Dayong Nu sentenced to death

Chapter 348 Why take the blame for him, the truth

A grandson, a grandson.

The former forged counterfeit money, and the latter was involved in corruption and murder. The children he raised by his side for several years and worked so hard to teach were all ambitious!

Xue Jingrong covered his face with his hands, and there was a sound deep in his throat, like a sigh or a sob. After a long time, he raised his head and looked at Xue Shou.

"Tell me, what's going on with all this?"

Xue Shou frowned deeply, seeming to be angry: "Grandfather, would you rather believe my cousin's nonsense than me?"

Hearing this, Zeng Yufan sneered: "It's really a dead duck's mouth."

Qi Xiang frowned and remained silent.

When the matter developed to this point, it completely reached a stalemate. Qi Xiang and Xue Shou strongly denied it, while Zeng Yufan wanted to take revenge, and he spoke with guns and sticks, every word to punish his heart.

The situation is very chaotic.

After repeated blows, Xue Jingrong's thoughts were sluggish. In addition, Xue Shou's expression was calm and composed, not guilty, and he was in doubt for a while, not knowing who to believe.

"Since everyone insists on their opinions, why don't I let you meet someone."

Su Rao raised her hand and patted it twice, and Yin Xuewei walked in slowly with a person outside.

Seeing this person, the three grandparents and grandchildren reacted differently.

Zeng Yufan glanced at Xue Shou meaningfully, saw his complexion turned pale, and said with a smile, "Hey, isn't this the eldest noble next to our cousin!"

Xue Shou stared at the person with straight eyes.

"Slaves are noble, and I greet all masters."

He held up the corner of his robe, knelt on the ground respectfully and kowtowed, Xue Jingrong couldn't help asking him: "Changgui, why are you here?"

"He is a witness, so naturally he has to make it clear in person."

Su Rao called out: "Changgui, let me ask you, has your young master left Dunyang a few days ago?"

Chang Gui raised his head cautiously, and glanced at Xue Shou, whose complexion was dark, and his pale lips were pursed to reveal his mood at the moment.

Seeing this scene, Xue Jingrong's heart was half cold, and with the last of her strength, she shouted: "Say!"

Chang Gui was terrified.

Immediately buried his head even lower, "Returning to the master, my son...he said that he and Mr. Zhao's family will visit famous scholars and stay in the mountains for a while, in fact, he..."

"how is he?"

"He left the mountain and told me not to tell anyone else about it, but to stay there and wait for him to come back."

Chang Gui shrank his head and said in a low voice: "The only thing this servant knows is that I don't dare to lie..."

"Master Xue, what else do you have to say?"

Su Rao looked at Xue Shou and said, "The date of your disappearance coincides with the time of those three murders."

"Does that mean I killed the person?"

Xue Shou's calm gaze became deep and indifferent, he glanced past her, looked straight at Yan Yun and said, "When did the imperial court rely on speculation? Doesn't the imperial envoy think this is too arbitrary?"

Everyone present could see that he was forcibly sophistrying, dying.

Yan Yun said calmly, "Then you just look at one more thing."

After the words fell, Yin Xuewei took out a jade pendant from his sleeve and spread it out in front of everyone, his voice was indifferent and unmoving: "This thing belongs to Mr. Xue, right?"

Xue Shou's body tensed up suddenly.

Xue Jingrong couldn't stand up, Yinxuewei hurriedly passed it over, he took it in his hand and looked at it repeatedly, then said in a hoarse voice: "That's right, this jade pendant is a piece of good jade I got in the past, specially looking for a craftsman Designed and built, three of their cousins, one for each of them."

"This piece... belongs to Ah Shou, why is it in your hands?"

Yin Xuewei said: "This jade pendant was found from a jade shop in Dunyang City. There was a crack on it. Someone took it to the shopkeeper for repair."

After he finished speaking, he looked at Su Rao tentatively.

Su Rao nodded slightly, and Yin Xuewei took out the pattern of the jade pendant drawn by the shopkeeper of Baihualou that day: "Old Xue, this was drawn by the shopkeeper of the inn where the murderer once stayed. fall."

Xue Jingrong took the drawing and put it in front of Yu Pei for comparison.

The more I looked, the more shocked.

Deceit, cracking jade, and embankment silver... Nine years ago, he met Qi Xiang in secret, and the Cheng family was full of entanglements. Nine years later, he repeated the old trick...

He got away clean, but Qi Xiang was charged with all the crimes...

"grandfather……"

Seeing that he was silent, Xue Shou opened his mouth quickly, but Xue Jingrong ignored him this time. Instead, he stood up with difficulty holding his chest, walked over his supporting hand, and walked in front of Qi Xiang.

Seeing this, Zeng Yufan laughed heartily, "How about it, you didn't hide it in the end, Xue Shou, your death is imminent, who are you still pretending to be a filial son and virtuous grandson?"

"I am ungrateful and ungrateful, you are shameless, none of us have the face to criticize anyone else, it's just that the old man has been partial to you for many years, only to find out the truth at the end of the day, it's really ridiculous."

Xue Shou glanced at him indifferently, and the killing intent in his heart soared.

Zeng Yufan didn't take it seriously and sneered.

Anyway, they are all people at the end of the road, so there is nothing to be afraid of if they can get out. It is not a loss to watch such a big show before they die.

Everyone heard his words clearly.

Xue Jingrong staggered, almost unable to stand still, Qi Xiang quickly reached out and grabbed him, "Teacher."

"Qi Boning, why did you do this?"

Xue Jingrong looked at him with tears in his eyes. In the past, when he first became a shepherd in the state, he had a prosperous official career and a bright future, but in order to conceal the case, he did not hesitate to fabricate a fake prison and make the Cheng family a scapegoat.

Now, in order to cover up the murder case, he has shouldered all the responsibilities.

And amidst his questioning and scolding, he held back and accepted everything.

Do you want to die that much?

Qi Xiang didn't know that things would develop to such a point. Looking at the white-haired old man with tears in his eyes, he was a little at a loss, and just yelled: "Teacher——"

The voice was cautious, confused and mournful.

Xue Jingrong looked at him, burst into tears suddenly, her legs softened and knelt down on the ground. Qi Xiang was so frightened that he was at a loss and knelt down almost at the same time.

"Teacher, what are you doing? Get up!"

He reached out to help.

Xue Jingrong grabbed his hand instead, unable to form a sentence: "Tell me, Bo Ning, tell me everything."

"Okay, okay, I say, I say!"

Qi Xiang's six gods answered in a daze, swallowed, and said shyly: "After I discovered Zeng Yufan's actions nine years ago, my teacher and I managed to fill up the hole and drove him back to Dunyang."

"But in the process, I vaguely discovered that someone was playing tricks behind my back. I searched and checked, and found Xue Shou."

His deep voice slowly narrated the past.

No one interrupted him.

Xue Shou, who was suddenly named, shuddered, but there was no other reaction. Qi Xiang continued: "At that time, the teacher had reached his age and was about to retire. I was worried that he would continue to cause trouble if he stayed in the government office, so I forced him to resign. Officer, leave with you."

"I thought this matter would be let go, but I didn't expect that the next year, Yunzhou would have heavy rain, the water level would rise sharply, and the dam would collapse..."
