The Dark and Foolish King: The Fierce and Crazy Concubine Has Infinite Strength
Chapter 293 Qu Xiaoyou's Despair
Qian Shun has always been honest and kind, and has never done anything wrong. But compared with the life of his beloved son, his kindness seems so pale and powerless.
Not surprisingly, Qian Shun accepted the money and issued a false death certificate to the prefect at the time, which indirectly led to a wrongful conviction of fourteen years for the arson case.
Afterwards, Qian Shun's son's illness was cured, but Qian Shun was left with a broken heart.
He knew very well how serious the consequences were brought about by that piece of light paper: the innocent maid was tortured into confessing and then executed; the real murderer gained fame and fortune and lived a carefree life; the mother and son who died tragically had no way to go to heaven or to hell.
After all, Qian Shun was an honest man who had been kind all his life. He felt extremely guilty about what he had done and could not sleep well day or night.
Over time, his health gradually deteriorated and he died within two years.
He also thought about changing his mind after his son recovered from his illness and going to the county government to tell the truth.
But his words were of little importance and he was afraid that the master would not believe him. Anyway, he angered Qu Zhengyan and brought disaster to the whole family.
So, he backed off for the safety of his family.
But he could not resist the condemnation of his conscience, so before his death he wrote a letter of identification and the real autopsy report by himself and gave them to his wife for secret safekeeping.
Qian Shun explained to his wife that there is no perfect crime in the world and that the man would be exposed sooner or later.
If someone comes to him in the future and says they want to reinvestigate the maid arson case, he will ask her to first find out the other party's identity and power.
If the visitor is powerful enough to overthrow the rich and powerful Qu Zhengyan, let his wife give these two things to them.
If the other party is just an ordinary person, then even if they get the evidence, they can't do anything to Qu Zhengyan, so just ignore them for the time being to avoid bringing harm to yourself.
The wife followed her husband's last words and kept the secret and evidence for fourteen years.
After listening to her story, Lu Xiuyuan and others couldn't help but sigh. Qian Shun was originally a kind person, but there is only one disease in this world, and that is "poverty".
Faced with kindness and the life of one's own son, I'm afraid everyone in the world would make the same choice as Qian Shun.
"So, his guilt is confirmed, right?" Qu Xiaoyou stared at the two neatly folded papers in Lu Xiuyuan's hands, tears welling up in her eyes. One can imagine how she felt in her heart.
Xia Younan patted her shoulder, took the paper from Lu Xiuyuan's hand, and opened it carefully.
This is Qian Shun's confession, which clearly explains how he was bribed by Qu Zhengyan and how he made a false certificate in a moment of confusion.
At the very end of the paper there is his autograph and a red handprint, which makes it 100% credible.
Xia Younan unfolded another one, which was the autopsy report. It was written in great detail, and was completely different from the one in the government office.
The deceased: Liu Zhenzhen, Qu Shengyi
Autopsy results: internal organs were rotten, and a large amount of highly toxic drugs were found in the stomach. The nostrils and mouth were clean, and no thick smoke entered. The two people had stopped breathing before the fire.
Cause of death: poisoning!
Xia Younan frowned as he watched, and the despair and helplessness of Liu Zhenzhen and her son when they were poisoned seemed to emerge in his mind, which was really terrifying.
Qu Zhengyan! Even a tiger won't eat its own cubs, but you killed your wife and children. You are worse than a snake, a scorpion, or a beast!
After reading it, Xia Younan couldn't bear it and handed the autopsy report to Qu Xiaoyou.
She was the one who most needed to know the final outcome of this matter, whether she could accept it or not.
Qu Xiaoyou took the autopsy report with trembling hands. Just a quick glance at it was enough to make her heart tremble.
After listening to Li Qiu's words, Qu Xiaoyou admitted that she was suspicious, but she still deceived herself in her heart, saying that it was just Li Qiu's one-sided statement and there was no evidence to prove that her father was the murderer.
Even later when she asked her father to do a blood test with Ren Xiaole to recognize their relationship, she still lied to herself and said that maybe her father had just cheated on her and it wasn't necessarily him who killed her mother and brother.
But now... every word on the paper in front of her burned into her eyes like a red-hot iron.
And Qian Shun's signature and bright red handprint below seemed to be mocking her mercilessly: Stop deceiving yourself, this is irrefutable evidence!
"Ah!"
Qu Xiaoyou suddenly laughed, and that laugh sounded like the sad cry of the last wild goose that had not yet migrated in winter, making a single sound in the sky.
Sad, dreadful, desperate, creepy...
One syllable is enough to make people heartbroken.
"Xiao You..." Xia Younan's nerves were tense, fearing that something might happen to her under such stimulation.
"Cough..." Qu Xiaoyou looked like a madman. She was smiling when suddenly a mouthful of blood flowed out of her mouth, which was particularly glaring on her pale clothes and lips.
"Xiaoyou!" Xia Younan shouted in horror, and Zenmu, who was closest to her, went to support her.
Just as he held Qu Xiaoyou's shoulders, Qu Xiaoyou seemed unable to bear the blow any longer. She closed her eyes and fainted in his arms.
Chanmu's brows were furrowed as if water could be squeezed out of them. He picked her up by the waist and said to Xia Younan, "I'll send her to the inn where we stayed before. I'll go to the government office to find you when she wakes up."
"Okay, go quickly and find a doctor to see her." Xia Younan warned worriedly.
Chanmu agreed and ran out holding the pale-faced Qu Xiaoyou.
"Damn Qu Zhengyan, as a human being, how could he do such a heartless and worse thing than pigs and dogs?" Xia Younan was so angry that his whole body was shaking and his teeth were chattering.
If Qu Zhengyan was in front of her now, he would probably have been torn into pieces by her.
"Let's go to the government office and ask the prefect to arrest him!"
The group left Qian's house angrily with anger in their hearts and went straight to the county government office.
"Big Boss, Your Majesty!"
They had not walked far when they saw Zhu Li and Xiong Fei, who were out playing, running towards them happily, followed by two familiar figures.
One of the two people was an elderly woman with silver-gray hair and a haggard face. Her already skinny body looked as if she had experienced some kind of devastation again, and she was so exhausted that she seemed like she would fall down if the wind blew.
Next to the woman was a tall and thin young man, about 20 or 30 years old, with thick eyebrows, big eyes, and a sharp face, looking very energetic.
His dark-colored robe was torn in several places, and he walked unsteadily, as if he had been in a fight with someone and was seriously injured because he was not as skilled as the other person.
"Boss, look who we met?" Zhu Li quickened his pace with great interest, and asked Xia Younan for credit with an excited look on his face.
Xia Younan couldn't help but be overjoyed when looking at the two people, and exclaimed: "It's Chen Yi's mother, and... Chen Yi!"
That’s right, Lu Shian had shown them a portrait of Chen Yi. The young man who was helping Chen’s mother walk was exactly the target they were looking for, Chen Yi!
