Shen Yunyao didn't expect things to turn out like this, and didn't care about the dirty surroundings. She moved back and pretended to be calm: "Don't kill me. I, I will give you money, and I will definitely not do it after I go back." For those who surrendered you, when you get the money, you don’t have to bear the murder case and can go wherever you want, wouldn’t it be better..."
But no matter what she said, the black-faced man remained unmoved and continued to approach her step by step.
Shen Yunyao got to the corner little by little, unable to retreat, and finally broke down and cried: "You, how could you do this? You should be more trustworthy when you take the money, right? Besides, think about it, if I take you If the confession comes out, wouldn’t the fact that I paid someone to commit fraud be exposed? Do you think I would be that stupid?”
The amount of information revealed by Shen Yunyao's words was so great that Shen Yunhui and several maids were dumbfounded.
Although Mingyu had suspected it for a long time, when he heard Shen Yunyao say it himself, he still couldn't help but be dumbfounded.
"Second girl, you, what are you planning?"
Shen Yunhui thought she had heard wrong at first, but when she heard Mingyu ask this, she gradually understood. She was so excited that she almost stood up, but was caught by the rope binding her hands and feet, and fell to the ground in pain. She bared her teeth and asked, crying, "Second sister, what on earth do you want to do?"
Shen Yunyao was heartbroken at this time and gave the black-faced man an idea: "Otherwise, you kill all of them and leave me alone. Since I am also involved in this matter, naturally I will not I will give you away, and when you get home, I will secretly ask someone to come out and give you money. You will take the money and fly away. From now on, we will go back to the bridge, and the mountains and rivers will not meet each other. What do you think?"
"Second, second sister?" Shen Yunhui could hardly believe her ears. She watched the dark-faced man turn his head to look at her and screamed in fright, "Ah - don't come over. I, I won't do it either." You confessed it, please don’t kill me, please, I really don’t know anything-"
The personal maids of Shen Yunyao and Shen Yunhui were frightened and could only scream along with Shen Yunhui.
Only Mingyu plopped down and knelt in front of the black-faced man and said: "Brother, since you now know our identities, let's open the sky and tell the truth. Both girls are the daughters of the prefect, and our master is from Taiyuan. The ancestors of the Shen family all followed Emperor Taizu to conquer the country. If the two of them had a good relationship, I dare not say that it would alarm the whole country, at least half of them, and Huguang would definitely be turned upside down. .
"I just heard that the two eldest brothers were deceived and ended up in the situation they are in now. They must just want to make some money, and they are not really evil people. The gold and silver jewelry and jade pendants and jade rings on the two girls are not worth taking. It can be sold for a lot of money. Although we maids don't have anything valuable on us, we can still get a dozen taels of silver together.
"The two eldest brothers took the money and shut up when we go back. Let's just pretend that this never happened. What do you think?"
The black-faced man hesitated slightly after hearing this.
Mingyu just said something that directly touched his heart.
If you kill the daughter of the prefect's family, you know that the days to come will definitely not be easy.
If there is a chance to live a normal life, who would want to live with several lives on their backs?
Mingyu saw that the black-faced man was a little moved, and was about to strike a few words while the iron was hot.
The coachman who had been standing at the door said: "Brother! You, don't let her, they fool you, there is no impenetrable wall in the world, she, there are so many of them, sooner or later, they will say it What a day!"
Just when the black-faced man was still hesitating, the coachman was suddenly called out. After a while, his expression changed when he came back.
"Brother, do it quickly, there is no time, there is someone here!"
The black-faced man's heart trembled when he heard this. He stopped talking nonsense, clenched the knife in his hand, and stabbed Shen Yunyao directly in the heart...
The southwest corner of Yongzhou City is a large slum, with various types of shacks and mud houses, all crowded together.
The government, as well as some officials, wealthy businessmen, and wealthy people in the city, come here every winter to give porridge and medicine.
This year's snowstorm in Yongzhou Prefecture, the houses collapsed by the heavy snow are also concentrated here in the northwest corner.
Moreover, this is not only a place where poor people gather, but it is also the place with the worst security in the city.
Be it petty theft, robbery, wounding, or raping women... almost half of the cases in Yongzhou Prefecture every year are eventually traced to this area in the northwest corner.
In the past few years when Shen Zhonglei was the prefect, although he had tried his best to solve the livelihood problems of these people, he could only alleviate the conflicts and could not completely change them in a short time.
The road in the northwest corner was very narrow, with twists and turns, making it difficult for cars to pass. Everyone had to get off their horses and prepare to walk in.
Fan Yuru originally wanted to say that he could just take people in to investigate, and Shen Tianshu only had to wait in the car.
But Shen Tianshu put on his curtain hat, got out of the car without hesitation, and walked inside without any hesitation.
In her previous life, she had followed her grandfather many times to treat poor people in various cities. She had been to countless places like this. Now that she was worried about Mingyu, there was nothing to dislike.
Fan Yuru was just stunned. Shen Tianshu had already led Minghui straight into the alley. He quickly called the guards to follow him.
Such a group of people walking in such a place is already enough to attract attention.
Surprise, greed, doubt, scrutiny, calculation...all kinds of gazes, either naked or veiled, finally fell on them.
If Fan Yuru hadn't brought a few guards with him, someone might have come here to cause trouble.
The terrain here in the northwest corner is complex. There are mud houses and wooden houses. Not only are they not built according to the horizontal and vertical plan, but after they are built, half a room is connected to the east and a room is built to the west.
If you are not familiar with the terrain, you will not be able to find out where the third row or row is.
The group of people could only ask around while walking, and scattered a lot of coins, and finally asked Kieba Xiaoliuzi where he lived.
Shen Tianshu was extremely anxious at this time. She knew best that in a place like the northwest corner, there were people from all walks of life.
Snakes follow their own paths, rats follow their own paths, and news spreads very quickly.
The group of people had made inquiries just now, and they might have alerted the enemy, so they had to rush over as soon as possible.
"It's right in front, we'll be there soon!" the guard who had been identifying the direction and clearing the way for everyone warned loudly.
Shen Tianshu's legs were sore from walking, but he still gritted his teeth and continued to follow the crowd, running towards Kieba Xiaoliuzi's home.
Xiaoliuzi's house didn't even have a gate, and there were a lot of junk piled in the yard.
"ah--"
Before Shen Tianshu could step into the yard, he heard a shrill scream coming from the house.
Immediately afterwards, screams and cries broke out.
