Tang Dynasty detective

Chapter 117 The Truth Comes Out
Li Canghai and Di Qing looked at each other, and decided to listen to what he had to say first.

"Nie Yuan!" Liang Xiu sighed, he let out a breath, and then began to say: "Three years ago, when I just went to Luoyang, I met a girl who was in trouble on the way. The girl's name was Fen'er, and she was originally from a wealthy family. Qianjin, but her family was in decline, she was bullied by others, and she fled here. I heard what happened to her, and I felt very sympathetic, so I took her with me to the post."

"Fen'er is knowledgeable and intelligent, and the so-called long-term love, we soon fell in love. Those days were the happiest time in my life." Speaking of this, Liang Xiu's face overflowed The gentle smile seems to recall the beauty of the past.

"It's a pity that happy days are always short-lived. I am a family man, and my wife is the daughter of the governor who resigned from office and went into seclusion." Speaking of this, Liang Xiu smiled bitterly: "My wife relies on the power of the family, She has always been unruly and rude, and she is very strict with me. She punches and kicks me when things go wrong. I have no tenderness at all. I originally thought about leaving home and going to Luoyang, so that I would never have to see her, but I didn’t expect When she heard about my falling in love with Fen'er, she traveled thousands of miles to Luoyang."

"A typical tigress!" Li Canghai said, touching his chin.

"Don't interrupt, let Master Liang finish." Di Qing seemed to be a little absorbed in listening, and rolled her eyes at Li Canghai.

Li Canghai shrugged and had no choice but to shut up.

"Cang Hai is right. My wife is indeed a tigress. She came to Luoyang quietly and poisoned Fen'er while I was away. Fen'er was eight months pregnant at that time."

"Ah?" Di Qing screamed, covering her mouth and said: "So, isn't your wife killing people? And it's one dead body and two lives!"

Liang Xiu shook his head, and said: "Fen'er is also fatal, she was not poisoned to death, but the fetus in her womb..." He closed his eyes and took a few deep breaths to calm himself down, and then he continued: "Fen'er Although she didn't die, she fell into madness because of this, and she has been unconscious since then. I thought that my wife would let her go, but what I didn't expect was that my wife was so vicious that she wanted Fan'er's life One night, she went to Fen'er's house with a knife. Just as she was about to strike, I found her. She wanted to kill me as well. I was so angry that I snatched the dagger from her hand, but accidentally killed her. ...."

After finishing speaking, a relaxed look appeared on Liang Xiu's face, and he said with a long sigh of relief: "Over the years, I have always dreamed about the scene at that time, my wife with disheveled hair seeking revenge on me, many times I wanted to die In short, I can think of Fen'er, but I have to hold on."

After hearing this, the first thought in Li Canghai's mind was that arranged marriages kill people.Although Liang Xiu has a cowardly personality, he is considered a man who dares to commit murder for the woman he loves.

However, the line between black and white has always been very clear, right is right and wrong is wrong.

"My lord Liang, even if Madam Ling does everything wrong, you can't kill people. Besides, you are an official of the imperial court!" Li Canghai bit the last four words very hard, and said every word.

"Imperial official? From that moment on, I am no longer an imperial official, but a murderer." Liang Xiu said with a sigh.

"So, this is your trick? Is 'Ni Lin Xuan Wu' trying to coerce you into doing things for them?" Li Canghai shook his head and asked seriously.

Liang Xiu said noncommittally: "They found the murder weapon I used to kill people, and threatened me with it. If I don't join them, they will report the matter to the court. My father-in-law is determined not to spare my family. Fen'er will be implicated as well. What's more, they said that as long as the major event is completed, they will find famous doctors all over the world for me to treat Fen'er's illness."

"Master Liang, although I really don't want to say those two words, I still can't help but say, confused!" Li Canghai frowned, and shouted in a deep voice: "You have been following 'Nilin Xuanwu' for so long, how can you treat them? Don’t you understand the means? To them, you are disposable pawns. Look at those people who were poisoned by you, who didn’t follow them through life and death, but in the end, what happened? Don’t you really think’ Nilin Xuanwu' would be so kind that he would really find a famous doctor for you? They are just using this as a cover!"

Li Canghai does not want to be a savior, but he is a person who values ​​love and righteousness. Although Liang Xiu is full of blood, he is not a treacherous person by nature. He hopes that Liang Xiu can recognize the status quo and stop being obsessed.

Liang Xiu stared at him intently, and said with a smile, "As long as they can fulfill their promise and cure Fen'er, even if they die, I'm willing."

"Lord Liang, you are so confused!" Even Di Qing felt sorry this time. She looked at Liang Xiu and said seriously: "Master Liang, the sea of ​​suffering is boundless, and you will be right when you turn back. As long as you tell the court everything you know, the court will I will definitely consider your crime as appropriate, so that you can take care of Faner!"

Liang Xiu laughed disapprovingly. He stared at the three of them and said, "Even if you know, who would believe what you said?"

Li Canghai sighed, and said, "Since I can guess Master Liang's identity, why don't I make preparations?"

With that said, Li Canghai clapped his hands.

In an instant, countless figures suddenly appeared inside and outside the room. After someone turned on the lamp, Liang Xiu suddenly found that there were two rows of soldiers in armor and Zaoli officials standing in the room.

"This..." Liang Xiu opened his eyes wide in horror.

Behind the screen, two officials, one civil and one military, came out with gloomy faces.

"Lord Liu? General Huangfu? Why are you here..." Halfway through the speech, Liang Xiu suddenly understood that everyone had already ambushed here, waiting for him to fall into a trap.

"Lord Liang, what else do you have to say now?" Duji Governor Liu Tong put his hands behind his back, his face full of anger.

Huangfu Kun also looked disappointed, he looked at Liang Xiu with an indisputable look, and said, "Master Liang, you and I have worked together for many years, how could you do such a thing against the imperial court?"

Liang Xiu laughed bitterly. He looked at Li Canghai, sighed faintly and said, "Canghai, I really didn't misunderstand you. Your thoughts are truly unparalleled!"

"My lord, there is still one thing I don't know. From what you said before, I was killed in Jinshui County, and it was actually you who did it?" Li Canghai frowned. When Liang Xiu talked to He Xiao just now, he hid behind the screen Hearing this, I felt a little strange, so I asked.

Liang Xiu nodded and said: "That's right, this is indeed what we did, the purpose is to prevent you from going to the post, and then use our people to replace you with the strategy of 'removing flowers and plants'. But for some reason, the official Wen was snatched by someone, but fell into Kang Xu's hands."
