I became the villain's deceased wife

Chapter 104 Nowhere to turn

Song Tian was disappointed, but had to leave.

Xie Yunzhe and Liu both felt that this was a deliberate frame-up, so this Shopkeeper Zhu was most likely one of them. Why would he choose to reconcile with her?

She thought about it and wondered if this was really a setup.

Then could it be that Xie Boyong, who recommended Xie Yunzhe to the bookstore, is also involved?

So she went to Qingshan Academy to look for it.

Xie Boyong was shocked when he heard this:

"What? Yunzhe actually killed someone!"

Song Tian quietly observed his expression.

“It’s not murder, it’s frame-up!

The man hid the ink in his cupboard while her husband was out, and stole his purse, putting it on Qiu Feng who was killed.

"Oh--"

Xie Boyong stroked his beard, looking relieved.

"In that case, wouldn't it be OK if we find someone to prove where he went during that time?"

Song Tian remained calm.

"But the waiter at the teahouse he visited suddenly turned hostile and said he had never seen Xie Yunzhe.

There was no record of his booking in the teahouse's ledger."

"hiss--

Is there such a thing? "

Xie Boyong's face was full of disbelief.

"That's really strange."

Song Tian looked at him for a long time, but could not see anything unusual in his expression, so he bowed to Xie Boyong and said:

"Fifth Uncle, it was you who recommended my husband for this job. Now that something like this has happened, the bookstore owner Zhu is unwilling to make concessions.

Song Tian dared to ask, if you are familiar with him, could you go and help plead for mercy?

The Qiu Feng who died was a servant. If he wanted, Xie Yunzhe could be exempted from the death penalty!"

Xie Boyong looked embarrassed.

"Niece-in-law, get up first.

Mr. Zhu and I are just nodding acquaintances, and we don’t have any deep relationship.”

He sighed:

“In this situation, I can only try my best.

If he doesn't agree, don't blame me, my niece-in-law!"

There was shame and hesitation in his tone, and it didn't sound fake.

Song Tian could only thank him:

"Thank you for your help, Uncle. As long as you are willing to say it, Song Tian will keep it in mind whether it succeeds or not."

Xie Boyong nodded and sent Song Tian out reluctantly.

But when he turned around, all the emotions on his face disappeared, leaving only a gloomy look...

After bidding farewell to Xie Boyong, Song Tian came to Xiangming Pavilion again.

The second brother got a headache when he saw her.

"My lady, I have told you so many times that I really didn't see your husband yesterday!"

Song Tian smiled coldly:

"Don't get me wrong, little brother. I just came here to treat you to some tea!"

She thought about it again and again yesterday and felt that this young man was the best breakthrough point.

So he spent ten taels of silver to book a guest room in the Tinghai Pavilion where Xie Yunzhe had been before.

He even ordered a pot of snow-capped green tea and personally treated the waiter to tea.

As a waiter in a teahouse, he cannot refuse a customer's request.

"I still don't know what to call you, little brother. How old are you this year?"

Song Tian asked nonchalantly while pouring tea for the fidgeting waiter.

"My dear lady, my name is Li Yan and I am twenty-one this year."

He was sweating.

After pouring tea for guests for so many years, this was the first time he was served by someone else.

But it made him feel very uncomfortable.

“Oh, twenty-one.

Did the young man marry?"

Li Yan nodded:

"Yes, my neighbor introduced me to her. She gave birth to a boy for me last year."

Perhaps because he was talking about his family, the expression on Li Yan's face relaxed a little.

"You have a son, congratulations!"

Li Yan's face was filled with a happy smile.

"Hey, what are you congratulating me for? He's just a naughty boy. He started bullying his dad before he even learned to walk."

Song Tian's face suddenly fell, and she touched her stomach absentmindedly:

"Your son still has a father to bully, but my child..."

A tear rolled in her eye, looking so pitiful.

"His father was wrongly accused of death before he was even born!"

Li Yan's smile froze on his face instantly, and the snow-capped emerald in his hand no longer smelled fragrant.

"My husband, you died so unjustly.

When you get there, don't let go of those villains who killed you!"

Song Tian gritted her teeth and played the role of a hapless and resentful woman to perfection.

Li Yan quickly threw down the teacup and looked at her in horror:

"Little...little lady, please don't be like this! It's not that I don't want to help you, it's...I am also forced to do so.

If I help you, then...then my son will be left without a father!"

He looked outside the door in panic, and seeing no one around, he lowered his voice and explained quietly.

Song Tian frowned:

"Who is so powerful? He really dares to kill people at will. Doesn't he fear the law?"

Li Yan watched her face return to normal and realized that he had been fooled just now.

But the words have already been said, and it is not easy to regret it immediately.

"Think about how your husband was arrested?

As long as they want, they can turn black into white, not to mention that I am just a worthless life!"

Song Tian was silent.

It seems that this person is of great importance.

"But is he the owner of this teahouse?"

There are not many people who can handle the cash flow book.

Li Yan shook his head:

"The shopkeeper is just like us, he is just a handyman. The real boss only needs to say a word..."

He quickly took a sip of the snow-capped green tea.

"That's all I have to say. Madam, please find another way. Li Yan is really powerless!"

After saying that, he clasped his fists and ran out as if escaping!

Song Tian let out a sigh of relief, feeling a deep sense of powerlessness.

Another day of no progress.

When she got home, she saw Zhang Yougui already waiting for her at home.

"A Tian, this is the head of the police station. He wants to talk to you about something."

Liu looked like she had just cried. When she saw her mother come in, she wiped her eyes with a handkerchief, stood up and said.

Song Tian greeted Captain Zhang.

Liu had to avoid it.

“Since she is Mr. Xie’s mother, there is no need for her to avoid this matter.

The magistrate will hold a trial tomorrow, and family members and friends can watch. I think you might want to go and see it."

"So fast?"

Song Tian was surprised.

Hasn't the matter been investigated yet?

Zhang Yougui also found it strange.

"Logically, we should investigate thoroughly and then re-examine the case, but the county magistrate heard that someone was killed and felt that it would have a bad impact, so he wanted to close the case as soon as possible."

"Can……"

Song Tian was about to say something else, but seeing Liu's frightened face, he didn't say anything.

"Got it. Thank you Captain Zhang for coming to let me know."

She thought the case wouldn't be brought to court so soon and was still trying to find out.

Zhang Yougui had delivered his message and stood up to say goodbye.

Song Tian went out to see him off.

After leaving the door, Zhang Yougui turned back again:

"Actually, I came to see Madam Song today to tell you something."

Song Tian quickly pricked up his ears, just in case it was good news.

Zhang Yougui looked at her like this and sighed helplessly:

"Master Xie, I'm afraid you've really run into a tough guy this time.

The owner of Xiangming Pavilion has a very secretive identity.
