Lady forced to seek prince

Chapter 217 Cruel
Zhao Jingyun squatted down to examine Zhang Yuan's body. Zhang Yuan's clothes were in tatters. From head to toe, there were almost signs of being whipped, and his stomach and lower body were extremely pumped.

At first glance, it can be seen that the perpetrator intentionally tortured Zhang Yuan, and especially hated him... as a man to reproduce the offspring.

This just corresponds to Ah Shu's death.

People in the village are good at riding horses, and almost all adult men wear riding whips around their waists, which is known to everyone.

All of these were arranged by the Liu family.

When Zhao Jingyun thought he didn't know the inside story, when he saw Zhang Yuan like this, he would infer it to Zhaizi.

Zhang Yuan's two feet were broken, and the toes had already festered, even showing bones. This was to prevent Zhang Yuan from moving his body.

There were many small wounds on the legs, all of which were torn off with a sharp weapon, and the knee was hit by some heavy object, and now it is bloody.

"grown ups."

The clerk from the government office arrived, and the old clerk saluted Zhao Jingyun, and immediately took out the instruments for an autopsy.

With Wu Zuo at his side to help, Zhao Jingyun soon knew the cause of Zhang Yuan's death.

"Zhang Yuan is pinching his own ribs in his palm."

Wu Zuo opened Zhang Yuan's hand, took out a sharp bone, and then opened Zhang Yuan's right chest and abdomen to find the broken rib.

Two bones can fit together.

Zhao Jingyun couldn't help asking: "Did he take it out by himself?"

Wu Zuo nodded: "The rib was broken first, and then the broken part pierced the flesh. Zhang Xiucai broke a piece and held it in his hand."

"Please look, my lord, the scratch on Zhang Xiucai's finger is consistent with the sharp part of the broken rib."

Zhao Jingyun frowned.

Wu Zuo continued: "The wound on Zhang Yuan's neck was the cause of his death, and the wound was cut out from the rib in his hand."

Wu Zuo carefully placed the broken ribs and the rib fragments taken from Zhang Yuan's neck wound on the white cloth, which will become the evidence of the autopsy in the future.

Just these few things can prove that Zhang Yuan committed suicide.

"Don't look." A voice sounded from Zhao Luoyang's mind.

Zhao Luoyang pursed her lips. She saw many dead people on the road, and she even killed people with her own hands, but she still couldn't bear to look at Zhang Yuan's corpse.

There was a churning in my stomach.

Because Zhang Yuanwei was so miserable that he didn't have an inch of good flesh all over his body.

It seemed that the most cruel methods were used on him, and no heavier hands were used to keep him alive.

Before, she thought that Zhang Yuan's half-opened eyes were just a grim look, but after careful inspection, she realized that one of his eyes had been gouged out.

She didn't know Zhang Yuan at first, but she had read the books annotated by Zhang Yuan before, some of which were revised and copied by Zhang Yuan himself after reading it.

The handwriting was tall and straight, strong and powerful, but not lacking in spaciousness and beauty. The words seemed to be seen by people. In her mind, Zhang Yuan should also have some charm, but she didn't expect... to end up in such a result.

Zhang Yuan is young and has a bright future.

If he is what the proprietor of the pen and ink shop said, he is talented and kind, and he only sells books to help more people read...

It is always a pity that a good person dies in vain.

Thinking about it this way, Zhao Luoyang's mood was inevitably depressed, and Shi Jiu in the system obviously felt this.

"It's okay," Zhao Luoyang said to Shi Jiu, "I'll take another look."

"It's the same when looking at the autopsy documents later," Shi Jiu said, "I've seen everything that can be read, and some places need to be brought back to the government office to be cleaned up before inspection."

What Shi Jiu said was correct, Zhang Yuan's body was covered with blood and stains, and many wounds could not be seen clearly.

Zhao Luoyang took a step back, moved his eyes away from Zhang Yuan's corpse, and saw Bai Yuwei and Zha Shuo who were stunned aside.

Both of them looked bad.

Cha Shuo was a man, and he was hostile to Zhang Yuan before, but now he looked better, but Bai Yuwei was different, she was wiping the corners of her eyes with her sleeve.

His eyes were red and swollen, and he had obviously been crying for a long time.

Bai Yuwei was familiar with Zhang Yuan, so she couldn't bear to see such a scene, and Ah Shu also died, but compared with Zhang Yuanyi, Ah Shu was much more respectable.

Zhao Luoyang walked over and grabbed Bai Yuwei: "Sister Awei, let's go outside!"

The guards are already checking the situation in the house, and going out now will not hinder the work of the government office.And it can make Bai Yuwei calm down, otherwise, if this continues, Bai Yuwei will collapse first.

"Okay." Bai Yuwei's voice trembled a little. The more she looked at it, the more she couldn't believe it. That person was actually Zhang Yuan. This scene might remain in her mind forever.

Zhao Luoyang and Bai Yuwei walked out, Huai Guang followed immediately.

Here, leave it to Zhao Jingyun, and he will protect the girl from the Zhao family.

Zhao Luoyang and Shi Jiu said: "I was just thinking that Zhang Yuan should have been tortured for some days, but he has become like this but has never died... Are you thinking about Ah Shu?"

There are too many details in the whole thing to think about carefully.

One curled up in the broken vat, hoping that he would go back and save her.

The other survived those tortures because he was worried about her safety.

Both men eventually died.

Uncle Liu said that Zhang Yuan fell in love with Bai Yushu, and he had been separated from them for a long time. Could it be that...the Liu family arrested Bai Yushu, and Zhang Yuan set people on fire, and finally rescued Bai Yushu? , he hid Bai Yushu, but he couldn't escape and fell into the hands of Uncle Liu.

Shi Jiu said: "Zhang Yuan wanted to survive until he heard a few words and deduced the truth. In the end, he decided to fight the Liu family with his death. He protected the village with his life, and he will feel at ease when he leaves at the last moment!"

These words comforted Zhao Luoyang.

"Thank you."

Bai Yuwei's voice suddenly came, and Zhao Luoyang looked back at Bai Yuwei.

Bai Yuwei said: "If you hadn't discovered something strange and sent the news to the government office, our village would have been involved. Zha Shuo must have died."

When the tall Cha Shuo heard this, he looked at Zhao Luoyang in surprise. He didn't expect that the government office would rush over because of this...short and thin girl in front of him.

"Thank you...this..." Zha Shuo coughed and did not continue, but bowed politely to Zhao Luoyang, "I owe you my life, if you need me in the future, just ask , except for dealing with the stockade... I agree to the rest."

Zha Shuo speaks straightforwardly, but his nature is very straightforward.

Bai Yuwei nodded and said, "You should thank Miss Zhao's well."

Cha Shuo didn't know what to say, so he could only bow to Zhao Luoyang again.

Zhao Luoyang said: "Brother Cha, get up quickly."

Zhao Luoyang did not refuse Zha Shuo's "repayment in the future". She did these things without thinking of Zha Shuo's repayment, but who knows if this promise will be useful in the future?
Shi Jiu suddenly smiled in his mind.

Zhao Luoyang said: "What's wrong?"

Shi Jiu said, "You didn't say you don't need him to repay you."

Zhao Luoyang said: "Even to complain to the gods, I have to light three sticks of incense. The gods don't care if it can be done. I still have character card tasks that have not been completed. When necessary, I will not be polite to him."

Shi Jiu said, "Okay."

That's what Zhao Luoyang should be like, happy and frank, it's her nature.

Bai Yuwei looked a little sluggish, Zhao Luoyang comforted in a low voice: "Master Zhao will find out about Sister Ashu, don't worry... Zhang Xiucai... will also figure it out."

"Well," Bai Yuwei felt as if her chest was being pressed down by a boulder, "I'm sorry, I just didn't expect it to be like this."

After finishing speaking, Bai Yuwei asked Zhao Luoyang: "Aren't you afraid?"

"I'm afraid," Zhao Luoyang said, "that's why I took Sister Awei out. But on the way to relocate, I also saw people who died of the epidemic, and... bandits killing people..."

Bai Yuwei said: "Don't be afraid, if anyone dares to harm you because of this incident, the village will definitely not let him go. The people in our village dare to promise this, and when I go back and tell the elders, I will take you there Take a look in the stockade."

Speaking of this, Bai Yuwei asked again: "Do you want to go?" After all, many people do not want to associate with people in the village, and even compare the village with those bandits.

Zhao Luoyang responded, "I think so."

Bai Yuwei's face showed a little relaxed expression, but soon it was shrouded in haze again.

Without keeping them waiting, Zhao Jingyun strode out of the room. He glanced at Zha Shuo and said, "You and I will go back to the government office, and I have to ask you about some things."

Speaking of which, Zhao Jingyun went to visit Bai Yuwei again: "I have ordered people to go to Liu's house to arrest people. You can also go back to the stockade and report everything, but this case needs to be heard by the government office, and the stockade is not allowed to act without authorization."

"Once the official discovers that something like Zha Shuo has happened, he will definitely be held accountable according to the law."

Bai Yuwei responded and bowed to Zhao Jingyun, she must return to the village immediately.

When Bai Yuwei left, Zhao Jingyun walked towards Zhao Luoyang: "Wang Huai will send you back to Fengxia Village."

In other words, she can't see the Liu family anymore?
Zhao Luoyang was a little disappointed, but she still had other ways to hear Liu's family being interrogated by the government office. She thought about it, and just as she was about to call Shi Jiu, the recorder had already appeared in her hand.

Shi Jiu really became more considerate.
