293 Greedy (, ask for everything)
Let's take a look at the brothel. Now the brothel is the mainstream. Not only the younger brother, but also the university professors are writing the story of the brothel. No matter who plagiarizes whom, our brothel must be original!
............
The originally ghostly house is even more gloomy and horrible at this time. With Aunt Xiu's story, everyone's heart is full of horror and fear. People deeply realize that people are far more terrible than ghosts.
On the day when Old Zhao's son was born, Hu Chi, the county magistrate, kindly met Aunt Xiu, the maid who came to visit her father in the county government prison, and personally told her a way to exchange her life for her life.
That night, Aunt Xiu, who was eager to save her father and was fascinated, strangled the newborn baby with her own hands, and hanged the weak Zhu girl on the beam of the house, and left a curse suicide note under the body.
Telling the whole story, Aunt Xiu took a long breath and was calm on the ground. She seemed to spit out the last breath of her life, and her heart was dead.
Everyone was still shocked and couldn't recover. Old Zhao took out a burnt yellow paper from his arms. At first glance, it was a long time. The identity and purpose of Zhu's daughter was written in horizontal and vertical italic characters on it. A string of words cursing his sons and grandchildren are still clearly visible.
"Ah--" Mr. Zhao's hair went crazy and smashed the suicide note like a suicide note. Tears surged from his painful face. When he looked at Aunt Xiu again, his face was more ferocious than the evil spirit. He gritted his teeth and said, "You, damn it!"
Then, the old man Zhao raised his head, and his eyes were full of light and hatred. Hu Chi, who was soaked in cold sweat, quickly came forward and said in a trembling voice, "Mr. Zhao, this woman is bloody. Don't believe it. Thirty years ago, I just came to work. I have never met the old man. I have no hatred or resentment. In the past 30 years, it has been more If you get along well and be a good friend, how can I do this!"
Yes, thirty years ago, there was no reason for the two people who had no grievances and no grudges to instruct Aunt Xiu to do so. Old man Zhao's face softened a little when he heard the words, and even smiled at Hu Chi. He whispered to Hu Chi and said, "Lord Hu, if I remember correctly, you are the third in the palace, right?"
Everyone was stunned and surprised that the old man Zhao's problem seemed to have nothing to do with this matter, but people with intentions such as Liu Liwa and Wu Liniang faintly heard some extra words. However, at this time, Hu Chi was also flustered and replied, "The former emperor's kindness, he appointed the subordinate to be the top three-class of Enke, and appointed a subordinate to Ningyuan County as an official. For the past 30 years, the subordinates have been conscientious and conscientious. Sooner or later, I will thank the emperor for his kindness, and dare not live up to the kindness of the former emperor."
Hu Chi said extremely devoutly and expressed his loyalty to the royal family. It was also because of his words that the handsome man's face suddenly changed, but the smile on the old man Zhao's face became more and more brilliant. He said, "Lord Hu is really loyal to the late emperor and the court. He has been an official for 30 years, benefiting one side and the people. It is well-known, and I am a good friend and friend of adults. How can he be indiscriminately suspicious of the evil slave because of his bloody words, but my lord, this evil slave himself admitted to killing the old couple and asked him to handle it impartially.
"That's natural. It's natural for killing people to pay for their lives. I ordered people to take this evil slave to prison. I must act in accordance with my Dongning law and give the old man a satisfactory explanation." Hu Chiyi said solemnly.
"It's so good." Old Zhao nodded and smiled. He was angry just now, and the feelings of resentment seemed to have dissipated with the wind, which made everyone think that the old man had been hit too deep and was insane.
However, the more he is like this, the more afraid he is, especially the handsome prince representing the Dongning court and the royal family. Looking at the smiling face of the old man Zhao, he became more and more restless, and the corners of Wu Liniang's mouth showed a strange smile. At the same time, the cold star of the saint appeared.
Li Li Wa is also one of the few people who can hear the inside story. Looking at the maid's appearance, she will definitely not lie, and her identity is just a trivial maid. In the Zhao family, the whole family relies on her salary and the lease of the Zhao family's land for a living. The Zhao family is their heaven. There is no reason to offend the Zhao family. Moreover, I have only heard of the unruly lady abusing the girl. She hasn't heard of the maid killing her master. If no one dictates her, if she doesn't have to force her, she definitely doesn't have the courage.
Moreover, when a person is about to die, his words are also kind. What's more, Aunt Xiu has been stunned by Miss Zhu, who has returned to her soul. In addition, she is ashamed that she will definitely not spit people with blood. Even if she wants to pull a cushion, why doesn't she say the other two officials, Hai He and Pu Changfan? Why do she insist that it was instructed by Hu Chi?
In fact, Mr. Zhao has completely believed her words and can still smile at Hu Chi in order to seek a deeper truth, and Hu Chi's loyal remarks just now have completely uncovered the truth.
In today's world, who most wants Mr. Zhao to die, who is most coveted by the wealth of the Zhao family, and who is most likely to take over the family business of the Zhao family? Everyone knows this answer in their hearts. Combined with Hu Chi's declaration of loyalty to the former emperor Rende just now, it is impossible for Mr. Zhao to understand that his former friend is deliberate and scheming for him!
Although Liu Liwa had guessed it for a long time, now that he has really confirmed it, he can't help but be a little shocked. The most terrible thing in the world is wealth and interests. Even if he is high, the emperor who is rich all over the world will be moved. As early as 30 years ago, the old emperor stared at this land rich in products, but there was nothing he could do. The social structure of this era was like this. The feudal social system dominated by the landlord class. Although the emperor coveted, he was worried that he was afraid of the hearts of all landlords, so he did not dare to seize it, so he could only secretly use some means secretly. .
And in the generation of old Zhao, he is the only one in the Zhao family, which is undoubtedly the best time for those who care about his family property. As long as it is guaranteed that Mr. Zhao does not have a son to pass on from generation, everyone's property will become a masterless thing, and for this reason, he even does not hesitate to kill innocent lives...
However, this old man Zhao is really treacherous and cunning, and he is also very determined. He has begun to doubt the Dongning royal family, and even hates it so much, but he does not show it at all, because he knows that it is useless to show it now. The first old maid, Xiu's aunt, is empty-mouthed, even if Mr. Zhao I believe her, but there is no evidence. Second, even if there is evidence that it is Hu Chi who ordered Aunt Xiu to kill his son, and Hu Chi is the official appointed by the emperor to come to Ningyuan County. That is to say, the real behind-the-scenes man is the old emperor. What can you, Mr. Zhao do? Not to mention that the old emperor is dead, what if you can rebel even if you are alive? Third, Mr. Li, who represents the royal family, is here, always paying attention to the reaction of the old man Zhao. If he behaves, he may immediately bring you up rumors and slander the great crime of killing the nine clans of the royal family, which creates opportunities for others to seize.
