Chapter 718 I should just feed you to the dogs!

The rest of the Zou family were also in a miserable state.

The third daughter of the Zou family was raped by the bandits, chopped twice, and thrown into the fire. When she was rescued by the Sun family, she was naked. She was still alive, and the Sun family girl spent more than half an hour to pull her back from the brink of death.

The old man of the Zou family was stabbed three times. Although he was lucky enough to avoid vital parts, he was in a bad condition because he inhaled too much smoke.

The one who was least injured was Zou Wanshi, who just inhaled too much smoke and fainted. When she was rescued from the fire by her Sun family, she woke up and heard about the tragic death of her two sons. She screamed and collapsed and fainted.

When Zou Wan woke up again, tears of blood almost came out of her eyes, and she insisted that the disaster was caused by Princess Fusui!

——That’s why Shuntian Prefecture sent someone to ask some questions.

Xingxing was a princess personally appointed by the emperor, and was loved by Emperor Jiazheng and Empress Nie. How could the Shuntian Prefecture dare to arrest Princess Fusui and take her to the lobby just because someone pointed out something?

Xing Xing was speechless for a moment when she heard about the tragedy of the Zou family.

The Shuntian Prefecture's yamen runners said respectfully: "Princess, we are here to question you just to follow the procedure, and we have no intention of being disrespectful..."

As soon as he finished speaking, he heard Xing Xing say, "I'll go with you guys."

The yamen runner was almost overwhelmed by the flattery: "No, no, no, there is no need..."

Xing Xing shook her head: "It's okay, I want to go and take a look too."

The yamen runner took Xingxing to Shuntian Prefecture as if she were a young lady.

Sun Qiyi was chatting with the coroner. When he turned around and saw Xingxing coming, he was slightly surprised. He came forward, blocking the charred corpses on the ground behind him so as not to scare Xingxing, and asked, "Why is the princess here?"

Judging from Sun Qiyi's expression, she must have heard about Zou Wan's accusation of Xing Xing. She softly reminded him, not agreeing, "If the princess treats this kind of unfounded accusation like this, won't there be a lot of trouble in the future?"

Xing Xing shook her head: "It's okay. We did have some other connections, so I came here."

Sun Qiyi stopped trying to persuade him.

Xingxing went to look behind Sun Qiyi.

It is not quite appropriate to say that those bodies were charred. The servants of the Sun family were very helpful and snatched the bodies out of the fire. The identities of these bodies could still be barely identified.

A corpse was found with its body bent into a bow shape and all its hair burned off by fire. However, the servants of the Zou Mansion recognized that it was Old Madam Zou from her face which was half burned black.

The other corpse was still small, probably a child. Its face was burned so badly that it was unrecognizable, but it had six fingers. After being identified by the servants of Zou Mansion, it was found to be the frail and sickly six-year-old young master of Zou Mansion.

There was another corpse. Although a large area of ​​its back was burnt, the bloody appearance could still be seen. In addition, the charred face could still be recognized, confirming that the corpse was Zou Wan's beloved son, Zou Minglei.

There were two other bodies, which were servants of the Zou Mansion.

Xingxing looked at them one by one.

Zou Wanshi woke up at some point and rushed into the government office, her eyes bloodshot. She got a knife from somewhere and chopped at Xingxing with both hands: "You bastard, you deserve to be cut into pieces! I'll kill you--"

Xing Xing was accompanied by guards. There was no way the guards would allow a crazy woman to get close to their princess. They simply drew their swords to block the other party's random attack, and when the opportunity arose, they kicked the person out.

The yamen runners of Shuntian Prefecture quickly surrounded Zou Wanshi who had fallen out, snatched the knife from her hand, and acted as if they were facing a powerful enemy.

This was a gross dereliction of duty on their part.

If Zou Wan really hurt the princess in Shuntian Prefecture, they would all be held responsible and would not get away with anything good.

Zou Wanshi was kicked to the ground, but she was like a mad dog, ignoring the obstruction of the yamen runners around her, and rushed towards Xingxing like a madman: "I will kill you! I will kill you!"

Zou Wanshi's voice was still hoarse from being smoked.

Xingxing frowned.

The yamen runners would not give Zou Wanshi any chance to get close to Xing Xing. They restrained Zou Wanshi forcefully, and she could not escape. She cried miserably, "It was her. She must have ordered someone to kill my Ming Lei. It was her!"

None of the yamen runners took Zou Wan's words seriously, and some even sneered at them.

But because someone under the emperor of the capital city could do such a cruel thing, killing people and then setting fire, obviously aiming to kill the whole family, it really shocked the whole capital city.

The governor of Shuntian Prefecture attached great importance to it.

The case was brought to court not long afterward to conduct a preliminary review and investigation.

Zou Wan kowtowed until her forehead bled, and she cried until she almost fainted: "Sir, please make a decision for us - this Princess Fusui killed my whole family!"

Both of her sons died in the fire, and all her hopes for the rest of her life were gone!

Shuntian prefectural governor slammed the wooden post in shock and said, "How dare you! Princess Fusui was personally conferred the title by His Majesty, how can you just make false accusations against her?! Since you keep saying that this tragic case was committed by the princess, do you have any evidence?"

As he said this, Shuntian Prefecture Governor glanced at Xingxing subconsciously.

Xingxing is the princess of the current dynasty, so naturally she would not kneel in the hall waiting to be summoned.

She sat in a chair at the side, looking very calm.

Zou Wanshi knelt in the hall, with blood all over her head, and cried, "Your Excellency, you don't know, that bastard..."

"How dare you!" The prefect of Shuntian Prefecture slammed the wooden pole again and shouted, "Before Your Majesty stripped the princess of her title, she was a princess of our dynasty with a noble status! How can you insult me ​​with your words! Zou Wanshi, considering that you have been in a sudden disaster and are unconscious, I will not pursue the matter this time. If you do it again, you will be beaten with ten boards first!"

Zou Wan took a deep breath and said, "Yes, sir, I will pay attention to it."

Shuntian Prefecture Governor hummed, then said, "You said earlier that the princess had your entire family exterminated. Do you have any evidence?"

Zou Wan's eyes were filled with deep hatred, and she said hurriedly: "Your Excellency! My son was careless with his words yesterday and offended the princess, and he was killed that night! Your Excellency, we, the Zou family, have just arrived in the capital, and except for the princess, we can say that we have no grudges or grievances with anyone. In other words, except for the princess, who else would attack us?! This must have been done by Princess Fusui!"

Tears of blood flowed from Zou Wan's eyes.

Shuntian Prefecture Governor asked: "Besides that, are there any witnesses or physical evidence?"

Zou Wan cried, "My son, who offended Princess Fusui, has turned into a charred corpse and died tragically in the fire. Isn't this enough as evidence?"

Shuntian prefect looked at Xingxing with some embarrassment: "Princess, did you really have a conflict with the Zou family?"

Xing Xing said calmly: "It's not a conflict, it's the other party who unilaterally offended me. I ignored it and just left."

Before the Shuntian prefect could say anything, Zou Wanshi cried out in agony: "Look, sir, she has admitted it herself! She said my son offended her! My son was beaten with 20 sticks because of her a few days ago, how could he offend her again!"

The governor of Shuntian Prefecture was a little hesitant for a moment.

After all, judging from the results of the on-site investigation, the Zou family members did seem to have died in a revenge murder.

Unfortunately, when the Sun family servants came to help, they focused on saving people. The bandits thought that all the Zou family members were dead, so those who could escape ran away.

Two people who were left alone died in the fire while fighting with Sun's servants.

There is no other explanation for this situation except revenge killing.

Zou Wan said that they had just arrived in the capital. Shuntian prefect had previously retrieved the entry records from the city gate. It was true as Zou Wan said that they had just arrived in the capital not long ago. In this case, the probability that they had such an enemy who could destroy the whole family with just one move was not very high...

The prefect of Shuntian Prefecture felt a tingling sensation in his heart. It couldn't be that Princess Fusui had someone do it, right?

The prefect of Shuntian looked at Xingxing with some embarrassment.

Sun Qiyi stood up and clasped his hands, saying, "Sir, I have a different opinion."

Shuntian Prefecture Governor knew that Sun Qiyi had some skills, and his eyes lit up: "What do you think, Doctor Sun?"

Sun Qiyi pointed at the wounds on the bodies and said, "These dead people were injured to varying degrees before they died. The wounds were of a special shape, and were slightly turned up, which clearly showed that some flesh and blood was pulled out when the weapon was pulled out. Such wounds were most likely caused by a weapon with a wide blade and barbs. Such weapons were too vicious, so our dynasty passed a law to stop using them in the early days of its establishment. It is really puzzling where these people's weapons came from... In addition, I also saw the weapons used by the princess's guards just now. They were ordinary swords, which did not match the wounds on the bodies."

The prefect of Shuntian listened thoughtfully and nodded repeatedly.

Zou Wanshi disagreed and shouted, "It's possible that they changed their weapons on purpose because they were afraid that others would recognize them! Who would use such a strange weapon unless they were deliberately misleading people? This must be her conspiracy!"

Sun Qiyi raised his eyebrows and smiled, but did not argue with Zou Wanshi. He just looked at the prefect of Shuntian Prefecture, knelt down and saluted to indicate that he had finished speaking, and stepped aside.

Zou Wanshi was getting anxious and she shouted at Xing Xing: "Did you...did you already know about it? That's why you prepared so many people and weapons so early, just to kill us to vent your anger?!"

The prefect of Shuntian Prefecture was confused when he heard this: "Zou Wanshi! What nonsense are you talking about again!"

Xing Xing looked at Zou Wanshi calmly: "You know very well what you did to me back then, so you think I will seek revenge on you, right?"

Zou Wanshi shuddered!

She heard it, this bastard, he really knew it a long time ago!

"It's her, it's her!" Zou Wan shouted at the top of her lungs, "She even remembered everything! And she's still pretending not to know us! It's her!"

Zou Wanshi let out a series of roars.

This time, Xingxing was accompanied by her sisters-in-law Li Chunhua and Bai Xiaofeng, who were in charge of the family's financial affairs.

Because Mrs. Wei went to bed late last night, she woke up late this morning. When the yamen runners came to her house, Mrs. Wei was not awake yet.

Li Chunhua and Bai Xiaofeng, the two daughters-in-law, wanted to let their mother-in-law sleep a little longer, but were afraid that Xingxing would suffer, so they followed along without telling Mrs. Wei.

At this moment, everyone was confused after hearing the conversation between Xingxing and Zou Wanshi.

Not to mention the Shuntian prefect.

He was becoming more and more confused. The conversation didn't make sense. What was going on?

At this moment, a man came out from the side, kneeling on the ground, with half of his face wrapped in cloth. His body was covered with medicine for burns, and he looked extremely miserable.

The bailiff was also frightened, so he let the man rush into the court and kneel down.

When they came to their senses and were startled, and wanted to pull the person away, the person had already introduced himself in a hoarse voice: "Sir, I am Zou Pingping, the third daughter of the Zou family. I have also come to accuse Princess Fusui. First, let someone destroy my innocence, and then let someone kill my whole family!"

She raised her head, the half of her face that was exposed was somewhat blackened by smoke, and she said sadly: "...When those thieves were bullying me, I heard them say..."

Zou Pingping cried, "They said that the master this time was really cruel. Not only did they destroy this woman's innocence, they also wanted to kill and burn people. I don't know how they offended the master this time!... They, they are the bandits who dragged me into the forest and humiliated me on the White Horse Temple mountain road before!"

Xing Xing's eyes darkened slightly when she heard this.

Zou Wanshi was about to come up and beat Xingxing again, crying, "I'm going to beat you to death! I shouldn't have been so soft-hearted at the time. I shouldn't have thrown you into the river. I should have fed you to the dogs directly! How could you be so vicious!"

The Shuntian prefect was stunned!

What the hell is going on!

When Li Chunhua and Bai Xiaofeng heard this, their blood almost rushed back!

Throw it into the river?! Feed it to the dogs?!

Could it be that these are Xing Xing's biological parents who cruelly threw her into the river? !

Li Chunhua and Bai Xiaofeng stared at Zou Wanshi, wishing they could eat her alive!

Xing Xing said, "Since you also know that it was you who threw me into the river, and you think I am here to seek revenge, then let me ask you, why did I go to the trouble of destroying Zou Pingping before I killed your whole family? Before this, Zou Pingping and I did not know each other at all. Why would I let someone risk causing trouble and harm Zou Pingping at this juncture?"

The prefect of Shuntian felt as if he had caught something big.

But he also felt that what Xingxing said later made sense.

Just as he was about to interrogate him in more detail, someone came hurriedly from outside to report that the old couple of Duke Xin had arrived.

The Duke Xin and his wife were legendary figures in the capital. The prefect of Shuntian was surprised. Although he didn't understand what the two old ancestors were doing there, he knew that he must not neglect them, so he hurriedly stood up to greet them.

At this moment, Duke Xin and his wife were almost rushing over in a hurry, coming here in great anxiety.

——Only after listening to the report from the spies did they realize that such a shocking event had happened in the Zou family.

Just when they wanted to find out more, they were shocked to hear that Zou Wan had gone crazy and was biting Xing Xing, saying that Xing Xing had someone do it!

And when they heard it, Xing Xing had already followed the Shuntian Prefecture's yamen runners to the government office!

But the old couple was so distressed that they didn't care about anything else and ran to Shuntianfu immediately.

Half of Zou's family died, and it's unknown whether the rest can survive. Although old Duke Xin knows that there is still a circle of people missing who replaced the baby girl, he can't care about anything else at the moment!

The old couple of Duke Xin were simply rushing over here while cursing the Zou family a thousand times in their hearts!

The Zou family deserves death!
