Chapter 43: Fatalities(1/2)
She obviously wanted to check these two wood carvings, but no one discovered that the material of these things was actually agarwood.
Since agarwood is very valuable, just the craftsmanship of the two carvings, two hundred and two pieces is pitiful.
If we add that the raw material used for this carving is agarwood, then the two carvings must be at least in the thousands.
If you meet someone you like again, it is normal to spend ten thousand taels of silver to buy it.
Originally, Lin Mengchu spent two hundred taels of silver to buy these two carvings, but the seller didn't make a lot of money, nor did he suffer a loss.
But when it comes to agarwood, a fool will sell these two things without spending a hundred taels of silver.
In this way, it really looked like Lin Mengchu was bullying others and using his power to suppress others, forcing the victim to sell both of these things to him.
Lin Mengchu used his power to bully others and refused to fight due to his bad reputation.
In addition, Lin Mengchu bought this and wanted to give it to Princess Jing, so the bad reputation was given to Princess Jing.
Wu Yong was able to give Princess Jing eye drops before. If this happens now and Lin Mengchu is found guilty, it would be strange if Princess Jing doesn't bother Lin Mengchu to die.
Not to mention entering and leaving Princess Jing's Mansion casually, it is also a fantasy that Lin Mengchu will enter Princess Jing's Mansion in the future.
"Lin Mengchu, you'd better give me an explanation!"
Sure enough, Princess Jing immediately turned her back.
Lin Mengchu felt relieved, it seemed that Princess Jing was still giving him a chance.
If Princess Jing really concluded that she was guilty, she would have slapped these two sculptures on her face, kicked her out, and left Wu Yong in charge.
"Master Wu, can you let the little lady ask a few questions?"
Lin Mengchu turned around and looked at Wu Yong and Ku Zhu.
Sure enough, this victim was indeed the one who sold her carving that day.
"sure."
Wu Yong was confident in what he was doing and always emphasized that he should rely on real evidence and never make false accusations. So he immediately withdrew and was questioned by Lin Mengchu.
Before Lin Mengchu could say anything, the suffering master cried like a dead father and a dead mother.
"Miss Xia, please forgive me. Miss Xia, please forgive me. But I really can't give you those two carvings. If today's incident offends Miss Xia, the people are willing to give their lives to Miss Xia. I only hope that Miss Xia will return the two carvings."
"
"How dare you, who dares to take your life while I'm here?"
Wu Yong glared at Lin Mengchu's eyes, as if to warn Lin Mengchu not to pose a threat to the suffering master.
If not, the magistrate's office must be Zhisu.
"It is said that the people do not fight against the officials. Mr. Wu, the common people have gone to live in the next life. After being reincarnated, they will hold grass and tie rings in their hands to report Mr. Wu's kindness."
After saying that, the man actually hit the wall and died!
When Lin Meng first saw this, his eyes narrowed.
This person must not be allowed to die. If this person dies without any evidence, then there is really no way to wash away her current sin!
Lin Mengchu felt a sudden change in his heart, seeing that there was absolutely no way to stop the suffering master from seeking death.
Princess Jing sneered. She dared to go to her own Princess Jing's mansion to seek death and life. She really became her own princess. Is it just a decoration?
Although Princess Jing was intent on observing, she had no intention of helping Lin Mengchu as she wondered whether Lin Mengchu had the ability to handle the current situation.
However, this does not mean that Princess Jing can tolerate the existence of a commoner who unscrupulously defile the princess mansion!
There was a "bang" sound, and the sufferer wanted to hit the wall and die, but failed, but was hit hard by the guard of the princess palace, and his chest was filled with pain.
At least the sufferer whose limbs are tingling at this moment will definitely not have any extra energy to seek death again.
Lin Mengchu was relieved immediately. He didn't expect that his aunt and Lin Furong were so cruel. They didn't only help their aunt for money.
Now it seems that this person even risked his life.
As soon as Princess Jing finished speaking, the guard broke the master's legs.
"ah!"
A cry echoed in the hall.
Wu Yong's expression changed. It was always his "uprightness" that made the people next to him change their expressions. He had no idea. Now, he really tasted the feeling of imperial power making him change his expression.
In front of him, he beat the victim who complained to the door until his nose was black and his face was swollen. Isn't it also a blow to himself?
Wu Yong swung his sleeves and braced himself to pull Lin Mengchu out as a prisoner.
It should be noted that the Prime Minister's Office happened to cause trouble on Lin Zixuan, and it was the first time that Wu Yong had to handcuff the Prime Minister's son.
Wu Yong glanced at Lin Mengchu.
Precisely because the "evidence" was "complete", Wu Yong had already convicted Lin Mengchu in his heart.
Wu Yong escorted her to the government office like a prisoner, so what reputation did she have? What made her so miserable?!
Lin Mengchu didn't wait for Wu Yong to refuse and hurriedly filled in.
Wu Yong was originally unwilling to talk nonsense with Lin Mengchu, so he handcuffed Lin Mengchu directly.
However, no matter how good the agents like Wu Yong are at Princess Mansion, they are no match for the guards of Princess Mansion.
Zhou Xuanxi treated Wu Yong's gray hair very generously and gave it to Xue Sirong.
Xue Sirong immediately handed this so-called evidence to Lin Mengchu and asked him to look at it carefully.
After Lin Mengchu got the two sculptures, he looked at the sufferer coldly.
"May I ask you, these two things are your family heirlooms, but they are unique in the world?"
"To Miss Xia Er, it's just one of a kind. It's just this one thing. The common people really don't want to be unfilial people. Even if Miss Xia Er takes the lives of the common people, the common people have no regrets. They only hope that Miss Xia Er will carve the object.
return."
"I don't want to be an unfilial person."
If Lin Mengchu had not returned the sculpture, Lin Mengchu would have been guilty of unfilial piety!
"snort."
Sure enough, after hearing what the suffering master said, Wu Yong looked at Lin Mengchu, the more he looked, the more fierce he became.
"Master Wu, why don't you also take a look at this unique carving made of agarwood?"
Lin Mengchu simply handed the carving directly to Wu Yong and asked Wu Yong to see the so-called evidence.
Wu Yong finally got the whereabouts of the legendary treasure carving, but when he took it and took a look, although Wu Yong didn't see anything good, he didn't feel that the thing in front of him was actually made of agarwood.
Agarwood literally exudes a refreshing fragrance.
"Have you thought clearly, is this really your family heirloom?"
Wu Yong once again asked the suffering master for advice.
The sufferer thought with cold sweat on his forehead.
"Mr. Wu doesn't know something. After all, agarwood is a rare thing, and ordinary people are ordinary people. In order to prevent others from being greedy and causing disaster to their families, agarwood has a thin layer of performance, so it's hard to see
It doesn’t seem to be similar to ordinary agarwood.”
Of course, this was a foreshadowing buried in Lin Mengchu, causing Lin Mengchu to fall into the trap unknowingly.
Lin Mengchu smiled.
"Since you have applied thin wax on the surface of this agarwood, how can I know that this is a rare object?"
Lin Mengchu narrowed his eyes.
"Since this is your family heirloom, how do I know about it? Master Wu, maybe you can help me clarify it?"
"Chen Ming said that the day before yesterday was the anniversary of his father's death, so he took the sculpture to worship. Unexpectedly, he met Miss Xia Er on the way. Miss Xia Er saw the sculpture and insisted on buying it...
"
Wu Yong thought what Chen Ming said was quite reasonable.
"Does Miss Xia Er want to deny that she gave Chen Ming two hundred taels of silver notes to buy someone else's sculpture?"
Wu Yong's tone was not very good. If he had been in the hall, Wu Yong would have thought of execution.
Princess Jing can protect her for a while, or can she protect Xia's two thousand gold for a lifetime?
"Princess Jing, this matter is very clear. I hope Princess Jing will not interfere in this matter. I will take Xia Er's daughter away immediately."
"Wait a minute."
Lin Mengchu shouted.
"Master Wu seems to have not confirmed one thing. The young lady does not deny that she did ask him to buy a carving, but the young lady denies that she took advantage of someone else's family heirloom agarwood carving."
Hearing what Lin Mengchu said, Wu Yong was so angry that he laughed.
"The evidence is all in the hands of this officer. How dare you make such blatant excuses? What a sharp mouth!"
"Master Wu, are you sure that what you are holding is the carving made of agarwood?"
