517. Chapter 517

For some reason, although Wen Zhao only asked Guan Wu a few questions, Wei Zheng felt an unusual aura from it. Maybe there is something hidden in this case.

Moreover, Wei Zheng suddenly felt that his own lord was able to lay a great foundation from the head of the Qian, the southern and northern wars, and he was by no means an ordinary person.

Would such a person ask Guan Wu some irrelevant questions? Apparently not!

And through a series of policies in Guanzhong, it can be seen that Chen Xu is more inclined to the Legalists and cherishes the people very much. Generally speaking, such a person will never abolish the public for personal reasons.

Wen Zhao came to Guan Wu's side and continued to ask, "You have been away from home for a long time, and your father has been dead for half a year. For such a long time, it stands to reason that Zheng Tu scolded your father for a few words, which should have been forgotten long ago. ”

"After you returned to the township, where did you learn about Zheng Tu's insult to your family?"

Guan Wu was stunned for a moment and said: "I only heard about this occasionally, so I secretly visited and learned about Zheng Tu's insult to the family. ”

Wen Zhao asked again step by step: "I heard what people said, who did you listen to?" Where did you hear about Zheng Tu scolding your family? ”

Guan Wu hesitated for a moment and said, "I overheard Guan Xiong mention this matter, and then I made an unannounced visit to the village, and several families also said about it. ”

Chen Xu continued to ask: "Then do you know who saw Zheng Tu insulting your family with their own eyes?" ”

Yesterday, Wen Zhao went to visit Zheng Tu's home, and after hearing about Zheng Tu's deeds, he found that Zheng Tu was indeed a character. And through the scrutiny of Zheng Tu's character, Wen Zhao felt that this case was a little strange.

According to Zheng Tu's character, although this person is not a submissive person, he is also quite bold, not a person with a small belly.

At the beginning, because the people of Guanjia Village squeezed him, Zheng Tucai had a bad relationship with the people of Guanjia Village. Later, the two sides reconciled, and Zheng Tu never had a conflict with the people of Guanjia Village again.

Especially after Wen Zhao asked Zheng's mother, he was even more puzzled in his heart. According to Zheng's mother, he did hear others say that his son insulted Guan's father, but he had never seen it with his own eyes, let alone heard Zheng Tu mention it.

It's just that many people say so, and Zheng's mother believes it.

Chen Xu felt that since Zheng Tu was a pure filial person, even if Guan Wu had found someone to beat him at that time, he would not insult the elderly Guan's father.

After repeated secret visits and scrutiny, Wen Zhao found some clues. To understand the crux of this case, it is necessary to find the witness who saw Zheng Tu insulting Guan's father in the first place.

Guan Wu said: "Although many people have only heard about this matter, but everyone says so, this matter must be true. What's more, when the family was scolded for buying meat, Guan Xiong happened to be next to him. ”

"If someone hadn't seen Zheng Tu scolding his family with their own eyes, the criminals wouldn't have rushed to kill people and committed such a serious crime."

Wen Zhao asked step by step: "Then do you know that apart from Guan Xiong, is there anyone else who has seen Zheng Tu insult your family?" ”

Guan Wu thought for a while, and then said: "Not every household has the extra money to buy meat, so before Zheng Tu's meat stall, it was not a good place. When the family went to buy meat, only Guan Xiong was present. ”

Chen Xu pretended to think carefully for a while, but his eyes were secretly looking at Guan Xiong, who was forcibly recruited by Li Kui to testify.

He did not interrogate Guan Xiong immediately, but continued to question Guan Wu: "I heard that the reason why Zheng Tu insulted your family is because he was beaten by you at the beginning. Since you are a neighbor, why did you lead someone to beat him? ”

Guan Wudao: "Because the clan brother had a quarrel with Zheng Tu, Zheng Tu relied on his physical strength to injure the clan brother and couldn't get out of bed for half a month." He dealt so hard, he naturally wanted to seek justice for his brother. ”

Wen Zhao suddenly said sharply: "Then since Zheng Tu hurt people, why don't you report to the official?" ”

After hesitating for a moment, Guan Wucai said: "The cause of this matter is also that the clan brother is wrong, he thinks that Zheng Tu is an outsider, so he often goes to find trouble." ”

"That time, the clan brother accidentally pushed down Zheng's mother, and Zheng Tu only shot to hurt people, if it wasn't for the clansmen who went to help, I'm afraid the clan brother would have been killed."

"In the final analysis, we don't care about this matter, so I only beat Zheng Tu lightly, suppressed this matter, and did not expand it."

Wen Zhao turned his head to Zheng Mu and asked, "Is Guan Wu's words true?" ”

Zheng's mother replied, "That's true. ”

"Then after Zheng Tu was beaten, why didn't he report to the official?"

Zheng's mother said: "My son thinks that this is Guanjia Village after all, and it would be best if we, as outsiders, could calm things down." If you really want to completely fall out with the local people in Guanjia Village, I am afraid that there will be no peace in the future. ”

It was Guan Wu who once promised that he would help resolve the rejection of the local people in Guanjia Village from outsiders. And for the previous conflict, no longer caring, my son is willing to swallow his anger, unwilling to continue the grudge. ”

At this point, almost everyone felt that something was wrong. Since Zheng Tu was willing to swallow his anger in order to resolve his grudges, how could he take the initiative to provoke and insult Guan's father later?

It must be known that although Father Guan is not a figure in the village, his son Guan Wu is very powerful, and basically no one dares to provoke him. Zheng Tu insulted Guan's father, so he was not afraid of another dispute in the future and provoked Guan Wu to retaliate?

At this point, the original very clear case has become a little confusing. Xie County's eyes narrowed slightly, and his eyes were on the bodies of the witnesses in the county office, slowly swimming.

Wen Zhao didn't continue to ask, just closed his eyes and thought. After a while, he suddenly opened his eyes and asked Guan Wu, "Who is the person who was injured by Zheng Tu?" ”

Since this case is being investigated, Wen Zhao has naturally inquired about the identity of that person a long time ago. However, in the public court, he wanted to ask the matter clearly.

Without the slightest hesitation, Guan Wu said: "That person is the clan brother Guan Xiong. ”

For the ancients, as long as they have the same surname in a village and have the same generation, they are all clan brothers and clan brothers. In fact, there is no blood relationship between Guan Wu and Guan Xiong in recent generations.

"Guan Xiong, it's Guan Xiong again."

Wei Zheng's heart moved, and he couldn't help but start admiring Chen Xu. He didn't expect that a character who was so deeply hidden would be dug up by his own father-in-law.

Judging from the previous clues, Guan Xiong has always been in this matter. And what role did this person play in the case?

Suddenly, Wen Zhao strode to Guan Xiong's side, pointed at him and shouted, "Guan Xiong, are you guilty? ”
