Chapter 924 He asked me to rescue you
This housekeeper was so cruel to himself that he committed suicide when he saw his defeat. Those dead soldiers seemed to have been trained by him. He should be the instructor of the Sun family's dead soldiers.
Someone in the crowd of common people raised their own question: "Why is the steward of Second Young Master Sun a servant who kills people and doesn't let the prince attack the mountain?"
"That's right, he's just a servant! Do you want a mountain top?"
"I'm afraid there's something hidden in this, right?"
"Give back my child's life! What a crazy thing!"
"My poor child! Woo hoo..."
…
Second Master Sun looked very hurt, frowned and sighed: "Oh! The housekeeper once asked me to take over the small mountain behind Lihua Village, but I didn't agree. I didn't expect that he saw King Xuan wanted to open that building.
Xiao Shan was so confused that he did such a thing."
No matter what, the butler is left to bear all the blame.
Dongming Ziyu didn't want to use this incident to uproot the Sun family at once. The Sun family had been operating in six counties in the southwest for many years and had deep roots. If they were uprooted, the fiefdom would definitely be unstable.
Besides, the situation in Lianshan is not clear yet. If there are a large number of private soldiers inside, and Sun Chengwen is pressed at this time, he may jump over the wall and cause a mutiny.
Now Dongming Ziyu has not yet established a firm foothold in the fiefdom. He only has 500 soldiers and secret guards from Prince Xuan's Palace, so he may not be their opponent.
Therefore, the house and property of the housekeeper were seized, and some compensation was given to the families of the two victims and the woman imprisoned in the dungeon. The heart-rending case was finally over.
After two days of commotion, the people were finally calmed down. The dock and terrace projects were restored to normal, wages were paid daily, and the people were willing to come and earn money.
After the stones were quarried, in addition to building cofferdams for terraced fields, there was still a lot of surplus, which was transported to the wharf for cofferdams and stone materials for building houses.
Most of the houses here are made of wood, but Shangguan Ruoli designed all the houses on the dock to be made of stone.
Because it is a coastal wharf, it is inevitable to encounter typhoons and heavy rains. The wooden houses are not strong at all and will disappear as soon as the typhoon blows.
In order to prevent the city from becoming an inland river during heavy rains in the previous life, the foundation of Wuyou Ferry is higher in the west and lower in the east, and a flood discharge channel is dug around the ferry. The surrounding water will not flow into the ferry, but will flow into the sea through the flood discharge channel.
Under each street, there are drainage culverts made of stones, which are paved with stone slabs with rows of small holes. This way, rainwater will seep into the culverts and flow to the sea.
This creates a phenomenon where it rains from the sky and flows underground. If it were not a heavy rain, even the trouser legs would not get wet.
The construction of the dock starts with laying the foundation and repairing underground drainage channels.
…
Another three days have passed, and Bai Qingqing is still in the Prison Department Prison. Although she has never been tortured, she was poisoned twice. Fortunately, she has a portable medical system, otherwise she would have died long ago.
He, the maids, and the women were tortured. Hong Ye, who was most likely to have known about it, was tortured and died of miscarriage and bleeding. The others knew nothing.
Wang Feng, Zheng Shuyue and others outside are all very anxious. They are rushing around looking for evidence every day. If there is no evidence of Bai Qingqing's innocence, I'm afraid it will be difficult for Bai Qingqing to escape guilt, which will be the death penalty!
The crime scene is the place where evidence is most likely to be missed.
On this day, Zheng Shuyue and others came to He's room again. When she saw several maids cleaning the room, she couldn't help but look cold and shouted: "Who let you in?!"
"Ah?" The maids were shocked and hurriedly knelt down to apologize.
The maid who was scrubbing the floor hurriedly brought over the small bucket used to scrub the floor.
"Princess, please forgive me. It was the Second Young Master who asked us to clean up the house, saying it was unlucky!"
The second young master is He's husband. Even if He is released from prison, even if he is not divorced, he may not be able to keep his position as the main wife.
Princess Jinyang said coldly: "I am married, but I am still the princess. Is it useless to talk?"
The maids kowtowed loudly and begged for mercy one by one.
They were all servants and obeyed orders. Princess Jinyang did not make it difficult for them. Seeing that the scene was completely destroyed, they had to leave and find another way.
However, when she turned around, she saw something was wrong with the water on the ground. It flowed under the table and seeped into the ground along the cracks in the bricks.
Zheng Shuyue looked stern and said in a cold voice: "Get away! Someone is coming!"
The guard outside the door came in, cupped his fists and said, "Princess, what are your orders?"
Bai Qingqing pointed to the floor tile and said, "Open it for me, the princess!"
The guard also saw the clues and stepped forward to open the stone bricks with his sword. Inside was a hidden compartment with a beautiful teapot and a box.
The teapot was exactly the same as the teapot on the day of the crime, and that teapot had been taken away by the Ministry of Criminal Justice as evidence.
But why does it appear in the dark grid?
Bai Qingqing felt that there must be something wrong with the teapot, but she did not touch it. She watched the scene personally and sent someone to invite Wang Feng and the people from the Ministry of Punishment.
Soon people from both parties arrived. Duke Dingguo, his wife and Master Zheng also came after hearing the news.
I took out the teapot and checked it. It was indeed a nine-district mandarin duck teapot! The tea in the teapot was still there, one side was poisonous and the other was non-poisonous.
Bai Qingqing said: "I am sure that this is the first time for Bai Qingqing to come to this room. She must not know that there is a hidden compartment here!"
Wang Feng took out the box from the secret compartment and opened it. There were some banknotes and some expensive jewelry inside, which was obviously He's private house.
Bai Qingqing said: "The teapot that the Punishment Department took away was given by the deceased Mrs. Zhao. So where did this teapot with the same appearance but different inside come from?"
Duke Dingguo said: "This is not something from Duke Dongguo's house!"
The Second Young Master Zheng also said: "The teapot is not something in my room, the banknotes and jewelry are He's private room!"
Grandma, this damn woman has hidden so much private money that it makes him so poor that even buying a box of rouge for his concubine would hurt him for a long time!
In order to pay tribute to the ancestors, the Duke of Dingguo divided families into households. Although everyone's property was divided, they all lived in the Duke of Ding's mansion, but each family had its own courtyard.
Therefore, some things are distributed by the public, and some are purchased by each family.
Of course, Bai Qingqing would not take the money from Duke Dingguo's palace to get rid of those in the Ministry of Justice. She said in a deep voice: "Let's go, take this teapot to the Ministry of Justice and let Mr. He and Mrs. Zhao's maids see what is going on!
"
At this time, Bai Qingqing in the prison was being held by the wrist by a man who was emptying the toilet, "Doctor Bai! Come with me!"
Bai Qingqing looked at him coldly and asked, "Who are you?"
The man said anxiously: "I am from General Wang. He asked me to rescue you. Go quickly. It's time for the jailer and the guards to change shifts!"
Bai Qingqing's eyes turned slightly. She didn't want to be a fugitive, so she pulled back her wrist and said, "I won't leave!"
Wang Feng would not do this. If someone planned it, she would be guilty of escaping from prison. She would not be able to blame anyone else if she was killed on the spot.
The man said anxiously: "Oh, you can't live up to General Wang's heart! Go quickly, General Wang is waiting for you outside the city! And your children! The children all miss you!"
