Chapter 178 Dog bites dog

The officer's words shocked all the tourists on the river.

Wan Fulin is dead?

impossible.

Magistrate Cheng was also a little unconvinced, "Which Mr. Wan from Wanfu?"

Maybe they have the same surname.

"Master Wan of Wan Fulin in the north of the city, sir, Mrs. Wan has captured a suspect and given it away. At this time, she is beating drums to complain."

Magistrate Cheng was shocked again and again, and quickly asked Huafang to find a place to dock.

As soon as the boat stopped, Magistrate Cheng hurried ashore and asked the Jiang family to follow them back.

Seeing this, other tourists in the river also asked the boatman to quickly dock. They had to go and see the excitement!

The most famous Mr. Wan in Yao County suddenly died suddenly, and the suspect was caught. If you don't watch such a big excitement, you will regret it for the rest of your life.

In a short time, all the tourists on the river that had been bustling just now were gone, and the merchants were so angry that they gnashed their teeth and cursed Mr. Wan.

"You'll die sooner or later, but you've waited until this moment! What should we do with the snacks we prepared? Throw them into the river to feed the fish?"

Magistrate Cheng had to rush back to handle the case, so he rode away after landing.

The Jiang family and Mrs. Cheng's mother and son were one step behind, mixed in with the crowd watching the fun.

Chen Yuezhi was still a little curious, "Who is Mr. Wan? Why did so many people come to see the fun after he died?"

Mrs. Cheng gave her a complicated look and told her Mr. Wan's identity.

Chen Yuezhi's first reaction was, "Didn't Zheng Cuier become a widow at a young age? Isn't that too pitiful?"

When Jiang Wan and the others rushed to the Yamen, the Yamen was already crowded with people.

People who came earlier had already blocked the Yamen. Those who came later had to find a way to stand higher if they wanted to watch the fun.

Mrs. Cheng thought for a while and said to the Jiang family: "Let's go to the back office."

Although Magistrate Cheng and his family did not live in Houya, it was extremely easy for Mrs. Cheng to get in.

The group of people walked around to the back office, and then from the back office to the court hall in front, and found a position with the best view to watch the excitement.

Above the courtroom, Mr. Wan's body was covered with a piece of white cloth and placed in the middle. Kneeling next to him was Mrs. Wan. Kneeling on the other side of the body was Mr. Zhong, who was bloated and inhuman, and Mrs. Zhong, who had obviously been beaten.

Zheng Cuier cleaned up her meal.

Mrs. Wan cried so hard that she almost fainted. Although she and Mr. Wan had been strangers for a long time, their interests were tied together after all. Mr. Wan was dead and she had no children, so the end would not be too good.

Zheng Cuier's face turned pale, and she knelt down in the hall and shivered.

Master Zhong kept defending himself, "Sir, I really did not kill Mr. Wan. As soon as I entered, I saw Mr. Wan fainting on the couch with foam at the mouth. Everything I said is true. Please check it out.

"

Unfortunately, his face was swollen, and he was sweating all over as he tried hard to speak every word clearly.

Mrs. Wan was crying so much that she could no longer speak, so she asked the housekeeper to come over and help her speak.

"Sir, my husband was fine before he entered the study. Yesterday, he and his wife asked for safe pulse. There was no abnormality in his body. After Master Zhong entered the room, he suddenly died of an unknown accident. Please give me a message.

Your Excellency, please redress my grievance, find out the truth, and give me justice."

Magistrate Cheng turned to look at Zheng Cuier, who had disheveled hair, and asked, "Who are you?"

Zheng Cuier was so frightened that she could only repeat one sentence: "I didn't kill him, I didn't kill him."

The housekeeper said: "That is the sixth concubine that I have just had for half a month. There are rumors outside that Mrs. Zheng and Mrs. Zhong are having an affair, so Madam suspects that the two of them conspired to kill the master."

Master Zhong was so frightened that he quickly grabbed his head and said, "My lord, I am wronged. My lord, I really did not kill Mr. Wan, let alone have an affair with this Zheng family. Please tell me a lesson and clear my name."

Mrs. Wan calmed down at this moment and shouted: "If you and that bitch didn't have an affair, then why did you help her to flatter that student of the Jiang family!"

Master Zhong hurriedly argued: "I'm not helping her at all! Master Wan told me before to take good care of Zheng's younger brother and not let him be bullied."

Mrs. Wan sneered: "What a joke, Mrs. Zheng is just a cheap concubine that my family bought for fifty taels of silver. How could my master specifically give you instructions for such a thing! Who do you think would believe such a thing?"

"You keep saying that my master ordered you to do it. Can you please provide a witness to prove it? If not, then I dare to conclude that you teamed up with that bitch Zheng to kill my master and try to steal the Wan family's ten thousand yuan.

Produce!"

Master Zhong pointed at the steward of Wan Mansion and said, "He was there that day, and he heard what Mr. Wan said with his own ears!"

The butler shook his head firmly: "I've never heard of this before!"

He had indeed heard of it, but Master Wan was his master at that time. But now that Master Wan is dead, then Mrs. Wan is his master. The master wants to kill Master Zhong and Mrs. Zheng, so of course he knows how to speak.

Master Zhong's eyes widened and he looked at Butler Wanfu in disbelief.

Magistrate Cheng patted the gavel and said, "Zhong Xiucai, can you provide any other evidence?"

Of course Mr. Zhong couldn't prove it, but he didn't kill Mr. Wan at all. If he wanted to get away with it, he had to find out the real murderer.

So he suddenly said: "Sir, Mr. Wan's death is really strange. I suspect that someone deliberately murdered Mr. Wan and put the blame on me."

Magistrate Cheng asked: "Then who do you think is the most suspicious?"

Master Zhong said without thinking: "Jiang family! They must have done it! I wronged Jiang Jiacheng today. His little sister was like a madman. She beat me up and injured my little boy. It must be Jiang."

My family was afraid of revenge from me and Mr. Wan, so I killed Mr. Wan and put the blame on me."

Jiang Wan stood in the crowd, her eyes flashing.

Master Zhong is pretty good at guessing, but I don't know if he is really smart or just biting randomly.

Magistrate Cheng Cheng sneered: "Zhong Xiucai, you have to rely on evidence to speak. Do you know where the Jiang family of seven was when the crime occurred?"

Of course Master Zhong didn't know that he was stung by those bees and almost lost half his life. He finally waited for the doctor to prescribe medicine to stabilize him, and then hurried to Wan's house, and this happened.

Magistrate Cheng Cheng said: "From this morning, when I personally took the Jiang family and his son to your private school to apologize, until the time of the incident, the Jiang family, father and son, and other members of the Jiang family were all there with me, everyone in the Yamen, and me.

The official's wife was operating under the nose. At the time of the incident, all seven members of the Jiang family were in the boat on the Yao River."

Master Zhong subconsciously said: "Impossible!"

Magistrate Cheng's eyes turned cold: "Then you mean that I am lying?"

Master Zhong was really forced to a dead end, so he bravely expressed his suspicions: "The Jiang family is on good terms with you, so I don't rule out that you are protecting them."
