Chapter 261: Dig Out
Sun Han already knew that he could not catch Yu Liang.
Moreover, Yu Liang never escaped from the clutches of the princess and the prince.
His volunteering at the Lu Ming Banquet made him look like a clown.
The princess was clearly teasing him.
As for why the princess asked about his wife, it is easy to understand.
Once a woman gains power, she always wants to save her own kind.
Sun Han regained his composure and said, "Princess, you have truly misunderstood me. My wife and I have always been in perfect harmony and treated each other with respect. The occasional quarrels we have are always over the children."
He said, "There is no life without quarrels."
He dared to be so fearless because he knew that his wife would never leave him.
Once a person is domesticated, he no longer has the courage to break out of his cocoon and be reborn.
It is undeniable that there are several powerful women in the Nian family, but this does not mean that every woman in the Nian family is powerful.
It’s not easy to turn things around.
"Is that so?" Qu Ling smiled meaningfully. She did not ask any further questions. Instead, she said, "I'm just asking, Lord Sun, don't be nervous."
Sun Han couldn't adapt to the sudden gentle breeze and drizzle.
He was ready for the princess to beat him, but the princess just brushed it off lightly.
This is very wrong.
Sun Han was nervous.
Is there any chance for him to get the position of governor?
Then he was left aside.
Qu Ling neither ordered the yamen runners to investigate the house nor let anyone leave.
About an incense stick of time later, a carriage passed by the door.
There was a sound of something heavy falling.
The bailiffs hurried to see.
"It's the governor...it's Yu Liang, and there's a woman."
Sun Han trotted over, took a closer look, and it was true.
"Your men are very cautious and don't even show their faces." Qu Ling looked at Pei Jingming.
"Spy, spy, if you are exposed, it will be useless." Pei Jingming said with a smile.
Qu Ling didn't ask him where he hid the person.
It's good as long as it's done.
In short, it was a pleasure to cooperate with Pei Jingming in Jiangnan.
"Let me go, I'm not the one you're looking for, you've got the wrong person."
When Yu Liang came in, Qu Ling did not recognize him.
"You are quite ruthless to yourself." Qu Ling looked at the mark on his face and felt a little admiration.
Once you have a household registration and slightly change your appearance, it is indeed very easy to escape.
"I don't know what you are talking about!" Yu Liang tilted his head slightly, not daring to look directly at Qu Ling.
"It doesn't matter if you don't know," Qu Ling turned to the woman beside him, "Are you Zhu Niang?"
The woman was dressed in coarse linen and had a washed-out headscarf on her head. Her face was dirty, but her fair skin and beautiful appearance were still noticeable.
"How old are you?" Qu Ling asked.
Zhu Niang's watery eyes were filled with fear, and she subconsciously hid behind Yu Liang.
Yu Liang didn't expect Qu Ling to find this place.
It must be Li Niang who betrayed him.
Zhu Niang is timid and simple...
"The princess is asking you a question!" Su Shang shouted.
Zhu Niang was so frightened that she was shaking all over and tears were streaming down her face like beads from a broken string.
".....Thirty-nine."
"Yu Liang's wife, Li Niang, is the same age as you, but she looks much older than you." Qu Ling only spoke to Zhu Niang.
"I...I don't know..."
Zhu Niang lowered her head, her voice was as soft as a mosquito, and tears fell down her face.
Yu Liang felt a chill run down his spine. He shifted his body, shielding Zhu Niang behind him, and resigned himself to his fate. "The princess has indeed planned everything. Forcing me to flee was also the princess's plan, right?"
From the moment she checked the files that night, this vicious woman had woven a cage for him from which he could not escape.
Whatever he does is wrong.
The more you do, the more mistakes you make.
He wanted to burn down the warehouse to remove the fuel from the fire.
As a result, the fire could not be started and he was almost burned to death in the official residence.
After escaping death, he was horrified.
Someone was staring at him.
I can't go to the Luming Banquet.
He acted decisively and secretly escaped from the secret door of the governor's mansion in the middle of the night.
Yu Liang even thought that if he was caught as soon as he went out, he would admit it.
Unexpectedly, he ran away with Zhu Niang smoothly.
The joy of escaping death did not last long, as several people fell from the sky and tied him up and threw him into a carriage.
Then we returned to this yard.
It's all in vain.
"Princess, if you want to kill me, just kill me directly. Aren't you tired of going through such a big circle?"
Yu Liang was furious.
"Just killing you would be such a relief."
There was a hint of excitement in Qu Ling's eyes.
"There are good things in your house."
Yu Liang didn't understand.
"Master Sun, take people to dig." Qu Ling gave an order and mentioned a few locations.
Yu Liang's eyes were filled with confusion.
What are you digging?
His money was in this house, but it was all in the storeroom and not hidden in the ground.
Zhu Niang was also puzzled.
After a while, Sun Han came over with a pale face and spoke with a lisp, "Princess, it's dug out, Yue..."
Sun Han was halfway through his words when he tilted his head and vomited all over Yu Liang.
"Are you possessed by a ghost?" Yu Liang's eyes were blazing with fire.
"Master Yu, I still call you Master Yu now, but you are so disgusting. You killed someone and buried him under the bed. What kind of hobby do you have?"
Sun Han remembered what he had seen, covered his mouth and vomited.
"What do you mean buried under the bed?" Yu Liang was confused.
A foul smell came, and the yamen runners covered their mouths and noses and carried out several boxes.
Chi Yuan took out a handkerchief and handed it to Qu Ling.
"What...what is this?"
No matter how stupid Yu Liang was, he could tell something was wrong.
"Why are you pretending to be stupid?" Qu Ling said, "You kept a mistress, and Li Niang also kept a gigolo. You were so angry that you killed him and buried his body in your mistress's house."
Qu Ling's face was filled with disgust. "And it's buried under the bed. Do you think this will make your lovemaking with Zhu Niang more interesting?"
Yu Liang was struck by lightning.
His mind was in a mess and he couldn't digest what Qu Ling said.
What does it mean that Li Niang has a gigolo?
What do you mean he killed someone?
"ah--"
Zhu Niang, who had been like a frightened bird, screamed and shook like a sieve.
"It's Sister Li, it's her!"
Zhu Niang's pupils dilated, revealing extreme fear, "She... made me kneel down... to repair the house..."
She began to speak incoherently and her face flushed abnormally.
"The dead man... is under the bed..."
How could there be a dead person?
How could it be under her bed?
Zhu Niang hugged herself tightly.
It’s cold, so cold.
She laughed crazily, "She's so cruel, she's so cruel..."
Yu Liang finally regained his consciousness and opened his mouth, but no sound came out.
The bailiffs were still carrying boxes out.
Sun Han vomited several times, and when he was done, he endured the nausea and came up to reply, "...a total of four heads, yue..."
He went to the side to vomit again.
"Take the box directly back to the government office and have the coroner perform an autopsy."
Chi Yuan had been in the Dali Temple for a long time, so he was used to such scenes and was very calm about it.
He went to look at the dug-up area and checked the box.
"I sprinkled charcoal on it, then sealed it with lacquer mixed with bone glue. I buried it deep, so you can't smell it."
Those that are built into the walls are thick and far away from the main room, so the smell is not so obvious.
Until the box was opened, the smell...
"This bitch!"
Yu Liang's eyes were red, and a fishy and sweet taste rose in his throat.
"How dare she? She actually hooked up with four people right under my nose."
Qu Ling's face was calm. "You dare to keep a concubine? Why do you expect her to be loyal?"
"How can they be the same!" Yu Liang felt like there was a fire burning in his chest, causing pain in all his internal organs.
"Tsukumi and I..."
Yu Liang was suddenly stunned.
I saw Zhu Niang huddled up with her hands covering her ears, her eyes were vacant, and she was muttering something, looking vaguely crazy.
"I want to see Li Niang," Yu Liang's breath smelled of rust. "When I see Li Niang, I'll tell her everything the princess wants to know."
Qu Ling didn't respond at all.
"I have no interest in your affairs at all."
"Then why did you force me to this point!" Yu Liang collapsed and went crazy, with veins bulging on his neck.
Qu Ling smiled happily, "Who told you not to come to Yangzhou dock to greet me?"
"puff--"
Yu Liang spat out a mouthful of blood, covered his chest with his hands, and his eyes were bloodshot.
Just for this?
So this vicious woman wanted to kill him the moment he set foot in Yangzhou?
"Hahaha....."
Yu Liang looked up to the sky and let out a long cry.
"Then why don't you just kill me instead of teasing me like this!" Yu Liang was shaking with hatred.
Why treat him like a dog?
"People like you have done a lot of bad things. Even if your crimes are exposed and you are sentenced to death, you will have received the promotions you deserve and enjoyed the benefits you deserve. I just feel unwilling to send you to death."
Qu Ling said casually, "I was wondering what could possibly be the cause of your unresolved death? Then I checked, and, eh, I actually found something."
"Your master, the handsome Master Su, always takes advantage of you coming to this courtyard to have sex with your wife, Li Niang..."
"Shut up, shut up!" Yu Liang couldn't stand it anymore and was going crazy.
It turns out...it turns out that Su Fan also betrayed him.
"Look at how furious you are," Qu Ling said with a steady smile, "Have you ever thought about how Li Niang felt back then, just like you do now?"
Yu Liang wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and said, "Even if I become a ghost, I will not let you go."
"There are too many people who would not let me go even if they were ghosts," Qu Ling twirled the Buddhist beads in his hand, "Who do you think you are?"
