Chapter 12

"This is simply spitting blood!" Huo Anu finally couldn't help but scolded, "It's impossible for us Miss Shen to do such a thing, don't the people in your yamen have any brains?
"What's the intention of doubting my lady so unreasonably?"

"Unreasonable?" Xu Zun's eyes widened, "How can it be such a coincidence that You Dalang just committed suicide in prison, and your side appeared in the silk and satin village!?
"Even fools will think about it, are you here to destroy the evidence! Is this still called groundless suspicion?"

"Ah? This..."

Hearing this, the two girls became confused.

"We...we..." Shen Qian excused awkwardly, "We really just came to ask about your scandal! How could it be, how could it be like this?"

"That's right..." Huo Anu also muttered to himself, "Obviously we are the ones who came to Xingshi to inquire about the crime, how could we turn into suspects?"

"My lady," Xu Zunsheng was afraid that the two beauties would come to his senses, and hastily continued to fool around, "I have just said that this is a well-planned scam!

"You Dalang's wife, Chunniang, secretly asked me for help, saying that You Dalang had participated in a major murder case several years ago and wanted to report him!" , she asked me to meet alone.

"Unexpectedly, our secret conversation has long been controlled by You Dalang, so such a tragedy of killing his wife was staged!
"On the one hand, he wants to kill Chun Niang to silence his words; on the other hand, he also wants to use this to frame me and let me be his scapegoat!
"Fortunately, I was resourceful and saw through his tricks. Otherwise, even if you don't want to divorce, you have to quit! Sigh..."

"This……"

Shen Qian fell into hesitation. Although she doubted Xu Zun's words, she had no choice but to believe them.

Because the Xu Zun she knew had a naughty personality and was not good at sophistry. If it didn't really happen, I'm afraid it couldn't be made so real.

Could it be... I really wronged him?
Although Shen Qian is smart, she is just a young lady who lacks experience in the world, so naturally she can't resist Xu Zun's fooling around.

It's just that Huo Anu is relatively sophisticated, she rolled her eyes and reminded in a low voice:
"Miss... don't believe what he said! Why do I feel that something is wrong?"

"Nonsense!" In the end, before Shen Qian could speak, Xu Zun yelled, "You little servant, how could you see the pros and cons of this? The matter is far more serious than you imagined!"

"Oh?" Shen Qian was surprised again and asked, "What else can I do?"

"What else?" Xu Zun continued to apply strong medicine, "First, I have checked You Dalang's household registration. This guy moved to Xinye County from another place a year ago, and opened such a large-scale restaurant in just one year. Where did the silk and satin village get the huge amount of money from?
"Second, they are not a legal couple at all, and they have no relatives, friends, or children in Xinye County, and their origins are simply unknown!
"Combined with the old case that Chunniang wanted to expose, and You Dalang's suicide in fear of crime, this case is simply full of doubts and serious facts!"

"..." Shen Qian and Huo Anu had been completely out of rhythm by Xu Zun, and they listened more seriously.

"Miss," Xu Zun continued his efforts and struck another heavy cannon, "I believe that you are definitely not the mastermind behind the scenes!

"But have you ever thought about it, if you are not even the mastermind, then what is the murderer doing for?"

"Really?" Huo Anu couldn't help asking, "Why?"

"I have reason to suspect," Xu Zun said without a word, "This matter may be aimed at my father-in-law!"

"Ah!!?" ​​Shen Qian was completely dumbfounded, "You mean...my dad!!?"

"No way?" Huo Anu was also completely dumbfounded.

"Xu Zun," Shen Qian actually changed her address, and asked anxiously, "Quickly tell me, why...why are you here for my father?"

"As the daughters of your family, you naturally don't understand the dangers of this world! Now my Daxuan Dynasty has mixed parties and factions, fighting openly and secretly, and turbulent." Xu Zun made up nonsense, "Although my father-in-law has retired, he has not He is not far away from the temple. He is an important minister of the court, and he is in his prime, and he may be restored to his post at any time. There must be some people in the court who don't want to see Lord Yuezhang come out again!"

"Oh?"

Just a few words made Shen Qian look at Xu Zun with admiration.

The Xu Zun she knew before was short-sighted, a frog in a well, it was impossible to see so far.

Of course, Miss Shen didn't know that Xu Zun's words were all made up, and they were just used to divert the focus.

"Then..." Shen Qian hurriedly asked, "How did you figure out that this matter is aimed at my father?"

"Because... um..." Xu Zun pretended to look around cautiously, and said mysteriously, "This matter is of great importance, and there are many people here, so I can't go into the depths! If the secret is leaked, it will be to the public instead." The investigation is not good!"

In fact, he hasn't compiled it yet.

"Ah?" Shen Qian believed it, "Then...you should discuss it with my father yourself!"

"That's natural!" Xu Zun nodded, and then said loyally, "Don't worry, lady, I will definitely investigate this case to the bottom and find out the bad guys behind the scenes!

"On the one hand, return my innocence, on the other hand, we must also protect the safety of Mr. Yue Zhang, oh no, it is to protect the safety of our whole family!"

As he spoke, he couldn't help but cupped his fists at Miss Shen.

"Okay...okay..." Shen Qian got up immediately, and said to Xu Zun, "You should find out quickly, and I can feel at ease!"

"Don't worry ma'am!"

Seeing that Shen Qian was about to leave, Xu Zun immediately opened the door, and shouted to the police outside: "Two people, come and escort my wife home!"

"No need!" Huo Anu put the heavy iron umbrella on his shoulders, "It's enough for me alone! You should investigate the case with peace of mind!"

When passing by Xu Zun's side, Huo Anu whispered to Xu Zun again: "The best thing you say today is the truth! Otherwise...my iron umbrella can't spare you! Hmph!"

After finishing speaking, she gave Xu Zun a hard look, and then escorted Shen Qian away from the silk and satin village.

After the second daughter walked away, Xu Zun let out a heavy breath!
Of course, besides Xu Zun, there were also the head catcher Zhao Yu and a group of catchers who were exhaling heavily.

Compared to Miss Shen's family, they were more afraid of that Huo Anu!

Although Huo Anu is a woman, she is known as the number one expert in Xinye County, nicknamed Iron Umbrella Female General, and even Zhao Yu is not her opponent.

This girl is aggressive, and she has the backing of the Shen family, even if it is an official of the yamen, she will be beaten as soon as she says, which makes everyone fearful and miserable.

It was also because of this that the arresters didn't dare to stop them before, allowing them to enter the silk and satin village.

At this moment, everyone thought that Xu Zun was doomed, he would either be beaten up by Huo Anu, or be kicked out by Miss Shen.

However, everyone was surprised when they saw that Miss Shen left in a hurry while Xu Zun was unharmed and calm.

"Lord County Lieutenant, are you okay?" Zhao Yu was the first to step forward and ask concerned, "Have you... recruited?"
