 Out of curiosity, King Qi asked people to investigate the follow-up situation of the Zhou family, but he did not expect that this investigation turned out to be a major case.

The maid Qiutong who framed Miss Zhou was actually bought by Li Ze's cousin.

Luckily for Li Ze, it was Miss Zhou's fiancé three years ago, and his cousin is his current wife. The two had an affair for a long time and wanted to be together justifiably, but they were reluctant to bear the glory and wealth of the Zhou family.

Back then, Li Ze was just a little guard without any background, but because of his outstanding ability, he was quite appreciated by Master Zhou.

Mr. Zhou was the confidant of Qin Taishou, and he was also the superintendent at that time, and he could help Li Ze in officialdom.

Between the future and his cousin, Li Ze chose the future, but after all, he was still uneasy, wondering if there is any way to get the best of both worlds?

So Qiu Tong was bought off, and Miss Zhou lost her innocence and fell into madness.

Li Ze knew Mr. Zhou's character very well, so he was resolutely reluctant to break off the marriage, and vowed many times in front of Mr. Zhou that he would take good care of Miss Zhou.

He knew that Master Zhou attached great importance to propriety, integrity, honor, loyalty, filial piety, benevolence, and righteousness, and would definitely not send his crazy daughter to the Li family; he also knew that the more sincere and sincere he behaved, the less Master Zhou would agree to this marriage.

Sending his daughter to harm the Li family, Master Zhou couldn't do such an unconscionable thing.

Then, Li Ze's plan was successful. Master Zhou took the initiative to dissolve the marriage, and because of the guilt in his heart, he worked harder to support Li Ze.

After a year of hard work, his daughter's condition still did not improve, and Mr. Zhou actually resigned from office. But before he left, he gave all his contacts to Li Ze, and now Li Ze has replaced him and became a popular man beside Qin Taishou, and he is about to be promoted to superintendent.

Master Zhou originally only planned to deal with Qiu Tong secretly, but he did not expect that the prince would intervene, and directly arrested Qiu Tong into the prison for strict trial.

Just after a few fights, Qiu Tong confessed to Li Ze's cousin, the current Mrs. Li.

Mrs. Li was only a broken house back then, with both parents dead and no possessions, how could she be able to spend three hundred taels of silver to buy Qiu Tong? Where did her belongings come from? As the ultimate beneficiary, does Li Ze really know nothing about it?

Out of such suspicion, King Qi's subordinates also arrested Li Ze, and after several rounds of torture, the couple couldn't hold back and they all recruited.

Indeed, Miss Zhou was the one who harmed them together, because they both wanted to be together and to gain the power of the Zhou family.

The schemes they set are neither vicious nor subtle, they play with people's hearts.

Upon receiving the news, Master Zhou fainted out of anger, and vomited a few mouthfuls of blood after waking up.

Looking at the file in his hand, Zhuang Li fell into contemplation, and a strong sense of familiarity appeared on the paper.

"This case is related to Zhuang Tian'er," he said firmly.

"How did you see it?" There was no surprise on King Qi's face. He had also investigated Zhuang Tian'er, and naturally knew that this woman was weird and sinister.

"Look carefully at Qiu Tong's confession, especially the part about her driving Miss Zhou crazy." Zhuang Li laid the file on the table and pointed to a paragraph of text.

King Qi lowered his eyes to take a closer look and pondered: "The technique is very sophisticated."

"It's not just so simple. Miss Zhou will go to the main courtyard every morning to greet Mrs. Zhou, and then come back to read, write, and embroider.

" It is Miss Zhou's living habit. But Qiu Tong followed Liu Cui's (cousin Li Ze's cousin)'s order and took medicine in Miss Zhou's breakfast, which made Miss Zhou drowsy. After taking the medicine for seven consecutive days, Miss Zhou naturally developed the habit of going back to sleep after greeting her. "The

more King Qi listened, the more puzzled he became: "Is there any problem with going back to sleep after asking for peace?" "

That's where the problem lies. Zhuang Li pointed at this confession with his fingertips: "Everyone has about five dreams every night. The first four dreams are very short, and most of them occur in the first half of the night. The last dream lasts for three quarters of an hour. And it mostly happens in the morning when people are about to wake up.

"Short dreams are scattered pictures, but long dreams are complete stories, similar to a piece of memory. Therefore, people who fall into long dreams often cannot distinguish between dreams and reality.

"If long dreams are interrupted, try again every quarter of an hour. Falling asleep, the memory of the long dream is still hidden in the brain, and this person is likely to follow the previous dream and have another dream with a coherent plot. So reality and dream become more confused.

"If they are woken up in long dreams every day and then fall asleep later, the person will have more coherent dreams, and will become more and more indistinguishable between dream and reality.

"They think they are awake in the dream, In reality, when you think you are asleep, your mind will gradually become chaotic. This method of confusing dreams and reality is called 'sleep interruption'. Only a professional like me understands this, and ordinary people don't understand the principle at all.

"Qiu Tong forced Miss Zhou to form the habit of going back to sleep. In fact, she was confounding Miss Zhou's ability to distinguish between dreams and reality. Qiu Tong would often beat Miss Zhou's bed at Yin Shi and Mao Shi, and her brain had long been reorganized. The chaotic Miss Zhou naturally believed her nonsense.

"The reason why Miss Zhou is mad has a lot to do with her not being able to tell the difference between dreams and reality. She often takes the ghosts in her dreams as real ghosts. "

Zhuang Li pointed to the information of Qiu Tong and Liu Cui, and said: "So do you see the problem? King

Qi stared at a record on the document, and suddenly realized: "Two women who don't know big characters have no ability to set up such a subtle plan, and they are completely unable to master this kind of trick to play with people's hearts." There must be someone behind them. Zhuang Li tapped his temples, and his eyes became colder: "

I've been thinking about it, and the only person who understands this method is Zhuang Tian'er. King

Qi said immediately, "It must be Zhuang Tian'er. "

It's absolutely impossible for Mr.

Zhuang Li glanced at him with a smile and continued: "Zhuang Tian'er is a helpless person, there must be a reason for her to help Liu Cui frame Miss Zhou. Zhuang Tian'er was not mentioned in Liu Cui's confession. I have a hunch that there are still doubts in this case. I want to see Liu Cui."

"Okay, I'll take you to the prison right away." King Qi agreed, and he set off in a carriage. As for the funeral being held in the mansion, He doesn't care at all.

Civil and military officials came to express their condolences, and he asked the housekeeper to send the people away. He just hung two white lanterns at the door to pretend to be nothing. He even entered the palace on the day he returned to Beijing and changed the jade plate with his own hands.

It stands to reason that the deceased royal family will also leave their names on the jade plate, and King Qi's doing this is equivalent to completely denying the existence of Yun Changrong.

In this regard, the queen mother did not dare to ask, the little emperor was still young, and he would not ask. This matter was settled so easily.

---

The two soon arrived at the cell and met Liu Cui.

With a little guidance from Zhuang Li, Liu Cui woke up from Zhuang Tian'er's hypnosis and remembered the memory that she had forgotten.

"I don't know Zhuang Tian'er, she found me by herself. She said she could help me deal with Miss Zhou, but only if I arranged for her to meet with Gao Feng. Gao Feng is my husband's good brother and often comes to my house. Drinking. As long as the arrangement is right, it is not difficult for him to meet Zhuang Tianer.

"I thought Zhuang Tianer had a crush on Gao Feng, and wanted me to help me get in touch, so I agreed. That day, I took Zhuang Tianer home, dressed as a maid, and asked her to serve the husband and Gao Feng for drinks. On the way, I found an excuse to leave Xiang Gong and let her and Gao Feng stay in the room alone.

"I don't know what they said or did. All I know is that Zhuang Tian'er left after a quarter of an hour, and Gao Feng continued to drink, and it was no different. After that, I got married, and Zhuang Tian'er silenced since then. Extermination has nothing to do with Gao Feng. Master Guan, please forgive me, I know I was wrong!"

Liu Cui shook the cell door and wept bitterly.

But Zhuang Li turned a deaf ear to her cries, patted the dust on his body, and strode out of the dark dungeon.

After getting on the carriage, he looked at King Qi and asked in a low voice, "Who is Gao Feng?"

King Qi lifted the curtain of the car and asked him to check.

The commander of the guards immediately replied: "My lord, don't investigate, this subordinate knows Gao Feng. He is the prince's bodyguard, and he followed the prince to Xishan the day before yesterday. The subordinate will immediately send someone to arrest him.

" Shui's Gao Feng was brought to Zhuang Li.

Seeing the tiredness on the other's face and the dark blue eyes, Zhuang Li already understood that this was another person whose memory was erased by Zhuang Tianer.

Hypnosis can also produce sequelae. If the awakening process is not smooth, the subject will suffer from headache, dizziness, nausea and vomiting, and repeated insomnia. These symptoms are reflected most vividly in Gao Feng.

There is no doubt that he is also a victim of Zhuang Tianer.

Zhuang Li hypnotized Gao Feng again, awakened his memory, and a shocking case was exposed before everyone's eyes. This Gao Feng actually hides another identity.

He used to be a mountain bandit active in Bazhou, and he was also the leader.

In order to infiltrate the capital, he deliberately let his subordinates intercept Yun Changrong, and pretended to just pass by and draw a knife to help him, so as to gain Yun Changrong's trust and become a bodyguard.

The news of the imperial court was continuously introduced into the mountain bandits through him. The 600,000 taels of disaster relief silver will pass through which mountain and which way it will take, is also the news that he inquires.

After his subordinates succeeded, he found an excuse to take leave, quietly came to Bazhou, and invited his subordinates to drink in the name of reward. In fact, he was addicted to the drink. Come on, kill them all.

On the grounds of dividing the spoils, he asked his subordinates to meet in the cave where the silver was hidden. He also drank the wine in the cave. He killed someone to block the entrance of the cave. Since then, only he has known this secret.

The court officials investigating the case could not doubt the personal guards of Prince Qi even if he wanted to break his head.

When the wind passes, he will transfer the 600,000 taels of silver one after another and enjoy it slowly.

But he never imagined that what he did would be seen clearly by Zhuang Tianer, who was hiding near the cave.

At that time, Gao Feng was already red-eyed, his body was covered in blood, and he still had a sharp knife in his hand. Zhuang Tianer didn't dare to go out and meet him. After he left, Zhuang Tianer secretly ran into the cave and found the corpses all over the ground and the 600,000 taels of silver.

If you want to swallow this money, Zhuang Tianer must deal with Gao Feng, and how should Gao Feng deal with it? kill each other? She is a weak woman with no strength, and she has no such ability at all.

Then there was the case of Miss Zhou going mad.

Zhuang Tianer and Liu Cui reached an exchange of interests. After her wish was granted, Liu Cui arranged for her to meet with Gao Feng alone. On this side alone, she erased Gao Feng's memory, and when she said goodbye, Liu Cui's memory was erased.

After that, 600,000 taels of silver became her private property, and no one else knew her secret.

Asking the truth from Gao Feng's mouth, even Zhuang Li couldn't help but admire Zhuang Tian'er.

This ring is buckled, it is really seamless. No wonder Zhuang Tianer was able to marry Yun Changrong smoothly and eventually became the queen. With these 600,000 taels of silver, what is she afraid of? Who can be more confident than her?
