Chapter 291: Who is it?
Who is Chapter 291?
Yao Yapo is a deep-rooted person. Wen Jiuxiao dug out a large oilcloth bag from the vegetable field in the backyard of her house, which contained not only an account book, but also two letters. Looking at the handsome lower script with hairpin flowers on the account book, Wen Jiuxiao raised his eyebrows. A woman who can write such a good handwriting must have an unusual background, but she has been pretending to be vulgar and vulgar for decades.
Wen Jiuxiao read the letter first, obviously it was written to the same person. The content is very simple, that is, people are sent to the designated place, who is the person who takes over, and so on. The name of the successor is a pseudonym at first glance, and there is nothing to be seen from these two letters.
This Mrs. Yao is really interesting. She has handed over all the books, but the person behind it has not missed a single word.
Looking at the records in the account book, not only the accounts, but also the name, life experience, and where the abducted girl was sold are all recorded one by one. The time can be traced back to twenty years ago. Some girls still have words such as death from illness, suicide, etc. written on the back. It seems that the handwriting was added later. Is this the final fate of those girls who were sold?
Wen Jiuxiao roughly counted, there are more than five hundred people in the account book, and this is only recorded, if you add the unrecorded ones, wouldn't the number of people sold by Yao Yamao be thousands... Smell The knuckles of Jiu Xiao's fingers turned white while pinching the ledger, and anger appeared in his eyes.
Such a sinful woman, still want to live? Heh, death by a thousand swords is not an exaggeration.
Yu Zhi also quietly looked at these account books. Her focus was different from Wen Jiuxiao's. She found that many of these abducted girls were officials and officials. The daughter of a high-ranking official, Yu Zhi picked it up, and it actually accounted for as much as 30%.
Senior official of the second rank! With such a family status, how did Yapo Yao get away with her daughter?
Yu Zhi pondered, then found a pen and paper to copy down this part, studied it carefully, and asked Wen Jiuxiao to inquire, and found that most of the abducted girls were from poor families, and some were even exiles. female. This is a bit interesting.
"Third Master, retrial, there is a problem with the identity of Yao Yaomao, she is definitely not like she said, she is just a maid released by a wealthy family." Yu Zhi told Wen Jiuxiao of this discovery.
Wen Jiuxiao looked at Yu Zhi, Yu Zhi said: "Is it possible that she is a daughter in trouble?"
Wen Jiuxiao was thoughtful, "Twenty years ago, when I ascended the throne today, there were quite a few officials who were in trouble." He nodded again, "Tomorrow I will interrogate Mistress Yao."
The next day at noon, Wen Jiuxiao came back with an uneasy face. Yu Zhi's heart skipped a beat, "What, something happened to Mrs. Yao?"
Wen Jiuxiao nodded, "I killed myself. I used a hairpin." The hateful thing is that they didn't know whether the hairpin was sent in later, or she had hidden it on her body before. Before being thrown into the prison, Yapo Yao was searched carefully, but the hairpin was never found.
If she had hidden it on her body long ago, where did she hide it?
If someone sent it in later, even if there were no spies in Dali Temple, someone would have been bribed.
No matter which one it is, Wen Jiuxiao will not be happy.
"The person died?" Yu Zhi frowned, not because of her pity, such a person, let alone died, even if he died a thousand times, he would not be innocent. But when she died, many things were unclear.
"That's not true." Wen Jiuxiao shook his head, "I called the imperial doctor and was rescued. But I hurt my throat and couldn't speak for a short time."
"Don't you still have hands? Then let her write."
Wen Jiuxiao also meant the same thing, "I just woke up, it's not exciting now, it's only a few days."
However, within a few days, Mistress Yao died. Taking advantage of the convenience of her mother-in-law who was guarding her, she strangled herself to death with her trouser belt.
"This woman is so ruthless!" Just stabbing her neck with a hairpin, she was finally rescued, and she didn't even wait a day before she tried to die again. She must be weak when she just woke up, but she chose to strangle herself to death. How much perseverance is this? This is with a will to die.
"However, don't you think her attitude has changed a little quickly?" Before that, she still wanted to live, so she was afraid of death. Why did he commit suicide all of a sudden? Still using such a drastic method, Yu Zhi thought it was too abnormal, "Who saw her before she committed suicide?"
Wen Jiuxiao's heart moved, "I see." He spun out like a gust of wind.
Yu Zhi...
What do you know? Come back and make it clear!
After three days, Yu Zhi knew. Wen Jiuxiao found out that Yao Yamao was looking for death again, so he set up a trap. He quickly controlled the people who appeared outside the door at that time, then invited the imperial doctor, and soon released them, resulting in Yao Yamao being rescued again. illusion.
Including the old woman guarding Mistress Yao, she just found out that Mistress Yao was looking for death again, and she screamed in fright at that time, but she didn't know whether she was dead or not. With Wen Jiuxiao's operation, only Zhuo Zhengyang knew the truth except himself and the imperial physician who was seeing him, and he didn't even tell Mr. He.
Wen Jiuxiao frightened the snake again, let out the wind and found the evidence.
Master Yao didn't die, but the person behind her was really anxious. Wasn't this agitation showing off her feet?
It turned out that the old woman who was guarding Yao Yapo had a stomach ache and ran to the latrine because she had a bad stomach after eating, and the one who gave her medicine was a woman who was good at midwifery in the women's prison. She mainly delivers babies to female prisoners, and everyone else thinks she is unlucky, so she has a very low sense of existence, like a ghost.
She has never married in her life, and only has a picked daughter under her knees. This girl is already married, and her husband's family lives in poverty. But in the past two days, the neighbors suddenly discovered that the girl was wearing brand new clothes, with a silver hairpin on her head, and the smell of meat was still coming from the house. They were all surprised, did her family find money?
Why do you say that? We are all neighbors who have lived together for decades, who doesn't know the details of whose family? The man in this family is a laborer, and the money he earns is barely enough to eat. The daughter-in-law's family has only one old woman, and she can't help her. Besides picking up silver, is there any other explanation?
Wen Jiuxiao immediately arrested the midwife for interrogation, but the midwife denied it, but panicked when she saw the three hundred taels of silver notes found under her bed.
Successfully pried open the mouth of the midwife, followed the clues all the way, and found a man named Pan Hezhong.
Who is Pan Hezhong? He is Bai Sanye, the younger brother of Bai Guogong, who stayed in Beijing to watch Zhuangzi's steward. Wen Jiuxiao doesn't believe how much protection he can provide Mistress Yao for a small manager? Could it be his master? But Mr. Bai is not in Beijing at all, and the whole family has been working abroad for eight or nine years.
Is it Mr. Bai? What Wen Jiuxiao thought more about was whether Bai Guogong got involved? Concubine Bai doesn't have a prince under her lap, so what is he doing with so much money?
