Chapter 655 The Truth

"I can only gamble. If I make a mistake this time and lose the bet, I will accept my fate!" Although the woman said that she accepted her fate, the light in her eyes was dazzling.

"He robbed me of three sheep, and I asked him to exchange [-] shi of rice and [-] pigs. It's not just talk!"

Zheng Wei replied to her question just now.

"What if it's human life? Can the Princess let him pay back his life!" The woman hated deeply.

"A kind heart cannot punish evil, but the laws of the country can! The emperor breaks the law and commits the same crime as the common people!" Zheng Wei looked at the woman squarely, "I may not be able to control the emperor, and I don't have the power to live and kill the governor's mansion! But I have the power of supervision bestowed by His Majesty. Can go up to the heavens! If their governor's office really caress about human life, His Majesty will deal with it according to the law!"

Zheng Wei has grown up these days, and has not impulsively made promises that cannot be fulfilled.

The woman unconsciously rubbed her palms, and it was obvious that she was struggling in her heart. At this moment, Ayun quietly pushed the door open, looked at the woman on the couch, and said in a low voice with a smile: "Master, I brought some snacks and sweet soup. Come on, fill your stomach first, and eat Jiaoer for dinner!"

Zheng Wei's eyes lit up when he heard the words, and asked in a low voice, "Grandma Liu did it?"

Liu Po ​​escaped from the north and was taken in by Yuan Wang. She worked as a cook in Xiuli Village and cooked good pasta.

"My name is Huiniang, and my husband's family name is Wei." Zheng Wei was eating snacks and drinking sweet soup seriously, when she heard the woman on the couch, she looked at A Yun in surprise.

Ayun also understood immediately, and said softly: "Master, please take your time, the slaves are guarding outside!"

Zheng Wei didn't care about her at this time, she only had one thing in mind, the husband that the emperor showed her in the case file that the bride sued was surnamed Wei.

"You really are Wei Liu's?" Zheng Wei still couldn't believe it, this was too coincidental.

The day before yesterday, she met with the deputy commander of the guard of honor, and ordered him to take someone to Qingling County to inquire about the progress of the case. When she came back yesterday, she brought back Shen Wenhan, who was in charge of the trial of the case. He told himself helplessly that the Wei Liu family had disappeared out of thin air. However, the old Wei family did not know her whereabouts either.

People in Qingling County are spreading rumors that the Wei Liu family fled overnight because they were afraid of the pre-trial punishment by the county government!
"Yes, I am the Wei Liu family who reported on my husband for stealing!" The woman's smile was very cold and empty, like an empty shell.

"What's going on? Your husband really stole the official money? Why were you locked up in the Governor's Mansion?" Zheng Wei asked a question that had troubled her for a long time.

"Although we got married not long ago, the two families are considered family friends. Ziqian and I grew up together. My father said that Ziqian is honest and kind, and he is a person worthy of entrustment. That's why he agreed to marry me to the Wei family."

Wei Ziqian, the husband of the Wei Liu family, has still disappeared to this day.

And his mysteriously missing wife is now lying here with only one breath left, Zheng Wei has a bad feeling in his heart, this Wei Ziqian may be in danger.

"It's impossible for my husband to do something like self-stealing!" Wei Liu suddenly raised his head excitedly and looked at Zheng Wei.

"Stick to self-stealing?" Zheng Wei felt that she was very close to the truth behind the case, "As far as I know, Wei Ziqian is a skilled silversmith, and he never sees official silver, so how could he stick to self-stealing. "

"Yes, originally our family would never know the appearance of the official bank. In the spring of this year, a nobleman suddenly came to the door, saying that he heard that my husband is good at craftsmanship, and wanted to ask him to do a big job. If he does a good job, this job The wages my son gave can be compared to several years ago. At that time, the family just got married, and my family was not healthy enough to rely on medicine. Suddenly such a good thing happened, and my husband was very happy. After discussing with my grandfather and my family, my husband was the first On the second day, I got into the carriage of the visitor."

"My husband has been away for a month. When I came back, my husband really got back a lot of wages. My grandfather and my family were very happy. My grandfather went to the back street to buy wine and buy meat. The family happily ate dinner, but I can still feel it. It's different when my husband comes back this time, he often frowns by himself, and I ask him what's wrong, but he always just smiles and doesn't say anything!"

Wei Liushi hadn't said so many words for a long time, her mouth was dry, she pursed her lips unconsciously, seeing this, Zheng Wei picked up the bowl and fed her saliva.

She smiled gratefully and continued.

"My husband stayed at home for ten days. On the fifth day of May, the carriage came again before dawn. It took another ten days to go. When I came back, I brought back more than ten taels of silver. Grandfather was still very happy with the money, but the more he thought about it, the more he felt uneasy. Grandfather said to his husband, "Ziqian, Father is not at ease, or we will stop doing this job. The money we earn is enough to spend some money." It's time!'"

When Wei Liushi mentioned this, Zheng Wei guessed, "Your husband probably didn't agree!"

"Yes, or at that time it was already up to him to do it or not! Later, he came back in a hurry. That time he ran back secretly. He didn't see grandpa and grandpa's house. He stuffed a bag for me and told me to hide it. Okay, I left. This time he left and he never came back. Two days later, someone came to the house to make a fuss, ransacked the house, and injured Grandpa. Grandpa’s condition worsened. I know they I came to find that burden."

Speaking of that, Wei Liushi looked into Zheng Wei's eyes and asked softly, "Do you know what's in that bag?"

"Guan Yin!" Zheng Wei already understood the ins and outs of the matter after hearing this, and the rest are just some details, "And you didn't let them search for it!"

Wei Liu was surprised and said: "The princess is really smart!"

"You are also very smart," Zheng Wei sincerely praised, she was very glad that she put away that burden, otherwise the four of them would have lost their lives, Zheng Wei felt more and more that the water inside was very deep, "What happened later?" , the old couple of the Wei family divorced you from the Wei family on the day you reported on your husband, did they have other secrets?"

"Curiously, I opened the bag, and there were five or six silver ingots hidden inside, about dozens of taels. At first I thought it was my husband who stole other people's silver. In a panic, I went to discuss with grandpa, thinking about returning the money. Man, if we beg again, maybe we can let my husband go, and my husband can go home!" Wei Liu didn't know what to think, and her tone was a little excited, "Grandpa took the silver ingot and looked back and forth for a few times, and his expression changed. Shout out to the Wei family, catastrophe is imminent! Only then did I know that these silver ingots are official silver."

"Grandpa wanted to return these official silver to the government, but I stopped him. If this thing is handed over, the husband's charges will be confirmed, and I always feel that there are many strange things in it. When those people make trouble again, I really I found out that it was wrong. If the husband really committed a crime, the people who came to the door should be government servants. These people are obviously the helpers of those big families. I lost my patience and dug a big pit in the yard to bury grandpa and grandma alive, and everyone in the alley was scared away by them, and no one dared to come forward to help!"
