Wei Fu went to the bookstore with a frown on her face. When she arrived at the bookstore, she also asked the officials to notify the old couple who sold tofu.
The owner of the bookstore was very surprised to see Wei Fu. He didn't understand why Wei Fu came to their shop since their family had not done anything wrong!
He had also heard about the recent movements in the city. If the police came to their house, it would mean that something had happened or something had happened to their family.
But on the night of the accident, there was no dead body crawling out of their house!
Although the bookstore manager was puzzled, he politely greeted Wei Fu and asked, "I wonder why the princess has come here?"
Wei Fu held up his little notebook and said, "The Huang family, who sell tofu in the west of the city, have come to the government office to file a complaint, alleging that your son, Zhao Qin, raped and murdered their daughter."
The bookstore owner was horrified: "My Lady, please understand! My son has always been a well-behaved man. How could he do such a thing?"
He subconsciously defended his son, but suddenly he remembered that he saw a woman struggling with his son on the street a few years ago, and he felt a chill all over his body.
Could it be...
His expression changed drastically, and he said to the shop assistant, "Go and call the young master over."
Soon, Zhao Qin arrived. Before Zhao Qin arrived, the old couple of the Huang family also came, as well as the eldest brother and sister-in-law of the murdered woman. After seeing Wei Fu, the four of them burst into tears and complained about how hardworking and simple their daughter/sister/sister-in-law were, but because they were pretty and the murdered woman liked scholars since she was a child, she was deceived by Zhao Qin.
Zhao Qin's family owned a bookstore, and the shopkeeper, Zhao, was also a scholar, a student, so he sent Zhao Qin to school when he was young.
Zhao Qin now has the title of scholar.
In the eyes of those who know him, being a scholar at such a young age means he has a bright future.
When Wei Fu came over, there were already many onlookers around. When they heard what the Huang family said, they started cursing Zhao Qin.
Not only did he deceive the woman, he even raped her and killed her. He is simply the worst of scumbags.
Some even said, "Come to think of it, I once saw Mr. Zhao and the girl from the Huang family fighting under the willow tree by the river."
"Princess, my family sells jewelry. Mr. Zhao once bought a hairpin in my shop, and then I found that hairpin was worn on the head of the Huang family's daughter."
Before Mr. Zhao came over, Manager Zhao was so shaken after hearing this that he was about to collapse.
He never knew about these things, nor did he know which woman his son was involved with.
Wei Fu just listened to what they said without expressing her opinion. When she saw Zhao Qin coming over, she knew that Zhao Qin was not the murderer.
The aura of Zhao Qin was so pure that she didn't need to look carefully to know that such a person would not kill anyone.
Someone who has killed someone wouldn't have such a clean aura.
Especially this clean scent can make her feel comfortable.
But she couldn't say that, because solving a case requires evidence.
After Zhao Qin came over, Wei Fu put on a stern face and said sternly, "Zhao Qin, the Huang family is suing you for deceiving, raping and murdering their daughter. Is this true?"
Zhao Qin looked at the people from the Huang family. Their eyes dodged for a moment, but soon became vicious and determined.
The eldest sister-in-law of the Huang family even cursed: "You damn it, you killed my aunt, you won't deny it!"
Zhao Qin retracted his gaze, lowered his head and said to Wei Fu, "This is the truth."
As soon as he finished speaking, there was an uproar in the crowd.
Although everyone had just heard what the Huang family said, those who knew Zhao Qin still felt that Zhao Qin would not be that kind of person.
When Shopkeeper Zhao heard Zhao Qin's confession, he was so angry that he almost fainted. He said angrily: "You evil son, why did you kill the girl from the Huang family!"
"Before, your mother and I asked you if you wanted to get married, and you said you would wait until you passed the imperial examination before getting married. But why did you go and trick and kill a girl?"
Shopkeeper Zhao had absolutely no idea what his son was thinking.
With their family's financial situation, they can take the girl from the Huang family as a concubine. If their son really likes her and wants to marry her, as long as she has good character, even if her family background is not very good, they will not object.
Zhao Qin knelt down heavily and kowtowed to Shopkeeper Zhao: "I am ashamed of your teachings."
Wei Fu frowned. What was going on with this Zhao Qin?
She looked at the Huang family and opened the small notebook where she had made her previous records.
Ask Zhao Qin: "How did you get to know Miss Huang? When did you meet her? When did you start to have evil intentions towards her?"
Zhao Qin's eyes were empty. "I met her the day after I passed the imperial examination and held a banquet at home. We had a banquet and bought tofu from the Huang family shop. She and her eldest brother and sister-in-law came to deliver the tofu. I happened to pass by at that time and saw her appearance, and my heart was moved."
"How did you seduce, rape and kill Miss Huang?" Wei Fu, a little girl, said such words with a stern face, which made everyone feel very uncomfortable.
But he inexplicably felt that she was very majestic and did not dare to act rashly.
"After I accidentally saw Miss Huang that day, I had an idea. But I'm a scholar, and she's just the daughter of a tofu seller. I have a bright future, but I don't want to miss her. I don't want to marry her and take away the reputation of being a wife, and I don't want to take a concubine without a wife. So I often go to West City and run into her. One time, she was being harassed by some hooligans, and I took my servant to help her. That's how we met."
"Then I would buy her little gifts from time to time, and after a while, she started to like me. But she was a reserved girl. Although she liked me, she didn't want to cross the line with me. Instead, she asked me to go to their house to propose marriage, and only let me touch her after the marriage. I never thought of marrying her, so I coaxed her to a temple and drugged her tea. When she woke up, she realized she had lost her virginity and wanted to fight me to the death. I accidentally killed her."
"You killed her in the temple, why did you bury her body under the willow tree west of the city?"
Zhao Qin said, "Because that's where we expressed our feelings to each other. I buried her wherever she liked."
Wei Fu nodded, indicating that she understood. She then looked at the Huang family members and asked, "How did you know that Miss Huang was killed by Zhao Qin?"
The eldest sister-in-law of the Huang family cried and said, "We didn't know about it until that night when my sister-in-law crawled out from under the willow tree. Our house is very close to the willow tree. The next day, when we went out, we saw my sister-in-law's body. We also saw Master Zhao coming to rebury my sister-in-law and caught him in the act."
"After I married into the family, I have always had a good relationship with my sister-in-law. No one in the family knew about her secret relationship with Mr. Zhao, but she did tell me about it."
