Phoenix Nine Heavens

Chapter 339

"My lord is right, but my villain originally thought that this would be the end of my life, so even if I had the idea of ​​changing boats to expand the ferry business, I didn't dare to make any extravagant hopes.

That day, the villain drank some wine in a small wine shop outside the city, and complained a little about his life, so he complained about the unfair world while drinking, thinking that it was God's fair treatment of the villain that made the rich The man is so rich, but the villain is poor, and even his own mother needs to rely on his brother Butcher Liang, who runs a butcher stall, to help him.

But at this time, a foreign businessman named Li Ji came to the villain's table, sat down and drank a lot of wine, maybe the two of them were in a bad mood, and the more they wanted to get drunk, the more they couldn't get drunk.

When he heard the villain complaining about the injustice of the world, he immediately expressed his willingness to help me out, so he put the silver bag on the table and told the villain that the villain would take all the money.

At that time, the villain thought that the kid was drunk because of alcohol, and that was more than 100 taels of silver. Not to mention changing a boat for the villain, even buying a house and a few acres of land for the villain would not be a problem. , but that guy didn't even blink his eyes.

Maybe he saw the villain's mind, so he continued talking to the villain.

Li Ji's family business is quite rich, and his business has been relatively smooth in recent years, but money is nothing to him. It's just that this person has money, and he can't escape the irritability and hardship in his heart! "Wang Si continued to speak, not intending to hide anything.

"Get to the point!" Mao Degui couldn't wait any longer. There were so many ramblings that he didn't have the patience to continue waiting, so he immediately urged Wang Si to speak quickly and choose the important ones.

"Don't pay attention to Mr. Mao, just say what you say!" Su Xuan, unlike Mao Degui, did not intend to interrupt Wang Si's continuation at all, so she immediately said such words to Wang Si, asking him to ignore it Mao Degui's urging.

She was worried that Wang Si would be intimidated by Mao Degui, but he would not be able to say anything clearly, so she didn't care what Mao Degui thought at the moment, she only cared about every detail that Wang Si said at the moment, she didn't need Wang Si to find anything by himself The so-called key point, after all, Wang Si is not a prison officer, so it is impossible to understand what is the key point.

When Mao Degui saw that Su Xuan was talking, he naturally didn't want to say anything, so he could only let Su Xuan and Wang Si continue talking, waiting for Su Xuan to find out everything and judge whether it was true or not.

Without Mao Degui's interruption, Wang Si continued to talk to Su Xuan without any pressure: "Li Ji said that despite his superficial appearance, he looks like that, but in fact his life is not as good as anyone else's." people.

The villain felt that the words were not credible, so he asked the reason immediately, wanting to know what happened.

But he didn't want to ask this question, but asked, his wife had an affair with others, and the two children he raised were not his, and he worked hard all his life making wedding dresses for others.

The reason why he was willing to hand over the 100 taels of silver to the villain was because he didn't want to take advantage of the unruly wife and the children who had no blood relationship with him.

He even told the villain that in Canglong County, he had been targeted by someone, and the unruly woman and adulterer had the ruthless idea of ​​killing him after learning that he knew about the adultery, so he Give those extraneous things to the villain. "

"Wang Si, I'm afraid you didn't tell the truth?" Su Xuan immediately questioned Wang Si when she heard this.

"My lord, why did you say that, what this villain said is true!" Seeing Su Xuan's doubts, Wang Si immediately defended himself and said, as if he had never told a lie.

"Since Li Ji knows that someone is chasing him, he needs more money in his hand so that he can escape from a dangerous place. How can he give you all the money to buy a ship?" Su Xuan asked immediately. Obviously, this statement is true. It's untenable, Su Xuan felt unreasonable when she heard it, "If you don't tell the truth, I will take you to the Yamen of Canglong County and hand it over to magistrate Mao to give you a severe punishment!"

Su Xuan threatened to say such a sentence, the purpose of which was to force Wang Si to tell the truth. Although Wang Si was not strong enough to smash the victim to death, Su Xuan believed that Wang Si and this case must have something in common. If you don't force him to tell the truth about the relationship, I'm afraid there will be no way to know the truth.

"Your Excellency really has a bright eye, and a villain can't deceive you at all!" Wang Si saw that he had no way to hide it any longer, so he could only change his tone and continued to Su Xuan, "Master, the 100 taels of silver was indeed not given by Li Ji. For the villain, the villain just shared a drink with him at the table once.

After drinking, the villain separated from him, intending to go back to the county town and his own home, but he didn't want to witness a dangerous scene when he passed by the ruined temple. Li Ji was dressed in black, entangled with a man in gray fight together.

During this period, they talked about Li Ji's wife's adultery, and it was obvious that the man in gray clothes was the adulterer.

Originally, Li Ji was going to kill his adulterer, but he didn't want to be stabbed to death on the spot by a young and strong man in blue and gray. Then the man in blue and gray poured a bottle that he had prepared into Li Ji's mouth. Some kind of liquid buried the body in the earthen wall behind the ruined temple, and then left in a panic.

The villain was frightened and stupid at the time. After the murderer left, he originally planned to escape there, but at this moment, through the moonlight projected from the window, he saw the silver bag on the ground and the 100 taels of silver, so he became greedy. , Feeling that the silver is destined for the villain, he put the silver bag and the silver inside into the bag.

Later, the villain left the ruined temple with the money, entered the city, and came to his brother's meat stall, asking him to order some food and drinks so that he could continue to finish the unfinished half pot of wine in his hand. "

Wang Si made it very clear that she didn't seem to have anything to hide this time. After all, if she concealed it in front of the officials, she would be making herself uncomfortable.

"No, doesn't that ruined temple have no windows? How can there be moonlight projecting in?" Butcher Liang immediately looked at Su Xuan in puzzlement when he heard this, and immediately asked such a sentence.

"That's what my lord deliberately lied to you. Since you haven't been to the ruined temple, you naturally don't know what's going on inside the ruined temple. If your lord says that, you'll naturally feel fear in your heart and explain everything!" Lu Feng said to him at this time. Butcher Liang said.

At that time, Su Xuan was sure that Butcher Liang knew too little, and since he was involved in the case, she naturally wouldn't know so many details, that's why Su Xuan lied to Butcher Liang like this.
