After the man followed the owl back to the princess mansion, he was immediately taken to see Wen Yuan, "Princess Xianyang."
"Well, the owl just told me about you. Now answer whatever I ask you. Don't prevaricate. You have to know that every word you say is very important to me."
Her eyes were intense because this man was the only witness for so many days, and he also participated in dumping the body.
"Yes, the villain must tell everything he knows and tell everything he knows."
This attitude is not bad, and Wen Yuan's expression has softened a lot.
"Did you throw those two female corpses by the river by yourself?"
The man buried his head, "There were two others, but they were probably eliminated by Sheriff Liang... I threw the body and ran away, and they came back to ask for money. Originally, I thought he should wait until the news passed and he would go back. He knows how to be merciful, but I didn’t expect him to be so cruel and ruthless, I’ve done a lot for him!”
His emotions suddenly became excited, and he knelt down in front of Wen Yuan, "I got rid of all those women that Liang Chao played to death before, but this time I didn't expect that they would float when thrown into the water. Feihua City is here."
He thought what he thought, everything he thought about, but luckily he thought about it this time, otherwise when would those women who died in vain see the light of day again.
"You mean, Liang Chao also harmed many women?"
Everyone's eyes were full of horror, and even Wen Yuan heard of such a thing for the first time.
The man nodded awkwardly, "Yes, at least seventeen or eight..."
Wen Yuan frowned, "Seventeen or eight..." She repeated the man's words in a low voice.
No one has exposed such a bad thing to this day. One can imagine how many backers and forces behind Governor Liang are supporting him.
"Do you know who Governor Liang has close contacts with?"
As soon as he heard this, the man understood what Wen Yuan meant, but this was a level beyond his reach. "I really don't know about this. I only know that he has good relations with the adults in other surrounding states."
Wen Yuan had good relations with officials from other surrounding state capitals, which allowed Wen Yuan to grasp the key point.
It seems that she has been able to open up these relationships. Logically speaking, Wen Yuan should not be involved in these matters, but now that the matter is on her territory, she can no longer ignore it.
"Okay, I will send people to find out about these things. Now tell me what you learned."
The man thought for a long time, and everyone around him was holding their breath waiting for him to speak. After a long while, he said, "Liang County Sheriff and his son often share the same woman. But Liang County Sheriff is just a pervert, and Liang Chao is different. He likes to abuse Those women, just like the two girls whose bodies we dumped, were originally imprisoned in the real estate purchased by Liang Chao. There were dungeons and secret rooms in the house. It could be said that they were specially built to satisfy his perverted desires. Yeah, I’ve only been there once.”
It doesn't matter if you've only been there once, as long as you remember the location. Wen Yuan quickly asked someone to write down the location he mentioned.
"When I went there that time, I saw two women who were tortured and bruised. There was not a single piece of land left on their bodies. One of them was not completely dead. In fact, as long as she was treated in time, she could survive. It was County Sheriff Liang who picked up the gun after seeing it. The stone next to her hit her head hard, and the woman finally died."
When he said this, the man who had always been ruthless actually started crying. He wiped the tears on his face and cried to Wen Yuan, "Actually, I really don't want to do this. I have two younger sisters at home who are about the same age as them." Big, every time I see him playing with those girls, I think of my sisters, but I have no money. I have to find a way to make money to support my two sisters and my parents. I can only obey orders, but there is After the first time, there will be a second time, and I really... don’t want to do it again.”
Wen Yuan believed that what he said was true, but as accomplices, they could not escape punishment, but the ending would not be as miserable as the Liang family's father and son.
"You can be considered as having returned from your lost ways. You have provided me with many valuable clues. When the time comes, I will consider reducing your sentence as appropriate. I will also ask someone to take care of you during the days when you are in prison. family."
Hearing that Wen Yuan would take care of his family members, he was so grateful that he kowtowed to Wen Yuan on the ground.
"Then do you know anyone who is related to this matter? The more witnesses we find now, the easier it will be for the Liang family and his son to plead guilty."
This... man hesitated to speak. He seemed to be thinking, but in fact he was weighing. In the end, he decided to trust Wen Yuan for once, "The steward of the county governor's mansion, he knows everything."
The steward of the Sheriff's Mansion...
Those who can be a housekeeper in such a place are not ordinary people, at least they must be the confidants of Governor Liang. Wen Yuan feels that this is a hard nut to crack and looks embarrassed.
The man seemed to know what she was thinking, "Your Highness, everyone has weaknesses, and this butler's weakness is his only daughter."
His daughter? Wen Yuan looked at the man in confusion, "Do you know where this woman is now?"
"I live three miles outside Qingfeng City."
Wen Yuan never wanted to embarrass these unimportant people, but at this time, he had to interrupt.
She quickly brought back the daughter of the steward of the county governor's mansion. She was really a beautiful woman. With such a beautiful appearance, she was not inferior to the ladies in the palace. No wonder the steward wanted to hide her in the palace. Out of town.
The woman still didn't understand why Princess Shunyang had arrested her, so she looked at the people around her with a confused expression, "What are you going to do?"
"Don't be afraid, little girl. Your father works as a housekeeper in the Sheriff's Mansion, right?"
"Yeah...how did you know..." The woman was very cautious. Due to her father's relationship, she knew from an early age that these big shots should not be easily offended.
Wen Yuan didn't want to embarrass her, "You also know about the earth-shattering floating corpse cases in the two cities recently, right?"
"Of course I know. Even the storytellers on the street were talking about it every day."
"Your father is the only one who knows the inside story. I want to avenge those women who died in vain, so we need your help."
The woman was very puzzled as to how she could help her because she had no power. "I don't understand. You have so many subordinates and so much power, but I have nothing. How can I help you?"
"You are your father's heartthrob, so I want to have a scene with you, what do you think?"
Wen Yuan had no intention of hiding everything from her and telling everything. Anyway, she couldn't get out until the truth was revealed, and he was not afraid of her leaking the secret.
Without thinking, the woman agreed to Wen Yuan's words, "Okay, I'll help you. To be honest, every time I hear them say that the two girls died so tragically, I feel heartbroken. Since you really have a way to do it, If they clear up their grievances, I want to do my part.”
Such a girl with a strong sense of justice is very suitable for Wen Yuan.
But at this time, they were taking action, and the people in the county magistrate's office were not idle either.
His secret guard has not returned yet. Sheriff Liang has already guessed all the possibilities. What he is most afraid of is that the secret guard will be killed and the man who knows the truth will be rescued.
While he was in a panic, the secret guard he sent out came in and said, "Master, the matter has been completed. The man can no longer speak."
Sheriff Liang didn't understand the habits of these secret guards, so when he saw that the faces were the same, he believed them without thinking. But in fact, this man was transformed by Xuan Yuan.
Fortunately, Wen Yuan was more skilled and successfully dispelled Governor Liang's doubts. She was also busy preparing for the next thing.
Knowing that Butler Zhang would go out to buy things every other week, Wen Yuan seized this opportunity and had someone take him away by force.
The man didn't understand why at first. It wasn't until he saw his daughter that he looked at Wen Yuan in disbelief and asked, "What on earth do you want to do?!"
"Steward Zhang, I know you know a lot about the Liang family and his son, and I want to make a deal with you..."
Wen Yuan caressed Zhang Qiaoer's delicate face greedily, "You hid her outside Qingfeng City just to prevent something like that from happening for your own purposes, right... Then tell me, if I..."
Without her finishing her words, Butler Zhang already understood what Wen Yuan meant, "What do you want to know from me?"
"Okay, Butler Zhang is also a cheerful person. I want to know now, how many women did Liang Chao kill?"
When Butler Zhang heard this question, he sighed deeply, "Sixteen."
"Sixteen?!" Wen Yuan instantly crushed the tea cup in his hand, "Then why has no one ever checked him?!"
So many beautiful and vivid lives were ruined in his hands!
Wen Yuan was trembling with anger, "Did Sheriff Liang collude with officials from other state capitals?!"
"More than that." The housekeeper has been working with Governor Liang for a long time, so he knows many inside stories that others don't know. "Your Highness, do you know the meaning of darkness under the lamp?"
Dark under the light?
Hearing this, Wen Yuan immediately understood, "Are you saying that there are people at the emperor's feet who are colluding with him?"
"Yes, Governor Liang has won over many officials through bribery and bribery over the years. He even recruited good-looking women to serve as concubines for those adults."
When Wen Yuan heard this, he was so angry that he smashed the things in his hands, "There is such a ridiculous thing!"
Simply unforgivable!
But she soon calmed down and looked at Chunhua with a smile.
Chunhua naturally understood what her lady meant, so she prepared pen and paper and sent them to Wen Yuan.
I saw her writing furiously, immersed herself in writing for a while, and then handed the letter in her hand to Shen Huaiyan, "Thank you for this trip, hurry up."
No one knew what she actually wrote, and no one knew where Shen Huaiyan would send the letter.
After finishing what he was doing, Wen Yuan continued to ask Butler Zhang, "If you know anything else, tell me."
That whole day, Wen Yuan and the people around him listened to Butler Zhang talking about the dirty things that the father and son had done. Zhang Qiaoer on the side even shed tears after hearing this, which shows how many good women the father and son had harmed.
Wen Yuan vowed not to be a human being unless they were eliminated.
