Chapter 24: The Serial Deadly Needle (Eighteen)

County Magistrate Lu sighed, but raised his head stubbornly.

"But I don't regret it! Zhu Gui should have died, he should go to hell, and he should be cut into pieces. My only regret is that he did not die in my hands!"

"I'm going to kill you!"

Zhu Yuanbao, who had been guarding the body of Master Taichang in the hall, suddenly held a dagger in his hand and ran straight towards County Magistrate Lu with a roar.

Ling An stretched out his foot and hooked him, and Zhu Yuanbao threw himself to the ground. The dagger slid out along the ground with a clang. He lay on the ground and thumped at the ground and yelled at the county magistrate Lu: "I want it."

Kill you."

County Magistrate Lu sneered at the corner of his mouth.

"With my original plan, I lit the Zhu Mansion with a fire and burned you all to death! Now I only want Zhu Gui's life, leaving behind many living traits in your Zhu Mansion, but you want to kill me? It turns out that the little man and the old man are

I shouldn't keep you as cheap as a man."

Ling'an's two words "Lengshou": "Why?"

Gu Buquan also asked: "The county magistrate seems to have a deep hatred?"

County Magistrate Lu sat upright in the chair, glanced at Ling An and Gu Buquan majesticly, and nodded.

"The deep hatred is irreconcilable."

Lu Ning lamented that both his parents died since childhood, and he relied on his sister Lu Shuang'er to weave brocades every day to support and study. Later, Shuang'er married a silversmith from his fellow countrymen. The family was not rich, but the couple was loving and had a deep affection for their siblings, and life was very happy.

.

Ten years ago, Zhu Gui returned to his hometown to celebrate his mother's birthday, which happened to Lu Shuang'er sending brocade to Zhu's mansion.

Zhu Gui fell in love with Lu Shuang'er at first sight, and wanted to take him as a concubine. He first spent money to let the silversmith get his wife, but was rejected by the silversmith.

Later he said that the old lady wanted to customize new brocades and tricked Shuang'er into delivering tricks to her. She put medicine in the tea and defiled her when she was sleeping, but later accused her of seducing the master.

Shuang'er had no way to sue, and died after falling into a well with hatred.

The silversmith brought Lu Ninglai to the door to reason, but was beaten to death by Zhu Gui.

The silversmith crawled to the front of the house and died, leaving only Lu Ning's words: Revenge!

"I am useless to be a human being if I don't avenge this revenge. It's been ten years since I thought about it day and night that I have never dared to forget. It is these two words, to take revenge."

The past is a thorn in the heart. County Magistrate Lu slowly narrated it, unable to hide the pain and hatred in his eyes.

"It's just that my plans cannot be achieved. Today is God's eyes open. I hate Zhu Gui's life, how can I deserve the lives of my sister and brother-in-law? I'm not willing to kill his whole family! But,"

County Magistrate Lu looked at the group of young ladies behind Mrs. Zhu and shook his head.

"I don't know, are there anyone among them who are defiled and unable to marry into the Zhu Mansion like my sister? My grudge cannot be added to the miserable woman as much as my sister, otherwise my conscience will be uneasy.

I will blame me when I see my sister and brother-in-law in the future.”

Gu Buquan vaguely remembered the scene when Zhu Gui returned to Fengye Town to hold a birthday party for Zhu's mother ten years ago.

She was still young at that time. She watched Hua Yaoling and others running to Zhu Mansion to join in the fun of having a birthday candy and birthday cake. However, she could only sit in the coffin shop and watch the master's coffin board. She listened to the sound of wedding cannons in her ears.

, I felt both angry and envious.

Who would have thought that behind the excitement and joy is such an unbearable thing hidden?

Behind the kind-hearted and pleasant smile of Mr. Taichang is so dirty and despicable.

County Magistrate Lu was straightened and sat upright. Although there was an old man and an old woman on the left and right, and Ling An on the opposite side, he had no way to escape, but he still held the power of a deputy official, which made people shudder.

His unwillingness was lingering fear. It was a blessing for the Zhu family to not kill Zhu Yuanbao or destroy Zhu's sect.

It is also because he has not been blinded by hatred and still has a trace of goodness in his heart.

At this time, the Zhu Mansion Courtyard was extremely quiet. After about a day of torture, everyone was unable to continue to torture. Even the Tang family father and son were drooping their heads.

"No matter what, Zhu Gui is dead. I have to avenge my great revenge, and I have to avenge my great revenge!"

County Magistrate Lu laughed to the sky, making everyone feel scared, and the timid wives covered their ears.

However, the laughter came to an abrupt end.

Zhu Ding secretly picked up Zhu Yuanbao's dagger at some point, and at this moment it was piercing deeply into County Magistrate Lu's chest. Blood gushed out, splashing Zhu Ding's face, and his vision blurred.

“Hahahahaha…”

This time it was Zhu Ding's turn to laugh wildly, "Damn it, if it weren't for you, I would still enjoy the glory with the master. Our master would still marry ten and twenty concubines. Can you take care of you..."

County Magistrate Lu slowly lowered his head and watched the blood in his chest fall to the ground drop by drop.

He staggered and held the wine table behind him, and suddenly shouted with all his might. A pair of bamboo chopsticks pierced into Zhu Ding's throat.

Neither of them let go of their hands and stared at each other until they both fell to the ground with a bang.

All this was so sudden and tragic that there was no time to be surprised, and there was no time to exclaim, and there was no time to stop it. Even the old man and the old woman were stunned.

Ling An clumsyly covered Gu Quan's eyes with a big palm.

I don’t know how long it took to be silent, but Hua Yaoling’s cold voice sounded: “You can’t care, now you can sell two more coffins.”

"Shut up!" Qi Liu Hai woke up, stopped Hua Zhiling, and then asked carefully: "I said, do you want to jump into the great god's soul? Who will pay the bill?"

Yes, in a blink of an eye, the Zhu family added two new corpses, and for bangs, there were business opportunities everywhere.

After a long time, Mrs. Taichang replied: "Jump, jump, there is nothing else left and right, you have to endure until dawn."

He didn't care about all of his hands to push away Ling An's hand and looked up at the sky. There was no trace of light.

"Silly, do you believe it?"

When the old man and the old woman heard this, they stared at Ling An, and saw him nodding and shaking his head.

Gu Buquan looked at Ling An and murmured, "I don't believe it either."

"Why?" The old man and the old woman stared at each other.

"Half true and half false." The old man and the old woman were confused.

Ling An muttered: "Fourth grade, seventh grade."

The old man and the old woman suddenly realized.

I remember Zhu Ding’s initial confession, the masked man said that Zhu Gui blocked other people’s words.

Zhu Gui returned home from the position of the fourth-rank Taichang Temple Minister Ding You, and this time he was summoned to Beijing to preside over the birthday ceremony of the Empress Dowager. He had great hope of promotion, and it was possible to block others' ideas, but it was definitely not Lu Ning's seventh-rank county.

To worry about it.

Judging from the expression Lu Ninglan described, the hatred should be true, but things are definitely not just that simple, and someone must have taken advantage of his hatred.

That is, when he used Zhu Ding to kill someone with a knife, he himself became the knife that others used.

“Born.”

The old man and the old woman seemed a little depressed. This ending was not satisfactory for them. They found the masked man who was fighting for business with them, but it seemed that he had not found it.

"The emperor said that if you dare to pay attention to the official's destiny, the water must be very deep."

"This seventh-rank county magistrate doesn't seem to be that capable."

The old man and the old woman deeply feel the same.

"Old man, you haven't talked about the cloaked man yet." Gu Buquan suddenly remembered, and when he was about to ask, the old man and the old woman had already jumped up and snatched out of the courtyard wall.

At the same time, Ling An chased him out, and the traces of them were gone. Only the black and white impermanent laughter echoed over the Maple Leaf Town, and was soon drowned by the loud gongs and drums of the Maple Leaf Class.
