The Brocaded Tale of The Girl Si

Chapter 752 See Through Lies

With the appearance of the woman, the audience began to discuss in a low voice.

"I just wondered if she was the daughter of Wang Sheng's family, but I didn't expect it to be—"

"Yeah, since the daughter of Wang Sheng's family was lost two years ago, Wang Sheng's daughter-in-law has cried when she sees everyone, and she looks pitiful."

"Didn't you say that the girl from Wang Sheng's family eloped with Xianghao, how could people be in the well?"

"Who knows, Xu is that Xianghao who seeks money and kills his life, and gets a lot of money to marry another sweet girl..."

"I thought at the beginning that the girl of the Wang family has an ordinary appearance, and she can elope with someone? I can't say that she was deceived by someone..."

Zhen Shicheng calmly listened to these discussions and asked the woman, "Can you tell us about A Cai's disappearance?"

The woman just stared at the corpse on the ground and wept, as if she had never heard of Zhen Shicheng's question.

The man on the side gave Zhen Shicheng a salute: "Master Qingtian, the villain is Ah Cai's father, the villain, let's talk about it."

Zhen Shicheng nodded slightly.

The man wiped his eyes and said, "The villain remembers clearly that during the Huachao Festival two years ago, the house gave some girls a holiday, and A Cai said that he would go out to play. In the end, Ah Cai never came back-"

Zhen Shicheng waited patiently for the man to wipe away his tears, and asked, "Do you have any doubters?"

"Yes!" The man's voice became louder involuntarily, and his eyes showed a cold light, "A Cai has a boy named A Guang who looks right in the eye, and when A Cai went out that day, he must have made an appointment with that boy... A Guang is killing him. Ah Cai's murderer, ask the eldest master to be the master—"

The woman on the side burst into tears, scolding while crying: "A Guang who killed a thousand knives is the A Cai who killed me—"

Zhen Shicheng listened expressionlessly, and when the two of them calmed down a little, he asked, "Since A Cai and A Guang are close, what reason does A Guang have to kill A Cai?"

"Because we don't agree with them being together!" The man said with anger, "Aguang's parents died early, only a sick grandfather moved out of the palace, and Acai would suffer when marrying into his house. Agreed. That kid must have a grudge in his heart. Seeing that there was no hope of marrying A Cai, he killed her, swept away the money that A Cai secretly took with him that day..."

"So, Ah Guang is no longer in the palace?" Zhen Shicheng asked, stroking his beard.

The steward of the palace said hurriedly: "Report to your lord,

Aguang hasn't appeared since the Flower Festival two years ago. "

"Is there a record of reporting to such a fugitive slave?"

The steward of the palace looked at King Xiang.

King Xiang didn't expect the manager to be so clever, and he actually found such a suitable pair of bitter masters. At the moment, he felt more at ease, and said lightly: "If the lord asks you, you will answer truthfully."

The steward of the palace bowed and said, "It was reported at that time, and the government should still have a record."

Zhen Shicheng nodded slightly.

As long as you're not stupid, you won't lie about something that's easy to find out.

"What about Ah Guang's grandfather?"

"The villain still remembers that A Cai didn't come back in the dark that day, and A Cai's father specially asked me to leave and went to A Guang's house to find someone, but it turned out that A Guang's grandfather had died..." The palace steward replied.

The woman said emotionally: "Master, it must have been A Guang who found out that his grandfather was seriously ill but had no money to seek medical advice. He killed A Cai for the sake of money, and it turned out that his grandfather had returned to the west, so he simply became a fugitive slave..."

"Then is A Guang dissatisfied with your disapproval of A Cai's marriage, or is it because of his grandfather?"

The woman is stagnant.

The man glared at the woman and explained: "Master, these are all our guesses, only he knows why Ah Guang has harmed Ah Cai, but Ah Cai's death has nothing to do with that kid. "

"The two of you are sure that this pair of bones is your daughter A Cai?" Zhen Shicheng pointed at the bones on the ground and asked in a serious tone.

The corpse on the ground has lost its flesh and blood, only the undershirt with indistinguishable color hangs empty on it, and the long hair that has lost its luster is very thick.

However, it is impossible to distinguish between men and women with only one long hair, let alone recognize that this is his own daughter.

The couple insisted on nodding.

"You can't be wrong, the stewards have checked it out. We, A Cai, are the only young girls who have disappeared in the past three years. Who else could this be if it's not our daughter?"

Standing not far away, King Xiang felt much more relaxed.

Originally, I was worried that I would be involved, but now it seems that there is a boy named A Guang who is topping the tank, so I can rest assured.

"I don't know what errands you two are doing in the palace?" Zhen Shicheng asked.

The woman said, "The slaves are in the kitchen."

Zhen Shicheng looked at the man.

The man followed: "The villain follows the purchasing manager to do things—"

Zhen Shicheng asked casually, "So, are the two of you still living in the palace?"

The couple looked at each other and nodded hesitantly: "Your Highness is gracious, life is going well..."

Zhen Shicheng opened the handkerchief, revealing the small pearl earring: "Then take a good look, is this pearl earring worn by your daughter?"

The man glanced at it, his eyes flashed slightly, and quietly glanced at the steward of the palace.

The steward nodded slightly.

The man hurriedly said: "It's A Cai's, the villain has seen A Cai wear it!"

"Uh, is it really Ah Cai's?"

This time, even the woman echoed with tears: "It's A Cai's, that's right, this is A Cai's favorite pair of pearl earrings—"

Zhen Shicheng sneered and said word by word, "Full of lies, this pearl earring is definitely not something you can afford!"

As soon as these words came out, there was a commotion, and many people whispered: "Can't afford a pair of pearl earrings..."

In the eyes of the people in the palace, Wang Sheng and his wife are doing a good job in the palace, not to mention a pair of small pearl earrings, even buying gold hairpins for their daughter can afford it.

There is no doubt that pearls on earrings that are only slightly larger than a grain of rice are not considered valuable by people.

The King of Xiang was dissatisfied and said: "Does Master Zhen feel that Xiao Wang treats his servants harshly?"

Zhen Shicheng smiled and said, "What the lord does to the servants of the palace is not part of this investigation. The officer is just discussing the matter."

"Really? How does Master Zhen decide that they can't afford a pair of pearl earrings for their daughter?"

King Xiang had seen many treasures, but he didn't think pearls the size of a grain of rice were anything.

Zhen Shicheng held the pearl earring and said, "Because the earrings are not inlaid with ordinary pearls!"

"What, it's not an ordinary pearl?" Many people could not help stretching their necks to look at this, even a few princes were no exception.

Zhen Shicheng carefully picked up the pearl earring and made it face the sun.

"Can you see the difference in this pearl now?"

The pearls, which were originally ordinary, became radiant when they were covered with sunlight, and showed different colors with the rotation of Zhen Shicheng's fingers.

King Lu took a deep breath and blurted out: "This is Jiaozhu!"

This thing is old and expensive, and there is a pair of tigresses at home, which cost him a lot of money!
