Jinghua watched as the two Buddha statues melted completely under the sunlight, and their exposed skin was exactly the same as that of a baby.
She was shocked and said angrily: "Who is setting me up behind my back?"
No one around him dared to step forward. They were so frightened by this scene that they took a few steps back.
"Where did this evil thing come from? It's scary to look at."
"The child is only about one or two years old, how can I bear it!"
Some ladies couldn't bear to look at the two dolls, so they took out a handkerchief and wiped the corners of their eyes: "Such a sinister method will definitely cause thunder and lightning!"
The discussion was getting louder and louder, and it couldn't be stopped at all.
Jinghua gritted his teeth and forced himself to calm down: "Everyone, I will definitely investigate this matter thoroughly. I am sorry for what happened today."
She issued an eviction order.
The guests also left one after another, still talking about this before leaving.
“I’ve lived for most of my life, and I’ve never seen anything so immoral!”
In less than half a day, the news spread that two Buddha statues and dolls appeared in the Jinghua County Lord's Mansion on the anniversary of Concubine Wan's death.
The news is spreading all over the streets and alleys.
Jinghua immediately sealed off the house and did not allow anyone to step out.
"Check, check hard, I want to find out who is behind this!"
After a while, countless guards rushed out and surrounded all the monks present.
These monks were expelled from the Huguo Temple and were forced to come to chant sutras and pray for blessings. They were already like frightened birds.
Dozens of monks looked horrified, but they were taken away one by one for interrogation.
"Hit me, beat me hard, and be sure to tell me the truth!" Jinghua looked gloomy and pointed at one of them.
The monk had no time to speak before he was held down by the guards. A few sticks were applied to his body. Blood soon appeared on his back, and he died within a short time.
Jinghua closed his eyes: "Keep beating until someone gives in!"
"yes!"
These monks had no idea what was going on, but they were beaten to death one after another.
The yard soon became bright red and smelled fishy.
"County Lord, today is the anniversary of the death of Concubine Wan. If you kill too many people, please spread the word..." The maid lowered her voice to persuade.
Jinghua squinted at the maid and said coldly: "No one can leave until the truth is revealed today!"
After saying this, she gave a look and the sound of the stick falling on her back was heard again.
The ground was already littered with corpses.
Every move in the county chief's mansion soon reached Jiang Yunxu's ears.
She curled her lips and sneered: "You are really cruel and ruthless! So many lives were killed at the drop of a hat."
Shang Qing asked cautiously: "If this matter is found out about us, will the eldest princess be involved?"
Jiang Yunxu shook his head: "What are you afraid of? I just want to teach Jinghua a lesson. When she is alone and helpless, if I help her, maybe she can be used by me."
This explanation left Shang Qing without any doubts and he was quickly convinced.
"The eldest princess is very clever."
noon
When the news reached Chu Xuanzhi's ears, he was a little unbelievable: "This is actually happening?"
Yin Feng nodded: "Now the news is spreading in the streets and alleys, even the common people know about it."
Chu Xuanzhi frowned and remained silent.
After returning to the palace, he saw many ministers waiting outside the Jinluan Palace, and he remembered that these ministers were also waiting here more than a month ago.
He glanced sideways at a few people and snorted coldly: "Dear ladies, what kind of rumors have you heard?"
The faces of several people who were stabbed were burning, and one of them bravely told the story about the two dolls.
"These two children are the children of a peasant woman in Dongshan Village. They are a son and a daughter. The older one is two years old. They were taken away a month ago and their whereabouts are unknown since then. The woman lost her child and reported it to the officials.
, the government is also helping to search, but there are no clues yet."
One of them added: "According to reliable information, on the day of the incident, someone saw guards from the county government appearing nearby and beating a farmer to death."
"How do you know it's the county lord's bodyguard?" Chu Xuanzhi asked.
The adult immediately took out a half-broken wooden sign, with a Chinese character clearly visible on it.
"This was left by the guard accidentally."
Chu Xuanzhi looked at the wooden sign and frowned: "Pass the county master!"
