daughter-in-law next door

Not long after, the two men were pulled up by the yamen servants.

"Gao Mingde, Zhao Liang, are you convicted?" Xu Zhi, the county magistrate, shouted loudly, slapping the gavel, revealing his majesty.

Su Jinshi looked indifferently at the two men kneeling on the ground, only today did he realize that their names were Gao Mingde and Zhao Liang.

Mingde, Zhao Liang.

Ha ha, the name is very honest.

"The two of us do not plead guilty! We have not committed a crime!" Gao Mingde said loudly, and after he finished speaking, he turned to look at Lu Ning with provocation in his eyes.

Xu Zhi slapped the gavel again, pointed at the two people and said, "Have you not pleaded guilty yet? Now that the sixth prince has come out to testify against you, why don't you confess quickly!"

Su Jinshi frowned, looked at the two kneeling people, did not speak, but felt an inexplicable worry in his heart.

Sure enough, the kneeling Zhao Liang smiled and said: "The two of us have never met the sixth prince, so how can we correct you?"

After hearing this, Xu Zhi smiled coldly, "Could it be that the sixth prince will still slander you?"

Zhao Liang drifted past Ning Xifeng from the corner of his eye, and snorted coldly, "If there is no evidence, we will not plead guilty."

After finishing speaking, Zhao Liang also looked at Tang Yaxin who was standing aside, and a gesture of victory flashed in his eyes. Tang Yaxin's face turned pale when she saw her, and her lips were tightly pursed.

Su Jinshi looked at the two people kneeling on the ground, and felt that they were indescribably strange.

It was obvious that the sixth prince in front of them was the current sixth prince, but these two people were not afraid at all. Instead, they calmly used their lack of evidence to justify themselves.

If it's not that they are hopelessly stupid, then they have a background, and this background may be bigger than the sixth prince.

Judging from their appearance, they don't seem to be hopelessly stupid.

Su Jinshi looked at Ning Xifeng, seeing that he was also a little confused, so he suppressed the doubts in his heart.

"My lord, if your lord has no evidence to prove that we have committed such a thing, can you let us go home first?" Gao Mingde looked directly at Xu Zhi, his tone a little arrogant.

Xu Zhi glanced at Ning Xifeng, saw him nodded slightly, so he had to pat the gavel, and said, "If that's the case, you two should leave. If relevant evidence is obtained in the future, you will still be summoned. Here."

Xu Zhi paused, then said coldly: "You two, get ready."

Gao Mingde and Zhao Liang got up immediately, patted the ashes on their knees, and said with a smile: "Your Excellency is waiting for you over there."

After speaking, the two looked at Ning Xifeng and the others again, and left with a smile.

Since the identity of the sixth prince was made public, Xu Zhi was too embarrassed to let them live in that inn again, so he simply invited a few of them to the guest room in his house.

The trial started in a mighty manner, but nothing came out, and the crowd of onlookers dispersed in a rush.

Xu Zhi smiled in embarrassment, did not speak, welcomed several people into the mansion, arranged their respective rooms, and then called several people to the study to discuss matters.

Several people arrived at the study room, Xu Zhi first saluted Ning Xifeng, and then sighed: "Those two people don't feel any guilt at all, they are really stubborn."

Ning Xifeng frowned and didn't speak. Seeing this, Xu Zhi also fell silent.

"Is there someone behind Gao Mingde and Zhao Liang protecting them?" Tang Mingze said suddenly.

Several people didn't speak. In fact, they all had this suspicion in their hearts, but they didn't say it because of the sixth prince here.

If there is someone behind them who can make the two of them challenge in front of the Sixth Prince, then the identity of the person behind them will at least not be lower than that of the Sixth Prince...

If this is the case, the scope will be reduced a lot, but there is no one in the small circle that they can afford.

"We need to find out the evidence, otherwise it will be difficult to stop Youyou's mouth." Ning Xifeng said in a deep voice.

"Well, it's hard to find evidence. Now that we are in the clear, they will definitely send those girls away." Tang Mingze said.

"Since it is already in the clear, why don't we look for those girls with great fanfare? Maybe some of those girls will come out to testify against them, and the previous case of dismemberment can also be dealt with seriously, since the sixth prince is already here , These cases naturally need to be thoroughly investigated, even if no further progress can be made, it is good to scare the murderer."

Su Jinshi suddenly said, her voice was deep and deep, "The more afraid you are, the more you will show your feet."

Ning Xifeng glanced at Su Jinshi, and there was a look of admiration in his eyes, "I think so too, but it's not clear whether the murderer can be scared, but who is the murderer in the case of dismembering the corpse? guess."

Ning Xifeng paused, looked at Xu Zhi, with a stern look in his eyes, "Xu Zhi, the people in this yamen and the people in this mansion must never be trusted."

Hearing this, Xu Zhi's face was complicated, but he still nodded with a serious expression. He bowed to Ning Xifeng again, with a heavy voice, "The case in Lancheng has been closed for a long time, and the magistrate has changed a few times. No one has been able to solve the case, and the people are increasingly distrusting the court, I only hope that the sixth prince can solve the case this time."

Ning Xifeng didn't answer, but Tang Mingze smiled and said, "It's natural."

Xu Zhi seemed to have taken a reassurance, and he was confident enough, "I will follow the sixth prince from now on, as long as the sixth prince orders, I will definitely do it."

Ning Xifeng nodded, "Go to the brothel in this city first and ask which girls were redeemed by Gao Mingde and Zhao Liang, it is best to send a few people, as soon as there is news, go directly to those girls, if you find them Now, take it back to the mansion first."

Xu Zhi nodded heavily, and immediately went down to give orders.

Ning Xifeng raised his eyes, looked at the window next to him as if nothing had happened, and did not speak.

Su Jinshi suddenly picked up the pen and paper on the table, wrote a few words, and handed it to Ning Xifeng.

Ning Xifeng opened the paper, and there were a few words written on it:

Is someone eavesdropping.

Su Jinshi didn't use a question mark, Ning Xifeng nodded slightly, and the Tang brothers and sisters also walked over to read the content on the paper, and subconsciously glanced around slightly after reading it.

"Okay, let's go back and rest first." Lu Ning said a little tiredly.

He crushed the piece of paper that Su Jinshi gave him, squeezed it in his hands, and pushed the door open.

The few remaining people glanced at each other and went back to their rooms. After returning to the room, Su Jinshi still felt weird.

Just when they were about to find out the murderer of the dismemberment case, this case suddenly appeared. This case was like a branch of the main case, leading them to the other side.

They are now fully focused on this case, and the dismemberment case seems to have been forgotten suddenly...

This thought made Su Jinshi's heart skip a beat.

Is it intentional?

If it was intentional, then Tang Yaxin must have been used, just to protect the murderer of the dismemberment case?

Could it be that the murder case and the mastermind behind this case are the same person?

With this thought, Su Jinshi felt chills all over his body. The master knew their every move, the relationship between Tang Yaxin and Ning Xifeng, and Tang Yaxin's character...

If you think about it carefully, they seem to have been expected to take this path from the very beginning of the case.

Meaning, what they did was expected?

Su Jinshi gasped, she went out immediately, and pushed Nian Su's room away, only to see that Nian Su was mending clothes for Xiaodouzi, while Xiaodouzi was quietly practicing calligraphy by the desk.

Her restless heart suddenly calmed down a little, but her face was still ugly.

Seeing that Su Jin came, Nian Su put down what she was doing, and was about to speak when she saw sweat on her face, so she asked, "What's wrong? Why is it so hot?"

Saying that, Nian Su took Su Jinshi's hand, but felt that her hand was very cold, and then she realized that Su Jinshi's expression was very strange.

"Jinshi, what happened? Your hands are so cold." Nian Su warmed Su Jinshi's with his own.

Su Jinshi felt warmth coming from her palm, and the warmth spread through her whole body through her hands. She smiled with a hoarse voice: "It's okay, Susu, I'm fine."

Nian Su was silent, nodded, she pulled Su Jinshi to sit down, poured her a glass of water, Su Jinshi held the water glass, took a sip, and felt that his body gradually returned to normal.

Xiaodouzi at the side was practicing calligraphy, and when he saw Su Jinshi coming, he said, "Aunt Jinshi, can you see if my writing is correct?"

Xiaodouzi's eyes were clear, and his small face had a serious expression. Su Jinshi smiled, walked up to Xiaodouzi, and read what he wrote:

Benevolence, righteousness, propriety, wisdom and faith.

These five words are easy to write, but very difficult to do. Su Jinshi thought of Gao Mingde and Zhao Liang in court today.

Su Jinshi squatted down, stretched out his hand to touch Xiaodouzi's head, and praised: "Xiaodouzi's writing is very good, but although these five characters are easy to write, it is not easy to do."

Xiaodouzi tilted his head and said, "Can Aunt Jin Shi explain the meaning of these five words?"

"The benevolence means that when we do things, we should not only consider our own feelings, but also consider others and take care of each other. Righteousness means to help others when they are in trouble. Li means to be kind to others. Be polite, no matter how rude the other party is, you must give the other party basic respect."

Xiaodouzi opened his eyes wide and nodded while listening to her.

"This kind of wisdom requires you to think more from everyday things, and faith requires us to be honest and trustworthy." Su Jinshi said politely.

At the end, she said, "Little Douzi, we may meet many rude people in the future. I just hope you don't become like them because of your anger. Respect for others is a basic courtesy."

Xiaodouzi nodded half-understood, then smiled, "I see, Aunt Jin Shi."

Su Jinshi patted Xiaodouzi's head again, and said with a smile, "Good boy."

After thinking about it, she still felt that she should tell Ning Xifeng her conjecture. Now no one knows who the mastermind behind that is targeting, and they are all in danger.

Having made up her mind, she stood up and wanted to leave, when she suddenly saw Xiaodouzi practicing calligraphy in a serious manner, and Niansu mending clothes with a gentle face, she suddenly felt her nose sore.

What should I do if I can never see her again in such a situation?

Just thinking about it, Su Jinshi felt a twinge in her heart, and she shook her head.

Nothing like this will happen.

She doesn't allow this to happen either.
