Assassin peach does not change

Tao Buhuan felt that he had played the wrong role. A good-natured young girl, one of the top five assassins of the Maigulou Assassin, was actually trapped in the mansion of a court official and was forced to handle the official's funeral.

If I had known earlier, I should have brought Mrs. Zhou here earlier, otherwise I wouldn't have to wait for the funeral in mourning clothes like now.

Originally, the funeral was supposed to take seven days, but the nurse said that Zhang Nian was killed by evil spirits and died abnormally, so in order to prevent the corpse from changing, he should be buried as early as possible.

Tao Buhuan doesn't believe in ghosts and gods, but Zhang Nian's body has indeed been placed for a few days, and it is severely decomposed and already emits a foul smell.

If you don't bury it again, I'm afraid it will become moldy and hairy in this rainy weather.

Seeing the people in the courtyard busy to and fro like headless flies, and Tao Buhuan looking up at the sky in sackcloth and filial piety, he had a bad intuition.

Seeing in the distance, the dark clouds are rolling over Yuezhou City, and it may rain after the funeral.

Today she was trapped in Zhang's mansion to handle the funeral, and she didn't know how the crippled Jiang Yousi was doing now, whether she had found the real Xu Sanniang asked the truth, Tao Buchang was faintly worried.

The nanny put down Yaya to take care of Taobuchang, and Yaya cried loudly when she met Taobuchang.

Tao Buhuan frowned, thinking that this child was really an unfamiliar white-eyed wolf, who looked cute from a distance, but it was disturbing to hear the crying up close.

She caught a glimpse of the nurse directing some of the servants to plug up the dog hole under the peach tree, saying it was a draft.

The nanny's fat and white body was sweating in the sweltering heat, just like a hot bun on a steamer.

Tao Buchang pursed her lips and snickered, how much wind can leak through a broken dog hole, maybe even a dog would not want to go in this place.

But when she was a child, Jiang Yousi, that is, Jiang Qi, had a little baby fat on her face. She couldn't get tanned, and she always looked dignified and elegant, making people want to bully her.

Xu Mansion...

Jiang Yousi led Jian Jia, who had finally recovered, into the courtyard gate, and was led by the middle-aged housekeeper to the backyard.

There is a slender figure of Pingting in the backyard, and seeing her is the real Xu Sanniang, the number one female salt merchant in Yuezhou.

"Mrs. Xu, I am Jiang Yousi, the Prime Minister of Dali Temple. I am here to investigate the case of Zhang Nian, the history of salt affairs in Yuezhou. Please cooperate." Jiang Yousi said politely.

Facing different people, Jiang Youba has different interrogation strategies, and the fake Xu Sanniang looks sincere.

But after all, he came from a poor family, if the interests of the family were involved, he might have to confess truthfully;

Song Caoyun is a villain who is greedy for profit. After being coerced and lured by Tao Buhuan, he can quickly reveal the truth, and even confessed in detail about the trivial things in the past.

And when he looked at the person in front of him, his face was pale and calm, without waves or ripples, like the water in Dongting Lake, which was as clear and quiet as it could be, and he couldn't figure it out for a while.

Jiang Youbao knew that this was a difficult character to deal with.

It is not easy for a woman to become the number one female salt merchant in Yuezhou. She must have extraordinary means and a shrewd mind, both of which are indispensable.

Jian Jia knew that Jiang Yousi was kidnapped yesterday, and today she only brought herself here, so she looked around in fear.

Neither she nor Jiang Youbao knew martial arts, and she only had a small knife with an inch in her hand for dissection, so she had no way of self-defense other than that.

But Jiang Yousi didn't seem worried at all, and Jian Jia could see that she was confident and a little at ease, but she still couldn't help but look around, always on guard against accidents.

Xu Sanniang looked back at the two of them, bowed and said: "The woman pays homage to Master Jiang."

Jiang Yousi asked her bluntly: "Last night, two people kidnapped me. I interrogated the culprits. One is Xiaohua, the maid who usually pretends to be you, and the other is Song Caoyun from Yuezhou. Do you know them?"

Xu Sanniang replied: "I know..."

Jiang Youbo originally thought that she would quibble and evade, and even thought about how to interrogate her when she evaded, but she never thought that she would tell her the answer so directly and clearly.

"Did you instigate these two people to kidnap me?"

"Yes……"

This time even Jian Jia was surprised and stared at Xu Sanniang with wide eyes.

Xu Sanniang said calmly, "I thought you were just an ordinary salt merchant, and it would be no big deal if you were kidnapped, but I didn't know that you were the Tui Cheng of Dali Temple, a dignified fourth-rank official of the imperial court.

Your reputation has already spread throughout the capital, and I believe that after this case, your reputation will also spread throughout Yuezhou. "

Jiang Yousi asked: "You confessed the crime of kidnapping the imperial court official, but do you admit the crime of killing the imperial court official?"

Xu Sanniang said: "It is said that Mr. Jiang solves cases like a god. I want to hear what Mr. Jiang has found."

Jiang Youpan pondered for a while: "The story is a bit long. My foot was injured and I couldn't stand for a long time. Please ask Madam to order people to stand back and let us speak in front of the stage."

Xu Sanniang listened to her orders, and she sat in front of the stage with her as expected.

Jian Jia stood behind Jiang Youpan, listening to their conversation.

Jiang Yousi didn't seem to be interrogating a prisoner at all, but seemed to be reminiscing about old friends. She said calmly, "You have a secret room under the stage, which once imprisoned people. You have a maid, Xiao Hua, who often pretends to be It's you who will meet the guests."

"good……"

Jiang Yousi went on to say: "Although Xiaohua is a maidservant, she has gradually gotten used to her disguised identity as "Xu Sanniang" over time. She can wear the best clothes, can be arrogant to the servants of Xu's mansion, and can talk to people in Yuezhou city." The high-ranking officials and dignitaries mingled with each other, enjoying the wealth...

Later, everyone thought she was the real Xu Sanniang, and she gradually regarded herself as Xu Sanniang.

Therefore, she lied that you were seriously ill and could not see others, but in fact imprisoned you in the secret room of the stage and asked you to make salt for her and sell it. "

After Jiang Youbi finished speaking, he carefully watched Xu Sanniang's expressions and movements.

Xu Sanniang was a little taken aback at first, but after a while, the corners of her mouth curled up slightly. "Master Jiang thinks that my maidservant, Xiaohua, imprisoned me, and then colluded with Zhang Nian, Song Caoyun and others to sell smuggled salt, and finally put all the blame on me?"

When Jian Jia heard this, she felt scared.Unexpectedly, this little flower looks like an honest servant, but secretly she is a wicked servant who betrayed her master.

She imprisoned Xu Sanniang, while she pretended to enjoy the glory and wealth instead of Xu Sanniang.

If things go wrong, she can completely blame Xu Sanniang as a weak person.

This method is too vicious!

But Xu Sanniang laughed loudly after hearing this: "I thought you would be a clear-headed and sensible person, but I didn't expect you to be so stupid!"

Jiang Youpan sneered: "I know that your method of making salt is irreplaceable, that's why Zhang Nian will cooperate with you.

I am from Dali Temple, I have the right to handle the case, I can say whoever is the real culprit.

Now I've given you a way to get out, you're a smart guy and you know what to do. "

Xu Sanniang didn't expect Jiang Yousi to change the subject, as if he planned to ask for money.

She looked at Jiang Youbi quietly, "Your plan to exonerate me is to let my maid Xiaohua take the blame?"

"good……"

Jian Jia looked at Jiang Youpan in shock, as if she had never known her before.

Jiang Yousi said slowly: "It's just a mere maid, so death is not a pity. Your method of making salt is unique, and you will definitely become one of the best salt merchants in the country in the future, with a bright future."

Xu Sanniang stood up, walked in front of Jiang Youpan, and said with a blank expression, "You are all chickens of the same feather."

"Don't compare me with Zhang Nian, he is not worthy to be compared with me as a mere salt envoy." Jiang Yousi said disdainfully.

Xu Sanniang sneered: "You people never know what poor and lowly people can do to survive...

My father was originally an ordinary farmer, and he went out to sea with a fishing boat for his livelihood, and bad news came soon after.

In order to support me and my sister, my mother went to a family to work as a servant, stealing some leftovers to feed us.

Later, my mother left with that family, leaving me and my sister to fend for themselves. "

Xu Sanniang's eyes turned red when she said, "My sister and I were working as female workers in a salt household. After earning enough money, we started to work in a salt household. We developed the method of making fine salt by ourselves, but salt is hard to come by. There is no way to see the salt envoy.

Later—my sister heard that the salt envoy was lustful, so she...became his nameless side room...I just got some salt and quickly expanded the store. "

Hearing this, Jiang Yousi checked the information of Xu Sanniang's sister and the wives and concubines of the former Yuezhou salt envoy in his mind. There was indeed a foreign room, but she seemed to have died.

A fresh life is just a few words in the dossier of the household department.

Xu Sanniang stared at Jiang Youba's face and continued: "Zhang Nian is even worse than his predecessor. He not only wants me to be his concubine, but also divides [-]% of the bill from me. I really can't tolerate him anymore. Do whatever you want."

"So you sent someone to kill him?"

"I hired someone to kill him."

"Who did you hire and what method did you use?" Jiang Yousi asked.

Xu Sanniang looked up at the sky for a moment, and said: "I hired the assassin who bought the bone building—the peach is not changed."

Jiang Yousi remembered that Tao Buhuan had mentioned that her original assassination target was Zhang Nian, and it seemed that her client had been found.

But in fact, someone has already attacked before Taobuchang, and the real culprit is not Taobuchang, nor Xu Sanniang.

"I have a question..." Jiang Yousi looked up at her, "Since Zhang Niannian has been killed, why did you send someone to Yizhuang to steal the side room and the baby's body?"

Xu Sanniang said: "I didn't want their bodies, and I don't know why they died too. Maybe they saw something they shouldn't see, so they were silenced by Tao Buchang."

Jiang Yousi thought to himself: Taobuhuan once said that buying a bone building never loses money, and they won't do things like buy one and get two free.

What's more, this matter was not caused by Tao Buchang, and the murderer was someone else, so it seems that the real murderer was responsible for stealing the two corpses, not Xu Sanniang.

Why did the murderer steal the body?

Suddenly there was a sound of beating gongs and drums and playing suona outside.

Both Jiang Yousi and Jian Jia couldn't help looking at the gate behind them.

Xu Sanniang heard the sound of drums outside, and there was a gloomy smile on her calm face, as if she had fulfilled a certain wish...
