Chapter 174 Investigation (5th update, please vote for me)

Wang Hao sat there and heard that the woman's parents had also hanged themselves before. The anger in his heart could not be suppressed, but Wei Qing, who was standing there, felt scared.

"My lord, it's better not to investigate this case. Really, my lord just wants to find a way to fish out Zheng County Cheng. This is not difficult for my lord.

If the investigation continues, it may not be a good thing for the Duke of Guo. Although I know that the Duke of Guo is not afraid, but one thing is worse than one less thing, right?" Wei Qing reminded Zhang Hao with his hands in hand.

When Wang Hao heard this, he looked at Wei Qing and said with a sneer: "It is better to do less than to do more. If everyone is as you think, then how many women are raped every day in Chang'an City, and how many unjust cases are not brought to justice.

In the past, how many more years could the Tang Dynasty be supported? What a bastard!"

"Yes, Mr. Guo, I am also thinking about you. Who can confront Changsun Wuji head-on? You must know that behind him is the queen of the dynasty!" Wei Qing looked at Wang Hao helplessly and said.

"Then behind me are His Majesty and the Queen! Okay, at this time, I will handle it myself. You can move your position. You are useless. A descendant of an aristocratic family, how could you be such a timid person?

You know you have been wronged, but you dare not make decisions for the people. What on earth do you, the county magistrate, manage?" After Wang Hao finished speaking, he opened the study and left.

And Wei Qing stood there, sighing. He also knew that once the case was found out, he would definitely not be able to serve as the county magistrate. If he did not act as the county magistrate, he would probably be punished.

After Wang Hao left the county government office, he went straight to Zhao Qiyuan's house. When he arrived at his house, there was a funeral at their house. They saw Wang Hao coming with the army, and they were very nervous. Wang Hao arrived in front of the mourning hall, and Zhao Qiyuan's family members,

They all knelt down. They didn't dare to offend Wang Hao, let alone come to ask.

Wang Hao saw many incense candles on the table, so he took out three incense sticks and lit them on the candles. Then he went to the coffin, raised the incense sticks, bowed respectfully three times, and then inserted them into the incense burner.

Then he turned around and looked at the family members kneeling on the ground.

"Who is the head of this family?" Wang Hao asked standing there.

"Little one, little one!" At this moment, a middle-aged man with white hair on his temples stood up shakily. Two young men next to him immediately stood up to support him. Wang Hao saw him like this and walked over.

.

"Are you from Zhao Qiyuan?" Wang Hao asked.

"The younger one is Zhao Qiyuan's father!" the middle-aged man said with a trembling voice.

"Oh! I have something to ask for. I want to know how Zhao Qiyuan died. Was it homicide or hanging himself?" Wang Hao stood there, looking at Zhao Qiyuan's father and said.

"Of course it was a homicide. There are wounds all over the body. How could it be suicide? Are you officials so arrogant? I'm going to Chengtianmen to complain. I don't believe it anymore. There is no king's law in the Tang Dynasty!"

A young man next to him shouted angrily at Wang Hao.

"Who are you?" Wang Hao looked at the young man and asked.

"The younger one's name is Zhao Qiyun, and he is Zhao Qiyuan's eldest brother! This military lord, either you kill all the thirty or so members of my family today, or tomorrow we will carry the coffin and go to Chengtianmen to complain. The younger one would rather

My whole family was killed by the Imperial Guards, and I have to give my third brother an explanation!" Zhao Qiyun shouted angrily.

"Oh, there are wounds all over the body. Has the coffin been sealed now?" Wang Hao didn't want to worry about where he was going tomorrow. If he took over the case, they wouldn't have to go. However, there was no need for him to reveal his body yet. Come on.

"No, what does the military master want to do?" Zhao Qiyun looked at Wang Hao in horror and said. Wang Hao ignored him and turned around, preparing to open the coffin and take a look.

"What do you want to do? After a person dies, do you still want to make him uneasy?" Zhao Qiyun was about to rush forward angrily.

At this moment, the Imperial Guards brought by Wang Hao drew out their long knives and pointed at the family members: "Duke Lu, Wang Hao, the captain of the Imperial Guards, is investigating the case. No one else can move, otherwise, they will die!"

"Wang Hao? Duke of Lu Wang Hao? Duke of the state, we are wronged. Lord of the state, please redress our injustice!" When Zhao Qiyun heard that it was Wang Hao, he immediately knew who it was.

Who in Chang'an City didn't know about Wang Hao's killing of the Tubo people last winter?

"Since you know the injustice, write a confession and hand it over to me later. Write down everything you know!" Wang Hao said calmly, and at the same time asked the imperial guards to open the coffin board, and then the two older imperial guards began to explain. When he opened the clothes he had already put on, it turned out that there were bruises all over his body, obviously from being hit hard with a blunt object.

"Master Guo, he didn't hang himself. Look at his legs. They are naturally upturned. If he committed suicide by hanging, his toes would be downward. Moreover, Master Guo, if you look at his face, he doesn't have any bruises. No. The sign of death by hanging!" An old guard pointed at the body and said to Wang Hao,

After hearing this, Wang Hao nodded, and then asked them to get Zhao Qiyuan dressed. He went to Zhao Qiyun and said, "Zhao Qiyuan came back yesterday morning. Did he go out?"

"I haven't gone out, but last night, we heard something moving in the small courtyard where he lived. We went to check, and when we found out, my brother, my brother was hanging on the beam. We took it down and found that his body was all covered with injuries. And the left arm has been broken!" Zhao Qiyun cried.

"The gangster is so arrogant that he comes to the house late at night and uses such methods to kill people?" Wang Hao was also very angry at the moment. If he killed someone, it would only be a matter of two cuts, but this Zhao Qiyuan was obviously tortured to death!

"My lord, we will write a confession now and ask your lord to redress my brother's injustice!" Zhao Qiyun knelt down to Wang Hao and kowtowed.

"Write clearly, write everything you know clearly. I know that there are people behind this case. I guess your family members have seen the people behind this case. If you really want to redress your injustice, then write it down!" Wang Hao stood there, watching. Looking at Zhao Qiyun, he said, "Yes, let's write it clearly!" Zhao Qiyun stood up as he spoke, preparing to write the complaint.

At this moment, Wang Hao looked at Zhao Qiyuan's father and asked, "Is Zhao Qiyuan in love with the woman next door?"

"Yes, I don't dare to hide it from you. The two of them are only separated by a wall and can often hear the sounds of each other's yards. In addition, they are neighbors and have known each other since childhood. The two of them have also made a private life. However, Lao Yu and I We have already discussed this with each other and are planning to propose marriage this year.

Old Yutou agreed. After all, it would be convenient for his daughter to get married soon, and it would be convenient for her to return home. Moreover, my family Qiyuan was also raised by Old Yutou, so he knew what he was like, so he handed his daughter over to my family Qiyuan. , don’t worry,

In addition, this year my family Qiyuan will take part in the imperial examination. Although he may not win the exam, he is a scholar after all. It is still possible to find a job in the future. It was originally a good thing to get married, but unexpectedly, in the blink of an eye, he was...

Such a disaster!" the middle-aged man cried out.

"Well, that makes sense!" Wang Hao nodded. He said before that the walls between the two families require footprints. This is normal. It is not normal for the two of them to climb over the wall to get in with a wall separating them.

"Lao Yutou didn't come today?" Wang Hao asked.

"Here he is, he came to worship early in the morning! He is also too sad!" the middle-aged man cried.

"Okay!" Wang Hao nodded, and then waited for Zhao Qiyun to send a confession.

About a quarter of an hour later, Zhao Qiyun sent the confession, and Wang Hao took it and looked at it. Sure enough, he heard that Chang Sun Wen and Chang Sun Yan were really responsible for it.

"Okay, please pay attention to safety during this period. Before the case comes to light, be careful. There are several dogs at home. If there is any movement, be on guard immediately!" Wang Hao reminded them, and they nodded.

Then Wang Hao turned to the captain beside him and said: "Contact the Imperial Guards patrolling the city to strengthen inspections here!"

"Yes, captain!" the captain said with his hands raised.

Wang Hao nodded, turned around and went out. He was going to visit Lao Yutou's house. When Wang Hao arrived at Lao Yutou's house, he asked someone to knock on the door. An old man opened the door, and he was stunned when he found that it was a military master.

"I am Wang Hao, Duke of the State of Lu, and I have come to pay homage to Mr. Yu!" Wang Hao said, raising his hands to the old man.

"Don't dare, don't dare, wait a moment! I'll inform the master!" The old man, as soon as he heard about Mr. Wang Haoguo, also went in. After a while, an old man was helped out by two middle-aged men.

"I've seen the Duke of the State, and the Duke of the State must avenge my grievances. The Duke of the State said that you are a good man with a righteous heart, the Duke of the State!" As soon as the old man came out, he knelt down to Wang Hao, and the two of them knelt down.

Middle-aged people also kneel down and kowtow.

"Get up, everyone!" Wang Hao immediately went over to help them, and the two guards officers behind also came over to help them.

"Mr. Guo, we all know that you were from an ordinary family before. Mr. Guo, I even knew your father when I was young, and we had business dealings with your father before. Wow, wuwu, Mr. Guo, please save our family and give it to us.

Our daughter will seek justice!" Old Yutou stood up and cried.

"Do you know my father? Oh, that's right. We have lived in Chang'an for so many years. OK, I want to know everything about the matter. Can I trouble you to write a complaint?" Wang Hao stood there and said to Old Yutou.

"It's already written, Dalang. Go quickly, go get it and give it to the Duke of Guo. The Duke of Guo can redress Ying'er's injustice! Take revenge!" Old Yutou said to his eldest son.

"Hey, I'll go right away!" Lao Yutou's eldest son immediately turned around and went to get the complaint.

"My lord, please come to my humble residence for a drink of water!" Old Yu said with his head raised to Wang Hao.

"Well, now that it's written, I won't go in. Oh, what a sin!" Wang Hao also sighed at this moment,

At this moment, at Changsun Wuji's house, Xu Jingzong hurried to Changsun Wuji's house and looked for Changsun Wuji.

"My father is not at home, but is there anything important?" Changsun Chong received Xu Jingzong at home.

When Xu Jingzong heard that he was not at home, he hurriedly asked: "Where is the Duke of Qi now?"
