The Delicate Lady Coroner

Chapter 57: Three stalks of Mei 12

As soon as Bo Ruoyou said this, everyone's expressions changed.

Huo Weilou was thinking about something. Hearing this, she couldn't help but look up at her, and Liu Huiniang, who was standing in the hall, had a calm look on her face. She looked at Thin Ruoyou with a little surprise, but soon, her brows raised. , I smiled calmly and said: "The girl has no evidence, so don't talk nonsense. At the same time, the girl has always been in the house and has never gone out. Who can sing if it is not a girl?"

With a faint smile on Liu Huiniang's face, she still didn't have the slightest fear, and said thinly, "The story of last night, but you burned it on the western terrace?"

Liu Huiniang smiled slightly, and then she understood why they knew about Chen Hanmo last night and knew that she could write stories. She laughed, "Talking notebook? What do people's girls do with writing notebooks?"

Liu Huiniang made it clear that oil and salt would not enter, and Bo Ruoyou sighed: "Because the last story in the story is for you to continue, you want to burn this thing, and you think it is Chen Hanmo's book, so I chose Li Yuchang. Burn it in the land of the river, you are not worshiping Li Yuchang, you are trying to burn it to Chen Hanmo and tell him that you are avenging him."

Liu Huiniang blinked, "Does the girl tell stories like this too? The girl really doesn't understand what you are talking about."

Bo Ruoyou was a little bit troubled, only feeling that Liu Huiniang couldn't do anything for a while, Li Yuchang was dead, and there was no evidence of the murderer left on the body, and both Liu Huiniang and Song Meiniang were determined and not easy to confess.

"The one in your room should be Song Meiniang, she sang for you, making everyone think it was you, and you, mostly had an appointment with Li Yuchang, he went to the west terrace first, and you followed after me, Song Meiniang When you have an appointment with Lu Qing, you will meet with Li Yuchang before your son. In this way, Lu Qing can also testify for Song Meiniang."

Bo Ruoyoushi hasn't spoken for a long time, so he is considering the possibility here. Song Meiniang pretends to be ill to cover people's eyes, but she and Li Yuchang are not close now. The two of them meet on the terrace at night, which is no better than the concubine who came with Liu Huiniang. And Liu Huiniang was drinking and talking with him first, it was when Li Yuchang was intrigued by Li Yuchang, so Liu Huiniang should be the best to go to the platform, and everyone knows that she and Song Meiniang are wicked, and Song Meiniang fell seriously ill. Who would have thought that Song Meiniang was singing for her?

Liu Huiniang couldn't help laughing. "The girl is so ingenious. If it is so, it is really a seamless situation. But is Song Meiniang still singing now? If she sings, why should I be repeatedly Press it down?"

Liu Huiniang showed his face, Huo Weilou rubbed the black jade on the knuckles and pointed out: "Lu Qing has said that it is not true that Song Meiniang's voice fell down, and you were taught by Song Meiniang. You are the best in singing. There are similarities, and most of the opera tunes are clear and bright, not to mention outsiders, but even the people in your theatrical troupe are difficult to distinguish."

Liu Huiniang frowned. It seemed that Lu Qinglu had a flaw, but she was still calm. "These are just the conjectures of Lord Hou and this girl. There is no proof. These words are for Song Meiniang. I'm afraid Song Meiniang won't respond, she is dying of illness, singing for the folk girls? Really incredible."

Huo Weilou's eyes were grim, "This dynasty emphasizes the conviction of the original condition. Although there is no iron proof, now Li Yuchang is dead, and you two have many weird behaviors, and the most harmful people are possible. The government has the right to arrest and interrogate people. , You are all weak women, do you want to go to jail and have a taste of torture?"

This remark made Liu Huiniang's expression stagnant, and Huo Weilou said: "You did not do this alone, you don't recognize it, but Song Meiniang is not as innocent as you are. You should know why she has murdered Li Yuchang. Then you should also understand her weakness."

Liu Huiniang couldn't laugh anymore. There was a balance in her eyes, and she lowered her eyes and said: "The girl doesn't know if she wants to harm the master, but the girl only knows that the girl has never done harm to others."

Huo Weilou stared at her for a moment, Liu Huiniang did not dare to look at her, but she never showed her timidity. Soon, Huo Weilou told her to retreat.

Seeing Liu Huiniang's back disappear, Bo Ruoyou sighed softly, "If she is thinking about revenge for Chen Hanmo, now, she is truly free from concern, and such a person has no weakness to be found."

Huo Weilou was not in a hurry, "She has no weaknesses to be found, but Song Meiniang is not."

Luke stepped forward upon hearing this, "Master Hou, do you want to use some means?"

Bo Ruoyou hurriedly looked at Huo Weilou after hearing this. Even the methods of embroidering clothes were heard in the shops. If Huo Weilou was willing, let alone Song Meiniang, even Liu Huiniang could not stand the trial.

Huo Weilou shook his head faintly, "It doesn't need to be." He tapped his knuckles on the arm of the chair twice, "Song Meiniang's request is actually very simple. Wait a day, Benhou will see her in person tonight, you immediately Send someone ashore to make the Chuzhou government come to settle the case tomorrow morning."

Changfeng Ferry is at the boundary of Chuzhou. If this case is elsewhere, Huo Wei Building may not be involved. Naturally, it will be handed over to the local government for judgment. Lu Ke felt that everything in Huo Wei Building was under his control, and he responded immediately. Away.

Bo Ruoyou looked at Huo Weilou, but he didn’t know what his plan was. When he noticed her gaze, Huo Weilou stood up and walked outwards and said: "Song Meiniang has not resisted for many years, saying it is for redemption, but Lu Qing knows. She will not leave the theater. She wants to protect her daughter from murder, and asks for her daughter's safety."

Bo Ruoyou followed Huo Wei Building to the railing. At this moment, the boat had stopped not far from the ferry. The river wind raised the robes of the two of them. Although the two were a step away from one another, the robes of Huo Wei Building lay with her skirts. The pendulum actually fought to one place, and Bo Ruoyou understood the meaning of Huo Weilou after turning his mind.

Father Fu said that as long as Huo Weilou speaks, everyone can be free.

She originally thought that the hard to find evidence in this case was quite distracting, but she had to be tortured and tortured, and she was a little bit of a beating, but if Song Meiniang or Liu Huiniang could confess by themselves, it would be quite different.

Song Meiniang was pacing restlessly in the cabin all day long. The food delivered was already cold, but she had no appetite. The embroidered clothes envoy took care of her on the second floor, and Yueniang was taken away in the morning until sunset. What has Yueniang experienced before being brought back?

It’s a foolproof method of harming people on the boat, and there is still no evidence left, but no one thought that there should be a nobleman like Wu Zhaohou on the boat of the Shen family, and Song Meiniang no matter how much status. Humble, but also knows Wu Zhaohou's prestige, what will her daughter, who is not yet twelve years old, experience in the hands of a murderous embroiderer?

Song Meiniang is living like a year.

The night fell, and the only lamp in her cabin was left with a faint flame. She stood in the house and went to the door several times to inquire, but the embroidered clothes she was guarding made her feel cold and could not answer her a word. See In this situation, Song Meiniang became more and more frightened. She was bold enough to kill, but she wanted to protect her daughter, but now she is dragging her daughter down instead?

Just as Song Meiniang burned her eyebrows anxiously, Luke arrived.

"Song Meiniang, Master Hou has a call."

Song Meiniang’s eyes were bright. She should have been afraid to meet Wu Zhaohou, but at this time she finally met the person in charge, but it gave her hope. As soon as she left the house, she couldn’t help but grabbed Luke, "My lord, dare to ask my lord." , Where is Yueniang?"

She was very anxious, her voice was not rougher than last night, but as if he had recovered from a serious illness in a day. Luke pulled away from her hand, her eyes were cold and hard, and she still didn't say a word, Song Meiniang A heart sank into the valley suddenly, and when she went downstairs, she fell twice in a row because of weak legs.

When he stumbled to the hall on the first floor, he saw Huo Weilou wearing a black robe sitting on the main seat, and everyone around him treated each other coldly. Although it was not an official court, it was even more frightening than the one above the court.

Song Meiniang stepped forward to salute respectfully, but her eyes couldn't help but glance around. However, how she looked at it, the left and right wing rooms of this hall were all closed, and she didn't even know where Yueniang was.

Huo Weilou is not ill or slow, "Looking for Yueniang?"

Song Meiniang was very restrained, but anxiety still showed from her eyebrows. Although she was pretending to be sick, she didn't know how to treat herself harshly. At the moment, her lips were chapped and her complexion was pale, and she was seriously ill. She hesitated and cautiously opened her voice. She pretended to be low and dumb, "Yueniang is young, no matter what happens, it has nothing to do with her."

"It's hard for you to be mother-hearted." Huo Weilou arrived at this time, because he was ready, and even the fraudulent confession was avoided.

Song Meiniang suddenly raised her head in shock, but Huo Weilou did not give her a chance to speak, "You and Yueniang are not allowed to eat chestnuts. Back then, you were injured in singing and raised her for a year and a half, and Yueniang was at that time. After she was born, Yueniang was sent to the theater. You treated her as if she had gone out. Li Yuchang also tacitly agreed. If you and Yueniang are just masters and apprentices, who can believe it?"

There were a lot of people in the Yuchun class on the boat upstairs. Song Meiniang knew that those old things couldn't be hidden, but she didn't want to simply admit it.

Seeing her pursing her lips, Huo Weilou said again: "You conspired with Liu Huiniang, and Liu Huiniang continued "The Resurrection", and then coaxed Li Yuchang to sing with her for the last time. If Li Yuchang is allowed to die in the theater, he must be attracted. There was an uproar. You knew that you were going north in the morning, so you thought about committing a crime on the boat. The boat was fast, but you were temporarily isolated from the shore. If you are lucky, you will be judged to have died by accident at the moment. It is a pity that you are bad luck. A little bit, I met Benhou."

Song Meiniang's hand in front of her was clenched into a fist. She was only worried about Yueniang, but now she was exposed by Huo Weilou. She was even more terrified, but Huo Weilou continued: "That night you were singing in the room instead of Song Meiniang and seducing Li Yuchang. The person who fell downstairs was Liu Huiniang."

Song Meiniang shook her body and looked up at Huo Wei Tower in disbelief. This was the most subtle trick in their conspiracy. She couldn't think of how Huo Wei Tower discovered it.

Huo Weilou looked at her calmly, "You have an affair with Lu Qing, and you care about Yueniang. It is impossible to die, but you jumped into the river in front of everyone. The boat was slow that night, and the boatmen were all outside watching the show. , You know, if you jump down, someone will save you immediately, so you took a risk, and then became seriously ill, which everyone expected, but in fact you are just pretending to be sick."

Song Meiniang stared at Huo Weilou in a daze. The calmness in her eyes had already produced filigree cracks like a broken mirror. Huo Weilou simply said: "The medicine that the thin girl prescribes for you is for the purpose of clearing away heat and rejuvenating, but some of them are medicines. But it is toxic. If you are sick, it is a good cure, but if you pretend to be sick, the medicine will make you vomit."

Song Meiniang immediately understood where she had exposed her flaws. She clenched her cuffs anxiously, her eyes dangling, and she seemed to be planning something very quickly. At this moment, Huo Weilou said again: "You have a sophisticated layout, and each other If you have to procrastinate, it is not necessary to be a witness, but now this situation has been broken, and you have to cover it up, it is only in vain, and this lord disdain to impose severe punishments with you weak women, and there is quite a lot of information here. Many, when it comes to the three characters of sentiment, reason and law, you also have a bit of sentiment and reason, so this lord will give you a bit of forgiveness."

He paused slightly, and even the thin side of Ruoyou looked at him, and he saw Huo Wei's corridor: "If you truthfully confess, I will count you confessing to the crime. I will open the Internet, and you will be exempted from the death penalty and commuted to the second class, Yueniang. She is still young and not the principal culprit. I can save her from her crimes and get rid of her slavery. If everything goes well, you will still have a chance to reunite in the future."

Song Meiniang's gray eyes suddenly lit up.

Huo Weilou said again, "I will only give you a cup of tea. If you don't recruit, I will be--"

Before Huo Weilou had finished speaking, Song Meiniang knelt down with a "puff".

Huo Weilou stopped talking and looked at her in time. Song Meiniang was breathing fast, her eyes half hesitant and half moved, she didn't even speak, her tears were already falling, and soon, she squatted heavily as if she was willing to go.

"Master Hou, Minnu is willing to confess."

The hanging hearts of the whole room fell to the ground at this time.

Huo Weilou said quietly: "Say."

Song Meiniang raised her head, her face wet with tears, and when she spoke, her voice returned to a normal, clear and euphemistic voice.

"The girl entered the theater at the age of seven. The master at that time saw that the girl was a good seedling, so he gave the girl a gift. When the girl was young, both of her parents died and she was born from a humble background. Although he was also a slave and a maid, he was able to learn how to sing and act in Nanxi opera. In fact, it was a blessing from the previous life. At that time, the folk girl was grateful to the master, so later the master asked the folk girl to commit himself, and the folk girl had no complaints. , And thinking about it, the master also has a lot of compassion and love for the folk girls, and the folk girls have been with the master in this life."

"Yueniang was conceived for more than a year after the first appearance of the maiden. Although the maiden was full of glory on the stage, she was very happy to learn that she was pregnant, but the master was furious. When he was pregnant, he could not be on stage for a year. This really broke his plan. He likes Nanxi opera, and he prefers to make his troupe dominate in Jiangnan. People's daughters were originally his stage pillars, but suddenly disappeared for a year. How could he bear it? ?"

"The daughter of the people was chilled at that time. He had prepared the medicine for the children of the fetus. It was the daughter of the people who saved the child. He may be that the girl of the people is really good at singing and acting. It was also approved. Later, Yueniang was born, Mindv raised her body for two months, and then waited again. Since then, Mindv has made a lot of money for him..."

"Later, more young children came to the theater. Min-girls were already heartbroken at the time. Knowing that he would not give them the status of citizen-girls, they only focused on educating Yueniang and accepted many apprentices. Min-girls started to learn. The opera was only for a livelihood. Later, I realized the beauty of Nanxi. Anyone in the troupe who had some talents was taught by the people. I only hope that more and more people will sing Nanxi, and more and more people will listen to it. In these years, all the actresses who appeared on the stage were occupied by him, but they were all untitled, and even those who were given away by him were sold."

"Min girls are humble, and the people you see around them are also poor people. These are nothing, but just in the middle of autumn last year, after Yue Niang tried to sing "The Magpie Bridge Meeting", Min girls actually Seeing, he showed that look to Yueniang..."

Tears fell like rain, and Song Meiniang's face was intertwined with sorrow and hatred, which only made the onlookers lively.

"That's his biological daughter. He doesn't like the daughter born to the actress. He has never intended to recognize Yueniang. Mindaughters dare not imagine that they can only be Yueniang's sister and master for the rest of their lives. The daughter of the people is also willing to let Yueniang live without a father, so what if there is no father or mother? Those of us poor and lowly, we have tried our best to survive, so what else can we ask for?"

"But people girl, you can't look at that brute gang up on Yueniang anyway!" Song Meiniang's eyes were red, and her voice became stern. "Everyone says that tiger poison does not eat children. He knows that Yueniang is his daughter. He is so. Coveted Yueniang..."

"Minnv can't be mistaken, it's the man's desire to look at me. Minnv knew at the time that the beast would have to occupy Yueniang sooner or later." Song Meiniang seemed to think of the scene at the time, resentment and despair were mixed, and she cried. The voice became more and more mournful.

Suddenly, her cry was stagnant, her teeth clenched, and her eyes were cruel, "But Yueniang is not without her mother, her mother is with her every day, but she doesn't know it, her mother My love for her is like any mother in this world, who can save her life for her-and only when Li Yuchang is dead, can she and I be truly at ease forever."

After saying this, Song Meiniang seemed to think that Li Yuchang was dead, her eyes were filled with pleasure, and she raised her hand to wipe the tears off her face, "Hui Niang is the best apprentice I have ever taught, and she does not respect her teacher. Dao, it was me. I said that my voice fell down because I didn't want to sing. Later, I found out that if I had **** with her, Li Yuchang would favor her even more, so we simply acted differently."

"She was like me. At first I thought Li Yuchang really took pity on her, but later I watched a lot, but she gave up too. Then she met Chen Hanmo. Chen Hanmo could have been delayed for a few years. It was Li Yuchang who was annoyed by him to Hui Hui. Mother thought, asking the doctor to prescribe the prescription was just a gesture. After Chen Hanmo moved out of the theater, he cut off his medicine and food. Chen Hanmo almost starved to death in a serious illness..."

"We started planning before the Chinese New Year. Hui Niang and Chen Hanmo learned a good handwriting. She continued to write the playbook and gave it to Li Yuchang. Li Yuchang was like a treasure, and we rehearsed the play, and a play can be sung and performed thousands of times. Every hand, eye, every body method and footstep will eventually become a habit engraved in the bones. From the early years of drama, I can now perform the whole scene with my eyes closed. A few times, accidents happened because I didn’t see the place and only focused on my footsteps. , I can make such an accident, and so can Li Yuchang."

"The theater has not yet appeared on the stage, but it has made him addicted. Of course he is happy, but we dare not let him die in our theater. The park is his confidant. The local government office is also familiar with his house. We I was scared, so when we knew we were going north by the water years ago, we wanted to kill him on the boat."

"I grew up in a riverside fishing village, and I am familiar with water. Coupled with the dexterous body and bones I have trained for many years, I am not afraid of falling into the river at all. However, Li Yuchang is very old and fell into the river accidentally after drinking. This is nothing unusual. That's right, but we didn't expect that there should be Lord Hou on this boat, there are so many officials, and this doctor who can examine the corpse..."

Song Meiniang smiled bitterly, "Hui Niang was taught by me. Our vocals are exactly the same, but now I am a few years older and lack some clear colors, but I am familiar with the technique, and it takes almost no time to learn her singing for a while. Strength, I made a cover for her, Yueniang made a cover for me, we were foolproof..."

Speaking of this, Song Meiniang suddenly changed her expression slightly: "But Yueniang doesn't know how much insider love she is. Yueniang sees that Li Yuchang has impure thoughts about her. She is just afraid. She treats me as a sister, and I ask her to do what she does. Just do whatever, she is young and dare not want to kill, everything is my fault, I taught her."

Song Meiniang kowtowed her head to the ground, "The people's daughter is true, and I also ask Master Hou not to deceive the people's daughter. As long as she can get rid of her slavery for Yueniang and she has a hope for the rest of her life, it is not for the people's daughter to be exempted. There is no complaint or regret for the criminally responsible people."

Huo Weilou looked at Song Meiniang without saying anything for a while, his eyes were dark, as if thinking of someone else through Song Meiniang, Father Fu couldn't help but call out: "Hou Ye—"

Huo Weilou returned to his senses, "Write down what you said without fail, as well as how you conspired, discussed, and acted that night. The more meticulous the better." After that, I see Song Meiniang's praying hope. Following him, Huo Weilou said again: "This Houhou must do what he says."

Song Meiniang let out a long sigh of relief and kowtowed her head again to thank her. Huo Weilou looked at her and said: "Liu Huiniang doesn't want to confess. I have ordered you to persuade her. Are you willing?"

Song Meiniang showed shame first, and then nodded. Huo Weilou ordered Lu Ke to act. Lu Ke took Song Meiniang to write down the testimony, signed and detained, and then went to see Liu Huiniang.

The two met and talked for a full half an hour. When Song Meiniang came out, Liu Huiniang had changed her previous attitude and was willing to confess. Huo Weilou did not interrogate and only asked her to write down her testimony until the end of the hour. , The testimony of the two was sent to the case of Huo Weilou.

Lu Ke said: "The testimonies of both Song Meiniang wrote that Song Meiniang was the principal culprit, and the other two were accomplices, and Yueniang's guilt was negligible."

Huo Weilou glanced at the testimony before putting down his testimony, "You don't have to go into details. It is difficult to judge whoever has the more guilt and who has the less guilt. She and the two have reached a consensus. They will be handed over to the Chuzhou government tomorrow and follow this testimony. Confess the case."

Lu Ke replied, and when it was too late, he retired with his testimony. Huo Weilou raised his hand and rubbed his eyebrows. He was about to get up, but he heard a slight sound of footsteps outside the door. The sound of footsteps was walking past his door. , But went to the next door without stopping, Huo Weilou said intently, "Bo Ruoyou—"

Bo Ruoyou, who was holding the teapot outside the door, slammed her feet and looked at the closed door of Huowei Building. For a while, she thought she had a hallucination. She hesitated for a moment, and knocked on the door. Female?"

The door was quickly opened, and Huo Weilou stood inside the door and asked condescendingly: "Is the medical certificate available for writing?"

Bo Ruoyou was taken aback for a moment, "Ah, check the status..."

When she rolled her eyes, she seemed to be looking for a rhetoric, but she didn't think about how to say it, so she showed a guilty conscience on her face, "Hou Ye hasn't ordered, so the daughter of the people still... hasn't written..."

The post-mortem that morning did not find any traces of man-made murder. Later, it was not treated as a homicide case, and these few cases were all extraordinary cases. They were all written when the case was finalized. After today’s interrogation, Huo Weilou only ordered Song Meiniang to write. The testimony, she really forgot.

However, since it was a murder case, it was her responsibility to write the testimony.

Seeing Huo Weilou's squinting eyes, her thin eyes felt bad, her lips moved slightly and she wanted to sue her. However, before she spoke, she listened to Huo Weilou's cool voice and said: "Then you come in and write, Ben Hou sees For you to write."

As soon as he finished speaking, Huo Weilou turned and entered, Bo Ruoyou looked at his tall back, only to feel the flustered by the teacher in the school, and now it is not the master, but Wu Zhao who is in control of her future and destiny. Hou.

Bo Ruoyou showed a bitter expression and entered the door struggling.
