auspicious time has come

Chapter 108 Even though she is a strong woman who is afraid of pestering her husband

Mrs. Jing Miao nodded, and Shun Shui invited people into the back hall.

Before they could speak to each other, the old figure knelt down in front of Mrs. Miao.

"Shaoting, I'm here to kowtow to you for my son, daughter-in-law, grandson, and my wife herself!" The old man's voice choked with guilt, and he slammed his forehead on the ground: "What happened back then was all the fault of our Wang family. Ah, it's our Wang family who can't stand you! The government refuses to accept my old life... If you want to take it, I'll beat you to death and apologize!"

Looking at the old man who was kneeling there crying, Mrs. Miao said after a while, "What do I want your life for? If you really crash and die here, I will have to face a lawsuit. Do you want to do business? Also, I am not called Shaoting anymore, Gan Miao is my name."

Her voice was very calm, without anger, but also without the closeness to the old man in the past: "It's cold on the ground, your legs and feet are not good, get up."

She didn't go to help herself, but followed the water and helped the old man up.

The old man's old drooping eyes were full of tears: "Young... A Miao, can you blame me?"

"If I say I don't complain, do you believe it?" Mrs. Miao looked at her and asked, "Even if what happened back then was all decided by Wang Ming's parents, you can't make the decision, but I have treated you like a grandmother these years, you know You could have told me the truth sooner, couldn't you?"

"Yes, it's me..." The old man's eyes were filled with remorse and guilt, and he was almost speechless.

"I don't ask for any explanation, any more explanations are meaningless to me." Miao Niangzi said: "I know, you have your concerns and embarrassments, and you still have to think about the grandson who doesn't know whether to live or die. It is indeed not an easy task to expose the crime - but you have your difficulties, and I also have my grievances. I can't do nothing about these injustices and concealments, and I hope you can understand this."

"I understand, I know..." The old man's tears hit the gray-blue skirt of his clothes, he no longer dared to look into Gan Miao's eyes, he just nodded his head blindly, and said in a low voice: "It should be so..."

She understood, and from now on, she will never go back to the way it was before...

Seeing the old man's tears falling down, there were guilt, sadness and desolation in them, although Heng Yu was a little emotional, but he didn't think Mrs. Miao's words were too serious.

On the contrary, those words were extremely restrained and tolerant.

If it were her, I'm afraid it wouldn't be possible.

The so-called concealment of relatives is certainly above the law.But outside the law, there is absolutely no reason to ask the victim to be indifferent.

"I've finished what I want to say." Gan Miao said, "As for Wang Ming, you can ask Miss Ji."

Knowing that Heng Yu was still investigating the matter, she looked at Heng Yu with gentle eyes while speaking, and Heng Yu nodded slightly at her.

"Let's go, let's go and see Dahei." Gan Miao said to Liu Xun.

Liu Xun, who had been listening quietly, looked at his fiancée with tenderness and pity. At this time, he smiled and said "OK".

He lightly took the hand of his fiancée, and the two went out of the back hall together.

Heng Yu sat in the chair, looked at the old man with a rickety body trembling with unstoppable tears, and said: "You might as well sit down and talk."

The old man didn't hold back, thanked him, and sat down tremblingly.

"You must have heard the confession of the Qiao family couple yesterday?" Heng Yu asked.

The old man nodded hurriedly: "Yes, I heard everything... Qiao's family said that their son also disappeared after leaving the city, and his whereabouts are still unknown."

The Qiao family was before the Wang family, the family whose son "died suddenly" after getting engaged to Gan Miao.

He was also the only one of those four families who knew about it, besides the grandmother of the Wang family, who was still in Yingzhou, and the couple already had a second son.

The Miao family was arrested and taken to the government the day before yesterday. After the fact of evading military service was revealed, the Qiao family naturally could not escape interrogation.

At yesterday's court trial, Heng Yu was also in the crowd, and at this moment, the confession of the Qiao family couple from yesterday reappeared in his mind——

The matter had been revealed, and seeing that there was no hope of escaping the crime, Qiao's mother bowed her head in tears in the hall, and Qiao's father lost control of his emotions, and his words were extremely emotional——

"Yes, we escaped military service, but we were also forced by your government!"

"The conscription order that would force people to death was issued by your government! It is also the people in your yamen who suggested that we have a way to escape the conscription! We did as we did, and gave money and benefits, but our son was lost again. How are you guys! You don’t know whether you are dead or alive! And now, the government wants to punish us again!”

The "government" he mentioned earlier was obviously the Yingzhou government office when King Jin was in power.

This remark undoubtedly stirred up waves.

Pei Dingyin confirmed and asked: "What do you mean by your words, is that the act of escaping military service back then was collusion and bribed the people in the Yingzhou yamen?!"

"If not? We ordinary people, where did we come from! Where did we have the courage! Without their planning and arrangement, where can we escape?"

Pei Ding: "Since that's the case, why didn't you report this matter to the government after your son lost his voice?"

"Do we dare? We haven't heard from our son for a long time. We went to find the man, but he only said that he had sent him out of the city, and the rest has nothing to do with him! When we got tired of looking for it, he threatened us in every possible way." You people in the government are as black as officials and officials, I am afraid that you will not help us find a son at all, but we will be put in prison and punished as soon as we speak!"

This is naturally the real thought when the thing just happened.

After that, even though Yingzhou City had a new owner, they also had a new child.

Even for this child, they dare not take the risk of reporting to the police, because they know they are guilty.

As for the eldest son... all they can do is to stay in Yingzhou and wait, hoping that a miracle will happen someday.

Pei Ding: "That's a mistake left by the previous government office. If you are guilty, you should be punished, and you should look for the person who should be found. What is the official position of the government official who planned this matter for you back then? What is his name? Do you still remember?"

These details were unknown to the grandmother of the Wang family, and she did not know the details about the son and daughter-in-law in her family who were in charge of this matter.

Therefore, the clues that the Qiao family couple can give are extremely important.

The crime is inevitable, and there is no reason to hide it anymore. With the last hope of finding the eldest son, the husband and wife confessed the identity and name of that person back then.

They said a name - Feng Yuan.

After recalling the confession in court yesterday, Heng Yu said to the old man beside him: "According to the subsequent confessions of the Qiao family and his wife, their son hid in Yingzhou City for half a year after his fake death, just to wait for Feng Yuan's arrangements. The timing of leaving the city. Therefore, the time when the son of the Qiao family was sent out of the city was very close to that of Wang Ming. Or, the two were sent out in the 'same batch' at all."

"Further up, the two people who were married to Mrs. Miao, because the time is far away, and the two families are no longer in Yingzhou, so the government needs to continue to investigate. But the Qiao family is known Judging from what happened to the son and Wang Ming and the time they left the city, their disappearances are probably due to the same thing—and the missing may not be just the two of them.”

In such a world, such a way of making a fortune, since they have already taken risks, how can they satisfy one or two.

Under Feng Yuan's hands, more than one or two escaped from the military service——

There must be more than one or two people like Feng Yuan.

There are so many interests involved behind this, and so many people involved, I am afraid that it will dig deeper and deeper.

The current focus is on what happened to the person who disappeared that year——

If you want to know the answer, you need to find Feng Yuan.

Wang's grandmother didn't quite understand Hengyu's speculations, but she also understood that the matter was far more complicated than she imagined, and she became more and more uneasy: "Then... is it possible to find Ah Ming?"

She shed tears and said: "Ah Ming is a good boy, but he obeyed his parents' arrangement too much... I didn't want to defend him. If he was wrong, he was wrong. If he can be found, he can be exiled or tortured." I should suffer...Miss Ji, I know that the government is investigating this matter, but I still want to ask for your help..."

Hengyu didn't hesitate: "This is what I promised you, and I will do my best."

This matter is indeed being investigated by the government office, but Xiao Hou's actions have a beginning and an end, and he never put this matter aside just because the matter of Mrs. Miao is over.

As early as last night, he had people search for all traces of Feng Yuan's past that were registered or not.

It's just that after a long time, Yingzhou City has changed again. The former officials were relegated or exiled, and their destinations were different.And this Feng Yuan's official position back then was not too high, he was just a rank seven official, it would take time and luck to find this person - in the end, it is still unknown whether he is still alive or not.

What she can help is to be prepared with both hands, in case Feng Yuan cannot be found, she will have to draw up a portrait of Wang Ming to try her luck.

The grandmother of the Wang family, who got her four characters of "doing her best", thanked her repeatedly with a grateful face.

Heng Yu didn't intend to say any more for the time being, when she was about to get up, she suddenly heard voices and footsteps approaching.

Liu Xun stopped outside the hall, and there was a servant beside him.

Heng Yu took a look and recognized the person at a glance, this is the one that Xiao Mu often follows.

and so--

"Painter Ji, Lord Hou asked me to send you a letter!" The young boy saluted with a smile, and then stepped forward to hand over a note.

It really is "letter".

Hengyu took it, opened it, and saw that the handwriting on it was neat and powerful, only a short line of words - Feng Yuan has been found and escorted back.

Heng Yu was quite surprised.

So fast?
She hurried out, and said to Cuihuai and Jiji, "Let's go back to Houfu."

……

In Dingbeihou's mansion, in the outer study, Yin Haikou is writing "tsk tsk".

"If someone catches him, he will be caught, and he will be interrogated. It's not an urgent matter. Why did the general write a note himself and ask someone to send it to Painter Ji?"

"I don't know if this is for the so-called business, or because it's so late and I haven't seen Painter Ji for a long time, so I'm urging people to go home with an excuse?"

"General, although we are strong girls who are afraid of clinging to men, we don't want to be so clingy. If we make a little girl look down on me, I'm afraid it will be a bad thing..."

　Sorry for being a few minutes late.

　　Good night~
