Chapter 211: A Secret Story.

After Hua Lang said this, he immediately observed Lu Gui's expression, and after Lu Gui listened to Hua Lang's words, he was immediately angry, and said: "This Tian Lao Liu, in vain our Lu family took care of him so much, he actually did the thing of chicken and dog theft, and stole my family's jade pendant, it is really hateful." ”

Lu Gui said that he was angry, it didn't seem to be pretending, Bao Zheng and the others didn't know what to say for a while when they saw this, if this blood plum blossom jade was really something from Lu Mansion, then Tian Lao Liu was killed, it must have something to do with the secrecy of Lu Mansion.

At this time, Hua Lang smiled faintly: "Since Gongzi Lu said that this jade pendant is something from your Lu Mansion, it will be easy to do, you can go back." ”

Lu Gui was surprised for a while, and hurriedly said: "This thing is my Lu Mansion's thing, shouldn't it be returned to its original owner?" ”

The corners of Hua Lang's mouth rose slightly, and said: "This is the evidence of the murder case, and it can only be dealt with after the case is over, so you can go back first." ”

Lu Gui was a little unhappy, but he had no choice but to go back.

But after Lu Gui left, Hua Lang hurriedly said to Bao Zheng: "Brother Bao, it seems that there is indeed something shady in Lu Mansion, we must send someone to investigate clearly." ”

Bao Zheng nodded slightly: "I'll send someone to investigate to see if there is anything special happening in the Lu Mansion, or if anyone has died in recent years." ”

Although it is a bit troublesome to investigate the old things, it is not without a trace, so in the evening of this day, those officials hurried back to the county office, and after the officials rushed back, they immediately reported: "Lord Hui, we have investigated clearly, a year ago, there was a maid Xiaoyu in Lu Mansion who hanged herself. ”

When everyone heard this, although they were a little excited, they were also a little embarrassed, how should they investigate what happened a year ago?

Everyone set their eyes on Hua Lang, Hua Lang can perform an autopsy or a bone exam, why not let him examine Xiaoyu's body?

Hua Lang was like this, so he had to say: "Since this is the case, then open the coffin for an autopsy!" ”

Everyone was excited, but before the coffin was opened, the consent of Xiaoyu's family must be obtained, so they went to Xiaoyu's home, and Hua Lang and Bao Zheng also had some things to ask them.

It was a small village outside the city, surrounded by a large number of trees, at this time the winter snow had not melted, a hint of wind blew, the snow on the trees fell one by one, so scary, there was a line of footprints on the forest path, the footprints were not very big, it looked like a woman's footprints, they followed the footprints, came to Xiaoyu's home.

The courtyard is lonely, the snow in front of the door has been swept, a few old hens are pecking in the courtyard, making clucking sounds from time to time, there is a woman in the room, at this time is mending her clothes, she is already very old, the back of her hand is horizontal, her eyes are not very good, and she has not entered the needle for a long time.

Seeing this scene, everyone suddenly felt a kind of grief in their hearts, Bao Zheng couldn't bear it anymore, knocked on the door a few times, and asked, "Is there anyone?" ”

The woman raised her head and saw Bao Zheng's swarthy face, and suddenly burst into tears, and said, "Are you Lord Bao?" ”

Bao Zheng and the others entered the courtyard and nodded: "I am Bao Zheng." ”

As soon as Bao Zheng finished saying this, the old woman knelt down, and Bao Zheng hurriedly stepped forward to help, saying, "The old woman doesn't have to make such a big gift, we came today to inquire about something." ”

The old lady nodded slightly, but she didn't know what Bao Zheng was going to ask.

Everyone sat down in the house, and Bao Zheng said: "We suspect that your daughter Xiaoyu died strangely, so we want to open the coffin for an autopsy, I wonder if the old woman agreed?" ”

The old woman's tears had not yet been wiped dry, and after listening to Bao Zheng's words, she suddenly began to cry and said: "Master Bao, I know that you are a clean official, and I know that my daughter Xiaoyu will not find a short-term vision, someone must be persecuting her, but I am an old woman, and I am really powerless to sue." ”

Everyone was a little moved when they heard this, and at this time, the old woman continued: "As long as Master Bao can give justice to the little girl, I agree to open the coffin for an autopsy. ”

The discussion of the opening of the coffin and the autopsy did not encounter much obstruction, which was very fortunate for everyone, and then, Hua Lang looked at the old woman and asked, "Your daughter Xiaoyu is working in the Lu Mansion, has she told you about the Lu Mansion when she goes home?" ”

The old woman shook her head: "My daughter, she is very stubborn, she has never been wronged outside and never told me, but a few days before she died, she came back and told me that she didn't want to do it in Lu Mansion, I asked her what she was doing, she didn't answer, and I was forced to ask me in a hurry, so I ran out, alas, I really regretted it, if I promised her at that time, there would be no later things." ”

Everyone sighed, but they were helpless, in this world, where is there regret medicine?

It's just that although the old woman said the grief, Hualang and others can't experience it personally, after all, the joys and sorrows of a person's life are their own, and others are always just spectators.

Although the old woman promised to let Bao Zheng open the coffin for an autopsy, it was not suitable for an autopsy if it was too late today, so everything had to wait until tomorrow, so they rushed back to the county office for the time being.

Back at the county office, Bao Zheng and they interrogated Lu Fu, they wanted to know some things about Xiaoyu from Lu Fu's mouth, but Lu Fu heard Bao Zheng ask about Xiaoyu, but he couldn't say anything, just said that Xiaoyu hanged himself, and he didn't know anything else.

Hua Lang glanced at Lu Fu and said coldly: "Then you should always know why Lu Dao Xiaoyu hanged herself, right?" ”

Lu Fu looked at Hua Lang, his eyes looked weird, and after a long time, he shook his head: "I don't know!" ”

Bao Zheng was very angry when he couldn't ask anything from Lu Fu, and he wanted to beat him up to get angry, but he felt that this reason was a little unreasonable, and he had to let the jailer take him to the prison.

In the middle of the night, there was a crescent moon in the sky, and the clear moonlight shone down on the earth, making everyone feel a little cold.

The lights on the street had been turned off, and it was late when Hua Lang and the others left from the county office.

It was even colder in the prison, several prisoners snuggled up to each other to keep warm, and from time to time there were a few foul mouths, Lu Fu huddled in the corner of the prison, trembling all over, but there was hatred all over his eyes, but although this hatred was strong, it also dissipated quickly, and when his eyes were irrelevant, he couldn't help but sigh, as if he thought of something, and as if he didn't think about anything.

At this time, the lights were still on in the Lu Mansion, and a thin old man was walking around in his house, and every step he took was a sigh, and his son Lu Gui stood aside, but he was a little disdainful, as if this old man was worried about something, and it had nothing to do with him, and what he cared about was only the property of this family.
