Rank One Princess Douxian Wang: Phoenix Palace Brocade

Chapter 264
It didn't take a few strokes, Lan Ying couldn't stop howling, the yamen servant was so sophisticated, and it didn't take a few strokes until she could only make some whining noises.

After the execution was over, Lan Ying sat slumped on the ground, tilted her head, and spat out her two back teeth with a mouthful of blood.

"The government has listened to your respective confessions, and the two of you must come forward to make a conclusion about this matter." Looking at the neat stack of testimony on the case, Mr. Wang felt quite a headache.

For ordinary cases, when you come to the Yamen to hand over the pleadings, you always have to investigate and delay some time.But this time was different, a bunch of evidence was sent in one after another five days ago.After some inspections, it was impeccable, and Wu Zuo and the government servants also went to the pond where the incident happened and the Zhuangzi where the fire broke out to check, and they were also confirmed.

What's more, when Dai Lin came, he actually invited Lizheng from the village to which the Zhuangzi belonged to testify that the Zhuangzi was still the property of the Xu family.In addition, everyone except Lan Ying testified that this matter was related to the Lin family. Xu Jiatong did not say it clearly, but he did not deny it. I am afraid that this matter is likely to be true.

In particular, the people in Dai's mansion, from top to bottom, never do anything they are not sure about.They will come and come to this point, that is, they are fully sure.

"Come on, let's go to Ding'anhou's mansion again, and invite Ding'anhou and his wife over here, so as not to attract attention." Mr. Wang still has some scruples, so to say that if you come in by a sedan chair through the side door, people outside will not be able to see the clue .

"Miss Xu Fourth, please step forward and speak." Mrs. Wang said with a smile.

Walking past Lan Ying without stopping, Xu Jiatong stood still in front of the case, leaned forward slightly and said, "My lord, please tell me, this matter involves not only me, but also those servants. Although they are servants , but they are all raised by mothers and parents, so you can check as you like."

"You mean, even if your father and Lingtang are involved?" Mr. Wang tentatively.

Marquis Ding'an is just a rich man, but Xu Jiatong is in line with the Dai mansion. He was rewarded and valued by Zhao Yu and Queen Wu before, and he has a close relationship with the daughter of the Ma family and the future Princess Xiang. On the contrary, I want to see her attitude.

"My lord Wang misunderstood. This matter may not be related to them. Everything is said by these servants. Even I heard it from Zhao's mother. You need to find out exactly what happened." Xu Jiatong smiled lightly.

"But the Zhuangzi where the incident happened is also in the Ding'anhou's residence. Lizheng also said that Zhuangzi was bought by Mrs. Ding'anhou, and two servants who are closely related to her were involved. If this matter has nothing to do with her, I'm afraid No way." Lord Wang smiled, with majesty hidden in his kindness.

"Although the Marquis of Ding'an's Mansion is not considered wealthy in the western capital, it has many properties. Even the head of the family cannot keep an eye on it. The outcome of this matter depends entirely on the wise and wise decision of the adults." Xu Jiatong blessed her body and retreated.

OK, toss him the hot potato.Mr. Wang was stunned for a moment, but the next moment his smile widened a lot. How could he be stopped, a mere Xu Xiaozu, where a man could live with him, even if it was Du Xiang, the result might not be the same.

After Lord Wang drank two cups of tea, Xu Xiaozu and Mrs. Lin arrived, and Xu Xiaozu said, "Master Wang, I haven't seen you for a while, I didn't expect to meet in this yamen."

"Master Hou, ma'am, I'm sorry for the disappointment of our house." Mr. Wang stood up and bowed his hands politely, then sat down with a solemn expression, "But this is a yamen, not a private house of this house. Yes. Marquis Ding'an is an official, come here to show Mrs. Hou Ye a seat."

"I'm sorry." Xu Xiaozu smiled, hiding the stiffness on his face.

Lin's face was dignified and peaceful, she looked at Lan Ying with puzzled eyes, and pretended to be surprised: "Lan Ying, why are you here? Didn't I ask you to go to Juexiao Temple to pick up the fourth girl?" Looking over at Mr. Wang, "Master Wang, this girl disappeared three days ago, why is she here?"

"Master, show Hou Ye and Madam what you wrote down." Lord Wang's gaze was like a sword, and he suddenly looked back at Lin Shi, who trembled slightly.

Old and hot as Mr. Wang, how can he not understand why Lin's trembling?But judging from this posture, I am afraid that this time, there will be insufficient evidence, and those innocent servants who lost their lives will be unjustly killed.

"This... this..., I really don't know, Mother Zhao, you said I ordered you, why?" Lin stood up angrily, patted her heart and said loudly, "It is said that it is difficult to be a stepmother, if the fourth girl When something happened, I was the first one outsiders suspected, how could I be so stupid? Marquis, do you also doubt my concubine's identity?"

"Don't be in a hurry." Xu Xiaozu looked at Zhao Ma, whose mind was already unclear, and walked over to stand beside her, "Master Wang, Zhao Mama has a different mind, and her words may not be credible."

"Marquis Ding'an, why do you explain this coincidence? Is it possible that I will wrong your wife again?" Dai Lin said.

Dai Lin is not an ordinary servant of the Dai family, but a relative of the Dai family, and he was once a scholar, so he can be exempted from kneeling in the hall and exempted from punishment.In addition, with the Dai family as his reliance, he was not at all afraid to talk to Xu Xiaozu.

"The chief steward of the Dai family? A steward, even if he is a scholar, cannot act presumptuously in front of this Marquis." Xu Xiaozu said angrily.

"Father." Xu Jiatong tugged on his sleeve lightly behind him, and reminded in a low voice, "The Dai family is a family of queens first, not ordinary imperial merchants."

When Xu Xiaozu heard it like an eggplant beaten by frost, his momentum suddenly fell: "Based on the words of the two servants, and the long-abandoned Zhuangzi that just happened to be in the Ding'an Hou Mansion, it can be said that it was done by Mrs. Hou Ye. Why? Concerns lead to chaos, but good people can’t be wronged. Jiatong, do you think your mother ordered it?”

"Marquis Ding'an, don't get involved with your daughter. This is not just your family matter. It's not just your daughter who thinks it's wrong. It's no use if you think it's wrong." Master Wang turned his face and said loudly to Mama Zhao. , "Bold and cunning woman, don't explain the whole story clearly, lest Lord Hou think that the government has been tortured."

"My servant was ordered by Madam to get rid of Fourth Miss, because Fourth Miss..." Zhao Ma's expression was agitated, indeed it was not normal, and her voice was trembling and intermittent when she spoke.

Xu Xiaozu returned to his seat at this time, Lin suddenly stepped forward and sternly shouted: "Mother Zhao, I took you well, why did you frame me? The fourth girl went to Juexiao Temple to worship, and there was a lot of money and belongings with her. , you clearly wanted to murder her because of money. If you were found out, you would push it on me, why are you so vicious! "

Lin was also very excited when she spoke. For a moment, she walked from Mama Zhao's side to in front of her, blocking the sight of Mama Zhao and Lord Wang.At this time, even Dai Lin and Xu Jiatong could only see her back. Her hand suddenly stretched forward, and her wide sleeve moved, but she quickly retracted it.

Xu Jiatong was startled at first, how could Mrs. Lin lose her composure like this, is she really afraid of getting involved in this multi-person murder case?

She vaguely saw Lin's hand stretched, and the movement of the sleeve was a little big when she was shaking, and she was about to go and see, but Lin became normal again and returned to Zhao Ma's side.
