The Famous Detective of the Red Mansion

Chapter 77: The Truth of Being Cuckold and the In-Laws of Wolf and Leopard

Staring at Sun Shaozong, the uneven color on Zhu Hu's face gradually faded away, replaced by a bitter smile of helplessness and admiration.

He reached out his hand to untie the jade clasp and threw it on the round table beside him. He sighed and said, "Brother Sun's name of the “Divine Judgement” was indeed true. I’m willing to bow down."

This was a confession!

There was a loud commotion in the hall, and the man who usually made friends with Zhu Hu stamped his foot and said, "What are you doing, Brother Zhu? Although Zhu Peng has been domineering since he married, he has always believed very much in you. Is it because he has done something wrong to you secretly?"

Zhu Hu shook his head and said with a sad smile, "It's not that he's sorry to me, but that I'm sorry for him. The child in his woman's belly was actually... mine!"

Although he did not say who the "woman" was, who in the audience did not know that it was Minister Wang‘s daughter who was now six or seven months pregnant.

The first child was someone else's child, but he didn't expect that the second child was also someone else's child. Zhu Peng can really be called the leader of the green hat!

The uproar around was even louder. In the chaos, he heard someone scold angrily, "Zhu Hu, you are usually dignified, but I never thought you would make such a beast..."

"I don't want to!"

Zhu Hu burst out a roar and suppressed all the voices of the people. He then smiled bitterly and said, "I have no interest in that woman at all. I was drunk and was dragged into bed by her in a muddle!"

"Since then, I have been worried all day for fear that this matter would be known by my third brother, but the woman seems to be a person who has no fear. She often meets me at home and even secretly provokes me!"

"More than two months later, my third brother suddenly came to me and said... Said that the woman was pregnant with his flesh and blood! At that time, my heart dropped and I secretly asked the woman. It was really the evil seed I planted that day..."

While he was talking, he felt regret, shame, and fear…

All these negative emotions rushed into Zhu Hu's face, making him look like a late manic patient.

When he mentioned Zhu Peng again, he did not call him "my brother" or "third brother.”

"After that, I was even more worried. Until one day, Zhu Peng suddenly thought of the plan of “killing two birds with one stone.” He said that he could not only get Brother Sun's beauty but also take advantage of the opportunity to get rid of two people who were in his way!"

“He even had a plan at that time. If Sun Brother could not find out the “real murderer,” he could take the opportunity to ridicule and suppress Brother Sun and prevent Brother Sun from challenging his dominant position in the same year."

"If Brother Sun finds out about Wang Bingxian and Jiang Yunhe, he can also use Brother Sun's hand to kill them!"

When Wang Bingxian and Jiang Yunhe heard this, they all gnawed their teeth.

Sun Shaozong, however, smiled and interrupted, "Since this is the case, Zhu Peng should have prepared some backers. Otherwise, Wang and Jiang, these two brothers, will certainly have a bad ending, but he will also bear the name of being unkind and unjust."

"We really can't hide anything from Brother Sun."

Zhu Hu said with a wry smile, "Brother Jiang's request of filling the vacancy has already been settled. The copy of the official document of the Ministry of Official Personnel Affairs is now in his hands..."

"What?!”

Jiang Yunhe was shocked and said, "Since the recovery has been completed, then... Why did he still plan to frame me?"

"Brother Jiang."

Zhu Hu shook his head and said helplessly, "It seems that you still don't understand. Zhu Peng doesn't care what you and Brother Wang think at all, let alone whether you can recover. What he cares about is Brother Sun's reputation at the moment!"

"As long as there is a chance to save his face and help you find a job before you die, what’s so difficult for him?"

"Whether or not Brother Sun can find out the “truth,” Zhu Peng is ready to give you the name of “return kindness with ingratitude.”

"As for Brother Wang..."

As he says, he turned his sympathetic eyes to Wang Bingxian, "A few days ago, Zhu Peng took advantage of your drunkenness to ask you to sign your name on a certificate of divorce. The date was just before last year's “election of officials.” This is enough to prove that Brother Wang took the initiative to "sell your wife for glory.”

"This damn son of a bitch!"

Hearing this, Wang Bingxian, who had always seemed a little timid, finally became very angry. He rushed up to "whip the corpse" to vent his anger.

It was clear that there was a group of big men around, but no one had the intention to stop him.

However, when Wang Bingxian rushed to Zhu Peng's body and raised his hand, he paused for a long time. He finally threw up his sleeve angrily and said, "Although he is despicable, I am not going to learn from Wu Zixu!"

There was no doubt that he was greeted by countless contemptuous eyes.

Just because of his true nature of cowardice, the talk of "selling his wife to seek glory" may not have wronged him!

After disdaining Wang Bingxian, Zhu Hu continued, "On that day, Zhu Peng excitedly described this wonderful plan to me, but I only had one idea in my mind. If he was poisoned, I wouldn't need to worry about it again, right? So I made a small addition to his “amazing plan.”

"I originally thought that Wang and Jiang were the two people blocking in front, and Zhu Peng planned to be the one "behind." I was sure that I would be safe in hiding, but I didn't think that I still underestimated Brother Sun's skills. Sigh, it was indeed “the evil we bring on ourselves is the hardest to bear!”

With Zhu Hu's last sigh, the twists and turns of this case were finally fully revealed.

All those involved, whether or not they are excusable, would be punished by law.

The only exception, he’s afraid, was the daughter of Minister Wang…

Incorrect!

.

After this matter, no one in the world would dare to marry her. Reluctance was a punishment.

At least Sun Shaozong thought so at that time, until…

—Dividing Line—

More than four months later, at the temporary martial arts training ground of the Jia Mansion.

"Second Brother, help me!"

Xue Pan rushed to Sun Shaozong agitatedly and cried out in shock, "A matchmaker… Came to my door earlier just now and proposed marriage to me!"

Sun Shaozong stepped half a step back without any trace and frowned, "Is that woman ugly?"

Xue Pan thought carefully, then shook his head vigorously.

"Then why are you in a panic?"

In Sun Shaozong's view, a woman who wanted to marry a notorious double plug like Xue Pan was already a virtue of the Xue family's ancestors. What's more, she’s not ugly.

Xue Pan said anxiously, "But... She’s fated to mourn for her husband's death!"

It turned out to be a second marriage. No wonder this guy was unwilling.

Sun Shaozong lightly patted him on his shoulder and said, "Don't worry, it's all superstition."

At the same time, what he thought in his mind was that the woman had better kill him and help the world get rid of a scourge!

Xue Pan was even more anxious, "But... Other than fated to mourn for her husband’s death, she still has an affair!"

This problem was a little…

Sun Shaozong said, "Which family is she from? With such a reputation, how dare she come to the door to propose marriage?"

Generally speaking, women with such a reputation were either alone or married away from home. How dare they come to the door to propose marriage?

Xue Pan said sadly, "You also know. She is the only daughter of Minister Wang, the official of the Ministry of Official Personnel Affairs!"

What the~

This... This is really a fish looking for fish, a shrimp looking for shrimp, and a turtle looking for a big bastard!
