Volume 1 Zhangqiao Iron Coffin Chapter 5 is actually a son-in-law! ?

The so-called story of Chunniang informing on others was naturally fabricated by Xu Zun.
The only thing he remembered was his interaction with Chunniang, not the fact that he had told on Chunniang. That was just an excuse he made up to distance himself from the affair scandal.
well!
Recalling the scenes in my mind, it seems like a dream but it is particularly real.
Xu Zun couldn't help but feel a little emotional. Although he was not a murderer, it was a fact that he had stolen someone else's wife.
I never expected to encounter this situation right at the beginning.
Looking at the cold corpse on the bed, Xu Zun couldn't help feeling a little regretful.
But, that "I" is not the me of today, and has nothing to do with me!
Besides, who knew that You Dalang was so cruel and merciless? A silk and satin shop was ruined just like that!
"Sir," At this time, the head constable Zhao Yu suddenly interrupted Xu Zun's thoughts and said with a fist, "Your method of investigating cases is really brilliant. Why didn't I see it before?"
Xu Zun was a notoriously confused county lieutenant, and he handled this case so brilliantly that it naturally surprised Captain Zhao.
Xu Zun didn't say anything and pretended to be cool.
"Sir, there is one thing I don't understand," Zhao Yu asked again, "I just looked at the victim's wound. Although the wound is located on the left side of the neck and goes straight down, it doesn't mean that the murderer killed with his left hand. Do you think so..."
As he spoke, he used his right hand to make a swinging gesture, and said, "If we stand face to face and chop with our right hand, we can still inflict a wound like that!"
"Yes, that's right!" Xu Zun nodded. "Based on the wound alone, I don't even know whether the murderer was standing in front of or behind the victim, let alone which hand did the chopping!"
"Then..." Zhao Yu was even more curious, "How did you determine that the murderer was left-handed?"
"It's very simple!" Xu Zun replied calmly, "Because You Dalang is left-handed! And I'm not!"
"Ah?" Zhao Yu was shocked. "So... you were trying to trick him!"
"Yes!" Xu Zun admitted, "He is not even good at killing people, so he naturally doesn't know how to do an autopsy. What's wrong with me tricking him?"
"This..." Zhao Yu was secretly shocked and asked hurriedly, "Then...how do you know that You Dalang knocked you out with a hoe?"
"There was rust on the hoe," Xu Zun explained, "and there was rust on the wound on the back of my head."
"Is it... that simple?" Zhao Yu widened his eyes.
"Yes!" Xu Zun said bluntly, "It's basically just a blind guess."
"Then..." Zhao Yu asked again, "Since that shopkeeper You knocked you out with a hoe, why didn't he continue to use the hoe to smash Chunniang to death?
"Also, even if he didn't use a hoe, he could have strangled him to death with his hands! Why did he insist on using a kitchen knife when he knew that he wasn't good with a knife and would end up getting covered in blood?"
Xu Zun had no expression on his face and only answered with three words:
"Look—at—the—head!"
"What? Look at the head?" Zhao Yu touched the back of his head and thought for 3 seconds, then suddenly realized, "Oh... you mean, You Dalang is short and weak, so he can't strangle Chun Niang to death!"
"Not only can we not strangle her to death, we may not even be able to beat her!" Xu Zun said, "After You Dalang knocked me out with his hoe, Chunniang was already alert. If he uses the hoe again, who knows who will be the one to die!"
"Oh..." Zhao Yu understood, "So, after You Dalang knocked you out, he had to stabilize Chunniang first, and then take advantage of her unpreparedness and kill her with a kitchen knife! This... this was planned for a long time!?
"Then, sir," Zhao Yu continued to ask, "If that's the case, why didn't You Dalang kill you as well?"
"Nonsense," Xu Zun replied casually, "If I died, it would be a big deal! If an official of the imperial court died in a silk shop, he would have to be investigated thoroughly. How could he escape?"
"Oh... yes, yes!" Zhao Yu nodded, "In that case, it is safer to put the blame on others! Your Excellency is wise, wise..."
Tsk tsk tsk…
Unexpectedly, Zhao Yu's question made Xu Zun think of something and he immediately fell into deep thought.
According to the rules of time travel, one cannot travel through time unless he dies. Could it be that...that You Dalang really wants to end his own life?
That hoe had actually killed the original County Magistrate Xu?
But……
Xu Zun recalled carefully and soon remembered that after You Dalang kicked the door open, he didn't seem too surprised to see him sitting on the bed.
If he really had killed himself, then he should have been surprised to see that he was still alive, right?
So...
Xu Zun pondered for a long time and felt that You Dalang probably didn't want to kill him, but he didn't control his strength well and hit too hard, killing the previous County Lieutenant Xu, which caused his time travel.
But……
Xu Zun thought carefully and pondered over it again and again. Although this case looked very much like a murder caused by his wife's cheating, for some reason, he still felt that something was not right.
It seemed that there were some unreasonable aspects in this case, and he even faintly smelled a conspiracy.
What's going on?
Xu Zun felt a dull pain at the back of his head and began to wonder if it was because he had been undercover for so many years that he had become a little neurotic?
I had already decided to save his life this time, and now that I have finally cleared myself of the suspicion of murder, should n't I think carefully about a new life plan?
"Well... Sir!" At this time, the head constable Zhao Yu said, "You can go find a doctor to take a look at your injuries first, and leave the crime scene and interrogation to me!
"Don't worry, I will be careful. Our focus is on You Dalang's murder of his wife and the crime of framing you. As for the rest, we will keep it a secret and will never let Miss Shen know!"
oh?
Xu Zun glanced at Zhao Yu and found that this man was indeed smart. What he meant by these words was to tell him that he would ensure that the scandal of his interaction with Chun Niang would not be leaked.
It seems that he had already realized that the so-called denunciation was all made up by Xu Zun.
But what about Miss Shen he was talking about?
As soon as the mind moves, the relevant information is extracted.
After realizing it, Xu Zun was suddenly shocked:
Damn it, how come there is a son-in-law! ?
It turns out that there was a reason why Xu Zun was able to become the county lieutenant.
His future father-in-law turned out to be the former Vice Minister of the Ministry of Justice of the Great Xuan Dynasty—Shen Tiande!
The Vice Minister of the Ministry of Justice is a fourth-rank official with an important position. Although he has now retired and returned to his hometown, he still has roots in the court and his prestige is very high.
Not to mention Xinye County, even in the entire Tangzhou Prefecture, Shen Tiande is a prominent figure and is respected as Mr. Shen.
Both local wealthy businessmen and gentry and bureaucrats at all levels were in awe of him and respected him highly.
Shen Tiande had three sons and one daughter. All three sons served in various provincial governments and held important positions.
And his daughter Shen Qian was betrothed to Xu Zun by Shen Tiande!
It was also because of this that Xu Zun was able to become a county lieutenant at such a young age.
Now that the wedding date has been set, in three months, it will be the time for Xu Zun and Miss Shen to get married.
No way?
Xu Zun was amazed and really admired the courage of County Lieutenant Xu. Such a son-in-law actually dared to steal someone else's wife before the wedding. He was really bold and lustful. Was he crazy?
broken!
Combining his memories, he soon learned that Miss Shen had always looked down on this foolish county lieutenant. If he let her know about the ugly affair between him and Chun Niang, how could he live the rest of his life?
Lieutenant Xu, oh, Lieutenant Xu, you are too mean.
At the very beginning, I was left with such a huge mess. How am I supposed to take over?
