Chapter 2059: Arrest and Bring to Justice
"The two boys of the Liu family are not locals and are not familiar with Wangjia Village. They could not have planned to kill the Wang family so carefully in such a short time. Therefore, they must have a local accomplice. And this accomplice, I guess, is Wang Changfu."
"I have seen the clothes of the dead, and I saw Wang Changfu again yesterday. The two families are brothers, but the gap between the rich and the poor can be seen from their clothes. And Wang Changfu has Wang Zhang's handkerchief in his hand, which is embroidered with Wang Zhang's name. Either Wang Changfu picked it up, or he had an affair with Wang Zhang."
"Money, women, such a great temptation, it is normal for Wang Changfu to help plan all this. Or, the arrival of the Liu brothers just helped him. Wang Shunzi's family was killed, so all the property of the Wang family, the house, the fields and the livestock all belong to Wang Changfu's family. Wang Changfu is also an old man, and he must not have married yet, so most of these things are his, right?"
After saying what he thought in his heart, Gu Xin looked at Lord Qin.
Lord Qin nodded and pointed out one discrepancy: "According to what the princess said, Wang Changfu and Wang Zhang had an affair, so why did he kill Wang Zhang?"
Gu Xin smiled: "Lord Qin, I didn't say Wang Changfu killed someone. I just said he was an accomplice, and the Liu brothers were the ones who really did it."
"Hahaha..." Lord Qin laughed, "Princess, these three people were arrested this morning. Are you interested in going to the front hall to listen to the trial?"
Gu Xin was stunned, then nodded quickly.
After a while, they arrived at the front hall of the Dali Temple.
Wang Changfu, Liu Da and Liu Er brothers had been arrested.
Liu Da and Liu Er looked even more embarrassed, with unshaven beards, and it was obvious that they hadn't shaved for many days.
Liu Er looked a little better, and Liu Da looked very decadent.
Gu Xin moved a chair and sat next to her. There was something blocking her view, so she could see outside, but outsiders couldn't see her if they didn't pay attention.
This was her first time seeing a trial, and she didn't know the process yet.
After a while, the bailiffs of the Dali Temple brought her tea, snacks and small snacks. Gu Xin thanked them and continued to read.
During the trial, Wang Changfu refused to admit it at first, but then Lord Qin presented the facts and evidence, leaving him no room for argument.
As for the brothers Liu Da and Liu Er, it was Liu Er who spoke all the time. Liu Da did not say a word, just knelt with his head down and trembling.
This matter was roughly the same as Gu Xin's speculation, but there were some small details that Gu Xin did not expect.
Liu Da and Liu Er came to Wangjia Village to pay New Year's greetings to their aunt and gave them many valuable things. They also wanted to test the Wang family's attitude. Liu Er felt that he liked his cousin more and more.
The two had contact with each other. Liu Er often asked people to send Wang Siyun some jewelry and delicious food. Wang Siyun got the things and also kept him hanging, which made Liu Er think that Wang Siyun was interested in him.
In Liu Er's mind, he and Wang Siyun should be in love with each other, but the elders of the Wang family did not want to.
Liu Er asked Wang Shunzi what he thought, and Wang Shunzi just said that if your aunt and cousin agreed, the marriage would be settled.
Liu Er had made a lot of money in recent years, so he was always generous to the Wang family, giving gifts to his cousin and buying things for Wang Siyun's nephews and nieces. In the eyes of the men in the Wang family, this cousin was their future brother-in-law, and they didn't treat him as an outsider at all.
However, Wang Liushi, several wives in the Wang family, and Wang Siyun didn't think so.
