  Chapter 479 Puluo An old nun

  Zheng Haichuan secretly glanced at Lin Jinxiao who was sitting upright, and saw that his expression was still lifeless, obviously not satisfied with his confession.

   His eyes paused slightly, and he gritted his teeth and said, "Ten years ago, a plague occurred in Wujia Village, Tong County. At that time, nearly 1,500 people in three nearby villages died of this plague."

  Lin Jinxiao was a little impatient when he heard it, and narrowed his eyes angrily: "If you keep talking about insignificant things, this king will kill you immediately."

   "This is not an insignificant matter."

  Zheng Haichuan faltered and said: "This thing, this thing is exactly what Wu Enrong instructed people to do."

   "Wu Enrong?"

  Chu Nanzhi's complexion suddenly changed.

  Lin Jinxiao's sinking complexion gradually eased a lot.

   "This incident was not caused by the plague. It was Wu Enrong who ordered people to poison and kill those innocent people in order to cover up the identity of his elder sister."

   Zheng Haichuan replied meticulously.

   "There is such a tragic thing."

  Hearing this, everyone was shocked:

   "It's just crazy."

  Looking at the faces of everyone beating their chests and stamping their feet, Chu Nanzhi let out a long breath, and said slowly, "How did you find out about this?"

   "When my godfather was still alive, I once got drunk with Du Sankui, the boss of the Yulong Gang, and I overheard the two of them talking about this matter."

Zheng Haichuan's expression also looked a bit dignified: "Back then, Du Sankui was a member of the Yulong Gang, and it was because he helped Wu Enrong solve this problem that my godfather entrusted him with the full power of the Yulong Gang and the Donghua River Water Transport. .”

  Speaking of this, he also closed his eyes a little reluctantly: "Du Sankui led people to Tong County in those days. He went door-to-door to check, but he killed all survivors."

   "Just to cover up the identity of one person, more than a thousand people in several villages were ruthlessly killed."

  Chu Nanzhi couldn't help sneering, thinking of Wu Enrong's evil deeds, she wished she could go to the county prison immediately and tear him into pieces.

   "It's like a pig or a dog."

  Chen Chuan clenched his fists bitterly.

   I didn't expect that there would be someone more vicious than myself.

  Zheng Haichuan looked at the furious expressions of everyone, and was afraid of venting his anger on himself, so he quickly explained:

   "This matter is by no means related to lowly positions. Back then, godfather learned that Wu Enrong was about to be promoted to the prefect of Pingning County. It happened that his godmother was also from Tong County. After learning about Wu Enrong's family affairs, he discussed this plan with him.

Afterwards, Wu Enrong took advantage of his position to attribute the deaths of the villagers in the three villages to the plague, and then the matter was left alone. Even the humble officials and Du Sankui who knew about it were threatened. Life is not guaranteed. "

   "It's really useless to be a county parent official."

  The resentment in Lin Jinxiao's heart also rose to the extreme.

   No wonder that when Du Sankui was captured, Wu Enrong dispatched the garrison in the Beibu Gulf privately. It turned out that it was for this purpose.

   It's no wonder that Du Sankui dared to rebel so recklessly and blatantly. With Wu Enrong's protection, he didn't dare to do anything.

   It's just that Du Sankui's stinky mouth is harder than a rock, so it may be difficult to pry out words for a while.

  Besides, ten years have passed since the incident, so it is difficult to identify Wu Enrong based on the confessions of these two people alone.

  Looking at Zheng Haichuan, Lin Jinxiao thought about it and asked, "Do you have any other evidence to identify what happened back then?"

  Seeing that his attitude has finally softened, Zheng Haichuan knew that his life was hopeful, secretly pleased for a while, and replied suspiciously: "There is an old nun in the Puluo nunnery who is acting as a substitute. She knows about this and can testify in court."

   "The old nun of Puluo Temple?"

  Chu Nanzhi showed surprise.

  She still has some impressions of this place, which is specially used to store those female corpses who have died tragically before the ceremony.

  The rest of the people were also surprised when they heard it: How could an old nun know about this?

Zheng Haichuan looked at the confused faces, and quickly explained: "This old nun is none other than Wu Enrong's biological mother, Qin Xiaoniang. He was poisoned to death, and only his biological mother survived in the whole family."

   "It turns out that the famous prefect is also the heir of a concubine."

  Chu Nanzhi couldn't help sighing.

From the bottom of my heart, I roughly guessed why Xiaoniang Qin didn't follow her son to the county to enjoy the blessings, but escaped into a Buddhist family and raised such a madman. Life.

Zheng Haichuan didn't know why she was so curious about this matter, so he replied submissively: "It is indeed a concubine, but the heir of the lady in the Wu family died unfortunately, and later adopted Wu Enrong into his own name, Wu Enrong is for this reason With the title of son-in-law, coupled with the support of Mr. Zhao and the Qi family later on, he successfully made friends with the nobles in the capital and sat on the position of prefect in the county."

  Chu Nanzhi couldn't help but let out a sneer when he heard this.

   This person's way of counterattack is not limited to the Qi family and Zhao Taigong, but to use all the resources available around him.

  It is absolutely incomparable for a person to be so selfish and selfish.

   Looking up at Lin Jinxiao who was sitting silently upright, she felt an incomparably warm heart in comparison, as if she saw a majestic radiance covering him.

  Lin Jinxiao stood up casually, walked slowly to Zheng Haichuan, and asked solemnly, "A few months ago, did you know something about the death of Han Zhang, the former Dian Shi of the County Wei's Mansion."

Zheng Haichuan shook his head blankly: "I know that His Highness should be the mastermind who wants to thoroughly investigate the tax and bank case to frame you, but I really don't know about this matter. Even if Wu Enrong trusts me again, he will not tell him about such an important matter. .”

  Paused, his eyes suddenly lit up, and he said happily: "However, Han Zhang does know a little bit because of his humble position. I heard that he is the younger brother of Wu Enrong's concubine Yu Xiaoniang. As long as Wu Enrong is interrogated, he will definitely be able to find out something."

  Lin Jinxiao raised his eyebrows, nodded and said: "Write down clearly all the money you have received for Wu Enrong and the Qi family over the years, and list the rest of the crimes that have not been confessed. No concealment is allowed."

  Zheng Haichuan responded repeatedly: "Yes, the humble official must explain everything clearly, and will never deceive His Highness and Wangfei again."

Lin Jinxiao finally showed a look of relief, took out some plasters and sore medicines from his bosom and threw them in front of him: "Not only will this king not punish you, but he will protect the lives of your family, and what happened today should be used as a lesson. In the future, if you dare to disrespect this king and concubine again, this king will still not spare you lightly."

   "Thank you, Your Highness."

  Zheng Haichuan showed a bitter face.

  How dare he disrespect this sinister and smart princess now, he had already learned her tricks before Chu Wenyu died.

  Looking at his innocent appearance, Chu Nanzhi suddenly thought of something, and finally asked: "Duyou Zheng, why did you suddenly change your mind today, but someone secretly reported to you?"

"Um."

   Zheng Haichuan gritted his teeth and responded softly.

   "Then, by the way, write down the list of all the gaps in the counties that you know are placed in Luyan Port."

  Chu Nanzhi demanded in a firm tone.

   "Humble position obeys orders."

  Thinking of what happened in the mourning hall that day, Zheng Haichuan was also a little confused, and raised his eyes to look at her and asked weakly: "What happened at the funeral of brother Wen Yu that day, I am still very scared, I want to ask."

  Before he finished speaking, Lin Jinxiao cast a stern look over him: "You can't get involved in this matter."

  Zheng Haichuan was so frightened that he immediately buried his head and didn't dare to speak anymore.
