Chapter 1150: Murder case 2 Chapter 1150: Murder case 2 “That’s not the case.”
Su Qingyue thought for a mont, “It seems that the county magistrate is indeed on my side.”
Xiao Yishan and Xiao Yuchuan both flashed a look of confusion in their eyes.
Xiao Yishan asked, “Yue’er, why would the county magistrate help you?”
She said, “It’s not so much that he’s helping , at least he seems to be leaning towards , otherwise, he definitely would have dispatched officials to stake out in the village.
I crippled Lai Tou in town and recovered the moneybags for several victims, returning their property, which you guys all know about.
One of the moneybag owners was Granny Zheng.
Initially, I didn’t intend to cripple Lai Tou; I just wanted to teach him a lesson.
I heard people say he always stole from Granny Zheng, and even though he was caught and sent to the Official Residence, he ca out after a few days and stole from her again, even to the extent of hitting her.

“The onlookers said Granny Zheng and her husband depended on each other, having tragically lost their son, they raised their grandson with great difficulty.
Their grandson Zheng Dejun went to the capital city to participate in the imperial examinations and hadn’t returned for years, leading everyone to think that Zheng Dejun was dead.
Which is why Lai Tou dared to bully the elderly couple so brazenly.
I inquired, and the new county magistrate happens to be Granny Zheng’s grandson, Zheng Dejun.”
She picked up a piece of firewood, stirring the flas to make them burn brighter, “, Su Qingyue, crippling Lai Tou in town to eliminate a scourge for the people is sothing almost everyone in town knows about, and transforming from an ugly woman doing business to make money to becoming beautiful, has also made sowhat famous.
Those victims all know .
Zheng Dejun is known to be very filial; I guess his favorable bias towards is because I helped his grandmother.”
“I see,” Xiao Yishan nodded, “I was wondering, a few days ago when the officials ca to the village to investigate, they questioned in great detail, but when it ca to searching for your whereabouts, those officials just went through the motions.
It’s said that the county magistrate himself doesn’t quite believe you’re the perpetrator.”
“That makes things easier.” Su Qingyue felt more assured in her heart, “By the way, where is Zhu Daqi’s dead body?”
“His dead body was discovered four days ago, and the forr coroner from the governnt office, who was said to have taken a lot of dirty money following the forr county magistrate, has been sentenced to death.
The new coroner will take office tomorrow.
The officials who visited the village before estimated that the coroner will co to perform the autopsy tomorrow.
Zhu Daqi’s dead body is laid out in the Zhu Family’s Firewood Room, guarded in shifts by people assigned by the village chief,” said Xiao Yishan, “With the cold weather, the body won’t decompose even after a few days.
Zhu Daqi’s body can be buried only after the new coroner has examined the body.”
“It seems I’m in luck, with the people at the governnt office changing at the right ti.”
“This ti, it’s said that many of the officials in the governnt office are new recruits, and most of those under the forr county magistrate were not retained by the new county magistrate.”
Su Qingyue nodded slightly, she actually knew about this as well, “It’s better that Zhu Daqi’s body hasn’t been buried yet, saving the trouble of digging up his grave.”
“Wife, if he had been buried, would you have really dug up his grave?” Xiao Yuchuan asked.
“If I don’t dig up his grave, should I dig up yours?” she said, “Even though I don’t care about a murder case, to avoid being wronged, I must certainly clear my na and find the person trying to fra .
Give him a good chopping with three knife strikes and then let the county magistrate issue a sentence to behead him.”
“Even if the county magistrate sentences beheading, it still has to be reported to the Ministry of Punishnts, normally carried out after autumn.
Right now it’s winter, so the villain could live for almost another year until next autumn…” Xiao Yuchuan calculated.
If they really found the person who frad his wife, either he’ll secretly administer poison to kill the man quietly, which would be cleaner.
