Chapter 264: Officials come to visit

Wang Yuanwai shut up mid-sentence, with a complicated look on his face.

At this time, Wang Fu came in and reported, "Master, my wife is back."

Wang Yuanwai hesitated for a moment and then told his sons, "Go and stand behind the screen. Don't make any sound. Wait until your mother leaves before you come out."

Brother Cat looked confused, but Brother Li grabbed his younger brother and left.

Soon, Wang E came in. When she saw the medicine bowl on the table, she picked it up and said, "Master, are you feeling better? I'll give you medicine."

Wang Yuanwai reached out and knocked over the medicine bowl, and asked in a deep voice: "Wang E, it has been more than ten years since I married into the Wang family. You know best how I treat you and how I treat the Wang family, but why do you want to kill me?" I?"

Wang E's face turned pale with fright, her lips trembled and she refused to admit, "I don't understand what the master is talking about."

"Don't you understand?" Wang Yuan sat up and was extremely angry.

"I have a headache because there is congestion in my brain. I can recover with a few medicines and simply activating blood circulation and removing blood stasis. But you bribed the doctor time and time again and said that my headache cannot be cured. It has been causing me pain for more than ten years." , I’m going to die soon after this! Wang E, you are so cruel!”

Wang E was exposed, covered her face and started to cry.

Having been married for more than ten years, she naturally felt distressed, but she had to do so.

When Wang Yuanwai saw that she didn't speak, he became even more angry and threw the pillow at hand.

"Even if I did something bad, we have two sons. How could you deliberately try to kill me for their sakes? If they don't have a father in the future, what do you want them to do?"

Wang E was so frightened that she got far away from the bed, wiped a few tears, and said cruelly: "Master, I am sorry for you in this life, and I will definitely repay you in the next life. At this point, I can't help it even if I regret it. You can rest in peace and recuperate while waiting for you...after you leave, I will take good care of Brother Li and Brother Cat."

After saying that, she turned around and was about to go out, but she heard someone shouting from behind the screen, "Mother!"

Brother Cat was young after all and didn’t understand what his parents were arguing about, so he ran out and hugged his mother.

Brother Li understood everything. He walked out with a pale face and weak legs, looking at his mother in disbelief.

Wang E suddenly looked at her husband on the bed, extremely angry.

She didn’t expect that her husband would hate her so much that he would reveal her plan in front of her children!

She wanted to explain a few words to her eldest son, but she heard a commotion at the door.

A servant ran in and shouted, "Madam, an official is coming to the door and wants to take you to the government office!"

Wang E's face turned pale at that time, "Why are you arresting me?"

But four or five officials had already come in, confirmed Wang E's identity, pinched her arm and walked out.

Brother Li and Brother Mao were frightened. Wang Yuanwai struggled out of bed and shouted to his slaves to hitch the carriage. Then he took two children and chased after them.

Due to the relocation of the capital, the originally inconspicuous Xiaozhoufu Yamen was now upgraded to Jingzhaoyin.

Moreover, because there were many conflicts between the dignitaries in Kyoto and the local families, the government office was very lively all day long.

Therefore, the emperor specially sent a well-known upright minister to sit in charge and deal with everything impartially. He never looked at favors, but only looked at right and wrong and evidence.

After more than a year, everyone is convinced, and conflicts have gradually diminished.

After all, no one can take advantage of an official, so it is better to sit down and have a good talk...

But today is really a special day. In the early morning, people came into the city wearing sackcloth and mourning. There were more than a dozen people, old and young, all dressed as ordinary people, but they were holding two tablets, and each one was crying loudly.

“Master Qingtian makes the decision for us!”

“The king of the world, the old man, killed our son! Wow, my son died unjustly!”

“Dad, my son misses you!”

“Er Gouzi, you have a spirit in heaven and ask your mother to redress your grievances and avenge you!”

With such a movement, naturally many people gathered around to watch the excitement and couldn't help but talk about it.

"What are these people talking about, Sihaiju? Didn't Sihaiju just poison someone to death yesterday? Is it still the same thing?"

“It doesn’t sound like me, it sounds like Mr. Wang who lives all over the world!”

"Mr. Wang has been dead for many years. How can he kill someone? It's impossible!" "Let's go and take a look!"

“The Wang family is also unlucky. One thing happens after another, endlessly..."

Soon, the team got bigger and bigger. When they arrived in front of the government office, the street was almost blocked by onlookers.

When Lord Fu Yin heard the drum of injustice, he quickly dressed up and went to the hall.

Seeing this group of people wearing sackcloth and wearing filial piety, he also frowned. After asking carefully, these people spoke confusingly, and finally put the whole thing together.

It turned out that these were two villagers from Dahuaishu Village in the north of the city. Their son suddenly disappeared more than ten years ago and could not be found.

I am very sad that I can’t find anyone at home.

But yesterday one of the family went to the city for business and drank water at a teahouse in the south of the city. They heard something new, which sounded similar to some of the words of their son back then.

So the two families guessed that their son had been killed, so they came to complain, trying to find out how the son died and where his bones were.

Two lives were involved. Lord Fu Yin asked the official to fetch the only daughter of the Wang family, while at the same time asking about the foundation of the Wang family.

The master standing in the corner is a smart man. In addition to helping Mr. Fu Yin handle paperwork, he also wants to be well-informed.

It happened to be that his family lived in an alley in the south of the city. He heard the father of the family who likes to go to teahouses explain everything about the Wang family clearly last night.

At this moment, I told Mr. Fu Yin exactly what he said, adding at the end, "Of course, sir, this is all what the neighbors near the Wang family heard about, and there is no evidence."

Although Mr. Fu Yin is upright, he is not a solid lump of elm wood. Otherwise, he would not have gained the emperor's trust and sat in this position.

His keenness in solving cases over the years allowed him to guess that there was something fishy about it.

After all, the business of the Wang family just collapsed yesterday, and it was revealed that the only daughter of the Wang family deliberately refused to treat her husband-in-law and almost killed him. Today, someone came to sue the Wang family for causing death. It is really a coincidence.

There can be coincidences in the world, but if so many coincidences are gathered together, it is no longer a coincidence...

Soon, Wang E was taken over.

The crowd watching the excitement dispersed automatically, leaving a path for the officials.

Some people were brave enough to look at Wang E carefully and couldn't help but ask: "Is this the only daughter of the Wang family, the one with a snake-hearted heart?"

"That's right. She didn't treat her husband's illness and dragged him until he was about to die."

“She is so beautiful, but she has a vicious heart. No wonder people say women have the most vicious heart!”

Wang E turned pale in shock when she heard a few words.

She finally knew why her neighbors hid when they saw her in the morning!

I originally thought that only my family knew about this, but I didn’t expect that everyone knows about it now!

Her legs were a little weak, but the official would not show mercy, so he dragged her to the hall.

The governor glanced at Wang E who was kneeling down the hall. Just as he was about to speak, there was another commotion outside the government office.

Soon, Wang Yuanwai and his two children also crowded to the front of the hall and shouted, "Sir, I am Wang Xinqiu, Wang E's husband, please allow me to come to the hall."

Mr. Fu Yin nodded, and the officers moved aside. Wang Yuanwai led the two children and knelt down as soon as they entered.

He was already sallow and thin, looking extremely ill, but when he came in such a hurry, he looked even more embarrassed. When he opened his mouth to speak, he actually vomited blood again.

Although he pulled up his sleeves in time to gag, there was still blood at the corners of his mouth.

Everyone in the hall could not help but sigh when they saw this.

"Wang Yuanwai is such a good person. He is about to be killed by Wang E, a poisonous woman, and he still comes to protect her."

“Yeah, maybe it’s for the sake of the two children.”

“Wang E is too ungrateful. I can’t find such a good husband anywhere.”

“Yes, such a person deserves to be struck by lightning!”
