"I..." Si Qing didn't know how to answer, just when she was about to speak, Yuan Yu continued, "Xiao Yue died in such a hurry, and there were officers and soldiers present that day, I just ask you, is Xiao Yue a wanted criminal? "

"Wanted criminal?" Si Qing looked a little dazed.

"Someone under my command has seen her wanted portrait, but it's not clear. If she really looked for you, she must have mentioned this matter. If you didn't kill the person, why should you worry about telling the truth? Or... are you doing it on purpose? Cover up Min Rong?"

"I didn't!" Si Qing replied firmly.

"Si Qing! If you killed people, do you know that, it indirectly shows that you may be the murderer of Jian Min! If you do this, it is equivalent to killing five people at the same time, Min Rong Min Xian Jian Min, Xiao Yue, and yourself! But let the real murderer of Jian Min go!"

"Stop it!! Stop it!" Si Qing's face was pale, as if the things of the past two days had accumulated in her body in an instant, she collapsed and fell to the ground.

Even the candlestick she cared about the most was thrown on the ground, no further questioning.

"Si Qing! If I don't speak clearly today, I will not be able to find out the truth! I will arrest you, and you will be escorted to the capital to die with Min Rong. If this is what you want, you can directly Say, you are the murderer! Let's all save trouble!" Yuan Yan's tone was not serious, but He Yao didn't understand how she induced people to admit that she had killed someone.

Wanting to stop her, Yuan Yan stretched out his hand to stop her from speaking, shook her head at her, and continued to say to Si Qing, "I promise you, you are different from Min Rongsheng, since you love him, I also intend to fulfill him." .”

"No... no need... I... all my life... I will only be husband and wife with Min Xian... For Min Xian, I can't admit that I am a murderer. Besides, I didn't kill anyone at all! Killing people pays for their lives, even if they don't pay back in this life, in the next life, I still want to be entangled! I don't want to meet them again! I only owe Min Xian the truth... I only owe him a bride!" Si Qing said, as if she had made up her mind, and threw the two pairs of candlesticks into the heavy rain.

The candlesticks jingled in the rain, and after the silence, Si Qing lowered her head and said softly, "Xiao Yue, it was indeed Min Rong who killed her."

He Yao didn't believe it, but he didn't believe that Si Qing was the murderer, so he could only continue to listen to her. "On the night of Xiao Yue's death, she seemed to have a premonition that something would happen to her. She found me and told me her background. She lived in a brothel when she was young, received customers for three years, and then was redeemed by someone because it was difficult to accept Because of this, she became a wanted criminal at a young age, hiding everywhere, unable to turn over! Until she was arrested and brought to justice, someone took her out of the prison and said that she killed She is the one who deserves to be killed, and should not pay the price for this matter. Then she was recognized as a goddaughter, and she was dedicated to education, and let her carry five stones in different identities to go out of various houses. She did not refuse because her life was saved by her godfather What's more, she has never been treated badly, and she has become addicted to Wushisan invisibly. It is difficult to cure this kind of thing, so she has to take various pills to suppress it. One day, she has Another mission, come to Xining Village, use all means to find the Jade Thread Gold Belt Pillow."

"Did she find it?" He Yan asked.

"It's just a legend! No one can find it! In recent years, many people have lost their lives because of this. For an illusory treasure, they lost their lives! Xiao Yue agreed to marry Min Rong because it was convenient to do things after marriage, but She is not a virgin, she can only use different reasons to prevaricate this matter, but Min Rong never said it out. On the day the official came, she happened to meet Xiao Yue on the road. Xiao Yue knew that her identity was revealed, so Min Rong couldn’t forgive herself. Although she doesn’t love Min Rong, they are husband and wife after all. So I beg you to forgive her, because she took too much medicine and it was counterproductive, and time is running out, even though she occupied Min Rong for a while, she knew she would have to return it, so she brought money to make it up to me." Si Qing Said, actually laughed.

"I didn't think what she said was true at the time! I thought she made it up to lie to me again! She left after she finished speaking. I thought for a long time at home and felt wrong, so I hurried to Min's house. At that time It was night, and the rest time was early in the mountains. When I went, the Min family was already asleep. I went directly to her door, but I heard the noise in the house. I didn’t dare to go in at this moment, for fear of causing misunderstanding, so I waited quietly for a while, and then, I heard the inside suddenly quiet down, and I felt something was wrong. I hurriedly opened the door and went in, only to see Min Rong passed out on the ground, with a box of Wushisan on the table, Xiao Yue Lying on the bed, holding her chest with her hands, the candlestick was stuck in her chest, she didn't dare to pull it out, and she didn't dare to move, I saw that she was still moving, so naturally I couldn't ignore it, so I hurried over, but saw that Xiao Yue was no longer breathing, I looked at Min Rong, and I still had him in my heart at the time. Xiao Yue was dead, and Min Rong was going to take his life. I subconsciously wanted to protect Min Rong, so I thought Xiao Yue was dead, so I hurriedly wanted to take the candlestick away. Go, I was in a hurry at the time, I just felt that taking away the murder weapon made it an unsolved case, I tried my best to be careful when I pulled out the candlestick, but Xiao Yue hadn't died yet, she seemed very puzzled when she saw it was me, and I didn't dare to speak, so I had to force myself I pulled out the candlestick because Xiao Yue kept protecting her chest, so the blood didn't splash on me. I took a few steps back in panic, and Xiao Yue stretched out her hand to face me, and died with regret. Thinking about it so far, although I didn't Killing her, but not saving her, every time I come to Min's house, I will think of that scene, and it makes me terrified."

He Yao nodded, "Then you stole the key and put a pair of candlesticks in the wooden house until the government swept away all the belongings in the house?"

"Yes, after I hid the candlestick, I knew that I couldn't hide this matter. If I didn't ask, Min Rong would die, so I just pretended to arrive at the scene and yelled. After all the people arrived, Min Rong Yong immediately asked Min Xian to invite the barefoot doctor. Seeing that the couple had died and the other was injured, he thought something had happened. He was attracted. One of the officials immediately rode down the mountain, and he couldn't be stopped. In fact, if he had been stopped at the beginning, the two officials would have been killed by the villagers."

"One more thing, have you seen the wooden man in Min Rong's hut? Was it your seal?" Yuan Xi asked.

"He didn't allow anyone to touch Min Rong's things. When I went to recycle the candlesticks later, I noticed the wood. The person he was thinking about was Xiao Yue. The engraving was very new. I think he wanted to engrave a statue for Xiao Yue. The portrait, because of Xiao Yue's past, was furious, so the wooden figure was given to..."

Yuan Yu stroked her chin, and said thoughtfully, "You said Min Rong liked Xiao Yue, did Min Rong really never like you?"

"Min Rong...Min Rong is not very enthusiastic towards me. He doesn't care much about the way he looks at me. He is more suspicious. When he sees who I am with, he just says that I am friendly with them, regardless of age." Si Qing Speaking of.

Yuan Yu continued to ask, "If he can be jealous, it means that he has you in his heart. Did you do something unseen to make Min Rong hurt?"

Si Qing shook her head affirmatively, "Since I was young, I know his nature and I am not close to all men. Even Min Xian, I won't say a word, but after Min Ronghui's marriage, as long as he pursues me, I don't even refuse."

"So, Min Rong is indeed guilty of being imprisoned! Then why does the Min family insist on opposing the case?"

"Because they don't believe that Min Rong killed his wife, because they probably think that the murderer is me. Jian Min has always suspected me, but because of Min Xian's face, he didn't tell me directly. Jian Min found me in private and said that she knew that I had a grudge against her and Xiao Yue. In my heart, but I shouldn't kill the husband and wife. If I marry Min Xian, I will harm Min Xian. They come to persuade me to quit the engagement. I don't hate her, nor am I afraid of her. I just want to avoid her and go away , she is the elder sister-in-law, I can only deal with it like this."

"So... the night Jian Min disappeared, you met her? Didn't you? She persuaded you to surrender, right?"

"Yes! I did meet her in that yard. She told me that I would never escape the punishment of God. She knew that I was the murderer. Although there was no evidence, she said that Mr. Yuan would find out about it. If I choose to remain silent, and she will tell me about my suspicions the next day. She will also ask Min Xian to withdraw the engagement. Moreover, Jian Min told me one more thing." Si Qing seemed to have suddenly remembered something, The voice raised a little.

Yuan Yu immediately said, "Jian Min came to me because she wanted to find out the real culprit, and, most importantly, because she wanted to save her husband from suffering?"

"I don't know about this, but Jian Min asked me about Min Yong and Minxian's condition when she was not at home. They were always at home, because they were inconvenient to move, and I took care of the housework. Asked me and no strangers came, and I also said No."

"So peaceful?"

"That's not the case. Occasionally at night, the dogs at the entrance of the village will bark. Usually, someone sneaked into the village, but there is no trace to follow. Because of the legend, there are many people who want to steal in the middle of the night, but when they enter the village, they find that the village is full of people like In the ancient tomb, some timid ones left, some bold ones entered the yard, and some were sick from fright. So even if someone came, we didn’t care, because there is nothing valuable to steal in the village.”

"It seems that the cause of Jian Min's death has gradually become clear." Yuan Yu sighed and stood up.
