Yan Yuhuan asked someone to remove the screen. He always looked at people through the foggy gauze, how could he see people clearly.
After sitting down, the assassin was pressed up by Yan Qing. Chuntao took two steps forward to identify him carefully. He saw the assassin kneeling on the ground and slowly raised his face.
"Is it you?" Chuntao was shocked when she saw the face clearly.
What he saw before him was clearly a woman's face, with wrinkles all over her forehead and neck due to years of hard work.
Yan Yu leaned on the table with her lips curled up, her posture lazy and casual, and said: "Who am I talking about? It turns out to be Zhao's second wife."
Kneeling in the hall was none other than Zhao Laozhu's second daughter-in-law, Zhao Er's daughter-in-law. On the first day they entered the village, it was this woman who received them. Zhao Er did not show up at that time. Instead, it was Boss Zhao who took Zhao Er with him. While his daughter-in-law, Mrs. Sun, was busy, Yan Yuhuan felt that something was wrong.
Mrs. Sun held her thighs with both hands, her shoulders hunched tightly, and she said with trembling breath: "It's me...it's me..."
Typical fear and nervousness.
Yan Yuhuan propped her chin up and looked at Mr. Sun, her brows slightly lowered, and asked, "You are a peasant woman who spends her days drying salt and spinning cloth in the salt village. Over the years, your wrists may have been seriously damaged?"
Mrs. Sun nodded subconsciously, and then as if she had come to her senses, she immediately shook her head and stumbled: "No, no, my husband treats me very well, and I don't need to do any work..."
Sun's eyes dodge and her voice becomes softer and softer. Anyone with a discerning eye can see Sun's guilty conscience.
Chuntao stepped forward and grabbed Sun's hand. Sun struggled suddenly, but was pinned down by Yan Qing. Chuntao spread Sun's hand and found that it was covered with calluses and scars, and there were also scars on her wrists. Visible wear and deformation.
Yan Yuhuan stood up and walked forward, squatting in front of Sun and holding Sun's hand tightly, looking at the marks on his palm and the slightly trembling wrist.
Yan Yuhuan's eyes were cold and he said: "A pair of hands like this can swing a concealed weapon, can it hit the right person?"
Nervously and excitedly, Mrs. Sun pulled out her hand with all her strength, holding it tightly and hiding it under her sleeve.
Yan Yu was pleased to see that he remained silent, and slowly stood up and said, "Since you don't want to say who it is, I might as well make a bold guess."
"In this village, there are only a few tenants who have a life-and-death grudge against Zhao Er, but the one with the deepest grudge is only one."
Chuntao took out a brochure from the back room and handed it to Yan Yuhuan. Yan Yuhuan opened the brochure and walked around Sun and said: "Two years ago, Zhao Laozhu secretly increased the bank's banknotes, so Zhao Er put usury money on Zhuangzi to earn interest. The tenants were tempted to borrow money to pay the rent with low benefits, and the interest compounded more and more. The two families in Zhuangzi couldn't pay back the money, so Zhao Er snatched their daughters, humiliated and raped them, resulting in two flower-like girls. Girls, one is dead and the other is crazy. Four years ago, Zhao Er forced the renter to levy the rent and took away the life-saving money from the mother of Sun Quan, a tenant on the farm. The old woman was seriously ill and died. Five years ago, Zhao Er was drunk and raped Sun Quan again. My daughter, I married her back afterwards..."
Sun's expression was despairing and sluggish when he heard this, and his eyes were red with anger and filled with blood and tears, and they fell one after another down his eyes.
"Stop reading it... Stop reading it!!" Mrs. Sun covered her ears and roared. These nightmares that had happened before were still vivid in her mind and had never dissipated, torturing her and eating away at her every moment.
Yan Yuhuan closed the book and walked to Mrs. Sun, looking down at the petite and broken body.
"Miss Sun, you only have this one chance now."
Sun's eyes suddenly widened. She raised her head and grabbed Yan Yuhuan's dress. She burst into tears and said, "The princess knows it! He is not an assassin. He has never thought of harming the princess! He is not an assassin. He just wants revenge. He just wants to help me." Revenge!"
Yan Yu sighed happily and said: "Since you are not an assassin, why should you take the blame? Silly girl, don't you understand? What that person wants to avenge is not your revenge, but his own revenge!"
Mrs. Sun fell at Yan Yuhuan's feet and cried bitterly, her eyes full of despair and grief.
"What can I do...What else can I do! Even if I know that he is not all for me, but I am a weak woman with nothing to offer, how can I take revenge!? I can only rely on men, I can only rely on With a man, the princess..."
Sun raised her head and looked up at Yan Yuhuan, with painful tears covering her self-deprecating face.
"I don't have a life as good as yours, to be born into a wealthy prince's family. I can only take revenge in my own way. I just want justice!"
Suddenly, a voice came from the door: "I twisted his tongue."
Yan Yuhuan raised his head and looked up. Zhao Da walked in with his head held high and his steps firm. He knelt on the ground upright and cupped his hands and said: "Princess, I was the one who released the six-edged flying knife last night. I also personally killed my father last night." Sent to the West, all of this has nothing to do with the Sun family, so please keep an eye on it, Princess."
Yan Yuhuan's heart trembled when he heard this. What kind of hatred can make a person so cruel as to kill his own father.
"Did you know that admitting to these crimes is a serious crime of beheading?"
Zhao Da smiled in relief: "My slave has long since ceased to live. In this life of inferiority to pigs and dogs, living is just a day of suffering. It would be better to die happily. At least the people I hate have been executed by my own hands."
Yan Yuhuan asked in a deep voice: "Why? One of them is your biological father, and the other is a sibling brother. What kind of hatred can make you kill him so painfully?"
Zhao Da laughed self-deprecatingly: "Father? Brother? They have never regarded me as their own brother or sister. My father has always disliked me since I was a child, and I am useless. I am not as good as my second brother who can do things for him and please him, so he has never beaten me." Even if you scold me, even my younger brother can ride on my head and use me like an animal! I have been tolerant to him since I was a child, giving him all the good food and fun, but in the end, what is the result? Even...even my beloved girl, he wants to snatch her away!"
When Yan Yuhuan heard this, he understood completely.
"The girl you love is Mrs. Sun?"
Zhao Da slowly looked at Mrs. Sun beside him, and said with a trembling voice with tears in his eyes: "Yes, Fen'er and I have been childhood sweethearts since childhood. We have a very close friendship. She is the most important person to me in this world. In this Zhuangzi, she is the only one." She is the only one who loves me sincerely, but that bastard Zhao Er! He actually... defiled Fen'er and forced her to marry her back! Princess, how can I not hate you? You let me How can I endure it any longer!"
Yan Yu happily looked at Sun's grief and Zhao Da's determination. After all, he still couldn't bear it. He felt indignant for Sun, and even more felt sorry for the tenants of the village. They had been humiliated and tortured by Zhao's father and son over the years. His family was ruined and his wife was dead. Ions disperse.
Yan Yuhuan closed her eyes, threw the booklet on the ground, turned around and said: "This princess will treat this book as if she has never seen it before. Murder must be punished with life. This princess cannot protect you, but I can help you protect the Sun family. You yourself Choose.”
In fact, there is no way to choose, and Zhao Da understands this better than anyone else.
"Thank you for your great kindness, Princess. I will repay you to the Princess as a cow or a horse in the next life."
Zhao Da kowtowed, slowly closed his eyes, and shed tears of relief on the ground.
