One Step to The End

The Zhang Family in Shuanghu is a well-deserved top family. The three-bedroom houses of the dynasty are connected to occupy almost the entire West City. The neighbors in the neighborhood are all relatives. There are hundreds of houses for the descendants, and various hereditary names. The number is even more dazzling.

"That **** Liu Piaopiao wants the life of our family..."

Sitting in the middle of the mansion, the princess said in a cold voice: "Our family has been a princess for many generations. Anyone who wants to move our family has to weigh and weigh, but now it is all three forces. Once the source is found to be implicated in our family, don't say anything. Falling out of favor is sure to be full of copycats!"

"Hiss~"

The dozens of men in the Zhang family took a cold breath, and the three older brothers turned pale.

"master!"

A housekeeper suddenly rushed in and said anxiously: "It's okay, the horse master led some people to dig out the tombs of Zhou Xiaolin and Miss Zhou. There was an empty coffin in the tomb, and the officers and soldiers had already taken all of the Zhou family!"

"What? How could it be an empty coffin..."

The dozens of people in the Zhang family stood up suddenly, and the housekeeper said anxiously: "The little man doesn't know. There is not even a piece of clothing in the coffin, but a small hole was dug out by the mouse, and the corpse can't get out. Let's This time I will be miserable by the Zhou family!"

"Wait!"

The prince said in doubt: "Although Zhou's family is our family's in-laws, you can't copy our house even if you copy them all over the house. What's more, what can an empty coffin tell us?"

"Isn't Fourth Master Hong married her..."

The butler hesitated: "Some people saw the two young masters who had passed away often go to private meetings with her in the vegetable garden of the nun's nunnery. The rumor and rumors were terrible. What kind of demon, we will definitely be implicated in our house in the end!"

"Zhang Hongru! When did you marry Zhou girl, why I don't know..."

The prince concubine pointed at her elder nephew suddenly, and Zhang Hongru said in a panic: "It's just the second wife. I don't dare to disturb my aunt Fengjia. Last year, both of her parents died of illness. She felt unlucky and went to the temple to practice on behalf of her, but she never wanted to come back. I couldn't afford it again, and died within half a month!"

"Master! The Madam is here..."

A servant hurried to report again, and the princess hurriedly picked up the phoenix robe and led the crowd to trot all the way.

It was already time to hold the lantern. When a family came to the front yard, they happened to see Zhao Guanren leading in, and Ye Jier, Ji Xiaoshou and others were all here.

"Prince!"

Ye Jier said with a sullen face: "It just so happens that your whole family is here. Let me explain clearly where Zhou Xiaolin's body is going. It's not clear that no one should even want to eat!"

"..."

The Zhang family didn’t dare to put one fart. Chang Di Ji’s words were already very murderous, but Yuan Laosan even gloated and said: "Prince Concubine! I think you don’t go back to the East Palace, anyway, the prince has to be kicked out. Come out, your family can really play!"

"Huh~ The clearer will clean up! It's definitely not our family's doing..."

The crown prince glared at him with a full face, Zhao Guanren led the crowd directly to the big garden. Zhou's family was just a small family in decline. There were only more than 20 people including domestic servants. The servants quickly moved out of the table, chair and bench, and ordered. Dozens of lanterns were used for lighting.

"All the elders, sit down, there is nothing to say about the characters, it's just a routine questioning..."

Zhao Guanren smiled after sitting on the case, and the "elders" immediately gave the Zhang family confidence. He is the brother-in-law of the prince concubine, isn't he a family, let alone Zheng Yijian winks quietly, and the elders of the Zhang family have one after another. Sit down and straightened his waist.

"Who is Zhang Hongru? Where is your wife's corpse..."

Zhao Guanren lit a cigarette and looked around, Zhang Hongru quickly stepped forward and bent over, his handsome face was already ugly.

"Master Ma! I don't even know about the officials..."

Zhang Hongru said with a pale face: "I saw her nailed in the coffin with my own eyes. At that time, the maid and Jia Ding were present. I was afraid that her death would be unclean and the plague would harm her family. Didn't dare to delay for a moment!"

"Oh? Why is it so dirty? I haven't heard that tuberculosis is also contagious..."

Yuan Laosan picked up the tea bowl and cut in. The people of the three forces sat in a row. Ye Jier looked at him weirdly. This guy actually sat behind the big table in the middle, and everyone else became him. Zhao Guanren sat on the side instead.

"Coughing! Vomiting blood..."

Zhang Hongru said: "The whole government can prove that she coughed too fiercely, and she wore a mask when her subordinates converged. We can only follow the epidemic prevention regulations and bury it as soon as possible!"

"Master Zhang! Zhou Xiaolin is your second room, right..."

Yuan Laosan put down the tea bowl and said, "Go and call all the funerals that day, as well as your concubine room. Zhou Xiaolin's maidservants will bring them to the officer. Ten guards will come with him. Whoever dares to run will interrupt. Whose legs!"

"Subordinate officials obey orders!"

Zhang Hongru hurriedly took people there, and Ye Jier said weirdly: "Yuan Sanye! Do you want to go beyond me and be the presiding judge for Lord Ma?"

"Why not? The husband and the prince are related by marriage, so they should avoid suspicion..."

Yuan Laosan sneered: "Similarly! Changdiji and King Han should also avoid suspicion. If you can listen to it, it's an extra-legal favor. Don't talk too much, come here! The second room of the Zhang family will be taken care of, and the rest will be miscellaneous. People are waiting to get out!"

"Yes!"

The guards immediately divided into two sides, escorting the second room of the Zhang family, while driving away the others. Seeing that Zhao Guanren was drinking tea and not talking, the crown princess could only stand beside her in a hurry. Fortunately, the guards did not dare to drive her, she could stay. Come down to be a witness.

"Come here! Everyone in the Zhou family is playing 20 big boards, I think they are not recruiting..."

Yuan Laosan suddenly smashed the bowl lid to the ground. Zhou's family was immediately beaten to the ground, and the crying became a big sound. When Zhang Hongru came in with a group of people, each was frightened and frightened. It was scared to shrink back.

"It's just right!"

Yuan Laosan grinned and said, "Zhang Hongru! You are an official of your size. This official will not beat you for the time being. He drags all the women behind, and presses them on the stool according to the rules of the yamen. Take off your pants and hit 20 boards!"

"Absurd! They are so wrong, why do you want to beat them..."

Ye Jier slapped the table angrily, but Yuan Laosan ridiculed: "Making a murder case! Murdering a good family! Failure to find out the deadly poison Zhang Hongru is also a capital crime. The conspirators should be punished by the same crime. Shouldn't the official fight? You again, you are not qualified to interrupt!"

"Okay! Yuan Lao San, you have great abilities, Ben Ji will see how you judge today..."

Ye Jier hugged her arms angrily. Now the Zhang family’s women were all blown up. It’s not a big deal to hit twenty slabs, but she took off her pants and spanked in public. Kneeling on the ground and crying and begging for mercy.

"Just tell the truth if you don't want to pick up your pants, where is Zhou Xiaolin's body..."

Yuan Laosan picked up the tea bowl and smashed it on the ground. A servant girl climbed up and cried out: "My lord! Someone stole my lady's body. I am the lady's dowry girl. After she died, I personally waited for her jewelry. Thing, put it in the coffin, there can be nothing in the coffin!"

"Where is the tomb guard?"

Yuan Laosan yelled again, and the two old couples hurriedly climbed up and said in a trembled voice: "Master! I have been waiting for Zhang Mansion to guard the mausoleum for more than 20 years. Besides, we have a few big dogs. If someone dares to robber the grave, the big dog will pounce on it and bite!"

"fart!

Laosan Yuan slapped the table fiercely and shouted: "Could it be that the corpse will not fly by itself, and all will be beaten to me fiercely!"

"grown ups!"

A man hurriedly stepped forward and shouted: "The villain was one of the coffin carriers that day. I often do funerals for the provinces. No matter how light the deceased is, the coffin is too light. We felt like empty coffins at the time!"

"Nonsense!"

Zhang Hongru was frightened and said: "You nailed the coffin with your hands that day. Don't you know if there are any corpses? Why do you want to bite here indiscriminately?"

"Master Hong! The villain is just telling the truth..."

The man who carried the coffin arched his hands and said: "You did not invite the coffin to come for an autopsy. After nailing the coffin, he said to wait for auspicious time before leaving. I waited for more than half an hour in the courtyard. I don't know what happened here, but After lifting the coffin, it is obviously lighter!"

"Okay! Zhang Hongru, you are so bold and dare to bury your life privately..."

Yuan Laosan suddenly turned his head and clasped his fists and said, "Master Ernan, the emperor allows me to wait for the right to beheaded and then play. For such lawless madmen, this official recommends that he be decommissioned first, and then beat him to the board. I am not afraid that he is not honest. , What do you think?"

"Master Yuan is calling the shots..."

Ji Xiaoshou nodded blankly, Yuan Laosan immediately let people drag Zhang Hongru out, and the screams soon rang from outside the courtyard, and the princess was frightened.

"A few people who carry the coffin are good, you stand aside..."

Yuan Laosan raised his head and said: "The rest of the people have something to explain. If they don't have any, they all stripped off their pants and beat them again. Zhou Hongru's wives and concubines are 30 each, and Zhou Xiaolin's maid, drag Go to the county office to ride a wooden donkey, and then go live in public!"

"My lord, spare my life, I say! I say everything..."

The maid crawled over and tremblingly said: "My lady did not go to the nunnery to practice, but to hide and clean. The second master picks up and picks up dust. He often asks the young master to go to Beijing to do business and secretly insult my lady. My lady is Miscarriage lost blood and died!"

"Ha~ What a scholarly family, the home of dusting..."

Yuan Laosan looked at the princess sarcastically, the princess's face turned green when she was angry, but Yuan Laosan patted the table again and shouted and asked, "Where did the corpse go and where is it hidden?"

"The slave doesn't know it!"

The maid said with weeping: "My lady has a hard life. There are not many people who come to pay homage. However, Gui Liuye and Zhou Xiaoye always stay in the mourning hall, but when we went to send the spirits, they did not follow. It is suspected that they stole the body!"

Yuan Laosan asked, "What do they do with the corpse, do they have something to do with your lady?"

"No! In fact, my lady has already been betrothed to someone..."

The maid cried: "Ke Hong Fifth Master coveted the beauty of my young lady, so she used her power to force her to divorce, but the young lady has always cared about that person, and when she learned that the other party was depressed and died, she often said that it would be good to be buried with him after death. Maybe it was Gui Liuye’s kindness who helped her fulfill her last wish!"

"Who is that person's name and name, and where is he buried..."

Laosan Yuan stood up in surprise, and the maid said: "Young Master Xu is buried under a locust tree in Baiyangpo outside the city!"

"You lead the way, let's dig through that kid's grave..."

Yuan Lao San was as excited as having a chicken blood, and Ye Jier and others hurriedly followed out, but Zhao Guanren was sitting in his place and drinking tea.

The prince was taken aback for a moment and asked: "Yun... Lord Ma! Why don't you say a word, can you just sit back and watch the **** frame my house?"

"The corpse can't be outside the city. If the corpse is found outside the city, it means that this is a well-designed trap. The trouble for your family will be great..."

Zhao Guanren said: "If I don’t have evidence and I’ll help you speak, others will think that we are the same party, so I can’t let me handle this case. No matter how beautiful the case is, they will doubt that Yuan Laosan is the most suitable candidate. Let's watch!"

"Then you have to help me, Yun Xuan..."

The princess was crying, and Zhao Guanren whispered: "If it's just against you, I can keep your family safe, but if it's against the Ye family's plot to usurp the throne, the emperor may be taken down, and I The big drama I've been waiting for is the beginning!"
