Zhao Bensan had been frightened just now, and now he was caught by Liu Ruoxin. His body kept shaking and he said in a trembling voice: "Woman, woman, this is not my intention! It's just that my disciple was carried away by greed. Only the mind can do such ridiculous things."
Ouyang pulled Liu Ruoxin over and comforted him, "Don't get angry yet. Let him tell you what's going on."
Zhao Bensan took a breath and sighed: "Well, I was originally a fortune teller walking around the countryside. I just made a living by reading people's palms and testing their marriage luck, but who knew that business has been bad."
Then he looked at his apprentice's body with a sad face and said: "My apprentice turned out to be a little pickpocket. I adopted him when I saw how pitiful he was. But who knew that when he grew up, he would still be a thief and would often sneak around from house to house. You know. One day he came back and told me that he had come up with a great idea to make money."
Looking at everyone's confused expressions, he continued: "That day he broke into a house and happened to see someone raping a woman and killing someone. He came back and told me what the person looked like, and asked me to do it in public and then draw that The portrait of the person was said to be something I saw with my celestial eye. I thought that by catching the murderer in this way, I would also gain fame, and more people would come to me for fortune telling in the future, so I agreed."
Zhu Yipin asked doubtfully: "Isn't that great? Why come to the capital?"
Zhao Bensan said helplessly: "I don't want to either. It's just that my disciple went around asking for information. After asking around, he even found out everything about the county magistrate's embezzlement of the granary. The county magistrate was not willing to give up after he found out. They brought people to hunt us down, and we were forced to come to the capital to join our cousin."
Liu Ruoxin said coldly: "Then why did you frame my adoptive father?"
Zhao Bensan heard this. He quickly denied it and said: "No, no, no, I didn't! You really don't blame me for this! I told Mr. Wang when I saw him that I was a charlatan. But he said it didn't matter. He asked me to use his trick and return it. Duan Yingxiong was executed in front of me, I was really scared and had no choice but to agree to him."
Liu Ruoxin said angrily: "You are still lying, how come I don't know!!"
Ouyang sighed and said, "Ruoxin, do you still remember what I told you last time?"
Yang Yuxuan on the side said: "We are just high-level soldiers."
Liu Ruoxin was silent for a moment. Seeing this, Zhao Bensan continued: "I really didn't lie, I dare to swear! Mr. Wang told me that Duan Yingxiong's case was to shock the government and the public, and then he would ask the emperor to summon me. At that time, I only need to draw the first one on the left Just line up the fat and round-faced father-in-law in purple clothes. I did follow the instructions, but who knew that the kid took advantage of Eunuch Cao of Dongchang and secretly changed my painting."
When Liu Ruoxin heard this, she immediately became angry. She drew her sword and said, "You lied. My adoptive father would not do such a thing. You must have taken Eunuch Cao's benefits and deliberately framed my adoptive father. I will kill you now."
Yang Yuxuan directly drew his sword and swung away Liu Ruoxin's sword, and said coldly: "Now that the truth has been revealed, what else do you want? Eunuch Wang originally initiated this matter, and our factory father just treated him in his own way. It’s just a human body.”
Looking at the two people confronting each other, Ouyang said, "Don't you realize there's something fishy about it? Zhao Bensan, an ordinary person, actually hired someone from Blackstone to kill him. Don't you think it's strange? And what's more, it's Who hired the Blackstone Killer? Don’t you want to investigate?"
Nie Ziyi touched his chin and said: "It's indeed a bit strange. If it were me, I would find a few skilled gangsters to deal with them. Do you need such a big deal?"
Ouyang continued: "And what's the use of killing Zhao Bensan? Can your adoptive father come out?"
Liu Ruoxin lowered the tip of her sword and fell into deep thought.
Nie Ziyi ran to Lei Bin, looked at the steel wire on his body, and smacked his tongue: "Wow, is this the killer of Black Stone? So miserable?" Then he turned around and said with a smile: "Master Ou, you..."
Ouyang rolled his eyes and said, "No! These two are my guests."
Nie Ziyi curled his lips when he heard this.
Seeing this, Ouyang smiled and said: "There will be a generous bounty, and Lao Yang will have half of it."
Nie Ziyi's eyes lit up when he heard this.
"Zhao Bensan, come here!" Ouyang waved and said, "We will escort you out of the capital. Once you leave the capital, you will be safe."
Zhao Bensan was overjoyed when he heard this and quickly saluted: "Thank you, Mr. Ou."
Yang Yuxuan sat down on the coachman's seat and said, "I'm going too." Feeling everyone's gaze, he said proudly, "Since he is an important witness, we cannot let him die."
"In that case, let's go!"
Zhao Bensan looked at the capital that was getting farther and farther away, took a long breath, and swore that he would never step foot inside the capital in this life!
After less than half an hour, the carriage finally left the capital. Looking at the road sign calling for Yizhou, Zhao Bensan cupped his hands and said, "Sir Ou, see you later. If you come to Yizhou in the future, I will sweep up your couch to welcome you."
Ouyang nodded and said, "See you later!"
"See you later!"
Looking at the gradually disappearing carriage, Ouyang and the others turned around and rushed to the hospital.
The two returned to the hospital. Chen Anan glanced at him and said nothing. Zhu Yipin stopped Ou Yang, who was looking around, and said, "Stop looking, Miss Liu has gone back to her room to rest."
Zhao Buzhu came up to him and asked, "Where is my cousin? How is he doing?"
Ouyang said: "He is safe."
"Thank you!" Zhao Buzhu sighed and turned around to continue cutting the medicine.
When he came to the backyard, he knocked on Liu Ruoxin's door. The door opened. Liu Ruoxin said with red eyes: "Ouyang, come in."
Ouyang comforted him: "Don't be sad. I'll go to the prison tonight to take a look. Is there anything you want to bring?"
Liu Ruoxin leaned on Ouyang's shoulder and said, "No, as long as her adoptive father is well." After saying that, she stopped talking. After a while, she realized that Liu Ruoxin had fallen asleep, so she helped her to bed and covered her up. He gently backed out from behind the quilt.
On death row, looking at the moonlight outside the small window, I didn't know what I was thinking.
Ouyang came to the cell and said teasingly: "Master Wang is in such a good mood."
Wang Zhi turned around, saluted immediately and said: "Weak minister, please see King Xiaoyao."
Ouyang waved his hand and said: "Okay, I came here today just to see how Mr. Wang is doing. It seems that there is no need to worry."
Wang Zhi was silent for a moment and then said, "Is Liu'er okay? I was the one who hurt her."
Ouyang said: "Okay, I've seen it. It's time for me to leave. Please cooperate with your brother! I will take care of Ruoxin." After that, he left the death row.
Wang Zhi looked at Ou Yang's back and murmured: "He is indeed the most favored king of the opposite sex in the Ming Dynasty. He is so favored by the emperor." Then he remembered something and suddenly laughed.
The next day, Liu Ruoxin stepped forward and asked, "Ouyang, how are you? Is my adoptive father okay? Has he been tortured?"
Ouyang smiled and said: "Your adoptive father is fine, he is fine now."
Liu Ruoxin finally breathed a sigh of relief after hearing this.
