one's husband at home is a virtue and etiquette that has not changed for thousands of years. The third young lady Since she married into Dou's family and has no heirs, she should follow her husband's order and die for her husband, which is only right and proper."

"Excuse me, may I ask Mr. Gu to make his father live a long life?"

Hua Rujin Liu frowned slightly, and asked unhurriedly.

Gu Langxi hesitated for a while: "My father passed away for many years, leaving only my mother as a widow, and now she is almost sixty years old."

"Since Mr. Gu is so knowledgeable and reasonable, he is even more familiar with my court etiquette. If you say something disrespectful, Mr. Gu didn't persuade Lingtang to die for your father to gain a good name for your family. Why did you come to embarrass me? Weak woman of the age?"

"you"

Gu Langxi was so angry that he secretly clenched his fists, and belatedly realized that this woman had been tricked.

Hua Rujin frowned and sighed lightly: "The third son of the Dou family and I are not husband and wife, and even the status of husband and wife was forcibly withheld. Let's say that I am honest and responsible, and I dare not fight against the government. I am submissive, but the Dou family treats the feudal women appointed by the government like this, I ask Mr. Gu, if it were you, would you be willing to be unjustly killed in a daze? Don't honest people who keep their duty deserve to live?"

Hu Nanxi and Dou Yuancheng were listening to it, and their faces felt hot for a while.

Just about to be named.

Cai Baiwei was overwhelmed by her daughter's words, and regardless of Hua Junnian's obstruction and her mother-in-law's eyes, she went straight forward and knelt down in front of the officials, begging with all her might:
"My lords are also invited to be the masters of my little girl. Back then, the third son of the Dou family died of illness for no reason. The Dou family insisted that the little girl killed the third son and left the little girl as her husband to keep the chastity. The slave family also recognized it, but Erlang of his family has the same temperament today. Now that I have seen it, it’s not that the little girl is unfaithful.”

"This"

Lu Xiuyuan, the official historian, looked embarrassed.

Three years ago, when he first came to Jiangling City, he had heard about the Dou family's affairs. It was really strange that a well-behaved living person suddenly died suddenly.

However, the autopsy results showed no abnormalities, neither traces of homicide nor evidence of poisoning. There was really no clue, so we could only conclude that he died of a sudden illness.

Now that the Shu family came out to intervene in this matter, the Erlang of the Dou family did have a lack of virtue, and the new county magistrate Ye Chengwei was not easy to deal with. Opened the mouth and said:

"The second son of the Dou family is really guilty this time. There is such an unbearable villain in the family. I have really wronged Miss Hua. I don't think it is worse than this. Since the members of Dou are upright and strict, I will take the second son of the Dou family back to the county government. It's official, as for Miss Hua's family, now that the family style is upright, you can safely go back to Dou's house to observe festivals for your husband."

Without waiting for everyone's reaction, Hu Nanxi nodded and took the words: "That's fine."

She only has money in her eyes, and the life and death of her granddaughter is no longer important.

The current result not only punishes Dou Yuancheng, but also preserves the Hua family's reputation, which is killing two birds with one stone.

Unexpectedly, as soon as her words fell, Gu Langxi looked at her with sharp eyes, and almost refused every word: "No-yes-yes."

Then he took a few pages of rolled up paper from someone else's hand, and respectfully handed it to Lu Xiuyuan's hand to signal:
"Here are the marriage contracts of the two families, the suicide note of the third son of the Dou family, and a few handwritings during his lifetime. I would like to ask Mr. Dian Shi to have a look. Now it is not that Dou Yuanwai is unwilling to make concessions, but that it is about the last wishes of the deceased. If you do not bury the person, it will be difficult May the dead rest in peace."

After the words fell, he looked dazzled like a brocade: "Mr. Dou is not a messy person. The second son disrespected the young lady and he also brought him to justice. The young lady should follow the law and obey the will of the dead husband." .”

"How to prove that this suicide note was written by the third son of the Dou family?"

Seeing Lu Xiuyuan's meticulous inspection of several pieces of handwriting, Hua Rujin had an idea, and shook her head in disdain: "It's not uncommon for Mr. Gu to walk around the Yamen for many years, isn't it?"

As soon as this remark came out, it immediately attracted questions from the lawyers:

"Yes, what Miss Hua said is very reasonable. If it really is the third son's death, why didn't Mr. Dou choose to make it public three years ago, so as to warm the hearts of the Hua family and gain some virtuous reputation, but he It was only brought out at this juncture, do you have ulterior motives?"

"I have no shortage of capable people in Jiangling City who can imitate human handwriting and achieve the effect of making fake ones. I heard that Mr. Gu is very good at copying other people's handwriting. Could it be that Mr. Gu deliberately compiled this suicide note for others in order to please Mr. Dou?"

"It's just nonsense."

Hearing the doubts around him, Gu Langxi got angry from it, and quickly explained: "The suicide note was naturally written by the third son himself. The reason Dou Yuanwai didn't choose to make it public in those years was just to prevent the young lady and the Hua family from worrying."

"That makes no sense."

Hua Rujin saw that his expression was starting to fluster, and she strengthened her thoughts:

There must be something strange behind this incident.

"Back when I was married to the third son, he didn't go to the mansion to worship and get married, but secretly hid and wrote a suicide note. What's the reason for this? May I ask you all, when did you think of leaving a suicide note?"

As soon as the words fell, someone rushed to answer: "Of course it was when I learned that my life was not long."

"But the third son of the Dou family was only sixteen or seventeen years old when he married me. He was not yet at the age of a weak crown. He was at the age of high spirits. Why would he want to write a suicide note?"

Hua Rujin's eyes were as frosty as frost, and she quietly looked at Gu Langxi: "Unless he knew that his life was not long."

In the face of everyone's doubts, Gu Langxi's expression moved slightly, but he returned to normal in an instant, maintaining an unruffled momentum in the face of danger.

And Lu Xiuyuan already sensed some suspicion from Hua Rujin's words that he didn't have before, and thoughtfully handed the suicide note and a few pieces of handwriting to her slowly.

Hua Rujin took the suicide note and inspected it carefully, and explained while comparing with other handwritings: "The handwriting on the paper is indeed some years old, and there is no trace of tampering. It doesn't seem like it was made up recently."

After reading it several times, she immediately found something tricky: "But one thing, the third son died of a sudden illness. This suicide note is written vigorously and vigorously, and it is full of majestic momentum. It is not like a dying person. If Mr. Gu insists on agreeing that this suicide note was written by my late husband himself, then there is only one possibility, that is, he already knew that he would die soon, so it would be a fraudulent marriage."

Although it was just suspicion, the meticulous deduction logic once again caused a sensation among the crowd:
"Cheating a marriage is a serious crime."

"Miss Hua, even though you are eloquent, your family did take money from members of the Dou family back then."

Gu Langxi pretended to be calm and took back the marriage certificate from Lu Xiuyuan and held it in his hand: "There are two marriage contracts as proof."

He seemed calm, but his heart gradually became chaotic.

I have been in the litigator industry for many years, but this is the first time I have seen such an eloquent person, and she is still a little-known woman.

Fortunately, she was only suspicious, and she couldn't produce any real evidence, which was not enough to confront her in court.
